Change DPI without root - Moto E General

So today someone I work with from SlimRoms found you can quickly change the dpi of any device running 4.4.2 (not sure if it's possible before that).
I'd post this in Android General, but I don't want to step on his feet, so I'm just posting it here for you guys. (I really hate large text/icons/anything on Android since I'm short sighted)
home screen:

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
app drawer:
Obviously I take no responsibility for any issues it causes since it's a purely aosp implementation. I was surprised it was even in user builds.
so. how to do it:
Code:
adb shell wm density <number> # I used 200
or with a terminal emulator (you need root for this [try without to see why you need root]):
Code:
su -c 'wm density <number>'
if you want to go back to the default, do
Code:
wm density reset
The default density is 240 for reference. Lowering the number makes the icons smaller.
Enjoy, and credit to @gmillz from Slimroms for finding this

Sorry for an off topic question, but what's that TESCO icon in your status bar??? Seems like operator name, but I've got XT1022 from India but this operator name doesn't gets displayed this way... Not that I miss it though...

This would be really helpful for the damn big icons in the Google Now Launcher.

Yup, its the operator name and its only available for the European variants (Maybe USA too). Its there for the Moto G as well.

it sucks. I don't mind it on the drop notification drawer, but on the status bar........

Oh I didn't know you can do this without root.
Now I can make everything bigger because icons etc are too small imo.

Its incredibly bigger than the icons displayed in stock launcher though. Its not that ugly but I guess it reduced the icon image clarity.

No, don't say anything else to them about this. It should never have been brought up.
oem's don't like people messing with their stuff. Sure I made this public, but you just set off smoke signals saying "hey look over here. We're messing with something that would be so simple to get rid of. Are you gonna keep it in??"

No, my message wasn't exactly in par with that, because I'm thinking Motorola would've made it wisely to identify carrier name immediately when you start using your phone, sure dragging the notification bar takes time. My old Nokia 1100 had similar fashion carrier name in the left section, and battery bars in right, so I must say its fair enough by them to follow the General cellular phone screen layout guidelines.

Same here. It may as well be 2.3.7.
The main UI will be largely the same however certain elements will have more of a 3.x twist to them, like the widget screen and app switcher.
Also apps will work differently when in landscape (tablet mode) to portrait (phone mode).
I see the word "soju" in those screen shots... Thats a Korean Alcohol... Just sayin'

Taken from Engadget comments.
-Honeycomb uses a much newer kernel build, 2.6.36, and ICS was allegedly supposed to use the new Linux 3.0 kernel
-Phone icon taken directly from froyo, not even gingerbread
-Android version is supposed to say the version number, not name, even with previous leaks with gingerbread they always showed the number. ie 3.1 or 4.0
-This has a teal blue theme rather than the dark blue colors of Honeycomb
-App tray should be semi-transparent, where are the holographic UI elements from Honeycomb?
- Shouldnt the clock have an LED font?
- That power control widget has been removed ever since Honeycomb

Nothing against the guy but I dont see the real point in editing the pictures, infact i dont see the whole point of this "proof of concept" photo. Was expecting more changes from ICS though.. I wonder how it performs resolution scaling with apps?
I still hope those are fake or just an early test version. Can't really see much improvement if that's what ICS looks. Hopefully it will be much better than that.

I just tried out both your battery mods, and they both are awesome. One question though...I don't know if its possible or not, but is there a way to get rid of the color changing feature and just make it the same color as the other buttons on the bar? I only ask because I'm completely weirdo and want it to match. Thanks for the cool mods though, I like seeing actual numbers for my battery so I know for sure how charged up I am.
P.S. What theme/launcher are you using? I really like the 3D app buttons.

Thanks.
Which battery mod are you wanting to be one color? Also I presume you are using stock Menu buttons (blue) and stock ROM right? In the kitchen there is a 'Circle Battery' that is blue throughout the range; I could do this one for you in a couple of minutes.
If you want one of the ones in my original post, it will take me a little bit of time to re-color the icons. Just let me know which.
I'm using the stock launcher- The App icons are all from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16493815&postcount=662 Enjoy.

Yes i want a wifi signal. Not a couple of bars that dont mean anything.
Wifi signal is a negative number though. So it is 0 dBm to -100 dBm.
And its way more accurate if the update interval is set properly.

Gotcha.
Unfortunately I don't know if that can be done. I don't know of a way to make the system actually 'read' the wifi value and display it. The way systemUI uses the icons now is just displaying them in a sequence of 4-5 icons (not including traffic) in a preset value order.
I could make up a few -numbered values in photoshop to use them as icons but they would be just as 'meaningless' as 4 bars.
Sorry.
bump for peeps
How do you change icons images with the stock launcher?
I downloaded them and desktop visualizer but the images remain tiny.
I tried it with vtl launcher...icons still are small?
Id like to stick with the vtl launcher so i may have to keep the small icons ill play around a little more.

