So is there, or will there, be a way to artificially increase the screen resolution for the Skyrocket (much like this)?
I just moved from the Atrix and the lower screen resolution is killing me with the 4.5" screen. I feel like I'm using an old persons phone with the ginormous buttons and font, plus I hate not being able to fit as much information onto the screen. I'm considering moving to the Atrix 2 just for the resolution issue
Only thing I know of is the app LCD Density Changer from the market. Used it back on my Captivate. Not sure how well it works with the sr, but it was fantastic on my Captivate.

First thats hillarious. The atrix/atrix 2 are childs toys compared to the skyrocket. But there is an app called lcd density changer on the market. It requires root. , and if you change the settings apps may show up as unsupported in the market. So you would need to change it back to stock when on the android market.
I know what you mean OP. came from the atrix as well. u can use LCD density changer. along with the market problems (some updates wont even show up until you revert it back)
the touchwiz and its dialer will end up quite wonky as well as they don't adjust to the new resolution well. your option there will be to use a different launcher app/ dialer app.
Well then this solved all my problems! I set it to 200 DPI (instead of the default 240 DPI) and it looks so, so much better.
So far no issues except trying to download apps (I think updating works fine though). Anyone use this regularly and find any specific issues, whether it be with certain applications or whatnot?
Thanks again!
even though i dont use density changer i just go edit the build.prop and change it there.
i have no issues with density less the market stuff, and of course it looks like **** on TW. i have to use another launcher to make it look better. i hate the dead space left on TW when you lower the density.
i leave mine at 210.
Hey guys,
I'm trying (without luck so far) to change the DPI setting on my tablet so that I can have more screen real estate.
I'm running stock (ICS) rooted on my Galaxy Tab 2 7" - this ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1798283
So far, I've tried:
- Editing build.prop myself to change DPI manually
- Using an app from the Play story
- Following the suggestions in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1826067
(no luck at all, because this app doesn't even include the lcd density slider)
In all cases, I either get no result, or I get a black startup screen. After each method/approach, I restore a clean backup from CWM (so the approaches aren't conflicting with each other).
I can't get anything to work. Any suggestions?
Did you try "Rom Toolbox Lite" from the play store. You need root to use it.
Performance > Build.prop Tweaks > LCD density ... pick what you want > Reboot.
Sorry if you tried that already but that's the easiest way to do it as far as i know.
May be because of stock rom try cm10 from www.teamhacksung.org you will not be disappointed i use it now marvellous !!!

I did indeed try that. Unfortunately, the LCD density simply isn't an option under the Build.prop tweaks menu. I'm guessing that this has something to do with the fact that my build.prop actually contains no reference to LCD density. The normal build.prop entry isn't there. I don't understand the nuts and bolts of this well enough to know why, but somehow, the system is getting its LCD density settings from something other than build.prop.
I've truly read every item in build.prop, and nothing appears to be related to LCD density, even by another name. It just doesn't seem to be in there, which is probably why Rom Toolbox Lite is intelligently removing that particular slider option from my view.

I'm completely open to going to CM10, but I'll tell you my reservation (and maybe you can tell me if I'm just missing something obvious):
I tried two or three of the CM10 roms yesterday. In all cases, when I booted to my homescreen, it was stuck in landscape mode. It wouldn't rotate into portrait, no matter what I did. I spent hours combing through threads, trying to figure out why one of the most basic aspects of being a tablet (the ability to rotate orientations) was not working. I finally came across a solution that required downloading a new launcher APK. I applied the solution, and it worked. But it felt glitchy, and the whole user experience situation was a bit disappointing. It didn't feel smooth, not that their was intense lag, but there was a noticeable UI performance hit (at least in my own subjective opinion).
It IS sort of killing me that I can't get the DPI to something more reasonable though - so I'm a motivated CM10-er. I just can't deal with a tablet that I'll practically never use in landscape, being stuck in landscape.
Have you tried setting/display/rotation and ticked autorotate,include lock screen and 0,90,180,270 degrees
You could also try Nova or apex launchers or go launcher hd i use it now

