Nexus 7 (2013) Running latest lollipop
I keep tablet in car essentially permanently. Landscape mode. I decided I wanted to optimize the setup to mimic a modern car system. Tablet through Bluetooth in car and tethered to my phone (still have my Verizon unlimited data
).
I use mighty text to sync texts from phone. I don't bother trying to take calls on tablet.
I'm using apex or nova and customizing home screen primarily by enlarging icons and removed dock altogether.
I'm 80% there. My last step is what I'm struggling with. I want multiwindow. Ideally divided similar to some cars... Where you might have navigation on large screen and tell smaller screens with text and music, for example. Floating, resizable windows would be best.
I've read and watched tutorials using xposed and modules like xmultiwindow, xhalo, and others. I have xposed installed but I can't get modules to work correctly. I imagine this is due to the alpha nature of xposed with lollipop. I really like the idea of floating windows. If there was a recent version of omnirom or paranoid I'd gladly use it, but I can't find anything newer than 4.4.4.
So, hoping for suggestions. If I was a developer id make an optimized ROM to suit these needs and share. Call it autoROM or something!
Thanks as always!
