I have Just Updated Post 1. Added a guide for users with TouchWiz Roms. :laugh::laugh::laugh:
I just placed the .zip file provided in the op and it worked flawlessly
The only inconvenient is the fact that the animation is narrower(resolution is smaller) than the screen,and the colored circles start appearing not from the bezel of the phone but from 1 cm in.
would they make 4.3 for our note !! official 4.3 !

FYI, Ezaechiel TW ROM has the bootanimation.zip in /data/local, replacing it with the 4.3 animation works fine, except for the sound which still uses the old one from the ROM

Im sorry i couldn't find any sounds for the 4.3 boot animation, Sorry. So your are stuck with the stock boot animation sound.
Protip: Change the res to 800x1280 in the desc
Just saw the contents of the parts...^ will mess things up
The logo is from the nexus and will look small on the gigantic Note screen. So.....
I modified and updated the desc.txt to a much better resolution of 800*170 whilst maintaining the aspect ratio
Modified zip is attached with this reply.
OP please have a look at this.

I am putting this together for anyone interested in having your clock centered and if you are so inclined a bit of advice on how to change out some statusbar icons I will not be providing the actual icons but will explain how to do so if you are interested.
This should work on any one xl using stock deodexed sense but has only been tested on the att version.
First off you must be rooted and have a deodexed rom installed.
You will need some type of file explorer I use root explorer
You will need this app Zip Themer installed on your phone LINK
Once you have Zip Themer installed grab the attached file and place it in the folder on your sd card named zip themer.
Whats inside the zip? It is a compiled status_bar.xml with the center clock mod applied.
Now run zip themer select +theme and then select the zip you just placed in the folder then select build it when complete you will find two zip files on the root of your sd one called update and one called undo take the the one name update and unzip it inside you will find a systemui.apk.
Take the apk and navigate to system app folder and create a folder name temp.
Place the apk inside now fix the permissions to match the existing systemui.apk
Once you have done that move it to the system app folder it will ask you if you wish to overwrite the current apk say yes and reboot phone and you will have your clock centered.
If something goes wrong the undo folder contains a original copy of your systemui.apk so can replace it.
Now if your feeling more adventurous and wish to change out some icons as well you will need a copy of your systemui on your pc unzip it inside navigate to
res drawable-xhdpi folder you will need this as reference to name your new icons. Unzip the file attached to this post on your pc as well.
Find the icons you wish to use and place them in the systemui res drawable-xhdpi folder that is in the zip I provided make sure to name them exactly as they are named in the origional systemui folder when you have all your icons zip the xml file and the folder and follow the instructions above.
Please do this at your own risk I am not responsible if you brick your phone or anything else.
Updated
Statusbar icons that were used in my set up are now attached
For data signal only 4g is themed because that is all I needed I don't get lte and very seldom drop of 4g well actually I have never dropped off 4g since I had the phone. The saturn icons were made by me the other icons were from various sources so credt to those who made them.
Here's a screen shot of mine to show what can be done.
Using nova launcher and stock deodexed sense
what rom are you running?
Any chance you could upload the Icons you're using there?

I never tried it on a odexed file but I read through the entire manual for zip themes and no where did it say deodexed just root required. Let me look into some more when I get home.

[MOD] Ported "Note 2 Camera" 22.10. 30Mbit/192kbit/Hardkey-Vol.UP/SLOW/FAST MOTION
Hi Guys I have decided to port this mod from a great dev in the I9300 forum called HyperX (Thank you)
This is VERSION 1.52 for DEODEXED ROMS
Extra options compared to the stock Sg3 Cam
also
Dont worry if you dont see the pause button when recording, I was told note 2 took out the soft button, So to pause Press Vol down, Resume Vol UP.
Good thing about this is it uses hard keys for different things Eg; the volume up key also acts like the optional camera clicker. Like a real camera There are more visit the original thread for more details
Here is the details in the original thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1691145
Again thanks HyperX
Instructions very simple:
Simply copy the zip to your phone
Reboot into recovery
choose the zip file & flash
Reboot & DONE
whats the difference from his to yours? does HyperX version does not work on I9305 and yours does?
Its not mine its his i just made it flashable simply changing partition location

