[APP][MOD] Black One-Handed mode background - Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps

[Disclaimer: this is my first use of APKTOOL. So, this may be a bit buggy, and I'll state that up front. No bugs so far, but feedback is appreciated and will be used to tweak/fix it up.]
I noticed some other ROM had done this, but I couldn't find it. So I modified the EasyOneHand.apk to attempt to make it have a black background, to save power and save your eyes in a dark room. After all, black pixels use zero power on an OLED screen.
[As luck would have it, the chef of the X-NOTE rom responded and told me his ROM was the one that had it. Of course, I didn't see his response quickly enough and I had already gotten impatient and did it myself, so I thought I'd post it anyway. Credit to him for the inspiration for my learning...]
I have attached my mod as well as the original stock files (APK and ODEX) for replacement. I have added an Update.Zip for those who prefer to let the magic happen automatically. There is also a dark version - just be sure to rename it and overwrite the existing file to install it. The dark version intentionally has white edges so you can easily see where the screen border is.
Extract this to your /system/app folder, overwriting the existing one. Be sure to delete the corresponding ODEX file if it exists. Set the permissions to the same as the other files in the folder (chmod 644).
Let me know how it works for you!
Updates
======================================
* Added Update.zip
* Added dark version (2013-11-17)
Screenshots
Before/After show the look before and after my mod.
Settings01-03 show how to enable one-handed mode and the built-in tutorial for how to use it. See the FAQ post below for details.

FAQ
Frequently Access Questions
=========================
But it didn't work!!! Did you reboot? You've gotta reboot, if you copy the file manually. Also, if using Update.Zip, it's best to clear cache/dalvik-cache.
Can I reuse or repackage this? Sure! Just give credit and send a link back to this thread.
How do I enable One Handed Mode? Look at the settings screenshots for details. You have to go to Settings -> Device -> One Handed Operation. Turn on "Use for All Screens." Then click the link at the bottom for the tutorial.
One handed mode is not working even after rebooting! Make sure you have all accesibility apps turned off.

Thank you Sir, its working great

There is a flashable update.zip there now, but I'll post a screenshot. Good point - some people are not familiar with the name "EasyOneHand.apk".

Hi there! I tried to install this mod unsuccessfully by replacing the file as instructed, then tried to replace with the original files and didn't work either. tried to flash and nothing. So right now I lost the one handed operation. I´m kind of noob so I think I´m probably doing something wrong, or perhaps is a different version depending on the phone, I have a N900W8. If anyone could help me would be very appreciated.
EDIT:::
I found the solution by desactivating "any dash" app from accesibility. I think it has something to do with this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2465085&highlight=one+hand+operation

Thanks Slappy! This works great! (although the update.zip failed to work via TWRP recovery. Have to manually replacing the apk)
Suggestions
1. Change the frame of the windows to deeper color as it's still white which wastes bit battery.
2. I don't know if this is feasible. Can the One Hand Mode stay after unlocking screen?
3. Can it also work for landscape mode?
Thanks again for your great great effort!

it seems like your apk is from a rom earlier than mj6 thats why it is not working with accessibility ON...so please please update it with a newer apk from mj6 or newer

I'm working on darkening it today. I have been working through quitting my job and finding another, so have been occupied as of late... I'm going to change it from #ffffff to #222222.
As to points 2 and 3, it is not something I have looked into, but I'll do some research. I believe that it is just the way it works (in other words, TouchWiz only calls the app when it is in portrait and it does not allow it to survive a lock/unlock.)

I have added a dark version, as per your request. I was actually thinking about this for some time myself. The X-Note ROM author made an all-black version, but I found it was hard to tell where the screen edges were, so I went with a dark gray and left the edges white so you can see them better.

Tap-to-Focus Camera [ICS]

Does anyone know of a way to install a version of the ICS camera into a rom which contains the tap-to-focus function? Hopefully there is a flashable zip that I haven't come across.
If its a matter of replacing files using Root Explorer, that's not a problem. However, if I have to use adb to do this, I would love instructions on how to do so.
Of course this will not be possible without the actual files/apk of the tap-to-focus feature.
Thanks in advance to anyone with answers.
Edit: Thanks to dr911 he was able to direct me in the right direction on how to enable this feature.

I don't know if all these files are really needed, but I took them from AOKP and dropped them into the system: system/app/Camera.apk, system/lib/libcamera_client.so, system/lib/libcameraservice.so, system/lib/hw/camera.herring.so. Someone posted it in a thread here on XDA, but I don't remember.

