[mod] Get rid of qslides in notification - LG Optimus G Pro

Hi, this is a fairly advanced topic, I'm not providing a nice little cwm file for you to "apply" or "revert" so you gotta know what you're doing. Namely, you'll need to know how to type some commands via adb and be rooted.
I'm providing two CWM files that you can flash over odexed or deodexed LG Optimus G Pro ROMs. Simply put these in your sdcard, use the 2nd init recovery to reboot into recovery, then apply and reboot.
Props to mateo1111 and lv4n35. I used their contribution for "pointers"
Enjoy your reclaimed notification slide down real estate.

worked great, thanks!
i think i already asked but could you look into removing the at&t text from the statusbar? also making all the text color holo blue? i believe all of this is in the systemUI.

Worked on mine as well. Thanks for putting this together!

once and if we get the bootloader unlocked, then it would make sense to provide cwm files that you can apply and revert easily. if someone packages this file in a cwm file in the meantime that you can flash via 2nd init, then I'll post it in the OP.
Edit: found the time to push two cwm files in the OP

I pushed the modified .apk to /system/app using Root Browser. So far so good and QSlides are history. I renamed LGSystemUI.apk to LGSystemUI.bak, pasted in the modified version, set the permissions to RWRR and rebooted.

Correct. You have to be rooted and be using a root-level file explorer. (I like Root Browser Lite by JRummy Apps)
EDIT: This is what the permissions page should look like.

The demand for this mod is more than I initially anticipated. You guys made me feel bad :silly: so I'm providing two little nice CWM flashable files in the OP. This should now work on odexed or deodexed ROMs. Guys with international PRO variants, you can try these files too. Worse case is that you'll have to flash back to stock using LGFlashTools given that we have no recovery to fix stuff from a soft brick yet.

Thanks so much for all of your hard work! I figured pushing via file explorer was easier than ADB push (especially for people like me with little command line experience) so I decided to make myself a guinea pig and test that method.

It works in most cases but sometimes when the status bar UI restarts before you reboot, it might cause some corruption in the dalvik-cache and give you all kind of weird sh*t when you reboot. That's why I like to either do things in recovery, clean dalvik and reboot, or "stop" the OS, do my stuff in adb, and reboot. In any case, I just tested the cwm "hide" file in the OP and it works indeed It should be be pretty easy to flash this mod now.

[MetaMorph] Gingerbread for CM 6+

I "ported" (very little work by me) Krispy's Metamorph for the GSM Hero to the G1, so that we may have a Gingerbread looking theme. I also included the animations and color folder from gingerbread which he didn't have included. The pictures are from Krispy's page, as they are essentially the same theme.

}
This changes the fonts, animations, and framework images to gingerbread style.
Use metamorph to flash this, and then use CyanogenMod settings -> User Interface to change the Clock, Date, and Notifications ticker to white.
Update 1.1: Added Krispy's changes.
v1.1 now has both animation- and theme-packages in seperate metamorph directories. That way you can choose whether you want those animations or not ... or just the animations Also it has cleaned up contactframes (aka they be gone now) as well as cleaned up waiting spinners (no more jagged edges there).

Update 1.2: Added Browser and Dialer images, and a few animation .xmls that were missing (none that will likely see)
Update 1.3: Added dark menus (when menu button is pressed)

What animations would these be, IE the orange light border when you hit the start/end of a menu etc.
Would this work on the Hero also, i thinking kind of yes :S

i'm not necessarily sure exactly which they would be. I used to have animations off, and it's been awhile since i've seen the old ones.
But for sure, the animations of when you unlock the screen and when a menu pops up are different.
Also when a menu pops up (flys up in a semi circle from the bottom right corner), the background fades out over a few seconds, that may or may not have been there before because I was never looking for it, but I think that's new too.
To answer your other question, this probably will work on the hero also, and probably any mdpi device that is running Froyo, but i'm not going to make any promises due to me not having a Hero!
As with Krispys Metamorph, installs the fonts but not the framework-res
tried it 3 times now, its strange some people can get it to work some cant :S

Interesting.. Metamorph needs 1 Root, 2 Busybox, 3 adequate space on /system, 4 proper naming. might be something else you need, but check all those. Try using Titanium Backup to re-install busybox
Also try applying the framework-res individually instead of Apply All, if you haven't do that already

i can't send you a framework-res.apk because I don't have a hero sorry.
and i don't know if changing the custom pull downbar would cause bootloops, because i've had no need to change the color since this makes it black

CM9 On Screen Nav Buttons *updated for alpha5-1*

Updated for CM9 Alpha 5-pre1
flashable zip this time
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/8566596/CM9-PreAlpha5-NavBar.zip *note for alpha5-pre1 only*
[notes for simple disable]
Edit a quick way to disable this mod without reflashing rom is to edit your build prop
Add this line to your /system/build.prop: qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 and reboot
I use Rom Toolbox for this, make the changes, save and reboot. Rom Toolbox will save your original build.prop as build.prop.bak and you can restore it to turn it back on.
What can we use because I really need this... Can you gave me a file to enable it and disable it?
Thanks

Other ways to install this is to replace this file into the rom zip and reflash or I'm sure you can edit gapps.zip to flash this also.
I had done this on my current framework-res.apk and it worked fine, then I redid it again from framework-res.apk from cm9 alpha 4 which I pulled from the zip. I have not tested but it should work.
As always make a backup first.

