All the changes have been merged into CyanogenMod 5.0.7 ! Please do NOT flash any of the current listed versions. I will remove this message if bcrook88, pershoot, or myself updates anything.
Also, I've since release a Spare Parts update for CM5.0.7. Find it here:

Hi all,
Note: This replaces your framework and services.jar, meaning Trackball Alert will not work, custom clock colours will revert, and notification in successions will also not work (since services.jar is replaced).
ALWAYS NANDROID FIRST !

Old Post:
Been a while since I did anything for Android, so I decided to first tackle one of the problems I have with it, which is, "Why must Android show the red arrows when I make a mistake, even in stealth mode?" I find it quite "insecure" .
Anyway, I know there's a morph to have a invisible lockscreen posted in david1711's thread, but this mod allows it to be an option . Enough talk, here's some screenshots:

Changelog:
250510:
- Added ability to change battery percentage colour
- Added option to hide clock on status bar
- Attempt to fix the percent alignment on D/S devices
240510:
- Implemented 2 additional options.
- "Show unlock message" will hide the "Draw pattern to unlock" message
- "Show unlock error messages" will hide the "Sorry, try again" message
- However, if you get the incorrect pattern, it will still show the 30 seconds countdown. That is not configurable, don't intend to make it configurable as well.
- Removed Browser.apk from package since it's included in CM5.0.7 latest test releases now .
230510:
- Notification items' colours are now changeable. HOWEVER, not all notification items will change, as some of them are implemented in a different way by the app dev themselves . Not sure if I can do anything about it yet.
- Re-organized SpareParts. For those asking, I have no idea what PLMN and SPN means, I took it from the source variable names. What I do know is they are related to carrier, and you can change them for your carrier colour to change.
- Updated source to CM's latest .
180510:
- Added various options into spare parts to allow configuration of clock, date, and many other colours. A reboot is required for the changes to take effect! SPN and PLMN is for the carrier .
170510 #2:
- Removed the swipe function in browser . It broke the Browser completely. Sorry about the error.
- Browser.apk no longer available as standalone since all it does is increase the max tabs from 8 to 16. It is still in the update.zip .
- Fixed the PIN lock buttons getting cut off if you use both visible dots and custom message. Thanks to _avatar for the help !
170510:
-Made some modifications to Browser.apk, as follows:
- If in fullscreen mode, swipe down on the title/address bar to show notifications/status bar, touch anywhere on the webpage will hide it back.
- Increased max number of tabs from 8 to 16.
- It is included with this mod update.zip because I've made some changes to framework, and I'm not sure how well it will work on the previous CM5.0.6 framework. A standalone link is also available, please report if it works for those on CM5.0.6 or CM5.0.7 WITHOUT the rest of our framework modifications.
160510:
Added option to make the delay on incorrect pattern customizable. (I dislike the delay!)
Changed the correct delay of PIN lock by avatar from 750ms to 0ms. Report if there're problems .
150510 #3:
Made it show 6 apps by default, otherwise it will cause a boot loop unless you've used spare parts first.
150510 #2:
Fixed a visual glitch with the focus/select drawable being cut off for the right-most apps if set to 12 recent apps.
150510:
Test release with configurable number of recent apps. Configure in SpareParts. 9 and 12 is now working but looks wrong (left-aligned). pershoot/bcrook88/myself are working on it. Removed previous version as invisible slider broke too many things. Give pershoot's links a try if you are looking for them since he has not added the invisible slider part. For those who have flashed my previous test release containing Browser.apk, please push Browser.apk from CM5.0.7-test2, or simply reflash CM5.0.7-test2 (or test whatever, if you're on D/S ).

