This works on stock TouchWiz Jelly Bean (tested on VRBMF1 official).
Credit goes to MAD Industries for helping me out in modding SystemUI on Jelly Bean
* Added wifi toggle
* Toggles and battery icon colored in ICS blue
* Removed brightness slider
* Removed e911 location icons
No need to flash anything, just simply drop SystemUI.apk into /system/app and set permissions to rw-r--r-- and reboot
For a fix to the 'Ongoing Wifi notification', be aware that this can not be corrected in SystemUI. Please see the xda thread posted here for a separate fix.

Awesome post! Thanks for the share.

Thanks. Seems to work well. How difficult is it for you to remove unwanted toggles and/or make the wifi/signal bars blue? And/or a return on selection, for the toggles? Perhaps only wifi, GPS, sound, screen rotation and flight mode. Black status bar??

Oo, I like the black status bar idea. I don't like the grey.

Im using this mod right now but ive made a few changes to it. Ill post it if anyone is interested. Black statusbar blue network and wifi icons. Ics blue background when you press on a notification.

this may be a dumb question, but how do I set the permissions for it? once I paste it in the app folder, will it ask?

brilliant... works in ES file explorer basically the same way, thanks for the tip :good:

so this worked great (thanks!) but something happened to my backup when i rebooted, so the original file now displays the battery (etc.) as blue instead of green, and everything else as the tweaked apk instead of the stock one... Any chance anyone has the stock apk that they can post? I love the wifi toggle and most of the tweaks in this apk, but I am very particular about how everything looks, so i would make a stock/custom hybrid for myself using the original and the one you created.
Anyone willing to post it for me? Thanks!

So basically you want a completely stock one with just the WiFi toggle added in. If so I can do that.

this one is actually growing on me more and more every time I look at it, but yes, I suppose I would like something very close to that. I know this isn't the right place to request anything like this, but since you asked, I may as well! :good: I don't want you to waste your time since I am probably the only person who wants something like this, so if it takes you more than like 5 minutes, don't worry about it, I appreciate the thought!
Definitely Wifi toggle (maybe instead of the screen rotation one?)
battery icon green/yellow/red instead of the blue/orange/red
the persistent wifi notification is in the build.prop, not the systemUI, right? I'm assuming that can't be changed by you?
I'm loving the blue color of the toggles by the way, excellent job on this once again!

No the WiFi notification is located in the framework and not the systemui.apk also what do you want replaced I'm a little confused. You put WiFi toggle yes and then you mentioned something about the screen rotation.

Yea, sorry for being a little vague there... I was asking if it was possible to replace the 'screen rotation' toggle with the wifi toggle, and completely do away with the rotation one. If not, no worries!

Yea that's easy. I'll work on it today for you.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that the battery icon has also gone from green to blue, which seems to make sense with the blue toggles imho. That is how the original mod was first created for stock TW ICS also. I hope anyone using the mod finds it useful/easy on the eyes. I tried to keep it as close to stock as possible while making simple color changes/removing annoyances.

That is a beautiful change to the system ui. If you'd be so willing as to post it, I'd love to use it. Simply perfection for my beans.

Whoops. Was talking about this modified mod.

Hey Spearoid, I pm'd shawn12350 asking for the ui. I believe an even further updated version is in the works on his end. It's exactly what I wanted for my phone.
I'm running a 'stock' leaked jb rom and im considering going to cleanrom. I already tried flashing two different cm10s using the latest CWM, but im running into error 7. I'm looking for that nice stock jellybean, but a potential for better battery and performance not to mention extra customization intrigues me. Not to deviate but if anyone has ran into error 7, any suggestions? Perhaps twrp might help.
Anyway, these ui tweaks are awesome, I've been running dunderball's initial posting of his SystemUI for a while now. I can't wait to get a hold of shane12350's ui. Thanks for all the work and tips everyone.

Jelly MIUI JLM First Edition

Sorry but due to issues between me and xda I will no longer have anything here on xda. I will be posting on other forums so come find me there. I refuse to be part of a forum who will not follow it's own rules and regulations.
Peace,
Love, and

