Hi there,
After I have tried to shrink a titan black bottom navigation bar. I have found that it is required several steps to do in resizing this bar. So I created a zip file that can be flashed through CWM in order to resize a Nav. bar by half in both portrait and landscape orientation. In fact, this function can be found in PA (ParanoidAndroid) custom firmware. You can also find a manual way in resizing this bar by de-compiling and re-compiling framework-res.apk but if you are lazy to do or do not know how to do and want to stick with an original rom, this is your solution.
Sorry that I could not provide a screenshot but after modifying you will be surprised on a larger usable screen area on your N7.
*** Warning - DO back up your ROM first, in case anything goes wrong. This works on a stock firmware. Please do not try on a custom rom as I could not guarantee a result. Edit: Some users reported that this does NOT work with a custom rom as well as a stock 3G model. ***
Tested environment - Asus Nexus 7 Stock JB 4.2.2
Edit : A stock framework added for going back to default, in case forgot to do a backup.

make a nandroid backup & try it yourself that is the only way you are gonna find out & if it doesn't then at least you can revert back to your backup without any problems
Will do, just wanted to see if anybody had tried it first I'll post back with results in the next few days
EDIT: So I tried this instead of doing my revision, and my ROM wouldn't boot. Naturally, I restored the nandroid backup, but when I rebooted, the same thing happened; it now hangs on the boot animation and won't do anyhting useful!
Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Normally, a backup option in CWM would archive all data in a device except /sdcard. Which version of CWM did you use ?

Oh, I never use TWRP before. I am sticking with CWM since a start. So I bet your recovery backed up a wrong one. No problem with CWM back up though.
No worries, I've looked into it since and realised that mutiROM Roms cannot be back up... probably should've realised that before hand! Oh well, if an update is released for more roms I'll risk it all over again

Well, no plan for a custom ROM right now. I am going to make a mod on N4 first. Thanks for interesting my work anyway.
I've been looking for something just like this for my Nexus 4. Anybody going to be kind and make it? I've tried myself and failed several times already... No biggie since I made a backup before screwing my phone up several times. I'm running a stock rooted rom, and nobody likes to make many cool mods like this if you want to stick with the stock. After I get a smaller nav bar my next goal is to make the icons green.

Try booting into recovery from clockworkmod and flash it the old fashioned way. Some ROMs don't play nicely with the built-in install function. But the working recovery is the key we've needed.
installed through ROM manager, looks like it's working nicely!
It should be noted that this is ClockworkMod Touch, no less. It looks like it's working great!

If you click install recovery it will install the touch version, you don't have to click the lower button (install touch recovery) on the menu.

A huge leap forward, again! We technically now have real support from devs out there. Not only r we gonna get CM9, we also received proper CWM with TOUCH! That is just great.
I just wanna say this real quick to KernelPan!c. If you are reading this Kernel, I know you know that your ROM's days are ticking down as CM9 moves closer to reality, but I just wanna say Thank you for all the hard work you have put in into your wonderful ROM! It has given many users here the hope (if its even the slightest bit) that this phone will not be left undeveloped. You kept supporting your ROM when everyone else has dropped out and I greatly appreciate your dedication. I'm sure many others here will agree with me on this.

Absolutely Thank you so much Kernal, and Bytecode for the original port of CWM it's so awesome...
Not working on LU6200, tried it with ROM manager and also via USB and Adb-method. On reboot I got stuck on LG-Logo and no way to enter Recovery. ROM manager found the CWM without any problem and also installed it. However, after reboot and open ROM manager again it states that there is no compatible CWM version available for my phone. Any ideas ?

This has worked wonderfully for me,
i find that it wont connect to data untill i go into the dialer and enter *#*#DATA#*#* once
so far no bugs that i can tell.......:fingers-crossed:
will report after i take it for a spin.
and do you mind if i post a link for this rom in the Sprint LG G2 Dev section? or maybe have the Mods move it to the right section?
ill se if i can put a request for this thread to be moved, this is great work.
i'm not a dev but i can post a tutorial on how to get it working of the Sprint G2 if you would like
Im eager to try this out by the way does it have rotation issues after trying cm10.2 i have rotation issues
Issues found
Okay been running this for about a week now and this is what I found so far:
-MMS doesn't work, I receive notifications for them but never download
-Wifi and bluetooth are buggy, toggles from the Quick Settings menu tend to get stuck after 2-3 toggles and require a reboot to fix
-Dialer doesn't pick up touches sometimes
-NFC gets stuck in on position and causes massive wakelocks. I ended up disabling NFCService and Tag Service to stop the issues
-Mobile Networks Section has GSM settings in it
-Flash seems disabled in AOSP Camera app
-Rotation issues like other AOSP roms
Besides that though the ROM is surprisingly usable for being one of the few roms available for the Sprint G2, I would definitely like to see your build code since it looks 90% in working condition.

usually the culprit of not wiping. its a given that you need to wipe every time you switch roms especially from stock to custom rom.