So now what , how and where the files are ???
It's like saying I know a good resturant , I forgot its name and I don't know where is it
The files are contained within the AOKP rom for the Nexus S 4G as posted. You just download the rom and extract the files. Once you've extracted them, just place them in the same folders within your current rom.

I see now .. my bad sorry
Can you please post a link for the ROM ? for some reason I was confused on the tons of ROM in the dev section ... And do these files work with stock odexed 4.0.4 ROM ? and does thip tap to focus work flowlessly ?
I'm using the stock rom from the update pushed through by Sprint which I of course rooted, and everything is working perfectly fine.
The download link is contained within the development section. Its titled [ROM][AOSP][INFO] Android Open Kang Project - Crespo4g Build 30 [4-7-12].
It is on the first page in the development section.

Are you also able to activate the power button as shutter? The combo TTF and PowerShutter was why I chose AOKP as source ROM.
I think, some things have to be done with hardware buttons, such as camera shutter and music track skipping.
And by the way, are you able to use the video effects? I don't know if it is related to these files or the ROM I use, but they don't work here! I don't need those, so I don't care!
The power button does not work as a way to take photos. But as of right now, I'm very pleased with how this has turned out. I'm running the closest thing to stock with the tap-to-focus feature along with the Face to Unlock security feature which I found as a flashable zip on Android Forums I believe.
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using Tapatalk
Did you activate that feature in camera settings? After that you have to restart the camera, else just your screen turns off.
EDIT1: So i just made a flashable zip from the files for anyone who isn't that familiar with Root Explorer or ADB. I hope it works, hadn't the time to test it, so better you make a backup before flashing (as always)
@The Batman: are you now able to use the power button as shutter?
EDIT2: New zip should also enable video effects on ICS ROMs that lack this function. Tested on I9023 with slimICS 3.3.
All credits to Team KANG and the people here on XDA, because I just took the files from AOKP that were mentioned in some posts here on XDA and put them into a flashable zip file (I also took the template for that from the forums, call me a pirate )
Yes, the power button now works. Users just have to make sure that they use the AOKP camera.apk and not the stock camera.Google.apk.

Sorry to say that, but do you even read the threads you reply to??? I've looked through your last posts and in two of them you recommend flashing CM9 V6 where no one asks for flashing a new rom. These threads are not even two pages long...
Here someone asked for a way to integrate TTF-cam into the stock ROM, in the other thread someone asked for a recovery and you also recommend to flash CM9!?

Does that mean both original ICS camera AND the TTF camera work toghther ? and I can choose which one to use ? i.e not lossing one ...
Yes. Or you can delete the camera.Google.apk and still have the camera from the AOKP rom which would then allow you to use the power button to snap pictures.

Depends on the ROM you are using and if that ROM contains the Google camera app or AOSP camera app.
But I think there is no advantage in having both side by side as the AOKP cam should have all features of the stock cam plus TTF and PS...
Has anyone tried this?

Do you have a custom recovery? If yes, place the file in the root of your SD-Card/USB-storage and flash it via recovery!
If you have a moment, I'll try the zip on my phone (forgot about it, sorry)!
EDIT: The zip flashed without errors in ClockWorkMod Recovery, so it should also work for others!

Well IMO , the last thing you wanna do is putting an extra function for the power button ... It is so weak and valunrable to break just doing it job opening the screen lock ..
Just my 2 cents , but the TTF is a good feature to have no doubt

But well "working" was overexagerated! quality Is horrible! i hope thats just because Its Not optimized for our camera yet.
well... the stiching process needs to improve!
And the normal pa​norama as well!
Yeah I've had issues like that with the stock panorama as well. Maybe adjust the speed and method of rotation having your body act as a tripod. Also try the gmscore. apk in the second post for viewing the photosphere, it will open it in a nice viewer.

Did you make any changes to your build.prop?
Downloaded the latest version. Everything is working flawlessly on CM10. No need to change my build.prop or anything.

okay, just flashed the v4 zip from the thread in first post!
panoram viewer works now. gotta test if it stiches better now ^^
well..... No!
still stiches horrible! a 5year old child could do better!
and for the normal Panorama... do NOT shake! you're supposed to keep the camera totally calm and stable. or else you can't take a useable panorama picture!
in that case it would be way more usefull to let the user shot themselve and not autoshot!
hmm, I'm not having many issues with the photosphere stitching, it seems to work pretty nice for me. Even at night at a concert I was able to make a nice picture of the area.
It is probably a sensor issue from like an accelerometer or something, not getting the right readings of angles and what not to match everything up right. I'm sure it won't be too long before it is set right for tablet use, the different size and shape would change the math a bit I'd imagine. Maybe we can get the version from the nexus 10 and see if that works better with the note 10.1

