Question Facebook app tablet view? - Xiaomi Mi Pad 5

I bought the Xiaomi Pad 5 (Global Version) yesterday. I'm using an android tablet after 7 years. I remember there being a different UI for the Facebook app on tablets. But now I'm getting the same UI as the mobile app which is not very usable on this large screen. Tried googling to see if Facebook stopped using the tablet UI or not, but can't find any relevant results. Is there a way to get the tablet view?

No, i dont think it will have. But we can change dpi setting to dedicated app by using xposed framework. Need rooted device.

Thank you all. Xposed + App Settings fixed this problem.

Go to settings > accessibility > vision > font size (change to desire size). No need to root.
I went the other way and changed the DPI because everything was too large on Tiny... Still not happy with how big the notification window is - I wish I could change just the font size of it, but I'd have to do SystemUI and using 160 will get me the right text size, but I won't be able to control it with my fingers...
I use an app called Font Size.
Thank you this makes apps font size bigger specialy in xda app

This is perfect but it requires root access. Since my first attempt at rooting my new T707A with CF-Autoroot ended with a trip to the AT&T store for a replacement tablet, I'm a bit gunshy to try that again.

textdroider dpi app in Playstore (need root)
This is the Font Size app I use on my unrooted Tab S. It is no longer available on the playstore - who knows why? - but seems to work just fine. My apologies to the developer if I have violated some sharing/uploading rule.

It works great on the system fonts but has no effect on fonts inside the app. For example, I have a GPS app and I want to make the directions larger (I drive a big truck for a living and the tab is arms length away. It needs to be at standard reading distance to be read easily while driving). So far the only solution seems to be to lower the screen resolution and thats impossible without rooting as far as I can tell.
Still nothing for the T707A?

I also have the 8.4 and have discovered the difficulties of finding apps properly coded for this size. But I have found a few things that have made it pretty manageable under most circumstances:
Use Big Font - it is presently available in the Play Store and it works well.
I've searched for browsers that do three things: good reflow, move easily between mobile and desktop site, and....one browser that allows for a change of font size on a pull out menu, which it then remembers! None of these browsers are perfect in that all seem to sometimes lag etc., but you can read them.
Yandex Browser (install the browser only). This has excellent reflow and allows change between desktop and mobile sites. Some sites allow for font size change more easily in one mode and some in the other. It doesn't seem to load as quickly as Atlas.
Atlas Browser (purchase the Plus Key version). This has a pull out from the right which allows for default settings (mobile/desktop), (hi-fi, low-fi, text), and then, under advanced options, you can adjust the text size by %. It says it remembers settings for each site and it seems to do so for most. The only problem I have with Atlas is that sometimes it freezes and I don't know why. But it's still my go to browser most of the time. When you first start, it loads "processes" which can be annoying. However, sometimes you can just say "skip" and it will manage to load as it goes. It's only slow the first time during the session during which you're using it.
Firefox The newest version shows hope and is not as slow to load pages.
I don't use the stock browser because I haven't been able to get a readable size font AND get it to reflow. If anyone knows how to get the stock browser to reflow, please let me know.
I use these browsers in place of separate apps for Facebook, Amazon etc. And I do this because I have better control over readability.
Hope this provides some options.

Sorry for replying to myself BUT hooray doing the same thing over expecting a different result worked. Well almost. In Xposed/App Settings/Facebook I set Font Scale = 200 and Screen (dp) 480x854. THEN SAVE, CLOSE ALL AND REBOOT. I have BIG font :fingers-crossed:
The FB icons are still tiny but we have progress. Thank you XDA & Google.

The Screen shots are taken after installing exposed framework and adding few tweeks to the ROM. I am using Google Music Play app and working perfectly far better Sound quality than the stock rom. The Play Store will update after updating Google Play Service. Wait over Wifi network, it will prompt automatically.

Thanks for the suggestion, but...
I have the same issue. The path to the settings on mly phone does not exist as typed above. I do find:
Settings>Device>Accessibililty>Vision>Talkback.
Talkback is off, still having the issue.
I've looked through the other menus (only at main level), and do not find a Personalization option.
If you really want for the calculator to stop talking:
Settings - Device - Accessibility then under Services switch off Keeper Fastfill
I use Keeper a lot for auto login so switching this off is not an option for me.

Actually I have already downloaded one. Calcu looks very nice. I was thinking it didn't have a memory , but, the pull down looks like it will serve for that.
For some reason I can't disable the stock calculator. But it's no big deal.

Do you have greenify installed by any chance? That was causing the issue for me and uninstalling fixed it.

Not worth it to me. Keep Greenify, and download a different calculator. (I personally don't use s-voice)
Mine's doing this too and I don't have Greenify installed. Went through accessibility settings and couldn't find anything that fixed it. I downloaded a new calculator, so it isn't a big deal. Still wondering if this is a bug, a setting, or a conflicting app.
Maybe if those that are experiencing this issue can post their a installed apps it may help?
I suspect that if accessibility is enabled for particular softwares like Keeper or LastPass the issue with the calculator pops up. I'm sure there are other apps that could cause it as well. Since I needed lastpass more than the stock calculator I installed calc+ and use that instead. I ran it through mw pen enabler to process its apk to support multi window mode.

Found what it was on mine. Pie Control.....
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using XDA Free mobile app
for me, it was keeper. The thing about it was that I had "turned off" keeper so i couldn't access the settings. I had to turn it back on, go into the settings, change whatever it was that was causing the speech, then turn keeper back off. Then it was fine. So weird how you can turn off an app but the settings still apply.
This is NOT a bug.. per se.
These apps that are causing this to happen, are not even close to using Android as it was designed. They have found a back door to access certain functions in a way that used to require root. They use a work around, and that work around causes the speaking apps. They are definitely not using the accessibility services as they were designed to be used.
That said, those apps do extend the function of the device for a minimal negative impact. So as with all the things that make android great... its a personal decision on how to manage your device, and what you prioritize. Keep the functionality of these apps and work around the "bug" or uninstall the app and silence the calculator.
They will not fix the "bug" because it caused at the root level and the devs have no way to make changes there, and Google doesn't support these features using the accessibility services as a a backdoor way to automate the phone. Most likely they will close the loophole at some point.. the most definitely will not formalize it.

Sorry but I am not as educated as you are on these options,. Example: how do I check the background load and what is considered a normal range. Which developer options should I be looking at. I only have debugging enabled and only allowing 2 background apps to be running at a time. As I type this reply the app Cooltool is showing that my CPU% is between 61% and 97% and I have approximately 400 to 300MB of memory.

There is a app process or service keeping your load high.
You can track it down by using that same cool tool app.

Thanks for your help. With your suggestions I found them and now running much much better.
On another topic I noticed you have done some custom developing for the SM-T800. I have rooted all of my previous tablets but not this one because I know that it will be updating to Lollipop shortly and I want to update first. Will you be doing any custom developing for Lollipop?

Question Simple timer/stopwatch app with always-on screen, no sound

I'm looking for a simple timer app that enables always-on screen while it's running, and is completely silent.
Does such a thing exist for Pixel Watch? I've tried a few but no luck.

You best bet is to gather your thoughts > search the Playstore for any app related to what you are looking for > search for the apk for that particular app > sideload the apk to the Pixel Watch.
