[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bmg1001:
Yes it is. What I want is the tablet style home screen with the phone style app drawer.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cd78:
Hmm, I have a missing gallery in the latest build. "App not installed"

Anyone else?

Anyway, just pulled the apk from an older gapps zip. Seems ok now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MrBlackbriar:
Same with "250+ Solitaire Collection" (hey, shut up, it's a great way to kill time :P). It has a layout for 320dpi and one for <320dpi, yet only one layout is shown in PA settings.

Other than that, I love the new way to control layouts! Great work, PA team!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] VirtualXDriver:
Had the same happen to me when trying to launch the camera from a shortcut on my home screen after flashing 1.9.5.

Please delete the shortcut and recreate it. Launching camera and gallery from the app drawer works fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nonione:
hey im using 1.9.6 now but its not working for some apps, for example mlb atbat 12 used to be able to put it in 'tablet mode' now it only shows up in phone mode and theres only one option in the layout/UI setting menu which is 360px
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adeklipse:
Sorry if this has been adressed before; I went back 8 pages but there was nothing, so I'm posting.

My SystemUI is currently 240dpi @ 720px (tablet mode). On previous versions, the recents app list would be on the left side of the screen, directly above the navigation buttons. But in this PA version, the recents list are in the middle. This isn't actually a problem, but it does bug me that my thumbs have to reach all the way to the center of the screen to scroll and activate.

Any way I could fix that? (I tried rebooting and testing other dpis. No luck).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
i know jb stock. pa is as fast as that and faster with a decent kernel. you did something wrong dude. theres nothing slower and nothings affected because we're not changing system dpi. if you dont define an app its not even touched by us, it is run by pure aosp. i did install kernels though that made JB HORRIBLY laggy so you gotta watch out for that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
thats fine. its not so easy to get them all. apps in rare cases can hide that. we're putting an override button there soon. in the meantime just edit properties.conf and youre good. for most apps it works, not sure if we can make the automatic extraction work for all but its infinitely better than just slapping three predefined values in there.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
dude, cm10. cm10. cm10. hundred million times. cm10 is not even in nightly stage. please wait for them to merge their features. i dont give a crap right now about toggles, im working on hybrid and it costs all the time that i have.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
same. override manually. some apps are tricky to get right because they simply dont expose the info that we need. it can be we will never reach it, but a button for you to enter manual values when in doubt will be included.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
thx, will do. ::]

whatever floats your boat. im sure it'll work just perfect with those. i change the op, i guess i worded it in the wrong way. i planned to leave it stock but the cm kernel i compiled, well ... let it run for once and see for yourself. drugged tablet mode :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jefbuan:
camera not working?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Vangelis13:
Ooops, +1 on that
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
yeah, i just saw that aswell. i guess it'd be too easy if you could just compile and everything would work right away wouldn't it. sigh. im trying it with a new repo today and a fresh build and let's see what that will do, fresh fixes are coming up aswell - i have a couple ideas for that recents window and im trying hard to kill those weird gaps in the notification center. please bear with me here, just learning all this stuff. :o
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Vangelis13:
Can you perhaps make it as a cwm-flashable patch? That be great if we could just flash the camera fix.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
all coming updates you can dirty flash. i'll upload to both RS & MF then. you can just wipe caches on those and thats fine, no factory reset needed. but for now i have no idea why its not working, its compiling right now and later i'll see if that alone fixes it. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] borneanheadhunter:
great looking there. look like another keeper. Widgets still dont resize properly though, maybe its the widget issue not the rom. to small to read even in huge setting and the color correction is off. camera too. loving the rom and looking forward at the fix.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jefbuan:
if you can add settings for widgets button on notification settings..i can see default buttons only..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
yep, nova settings/behavior/resize all widgets

i'll see what i can do about apps that are to small. its definitively on my list, although first come easy and obvious fixes, layout and such

camera is because of a botched build i guess, i'll figure it out

color correction is off only in the default kernel, flash another one and it'll be fine
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] borneanheadhunter:
Looking forward to this man. A breath of fresh air indeed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xchatter:
Looks great.

You'll figure all out in some time.

Keep up the good work. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mrcojocaru:
This is exciting! Can't wait for the next release
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
will take some time now, repo sync just crashed, sorry. :o

in the meantime, it would be nice if you could take it up with build 0.0 and see if you'd like something to be changed. statusbar changes, notificationcenter changes, stuff like that. i can implement them blind to some extent and compile later.

didnt touch gtalk. but yeah some apps are too small. huge fonts help alot though, try it. in the future im planing to change this - im thinking sort of an per app dpi setting should do. but this will be complicated and i need to learn alot before i can pull it off, if ever. the navbar swap would be possible, quite easy even, but i don't think many would dig it like that, i for one wouldn't. :D let's do it like this, if i've made a good foundation and all that linux/build-env becomes easier for me i can drop extra CWM flash packages for optional changes, something like a modular rom. but give me some time. come back to me with that request when you see it's going well - then i'll do it. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
so quite a few people wrote me and we'll have it compiling on several machines soon i hope. then you toro user won't have to wait. camera fix is in sight aswell. thannxxxx guys, this is gonna be cool! :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] foreman31:
Please ask someone to help with Talk, one of the apps I need working.

Apart from that, awesome rom
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] darrenng_ff:
I love you guys work. Excellent
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] flupke70:
This looks awesome! Keep pu, i Will try this and hiver you feedback soon! Cheers from paris!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
can you make snapshots? whats wrong with it? haven't used it before. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bavilo:
Would it be possible that you switch to an entirely different base rom? Such as AOKP or better yet Liquid?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sphinxy:
I believe molesarecoming went with CM9 in the end because it had less "problems" when trying the "Hybrid" mode.

Not sure what you'll gain by going with AOKP/Liquid base over CM9 tho, however in his thread over at the Theme's section, you can see the whole process unfold.

Not saying it is out of the question for the future tho.

(sorry, didnt mean to hijack and respond as i believe you were asking molesarecoming - just wasnt specific toward who you asked tat question).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] giangishanghai:
back to the topic

hi all,

just to come back to the topic.......

taking in consideration that i dont want to bother anyone, any news about the update? :p

i found this rom really good and solid, i have in mind to keep it for a daily use, almost for work...... i am sure will not regret my point of view.

cheers
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
since my repo fetch got stuck at 99% last night im uploading a preview. it will be based on a nightly instead, has the new per-app-dpi feature, includes all the apps that you guys collected and brings the new trebuchet fixes. especially trebuchet had some blemishes left that i wanted to kill for the release (peanuts though, really), but i'll do it in the next version then. im calling this one "preview." i guess in an hour or so you have it, im using mediafire again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nordpolcamper:
dont worry, if he buys an S3 and stops this rom, then I will find him and kill his S3^^

YES YES YES YES YES!!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] giangishanghai:
thanks indeed

cheers
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sweetpiggy:
yes DEVICE can dies.... but, if you put 50 gb of stuff on dropbox closd.... what appen when dropbox delete the 50gb of space and ALL your file?

tou have to redownload before promo will end ;)

no more OT for me sorry :p

@molesa

preview will be GOLD for crackflasher as us XD
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nordpolcamper:
thanks molesarecoming ;)

OT: does anyone know, where the right part background of the settings menu is located?^^
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sweetpiggy:
hey nordpole!

can you share with us the way to put full black instead of ****ty ics gradient on setting background? :)

(i think this could be very amazing if integrated in rom... how do you think molesa?)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Benji1983:
still uploading :-(

want to flash ^^
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] seakins:
That would be sweeeeet!! :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
yes, im open to it. im thinking abpout a new section called "optional" for modular patches applied via cwm. if a themer wants to team up with me youre welcome. i have to warn you though, when im sunken in code im like that stuck repo last night, unresponsive --- it can freak some people out as i have learned in my short stint as a rom dev.

another thing. i need your help for something --- for the frontpage i'd like to make new snapshots. i want to show some differences between hybrid mode and build.prop tablet mode. im searching for ugly pictures, like extremly small facebook, scewed keyboard, horrible ugly recents window, etc. anyone feels like flashing another rom, setting up buildprop (ro.sf.lcd_density=192 / qemu.hw.mainkeys=1) and snapping a few shots that make our fangs grow? :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
20120504v0.4preview: Apps were too small? Problem solved!

First ever Android ROM with Per-App-Density feature, it once and for all solves the problem that was tablet mode. You never, ever have to deal with apps that are too small again since now you can decide how apps, systemapps, framework-elements and even widgets are scaled by defining their native dpi seperately from the system DPI. Its an experimental feature and for now these values are defined in your /system/build.prop - it has drawbacks (maily notifications can look a bit strange), but that will be fixed in time. Warning: Keyboards MUST run in system DPI!

A list of apps and predefined values is included, this should include most of what you need. everything else is blown up to 210 dpi per standard. if you still need apps to be bigger, get a build.prop editor from the market, edit and reboot.

Trebuchet fixes: Folder Name cut-off, landscape name cut-off, divider bars

Please set your Font to "Normal" in the System Settings, you won't need "Huge" anymore and all this does now is provoke overlapping.

link's up!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zipredictive:
It doesnt work ... need to understand what is the bg location with tablet mode
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] giangishanghai:
thanks man,

i believe we have to flash via recovery right?

cheers

---------- Post added at 06:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:46 PM ----------

thanks a lot! dwnl now

i am sure it will be a win-win project

cheers and greetings for your work
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zipredictive:
yes flash via cwm... tried on cm9 and other few roms and it always worked... hope it works for paranoidandroid too.... Ill check asa I flash this preview release...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sweetpiggy:
very thanks filippo! :)

soo...

mans we have to find a great themers for the team :)

spread the voice over xda XD
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] giangishanghai:
i am doing the same, just 2 minutes more..........

cheers
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Immorten:
This ROM is soo sweet! :D

Loving it, keep up the good work!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zipredictive:
nope it doesnt change the background maybe there are 2 bg 1 for smartphones 1 for tablets.... I remove the zip and Ill check it...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
im not sure if drawable no-dpi applies to tablets aswell. for pure colored stretchable surfaces maybe, but gradients are probably in xhdpi. but this goes over my head, im not a themer - just a guess.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] giangishanghai:
your zip is working good.

thanks indeed

cheers
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MrBlackbriar:
It's a temporary implementation. AOSP doesn't have Project Butter in the recents menu, so moles included the Phone-mode version for now, which is much smoother.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
the old recents sucked badly. horrible honeycomb code. software rendered and laggy as hell. we ported googles new jellybean implementation to tabUI, plus project butter with full hardware acceleration. my goal with this is not to create or mimmic "tablet mode," im trying to find a good ballance and get the best from both worlds.

im not yet done with recents - it will be a horizontal scroller when its finished.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cap'nC:
Thank you. I really wanted to read an answer like this, as a force option was the first solution that came to my mind.

This new approach to layouts is way better than the old one, because it is immediately known if an app can be projected to the desired UI.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sam razzy:
After flashing this Rom.. I'm getting a weird line on the Phone dialer ? What is that ?

Sent from anGry BiRd Nexus Prime
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dehosti:
Why the battery can't increment 1%??? It's difficult to add this future??

I want to put circlebattery but with no 1% increment it's bad
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] D4rKn3sSyS:
I did just forgot a little thing on ParanoidPreferences 2.0. Because of that configuration must be broken on maguro build.

I can't upload my build here because it needs system signatures, and my overlays are different (HDPI vs XHDPI), but anyway, moles will upload the patch soon, don't worry

Blame me, dont blame moles or the ROM, I'm sorry :p

EDIT: Nvm seems moles was lucky and didn't catched the bug
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
You set contacts to tabUi. The rom was configured like this:

com.android.contacts.dpi=%rom_default_dpi

com.android.contacts.layout=%rom_default_layout

So for the millionst time, contacts/dialer has a broken tab layout. Broken by design not broken by us. Set it to default, as it was, and youre good.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
I dont care about peanuts right now.

1. I have real work to do. Hybrid takes my concentration, not features that will be in cm tomorrow or a week later.

2. Cm is pre nightly. It would be stupid to fix things as their own patches will create conflicts with ours.

3. I dont see myself baiting the impatient with stuff that cm currently does not yet have.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dehosti:
Thx. Now I understand. I was not complaining, just asking.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Da Kine:
Can someone please post a mirror of the latest update? I cant get the page to load.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jotacorredor:
OK, Testing this thing for some hours now and I must say this is way to cool... I'm yet to figure out what mode I like the most but so far I really really like this ROM. The mail issue I reported earlier is gone after a couple of reboots and everything is working great so far...

anyway awesome job!! many thanks to developer for the hard work put into this.

slds,

bleh it working now !
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] curious_yellow_eyes:
I didn't install 1.9.6 yet, but with 1.9.5 I found that circle battery works fine if it's included with a theme. Try Uber Jelly from the market it's almost stock but with circle battery and some other common mods.

sent from "parts unknown" with my Paranoid GNex
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kocai:
I think goo.im was down for a while. Luckily I stayed up until 4AM to download it :D

1.96 is just too cool.

Edit: anyone else having issue with the LED? Mine seems doesn't work whenever I got notifications. On CM10 Jellybro several people also reported a problem with LED notifications.

Edit2: never mind. It works now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GeekMcLeod:
You could have downloaded it from my sig or you can always ask to join my shared dropbox folder. :)

I have almost 30 people in the folder and get PMs about it daily. I'm actually downloading and syncing 1.9.6 for toro and toroplus to be shared the same way with dropbox.

Btw Moles, I love the way PA settings find the UI of apps. I love the different ways I can view the playstore, gmail, youtube and contacts. Probably a bit more too but those are the ones I remember.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jotacorredor:
Just enable them in system /display and check use custom values...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kocai:
Well I figured last night you just starting to upload it and I just couldn't wait :p

Next time I probably would download it from your Google drive though. Thank you :)

Yeah I already did before when I first flashed PA1.95 and strangely it seems working now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crazyg4merz:
is there anybody who can't get permission in adb? I'm on 1.95a and my computer is running ubuntu which can't transfer files using mtp, and I need adb, is it a CM bug? Is it fixed in 1.96a?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pakjebakmeel:
Torrents 1.9.6a

Torrents up for 1.9.6a
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
MenuKey mod up for 1.9.6a

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gagaohlala:
Now un 196 i can't switch apex un tab mode x( any idea plz ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] decalex:
Awesome -- thk u sir!

were there changes to the sysui from 1.9.5 to 1.9.6?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
i was surprised, i found apps had tablet mode which i didnt know before since their layout containers sat higher than 720. playstore for instance. i really like choosing the actual one than fooling with fixed values. (-:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
first, in dev settings give adb right

second,

adb root

adb remount

now its works. its normal for cm, it has always been like this since ics. if you switch the kernel you get back the old behavior and you dont need adb root.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
works flawless. settings/paranoid/apps/apex/layout/2. 600px/apply ... start apex, tabUI
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DemonGloom:
BTW, anyone has facelock working on 1.9.6? Mine stopped working after update (shows default lockscreen with camera, GNow and unlock, after unlocking shows lockscreen with pin-code).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephyr1100:
Just updated to 1.9.6a.

