While this still works for Alpha 2, it is already fixed if you run a nightly: http://rootzwiki.com...nightly-builds/

------------

The latest chrome beta checks Build_ID in the build.prop to ensure compatibility. Up until now tenderloin was building with a GB Build_ID which broke chrome compatibiltiy. This is now fixed in mainline CM9 code (see my patch here: http://review.cyanog...m/#change,13008) for future builds.

However, on Alpha 2 (which is where you should be for hw video decoding) the fix is to edit a line in build.prop. Replace "ro.build.id=GWK74" with "ro.build.id=IML74K". (Fix taken from here: http://tinyw.in/fSAb)

For those not comfortable doing this I made a flashable fix for it. Just flash the .zip in recovery over alpha 2.

Thanks so much.

Thanks man.

I've changed my DPI to the native 132 for the screen and it appears (to me at least) to be less crisp (compared to 160). Am I seeing things or is the native DPI of 132 somehow using scaled down graphics of the 160 DPI? In regards to that last sentence, I have no idea how DPI/scaling works, so it's just a guess.

Works a treat, thank you for posting. +1 to you sir!

For those manually editing build.prop for the first time, don't forget that you need to reboot for the changes to take effect.

should i upgrade the chrome beta and then flash this?

[eternalx]

Thanks for this! But it seems to alter my 120 dpi back to 160. Is this suppose to happen? I know that both modifies the build.prop.

The zip contains the line:
ro.sf.lcd_density=160

You can just flash the 120 dpi zip after eyeballer's zip or just edit the build.prop yourself.

Updated OP with a 120 dpi version.

You can edit the build.prop very easily with this: https://market.andro...ild.prop.editor