What changes to the framework-res.apk to enable this mod. Seems like it would be easier to just make a flashable zip that changes the necessary files and allows it to be compatible with all future builds.
Decompile framework-res/ res/values/bools.xml
config_showNavigationBar = true
And you can change the dimensions if you like in values/dimesions.xml. You may need to change the images if you make it to small.

If you make it too small you have to update the images in systemUI also I believe, I seen most do either 37 or 34

[MOD] [4.1.2] Segmented Circle Battery Mod. 1% Increments. Based on 4.1.2 Stock

This is a Circle Battery Mod with 1% increments and a working battery charging animation. It has the segmented circle (as opposed to the solid, unbroken circle). It is based on the de-odexed stock 4.1.2
~~!! NOT COMPATIBLE WITH 4.2 !!~~
NOTES:
- De-odexed only (Though I've heard it works to over-write your SystemUI even if you are odexed, as always, perform changes at your own risk. Backup recommended.)
- Tested with the Factory/Stock De-odexed ROM by teshxx (found here)
- For STOCK based ROMs only. WILL NOT work with CM or other modified ROMs.
- Use on other ROMs at your own risk
- Mine is for the GSM model. If you would like one for the CDMA/LTE model, please go here. This one was for the Verizon model, and would not work on mine, but inspired me to make one for the GSM.
The attached zip should be flashable in CWM or TWRP, but I cannot guarantee anything. As always make a backup first.
EDIT: I've re-created and re-uploaded the .zip, and had a user report that the flash worked. Flash away!
If the flash STILL fails, please unzip it, and pull the .apk out and manually copy it into /system/app and reboot. Changing the permissions on it after copying would probably be recommended (should be rw-r-r).

Unfortunately I'm not quite that skilled, and am not sure where to pull that from. I'm quite new to modding and this was my first ever mod that actually worked.
But just to be clear, you are referring to the rotation lock like on the Nexus 7's notification bar right?
I flashed this twice and it didn't change anything. Do I have to enable it or something?

Shouldn't have to. It should overwrite your existing SystemUI and take effect immediately after flashing. If it's not flashing properly, try pulling the apk out of the .zip file and replacing your SystemUI manually (using something like Root Explorer or any other app that lets you see the root files of your device).

Hmm, OK. I'll give it a shot. The battery stuff is contained in the SystemUI.apk, but the rotation toggle is part of the framework. I'll see what I can do, but no guarantees.
EDIT: I've tried, but it's a little bit beyond my current knowledge. Modifying the SystemUI was child's play in comparison to trying to work with stuff in the framework. It may be a simple tweak once you get there, but getting there for me is the difficult bit. I can't seem to get the .jar extracted properly to find the .smali file required as detailed in the thread you linked. My apologies, I don't think I'll be able to get that one for you.
thanks. I didn't try to flash it over CWM, but copied SystemUI.apk to system/app. It works well.
Hi, I took the risk and pushed the SystemUI.apk to system/app on my stock OTA 4.1.2 and it worked! Stock ROMs that came directly from Google are odexed by default right? It seems to work fine here without problems.
Thanks for the share.. works great.

Interesting. Keeping the odex when it's unneeded shouldn't be a problem (I don't think so anyway), but I believe the problem comes in if you delete it when you do need it. So you should be OK.

I couldn't find any other that worked for the GSM that was based in 4.1.2. All of the ones that I found were either based in 4.1.1 or were for Verizon. So for me, yes it is indeed the first one that worked. And I learned something new in the process of making it work. Thank you, have a nice day!
Great job!
I have just flashed through CWM, and it works perfectly!
I dun know why other %bat mod not compatible with my deodexed ROM, but this one works!
Highly appreciate with your work!

Glad to hear that the rebuilt CWM flasher works! Thanks!
worked like a charm on stock deodexed 4.1.2
manually pushed the apk (did a backup of the original systemui.apk) and did set the correct permissions. showed up after a system reboot
Didn't work before, but works now! Just flashed on bigxie's 4.1.2. Thanks!

I could build a ZipThemer for you, so that it will be compatible with any jb rom if you like.
EDIT: scratch that. Just tried & ended up with no battery. Lol. But being as stubborn as I am, I will try again.

[MOD]Get rid of carrier label

Got tired of that big AT&T label on my statusbar.
Download to sdcard and use the 2nd init recovery to reboot into recovery, then apply and reboot. I used madmack's qslide flashable as a base so it should work fine. I personally just use root explorer and move apks directly because I dont use this recovery.
Should work on odexed or deodexed LG Optimus G Pro ROMs.

