I am new in android development. I have created an android application most of the devices design are looking fine. 1080x1920 resolution devices working fine. But, some devices Nexus 5x and LeEco-2 (both having same resolution) the designs (UI) are not looking as expected in these devices.
How which resource folder I need to use for these devices ?
call this method to know which screen size is actually the device is! some devices get value from xxxhdpi some get from sw800dp (or any other smallest width folder)
public int differentDensityAndScreenSize(Context context) {
int value = 20;
String str = "";
if ((context.getResources().getConfiguration().screenLayout & Configuration.SCREENLAYOUT_SIZE_MASK) == Configuration.SCREENLAYOUT_SIZE_SMALL) {
switch (context.getResources().getDisplayMetrics().densityDpi) {
case DisplayMetrics.DENSITY_LOW:
str = "small-ldpi";