No imeant to download it so you can extract the camera apk from it and use it. Its also good to have that bckup incase you have another problem like this, all the stock apks are in that

gotcha..cheers :good:
If you are on a stock odexed rom then you will need to delete the .odex file for what is being replaced in both system/app and framework.
So looking in the zip you will need to delete samsungcamera.odex from system/app and seccamera.odex from system/framework.
If you don't want to remove those two files then you will need the samsungcamera.apk and seccamera.jar from a stock odexed rom not a deodexed rom because that is not going to make any difference because when the rom is deodexed it combines the .apk or .jar together with the .odex where as an odexed system has the .odex and .apk or .jar seperate.

Yeap. Doesn't work on 4.3. Phone doesn't boot..
Worked on i9305 4.4.4 odexed rom
These little mods are for the latest (at time of writing) stock firmwares: N7100XXDLL4 / DLL5/ DLL7 and N7100UBDLL3
Whenever I flash a new ROM, the first thing I do is re-do these little mods (unless the ROM already includes them) and flash them, so I thought I would share as some of you may find them useful.
They are all in a Clockworkmod flashable zip.
*And now with CWM flashable Aroma installer with my stock launcher and PopupBrowser mods added to it, so now you can install the ones you want and leave the ones you do not want.*
Thanks to commandersafi for his tool.
Included are the folllowing:
SecMms.apk - No sms to mms convert, number of contacts limit removed, better smilies (see pic) and the option to keep the screen off when a new mrssage arrives (CWM_SecMms.apk_ScreenOff.zip only. Thanks to sling for the screen off/on mod))
SystemUI.apk - Black status bar instead of grey.
framework-res.apk - Stock Browser useragent set to desktop as default, better smilies for third party messaging clients (same as the ones in SecMms.apk), screen will now not come on when unplugging from charger/usb (I found this really annoying!), the menu bar (if you enable it) has been reduced in size (see pic to see the size it looks) and the lockscreen rotation has been enabled (only in CWM_AROMA_Stock_UBDLL3_Mods.zip).
SecLauncher2.apk - Stock launcher mod: 6 x 7 icons instead of the stock 4 x 4 and also has up to 7 icons in the dock instead of the stock 5, plus with 6 x 7 icons in the app drawer instead of the stock 5 x 5. (Only in the Aroma installer version)
PopupBrowser.apk - It is now larger (see pic to see the size it looks). I did not see the point in having the PopupBrowser so small as I was always 'maximising' it. Now, with this mod, there is no need to. (Only in the Aroma
installer version)
SamsungWidget_WeatherClock.apk - This is the default weather widget from the Note 1 (N7000) which has the 5 day forcast on the widget, it has been modded to fit the Note 2 (N7100) screen size (see pics). Even the app the widget opens up into has been modded as they both bled off the screen due to the Note 1's screen resolution, This widget is an addition to the already installed Accuweather widget and nothing gets removed or overwritten. And I will add that they took me hours to sort out! (It is in its own CWM flashable zip)
You should be able to use these mods for odexed as well as deodexed roms, as the odex files for SecMms.apk, SystemUI.apk, PopupBrowser.apk and SecLauncher2.apk, if you have them, will be deleted when the apps are flashed, I have not tested them on a stock odexed rom but there should be no problems.
Both flashable zips will work on stock (and maybe custom) XXDLL4/5/7 and N7100UBDLL3.
How to:
1. Download the CWM flashable zip
2. BACKUP YOUR ROM! Just in case.
3. Reboot into recovery and flash zip.
4. Reboot.
5. Click 'THANKS'
.
*If you use your Note 2 to download the file, please use a browser other than the stock one, otherwise it may just download a large .php file.*
.
CWM_N7100UBDLL3_framework_Mod.zip (Same as above but with the lockscreen rotation disabled.)
.
Stock_DLL4_Mods.zip
.
CWM_AROMA_Stock_DLL7_Mods.zip
.
CWM_AROMA_Stock_UBDLL3_Mods.zip
.
.
SecLauncher2.apk (Stock launcher) mods (see attachments).
How to:
1. Download the attached modded SecLauncher2.apk
1. Go to /system/app and rename SecLauncher2.apk to SecLauncher2.apk.bak (in case you want to revert back)
2. Copy over the modded SecLauncher2.apk to /system/app, rename to SecLauncher2.apk , set permissions, reboot, done.
Please note SecLauncher2_10x6x8_NoScroll.apk will have no app labels on the home screen pages due to the cells being so small.
.
.
Please note CWM_SecMms.apk_ScreenOff.zip is the same as the mod above but with the added option in the app settings of having the screen come on/stay off when a new message arrives, if you have an odexed rom, make sure you delete the SecMms.odex file before flashing. (Thanks to sling for the screen off/on mod)

