[ROM] RCMP Toro | 20120712 | Salad bar | CM9 based

---

Posting this on behalf of rob43 since I'll be compiling the Toro builds for him. His original thread can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1729942


This ROM is based on CM9 with rob43's status bar implementation called "Salad Bar". Nothing else will be added or changed outside of Rob's changes. Anytime he posts an update, I'll compile a new build and update it here. All credit due to Rob43 for his changes and of course the CM team for the rest.

So what's salad bar? It's essentially a combined status and navigation bar. Navigation bar buttons follow the stock layout (left is back, center is home, right is recent apps). To expand the notification tray...hold and swipe up. Salad bar can be toggled off and on from Settings.




The below is from rob's original thread:

FEATURES

- CyanogenMod 9 base
- Bottom statusbar
- Brightness toast panel
- Gradient background fix
- Settings: GPS toggle & status info
- All-In-One Salad Bar (combined navigation & statusbar)
* swipe up to expand
* customizable power widget
* same button layout as stock navigation bar
* key button popup effect
- Jellybean framework drawables
- Few of my other patches
- Gestures/Long press/Press customization for all bar buttons are now added http://i.imgur.com/FkmO5.png
- Bar buttons default to: previous track when swiping left, next track when swiping right, search when long pressing recents (everything else is as the previous default)
- JB styling


KNOWN BUGS
-All-In-One Salad Bar: Navigation mode must be toggled if you switch off the salad bar for the regular nav bar to display
-All-In-One Salad Bar: Reboot necessary after toggling salad bar else screen margins might be buggy upon rotation

The nav bar is combined with the status bar. I updated the OP with a little more clarification.

Found a few weird things....Love the idea btw.

I believe the issue in your second shot (with the contextual menu) is known already. I don't remember if it's something that was intended by rob or if he's going to fix it in the next build. I guess we'll see!

I've seen the bug in the first one but orienting the screen around or performing a reboot makes it go away. Not exactly sure what's causing it.

I've also noticed that this ROM is continually turning my Bluetooth on. Such a weird bug, lol.

Edit.

Wow I'm really diggin this idea may have to flash this and give it a run!

I've seen that bluetooth issue as well. It seems rather random.

Anyways rob has incoming changes for the next build in the next couple of days. I'll be posting a new Toro build shortly after.

Some awesome new features:

- Gestures left/right for each button
- Jellybeaniness - See*http://imgur.com/2wN1Q
- adjustable height

Interesting stuff, I'm gonna keep my eye on this one. I'll at the very least wait until the next build and see if some of the bugs mentioned were fixed.
