GWIZ
TouchWiz...Hacked and Googlized
GWIZ uses the T-989 4.1.2 T-Mobile Jelly Bean final update as a base. The project's purpose is to offer extra functions and better looks over stock while maintaining maximum stability, while increasing speed and battery life.
Also Aesthetics have been considered and vastly improved over stock.
Summary: Going for it all here, aesthetics, speed, battery, extra functions, updated kernel and ROM provide an improved look and 'feel'. For this project I have used the GoogleGallery and camera as well as the GoogleLauncher and adding back the `clear` button on Notification panel return to the extra toggles features, flashlight, reboot menu etc etc. Features:
Google launcher
NO ADDS
VOL WAKE
FOURWAY REBOOT
23 TOGGLES
CUSTOMIZABLE BOOTANIMATION
NEXUS KITKAT UI SOUNDS
DEBLOATED
CSC TWEAKS
Theme work returned the clear button, =] that was fun and a ton of digging for days. now the blue bars are gone and full function returned...
Much more that I didn't forget.
Xtra Functions
BLN a.k.a. back lighting notification.
ScreenShot on statusbar
PowerButton on status bar. uses = tap to lock the device or hold it down to pull up the reboot menu
overclockable kernel to 2.3ghz... is that an extra function? close enough
Long-Press Menu2Kill app

Flashing....
***DISCLAIMER***
First of all... If you have rooted or flashed a custom recovery to a device then you have voided that device's warranty. I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD_Cards, thermonuclear war, and no one but yourself is responsible if you get fired because the alarm app failed. Please do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if you point the finger at me or anyone else for messing up your device, we will laugh at you. Collectively, and at the same time. By downloading you agree that you alone are responsible for your actions and device(s).
_____________________________________
Installation Instructions:
WIPES ==> wipe all except external sdcard and internal sdcard
1. Install TWRP recovery. WIPE the following partitions in TWRP recovery ====> /system /data/ /cache/ dalvik cache/ /preload/ everything but internal and external sdcards... unless you want to wipe those as well then go right ahead.. also wiping everything is a good way to start over if coming from builds of another source.
2. Install ROM from /sdcard/ aka internal /sdcard/
3. After flashing completes, reboot
4. LET IT SIT A FEW MINUTES
5. Sign in to WI-Fi if available, then sign into your Google account
6. Choose Google launcher when prompted pick "Always" then "OK"
7. open play store and allow Google search and keep to update...
8. reboot.. if Google store seems stuck it is updating... just hold tight or press menu and hold to kill PlayStore then enter it again a few moments later. Remember to Reboot.

FAQ:
Please see the Q and A thread before posting Questions in development threads.
BUGS:
1. FC While using GoogleCamera in video mode and tap screen.. Instead of taking a still shot it force closes. This is not my bug so to speak its well documented on the XDA threads
2. While its not a bug really, but mentionable, before the Google launcher is properly integrated with Google Search, a few apps need to update through the playstore...

Click to expand...

nope I tried again just like I always do and nothing I can compute.
Its deodexed.. for this ROM you can just delete the odex files and theme away... I noticed that the md5 sums stayed the same for the .apk part after odexing.. meaning the original app didnt change a bit so just delete the odex part and theme.
just rebuilt the app triple checked it referenced with wanam's guide for Toggles and same result everything worked but after using the flashlight it lagged about 10 secs before becoming responsive.
I have taken logcats of the occurances and have presented them to wanam 's thread or guide to see if anyone can help. its beyond my knowledge at this point and no book to read that I have found,
anyone that wants to help the Flashlight project chime in and or give it a try.
I've noticed the flashlight toggle lag issue with other ROMs as well. The only one which did not have the issue was your JellyBean Odexed 3 ROM. What a mystery haha.
Oh really! I didnt realize that thanks ill look into why maybe that one works better.
I dont beleive I put toggles in that one at all.
Maybe I was thinking of the wrong one. I dl*d. Jellybeast odexed 3.zip
And no toggles but a flashlight app in that rom by tesla
Sent from my SGH-M919 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I think the only difference with that Jelly Odexed 3 ROM was that the toggles weren't customizable. Can't change the order, can't remove or add certain toggles. They were all there. So maybe it was from a different source?
I use the toggled flashlight daily.
anyway all is well I guess no complaints or bugs yet.. Bueno
Calender is not working and I'm getting sync errors. Any ideas

use google calendar delete stock ..thanks for the feedback I will delete calendar and rebuild
So far the ROM seems great, fast and stable. I really like the customizations you've done to it. I know this has already been mentioned but my only gripe is the flashlight toggle lag, especially turning it off. That said, the original stock ROM didn't even have a flashlight toggle (thanks Samsung).

