The mods listed below are for the "V" version of Google Pixel XL images.
They probably work for non-XL as well as "U" and "X" images, but I can't guarantee this. I would definitely NOT flash this if you're on "N" or anything else.
Do note this is my first time providing framework mods, so... yeah.
Installing this mod probably won't wipe any data or pre-configured settings, but I can't guarantee that either.
The mod may or may not conflict with WETA framework mods, I'm not sure. Please let me know?
LIST OF CUSTOMIZATION YOU GET AFTER DOING THIS MOD:
---Disable screen wake-on when unplug or plug USB
---Disable IME Switcher Notification
---Enable all rotations
---Enable lockscreen rotation
---Disable safe media volume
---Centered Clock
---Enable double-tap to wake (no idea if it works or not, may require kernel)
UPDATE: @Tulsadiver has added battery percentage/numeral options.
Please see post #7 for his zip and give him some thanks!
I'm going to eventually explore more mods, such as getting the 1% battery icon and adjusting status bar icon/clock/battery sizes.
Download the framework-res.apk and SystemUIGoogle.apk here:
http://www.filedropper.com/frameworkfiles
To install, you'll need a file browser with root privileges.
I use Root Explorer and that's what these directions are for.
Before proceeding, I do recommend that you copy your original framework-res and SystemUIGoogle to your PC in case you need to restore them.
1) Download the zip from link above.
2) Extract the zip on your PC.
3) Copy both APK files to your /sdcard.
4) Open Root Explorer and locate the files.
5) Copy both APK's to the /system_root/system folder.
6) Long press each APK and go to Root Explorer settings to change permissions.
7) Change permissions to RW/R/R for both APK's.
8) Copy Framework-res.apk to /system_root/system/framework and replace the existing file.
Your phone will automatically reboot.
9) Let phone boot back up and test to make sure you're okay.
10) Copy SystemUIGoogle.apk to /system_root/system/priv-app/SystemUIGoogle folder and replace the existing file.
Your UI will quickly restart.
I highly recommend manually initiating a full reboot son afterward to avoid UI force-closes.
I hope you enjoy this mod!
Many thanks to the folks in this thread for helping me get this far:

I have duplicated your issue with Root Browser.
Maybe that's why it's a free root app or maybe there is some setting it needs or maybe it's just not capable of understanding the file system to make the changes needed.
Try using Root Explorer.
It's worth the $.

Or you can try to use ADB to change permissions.
You'll have to Google the directions for that though.

You can already get battery percentage in the battery icon, via System UI Tuner. See screenshots below for reference.
Steps to enable System UI Tuner:
Code:
1. Pull down the Notification drawer.
2. Long Press the Cog icon (Settings)
3. Cog should spin and phone should give some haptic feedback with a toast about System UI Tuner being enabled.
4. Settings>System UI Tuner (right above 'About Phone').
5. Tap 'Status Bar' and scroll down.
6. Tap 'Battery'.
7. Choose 'Always show percentage'.

Thank you, that's not what I'm looking for.
That percentage inside the battery sucks.
People with bad eyes can't see it at all.
I'm looking for the larger numbers you got all by theirselves with a percentage symbol next to it.
Like what you saw in Marshmallow's System UI Tuner options.
And ideally, I want to get rid of the percentage symbol too.

I was thinking about getting a Pixel if they ever come on sale and was cruising around. I'm not trying to but-in but i hate to see someone wanting a mod and just ignore it. Again, I don't have this phone but if you want to try these out to see if they work, feel free. Credit goes to this OP. All I did was use his framework and systemui and try to add battery percent to it. I also tried to remove the percent symbol on one and adjust the keyguard statusbar to the same height as the statusbar. Try them at your own risk and OP, if they work, you are welcome to offer them yourself on your main post.

Not a problem. Easy and ancient mod.
Easy?
LOL
I spent at least 90 minutes changing the framework to add 1=1, 2=2, 3=3, 4=4, 5=5, 6=6, 7=7, etc. etc. to battery and battery_charging.
Only to have it not work.
I guess I was following the wrong guide or I messed something up or just gave up too soon.
Thanks again. :good:

As opposed to a Pixel Xl? This is a systemui.apk swap so it will not work on a Pixel.
If you are talking about the battery percent, PM me a copy of the latest firmware version systemui.apk and framework.apk for the Pixel I'll make one for it.

