I hide the update notification for 4.4.3 a while ago and have been unable to find the thread that described how to do this. I believe it involved editing a value in SQLite and maybe renaming an apk too?
Any help would be appreciated.
thanks

This what you're talking about?
was it the etc/security/otacerts.zip rename to otacerts.bak?

Can anyone help me try and remove the DriveSmart settings menu found in Settings.
I deleted the DriveSmart APKs but its still showing in Settings which means its hardcoded in there...
you will have to decompile the settings.apk and remove the entire line of drivesmart
I actually tried that already but couldn't recompile it for some reason.
Can you give it a go? I can send you the edited files...

Actually, only this line needs to be edited if I'm not mistaken:
Path: res\values\
File: bools.xml
Line: <bool name="has_tmo_driveSmart_settings">true</bool>
Process: Change the value from true to false
Any help would be appreciated. I've been trying but get errors when I try to recompile Settings.apk
Thanks!
Here's the original APK.
I hope someone can help me out. I've used APK Manager and APK Edit and neither tool can recompile it after I've edited it...
I was kinda hoping it would get rid of the settings portion when the apk's for drive smart were deleted as well. oh well.
That is exactly what this is aimed at.
I was able to delete the strings from the de-compiled code however, I got errors when re-compiling it.
Hopefully, someone out there can help with this...

Was finally able to compile it without any errors.
Someone, try this please: Modified T-Mo Froyo Settings
Thanks!
Has anyone tried the modified Settings I posted?
I'll try it here in a little bit. If not today than tomorrow and let you know. Just install zip via recovery?
Nope. Rename the existing Settings.apk and Setting.odex and then move the modified Settings.apk to system/app/
Don't forget to set the correct permissions...
Thanks!

I still really want this done.
Can someone post a deodexed Settings.apk from the latest FroYo update please...
Anyone figure this out yet? I tried placing the settings.apk from this thread into my working kitchen folder over writing the stock settings.apk but when I flashed the rom the settings option was missing from the app draw???
I see some threads that are exactly what I want, but they are for the Nook and things don't look to match up well enough for me to use those instructions.
I have an Epic4G (GalaxyS) on Sprint, and have recently flashed with Legendary ROM 2.2. Now I'm getting constant update alerts to download the new firmware update from Sprint. At this point, it's already downloaded the update so I need to find where it is and get rid of that file as well.
I've read about the editing the devicemanager.db file, but I am not finding that file in the /data tree. I also read the build.prop thread, but it looks like they want you to grab a pre-built build.prop that's obviously for the nook.
Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated!

Has anyone found a way to remove the battery full notification from the 2.3.3 OTA Rom? I know this has been asked before, but I can't tell if the answer is still no, or I simply haven't found the correct thread.

It has been removed in most custom OTA ROMs
Assuming that I don't want to switch to another ROM, is it possible for me to remove the notification from the stock ROM (by modifying framework-res.apk or such), or can the removal only be done when compiling from LG's source?

It can removed from the stock rom, but you need to know exactly what you're doing, as far as modding smali in apks.
Can you give me any help to point me in the right direction for what I need to do? I think I know how to edit the apk's, and I am guessing that I would need to edit one of the xml files, but the naming conventions are not always logical. For example, config_animateScreenLights is related to the crt screen off animation for some reason.

This is not an xml edit, its a small smali edit, but here goes:
adb pull SystemUI.apk from /system/app and decompile SystemUI.apk, navigate to
\smali\com\android\systemui\statusbar\policy\StatusBarPolicy.smali
Find & remove the ENTIRE "showChargingComplete" method
then find and remove this line
Code:
invoke-direct {p0}, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/policy/StatusBarPolicy;->showChargingComplete()V
Recompile SystemUI.apk and push to /system/app, then reboot.
If this sounds too hard or tricky, let me know.
Thanks! That worked perfectly.
I don't suppose you could post a link to that modified SystemUI.apk file? I'd love to get rid of the battery full popup, but I've never compiled/decompiled an .apk, so it sure would be a time saver.
Thanks in advance!
I certainly can. A couple of things first. I found that using the OTA, you cannot just push the SystemUI.apk to your phone using adb (it has to do with the permissions baked into the ROM), I had to make a flashable zip. This means that you will need clockworkMOD to flash the zip. Also, the SystemUI.apk that I have includes xboarder56's green signal fix (from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179748&highlight=ota+gingerbread). I can apply the battery popup fix to a stock SystemUI.apk if you want, just let me know. In any case, I have to recreate the flashable zip, so it will take a few days.
I'm rooted, running the rooted but stock ROM "P999_2.3.3_Stock_OTA" by xboarder.
The only mod I've added is the battery icon mod from this thread installed: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1190283&highlight=battery+mod
So I assume you can't just pull the SystemUI.apk and post, then copy in place using ES Explorer? If you can post a flashable .zip that works for me, whatever is easiest. Many, many thanks....
Hey guys, I've been trying out http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/themes-apps/mod-aosp-signal-icons-t2584351 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2641297 but completely forgot to back up my original systemUI.apk like an idiot.
I have attempted extracting from ATT_XT1058_4.4-13.11.1Q2.X-69-3_CFC_1FF.xml.zip but this appears to be just 4.4, whereas when I check the OTA Blur_Version.140.44.5.ghost_att.ATT.en.US_2.zip, I can see there's a .p patch file, however I'm at a loss as to where to go from here. Adding in the 4.4 SystemUI.apk just gives me a black background with force closes, and I don't know how to patch the apk with the .p file.
Long story short - can someone please extract their SystemUI.apk from their AT&T XT1058 4.4.2 rom and post here?
Okay, since I found out that ATT 4.4.2 firmware was finally added to http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=0, I was able to download and extract.
If anyone else ever has the same issue, the SystemUI.apk and .odex are attached
Thanks a lot

Put it in the root directory, system/app
Hi all,
I'm using Magisk for root, and as I know I can't modify anything in /system like SuperSU or other root. So I tried to replace directly in twrp the NotoColorEmoji.ttf (in /system/fonts) with the one in the ios10Emoji module. I extracted it, then rename exactly same as the original, move in system/fonts and chmod 644.
Unfortunately it didn't work, and I lost all of my emojis!
Of course I've saved the original file before this, so I've tried to restore the original... But it didn't fix anything at all, and I don't know what to do to recover my emojis now...
Anyone can explain me how to recover emojis ? Ios10 or original whatever, but I need emojis
Thanks for your help
Search in themes section, there is a thread with flashable emojis

Yeah I've tried many solutions but not the flashable zip, I'm going to try WETA mod now thanks you
Hmmm didn't work too, I get same result after flashing..
Any solution ? I know I can restore a previous backup, but I prefer to understand what is happening to get out of it alone in the future
