Enhance your Android app by dynamically resizing it through density adjustments using this simple tool.
Modify the scaling factor by editing DensityScaler.java. Change the value 0.7f to your desired float value:
float scale = 0.7f; // Replace this valueTo change the scaling factor in Smali code, update the following line in DensityScaler.smali:
const v2, 0x3F333333 # 0.7fReplace 0x3F333333 with the corresponding hexadecimal value from the table below.
- Add Files to Source Code: Place the provided files in the
/com/dpi/directory within your app's source code. - Update AndroidManifest: Include the following provider in
AndroidManifest.xml:Note: Replace<provider android:authorities="your.app.name.com.dpi.DensityScaler" android:exported="true" android:name="com.dpi.DensityScaler" />
your.app.namewith your app’s package name.
- Decompile Without Source Code:
apktool d -s name.of.apk
- Add Precompiled Class File: Rename the precompiled
classes.dexfile to the next availableclassesX.dex, such asclasses2.dexorclasses8.dex, and add it to the decompiled APK. - Update AndroidManifest:
Include the following provider:
Again, replace
<provider android:authorities="your.app.name.com.dpi.DensityScaler" android:exported="true" android:name="com.dpi.DensityScaler" />
your.app.namewith your app’s package name.
Use the table below for converting decimal scaling factors to hexadecimal values:
| Decimal | Hexadecimal |
|---|---|
| 0.35 | 0x3EB33333 |
| 0.4 | 0x3ECCCCCD |
| 0.45 | 0x3EE66666 |
| 0.5 | 0x3F000000 |
| 0.55 | 0x3F0CCCCD |
| 0.6 | 0x3F19999A |
| 0.65 | 0x3F266666 |
| 0.7 | 0x3F333333 |
| 0.75 | 0x3F400000 |
| 0.8 | 0x3F4CCCCD |
| 0.85 | 0x3F59999A |
| 0.9 | 0x3F666666 |
By following these steps, you can successfully scale your Android app and fine-tune it for different density preferences.
