Hi,
i´m a little confused. I tried to change the dpi settings on my new mediapad t5 under system -> developer options -> smallest width to 800 (and i tried 700,that was changed to 702) but when i reboot it is resetted to 566.
I also tried to chage it with the tool "minimal_adb_fastboot_1.4.3_portable" and used the command adb shell wm density 800 && adb reboot the device does a reboot but the value is not changed. i dont want to root the device right now. how can i change the dpi without rooting, what did i wrong?
That's "normal" I can't keep it when I reboot too.
for my end I'm ok rooting but I didn't found a way to make it stay after a reboot.
I'm really waiting for custom rom... Really good tablet but not-so-good EMUI8...
is it possible to have a start script that will set the dpi to 700 on every boot? does someone know how to implement a startscript without root?
Also trying to achieve this now. But get the same problem.
It's set to normall again after rebooting.
From the other side, USB debugging is also not holding it's settings. So don't know if it's related to each other somehow.
I also noticed that the left side icons in the settings menu dissapear when changing dpi setting above 640?
So far rebooting is the only way to get them back (resetting dpi) for me.
Annyone found a sollution already for this? Or can someone confirm rooting will help (keeping the stock ROM)?
I am also looking for solution but no clue !
The only solution is Polished Custom Rom and it's not available yet!
I am using this tab for Netflix and Prime only. So, right now I am happy with EMUI 8.

Hey guys, this has already been asked in this forum somewhere.. I've changed my dpi to a usable setting although I'm not sure what it's actually set to!
Use Quickshortcutmaker, grab it from play store. You can create a home screen icon to open vision settings. Open the settings and set everything to small.
I've done this and it persists through a reboot. I can't tell you if it's 700 but it's way better than the insane huge stock settings

I want to know how to change the Lcd Density from 160 to 140. Im using Zpad clean rom. I Went to System/Build.prop and I didnt see the Ro.density text or what ever it is. LCD Density for root works but it resets after restart. Anyone know how?
Figured it out. In system/Build.prop using Root Explorer I just made my own line and put ro.sf.lcd_density=140 and then saved and rebooted the tablet. Seems to have worked. If somone decides to change density like this dont forget to make a backup just in case.
EDIT: EHHH. Slide down bar was buggy and pissed me off and some apps wher windowed a bit so i gave in and just bought LCD Density changer from Market for a buck and use that. Works great.

works well for me by changing the system/build.prop to 140.
Changed to 140 also and it makes some apps not fill screen but not a big hitter actually see more on screen with browsers and other apps. Especially with apps like settings and ROM Manager, etc....
Also went down and trying currently at 130. Here are screen shots of what it is like at default and 130. I kind of like seeing more of the screen.
Here are the setting I used in the build.prop file
ro.sf.lcd_density=130
Running Vegan 5.1 here are screenshots before and after
Screenshots below default and 130 settings:
Yeh lcd density app same as just changing it in build.prop. Slide down bar not full screen anymore when set too 140 on zpad clean rom. Wonder why.. Hmmm... worked b4 so now no point in the app except faster changes. Oh well.
Have you checked Spare Parts app to see if you have "Compatibility Mode" checked or unchecked?
I believe Unchecked should open things back to full screen.
I unchecked compatibility it at 130 and 140. No effect to Android notifications.
Hi
I need help with my 702L, i upgraded from B106 to B201 (6.0 test version from Huawei Taiwan) and when I change the DPI it would work but whenever I restart my phone it will revert back to the original DPI. Any work around for this?
Thanks before.
When I change DPI settings, it required a restart of the phone, and after that it works fine.
I have one question when u pull the top down menu for shortcut, I only have : wifi, Bluetooth, Torch, settings, mobile data, sound, aeroplane, autorotate, screenshot.
I miss GPS, W-lanhotspot,multiscreen, and alot of the shortcuts from the previous version.

