This is for Stock Sprint Note 4 ANIE odexed
4.4.4 has proven to be a challenge. So I have not completed a full theme yet. But If you are tired of the stock dialer and message, here is something to try.
Something happened with my dropbox, and this theme could have been forever. But @KLPFL came through with a copy to repost... Big thanks!!!!

Yes, there will be others. Once I get a complete theme together, i will be putting out different ones. It is just taking a while because 4.4.4 is challenging. I will do one without the pictures next.

Would it be to hard to help me or give me hints in how to modify the dial pad color... for example i would like to change dial to like a neon blue and add a different background. But to be honest i just start it to theme my note 4 and as a beginner im kind of lost in many things but learning and loving it. One thing i can seem to find a way is how to replace or modify .qmg or how would i start ... if its possible to change looks . I notice your theme for dial and wonder how how did he did it..
Thanks hope you dont mind me asking and if you need my email to answer better let me know...

First of all, google qmg to png converter. Find the one that is an an apk. It will convert and put files right on your phone. Only replace the pngs you want to modify so you don't make the apk too big. As far as the dialer background, you need to write the background in in your styles.xml. it has gotten a little harder on 4.4.4. Look for DeviceDefault and stay there.

Put the icons in whatever folder they came out of.. Probable drawable-sw360dp-xxhdpi and delete the qmg or astc file with the same name. You have to search for the colors. They are not all in one place.

Xperia launcher with corners!!

This guy modded it to work on any phone with the right resolution, I'm using it right now on my incredible s and it looks awesome so I thought I would share!

that one doesn't look nearly as well done imo.
A single icon isn't supposed to come out of the corner, etc...
This one is perfect.
What is the difference between corners and fast corners?
which one is better?
here's the quote
"What's Fast Corners?
I've made the fade animation when tapping a corner instant so that the corner expanding animation plays more smoothly. Basically this just reduces the number of simultaneous animations going on resulting in less work. Even on my HDPI Samsung Galaxy S this made a slight difference in performance. The tweak is non-trivial and the change is extremely minor but for users with LDPI and MDPI devices this should improve that animation."
I actually tried both, and I recommend fast corners. Seems to look much smoother, though both are awesome

@djkekko89 : Maybe try renaming it to Home.apk and then move to system/app, fix permissions, & reboot. Or uninstall your current Home(have another launcher installed so you can still use your phone) and then try installing normally. Not sure if either will work but it's worth a try...
Remember to back up your current Home.apk as these methods will replace it.

So, bad news. SOMEBODY, spilled something on my laptop and now it won't even boot up. So it may be a while. But what you can do is take a existing xrecovery zip, unzip it with root explorer delete everything except "META-INF" folder, create a new folder named "system", enter that folder and create another folder called "app" and then copy the launcher in there, zip it up using root explorer and you have a xrecovery zip

[Q] Q about status/notification bar

Is there any way to customize the bar at the top of the screen? I can hide it, but I'd rather change the colors of the icons to match the rest of my phone. Is there a way to theme it? Sorry if this has been addressed before, didn't see it.
I believe its in the framework jar file

The best thing to do is push it to /system from adb and recovery then run fix perms. The zip you will download will probably not flash properly.

Not sure I follow. I'm kind of an idiot when it comes to this stuff. However, in the zip file of the rom I d/led and flashed a while back, I found the SystemUI.apk. also, i see where it has the base launcher as ADW Launcher blah blah blah. Can I remove that, and put my favorite launcher in, and then flash it, and it wouldhave that launcher as it's base?
I need to get into a live chat with one of you smart guys, to get you to teach me some of this knowledge so I'm not in here asking so much stupid stuff.

How do I do that? Is there anyone who has used this site before and got it to work fine? I'm just scared I'm gonna mess something up.. Are there any other sites like it?
follow the directions on the site. Then instead of transfering the zip to your sdcard, unzip it and pull the systemui.apk out. Transfer that to your sdcard and push it back to your phone.

I'm sorry, smack me if you want, i'm still learning. But, what do you mean by 'push'?

[GUIDE] [MOD]Galaxy Note II Style Messaging App.