Hello padlad,
Thank you for the mods.
I have one important find that you should know. IT DOES NOT WORK CORRECTLY, specifically the framework-res mod, WHEN Simplistic Framework is installed. I'm pretty sure I installed everything correctly. So there must be a conflict somewhere.
What happens - the home screen shrinks to about 1/2 the size, on all pages.
I'm reverting back from a backup and will install only the SecMms mod in Aroma. I'll let you know what happens.
Update - All is good with just the SecMms mod.
Thanks!
I'm running my launcher @ 270dpi and with your launcher mod looks really great but when I open a folder the size is really small.
Anyway to increase the folder size to the same as original and remove page dots?
Many Thanks
Edit: nevermind I modded my original omega 10 launcher with default folder settings and 6x7 app draw and at 270dpi it looks awesome.

New updateVanilla rootbox zip Available Now
Hi Guyz..
Today when i woke up and read my msgs those green similes were quite annoying me ..... so i decided to change them and i did change them..
For those people who dose not like android similes can do this..
Its quite easy and noob friendly... so here we go
1 MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP... GO TO RECOVERY FOR THIS
2 EXTRACT THESE 2 APK FROM THE ROM ZIP
For CyanogenMod users
system\app\mms.apk
system\framework\framework_res.apk
For Sense users
copy only
system\framework\framework_res.apk
These apks can also be get using any root explorer if you dont have ROM zip.
same destinations.. For example using Es File Explorer or Solid Explorer
3.After that extract the sense5.rar file that i have given to u.somewhere safe wher you can find that
4.Open your Rom files one by one lets start with Framework_res using winrar on pc
Now where to go?
res\drawable-mdpi\
Drag all the emotions from the folder that you have extracted from sense 5.rar these are all emotions you could see it and drop it in apk file that you have open at one side like shown in image one
5. Thats it now close the apk file
6 same with the mms apk
7 Now how to push it if you dont know how to use ADB
8 Download the zip named as flash
9 Open it using winrar
10 If uou want to flash mms then put it in sytem\app
And if you want to flash framework put it in system\framework and close the zip
Do not extract the zip
And compression level is normal dont change the settings just press on ok
11 Cyanogen user should Flash both files after editing and Sense users can flash framework only cuz mms.apk dosenot exist
12 For CM9 and cm 10.1 i have made a flashable zip just flash it and you are done NAMED as cm9 emo.zip for cm9 and cm10.1 for cm10.1 and cm10 for cm10 and xenon for xenon and rootbox for Vanilla Rootbox
AT THE END I DIDNT TEST IT ON SENSE BUT IT SHOULD WORK
And please be easy on me cuz this is my first tutorial
see guyz in this way you can also theme your rom like systemui.apk for statusbar

The OP has not yet given us a flashable zip or files for cm10 .I think you misread the guide.the one that you've done is specific for phones running on the sense rom.. not cm10 .
As far as fixing the bootloop i think you should restore any previous nandroid backups through recovery or reflash the rom..