I don't see why not. You'd have to rename all the images to match what lg is using.
hello, striking out trying to install this. 1st tried twrp, can't get it to install so i figure i'll use root explorer and switch the systemui.apk, but can't seem to find where that is on this phone, it's not showing up under system/
any ideas?

I haven't tried it myself, but it looks like it's meant to replace LGSystemUI.apk in system/app/.
I hope that helps and good luck!

He said to use 2 int recovery thats different from twrp. Think theres a thread in one of the lg threads on how to do that.

You're welcome . Apparently, they've gone and given it their own naming scheme.
If you look in the zip, it looks like it's simply swapping out the status_bar.xml within the res/layout/ of LGSystemUI.apk. It's been a while since I've done any xml edits for system apps, but you might be able to simply insert that modified xml into the existing apk. Might also be wise to save a backup of the original.

yeah, i hear ya, i took a peek in there, was hoping it was the entire apk, i'm gonna pass on this mod, the att label isn't that big of a deal.

thanks, that's the one i used as well, i flashed it and then downloaded the twrp manager app from the play store to access it. the problem seems to be with this, when i go to flash the zip, the app tries to flash but it then goes back to the main twrp interface, it hangs there for several minutes, the screen goes dark, i hit the power button and the screen comes on but stuck on the twrp lock screen and the swiper does not work. i have to do a long press on the power button to get the phone to restart.
i'll either have to ask about this in the twrp thread, drop the attempt all-together, or use the lg tool to reflash the stock rom and start over.

[Flashable Zip] [N7 Wifi only] [KRT16S] Translucent lockscreen bars for 4.4

Hi!
I noticed that the N7 2012 doesn't have the new translucent status & bottom bar on the lock screen.
Nobody seems to have created a zip for the N7, though the N4 has had some love.
I have it working for me, so I thought I'd share.
Please don't use this zip on the N7 3G.
KRT16S Version (Latest)
Code:
Flash this from recovery for your translucent bars:
[url]https://db.tt/DtUygIHb[/url]
Flash this to restore to original in case of bootloops:
[url]https://db.tt/TxfTykJj[/url]
KRT16O Version (old)
Code:
Flash this from recovery for your translucent bars:
[url]https://db.tt/lon9dKd3[/url]
Flash this to restore to original in case of bootloops:
[url]https://db.tt/vClhQlsx[/url]
If Dropbox kills the links for some reason, please drop me a pm.
You shouldn't need to clear cache, but try it if you get a bootloop.
Credits
Hardly any of this is my work, I merely unpacked, edited and packed again.
Thank you to Floydfire for creating this for the N4, and heavily inspiring even my thread title: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2527525
Thanks very much to Quinny899 for an extremely useful guide that got me most of the way: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2510410
Thanks to Flextrick for making Android Multitool: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2326604
And last but not least, the devs of apktool.
Cheers, and hope you are enjoying KitKat!
Bro I think there's something wrong with the zip..

The "framework" folder should be inside a "system" folder, while it's not. I'll try editing the zip and see if it works, but flashing it like this might be dangerous..
EDIT:I just looked at the updater-script, now I understand.. BTW, does it need a deodexed ROM?

Works great on stock rooted rom installed via flashable zip from the general section!

Thanks a lot, I tried to follow Quinny's guide as well but always got caught in bootloops (I have plenty of errors when compiling again, probably has sth to do with apktool).
Got a little frustrated when I saw your zip worked though
Thanks again
Thanks for sharing your work.
FYI if you install Googlehome.apk you'll get transparent status and navbar, as well as the new folder and wallpapers.

I'd just recently used the N7 4.4 factory image and tested with that, so just stock is fine.

I had a frustrating half hour sorting this, during which I could see that the transparency had worked, but it started to bootloop within a minute of hitting the lock screen.
If you want to have another go, try Android Multitool (linked in OP), but don't sign it in that, or with zipsigner. Copy the meta-inf and manifest back from the original apk, instead of signing.
Doing it manually, you may need to place the apk in /system/, then set permissions (0644), then move to /system/framework/

Yup, that or the current Nova Launcher Beta (my personal preference).
Glad it is working for everyone and you are all welcome!
I wanted transparent navi and notification bars so bad but the stock and GEL wont do it (people say it does but it wont) so i installed nova launcher beta and it worked without any mod now i just flashed this mod. nova still working stock still black bars and dont have GEL to check it but i think it will work
Thank you.
Factory image rooted works fine.

Yeap, afraid so - maybe keep the original on your device for easy flashing?
I'll be looking forward to Xposed being updating for 4.4 to avoid this in the future

Thanks for the tip, I just tried your way with new KRT16S build, and it worked (even though MultiTool gave me some aapt warnings). :good:
