Is there any mods to use AOSP style multitasking? I would just try an AOSP rom but i'm a bit worried about the bricking problems.

I think there are some ROMs with that as an option, but I'm not sure which ones off the top of my head. Check the OPs.
swapps
theres an App called Swapps that allows you to kind of do the whole multitasking thing, check it out i believe its in the play store and i used it on my E3D and actually liked it a lot and just havent actually re installed it. check it out and let us know what you think.

This is my first attempt at Rom development. After flashing many Roms from great developers here on XDA I have decided to try my hand at it. I'm sure you might ask what's different about this Rom compared to others you have already used. All I can say is this, I have taken the elements that I have grown to love from my favorite Roms and Themes and baked it into something I can be happy with. I hope you will be happy too!
-This is a work in progress-
Everything is not quite what I want yet, I still have a ways to go.
Link is in 2nd post!
Here is what I have so far
I am working on converting all green elements to red- not quite there yet but close.
-Features-
Deodexed and Zipaligned
Bloatware removed
This is based on the latest build 3.26.605.1
My thanks go out to all the great developers that have brought us this far!
Specifically I would like to thank
lllboredlll for pointing me in the right direction for the "Notification Menu Power Control Widget" you can find this here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=853667
snq- for the power menu reboot option http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=776495
Disclaimer- Flash at your own risk
Full wipe is recommended
To do list-
Convert all green elements to red -still missing some png's
5 column app drawer
Most recent apps in notification
Theme sense lock screen bar to red
Theme rosie dock bar to red
Change log-
v.01 For testing
v.02
Geared Romage v.02
Nice! I've yet to try and cook up my own rom, but I'd imagine it's a huge learning experience. Looking forward to seeing more of your releases as they continue to get better and better.
I love the look if it good work

So I was just thinking and the notifications will probably be a little too "filled" with the recent apps there too. I personally use my phone alot while im usb tethering and more stuff pushing the notifications downward would be very annoying to me. Just a little thought i had.

Well that was just a thought I had. I am working on a few things right now. The recent apps idea was one, but you are right, so i may look at some other ideas.
How is it working so far?
Nice ROM, I Haven't Installed It Yet. But I Have Two Questions:
1. Can We Change The Font In Your ROM Into The System Default?
And Two
2. Can We Change The Battery Icon? I Personally Don't Like The Number Percentage On The Battery.
Other Than That, I Like The Look Of Your ROM, Good Job!
I Went Ahead And Installed The ROM Last Night, Overall Quick And Snappy ROM.
The Only Things That I Didn't Like Was The Themed Market, Also It May Just Be Me But My Battery Drained Pretty Quickly On This ROM Which I Found Strange. Not Sure Why.
Other Than That, Great And Snappy ROM. I Look Forward To Seeing What You Cook Up Next For This ROM
I am working on a Theme port atm so that is why I have been so slow for an update. You should see this Theme this weekend as long as I can get the original Themer to reply with a go ahead permission. I am also working on some new updates to this Rom so hopefully if all goes well you should see an update to it as well.

The font is something I had for myself, you can get those from many places. If you have trouble locating them just PM me and I will point you in the right direction.

I have been getting great battery life, but I don't know what apps you are using so I can't diagnose what the problem is. I will work on fixing the market theme this weekend before my next update. I appreciate your comments, it only makes me better at this!
So I have looked around for lockscreen mods for CM6 and I haven't found any. I know there are a lot for things like Fresh with the rotary lockscreen. Something similar to the following would be amazing:
Rotary with two buttons:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=670034
Rotary with four buttons:
http://android-themes.net/android-lordsmiff-woz-ere-theme-for-g1.html
Four buttons at bottom:
http://android-themes.net/android-plastic-silver-theme.html
If anyone has any information about this, I would really appreciate it! Thanks!
I know some of these images are in our roms, cm6 roms at least. The 2 button rotary looks cool, I am gonna flash it BRB may take a few, might have to nandroid back LOL.
UPDATE...
Dont look good for the home team I got boot looped after the flash. I know some of the images for this are already in our roms, it would prob just need to be edited/ported over. I cant help you there, sorry. I would like to see the 2 button option if anybody knows how to fix this
Thanks

I figured it would because the framework is different for CM and fresh as far as I understand. Sucks

Yeah but it was worth a shot There must have been a idea to include these lock screens on cm6.1 at one time because the rotary arrows for the lock screen are in the current cm6.1 rom!
well, ive been reading around, and the current CM6.1.1 has the rotary lockscreen somewhere in the options. i dont want to use a sense rom just to get this super awesome feature. i would die without the notification toggles. so, if we can get the piece from the new source, then things will be good, right?

