[Apps]SlimKat 4.4.4 MMS, Dialer, SystemUI, Contacts, and LatinIME iOS 7 Like[Apps] - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

Here we go, this is my first thread so take it easy on me...LoL
What we have here is modified MMS, Dialer, SystemUI, Contacts, and LatinIME apk's from @NoSpamDan 's Slim-skyrocket-4.4.4.build.5.95-UNOFFICIAL-20140621-1555 build to resemble the iOS 7 for the Samsung Galaxy SII SGH-I727 Skyrocket. I will do my best to keep up with the newest builds, may be kind of hard since he builds them so fast LoL...:good: If you decide to flash this build use these Slim Gapps and if you want to use the iOS 7 font then flash this HelveticaNeueLTCom.zip after flashing the ROM and Gapps. Then reboot and set up your Skyrocket the way you like it, apps and what not. Once you get all set up, then you download the modified apk's below and save them to a location in your phone where you can easily find and access them as you will need to get to them soon enough. I also suggest you backup your ROM and copy your MMS, Dialer, SystemUI, Contacts, and LatinIME apk's to a folder on your SD Card and rename them MMS.bak and so on. Now that you've downloaded the modified apk's and backed up your SlimKat 4.4.4 ROM and "stock" apk's, open up your favorite file explorer, I use Root Browser myself, but you can use ES File Explorer or any file explorer of your choice, go to the folder you saved the modified apk's in and copy the first one of your choice, (MMS, Dialer, Contacts, and SystemUI apk's are located in/system/priv-app and LatinIME.apk is located in /system/app) copy it, then go to the location mentioned above for the respected app, once there I delete the apk in the respected folder, paste the modified one in place and CHANGE PERMISSIONS TO 777!!! Now just reboot your skyrocket and the modded iOS 7 png's should take effect after reboot. Now just repeat everything until you have all five of the modified apk's in their respected folders and you should be good to go. :highfive:
I will go back through and check to make sure I haven't missed anything, after hours of staring at white icons on white background, it gets hard on the eyes...
Modified APK's Located in /system/priv-app:
Contacts.apk
Dialer.apk
MMS.apk
SystemUI
Modified APK Located in system/app
LatinIME.apk
If you want the signal icons to the left and the iOS 7 Battery icon you need to have the Xposed Installer by @rovo89 and @Tungstwenty and the older version of iOS 7 X Module by @ibocharov installed as well, which I suggest doing to get the full feel of the iOS 7.

[ROM PART][DEV] Extended Power Menu

This is designed to be for ROM devs, not for regular users. if you don't understand how to use these, don't use them! and always have a backup handy.

I have added Extended Power Menu in, but the way that it works requires a modification of some system files that only make sense to add into new roms.
android.policy.jar and framework.jar can just be placed in /system/framework/ and they should work just fine.
The part that needs to be edited is your framework-res.apk. I have attached a modified framework-res.apk that works, which is a modified version of Ayo's themed gingerclone framework. it's easiest for those who are just starting to build a rom to just theme from this framework instead of modifying it.
For those who want this and are already on a rom and don't want to change, you can push the 3 files to /system/framework/ and reboot, and it should work just fine, however it will have the gingerclone icons/theme.
For those who want to edit their own framework-res.apk so they don't have to retheme it (not recommended), follow the instructions here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=811532
it's probably easier to pull the changed images from your framework and push them into this framework, rather than trying to add the changes into your framework.
Credit to untermensch for the guide I followed, and credit to dr. honk, as I used his bionix frost theme as a model for the changes.
it will take a bit to boot after you push the files, as it has to rebuild the dalvik cache, so just wait for it, and adb logcat to see if it has problems.

[APP][THEME][WIDGET] Transparent Google Search

Once, again, I am on a transparent widget kick. Here is the google search bar widget in a transparent theme.
Changelog: I have also themed a Black Google Search Widget with the browser symbol from Gingerbread. Download and pic below.
This is a system app, so you'll have to be rooted and have access to the system/app drawer via a file manager of your choice. I recommend removing the existing Google Search widget off your homescreen if you have one before replacing the .apk. I also recommend copying the stock, existing GoogleSearchBar.apk from your system/app drawer and keeping it on your sdcard in case something goes wrong, or you want the stock search bar back. After replacing the existing .apk with the themed one reboot your device and re-check your widget list.
as always, since this requires modifying your system/app drawer, I take no responsibility for you gorking your phone. If you don't know what your doing, take some time to ask, or read.
I also take no credit for the development of this .apk. All Credit goes to Google Development.

Sorry i dun think ur update.zip for transparent google search widget is working, i flashed using cwm, my original one is still there.
According to ClockworkmodRecovery, it won't accept the zip because it used a deprecated udate script. Simply installing the apk doesn't seem to work either.
has anyone been able to successfully install these? awesome widgets but the .apk file will not install and trying to install the zip via CWM tells me its not compatible with cwm 3.0.
easily got it to install. Reboot after uninstalling original and install just as any other apk via root explorer, however it was not transparent. Original white
Thanks, works perfectly. Simply backup stock google search apk (if you'd like) and remove it, unzip and place the apk you wish to install on usb storage, install and add widget to your home screen. At least that's what I did and have had no issues with it...
it didn't turn it black or transparent still the same stock white
Doesn't work for me either, just says "Application Not Installed."
you take requests? I am looking for one that I saw the widget was solid black with google and the microphone in ics blue ???