downloading now... is the calendar sync fixed? I like the stock calendar better than google... specially the monthly view... in google calendar it does not show the details. I will be flashing Gwiz shortly, I have been running shadow xtr3me until now and it is starting to slow down... thanks!!
Tried to download the Google calendar.. It won't find my calender just spins. Anyone else get the sync errors under the Google account in settings?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
One other problem I've found, the built in email client does not work with Hotmail. The stock Samsung one does automatically. Seems to be the stock client in this ROM but I can't get Hotmail working automatically or by manually configuring.
Just flashed and really love it so far! Thanks for your work! Couple questions/issues:
I chose google launcher and removed most of the autogenerated shortcuts on the home screens and now have just 2 screens. Id like to add another home screen for media, how do I do that? Forgive me if this is a silly question.
Also, I seem to be going back and forth from 3g to H+ waaayy more than before. Any idea why this is? Seems to actually prefer 3g but im in Chicago and have always used H+ without trouble.
I don't have a stock calendar so I downloaded Google calendar and it wont sync with my google account. When I click "calenders to sync" it says loading, but nothing happens. Ideas?
The stock email app doesn't work for my corporate account, it force closes. Should I remove it and try to add it again???
Every time I restart, its says "android is upgrading...." ideas??
What do all of the icons represent in the toggle section of notification pane.
Thanks so much for your time.....

To add another home screen simply drag an icon or widget to the right side, it will create another screen.
I seem to have the same problem switching way too much between 3G and H+, killing the battery quicker.
The stock e-mail app doesn't work properly for me either, hopefully this gets fixed.
I also get the "Android is upgrading" every time I reboot, any ideas dev?

I tried dragging the icon over and it just wouldn't work. I can add a widget to the other page but then when I take it away the page leaves as well.
I think I may have gotten a bad flash. It was the first time that I flashed a ROM on this phone. I suppose I will try again tomorrow. Thank you for your reply and keep in touch. I will update on any results that I have.
ETA:
some of the posts are really old for this device, what is the best way to wipe the device clean and start fresh with a new install? I'm using twrp 2.4..... thanks in advance.
ETA2:
So i triple wiped everything and restore my backup through twrp. Triple wiped again and re-flashed gwiz... let it sit for 10 minutes. I have been auto signed in since ive been flashing so....Updated relevant apps through store and let it sit for 10 minutes. Rebooted. Let sit 10 minutes. Things i noticed:
1:
Still cant drag icon over to set up another homescreen.
2:
Corporate email now works!!???
3:
Data connectivity is still an issue. I can see it bouncing between 3g and H+. it takes longer to send sms. Also, i havent mentioned it yet but when i try to place a call, i get a recorded message from tmobile... something about cant be completed. Tried all the options in settings, no joy.....

Google calendar still wont sync with my account.
Will update....

I know there are problems with the ROMs HacxedWiz and GWiz... I have a new Hacxedwiz ROM which I am going to use as a base for future projects... you will get the fix. no worries...
"1:

Yeah I noticed the same the actions.. Google is smart.
4:
Google calendar still wont sync with my account.
What is it that you did to try and fix it??
Look fellas this is old alphabet soup, the same letters are floating around in the bowl. just pull from the bottom and give to the top... Meaning fix it with some new stuffs. I know its hard to figure out what it is that works and doesn't.. that is what i am doing right now so try some new stuff like getting root explorer and dropping some apps in to fill in the blanks... what I gotta spell it out? you gotta read between the lines. expect perfect a little ways down the way this was just the alpha build with no number. -=]
here is a fix for now well its a possible fix I think you all will like it.
I've chosen to post this fix that I have created here to bring more attention to XDA, instead of posting directly on OPPO Forums. This is because OPPO staff have clearly stated with their latest release of ColorOS v2.1.5i that it will be their last.
The mods also didn't reply when I offered to share with them this, so.. That's the situation there.
For those who still prefer ColorOS while Project Spectrum is being developed (released today but not all ColorOS features included), follow the steps below.
After 3 weeks if testing.. Here is the fix!!
Issue:
After some usage, you notice app notifications appear, then disappear immediately.
After reboot, this behavior persists. Additionally, your startup apps do not autostart anymore.
Apps in the background are automatically closed after switching to another app.
Manual Fix:
There is a problematic folder and file that needs to be removed. Use a file manager such as Solid Explorer to browse to the files and remove them.
/data/data_bpm - remove folder and files
/data/system/appops.xml - remove file
Reboot and all is fixed.
Persistent notifications hidden using notification centre reappears. Just enable and disable the notification through the notifications control and it will go away.
Tasker is recommended to create a reboot button. The task sequence for reboot would be to remove the problematic files and folder before reboot. It automates the process making your life easier.
If this helps you..
Please spread the word and link back to this thread on xda. ?
Thanks for the fix, dude, very much appreciated
Well done! Even though I am not using COS anymore, I really do appreciate your post!
Thank you for the fix! Cheers
Thanks for the share. Will try this. In the meantime, anyone still having notification problems, try greenify. The fix is in experimental features but you will need to pay for this feature. I've decided to settle on 2.1.5i. Will move to asop when it is more stable. Cheers.

Could you elaborate more? I'm also using greenify but issue still persists.
You need xposed framework for it to work. In settings, go to experimental features. Tick telephony wake up, don't remove notifications and gcm push. I have all notifications coming in on time. Gmail default app seems to be the only problem app so I use default email app instead. P.s. I tried deleting the first folder and files but it shows up again after reboot. The second file is gone. Is this correct? Thanks.

I had all the options selected. Guess it does not work for me.
And yes, files are recreated. I would suggest adding the deletion to a task sequence for reboot to automate the procedure.

Regarding notifications, I've also put every messaging app and email in white list and auto run management. Funny why it's not working out for you. I get reply notifications from youtube too, without adding it. Not sure about how to do the task sequence but everything seems to be fine now.

You can use Tasker to create a reboot button or profile.
But I suggest using other mm roms.. Coloros pales in comparison after I switched.
If you're rooted, removing Security Centre would stop a lot of issues....
These Chinese phones are over the top on built in security apps and I assume because China has a lot of aggressive adware.
Xposed and MinMinGaurd, plus AdBlock Browser fixes a lot of issues.
@RobboW Do you really remove the Security Centre?
I kept it but it is annoying at times. You have to go in and check so many settings if you install anything you want to run at boot or start up itself. I even had to move a couple of apps into system instead of user so they would run reliably.
Does Xposed trouble with Color OS?
Deleting the file and folder seems to do the job, but not 100%. Yesterday I noticed Waze was closing after switching to another app, so I checked and they were back in the data folder. Deleted them again, but they seem to reappear after every reboot? Anyway, now waze seems to work and does not close with the "new" fikes.
Another solution to the problem is to convert apps that have problems to system apps. It worked for me with Chrome (wasn't getting Facebook notifications at all in chrome), Google Calendar, and Titanium Backup (batch actions would not complete because the app would close when not in foreground).
Do you need to be rooted to locate/delete the two files? I can't seem to find it on my device.

Hey,
There have been a lot of threads that let you activate the LED on the Moto G4 but none of them allow you to use it as a notification light.
Here is an app called "Moto Led Enabler" - Download(PlayStore)
The usage is pretty simple and straight forward-
1. Install the app and open it.
2. Grant the root permissions.
3. Grant the notification access from withing the app.
4. Select the applications for which you want to be notified.
Note:
1. The intensity slider doesn't work so the LED would glow at a constant intensity.
2. The app needs to be in memory in order to work so if you restart the device open the application once so that it can run in the background.