This is my 1st real guide, so bear with me!
I am not liable if you damage your phone in anyway! if you have any doubts, don't do it!!
I confirm this is working great on my Sprint S4, so ill give yall a step by step of how I did it.
Now of course you can get this by flashing Free Gs4 rom, but if you don't like that rom, or just like a different rom, but still want that split view toggle effect then this is for you! Im using it on Force Rom, so I am only going to recommend using this method on TW based roms. and only for sprint, it may crash if used for other carriers.
1.Download FreeGs4 Rom.
https://www.copy.com/s/W602hFj2bLqR/FreeGS4-v2.0.0SPR-Clark44.zip
2. Download whatever TW rom you decide on. go ahead and flash it, root it first of course (you know the steps)
3. I recommend going ahead and downloading droid explorer. That will help out the process, just so your pc see's the apk's right.
http://de.codeplex.com/releases/view/107423
4. Open up the FreeGs4 rom, go to System/Apps/SecMms.apk, go ahead and drag SecMms.apk and put it on your desktop.
5. Plug your device in and make sure USB debugging on (I recommend having it on at all times).
6. From your Desktop go ahead and drag the SecMms.apk and put it on the root of your external sd card( you could use your internal if need be)
7. Go to Playstore and download Root Explorer, once in root explorer, find your /system/app/SecMms.apk
8. Rename your SecMms.apk. Rename it SecMms.apk.bak
9. Now go to where you placed the SecMms.apk from FreeGs4, and copy it.
10. Paste the FreeGs4 SecMms.apk into /System/Apps
11. Reboot and Enjoy! :laugh::laugh:
(you shouldn't have to change permissions on the FreeGs4 SecMms.apk, they should already be ready to go!
Please give me thanks, if this helped you out at all,
and reply if you have any questions.
I check back pretty frequently!
Heres a screen shot!
Why would someone download a whole ROM (1.5 GB) for just one apk. Just upload the secMms.apk from that ROM and it should work fine for all.

Have rotation turned on and rotate your phone then it will look like that! Might have to turn it on in the messaging settings somewhere, not sure.

[Stock] International Note 3 Bootanimation

Hi guys I have tried to get the stock international note 3 bootanimation along with the stock boot animation sound of the international note 3. I have tried on mine and it works ok. Remember to make a backup copy of the files you will replace in case you something happen or you dont want it.
Directions
1. Unzip the folder
2. Copy the bootsamsung.qmg, bootsamsungloop.qmg, bootsamsungmini.qmg, bootsamsungminiloop.qmg on system/media folder ( Make sure you correct the permission)
3. Copy the PowerOn.ogg on system/media/audio/ui (Make sure the permission is correct)
4. Reboot and no more At&t Crap bootanimation
UPDATE: Added shutdown animation of stock international
1. Unzip the folder
2. Copy the shutdown.qmg to system/media folder Make sure the permission is correct (now on at&t just removed the shutdownloop.qmg not sure if that file is present on t-mo but you can remove it or just transfer it to your sd card)
3. Reboot and you wont have the loop circle animation when you shutdown your device
Thank you sinichi21! Works perfectly. Finally rid of the last att crapware on my Straight Talk device.

Verified that this does not trip Knox!
Thank you sir! I was trying to get rid of the AT&T boot animation before through Rom Toolbox but it just made my lockscreen flash on/off. This is a cleaner solution.
I opted to not use the sound file, but renamed the stock one to PowerOn.bak and now I have a silent boot.
Thanks!

Long press the .apk you just pasted and select PERMISSIONS and make sure you change permissions to match the original such as rw-r--r-- in this case. Make sure you do this for each .apk you paste so it matches permissions for the apk you are replacing.
wow it works awesome.. I just tried it on my bro's note 3.. thank u very much...
Wow thanks for the post, always thought this would be a little trickier. Don't know why people risk flashing "unknown" .zips to try and do this when all you gotta do is move a few files around but I digress. Thanks again for telling us the correct files, and for the ones you gave us it works perfect :thumbup:

As a quick side note, for anyone wanting to ditch boot sounds, the 'poweron.ogg' file can be renamed to 'nopoweron.ogg' or even removed to avoid boot sounds with any animation

