[Q] TW dpi change JB - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Here is the thing: i' ve been trying to change the TW UI in my note so it can arrange more icons and making it more suitable to the eye (those ugly huge icons). The problem is with xposed framework I changed all the apps I want but with the UI it's only compressed. Is there a way to get a phablet or tablet UI for TW? BTW I'm running Tonofu rom, is stock holand with some minor tweaks. Thanks in advance!

I think there is an xposed module for that. Check it out.

Seen it not try it

its working for me.. I don't know y it isn't working for you..

What I really want is to have smaller icons and more than 5 in dock. But I don't want to let TW loose.

5X4 stock launcher module and Tablet UI module does not work for me too, with 5X4 phone boots fine but does not add extra row but with Tablet UI it gets stuck on glowing samsung logo...even clearing cache and dalvik does not help...

[Theme] Galaxy S for Fusion!ROM2.2 [OLD]

This theme is for rbrucemtl's 'Fusion!ROM2.2', but currently only 5.1 and lower (although not tested on all of them). So will not work on the latest version. I do not plan on updating it, but the images are there in the theme for someone to take on and port to future versions of this ROM. Sorry to all that have been using it, but I don't have the time these days to keep on top of it.
For you 'FroydVillain' users Alex over at www.villainrom.co.uk has ported this over - http://www.villainrom.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=109&t=2627
All, bar a few of the images have been ported from the Galaxy S ROM. There are a couple of my own minor additions in there also. They have all been resized and 9.png'd so took some time to get them right.
Please note: I do not have that much time to do this sort of thing and I am not planning on updating it further as what I have is enough for me, but If someone else wants to take this and run with it, by all means be my guest
So... attached will give you a rough idea of what is themed. I have also themed the Desk Clock, and included modified notification icons for the Market and Messaging apps. I haven't included the icons you'll see for the apps, as haven't had a chance to update them all so thought better to leave them all out rather than have them half complete. However, I can suggest the 'Gala S' theme for 'ADW Launcher'. That will theme all the apps to the Galaxy S icons.
To achieve the look please follow the below:
Flash the attached theme 'Hero-GalaxyS-0.1.zip' (see below the post) from whatever recovery you are using.
You will then need to change following to white text (or other) in Spare Parts, or the CM Settings:
Clock
Date
Carrier PLMN
Carrier SPN
Notifications ticker
No notification title
Ongoing notification title
Latest notification title
Items title
Items text
Items time
Then as you will see in the screen shots I am using the 'TouchWiz' Launcher. I have not included this but you can obtain it from here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=735632. All credit to the guys who made that possible. It runs very smooth and is actually pretty damn good.
Please note: Samsung Widgets are not included.
Enjoy! ...and don't blame me if it breaks your phone. You should know how to nandroid by now.

Notes for Hero-GalaxyS
Not working for CM6 Nightly. loop boot.
Hmmm, I guess the framework is not transparent across all 2.2 ROMs. I have updated the thread to specify that this now only be for 'Fusion!ROM2.2' as that is what I am using it on and have not tested it on any other.
looks a greatheme, but boot loops on froyodvillain, hopefully some one can port this to it as i really want this theme.
Awweessoommee I will try on CM Nightly just incase it was the guy ^^above^^ that just had problems with it if not is it alright if i try porting it ?? oh and wow didt know it was possible to make the icons background on hero
EDIT: oh and which launcher do i need to use from the link?? the i9000 or the i5800 ??
EDIT2oohh i just remebered i made some status bar mods for galaxy s but could never try them out because i dont have the phone :L
EDIT3:Confirmed boot loop on nightly build :/

I think it's due to the framework, although both are 2.2 ROMs some of the devs modify certain files in there or they differ from they way it's built. So the theme would have to be made for each ROM. Sucks really.
On another note, it doesn't really work that well on FryodVillain as for some reason they have removed the options to change the text colour of the Clock, Date etc... so you just end up with a black clock in the task bar and some black text in the pull down menu. I'm not sure why they did that. I guess to make it as less like CM as possible :S

Both the i9000 and i5800 work fine on the Hero. Although the i5800 has a better fit on the icons and text in the app drawer. Both have the same features, so it's what you prefer really.
It will prob boot loop on any CM at the mo. I think once a final version comes out it'll be much easier to get a theme ready for any ROM, but in their current states, with constant updates it's difficult to keep up
Still the files are there ready to play with for anyone who may want to.
Sweet Thanks
Any chance of the lock screen ?

Not yet. None of them have been ported and I don't think they'd work until the whole ROM was ported over. I think some people might be looking at it but don't think it's gonna happen

i don't think it matters which nightly you theme because cynageon i dont think changes any of the framework so you wont need to keep updating the theme evry night when theres a new one :L
*Sorry i have had 3 posts of just me*
lol, that's cool.
With regards to the Lockscreen, I am not sure that can work either as it integrates with other Samsung apps, Phone, Messaging etc. However, as of yet I can't even find where it is in the ROM dump . If you get anywhere with it or the widgets let me know
Hope you dont mind, but ive asked on villain rom if anyone can convert it fo froyodvillian.

