Yep that was it… added check for modelName.StartsWith(“rm-1064”)  and it worked…

thanks now i can progress

Glad I could help. It’s not the most ideal solution, but I’m not sure what else we can do about it. As you saw in that Microsoft blog post, it was a confirmed Microsoft bug that they apparently never fixed.  :-/

Interestingly enough, we’ve noticed that this scaling bug only seems to happen when side-loading an app onto a Windows 10 Mobile device.  That is, if your app is installed via Microsoft’s app store, the scaling issue won’t happen.  Except for the Lumia 535… which has scaling issues regardless of how it is installed.

We don’t have a Lumia 640XL to test with, but you can double check if the scaling bug won’t happen with apps installed from the Microsoft app store by downloading our “Corona Cannon” app to your device.
