Emulating PA Phablet Mode

So, it looks like the search in thread functionality isn't working right now so I'm asking something that has probably been asked already. For that I apologize in advance. I've been looking for a way to duplicate the Paranoid Android 'Phablet Mode' using App Settings. I've been partially successful however, after modifying SystemUI to 213 DPI and 800x1280 on my Galaxy Nexus, there is a small gap between the bottom of the status bar and the top of my launcher. I'm wondering which apps I need to modify and how to get a more seamless conversion.

Thanks for the assistance ^_^

Thank you

Thank you Tungstwenty for this app and you work in the X posed Framework. I have a Nook Color w /CM 10.2. This app has through being able to manage permissions allowed me to increase my average free memory by 45 to 50 Meg. The boot completed permission being the culprit in most. Been using the app about three months and very happy. Also helped with battery draining Google Play Services update.

I hit the thanks button in the OP but felt the need to give a little more.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Tungstwenty:
You can thank [MENTION=4419114]rovo89[/MENTION] as he's the one that fixed it for KitKat :)

Yes. Change the Screen (dp) which is right below the DPI setting.

I'm using cyanogenmod on my Nexus 4 and I set Ingress to "Keep screen on", yet the screen keeps dimming after some minutes of inactivity... am I doing something wrong?
[Xposed Framework Modules] egingell:
Does the screen turn off or just dim?

Edit: The reason I ask is because App Settings is not exactly "native" and quirks like this are expected.

[Xposed Framework Modules] GFXi0N:
Yes, it is.... I usually put the device on the car's dashboard.... Gps style to see what's in front of me... (responsible driving always) yet, the screen dims... I'm using cyanogenmod... I don't know if this is because of the rom, since I'm quite new to xposed and I see the general thinking is xposed should be used on more stock roms.... Probably even only on stock+rooted?

Thanks

Since Kitkat introduced immersive mode, could you add this besides the fullscreen option?

Would be great especially as long as few developers have changed their apps accordingly.
[Xposed Framework Modules] DelBoy:
Is it possible to change DPI for the whole device at once, not app by app?
[Xposed Framework Modules] egingell:
Yes, but not with this app. I use ROM Toolbox, but you can manually edit /system/build.prop.

[Xposed Framework Modules] DelBoy:
Tried editing build.prop but it wouldnt accept my entry. Got it with ROM Toolbox. Thanks
[Xposed Framework Modules] rovo89:
I have just looked at this feature. It seems to include quite a few active components that need to manage the state of the app. Doesn't look like something that can be implemented quickly in a generic way.

However, the existing fullscreen mode will now also profit from the "swipe down to show statusbar" feature, something that previously only some custom ROMs had.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Tripledrop:
I would like to change my status bar and dropdown dpi, which I did by changing "android System". However this seems to make my keyboard massive! So much so that I can only see 8 letters! Is there another way to shrink the dpi of the status bar etc?
[Xposed Framework Modules] rovo89:
Try changing "SystemUI" instead.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Tripledrop:
That's what I thought should change it, but nothing happens changing system ui... dpi stays the same even after reboot
[Xposed Framework Modules] pikachukaki:
I try changing do and screen size in some apps on 4.4 custom stock ROM but nothing is happening...
[Xposed Framework Modules] Tripledrop:
Mine is 4.4 too...
[Xposed Framework Modules] rovo89:
Indeed... that's a bit strange because it works for other apps.

Doing some things differently might fix it.
[Xposed Framework Modules] pikachukaki:
Like?by me or by you?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Wikiwix:
Ok, I feared that... But thanks for the investigation!
[Xposed Framework Modules] pikachukaki:
After reboot DPI changed just fine I hope I don't have to reboot every time I edit a fresh app :p
[Xposed Framework Modules] rovo89:
I just wanted to tease you. ;) You see, the information you gave was about as helpful as my answer. You didn't say which apps exactly you tried and which settings you tried to use for them. That makes it impossible for others to reproduce your issues and give answers.

Are you using the latest version (1.6)?
[Xposed Framework Modules] egingell:
SystemUI and Android System are quirky when it comes to App Settings. Sometimes a reboot is required and sometimes just restarting SystemUI us enough.

[Xposed Framework Modules] Tripledrop:
Unfortunately I have tried rebooting and still nothing... Android system does work but screws up my keyboard app..
[Xposed Framework Modules] Kallb123:
I never managed to figure out a way to change the SystemUI or Android System DPIs without messing something up. App Settings just can't do it, and I've accepted that :P

Rovo, a lot of people seem to still use build.prop editors to change global dpi. If you could provide a way to group apps together (with a select all button also) then this wouldn't really be needed. Only things it wouldn't change are status and nav bars, which can be flashed usually and it wouldn't effect play store or anything. It would be so useful to have a "high res" group that you could fiddle with dpi and then a "stock" group that you'd keep normal. I know I've asked for this before, so I'm sorry about that! :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] Dovidhalevi:
App available on Play. Use it every day.