*****How to Enable Overscrolling Glow on HTC Sense ICS Roms****

Guys, ALL Ice Cream Sandwich and Gingerbread Sense Rom has their Over scrolling Gloww effect disabled by HTC, by making them transparent
I am gonna show you how to enable them again on your Sensation Custom Roms
IMPORTANT **You need all these thing before starting which u should have some of them already
1. Your Custom Rom file that you are using and make a copy of it so u can have the original one for backup
2. Recovery 4EXT and ClockwormMOd (both are good)
3. These two images ---

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
4. 7Zip application (dont use WinRAR)
5. A FULL NANDROID Backup of ur current phone So let's begin
IMPORTANT !!
If you guys lost the overscrolling effect after installing any battery % mods, try to copy the edited images in the battery mod zip (in the same directory path as shown above) and re flash the "Battery% Mod" REFER TO STEP 3**
This should really work
Let's begin
1. Open the two images in any image editor app preferably Photoshop
2. Then change their color, in Photoshop, Add a layer, Hue and Saturation (or sumthin like that) and select the colorize box on the right hand side, then mess around with their colours do this for both and save them on ur desktop
3. Right click your Custom Rom Zip File OR Your battery % MOd zip file (If u have any battery mods), select 7Zip, open archive, and navigate to system, framework, framework-res.apk, res and finally drawable-hdpi
4. Drag both images that have been edited in the drawable-hdpi area that is opened, click ok when asked are you sure you wanna copy this?
5. Then **IMPORTANT** close the zip file, AND when youre asked "Do you want to update it in the archive?" Select OK.
6. After ur zip file has been updated, you can flash the edited rom OR battery percentage mod zip again
( You have to reinstall other addons if you have lost them)
AND YOU ARE GOOD TO GO Now try over scrolling and see if its there PLease tell me if u guys successfully did it
If you guys lost the overscrolling effect after installing any battery % mods, try to copy the edited images in the battery mod zip (in the same directory path as shown above) and re flash the "Battery% Mod"
tell me what you guys think
GUys, any feedbacks would be much appreciated cause I need to learn too eheheh

Do you need to have de-odex rom for this??
I copied the file and changed the permissions and then hit reboot, but nothing changed..
Now deleted the odex part of this file from the folder and reboot..now i get a black screen with clock widget and screen lock icon which is vanilla rom style ... I have attached the screen shot below..
Also after doing this change, I do not get the lockscreen wallpaper option under personalization anymore...

Yes, I am working on this.
If you delete the odex file then it reverts to aosp lockscreen just like deleting the lockscreen apk.
The problem I have now is that the default image is a .jpg which does not support transparency.
I have fully decompiled the apk and am going through all the xml files to find where I can enable .png support.
I though I had found it in a hex colour string for the background colour and changed the first 2 numbers to 100%
i.e. 00000000 to FF000000 which should be 100% transparent but it do not work.
More work to do I think.
As some have asked, I can mod this to make more blinds on the lockscreen and and also to make the "twist" in the blinds a bit more pronounced. I can also hide the clock, camer and music icons for those that want it.
I am locking this thread until I sort out the issues.
If you can help me please pm me

[Mod] [XT1060] [02Apr14] VZW Dev Ed Holo Blue Purge (Sliders, Checkboxes, etc)

This is my work in progress for the guide listed here. Credit goes to @enricocid and, by proxy, everyone else in that thread. I've finished framework-res.apk, systemUI, and Settings. I don't know if I feel like messing with the rest. Perhaps I'll do MMS.apk in the future for the lulz.
1. AOSP-like Status Bar with 4G instead of Verizon's gaudy one. (credit @chaoslimits)
2. White accents in lieu of 33b5e5 (most notably check boxes, toggles, volume sliders, etc)
I have not modded apps like dialer mostly due to the fact that I like them being different. The blue isn't distracting and awful everywhere, but in the system itself, it is.
(backup current Settings.apk/odex, SystemUI.apk/odex, framework-res.apk)
Instructions: Download, unzip, replace, set permissions rw-r-r (recommend using TWRP's file manager or adb since replacing your framework-res.apk is going to make the normal UI unusable if you perform this within android), reboot
No ETA on a fully flashable recovery .zip
I also have only a Verizon Dev Ed to test on, and, no, this will not work on XT1053/XT1058. I may create one at a later date, but probably not for 4.4.2 since I don't think I'll be flashing for a while. Sorry, folks. The guide I've linked in the intro paragraph is more than enough if you're adventurous enough. Both SystemUI and Settings are Odexed now.

Nice. I did the same mod for my phone. Do you have some additional transparency going on? Or did he update the tutorial with additional mods?

Yeah I don't use Xposed for that very reason; I don't want to sacrifice ART runtime.
Your mods should on ART as long as you you odex the files. You didn't want to do the mod to SMS app? That one was fairly risk free too.
Also you can take the zip from my AOSP mod and replace the files for an easy flashable zip.

Get me a copy of your framework-res.apk, systemui.apk/odex, settings.apk/odex and I'll have a look when I get time. You may need to re-odex yourself, but I believe my device may be able to odex it if the $BOOTCLASSPATH is the same. At any rate, I'll get you a deodexed and an odexed version, just asking you don't get your pitchfork out if the odexed fc's.
Is you internal storage bar in Settings/Apps blue or white with this mod?
Thanks.
