Hey guys,
Does anyone know how to change Pixel Density on the SGS2?
I'm running Cognition 1.05 on my SGS2...
With such a large beautiful screen, changin the Pixel Density will make more stuff fit in

Using 200 dpi is just great! You can test it with LcdDensity and set it for good if you have root with Nitrality. As launcher you can use Launcher Pro (Free or not) and set it for 5 columns and 6 rows. For a clock you can use Fancy Widgets...scales well and working great.
Good luck.
This looks great using Launcher pro and 200 dpi.
But I have some issues with my dialpad. possible to fix?
EDIT:
Got it working.
What I did:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14650421&postcount=38 <-- Downloaded Contacts.apk
Backup of system/app/contacts.apk, and then replaced it using the downloaded one.
Rebooted into CWM and cleared cache.
Reboot and it should work.

Android 1.6 doesn't support live wallpapers at all.
I tried to add livewallapper and menu does pops up with selection, but no livewallpaper's load as the Tattoo has no EGL support for it.
for me it works in your rom there even is starfield included i flashed you rom and the the zip and had an live wallpaper in sense so why not?
Thanks!
Works fine for me running TatFroyoSense0.4. Also the wallpapers from the market seems to be running fine.

I wonder why it kept complaining here on EGL not supported when running.. probably i took Livewallpapers from the wrong release..
This mod makes the buttonlight not working (LED-mod from the tatfroyo might solve this)

Tablet Mode for Galaxy Player 5 ICS ROMs - Supermaster34
I consider the galaxy player to be a sort of mini tablet, but so far most of the available roms use a Phone UI. The Phone UI is great, but the user experience can be enhanced with the addition of Tablet Mode. I know tablet mode has been applied to the Player 5 before, but on an old and buggy rom, so I decided to fiddle with a few bits and bobs and I managed to activate Tablet Mode. One of the best things about my MOD is the ability to apply the patch to any ICS rom. There may be a few UI bugs, but everything works as it should
Features:
Tablet Apps can be used
The Status Bar and Navigation Bar combine to form the Combined Bar
Landscape Lockscreen
Full Album Art displayed on Lockscreen
Apex launcher runs very smoothly in tablet mode
Can be applied to any ICS rom (I think)
Installation Instructions
RemICS-UX v1.3.1+:
Install the latest version of RemICS-UX if you don't already have it installed
Flash the RemICS-UX tablet mode zip file in recovery. No need to wipe anything, just flash it
Boot into the rom and download LCD Density Modder (or similar) and set the DPI to 128 or lower, but not below 120, and reboot
Read my Tips for Tablet Mode here
CM9:
Flash a CM9 rom if you do not already have one installed
Boot into recovery and flash the CM9 mod
Boot into the ROM and use LCD Density Changer (or similar) and set the DPI to 128 or below, but not lower than 120 and reboot
Read my Tips for Tablet Mode here
AOKP:
Flash an AOKP rom if you aren't already running one and boot into it.
Go to Settings > ROM Control > Navigation Bar and enable the nav bar.
Reboot into recovery and flash the AOKP mod
Boot into the ROM and go to Settings > ROM Control > General UI > LCD Density and follow the steps.
In step 5, scroll to the bottom on the list and select custom and set the DPI to 128 or less, but not less than 120
Reboot
Read my Tips for Tablet Mode here
Tablet mode can be entered by changing the DPI of the device to 128 or less, but putting it below 120 causes bootloops. I am still testing my mod, but it appears to work on any ICS rom for the player 5. All you have to do is flash the zip file in recovery over the rom you want to apply it to. No wipes required and setting the DPI above 128 returns the player to Phone UI
Tested to work on:
RemICS-UX v1.3.1 (Maybe v1.3.0) - Use the RemICS-UX version of the mod
Latest CM9 rom by me - Use the CM9 version of the mod
ICS Crumble v1.6 - Use the AOKP version of the mod
Untested but should work on:
Any CM9 based rom
Any AOKP based rom
Downloads
Mod for RemICS-UX. Click on Tabletmode DL on the right
Mod for CM9 roms
Mod for AOKP roms
Screenshots can be seen below

Which rom? RemICS-UX or CM9? I tried it just now on RemICS-UX v1.3.1 and it worked. Try turning off HD video or wiping cache and dalvik cache in recovery
the tablet patch doesn't work for remi ics v1.3.1 but it gives a nice theme style to apex launcher : )

It does work for RemICS-UX v1.3.1 but the touchwiz launcher doesn't work so I included apex launcher. Everything else works fine.
The MOD doesn't work perfectly with AOKP roms so I'm currently optimising the MOD for AOKP. Currently the MOD only works perfectly with RemICS-UX because I've modified some files in its system, but once I remake the MOD for stock CM9 and stock AOKP it should work on every rom

it does work yeah but you first need to put the dpi to 128 and have apex as standard launcher.

You can set the DPI to anything between 120 and 128 inclusive. You can also use any launcher which can handle tablet mode. Currently I think Apex handles it the best so that's why I included it in the mod
I have a problem... and i'm pretty sure it happened when I installed this tablet mode...
When i go to settings> apps... it causes a reboot..

