[ROM][ZTE Skate] Paranoid Android - CM9 - Tablet UI (15/12/2012)

[Guest C3C0]

No issues with calibration here.

[Guest crnadakm]

Is it just me or does the proximity sensor calibration not work for this rom? I tried calibrating in the Advanced options several times now, under different circumstances, but the screen always stays on when calling (for the first minute, then I have to press power button to turn it on again). Am I missing an option somewhere? I accidentally hung up on a few calls already by hitting the screen with my ear...

+1

Can't calibrate ps ...

[Guest C3C0]

I put up a new link. It's newer release from 13/08 in which I synced framework and settings with the current CM repos.

Try it. Maybe it will solve calib issues (maybe not). As I said earlier it works without issues for me.

I was just about to reflash the rom, so might as well try the new version then :).

Will give it a try!

Are you familiar with "Reloaded ICS" ? It's a mod for notification drawer, I remember using it few months ago, but it's defunct atm.

I'm asking cuz I am just curious if there is a way of making PA notification drawer look like Mokee, Miui or Aokp notification drawer ...

I'll be usig this ROM as my new daily ROM, cuz it's just awesome.

Using it as daily, too :)

I have status bar in tablet mode and it's awesome. Pitty it cannot be at the top of the screen

Pitty it cannot be at the top of the screen

Yeah, it would fit better on Skate's screen.

I really got used to Mokee and Miui notif drawer...

Never mind, there is old saying that says:

You can't have both, the money and the goat ! :D

[Guest Redstarr1]

Proximity sensor still not working for me with 13/08 build. It does work for automatic brightness control (that uses the same sensor, right?). So I really think I'm just missing an option somewhere... Does it work for you yet crnadakm?

[Guest hugobosslives]

c3co. you sure there is not way to get that notification bar at the top? would love to have it up there :D

[Guest utternoob]

There is in JB. Try setting to hybrid mode. Later versions have the option for Phablet layout, not sure about 1.6

[Guest C3C0]

Maybe I will try to find some time to check if any of the useful JB functions could be backported to ICS version of PA.

[Guest C3C0]

I quickly played with the tablet status bar and for now I managed to move it to the top. But needs more work since its expanded view displays from the bottom.

This means it is not possible to expand the status bar by swiping downwards but swiping upwards or touching - it will expand from the bottom.

If you are interested I can post this initial mod.

[Guest hugobosslives]

yep sounds good. The tablet version is so much more piratical.

@ubbernoob. do you mean the full tablet status bar with the different notification system? i couldn't find that in other modes. and yes running latest pa on jb atm

[Guest favod]

how do i hide the soft keys i find them annoying especially when i am writing a message i fin i knock one instead of the space bar

[Guest C3C0]

Settings / System / Navigation bar

[Guest favod]

thank you soft keys sorted now have noticed though that my gallery isn't being populated with my pictures i even tried taking a picture and it was put in the same folder as my pictures but it didn't pick an of the others up

[Guest C3C0]

Tablet status bar on top mod

Issues left:

- opens by touching or swiping upwards instead of downwards

- "clear all notifications" button not showing

- show/hide animation from bottom to top instead of top to bottom

When I bought Skate I said it was ok phone for the money.

When I came to Modaco and saw all the ROMs I sad the phone was more than ok.

Now I say that it is just awesome because of all the people here like C3C0, tilal, tilaz, xmaste....... and all others.

Thanks a lot you are making this phone awesome!

Will try this latest mode, btw goo seems to be messed up againg, dl speed is 6 kbps ...

Edited August 16, 2012 by crnadakm

[Guest favod]

is there anyway of making the notification bar cover the whole of the top of the screen ?

[Guest crnadakm]

increase the density

[Guest crnadakm]

System UI DPI set on 170, best solution!

btw Prox Sens... doesn't work for me, never mind, this rom is so good that I refuse to care!

Try the following to fix proximity issues.

1) Flash this and test: http://tinyw.in/Mf19 if it doesn't work then

2) Flash this and test: http://tinyw.in/mW5V if it still doesn't work then

3) Flash this and test: http://tinyw.in/trLS if it doesn't work I give up...

[Guest Redstarr1]

The first update did the trick for me. I don't know how you did it but thanks a lot. That's the first time I had proximity sensor issues.

[Guest Redstarr1]

And this'll be my daily rom as well for the time being :-). Maybe when JB matures a bit I'll leave ICS. The thing I really need is tethering, 3d party or native, wifi or USB, doesn't matter.
