Blah :

You might feel that this is just like those other CyanogenMod kangs, but no, it isn't
It has it's own unique features, and all code from CyanogenMod is regularly merged.
It isn't intended to replace CyanogenMod tbh, but to provide a better CyanogenMod-based ROM for tablets.

Support us :

If you know how to code, and would like to implement something, fork a repo, do it, and send a pull request
Big thanks to goo for hosting, xda for the buildserver, and slimdizzy.

I can vouch for this Used the SGT7 builds of CM9 on my.. SGT7 and it offered some pretty cool tablet features

http://goo.gl/9mmh8 - untested as of now

Testers : do report back

should work hopefully, if it works pm me or post some screenshots, and if it doesn't, pm me a logcat (http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Logcat)

P.S. Do a nandroid (aka a backup via cwm), wipe data, and flash it.

Thanks.downloading now and once my battery is to an acceptable level will update,excited to check it out,in particular tablet ui with the stock dpi should be great

 

[hyperdude111]

Just posting to say tested and so far everything works. If you like I can post a screenshot later. No FC's and it seems to be smooth.

Only one thing - The tablet mode seems to be only a tablet panel and not full tablet UI (Launcher & Settings still like phablet).

 

[FiveOhFour]

Is it just me that isnt getting a match on the md5 of the file and the one in the link?

Same here, not getting the dual pane settings menu that would be in "full" tablet mode, that is what alot of us are looking for. Aside from that the rom works great. Everything seems to be in good working order.

I insalled it and the tablet UI is not enabled. Is there a setting somewhere to enable it?

Just you

Ok, forgive me its quite possibe my noobness is betraying me here but at the initial link ( http://sgt7.tk/ ) there are two files, the .zip and the md5 sum file and when comparing the two they are not the same, am i flawed in the way im carrying out the verification? completely aside from that where is the toggle that you mention, i know i need sleep badly but im not seeing any option to toggle the UI on the fly its very smooth and similar to CM9 but its still 100 percent phablet UI . Thanks for the help

UPDATE: OK I SEE THE TABLET UI TOGGLE, it is in the status bar area of the system menu

Settings/statusbar then tick tablet mode.

Probably, as i check the md5 locally, on the server, and when i mirrored it to goo, it generated the same md5, and the rom did install, so the md5 is indeed correct.
