[JB-4.2] GB Theme Remover & Facebook Sync

Hi everyone
I ported two little mods to the latest JB 4.2. They have been tested on the stock odexed ROM but they could work on a deodexed one ^_^
- GB Theme Remover removes the Gingerbread "theme" from all the old apps and displays them with the Holo (4.0+) one. The mod was originally ported by lippol94 to 4.1. Just flash the zip.
- Facebook Sync makes you sync your FB contacts with the built-in People app.
How to:
- Delete the FB account
- Flash the zip
- Go to Settings, Applications, Contacts Storage and delete its data (make sure you have synced your contacts before doing this...)
- Open the Facebook app and as soon as you enter your login, it should ask you to sync.
Hope they are useful ^_^

Not sure what I done wrong when I tried using this on mmuzys 4.2 gave me a boot loop. Had to reflash OS rom.
Would love to try this mod though.

Looks interesting. What exactly does the first mod do?

You should make a zip themer mod for the GB remover so anyone can use it in any custom Rom
If you don't know how just give me all the png's in a zip file and I'll do for you

Nvm.......

Since the GB remover mod replaces the framework-res.apk in the system
I think you will get boot loops if you flash it
As for the Facebook sync mod I don't know

Works on any 4.2 ROM?

I think only on stock 4.2 because it changes the framework
So I don't think it will work with ROMs like FNV but if he gives me the images I will make a zip themer mod

There are no images. Changes are made to XML files.

Well do you know which XML files?
Because those can be replaced with zip themer as well

Its replacing Styles.xml which cannot be zipthemer'd. Framework has to manually be decompiled and modded.

Don't do this if you don't know anything about it.
I did this on my galaxy nexus with xenonhd running on it and it didn't end well. After I rebooted it diden't sync anything anymore now I have to completely reflash everything again

As I said it's just for 4.2 ROMs... and probably as I learned these days, only for the stock ROM because Android checks for the signature of framework-res and a lot of apks in /system/app. They must match or the OS won't even boot. These mods keep Google's signature so the only ROMs which work are Google-signed ones.

I got a boot loop on aosp r5.

Initial Onsies:
- Fast, and slim
-Mobile data does not work yet, even after reboot
-DPI on on trebuchet launcher is slightly off on the
-Flash gapps of course
-To others: do not flash a kernel with this as you'll need a 4.2 base [I didn't flash, but that's experience talking]
-CM based, so expect CM features / interface
-Besides mobile data, working well, it sees 2.4/5 GHz bands on wifi
-You can swipe to the different screens on lockscreen; camera isn't installed, so working on that real quick
- * External sd is not detected
Stay tuned
* You can find the internal Storage at /storage/emulated/Legacy/0
The data mount is screwy..

Well in the noticeable red text in the OP, it clearly states its an alpha, synonymous for WIP.

[script] Xtive JetLauncherv4(beta) Pseudo-ProjectButter(optional Seeder)

I'm still quite frustrated coming up with a decent name, if you have any nice suggestions do PM me.
I was experimenting some short cuts to battery saving so I reconfigured my build.prop
I put at least 3 nights into this thing not including time used to experiment around!!!
So If It really does help, please click Thanks
​
Majorly speaking, I am still an inexperienced script kiddie.
But I do like to experiment on my phone a lot.
I'll go straight to the point now.
Disclaimer: I am not responsible for any phone bricking, and by applying this script requires root access which means that your warranty is already voided.​
The purpose of this build.prop update is that it saves battery yet increase responsiveness when used such as screen scrolling and stuff.
All the values and lines is not original, someone used them, I just modified so that I think it fits our device the most.
I checked and it seemed that all the remaining stuff in it is compatible with ICS.
I enabled most of the hardware rendering so that when its running it will sort of run turbo or something, at least at the launcher it did.
Again I must inform I am still inexperienced but all the things I experimented on worked on my device.
Requirements:
Device: Samsung Galaxy W or any Qualcomm Devices
Recovery: CWM 5/6
ROM: Rooted Android based OS
Kernel: Doesn't matter
Works well with: Seeder(works well with anything anyhow )
Installation step-by-step:
Download the Latest .zip below this post
Then Save the file into your sdcard
BACK UP FIRST
1. Boot into CWM
2. Apply XtiveJetLauncher.zip
3. Wipe Dalvik cache
4. Reboot!
5. Watch phone Fire Up
X. Only use the QC 2.2 if your phone stucks at bootanimation.
We now have flashable version for ALL
These are lines which are already inside your build.prop by default(refered to arco's cm9) but replace values with these new ones.
Code:
dalvik.vm.heapsize=48m
dalvik.vm.dexopt-flags=v=n,o=a,u=y
Enjoy.
Please give me lots of feed back so that I can improve.
Changelogs:
V1.0 - V2.0: Alpha stage unreleased.
V2.1: Initial Release
V2.2: Added Network Codes
V2.3: Added Replaceable Codes
V3.0: Categorized Codes
V3.1: Codes added
Renamed Xtive JetLauncher
Xtive JetLauncherV2: More awesome codes
V3 is out! Now with optional seeder. Fixing the codes that might stop data connection

nah, but just repeating those lines will do nothing. Go to your build.prob and remove them, then flash if you really want to.
Just to be more specific (if i am not already) they are the same exact line, with no values changed. But a version that adds them without effort (because copy and paste is an effort lol)