---------- Post added at 11:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:56 AM ----------

Yes, SystemUI.

Note that while this will make the bar smaller, Android still gives it its full height. So one is left with a black bar between the smaller statusbar and the rest of the screen.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Tripledrop:
The only issue I have is when I shrink the status bar, my keyboard is huge. Is there a way I can shrink the size of the keyboard keys?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Tungstwenty:
Could either of you (or anyone else that can reproduce this) try with this beta version to see if the "Keep Screen On" setting now sticks in this kind of apps?

Is it possible to change the dpi of all apps and eclectic for android system and system ui.? Since system ui seems to force close at certain densities.iys just seem to be a lot to change every app individually so I don't touch system ui. Actually what I'm asking is like how paranoid preferences separates system apps from user apps

In which app I have to force autorotation to activate landscape mode in lockscreen? Is that possible? I can't change this in settings in my ROM (Nexus 5 with droidkang v9). Thank you.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Nbsss:
Sorry if this has been asked, is tasker plugin integration planned or already working for this module? Thanks :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] rovo89:
You could try the "android" (Android system) package, but it will probably have side-effects. Better look for a module that care specifially about the lockscreen.
[Xposed Framework Modules] rokahaal:
Forcing the apps Dialer and Phone works (but dialpad isn't showing correctly in landscape mode) but sadly still no luck with lockscreen. Does anyone know a module which can force landscape mode in lockscreen? Would be great in the carholder
[Xposed Framework Modules] Steph310:
Please, as revo89 suggested using very small font, can you use the default font size when you write? Thank you in advance! ;)
[Xposed Framework Modules] Tripledrop:
Well normal Android keyboard works fine! And my TouchPal keyboard seems fine when I adjusted the dpi down to 160! Android system at 240.. awesome!
[Xposed Framework Modules] Tungstwenty:
Please post your /data/xposed/debug.log file.

Also, does it work for any app? Can you try with a couple of different ones to see if it's specific to some apps or the entire module is simply not working?

This was what leaded me to try Xposed Framework.. What a wonderful module!

Has anyone been able to use this with Opera Mini successfully to change its DPI? There's absolutely no change here. Works fine for the other apps I've tried, but Opera Mini's the most annoying with its tiny UI.

Thanks :D
[Xposed Framework Modules] diamantericos:
Basically I download logcat from market then type" / data/xposed/debug. Log" then search?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Tungstwenty:
No, I'm not referring to the logcat (this time).

You have a file on the /data/xposed/ directory called "debug.log". You need to use a root file explorer app (for instance ES File Explorer) to grab that file and share its contents directly from the app (either on dropbox, on paste.bin, as an attachment, ...) or copy it to the /sdcard in order to access it using a regular app.

PS: As for logcat, which is also needed in some other situations, you should also have an app installed to you can grab one when some other situation requires it (example: CatLog). It won't affect your system speed, it will only do something when you explicitly open the app and save a logcat to file or share it.
[Xposed Framework Modules] rovo89:
I think it's great that App Settings has its own official thread now. :)

Just want to add a use-case that isn't obvious (at least it wasn't for me until someone mentioned it a while ago). If you had the app running in foreground when you locked your phone, it will be displayed on top of the (secure) lockscreen when you turn the devices on again. I'm using this for Yatse, a remote control app for XBMC, so I don't have to unlock to change the volume or navigate to the next chapter. Only when I close the app, the normal lockscreen appears.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Tungstwenty:
App Settings is indeed active and no errors occurred (same for the "HaloFlagInject" mod) :confused:

Are you sure you have SAVED the settings for the apps you want to tweak? Could you attach or share the file at /data/data/de.robv.android.xposed.mods.appsettings/shared_prefs/ModSettings.xml ?

[Xposed Framework Modules] SifJar:
Any chance of an option to alter the transparency of the status bar on a per-app basis? I am using a transparent theme (HoloGlass beta) and some apps (e.g. messages, dialer, contacts) are transparent, and would therefore look better with a transparent status bar. However, other, non-themed apps look terrible with a transparent status bar (having a white background, for example, when the icons are the status bar are also white), so I don't just want a universal transparent status bar.

"Gravity box" (another xposed module) has independent options for status bar transparency on launcher and lock screen, so it's certainly possible. Is it something you would consider adding to the app?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Tungstwenty:
Yes, provided someone can help shed some light on whether it's doable or not.

