[MODS] General Mods for Stock Jellybean - Sprint LG Optimus G

Until the bootloader is unlocked. Attached is some mods to improve upon Jellybean.
Also, I urge people to bring any modifications(or test yourself) some of the mods in the Nexus 4 section that I can hopefully start transposing onto the LG Optimus Jellybean. I suggest if you're unsure if a mod will work. Ask me first, it's better to ask than brick your phone.
I'll make flashable zips and incorporate into lifeless eventually.
thermald-8064.conf
- Download file (this is NOT flashable)
- Extract the file
- Replace the extracted file with the same file in System/etc (Using Root Explorer or similiar)
- This improves the overheating issue based on the modified stock thermaconfig from ICS
Camera-Mod by _EPIC
- Same exact directions as above
- Excep replace the media_profiles with the media_profiles file attached.
More to come

Seems to be working thanks!

Wifi Teather Root
Hello,
Hope this is the right forum, just recently updated to jelly bean LS970ZVB from this forum. Was able to retain root access; however lost my ability to use Wifi Tether for Root Users. Evidently FreeGee hasn't came up with a way to unlock the bootloader just yet after the update. Is there a way with this update to utilize free WIFI wireless tethering. I've looked around everywhere, and nothing has seemed to work. I have all green check marks on the log within the application. Please help!!!!:confused.
Maybe Sqlite will work with forcing entitlement changes; however , cant find this either.

The JB mods thread?
I didn't realize I was in this thread. The camera mod is one I made. It greatly improves camera and video. The thermal one helps with overheating.

Um, wifi tether works fine for me. Not sure why you need an unlocked bootloader to run wifi tether.

I really liked your camera mod for ics so I wanna give this a shot. I don't know where to put the XML file though. I don't see anything names camera_profiles. Does this replace something or just get dropped in somewhere. Thanks for your work. Sorry for my lack of smarts

I can't seem to DL the thermal zip correctly. It says it dl's but when I open it there is nothing in there. The cam mod zip worked fine.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda premium

Adri, the bootloader is unlocked, but the boot image that freegee has is for ics and therefore won't boot. If you just flash the recovery and aboot, you are unlocked, but can't debloat since the security error is fixed with the custom boot image. We haven't figured out how to fix it on jb hence the delay.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app

This one sounded interesting. Wonder if there's a similar mod that would work for us:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2028289
It changes the synaptic driver out to increase touch screen responsiveness.
Nothing else really comes to mind though.
There's a virtual CD ROM mod I saw floating around, but I would have to find it again.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app

Shelnutt has updated freegee to properly work and boot for us (the jb boot image and stuff has been taken care of). Now that is out of the way and we are unlocked/rooted zvb, could you make flashable zips for the 2 mods? would love to try them out
thanks

Always look forward to you and Epics stuff.
thanks op!

[MOD] CRT Animation for Captivate Glide I927

Big thanks to
kennethpenn - for this wonderful Enable CRT Animation in Gingerbread guide
CarpeNoctem - for (OsiMood's) update-binary and install-script reference material
Brut.all - for apktool
blast0id - for easyFLASHABLEzipBUILDER
and of course everyone who put in the work to build the foundations on which all of this is built and everyone else I'm forgetting
Without further ado, here is the
CRT Animation for Captivate Glide I927
Here is the install zip for CWM - automatic install
i927-CRT-mod.zip​
Here is the framework-res.apk - manual install, use a root file manager to copy to /system/framework/
framework-res.zip​
Warning: This is made for the ATT stock rom. It may work on the Rogers rom as well. It may not work on a custom rom, if possible you should find the framework-res.apk specific to your rom, ask the rom creator to make one, or make your own using the guide and resources listed above. To be safe, always make a backup using CWM before installing ANY mod. It only takes a few minutes and can save you hours in the long run.
Disclaimer: Use at your own risk I'm not responsible if you brick your phone, yadda yadda. I have only tested this on an ATT 2.3.6 stock rom with ardatdat kernel. So far it seems to work great and looks awesome. There is a weird effect that if the screen is off and I push the power in for just the perfect number of milliseconds, the screen starts to turn on and then turns itself off again. But I have difficulty trying to get this to happen on purpose so I doubt it will prove much of an issue. It's probably just a quirk of having the CRT animation enabled. Anyway, all of that said,
Enjoy!
UPDATE:
Here are the uninstall files for the ATT 2.3.6 stock rom. All warning and disclaimers above also apply to these so always make a CWM backup first.
Here is the uninstall zip for CWM (reinstalls stock file) - automatic uninstall
i927-CRT-mod-removal.zip​
Here is the stock framework-res.apk - manual install, use a root file manager to copy to /system/framework/
framework-res(stock).zip​

