Sorry. This is only a cheap mode, actually, that enables the tablet UI on any ICS phone with a high DPI. The best thing that would actually fills that would be Paranoid ROM, but we need a good dev willing to port it to our XS when FXP release the needed sources. Until that, this is only what we can do.

I tried it on CM9 with XSIncredible Bass 3.1 and it works.

You don´t need a different launcher on cm9 and it works with sim card.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
Yeah. Search for a AOSP keyboard on Play Store for a better one.

I will edit later the first post with a few infos.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Cach123:
Okey, will try :P hmm.. Actually i liked best the tablet mode than "phone mode" but i will think that "phone mode" is better for daily use. i will use the tablet mode for a week and see if im getting used to it ;)

Edit: Anyway to have only the recent app button on the taskbar? Remove backbutton and home and menu?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] asdera58:
nice work

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mrsatan:
What we need is a way to toggle this on and off. This would be great for a lapdock.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
I think the only way (AFAIK) is Paranoid ROM. But almost all devs hate it (dirty hacks to framework-res.apk)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mrsatan:
What does it enable beyond dpi changes?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
I don't know what it does exactly. But if it were only DPI changes, then all the apps would work on phone or tablet mode. No both separated neither Phablet UI (I'm nothing more than a normal user who is trying to understand everything, and wants to do something more on the future :P ). Ask K900, it was he that said that for me.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mrsatan:
Hmmm I wonder what the advantages are then.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
As far as i understood, is that there COULD be problems with that. But it has some great advantages, IMO. I love tablet status bar and the UI for a lot of apps (settings, Gmail, YT, etc) But on some apps (Facebook) its almost unusable...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mrsatan:
I see, so it basically makes apps and such think that it is a tablet.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
Yeah. What did is what makes it think it's a tablet. That makes some apps think the phone is a phone, and other apps think it's a tablet.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Cach123:
Anyone knows or can mod it to not having the homebutton backbtton and menubutton on the statusbar? Just the multitaskingbutton.. Taking too much place!!!

Sent from Xpera S!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
I think it's almost impossible (or just too damn hard to do). The software buttons are, AFAIK, deeply integrated on the framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk.

And they don't take much space. Where the clock and notifications would go without the bottom bar? That's the main idea behind the Tablet Mode (without mentioning the good UI on a lot of apps).

@Topic: I noticed that, even with a modded Play Store, it does not recognize LOTS of apps. So I recommend going back to normal mode once a while to update apps.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Cach123:
Not remove the entire bottom bar... just the home button menu and back! :P

PLEASE HELP :D i really want to try this
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
The framework-res file is from the. 452 stock and you only need it if you already have on screen buttons. If there were any mods to your framework-res file, you need to move the original one from your ROM (unmoded). To apply to your ROM, open the build.prop on editor mode, look for this line: ro.sf.lcd_density and change the number after it from 320 to 192. Save and reboot.

I can change it for you if you want, but I will need your build.prop file

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Emrul:
Bro, As per my understanding this mod should work with stock bases rom (.55) XTXperience 7. But need to be sure whether Small App will work or not ? Confused. :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
I tried. You will have the mod, but no Small Apps. Oh, another pro tip: Disable any security you may have on lock screen (I had Pattern, dunno about others) and I got stuck on Boot animation.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Step_T:
I have the Xperia Acro S, and changing the lcd_density value to 192 whenever I wanted to use it in tablet mode worked great on the stock rom with Nova Launcher. My phone pretty much became a PC combined with a TV, Keyboard and Mouse.

I installed CM10 (FXP 150) just now and it doesn't seem to work anymore - changing the value results in the device not booting up, the boot animation doesn't even appear, it gets stuck with a black screen just after the FreeXperia logo, leaving me to do a hard reset and restoring a backup in CWM. Does anyone know if I just need to change something additional, or is tablet mode just generally not included in FXP ...?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
It is a JB ROM, so it has one. Try setting it 160. If still doesn't work, then I'm not sure. There isn't a Tablet mode on CM options? I haven't used CM10 since FXP 132, so...

You could also use a Paranoid ROM if there is one for Acro S. If there isn't one, I will talk to a dev and see if he can build for it. I will sign you as his tester, is they okay for you?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Step_T:
Yes, I tried using 160, same result. I'm thinking it's a JB thing, I just tried the same thing on my old phone (HTC Desire Z) running CM10 with the same result as well - probably some other changes have to be made for tablet UI to be correctly triggered. Only guessing, since the build.prop file on JB has a vastly different arrangement of values compared to ICS.

I have contacted ap030993 already for testing his Paranoid Android port - let's see how that works :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
He ported it to Acro S?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ARNOB:
Thanks, works perfectly on ion.. :D

Why don't u post a tutorial at OP to manually change lcd density. :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Step_T:

[MENTION=4204411]Felimenta97[/MENTION] I have been messing with this a bit on my Ion. I have xposed framework, per app dpi, and xposed tablet mod. I am on JB and have tried the LCD hack at 192dpi. It works but nothing will trigger the tablet status bar. I did find out if you set the stock home to 160dpi @ 800x1280 it forces the launcher into tablet mode. Again though it wont combine the status bar.

I have found a few threads that I think may help but I have yet to figure out modding the classes.dex file. I found a thread in the Note 2 section for a tablet mod without dpi change. It seems there are some options in the smali files that allow the changes to happen. On 4.2 + it seems Google have cleaned up the code to hide this function and I think Sony may have done the same thing.

Now if I use the tab ui mod for xposed it will force the tablet status bar but would be more suited for a aosp style rom. I want to try and get this to work like stock and it seems very possible. Any help or ideas??
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
Mate, when we get "our" ROM is it possible to make only dual view in settings (like we have in PAC)?

