Tablet UI - Nexus 10 General

Just for kicks (and because the half phone/half tablet ui really bugs me, takes up too much space with bars on both the top and bottom of the screen), I went ahead and built a 'stock' JB 4.2 AOSP rom for the N10 with the tablet UI enabled (thanks to the N7 thread on XDA for the modification details!). (Check out the attached image!)
It seems to work well, and it's a very simple mod (though I've hardcoded it to test it out) Would be nice if some of the future custom roms could come with an option to choose the UI at some point!
Here's the link to modifying the source to enable the tablet UI for any of the dev's out there interested:

Awesome.

Awesome. I can't wait to get mine (ordered yesterday).

Can the navigation buttons be flipped?

Does editing the LCD density in /system/build.prop not work for 4.2?

Can't you go back to full tablet UI with the app drawer button at the top? The empty hot keys navigation area looks strange. Also, you mentioned custom roms making it an option...doesn't Paranoid Android already do that?

Didn't try. I'm not a fan of that since it breaks other apps, this doesn't chance the density, so at least everything that would run stock should still run.

The launcher doesn't appear to have the app drawer by default (at the top of the screen), but if I install something like NOVA launcher, you get what you're looking for.
Paranoid does apparently have options to choose the ui mode, but I haven't seen that ROM for the n10 yet. Got a link to it???

I thought I heard that Tablet UI (via DPI change) wasn't possible as of 4.2

Yeah, simple changes to the order of buttons in the navigation_bar.xml file would change the order of those buttons.
As I mentioned, I'm just messing around with the AOSP code, and hope a 'real' rom will come out with the option to switch to tablet mode!

I don't think it's out for the N10 yet. Coming soon from what I read. I was just point out that the ability does exist in roms, it just needs to make it to the N10.

100% full screen tablet mode ?

does anyone know of a way to run the note in tablet mode in ICS 4.0.4 so all my apps display in 100% full screen?
Not sure if there's a way to do it in system. I know for sure you can do it with most home screen replacements-launchers.

I use APex launcher and it has an option to hide the status bar. Nova has it too.

Apex settings.
Cosmo D from outer space!
I came to rock the human race!
You have to freeze it. The only free option I have ever seen is an app called "AntTek App Manager". Now when you freeze the statusbar it will keep popping up a FC but to fix this freeze the status bar and after it disappears defrost it and it should still stay hidden til you reboot.
Another vote fo using Apex launcher -- it has the option to autohide the status bar in phone mode (dpi of 214,or higher) .
Now, Tablet Mode (dpi of 213, or lower) is a different story. For that, you'll have to get with the ROM developer to implement a hide button. (Hybrid ROM has this).
I guess what I really want is to run the note in tablet mode so it is 100% full screen (I dont need that black bar at the top of the screen that displays the clock, battery life, cell reception/bars, etc)

Which ROM?
OnlyOne ICS ROM Beta 4*HYFR*for AT&T*Galaxy Note*...
Hopefully there is a mod like this that could preserve the quickpanel
You should go with CM9, AOKP, or The Hybrid if you're looking for a functional tablet mode. OnlyOne isn't gonna cut it...
Will any of those preserve the quickpanel and are those ICS?

Yes, they're all ICS, and I *think* the 15toggle mod works on Hybrid...maybe. I'm not sure whether or not there is a version of it for the others.
Warning: you will lose S-pen functionality with CM9 and AOKP, but not Hybrid.
I suggest you go read as much of the Hybrid's thread as possible. It's slightly more complex than what you may be used to.
Good luck!

gravity box issues

One week with ZU and loving it. The stock Rom is fine for me but I want to use gravity box for my favorite tweaks. Mostly it works fine but does anyone know how to fix the following?
1. Quick settings seems immune to any tweaks at all. I really want the smart pull down.
2. Battery mods don't survive a reboot... the stock battery icon returns, but just the outline.
Many thanks.