Got the photosphere working! It was just a simple fix in the build.prop changing the model from GT-N8013 to Galaxy Nexus
This got everything working right!
There is still one more thing needed to get the photosphere running right, gmscore.apk and that can be found at the source but takes some time so here is a link to it in my drop box, along with the zip with the carmera for the apk, move it to your system/app reboot into recovery to fix permissionss and then after you take a photosphere pic, hit the icon at the bottom to get to the viewer, it's pretty cool.

You don't need to worry about modding that anymore with the zip on the second post. But it is the file that holds the properties of your device, kind of like a config file or something of that nature. Others can go into more detail, or you can open yours up and look at what's inside.
It is in the /system folder
It worked well on my tab, and now i have 2 camera apps and two galleries (samsung stock and google)...i'm on 4.1.1 modded official rom by dr. Akrim.

Nice. I'd completed this mod myself when I got my s4 shortly after release, but never got around to testing it (did the same thing for my s2 back in the day). Got distracted trying to turn it into a vrtheme to make it compatible with 'all' version of camera (this way it replaces the resource files in apk and keeps that current version of camera installed). It's still just sitting in a couple of folders somewhere on my server....
(However, I think apk version means you should be able to push with adb without requiring root??)
I'm on a bell i9505 and it crashes on me after 3 seconds of use
Unfortunately I screwed up and my backup of my stock aPk was unsuccessful
Can someone please give me the stock aPk for the camera or tell me how I'd go about fixing my camera app

Couple of options...flash your rom again (extreme!) or just replace the modded apk with original apk. Some roms include updated camera software (not sure if there has been an update, but you never know) so best to get apk from the same rom version you are currently running
Also, need to make sure rom is deodexed (you could try deleting the associated odex file and see if crash stops)

(this works in my head...) You use a vrtheme (flashable zip) that replaces the ogg files (resources) in the apk with silent ogg files (vrtheme usually replaces the image resources so that you can change the look of apps such as what you see HERE)

Has anyone got this to work? Mine does nothing when I select it for current location. Weird.
Not sure either, I think it only animates when the weather is rain. Although there is a mod in the verizon dev forums that enables animation for all weather variants but I'm not sure if it works for ATT.

I saw someone who got lightening on theirs one day. I don't think it does anything for uninteresting weather

Since I live in Florida, there's a thunderstorm everyday. At first I thought the thunderstorm lightning lock screen was standard live wallpaper. At least I know it changes on our version. Just another reason to get this bootloader unlocked.
yea...mine works only when it rains. :good:
There are like ten of these threads in each variants forums. It's a known issue across all G3's and G2's running the G3 ports. Go to TMO Android Development. There is a fix that will work on all variants in the Zone Rom thread. Thank the developer if it works for you.

well despite the apparent dozens of threads I hadn't seen one, thanks for pointing me to this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54487822&postcount=207
I just installed this and works a peach, I now have a sunshine animation, yay.
for those who are going to be confused by this, it's a flashable zip, which since we don't have a proper recovery, doesn't do us much good (although the fake recovery should be able to flash this, I haven't tried it)
you can open the zip and remove the apk and odex files and manually install them, reboot, and you'll be greeted with a lock screen animation for your weather. Tested and working.
Note: if you lock the screen before rebooting, systemui will continually crash
Yea I forgot to mention that you need to delete the odex and replace the apk with that one from the OP in that thread. That's the way I did it even with us having the recovery. Glad you got it working.

It's actually called LGKeyguard (why that is, I couldn't tell you). That is the correct .apk and .odex file, I just tested it out and it does work. I just renamed the 2 in /priv-app with a .bak extension (LGKeyguard.apk.bak for example) and moved the 2 new ones from the zip file into the folder. Just make sure to set the permissions the same as the rest of the files in the folder. Once you get the files in there, reboot and you should see the new animations.
When I download it, it only has the apk in the zip, not the odex. Are you leaving the original odex intact?

No, the one I downloaded had both the apk and the odex file. Make sure you download it from the post that specifies it's for the stock/odex ROMs, and not the one from his OP.
Wait: here's the direct link to the one I downloaded: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23578570567720222 (from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54487822&postcount=207).

in theory it shouldn't matter, when you reboot if there's no odex it should make one, and if the odex is wrong in anyway it should remake it. so really as long as you get the apk in the right place with the right permissions and reboot all should be be fine ( the apk from the odex version, I think this might matter)
Worked great, thanks

You can download the one that doesn't have the odex and it will still work on stock. You just have to delete the odex file.