Nothing else, just settings and maybe email?

Remember - it'll be Honami (if that changes something)

See ya...

BTW...where are you, not a word of you in a months (hangouts)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zackspeed:
You can do that now with xposed and per app dpi. My thing is to try and make this work as stock on a stock rom. I am getting closer as I have got into the classes.dex file but of course it is written differently from aosp. So I am now trying to decipher what I need to change. I want to try and get some of our more talented guys to help but trying to get closer before asking or maybe they will be intrigued to help.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:
I was talking about stock.

I know for exposed but I asked Felimenta because it's honami framework...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
That module for Xposed works somehow, that I haven't figured how yet, that changes it to Tab UI. The problem is that it doesn't changes the SystemUI DPI to something usable, so it look atrocious on our "small" screens"... Regarding the classes.dex, I haven't found anything related to it, since I didn't even looked for it since this was kinda abandoned... I think I grew up tired and went back...

Sadly, I'm still learning, and the "best" developers that can make that aren't working with any Sony device, or they like AOSP stuff (which I don't)...

Is classes.dex smali-like? Or xml-like? I know a bit from xml, but smali is like hell for me...

[MENTION=4315551]Ticklefish[/MENTION] , sorry for summoning you, but you have such great knowledge, could you give us some help?

The thing we must make sure first is: All the files must be also themed, the HDPI and MDPI versions (not sure which, depends on how you want it)... That means Settings icons and probably framework too...

I left the PA/PAC thing because I got tired of it, I was doing absolutely nothing, and all of them (except John and you) weren't persons I liked to hang out much... I'm back to school, so having a hard time staying online. But message me whenever you need :D
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] funky0308:

We'll see when Niaboc release it and I guess if you make one version for you you'll probably share that with your old buddy ;)

Good luck in school :sly:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
Niaboc will include some of my stuff into it, I will only make some smaller changes from now on... At least for now...

I will share all my mods or add ons, with a permission from Niaboc, of course :D
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zackspeed:
It is smali edits. I think I found the code for status bar but seeing as it is different from what I am using for a guide I don't know what to do. It is smali edits. In the Sony code it is all listed as Z instead of true false. Most of the code is Z or I with some being J or V so I guess we need someone who knows some about how this is read as I am way over my head at this point.

Something else I have noticed in the Sys ui apk is all the device sizes are listed in the framework. So when you open some of the res files it looks to have all device sizes from mdpi to xxhdpi. This is what got me messing with the stock launcher and with 160dpi it goes to tablet mode. From what I can figure out is the system ui will change with per app dpi but the settings have combine status bar disabled.

Here is the link for the thread I am using for some what of a guide. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1780970
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Ticklefish:
lol..'summoning' me..:cool:

The 'classes.dex' file is made from the app's Java code. When the app's decompiled, it becomes all the various smali files.

Sadly, I still don't really understand smali. Xml, yes...but not smali. So there's not much help I can provide.. :(
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:

Yeah, summon you haha... Btw, any other cools mods you can think of trying? Excited to try something new... (The no battery icon is nice, but I like both :P )

And I see... Well, thanks anyway for help :P
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zackspeed:
So just from digging around it seems like all the code is there its just how the code is set up and knowing what redirects to write to make it work. Just from what I saw it does look like Sony turned off the combine status nav function. Just reading some of Sandy7's stuff I think I will ask from him. He seems to understand the Sony smali well.

One thing to note is with Niabic's home set to 192 it looked just like ZU and seemed to work well. I think it would be very interesting to have a tablet ion.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
You mean Honami launcher from Niaboc? I tried it myself and "worked" here... The problem is that icons looks cut off, dock is kinda incomplete... If it looks perfect for you, what did you did? Just changed the DPI? Cleared data?

And nice to see someone working on it... It's nice... Wish you good luck...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zackspeed:
Yea I have not gone back and done it again but I will work on some examples tonight. At the moment I can get it to look ok but the loss of small apps is killing me. That and forcing the launcher to full tablet style would be awesome. Pretty sure Niaboc's Honami launcher was the one that I got to look just like the ZU.

What about stock camera app? Is it working fine? I mean, Is there any overlay bug or not?(caused by the on screen buttons) Thank in advance!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
Used to work fine for me on ICS. Didn't tried with JB
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zackspeed:
Well have been messing with this for a bit now and I can say changing lcd just creates to many issues. With Google seemingly removing the tablet mode from JB forward getting a combined status nav bar is almost impossible. I did find that the stock launchers do have a tablet mode but trying to get it sized correctly is a big issue. Here are some examples of what I have figured out so far.

In the first few shots you can see Niaboc's Honami launcher set at 220 dpi with a screen dp of 600x1024. Everything works but the icons images do not re scale. The system ui is set at 240 dpi with the same dp 600x1024. In the last shot you can see the xposed tablet mod and stock JB launcher. The big problem I get with stock launcher is the app drawer is off center. It sits slightly to the right and overlaps the other screen. Also the tablet mod has a built in mod for recent apps so it kills small apps.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
That's what I achieved. Icons look horrible...

I think we need to wait for the update for Tablet Z and see how it will look like...

bigger battery (and easily removable too) and bigger storage is nice though but the different in battery only bout 1 hour (with same usage) and i think the 32 gB is just enough (u can always use usb-otg)

and i havent found any mali mp400 only games, yet there are some qualcomm's adreno-only game (but if u're not using adreno, u can buy and use chainfire3d :D )

and u need usb-jig to go to sgs3 download mode.. got me in panic mode when i was modding my friend's new sgs3

so.. your choice :)
