Apologies if this already been brought up before
Is there an app similar to battlinesvc
http://www.xda-developers.com/forum/showthread.php?p=5756511
Available for android that shows a battery bar a few pixels wide across the top of the screen. Its probably the only thing i miss from wm.
Cheers
Rob
I used to use this on WM as well, and I loved it! However, I don't think the android system is going to allow it, unless you go to a third part launcher that has it built in. LauncherPro feature idea?
i didnt think apple would do the same htc feature like opining directly from lock and the screen pinch like in htc android phones at home screen to show the whole pages although they made it for albums .... and android top curtain notification specially after she sent samsaung to court but ofcourse open source will not ask for stealer
but respect to apple who didnt force their user to buy a new phone just to get ios update.. camera button is the volume button in iphone 4
no need to buy anew phone to have wp7 because we dont have three buttons HTC !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm combining two questions/issues here so I don't fill up this forum.
1. I heard a rumor (or read it somewhere going through this forum?) that the custom ROMs for the 3113 rarely implement the IR drivers as a means of being more compatible with other versions of this tablet. Is this true? Are there ROMs that support IR? As a TS owner, this is fairly important.
2. Nova launcher - perhaps this is more of a complaint session than a question: On every device I've owned, I've seen hacks and mods to attempt to get "tablet mode" working on a 7" device. Overall, I believe the attempt is to get launchers to look more tablet like. Yes, the soft buttons move to the left, and the menu locations change, but overall, I'm assuming the holy grail everyone is searching for is the tablet look on the launchers.
I saw a support section on the Nova website where the developer stated that creating phablet and tablet modes was hokey and pointless (paraphrasing). My question would be, has anyone attempted to mod Nova to support a tablet mode on a 7" device? Really all we're asking for here is to move the side located launch bar to the bottom, allow the side margins to change pages, and put the search bar on the top.
Is this really that big of a deal??? What is it with this belief that a 7" tablet owner should be happy with a phone interface, and why are the devs of the launchers too stubborn to give us the option to decide how we want our layout? Is there something I'm missing here?
I've been through every launcher ever made (practically), and to date, I've only seen one offshoot of ADW do what we're asking, but unfortunately, performance was down, it was a little buggy, and I believe the dev may not have been babying the development.

1. To the best of my knowledge, the IR issue is based on the fact that it is proprietary software that belongs to Samsung - and they have not released the code, or given permission, etc for it to be used. The only "custom" roms that will have the IR option will be those using a stock Samsung rom as its base.
2. I cannot respond to the Nova Launcher question

Ah... That clears up a lot. Unfortunate as I thought Samsung was one of the leaders in open sourcing their code.

To point 2, the phablet ui was pushed by Google in jellybean. It has nothing to do with the homescreen devs. If you use a tablet ui hack, Nova works fine.

Well, really all a homescreen dev would have to do is allow us to move the the dock and search in portrait, right? I understand that tablet ui moves a few of the menus, etc, but I myself don't care that much about that (maybe I'm alone on this?. The big potatoes for me is the main home ui as I really don't like the dock on the side...
The control moving would be nice, but much lower on my list.

Doesn't ADW EX allow for the tablet-like homescreen option? I know you can put the dock on the bottom as opposed to the side, and the redesigned action bar can be put at the top. Only thing it doesn't do is put system UI in tablet mode.

Hi, all!
I, and I'm sure many of you as well, have a lot of icon themes / sets installed to my device (currently a VZW Samsung Galaxy Note 3). Lately, I've been sticking with Nova Launcher Prime, and I've noticed that I can click through a few layers of menu to see my currently active icon set. I tend to change these sets pretty often, and sometimes I can't remember which one I'm running. Now, granted the answer is only a few taps away at any given moment, but I'm interested in hooking into wherever Nova is storing that variable and making it available to Zooper Widget Pro so that I can stick it in a cute little box on my home screen.
Yes, this is more an academic pursuit than a functional necessity, but does anyone have any idea if that's doable, and even better where I would start?
Any ideas will be greatly appreciated
Thanks!
Tom.
Phone: "Samsung Galaxy A50"
OS: Android 10

Developer Menu Active
Hello;
My problem, ironically, comes from a drawback strictly from style rather than substance. The Samsung Galaxy A50 is designed for aesthetics rather than common sense and the rounded edges on the sides and the rounded corners do look pretty nice, but when combined with a full screen App results in pushing things very tight to the edge and making it difficult to operate the Apps designed for square corners. My question is poised around asking if there is a reliable App I can use to create and adjust the visual screen size, pushing the UI into a position where the screen is rectangular with square corners instead of the rounded ones. Is there a trick I can use? An App that will work without needing root? ADB command? I'm really open to suggestions.
I appreciate any and all help, and thank you for simply reading this question with the intent of helping someone. Be well, and stay healthy.
Marc