Thanks in advance
Need a new keyguard.apk for D-851 T-Mobile LG G3
Help i meed the original i look up a otherr thred and the files whete deleted now. The only way i csn use the phone is to do a factory reset
Mine shows rain and thunder/lightning. However, once I ditched the stock weather widget (without freezing it uninstalling it), for "weather timeline" I lost the animations. Looks like you have to use the native weather widget for animations to work.

[Boot/Shutdown Animation] + EXTRAS - Doctor Who with sound!

Doctor Who Boot/Shutdown animation for the LG G3 with sound!
WARNING
This is a disclaimer: While this has been tested I am not responsible for ANY damage done to your device. I take no responsibility for bootloops, soft bricks, hard bricks, living brick monsters, your phone proving an omnipotent being fallible(thus negating all existence), your great aunt smoking bath salts, flying monkeys, hot pockets, obamacare, dingleberries, carnivorous dingleberries or Sundays. Use at your own risk!!
Secondary disclaimer: If you have carnivorous dingleberries then you have bigger problems to worry about - but for any phone related questions feel free to message me on here either privately or in the thread.
This is my personal bootanimation for the Sprint LG G3 and I thought I would share it with any other Doctor Who fans out there. The original video is not my work, I simply did the leg work to turn it into a bootanimation. Doctor Who and the Tardis are registered trademarks of the BBC. If using the flashable zips, make sure you make a nandroid in TWRP before flashing these just in case. If you want to revert back to your original bootanimation you will have to restore your backup. I hope to make flashable stock zips eventually but until then, restoring your backup is your best option.
*NEW!* FLASHABLE ZIPS!!
Requires root access and TWRP recovery!
Google Drive
Download:LG G3 Bootanimation with sound!
Download:Sprint G3 Bootanimation with sound!
THESE FILES BELOW ARE NOT FLASHABLE ZIPS! Requires root access!! You have to manually put it into your system/media folder and change permissions(-rw-r--r-- aka 644). Also, you will want to delete your old boot animation(make a backup!). The G3 has two bootanimations on Sprint so if you have the same model I do you will want to replace both bootanimation.zip and bootanimation_sprint.zip(Just rename this file and have two copies in system/media). Then manually put Power_On.ogg(Sprint also has two copies of the boot sound so rename a copy of this to PowerOn_Sprint.ogg as well) into system/media/audio/ui for working sound! You ALSO need to either replace the files in carrier/cust/poweron or just delete that folder altogether(That's what I did).
For the shutdown animation it's the same. Replace shutdownanimation.zip(and shutdownanimation_sprint.zip if you are on sprint) and PowerOff.ogg(PowerOff_Sprint.ogg) to have a new shutdown animation with sound.
I believe At&t, Verizon and Tmobile would be easier but have no way of testing. If anyone wants to give detailed directions for the other carriers, it would be greatly appreciated.
Again, make sure you have backups of your original files saved to your computer. For me if something didnt work I would get a black screen but it would still boot. Other phones can soft brick but it looks like the G3 isn't one of em - still, better safe than sorry! I never ask for donations but if you like/use it, you could always hit that thank button!

EXTRAS
TARDIS LOCK/UNLOCK SOUNDS!
Below you will find two flashable zip files - one to change your lock sounds to the Tardis, another to change them back to stock. As always my disclaimer is in full effect - make a nandroid backup in TWRP just in case. Simply reboot into TWRP recovery, make a nandroid backup, then install your chosen flashable zip and reboot.

Thanks to @engine95 for the flashable zip template
everyone here at xda

Fantastic Work! Only issue is I can't get the sound to work. I know the sound files work on the phone cause I opened them in the media player. Suggestions?

You can search the root partition of your phone and see if those files are anywhere else, then replace them. I know they are in system/media/audio/ui and the carrier/cust/ folders.....I can't remember if they were in system media with the bootanimations as well......
As long as they are in the right places with the right permissions they should work.
Sorry btw, I just saw this.
EDIT: Just realized this was the one I posted in the general forum. I'm on Sprint so I'm not sure where the other carrier's boot sounds are. If you find out which ones they are and what they are named exactly, let me know so I can update the OP.
You're a hero. I just got 2 people to drop their plans to get an Iphone 6 when they saw my phone turn on. Thanks a bunch!
