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
Hello,i am sorry if i made this thread for nothig,but i've searched the forum for a way to hide the black bar that is down on the screen (the black bar with three dots on it).This is my first Android phone i've had and honestly i'm kinda noob in this Android "world".It's not verry bothering except in games (in every game it shows and i can't do anything to hide it) and i have downloaded an app called MiLocker,but every lockscreen that i setup the black bar keeps showing down on my screen.I've seen on the forum that many people recomend other lauchers (GoEx,etc),i want to know if there is a way to disable this without changing my laucher because i realy like it.
PS:My phone is rooted if anyone has a solution to hide the bar but i have to do some changes that require root acces.
PS:Also,why are the lockscreens so laggy on HTC One X?
Thank you verry much and sorry if the questions above were asked before.
EDIT:Sorry guys,found the answer after all,you can delete the post.
Could you give us your solution?

You will need an deoxed ROM in order to use this.I think i will put the Android Revolution HD (ARHD) on my One X.The only problem i have is that my firmware is 1.26 and as far as i understood for the new ARHD 3.1 i need to put the 1.28.The problem is that i've unlocked with htcdev my bootloader and now the cin is none so i don't have any idea how to update that.I've seen a guy who tryed to put the new ARHD on his 1.26 but claims that he had problems with it and after that he camed back to the stock ROM.Also i have S-ON so i will have to flash my boot.img manualy...i will probably wait for an S-OFF and then update everything.

Hello, I'd like to know, if possible, install the circle green battery mod on my Stock JB 4.1.1 (Spain) or any kind of mods I can install on my rooted Galaxy S3!
Cheers.

Could you show me? And also if possible a transparent notification or homescreen status bar (odex)?
Cheers.
Root your cellphone
Have a look at your build number, I think Spain JB stock odex is DLIH
Have a look in this section for the mods you wish to flash that are specific for your build number, most of what you want are in the first 2 pages.
Download the zip files, pass them to your phone.
Get into recovery mode
Make phone backup
Flash the zip files
Reboot
Have a look at the many tutorials here or google on how to use CWM before doing any flashing to make sure you know what you are doing. I'm still very newbie on this so my advice may not be the best, so read up on flashing ROMS and Mods, etc. so you don't end up bricking your phone.
Good Luck
Hi yes i enjoy INFAMOUS S4 but i came a cross a problem. v2.4 i was able to install 100%Transparent Statusbar and Notifications but on v2.5 theres a IU error now im not stupid i know because of the new added ROM CONTROL its giving me an error is there a solution or update to that problem
Hmm i believe those options are already in the rom control....why aren't you using those?
i did no luck see the mods make any wallpaper with the status bar transparent and the ROMmod only with the stock wallpaper, that's why i flash it and well the v.2.4 i didn't had any issues but if just a request or a question if is possible to make it work..