Ah well that kind of explains it. I was looking for a thread specific to CRT animation. I did suspect that some of the custom roms would already have it enabled but I wanted to give the stock run a good run for the money before trying any custom roms. Also, having the info in the middle of a custom rom thread doesn't make it very accessible. This thread was geared more towards people with stock roms who wanted an easy, confirmed way of enabling the animation.
Also, I have all signatures turned off in this forum because so many of them were large and intrusive that they were really hurting the readability (imo) of the site.

FYI, this particular mod was not taken from his rom. It was created from the framework-res.apk in my own stock ATT rom and altered using the guide and resources mentioned in the first thread. So while he gets credit for doing it first, none of his work was used in the creation of this mod. (Edit: That I know of. Apologies if I'm mistaken. I'm not trying to rip off anyone's work or belittle anyone's contributions.)
It's fantastic, thanks man.

Didn´t worked for me and now the power button just don´t work anymore. Any hints to uninstall it? I flashed the zip. Ozimood Rom.
Um, reflash? See here for CRT made by dman (confirmed working)
Flashed dman crt but i think my system was corrupted, stucked on bootloop. Done recovery now i´ll try dman.
Sorry about that, this is made specifically for the stock rom. If you have custom rom, you should get the framework-res.apk specific to that rom, as the rom creator may have made other changes as well. I'll edit the first post to make it more clear that this is for the stock rom.
Restored Osimood and flashed crt.zip... no luck.
All the install zip does is copy that one file to your system directory. I think it's absolutely impossible to hard brick from that. Don't you have a CWM backup you can restore?

Damn. I was going to mention this but I was waiting to get enough posts to post in this forum. xD
Neither of the CRT On or CRT Off links work on this end.
So thanks a ton transce080. ^_^
Could you possibly add a CRT On as well? I know there's a guide in the Captivate Glide thread that Aquethys linked to but it'd be nice to have just have a flashable method.

[Q] Is there a way to enable call recording in stock ROM?

Hello there,
I have a rooted t999, unlocked. After going through multiple posts on this forum, I have realized that to enable the call recording feature on your samsung galaxy s3 t999, you got to install a custom ROM.
But, is there any way to update a .apk (or any other method) , compatible with the stock ROM on t999 which might enable the call recording feature back?
Cheers!

Thank you guys! But all in all, it seems you have custom ROMs on your phones. I had searched the forums and had come across a phone.apk that seemed to be the answer. Now, I am not able to trace it.

Here is the one from FreeGS3 r6.
This is NOT my work!
This the stock UVALG1 Dialer app modded by uoY_redruM, dev for the FreeGS3 rom. All thanks and credit goes to him!
(Try out his rom, btw. It is awesome!)
This should work on any stock based rom though.
I'm pretty sure this is where the mod is included. Not sure right now if its dependant on another modded apk as well. Heading to work so will check later if this doesn't work by itself.

So will this not work on custom ROMs?
Its the samsung dialer so itll only work on stock based roms.
It'll likely be dependant on other parts of the touchwiz framework and is integrated along with contacts and such.
You can try it but I would be extremely surprised if it worked on anything like CM or ASOP.

