So Ive been flashing different roms and getting a feel for things and I must say I love the different ways you can customize the notification bar with different battery icons and clock icons... My question is, is it possible to do this on the stock gingerbread rom? I went back to my stock rom from my back up and I Just wanted to know if its possible to flash these kind of things and also maybe flashing certain keyboards instead of downloading from the play store. So yea just wondering if its possible.

Hello, i just have a couple questions about my phone.
I flashed over to ACS ICS and i tried a few different roms. my issue is that no matter what rom i flash to every theme changed but the dialer/contacts are always stock.
could it be the launcher it comes with? I just don't want to use Go Contacts.
Any help would be great!
any theme you flash has to be ei22 compatible (you mean ACS ICS v4 right?)
Otherwise you'll have alot of issues.
There are not many themes out yet because of how new ei22 is, but there are some, and more coming.
After re reading your post, I see what you mean, but the same rule will apply, from what I understand anyway.
Hi,i've searched the web and xda for a mod to show the battery percentage on the stock 1.29 ROM.Does anybody has a mod like this?I don't want to install another ROM on my HOX for now,i want to remain with the stock one.I have a rooted 1.29 stock.Can anybody help?Thank you.
There are a gazillion apps that do this.... One such app that has a beautiful widget as well is the "BATTERY WIDGET by ELVISION"... Check it out....
Ok,i didn't explained verry well what i wanted.I don't want a widget,i want a mode so the battery icon from the notification bar can show me my percentage.I am allready using UCCW but i want a mod for the notification bar on top(or status bar,however it's called).

If your rom is completely stock (odexed) you will probably find that no-one will make a battery mod for this as the work involved is many times greater than making one for a de-odexed rom.
Hopefully, the uot kitchen will add hox support very soon as I also prefare the stock, rooted route.
Perhaps in the meantime you could try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1648527 which you can install many created battery percentage mods on.
I did search and find threads about this, but they didn't answer the question so I thought I'd post again.
I'd like to mod the softkeys, but I don't want to ditch stock because I want to use Jelly Bean when it get's here and not go through the hassle of new roms and reloading data, ect.
I found some old mods from back in Jan/Feb, but I'm not sure if they would still work on 4.0.4.

Any Advice here?
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 2 (from Rogers) (SGH-I317M) on 4.1.2. It's a stock ROM.
Rooted with SuperSU.
I am looking to change a few things. I would like my status bar to be transparent, I would like the home button to not turn on the screen. I have seen those done but I am not sure where to begin and if they work on my version of the Note 2.
I don't want to use a custom ROM. I like how my phone is now, just those few things. Help?

Stock ROMS are more difficult to theme because they are odexed. If you want to theme things like the notification bar, you should consider flashing a ROM that is de-odexed. Most modified and costom ROMs are de-odexed. There are a lot of ROMs out there and it took me a long time to learn to navigate through them all. For a good beginner ROM I would suggest trying Skynote or Jedi X15. These ROMs were build by recognized developers and have a high level of maturity. If you want performance, Jedi X15 is hard to beat. Skynote is very smooth and stable and has less bells and whissles (which sometimes confuse those new to the modified ROM world. Both of these ROMs are considered "modified" because they are based of the stock ROM. Later, you may want to venture into the "custom ROM" arena. Custom ROMs come with much more in regards to features, battery life, and performance. However, navigating the custom choices can be a little bit of a challenge for someone new to the market, but the custom ROMs offer so much more than the modified ROMs.
Does anyone have a working link to a stock EVO 4G stock ROM that can then be used to update to the latest stock ROM+radios+whatever? I've been searching around here and the Internet in general, but I'm having trouble wading through the sea of dead links to stock ROMs and links to ROMs that have been hacked to remove radios and whatnot.
I've been using the last good Evervolv JB ROM and it's just too unstable, and my radios and stuff are probably out of date too, so I'd like to try going back to stock for a while.
Note regarding root: It would be nice to be able to keep root, but not if it means having to use stock ROMs that have been modified to the point where it will be a pain to update to the latest stock ROM+radios+whatever. I can always re-unroot myself if needed.
Thanks!

I'm looking for the exact same thing... I'd like to go back to the stock HTC Sense ROM, but I've lost my old backup copy (long story) and having trouble finding a suitable replacement. Did you happen to save a backup of your stock ROM before switching to the Evervolv ROM? If so, could you send me the Zip?
Or, if anyone out there on the forum could help, that would be great.
I was hoping to get some benefit to a more recent version of Android, but all the ROM's I've tried thus far seem to have one glitch after another. I'd prefer to go back to a stock, or some slightly upgraded version of the SENSE IU. Any suggestions appreciated.
I downloaded this ROM as it looked like a good "SENSE-esque" ROM, and looks like most everything is working on this version.

Thoughts?
I don't have a backup of my stock ROM as far as I know.
I really wanted something close to stock, so I think I ended up settling on [Rom]TN_Elousions3.2_OTA_5.07.651.6_Deoxed_Stock_Theme.zip which is a moderate mod of the last stock ROM.
I ended up going through the S-OFF process as well to make sure that I had the latest radios and such.
It's functional, but between the Sense changes and the fact that it's Gingerbread-based means that there are some things about the UI that just aren't as nice as Evervolv. The upshot is that the battery consumption is lower and the hardware features work or work better (4G, FFC, camcorder, FM radio, etc.).
I'm tempted to try one of the last official Cyanogen ROMs just to see if I like the UI better than Sense, but I'll probably just stick it out until I get a new phone.
