Google Reader Tablet Mode - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone think there's a way to set Google Reader to tablet mode on the N7? It's really annoying that Google disabled it. I think it would work great in landscape mode on the N7.

It does work great in landscape mode, use one of the free rotation apps to force apps into landscape mode.

Sorry, my post wasn't very clear. I know it "works" in landscape mode, but that's not what I mean. On a 10" tablet, in landscape mode, you get 2 panes. The left pane shows a list of articles, and the right pane shows the selected article that you're reading. As you know, on the N7, it just lists all articles. It doesn't efficiently utilize the extra space like on a 10" tablet.

Honestly I don't think it's ever used dual pane. I used it on my flyer and I don't remember it looking any different. I could be wrong, I dunno I can't remember how it looked. If it is supposed to use dual pane than then the tablet models tricks should do it

changing dpi may put it in tablet mode with dual panes. Check out paranoid android rom for per app customizations.

Nah, it definitely uses dual pane. I have a 10" Transformer Prime and it's dual pane in landscape mode.

Thanks. Maybe I'll look into it, but I think I like the "phone mode" in general on the OS. It's just Reader that I really want to change.

I downloaded Google reader just to see if I can get it in dual pane mode. It may be the options I'm setting but when I configure it to tablet UI, it remains in one pane. I'll play around with it more to see if I can get dual pane.

Setting dpi at 175 did not enable dual pane. 165 did. Thanks for this thread. I really like the reader app and didn't know it offered dual pane

Google needed to lay off the whiskey when they were designing this new 7 inch tablet ui. Honestly I like the split bar, but everything else should of just stayed the same. You think reader in single pane is bad, YouTube got totally raped! Honestly the ipad doesn't have a separate tablet ui, and I along think Google figured they needed to ditch their tablet ui to compete or something.

The nexus should have a modified tablet UI not the hybrid phone UI. Looks best IMO.

See since I've dealt with honeycomb the past 6 months on a 7 inch tablet, I would agree there was room for improvement. And honestly I live the split bar, but I don't like that the whole system favors the tablet being held in portrait, nor do I like that the recent app menu takes up the whole screen, or that dual pane has been eliminated from many apps. It needed tweaked yes but they over thought it, or maybe they didn't think hard enough. Yeah really I like the split bar as it allows for less clutter and keeps the buttons from being bumped by accident, everything else shouldn't have changed imo. The nexuses default launcher quite frankly sucks. It's pure rubbish! A freaking dock on a tablet, and a search bar that's 6 inches long wtf?

[Q] Screen rotation in Honeycomb

I have an iPad and really love the way its screen rotates anywhere I rotate the device. Left-right-bottom-up, any direction.
Can Honeycomb do this? Or can Iconia do this?
Thanks

Well, i won iconia and i have seen IPAD and IPAD2, but i think IPAD really works wonderfully smooth, Android and Honeycomb or whatever version and any android device is far away from iOS in either IPHONE OR IPAD. so you will be disappointed when u will use android cause no doubt iOS is far more smooth and better in animations like rotation etc. I know many here won't like it but i have seen both and can tell u exactly.
Yep, look for the little slide switch next to the volume rocker on the top edge.
As for iPad vs Iconia tab, ignore the Apple shill above. I have an iPad 2, the Iconia A500, and the Asus Transformer all layed out in front of me. I pick up the iPad an rotate it, and the screen rotates. I pick up the Acer and rotate it, and the screen rotates. Apple does a cute animation trick that makes you think the icons simply rotate in place (but they don't), while Honeycomb blanks out the icons then redraws them after the turn. Take about a 2-count for each to respond. Honeycomb slows down a little if you have widgets on a screen. Neither delay will prevent you from quickly getting back to work in the "new" orientation.
If the stock launcher bothers you, there are a few dozen amazing launchers to replace it using some clever animations of their own. Can't do that with the iPad.

