Hi guys!
I just upgraded to slim bean 4.3 from 4.2.8. The install went fine and the phone runs great. The problem I'm having is in the drop down screen, all the text and icons are really small. Also when I use the google search bar, when the browser opens, the text doesn't fill the entire screen, there's appx. 1/4 inch of empty screen that's not being used.. I've gone through (seemingly) everything to try and fix this, I even bought the Nova Pro to try and resize the icons.. This is driving me nuts!!
Can someone please help me ?
Slim bean DPI is 245 by default. most other roms are 320 by default. you can change your DPI under settings > interface > density

Hi everyone,
I am using AOKP ROM build 40 and I want to change page transitions or app opening transitions....
Please can anyone help me with this....I had seen some really cool transition animations like the dialog box popping from the bottom in one of my friends SG ACE ROM....
Thanks

I just use GO Launcher as my default launcher and use the animations/transitions from there. So many to choose from and for different scenarios too.
Personally, I set all my "effects" to Random. That way every time I switch home screens or enter the app drawer, it's different!

I am asking for animations which are for built in things...like the dialog box for everything or any app opening....I figured out that it can be done by editing anim folder in Res folder of framework.apk....but still I need someone to give me some some animations which are in XML format so that I can edit the apk....

I followed the instructions in the threads I found (yes I looked it up), it says to change DPI to 120 following the instructions on in Rom settings>general UI>LCD density. I changes and giving me the tablet mode, but it doesnt fit the screen. There are large spaces I cant use on my homescreen and my widgets are super small. Is there any way to have tablet mode, but keep my full homescreen? Please be helpful and not mean, 1 Single act of kindness.
what launcher are you using? try go launcher and expand the grid size...

That solved the space problem Thanks! But my app icons and widgets are still tiny, any help for this?
in the same launcher, theres an option where you can make bigger icons (preferences -> visual settings -> icons) but let me tell you that if you change the LCD density everything else will looks smaller so I recommend you to change back to 240 dpi. ( sorry for my English )

I thought for tablet mode dpi is suppose to be 128 not 120. 120 might be too small.

I actually got sick of tablet mode pretty quicky, so I went up to 160 dpi which is perfect in every way. But I just switched to Jellytime R1 by randomblame which doesnt have the rom controls, so I used toolbox to change my dpi...but I dont know where to get the correct market. This would be my last question for this thread, I'm pretty satisfied where I am atm, except for the playstore issue
Is it possible to fix camera recording on AOKP 8,5 or 8,6 rom ?
Hi all,
I'm hoping people would share their Paranoid Android UI settings here.
Some of us (me included) are having a very hard time adjusting the UI, including the status and notification areas, correctly on our Tabs.
Thanks!!

Well, I'm not sure what u mean exactly but after lots ofntweaking and testing I have settled for these:
In the launch section I'm on tablet ui(mid)
In the interface section I'm on tablet UI for all(720px - although in actuality 800px is the ideal for our tablet and u can manually modify that in the paranoid conf files if u wish, I didnt)
And for the size values in the interface section I am set to 180 for all..
Then I went to modify certain apps I wld use often: youtube, play store and my launcher
So in the apps section I chose those and adjusted their values to something that makes proper use of our wonderful screen..
Youtube size: 160, layout/ui: 800px
Play store size: 180, layout/ui: 800px
Launcher(go launcher HD) size: 180, layout/ui: 600px
But u can play around with the individual apps to test what the different settings cause, u mostly only need to change these two values..
Another question: I randomly get a screen flicker along the bottom of my screen(only on this rom though), do u get it too by any chance? just wondering..

Thanks for your stuff!
Yes I get the screen flicker, though on the side... also I've had it since sometime now, even before PA.
Not to mention, I'm a victim of SOD... any solution?

Wow, I've heard of the SOD but nvr really had the issue with any of my android devices.. are u having it only with the paranoid rom or with others too?..

Others too... I first faced it on stock ICS

None of the links are working now :crying:
Was hoping to test this 2.50 rom on my p6800..
which link is not working... ???? i just download the files from http://goo.im/rss/Androguide
got no problem...
Thanks! .. I was trying the link given from the thread instead of rss.
Currently the "Settings" button, which you can find when pressing "menu", is only able to open launcher specific settings.
I think it would be great, if we would be able to choose which settings to be opened, the system or the launcher settings.
In previous versions of android opening the system settings was default behaviour so I am wondering every time when the launcher settings come up :laugh:
What do you think?

We already have this option. But your gapps must be replacing it with Google's launcher which we can't control.
You can ask in your gapps's thread how not to replace aosp launcher with Google launcher.

Thanks for your reply. I will check this tomorrow Me and a friend (both omni users on galaxys2 intl version) had the same problem, so I was thinking this was the state of art. Tell you more tomorrow :good:
Okay, I double checked now. When I press "Menu" > Settings, I get what you see on the image attached. This is, because its not tranalated, a part of omni, isnt it? Is there a way to restore the androod default behaviour?

Is there anything I can do to let me get the phablet ui . I know paranoid android doesn't have hybrid settings yet and pacman isnt officially released so is there a way ?

The phablet ui no longer exists. Google removed it.
There were 2 things before:
Tablet/Phablet layout of SystemUI - This changed how status bar, notification drawer and navigation buttons were laid out. Google dropped the native implementation (which PA used) for kitkat. Any future implementation of this will need to be completely custom. I haven't seen that anyone has managed this yet
Tablet layout of apps - this is different. App developers may want their app to appear differently on a tablet than on a phone so they develop the app to change at a certain dpi (generally tablets have lower dpi). This still exists. It can be triggered by dropping the dpi to something that will make your eyes bleed or by using xposed+app settings module, which allows per app control of the layout using the "screen (dp)" option
Hope this helps

I think google wanted a unified experience across device types. It kind of makes sense to me. If you can use an android phone, you can use an android tablet. When I first tried a Honeycomb tablet I didn't know wtf was going on
Downgrade to jellybean.
