Question - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

OK ive been seeing a commercial for an lg phone that u can do multiple things at the same time ie: record video and text at the same time without leaving recording screen is this possible on our phone? Would it be a mod and would our device not be able to handle it?

Not happening. Its a feature the skin overlay adds. Would require porting the whole skin just like the Samsung version.

I'm confused by skin overlay what do you mean and the other party about porting.. I'm no developer but certain things can be pulled and ported to go on a phone, isn't it an apk that does it or system ui or Idk....lol

Its not Legos. You can't just pull a system app dependent on system frameworks from one device and install it to another.

You're not talking about a widget here. You're talking about system framework and things much deeper in the system. If it was that simple it would be done already.

I was also referring to the actual razor max launcher has well and had far as framework the ROM I'm on has all kind of changes in ui ... I'm going to all them if it's possible thanks though

[Project]Complete UI Theme

Hey guys, I finally figured out theming on android. After a long 3 days of screwing around installing different kernels and playing with ADB to no avail, I finally found how to push/pull different apk files on my phone. This is where the fun part begins!
First a little about my background in theming:
I originally started doing system customizations on the iPhone back in the days of "Customize" where you had to open the app to theme one system resource at a time, from the list of user-uploaded content. That got better with Winterboard where it just dynamically themes anything (but keyboards) on the system by replacing files when the system starts. It took a while, but I did end up getting an exhaustive theme over the years for my iPhone. I recently switched to android though because apple has closed all(?) the exploits to allow root access.
Anyway, I'm going to start a new journey to theme the different apps in the system to remove as much of the boring black UI as possible. On first glace it looks like the android UI is very app specific, I haven't found many unified UI elements in the system framework apks. This makes my life a whole lot easier because I can modify each app separately. I'm starting a thread on this, because it looks like it'd be easy to incorporate requests from people or get people working together to make app themes themselves. So far I've only got proof of concept, but obviously that's the hardest part.

Dev wanted for tablet mode refinements

im looking for a developer with some android background who could help to implement some changes regarding per app dpi as explained here.
what this will do is break free what many have come to call "tablet mode" but this time without blowing the phone to bits. we could have the best of both worlds: tablet UI, tablet apps (gapps, settings, youtube, everything tablet HD & related) and normal apps running in their default layouts. the problem is that google created a hole between tiny phones from 2005 and big tablets. all our phones fall in it. it makes no sense that a nexus for instance runs in 1-column layout, its ridiculous actually for such a huge screen. tablet mode, as it is right now, helps, but it forces non-tablet apps into tiny layouts.
now we've had some success with our manual mod and even some dev's jumped in to adapt their apps, nova for instance is now tablet mode ready. but we just need to dig further. without per app dpi this will only be interesting for a small audience. with the setting in check it will probablby blow over and re-define ICS as we know it.
i managed to compile cm9 and im learning how to deal with it but its so much. a simple grep for stuff takes like an hour because its gigabytes of code. it grows way over my head right now. i think i've found A. the position where the treshold for the tablet switch is implemented which could be lowered and B. how to implement individual DPI but there's stuff missing. anyone who's interested to help or lead us in this, please contact me.
ps. what we'll get will look like this:

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
with that setting it could be like that on all phones, not just high density ones like nexus.
thanks!

[Request] Full date on statusbar

Hello everyone.
I'm looking for a flashable mod that display the full date on the statusbar, next to the clock.
Some ROMs allow you to display the day of the week (FRI, SAT), but I'm looking for the full date or at the very least the day of the month.
Kindly take a look at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1491887
Here the author explains how to do it yourself, but frankly that's way above my abilities. Besides, it seems to work only for AOKP roms, and I'm using one that's AOSP-based.
If any of you feel you have some free time and can help me, ideally by making a flashable mod that does the above, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Best regards.
You could always use uccw and make it yourself you just need to have a launcher that hides your status bar....that what I did

I couldn't part with my status bar and sometimes I need to know what time and date it is while inside an app, that's why putting it next to my clock would be perfect.
You still will see it there when your in a app

Yup,can confirm black screen.
You should learn how to resize pictures with out completely screwing up the aspect ratio on them. Every one of those images is horizontally deformed.

It's kew. Honestly, I shared that I was making one on plus, and after 100+ pluses and a ton of comments, I wanted to produce a working version for everyone and "perfect" in time.

From phone to media player

Alright, long time epic 4g touch user, and a while back i reported one lost and got another. I found it yesterday and have decided to basically turn it into a media player. So I need to know if it is safe to uninstall some of the stock applications baked blackbean. I want to remove telephone, messaging, stock browser, 4g settings, and possibly a other things. Does anyone have insight as to whether or not this will cause instability?

All of the apps mentioned will cause massive force closes if deleted, basically rendering it unusable.

I will be releasing an update to the rom here soon with a script to disable the radio so you can just remove whatever regular apps that you don't want. But I agree, if you start removing the core system apps, it's going to cause a lot of problems. It has incredible battery life. Monitor the thread and we'll see how it goes.

He was asking about Baked Black Bean (AOSP)
Well, that answers my question. I'll disable their auto runs, and hide them in nova launcher. And I'll look at that rom, because if it's as good as you say it might be my new daily driver.
