I did try that app but it does not work properly with multiple user profiles.

Just tried it, and on cleanroom 1.3, the nav bar vanished completely. No way to restore with without rebooting into safe mode and uninstalling it.

CM10.2 Kanged rom has this feature in there as well as lots of others like the AppBar/Ribbon support, Halo Notifications, Center Clock, transparent bars, Bar colors and tweaks, theme support, AOKP keyboard, etc.
I've been using it for a few days and feels great. I'm not sure if I supports tablet mode, but I'm trying to get used to the stock UI on a tablet.

If you have root, my app can hide/show navigation bar without reboot - GMD Auto Hide Soft Keys

I have already tried that app and it was already mentioned in this thread as well. The app is very buggy and does not work well with multiple user profiles. Start on boot does not work either. I had sent an email through Play Store but never received any acknowledgement.

You can edit the DPI following these instuctions.

:silly: I replied in wrong thread. Anyway I just got NN7 and I'm testing it. I will check multiple accounts problem, but I cannot reproduce autostart on boot problem on any of my devices including NN7. On topic: PA rom allows to change navigation bar size or you can change device dpi as already suggested.

No worries. I think someone else said that set-on-boot does not work either. It could be related to multiple-user issue with my device.

[ZOOPER][CUSTOMIZATION] tb01110100's Zooperlicious Widgets

Hey, all.
I've only been messing around with zooper for a week or so, and it is still absolutely phenonemal. I love it. Here, I will share some widgets that I've created in my own free time. Check back here every once in a while, I may add new ones.

Make sure to install Media Utilities (free in the play store) and open it.
Go to settings and check the boxes for enabling Zooper and making
coverart available. I used WidgetLauncher for my lock screen, but I
suppose you could use this for your home screen if you want to.

Sweet, question, is it possible to replace the crosshair in the 'where am i'-thingy with a picture or shape, so that I could use a pin like in G-maps f.e.?

I don't know exactly how to to do it, but you might be able to get it to work by removing the 2 progress bars that form the crosshairs, then adding in a bitmap of your choice, and meddling with the x/y offsets in advanced parameters to have its position based on #LLAT# and #LLONG#. Hope this helps.
Thomas

Thnx for the great work! Love the widgets you made!

What launcher do you use?
And what is the grid size?

I alternate between nova and action launcher. I think the sweet spot for grid size on the nexus 10 is 7x9.

also would like to see some way to edit from epd screen ...so you could use it for notes (think that would be better than stock app) a lot simpler and clean
thanks

Thanks!
Images as background or instead of text is possible and maybe I add this feature. An option to automatically move/rotate/scroll the text or change it every x seconds/minutes/etc. would be great and I already thought about that, but I have not found out yet how to refresh the EPD from within a widget (and that is needed to prevent ghosting) - the documentation of YotaPhone SDK is a bit..uhm.. simple.
One of the points on my to-do list is to add Tasker support so you can display any text you want (time, date, battery, current wifi etc.).
I don't think YotaTextCover is ideal for note taking, but you can try "Notes" widget from Yota Devices (search for it in YotaHub).

I was waiting for something like this thanks a lot. I was thinking, if you update it to add the ability to change font and size and allow longer text.
Sent from my YD201 using Tapatalk

If the widgets can be set to run Tasker tasks when pressed as well it would be perfect

YotaTextCover is now open source: https://github.com/munterkofler/YotaTextCover
Feedback is welcome!

It would be great if one could add a number of texts which then change from time to time. So exactly the same as this app provides, but one would write different texts and the app would cycle through these texts and change it regularely.

Hi...
I have YD206 running Kitkat and Google Play says this is incompatible.
Does it requires Lollipop?
Or, can I have direct download link to the APK?

Is the notification are displayed on your widget ?

Hi IceDealer86, did you try to add it on YotaStore ?

Running MM and says it isnt compatibile with the device? 6.0.1 not supported?

Add app to game optimizer

Hello, recently just updated my v20 to oreo and it got game optimizer which I've been eagerly waiting for. Unfortunately it won't detect my game as it should've as it is an unofficial app name (i used apk editor and change the package name in order to have 2 id on 1 device)
Is there any way to add this onto the list manually? My phone is currently not rooted, but if root can solve this issue, I will happily go through with it since my warranty is already expired.
if anyone know how to get it detected through editing manifest file is also appreciated, thanks in advance

Thats just a gimmick, its a useless feature, i have a couple of games on it and i can change graphics, take a screenshot and the break time which is the only thing useful

You can use SQLite Editor to add custom apps into com.lge.gametuner.

It is not a gimmick and can be useful for some games that renders the game at native screen resolution which the graphics settings can forcefully set to 720p or 1080p.

That's the reason I need that feature lol
My game always render app at my native resolution and it lags after 10 minutes or so gameplay due to the heat it generates
Some of my games are smoother ever since I set them to 720p, that's why I need it to be able to add other application as well, especially some games/apps that I sideload since all of them are not detected