OK for a short term fix you should move all of your apps on your SD card to the internal storage using titanium backup.
Which ROM did you apply the mod to?
Also are you sure it was caused by this mod? If it was I'll be able to fix it soon

Yeeeeeeeaaaaaah! I didn't even know until you pointed it out to me . Thanks for the tip! I'm planning to see how I can create a unified mod using Aroma installer so you can have one file which you can use to enable tablet mode on the different ICS roms. I'm also trying to fix the string misalignment on some roms. I can't give you an eta on any updates, but I'll try to be as quick as possible. The galaxy player 5 cannot afford to lose any more devs..
Also, first post on the XDA portal about the SGP
Congrats on the portal article, i believe this is the first time for the player.

Yeah, awesome job on making the front page! Now to get our 4.0 ICS thread there...now THAT would be nice .
I've got a Fascinate, but I bought it exclusively to use as a PMP, but I hate all of the phone features it still has. Anyone foresee massive problems arising by using this patch on the original Galaxy S, to effectively convert it to being a Galaxy Player?

Hello everyone,
I'm having problems installing the Slim ROM. I have an SGS2 I9100.
First let me tell you what I did.
I've had my phone rooted with CWM for awhile, but have been running a Stock samsung ROM on ICS. Wanting to upgrade, I found slim and downloaded the i9100_4.2.zip file. Then I went downloaded Slim_Gapps. I flashed first the ROM than Slim_Gapps and everything went fine. Except I had no keyboard at all when the ROM loaded up. I managed to log into the google play store, by texting my username/PW to myself and copy pasting them to log into google. However, I was getting a server error in the play store. I tried clearing data from the store and all that but no luck.
I figured I must have the wrong software or messed something up. So I went back to and downloaded Slim-GT-I9100-2.8.0-OFFICIAL from the slim site again along with the md5sum fix. I rebooted to recovery, wiped cache, dalvik cache then just flashed, however, now my phone just hangs up on "Opening update package..." I flashed Siyah-s2-v5.0b2.tar from using ODIN, but the problem persist. When I tried to reflash using the i9100_4.2 I get the same problem. After freezing on "Opening update package..." for awhile, the phone reboots into CWM. I simply don't understand what the problem is.
That's everything I've done. What I want is to get my phone up-to-date with the Slim ROM and 4.1 Jellybean (If that's possible?)
Any help is greatly appreciated. I've been trying to solve this problem for hours and have become incredible frustrated.
P.S. I tried posting exact links to where I got all my files from but apparently that's not allowed.
Ok, after trying to install SlimBean 2.8 again it worked. However I now do not have a google play store. I have installed slim gapps but still do not have the store. Thoughts?

Thanks, that worked, but is the play store supposed to have a black background? And why does it have to be Multi DPI? (Curious)

The black background is the inverted version exactly the same in every way as a normal play store app. The black background is a power saving mod as it's less for the screen light up . The multi DPI is so it can recognise devices with differing DPI settings. (i think) Its an option to change in settings. Stock slim is dpi 182 i prefer 240 . Multi dpi play store will work with both

Ah alright, I didn't realize the black background had power saving purposes, I thought it was either a glitch or just supposed to look cool. I just got done messing with the DPI settings. I think I settled on 210? 182 was a bit too small. Thanks for your help and info.
Slim ICS / JB on S ll
Hello Calliddus.
I do not intend to hack your thread, just need some help.
Am new to the forum and to android. Have read the noob tutorials posted around.
I bought a new Samsung Galaxy S 2 which came with ICS 4.0.3 running on it.
I intend to install Slim bean ( if possible ), or Slim ICS (if its more practical) on the phone.
You seem to know what you are talking about, and I can't post on the Development threads in the forum.
Hence if it isn't must trouble, can you please guide me through the following ?
1. I tried looking, and since I couldn't find anything, would i be right if I assumed that installing a Slim ROM (Either ICS 4.0.4 or JB) over the Stock Samsung 4.0.3 , would not be something wrong or undesirable to do ?
2. I am not a very heavy or avid user, but I would like a simple, plain and glitch free OS with the advance customization options, so should I just stick to Slim ics or should i think about Slim bean (assuming its possible to install it on my device) ?
3. What backup method would you suggest, assuming I will fail in my upgrade and will have to go back to stock once again? ( Nandroid, CWM recovery, etc.. )
I have a lot more questions, but not as important.
Your help will be appreciated.

As the title says,I have moded stock OP Launcher to have transparent hotseat,(dock), for apps in homescreen.
Launcher apk is pulled from latest beta for OP3T, I belive it should work on OP3 also but not tested.
Instructions:
Use some root file explorer (I use Solid)
Go to root/system/app/OP_Launcher_aosp and rename existing apk (OP_Launcher_aosp.apk.bak)
Copy OP_Launcher_aosp to root/system/app/OP_Launcher_aosp
Set permissions to rw-r-r
Reboot and enjoy.
If you get stuck on boot for some reason:
Go to TWRP and mount system
Go to file manager and browse to system/app/OP_Launcher_aosp
Delete current apk and than remove .bak from original apk
Reboot.

I recently did a factory reset( so my device should be fresh). Beside this launcher mod, the only other thing that I think will mess with the system is Magisk, but all of my modules doesn't seem like it's going to conflict with any display settings at all.
Wonder if Im running an outdated launcher or not?