I noticed some comments on the download saying after installing they fell into a boot loop, but I didn't have any problems like that. Only two issues I saw was rom mgr was gone and wifi couldn't get past "...turning on" (even after a reboot).
I went ahead and went back to my backup and will give cm11 a try every day or so - the wifi thing I suspect will work itself out.

Most likely yes, TWRP is the culprit. Try Philz Touch 6.0.0.8, it has been amazing for me. Make sure to do a complete wipe of system, Dalvik-cache, and cache, the option on Philz is called "complete wipe to install new ROM" and then make sure to flash 4.4 GApps as well.

the cameras fine. the original CM 11 had some bugs like the front facing camera freezing up a phone and causing a reboot but the newest updates based off Google's release of 4.4.1 which was to fix bugs with the camera on the Nexus 5 they have fixed all camera issues and it even takes photos/focuses faster than before.
anybody able to use ART runtime, mine just reboots but it doesn't change it. my nexus 7 with CM11 does run ART though, any luck?
everything seems to be working fine and super fast. calendar wasn't syncing but today's update thru the playstore fixed it for me. camera seems the same to me.

it was the same GAPPS i used on my Nexus 7 tho, ohh well, im gonna have to read up on it, i did try looking for info here at xda but couldnt find much, didnt have much much time to look though.
I just Installed the newest nightly and Xposed Installer+GravityBox(KK) to make up for the past CM features such as controlling the brightness witht the status bar and changing the launching application on the notification bar's Time & Date. One feature I am still missing is removing the names of the apps on the homescreen... If you like extra features and modifications to your guy's phone i highly recomment Xposed+Gravitybox.

Im loving 4.4 even with a broken screen which i hoping to abandon soon, but it really feels like a new phone and new experience, i know there wasnt much change but still
Good evening everyone. I recently got this phone from the Black Friday deal at Best Buy for 80$ and rooted and did all of that without much problem. I installed the Wicked ROM without any issues, and tested it out but I prefer AOSP. But when I flash Cyanogen or Bliss, I lose all of the mobile data , the baseband, here I include a screenshot. I have flashed a stock ROM once again, activated it again without any problem, but when I try to flash an AOSP ROM again I lose everything. Is there anything I can do about that? I have searched the forums and Google and found no solutions. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Did you check to make sure that the md5 matched? Anytime I've had that happen either the md5 didn't match, or I needed to use a different kernel. My Goto kernel for AOSP ROMs has been BMS.

Thanks for the tip, tried flashing Cyanogenmod with that kernel and the same thing happens, I lose all of the settings related to the Baseband, Modem and IMEI. I checked the md5 and it matches completely. I have no idea what is happening. For now I settled into the Conquest Singulalirty ROM which provides an ASJOP look but on offical firmware. But still I would like to know how to solve this problem so if anyone has any tips that would be greatly appreciated.
Is your phone the L710T model by any chance? I had the same problem with every rom I tried EXCEPT for Gummy 3.0. For some reason Gummy 3.0 recognizes my baseband/modem but if I try Gummy 4.0 or any other AOSP rom, no baseband.
Flash universal fix
luisro said:
Good evening everyone. I recently got this phone from the Black Friday deal at Best Buy for 80$ and rooted and did all of that without much problem. I installed the Wicked ROM without any issues, and tested it out but I prefer AOSP. But when I flash Cyanogen or Bliss, I lose all of the mobile data , the baseband, here I include a screenshot. I have flashed a stock ROM once again, activated it again without any problem, but when I try to flash an AOSP ROM again I lose everything. Is there anything I can do about that? I have searched the forums and Google and found no solutions. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Flash the file here: http://androidforums.com/threads/mo...apn-fix-wip-cm-aosp-4-4-x.840298/#post6516416
It will modify necessary files in the system to allow you to connect. Also, dial ##72786# to reactivate after flashing. That all worked for me on my Virgin S3 running Carbon. Good luck!
The SPH-L710T is what was on sale at BestBuy for $80 (as I found out after running into a similar problem), and it's a pain in the ass. It seems that TW ROMs are the only ones that don't break the radio... and the M10 snapshot of CM11 apparently (except rotation is backwards). I'm looking for a fix as well.
It seems that all of this can be fixed by a custom kernel, but there's no AOSP/CM kernel (that I know of) that fixes both.
I wish I knew something about kernel development...

That is exactly the one that I have, the 80$ Best Buy from Black Friday. Yeah, I tried what metalhead131 said and it did not work. Hmmm, M10 snapshot worked for you? I will try it out them to see how it goes. In what way did it break the rotation? It does not rotate or is it inaccurate? It is a pain in the ass that we have so many ROMS available but we can't use them. I have been using the Conquest Singularity by Moon Knight. The one that is here in XDA is kinda of outdated but if you Google it you will find his blog with the latest update. He created an AOSP looking ROM but it is TW underneath. That combined with Gravity Box has satisfied me for now, but I hate no being able to flash AOSP ROMS. I know nothing about kernel development, but if someone wants to help with this I can provide anything they need in order to fix this problem with this T version of the phone.
I will try to take the kernel of the M10 and flash it with another ROM to see if the rotation works. I will update as soon as I do that.

