This attitude frosts me

This sanctimonious attitude of "just get over it and use it the way we want you to" is PRECISELY why I don't have an iPad iPhone iMac iPod iAnything from frickin "WE KNOW WHAT'S BEST FOR YOU WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT" Apple.

I dare say I'm not alone!
[Nexus 7 General] blahblahyoutoo:
because higher resolution = smaller icons and fonts
[Nexus 7 General] CharliesTheMan:
I love the true tablet style UI on the launcher. Not the hybrid but the tablet where the status bar is on the bottom. Ergonomically having the tablet status bar and then swapping the soft buttons to the right corner and notifications to the left corner allows me to browse around the tablet with all the launcher buttons within easy reach of my bottom right thumb.
[Nexus 7 General] Hai Karate:
Flash that sucker and you can have any UI you want! ;)
[Nexus 7 General] brando56894:
Same here, I also miss the "tablet mode" on my N7. I would much rather have the navigation buttons on the bottom left and the clock/notification shade on the bottom right. I (and I assume most people) hold their tablets at the bottom while in portrait mode, it is kind of annoying to have to remove one hand and have to reach to the top of the screen to pull down the shade, then readjust my grip. As stated above, the top of the screen could be used for more app screen real estate instead of taking up space. Half of the space at the top and half the space at the bottom are just wasted space.
[Nexus 7 General] shaneydroid:
Well, speaking personally, I hold the N7 in one hand (resting against my palm with thumb holding one side and fingers holding the other) and the other hand to point and click in portrait mode.

I find it comfortable and natural.

I actually dislike the tablet UI and to me, this hybrid style is one of the things that attracted me to the N7.

I DO wish we had auto-rotate for the home screens but not the full tab UI.
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
I liked Moon+ reader so well I bought the Pro version. And definitely no problem with settings.

If you really have not figured it out - tap the center of the page to get to settings.

If I were to choose the ideal UI for the Nexus 7 - I would choose the stock one.
[Nexus 7 General] Hakizi:
As my dad has one, I can say from experience that it's terrible trying to use the "tablet" ui on such a small screen. The buttons like home and back are all just jammed together and you constantly hit the wrong ones.
[Nexus 7 General] player911:
I love tablet mode. I don't understand how it can be a pain. Maybe your referring to changing the DPI.

The proper method of tablet mode is not by changing the DPI. EOS is the best IMO. Keeps the DPI the same. Everything looks and works perfect. No weird gaps or empty spaces or app incompatibility.
[Nexus 7 General] Saturny:
I like it.

I mostly use portrait mode (UI doesn't matter to me, Mom has my old 10" tablet so I'm good), most of the apps I need, I can get on it (the others I can wait on or use them on my phone), and they look fine to me. I'm don't game on my tablet (maybe in the future), plus I never full the space on my android devices anyway. As for music, well, my Ipod Touch fills that role nicely. ;)
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
Tablet UI on 7 inch device is pathetic because 7 inch is supposed to be used most in landscape specially on home screen. That's the only way to put it. For 10 inch device tablet UI makes sense because those devices are designed to be operated in landscape mode. If you don't take my word for it then check out the camera location on Nexus 7 which is top in portrait mode and for a 10 inch camera is at top in landscape mode. Using tablet mode on N7 with camera on left or right side is wrong way to use it.

For portrait use this new jellybean interface is best as compared to tablet UI. I have used both and I like this new interface as compared to old interface where you have to tap twice to get the notifications and the place of notification is very bad. The notifications should always be at top i.e. where the notification bar is located. People who want to use tablet UI on such a small device is either too obsessed with past or don't have open mind for any useful change.

I used glaze rom for short while and you can turn on tablet interface on it with just one click but I turned it off within few minutes of use as it was useless. I even removed the glazed ROM altogether. Stock ROM is much better.
[Nexus 7 General] espionage724:
Tablet UI is nice, but it's the screen DPI I'm not a fan of on 7" devices. On my SGT7, 220 DPI felt the most comfortable to navigate through, but 160 DPI brought the Tablet UI. In that case, I usually ended up using Phone UI + 220 DPI.