Yes, like a doofus I posted this mod on the Pixel forum letting folks know I didn't know if it would work or not (I thought it would).
One guy tried it and it bootlooped him.
Pixel & XL have the same V, X, U designations and filenames on firmware so with that and some other reasoning, I suspected the framework would be same.
My bad.

Yup, the resolution was one thing I was worried about but I'm not familiar enough with the framework to know if there is anything in it specific to resolution or not.
If you want to upload your framework and let me know which specific mods you want, I'll try to find time to do those edits for you.
So far I only know how to do the mods I listed in the OP.
I haven't had a chance yet to review TulsaDiver's mods to learn them.
Keep in mind though that Google will be rolling out new firmware next week (probably) which may require re-doing the mods in the new framework.
Then its probably a good idea to wait for the next update i guess? TBH if there could be double tap lockscreen/status bar to sleep that would be perfect but maybe we should wait for the new update first? If you want to check out the framework for pixel I am more than happy to upload it to you thought

Resolution isn't the problem. The public Id's do not match. All it takes is one being different and everything afterwards is out of order. The smali's think they are grabbing the dimension for the statusbar and they might be getting back the color of the battery icon instead.
I looked at the pixel files for nde63x. Pixel's apps come already deodexed? How cool is that.
Maybe that would explain why the guide I tried to follow at one point, on how to deodex, kept failing on me. lol
It's so weird because most guides assume stuff is at /system when the Pixel has a /system but everything at /system_root/system instead.
I'm just glad the stock ROM from Google (my first Google phone) is so great "as is".
I still can't wait for Dirty Unicorns to drop.
But if it never does, I'll probably be happy with Xposed and stock Google + framework mods.
The next big thing on my wishlist is to get rid of the "Car Mode" in the drop-down when you're in Car Mode.
You can't tell it to go away and never come back, like Google now lets you do with many other drop-down messages.
Xposed + NotifyClean (or the other app by the same team) will resolve that.

Title says it all.
I usually am somewhere between cm7 nightlies and Mikfroyo, but the other day I was feeling like trying something new and flashed the current Miui. I liked most of the features, but the battery bar that goes across the whole top of the screen really caught my eye. I was wondering if there was any way to use that in other roms? Any help is appreciated, thanks.
EDIT*: thanks to pvyParts, it is possible. Go look at his thread here
I asked this same question a while back, never got a responce. Hopefully this time we get good news

Well it looks like we are the only ones lol
I haven't used miui so I don't know exactly what you are talking about, but you could start by unzipping the framework-res.apk and looking around in there. Maybe you could provide a pic so I could get idea of what all might be involved?

Its a line that goes all the way across the top of the screen, it moves from right to left and changes color when the battery runs down. Id like to see this on my ROM too
winmo used to have something like this.
For anyone who doesn't know about the top-bar battery, here's a screenshot. And anyone trying to judge MIUI completely by this shot, keep in mind that this is a fresh install, and I haven't set it up yet.

The picture says it all. The battery meter across the top looks sexy to me (and other people apparently).
I will look around the .apk and see if I can find anything, thanks.
I am willing to do the legwork, if only I knew where the original file is located. I think we are on to something . Again, thanks for any information. I'll update tomorrow night if I find something useful.
But please, feel free to add any information that you might have.

I apologize for the newb question, but what do you mean? Is this part of the proprietary code involved with Miui? If so, it sounds like we are SOL..
Yes it is. This would be very hard to port because it is closed source.

yeah, it's gonna be hard, hard coded into the firmware would make that battery bar a permanent fixture, would be there through any rom flash, even show up in recovery or fastboot
that was indeed an option in the old WinMo 6.1/6.5.x "Kitchens"
i hated it =P
still unsure of it, but cool to see it here, didn't notice it when i last ran MIUI but that was the early Jan. release. My biggest complaint with MIUI is that all the settings are different(the actual menus themselves) ... nit picky perhaps but other than that MIUI is a p.sweet rom.
Yeah that looks to be more deeply embedded than a couple png changes. You would probably need to figure out what files manipulate the size and screen orientation of the battery meter. If you are serious about getting it, you could compare the miui build before that battery was implemented with the first version of miui that had the new battery. Using diff software you might be able to find all the battery changes.