On my XPlay :)

I wanted to make a little thread, to let everyone know what I have done to my XPlay, if anyone really cares, lol.
Obviously, first thing I did was unlock the bootloader and root it
Titanium Back-up Pro is my best friend, I removed LOADS of bloatware and all the crap I didn't need. Lovely.
SD Maid Pro helps to keep everything in check and my system and apps clean and tidy.
Now to the fun, that has got to me where I am today...
I made my own UOT theme, which can be found HERE.
I then started adding some of the Xperia S apps from THIS THREAD. Some worked, some didn't, so I have ended up with the new conversations app, contacts app, and dialer that look great, I also started using the Home.apk from that thread, but wasn't too keen on it, so found THIS THREAD where the Home.apk files work great, with all the new tweeks, so I have 3 home screens, 5x4 icons in the app tray and fading home screen indicators.
Only problem with the new Home.apk was because the Xperia S has a higher res than the XPlay, the text looked wrong, so just messing around I used Font Changer (from the market) and added the old skool Playstation font, called Zrnic.ttf and now it looks GREAT!!
Of course, I am using some other app's too, like Fancy Widgets for my clock and weather, the Type & Send widget, and Widgetsoid for every kind of switcher I could want. Went thru loads of calendar app's to find one I liked, and ended up using Simple Calendar with a nice 4x3 widget.
In addition to this, I have flashed the old CRT lock screen animation from HERE, Bravia Engine, and Reboot options in my theme from AdamTt (find the mod HERE)
Now to the OS, I'm on 2.3.4 with .62 firmware, running DooMKernel V11 and I am finding it great!!
Well, I think that's it to be honest, So this is where I leave u, lol.
If anyone whats any more info about anything in this thread please feel free to ask, before I got my XPlay I had NEVER used an Android phone, and now I wouldn't be without it. And I think I have learnt a lot and that is all down to the people of XDA forums, so I give a MASSIVE thank u to everyone who has answered my stupid n00b questions over the last few months. I wish I could list everyone who has helped me, but there are far too many to remember but the few I do are:
DooMLoRD - For everything he has done for me, and the whole XPlay community with his kernels.
cyrusalmighty - For all the help with the lock screen on my theme.
vr5411 - For the amazing work on the Xperia S Home.apk files.
AdamTt - For the Reboot options that work on many devices
AndroHero & Cat_On_Droid - For just always helping a n00b, with REALLY stupid questions, to find the answers.
And many thanx to anyone else who I have forgotten to add.

Strange question marks. It happens too when I recieve long sms while my phone is in landscape mode. I see some words on the status bar but then there is big area with these "??" and nothing else. It's strange because i have no problems with standard font. How can I get rid of that problem?

Basically that is to do with the actual font, some characters may not be supported, so where as a "normal" font just puts a [] shape, zrnic puts a big ? lol, I have also found a symbol that looks like a massive copyright info panel, lol, I'm afraid there is nothing that can be done about it, seeing as it is just built into the font and not to do with Font Changer or anything I have done.
Hope this has helped.

This process is very easy:
Go ahead and install Handcent sms and Handcent emoji plugin.
Among your apps there will be a new icon called Handcent SMS, go ahead and open it.
Press the icon in the upper right corner to make a new text message.
Put your finger on the lower half of the screen to start making your new message.
Push the menu button on your phone to bring up the Handcent messaging settings.
Hit the Insert smiley and next hit the Emoji icon.
Now you can go ahead and choose from a multitude of new emoticons for your Android phone
If this was useful why not.You can inform me if unable to work .

I've been considering maybe a rom with the emojis included. I already plan on rooting it as soon as I open the box. I'll have to keep that app in mind., thanks.

My current phone, an HTC Vivid, had cm10 with emojis, but it had a in-call bug that volume was too low and you had to scream for others to hear you, so i replaced it with another ROM. Is there already a root for the S4?
Doubt it. Googles trying to push their weird black and white emojis

Lol, I'm with ATT and got the tracking number today :victory: I think I'm going to be working when it gets here :crying:
Just an update, I found these 'emojis' in my Instagram profile. I previously typed them in using my emoji enabled iPad 3rd gen & these are what appeared when I was using my G4. Normally on my other phone, they were just obnoxious blank squares.

They usually tend to listen to stuff like taht, hope that by the 4.4 update for dev edition (sense 5.5 along) it will be there otherwise third party apps it is
only different launcher allows

What so funny actually? Are you figuring how to set a different wallpaper in lockscreen without root at Sense 5.5 ?

Yes, how dare people ask for a feature they had when they bought their expensive cell phones to be reintroduced.
I signed it, OP.
Why not use a lock screen launcher as a alternative rather than signing a petition about something minor.

Ever stop and think it was reasonable to remove a handy feature ?
Lots of people enjoying it I must say, starting from my old old HTC Desire I can customize the wallpaper differently to the homescreen. How come it has been removed suddenly?
I know in Stock Android 4.3 it is having the same wallpaper at lockscreen, is it an excuse following the so-called "Google Policy" to remove a handy feature like this? What if the next update HTC is going to remove another useful feature ?
An update should be adding new features, but not removing features.

Ask HTC lol.. Really getting your panties all knotted because something was removed is silly. There are and number of reason why HTC removed it.. I'm guessing they did just to erk you.

So you don't know the reasons for removing it, yet you claim there are a number of reasons? Makes sense.
No I said there are any number of reasons. I don't work for HTC..

Just add and don't remove
It is the same thing as with the option of not using any lockscreen at all. I agree that an update should add and not remove features. I have already called the HTC support hotline and they admitted that there were already several calls concerning this.
In fact I purchased (no, sorry, my wife purchased) a product which now misses functions it originally had...
Boy : (Crying)
Mom: what is it son, why are you crying?
Boy: Mom, i cant change my Wallpaper on my lockscreen :`( . Why did htc do this to us. Just why.
Mom: Slaps the boy and leaves.

You've got to be one of the four people that care. If you want a different lockscreen wallpaper, change the home screen wallpaper. Problem fixed.
