Ok,
Since people have had some problems with losing reboot options, xloud, etc. from flashing older packages I am going to remove them & make this thread exclusively for Wolfbreak's 2.3.3 rom v6 (or latest). As of now it is the rom I use and the only one I can test properly and guarantee working. I am only including the framework-res.apk in these zips and not framework.jar or android.policy.jar, etc. so they will not add functionality to other roms and will only work with roms that share the same features as WB's.
Remember you can make a theme with a percentage battery at UOT kitchen or use one of the other mods or themes around if you have issues.
*Note-You will not need to mount anything special when installing these. Flash as a custom zip in xrecovery as you normally would.
Zipaligned,for her pleasure.

Thanks to MrRusch & _calum_ for doing this originally
Thanks Frosty666 for initial screens & testing
Thanks to 10asseye & zorglub08 for the icon fix & keeping up with this when I wasn't.
Hit "Thanks" if you use it
Great work, we needed something like this. The default battery icon is useless.
I'm just backing up and downloading now. I will report back in about 10 minutes with the results. I'm using Wolfs's 2.3.3.
EDIT:
Works fine on Wolfs 2.3.3. Only one small bug; when charging, on the lock screen where it displays the battery level, the icon is slightly cut off at the top and bottom. No biggie though. Good work AyDee.
Screenshots are attached.
Great, thanks for confirming! Between my daughter's birthday and other stuff I haven't had a second to sit down & flash the SE 2.3 yet.. Tomorrow!!
I will fix the icons that are cut off and make an xrecovery zip soon.
And hopefully we'll see some themes pop up in the next few days using this
This is now flashable via xrecovery.
Also, the lockscreen images should be fixed.
Sorry for the double-post... Cheers!
Flashed worked absolutely fine.

I have installed new Wolf firmware 006 and this Battery Mod crashes when you press power button.
I was loving this circle mod until I started to investigate (why crashes with Wolf Mod) and If I can solve it and I found A VERY STRANGE THING (for me):
Can you tell me why do a battery mod that only changes Notification Icons does need ALL this strange permissions?:
*Your Personal Information: read contact data, read user defined diccionary, write contact data
*Services that cost you money: directly call phone numbers
*Your messages: modify Gmail, read Gmail
*Your location: coarse network/gps location
*Network communication: control near field communication, create Bluetoot connections, full internet access
*Your accounts: use te authentication credentials of an account
*Phone Calls: read phone state and identity
*Hardware controls: change your audio settings, record audio
*Systems tools: bluetoot admin, change Wifi state, change UI settings, disable keylock, modify global system settings, mount and unmount filesystems, prevent phone from sleeping, write access point name settings, write sync settings.
I fixed the charging/low battery icons, one pixel line was cut at the bottom.

WTH are you talking about? How are you even trying to install this? If you are trying to install framework-res.apk with an app installer it won't work. Framework-res.apk may need those permissions since it tells the ui how to behave for all of those actions but I honestly have never dealt with permissions when installing.

Awesome, got your PM & I'll update soon.
I originally made this since UOT Kitchen was down and there was no circle battery mod out yet. I will continue to update it to make it easy to just download & install, but remember you can make a theme with a percentage battery at UOT kichen or use one of the other mods or themes around if you have issues.
Cheers!
*Edit- There is a fix for Wolfbreak's 006 rom, see OP
Yes i did installed with xrecovery in update 005. But when I've installed firm 006 at first circle battery wasn't functioning so i tryed to extract it and install the apk only to check if that helped and this permissions issue came up... I really dont like that this mod has all this permissions.

It should be default. AOSP Nexus ROMs have it. Even if not, I will still try to add it, because without it it looks just weird for me...

On galaxy nexus when you are pulling down the notification tray, things behind it slowly fade to dark as you pull the tray. This should have been default.