Thanks to everyone who guided me on GitHub, I've used it before but never really utilized its merging and branching power . All source is now available on http://github.com/Wysie. For these mod, you will want to look at frameworks_base, frameworks_policies, spareparts and settings.
Special thanks to:
pershoot - For being a very helpful guy throughout, esp. with his help with the make commands (although he suggested I do a full make ), and for the 15 recent apps layout, from which 9 and 12 was derived from
bcrook88 - Same as above, without the full make

david1711 - I think he came up with the invisible lockscreen morph
britoso - I used part of his XML for the custom message

Have an option in Spare Parts to reset all colours to defaults?
sweet thanks so much!! downloading now
looks like the link is broken....
Re-uploading, try in a minute or so, I based the update.zip off pershoot's 15apps, and forgot to remove one line (not major, but I'm ocd ).
thank you kind sir.....great work!
Thank you! I got tired of people peeking over to see my lockscreen combination lol.
A lot of apps FC after flashing, the notification bar disappeared and I cannot switch off my phone
I previously installed pershoot's OCUV kernel + 15 Recent apps on CM 5.0.7 Test 1
[Request] optional text into the lockscreen
I love it
Request:
would it be possible to implement an option like this in settings:
So everyone can insert a specific text into the lockscreen??

same for me!
I would even say all apps produce fc
I'm not using CM at the moment. I switch back and forth between it and my own custom Desire Rom. But this is the first useful lockscreen mod for CM that i have seen so far.. Great work!
rori: Thanks for the suggestion, I'll look into it. By the way, with the britoso mod, what happens if you have the dots on? Or are they permanently gone?
For those of you having FCs, I'll be honest with you, I have zero idea why . Are you all using any morphs? How about flashing CM5.0.7-Test, then my update.zip again? Pershoot's changes will also replace services.jar, although I'm not too sure if it will affect anything. I'm doing a repo sync now and will make a version for test2 asap.
ill roll this in tonight to the 15recent.
good work
Thanks pershoot !
Updated update.zip file in first post for CM5.0.7-test2!

That xml layout mod is for the slide-lock-screen with the slider below the text. There are ways of showing a view below another, example , Not tried this but it looks feasible.
Any chance you could implement hiding the clock and/or date?
I have a live wallpaper that displays the time. (ping pong)
Hi britoso, thx for the help. Actually I've already added a line of text under, but it doesn't seem to look good. Adding the text directly over doesn't look good either .

Timetable is a versatile scheduler for your Android phone. If you have a recurring schedule you have to stick to, Timetable will help you keep track of it. Its simple, elegant interface will get you to the information you need, quickly and efficiently, with intuitive navigation and a familiar timetable structure. Setting up your timetable takes mere minutes, and it is intuitive and easy - just press + to get started!
Timetable was built with the Android Design guidelines in mind, and follows them to a tee. It's optimised for Holo and optimised for tablets.
Latest - 1.0-beta1:
Code:
- Added a landscape optimised version of About page
- Removed 'Add Task' button
- Refined colours of tablet mode
- Swapped room and time around in expanded view
- Weeks can be added indefinitely from the action bar drop-down
- Classes can be added to any existing week
- Empty weeks are removed on app launch
Latest Market release - 0.9.1:
Code:
- Fixed a big bug - force close / timetable disappear on leaving for a while
- Two new UIs - compact and expanded - no longer uses ListView, much more attractive
- These UIs can be swapped between in the preferences, or to classic if you wish
- Compact style can be switched between displaying the room or start time
- Break periods are coloured grey
- On the current day, all periods up to and including the current one are highlighted
All 1.0 changes so far:

- Removed a whole heap of old code, renamed some classes
- Re-worked the widget, hopefully fixes some crashes + much prettier
- Added 'Refresh' menu item - ie current period will be highlighted on refresh
- Added themes - Light and Dark
- Light is Theme.Holo.Light on 3.0-3.2, Theme.Holo.Light.DarkActionBar on 4.0+ and Theme.Light on legacy
- Dark is Theme.Holo on 3.0+ and Theme on legacy (default)
- Switch themes in preferences

- All menu items work properly in both modes now
- Made the preferences work better than before

