For all you people who want to have a working phone.apk with high dpi, I managed a "mixed" apk that works fine with higher dpi then stock 160.
I discovered the problem was caused by "png"s of "drawable-hdpi-finger" directory.
I replaced the 2.3's phone.apk with simplestreak 1.3 ones, and all works fine....
Here you are the flashable zip....
Don't forget "thanks" button...

Hey MAX thanks a lot, would give it a shot once at home, however just wanted to know if this phone.apk fixes the MMI(USSD) code issue as well??

Simplestreak is based on 354, phone.apk is the same...
In fact I used simplestreak png for 2.3 version, like mentioned in my post
Is the MMI(USSD) code issue fix with this phone.apk? Thaking you in advance and looking forward to your replay.

simplestreak 1.2, baseband 351, 220DPI
with 220 DPI setting the phone.apk in landscape isn't displayed well, how can I fix it?
anyway, I would change the phone.apk 'cause I don't use it, but after a missing call it appears, how can I do?
thanks
update: I've installed the deodexed simplestreak 1.2, so I can change easily the phone.apk, so how can I change it with gocontacts (i.e. godialer)?

You install go contacts ex, replace shortcuts on your homescreen with the ones for go dialer, go contacts, clear the cache of the dialer and the contacts app, and you should have a dialer replacement, its not perfect, but at this time its better than the stock one at 240dpi.

OK so when you hang up, it shows old dialer, so, install no call log classic
Set it up to go back to the Go Contacts EX dialer, Contacts list or the home screen, and thats your dialer sorted.
Another dialer that works well is RocketDial. It can do this on its own, there is an option in its settings to choose the action when a call ends.
LCD Density 220
I was able to change the density to 220 without any crashes and FC after flashing the phone.apk attached in this thread but noticed that there is a rapid drain in battery after adjusting the screen density. i am using stock battery by the way...
May I ask how you could fix the error regarding FC when having a lower LCD density?
I'm trying to get a working Phone.apk from AOKP source, so I can fix the "slider to answer the call is off the screen" issue.

Info from this thread originally - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=760805
Since we are using larger screens google recommends we change our dpi from 240 to 160, this probably looks fine for stock builds but on sense builds everything looks crazy. I currently have mine(on a sense build) at 210 however feel free to change it to what is best for you.
to perform this modification
pull the build.prop from /system/build.prop
open the file using a text editor and change ro.sf.lcd_density=240 to ro.sf.lcd_density=160(or whatever number you choose)
then push the file back to /system/build.prob
(i used a paid app called root explorer for this process)
if you want you use terminal emulator or adb here are the commands:
su
cp /system/build.prop /sdcard
then once youve edited the file
cp /sdcard/build.prop /system
you can use the same commands over adb by entering adb shell
download the spare parts app from the market and untick the compatibility mode then reboot (this fixes the issues some apps have with scaling)
the result of this mod is more things fit on the screen e.g. lists and web pages and games like raging thunder 2 look better as they arent being stretched out as much.
i recommend for a sense build: 200 to 220
for a vanilla build 160-220
if anyone has any better numbers please post

input the values for HD2, you get ~217 dpi if you want to be anal about it
I wonder what effect not specifying any DPI would have...
this would be great if the lockscreen wallpaper would be retained... changing the dpi messes with the static wallpapers set...
I've tried 200, looks ok. I've always thought that we need to up the dpi, at 240 its way too huge for our screen.
160 messed everything up for me, the notification bar etc only filled half the screen. Other than that it looked awesome though! 200 might be the best, would be good to hear other opinions, not got a great deal of time to test
Is there a way to do it without Root Explorer?

with 220 most of the apps doesnt scale properly and some doesnt work at all. Back to 240.
I set mine to 210.
It's hard to see the difference. I use MattC 1.5b with Froyo version...
The icons for "folder organizer" look smaller. But everything else seems to be the same. e.g. the htc sense applications, home, etc.
Maybe my mind is playing tricks on me.

Hey man, just wanna say thanks for this! It works perfectly as described and love the mms notification icon to be green instead if black. Great work thanks
Thanks dude works great! I wish there was an option to disable the contact icon in the chat, but that has nothing to do with your fix. Thanks again!
Here is a slightly modded version:
CHANGES: blue envelope in the status bar for incoming texts, TW MMS icon (white envelope), removed MDPI icons, and optipng/zipalign optimized.
Very small filesize (~600kb) and runs great on my JK2 Froyo ROM!

the MMS crash was caused by a missing class file usually in the system

is the mms package tweaked to support the puzzle notification?
If it is, is the source configured the same way or is the source completely unmodified?
I'd like to get an unmodified mms if possible, the stock 2.2 mms is so blurry (preferably already compiled). thanks!