Might be hard to get a version of MIUI without the top-bar battery. It's been in there since at least October, when I started using it.
As for the person wondering if you're SOL, the MIUI team had to add it with no examples or code, so it could be done in CM. It's just a matter of finding someone who's willing to do it from scratch.

I would be.
If only I knew how lol
Well I've looked around the framework-Res and I think I found the .pngs and the .XML file associated with the icon. But I can't see how it works. The XML is only 3 lines and doesn't seem like it would be animated when charging. But I don't have a good understanding of how it works and could be way off. Anyone else have a chance to look around? Or maybe have some ideas? Anything helps
Animated .png files? For that matter, it seems to me that the top battery could be made up of a bunch of small .png images: maybe like a 10x2 .png or something, placed next to each other across the top bar to do the battery level. The "animation" you see could be a script just moving one of those small images across the top bar to where the battery level currently is, also controlling acceleration and the like.
Just throwing a wild guess out there, but it would help if we knew what those .png files looked like.
*madly hoping something like this could be brought over to Sense* If it could, I'd permanently stick with Sense for quite a while, especially the new Sense coming out.

I think this is it. If you get a chance to watch it charge, you'll see that a small "dot" or "particle" of the bar moves in from the right edge of the screen to the rest of the line.
For anyone trying to port this, if you haven't done so already, you should flash MIUI, change the battery to top-bar (menu -> settings -> system -> battery settings), and use it for a while. Make sure to put the phone on the charger and watch the animation for a bit, too.
When I have more time I'll go digging around... Which directory did you find those files in, Bamba?
edit: since it's a solid color (two technically, if you count the "low battery" color) I'm wondering if it's just a single .png that just gets resized based on battery percentage. alogcat gives the following message when I switch back to the top-bar battery, maybe that would be somewhere to look in... (If I had root explorer I would look myself, but saving up for Pokemon Black and White means not as much money right now)

First off, credit to this post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1435484) which inspired the idea.
Took a while but i have all 6 images replaced. 4 in contacts and 2 in phone.
The colors based on the top image are:
Dark ICS Blue, ICS Blue (exact), Stock Android Green.
all versions come in each variant. with a total of 39 images to choose from.
Version 2.0 has versions that don't get cropped off by the OS in the phone and contacts display. see images below. if you download version 2 you still need to download the original if you want to use the metamorph.
There is a metamorph in the download as well as all of the images i've made. you can mix and match and take your pick of which ones you want.
INSTRUCTIONS & WARNINGS:
The metamorph by default uses the stock green android.
if you want another one, match up the image in the folder to the image in the morph.
YOU MUST BACKUP YOUR PHONE FIRST. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE.
YOU MUST RENAME THE IMAGE TO THE CORRECT NAME.
YOU MUST USE THE CORRECT IMAGE FOR THE CORRECT FILE.
DO NOT USE APPLY ALL. YOU WILL LOSE THE APPS. YOU MUST APPLY EACH INDIVIDUALLY!
If you try to morph both and you get an error with the phone, reboot and just do the phone. YOUR PHONE MAY REBOOT ON IT'S OWN. That is okay, it should boot up just fine with the replaced images now there.
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE YOU DO TO YOUR DEVICE IF YOU DO NOT FOLLOW DIRECTIONS. I WILL NOT HELP YOU IF YOU DAMAGE YOUR PHONE. IF YOU READ PROPERLY THERE SHOULDN'T BE ANY ISSUES.
If your afraid to use metamorph, or don't trust mine, and i won't blame you there, you should be able to use a root browser to make the changes.
Also, DO NOT UPLOAD THIS ANYWHERE ELSE. YOU DO NOT HAVE ANY PERMISSION TO EDIT OR REDISTRIBUTE THESE WITHOUT MY PERMISSION.
BUGS/ISSUES
If you haven't noticed, in the actual contact page, ICS takes a square image and just crops the middle. because of this the top and bottom of the image are cut off so you lose most of andy. Honestly, this is annoying enough as it is since i have 3 friends who's heads get cutoff because of this. I may go back and edit those images to have it so andy is lower and you can actually see his head. or better yet, maybe google will change the cropping stupidity of the new contacts app.
Images of them in use:

Looks good thanks!
Very nice
Thanks a lot for this!

your very welcome. I will be releasing a 2.0 version that will slim down the android for the call screen and the contact screen so you can actually see them better without as much being cut off. just going to take some trial and error until i get them just right.

make sure you reboot. They will both disappear after doing the morph, but after a reboot they should show up just fine.

Rebooted twice to make sure, it just wasn't working for me for some reason. I tried Metamorph one other time and it didn't work that time either, probably just me doing something wrong.

probably a dumb suggestion, but make sure you have root as well as superuser and busybox installed. only other things i can think of. And make sure your renaming them correctly.
if that doesn't work, then you should be able to use a root explorer.
*edit* i just morphed mine with the new images and lost both apps just like you. even though i'd done it twice before with no issues. so i'm going to assume this is a metamorph issue
*edit2* try doing just one at a time. just contacts and then just phone. i've tested a few times, and it only seems to break the apps if you do apply all.
------
Update on version 2.0. i'm 99% sure that i have them just right. used screenshots from the phone to rework the sizes. gonna test them on my phone now and if they're all good i'll finish up them all and upload them.
this version won't have a metamorph, it'll just be the images so you'll still need the original and then same as before, mix, match, rename.

I actually just put them together myself with APK multi-tool.. turns out that is a lot easier than I had previously thought. The images look great though, a big difference from those lame face things Google decided to use.
If you would like, I can push the old .apk's back and try Metamorph again doing it one by one? I did use the "apply all" function, which looks to be the culprit here.

if you got it to work with that then i'd say just keep it. in my tests it seems to be guaranteed that it's the apply all. since i've now done that twice, and both times lost the apps, but if i do them individually they've worked 4/4 now.
might go check out this apk mulit-tool for myself.

all i can think of is that i screwed up the XML file so it can't do apply all, or theres an ICS issue with metamorph.
thanks for the link!
You can make this thread like the softkeys thread?...different styles for us to choose..it will be much easier and clearer like that..
just a suggestion you know
Thanks alot for this mate

if i had the time i would but theres like 30 different combinations, and even more now that V2 is almost done.
it's not hard at all to simply pick your files and rename them, so i'll be leaving it as is for now.
speaking of Version2. i have one last test to make sure the conference picture looks good and then i'll be packaging and uploading.
i had a quick question/thought. okay so the original image is 360x360, but our display width is 720. this means that the images are being scaled, right? in other words, would using a higher res one be better?
i'm going to use the Android welcome guy from the setup as mine, and it has a res of 456x430. this means i could increase height (just add gray space) to 456. so 456x456 isn't much higher, but higher than 360. theoretically this would work, right?

yeah it's being scaled from 360x360 to almost 800x800 since it crops the outside. This is why i chose to go with the solid color versions since they'll still lose quality, but look decent, verses a real picture.
now as for your idea it's possible, in the past i've tried using larger images in the past and have caused apps to disappear, boot loops, or sometimes tons of force closes. maybe 2-3 times it worked.
For now, i've finished 2.0 so i'll be done with this, but if you can somehow get a larger one to work without issues, then maybe i'll go back and redo this. just make sure you do a backup otherwise you may be in for a really bad day.
-------
version 2.0 is finished. no more cropping. as i've said, you still need to download the original file for the metamorph, or if you want to use apktool, root explorer or something else, then just download the second file.

thanks for the quick response mate. also, good thinking regarding the backup. this is something i never do so i'll be sure to have a flashable ready to go should it bootloop on me. this will be something i tinker with when i get home so i'll report back on this as to whether using something higher res would/wouldn't work.

no problem. anytime you mess with metamorph make a backup. over the last two years on my nexus one i probably had over 50 issues with metamorph where if it wasn't for nandroid i'd have to wipe the phone and start over from scratch. it's a great program, but you make one little mistake with system apps and it brings big trouble.
looking forward to hearing your results. Now that i'm done with 2.0 i wish i could say i could take a break, but now onto homework.
--------
Version 2.0 released. 3 new screenshots showing the uncropped versions and a new download. As i've said, if you want to metamorph download both and then use the images from the second file. Make sure you do a backup, i'm not responsible for any damage or loss of data if you use metamorph and something goes wrong.
And don't forget to reboot.