Wait, sorry I shoulda been specific I guess! I don't think you can install like a normal app.
Use root explorer and copy the original from /system/app for your backup.
Pay attention to the permissions it has and copy the modded one over the old. Change permissions to what they were before. Reboot into recovery and clear cache and dalvik, then reboot system.
Test.

Thanks a lot Doc!
This is quite interesting! Although I have root explorer, I am terrible with the android stuff and so I am worried about replacing this apk with the existing phone.apk. (its the lack of "recovery" knowledge that scares me to go ahead)
Has anyone of you experts made the dialer work so far through this integration of FreeGS3 phone.apk on the stock ROM?
Cheers!
Another thing that I just figured - In my stock ROM, I do not have a phone.apk (attaching screenshot)
Which app should be backed up? I am guessing that the GS3 apk should be renamed as the stock ROM apk. correct?
http://db.tt/t7Ig4rsG
Edit 2:
guys, just figured out that there is actually an .apk called SecPhone_TMO.apk (kept searching for phone.apk )
so, please ignore the screenshot above!
although, will wait for someone to try replacing the stock ROM .apk with the GS3.
Worked perfect on Wicked's ROM. Have to move the stock phone APK out of the system\app directory and replace it with Doc's. Make sure to put the phone in airplane mode first.
Question - where are the recordings stored?
Thanks for the awesome mod!
They are stored at /sdcard/sounds/
Thank uoy_redrum at the freegs3 thread. Its his work not mine.
.....hope he didn't mind me sharing it like this. Shoulda asked first.
Ill check with him to be sure though.
You guys should try his rom. He's an outstanding dev and very helpful!

I wouldn't worry much about it. Especially if you make a copy of the original file as a backup on extSDcard.
Titanium backup works really well too.
Biggest thing to remember is the permissions.
If you can boot into recovery, wiping cache is no big deal at all. Wiping dalvik isn't bad either. When you reboot it'll rebuild dalvik but will use the new app you copied into system.
ALWAYS MAKE A NANDROID BEFORE ANYTHING!!!
That's the most important yhing you can do when messing with anything. It basically creates an exact image/snapshot of your current setup so you can go back to it at anytime.
Nandroid = Peace of Mind!

It replaces the build.prop so I would suggest that you not. What I would suggest is you ask adri if he would include the hosts file in a minor update for lifeless. This is specifically for those that can't/won't unlock but want better performance from their phone. The next update may have a Goo Manager tie in for update notifications as well as more performance improvements.
Unfortunately our LG requires unlock to debloat so this is not a debloat script. You have to remember that removing bloat without unlock = soft brick. I am however looking into a way around this without breaking OTA updates or soft bricking the phone. It may take some time as I have to go back to stock rooted ZVB to test.

Long story short. I'm running the ZVB.bin from LGNPST. This isn't working on it. I tried to get a screenshot and can't. It happens too fast. It says something like: can't mount sdcard/system.gz.tar Also I get a flash that says something like: unfortunately process.com google.process.gapps has stopped. I installed the script in root of sd.
I kinda hoped that until Freegee or the .bin is fixed that I and/or we could run this. I prefer non-patched things also. If you want I can send you a link to the zvb.bin file. Thanks Loki
edit. I know it didn't work because the build.prop is still stock
Just to make sure, your directory structure looks like this /sdcard/IAJB/*files* ? Unless you do not have full root or busybox is crippled somehow, it should have run. I'll have to flash the ZVB bin and see whats going on as the next update moves well beyond simple file swaps.

Glad it worked.
It depends on what you use to extract and how you do it as to whether it extracts properly. There is no internal folder in the zip so 7-Zip extracts files with no folder but ES File Explore does. Generally my instructions are written as I'm going through the process so any variance tends to muck things up. Sorry about that.

Question
How do you know if this worked?
I installed per instructions. When i look at the build.prop. in the wifi supplicant scan it says 20. Shouldnt it be 300?
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app
The easiest way is look at your build.prop. Is the date 3-17-13?
edit. Also look at the last entry. It should say Keep launcher in memory.

