We all use Android devices, but we don’t know about this feature called as screen resolution. And most of the users come across this feature when they need to change the screen resolution of their devices. Mostly this feature is useful for changing your normal phone mode to “Tablet” or “Phablet” mode.
This feature requires root to work, but you can also do this without rooting your phone. Since most of the users are worried about device warranty, they don’t want to root their phones. So basically this feature can be applied without rooting, but your device will reboot during the process. Now this can be irritating because whenever you need to change the screen resolution, your device will reboot and it will take much time for the rebooting process.