All other apps including the one you gave the link to will only work for charging and power purposes only. They don't provide you the facility of having app specific notifications.
This thread focuses on using the LED as a notification LED instead of a charging LED.
-----Update-----
This app makes the LED actually useful instead of making it glow only when the power is connected

The app by default automatically selects any newly installed application, I haven't faced this problem so can't say. Did you by any means clear the app data or something??

You're welcome. You can try contacting the app developer, maybe he can fix it.
I bought a G4 a few days ago without knowing that some phones like this have done away with the "must-have" notification LED that I depend on so much. I've only had this app installed for a few hours (and have had the G4 and Android N for not much longer), so I may not have discovered some quirks yet, but it does work. I don't understand why Play Store reviews are so poor, but I assume it's because a lot of people are unrooted (root requirement should have been mentioned by dev in the description even though it's pretty obvious, but whatever). Anyway, thanks for sharing, OP. I'm still kind of in shock that an app is needed to have a notification light on this phone, but since it is, this app is a godsend.
its not blinking.. the light is on constantly till the notification is cleared..
LightFlow works great. I put up these directions a few days ago..

Most custom roms offer inbuilt notification led control :good:
i hope that trick will work at the new G5 and G5 plus too with root :fingers-crossed:

It is working. Check G5 Plus forum
The LP5523-controlled segmented LEDs on the rear of the Nextbit Robin are one of the device's most unique features. Yet they see very little use, being used only for effects relating to the now-defunct "Smart Storage" in the stock ROM and simply displaying a pattern during boot in custom ROMs. Nextlit rectifies this by employing these lights as a useful notification indicator.
DOWNLOAD
Nextlit allows you to preview the five patterns programmed into the LP5523 by Nextbit plus another five unique to the app, and select one to activate when a notification is received. You can configure patterns for individual apps, letting you identify which app requires your attention without needing to wake your phone. Nextlit exploits the potential of the segmented LEDs to encode greater meaning than can be expressed with the standard notification light and looks cool while doing it.
If you want to use the app for any more than simply previewing the available patterns you'll need to give its service notification access. The application does not read nor care about the contents of notifications; the only thing it does is count them. You can see the relevant routines here.
The app needs root access in order to access /sys but will work on any ROM. Nextlit has been featured on XDA and is free software, released under the Mozilla General Public License version 2.0.
To do
user-definable patterns
necessitates an assembler for the LP5523's instruction set
music visualisation
BCD clock
(optionally) disable lights while charging

The preview works but I can not enable it for notifications. The app force closes if I try. How do I give the app the correct permissions? There is no permission in the app settings, which I can assign.

Oh dear :s The app is meant to take you to the notification access settings when you first enable the service with the switch, does it crash before that? You can try giving it access by navigating to notification access yourself (For Nougat, Settings > Apps > cogwheel > Special access > Notification access). What ROM and Android version are you on?

I am using a personal build of AOSiP, Android 7.1.2
The app quits before the query. But thanks for the hint. I did not know this option yet. I already had logfile ready. But it works now. At least the message "Service started" came.
Thank you for your quick help.
Here is a logfile from matlog. This is my first logfile ever created. If you need something special, let me know. I would like to help provide useful information.
Now I have another problem. I hope I do not flood the thread. The LEDs do not stop flashing. Even if I turn off the service, the LEDs come back on with the screen off and keep dancing.
But I'm still very excited. Many thanks for your effort.
Thanks for the logcat. I actually realised what the error is just after my last post (stupid mistake, it'll happen whenever someone has no apps set up for notification access), and that is fixed. I will try to reproduce the service failing to stop, but it's working fine for me. I'll upload an updated apk, hopefully with fixes for both, later today. Don't worry about spamming the thread or anything, I can only fix things if people report them
OMG thanks for the effort, really really appreciate it. I hope other ROM devs see what you did and implement this in their ROM's. Props to you for working on the application, great work keep it up please.
New version (1.0.1) is up, with fixes for both issues. I've updated the download link in the OP. Because Android caches services, you should uninstall 1.0 before installing 1.0.1 for the fix to take effect.

