[FIXED] Google Calendar crashes when you click on an event

[htr5]

For two years, I have scratched my head at why my Google calendar app would crash when I clicked on an event. Reinstalling, clearing data and clearing cache didn't help and I wasn't able find anything on the Internet.

After looking at a log using the OS Monitor app, I spotted the following message that I will paste for anyone Google-ing:

The problem was that I had adjusted the DPI on my device. To stop the crashes, return your DPI to the default value. You can also set a custom value just for the calender app with the 'App Settings' Xposed module. So for the LG G4, I set the DPI value back to 640 just for this app.