yeah, the b201 is missing some of the shortcut from b006
I also have the same problem as OP, custom DPI revert back to original after restarting device. Does anyone have solutions to this problem? Do I need my phone rooted? It will be great if someone can help me, many thanks.
same problem here, but i can notice taht this is happening then using some 3th party software, while from kangvips menu seeems working fine
You can add this line in the build.prop if you're rooted:
qemu.sf.lcd_density=xxx where xxx is the density you like. I usually use 325.
If you're not rooted you can use adb and run this command:
adb shell wm density xxx && adb reboot
I changed dpi value by Root DPI Changer in Acer Liquid Z530(T02) I accidentally set it to 100 (But it works for 200). It restarted later system UI is forced stopped. I can't access to anything even when I can receive a call but I can't even pick up. No caller screen is visible. I went to flash menu and select factory reset. So I think developer tools may be turned off. Therefore, usb debugging got off. Is there any possibility of getting it back to normal state.
I rooted my mobile by King Root.

So I have a ZTE axon M, the dual screen phone, without root. And while most people can just set smallest width when they boot the phone and it will stick, with the dual screens it resets every time you open or close the phone, making it very annoying to constantly set again. So I was hoping maybe there is some way of setting it via a terminal emulator script. I did a lot of googling before asking this.
Bump?
Hi,
I just bought a joying UIS7862, 6GB+128GB,10.1" 1920x1200 head unit. I am not sure what type this unit is, is it a TS10?
The problem is that in third party applications everything is very small, small fonts, small details. This applies to apps like tidal, google maps, chrome etc. It is basically impossible to use these apps comfortably.
There is no "font size" or "display size" option in the device settings.
I solved the problem by changing the "smallest width" setting in the developer options from 1200 to 700. The apps look good now. the built-in apps also look good, except for the EQ app and the built-in launcher.
The launcher is not displayed at all, however, this problem can be easily solved by installing another launcher such as car web guru, which works great.
The real problem is with the EQ application which does not scale well. Some controls are out of screen, others are displayed incorrectly.
Is there an alternative application that supports dsp functions (dsp version of this device is dsp55) and will be displayed correctly?
Maybe someone has another way to solve the problem I described.
Marek.
I've done the same change on my 11.6 version. Did you do a full system reboot after changing the dpi setting? I had the same issue until I did a full reboot, then the system apps changed to the appropriate dpi scaling. You may want to change the dpi in small increments as well until everything looks correct.

What do you mean by 'full reboot"? All other system aps scale well, only eq app doesn't.
Just the Reboot from the top drop down menu. I guess I had not noticed if the EQ app was significantly larger in scale after the dpi change.
You missed the FYT forum listing your device....
Yet another.
Requested mod moves to FYT.

I think I did it before, but to be sure I did a reboot today few times. It didn't help.
This happened on my 10 inch joying (airmont sc9853i). I hated it so much. Here's what I did. Should work for you.
Enable ADB by.... (or using Termux app)
- going to settings > system > developer options > 3368 > confirm
- at the top of the screen on right, tap three dots overflow menu icon > USB computer connection > pick the 2nd one (usually the one not selected on restarts)
- under where it says developer option, inline where it says "On", make sure that toggle switch is "ON"
- scroll down to, USB debugging, enable
Find the OTG port on the back of your unit. plug in a laptop with adb installed properly so you can 'adb shell'
From that shell, type enter the command 'wm' to being up its help.
what you are looking for is the correct "wm overscan [LEFT,TOP,RIGHT,BOTTOM]"
"wm overscan 10,0,0,0" worked great for me
dont worry about any white bars, they will go away after the screen redraws (switch apps or something)
I never adjusted any fonts or dpi in the system

Thank you. And what about smallest width setting? Should it go back to 1200 as it was originally?

Yea. See if it makes any weird apps better. If not, leave it.
It turned out that the overscan setting didn't solve my problem, however Your answer pointed me in right direction. Thank you.
What was that right direction, post what you learnt so others may prosper
I mean that I started to experiment with adb and wm command, which I was not aware of before. Then I had the idea that I will use tasker to change DPI each time the eq app started and change it back on the exit. But this didn't work. Tasker can not change DPI in my case. I get error 1 message. So when I want to use this app I manually change DPI. The truth is I don't mess much with those settings once I've sett it to my liking....

Hi may I know what do you changed to ? I
I believe I set it to 720p (1280x720), common resolutions seem to work the best. I've since exchanged this unit for the new 11.6 slim so I can't say for sure.