Thanks for the update. Service starts and stops fine now. I look forward to future improvements to this app.
I'm glad it's working now. Thanks for all the words of encouragement everyone Has anyone confirmed everything working on stock, just so I can update the OP?

Working on stock 7.1.1.
How much is the battery drain?
That's great news! I'll update the OP.
Regarding battery drain, when I wrote that I was thinking about the service that listens for notifications requiring loads of wakelocks because I misunderstood the way that the NotificationListenerService works. Unlike a normal service, it actually runs constantly in the background and is managed by the Android system rather than the app itself (this was also the reason for the "service not stopping" bug that was fixed in 1.0.1). So I'll remove the lines about "minimising battery drain" in the OP, unless people report that the app is actually having an effect on their SoT. For the lights themselves, according to max_current, each LED can draw a maximum of 3.2 mA , so assuming negligible power consumption of the LP5523 itself, that's just 12.8 mAh, or just 0.5% of the Robin's total battery capacity per hour (assuming they're at 3.7 V) for all four at full brightness.
One thing that will actually reduce power consumption, though, is adding options to show only when the screen is off (you can't see the lights if you're using the phone after all!), and to only show patterns for notifications that would normally activate the "standard" notification light (so music players don't set it off, for example).
In other news, I have setting custom patterns fully working, but need some more time to document the process fully, and to come up with some nice ones to show off what the chip is capable of. The LP5523 can hold up to 96(!) instructions, but the kernel driver only supports up to 16, which is quite frustrating. I may be able to find a workaround for that by chaining multiple engines together, but that's something for later. In the future I'd also like to try to implement user-definable patterns, but that will take more time.
This project has been rather more popular than I expected, so now is a good time to ask everyone: what features do you want to see in the app?
App doesn't work
After installing and turning on notification access for the app force closes when trying to open it
Lights don't stop flashing
Great use for the leds. A few observations:
Using the app (1.0.1) for a couple of days now. The leds do not stop flashing after dismissing notifications.
Also, while there is no notification for the service stopped, it does stop on its own after a 3-4 hrs (Which is when the leds do not flash when receiving notifications) Haven't figured out what makes it stop yet.
I'm on LOS 14.1 (Android 7.1.2)

That's odd. The logic for handling a notification dismissal is as simple as counting the number of active notifications and turning the lights off if there aren't any, so I can't think why the lights would enable but not disable. It sounds obvious, but did you have any low priority persistent notifications active while testing? That's honestly the only thing I can think of.

Seeing the app featured on the side panel was a great surprise today, but it keeps the pressure up to improve it
Disclaimer: I am not Responsible for Burns on your gorgeous Amoled display or the Nuclear war triggered or your anything using by my guide.
As we have the Notification Led ditched by Sammy, we have a few alternatives. However, I have somewhat mimicked the missing features through Always On Edge.
Play Store Link: (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.used.aoe
I can understand that this has already been discussed, my purpose of this thread is to Guide you an effective configuration of the AOE app. Many people find the app difficult to configure as this is like a "One Page Website" containing almost all the options in the same place, therefore looking messy. Also, this app have several bugs yet I found this most reliable yet.
I don't claim any credit for the App.
Steps:
Please disable dear Samsung's Edge Light feature OFF.
Disable Window and Transition Animation off in Dev Settings if you don't like AOE flickering statusbar during notification reminder.
Install Always on Edge from the play store link above.
Go to AOE settings, Give the app necessary Permission.
Exclude the app from being battery optimized.
On How/When to Light section, select your preferences. In "When Notification Comes", select your apps to notify and set your preferred colour.
Turn Reminder on for 8 seconds in every 16 seconds.
On Edge Style, Select Stable (This helps reduce battery drain).
Check Adjust brightness, keep it at mid range or as you prefer.
On How to Close, select Double Tap to Close.
Now, on Enable Edge Lighting, keep it enabled, Select around Notch only. On the notch support settings, select Adjust manually and select the values 55,0,15,10, Right > 120 respectively.
This will make a smaller notification LED like light above the notch. We usually don't use that area so, it should be absolutely fine. With these settings, you get a working notification LED alternative.
I hope this helps a lot of us. These settings are my personal preference at this moment. I am also looking into Chainfire's Holey Light but that thing is a baby and drains battery plus does not notify when on battery and screen is off. So, I shall wait till other alternatives are available.
There's a Thank Button for Every Post That Makes you Thankful to the Author.
Why wouldn't you add this to the thread that already exists about this app?
I can understand that this app has been already talked about but why I made this thread is so that more people can get the guide easily and it does not get lost in the conversation. If moderators think it's duplicate and wish, they may merge it with the other thread.
Hi.
If I want to set it for missed calls and messages, what I have to select? Thanks
This is a proper location for this guide. It's where most users come to look for something like this. Look at the title of this section: "Guides, News, & Discussions"...
Leave it here, where it belongs.

