Hi Dianne,

thank you for answering my question.

maybe i have written my problem in a wrong way^^

what i want to do is as i wrote to be compatible to Froyo – that means, i have 
some parts in my code
that checks for XHDPI devices (i know, its up to Gingerbread) but i cant remove 
that code ... but, these
functions arent supported in Froyo – so, what can i do to support both Froyo 
and xlarge devices?
I dont want to create a second app to be compatible :(

Btw:
can i use code such as
boolean isScreenLarge = mDisplayMetrics.densityDpi >= 
DisplayMetrics.DENSITY_HIGH
... maybe this can solve my problem because DENSITY_HIGH is supported.
this are constant hex values that cant be compared to greater or less as i 
think, or does that works ??? 

Thanks for help ;)

xhdpi wasn't added until GB.  It doesn't exist on Froyo, so there is no need to 
check for it. 

Also saying that you are checking density to solve problems on large devices 
is...  wrong.  Density is screen pixel density; it has nothing to do with 
device/screen *size*.

  Hi,

  i want to make my app compatible to Froyo, i can downgrade most of my
  code but have
  no idea on how to detect XHDPI screens. Currently i have things in my
  code like
  "if( mDisplayDensity == DisplayMetrics.DENSITY_XHIGH)" to solve some
  problems on large
  devices - in the Froyo version this isnt possible because its not
  supported.

  Thanks for a tipp to solve that :)