With the talk of Samsung releasing the SGSII line with just about the lowest resolution on the market, has anyone been using an LCD Density changer (or just changed the density) to effectively give a better resolution?
How are the results? Does it cause any issues in apps or what not?
I have unfortunately touchwiz can't handle the change, i mean it still works but it doesn't adapt to the new size, neither does the dialer. tried turning off compatibility mode in spare parts, but that did nothing.
Here is a screenie from when I was running CM7.1 nightly 9 with ADW EX launcher set to 8x8 homescreen with DPI set to 200
The dialer was compressed, but nothing that some editing of the numerical PNG files in contacts.apk couldn't fix. It worked fine, no force closes anywhere.
Super simple to do, just use Root Explorer to edit /system/build.prop and change the line:
Code:
ro.sf.lcd_density=200
...save + exit and reboot.
The smaller the number, the more compressed the pixels. My Dell Streak 5 default is dpi 160, so using a 4x4 touchwiz homescreen at 240 dpi is taking some getting use to.
Some market apps will refuse to install at anything other than stock dpi. Not a big deal, revert changes + reboot + install + mod dpi again + reboot + done.
For the record, I'm using UnNamed 1.1 this week at stock DPI (and amazed that I kinda like TW4)
Okay im looking at that line so how do i edit it? Forgive me im new to this stuff /
SGS2 rooted and Overclocked to 1.5ghz stock rom p
No prob. Using Root Explorer, navigate to /system/ and make sure to hit the button in the top right "Mount R/W"
Long press "build.prop" and select Open in Text Editor
Make the change to the line "ro.sf.lcd_density=240" to whatever you want (200 probably works best)
Hit Menu softkey and choose "Save & Exit"
Root Explorer will automatically save a backup copy of build.prop
Reboot your phone to apply DPI change.
There is also a free root file manager called Super Manager, but I haven't used it.
I came from a dell streak as well so the stock 240 density was WAY too big for me. Mine is set to 200 now and like it much better! But i ditched TW and i'm currently running UnNamed + ADWex.
nickshertzer, i'm currently attempting to edit the Phone.apk so the dialer stretches out. How did you go about doing this? I've got the Phone.apk decompiled, can't it be fixed by editing the dip values in the .xml files?
I found this thread with a script to edit the dialer for the I9000 that i'm attempting to use as a rough guide.

Nick I tried your method several different ways and have been going around an around with this for several weeks on our phone and also Sprint version too and the revert back does not stick or still allow to download/update the apps from the market. Tried restarting, clearing cache and resetting the market data and restarting but it still would persist and not allow the updates and incompatibility. The only success I experience is right after I update to a newer version of ROM or clean install all together (which for obvious reasons) resets the phone and then allows the update actions. It is just very frustrating that the DPI change would hinder "Certain Apps" from updating. Anyone have ideas on a future solution besides Nicks input on the manual fix? I think we have brilliant screens with lots of potential for various display options and I miss using the 200dpi settings, but application updates and use of the market is much more important for daily use.

I have used the dialer files from this thread you mentioned and it all works fine on this ROM the only down side is once you theme that it changes to the themed dialer and goes with the 240 adjusted dialer. I would hope you could share your input and steps (If not too complex) to allow themers to integrate into their themes for multi dpi users.
No need to edit build.prop, this app does it for you:
http://www.appbrain.com/app/lcd-resolution-(root)/com.wemobs.android.lcdresolution
My biggest issue is the fact that the market sometimes won't let you install stuff at non240 densities.

I use 180 on a daily basis. In order to get around the dialer issue. I replace contacts.apk in Unnamed 2.21 with the one from Mikey's Serendipity 8.2 works perfectly except for the already in-call dialer pad which i rarely ever use is still small but the regular dialer is now stretched to full screen. It comes down to editing a .xml file or two if you want to attempt yourself.
Hperdroid has touchwiz that works on 160. it is my understanding most market things work with that density

How does the dialer look at 220? I'm running Turkbey, and everything looks great and proportional at 200 and 220 except for the dialer. It becomes offset to the left, so I'm just keeping it at stock 240.