This app doesnt work properly for me, it only shows notification around camera ring after i wake the screen, whats the point of it than?
Not to mention often there is like overlay over regular losckreen so i need to unlock twice, it comes over fingeprint area so i cant directly unlock phone from screen off.
Reinstalled it 3 times already just to see if im crazy or not and redid from scratch following 100% guide from youtube or net.
What im doing wrong here or it works like that for all?
@ivicask,
I can't tell you what you're doing wrong, but it's not supposed to work like that. On my phone it notifies me as soon as a new message notification arrives. Try experimenting with some of the options. And read all the notices that the developer put in the app.

Can you check if the "Screen is Off" is selected in the when a notification comes section. Also, did you disable Edge Lighting?
These are my settings and it works perfectly fine and the notification light stays on until I dismiss it. The red circled area is what needs to be changed to leave the notification light on until you dismiss it.
In the last screenshot, you scroll down through that list to select the apps you want a notification light for. Whenever you install a new app on your phone it gets automatically check off in that list. Just something to remember.
In addition whenever you make a change you have to hit save at the bottom.
This setup also works with Samsung stock AOD.

I wish people would stop recommending this app. I have had 0 success in using it and having it work as intended. I have tried your settings, and once again this does not work for me; When I get a notification, the screen lights up, shuts off, and there is no indication that a message has arrived. There are like 3 threads on this particular program that also offer suggestions on how to get the program to "work".
Yes, Edge lighting has been disabled. I even went a step further and rebooted the phone, then installed the app. Used your settings, as well as the other settings that have been suggested and I have the same outcome, I just don't get it. I am sure that atleast 100 of the reported downloads are form me trying to get this app to work LOL.
I appreciate your time to try to explain how you managed to get the app to work, but is not reliable imho, and I really wish it were
I just use the AOD, as much as I hate it, it's about the only reliable way to know that a notification has arrived.

What are the other apps? I would love to try anything that would give me a working notification indicator.
You and I have a vastly different expectation when it comes to "working as intended". If it did work as intended, all of us would be able to have this app function correctly.
I also find it very convoluted and bloated. When creating a UI for any app, you should use the "user is drunk method". Meaning even if a person were intoxicated, they should be able to use the app. But that is neither here nor there.
I appreciate what the developer has done, I just haven't been able to accomplish the task at hand.

I also have had the same problem. I normally used double tap to wake. It is however, present in this app.
Select double tap to close this app. And just use the fingerprint sensor to unlock the phone. It works. I have been using this.
About the Bloated UI of the app, I also agree with all of you. I also contacted the developer on this. He said he will look into this once the app become more stable.
Those, who could not get this app working, I'm sure there is some settings of your phone that are contradicting. For examplen if a notification wakes up the screen, this app will not notifiy. Moreover, yes, I have been using this app as my daily driver now. It does not disappoint me. I have used all the other apps available, Holey Light, Arc Lighting. None works as it should. They works as mentioned by the dev but those features are not the feature an LED-holic person is looking for. Holey Light cannot notify when not being charged. Arc notification ridiculously asks me to watch ad for every hour I use the app.
I am not being paid by the app developer to spread the words. I am spreading the word because it works for me and it SHOULD work for you also as we share the same device. There must be some conflicting app or settings. If anyone needs help settings this up, I would love to help.