Try setting your status bar color to black.
Set the status color black as mention above, and set the transparency...will get transparency on any wall paper that way
i will thanks for the support ill let you know if that works if not ill roll back to V2.4 until i figure some thing out tanks
SO i try and no luck i flash and wipe 3 times now i come to the conclusion because of the mod in the rom you cant flash others mods it work before but ROMs have to grow no shame on that still move it .. thanks
perhaps you are getting a bad download, i have experienced bad md5 checksums on previous downloads.
Get an md5 checker program. the md5 is given on the download site.
well yes you were right sir i re-downloaded it and now it works fine actually i dirty flash it over the old one working fine now no problems so far i hope
actually can you ask Mr infamous if he going to release a App2SD on the rom or is he going to update the ROM to 4.3 i could ask but the dam website wont let me. IT WOULD HELP THANKS
Did you notice that samsung disabled the soft keys in its 4.2.2 "update"?
Whenever one adds the line:
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
in the build.prop and reboot then the systemui constantly forces close, thanks to samsung aka sam sucks:cyclops:
I don't know for you guys, but as for me I was annoyed cuz I can't live without soft keys. So I modded the SystemUi, and while I was at it I made the notification bar transparent, and put some green (my favorite color) here and there. Then I thought that some people may be interested, and that's why I share it here...
DISCLAIMER
I'm not responsible if anything happens, do a backup just in case.
INSTALLATION
You need to be rooted, and of course to be on 4.2.2
1-using your favorite root browser add in your build.prop:
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
when done don't forget to set the perms to rw, r, r
2-go to recovery and install the zip
3-before to leave recovery wipe dalvik cache and cache
4-reboot, now you have a transparent notification bar, some nice green and soft keys.
The keys look pretty big, if it disturbs you then change your phone's DPI. As for me I use 110 for the whole phone, 160 for Android System and 130 for SystemUI, but it works with other settings, see which one fits you the best.
Have a look at the screenshoot below to see if this SystemUI inspires you...
You will notice an arrow on the left, it's there cuz I have good hopes to enable the mini tray drawer as an alternative multiwindows launcher. If I don't manage then I'll remove this arrow in a further version.
Edit 1:
Actually I don't like this unuseful arrow, and after all it's not so much work to remove it, so I made an other version without it.
Now you can choose, with or without arrow...
There is still room for some minor improvements and I'll do it when I have time, but for now I want to concentrate on making a Floating Multi Windows mod...
Edit 2:
I made 2 more versions.
I colored the soft keys, and I have made the separation between the notification toggles transparent, have a look at the screenshots and see if you like it.
One version has holes above the soft keys, the zip is labeled ColoredNoArrowSoftKeys.
The second version doesn't have the holes but has blueish lines instead, the zip is labeled V2ColoredNoArrowSoftKeys.
Enjoy!
Sir you solved my confusion...
I changed dpi thn added softkey syntax in built prop... what i got was loops..
I blamed pit file of leaked rom.. n till today.
Now I got cleared that softkey is disabled in 4 2 2
Uncle fab you are fabulous.. Thanks
To err is human; to forgive is divine
Few questions
Can you provide stock system ui app?
Can I remove phone, dialer and replace it with third party apps?
I saw navigation right left keys on softly bar when keyboard in active in k2wl rom. Is that possible on your mod?
To err is human; to forgive is divine
Stock systemui, yeah, sure, but why? If you don't want the soft keys just disable the build prop line. Or maybe you want to mod it?
Anyway, here it is...
It's possible to change the keys order of course, you just have to decompile the app and remap, easy.
Phone apk you can't remove as far as I know cuz then you don't have any connectivity anymore (I didn't try with this rom though, but I had with previous ones). Stock dialer, maybe, I never thought about it actually, thanks for the idea!
I will see this when I revert back to 4.1.2 in as few days, cuz this 4.2.2 goes more and more on my nerves, it's not an upgrade but a downgrade!
Edit:
the first time the systemui pretended it was uploaded but it wasn't, so I tried again and here it is.
Before to flash anything always have a look at what's inside the zip. First to make sure that you are ok with the files inside, second to learn, and third to make a backup of your original files.
Same here... 4.2.2 is head ache.. I will revert too. 4.2.2 seems unfinished yet.
I need system ui to compare both apk n learn. But I'm enough with 4.2.2.

To err is human; to forgive is divine
---------- Post added at 10:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:09 PM ----------
Yes.. I learned that late.. I cursed me after finding that I could have backup.
Thanks but I will revert back after getting reason for considering 4.2.2 as downgrade
To err is human; to forgive is divine
Previous post updated with the app...
Why a downgrade?
Higher ram consumption, no more floating multiwindows, sooooo much bloatware (a new record, I removed like 170 or 180 stock apks), google's latest spyware aka fusedlocation.apk that one can't get rid of, incompatibilities with xprivacy, lags with my favorite file manager, can't remove some unuseful xmls (well, for me they are unuseful but for google they help spying, in 4.1.2 I had removed all that trash), annoying persistent notification if I disable background sync, etc...
Actually it's not grand related, it's a 4.2.2 problem, I had some of those issues with my tab running cm 10.1 and you know what?
I reverted to 4.1.2 on my tab, such a relief!!!:silly:
I hope it will get better with 4.3 and 5+ but i'm not very confidend about it, at least when it comes to bloatware and spyware, it's the direction google and samsung follow, you remember the discussion we had a while ago...

