CyanogenMod to incorporate Paranoid Android Pie Feature


Very neat stuff.  I've been shying away from putting CM10.1 on my device as I really like stock Android.  But that pie feature is pretty cool.

Maybe I'll have to take another look at CM again.

Mmmm Pie

Inspired by the much loved
+Paranoid Android feature, itself inspired by the AOSP Quick Controls found in the stock browser, Pie Controls have landed in CyanogenMod 10.1 nightlies thanks to the efforts of contributor Jens Doll.

Jens took the time to completely rewrite the code and has been working with our UI and UX team to get all the groundwork in for this much requested feature. [1]


The two patches that enable this functionality were merged in late on the 25th of March, so expect them to be incorporated into the next set of nightlies that follow. [2][3]


As an added enhancement, Jens has also incorporated some additional 'Pie' functionality into the Phone UI. [4]


The code will allow for further expansion and enhancements, so expect more goodness to follow. For the time being, this should make for an excellent addition for all you Expanded Desktop users.

  1. Really hope you'll be able to use the top portion of the screen to expand the status bar notifications when it's hidden, in replace for Pie activation at the top of the screen.

    Love the new features!
