[Q] Grid Size higher than 7x7 CM10 - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

I'm currently running ARANOIDANDROID 2.53 and I really love how I can change the size of how my apps run and my usable destop space. but the CM10 trebuchet launcher only alows 7x7 which is okay for the colums but it leaves large gaps for the rows. Is there anyway to get past the 7x7 max setting? I found a flash for CM9 but am scared to try it.

I'm not sure about the cm9 flash. But to change the options available you'd probably have to decompile the launcher and edit the code.
Your best bet would be to ask in the thread and hopefully the dev or someone else will have an idea for an alternative launcher or may know if the cm9 one would work. (I wouldn't guess it will as its an ics version being put on a jb rom. But you never know till you ask!)
If you wind up trying to flash a mod like that, just be sure you have a nandroid backup and be certain the mod was made for this device!

Ported Touchwiz ClockPackage.apk v2.4 working on ICS and JB

TouchWiz Stock Clock app
New Holo Themed version from Gyebro
To anyone interested, Gyebro has put together a Holo themed version of my clock package, he has put a lot of work into it too, there are a lot of visual fixes and it looks and runs great on 4.1.2.
Check out his thread
[PORTED][APP][HOLO] Holo themed TouchWiz ClockPackage
And a bunch of screenshots here
If you like it, head over to his page and hit thanks
***New Update 22th September 2012***
This is a ported touchwiz clock from the Samsung stock roms. It is tested and working on ICS roms and most Jelly Bean roms. This app has been tested in 240dpi (as it is designed for) and 210dpi, tested in English and French. Any graphical problems you might experience are a direct result to changing the dpi, I will not be accepting requests to change the visual layout of the app because as it is it is completely stock and working perfectly for 240dpi (the intended dpi for this phone)
This app is fully functional except for;
1. the map for the world clock (the world clock is working thought)
2. the popup notification notification that tells you your alarm will go off in X hours and X minutes
3. the color of what you have selected in the snooze options (you will be able to see what is selected in the main alarm screen
apart from these minor details everything else is working. Please do not post to tell me about these things, I already know.
I have added languages from all app versions that I could get my hands on. All the usual languages are included, I have recently included Hebrew and Arabic? as requested. If your language is not supported please tell me, and if possible send me a clockpackage.apk from a stock rom with your language (one that you are sure your language is included in)
This clock app is SGS3 themed where possible. See screenshots below.
I have also included a v2.4 +extras zip, this includes the Samsung digital clock widget (SGS3 themed), the Samsung Accuweather widget with transparent background, the Samsung memo app, and ThinkFree Office app.
If you dont want these extras please use the other zip - v2.4
If I have helped you at all, please hit the thanks button
or feel free to buy me a beer / donate
Please test it before you use it!
I will not be held responsible for people who wake up late and lose their job, or miss a flight, etc.
I wont be held responsible for people bricking their phones by doing dumb stuff, just follow the instructions.
Instructions
Copy to zip file to phone SDcard, reboot into CWM and flash, reboot, enjoy
If you are using a previous version of this clock apk please --> backup and delete the old file (HybridTWClock******.apk) from your /system/app folder and then install the new zip in CWM
If you are using CM9 or CM10 or a rom that already has a clock app (deskclock.apk), please note that you do not need to delete the existing clock app for this one to work, - but if you do delete the existing deskclock.apk this one will still work as a stand alone clock

Cheers, will give it a whirl to see if it works on newer M5 AOKP builds
EDIT: My god, i love you, it works perfect on Hydra 1.0.3 based on AOKP M5.... this was exactly what i was looking for
Nice one It works. But is it possible to fix the popup indicator?
I love ics but missed the TW clock/alarm/timer - thank you.
Just letting you know that so far it has worked well with Task's AOKP ROM on my Galaxy S2
Fantastic made. Working like a charm on Aokp Roms!!
But could you do it. Also multi dpi usable? Would be soooooooo nice!

