Give this a try, but you need to install one of the recommended launcher then install the S5 theme app. Your phone should looks just like the S5 for $1. Good luck!

Ah, but then I'd lose the weather widget. Thanks for the suggestion though. I might just flash the Alliance rom

[Q]Reinstall Samsung Stock Weather Widget?

How can I reinstall the Stock Weather Widget? I thought I saw a deodexed SW package for the charge here somewhere. Would I just need to drag the deodex and APK to the SD card?
Running Gummy and imnuts Kernel currently. Thanks in advance.
It may not be that easy, depending on what ROM you are running you may need the Samsung app that manages their widgets and you then could likely use the deodexed version of the weather widget.
The hard part is we don't have a key or legend to work from if we what the file names equaled we could figure it out.

I'm not sure what the answer is either, but I had always thought that the stock weather widget was some weatherbug widget?
In any case, you should check out Beautiful Widgets. It costs a bit, but it has great weather and clock widgets as well as skinning features.

Translucent status bar

I'm looking to get a translucent status bar on the homescreen, using Go Launcher.
Am rooted, but don't seem to be able to find any mods that can do it? Preferably would like to be able to choose %wise how translucent it is.
Here is an example from the HTC One showing it, and on my S4 lockscreen it does it. But would like it on the home screen too. When i'm in apps its fine to remain black.
Anyone know?
I'm pretty sure the launcher has to support statusbar transparency, and I don't know if Go Launcher does or not. Go Launcher sucks anyway; use Nova instead.

Ah is it just part of the launcher, that makes sense then. I'll give Nova a try.
Thanks!

Well, technically, it's not part of the launcher...it's still part of the rom's system UI. But the launcher has a bit of control, and can enable or disable the transparency. When the launcher doesn't support transparency, the rom views that as "disabling" it, and the statusbar is opaque. But you get the idea.
EDIT: Wait, hold the phone. What rom are you running?

LG Conceirge Widget

Does anybody have a link to the default Accuweather widget?
I'm looking to customize the look of my phone using Nova-Launcher and actually like that widget (didn't see it as an option)
Thanks and I appreciate any help.

LG widgets won't work on Nova.
Someone made a damn good replica using Zooper widgets, give it a search in the play store.

Ah thanks, I'll search for it. You know if it has the little tip under the widget too? I thought those were pretty unique.
It does but it is based off the forecast which then triggers a certain text that the person entered. You can change what it says to your liking though.

Not too bad. Just downloaded Zooper, and can't find it. Do you happen to know the name, or the best way of finding it?
Thanks again

Lol yeah first time using a launcher other than touchwiz
I don't believe that you can use the stock weather widget in Nova, but you can find plenty of other nice clock/weather widgets available. Beautiful Widgets is a good starting point.
I also run Nova, and use HD widgets for Weather/Clock widget.

Change theme without root?

I have a theme from the theme store on my Verizon but I'd like to tweak with it.
What would you like to do? Examples?

There is plenty of things to do for as launchers, icons, fonts and apps to improve things. I've rooted plenty of devices on my own but now I'm stuck with the at&t note 4 locked bootloader just like verizon's. This is mine with nova launcher, zooper custom widgets, dash clock widget, note 5/s6 icons and Belle ui icons. Roundr @13%.
