Looks awesome, the only problem i see is my big fingers/thumb would never hit only one button. I could see that problem driving me nuts in a matter of minutes! Love the idea though, if the icons were a bit bigger i would definitely consider this when CM9 is finished.

Agree...I fat finger buttons right now, could not imagine how bad it would be if i ran that set up.

Looks sweet though....still blown away by the dev community around this phone, amazing

**zero neck** · 04-29-2012, 02:24 PM

yeah the dev support is insane.

i used the tablet mod that was around about a month ago - lasted only a few hours bc of the button sizes - wayyy to small to do anything wihtout looking really carefully for the tiny icons.

this one is supposed to be a hybrid (at least when it's done). not sure if that means there might be some way to change the size of things ...

Looks like it would be great on a Galaxy Note! Sounds like the text may be a tad small for me to use everyday.

On a related note, just loaded up the latest CM9 nightly in a Boot Manager slot. It's been a while since I've tried CM9 and it looks like it could be a daily driver at this point. Still a few things that are unfinished (like Theme Manager) but all the parts I care about are there and seem to be working fine.

Didn't spend too much time using Trebuchet as I loaded up Nova Prime after flashing. Can confirm that Cid has arrived and is featured in a snazzy new boot animation.

Go for it. I last tried CM9 about a month or two ago and it was much more of a work in progress. It still is, but the missing features I've found so far are not ones I use (theme chooser and fancy lockscreen options).

It's quick and smooth. It reminds me of why I stayed with CM7 on my ThunderBolt after trying practically every ROM for that device.

So it has lock screen options? Excellent!

Not yet. I had a typo in my prior post. The lockscreen options in CM9 are still just a placeholder. It doesn't matter to me since I use the standard PIN lockscreen.

You bastid!

Flashing 4/29 anyway. Need a study break.

Edit: No Cid either, now I just feel sad

**NotJustAPhone** · 04-29-2012, 05:05 PM

You didn't get a boot animation?

No it did. It had Andy, their old mascot, not Cid, the new one lol

Minor grievance. Flashed 3/17 GAPPS and letting it do its magic.

Did you flash the 4/22 package AFTER, or just update stuff via Play Store?

I just did it through Play Store. Read that you can flash the 4-22 Gapps in recovery after wiping Dalvik but haven't tried it that way.

Edit: Sorry about the confusion over the mascot. I never knew Andy's name and the last time I tried CM9 there wasn't a custom boot animation included. I'll miss ol' Andy (even though I didn't even know his name).

Cid looks wickedly alien.

Wonder if this fixes the Store and Google account update issues?

How's CM9 treating you so far?

So far so good. Using Nova, riding on their default kernel for now.

Re: GAPPS--I presume it does, but will not go through this process again today

Given the flashing tendencies of the bunch around here, I'm sure we'll know soon enough.

**Nechasin** · 04-29-2012, 06:43 PM

If I looked at this thread before I flashed M5 I would have told ya....oh well.
