replace system ui of stock rom with custom rom ui. - Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers

Hi,
This is a question as well as a suggestion
We p2 users have been bugged with issues or missing features in all custom roms which are not present in stock firmware.
Now my question/suggestion is can we not take the stock firmware with all features enabled and remove all unnecessary apps then replace the entire stock ui with that of custom ROM like resurrection remix or xenon hd or what ever we want?!

Id you find a workaround let us know. I don't have any idea if we can

Even I am wondering about the same thing
I think I can swap the framework.apk and related files and then may need to edit some of the dependencies to apply the changes. Of course this has to be done in the ROM zip file.

Uh I don't see the point actually you're basically referring to a deodexed, debloated ROM with a nova launcher.
Sorry if I got your question wrong. This is what I was able to make up from it.

You are partially correct. But the problem lies in customisation. You see, I am a big fan of extreme customisation. I want to customise the rom entirely. For that, we need either a completely integrated theme engine like miuu or substratum. As you might know, substratum has issues in stock vibe hi.
And xposed is not working for n. Now you tell me what else to do for this.!!!

[13 Mar 2012] Stock MIUI (Very Stable) [cLK/MAG]

Stock MIUI (Very Very Stable)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This rom is modified from MIUI android to work with clk bootloader. Please give MIUI Android all the credit.
Converted from the latest MIUI available 2.3.9
The goal of this thread is for two things. I have one main goal, STABLILITY. I will keep all roms I create. Their currently are two versions.
-Stock- I will keep up to date with MIUI and release CLK versions to accompy their magldr versions. The stock rom will stay stock, that means no changes!
-Tweaked- The tweaked rom will offer things more towards my preferance, or possibly by request. Currently the only difference between Stock and Tweaked is in the tweaked version MIUI launcher has been removed and replaced with Go Launcher. If you would like to see something included in this rom, please post.
(tweaked version is currently discontinued)
Features of Stock MIUI
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-A2SD
-Rooted
-Android 2.3.7
-Deodexed

MIUI has many neat features.
1. Long press on the toggle switch will take you to that options settings.
2. Secrecy mode disables text, and call logs to let someone look at your phone.
3. Holding the home key on the lock screen activates the flash light.
New MiUi means wat d features?

thanks for this one, works nicely.
will stick with it for now..
Just a head's up - for those of you who like as much internal space for apps as possible, a 150/5 partition is more than sufficient to run this ROM, considering the extracted /system size is about 137MB.
I used that size, worked fine for me.

No worries bud, we all have to start somewhere.
A good measure of what partition size you need is by checking the extracted size of all the files going into the /system partition in your ROM zip (usually just the "system" folder in a ROM zip file, but could include other directories, depending on how the ROM installs), and then rounding up to the nearest multiple of 10.
In other words, if I built a ROM, and saw the extracted "system" directory (and/or any other directory being extracted to /system) in the ROM works out to be around 173MB, I'd recommend using a 180MB partition for /system.
Keep up the good work, really useful to have a CLK version of MIUI.
MrP.
Sorry for a noob question
But can we have a link to all the included apps with the basic MIUI ROm?

What exactly are you asking? Are you wanting to know what apps are included or are you wanting to download the apps to another rom?
I can extract the apps, but I can't guarantee they will work on anything but this system.

I don't quite get what you're looking for, please explain it a bit further.
If you're asking where to find the standard MIUI apps to add to this ROM, then you must have missed in the OP that no changes have been made, and hence all the standard included apps are in this ROM already.
Alternatively, if you want all the basic MIUI apps for something else, why not just download the ROM, and extract those you want from the ROM zip?
Sorry if I don't quite get what you meant.
MrP.
EDIT: kylew1212 beat me to it.
This rom was for personal use. But I use this rom, with a little tweaking. I use go launcher so that my home screen isn't cluttered. Would anyone be interested in a miui version with a little tweaking? I will keep the stock one but I may build a tweaked version. Let me know if interested.

Firstly, thanks, i'd like to have it untweaked. Stock is Stock. Ya we al may do without that Xiaomi account
color branding
I have a question for you all, hoping I can solve this, finally...after months.
I am using MIUI for months now, with Tytungs r14 kernel. (also tried Dorimanx kernel, but that one has the same issue)
This solves the majority of the color branding issues, but you will get a 'full' fix upon changing the MIUI launcher settings to 'hi-res', which massively destroys the smoothness of the scrolling.
MIUI themselves say it can't happen, though I still have this g**damn color branding issue, when not using hi-res scrolling. There has to be something in that launcher (with other launchers like adw, go launcher, launcherpro, this can be simply fixed by completely disabling the scrolling cache in those settings) to fix this.
Does anybody know how to do this with the MIUI launcher? I love MIUI, but I want something that looks 100%, and i can't live with the color branding stuff (as it also shows in the wallpapers).

This is a completely stock rom. The reason I say it was made for my personal use is because I prefer Clk over Magldr. MIUI only publishes a Magldr version. I converted this Magldr version (for my myself) to clk. I changed nothing else. It is completely stock except now it works on two bootloaders instead of one. I uploaded the original(magldr) and my own(clk).

Honestly I'm not sure what color branding issures are.. Is that like lines going through the screen at random times?
Also have you tried newer versions of MIUI? Possibly they fixed this unknowingly? Sorry I'm not very much help on this at the moment..

I will look some examples tomorrow and show you what I mean.
Don't be sorry, buddy
I managed for now with the hi res setting and it is not as choppy as it used to be. But in hopes to fix this, I will get back to you on this. Thanks for replying!

