i privately mod - theme all of my android devices. both the s4 and the optimus g pro lags like hell as we all know. we can either blame hardware or the software. im going with the software. the permanent fix will be custom roms and kernels but until then i was digging through the systemUI and framework-res and i think i found the source of some of the lag.
it's in the framework-res / animations folder. in here you can see standard animation xml's but also touchwiz ones that were added by samsung for all of the new gimmicky features and gestures. so i performed an experiment. i opened up my framework and added aosp animations from a cm10.1 rom, added the res back to the apk and pushed it to my device. BOOM, lag gone for the most part and smoother animations. before this i tried everything including deodexing, debloating and turning off all features.
i just thought i post my findings for the devs and anyone who feels like getting their hands a bit dirty.
enjoy! :good:
EDIT:
http://www.mediafire.com/?mbop6l3yow612vt
here is the modded framework-res. push via adb to system/framework and restart your device. this is a stock, unmodded framework other than what i replaced with the animations. this is a deodexed apk, so don't try on any odexed rom. THIS IS FOR AT&T ONLY!
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU BLOW UP YOUR DEVICE. BACKUP YOUR CURRENT FRAMEWORK-RES BEFORE PUSHING THE NEW ONE IN CASE YOU HAVE ANY ISSUES.
IF this works the mods can move this to the dev section.

i don't think what im seeing is a placebo either, the window animation and close animations are really smooth now.
Sounds great. I have added a couple systemui.apk's but the jerky hesitation at times is really agrevating.

as long as its deodexed, a at&t rom and no existing mods it should work.

Yes you must be deodexed. Been testing, the lag is much better but not totally gone. I'm going to do more searching tomorrow.

You can't Odin a deodexed ROM. And there's no flashing. You just deodex your current ROM, then copy and paste his framework-res.apk into /system/framework/.

Were you on the newest ota? And are you sure you were deodexed? If anybody else reports it I'll take it down. Weird as it pushed and works fine on my device.

Yeah it sounds like he didn't set the permissions on the .apk before booting.
For anyone else who wants to try this, copy the framework-res.apk to your /sdcard (if you're using adb and the framework-res.apk is on your C:\ drive, use the following adb command without the quotes: "adb push C:\framework-res.apk /sdcard") and then use the following adb commands:
Code:
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
mv /system/framework/framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk.bak
cp /sdcard/framework-res.apk /system/framework
chmod 644 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
rm data/dalvik-cache/*
reboot
This saves a copy of your original framework-res.apk as "framework-res.apk.bak", in the event that it goes wrong it's just a simple adb command away to revert back to your old version.
I added the animations from the OP's mod to the framework that I use, which comes from DocBarebones' theme add-on for the i9505/i9500 S4 variant. Everything has a dark/gray tint, as I always like to black out my phone as much as possible.
Here is the file, just push it using the same method(s) above. Works great for me!
http://www.mediafire.com/?twg26703t0g6mu5
so over 600 views on the thread. can anybody confirm it at least pushed and worked correctly without bootlooping? i just want to make sure its ok to keep the download link up.

This is a port of untermensch's vibrant mod found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=811532
*completed mod now available with aosp lockscreen included*
*note: these mods include framework-res.apk and need to be included in the base of a theme or rom/flashing over the top of one will overwrite previous theming done to framework-res with stock images and break some pre-existing mods*
Thanx and credit to him for getting me this far, I have made a few changes to his instructions to make it work on epic. The below mod only has the reboot option added. I have yet to try his latest instructions to add reboot recovery but it might work too. Just wanted to get this over to the Epic side for discussion and help if it isn't as easy to port the rest of it.
Add reboot option to power off menu http://www.mediafire.com/?hoetfjbq77hm77s flash in clockwork recovery (its only android policy.jar) and make sure your system is deodexed. We can add more things into it to get android policy jar mods to play together later.
Here's a .zip that has both the AOSP lockscreen mod and reboot button mod together: http://www.mediafire.com/?010dchn522nxge9
Complete mod port plus aosp lockscreen click here
Note: this .zip includes framework-res.apk,framework.jar and android.policy. jar. The recovery function gets you to stock recovery but you can still get into clockwork by flashing the update.zip you should have on your sdcard already. If any one knows how to get it to go straight to clockwork like rom manager does I would like to have it do that.
Complete mod port plus aosp lockscreen-no full battery popups click here
All three in one now, this is just like the one above but also has services.jar
Complete mod port only click here
Includes framework-res.apk,framework.jar and android.policy.jar
Complete mod port with no popups click here
Includes framework-res.apk,framework.jar,services.jar and android.policy. jar