Yep. I think it's actually a known bug.
I have somewhat mixed emotions about eschewing the bloatware of the stock Samsung experience, only to put on a 3rd party launcher after the fact. But that's a philosophical debate best had elsewhere. I think my issue with CM10 or AOSP right now, is that stuff just doesn't seem to work right on the P3113. I could be wrong - in fact, I very well might be wrong. I'm not necessarily as up to date as someone who has owned this tablet for more than 3 days. But in terms of the 10 or so hours I've spent clunking away at it this weekend, it seems like some really obvious stuff is missing. (rotation, etc).
For the most part, ICS/JB is a user interface change. Pleasant looking menus with a cool blue color. There are quite a few options out there to give your G2X the look/feel of ICS/JB but I had my eye on efficiency.
The Ice10 Theme and Holo apps are easy on the battery and use little additional CPU. Of course, if you increase cache sizes and use fancy transitions YMMV. But I'm quite happy with my ICS/JB themed phone.
1. Start with the latest CM7 Nightly. I don't know if this works with other ROMs, but it should. GB7.2 is recommended.
2. DO A NANDROID BACKUP
3. Install the ICE10 Theme: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2003484
. . This gives you some of the ICS/JB look/feel.
. . Put the Ice10.apk on your SD Card, click to install. Then start the Theme Chooser app, select Ice10 and click Apply.
. . If you get a theme error that you are missing assets for your screen size, just click Apply Anyway. Reboot phone.
4. Install Holo Launcher: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobint.hololauncher
. .Holo Launcher on XDA
. .Holo Launcher is a brilliant app that gives you the ICS app drawer, screens, and menus. The screenshots don't
. .do it justice, it looks even better than that!
5. Install Holo Locker: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobint.locker
. .Holo Locker on XDA
. .This gives you the ICS lock screen!
For the Ice10 Theme, the G2X resolution is already 240DPI so no changes are needed.
I paid for Holo Launcher Plus because the full ICS/JB experience is well worth the $1.99. It includes additional transitions and improvements. Holo Launcher is insanely customizable! The dock is scrollable and can have up to 10 icons. The Desktop and Drawer each have settings for the "scrolling cache", which is none, Low quality, Normal quality, and High quality. All this really means is the higher the quality, the more RAM it uses to make the transitions faster and smoother You can also change the desktop and app drawer grid size so you can fit a hell of a lot more apps on your screen.
For both Holo apps, I recommend going into the Settings and disabling Auto check for Updates and Auto Report. I don't like my apps checking for updates in the background, uses battery and CPU.
The Ice10 theme XDA thread contains wonderful info on final mods you can make to truly have the complete and total ICS/JB look/feel. Keep in mind that isn't a G2X thread so some of the mods, like the final Menu mods, are phone and ROM specific, so someone would have to make those additional mods specific for the G2X and specific ROM.
The below screenshots are for my CM7 Nightly ROM. Notice how Holo Launcher gives you a dramatic difference in the Settings. The Menu button is also different and the menu options are completely customizable.
Sorry for the lo-res Starship Enterprise wallpaper but it was a camera photo taken of the TV screen some days ago. Zooming in lost lots of resolution.
This is really a fantastic mod. I have all the user interface benefits of ICS/JB while having a totally operational phone with HW acceleration. I really don't need or don't care about using any other ROM at this point, although I'm waiting for Mazout's next kernel.
Thanks to EricTheLuminant for pointing me in this direction.
Remember to THANK ME if you appreciate this!
Thanks I'll probably try the theme later tonight.
Two quick questions: what does your notification center look like? And can you pull down the notification center from the lock screen?