So I have been using this ugly stock miui launcher for one reason. I heard from that the jelly bean miui really sucks some juice. These shots were after a 1 1/2 hours of almost constant use. As you can see in the pictures my signal sucks when I am inside, I am using wifi and this phone is active. At the rate I am going the battery will last about 8 hours for an 3500 mA extended battery. Now that might sound steep but under the same conditions other jb roms can be as little as 4 hours. Now for real world life I would say the average stock battery should run 8 or more hours with normal use and decent signal.
Now there are special feature in the MIUI that are not in the normal MIUI that you might want to know about. First off if you remember DND well that has changed to Firewall and for those new to this here is what it does.
You can setup multiple types of filters for calls and text
You have a white list, black list, plus anti-stranger mode (non address book block)
anti-private mode (privite numbers are filtered)
keyword spam filter. All these settings effect call, sms, and mms
Once the filters are set then you can setup a blocking schedule with a start and stop time or all day
You can also manually turn it off and on
There is built in screen capture by a toggle or keystroke combo
You can lock the screen buttons (home, menu, back, search)
There is a guard mode that requires a password to see gallery, sms, mms, call log and some other things
You also have built in 2way call recording with any kernel
You place the call click on the tools option on the dialer and you have multiple options on of which is record
It also comes with network assistant to monitor data usage
You can set a limit and then it will automatically block data usage when that limit is reached along with notifications when you are close to your limit
A built in backup program which saves all your apps/app data, settings, permissions, sms, mms, call logs the works
MIUI's superuser app call permissions managers it allows root access
but also monitors all the apps permissions such as sms, call, phone state, call monitoring, contacts, call logs, positioning (course and fine position), and phone id
You for each thing you can allow, ask, or deny access for each app
Then you have themes which unlike other roms you can mix and match parts such as
lockscreen, wallpapers, icons, status bar, boot animation, sms app, dialer, fonts
With sounds and wallpapers you can even use your own off the sd card or music player.
Oh yeah lets not forget since it is based off an miui.us build there is the miui.us toolbox
Status bar settings
center clock
hide am/pm
single bars (for non fans of having both 1x and 3x signal bars like in the old donut and cupcake days)
Custom carrier label
custom carrier logo (if you dont want a lable how about a picture)
change colors of
clock
carrier lable
signal bars
wifi icon
battery icon
or set all above to one color
also reset back to white
launcher settings (for stock launcher only)
hide status bar
hide icon text
resize widges (custom widget sizes)
There is a cpu tuner with typical features
abd over wifi
battery calibration tool
android id tool
invoke media scaner option
screen dpi
and this thing call fan-nav that i have not figured out yet
oh and this crazy desktop mode thing for the stock launcher you have to see the video of this it is weird
So talk about a feature packed rom. And if your not a fan of that ios style launcher you can just load on your favorite launcher and still get almost every feature of miui.
All this and more can now be found on a server near you!!
Peace,
Love, and
Happiness

Woot Woot!!This ones mine,nice work Jlmancuso.

Mine... and here's proof on a factory battery life.. BTW this miui ROCKS....

+ Initial release!

Will give it a try.
Edit: Boots fine. No obvious issues right off the bat.
This Rom (so far) is really good. I haven't had time to delve into it too much due to the fact that I can't take the time to customize it yet. Good work guys. Looking forward to configuring it to suit my needs and testing it. I have it backed up in TWRP, so I can bounce back and forth.
Looking forward to the future of this Rom.
Edit 2: oh my! I may have fallen in love. The ability to customize, tweak and theme this Rom, combined with the stability (so far), puts it @ the top of its class. The only bug I've found is a f/c when trying to voice search with the Google widget. I haven't even hardly touched most apps using this Rom, so I'm not ruling out more bugs.
Edit 3: voice search works now after I updated Google search. Still having issues with playing multiple sounds at once. (For example, playing music while typing with key tones on makes music sound stop. The song still plays, just no sound until reboot)
Still... awesome Rom!!!

I applaud.

EDIT: Works!
BUGS I've found:
Pie menu doesnt work.
Edit:
Never mind. Pie works when you enable Expanded desktop mode then enable pie menu.

Been playing around with this rom for an hour now and very impressed so far. Only one freeze but that was because of messing with Google voice search which I know is an issue with hashcodes rom. Will update on battery performance after a day or so. Thanks for porting.
Update:- I keep losing sound. Did a dirty flash and the sound came on for a couple of minutes and then disappeared again. Don't know if anyone else is having this issue. Thanks.

Just found out that PIE will work if you enable pie then expanded desktop and continue to work after you disable expanded desktop. It just won't work until expanded desktop has been/is enabled while pie is. Very strange. I can have my normal UI with PIE on the side.
Sent from my Amazon Kindle Fire HD using xda app-developers app

Im losing sound just by adjusting the volume with the buttons so don't think this is just being caused by the notifications. Might flash hashcodes rom just to make sure I haven't suddenly developed a hardware issue. Otherwise I'm a bit stumped!

Awidawad, you may want to try Maromi's 1.4 ghz. kernel. It allows for o/c (1400) and there's no issues with sound. ... At least on my kfhd7. I love this Rom so I want it to work perfectly... which it is close.