Your application has not Saturday and Sunday !!!
But i've classes this days
and i like to add end time of my classes !
Looks good, but i'll make two suggestions:
1- A widget. It's really handy to have one on the homescreen so i can view the class room easily.
2- we can choose the intervarls of the classes. for ex: 8:00 - 8:30 8:30 - 9:00....
also if you could implement a function to import holidays from google calendar would be really good.
I'm going to download and test it. Keep up the good work
I had an end time until I realised the end time ought to be the same as the start of the next period. I haven't met anyone who has classes on Saturday or Sunday before, I might be able to add them in though!
Thanks a Ton.....works perfectly on my G2x, Galaxy Nexus, SGS2 and HTC Sensation XE......It's a amazing!!!
very nice.

in my country school starts from monday to saturday ..
and, your apps doesn't support landscape mode ?
Thanks a lot! Maybe to include a overview home page with an option to add additional notes about the day

An quick look page would be amazing and a widget.......
Awesome app for a student like me
Very good idea, but may I suggest allowing people to add sub-items or events under each class to list homework. If this was implemented I would absolutely use this. Keep up the good work!
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk
It's locked in portrait mode for two reasons: It's not as useful in landscape, and people were getting weird crashes (the timetable disappeared and didn't come back until you force quit, which I've found still happens if you leave the app alone on the settings screen - it's some strange bug in the cursor object, I think). I might get on to making a landscape mode when I start working on the tablet optimisation, but that may not be for a while.
The weekend classes will probably need to wait too, I just don't think there's enough room on the screen to fit 7, or even 6, tabs. I'll implement the two days once I figure out how to use tabs as fragments, because then there won't be width constraints.
I'll start work on a widget first, depending on how difficult it is, expect the widget by this time next week, perhaps. I was planning on making it a premium feature, but since everyone seems to want it, I'll probably make it free, and find something else to be premium.
Hi thanks for the app i think its a brilliant idea and i love it so far!!
Just a request my school works on a 6 day cycle but we only have school from mon to fri so for example if mon is day 1 then the next mon would be day 6 and tues day 1 if that makes sense. I was wondering if there would be some way for me to use the app with this 6 day cycle?
Thanks again for the awesome app!

Found a bug:
When setting up you add activities. After this you build the time table.
If you put now a activity into the time table, then go back and rename it and press next again, the app force closes.
Just a little hint.
Anyway: awesome app.
Sent from my loved HTC Desire [email protected] <3
So it does! I'll look into it. Thanks for pointing me to the bug, but in future, could you email it using the "Report Bug" option in the app's settings?
Regarding the 6-day cycle, Bos1man, I don't know how I might implement that. I'll try my best to add that while I'm adding weekends and whatnot.
v0.8 will feature a widget or two, a slightly better UI in the timetable itself (with the current period highlighted), and a few bug fixes (the one Ditti4 found, hopefully, and also one I just found in the edit screen which ought to be easily fixed). It should be out by this time next week, we'll see.
EDIT: I've had a thought - I'm going to implement a backup/restore function with plain text files on the SD card. I'll pop some templates in the OP when that happens.
As for the bug with going back and changing an activity, I can only really say "don't do it" for the moment... I can't think of a good way to work around the bug short of deleting the items that you've changed the activity of. If that's a reasonable solution, fine, I'll do that, but I'm not sure it is...
Thanks appreciate u looking in to it

It think it should be ok.
And as solution for the 6-day-thing:
Maybe you can add the possibility to add as much weeks as we want. This would be enough for the start, I think.
And I will use the bug report option in the app in the future - but I didn't know that it is existing.
Sent from my loved HTC Desire [email protected] <3
If I understood Bos1man correctly, making it as many weeks as you want would require him to enter the same six days' worth of information 5 times in a row, which would be a horrendous bore. I'm sure there's something I could do to make this unnecessary. I'll need to think about it.
I'll be pushing 0.7.2 to the market by the end of the day (Australia). It will have a working backup, but no working restore. 0.7.1 is uploading currently, and features:
- Changed Donate button to PayPal donation link
- Fixed bug in edit screen with list flowing into buttons
- Added dummy Backup and Restore options in settings, they just make toasts
Nice. Will u add custom end time for classes like on Timetable? Here in Denmark classes are 45minutes...
Here are examples of widgets. Modded to have transparency.
No update link here? i haven't access to market !
the dropbox link is the old version (0.7-rc5)
Effective & simple & open source with minimalistic appearance.
Features:
- Run applications fast: when is search narrowed down to only one application, it can be automaticaly started (Autostart button).
- NEW - Recent apps always on top of the search and well visible.
- Eliminate need for various apps: add any activity of any app on your device to list of apps (e.g. Wifi settings, ...).
- Get rid of un-unistalable apps: hide any app from list of apps adding it to the hide list.
- Improve readability of your list of applications: rename any app however you like.
- Stay focused: icons of apps and wallpapers are not displayed. This also improves response.
- Search naturally: The space character " " is mapped to the "any set of characters". (i.e. in terms of REGEX " " is replaced with "*." ) This feature is demostrated on the screenshot.
- Advaced search using REGEX.
- Includes basic widgets (wifi, blue tooth, cam)
Note:
-NEW - To access menu without menu button search " Menu-Launcher" item.
-I have lost my keystore so I will have to create this update as new version on Google Play
Last update:
12.10.2012