Yes, you can pull down the notification bar from the lock screen. I just tested it on my phone, I didn't even know ICS could do that!
With the above mods notification bar looks like a cross between ICS and GB. It can be modded to look exactly like ICS/JB.
I see you are enterprising on the theme and guide I mentioned earlier! This is good, but you are missing some vital elements that can make CM7 even more ICS/JB like.
Using this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1363239, you'll find many more options. If you are experienced enough or willing to read instructions carefully, you can also use the ACpatcher software to custom mod several apps and the framework to increase the experience. It's very technical, and I don't have the willpower to walk through each and every step.
However, I have made some patches already based on the 2013-03-01 cm7 nightly. I'll see if I can upload them for you guys to give it a whirl. They add ics style notifications, transitions, and phone. See the screenshots attached.

I took a quick look. My focus is on stability and performance, and some of the mod apps mentioned in that thread have huge RAM usage, crash often, and/or have more negative than positive reviews, including the status bar apps.
The Holo Locker lock screen is much better than the GB lock screen. It's easier to use. The only thing I miss is being able to change from ring to vibrate to silent from the lock screen.
Holo Launcher makes the entire experience much more pleasant. It only uses 38MB of RAM.
The Ice10 theme from what I can see uses minimal RAM.
Oh of course. I'm not talking about the RAM using apps, nor do I use any of them...I'm talking about themeing and replacing the framework and phone app to better suit ICS/JB style. That status bar image is completely stock, as is the phone.
These don't affect battery, merely the look.
Download the patches I have made from my dropbox and put them on your sd card.
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/d8g2bdll7i2jn3a/jv85IfKLeG
These patches were made based on the 2013-03-01 CM7.2 Nightly, and I do not know if they will work for older versions or other roms. They are made specifically to work with the Ice10 theme. It is important that these are flashed in the correct order.
1. In CM recovery, make a nandroid backup (although you can also flash the undo.zip files in case of failure. They will restore the original unmodified apps, and you should only need to flash the update-cwm-All-in-1 ICS v11-undo.zip)
2. Select mounts and storage
3. Select mount /system
4. First Flash update-cwm-All-in-1 ICS v11-patch.zip
5. Second Flash update-cwm-JBPhone-pach.zip
6. Last Flash update-Full.ICS.Fonts-with.Clock.Font.zip
7. Wipe cache and dalvik
8. Fix permissions
9. Reboot (will take a few more minutes than usual to rebuild the cache)
Afterwards, you should notice a few things. Your status bar, notifications, font, phone, etc. will be themed more properly to ICS/JB. Good luck!
thanks
Thank to both of you. Till now i have been using ics theme on ADW launcher. Many key components were not themed to ics. Hope to get it sorted now.
Thanks again.

Install Holo Launcher and you'll think your phone came from heaven.
.
Eric, you are going to have to tell us EXACTLY what your patches include. I don't install anything blind.
That would help wouldn't it?
Inside update-cwm-All-in-1 ICS v11-patch.zip:
You'll find theme modifications to the system apps bluetooth.apk, deskclock.apk, downloadprovider.apk, music.apk, phone.apk, systemUI.apk. These will further theme the system apps to the color and style of ICS/JB.
framework-res.apk is also modified to add ICS/JB transition animations, as well as ICS/JB themed notifications and status bar.
If you look at the images I posted earlier, you'll notice that the status bar notifications have that little square on the left, in the manner of ICS.
Inside update-cwm-JBPhone-patch.zip,
you'll find another phone.apk, framework-res.apk. This must be flashed after the first patch, as it will overwrite the the previous ones. This will give your phone app a more ICS/JB style look as well. See screenshots from earlier.
The last patch, update-Full.ICS.Fonts-with.Clock.Font.zip, merely adds the ICS roboto font across your device.
The undo-patches simply return the themed apps back to the original CM7 stock ones. Is it imperative that the theme patches are flashed correctly in the instructions mentioned previously if you wish to use them.
Will the patches work with Hellfire rom?
Wow. Very very cool, Eric.
What if I only want the settings mod?