Some of it works well, the power off menu and lock screen stuff for example. I thought the whole point of gravity box is to bring features from CM etc into stock roms.

yeah I noticed but its limited.. no no the purpose is to bring features to roms where you can not find the provided features in the Gravitybox module to turn on or off in the settings app in the rom without typing the strings in a terminal or setup manual scripts to set on boot. Who would wanna do that everytime..
Its an app module that provides a simple user friendly UI to change strings on or off and even modify the values. For example, change the height of the navigation bar. Or remap the short push and long push action of the soft keys in the navigation bar in a few simple steps.

Oh I see, so features that were added by Rom devs simply don't have the underlying code to be addressed. Makes perfect sense, though it's a shame the stock battery outline keeps reappearing, it goes away when I toggle in GB but returns on reboot.
I can see me investigating custom roms sooner than I thought.

[MOD][Lollipop][2015-02-14] Fix navbar spacing on lower DPI

If you use a lower DPI like me (I use 320) on the 5.0 lollipop port by scrubber you've probably noticed the navigation bar buttons are too separated.
Flash the attached zip in recovery to fix this.
Only portrait for now. When I got some spare time I'll fix the landscape layout.
Status: Beta 1
Date: 2014-12-05
If you prefer to swap the recents and back button check out my other mod: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z-ultra/themes-apps/mod-swap-recents-navbar-buttons-t2964524
Edit 2014-12-08: Added a revert zip. Flash in recovery if you want to restore the original SystemUI.
Edit 2015-02-14: Uploaded Beta 2. Fixed the IME switcher and menu button location. Also fixed layout in landscape mode.
This is great, thanks.
swap back and recent apps.
Good work OP. One question though, is it possible to swap the back and recent apps buttons? On 4.4.4 i just used xposed with gravity box but as far as i know xposed doesn't work on lollipop.
Any help or guidance would be appreciated.
It works perfectly, Thanks:laugh:

Oh, both of those are dependent on the launcher you're using.

Why did you want to restore a nandroid backup? Because of this mod? If so, I'll make a flashable revert zip available.

Is it possible to tweak the dpi of Nova Launcher? The icons are too small when I'm on 320 dpi on Nova, but they okay when used in 400 dpi. On the contrary they are pretty decently sized when I'm using Google Search 4.0 + Google Launcher 1.11. I actually started using Google's alternative because of this and also due to the fact that the app drawer employs a white background which increases visibility even when the brightness is very low. I haven't seen this option in Nova yet. I know we can change icon sizes and scale them in Nova settings, but still the sizes and fonts are not proportional to what I would like it to be. Changing grid sizes helps a bit but it doesn't change the icon and font scaling problem.
I did try editing the shared_prefs.xml file from data/data and changed the dpi from 320 to 400 but it seems to reset it everytime the launcher is opened even if I've set the file to read only in properties.
Edit:
I also have another request for you. Can you change the navbar dp to 42 instead of 48 in portrait & landscape? 48 seems bigger than what it should be.
You don't need to tweak the dpi as you can change icon size in Nova
Or maybe that's only for payed users? Check in look & feel and see if you can change icon size

Yes, I used the option to manually resize the icons, but they're still way smaller than what 400dpi looks like.
Even after resizing, the icons are much smaller than what Google now launcher for Lolipop looks like at 320dpi. Only at 400dpi do they look okay.
Also what about the Navbar height? Is there anything we can do about that?
Is this "way smaller"?
Yeah I could make a mod changing the navbar height.

5 days in and only one complaint

Have had the phone for 5 days now and love it,from the build and feel in hand to the software,came from a HTC which are quality built phones and this matches that and more .The FP scanner is a dream to use and the back is certainly the right place for it .My only complaint is that awful black controls bar at the bottom. Google make it transparent on the home screen and Google now ,yet even in there own apps like Gmail its still there,its present in 90% of my apps,that might be down to the app,but things like dolphin browser on full screen mode have it hidden away to pull up as needed.It looks so much better when not there and isn't taking up valuable screen space .Is there any reason why it can't be transparent in every app etc or at least move down when not in use.

