Hi all,
Sorry if this has been asked before, but have been trying to get it working for a while lol. Im using Renovate rom atm, love it, but I would like to have live wallpapers, as they have been removed from the rom. I have managed to get some of the original lwp apk's from another rom, have moved them to system/app and changed permissions to rw-r--r--. This works for some, but not all, some arent even detected or dont work properly :/. Is there an easier way todo it?
Am i doing something wrong? Am i a fool?
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks
Leo

Hello all, I've been flashing my roms for a long time now, and I'd like to think I'm not much of a newbie here, but there is one thing that is ruining me. I've asked on the thread where the rom has been posted, but no answers.
The Rom in question is AuraxTSense 7.6.1.
Is there a way to get rid of all transparency and just have it look like Sense? (not that I want sense. LauncherPro is my cup of tea) but the transparency on the keyboard, the transparent dock at the top and the dropdown menu looking grey isn't to my fancy. So is there a way to get rid of all transparency? I haven't tried flashing "original theme" from the first page yet, but I will do if it gets rid.
Running NexTSense v6.0 atm and would love to upgrade to the newest version as I do like what Neo is doing with his roms. They are stable and not so battery hungry (that'll be another day to find out the best radio).
Thanks,
Dan

flash the original theme will get rid of the expressobar, flash a diffrent taskbar will get rid of the transparant taskbar and notifiction pull down, and use adb to remove and push the original htc_ime.apk to get the old one back, you could also make your own htc_ime mod at www.gimpsta.com and use that instead
Well flashing the original theme will get rid of it and return theme to stock sense(not espresso), but he states it is for 5.0, so if he have changed anything else in the .apk's it flashes, it might change other things. but i would say go ahead, make a nandroid and try it. Alternatively you could pull the the following from 6.0 and add them to a zip file:
- framework-res.apk
- com.htc.resources.apk
- Rosie.apk
- HtcLockScreen.apk
Those are the one's included in the original theme zip. (edit: also many of the widgets are edited, if you want to change back, pull those from 6.0 as well)
Btw. i love the transparency, and i'm using the rom myself. Only thing missing is transparrent message area, when pulled down. For the keyboard. Just use the "HTC ime mod" which is also included
Cheers for your help guys. I'm gonna check both of them out. Making my own keyboard seems a great idea because I have big thumbs and always hit the . button and would like to get rid of the language. Would be fun times. I do like HTC_IME Mod too tbh, flawless!

Well, I'd just like to confirm that all this worked. I got the AuraxTSense 7.6.1 and NexTSense 6.0 and took all the files out of the 6.0, put them in to a zip file with all of AuraxTSense 7.6.1 and flashed it (after doing Nandroid just incase).
Only thing is the Keyboard didn't get rid of the transparency, but seeing as their is the Multitouch Keyboard, as well as HTC_IME Mod, it's fine!

