Best ROM? - Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0

I'm looking to switch from ICS-Crumble (it is AOKP based) I LOVE ROM Control. What ROM can offer similar customization? I want to use the Bluetooth patch, as well as working soft button backlights. (I have USA SGP 5.0) Should I use paranoid? What are its downsides? Opinionated replies are welcomed. Thank you.

I use paranoid..did not reset one single time..and its cool that you can combine phone or tablet us and change dpi for every single app and everything you see diferently with out even reseting...and there are themes and stuff rom is a winner in every way if you ask me..if only camera and hw working would be perfect.

+1 for the ParanoidAndroid... I came from CM9 (Jack's) which I had for a quite a long time... I tried a few other ICS roms but ended up back at CM9. But, once I loaded Parandroid, I was hooked... Very polished and quite stable. I am using Holo Launcher even though the stock launcher worked fine for me.
Good luck.

I am also using Paranoid. Very nice.

(request) 240 dpi stock dialer

Would anyone be able to upload the stock dialer without the yp mobile but one that is functional with the 240 dpi setting? I like the stock dialer and would prefer to not have to get a 3rd
Party dialer.

To my knowledge most 3Rd party look terrible too.
On topic: it is a work in progress for multiple devs. Dsmitty said he was working on it this weekend
Sweet thanks for the reply and awesome news

Just out of curiosity have you tried GoContacts? I think that dialer is very functional and combines contacts / dialer into one app and does it well.

exDialer looks awesome at 240 and I like it better than stock too. Give it a whirl.
I would love 240 dpi stock dialer! Would love a stock-ish Rom with a 240 dpi base.
Edit: tried ex dialer and its serviceable until a modified stock version is available.

Tablet Mode Mod --Q & A-- !!!!!!

I know he made the Mod for his Alpha ICS Rom, BUT it seems to work on most ICS builds so i am making its own Q&A thread so we can stay out of Noteworthy/Seraphim/Dags thread with questions strictly about this Mod.
so this will be for GENERAL QUESTIONS on this Mod from member to member.....what dpi are you running, are you having issues on a certain Rom, things you would like to tell others about your experiance with this Mod running on your phone.
Have at it Yall!!!!!
on my part i love the Mod, im on seraphim and have had NO ISSUES
Only issues I have are started in the OP, and fc's with Samsung camera deleting a picture and ICS camera switching to panoramic. Besides that running awesome on note worthy

im using adw ex, 4d scrolling app drawer, and it does 5 x however many apps you have, it scrolls real smooth too.
really liking the tablet mode, it gives the phone a whole defferent feel overall.
i dont have any market issues after loading another vending apk, no contacts issues, no FC's seems to be almost perfect on this end

That's what I meant by "resizing the widget doesn't cut it" I've already stretched it as much as I can with the widget resize feature...which is whats in my screen shot.

You would need a new mms app the has sms-mms in the settings and adjust those settings to fit your needs. I've only found one so far and it has a transparent background. It doesn't play nice with the roms that are getting new updates. This is the apk file. You have to side load it, fix permissions, reboot.
Use it at your own risk. Works great on some roms,

[Q] How's Nova/Apex launcher running on the DNA?

Anyone installed Nova launcher yet? Coming from a GNex I think that would be my first order of business. Any performance issues, resolution problems, etc?

ive been running nova for over a week now, and it runs like a champ
I tried to deal with sense for about 4 hours yesterday... App spacing is atrocious and that dock is fugly and you can't change it to anything remotely attractive... Installed nova and doubt I will look back until maybe a desense Rom is developed
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using Tapatalk 2
I got mine today and set everything up before loading nova back on. Nice and smooth as always.
Best thing is, the locksreen shortcuts are what is on the sense dock. You can set those to anything, then go to nova.
Anyone able to get wallpapers to scroll??
I'm trying Nova, but many of the Sense widgets are missing. I wish there was an app that would allow 4x5 layout on the stock setup. Does anyone know of anything like this? 4x4 just looks silly on such a large display.

Just hold you're finger over the icon then slide it up to the top to delete then to replace hold finger on an empty space on home screen and then select the app you want close it then drag the icon to the desktop bar

Thanks for the hint with Next Launcher is the best that I used (beta v4): smooth animation and fast and no lag.
