I tried modifying prop that did not help (tried all sorts of densities). Pls... anyone?

Build.prop edits.

Since the nexus 7 is no doubt going to be an popular device. There will be apps tailored for it. It is my opinion that a build prop change would be beneficial for our tabs.
Now all we need is the build prop fingerprint of the nexus 7

I tried using dpi changer to change the 7.7 to 213 like the Nexus 7, but got stuck in a boot loop and had to restore. Anyone else had more luck? It makes sense to try to emulate the Nexus 7 setup, it is a very popular tablet and stacks of apps will be fully compatible
Sounds interesting, we should look into this, just be careful as build.prop changes can brick you up and I would rather not go through that again if possible.....really bad fealing not having a working tab and having to pray it will come back to life again....brick bug and all
Yeah, but if we just change the device fingerprint, it should be safe. It just "tells" every app that "i'm a nexus 7!!"

Instead of using DPI Changer app I just changed the build.prop to a DPI of 213. I didnt really like it.. I have both the 7.7 and the Nexus 7 and the screen is just a bit too big on the 7.7 for a DPI of 213 - the icons look large and grainy, and it also breaks contact and calendar (planner). I've changed it back to the native DPI of 160 for now
i try dpi 230 - interface like telephone mode,but without virtual buttons. i try modify framwork-res.apk for add wirtual buttons,but its not work- tablet boot without wirtual buttons

[Q] Mod for center clock on notification bar ?

Hi,
I would like to know if someone know a mod to have the clock on notification bar centered for Nexus 4 (4.2.1)?
I would also like to know if this is possible. I guess a method that works for another phone doesn't necessarily work with the N4?

[Q] Rotation lock w/ Paranoid Android 2.99 beta-9.5

Hi ! I just got a Nexus 7, and as I will have to work on some UIs for a-non-so-unknown-little-orange-cone-on-Android, I installed Paranoid Android 2.99 beta-9.5 on my Nexus7, very great ROM I must say, the layout changing feature is quite handy and awesome, congratulations on the guys involved in it !
But I got a little "problem", I can't find a way to lock the rotation of the screen, on 4.2.1 stock you got the Rotation Lock right in the settings slider (the one you get by swiping on the right side of the status bar), but on Paranoid Android 2.99 beta-9.5 it's not here. Is a bug ? A feature ? Am I missing something ? I got a Wi-Fi Nexus 7 32Gb, I hope this can help.
Thanks in advance, and keep up the great work on Paranoid Android !

Unless I'm mistaken you can do this from settings > accessibility > auto-rotate screen. You should also be able to add a tile in the quick settings panel from somewhere in the settings. For me it's in settings > system > quick settings panel > tiles and layout.
Note: I am using CM 10,1 nightlies myself, so this may be done differently in PA.

[Q] Is 180 degrees rotation possible with phone apk?

Hello,
Because the bottom half of my screen is broken (the touch part) I cannot recieve any calls because the "pick-up-button" is on the broken part of the screen. I would like to know whether there is a phone apk that is modified that allows 180 degrees rotation so that I can pick up the phone when someone is calling me.
I'm on Cataclysm 4.4.2 if that's any help.
Cheers
You can use gravity box and enable all rotations in display tweaks

Thanks!, but unfortunately this did not work. When I'm being called, the phone apk overrules the orientation settings.

A bit of help with CM12

Hello guys i recently installed CM 12 passed from my beloved Optimus G3, anyway i wonder if it's possible to auto hide the softkeys and make them smaller, also if there is any way to get more icons in the drawer ( increase/ decrease DPI i think?) those thinks are huge!
- Also if you guys can give me some advice on what to install next, i don't like CM, will there be a lolipop version of Optimus/Cloudy G3?

Download a custom launcher from the playstore like Nova or Apex. You'll be able to set your drawer and home screen grid size accordingly. Changing your dpi within your build.prop wont actually give you more space to put icons, it just scales the graphics.
Just install CloudyG2 2.2 or CloudyStock and you'll never use another ROM again . You'll see a lot more lollipop development once all the G2 models receive the OTA update.
Thanks, for the info , do you also happen to know if there is a way to hide the softkeys, i don't think its possible to use g2/g3 tweakbox on CM right?

Not to my knowledge, CM12 is still unofficial for the G2 and doesn't contain the expanded desktop mode feature just yet like CM11 does. I say just stick with KK ROMs until Android 5 becomes stable and feature packed (aka wait a few months).

It does? Beautiful! Glad to have helped. Remember, you can tweak expanded desktop mode even more by choosing to only hide the status bar, nav bar or both.
