Thanks Bala, your work is really great. Will be excited to see all the apps running fine on 320 dpi.. Just wondering how u managed to do that I would help if I could. Thanks again!

HI Bala, is there anyway to roll back the dpi lockscreen mod?

Thanks
yes you can roll back anytime, you original apk is auto backed to "mode backup" folder in your sdcard ;)

Great to see multi DPI Support thanks for your work on this. I have a quick question... anyone know if we can have more icons on the bottom of the launcher (Atm it is Phone Contacts Messaging Internet Apps) Also these are locked and cannot be moved on my stock rom. is this a build.prop change also ? Thanks!
we have to edit the whole launcher to add extra icons on touchwiz home, will look into it when i put my hands on that apk :)

Thanks for that Bala, you're awesome. My i9505 is running at 320 now. Awesome HD feel. Hopefully camera fix will be out soon! Thanks again Bala

camera is easily fixable via xposed framework, but it totally spoils the fun of 320 DPI, working on camera and most of the item is fixed, if all goes well ill release it tonight
Thats uber good news mate. I tried to figure out myself on the calculator apk but it seems like i need to read more about it. Extracted with apktool and studying the xml one by one..

there's a problem with gallery running at 320 dpi. it's cut off at the bottom and right side of the screen, so that it's not showing all pictures.
tried installing xposed framework but the phone stucks in bootloop.
anyone could help?

"life companion" caption on lockscreen gets cut off as well

cheers

What I did was change system dpi to 380 in build.prop. Then installed xposed and changed all the apps with issues back to the original 480 dpi. Works perfect.

Thats what I did as well but im at 320. Shocked the keyboard already works at every level.

Will install the modified apks when they are all done. Looking forward to that. Nice work bala_gamer.

Spent the whole day fixing the camera apk.. Damn the camera can be easily changed to work with stock dpi using xposed but then there is no point in changing the dpi:D

Will upload att Dialer and modded camera tomorrow morning :):)

Bala is the att dialer and 9505 different? Can you upload both apks? Att has the white dialpad. Love the black dialpad international s4's got.

Hey there,
Just tried to Flash the camera fix through CWM and it flashes ok. But the camera app dpi hasn't changed. Anything I may be doing wrong?