Any idea of fixing Phone dial-er app?
Layout:
The erase key is on right side of input box,
Shouldn't the be in bottom right? sorry if I'm wrong, but i used to the bottom right.
Reason for the fix : When you choose a contact from smart dial, the first few numbers are hidden, only the last few digits are visible and make the user feels like it wasn't chosen. I'm using the international format like +YYXXXXXXXXXX ...
Search bug
Are you able to search a contact from call log tab or contact tab (not the people app)? I'm kind of missing it.

Flashed the current update.zip ....
Appreciate the blue cursor in the input box
Ideas:
Is it possible to have blue active icons in the notification drawer? Let that be white at in-active state.
Also the dial-er app drop down arrow while getting more than one search result (Where is it??? CM bug?)
The missed call notification is now in black & white. Is it correct?

1st of all, I changed all icons as they should be. That means, back/white icons are in holo theme, official in Android 4.0.4+ now. The icons before with exp. build 1 were GB ones, because in android source repository are no JB icons for LDPI/MDPI yet - I guess that is placeholder for later... So I came with at least this solution because I don't think they will continue with LDPI (old) resolution support for icons, because they wasn't even in ICS...
And for the blue icons... I'm trying to make it as close as possible to official CMX/JB as possible, because for our resolution default layouts are just uggly.. No blue icons in CMX, so no icons that I will do Just official JB because for LDPI is yet undone. It will be good to have theese fixes merged to marcellusbe's port so it wont have this type of issues.
How do I know what MODS I want if I do not know what MODS there are?
I have been reading around and there seem to be a lot of MODS that people reference, but I have no clue what they may be. I also do not know if the MODS are all TW/AOSP specific. I understand some will only work on TW ROMS like using the Note II keyboard. But others I am not sure on.Will they only work on certain ROMS so you can not flash or install them on others. What about Other Carriers? Can mods in the T-Mobile section work here?
Is there a list of MODS out there and what they do? (Searching for MOD is a little bit of a lost cause)
Some examples I am not even sure are MODS or not
Volume hack - to increase the overall volume on the phone (forget where I saw this one)
LED Notification modifications - in the AOSP roms a lot have a setting to allow to change the LED notification (color and flash rate) per app.
Dialer search matches numbers in contacts and call logs along with contacts (from Omega ROM in international S3)
Then, how do you know if the MOD you find is one you can use? The one that comes to mind is the Long Volume Press to skip. I have seen where this works sometimes but not others. I know, a lot of questions, but I am just not clear on what mods affect which files and how they each affect each other.
So if people could tel me what MODSs they are aware of and what they do that would be great. I would even start to search for more if I had a clue how to answer some of the questions above. I would be willing to compile the list if that would help too.
Thanks
Walt.

If you go to each ROM thread the devs list what mods and tweaks are in the ROM. They even give you a link to the mods/tweaks, There are too many mods to compile a list for and by the time I finish this post there will be 20 more created.

But that is not true. I went into the first rom link in the android development section and this is a small section of what was listed under features.
*Clock alingment toggle*
*am/pm size toggle*
*day of the week toggle*
*longpress to skip tracks toggle*
*keyboard switcher toggle*
*battery icon picker toggle*
*MIUI Battery Bar Toggle*
*Re-Themed To be JB Aosp Looking*
Now there are no links to any of these. And are they actually a mod that anyone can use? Something rom specific? This all goes back to a lot of my other questions.

