This past week i have been learning mostly about theming, using apk manager, and using sdk tools and i already have a custom rom that still looks like stock, but has the init.d tweaks, build prop tweaks, its debloated, it has the sony bravia engine and also working mms thru wifi, but im trying to figure out how to add the advanced power menus, the 14 toggles, and xloud into it. Would anyone in here help me? I would really appreciate it and after i get those Mods into my custom rom, next would be the basic theming which is kinda easy but messing with the .9 images and patching it is what looks to be the hardest part from it all because i havent tried messing with that part yet.

14 toggle mod--> look for the mod on the I727 forum, then add it to your rom. It's that simple.
extended power menus--> same thing, it's a mod somewhere on XDA. Just make sure you get a version that works for the rom you're building
theming-->you are on the right track
Thanks for the advice Alienz

The 14 toggle mod from the I727 will work on GB roms but not on the new ICS roms...
The power menu mod needs to be incorporated into your framework..
Yeah the rom is based on 2.3.6 gingerbread and i have just put the 14 toggles not that long ago and its working perfectly. The advanced power menus i havent found yet ive been searching the forums but cant seem to find it. Today i was doing the theming but those .9patches gives me nothing but problems. I did a few .9 pngs but when i compile it back (systemUI.apk) it doesnt seem to save and gives me errors. I probably seem to know what i did wrong so later on i'll be working on it!

The only thing I can think of, is asking one of the Devs with that function already implemented into his/their ROM.
He/they should be able to lead you from there!

UPDATE: i have xloud working, gps locks quickly, i have bravia engine in it which made vids look better and clearer, i have the 14 toggles, mms over wifi is fully working, and the UI and scrolling is fast! If im missing anything else let me know. What i need to implement is the advance power menus but i still at this point cant find it anywhere. Then whenever i add the power menus mod next would be the theming which im really not good at because im having a lot of trouble on the theming part.

-You need a xml editor for this. Something like Notepad++
-This mod is untested because I dont have the device at the moment.
-Make a backup of your current framework-res.apk and Systemui.apk files
-After 2 weeks I believe I found all of what I need for this MOD after going through the framework and Systemui of my Galaxy Nexus
-This did work on my Galaxy Note
-Please try at your own risk
How To
1. Decompile the framework-res
2. In the values folder you will find bools.xml
3. Open up the file and search for "config_showNavigationBar"
4. This should be false, change it to True
5. Open up the dimens.xml and search for "navigation_bar_height"
6. Change the value there to either one of these because im not sure how it would look (25, 30, 35)
7. Recompile your framework-res.apk
8. Extract or Decompile the systemui.apk
9. Navigate to the drawable-hdpi folder
10. Download these NavBar_Icons images and place them in that folder
11. Zip or Recompile the systemui.apk
(OPTIONAL)
After completing the above
Disable the light on the capacitive touch keys(Home-Back-Menu-Search)
1. Decompile the framework-res.apk
2. In the values folder you will find arrays.xml
3. Open that xml and search for "config_autobrightnessbacklightvalues"
4. Change all values to 0
5. Recompile the framework-res.apk
Thanks!

I'll be honest. I like the very clean transparent look of everything, the transitions throughout the launcher are very nice, and it ran smoother than anything else has on 4.0.4, even Nova, Apex, or Trebuchet. Still went back to Apex as I just like the options in it the most.

For what it's worth, in my opinion the OP should be given an infraction for posting this app without doing any sort of research as to the original developer to give proper credit, and then asking for thanks clicks for doing nothing.

Used this link instead, was gonna post in that thread but its acting weird, other than that, its probly the smoothest launcher i've used in a while, only problem is the lack of features
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA
I like that he added badges for missed calls, texts, and emails on the dock and obviously how smooth and clean looking it is/the transitions are.
The things I don't like are the size of the dock and dock icons (makes my screen area look smalllll) and I can't live without my double tap to expand notifications. Other features I'd like to see is scrollable dock, ICS style folders, and custom icon support.

4/17 - I've now updated it to a flashable zip, you get the S4 launcher and S4 weather widget
I love AOSP roms for the customizability and I also really like the touchwiz launcher so after many, many trials and errors and having to learn how to use apktool to decompile and build apk's i've modded the touchwiz launcher to work for AOSP roms. I know this isn't anything new since it's been done before, what makes this different is the homescreen is a 4x5 layout and the app drawer is 4x6 with a fully themed S4 Accuweather widget. I know a lot of you use custom launchers and this is not your cup of tea, this is for those who like the look of a stock launcher with a custom aosp rom.
The S4 weather widget really gave me a hard time, and because I was just learning it took me a very long time to get it to work but i've finally figured it out and it should work without any problems. Please note that in order to avoid a widget display problem I had to make the widget thumbnail in the app drawer transparent. It shows up just fine once you apply it.
I'll welcome any feedback and all I ask for is a thanks if you like it.
This should be compatible on any AOSP, CM10.1 based roms. I am personally using LiquidSmooth stable version.
Please make a backup and use at your own risk
Installation instructions:
Download Link
It's now flashable!
Copy to SD card
Flash in recovery
Reboot and enjoy!

I'd like to give credit to dr30ma for the original s4 weather widget for the I9300 from which I ported over to work with our device. Also, thanks to Andybones for the universal flasher tool I used.

S4 SecLauncher finished
Wasn't too bad porting the s4 launcher to work. I'm using a TW rom at this very moment so i'm unable to test it on an AOSP rom so if I have any volunteers i'll post the link to the launcher. If you've already installed the launcher from this post then you will just replace the SecLauncher2.apk in /system/app with this one. Rename your original something like SecLauncher.bak just in case you wanna go back to it you could just rename it back to original. This one also has a 4x5 homepage and a 4x6 menu layout.

Don't forget to remove the "s4" from s4SecLauncher2.apk after you copy it over or else it won't work.
Apologies if this is a dumb question but will this give me the Touchwiz dialer or gesture control, like swiping with the hand to screenshot? I'm also using Liquidsmooth and those are the only things I really miss.

No, it just gives you the launcher and weather widget. Although I'm also on liquid smooth and I installed it like it says in the op, and whenever I try to open touchwiz it just forces close on me. Fixed permissions, cleared caches, still the same result.

I know what's happening...I forgot to include the badgeprovider.apk which notifies you when you get a text and you'll keep getting force closes without it. I'll upload it here in a second. Just push it to /system/app and fix permissions, and reboot and you'll be good to go. I'll fix the original package and upload it seperately for you so you don't have to download the whole thing again.
Download BadgeProvider.apk
Almost forgot to mention, this will just fix the s3 launcher force closing not the s4 launcher. Still need time to figure it out the s4 launcher on AOSP, works fine in Touchwiz.
Does anyone know a way to change the status bar/WiFi/signal bar/battery color without using the xposed framework? I'm saying this because when I tried it on the latest CM 10.1.2 Stable build and the phone became barely usable as the performance went to crap. Also it couldn't change the battery color. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

No unfortunately I don't think there is a way to do this 'on the fly'. Its going to involve decompiling the apps and changing icons, adjusting colors, etc.
Like I said, its been a long time so its probably more involved now, but when I last used it, it actually was pretty quick and simple. Probably the fastest and easiest way you will find. Unless something new is out that I don't know about...
