[Q] [Z010D] How to change screen resolution? - Asus Zenfone Max Questions & Answers

Hi guys, my first post on the forum here.
I do some research about changing resolution on my device Asus Zenfone Max Z010D S410 running on Stock Rom but all of them didnt work, so I want to ask you guys about some method to change screen resolution to lower. How to to it?
I think lower screen resolution can give some better performance thanks for reading.

Most screen resolution apps in the playstore require root, as well as all known methods of doing so. Custom roms like Lineage OS, Resurrection Remix, etc. have the option to change screen density in the display settings. If you are rooted, the easiest way is to go to the system folder in root, edit the text in build.prop using root explorer, then edit or add this line anywhere in the text: "ro.sf.lcd_density=320" 320 is the default dpi for the zenfone max. Decrease the value to make the screen items smaller. Increments of 10 are suggested. Make sure to do a TWRP backup first so that you can revert to your previous configuration in case something goes wrong.

[Q] Resolution stuck - S4 i9505 -PAC Rom

Ok so I am running the Vertigo PAC Rom from 16/9 and decided to visit the Hybrid Properties (Paranoid Android part)...
I changed from Stock UI to Recommended which made everything quite small in the general notification bar etc.
All very well, but when I'm on my motorbike using as a sat nav I need to see certian aspects quickly so would prefer the standard stock resolution as everything is larger.
I reverted to Stock UI but nothing changed.... strange....
I've rebooted, played around with advanced Hybrid settings, all with no change. I also used ROM Toolbox to edit the build.prop LCD section. It states it is on 480 but whatever I change it to nothing is changed (I have Root/Super User etc all permissioned).
Anyone have any ideas at all please?
I tried a Titanium Backup restore for some system settings to no avail as well

Solved - basically I played around with virtually every setting in the Hybrid screen I could come across, changing everything repeatedly and rebooting regularly, then chose the restore option a few times, eventually went to normal!

Changing DPI Settings with Root - optimal Settings

Need help building my custom rom for Zenfone 5 Lollipop

Hello everyone,
this is my first thread here...
I wanted to create my own personal custom rom for Zenfone 5.
I took several custom roms & stock rom based on Lollipop 5.0.x, and added/deleted/updated many apps to my liking.
I also added a new bootanimation.
All this took was only modifying the rom zip file.
After flashing my rom, I manually install xposed modules (example: blurred system UI etc), then enable them in xposed installer, set custom blur effect on status bar and recent apps.
Apply some general settings (example: settings dial pad tone = off, Vibrate on touch = off, Font size = small, brightness level = 0, auto brightness = off)
install nova launcer, then restore it's theme that I made on previous setup.
But I see other modder/developer, they "integrate" all these things on their roms.
(example: BIG OS for zenfone 5 has blurred system ui, all setup already done with its settings accesible by phone's setting app) (no other app available in launcher)
I tried searching how I can add xposed module on my rom, or simply add that particular function in the rom itself, but couldn't find any.
Also I want to know how to set a predefined settings for system and user apps. So that I won't have to customize each and everything after flashing my rom.
This would also eliminate the process of manually installing xposed modules, and setting up everything manually.
Please help me. Point me in right direction so that I can make my personal rom a bit better.

[GUIDE] How to properly change / remove zoom error in eui/miuipro

Guys as we all know when we root our eui we get stuck with zoom sheeting on every app.
But I have found out a fix.
First things first tools required:
1:terminal emulator
2:build prop editor / root file manager
Fix:
Go ahead and open terminal emulator.
Enter the following code
Su
And click enter
wm density ###
### us where you input the amount of DPI you want 420 is normal DPI
-1st part done!
Now open build prop editor
Next Look for "ro.sf.lcd_density=###"
Change ### to previous value which you have set in terminal emulator.
Reboot!
Done!
Now you may think I might have done this in some DPI app but it will make more problems than solving it . believe me!
Special thanks my friend: snehashish
For providing me the fix
Hit thanks if you like my work!
Cheers:highfive:
Guys you can also use this to properly change DPI in eui and miui pro without font or clock glitches.:good:

The first part works. The second part does not: there is no ro.sf.lcd_density setting in the build.prop. And the settings app still reports the display as zoomed.

You wil fund the line ro.sf.lcd_density in all ROM except eUI, in eUI you can search for persist.ro.sf.lcd_density
Or similar to this one but that line start with persist

You must have messed somewhere
I tried the fix and didnt get any errors, but it still randomly switches from zoom mode to normal when opening apps. I really only notice it in gmail and chrome.
Guess changing the DPI has resulted in zoomed in pictures when cropping, cropping happens right as the markers indicate but the crop preview is zoomed in which makes it impossible to edit pictures. Is there a solution/hack for this?