Well you could install button savior if u have root access. Or I could put "menu-open" into the list of applications. Do you have some proposal, how to solve this?
I'm not sure why it doesn't appear. I don't have this problem with other apps. Perhaps it's being rendered off the screen?

future without menu button
i have gathered more info about this and it looks that I will provide you with alternate solution, because it is suggested that developer should not use menu button any more for 3+.
Options are:
.menu button between other widgets
.menu button in all lists as item - searchable
I'm happy to try test versions if it would help.

just perfect for me.. thank you! i use this as my default launcher on my phone. i tend to use only minimalist apps. and white text on black background is optimum!
i now also have a nook simple touch ereader. and eink prefers black text on white background. could you add reverse colour, as an option perhaps?
Attemption to get 3 of 3:

- big visible area of the running application
Generally designed for two-handed input in landscape mode.
Mimic side-sliders physical keyboard. Enforces landscape screen-mode
Current status: community expectations
FAQ: v0.5 and higher
1. What's the idea, advantages, strong sides?
- Big, semitransparent, only and just for landscape.
Enforces landscape by itself. Designed for two-handed usage.
Also - automatically switches system back to the previous IME,
so you'll be using whatever keybard you like in portrait.
- (from v0.6) working hotkeys on Ctrl+key
(...on android 3.0 and higher; try Menu+key on android 2.x)
2. How to launch?
- Settings > Languages and Input
Enable "Bumper", and set it as the default keyboard.
3. Where is the preferences?
- Settings > Languages and Input.
Search for button/line marked "Bumper".
4. Wow, i've just enabled it, and the phone/tabled are now fixed in landscape! Make everything back!
- Slow down, that's the point! Keyboard enforces your device to stay in landscape.
So, the main way to get things back - choose/launch another one.
5. That's weird. Are you suppose I'll go to the Settings each time?!
- Of course no! You only have to enable "Bumper" in accessibilities,
this will create quick-access area at the top-right corner of the screen.
6. I've enabled accessibility, and see weird semitransparent pink box.
- You are on the right way. It is the "quick-access area". Now, you can do next things:
a. tap it: force keyboard appear/hide
b. swipe-down: show keyboard picker
c. swipe right-to-left: minimize area into notification
d. swipe left-to-right: switch back to the previous IME, if "Bumper" is ongoing
e. long press: preferences
7. Do I need to use keyboard picker dialog each time i wanna lauch Bumper?
- Yeas, there are no other "non-root" way to switch the system to new IME - only you can do it, manually.
From the other hand, currently set IME is able to freely switch system to the any other enabled IME (and die after that, ha-ha)
8. I wanna change layout/labels/language, or add new. What I have to do?
First of, you have to create somewhere folder, and specify it's path in the preferences.
After that, you are free to put your custom files according to subfolders structure:
- "layouts" - there are button grids expected
- "labels" - what to draw on the keys
- "kcms" - similar to android kcm files, except of "axis" and "map" signatures are not currently supported
- "themes" - appearance
9. I wanna change layout/labels/language, any readings?
You can unpack apk as a simple zip, and check for content inside of "assets" folder.
All used files are the plain text, so you'll need any text editor.
Key names:
keycode names in cm11 sources
they are again, in cm12 sources
Notes about labels:
Instead of .kcm files, there are sequences of the Unicode characters allowed.
But the space character is allowed only stand-alone, so use \u0020 insead.
More info:
Related targets:
- KCM* files community, for more languages support
- Button-grids and layout-localization community, just for project's growing
