Hi all, I've been searching, reading and trying out how to get tablet ui for chrome, i tried app settings on xposed and to no avail.. I set it from 400-120 and still can't. Only method i get tablet ui is build.prop dpi set to 240. But problem here is, my notification bar isn't showing up. Any solutions and suggestions please?

app settings should work, anything below 290 I think will push it into tablet UI, set the DP as well to the max one

Install xposed
install app settings module
Install TabletMetrics module http://xdaforums.com/xposed/modules/module-tabletmetrics-report-screen-7-v1-t2596603
Install chrome


Activate xposed
Activate app settings module
Activate TabletMetrics module

reboot

Open app settings
Go to chrome
Chose:

DPI: 350
Screen (dp): 1000x 1600

save
force close chrome
start chrome

Now you should see the tabs as on a tablet device.

Running TabletMetrics module 2.1 (The app module shows no new updates) [originally used to get tablet UI for spotify client spoofing into tablet mode = free music]

App Settings and Chrome works just fine. I'm using Chrome Beta and App Settings. Sett the Dpi to 320 or lower and set the DP to 800x1280.

Done. It's the same thing with all other apps that have tablet UI.
