Root LCD Density?

There are LCD density changing apps on the market. I believe you need to be rooted for them to work, also some apps will not work/ work properly if the density is changed. I'm sure if you search the market for LCD Density you should get results for some.

And to add the default density is 240 and you should only change it by small intervals at a time to make sure stuff doesn't get totally screwed up.

Also I am moving this to the root section since I believe that you need to be rooted... If not I can always move it back :).

If you have any root file explorer you can go into /root/system, longpress the build.prop file, and select the option to edit text. Then scroll down and look for the line "ro.sf.lcd_density=240", edit the number to one of your choosing (I use 200) and save the file. Reboot after to apply the new value. Be sure to back up the build.prop first to be on the safe side.