That´s true... one iSheep here in the office said his iPad is better 'cause it has smoother transitions. I asked, and what else? He fell silent.
I really don´t understand why people prefer cute animations better.
screen rotation
Works fantastic. Plus you get a hardware lock switch to lock it in place. Sure, the EyePad might have a cuter way of rotating the screen, but when you consider no flash support, no USB host, no MicroSD slot - is the cute animation really worth it?

well tbh even though it does rotate every which way, in any other orientation other than the original landscape (with the port at the bottom) scrolling between screens shows a slight, but noticeable, framerate drop.
I'm hoping this is due to 3.0 and that the 3.1 upgrade will fix it.

Did Google get rid of tablet interface?

So all the pictures show the tablet running a phone interface and not what a tablet interface. Did Google give the Nexus 7 a phone interface instead of a tablet one or is it completely gone from 4.1?

I'm sure they didn't remove the interface entirely and the launcher displayed on the Nexus 7 isn't exactly the same as the phone interface (six permanent icons instead of four), but I'd certainly like to know if it would be possible to change interfaces easily.
During the demo, tablet versions of apps were displayed.
So basically in JB it seems that there are 3 different interfaces.
Phone: Galaxy Nexus JB/ICS setup. all phone setup
7 inch: phone style launcher/notification bar, but tablet mode for apps (gmail, G+ was shown in tablet mode)
10 inch: full tablet UI.
Honestly, it makes sense, the tablet UI does NOT work well in portrait, but the phone UI does.

true. the choice if display is done through the app.
The developer can tell it to use the tablet mode on 10", phone or tablet mode on 7" and phone mode on below 7"
many tablet apps are not optimized for a 7" display, such as youtube, so they're going to default to the phone version.
but gmail for example, loads the tablet version of the app.
No.
7" tablets just look better in portrait.
Tablet mode is designed for landscape and Gogle have saod this tab is designed for portrait use minus films and games.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
I'm hearing a lot of people say that it's because portrait mode is just better for a 7 inch device. Personally I don't think that answer suits everyone. I'd rather not conform to the ideals of others, everyone has their preference and opinions. Here is to hoping custom roms will give us a choice in the matter.
I'm hoping for a custom rom that allows per-app DPI similar to the one I'm running on my GNote.
I run in tablet mode but the rom allows different DPI settings for different apps, allowing those that need the phone UI to still look the way they should.

Any way to expand the Notification Tray?

One thing that bugs me about the iPad and Nexus 7 is that the notification tray does not cover the entire width of the screen. In all honesty, it makes the tablet just look it is running a phone OS.
Is there any way to make the tray go the entire width of the screen>?
no, not in its standard form, that's the new tray, if you have tablet UI, it only takes up about 1/4 of the width of the tray and jumps up from the bottom. I'm sure some custom rom or hackery could get you what you wanted but nothing that is available to go right now.

Strictly speaking your nexus 7 IS running a phone OS, as the interface is in phone mode and not tablet mode. If you root your device you can get it to run in tablet mode and them the tray goes to bottom right of screen.

Re-reading what I wrote, you actually make a valid point lol. I was just referring to the actual, literal size of the notification tray being virtually identical to a 4" inch phone leaving the extra space on the sides.
I know all about rooting, custom ROMs and such (major in Computer Systems) and I wasn't meaning that I wanted the Tablet UI experience. I like the stock 4.1.1 Jellybean (for now) and just wish the tray at the top was the full width of the screen. I am sure that someone will do it with a custom ROM so I am not worried about it, just curious if it is already out there.

The Nexus 7 comes with a tablet UI, unless you are talking about the old UI from HoneyComb that was depreciated a while ago. I don't understand why people are still hung up on legacy layouts.
"It's very clear what Google is doing - keeping users' attention on two general parts of the homescreen UI. The search / voice / notification area, and the app drawer / nav button area. Just like a modern Android phone. It makes sense - the experience across all [stock-ish] devices is now extremely consistent."