Just a little feedback. Been trying this Rom out for a bit today and must say it's seems pretty solid so far. Only about half way through options, must say the sheer number of options are awesome. One question and one comment: how do you get rid of the nav bar buttons without getting rid of the nav bar? I can get the notification portion to work ok, but quick settings I can't because nav buttons are in the way. For the comment: about the only downside I've noticed so far is that it seems to run just slightly slower in scrolling and general navigation, etc than other CM roms. Overall though, this is a very solid alpha build. Thanks for the work, good Rom :thumbup:

You can trim the navbar buttons down to one button and then set it to where you can't even see it.

[APP] MW-PEN App Enabler - add more Pen Window Apps WITHOUT ROOT

Hi All NON-ROOTED Note 3 users:
If you are like me who's still hesitant to ROOT your phone for whatever reason, then this app will help to add more Pen Window apps without needing ROOT.
MW-PEN App Enabler is my attempt to automate the process of inserting the necessary meta-data to any apps' AndroidManifest.xml to be recognized as a pen/multi window app by Samsung's multiwindow framework right within your phone without needing a PC/laptop and having to learn to use apktool/apk manager/apk multi-tool, etc.
This app implements the manual tutorial I made a couple of months ago about how to enable apps for pen window without root. As most newbies are not quite comfortable using apktool to decompile/recompile apks, I made it a challenge to find a way to simplify the process right within the phone and this app is the result of lots of sleepless nights.
DOWNLOAD: See post attachments below...
The xda version below enables pen window apps (no limit) but the one on the Play Store enables both pen and multiwindow as well as multiple instances of the same app (dependent on whether app can support multiple instances).
HOW TO USE:
1. Pick apk file from sdcard (if you have a backup of the app) or pick from installed apps (system apps not possible).
2. Click Process... (the bigger the app, the longer it takes to process).
3. If target app is installed, the enabler app will prompt you to uninstall it first. (if you have important data, please make a backup first)
4. Finally, Install the processed app.
That's it. Easy peasy.
LIMITATIONS:
There is no way to enable system apps or apps that are already included in the rom like Youtube, Play Store, etc. Enabled apps can not be updated. To update, you need to uninstall the target app, install the updated version and then run it through the MW-Pen App Enabler app again. Not all apps are pen window or multiwindow friendly, so please don't enable every app you have. Some apps work, some don't.

Are paid apps system apps?
I bought this to make XDA Premium [HD] to work in multiwindow (since no support from developer, didn't even reply my email) but when I choose: Installed App --> XDA Premium [HD] --> error that MW-PEN App Enabled has stopped (Or how ever it's told in english)
Haven't go time to test for other apps.
Offtopic?
You have done good apps for penwindow / multiwindow and even air command.
Is it possible to make PEN Window Launcher like app for multiwindow bar. I really like penwindow launcher and would love if same way from shortcut at homescreen could enable multiwindow bar. I don't like to keep that ugly arrow thing on my screen so every time I in purpose want two apps to one screen, I have to keep back button held and it's just not good
I hope you got what I tried to tell you

awesome job...works like a charm!

Very good thx, when multi Windows option will be available?

I tried enabling XDA Premium HD app through the enabler app and it is working great so far. As the XDA Premium HD is several MBs it would take longer to process.
As regards to your question about the multiwindow bar, do you mean a shortcut to open and close the multiwindow bar without having to long press the back key? If that is what you mean then I will try to explore if it is possible. I did not think that someone would be interested in such functionality but I'll see what I can do.

Just bought the app, now multi Windows work, I still can update the modified apps on play store normally?

Read OP, you'll figure it out.
To OP: yes you got me right, I use Nova launcher and on my "apps" icon I got swipe function to open penwindow. I'd like to enable same way mw bar, swiping an icon (or straight icon push) to open multiwindow instead of holding down back button
Edit: Oh my god, I pay spotify 9.99€ a month and they'll not able to give me penwindow and multiwindow support. APK-Multi-Tool couldn't compile spotify apk so no use of it and you give me simply method to make it happen just for ~1.5€ on the fly straight from phone.
Thank you,! This is one of those "must have" apps, couldn't live without it anymore (as long as my phone is non-rooted, lol)

Welcome back my friend. Great tool, it's almost a pity that I have root

I tried it, next, the browser works, but viber goes fc,i have a stock rom mj7 version.

Issue with apps
Hi,
I purchased this app on the play store and it works fine. Thank you for your work.
I was thinking about rooting my phone just to be able to have this work!
It mainly works on the apps I needed but I have one that crash following the uninstall/install. The app that crashes is 6play (French catch up TV).
Do you have any solution?
Thanks

As I said in the app description, not all apps are multiwindow/penwindow friendly. It is due to how the app has been designed to work and there is nothing I can do to make all apps work unless the app developer himself will add the functionality to his app.

As you requested, below is the App to open/close the MultiWindow Tray without having to long-press the back button. Should also work on other samsung devices with multiwindow feature like Note N7000, etc. It is best used with some gesture apps. I am not sure if many will be interested in using it but feel free to open a thread for it or share it. I also included a Recent apps shortcut for those who may find it useful.