now this rom has this new file overlay system, you might just be able to replace the htc_ime.apk with the stock one using a file explorer
Hi everybody,
I've an Archos 43it and i want to customize it.
I've found a launcher, a theme, a custom bootanim, fonts... but for the framework, i need your help.
I was asking myself if ALL "framework-res.apk" are compatible with my version of Android (2.2.1)? And where can i find these ?
Thanks for your help and i'm sorry for my really bad english...
GOLLUM
Put the framework only if its said its compatible with your device, else dont cuz you will have to reinstall your rom or adb push the original framework into the device if you have backed it up.
hi all
i ported X-STRONGER 6.0 to our device
after the port i had 2 problems
1-i cant connect my phone to pc
2-camera is not working
after some works i solved the problem with the usb
but i need help with fixing the camera
Have you tried replacing the gallery2/4 app?
ok i have tested everything in the rom and there are 3 unfixed problems in it now
1-in lockscreen has a little problem(the camera button is a little down)
2-themes are not working(i dont know but they are not working on some other roms for me. maybe its my problem)
3-camera not working
i really need your helps and suggestion
im sure everyone will like this rom because its very fast. i had stable 250-80mg free ram with lupus 480p and 230+ free ram with lupus 720p(and it has many futures)
im doing all i can for this rom
gallery?
i will try it now
there were no gallery.apk or gallery2.apk but there was semcgallery3d.apk on both base and port
i replaced it but nothing happened
i fixed the problem of lockscreen
it was a problem with the main rom
he changed the lockscreen app to make a new style but it made that problem
so i changed it with aeonworld lockscreen app and its working correct now
im working on theme manager bug now for 90% i will solve it soon
update:the problem of themes are solved now. so only 1 more bug. the camera
i have a Little problem
there is and app in this rom named 3d album in this rom
but i cant find it in system/app
hoow can i remove that?
You can use catlog app to find source of errors with the camera. I'm assuming that you have checked the permission files in your base Rom to match the ones from the port.
well maybe the problem is with the permission
what i have to do exactly?
Check in system/etc/permission
Look for any that you might have missed...
Also check in system/lib/hw
Make sure you have a file in there
camera.semc.so
there is no camera.semc.so in both port and base
and no missed permission
i found that there is a folder in system/usr named semc in the rom im going to port but we dont have that on stock rom(and there is a folder named camera in that folder and there are some .dat files in it)
Try using those for the camera.
Some apps r hidden in /system/customization/applications I think, most OEM's put some apps here... Also if running windows do a simple index search for "camera" in most folders or system folder to find it
Sent from my R800i using xda app-developers app
i dont why but in windows 8 that thing is not working
and i used that files but they didnt help too
Did you try to install/replace camera.apk from another (stock gb) play rom?
im trying it now
i tough i have have done that before but i 90% i haven't now
sorry for my bad english
wow it worked
tnx to everyone that helped me here(i will give a credit every one on this thread)
the only things that i need to change is that to delete that apps then the rom is ready
im doing the final tests and i will release it as soon as possible
Howdy.
I'm a XDA noobee so sorry if this is not the correct forum or this has been addressed already.
Have unlocked and rooted my Nexus 7 2013 and loaded a nice custom ROM (Pacman) but it only has one live wallpaper option and I want my old stock live wallpapers back not playstore ones. How would i copy the old live wallpapers out of my stock rom and apply to this new one? I tried coping live wallpaper picker.apk and livewallpaper.apk and install in system/app with Root Browser, rebooted but did not work. Tried to make sure permissions were correct. Am I missing something? Do I have to install as a App or do I have to modify the stock livepaperpicker apk or existing single live wallpaper? When tried to side install as a app was told that it failed installation .
Thanks for your assistance! I have a lot to learn!

This is a cry for help, from me and the other NOOBs out here, new to the theming world with no idea where to begin.
I started out with a problem. I hate the UI on my Note Edge Lollipop, as compared to the stock Lollipop ASOP UI. I started about trying to change the entire UI (icons, menus, fonts, notification drawer, app drawer etc) to stock AOSP Lollipop UI. I am not rooted.
I AM LOST. No idea which guide to follow. Don't want to change my launcher. I would prefer not to root, would prefer not to void my warranty, would just prefer to screw around as less as possible while getting as close to stock Lollipop as possible.
And I know there are others around me. So here I am, on behalf of the noobs, requesting all experts to provide a starting point from where to begin changing the UI - completely, with as little messing around as possible. Not just to AOSP but to any other UI that someone else might prefer. Please explain this to us like we are 3 year olds.
1) Options for those who are Not Rooted.
2) Options for those who are Rooted.
Ps. This will not work if only the experts contribute. Everyone here who has something to contribute please do!
Ps. Mods I looked and searched for days. I know there are guides out there but I wanted something Note Edge and Lollipop specific.
As my contribution. I love the work that this Dev has done for the Note 4. But don't know if this will work on our devices. Also Im not rooted yet.

The new TouchWiz on the S6 has themes. Pray that they port it over to us and any other features it has like they used to do before with those Experience updates during the S3 and Note 2 periods...
Mate, there isn't actually a lot you can do for theming without rooting your device. Most themes replace icons in the system files which is impossible to access without root or without being officially supported by Samsung...
The only real way to theme your un-rooted Note Edge is to change the launcher and theme that...
My wishes seem to have been answered within a week. The new Samsung themes app is all we need. Let's hope we get it fast.

Lollipop Touchwiz Theme
Here is themes app for Lollipop touchwiz http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/themes-apps/touchwiz-theme-lollipop-note-4-t3037891. I tryed and it worked. Just don`t flash the zip (that makes your touchwiz home to FC). Just extract the zip and copy all content of zip`s system folder in your devices system folder as it is in zip, except Toucwiz home. Reboot and all done. Now you can change touchwiz themes as you like

So, does your edge notifications still work?
I tried to get a few things changed but after messing with my system folders I lost all edge notifications...
I also opened the system file, did you realise you're installing Apex launcher onto your Note Edge? I already own the pro version of this. In the System>App folder it actually says Apex Pro meaning this could be considered as Warez, if it actually is the pro version...

Yes, notifications works just fine. And i noticed that Apex launcher too. I deleted it so i doesn`t have any clue is it pro or not. I`m not the developer of this, I just pointed you out how you can use themes

The contacts, mms, and settings zips all work on N915G NK4 KITKAT. Framework zip makes xpossd and some modules FC.
