Hello.
I am running the 1.1bl GtabComb 1.6 rom and am very happy with it.
One thing that excited me was being able to change LCD density to 161 and have a Gingerbread interface!
I have noticed that on the rom I am running, when switched to Ginger-mode some things work better and some things fail.
A noticeable change right away was the home launcher (obviously), but also the default web browser was 2.3 style. There was also a phone tab on the stock Ginger home, though that failed too
I will do more testing when I get home and post some actual differences between the two interfaces, as well as any similarities.
I would be interested to hear about any experiences others may have had playing with these different interfaces in the same rom.
Thanks!

Hey guys,
I recently installed the Bionix-V FishmanMod 1.3.1 version and am having some issues with the Notification pulldown option. When I pull down the top bar to show the notifications, there is a lag, and it is VERY choppy as it opens. However, closing the notifications is relatively smooth. I tried turning off the animations in the Display menu, but that did not change anything.
Anyone else experiencing this?
Fixed
I installed the latest update -FISHMANMOD and the BlueMyst Theme and now everything is SMOOOOTTTHHH as butter. I love this.
Also installed the ICS fonts, and it's amazing how something that simple changes the whole UI feel.
The Bionix developers and Fishman are awesome.
that's good, I didnt have that issue and im testing it with the stock theme from the rom, you might wanna update your post title and write (fixed) at the end of it
Sorry to hijack your thread here but I'm running V1.3.1 with the ICS theme and i find it running really well, is this fishmanmod that much better than stock 131 to make it worth the hassle of resetting everything on my phone? Perhaps i should ask in that thread as well. Thanks

I personally think it is, much more stable if anything, and the slight speed increased helps too, bionix is already a great rom but fishman just makes it even better and more stable, havent had a force close yet and battery life is great
My notification pull-down is choppy sometimes (not a lot), but I don't think it's the rom as much as it is the crap running on my phone. It's nothing that worries me.
Hi all
I'm not sure if its just me, but the type of vibration I feel from pressing a key on the Samsung IME keyboard is very snappy and realistic and "buttony"; whereas if you use a non-stock keyboard, it just feels like a blunt thud.
I've tried to mess around with the timing on the other keyboards but it just doesnt feel the same. I've looked all around to see if anyone has recreated this effect but to no avail.
I just wanted to know if anyone has pin-pointed what makes the default keyboard just "click"; and if so- be able to make this a customisable feature whether part of a kernel or anything like that.
I am using MIUI official 2.12.29 with Siyah Kernel v5.0.1 if it helps
Thank you in advance.
i used the cf auto root and NH7 so still 4.4.4
im looking for some suggestions from the experienced users of either app or themes based on my needs.
im vision impaired and deaf so sound is whatever but vibrations are great if customized. as for vision, i work best with the dark themes. mainly like everything is a black nackground with light colored text. even google chrome. i can do it on my pc but not phone and i did try firefox but altho it worked, not very stable to use. i do tend to lean towards go launcher bc of editing how i like and still simple icons. nothing fancy or whatnot. but another app would be like a note pad where background is black, font is white but you can change the size of the font. ive tried blackbook app but its perfect if i could just change the font size. can anyone suggest any dark themes or apps that could benefit me? im not to ready to update to lollipop yet but if its the only way to get certain things i need, i will but for now i would like to try to stick with android 4.4.4. thank you in advance to any help and advice!

Hi , have you tried to change your font size ? Go to settings/device/font/font size and you can change your font size. Or you can change style also while your there 5 fonts that come with the device. Or you can go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2752379 download and install this APK and you have 500 different fonts to choose from.
(I accidentally hit Q&A instead of regular post)
I am on the hunt for a new keyboard but have a few requirements.
I am currently using Jelly Bean Keyboard but it's showing its age and not playing well on Lollipop and the Dev appears to have abandoned it.
I like the long press on the letters for frequently used characters. I like that it has emojis as well as emoticon (standard text messaging symbol smileys). I like the swype. It is basically, actually exactly the CyanogenMod/AOSP Keyboard and would like something similar. All the keys are in convienient spots unlike other keyboards with long press. Importantly also it has a dedicated number row at the top.
I tried porting the CM keyboard by extracting the APK and latinime but it always either crashed or swipe didn't work.
Before you answer, Google Keyboard ≠ AOSP Keyboard.