I thought it would be grate to have a spot, were we clould ask questions to Clark44 about his Rom FreeGS3 v0.0.7 7-27-12
I am a realy Big fan since version 7 the Installer shows so much spunk!!!
I realy think keeping everything for Clark44 in one spot will help him in further creation of his rom.
After spending time with this rom all i can think about is how do I donate to keep it going?
I can not wait for the themes to come out for this Rom.
***First question Clark. May I use Setcpu and Ram Manager with your Rom?

goo rom manager question
I do not want to loose the abilty to save recoveries to my extSdCard. So I am afraid to switch from CWM version that i am using.
The question is, can we use the Goo Manager to download the zip then use the CWM to flash it ?
I am just not sure if it packed and repack the same way.
Youtube isn't working when I'm on the go, using my 3g. But it works fine when I connect to Wifi. Maybe I did something wrong or maybe it just my phone?
Clark44 never sleeps...he is a rom machine
I noticed on the messaging app that the vibration when silent option was absent with .7. I don't need my phone vibrating when I get texts with sound on so I was wondering if there was a way to get that back. Thanks.

No S-Voice options please
The installer is very cool. This is now my goto build for installing modems, I can install them at install then update PRL with one build.
I can't live with S-voice though, it just can't call the people I want and... don't get me started on it.
I hoped choosing not to install the removed Samsung apps would include S-voice but I still get it when I make a BT voice dial.
Is there any way to have the option to not have S-voice and use Google voice instead?
Thanks!
Thanks for posting this thread! I can't post in the dev forums yet (too new) so I had no way to get into the conversation.
I've got two questions.
1. Is anyone using JuiceDefender with this Rom? I'm used to it from my Samsung Galaxy Epic, but I wasn't sure if it's needed on this ROM. I like some of the features (Location aware Wifi, etc) but maybe not if it's sacrificing battery.
2. (For Clark) On version .8, is there any way to build in some of the color/theme options from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28676439 ? I'm not a big fan of green, so I would love to change the colors of the battery and the 15 toggles...

Well, I think it depends on how you use your phone. For me at least, JuiceDefender has helped out TREMENDOUSLY. I live in an area with bad reception and I'm constantly going in and out of roaming. Having all my data turned off while I'm not using the phone really helps boost my battery life (and not having to do so manually is worth the $5 in my opinion).
Without JD I'm at about 10-15% when I get home from work (10 hr work days). With JD I'm at about 30% when I get home.
I guess everyone's mileage may vary, but if you've already bought JD you might as well try and see if it helps your battery life.
side note: I also love the night tint in JD
I've actually got a couple of questions with this ROM.
First, though, I have to say this is a phenomenal ROM. I initially flashed it solely as a stop-gap while waiting for CM10 to come out for my Sprint GSIII, but it quickly has become my daily driver.
So with the installer on the 0.0.7 version, there are multiple radios. Is there any advantage in flashing one of those, or just leaving it be? Also I really like the CRT animations and beats audio, but it wasn't there in the 0.0.7 version, so I just went with 0.0.6. Is there a way to get it on the 0.0.7 version or have those features been disabled? I went off the video review on youtube, linked but for some reason, on my version, little to no features were on mine compared to the review video. Is there a way to enable them on the newest version? Thanks.
It got lost on the main thread, but awesome beats will be back in .8 (he forgot to put it in .7) and crt was broken by Samsung