With the Nexus 7 + Team EOS's nightly, I was able to still use the 213 DPI, get Tablet UI, and have a pretty enjoyable experience :) I also use Apex Launcher (not beta since I can't seem to get the menu button in top-right sadly).
[Nexus 7 General] MaddMan420:
The PA port IMO is the best for any DPI needs, especially on an app-to-app basis. I love being able to customize each app's DPI based on how the developer laid out the UI for any specific app. I hold my N7 in portrait almost exclusively (aside from YT and other video apps) with Apex Launcher beta for the JB features and I couldn't see myself going back to any hybrid or phablet UI. It really takes advantage of the screen resolution for our 7's, and gives me the real estate I need on my home screens and in the app drawer.
[Nexus 7 General] No_Nickname90:
I understand your pain. I'm running Apex Beta and I NEEDED gesture controls. I swipe up for my App Drawer and Swipe Down for my Notifications. I rooted, because I lyk my "menu" and "search" in the navigation bar area. So used to having a phone. LoL!!

[Nexus 7 General] dansan382:
i tried using "tablet UI" on mine for a day and i had to switch it back. everything was smushed on the settings pages and i lost my notification toggles on my AOKP rom when the "notification area" switched to the bottom right. just wasnt for me i guess on such a small device.
[Nexus 7 General] tribestros:
I ran tablet UI with the patch and absolutely hated it. It was horrible. Way too cramped. And unlike my TP, this was clearly meant to be used portrait and not landscape. I love the UI set up this way. Tablet UI on a 10" is great. Not on a 7".
[Nexus 7 General] SilentMobius:
I'm running at 160 DPI because I find the hybrid version of the launcher/split-system-bar to be much too annoying. The only place I've found issues is with closing tabs in chrome, sometimes I miss-tap. Otherwise having the notification area by my right thumb feels so much more natural
[Nexus 7 General] BrianDigital:
Yes and no, notifications being at the top is alttle odd when holding in either portrait or landscape. But this will be totally opinion based, so how cares how someone like their tablet
[Nexus 7 General] player911:
The navigation buttons are about the same size in tablet mode as in phone mode on EOS nightlies with 213 DPI
[Nexus 7 General] Nascar Dog:
I'm loving my Nexus 7 now that it is running a true tablet UI.

Hi guys

I'm currently running mwakious3Drom and was just wondering if there was a way to replace the Sense 3.6 notification bar with the Sense 4.0 one or Stock ICS? I find the current one is super laggy in comparison to the other two. I remember I recently used a Sense 3.6 ROM (I forget which one) where the Aroma installer allowed me to use the ICS notification bar with it, but I also remember there being certain bugs which prompted me to switch ROM.

Thanks.

It Works ok if im less than 5 meters away from server. But anything over that and its unusable. I work about 10 meters from the server. And I get at least 2 - 3 bars of signal out of 4. And I can't even post a comment on here. The speed is very fast for about 30 seconds and then ridiculously slow. It also struggles to connect. Tries about 3 or 4 times before it connects. I'm running cm10 on s3 but have this problem on stock, omega and checkrom. I had simular problems with the s2 aswell but not s1. I don't want to use wifi kill as its my work and it might not solve the problem. Is this the s3 working on networks with multiple apns? Is there a code I can call to turn off power saving ?? Can't force to 5ghz either.

Some advice would be massively helpful. I am getting very frustrated.

I believe the problem lies in network or in the wifi router. Maybe it's overloaded, try on-off cycling the router and see if it works then?

I kinda doubt that the issue is in the phone
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slking1989:
I've fixed it now mate. Well chuffed. Don't know what it was really. But the method I used in above thread worked. It all started when I first rooted and flashed omega. Cm9 got rid of the authentication error (so it seems Sammy is at fault there) as for the WiFi range of about 3 meters and no connectivity after that distance. I'm not sure. Perhaps a problem deep in the settings I could not find. But completely wiping all settings worked. Not ideal. But confirmed working all day at work. So maybe a omega fault I don't know. Jus happy to have fixed it
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fbtechinfo:

Hi guys,

I've been trying to root an SGS for 4-5 hours now and no success. I've tried one click methods and I tried Odin, but it doesn't recognise the phone. I did searches on xda and google but nothing I found worked. Maybe the problem lies because this phone is locked on 02 uk?