Having 2 settings for locked vs non-locked state is likely to be simple since it's already handled by the core logic of SystemUI (PhoneWindowManager class, etc.), but having it dependent on the app that's displaying at each moment might not be as simple as hooking into something that already exists, *if* that doesn't already exist natively...
[Xposed Framework Modules] metalboy94:
Could you provide a way to modify notification priority? I would like to use tools like Tasker or Lux but if their notifications are set as expanded I won't get expanded notifications for what matters, i.e. texts.
[Xposed Framework Modules] kulguy:
Can someone please help me to find a way to solve this problem..?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=45354568

It seems modifying DPI of System UI and Android System is not enough as a substitute for changing Lcd density value of build.prop.

Do I miss something?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Crepusculi:
multi app changing

One possible suggestion would be to allow the user to change a single attribute for multiple apps. I can envision this as being a somewhat backdoor way to safely force your phone to be fullscreen all the time, ie, hide the status bar on all apps.
[Xposed Framework Modules] formula84:
I like that this is now an option-No big notifications: but is there any chance we could get an option for the opposite as well Force Big Notifications so they are always expanded?
[Xposed Framework Modules] palmuse:
I have been very happily using what seems to be a "tablet UI" for some time now. I use CM 10 but I'm not sure that matters. All apps that have built-in "tablet UI" use it. Even confuses the themer and Play Store.

Only modified 3 apps: Android System, Settings, and System UI.

Settings (GS3 running CM10):

DPI: 160

Font Scale: 150 (also use huge font in settings)

Screen Res: 1000x1600

XL : yes

All else remains the same. Does not take effect until a reboot.

Turn off AppSettings module, reboot = back to phone ui (This is what I do to apply a phone theme or dl phone specific apps)

---------- Post added at 01:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:23 AM ----------

I recall having that issue. I think all I did was change up my settings. Try 160 (see my earlier post).

If keyboard issue persists, try changing the DPI of just the keyboard to a different value.

Somehow I no longer have the odd layout issue.

[Xposed Framework Modules] SifJar:
https://github.com/C3C0/GravityBox/blob/master/src/com/ceco/gm2/gravitybox/TransparencyManager.java

Here is the code from Gravity Box. It looks like for lockscreen, it just checks if the device is locked, but for the launcher, it checks the current package name and then checks if that package is currently registered as the "home" activity. The functions "isLauncherShowing()" and "isCurrentHomeActivity()" take care of these.

Perhaps it is more complex than it looks to me (I'm not very experienced with coding), but I think it looks doable.

Thanks for considering it anyway :)

Great module Thungstwenty, big thanks for it!

Have one wish, is it possible to add to it option for an app to force it run on else device than it is supposed to run?

Like I have one from my older Samsung phone and would like to use it on htc one.

Now it just won't start saying that device is not supported. I have it from Samsung app store. May be if appsetings module make it think that device is samsung gt i9000 it wil run :) Thanks.

Install any root explorer like File Manager or ES File Explorer. Enable root access and enable Mount system folders as writable.

Go ahead and edit build.prop manually:good:
[Xposed Framework Modules] Idan73:
As was mentioned, changing system ui dpi on kit kat does not work. Changing android system lead to third party keyboards to display huge, while still responding to key presses in original non blown up location.

I tried doing what you did and lower keyboard dpi to get it right. Problem is at least with SwiftKey, it is also shifted down, so you can never actually get it. Finally gave up after hours of different setups and just adjusted global build prop edit.

Not really my preference but, till fix or workaround is made, it's the only way. Hate the latest trend that seems we all need accessibility turned on by default. My eyes and motor skills are still good enough, to point and press where I want, so no thank you to huge icons and keys.

Since last update v1.6, the lock orientation is weird on some apps.

Like ePSXe, SuperGNES, PPSSPP.... The orientation of the starting UI is landscape (as I set it in the App Settings), but when I start any game, the orientation is switched to portrait and the layout is all mess... Like landscape layout forced to portrait, also become half screen...

Downgrade to v1.5 fix the issue....

[Xposed Framework Modules] egingell:
I bet Tasker or similar can do it.

Edit: Or not. Seems Tasker will only toggle auto-rotation. Not change views.

Some apps don't have other DPI views and there's no way around it. Not even by changing the system DPI.

The only thing i'we red somewhere, that with app manifest.xml modding this can be done.

But i rather not start to experiment with it, since i have no confirmation that it's working. :(

Since i'm using.this module to rotate hangouts for example, and to use custom dpi for several other apps i hope if there's a way.

But if i set the orientation to anything for the keyboard app nothing happens.

I suppose if the module could pick up the keyboard activity and i could set options for it, it could be working, but i dont know if there's any way to do that or is there any keyboard apps witch i could use the settings with.

Sorry for the chaotic english...
[Xposed Framework Modules] egingell:
If it has as activity associated with it, Xposed can detect it. App Settings could theoretically be written to change settings for app activities just like making custom shortcuts on a home screen.

The problem is the activity has to be exposed (ie in the manifest of an app) for App Settings to find and list it.