I don't want to promise you anything because I don't know if I can fix it or not. I'm starting to work on porting MIUI 4.0 to the HD2. If I get a bootable version I will upload it.

[Q] Getting AOSP Lockscreen

I've almost got everything perfect on my new Note 10.1 but I wanted to use the AOSP lockscreen instead of the stock one. Mainly because Xposed modules modify AOSP instead of Sammy's lockscreen. Anyone know how to do that on this device. I'm using clean ROM and I'm not exactly expecting a lot of development for this device so waiting for a ROM that does this out of the box just wasn't something I'd want to do. I'm OK with modifying files myself since that's probably what I'd have to do. I'm just not sure where to start.

Aosp lockscreen on TW 4.4

Hi guys! I searched everywhere but i can't find a good way to have the aosp lockscreen on stock 4.4. The various apps from play store are always with some kind of different bug, so i was searching for a mode to use the original aosp without bug or problem with double lockscreen.
I even looked for a xposed module, but i didn't find anything...
Anyone who can help me?
Someone?
I don't think it's possible due to the library files.

Thanks, but a friend of mine has the s4 with a stock based ROM, and i'm sure he can use the aosp lock if he want... (He can choose it with aroma)
Maybe with the right libraries it can work even for us, no?

Ah yeah, it can, but I never used AOSP ROMs so I know pretty much nothing about how they work, so I can't help here.

wifi Roms for SM-T807P

Hello XDA!
I recently purchased a SM-T807P (10.5" LTE/Snapdragon) with the intent to use it as a wifi device.
Will anyone tell me which roms work with this device? I've heard the challenge is to find a snapdragon rom?
Its rooted with TWRP on it already. Just need some tasty roms to play with.
If there is ANY way to get cyanogenmod on it that would be my first choice (I would even be willing to offer a bounty!)
I am already running the only one I could find specifically for SM-T807P.
[ROM][TW][SM-T807P Snapdragon] SuperSkilled Basic ROM V1 + Firmware
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/development/rom-superskilled-basic-rom-v1-t3055473
I'm glad to find a custom rom, but am really for a lollipop de-bloated rom.
But ANYTHING that people have tried so far would be great.
OR anything that I should try that wont permanently brick my new tablet!
Thanks all!
Now you have twrp just make a full backup before you go messing and you'll never have to worry about bricking your tablet.
As for roms, pretty much all roms are based on stock, so just modify yours as you see fit.
Debloat, add mods, etc.

Considering that I am using a snapdragon version of this tablet maybe you could point me in the right direction about which roms work for that processor versus the other?
I know one of the issues was finding a rom that had the right kernel for my tablet.
No the kernel isn't the issue. Its that the t807p is partitioned differently than what the available ROMs are compatible with. I have the same tablet and as awesome as it it, there is very little support for it. No developers have it and its very difficult to work with without owning one.
There is twrp available which I assume you have used and rooted. There is a stock ROM on XDA that is lollipop that works awesomely. I just debloated it myself and tuned it with kernel tuner with stock rooted options. Xposed won't work without a deodexed rom either which is not available. But regular root options and a different launcher (I use nova) and i have it running pretty damn smooth.

I flashed the only KK ROM I found and got FC's to no avail. I then basically wiped the whole thing then odin'd to lollipop. I am stock now and you're right, it's a damn nice device. -- I wouldn't mind de-bloating it myself, do you by any chance have the 'safe list' to reference as far as which apps are good to go. Last thing I wanna do is get rid of some odd-ball system file that creates hell for myself.
Thank you
Just make a backup first with twrp before you go messing then use system app remover to debloat or just freeze with titanium backup . If you get an issue after removing something you can easily restore it.

No problem. First off, listen to everything xda senior member ashyx says. I have been dealing with my rooted t807p for a while and I have found all his posts on the tab s not just accurate, but extremely useful.
here is a post regarding safe apps to uninstall: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/help/list-bloated-apps-to-uninstall-sm-t700-t2861180
Now what I have personally taken off my tab s has been the superficial apps. The magazine apps, office apps that I have no use for, While a lot of apps on the post may be safe to delete, it doesnt mean you should if you plan on using your tablet for wireless transfers, casting and what not. I prefer not to touch many of the "behind the scenes" apps. And also it depends on why you are debloating. Are you looking for more storage space? or for better ram and performance? Unfortunately, at least for my use, you wont save much storage space by deleting apps. But freezing them and playing with it makes a big difference. On just a standard recent apps clearing and maybe a push of my "fast reboot" app, and I can get my RAM to run at around 900mb and little battery drainage.
I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions, I have played with my t807p for quite a while with rooting and have learned pretty well what works and what doesnt. I am no developer like the senior members on here but there aren't many people with our specific tab s.

I realize it's been a year or more, but do you have a link to the Lollipop ROM for T807P? I've tried the "SuperSkilled" ROM but it was KitKat. I looked for a Cyanogen build for this tablet but no luck. Looking for any ROM that's close to AOSP or at least debloated and is Lollipop or MM.

REQ - OxygenOS 3 launcher

Would the oxygenOS launcher be able to be installed on custom roms because it is so far my favoourite thing about the phone, if so could someone post the APK please
Thanks
James
No, it's not possible as far as I know.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9ufl4TwjDDqdXhZZDNEUWJtZ1E/view?usp=drivesdk
But i'm not sure if it works on custom rom
It is possible if someone puts in time and effort to see what additional libs it needs and I suspect the framework will also need editing as well.