Love the new PA Settings. Battery drains faster though (but only because it is such fun playin' around with settings ;))

In my opinion this ROM has overcome alpha status. Great work! Thanks so much...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Fishmanzero:
So it means no easy solution for 580px or higher right? :(

What about replacing the contacts app with a tap one?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephyr1100:
Just set FaceUnlock and it works perfect for me...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Rotary Heart:
Is this a bug? I refreshed the page and then...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MrMosoani:
Finally, I just flashed this ROM and this is my first time to be using this but was tempted so long ago (ICS).

Part of the hint (OP) is this:

"Reboot and edit your Apps Dpi & Layout under Settings/Paranoid Settings - DO NOT RESTORE YOUR OLD PROPERTIES FOR NOW"

**does that mean we should not restore all apps using Titanium?

**also, can you guys post your settings or where I can see some settings of yours so I could try those?

Thanks in advance!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
you mean the black holes?

certainly it is a bug, bug in the browser, that is - why youre telling me? : D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tijmen:
You can restore your apps with Titanium just fine, he means you shouldn't backup your settings regarding tablet mode and DPI and stuff. You should probably just try around a bit, it's quite easy.

@moles

Would the new xml allow us to add specific settings to specific apps? Like a longer screen timeout for the browser? And I mean not immediately, but more theoretically speaking for now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
no, that means you should not restore your hybrid settings from update to update.

you can use titanium, still, if you can use adb (or gnextolkit), its better and safer

you dont need settings, you just go and play around, its simple really
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
what xml? but in any way, no, settings are centralized in android. you change it here, 10 settingsobservers anywhere react on it, to make stuff like this app dependent would mean to rewrite a good deal of android.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
works perfectly. but it seems it has beef with another cm10 setting. if you have show widgets before unlock screen or something like that activated uncheck it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
the problem really is that the layout of the phone does not work in high-res. it is unfisnihed, that means you could even slap it onto a galaxy tab and it would look the same. unfortunately they have combined contacts and dialer. maaayyybe in future i can unlock activity hooking, then hybrid could affect different parts of an app, but that would be crazy complicated again and would, again, mean heavy re-doing of the app panel. right now you can hook one app and define how it's looking. i could also invest time to fix the layouts myself, but thats hard work as you need to sift through layers and layers of code finding a needle in a haystack.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dew.man:
No more DPI slider?

Didn't see this posted by anybody yet, but since 1.96, I can no longer adjust app dpi !?

The slider shows 0 and I can't move it.

This was a dirty flash over 1.95
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
1. dont restore your hybrid settings until we're leaving alpha. 1.96 has a totally revamped property model. i wanred you on the op and pretty much everywhere.

2. simply restore your properties under /settings/pa/restore/restore

3. please man, make my life easier and at least invest a minute trying to find out why somethings botched. :fingers-crossed:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DemonGloom:
Yes, that was the problem.. Though it never happened before..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
they're still working on it. people say nightlies are bleeding edge and can get rough, but cm10 is pre-nightly, basically patches are merged without much ado and in a later stage they'll deal with all the things that broke.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gautam_nexus:
@moles: for the next release can you add something like when we are in tablet mode the identity of the device changes to nexus 7. this will help us in installing apps from the market which are tablet only also. you can add it as an option in PA settings.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SprigganMaster:
I finally got the time to install ParanoidAndroid :)

Wow! Awesome job mole. It's really cool and I'm looking forward to the next updates.

What is the proper way to set the default system dpi to 240. (all apps)

Most of the time I edit system.prop and reboot.

Should I use the same method with pa? I don't want to mess the awesome tablet mode I'm using.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] molesarecoming:
/system/etc/paranoid/properties.conf

%user_default_dpi=240

you dont need to reboot, you can if you want. do not change /system/build.prop like you used to do it in the old days.

for everything else check the two big images in the second post, they teach you how to handle this rom.
