"1080P LCD resolution:
In the Imito stock 1080P ROM Imito edited build.prop and changes LCD Density to 240.
This is so the icons and fonts are not so small on 1080.
I have edited this BACK to 160. Why?
1) Many apps may not work at 240 density!
2) If you flash the 720 kernel things will be all messed up at 240 density! It must be 160 for 720P.
If you want the larger icons and text AND your using the 1080 kernel you can easily edit this back to 240.
Since you are rooted you can edit /system/build.prop and change this.
I have commented all my tweaks in build.prop file so you can easily find these.
I commented out the 240 line and added a 160 line
ro.sf.lcd_density=160
#ro.sf.lcd_density=240
To change it, go get ES File Explorer from Google Play.
Make sure to enable root explorer in ES File manager settings first!
Go into the system folder and open the build.prop file using ES file editor.
Remove the # in front of the 240 line and add a # in fron of the 160 line.
save the file
reboot.
You will now have 240 LCD density."

Thanks, I've downloaded es explorer but I can't find anywhere to change the settings so I can enable root access. My device is rooted and I can't find the system folder etc
etching I have managed to find it

it I can't save the changes in the document. The view is a bit awkward too to see if I am doing right

an easy way to increase icon size is to use a launcher. they usually have options for this. i use apex.