I've been using a LCD Density of 185 for as long as I can remember. It's rare now to see an app that doesn't like a custom lcd density setting. Occasionally I run into an app on the market that doesn't like it, and I get the banner at the top of the screen. Since I edit the build.prop for my density setting I have to keep an app handy just incase I get the market issue. But it's an easy fix- use app to get back 240 density> manage applications> market> clear data. Open market> download desired app! Love 185. Probably wouldn't go any lower personally but... for the most part, most apps will happily still work and fill the screen

User preference. By lowering the density you virtually make the screen bigger. (More can fit on the screen)

Well,I recently upgraded to CM7 GingerDX v.22 and the dialer app used is
the WyContacts Froyo MOD v 1.2 (You can see that in the About section).
The app itself is named phone.app.
So,my question is : Are there any alternatives to this one?
N.
I would say Go Dialer or exDialer as a alternative.
For alternate stock phone.apk, maybe se dialer.
Hit the THANKS button if I helped!!
Sent from my W8 using Tapatalk
The dealer is fine. You dont really a new one!
I use exDialer now. but it got some prob in 2.3+ which it cant clear notification. there's a solution, but I'm lazy to find it. exDialer is the best for me.
If ur not happy with the dialer looks, then install a cm7 theme such as ics by Achep which themes the dialer too. tbh i dont think u need tonchange the dialer other than that, as it contains all the appropriate features and is not heavy.
+1 for sparks answer,
And You can use cm9 diler, it's same as the cm7 but it has T9 dialer.
From the market in my opinion best app is dwcontacts.
It's highly customizable (even too much , sometimes it's really hard to find some options) and it looks very nice.
Well,thank you all for your answers and suggestions!
The reason I m researching this is that sometimes it lags a lot in my phone.
Anyway,I ll download some or the apps you mention and report back!
N.
Here is my sugestion, you can extract from other ROM, like mine, xgin v6.1 using dialer gingercruzt 8.2.
You can do it by your self.
Extract it from other ROM.
Look for name phone.apk in the system/app folder
Copy it to the phone.
In the "system/app" folder
Set permission phone.apk as rw.r.r
Good luck.

what do you mean by t9 dialer? I'm using one that was posted in the GingerDX thread. It's wycontacts but you can dial by typing the name of the person you want to call, so if you want to call "mom" you type 666 (lol) and it shows a list with the contacts that match those letters.

T9 is exactly what You Explained in Your post.
CM9 Dialer that i mentioned is now default dialer in minicm7 rom.
cool! gonna try it!
Hmm, can't run it on microcm (stock kernel), could the kernel be the cause of it not working?

Here is my sugestion, you can extract from other ROM, like mine, xgin v6.1 using dialer gingercruzt 8.2.
You can do it by your self.
Extract it from other ROM.
Look for name phone.apk in the system/app folder
Copy it to the phone.
In the "system/app" folder
Set permission phone.apk as rw.r.r

Can you provide more info on this particular dialer please?
I just got it and thinking of trying it!
N.
try this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20735429&postcount=531
p.s. it was my mistake, it's not cm9 dialer, it's just cm7 dialer with T9.
The last days I was playing a little bit with the density on my phone. At first you want to know which ROM I'm using. > CM9 latest build. I would like to set my density to 178 or also to 170, these are densities, the phone can show without a blurred screen, or blurred icons. Everything works fine and looks bombastic! But the problem is, that the phone.apk keeps crashing.
Everything is working until a density of 190. Below this value, phone.apk crashes everytime you start a call, or are called.
I know this problem is not new, but other threads are not answered and very old.
So... Anyone knows, whats the problem? Why it is. And how we could fix it?
I will try to disable compatibility mode in spare parts, but I don't think that it will work.
Anyone knows a workaround or maybe has a modded phone apk for ics?
Thanks in Advance!
EDIT: As I thought, compatibility mode won't change anything.

I don't know how to solve your problem man,but I suggest you give exDialer a go.It's as smooth,functional and cool-looking(even has an ICS theme available) as the ICS dialer.It'd make for a good alternative until you find the solution.
i'm using 185 on cm9 and phone.apk is working great for me.

The problem is that it isn't the dialer that crashes, but InCallScreen. exDialer still uses the default InCallScreen, so it still crashes.

I believe it breaks once you go below 182. If you were to drop your density to 180, you'd see the crashes, too.
hi,
i read very often about reducing density from twohundred and xxx to one hundred and xxx.
but nobody explained, whats the advantage of reducing this.
can somebody explain to me please?

As everything's a bit smaller, more stuff fits on the screen.
its a problem which isnt even fixd in the latest cm9 build so no, wait for fix!
But when everything is smaller, the widgets wont fit on the homescreen... ?
