You need to read post #1 carefully.
As per guide, for 1920x1080 you would need to add a resolution for 1920x1080 and double... 3840x2160.

Oh so the key is:
- Each resolution needed, also add a doubled-value for it (1920x1080 need 3840x2160)
- Add both non-HiDPI and Hi-DPI value for all the resolution

Finally I can switch to Full HD HiDPI. Thank you.

Code:

<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">

Ok, I just got it working. I tried ig-platform-id 0x591b0000 instead of 0x59120000 and after that SwitchResX allowed me to add 5120x2880 as a scaled resolution, and that solved it.

Hi there
Can't get HiDPI resolution in my Dis-Pref.
Before I can't get 954x640, but then I mess around trying to get higher resolution and now it's not given me even that.

Looks like something override the setting, but I can't figured out what exactly.
Even when I mark HiDPI mode enable in Quartz Debug after logout that box is showing uncheck. Is it normal?

No "Problem Reporting" files attached (make sure you include details on your display override plist and where it is installed).
Read FAQ, "Problem Reporting" again. Carefully. Attach all requested files/output.

Use the gen_debug.sh tool mentioned in the FAQ, that way it is less likely you'll omit something.

Ok.
Finally I be able to get HiDPI 1720x720 on my native resolution 3440x1440.
Everything looks sharp and "retinAs". The only thing everything is big.
Display settings doesn't show aspect ration setting.
Any suggestion ?

At the same time when I connect to my TV, aspect ratio is available and I can adjust a size of windows.

Thanks

Depends on the resolution of the "computer display" in question.
