[Nexus 10 General] midnite_blue:
a loss for some...

You're right, pfmiller, it's a different feature... that's why I went down the thread to fish out that part for the quote (was busy doing that while you posted, BTW) and also why I parsed the link to make it easier for others to see. I thought I'd point it out without hitting Dinsdaleson over the head since his link was helpful and I wanted to be more welcoming to someone who hasn't been very active out here.

It's a different part of a tablet-owner's interface on Paranoid Android, but it still caught several tablet owners unaware, surprising them and taking away something they found valuable. There's a varying level of angst about it...

Damn, thats sad to hear, i really loved PA for that on my Tab. But if Google has wiped out the Code, its the only thing you could have done. Great Work guys.

Tablet ui just felt a lot more intuitive on 10 inch tablets than the standard phone ui. Big black bar at the bottom of the screen with 3 buttons in the middle just wastes space. I hope Google fixes that, maybe not the exact same way they did before but there's gotta be a distinction. +5

Kinda sad that Google killed off tablet ui, it was definitely better than phablet for 10" tablets in my opinion. But luckily with PIE and HALO (once they've been implemented), I'll probably won't miss it. +1

On the n7, tablet UI was very useful ...gave back much needed real estate.sad to see it go, never used phablet UI.. Maybe it will suffice

Really sad to hear tablet ui is removed officially from Kit Kat. I loved the combo status/nav bar. It does make sense you are not supporting it. Keep it simple!

Thanks for the update. I don't use tablet ui anymore on my N7. I use phablet and disable nav bar. Pie is the way to go anyway. +3

its fine with me if tablet UI is not anymore available. what important is we still have hybrid properties, halo, pie and other important stuff. Sacrificing one for many will do. +1

Damn. I was waiting for the day I'd get a Nexus tablet so I could use PA's tablet UI on it. Too bad. Guess I'll forget about getting a tablet now since Google's current UI on tablets is just an oversized phone UI. I hate it. +2

Part of me just died with the tablet UI :( Thank PA team for PIE though since I pretty much always use my devices in landscape and I dont have 6" long thumbs to reach center buttons. +2

oh no! not the tablet ui! the realstate gain by using the tablet ui will be deeply missed!! :'( if possible, please bring it back!! +1

Losing tablet UI's not that bad for me. But I've gotta know... Will PIE have fancy immersion capabilities so I can just swipe down and see the status bar? :}? +2

Nooooo, loved my tablet UI on n7. Your thumbs are just right there! Dammit Google. Thanks a bunch for update PA, still very excited. I install PA on everything I have.

The tablet ui is the main reason I used your ROM on my nexus 7 2012 +4

No tablet UI, no more need for paranoid android for me, it was literally the only feature I ever used. But I understand it was out of your hands. +6

Damn. Tablet UI was the whole reason I used PA. But I guess it is Google fiber removed the code, so it's just not a thing anymore +1

I do NOT need so big buttons. I do NOT want so big buttons always appear. I do NOT like using PIE mode. *I only like Tablet UI. *I canceled my Nexus 5 order.I'll keep using Nexus 4.****................. +1

I really want to say something to Google since i bought N10 AND N7 2012.

Such a "beautiful" UI. Google! *You use it on cellphone makes little sense. You even use it on Tablet. It's so ridiculous! So big three buttons at the bottom. I cannot easily to *see the clock and any other notification when I'm playing games or running any other full screen apps. I'm really wondering that *Android engineers' heads are full of water. IOS is so closed, i'll never use it. But, you should open, open, open everything! So sad........

is that Google don't want to sell their tablet anymore, so that they wipe out the code? Will there be only phablet in the future? +1

I know you read the thread, pfmiller, so you were already aware of all these posts by disappointed tablet owners -- and 33 more -- about the 44 deleted files that supported 'tablui' ...plus a few other posts by people who won't miss it. I just wanted to include some of their quotes here for others to see.