I do remember. I get tired of blocking white collar spy wares.. Mr. GOOGLE... Blocking them makes system unstable.
I doubted on fusedlocation as it was present in all roms here... Aopk cm10.1...
Means 4.2.2 is loaded with monitoring system.? I removed bloatware but they were 70... Hence, I could figure out just half! Uncle fab provide list of apps which can be removed in a separate thread. I'm very much aware that you made in post but a thread will be handy...
Another queries....
Will battery usage improve in 4.1.2 ?
Is your multi window mod in 4.1.2 bug free?
Can you add navigation option in your soft key bar?
To err is human; to forgive is divine
I will make a thread about safe to remove apps for 4.2.2 in a few days when I have time.
Regarding battery I can't tell for sure cuz in the last days I spent most of my grand time doing settings, removing trash, trying (without any success so far) to implement multi windows and thus rebooting all the time... But since ram consumption is lower in 4.1.2 probably 4.1.2 has a better battery life.
The multi windows mode on 4.1.2 is bug free once set, but at first you have to set dpis properly.
Add navigation key in the soft keys bar? What do you mean? You mean adding other keys? I think it's possible to add the search key, but I don't know about other keys like camera, app drawer (this one is touch wiz dependant so if you use another launcher it won't work anyway, even on a Rom that supports it like let's say the tabs) or screenshots. It depend if it's supported or not (if the function is built in then it's just a matter to find the line and enable it, but if it's not supported then I'm not sure if one can trigger it).
As for me I would like to trigger real tablet ui (the notification bar merged with the navigation bar in the bottom), but I know that Samsung has disabled it on the grand and with this 4.2.2 "upgrade" I didn't have time to check further. Be insured that I will as soon as I'm done with 4.2.2...
I want real tablet ui.. Navigation keys are activated in Aokp as soon as keyboard pops up..
I really found that interesting.. May be deodexed rom can achieve it...
Edit..
I found that your 4.1.2 multiwindows mod works better on deodexed rom. Is there any way that I can convert my stock rom to deodexed rom?
To err is human; to forgive is divine
I don't follow you.
When one has the soft keys enabled it means that the keys are always active.
I'm not a big fan of custom roms (and to be honest I have always been disappointed with the ones I tried), for me the best is a bug free stock rom with everything working. Rooted, deodexed and debloated of course.
Regarding deodex, if you want to use floating multi windows on your grand, and if you want to theme your systemui etc. you need to be on a deodexed rom. You've probably noticed that the modded systemui in op is deodexed, if it hadn't ben nothing would have been possible...
Edit:
yes, the floating windows work better with a deodexed rom. If you don't know how to do it on your own it's a good opportunity to learn
Otherwise search the forum, there are some deodexed 4.1.2 roms...
When I get back to 4.1.2 I will try to improve those floating windows a bit, but first I want to try to make it work on 4.2.2.
Not working for Me
i have 4.2.2 rom and rooted
flash through CWM but wipe cache but nothing happen why
You are on stock 4.2.2?
Nothing happens? No transparent notification bar?
To have the soft keys you have to add
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
in your build.prop, otherwise the soft keys won't show, did you read op?
@DBZo07:
I went back to 4.1.2, this 4.2.2 is not for me. So I won't make a thread about safe to remove apps, but you can use the one I wrote for 4.1.2 cuz it's the same, except that you can't remove fusedlocation.apk. Don't forget to make a backup just in case