just asking cause yesterday I flashed a normal app! flash 10.1 and my phone was stuck blackscreened lol and had to odin ect AND I am very happy with the phone now so I dont wan't to result to that again
I've been waiting for this to get ported - thank you!
It flashed with no problem, but it replaced my Vanilla lock screen with the TouchWiz one. If I flash the Vanilla lock screen back on, will the reboot option still be there?
Holdin down power+voldown+camera after touching reboot gets you into recovery. I know a software button is better but in the mean time.

The only way for certain is to re-theme this framwork-res with your images. You might try swapping just your drawable-hdpi folder into this one and if there is anything left out track it down and add it back. I am not sure where values folder goes when it re-compiled so you don't want to write over it as it will cause issues.
OP has a new .zip with all three mods in one now, let me know if there are any issues with it.

What xmls did you edit? What I was getting at is use this as a base and re-do the theme to it but if you accidentally over write the values folder it will not work properly. Since I don't know where valuse goes when its been compiled(it only shows when decompiled) you run the risk of breaking the mod. Its certainlgy worth a shot though.

For the Gingerbread ROM's i always did em myself using this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24370886#post24370886
But since ICS came its harder because if you only modify the framework.res.apk file you end up with CRT effect and straight after it the screen blinks and then goes off.
For ICS you also need to mod some other files but my android skills are like zero so im stuck too....

Right after the boot splash, the screen goes black. Need to go into Recovery by force (3 button combo) and reflash the ROM...

Why should we put it in the internal SD? I keep all my flashables on the external SD (Serioux 16GB class 6) and never had any troubles...
Some people also recommended using the internal to flash from rather than external, on the Motorola ATRIX.
Any particular reason why? Scientific explanation

So Sammy puts so much work in the frameworks for every (small, I'd say) update? CRT animation was flickering even on 4.0.3 (XXLQ3 - RocketROM) and 4.0.4 LRK and LR6. I know CRT is tricky on ICS in general or so devs say?

For those of you who are using cm10 builds and are tired of seeing Verizon Wireless on your lockscreen and notification pulldown this will allow you to remove or change it to something else. I take no credit for this all credit goes to spunks3 for making the post over in the nexus forums, I just tried his method and it happened to work on our phone, also belair56 for the original find as well as dakota0206 for his post on the thread giving the correct eri.xml.
PLEASE NOTE: I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE DONE TO YOUR PHONE, MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY MODS SUCH AS THIS!
1) Download eri.xml onto your desktop or some folder you will remember where it has been placed.
2) Open "eri.xml" with something such as NotePad or WordPad and edit everywhere you see "Whatever you want or delete this and nothing will show up". You can simply change the text or delete the text between the quotations and nothing will show up.
3) Save "eri.xml" and copy it to the root of your SD Card.
4) Open Root Explorer or an app similar, copy "eri.xml" from your SD card to "/data" directory. Please make sure you are not placing it in /sdcard/data
5) Also make sure that eri.xml has the same permissions as in the thumbnail below.
6) Reboot, and Enjoy!

Is this only for AOSP JB ROMs? It doesn't seem to work on Synergy JB v.2.

Is that a touchwiz Rom? Sorry I'm not familiar with Verizon roms but Touchwiz roms need to have a value changed in the framework. Not as easy as this eri.xml

Yeah it is a Touchwiz rom based on AT&T's JB leak. I will take a look in the framework.
Anyone wanna make a flashable zip for just Verizon Wireless. That would be awesome

I just ran a search for eri.xml and string.xml on my Verizon S3 running JellyWiz and didn't find either file.