Standard Disclaimer: It's your phone.. If you brick your phone, or it becomes self aware and takes over the world, I am not responsible.
Themed phone/contacts, Messaging, Calendar, and Accuweather. Has been tested on NG2 ROM. There is no fw-res modifications so it should work on any NG2 rom. (Sacs, Triforce, ect).
Thanks to @2WhiteWolves for testing on NAE. The apps work fine (calendar, Accuweather), but the priv-apps (SecPhone, contacts, and messaging) are very buggy and are not recomended for use. Thanks for testing for me.
NOTE: You will no longer have phone/contacts in your drawer. They are now BatPhone/Superfriends.
I will post screenshots in post 2 & 3
Download Link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzpfAdALNa_gQ00wSnphRUlWSEE/view?usp=sharing
There are 2 installation options
Full Installation:
Do a backup prior to flashing this or anything else
No wipe required
1) Download zip, put on phone storage
2)Install zip from SD
3)reboot and enjoy
Partial Installation:
1) Unzip and place wanted apk files on SD card
2) with root explorer, find corresponding apk in system/app or priv-app. rename to .bak EXAMPLE: SecPhone.apk.bak
3)Copy themed apk to proper folder, and set permissions to rw-r-r
4)reboot
If you have any issues you can just delete the themed apk then delete the .bak from the original and you will be back to stock.
Hope you enjoy it.

Cool theme. Don't know if you would be interested in or if you have already made a boot animation. But if you haven't, here is one with the Joker boot animation. If you want to test on NG2, I am still on NAE. But I don't know why it wouldn't work. It is on pg.70 and 71. If you don't like it I can delete this post.

Awesome, it looked good. I will test today. If want to try the theme, I'd love to have someone test it on the NAE. If you use the 2nd installation instructions, you can test a single apk before flashing.

Tried the SecPhone apk, did not work. Set permission, rebooted was still the same. No big deal, just wanted to try for you to see if it would on NAE. Don't really want an all theme batman, but I do think it is cool. Hopefully the boot animation works on the NG2 for you, please let me know if does or doesn't. It would/will be really cool for you to have Joker boot and batman theme :good:

I'm sorry it didn't, was going to show my nephews they would have thought it was cool, so that kinda sucks that I can't.

I tried it today. For some reason they shutdown animation works, but not the boot. I even renamed and flashed for sprint specific boot animation

I just flashed the Joker boot, everything worked start up boot and shutdown boot. Did you go into root explorer to system> media and do bootsamsung.qmg to bootsamsung.qmg.bak and same with bootsamsungloop.qmg to bootsamsungloop.qmg.bak ? This is what I did.
Don't know if that will make a difference or not.
Didn't have to rename or do that sprint specific boot animation.
I am on Odexed (mostly stock) Super S4 1.5 by at g_ding84 and still on bootloader MF9.

I'll rename them then copy and paste them instead of flashing it. See if that works.

It didn't. And what is weird is that after naming them to .bak , the stock animation still works.

If you did just the Sec Phone.apk, you would still have the stock phone. The dialer is in SecContacts.apk. The phone apk handles everything after the call is made.

Ok, I will try again later today.

I went through today and kept changing the boot animations to .baking until I didn't have any boot animation. My phone was using the XAS_bootanimation. I don't even know what carrier that is. But it is working now.

Did the SecContacts_OSup.apk, it worked [emoji2] But when I push on the contact pic to get to their info, it goes black and goes back to home page. Maybe it's because I need to do all your theme.?
It's cool that the bat icon shows when you push on the numbers [emoji106].
I might leave it this way till I get to show my nephews.
Edit: Glad you got it going [emoji41] [emoji106]

You don't have to do the whole theme, but SecPhone/SecContacts work together. Having them both might help, or it might just be a little buggy on NAE. Try them together.
Now that I got the boot animation working I changed the boot sound. (It plays Batman Ridin') If you want to try it I attached it. unzip, copy the .ogg and paste it in system/media/audio/ui. It is not a flashable zip.

Tried the sound it worked. Did the SecPhone.apk with the SecContacts_OSup.apk it didn't help. In superfriends sliding to call made the android process stop working, also dialing did same thing. Deleted it and was able to call out again, it also let's me get to text messaging by sliding, does everything except for getting to contact info. The contact pics are still there, plus on the ones that don't have pics with phone #'s show what you did. Noticed in my goggle account everything had synced except for people details. Sorry I'm not on NG2 to actually tell you if things work or not. I'm glad I can show off your work on the SecContacts_OSup.apk. and the sound.
