First basic Cornerstone build based on cm10.1 nightlies. I have always wanted to have multiple windows on screen. Floating windows annoyed me because I always had to move them around.

Based on latest cm nightly, therefore you need to be on the latest bootloader!

Issues (a lot of things not tested):

- layouts in cornerstone panel are not perfect
- bottom window doesnt have a working layout
- lockscreen ?!?

What works so far:
- audio
- wifi
- wallpaper (you need to set it via settings -> display - > background, lockscreen wallpaper via settings -> lockscreen -> background)

Install instructions:

1. reboot into TWRP
2. do a complete system backup
2. if you werent running a cm10.1 build, do a complete wipe: system,data,cache, etc.
3. install bryce09 conerstone rom
4. if you were running a cm10.1 build you dont need to flash Gapps: 20130301
5. reboot

Download:

Download Cornerstone

FAQ:

Launcher layout to big for screen
Just force kill it!

Now this is very exciting. Where can I download to test?

Uploaded it. Hopefully the link works :p
I will be trying this out later and let you know how it goes. Is there any chance you'd be able to make a CROMI-X compatible build in the future? I really very much appreciate this and hope you continue to work on it. The lack of ability to open multiple apps and run them side by side has been the single biggest thing I hate about android.

So what this does run apps side by side? you should post pics =D
You could check out videos on youtube: cornerstone android
Or post a screenshot yourself ;)


Sorry I dont use CROMI myself and probably wont in the future. I like cyanogenmod too much. I also dont have enough harddisk space left to build another android version :p

I'm still locked awaiting the end of my warranty. I wasn't tempted to forego the last few months of warranty until today. Evil OP! Evil! :silly:

Really exciting though. I discovered cornerstone months ago, skipped for joy, then upon further inspection, it appeared to be abandoned. Thrilled to see some activity, and infinity development to boot. Good Luck, I'll be following what happens very closely. :good:

Love that this is getting worked on, huge props. Would be great to see if you could work with sdbags and get it working with CROMI.

Lord must be really hearing me, few days ago I was thinking if it's possible to have a multi-windows mod on TF700 like on my SGS3, now here it is!

Tried this - still pretty primitive at present, but I like the direction. Good work! Maybe some instructions on how best to use in the OP - because my experience was nothing like as controlled or fluid as the Youtube video suggested.

WiFi works just flash my kernel :p
I am working hard to fix the layout issues.
But I think the only possible solution for me is to add support for original tablet mode

Love it!! Used to run a Cornerstone ROM on my old ViewSonic gTablet, and was disappointed in the lack of movement on this on the new builds. I still subscribe to the Cornerstone forum over on google so when I saw traffic picking up I was hopeful it would be coming.

as always, you devs ROCK!!

I love the idea of cornerstone.
I speak French, so I can help you with translation.

Reading the progress seems extremely exciting.

No idea why google haven't put more money into R&D for their own version.

Could potentially be in Key lime Pie?

Would give android a real dominance over W8 Tabs (even more so)