Essentially gets rid of the navigation options at the bottom and instead you pull them up in the side only when necessary. You access them like the labs controls on the old aosp browser by running a finger on the side to cause then to pop out.
There are a few apps to do this - root not required.
Works on mm on the n5 (WHERE'S MY 6P GOOGLE!), as it's just a launcher should also work on the 6p
I plan on using LMT launcher. With root you should be able to run LMT and remove navigation bar as well
Wow I thought about this too with my 6P. When I was using my G3 prior I used Pie controls and removed the nav bar. Would love to use all of that 5.7" real estate the 6P has.
Stick this line at the bottom of your build.prop file in the system folder and nav bar is gone, "qemu.hw.mainkeys=1". Make sure you have pie already installed, I use pie control.

Lower the DPI in build.prop a bit and the nav bar will be smaller and you'll have more real estate on the screen.

★How To Get True Immersive Mode/Fullscreen/Expanded Desktop in ANY Rom★

Want true fullscreen in any 7.1.1 Nougat rom? Want to be able to get maximum viewing space on your 6p? I have a treat for you!
Although the 6p screen is very large, I'm a huge proponent of maximizing screen real estate.
I found this setup is awesome because it gives you so much more viewing screen for everyday use. For example, in Chrome, now you can see so much more of a web page and it makes your viewing space so much better:
1) All in One Gestures App: enable fullscreen (within the app to get true fullscreen/immersive mode. Expanded desktop rocks. Massively improved viewing space baby!
https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...gestures&hl=en
2) Download Swipe Navigation App: from playstore. This is AWESOME. Enables swipe gestures to navigate and swipe as opposed to having a physical navbar. This saves huge amounts of screen real estate. At the bottom of the screen, left swipe up is back, middle swipe up is home, and right swipe up becomes recents. (This is so cool).
https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...vigation&hl=en
3) In a build prop editing app (I recommend BuildProp Editor), paste this line and save:
qemu.hw.mainkeys = 1
(this removes the on-screen navigation bar, now you have awesomely improved screen real estate!
https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...p.editor&hl=en
Can you use the build prop edit to hide nav bar in 7.1.1 last I knew it wasn't possible.

it's possible to hide the navbar. it's not possible to change its height (through substratum). maybe that's what you heard
Hmm. Keyboard won't work when you enable immersive mode in All in One Gestures. Kind of a deal-breaker.
Edit: tried out Swipe Navigation and the build.prop edit. Works perfectly right now. I was a little worried after restarting the phone because the Swipe Navigation app didn't start right away (I couldn't back out of an application, lol). But it started up in less than a minute and everything is good. I'm going to use for a while and maybe buy the $1.50 add-on that unlocks custom actions.

This app from the play store is the best that I have seen. Cost $1.99, I brought it with google play credits from the google surveys. It will give you the tiles in your toolbox and everything. You can hide the status bar, the nav bar, or both, plus alot extra. I use it. As long as your rooted there is no need to edit the build prop.

The reason why you need to edit the build prop, is because, if you want to use Swipe Gestures (the easiest and superior method for nav bar-less navigation imo) is because otherwise now you have two extra steps. You swipe up from bottom, and now you wait for the nav bar to 'come up'. You then hit the button you want. Takes time.
With my method, you instantly navigate with a gesture. One lightning fast action. That's why removing the nav bar in build prop is so important.
Also, the app you suggested costs money. Can be done better and at absolutely no cost.

Try the suggestions I mentioned, it'll work for you man.

Like I said earlier, I set my phone up just using the Swipe Navigation app and the build.prop edit. It's all working right now, so I don't really think that first app would add any benefit to me right now, even if it was working for me.

Could be nice to use. I have SuperSU Stable v2.79.
I just redownloaded the app and gave all permissions. Still no keyboard. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I clearly stated to download the beta that i posted. It's like three months ahead of the 'stable' SuperSU development cycle.
What rom are you using? I'm using uberstock.
I flashed two other roms, and I was able to get the keyboard working in immersive mode in both.
Everyone felates and sucks off purenexus, but Uberstock runs circles around it in my opinion.