Those would already be in the rom, that's why they're listed like that in the rom's OP.
Mods are typically posted in the themes & apps section. Whatever mod you want, if its not included in the rom you're using, you should take a look there. For instance, there are a couple volume mods in the theme & app section. For the per app LED colors, you could use Light Flow if you want to adjust this regardless of AOSP or TW since often times you can't adjust LED colors for TW roms. Depending on what you're looking for, you could find the mod in the section I mentioned, if its not included in the rom you want to use.
The links are usually names of the devs the ROM creators thanked. Not all of them do that. For example if you go to the Plasma VI thread the creator made some names linkable.
Hello everybody!
I recently left my "Apple Bubble" and caved in and bought the Galaxy Note 8.0. Now, i've had an Iphone for years, and i would consider myself to be accustomed to jailbreaking. However, ever since i picked up the Note 8.0 and researched on rooting, I've come to notice that not only does it seem more technical and risky, but also the bar for learning at a grass root levels is high! i've looked through forums and youtube videos of people to explain it in the most layman terms, and even though i learned enough to get started, its like walking through a forest trying to find a direct answer for a topic.
So, here is my general question to the community:
1.) How do you add custom themes made by people for the Galaxy Note 8.0? A step-by-step process would be much appreciated.
2.) If i need to root my device, can you recommend a root for the Note 8.0 that wont disable my S-Pen features?
3.)How do i change the system sound and boot logo of my device? Does that require rooting? If possible, can you provide a link to where i can download some?
4.) Any suggestions for must-have apps for a new android user like myself?
I really want to learn how to use android devices, just so i can trick my tablet out with the most slickest looking themes. Any advice or arrows in the right direction is much appreciated!
1.) How do you add custom themes made by people for the Galaxy Note 8.0? A step-by-step process would be much appreciated.
You don't need to root for that. Basically you replace the default launcher with a third party one that supports themeing etc and there are many available on play store free as well as paid. for starters you can try go launcher or buzz launcher and try few themes etc to get hang of how it all goes.
2) If i need to root my device, can you recommend a root for the Note 8.0 that wont disable my S-Pen features?
Root won't disable your s-pen features, what you do after that can. like installing a different rom etc.
I have not rooted my device yet, but read and look about cf-autoroot as that is most used and high success rate, make sure it's applicable for your device model.
3.)How do i change the system sound and boot logo of my device? Does that require rooting? If possible, can you provide a link to where i can download some?
System Sounds, perhaps you can select different sound files for notifications and stuff. but anything more you'll need to be rooted for this.
4.) Any suggestions for must-have apps for a new android user like myself?
its a very subjective and objective thing as many apps exist to accomplish same tasks.
but here are a few I can't work without (on this device) :
1.ES-File explorer. (complete file management with lan/ ftp access. share files/folder among devices on same wifi network.
2. A Third party Music player (I have purchased both poweramp (very good for most) and neutronMP (for audiophile quality and Network mounts)).
3. Google keep (notes and reminders)
4. Pocket (read later)
5. Diskusage
6. Antivirus (I use avg)
7. Sketchbook pro
These along with what already comes installed is the bare minimum (along with book/pdf readers) for my needs from the device.
>>
I really want to learn how to use android devices, just so i can trick my tablet out with the most slickest looking themes. Any advice or arrows in the right direction is much appreciated!
Already partially answered in 1, look into different widgets etc and combination of a theme and widgets should get you there.

Thanks for the suggestions! I've checked out both launchers, and to my surprise, they work just like Dreamboard for the iphone. But if you dont mind, there's some more questions I would like to ask...
1.) Are there any themes for Android that changes the UI for the tablet?
2.) Any suggestions for some kool looking or productive widgets?

If by changing the UI you mean chaning the internals look of menus , settings etc,
then i don't think there are any apps that would do it.
You would have to root and either change to a another ROM that allows some tweaks in there or would have to edit / flash resources into system which depending on how much and what they affect can cause issues with s-pen or other things,if touchwiz (samsung's skin and rom) specific options are not accounted for.
2.) Most of the widgets I have are come with their respective apps themselves. The only widgets I use for looks are
1: GIGANTICON, allows for different sized icons for apps on home screen.
2. Dashclock which has large amount of plugins, based on needs.
Dude if you want to theme... Wanam is the go to hands down, simply install xposed from xda and get wanam from The play store. Wanam offers literally everything you can imagine for customizing your stock 4.2.2 and higher touchwiz. I've themed with other methods, but wanam is not only the easiest, most strait forward method, but also the most stable method I've ever seen. I've pretty much quit flashing roms after I discovered wanam and only flash custom kernels now, since I can do everything a rom could offer with one simple app.

