NO ROOT REQUIRED

WARNING: ONLY TESTED ON NEXUS 9 AND PARTIALLY ON A GALAXY S6.  CHANGING RESOLUTION MIGHT CAUSE SOME OTHER DEVICES SYSTEM'S UI TO CRASH.  I BEAR NO RESPONSIBILITY IF YOU CHOOSE TO FOLLOW THIS ADVICE AND MESS UP YOUR DEVICE.


Step 1: Enable USB Debugging on your device

Step 2: Connect device to PC, and open command prompt.

Step 3: type "adb shell wm size (put your resolution here - flip horizontal and vertical resolutions -example 720x1280 instead of 1280x720)."  If you want to go back to a previous resolution, then write reset instead of putting the resolution.
 
Example: adb shell wm size 480x640

Optional Step 4:  If you see everything on screen too big or too small, you can change your device's dpi by using this command "adb shell wm density (type dpi here)"

- Now I can actually get fullspeed in some of the outside areas in wind waker on my Nexus 9, and that is without Opengl 4.5/ES 3.2 or overclocking.

- Also, tales of symphonia runs with near perfect audio, and some battles run close to 60fps even with 4 characters and 4 enemies on screen.

This might be useful for my Nvidia Shield Android TV, although I'm not sure if it'll crash the System UI or not. If it does, will it crash my device after I use this method only once or will it crash every time?

Well if it freezes, then you can unplug the console and reboot it into recovery mode. I downrezed my Galaxy S6 from 1440x2560 to 720x1280 and it is also showing some small improvements. Also it seems to throttle way less now. I will try to lower the resolution more on the S6 but TouchWiz keeps crashing on resolution below 720x1280, unlīke my Nexus 9 which can go to any resolution. Maybe it is picky about the dpi.