Yeah, the radio worked with the M10 snapshot. I was able to get the latest version of ParanoidAndroid to work with the M10 snapshot kernel as well.
When I say rotation is broken I mean when you hold it sideways, it rotates the wrong way, so it's upside down.

Excellent. Thanks for the good news! That doesn't bother me that much, so I will do that with the Bliss ROM that I wanted to install. I will keep investigating and trying things to see if we can fix the rotation issue. I will keep the thread updated.
Semi-Fix for the rotation issue on the M10 kernel.
After checking some apps out, I found one that worked well for the rotation problem using AOSP ROMS on the troublesome SPH-L710T. The app is called Adaptive Rotation Lock and is available for free on the Play Store. What it does is that a little button pops up everytime you rotate your phone, and if you don't click that button the screen will not rotate. So once you put your phone horizontallly, click on the button that pops up to allow the phone to rotate upside-down, then rotate the phone so it is not upside-down anymore, but do not click the button, so it stays in the correct rotation. It is a little cumbersome, but it beats always being upside down while using the phone horizontally! I think this is a good option while we find out how to fix this issue in the kernel.

Greeting kdude63. Thanks to your tips I was able to test many roms and as you settled on Paranoid Android. The only problem I have right now is that intermittently point I lose cell coverage for like 2 minutes, but then I get it back. Does that happen on your phone?
I have also tried many kernels to see if I find another one that works but no go. I am still using the M10 boot.img. Have you found another one that works?
And thanks for helping out with the ODIN tar for this phone! It makes me feel a lot more safe when I am experimenting.

I don't currently use PA or CM as my daily driver, so I don't know. (I don't like dealing with the rotation issues)
I was testing some other kernels earlier, none of them worked before I got careless and accidentally flashed an i9300 kernel, so I can't use my phone for the time being.
Cnexus and several others have posted debrick images and stock ROMS for various versions of the s3. Good luck debricking

Yep, I flashed it normally. Using Philz I got the Wicked 8 zip file and a couple of the addons that are available without any problems but since I don't like the Touchwiz UI too much I am currently running Conquest. Maybe try the full Wicked 8 zip? I did not try the barebones, but I can confirm that Wicked 8 works on the T model. It has the rotation issue but a couple of post ago I described how to get around that. Let me know if it works!

i was finally able to flash bare-bones i had to flash the updated kernel i used for Conquest beta 10
I'm glad! At least we can use Touchwiz based ROMs while we can find a way to create a kernel that is completely compatible with the T model. Is your rotation working correctly?

Yes rotation is working and with the next few updates on CM side they will be fully working on the T model cause CM already updated a fix for the T model
I got spooked when the baseband disappeared and rotation was not working. Went back to stock. Of course you also seem to need the special 2.7 twrp in order to mount system. But the price was right.

Has anyone figured this out yet? I tried, and got the TWRP recovery installed, (although at the top of the screen when booting to TWRP it said in red letters, Not enforcing SElinix ?) anyway, then I tried to flash the SU superuser and it boot looped. So I am back at the beginning after managing to get back into TWRP and wiped, and re flashed the new 5.1.1 again. Has anyone else had any luck with this? I haven't tried CF autoroot yet, and to be honest I'm really scared to after this.
edit...someone else tried the CF autoroot, and it too boot looped their tab. This doesn't look good.
I gave one idea in the other thread. Or try making a pre-rooted version with this.

Thats well beyond my skills. Thanks tho, but there isn't many developers for our t-900, so it looks like we may have to put up with bloatware for a while.
If/when the 10.1 lollipop update comes out I might take a stab at it... But no promises. I used to do stuff for the Tab 2 10.1 until it broke... And that was using the old Android kitchen. I've never used the new one...
I haven't done any dev work in over a year, and even then it was pretty basic! Lol just a couple of ports and pre-rooted roms.

Oh cool, hopefully it's easier than the old kitchen! Good luck!
anyone tried this yet? (flashfire) looks like it is working on the p-900 note pro. Looks kinda involved though. Several of them report success, but their rom is 5.0.2 and ours is 5.1.1 not sure if that matters tho...

Why don't you try it?
I'm trying to DL the FW right now, but at this rate I won't have it until sometime tomorrow. Pretty annoying server.
ps. if you try flashfire, make sure you set your tablet date back a month in order to make flashfire think the beta isn't over (it won't work if it sees the date as past September 1).
I'm not sure how flash fire will help since we are already flashed to 511
SUPER TEST VERSION of pre-rooted 5.1.1
I do not have a 12.2 Tab Pro so there is no way I can test or troubleshoot this ROM
NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR BRICKED DEVICES!!! YMMV!!! PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!
Install using TWRP. Make sure to wipe system/data!
Edit: Link removed. Did not work.