Not sure what you mean? Cm6 isn't sense based... And yes, the most recent cm's have the option to use the standard sliders or the rotary.
Sent from my 2.2 Hero
The nightlys have the options and Jaybob413's roms which is based off CM6 has this option as well.

Hey guys, I had a quick minute to visit xda so I'll point you guys towards this thread
It has TONS of different looking lockscreen mods.
I've been following it since the beginning of December, trying out more than a handful without any problems.
Hope this is along the lines of what you're looking for

no, i mean that the mods in the OP are for 2.1 sense based roms. im running cm6.1, and i dont want to go to the sense roms just for a lockscreen. i use the notification widgets too much for me to live without them now. but i was messing around in the cyanogen github, and i think i found some of the new parts for the rotary lockscreen... but i dont know what to do with them. i have little programming/system knowledge to this extent, so yeah.

Why would you need to do anything as the rotary lock is already built into cm as early as nightly 187? Unless you are using an older version, the option is in cm settings.

i was using friend's iphone and was wondering that is there any customizes app like intelliscreen which helps to modify the notification center/notification bar. i don't want lock screen customization i want notification customization..
any suggestion?
and to all developers if any such thing is not yet there try developing it, i would and many other would consider buying such app!

it cannot be done in android as every manufacture use different method for their systemui.apk like Samsung give toggles in notification but HTC do not and like this there are so many difference so universally it is not possible but can be done for a set of custom rom, apple is the single manufacturer for iPhone and uses same method for building everything.
also there is one for cm9 roms which lets you do some modification in statusbar(don't remember the name though)
okay thanks anyways for reply.
I wonder if it would be possible to port quick settings from a Rom like CM to the standard Rom. I remember doing similar things with my Kindle fire (imported jelly bean background picture picker ans htcs live picture picker.)
PS: Don't be offended if this question is stupid somehow, i'm still an android noob, only used to ios modification

the standard rom has quick settings too, on 4.2.2
I'd like to know, too. TrickDroid has great QuickSettings and it would be awesome if it could be flashed to other 4.2.2 sense-based ROMs.
There are a couple of applications on the Play Store that install QuickSettings for you, like Widgetsoid which was my main one when I had the HTC One X.

Yeah, but it's nice to have it in the notification pulldown as well. It's 'quicker' that way.

If you swipe down with 2 fingers you get extended settings.... just as quick!
I know, but I always hold the device with one hand and use my thumb to tap, so it's not very practical for me.
Hey there,
This has probably been answered before. so a simple redirect would be ok.
I love the stock look of the N7000 (menu buttons and locker) but all of the 4,3 roms have the Nexus menu buttons and app locker suck. I find those horrible to use.
First question... what would it be called (kinda nooby when it comes to launchers and such).... Are they called AOSP or AOKP or something.. or is it completely different.
Are there any roms which look like the stock rom.. but with enhanced features with the new 4.3 features?
Thanks in advance.
Ricky
aosp, aokp, cm, miui are just rom types.
By saying menu buttons you mean the whole look of an interface. You mean You want this stock 4.1.2 samsung blue stuff?
Because if this is what You want you may want to download samsung theme for cm from the google play.

I'm using PA myself and it allows for nice customization when it comes to looks. Have you tried that? There are also a few fun launchers that might solve your cosmetic issue. Is it mostly the new DPI settings you're having trouble with? Or just the general art style of Android?

I haven't tried PA yet. Next on the list.
I am looking for a stock icons/colour scheme, the apps logo not to look like the nexus variation of droid. Just me being an oldschool stock visuals.

I'm currently running Lungo ROM (android 4.0.4) because it's light.
If You are searching for more functions use PA, or the best "Jellybam".
That's the best ROM ever, but it uses a LOOOOT of memory.