Yeah, I just started using Wanam. and it's pretty good, but I wish there was a way to implement a complete theme on my GN8. Nova and Wanam get me part of the way there, but thene are still artifacts that take away from the complete aesthetic experience. For example, I can't get the items indicated by the yellow arrows below to take the changes I've made in Wanam (Notification Title text and background), and there seems to be no way to change the separator lines between Quick Settings tiles. If anyone has a solution, I'd LOVE to hear it!

Yes download a text pack, and side load it in the system with root explorer.
You can theme the panel your pointing at... its notification title bar in wanam theme setting.
You can also change the black background of notification panel and settings background in wanam with soothe pictures or colors, by using system holo dark theme, and notification panel.
You can theme nearly 100% of your device wroth wanam and 100% between wanam and xblast

Yeah, I saw the notification title stuff in Wanam, but as I said in my post, any changes I make to those particular items don't take. I've changed them in Wanam several times, and rebooted after each change, to no avail. As you can see, everything else does. Might be due to the ROM I'm using (Civato's Flex-Beam).
In search of this elusive "near 100%" theming you mention, can you please tell me what you use to theme the rest of the Touchwiz UI, such as Settings pages (which I see you did), progress bars, pop-up dialogs (modal or otherwise) keyboard suggestion text, ui controls, quick settings divider bars, etc? These all go towards that 100% theming I'm going for, but I couldn't find any of these items in either Wanam or xblast tools. I'd be very appreciative to you if you could please point out what I'm missing. TIA again!

Also, can you please enlighten me on the procedure for changing the system font? I found an apk for the Roboto light font, but I don't know how to change the system font. Thanks again!

Dude you can see how heavily themed my setup is right. Here's the thing, there's no trick I've told you already...I only used wanam. There's no secret or anything to it I simply did all the selection, making sure you switch the on toggle at the top and hit aapply for each different part you theme. Don't do 50 at a time, change a few, reboot change a few..There is no grand secret I'm hiding from you lol just trial and error and you'll figure it out.
As for font change...use the search man there's prolly 15 different guides on xda alone..

