Could be part of the Rom because the icons seem larger than they should be.. But that just makes them easier to press.

How do I get the apps to take up more rows and look proper? It's like 3x4 in there right now.

what is DC? downloadable content? the apps cache as in wipe cache in cwm or i am i dumb/ignoranus?

typo DC = FC /.


what FC ? I dotn have any :p

SMEMO is fixed inthe last update ( was reuploaded around 1 or 2 am yesterday)

if you guys flash this on top of another rom , please think twice before reporting here , my Alpha2 is multi-dpi it does fix many issues ..

Im using an app called BIG fonts (free market apps ) it does what it says and it makes my phone perfect with this tablet mode !

AFAIK here is list of bugs :

_Connection icons dont get colored when connected to google servers .
_Cant change lockscreen wallpaper

I flashed it over my alpha 2 install running apex and all of my stuff was tiny and centered. Did you change any display settings?

7x7 grid for both portrait and landscape. Looks and runs fine.

Here's a screenshot of Apex 7x7:

Also, under apex settings set horizontal and vertical margin to none.

    Tips

    • You can Use Google Gallery to play Videos (its the aosp video player)
    • IF YOU ARE EXPERIENCING ANY (SUDDEN) PROBLEMS WITH ANY APPS
      THAT FC or misbehave like market does sometimes... DO THE FOLLOWING:
      Open settings go to applications/all clear the application 's data and its provider 's or googleframeworksomething* then REBOOT
    • On Rogers getting poor LTE speed ?
      Open Dialer : Type *#2263# and Select "[4] LTE Band Preference" then "[7] LTE ALL". hit home button not back , return and set it to automatic . test speeds . please note you can NOT access this using the AOSP dialer
    • Wanan remove the minipanel (arrow in the status bar )

      Basically it just involves deleting these:

      Any apps in System/app that has "Mini" in its name (Including minimode-res.apk).

      Next remove System/framework/minimode.jar

      Now the miniapps should be completely removed from your system after a reboot including the program that opens them and the arrow on the system bar. If you would like them back just reflash your current ROM or restore the backup THAT YOU ARE GOING TO MAKE!


    Known Issues

    The Hybrid 's goal is :

    To be like TW ICS should have been on our note , meaning its full phone mode stability and all the nice features we are use to in previous Gingerberead rom, this means you can run the phoen in normal mode , all the stuff you are use to will be there while unleashing the full potential of it's half tablet look , let's face it the NOTE is big enough to be used as a tablet . hence this rom' s name , ' The Hybrid ' .

    • The Picture in the op is click-able link , this will always be the full standalone version , it will NOT wipe your phone
    • Since XDA-app / Tapatalk users cant click links in picture s the same link is duplicated where it says ==> THE HYBRID <== . this will always be the latest full base .
    • For users already running previous versions of the hybrid there is a 'non wipe link right under the picture . this is only if you were running the previous Version of the Hybrid and is genreally just an update l of course if there s no update then no link will be there




    APP per dpi explained
    1. With the new mod you need to change the dpi you wanna use in the build prop but you also need to match it for the keyboards and others inside hyb.prop otherwise it will not work well, just look at the zip attached in the OP and you will see how I did it .
    2. To add more apps to have there own customized dpi :
    3. take the facebook application.. its name inside of data/app folder would be facebook.katana-1.apk
    4. so in order to have it run its own custom dpi you would type
    5. pa.com.facebook.katana.dd=260
    6. 260 = the dpi you want it to use .
    7. No reboot needed just force close the application and voila (via applications menu)
    8. Play with it and try to make it work and post your pad.prop and results .[/B]
    9. additional info thx to rsalib :

      Here are some Hybrid instructions with the new pad.prop:

      I have found it easier to run tablet UI and push apps to higher than 213 to make them look like normal phone apps and keep whatever works tablet mode untouched. You also have the option to use Phone UI and force apps the apps that have a tablet UI into DPI 213 and under.

      The build.prop and pad.prop work as a team.

      The line in build.prop:
      # for 480x800 panel
      ro.sf.lcd_density=

      decides if your phone is going to be base tablet or base phone.
      -if you put 213 or lower it will be base tablet with the fancy buttons at the bottom of the screen and the pop notification from the lower right.
      -if you put 214 or higher it will be base phone with the normal phone look

      if you want tablet UI with forcing phone into apps that do not have a tablet UI or look weird in tablet:(how i do it)
      build.prop line should be 213
      pad.prop:
      pa.system_default_dpi=213
      pa.user_default_dpi=(whatever you want, just remember the bigger you go, the harder it is to see text on tablet UI apps)

      If you want Phone UI with forcing apps with tablet UI into tablet mode
      build.prop line should be 214 or higher
      pad.prop:
      pa.system_default_dpi=213(this make the status bar and fonts really small)
      pa.user_default_dpi=(again, whatever you want, but the bigger you go the harder it is to see text in tablet UI apps)
      AND AND AND AND AND
      you have to put the apps that have tablet UI into /system/app folder

    • Aosp kit AOSP app replacement like its name says .....
    • Stock TW revert : (to revert from the aosp app kit )

    How to install

    • Important INFO

      0_ Rom is NON wipe, you dont have to wipe anymore, you can do a manual wipe if you want , if you do so, some apps will be auto-installed at first boot . if you encounter any problems WIPE FIRST ask questions LATER.
      1_ If you have apps already installed to your sdcard (and you dont want to wipe manually) move them to internal before flashing the rom
      2_flash base rom it WILL auto reboot .
      3_Rom boots in Phone UI mode the first time .
      4_you can reboot to recovery (using power menu) to enable tablet mode or flash the addons you 'd like
      5_ When you restore (using titanium backup) go in preference and make sure to tell titanium back up to restore to internal sdcard ONLY
      6_3_ DO NOT INSTALL APPS TO EXTERNAL SDCARD ===> this is a bug with the early app per dpi mod (the en we are using). if you do you will regret it , and watch out Google play Store installs some applications to the Ext Sdcard by default .., the best thing to do to avoid that is unmount your sdcard before installing new apps , also changing the default install location (of market) via Rom Toolbox might help .
    • Good to go !!!!
