Rom with Multi-Window? - Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Do any roms for the kindle fire have multi-window?

What do you mean by that? There are applications that support floating/pop out mode, if that's what you mean, and any cm 10/10.1 should support it

I didn't think so I was just curious. Seems like a neat feature.
Thanks

I wish we had multiwindow........

That would be nice
that would be a nice feature for the kindle as it has a 7 inch screen but i dont know how well it would run on the KF1. Hopefully!! haha

So far the best multitasking you can get is the switch between applications feature. That's the button to the right of the home button.
Hope that helps.

are you rooted? you need a ROM that has the fastkey softglow mod.
In AOKP, you can turn it off and lag is gone.

That's odd, it should take into effect immediately. Do you have any themes or mods flashed over it? You may need a clean build.
Also, are you on the stock kernel (one that comes with AOKP) or a custom one?

(video) T989 NexusMod 3.8 ROM

Hey this is for anyone who hasn't tried the NexusMod ROM for the t989. This is a quick video i made just to show what the ROM is like. The video lags at some points, that is because the capture software (the rom runs very smooth). This video is of the latest release of this ROM 3.8, and also this ROM with the Apex Launcher.

FINALLY!! Touch-auto-exposure in Jelly Bean camera!!

For the longest time most Android camera apps are incapable of auto adjusting exposure to suit the touch-focus area, a feature that's found in HTC Sense camera and iOS camera. Not sure if this has been mentioned, but I just realized that this feature has finally been added to Jelly Beam on GNexus!! For this feature alone I'll stick with Jelly Bean instead of AOKP ICS.
Just wanted to share this as I thought some might find it useful.
Cheers.
--
Edit: I'm really surprised by how many people have absolutely no idea what touch-exposure is. The keywords are highlighted in red above. If you still have no idea what it does, borrow an iPhone from your friend, try touch-focus a few different areas with different brightness levels within the same view, you'll know what I'm talking about. Sadly most people don't even know what they are missing out....
This is awesome if true!

Of course, but until then, this makes it easy for me to choose between AOKP ICS & JB.

I think it's automatic... uh "touch-auto-exposure" is in the name. Wherever you touch on the screen automatically applies the correct exposure.
You can also take pictures while recording video, just tap on screen.

I'm always baffled why Google didn't implement this earlier. iOS and HTC Sense have had it for a while.
And guess what, even Galaxy S3 still does NOT have this feature..
better known as touch to focus :silly:
I'm confused. What exactly are we talking about? Does touch-to-focus do something it didn't do before? And autofocus doesn't do it?
I think Touch to Focus was absent in AOSP until JB. I used it today without realizing it is a new feature, works exactly as it should.

If you're already on Hybrid, you should be able to flash it directly on top of RC1.

I believe the threshold is at a dpi of 160. It's pretty tiny for my eyes at least. You can change the dpi in the rom toolbox app that's included.
If we are coming from another ROM do we just flash the multidpi fix or flash RC1 and then the fix?

I dont see why you would need the multi DPI fix if your not running a smaller DPI, the fix is just so the apps included in the fix can handle the DPI change.

Not Touchwiz that i know of....you will have to use another laucnher to fill the screen properly with a smaller DPI.
maybe if someone modded it i guess

It seems like the app checks for resolution and/or screen density. Restoring the nav bar height to stock fixed it for me.

That's great in theory but you get misaligned themes then that look ugly / don't work properly. I'm watching the app but until they can support full screen I won't be using it.

Yes, it actually does. I'm using CM10.2 NIGHTLY, and it works fine. Plus, many other people with custom roms say it works. If you're on a Nexus 4, or any other device with no hardware keys and just soft keys, make sure that soft keys are ENABLED. (if this STILL doesn't work, I think it must be that it only works with AOSP roms)

You pointed out the reason why they don't support custom nav bar height / expanded desktop: how can they possibly align the themes if there are thousands of space configurations for the same device? Supporting the stock configuration seems like the most logical and reasonable choice.

This is only a Beta app and this kind of support has to come or it will ale off massively imo.
I was using Buzz Launcher until recently and that handles many screen sizes / configurations without issue. I feel in time Themer can achieve or even surpass this level.