Now Lets Start the Real Work
Extract the following Things From the other Rom

System/framework/framework-res.apk
System/app/Priv/SystemUI.apk
System/app/Settings.apk
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
FOR USERS EDITING IN MOBILE (Root Explorer)..........PC users go down
Now rename the follwing files (Both from your device and the other rom) [dont mix them up. place them in different folder] as
Code:
framework-res.apk
as
Code:
framework-res.zip
Code:
Settings.apk
as
Code:
Settings.zip
Code:
SystemUI.apk
as
Code:
SystemUI.zip
FOR PC USERS
JUST Select the apk and right click and select winzip or any other tool and press extract
From now on use have to use your brain, gut feel, your choices and stuff.
SO Extract the zips
Got to Res folders of each apk
For Example if you are working on Settings go to
Res folder in both your rom and the cm11
in your rom go to the the file which is related to your screen resolution
Eg.
For HDPI -(drawable-hdpi)
and same with cm11 and then start comparing the pictures the both folders and there might be nice pics in (drawble-XXHDPI) folder and that doesnt mean you can take all the pics from drawable-XXHDPI after choosing your stuff replace your images and rename if necessary ( if the images look exactly the same and with different name and rename to the name of picture in your name and replace the pic ) just go into the main folder of the file of your app which you extracted and zip of your rom
For Eg. Its Setting app
after you have edited the pics
Some Other Tips
There are few pictures in blue try to edit theme with gimp or Image Editor By Byte Experts
For chaning Default Wallpaper
Go to framework-res.apk
in that go to res
then drawable
and choose the Image you want and replace the image with same name
9 pngs can be replaced in the same way, but if you want to edit them follow this video- How to easily edit .9.png files
go back to res and then back again you will find all the folders like
assets
META-INF
res
resources.arsc
AndroidManifiest.xml
Select all the files present and zip them then Rename the zip again to " Setting.apk "
now you need to push the file back to your device
Just follow this Thread - How Install a App as System APP
For Setting and SystemUI and for framework

Great guide. Just one point/tip if I may, I see it a lot that People suggest to rename an apk to zip, well in order to open a zip you obviously need to have a program capable of doing so, so just set apks to open with your preferred zip program which will cut out the unnecessary step of having to rename each apk you want to mod.

Hey have a look at my first post and for clock you can modify jbclock+ to make it look like kk and best launcher according to me is holo kk launcher and if your running ICS+ there are many apps that looks exactly like kk launcher which version of android are you running on?? And I really think if you change many of the images in the talks it will drastically change things please have patience to read the first post
And yeah it looks like I din't work too much for this thread

@kaushikb.1996, I saw your thread of Micromax A87, in that you've themed the dialer too, right? If I attach my Phone.apk and Contacts.apk? Can you do it for me? As far I've read the OP, there's nothing bout' that. Maybe you can help?
Thank You.

No I actually din't theme it, I used exdailer and dark theme its a light and good looking too
Great thread. Helped me a lot since I'm working on a Android L themed ROM for the galaxy express using Pacrom as base. I've managed to get the settings.apk theme changed like the header and color and stuff. Trying to change the icon colors in settings and theme the dialer and framework res. Whenever I theme the dialer and framework res it the dialer doesn't show up after replacing via system/priv-app permissions -rw-r-r-. And the framework res cause a boot loop. All I did was change some pngs and .9 images and edited the XML's dimensions and styles XML to match up then made any necessary changes to the drawables due to kitkats new theming process. Shoot me a PM thanks In advance.

Well it lots like you have normally edited .9.pngs like any other picture so there is a force close as framework runs throughout the system there is probably a boot loop for now take the apks from youe rom and flash them from recovery and after that while editing .9.pngs you first decompile the apk
Then select the picture leaving that black dots and the border and save and recompile.
I have attached the video in first post