The current phone info is:

firmware: 2.1-update1

baseband: I9000ADJM1

kernel: 2.6.29root@se-s609 #2

build number: eclair.adjm1

* Also, I cannot boot into recovery or download mode with the 3-button thing*

I'm trying to root this and put the jellybean beta 3 on it. I'm doing this for a friend, so I'm not familiar with SGS rooting and flashing, I'm on a HTC desire myself and I found rooting that a breeze.

I would really appreciate it if someone could let me know how to root this thing and upgrade it, preferably a method that works with the O2 phone.

Sorry again if this information has been posted but I've been unable to find anything.

Thanks in advance,

Vlad

To unlock your sgs i9000 try an app on google play (https://play.google.com/store/apps/...sMSwyLDEsImNvbS5oZWxyb3ouZ2FsYXh5c3VubG9jayJd) and some others (https://play.google.com/store/search?q=unlock+sgs)

For your root kernel (flash the zip in pda in odin) check out Chainfire's root kernels from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=788108 Pretty extensive list so you should get sorted.

If you can't find the root kernel, try updating your official samsung firmware using the samsung kies software which you can download from their website. I did this with my i9000 and got onto 2.3.4 gingerbread and upgraded from there.

Hope this helps?

No. It doesn't matter if it is Carrier locked or not. As for OP:

1. Flash semaphore ICS kernel via Odin in PDA

2. Then boot into recovery from there

3. Now flash the jellybean ROM

4. Now reboot recovery and wipe data/factory reset from new recovery.

5. Enjoy. Also I recommend either slim bean or cm9 for your ROM, since they are aosp and compiled from source.

Also FYI the only stand alone kernel that works with jellybean is devil kernel rc3

DISCLAIMER: If your place of employment's exchange policy

requires

the use of a pin, please be advised that use of these apks may be punishable up to termination of employment, as well as other possible legal action. Some companies take their exchange security VERY seriously and this mod is only for those whose policy does not require a pin but are unnecessarily prompted to enter one anyway. Please speak with your IT department before using these files as I will not be held responsible for any mis-use of this app or any collateral damage that may ensue. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. In the event you need to get back to stock, I have also posted stock apks below which will get you back to stock. Download the 'Return to Stock' link, unzip the downloaded file, and then just push them to /system/app/

Below is the Mail and Exchange apks for the S3 with exchange security disabled. This is for those who use exchange support at work, but who hate entering a pin or password every time they want to unlock their phone. Many of us use low-level security corporate exchanges that don't require a pin, so the apk files below remove that security.

1) Delete any exchange email accounts from your phone and remove any shortcuts to the mail app from your device

2) If applicable, remove any exchange administrators from Settings -> Security -> Device administrators

3) Download the 'Hacked Mail apks' file linked below. THIS IS NOT A FLASHBLE ZIP. The apk files were just too big for XDA's upload limit and so I had to zip them up and host them online. Once downloaded, unzip and grab out the 2 apk files inside (SecEmail.apk and Exchange.apk)

4) Mount your phone's system as R/W (either using Root Explorer or 'adb remount')

5) Copy the newly downloaded SecEmail.apk and Exchange.apk files to system/app/ via root explorer and overwrite the older file if/when it asks, or you can just push the files to system/app via adb

6) Set permissions on both apks as rw-r--r--

7) Reboot

8) After reboot, create a shortcut if you want and then open up the Email app and set up your corporate account.

7) You will be prompted to enable security policy midway through... this is normal so hit 'OK' and it will not ask you to enable security any further.

As previously mentioned in the disclaimer, you can use the Stock apks to get back to stock if you run into any issues. Just download the 'Return to Stock' link below, extract the 2 apks out, and follow the same process as above.

Donations always appreciated. Enjoy :)
