What to we need so that tablet mode (like on gnex or note) to work on our one x?

Would something like this be possible as a feature in a custom rom? Or is it already out there and I just haven't found it yet?
Edit: I am aware of the ParanoidAndroid hybrid rom but would like it to just do tablet mode when plugged into the TV. Similar to how motorola phones did when using the lapdocks
So I was using S Note and it suddenly switched to S Pen only mode when I got out of editing mode (I think, I'm not 100% sure when it switched). I couldn't toggle it back (pressing the button did nothing) and this wasn't just limited to the S Note app, I the screen itself only recognized my S Pen, not my hand, regardless of what app I was running or if I was on the home or lock screen. I got it to recognize my hand again by removing Evernote from my running apps (holding down the home button) and going to the same note but using the actual S Note app (which I assume runs within Evernote when you open a note from the Evernote app). This has happened before but I just turned off the tablet and when I turned it back on, everything was fine.
I just got the tablet (my first!), mind you, so please bear with me if this is a stupid/rookie mistake but I can't even find an option to limit the screen to detect only the S Pen besides when I'm in S Note. I got this tablet refurbished so I need to know if this is simple user error or something's glitchy with the tablet itself.
If it matters, I have a Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 running on 4.4.2.
Never had that problem in the Year I have had this tablet and can't say I have read anyone of complaining of that either but I could be wrong.
I could be wrong but I'm only aware of the setting in Sketchbook pro to allow it not to recognise your hand not sure of any other apps or settings (tbh never needed to use it apart from when using sketchbook).
Hi everyone,
first off, I've spend days now trying to find a fix. If I've missed anything, I'm sorry, it wasn't for lack of trying.
Here's the situation: I have acquired an HTC One X earlier this year which has worked quite flawlessly. I went ahead and unlocked the bootloader and installed a custom recovery. However, since I handed the phone off to my not-so-techy sister I did not use a custom ROM, and after the HTC update failed with the custom recovery I reversed that as well. The device should now be stock everything with unlocked bootloader.
After a few months my sister encountered heavy problems, though. She described them as battery related (wouldn't turn on correctly) and eventually she moved to a new phone. Now I have gotten the device back and I am trying to fix it. After charging it I managed to have it boot once. However, I but it to the side and wanted it to load some more. Ever since then the screen doesn't come on. The charging LED seems to work fine (eventually switched from red to green, too, indicating that the device is fully charged) and the button backlight still works, too. Most significantly though, the device is recognized as MTP device in Windows: I can access all the data in the storage without problems.
I have read that there is an issue with the HTC One X and the display connector so eventually I went ahead and took the device apart. It's lying in front of me now in pieces, but I still couldn't get the screen to come alive. The obvious conclusion would be to buy a new screen but the device doesn't feel like it's worth the investment. Besides, I would like to know for sure that it's the screen before I do anything.
So I turn to you guys and ask if you have any idea how I could access the phone via my computer. I tried to boot it up in bootloader mode but due to the strange standby methods HTC is using and not seeing anything on the screen I haven't been able to do that yet: Whenever I connect my USB cable it's recognized as MTP device, not ADB. Debugging seems to be deactivated so that doesn't seem to be an option. Does anyone have any idea how I could get the phone to talk to my computer (i.e. get into the bootloader or ADB screencast for sure)? With my Galaxy S I could simply plug in this dummy micro USB and would be sure to end up in download mode.
Any help is appreciated!
tl;dr: HTC One X screen is dead but LEDs work, is recognized as MTP device. How to make it talk to the computer?
Thanks,
rien
Alright, sometimes just posting stuff like this helps already. I was now finally able to get the phone into fastboot (apparently) and it's reacting to the fastboot commands. I suppose the next step is to load CWM and connect via adb. This way I can at least do a factory reset.
Does anyone have any ideas regarding the original issue with the screen? Especially since it does seem to work occasionally. And doesn't show any fragments...
Can I enable USB debug mode from within the recovery to work in the system?
Hi All,
Hoping someone can give me some info regarding recovery mode.
I have two Fire TVs, One is is bricked at the White Amazon Logo, the bootloader is partially unlocked so there is no hope there.
it was rooted and has TWRP installed.
The other works perfectly - stock standard.
I've read every forum and article I can find regarding recovery mode triggered by keyboard, here's where things get interesting.
I am yet to get into recovery mode, in fact I am yet to see any life on any of the 3 keyboards I have tried, 2 x USB, 1 PS/2 with a USB converter. In my efforts to get into recovery mode I tried the same technique on my other working fire TV, same result.
I've tried pressing Alt, I & Prn Scrn for a few minutes, pressing the command fast, slow, continuously, no life, no response.
The only time the keyboard shows any life is on my working unit at the Fire TV home screen, LEDs, Ctrl, Alt & Del work etc.
My question to those who have managed to get into recovery mode - does the keyboard you connect show any life in terms of Caps Lock, Scroll Lock LEDs?
Something else I noticed was a fair portion of people who managed to get it right were using wireless keyboards K400 etc.
do you think that is the key?
The whole reason I haven't given up hope on my bricked unit is because I cannot get into recovery on my working fire tv either, what's the secret?
@AFTVnews.com please could I get your advice here
Has anyone got a working home mode or daily board apk? I really like the idea of it.