[APP][TUT] Google Dialer in Moto X

GOOGLE DIALER
Google's Dialer With Built-in Search Is Exclusive To Nexus And GPE Devices, But You Can Install It Manually On Other KitKat ROMs
DO AT YOUR OWN RISK! THE XDA-DEVELOPERS FORUM AND I WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR POSSIBLE DAMAGE TO YOUR PHONE!
Of all the announced*new features of the Nexus 5 and Android 4.4/KiKat, one of the cooler ones was a new dialer colloquially known as the "KitKat dialer." It features a revamped UI and includes the ability to search for businesses, contacts, etc. right from inside the dialer. It also features*internet-based caller ID. The name "KitKat dialer," however, is not entirely accurate.
Background:
Google Dialer (its official name) is not technically part of KitKat because it is not included in AOSP. It is a closed-source alternative to the regular AOSP dialer, much in the way that Google Play Music replaces the AOSP music app and Chrome replaces the AOSP browser. The name "KitKat dialer" refers to the fact that Google launched it on the Nexus 5, which was KitKat's launch device.

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Unlike one of the other new apps introduced alongside KitKat, the Google Experience Launcher -*which is a Nexus 5 exclusive*- Google actually saw fit to release its revamped dialer application to other Nexus and Google Play Edition phones. Unfortunately, outside of that universe the dialer is unavailable, at least officially. At some time down the road, Google could easily decide to offer it through the Play Store but there's no indication of that happening in the foreseeable future. Until that day arrives, you can install it manually.
Installation Procedure:
Before beginning, you must be rooted and running either an official or custom KitKat ROM on your phone. Google Dialer will not install on any version of Android prior to 4.4.
Download either the APK file or the flashable ZIP file using the links at the bottom of this post. The APK was pulled directly from a Nexus 5 running Android 4.4.2.Flash the ZIP file in a custom recovery, or copy the APK file directly into /system/priv-app.If you opted to move the APK file manually, you'll need to set the permissions on the APK to 644 after moving it into its proper folder. Do this either through your file manager app or via a shell.Reboot your phone.
Possible Problems And Questions:
During tests on various phones and settings, found some issues that are worth mentioning, and some questions that some of you will probably have.
Can this be installed without root?
This question can only be answered with another question. Do you want to be able to make calls? While yes, the app can be installed without root, it requires permissions that are only available to apps that are signed with a platform key or installed in /system/priv-app. What that means in practical terms is that if you install the app without root, the actual searching function will work, but you will not be able to make calls.
I installed the app but the icon doesn't show up in my app. What can I do?
If this happens on your phone, the only solution we found was to use Nova Launcher because it has a feature that allows you to run a specific activity within an app. To set this up:
01-Within Nova Launcher, long-press on the home screen.
02-Choose "Shortcuts"
03-Select "Activities"
04-Find "Google Dialer" in the list, then tap to open it up, and select "Phone" (use the first one in the list)
This will put a shortcut to the dialer on your home screen. At this stage, you can use this to access Google Dialer. It's not the cleanest solution, but it does work.
Can I disable my default dialer?
The short answer is no. As a general rule, you will need to keep your present dialer enabled in order to receive calls. The long answer is that on some phones you might be able to disable your stock dialer, but on others you definitely cannot. Feel free to try it on your own device and let us know what your results are.
Download:
Here are both a flashable ZIP file as well as the lone APK file. If you want to flash in recovery, use the ZIP file. If old-school is more your thing, download the APK and put it in /system/priv-app manually.

Xposed / Gravity Box (KK) is able to do that.
I have my status bar in a nice green-themed color, and I just LOVE having network upload/download speeds in the status bar itself....
Good Luck

So if your leaving the original dialer in place this means incoming calls will not get the benefit of the google dialer caller id... correct?

I'm still testing it, but I believe with a automator function as Tasker can solve this. Create a specific profile and choose which app should run for receiving calls. Come on trying!

NO NO didnt mean to sound like I was complaining was simply trying to outline what it could and could not do in this configuration. The search feature that lets you find local places in the dialer works great and getting rid of that ugly themed 443 dialer are huge plusses all by themselves

Got it bro. Relax! No problem! Actually installed it last night and to tell the truth and hardly mechi. I know it works! If he does not receive the call because the existence of the default dialer, just automate it into action when the phone rings and disable the standard for receipt of calls.

At least in my Moto X update was not not. Already running 4.4.3 and has no options Google Dialer. From what I researched this dialer is unique to Nexus. But it is working on my device now.

Agreed the 443 dialer is the same dialer as 442 just themed differently with white and bright blue, no addition google features.

If you miss a call and then choose the google dialer history, does the history button in the google dialer start working?