Where are the files and scripts located on your phone? Are you rooted? The reason I ask is that if the files are in located /sdcard/IAJB/ and you are rooted, the install can't fail unless there is an issue with the phone or you didn't give root permissions.

Hotspot on 4.3 TouchWiz?

Has anyone managed to get a hotspot workaround running for 4.3 yet?
I'm liking the ROM on now, but I really need hotspot and it doesn't seem to work on any of the posted stock 4.3 ROMs out of the box.

Thank you! I'll check around for that then. Much appreciated!
On Jovys rom I posted a link with modified framework and files that will allow tethering if you are using the MK2 modems.
Tether/hotspot only seems to work on 4.2 roms tried 4.3 and 4.4 none works or seems to have no support at least nobody answer to this kind of issue

That is good to know. I will migrate my way over there and look for that. Now all I have to do is get smart on how to modify framework.

They go under /system/csc folder
You should be able to just overwrite the two that are there.
I typically delete thme out and then write the new ones and change permissions.
Reboot and it will read the new files.
Thank u, using without a problem in Jovys23 4.3 stock rom

where's the link to those files?
does anyone have a link to those framework files for hotspot tethering with the mk2 baseband?
Framework Files
Hello Agelistus,
the files you can find them on this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=47983804&highlight=tether#post47983804
It will be Post #225
I didn't copy the direct URL as I don't own the link of files. Would be glad to post them here if TheArtiszan is ok with that or re-upload them to make them available in more than one spot.

Much obliged!!
Hey southsidexz, thanks a million!! xda is an entire universe of information and I would have truly burned the midnight oil looking for this to no avail. Gonna try it out now. So far that's my only issue with infamous 9, it seemed that wifi tethering worked natively on 8.0. Again, many many thanks!
Your welcome
Your welcome. Always glad to help people around.
On another note I was dumb enough to rename the framework to old before I replaced it so my Phone got killed..... However thanks to cabloomi and his Recovery Image to .tar.md5 odin flash, I was able to flash CWM latest recovery so it could read my MicroSD card and then flash the zip I created that flashed the framework file. (Thanks to ScatteredHell)
If in case someone else does it... and doesn't want to re-flash the rom or restore old backup.
You can flash Framework via recovery, following this thread instrucitons to get the framework apk into a flashable format for recovery:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1840098
If in case you have a recovery that won't read your external SD card (like I did) you can use this link to flash any recovery via ODIN.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2281287
(Side Note: if you get errors, please see post #23 on the link above, it provides the solution if you get errors)
Note:I am not responsible for damaging or further damaging your phone, I am just providing help/alternate solutions. Your phone is your responsibility
I follow the steps above and got back up running.

Just to make this easy I had the same problem on replacing framework, too. Then I searched on some other forums here and found out you can copy or move the framework apk into system folder and fix permissions then move that framework I to the framework folder to replace over the existing apk and just reboot. Just make sure to make a nandroid before doing anything just incase something goes wrong.
Thanks
Thanks Carlos2200,
I would've taken that route but sadly I couldn't get into the system folder. I wasn't able to do a nandroid restore as my SD card got messed up and the backup was gone.
Definitely for anyone, make sure you have a good Nandroid before anything.
I will update that the method I mention above does remove all your accounts only. So you will have to re-add them.

An alternative....
For those who don't care to bother with the framework files in the event that 3minit is updated to work with 4.3, I came across an app on the play store called "wi-fi tether router" that seems to work, though I haven't a clue why it does. Changing the user agent on the browser renders it successful it seems. Good luck to all!