Nice thread you guys have going on here
As for themeing. Let me explain how im going to have this system setup at latest by v0.0.9.
I've done some research and finally found an app that will do the following:
1. Notify when update is available
2. Allow user to download themes, bootanimations, apps, flashables, all within the app and all supplied by me.
3. Allow the user to read the changelog of upcoming buids on the go.
The link to this app is here
Now i already started migrating the boot animation option i already finished in Aroma installer into this app and that should be done very soon. Themers will also be able to send me whatever they make and i can make it an option in the app!
This will benefit us in the following:
1. Aroma installer stays and installs kernels, modems, and mods
2. ROM size doesn't go up to 2GB when i add in all the themes ect. (Size will always be around 860)
3. Users can change their theme and UI mods on the go without having to reinstall the ROM.
I'm trying to make customization available without having to reinstall the entire ROM. This will give us the best of both worlds.
I'm working on this as we speak so I might dissapear from XDA for a little bit while i stay on my train of thought But in spite of everything...this is going to get a whole lot better.

No on CRT, see back a page or two with a draft of the mods in next release.
The radio's are the different modems you can choose, there have been three releases (updates) and the original that came with the phone. That is what the radios are.

Are there any advantages/disadvantages in flashing a different modem to the phone? It seems to be a consensus that LF9 gives better signal, but I'm afraid for the drawbacks.
Downloading .8 now. Very excited.
Clark, I have a small request for .9.
Any chance you can add on my favorite bootanimation from my Samsung Epic days?
It's the third link found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1033274
(I'm also a big fan of the blue shutdown animation, but that's not nearly as big of a priority.)
Thanks!
I don't see the video icon when using Google Talk. I used to have it before I flash 0.0.8. Any ideas, I can get it back? Thanks

This thread was originally posted over on the Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 4 forums (links in my sig), and after a good deal of success on both devices, I decided (with a lot of nudging lol) to post this here in the Nexus 7 forums too. I own a Nexus 7 with PA 3.0 installed, and so I can test everything and so far have had no issues. Also, because of the different screen size of the Nexus 7, I think the icons are a little small. Others who've tried these on their N7 don't seem to mind, so please let me know what you think. If they're too small for your liking, I'll work on making them bigger. I'm ""trying" to keep one APK for each theme to work across all devices.
Many of you are like me and have been looking for 1% battery increments on the amazing Paranoid Android ROM. The devs have been working so hard on making the rest of the ROM great for us that they just haven't had a chance to add battery %. So I've made several themes for just that purpose! I know you can install one of thousands of themes out there that add battery %, but I have always been partial to the stock look of ICS and JB, so my themes will only add battery percent icons, nothing more. They apply via the built-in theme manager, so no flashing required! Just download the theme(s) you want from the attachments below and install/apply like always. Also, please swing by this thread and hit the thanks button on the OP, ATTACK. It's his icon pack that has made most of these (maybe all) possible, given my rather limited photoshop skills. He OK'd the use of the icons, but I'd like to give him "something" back.
I've got 14 themes now.

Each theme of icons can be installed side by side on the same device. This way, if you want to change between different icons, you have the ability to do just that, without uninstalling or reinstalling anything. Also, the battery icons in the screenshot are a little bigger than they are now. I had an issue where the icons were slightly larger than the surrounding icons, but that's fixed. I just need new screenshots..........
Disclaimers/Warnings:
*This is my first attempt at theming, but they have been running perfectly fine on myriad Paranoid Galaxy Nexus', Nexus 4's, and my own Nexus 7 (as well as some other N7's people have installed on) and I have had no actual problems in performance or function reported by anybody in either forum, besides the normal bumps in the road any mod/theme will encounter. However, if for some reason you run into problems (themes won't apply, tablet dies, ROM borked, dragons flying out of the charging port, etc... ), I am not responsible. I will help you however I can, though. I honestly can't think of anything this theme could do to your phone anyway, but you never know.
*MAKE A BACKUP! I know that sounds silly for a theme, but since this is my first try, I suggest you have a backup just in case. So far I've had a good bit of downloads and comments in the Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 4 threads, and I think it's safe to say its stable. Still, make a backup just in case.
*The theme works in all standard UI modes, (phone, phablet, various tablet) but I can't test every configuration out there. If you have issues let me know and I'll see if I can fix it.
*You will most likely get the "This theme is missing assets for your screen size" message, but hit apply anyway. Almost every theme I've ever seen throws this message, but it doesn't affect anything in these themes.
*It should work on each version of PA that comes out, but there is a chance something will change to break it. I'm really not sure. I'll test when each version comes out, until there's no more demand for this theme.
*These are designed for the Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 4, and now Nexus 7, each running Paranoid Android 3.0. However, I've had several reports that they work on other devices and other ROMs, so you're welcome to try it. PA is the only ROM it is being tested on, however.
Thanks for looking, and if anybody has any issues or requests, feel free to let me know!! Any and all feedback is welcomed and encouraged! Enjoy!

