Changing display densiy on the fly with terminal emulator
Changing display densiy on the fly with terminal emulator
Everything to small or to big for your taste? Don't want to edit your build.prop and reboot over and over again?
1. Install a terminal emulator app
2. type "su"
3. type "am display-density" followed by desired ppi
Example to make everything the same size on 1080p as it is on 720p:
am display-density 240/
Remember - default is usually 160 ppi @ 720p on mk808/b and most tv sticks
Type "am" to see your options for other stuff... "pm" is also very interesting...
FYI "am display-size 1080x1920" does not change the actual resolution to 1080p - just makes it look like it... Blurred...
Enjoy
good stuff, worked good for my icons anyway. i'm testing a rom that seems to have oversized everything. this fixed the icon placement but how can i make the mouse pointer and status bar smaller?
Typing "am" does not work.
