If he did it with the app you mentioned, why dont you just go back into that app and adjust it back down til you get it back to where it needs to be?

Are you rooted?

If you don't care about texts or any programs you could do a factory reset on the phone through recovery.

My suggestion is to perform a factory data reset. This would erase whatever app has control over your pixel density. Since you're not rooted, your options are fewer, but that would do the trick.

You can do this without having to log into your phone, it's doable from the stock android recovery. Off-hand I'm not sure how to boot into recovery on your device, but Google is your friend on that one. Just pull your battery, put it back in and boot into recovery. Select factory data reset -- this will erase all your apps and data, unfortunately.

Google will restore your apps, but not your data. Your sdcard will not lose any data. Once it finishes, you will need to sign back into your Google account.

Since you have lost access to your phone since you can't enter your PIN/password, that is your only option as far as I know.

Good luck! Hope that helps --