Leslie!!!
I am creating this R&D thread for a project I've been working on for most of this year.
The project named "oZoP" is an All-in-One mods/themes/tweaks for the phone.
The plan for the project is to make it a universally compatible for ALL stock based rom (AOSP is not and never will be supported or compatible)
I will probably release oZoP ConTroL as a stand alone zip mod that will do most of the work and include most or the options.
Eventually I will release the full Aroma oZoP (One Zip One Place) that will include a full rom with all bloat files (all optional of course), along with various other tools needed to build you phones setup the way you like it.
The reason for this thread is to receive valuable and needed user feedback, recommendations and requests.
The feedback will be used to build "OUR" project into a bug free, totally stable experience that will have something for everyone!!
We will get into more detail about what info is needed and how we can get it all put together.
I will add more details as I update this thread. There are A LOT of mods and a lot of info so this will take time.
If you are really that interested and just need to know more, you can always take a glance at some of my other projects,
Most of these projects are simply just sections of oZoP that have been pulled out as a stand alone mod.
Here are a few samples of the mods during the build phase (some features may or may not appear the same or make it to the initial public release)
SCREEN RECORDING VIDEO PREVIEWS
STATUSBAR SECTION:
Statusbar part.1
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
PULLDOWN QUICK SETTINGS SECTION:
Header
Expanded QuickSettings Count
Animated Pressed Toggle Icons
NavBar
Lockscreen
oZoP Theme Engine:
Keyboard Background (with users choice)
Keyboard key bg and text coloring
Full System Background
These are recording of the animations, but they also are a quick example of some of the options from the oZoP Theme Engine where everything you see that is themed is mix and match how ever you choose
Stock
Missing Link
Nexus 7
iOS
Flyme
Blur
Google Pixel
MIUI
Full-screen Caller ID
As you can see from what I have in the previews above There are a lot of options and configurations possibility and that's only about 1/5th of what is actually available at this point today.
With all those options come lots of possible conflicts with the various devices and variants that are planned to be on the list of compatible devices.
That brings me to the reason for this thread... I have the H918 Tmobile and may or may not need several users with other devices to be the support section to check compatibility!
To be clear, I have been building this project since March and have recently finished running clean install testing for the past 10 days to ensure all the defaults are set properly and that there are zero bugs that I can detect with my setup.
Again, just because everything works as it is intended for me with my model phone, carrier variant and app and setting setup, doesn't mean it will be the same for everyone.
This thread will hopefully eliminate any possibilities of this not working for everyone and ensures a wonderful experience
You may or may not have seen the following projects. They are in fact sections of oZoP pulled out as stand alone mods.
They have been sort of "silent" compatibility tests that have passed with flying colors. There has been no reports of things not working.
oZoP Modz - Full-screen Caller ID
oZoP MoDz - System Animations
BOOT/SHUTDOWN ANIMATION CHANGER
The next test is being announce as such and is starting taking place right here right now.
This has been tested privately for the last few days and the confirmed Roms and devices include Weta (all US carriers), NATF and one I can't remember right now
DEVICE REQUIREMENTS:
1. Rooted
2. Stock based deodex rom
oZoP MoDz Notifications and more
download Weta here
download for NATF rom
Included:
*volume slider sound toggle*
*volume panel timeout*
*remove ongoing notification for Powersave mode*
*quicksetting airplane toggle warning*
*quicksetting sync toggle warning*
*hide popup for incompatible charging slow mode*
*set trigger for low battery warning*
*set trigger for Critical low battery warning*
*home button pressed bg color*
*Google home button animation*
*colors for Google animation dots*
Report bug properly to get my support
Of course there are many way to properly report bugs and ALL of these ways have one thing in common, THEY ALL REQUIRE VERY DETAILED NOTES of the issue!
I'm moy goimg to go deep into how detailed you could get because lets face it, most people that report improperly are the ones who don't read and probably are going to read this! HaHaHa...
To get support from me I only ask for some simple things
1. What device, and rom you are running
2. What is the issue (no boot, fc everywhere, fc only certain app etc...)
3. Which option did you select
4. Did you get the install log
5. Did you use the restore.zip option to get back running
6. Do other choices share the same effect
That looks like a lot, but it really is the minimum amout of info need to troubleshoot!
Provide me that and I'll do my best to fix things and make this fun for everyone.
If you post things like
"Doesn't work", "bootloop" or anyone other similar post that have no value and help development is no way, actually these kinds of post only put development behind amd slow progress die the fact that anyone who cam help has to waste their time reading it!
If these kind of post ever come up, its best to ignore the lazy person and not clog the thread with flaming replies as that too slows development!

Just curious I could have missed it but will the ability to turn off the annoying battery full notification be included in the mods? And any chance the ROM could include WETA like abilities to modify what is on the second screen (ie: 3min clock)?
Thanks for sharing all this by the way. Exciting times for our V20!
I noticed today that if I do a bulk execute on the second screen mods work on weta. But if I try to just modify them under ui mods individual it causes the system ui to crash. I'm on Verizon weta 5.1 #2

For the clock I have mod native built with control of many thing which do include layout position. I also have native build battery controls including the option to switch between stock modded or 3 minit batteries.
I have stock battery position left/right, but so far it doesn't work right for second screen so the battery will be in the stock position on the right for now.
The reason for this thread is for suggestion, recommendations.
That being said, i currently do not have a switch for the full battery notification.... Currently... I will be adding that and you can expect to see it in the official release!
Thank you

