maybe i'm wrong but to run the standard android gui u can boot in safe mode?

yeah go into your timescape setting and uncheck it from being the homescreen

you are on a standard android home screen when you first start the x10.
there is very little customization.
remove the TS&MS icons and choose another wallpaper - the tiny lines on top and bottom will be the only difference to a milestone homescreen.
(except the blue backgrounds in the menus)

Resize Notification Drawer in Paranoid Android 2.14?

I installed Paranoid Android 2.14 on my Nexus 7 and love it.
The only think I am not happy with is the tiny size of the Notification Drawer when in Workspace,Tablet UI(Small).
I like the small dock, as it takes the least amount of screen on the bottom, but, as a result, the Notification Drawer is way to small and hard to read.
IS THERE ANY WAY TO RESIZE THE Notification Drawer to make it larger and easier to read?
Another question. in System, I can select Auto hide.
Yet it does not seem to work.
Is there any way to hide the dock and recall it when needed?
How would I recall it?
And lastly, in System/Navigation Bar, there is an option to show/hide on screen software buttons.
I would love to uncheck them so they disappear and do not take up the limited screen real estate.
HOW DO I ACCESS / RECALL THESE SOFT BUTTONS WHEN I NEED THEM?
Thanks very much for your help. Much appreciated

The notification drawer is part of the workspace. I believe you can change it's size by switching from tablet UI (small) to tablet UI (mid) under paranoid settings.
I don't think there is a way to have a dock and still have your launcher be sized for tablet mode. You might get that feature from another launcher like Apex or Nova.
You can get rid of the soft buttons and recall them in any app with expanded desktop mode. You can access expanded desktop mode by holding the power button for about 1 second, then select expanded desktop mode. To get the soft buttons back just select expanded desktop mode again.

kodiak, how did u deodex it?

You don't need to deodex. Grab the 4.2.1-TabletUI.zip from the following link (Post 912) and apply in recovery. Laucher is messed up but Nova Launcher free works great.

you could also install paranoid android, where you can choose which layout (phone, phablet, tablet...) you wish to use, you can even set layouts for individual apps or app groups (e.g. Launcher + google mail in tablet mode, other apps stay phablet)

I am currently running paranoid androids latet rom, and the main thing I'm struggling with is that the 3 buttons (back, home, and the 3rd button that brings up recent apps) are centered, when I want them on the let side. Does the patch fix that?
Also, is there a way to remove the lock screen tiles? I think I saw other threads saying that this change was related to the lawsuit but didn't find anything that allows you to take those off. At the very least I'd want to change the font if I have to keep it.
Any guidance would be appreciated.

Yes the tablet patch takes the 2 seperate nav bar and task bar and puts them to the bottom like they should be imho.
I dont even run the lock screen so I cant answer that question.

In Paranoid settings, change the UI to Tablet UI (mid) and you'll have the navigation bar buttons to the left hand side like you want.
Also, the way to get rid of the lockscreen tiles is to install Lockscreen Policy.

Looking for rom

I'm looking for a rom that has a status bar at the top while pie control is active. Something like what's in the photo.
I've tried PA maybe I couldn't find the option.

Carbon, aokp, liquid.
But I'm fairly sure PA has it too.

You have to go to "Hybrid properties" swipe your finger to the right and click on interface. You will see two options, choosing the Nav. Bar option drag the blue bar all the way down to zero hit apply and enable pie.

CM 10.1 can do that.

I use CM 10.1, nova launcher, and I can have that.
Active extended desktop with CM 10.1 options (then active it with a long press on power button). Then, in Nova, make an action for double tap (or any gesture you like) that hide or show status bar.
And it rocks. You can have only navbar, only statusbar, or both, your call, very quickly.
(sorry for my bad English, feel free to help me ^^ )

ROM features for stock

I'm on stock and want to stay that way. Does anyone know of any apps that would extend my phone like a custom ROM, for example an app to customize quick settings or similar or an app that has power menu options etc, or something like ribbon by aokp....

Power Toggles has what you need for the quick settings/power menu options. Usable as both a desktop or a notification widget.