-Starting Nexus 7 forum at version 1.2, which is current as of 2/20/13

ICS Circle looks really good. Thank you for this! :good:
I've changed the OP in each of my threads now, cleaning them up just a little, mostly the previews and uploads. My themes are no longer hosted on XDA, but instead are hosted on my Dropbox account. This way I don't have to upload them in 3 different threads everytime I have a new one or make a change. It's more of a copy-paste deal now. This has done better than I ever really anticipated, and so I never really thought I'd have as much on the OP's. I was actually running out of upload slots in the original thread lol. I read that the limit on Dropbox accounts is 20GB/day so I really don't think this will ever reach THAT level of popularity (I think I figured it would take something like 1816 downloads on each theme per day to reach that traffic) but if anybody has issues with downloads, I'll find someplace else to host the files. Worst case, I'll go back to putting them on XDA as attachments and maybe get a mod to add a post or two for me at the beginning of the thread, since I didn't have foresight enough to reserve them. (doh!)
Thank you all for the kind words, feedback, and even requests! This has been an awesome experience for me, and I am excited to keep working on it, even as simple as these are! Those of you who have made requests that I haven't fulfilled yet, I am working on it. Just a couple out there I think.... Those that I haven't been able to fulfill your requests, I apologize. I am really still a noob here, but it's a great learning experience!!!

Sorry I took so long to answer, I've been working long hours but that's done now so I can finally catch up. I don't have any guides, what I did was download a theme that has EVERYTHING themed, decompiled it, and just started looking through the files. That taught me enough to understand the basics of what was going on, then I started Googling for specific questions. When I hit an impasse, I went to this thread for some help. The guys there were extremely helpful. After they got me started, I still had some issues but Google got me through those as well. If you have any questions I'm happy to answer what I can, but if you rank noobness from 1-10, 10 being expert, I'm still like a 2.5..........lol
To learn the battery icons you can decompile one of my themes and look at how it works. That is probably easier than trying to figure it out from scratch or looking at a full theme like I did. The soft buttons "should" work relatively the same. Let me know if you need anything!

OK, your digital theme is up in the OP now. Let me know if that's what you want. Also, what do you think of the charging animation? After I compiled it I think it may be a little too fast when it hits 100, so let me know if you like it or want it a little slower.....
Sorry it took me so long, been busy with work.
Bigger font?
Thanks for the great work. Could you tell me how to enlarge the font? I'm using the roboto one. The clock font is way bigger, if I could make them about the same that would be awesome.

To make them bigger the right way I need to remake the icons. I have a lot of work I'm doing this weekend on new themes and stuff like that, but I'd like to try and make those icons bigger too. I was copying the style on another theme and the text icons in it were a smaller size vertically than the others I've got, but bigger horizontally. I didn't want to mess up the horizontal spacing so I left it the same. I attached an older version to this post, the icons on this theme show up a little bigger than the newer version on the phone, due to a change I made. The actual icons are the same size, it's just the phone resizes them differently. That might work for you until I get the icons remade. You'll have to uninstall the version you have, then install this version. I don't think it will install over the other since it's an older version. Let me know what you think, though I still want to remake the icons.......

I'm the same way. I didn't think I'd like the digital theme, but I've been using it since I made it. Looks really good, IMO.

Thanks for the great work. Could you tell me how to enlarge the font? I'm using the roboto one. The clock font is way bigger, if I could make them about the same that would be awesome.

