Hi
I want to use my android phone as secondary desktop.
I connect my phone to a larger display using HDMI out or miracast and connect it to a keyboard and mouse via bluetooth.
But all the icons are too zoomed as the dpi isn't automatically fixed.
I found an app by name of secondscreen ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...een.free&hl=en ) which does the same for me. It changes dpi whenever an external display is connected but for it to work, it requires root.
Is there some other way by which I can do the same without root. Like whenever it is connected to external display , it changes dpi to 160.
The main problem I face is in 2 apps: browser and office. So if the overall dpi of device can not be changed then can these 2 apps be forced to run at this dpi. I don't mind if they become unusable when opened directly on phone but they should be usable when opened on secondary display.
The last option I have in my mind is to run linux on android and then dpi fixes on its own, but I somehow haven't been successful in running linux without root on my phone (maybe something wrong with the custom rom I have installed so gonna try it out on a stock rom soon)
So I have 3 alternatives
1. Change DPI of the device to 160 without root ( need to figure out a way for this)
2. Compile apps to run at a particular forced DPI so they work properly when connected on external display ( not sure if this can be done either)
3. Run Linux without root on android phone ( still trying it out )
4. ???? any methods you guys wanna suggest
