Does anyone know how to change screen resolution in Remix OS for PC.
There is no option in Display Settings either.
And Hotkeys [shift+Alt+Ctrl+F5/F6/F7/F8] aren't working either.
It'll be almost unusable at 1920x1080 (the current resolution)
I've a 21-inch monitor display
Here's a screenshot

It'll be down to your hardware but you could try putting a command on the kernel line @ boot time to alter it to 1280x800 or whatever native res you have.
Thnx I put command DPI=232 when booting. All is fine now.
BTW.
I used this DPI calculator to calculate it for 1024x768 resosution . 22-inches Monitor
https://www.sven.de/dpi/
Horizontal resolution: 1024 pixels
Vertical resolution: 768 pixels
Diagonal: 22 inches
It gave me DPI = 232 and that's what I'm using !

How to set resolution and dpi on remix os??
Add the command DPI=XYZ in your Grub entry, at the end of kernel line
Or by pressing Tab when booting between Resident or Guest modes
Use the DPI calculator to calculate DPI for your screen res and monitor size (in diagonal)
The command UVESA_MODE=XYZxABC .. doesn't work for some reason
The easiest way I have found to change DPI without root is by adding it in the Grub settings. For instance, on my SP3, I am using a DPI of 200. Look below for more:
Code:
menuentry 'RemixOS-x86' --class android {
search --file --no-floppy --set=root /RemixOS/system.img
linux /RemixOS/kernel root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.hardware=remix_x86 androidboot.selinux=permissive DPI=210 quiet DATA=/RemixOS
initrd /RemixOS/initrd.img
}

I also have a sp3 and am dual booting win10 with remixos...but with remix os everything is super small. I have no idea how to edit the Grub file. If you can assist me in this it will be appreciated.
Hi there
So I've been looking for a way to change the resolution ever since I installed the OS on my PC
Because In my case everything on the screen looked uncomfortably TOO big ...
First of all I have a 21" Samsung LCD screen with resolution of 1600×900
Also my specs are processor: Intel Pentium E5700 3.00KHZ 2Mb Cache. ..... GPU Nvidia geforce GT520 1GB DDR3 ... 4 GB of DDR3 RAM. .... And 20 GBs available storage for remix OS ........ Also I'm dual booting the OS with Windows 10 pro X64
I tried the DPI calculator and inserted the right info ... And it told me that the suitable DPI for my screen is 188.44 .... I sat everything up correctly as mentioned ... After the boot I noticed that everything on the screen became even bigger !!??
I got back to the boot grub and sat the DPI to 140 and booted it up ... Every thing looked nice again and well-sized but the edges of the objects on screen are not as smooth as they should look ...
Also ... ever since I installed the OS I noticed that my screen is stuck to the 1024×768 resolution and I can't change it at all .... Once it changed to the 800×600 resolution when I sat the DPI value to 240 and that's it !!
Any one knows how I can make it work on my native screen resolution?!
(Note: I don't have any screen resolution issues when I boot the PC on win 10 )
21" 1600x900 has a dpi of 88;1920x1080 has 105 so the best setting would be 120 for both.
the default for Remix is 160 for example 13.3" 1920x1080 that has 165 or 27" 4k has 163
the SP3 are tricky because its 216 is close to old tvdpi(not supported) so if they use 160 its too small and 240 might be too big(probably recommended setting)
Need Help

We don't know when this will happen, but Android N will make this native.
And with more API's becoming native, Remix OS will become stable even faster.
thank you but it would be more awesome if we could replace windows and ubuntu linux entirely with remix os and someone should compile an exclusive wine version for remix os so we can have all the greatness that android has to offer

if your resolution is too high, why dont u just increase the text size??? like u normally do in windows 10 ??
for example, my laptop displays 3200 x 1800 resolution (native) on a 14" screen... its set at 200% text size on windows at the same resolution
similarly, when i installed remix on my laptop, the resolution is by default set at native 3200x1800 pixels and the text was extremely tiny.
so i went to experimental option under settings and changed the font size to 2.0x (double the original value).
confirm+reboot and it was sorted.
its always best to run at native resolution. lowering will make everything blurry. best to just adjust text display size.

It doesn't work
Setting screen resolution within the "Debug Terminal Console"
Did you try the method described here? For me that worked in order to adjust the resolution for a second screen mirrowing then Remix OS output.

Hi,
My device is ASUS ZD551KL running android M, stock rom, not rooted.
It display resolution native is 1920x1080, and 480dpi. With this resolution playing game a bit heavy, so i try to change display resolution and dpi. I did that using adb shell command to make resolution 1280x720 and 320dpi.
The problem is the physical (capacitive) buttons not working when i change the resolution (with dpi changed it works fine). So, anyone can help to get around this problem? With non rooted solution preferably.
Thx.
Dear all,
I downloaded and tried RemixOS 3.207 x64 on VMWare VM just to try this amazing OS. All works fine, except screen resolution.
Default screen resolution (VMWare window) is 800x600 and searching on Google I was not able to find any working method to set my desired resolution at boot or when OS running.
Attention: I don't want to setup screen DPI, I can already do that and is working fine. What I desire is to set the screen resolution (VMWare Player host window) to a specific resolution (ex.: 1600x900).
The only method that seems to work half is to add "vga=ask" on GRUB menu, and when RemixOS is starting it propose me a list of resolutions to use.
If I choose 0x342 (1152x864x32) after confirmed with RETURN the VMWare window size changes to a bigger size, and internal RemixOS resolution is really 1152x864x32.
Unfortunately higher resolutions are not present (max is 1152x864) and I don't understand if this is a limit of RemixOS or by the VMWare video card emulator which not supports higher VESA modes.
However windows is working fine at full res (1920x1024) inside VMWare.
Please help in setting VMWare fixed high resolution for RemixOS.
Thanks
this is the exact problem with remix, someone fix please
Hello, I installed android x86 on an old laptop to run a game. Everything is working correctly and no issues so far. Now I’m trying to run one app that only works in cellphone resolution (720x1280). Tried to change resolution with apps from playstore, resolution changed but app stoped. Tried to change resolution with terminal ( wm size 720x1280 ), resolution changed but app still stops. Then i finally remembered to edit build.prop and added (debug.drm.mode.force=720x1280) to build.prop and the app started to work, but now the resolution doesn’t fit in display, causing the image to flip and stretch in screen. Now that I’m sure that it’s a resolution problem to use the app, is there any alternatives to display things proportionally on screen without flipping all the system and apps?
Thanks and sorry for the big text
Hi everyone,
I'm having trouble with display resolution on my Orange Pi 3 LTS board. I have a 7-inch display with a resolution of 1024x600 from Waveshare, but seems that its not supported by Orange Pi. I get black screen with some colored lines.
board and the display are fine i connected other hdmi desktop monitor to the board and its all good.
also checked the 7 inch diaplayby connection to other comptures everything is fine as well. in fact orange pi ubuntu linux system are working good withthis display. The problem is only with android.
I've tried various methods to change the resolution, but nothing seems to work. well i am new to all this so may be i did not do it correctly.
I've tried unpacking .img file and editing the parameters in the config.fex file, it did not work.
I've also tried using the adb shell , adb shell wm size 1024x60 it did change the resolution but still no image on the display.
I would really appreciate any help or guidance on how to set the correct custom resolution for my display on the Orange Pi 3 LTS. If you have any experience with this issue or know of any resources that could help me, please share them in the comments below.
Thank you in advance for your help!