Works like a charm on Stock ROM too!!
This saved my day cuz it fixed the "accidentally-restored-from-GB" Issue (FC on setting new alarm).
Bonus, it's themed like i like it ;-) Great job!!
Swyped from my GT-I9100 using XDA App.
Well, it's working on ParanoidAndroid too http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1580070
A big thanks for this one!
but one minute i thought it was the original clock (alarm) from the galaxy SII (latest ics stock roms) but it isn't
but hey, it's better than the aopk version....
maybe you can also find a way to do the very same with the galaxy sII clock? that's realy a beauty
Edit: I saw your other tread about this, and i hope you will manage to port the touchwizz calendar also! Great job!
Thanks, this seems to work well on my Galaxy Note (GT-N7000) running CM9.
I run my Note in tablet mode so the usual DPI incompatibility as with most TW apps is there. But I like the functionality so don't care to much about these layout distortions.

There is a thread for TouchWiz Calculator & Clock Apps for Galaxy Nexus from XanSama here
I think the screen layout should be the right size for galaxy note, and from what I've read its fully functional too, I'm not sure about the calendar though

Awesome, working on task650's AOKP for SGSII. Was missing my timer/stopwatch terribly.
Would this allow svoice to properly set alarms or do we need an entire framework?

This alarm is working with Svoice on my galaxy SII (paranoiddroid)
yes, it is working for me too with s-voice on the i9000 with this clock app
Fantastic! That is the only thing svoice wasn't doing for me....
Do I need to delete the old clock.apk from /system/app first?
EDIT: Clearly not Can I if I want to on CM9 without causing problems though?
Also - any easy way for me to resize this for 182dpi?
Yeah, you don't need to delete the old deskclock app, but you can if you want to, it will still work.
Changing the size... I'm not so sure, but there is another thread here with the screen size setup for the galaxy nexus / galaxy note. I'm not sure what that will give you if you change your dpi, it might work out though.
Just to clarify, I do still get a force close when setting the alarm with s-voice, but the alarm does still sound at the right time.

Ah I had this setting the alarm before but force closing. I was hoping that this would actually open - guess we need the framework for that then.
Thanks dude worked like a charm. Only slight cropping problem at the bottom? Glad someone attempted this port. Looking forward to anything else up develop.

[Q] Navbarsize zip/mod

Hey guys.
Got a little question. Using AOKP at the moment. I like the option to set the navbarsize myself. Is there a possibility via mod or flashable zip to get change the navbarsize? Found a flashable zip to change the size to 2/3 of the original size. but i´d like to have 24dp =1/2 of original size.
can anyone make a flashable zip or mod to change it? i´m very addicted to aokp, because there´s no other rom that makes this size possible. always when i try other roms i get back to aokp because of the navbar. the size of 1/2 of navbar is pretty perfect to me, it´s still very responsive, but uses less space.
i´d be very greateful for some help
thanks in advance

AOKP has it built in.. It is under rom control/navigation bar

[Q] Venom sensations rom

Ok so i would of posted this in the development thread of the rom but I don't have 10 posts yet. Anyways I downloaded the rom but for whatever reason it comes with nova launcher instead of apex which I see in the video review. It's really not that big of a deal but I want the themed app draw button from the screen shots lol.
I cant figure out why I just have the regular app draw icon, is this because they changed it with the newer updates/versions?
I know this must seem very silly but its frustrating the hell out of me!
Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks!

Yes its because I changed from apex to nova launcher. I didn't even start to theme Nova since it now supports custom icons and custom icon packs. If you want I could send you the blue image that I used on v1.0 and you can place in your SD card and change it through the launcher.

Having a hard time on CM10.1 or TW ROM ?

Just got my Note 2 a week ago, I have tried like six different ROM's, won't name names, but they were all very good. We are lucky to have such good developers on our ATT Note 2.
But now I can't settle on which type of ROM I like, Touchwiz based, or CM10.1 AOSP based ? What is your opinion ?
I like the TW ROM's, for being stock, and having the awesome S-Pen Stylus features, and fantastic battery life, but I hate the stock TW Messaging app, and sock TW Dialer/Contacts, and they all seemed just a tad choppy, or little bit of tiny lag, once in awhile. i tried some of the mods for AOSP messaging, but they all seem to have an issue, not 100% ready for daily driving yet.
Now the CM10.1 ROM's were crazy fast, super smooth, but at the cost of battery life, being almost 1/3rd that of TW ROM's, not terrible battery life, no, just not as good as Touchwiz battery. But AOSP looks really good, and I love the group messaging and vanilla text app, it works perfectly. And the AOSP Dialer & Contacts are my favorite. But with CM10.1 no S-Pen widgets or good Stylus features. But I LOVE the group message and quick reply in CM10.1, which works 100% perfectly. Why didn't Samsung allow quick reply in JB Touchwiz, and no group messaging either ? WTF Samsung
What do you prefer and why ?
Ya I jump between AOKP and CM10.1 settled on CM10.1 for now. I just like the interface and being able to be in 240dpi. As for spen I use papyrus. does what I need. The ROM size is great between 130 Mb to 200 Mb depending on the ROM. Saves space for internal storage and all. To me AOKP and CM10.1 are nice, snappy and elegant. I like sophisticated simplicity and a dark theme. Love being rooted so I can do what I want with my phone. It's only getting better. Pulse I get to run Jellybean 4.2