For the 3 replies about having compatibility issues, I want to say this does not come to a surprise and I can assure you that this will not be the case with the official release.
I suspect the reason for this fc issue is because WETA is a very customized rom and some of the mods are probably pushing files the the sysui which I modded and the old files are conflicting because they do not include the referances to the edits I made for the animated home button etc.
This will not be an issue when all the oZoP files are in place.
So i also want to clear this up...
Once the official oZoP is ready and gets installed on to your rom, it will override ALL current mods of your rom. The mod includes most core system files that devs mod.
Don't worry though, i am pretty sure that ANY mods you currently have will be available with oZoP.
If we find out that there is a mod which I haven't included, just let me know and i will definitely do what i can to add the feature.
Sorry for the inconvenience. I will make things more clear for the future as well as add a restore failsafe to the zips.

Thank you sir and the previews don't give any justice to what is really going on!! This will definitely keep you busy for a while. There are a lot of variations of the mods amf theme options!
Thank you all for the replys and feedback.
Remember, this is the time and place to make requests for things you would like to see built in to a stock based rom!
Cant wait for your rom. It looks sick!

I think it would be cool to have a working color coded battery bar for the second screen especially for the AOD part as it's easier to read than a small white battery icon and even the 3minit battery is still pretty tiny when trying to see it at a glance. Not sure if it is do-able
2nd screen is awesome on this phone just wish there was more ways to customize it. Be nice to force it to max brightness as well as being able to increase the time it displays notifications like text messages and stuff.

Again, thank you and this is what this thread is about, getting things we all want in one mod!
So for battery bar in SS, i already have the options for top/bottom placement, regular (left to right) or centered style, charging animation on/off, size and colorpicker for any color. I do not have it color coded, I assume you mean by percentage of battery remaining?
I can definitely look at adding to my code, but that may come in future updates...
As for the other battery options, stock battery is only white if you choose to leave it that way. The battery icon has color optiins for background, foreground and in-battery precentage colors. The icon has several styles including hide, circle and dotted cirlces. 3minit is 3minit, no need to go into that one.
As you can see, there are currently options that could hopefully satisfy your battery needs.
I totally aggree about needing more controls for SS options like brightness and screen notification timeouts.
@Zacharee1 and I have been looking deeper to add options for pulse and text color controls, but again this one may have to be for future updates as well...
Thank you for your interest and participation here.
Thanks for taking time to clear up as to why we're having issues. Your mods are awesome. And I commend you for putting the time in to do this for this phone. ?? ?? Im sure everyone in this forum with this phone is extremely grateful to you for doing this, as we don't have many choices for roms and such for a phone that is a year old. It amazes me, my old old HTC desire and galaxy s4 are still getting roms released yet this phone is all but abandoned. Lol anyway thank you immensely and I look forward to the finished product. (I will also beta test any releases you push if needed)

Thank you for the patience and understanding of working through things!
I don't plan on getting a mew phone for at least another yr so you guys are should get ready for a fun ride on oZoP!
@KUSOsan just finished up the Full battery switch and love your suggestions so keep em coming. There can't be that many left.. Haha that mod make puts the total keys used for included mods at 407! Thats 407 different settings some pf which include 50+ choices!
Do the math, its basically unlimited possibilities!

I need to write them down because I can never think of stuff on the spot but it's always whenever the problem arises.
Most of my suggestions pretty much center around the 2nd screen as there is just a disappointing lack of customization for it considering that is the biggest defining feature about the V20.
I was hoping LG would add more stuff to it after they talked big about focusing on the 'V' series as their main contender with the G series taking a backseat compared to it but with the V30 coming out sans a 2nd screen I have a bad feeling that if anything they are going to abandon any 2nd screen updates completely or just streamline it (i.e. neuter it with less features but make it look prettier) for the Oreo update if this phone ever gets it.
I also have a bad feeling that Oreo is going to be a long ways out for this phone so your timing with the mods and ROM are perfect ?
I'm extremely interested in this ozop rom. Thanks for puting all you time and effort into this. Will this work for the sprint ls997 model? If so which rom will we need to be running?
