i rebooted to recovery and flashed alpha 2 mod and tablet enable 213 and fixd permissions.. and it works .. i got the alpha 3 mod from the old log as he mentiones .. still runnin seraphim

If you flashed Alpha 2, you're no longer running Seraphim. Alpha 2 is a complete ROM. Or are you talking about TABLET_UI_AOSP_A2.zip? That's just the Tablet Mod enabling patch. Alpha 2 is ICS_CLC5_Alpha2.zip, which is a complete ROM. Alpha 3 is a Mod patch designed to go over Alpha 2.

Did you also flash Alpha 3 (AOKP_ICS_Tweaks_ALPHA_3.zip)? If so, I would try this again without that, as it wasn't designed to run on anything other than Alpha 2, and even then it has known FC's.

Is anyone here running a clock/weather widget? I've tried several but non of them look right...all way too small. I've tried to resize it but its still real small.

1. Did the nandroid this morning. Copy on ext card and pc

2. "Flash the zip" is the same as "install from zip", correct?

3. Nova is already on.

4. Tweak as I go, Okay...

5. Thanks and/or donate readied :)

Thanks for u 2!

Yes, "flash the zip" is the same as "install zip from sdcard." Sorry about that. Get familiar with that terminology. You'll hear it a lot around here.

If you want some tips on keeping track of nandroid backups, you can refer to my post here.

I had this same issue. I really don't know what I did to fix it. I initially disabled the one that came with this mod through settings, app, messaging. Tried to use gosms but hated it. Figured I'd deal with double texts. Unfroze messaging through TB and its working fine so far normally. Again, I don't know what fixed it. You might want to try that.

Oh, after unfreezing, try rebooting.

First, make sure you have a nandroid backup, in case the mod is not compatible with your rom.

Then, all you have to do is download and flash the zip in cwm. no wipe necessary (if that doesn't change with the update).

As far as tweaks, you probably want to use Nova launcher, since apex doesn't seem to get along with this mod yet. Anything else is just personal preference. Be sure to check out all your apps to see them in all their tablet UI glory.

Finally, once you see how awesome it is, go and thank the dev for allowing you to enjoy the fruits of their labor...

Did all the things as directed but now there is no dialer, no contacts or calendar. Please look at my OP to see what/how I was installed before trying to update. BTW I flashed the A2 and the enabler the second time and still the same things. Many many FC's also.

Any ideas?

are you having any issues?

Had to flash a custom notification bar after the enabler, besides that, none that aren't known about i.e. contact deletion, panorama on ICS camera, deleting pictures from Samsung camera, stock browser. Anything else can usually be fixed by fixing permissions and when that doesn't work if it can be downloaded, erase and download. Maybe try a different ROM? I hear it works fine on seraphim, I'm on noteworthy, and it runs beautifully.
My wife has a skyrocket, and when I run into things like system not mounting rw, I back everything up, make a nandroid, and start over. If you can't get it running as you'd like it, change it. Development is slowly starting to gear up in this forum, and you're able to try more and more until you find one that works best for you, with the things you want working and bring able to accept the things that don't run so smoothly (my messaging force closes every time I turn on my phone, but that's it). A little drawn out but that's my piece, take it out leave it:)

    I know he made the Mod for his Alpha ICS Rom, BUT it seems to work on most ICS builds so i am making its own Q&A thread so we can stay out of Noteworthy/Seraphim/Dags thread with questions strictly about this Mod.

    so this will be for GENERAL QUESTIONS on this Mod from member to member.....what dpi are you running, are you having issues on a certain Rom, things you would like to tell others about your experiance with this Mod running on your phone.


    Have at it Yall!!!!!

    on my part i love the Mod, im on seraphim and have had NO ISSUES :D

    Fixing Contacts Force Close

    A lot of posts about problems with People or Phone force closing every time they try opening them. I had the same issue and this cleared it up for me.
    Goto:
    Settings>Applications>All> scroll down to logsprovider and select it. Select Clear Data from the next screen, then reboot your phone.

    Worked for me, but I can't post this in the big boy forum due to post count. Credit DAGr8 for the solution in the dev thread post #3133. Anyways, hope this helps someone.

    On the link below on the second picture from the top you can see how they clustered 4 small icons together. Is that a third party application or is it something that can be enabled on tablet mode somewhere?

    Nexus: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1543892

    This can be enabled in the launcher settings. For Apex go to folder settings -> Folder Preview, change to Grid -> then remove the folder background.

    Here is my current setup.

    can you switch back to phone mode after flashing the tablet MOD?