I'm not too sure I follow, your question is?
If you're saying the differences between V2.1 and V2.2 its only those replaceable lines.
If you're saying about the zip files, I didn't upload then, 7amada100 made them(thanks), but something inside did not work that's all.
I'll try to make a flashable zip shortly. For now please continue using the manual method.

Status update:
So, I spent past couple of hours trying to port the recent apps mod to the PA and CM but it didn't work out :crying:
I was able to do the changes and compile the SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk but when I flash the zip, the SystemUI just keeps crashing on the boot..
"SystemUI has stopped working."
I was using this guide:

Well, this guide has some problems..
It says:

There is no such folder "layout-port" in res..
Then I checked OPs mod which he supposedly created using the same guide...I decompiled his SystemUI.apk but guess what...there wan't any "layout-port" either...
Then I thought that I should change that in the "layout" folder itself...(and later I found out that the OP has done the same)
But still..no gain Force Closes everytime
There was one more problem that there wasn't any id "android:id="@id/recents_clear" in the ids.xml..but I solved that problem.
I can upload the zip which force closes if anyone wants to test stuff too

The think is that in layout and layout_land you need to remove the whole code and paste his...the thing is that if you compare the 2 codes you can see that alot of change in recents code but you remove alot of code existing..im pretty sure thats causing the FC's i try with a guide for 10.1 and i still have this problem...systemui refuse to load even when the phone reboots properly..so maybe if we exclude the fact that we can copy and paste...the code there is old and cm has added a lot of stuff in it after that...so we need someone who knows to check the code and apply it to a newest version of cm...
and remember those guides are for cm if your trying to do it on a PA or SLIM or anyother heavy tweaked rom you will mess a hell lot more things!

Navigation bar on stock Rom

Guys how to enable navigation bar on stock odex Rom 4.2.2?
I used gravity box and Modaco tools and both are giving error as 'system ui has stopped' and blank statusbar after reboot
Then I tried build.prop edit and even I landed on same error
Anybody has tried? If so could give a proper way to enable it thanks.

sir i also tried it once but had same fate as your's
i think we can only have it only in custom roms like pac rom or aokp or cm

I tried even on stock based custom ROMs but no results...this can be done only on cm or pacman ROMs as u said.

I think I had to decompile SystemUI.apk and add/edit something like
<item type="drawable" name="tw_navigationbar_bg">#FFRRBBGG</item>
then adding/editing the line in build.prop didn't cause FC and gave me nav bars.
I did this a long time ago I can't be sure that's all I did, but it was something along those lines. I'm sure there's a method available on xda to enable navbar on samsung 4.2.2 by now

Yes and the systemUI needs to be decompiled, edited and recompiled into an apk to stop the force closes on stock ROM with nav bar

I also tried many things on stock to enable navbar but no use.
I also watched a few videos on youtube and for them it was working on stock but i made the same changes in build.prop but every time the same error, dont know why.
So now i'm on CM11 and using navbar, I dont know what the problem is but i'm sure some devs will soon be able to solve this.

I came across this while browsing through XDA, Ultimate Dynamic NavBar
Since there is no available mod for stock ROMs for our device, it would be easier to rely on this App/Xposed module to enable Nav Bar in your phone. It also offers several customization options along with themeing the icons visible in your navbar.

I've used this one but the stock navbar is better coz it works well with the UI.
But i've seen a few videos, you can also check them out on youtube, the guy made changes in the stock rom in build.prop by adding qemu.hw.mainkeys=0, restarted and voila he got the navbar. I just wanna know how?

That works most of the time, specially in AOSP ROMs, but unfortunately simply doing that in most new Samsung 4.2.2+ firmware causes SystemUI to crash.
From what I know, this happens because our SystemUI was not designed to support a NavBar so when the android system allots the lower space to the Navbar (after editing build.prop) the SystemUI tries to redraw over/with it and fails, causing a FC. Therefore, something like the line I mentioned in one of my earlier posts is required in the drawables of SystemUI.apk before Navbar can be used on stock.
"<item type="drawable" name="tw_navigationbar_bg">#FFRRBBGG</item>"
Fortunately for us, we now have Xposed, which enables us to edit system apks without actually modifying them. So in my opinion it's easier to simply make/use a mod for enabling this feature in SystemUI.apk rather than making a ROM-specific mod for enabling it.