Got it! IT WORKS!
However, the headings ("Wireless and Networks", "Interface", etc) aren't the nice cool blue color. How do I get that?
BTW, if anyone is having problems copying settings.apk into system/root using ES file Explorer, after you click "Mount File System (mount /system as writable)", you need to close ES, then restart.
It has to do with the parameters set by the Ice10 theme. This is probably out of our control, unless someone edits the theme file itself to change the codes and such. Way out of my ability, anyways.

Since I am only new to the forums I can't post in the Rom dev area.
I just installed Rom from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2481828
I was wondering if anyone knows how to remove the mobile signal icon from the status bar. It's great to have the stock Samsung Android 4.1.2 on my Galaxy Tab 7.7 wifi model, even if it's not perfect.
I have root access, so if it's just a matter of removing an app, i can uninstall it.
Peter
I'm pretty sure the process will involve de/re-compiling etc. Maybe SystemUI.apk. If you have data options in your device settings menu, settings.apk might need to be looked at as well.
Edit: I will take a look at a few things when I return home (away working).
Priority (apart from family) is a P6810 SkyHigh JB kernel, then followed by possible stock ROM mods, tweaks, or maybe a even a SkyHigh custom ROM - just for fun. Maybe not too, supporting a release takes precious time and testing, which I have very little ATM. Kernel release and support will be enough.
But last priority will be looking at (trying) removing any P6800 specific parts from the firmware, providing they don't impact the ROM or 'negative' effect on performance.
Please post any other firmware observations that shouldn't be on our Wi-Fi model.
Thanks.

The following APK can be safely removed : /preload/symlink/system/app/secphone.apk
It will also stop the tablet to try to access any mobile signal... Which cannot be achieved anyway as it is only a wifi version... Thus draining the battery for no reason..

I just installed the new Multi Window version of the Rom, which is great. However, I was wondering how you enable the Split screen mode. The apps all launch in resizable Windows, so you can have many running, I click on the pin button (which somewhere I read might switch modes) but it doesn't seem to work.
Elsewhere, I read that you need to change the DPI of the tablet in the build.prop file? Mine is currently on 160, I think some said 176 might be required to activate the split screen?
Anyone know the answer to this?

Sorry about the late reply. Computer HD crashed :/
Anyways here are the steps.
1)Decompile SystemUI.apk
2)Go to com/android/systemui/statusbar/policy/StatusBarPolicy.smali <---Make a backup of this file before proceeding.
3)Find 'phone_signal_2' and delete the invoke-virtual 'setIcon()' method after it. (The invoke-virtual setIcon() method MAY NOT be immediately after 'phone_signal_2'. There maybe other lines in between. DO NOT delete those.)
4)Repeat Step 3 for EVERY instance of 'phone_signal_2'.
5)Recompile SystemUI.apk(don't forget to delete classes.dex from the 'keep' folder )
6)Push it back to your phone and change permissions to rw-rw-r
7)Reboot & Enjoy the extra status bar space

I have played about, setting the dpi to 176 in build.prop does change it from windowed mode to split screen. However you need to change the default launcher from touchwiz before changing it from 160 to 176, as touchwiz is configured to only work at 160dpi, it crashes on any other dpi. The Samsung keyboard also has the same issue, so switch to google keyboard or SwiftKey before rebooting to bring the dpi into effect.
Also samsung calculator, camera and memo don't work at 176dpi. But if you get the photosphere camera from Android 4.3 from the s4 google edition it works.
I have seen that some have modified touchwiz to work at different dpi settings, so there might be another way to fix the Samsung apps.
If you change the dpi to 184/186, you get phablet mode for notifications, which looks more like the note 8 layout.
I think at different dpi the multi window changes mode. At 160 its like the note 10.1, with resizable Windows. At 176, its more like the note 8.
On a side note 176 dpi also fixed a bug in the aview app in the play store which would crash in portrait mode when launching videos from the Abc iview service.
how do you change this settings?