Are you running stock CM10.1 Nightly ?
How do you set the DPI to 240 ?
You can edit your DPI in build.prop to 240 or run Jellybeer he has a great DPI changer with DPI groups.

Thanks, so for me a newb, how do I edit that ? Can I use Root Explorer to do that ?
And what is your opinion on 240 DPI for the Note 2 ? That seems like a popular size from what I read all over the Note forums. I am daring and just edited that file with text editor through Root Explorer. Let's see what happens after a reboot ? OMFG
UPDATE; yep that worked Thanks to Nova launcher I can custom the icon size @ 110% looks a little better at 240 DPI, and then in System - settings changed font size to large. Both those changes make 240 look really good to me. Does 240 effect performance at all ?

in 240 dpi you have more screen space to put it simply you can have 6 rows and 5 colums for your icons in the app drawer and the homescreen.
just change ro.sf.lcd_density=320 to 240
Only issue is that some apps like phone.apk put the search bar at the top enstead of the bottom that is why I use jellybeer I can put systumui in a 280dpi group and that solves the issue.
That's why I like CM10.1 and AOKP you have lots of options from developers. Your not tied down by what samsung wants you to use. You can make changes.
I actually really love the 280 DPI setting, things look a little smaller, which is good, but @ 240 DPI it changed too much.
is cool we can change the DPI so easily on CM101., just one setting Root Explorer, reboot, and all done, looks great. No issues whatsoever.

[Q] Two Questions About 4.1.2 Notification Interface

1. Does anyone else find the notification font to be too big? If it was smaller, I could see more detail, in say, the Gmail notifications. Is there a way this can be changed? Also, is this different on any of the custom TW roms based on this new T-Mobile base?
2. The quick toggles are missing the data toggle. Same questions here: can this be changed? are there custom TW roms that have this? (I believe yes, since all the custom 4.0.4 roms I had included this useful toggle.)
(Note: I'm only interested in custom roms that include Wi-Fi calling, but please feel free to answer generally to help others who stumble upon this thread.)

I'm not sure about the notification font but I think you can just go into the display settings, reduce the font and see how that goes, and for the data toggles I do have one (I'm using the jedi mind trick jb rom by ptmr3) it is also customizable too. :thumbup:

I was also quite surprised by the large font size in the notifications which made everything quite crowded in there. The Display font size in settings does not affect the notification fonts unfortunately. Luckily, ptmr3's Jedi Mind Trick JB includes a nice fix for this with the Per-app DPI settings.
1. In Settings, Jedi ROM Tricks, Custom Framework Install, make sure the Framework is active by clicking Install / Update
2. At the same place, in the Modules tab, make sure Xposed App Settings is checked
3. In Settings Jedi ROM Tricks, Per-App DPI Settings, search for systemUI.
4. Toggle the switch to ON and set DPI to 200 or 210 (I use 210). Leave everything else as is.
5. Click the Save icon in the top right
6. Reboot phone and profit!
As for your second question, JMT JB does include a Data toggle

Right now I'm on the stock official JB release. I've changed the font size under the display settings to tiny, and everything seems much better now. Also if you go into setting in the Messaging App you can check a box to allow the volume rockers to change the size of the messages. This also helped me as I didn't like how big the bubbles were by default. Once you are in a convo you can press the down volume to make everything smaller.

Changing the font size in the settings does not affect the Notifications, but in general I like the small font everywhere. Next weekend, I will probably reroot. I wanted to give stock a chance. The last 6 months I've been bouncing between Infamous 3.1 and Jedi Mind Trick. I will probably give the new Jedi ROM a try.