There are 2 new themes up in the OP, but one of them is a percent numbers theme. The look is very much like the Roboto theme, but bigger. Let me know what you think. I think it looks better.
If you guys can, I'd like for you to swing by this thread and hit the thanks button on the OP, ATTACK. It's his icon pack that has made most of these (maybe all) possible, given my rather limited photoshop skills. He OK'd the use of the icons, but I'd like to give him "something" back.
Thanks!
I keep getting this error when I try to apply

So I just had an epiphany. I was working on the new version of my Project Infinity Rom when I realized that I was building mods that are embedded into the system and does not give anybody a choice as to what they want. After I flashed the stock Tmobile odin image yesterday, I realized how incredible it felt to be on the stock solid base rom. With that said, I decided to instead of releasing versions of my rom, to just release all my mods as individual vrthemes or apps that should be able to be installed on any rom you choose. This is more or less a test to see how it goes but the goal would be to have a centralized directory of every,, single,, system modification for the Tmobile Lollipop firmware! Instead of downloading a huge rom and having to constantly update it etc, flash once.. download all the mods you want... flash and done! Welcome to build your own rom! It is a WIP but will be updating it within the next week or so with many more.
DEVS-
Free free to use whatever you want in anything you choose! Enjoy! Sharing is caring! Just give credit in op.
I also would just appreciate a pm to let me know so I can check it out but its not required

Known Bugs-
For some strange reason Tmobile removed the icon for themes and several others from the firmwares settings (? it was in the canadian and international variants, go Tmobile!) so it will show a white square. I will hunt down the resources and eventually update it in the next few days.

This is Awesome! Thank you I had been using your rom for a while & it was great! But I feel like you on this subject, thanks for all your time and effort
Great idea but won't you face possible issues with different mods making changes to the same file(s)?
Mod A changes something in SystemUI.apk
Mod B also changes something in SystemUI.apk but if these are independent of each other, wouldn't SystemUP.apk only show the settings from Mod B after Mod B has replaced the file?
I am not a dev so maybe I am off base here. Hopefully my thinking is flawed and this would work great. I love the idea for sure.
Thanks for your hard work and keep it up. !!!

Well once I actually start modding more than I am going to be using VRtheming. That should allow me to make changes to only one xml or small inside of an app instead of replacing the app itself. There will still be a few issues though such as the notification shades layout is in 1 xml file. I am just going to try and release various iterations of it with different layouts. If anybody wants to help and post some then please post and I will add them to the op. We can really just make this one enormous database of all the mods that can be done on the phone. Just click and flash.

Swell idea...once you get to vrtheming this will be the perfect bacon on top of rapture goodness
Now I rarely make requests in threads like this...but you think or can you look into multidpi or that is not in your radar? App setting was the only xpose module I ever used...[emoji24] now..now it's gone!

Yes of course eventually. I think I'm going to work on system ui mods first but I will try to mess Around with multi dpi eventually. It's on the to do list.
Great work!! The only system mod that I truly miss from Xposed is the home key not waking up, to me that is just a huge battery drain for me in a wallet case, actually when developers cook that in a ROM it just makes me do a happy dance!

You can try this but I actually did this for canadian variant. It will most likely break some of the tmobile stuff or cause boot loops. https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934555579
I will update it eventually. Just having a few issues with vrtheming like I planned to use so I may end up just releasing different versions of the apks. If anybody else knows how to mod system files than please post as well and I will add them to the op.

Downloading now....will try it and report back, if it does loop, hell that's what backups are for!
{Edit} Tested didn't get past the T-Mobile logo, restoring now, but thanks!
this is a great idea ...The developers do alot of hard woek for the community and i love all the work from all the devs but no matter what rom you run theres always a feature missing you had in your last favorite rom.. it would be incredible to work on a solid performing base rom and have all the features available as plug in zips that are flashed or reverted individually. then everyone would have their favorite features and THEIR perfect setup. its probably a nightmare for anykind of support but i love the idea you got going on here.. love the creative thinking
Multi DPI
I am not going to post this mod but I will say this Take a look at the coding for multi-DPI from xposed it can be implemented in the build prop. I am rarely on so I would not be able to field questions if errors occur. But it can be done. Just the same as Wanam Back button to kill all apps is implemented in roms as well