I changed the dpi by using es explorer from the play store, you can mount /system as read/write and then edit /system/build.prop
You set the lcd density to 176. Save and reboot. But make sure you change your launcher first, otherwise you will have touchwiz crashing. Another app that crashes when not running at 160 dpi is the Samsung task manager. But at 176 dpi, the split screen and windowed modes both work, the little pin in the left corner switches between modes
My next question if anyone knows. The v4 multiwindow systemui.apk, is different from the one in the p6810 rom, that is the one from the p6800 multiwindow post, if i replace my current systemui.apk, will this fix my not having split screen at 160 dpi?

I tried replacing systemui.apk, and this copy crashed, so I went back to the copy that came with the new Rom (the working copy is 4 mb, where as the one in v4 was about 2.5mb).
I tried 156dpi, as a test, and Touch Wiz and Samsung apps work fine at this DPI, they don't crash, but then the split screen bar doesn't show, but the apps launched in windows do seem to snap to the width of the screen at 156dpi. So I think the Touchwiz / Samsung apps have some sort of upper DPI limit coded into them. So, if anyone knows how to increase this to 176dpi, this would make the Rom perfect.
Samsung APK's that would need fixing from what I can see are
- Touchwiz
- Task Manager
- Camera
- Calculator
- Memo
Great news. I tried the modified systemui.apk and after it initially crashed after replacing the 4mb version, I decided to reboot anyway to see if it worked. It does, but better than that it works at 160dpi. Split screen works!
Also you need the double lcd dpi setting in build.prop for the split screen bar to work properly.
So don't worry about the initial crash, swap over. You also get the multi screen layout tool on the system bar. If you get the version from the p6810 stock android 4.1.2 thread it also eliminates the no mobile signal icon. Finally its almost perfect !
The latest Multi-Window ROM is really good.
I did some basic tests and it seems quite good.
Cannot believe Samsung aren't putting together a Jelly Bean ROM for P6810...
Anyway flashed this ROM and tested a few things.
Globally it seems very good.
I have spotted a few cosmetic issues but I guess this is because this ROM was designed for the P6800:
- Mobile Data Icon still there,
- About device/Status, crashes.
One major problem I have though is the fact I cannot mount my 64GB Cruzer Fit (FAT32) with this ROM anymore.
This is quite a show stopper and was wondering if anything could be done about this.
I did some more testing. The modified systemui.apk and the samsung multiwindow can sometimes have a double split screen bar. Both work, but are seperate to each other so when you move one the app snaps to it, but you move the other and it snaps to it.
Not sure the exact trigger, but if you disable multiwindow in settings, you can still launch multiwindow apps using the system bar quick launcher at the bottom of the screen that is in the new modified systemui.apk.
If you go back to the original systemui.apk after using the new one, split screen actually works at 160 dpi. So i am guessing it makes some files that fix the issue at 160 dpi. The only slight issue is the split screen bar is slightly small at 160dpi.
Another bug with the modified systemui.apk is if you hold down the home button the google now quick launch ring appears in the wrong location, off to the side. The original systemui.apk doesn't have this issue. Anyway, just feedback incase someone can fix these bugs.
Feedback on the great ROM
I am now using this ROM on my GT-P6810 and I have to say it is really good with the Kernel from UpInTheAir.
I can now mount an external 64GB CruzerFit USB key. I am getting a strange white square in the menu bar though.
I cannot copy to the key but can read from it.
The work that has been done so far is great though. Thanks to both. How hard will it be to remove any (if possible) non GT-6800 menus, I don't know but it is very usable. I have no idea why Samsung haven't done such thing really. This tab still rocks!
There is one thing I would really love though and that will be to be able to write to external key. When I try do do so the key is unmounted automatically. The OS start writing to it the it is being dismounted...
IMO, Ubuntu is the greatest of the fonts. It's similar to stock, but scales down just a little better, and has a few slight differences I really lack the tact to explain. Anyway, though this was for the Galaxy S2, I just tried it, and it works in Sense for Lollipop. Just install like a normal app, and then you can choose it in Settings → Display → Font. Don't like it? Simply change back.
