app settings should work, anything below 290 I think will push it into tablet UI, set the DP as well to the max one

Just checked and it's not working here either, haven't had xposed active for a week or more so hadn't noticed.
Google may have broken it? or the new xposed or the new app settings...?

Install xposed
install app settings module
Install TabletMetrics module http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/module-tabletmetrics-report-screen-7-v1-t2596603
Install chrome
Activate xposed
Activate app settings module
Activate TabletMetrics module
reboot
Open app settings
Go to chrome
Chose:
DPI: 350
Screen (dp): 1000x 1600
save
force close chrome
start chrome
Now you should see the tabs as on a tablet device.

I know how to do it ang it's not working on the new xposed and chrome 34.0.1847.114

Found another solution as well, dpi at 286 and then screen 800x1280..

Running the same version
Running Xposed 2.6 (The apps shows no new updates)
Running App settings module 1.9 (The app module shows no new updates)
Running TabletMetrics module 2.1 (The app module shows no new updates) [originally used to get tablet UI for spotify client spoofing into tablet mode = free music]

App Settings and Chrome works just fine. I'm using Chrome Beta and App Settings. Sett the Dpi to 320 or lower and set the DP to 800x1280.
Done. It's the same thing with all other apps that have tablet UI.

That's strange. Have you tried Chrome Beta? Works just fine here, and I have never had any issues with DPI changes.

[Q] Cant See any Themes

Hello everyone, past week i have downloaded themer app and my phone runs pac 4.3, i had to reset the deault layouts and dpi as per the description in playstore, still i cant see any themes, any help is required
Kinda sorta in the same boat. I did modify the nav bar but since it's looks for specific resolutions even stock I doubt it would should since it not going to report an expected resolution.
Thought I'd try app settings to trick Themer but that doesn't have a supported resolution either. Looks like a glaring oversight.

My Xperia L has unusual 782x480 :/
So Themer doesn't show any theme in browse menu
Having the same issue with my Z. However, my Z is rooted with a custom rom, "eXsistenZ v3". I just read that Themer has issues with custom roms so... that might be the issue.

The server must be down, I am having problems loading themes aswell
Its because of the screen resolutions.
Funny thing they dont even work on 1280x800
I have a xperia z with the stock rom
the resolution according to themer is 1824*1080
When will this resolution get supported?
I have the same issue on my Xperia ZL - Resolution is the same as on the Xperia Z. It's Rooted Stock 4.2.2
Not working on Sony Xperia T (modded nav bar size)
can't find any themes.
Same issue here with my Nexus 4 with the stock 48 dp navbar, It was working last week too, but later that day it started doing this.
EDIT: Mega derp, apparently I accidentally set navbar to 44 dp. Now the themes show
No issues here, if I mod the nav bar size then I get no theme but if I changed to stock then reboot then all is good
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
most of custom roms have a little modified resolution, may be it is the reason we are having this issue, other launchers like buzz launcher works fine even on custom ROM, may be they try to add support for that soon, coz i dont want to move back to the stock os fto just beta test an app

Buzz use 3rd party apps like zooper and uccw that u can change the widget. Themer run on its own.

[MOD][2.3+] XLDrawer - Replace "Holo" drawer icons with "Material" drawer icons (L)

[MOD][2.3+] XLDrawer - Replace "Holo" drawer icons with "Material" drawer icons (L)
This is an extremely simple module, which I highly recommend using with @monish1995's Herathon​
It does three main things:
Replace the old drawer icon:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
with the new drawer icon from L:
Change the height of the actionbar on AppCompat and ActionBarSherlock apps to the L size
Changes the back icons to L style ones
It also provides a GUI to switch from dark to light icons on a per-app basis, as well as turn off the icon changing for apps you don't want theming
Essentially, it fills the gaps of the theme.
Screenshot!
Xposed Repo
APK is also attached
Thanks for your great work :goog:
I test it
Edit: Can't install because incorrect package name :/ ..
Package name incorrect. Please fix this, cause it's preventing installation. Any way you could support normal actionbars as well for us who doesn't use herathon theme?
Does not work.
A toast appears stating that it can't install because the name is incorrect.
You should also add the ic_ab_back pngs to this mod. That would be awesome.
Gmail bars are white instead of black
Doesn't work with Evernote either
Or youtube
Download is fixed
I'll do some more missing stuff later
Installed, but it doesn't seems to be working at all..
Tested with reddit sync, result isn't same as on your screenshot
It is because I'm not using Herathon theme?

Xposed doesn't support L
It's 2.3+, as the title says
Looks good thanks. Although in the app Fenix (twitter client) the icon is white and clashes with the action bar.
Edit: In fact, this seems to be a issue with every app that has a grey/white action bar.

- Updated drawer icons
- Added home-as-up indicators
- Fixed some clashing colours & misthemed icons

xposed framework
app settings add on
you could change the dpi/font, etc for that specific app which is the only solution i can think of for now
Mine looks completely normal.

Yup, same here, but we're running at 400 DPI, while OP is running at 320. Still weird that the text is so small compared to 400 DPI, though.
OP, what's your system font size set to?

Ohh! My Font settings was "smallest" and one option on the gmail setting was somthink like "adjust mail to fit screen" (translated from my phone language) was checked. Changing the system font size make it readable again. Thanks to all, Cheers!!!

what DPI settings have you used?
After upgrading gmail on my phone, I also noticed straightaway how small the font was; hardly usable. On my tablet, it is fine. I went into accessibility settings, changed it to large; this fixed it, but across the whole system, large fonts are not great.

I had the same setting: "Auto-Fit messages". Now I have turned it off, and it is much better. However, the previous version worked fine with the same setting.
There is still the issue of too much wasted space on the new version. Maybe it is my normal initial reaction to such a big change, but so far, I find it a step backward on phones (tablets are ok).

Install the Google Launcher, then click on the Google Launcher icon, it will come up with the message, see image, click on the settings, scroll down and clear defaults, then go back to home, click on Google Launcher again, and it will give you the choice.

What the hell, I tried this 3 times yesterday and it wouldn't work, now it worked first time! Thanks for that.
PEBKAC!
I tried this and after installing GNL I didn't get an option to select it. I rebooted the phone and the option is now there. So if you have problems, try rebooting your phone after the installation.
I'm trying to do this on MM, but when I click on Settings nothing happens.
Any advice?

Try set Google now launcher as default in Settings → App → advanced → something about default app → set, no ? :d
I have the same problem.
Once I tap on settings in the google now prompt it tries to open the settings but fails. Same with nova launcher or trying the settings from the configuration menu. Any solutions?
go to settings -> Manage Apps - > Click on the gear icon setting " Default App Settings" - > Click launcher -> choose your preferred launcher
Sometimes installing another launcher will make Google Now visible in the default home settings. So if GNL isn't showing in the home/launcher settings, try installing some random launcher, Apex for example, and then try going to settings again. This has worked for me before
gnl still not there
hi people wassnt going to route my phone but heard about GNL but i cnt seem to see it in the default apps. i have tried installing apex and that is there but still no joy. all i want to do is not to have the chinese writing on the keyboard and to log into my google account so all my contacts are there. on my phone.