No not at all
I did originally do a version for FroydVillain, but they have not included the CM options to change the colours of the Clock, Date etc... so with the dark notification bar it looks a bit odd, not so much for the date but the clock looks like a blank space. Maybe someone there can edit the relevant xml file to change it or find a way to add in the CM Settings into the ROM.

just a suggestion.. better make a change log
a log of anything you modify in cm7 rc4
Go launcher is the best but it consumes a little space from the top for running apps, apps etc
so i would suggest u to use the adw launcher as it is good and gives a feel of android original launcher

I like your rom but
Font in not beautiful
TouchWiz launcher is very nice but i hope app name in app drawer is bigger
You can add roboto font in your rom
I want Status bar and noification bar look like htc
Please disable on/off toggles . I don't like it . because very laggy and not useful ( look like ICS)
Could you change icon ( dialer, messaging, contacts,etc) look like SGS II

hey thnxx for ur suggestion ...will look into it....kk
I too like Your Rom ,but
really you need to change the Font ,
one more suggestion is reduce a much running apps as possible(background apps)
because mini has less ram , so make it more efficient in terms of ram

[Q] flash buil.prop through CWM ?

Hi, is it possible to flash buil.prop through CWM ? The idea is I would like to play with the DPI, but I know some values can mess up the system so that the ROM doesn't boot anymore. So the idea is to have a safe and working build.prop as flashable through VWM so that I can experiment without the threat of having to reinstall the whole ROM.
Is that doable ? and would it be sufficient to boot again on a ROM if I put a bad value as DPI ?
Thanks
I may be wrong, but afair one of the DPI apps available on Market, had an option whether to reapply the change on boot
if I'm correct, then you could test the density without risk
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
I didn't find the app (searched for "DPI" and "density") but one of the app had a description saying you can restore build.pro through adb...so i'll look in that direction.
LCD density will allow you to test a dpi before applying it. Its on play store.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Well, it almost works. I'm on (TW based) Criskelo's v8, changed the DPI to 213, first with LCD density and then with ROM toolbox. I thought it would just boot loop, but
- except for touchwiz, launchers (Go, zeam, adw, apex (small area usuable on desktop though, but maybe it's supposed to work that way)) are ok,
- the s-apps I want work ok : camera, FM radio (I tried S-memo just for the sake of it, it has that well known lines problem)
- s-calendar was replaced by AOSP calendar and it works fine..though I don't see any difference with phone version...maybe because it was not "correctly" installed ?
- gmail, settings, kindle, chrome work as expected in tablet mode. Kindle had to get an update to work in tablet mode, before that it showed the regular phone version.
Now what doesn't work :
- I got that "UI.syst stopped" on every boot (don't care much about it)
- s-contacts doesn't work ! unfortunately I couldn't find a working AOSP contacts.apk, maybe that would work
- s-phone works so that's more important than s-contacts, but the layout is messed up, and you can't use contacts inside the app of course. Unfortunately I don't know of a AOSP dialer for TW roms,
- most annoying negative point to me : status bar doesn't show ! that may be the deal breaker for me.
I went to TW roms because I was tired of little things that didn't work in AOSP based roms, so if I can't find solutions for at least s-contacts and status bar, that's it for me I won't go any further in my quest of TW + tablet mode apps.

For the dialler, can you set one handed operation in settings (possibly under accessibility) that usually brings it back under operational state. Not sure about a fix for tw contacts though. There are alternative contacts and dialler apps in play store if you search dialler.
Use an alternative launcher for status bar? Recommend adw or launcher7 if you like windows phone layout, both work well. Adw probably more suitable for tablet dpi.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Unfortunately I tried an alternative dialer from the market, it displayed contacts correctly but FC'd as soon as I clicked on a contact, so I think it relies somehow on the TW contact app or framework. As for the status bar, it's never displayed whatever launcher I tried (Go, adw,zeam, apex,launcher pro), so I guess it's part of the framework and not of the launcher.

[REQ] Tablet UI/Navbar?

Is it possible to get a tablet style navbar on the xperia z?
i know there is a rom on android development that can do that, but it only works in landscape.
any idea if it is possible?
The PAC rom includes the paranoid which allows you to use tablet UI everywhere have it and it's fantastic

i wanted the same thing too so i tried installing Xposed framework + TabletUI module
i soft rebooted the phone and i can see that TabletUI is applied, just that everything is oversized (till this stage, all is fine)
but when i tried to change the dpi using Density changer available on play store to 240dpi and reboot, i had bootloops....
so tablet ui actually works on stock rom...but somebody has to figure out a way to change dpi without causing bootloop
i had to restore my phone after applying 240 dpi...so DON'T CHANGE dpi!!!!!
Dude, tons of us have changed DPI... I myself have it at 320. 240 sounds incredibly low, though.
just wanna clarify, i dont wanna do this through DPI changing lol, i wanna keep everything in the same size/proportion, just a different layout, if you know what i mean....

[i9020T][MODS][CM9/ICS] Volume keys cursor control + battery styles

Hello,
I have been using CM 10.1.x for a couple months but I had to downgrade to CM9 for performance reasons and few bugs. I'm very happy with CM9 and I have finally my notifications working.
However, a few mods from CM10 are missing and I would like to know if it was possible to port them to CM9. Among with these mods, the volume keys cursor control (system wide, not with stock kb) is REALLY handy and missing and it'd be nice to have the circle them for the battery style.
If anybody could help me with that, I would be very thankful. :good:

Yea I checked them out but I'm really looking for the CM 10+ Battery Circle that rotates when charging. The fx was real nice.
I'm trying out some of them...
Also, I figured out about the AM/PM things of XBlastTools, you have to set to default value in the CM panels then you can pick whatever you want in XBT.
