Antutu reading 480 dpi pixel density? - G2 General

On the results screen after benchmarking my Verizon LG G2, the spec screen reads saying my phone has 480 ppi. This can't be correct as it's supposed to be 423 ppi. Is this reading incorrect or is the Verizon version shipped with a higher density screen we weren't told about?

Moderators, I apologize. I thought this was the Q&A section. Please move to that section.

dpi and ppi are two different things. dpi is dots per inch, ppi is pixels per inch. http://developer.android.com/guide/practices/screens_support.html might explain why dpi is relevant (mainly for developers). ppi can't be modified, it's built into the actual display, dpi on the other hand can be edited through "build.prop" which would allow you to make the operating system within the display look smaller or larger (kind of like changing the resolution on your computer).

Images of bright objects(TV/Lights) taken in dark look very flashy

Whenever i click bright objects in dark environment, the images are too bright and not clear. I have tried all setting. Changed the exposure value to minimum but still not much difference.
See the below image to understand the problem.

I noticed it when I was sitting with a friend watching a match on Projector and we decided to click a pic of it from my cam. And you know what I was so disappointed and later he used his moto defy to take pic and it was perfect. The screen looked so clear that we could read the score as well of a cricket match.
Any suggestions?
Tap the screen on the point where it displays the tv. This will set the focus and exposure for picture.

I did that too but it doesn't have any effect.

[poll] what is your ideal phone body size?

i personally feel like a phone thats over 5 inches is way to big.. (aka the SGSIII, the screen isnt the issue, its the total size of the body). i want a phone i can use one handed.. if i need to press something on the other side of the screen, i either need to adjust my grip, or use my other hand.. its just way to big.
i think the Galaxy S1 had the right size.. they should have kept the screen, and just made the body smaller each time, till they got to barrel-less bodies.
heres the poll, this is a question about phone BODY size, not screen size. i think we can all agree the more of the phone is made up of screen, and less extra body, the better.

one hand operation vs screen size, you have to compromise any one of that for sure.
may be in future bezeless designs we can get both of thes come together

Change area of usability in LCD touch screen

Would it be possible to edit android source code lets say for the Galaxy S to only use a certain portion of the lcd screen. Say much like changing the resolution but creating it so only say 1 inch down would be usable. The rest inoperative.
Just curious if this is a hardware or software thing.

If you knew enough you could do it from either. Why?

Download the Full png here
The big thing is it confirms there will be a QHD resolution on the Galaxy Note, that’s a 2560 x 1440 pixel resolution on the display.
The original size of the image is 2560 x 2560. That’s because Android devices usually have wider images, it’s just to accommodate extra homescreen panes. That’s the way you get the visual effect of moving over the image when your cycle through the pages. The height of the image does confirm the QHD resolution though.
Hope to get the note 4....

Screen resolution

Hi everyone, since the last update in March, in the screen settings the option to change the resolution has disappeared. Where did she go? Because according to the galaxy max hz application my current resolution is in fhd +. I would have liked to be able to go back to wqhd + please.

Which version of the S21 do you have? The classic version only offers fhd. So that would be normal.