[MOD] Google Wallet NFC fix (TW 4.3, wallet 2.0+)

This nfc fix is designed for 4.3 TW roms.
For older versions, see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1769083
Install Instructions:
Navigate to /system/csc
Open features.xml
Look for <!-- NFC -->, and replace that section with the following:
Code:
<!-- NFC -->
<CscFeature_NFC_SetSecureEventType>GOOGLE</CscFeature_NFC_SetSecureEventType>
<CscFeature_SmartcardSvc_SetAccessControlType>NONE</CscFeature_SmartcardSvc_SetAccessControlType>
<CscFeature_NFC_DefaultCardModeConfig>ESE</CscFeature_NFC_DefaultCardModeConfig>
<CscFeature_NFC_CardModeRoutingTypeForEse>ROUTE_ON_WHEN_SCREEN_ON</CscFeature_NFC_CardModeRoutingTypeForEse>
[COLOR="Red"]<!-- If you want the NFC icon in the statusbar add this line, otherwise remove it -->[/COLOR]
<CscFeature_NFC_StatusBarIconType>Att</CscFeature_NFC_StatusBarIconType>
Download file below
Flash file in recovery
Install wallet by following the instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2457569
Notes:
If you installed any other nfc fix, you'll need to revert back to your rom's "stock" system. Just flash your rom again.
This will work on either odexed or deodexed roms, as it will remove any associated .odex files.
Devs:
This is a modified Nfc.apk taken from a Sprint build.
Here's a rundown of what's happening:
NfcService looks at /system/etc/nfcee_access.xml and checks for the Google wallet signature.
It also looks at /system/etc/security_nfc_profile.dat for certain files and their sha-1. If it can't match the file with it's sha-1 it marks the system as tampered and will not allow access to the secure element.
This modified Nfc.apk will always return true when it looks at security_nfc_profile.dat.
To-do:
Create a script that will modify features.xml during install.
Download:
SGS3_4.3_TW_nfc_fix.zip
Report: I just installed wallet according to the new post of yours and it all went well. I'm on MBJ bootloader and also on yours att deodexed 4.3 Rom. Here's the screenshot:

Also, after I made the changes to the feature.XML file, I made a copy to my sdcard so I can just paste it should I have to reflash my ROM. Might not work if I upgrade or change my ROM, but if I bork and have to reflash it.

This is the s3 forums, I have a working zip for the note2, but androidfilehost is down right now. So here it is. I'll probably be making some threads soon.
I can finally upgrade to 4.3, just needed a working Wallet. Thanks so much for figuring this out!:laugh:
EDIT: Finally flashed to 4.3. This is what I did. I forgot to disable Wallet, so I did so through the website, wallet.com. After flashing I edited the xml file, then I booted into recovery and flashed the nfc fix. Then I downloaded and pushed the new .apk. When I booted up, the wallet icon did not appear in the notification bar. And after setting up, I have tap and pay not available. What went wrong?
T-Mobile SGS3, Stock rooted T-Mob 4.3, nfc fix from your thread and modded 2.0-R141-V14 .apk
EDIT: I just noticed that auto-upate is on by default in the playstore. I didn't notice any update, but I wonder if that's what did it. Never mind, somehow I got the wrong .apk.
EDIT: Turns out it was the old MD5 modem. I was on wifi the whole time after flashing and didn't notice I did not have a cell signal. Wallet tap and pay is setting up! Thanks!!!
Thank you very much for the work that went into this NFC fix and for the work that has gone into the modified Wallet.apk. I had forgotten to reboot after pushing the app to system/app and the tap to pay feature kept failing. As soon as I rebooted and tried again, it worked. The real test will come when I can actually make it to a store to test. Thanks again.
After I pushed the right .apk and flashed the right modem to get a cell signal, everything set up fine. Used it tonight and had to explain to someone who was so impressed he wants to buy a Nexus or a Sprint GS3.

Thanks so much for this thread. I'm happy it give the technical nitty gritty details as well as instructions. Tap to pay is now working on my T999 running rooted stock 4.3.
will this work for a vzw sgs3 with isis as well? i have isis and wallet on my vzw s3 and both are working right now. but not when i upgrade to 4.3 so i've temporarily reverted back to 4.1.2
