Besides roms, what customizations do you have? - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have the hd 5.0 Rom, and it's nice so far,I like it clean with some customizability.
It came with xposed and sense6 toolbox, but in my opinion it lacks some customizability, what are other great apps I can use?
Particularly I'm looking for battery icons with % and the stock weather widget in the drop down status bar.
Oh and a way to add more shortcuts to apps like double tap of hold some button.

if customisability is what you want, then try ViperOne rom.

LauncherPro Beta

Has anyone tried this??
It's in the top free downloads on the market, and I definitely recommend it!
It has the fly in effect when you open/close an app (a la iPhone) which makes everything feel so much more fluid.
Obviously HTC widgets don't work which is a shame, and its a little buggy being a beta, but you should try it!
Just downloaded it to give it a try. I like it.
The only downside is there is no choice of what to put on the bottom bar. I don't use the people or stock messaging app. If I could change them I'd probably use this over helix 2.
Busy trying it out now - it's extremely quick. I think I'll keep using it for a while, see how it goes.

The standard helix is actually better then this one. Especially in speed and customization

agree,
the only thing thats stopping me from using a launcher is no htc widgets and not being able to customize the grid of icons on the desktop so 4v4 only :<

how can you change the grid of icons in HTC Desire to more than 4 icons ???
Also i think that the Sense launcher is by far the smoothest and the best so far. nothing can beat it in speed, fluencity and HTC widgets.

MIUI with a home replacement

So I just started messing around with MIUI this morning after only ever using stock-like roms like CM and what not. But I really like MIUI for the most part, all the apps that come with it are really cool, and the the notification pull down is awesome with all the controls. And I love the transparent status bar. I just hate the actual home screen, I can't stand not having a launcher and being require to have all my apps on my homescreen. So I decided to try and use a home replacement but I guess since its an app the status bar can't be transparent?
So is there any soloutions to any of these things, can you get a transparent bar in a home replacement? Do MIUI apps work with other roms?

I bet the apps can work on other roms if you modify it

[Req] Black status bar

Hi guys. Is there a possible mod that can make the status bar on the home screens be dark instead of transparent?
When I scroll left to BlinkFeed it's dark and nice. Same as when I go into app drawer or when I'm in any app.
But when I scroll to screens where widgets are, it's transparent.
Screenshots will hint.

If you are rooted( I assume you are) just flash a stock rom such as viper one or trickdroid as there are tons of customization options such as the one you are looking for. If you want to stay stock then I am not quite sure but I think there is a xposed mod for that allows you to change the status bar opacity. Hope this helps
My sense homescreens, running viper Rom and I highely recommend it.

Thanks guys.
I found how to work it out with xposed framework and this module.

Google AOSP Recent Apps

Hi guys,
I'm running EclipticONE Sense 5.5/4.4 KitKat and I was wondering if there was a way to get AOSP recent apps with a kill all function? Would that be a system thing or is there an APK for this?
Thanks in advance!

Sense Toolbox and an AOSP recent apps option, but I don't think it has the kill all option for the AOSP recent apps. You might look through gravity box for that. Most of the features in GB work on sense tons. I've had the option working previously.
Edit: The clear all option for AOSP recent apps is under miscellaneous tweaks in Gravity Box. You can use a combo of Sense Toolbox and GB to get what you're looking for.

I installed Xposed, and Sense Toolbox and it gave me a kill all option with pinch and swipe down. This is awesome because I like the way Sense UI has the recent apps laid out - but now I have a kill all option. Thanks a lot!
Edit: I also read about Gravity box that it doesn't play with with ROMs that are based off of manufacturer UI (Sense, Touch) and is only intended for AOSP experience ROMs like CM11.

Ya, it says it's for vanilla android ROMs, but many of the features still work. I'm using it for pie controls right now. Anyways, glad you found what you were looking for. The swipe down is very convenient!

Actually I found a way to have aosp recents. AND HTC at the same time accessible... No modding or anything needed.... Download quick shortcut maker from play store, go to activities, click on system ui, click on recent apps.. it will create a shortcut on your home screen to Google/ aosp recents, yet you'll STILL have HTC Style as default

Customize navigation bar?

Is there a way to customize navigation bar?
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using ViperOne rom.
Yes there is. You can install the Xposed framework and then download a module called Gravitybox you can then adjust the nav bar. Just be aware that this will break ART support. I do not know of a way that keeps ART support and allows for navbar adjustment. For Xposed you can look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/framework-xposed-rom-modding-modifying-t1574401 .
It says only for vanilla android can't use it on sense.

I wanna add another button to the navigation bar like g3 I'd able too.

Viper ROM allows nav bar customization.