Finally!! After thousands of boot loops I got it working. There are several .diff's for implementing this mod in android.policy.jar, but what I forgot: this works only on a completely deodexed ROM and mine was only half deodexed. It is possible to run deodexed and odexed system apk's side by side, but you must not(!) run a deodexed framework with odexed apk's - this was my learning curve
Summary: If you are on a fully deodexed 4.1.2 JB ROM (I am on 91.2.26001 Retail.en.EU), simply copy the android.policy.jar to /system/framework, set the permissions to rw-r--r-- and reboot.
MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP BEFORE, just in case!!
If you want to incorporate this into your ROM (Omar?), I attached the needed smali's too.
If you are on an odexed ROM, here is a short help to deodex yourself:

Enjoy skipping music tracks in your pocket by long pressing volume without turning your screen on!
UPDATE: added CWM package for easy flashing.
Installed it right away! It works awesomely well on my phone I'm using PIlama 0.6.
If you keep on modding the stock rom like this we won't need to port CM. At least I'm not missing it
Keep on your great work. My Razr I is now as fun as my Nexus S had been before

Too many.
There are some tutorials here at XDA, just search. The thing is, you have to adapt the variables, that's a little bit research though.
Easiest way would be: Extract original android.policy.jar and compare it to my mod, then you'll see the differences.

The only problem that has to samsung and wanted to carry the Razr HD XT925 and compare when there is a big difference in the lines.
more okay, no problem.
Hug.
Not sure I understand what you mean...
Just try it: Take your own PhoneWindowManager.smali and compare it to my mod, that was the way I did it in addition to read several different How-To's.
Awesome!

This flash will work on my 982.50.20.xt890.brasil.en.br without problems? I miss this function badly...
Is your system deodexed? Then you may try it, but do a Nandroid backup before, so that you can roll back easily.
If it works, tell us, if not, tell us
But deodexed system is mandatory!
Hummm, I saw on Link2SD and the system Apps are all odexed. Then no go for me I think.
You can deodexed your system alone.

I ended up downloading an old version of the omar ROM that didn't have this mod done to it.

Hello fellow Note 5 users
Welcome to NoTe 5 "LiViNg oN tHe EdgE"
I have put together a simple stock-deodexed-debloated Rom.zip i put together myself
It is based off N920T C015 base. Thanks to @TEKHD for the use of his stock deodexed base!
I am not a Developer, im just a flash junky who finally made his own stockish rom with the additional features i liked and wanted to share it!
This is my 1st Rom I've ever posted on XDA, so be nice LOL and any help will be much appreciated:thumbup::
You are more than welcome to use any part of this Rom, just give credit to myself and anyone else mentioned please
This Rom will most likely not be updated, but with help from others with mods and other cool stuff we can add on the way, i will be more than happy to add if possible! No promises LOL
I AM IN NO WAY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS TO YOUR PHONE! SO FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK! AND ALWAYS MAKE A BACK UP!
Credits: @TEKHD For base @Chainfire for su

Thank you sir! I just wanted to make a stockish rom for our device with of course edge features and a few extras! And let the user mod it out the way they want to!
Well once I manage to get recompiling working and figured out I'll be glad to mod this to my liking but I'm still learning and can't seem to figure out why I can't recompile :/

Can I ask how you got floating messages to work? I've been trying to a while now. I found the correct updated airmessage and proxy apk's from s6 stuff and I know the csc entries but haven't found the correct secmms apk that won't crash. I'm downloading your rom now and am going to tinker with it some but wanted to see if you knew what needed to be edited in the mms apk after decompile or if not at all. Just trying to learn some more myself and thanks for putting this together I always need a solid base to fall back on.

What are you using to decompile/recompile? I use BDFreak's_2.0.2 APK Tool. He's got all the stuff you need inside and its a gui instead of the ol command line int. I did a lot of cool stuff on my note 3 with systemUI animations but haven't done anything yet on 5.1.1. Gonna try some stuff this weekend though.

I used tickle my android had a nice gui and everything else as well problem is in most steps I've ready I'm not sure if I need to install res-framework or the systemUI to my computer so I could actually recompile at the end! I Even tested recompiling something I had not edited period just decompiled so I could recompile and still no go maybe if I try that tool it may work? Not sure I'll give it a go in a few though and see what happens! If that fails then I guess it's time to make a thread and ask the pros ? since my Dumbass can't seem to get it lol

Yea man, the tool I use goes install frameworks, res and TouchWiz, then install systemui, then decompile, edit, them recompile. Also remember to move the original meta inf and android manifest to the new one before recompile.
I'll try some settings and system ui tweaks for this rom this weekend and share anything worth sharing.