Except that that is simply not the case.
On phones the navigation buttons never leave the short side of the screen leaving them easily accessible with your right thumb while in landscape. On tablets the nav bar is terrible with the buttons spread out across the bottom while holding your device in landscape. The centred buttons are barely reachable on a 7" tablet like this. On 10" devices unless you are some kind of mutant, bred to be a piano virtuoso, good luck getting your thumbs where they need to go while cradling the tablet in 2 hands. Similarly the top-of-screen based notification pull down is simply not an ergonomic solution to something that you will be doing thousands of times with your device. Again this is not so bad on a device of this size, but is seriously ridiculous on large tablets.
It is all well and good for Google to say that they want users to have the same user experience across all devices, but they do not deliver on that. Given no other option, I would far rather use this tablet in full phone mode, with navigation buttons that never leave the short edge of the screen, than use the new "Tablet UI". I have actually clicked the DPI up to 340 and find the phone UI much easier to use than the default one, with the obvious exception of the full screen notification shade (which just looks ugly on this device). At least though, this configuration would be more condusive to one handed landscape navigation.
So, for me, I am going to keep using the old tablet UI as long as Google leaves the code in there for me to use and hope that they come to their senses one day over at the AOSP and realize that they've actually taken a step backwards in terms of user friendliness.
No need for nay-sayers to jump in when someone asks for a customized user experience. That's the beauty of Android! It isn't a one size fits all, apple-corer OS. The only limit is your imagination, and how much time you want to spend learning and tweaking. I say tweak on, young man, tweak on!

The new UI is much better looking, to be fair. And the notification area on the old one felt a bit rushed - for example, if a notification came in, it hijacked the entire notification area so you couldn't get to other notifications until it was gone - or at least, that's what I thought until I figured out that (for whatever reason), notifications could be cancelled by pressing somewhere else on the navbar (in other words, that 'feature' was a nuisance and user unfriendly in many ways).
I had plenty of moments where I went to get an email by opening the notification drawer when something else suddenly notified me and I ended up somewhere I didn't want to be like Appy Geek instead.
Also, the fact that it was a tap to open instead of at least a swipe upwards made no sense at all.
I get that you power users are happy to have to practice using your technology like it's some sort of art form, but please save the rest of us the bother.

Agreed, it was a very inconsistent experience. Also, trying to get expandable notifications to work properly with gestures was a pain.
That's what's great about Android on a Nexus device. You get to choose what you like and everyone will be happy.
No one option is better than another. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean someone else should not be using it.
The OP simply wanted to know if it was possible to use Table UI on the N7 v2 and everyone is on a full blown discussion of who prefers what.

I was using Nova previously. Agree Nova is also superb. I have moved over to google experience as I have a nexus phone and like the fact basically consistent. I have been using android devices for years now but only used Nova a few months ago. Really impressive how it changes the feel / look of the tablet.
Googles launcher is free of course. I got the paid version of Nova...

Hello guys,
I'm coming in from the Note Pro side and wanted to reflect the OP comments. The launcher is smooth as butter and as stated it's as though the GNL was made for the Galaxy Note lineup.

Just access the normal Samsung setting screen (by tugging the top of the screen down with your finger) and it is the 4th option from the left. Make sure it is selected... Only thing I can. Think of. Bet you have unselected it by mistake.

Yes, if you put the icons on the bottom row, then it is a dock and doesn't move as you swipe between screens.
I've got the paid Nova Launcher as well. I've stuck with it on my S3, but I haven't gone back on the tablet yet. On the S3, I thought the icons were too big and there is zero customization. However, I've enjoyed the Google Now Launcher on the tablet more so than I thought I would.
If there was a Google Now widget that is always listening that I could use with Nova, I would go back. Heck, I might still go back after the novelty of "Ok Google" wears off.
I finally did it......GREAT LAUNCHER!!!