- Linux-on-phone community can also find it usefull, I think
*KCM-parser currently used allows only "key" description in file, "map" and "axis" signatures will cause errors
Dev notes:
- since I'm a newbie in development, project will grow slowly
- but when I'll not be scared of own code anymore, I'll make it open-source
- you are free to make repacks/reposts. (WTFPL)
- you are free to make own similar projects. Just post link here, maybe i'll use your one =)
- behaviour is sensitive to the whole **** going on deep inside android, can't fight with that
Credits:
- will be added during beta test, but you can ask in PM
Download: alpha 0.8 (2016 mar 13)
Lack some language? Make your own .kcm
Application Not Responding in LG Optimus 4x HD [ICS]
Update: alpha 0.4
What's new:
- added correct portrait-mode support
- added non-overlay mode for landscape (breaks the whole idea, lol)
- support of autopopup
- added basic (primitive) settings
There are still 2 separated versions due to hardcoded reasons.
You are free (and welcomed) to make own repacks based on ru-en version if you need 2 languages.
External data support - update 0.4.2
It's a starting point for the comunity: now you can freely add custom files.
Ho to load files from sdcard:
1. Create the "root" folder somewhere you wish.
2. Make subfolders you need, you'll be placing files here*:
- "layouts" for key layouts
- "labels" for displayed key names
- "kcms" for .kcm files - languages support
3. Specify the path to the "root" folder in preferences.
This files are plain text, so you can modify them by simple notepad
Examples may be unpacked directly from apk, they contain small helping notes
* - "root" subfolders structure are similar to "assets" structure inside the apk.
Files from the "assets" are listed dynamically, so it's easier now to make own repacks, but the "defaults" are still hardcoded.
What's new:
- additional files may be loaded from sdcard
- preferences to switch layouts and labels
- preferences to manage languages
- vibration may be switched off
If you want to write your own layout, check out for the keycode names:
keycode names in cm11 sources
they are again, in cm12 sources
Dev (mine) request: post here .kcm files of not yet supported languages, they'll be included in the future builds. And share the keyboard layouts.
Update 0.4.3 - Small fixes
What's new:
- fixed unicode character sequence reading from .labels.txt files
- added quick-toast notification on language switch
- added Ukranian kcm and labels (due to my location)
Remind you: For more languages be supported, make appropriate .kcm files
How to load files dynamically from sdcard:
If you unpack apk like a zip, you'll find "assets" folder with 3 subfolders:
- layouts //grids of keys
- labels //names of the keys, displayed to user
- kcms //languages
Make somewhere on the sdcard "root" folder with similar subfolders you need,
and specify the path to this "root" folder in the app preferences.
That's all. Now, files will be listed from this subfolders.
I'm thinking on way of keys autorepeat realization, so it'll be the next ferature.
Bumper alpha 05 - back to original concept
What's new:
- removed portrait mode support (instead - previous IME is auto-enabled)
- removed non-transparent mode
- trigger is now on separated service (which have to be enabled in "accessibilities")
There are also updated first post, to match changes.
Bumper alpha 06 - autorepeat & hotkeys support
What's new:
- keys are autorepeating!
- hotkeys (Ctrl+X/C/V/A/arrows) are working! on android 3.0+
- Enter now calls for fields action
Any feedbacks? Any custom .kcm files or grids?
Notes about hotkeys:
- I haven't reimplemented the existing wheels, just made better communication with android, so hotkeys on Ctrl work on 3.0+ since it was presented in android 3.0
- As far as I know it could be possible to use Menu+X/C/V combinations on
Android prior to 3.0. Can't test it without device.
- Opera mini freezes/crashes on Ctrl+key combinations outside of input fields (you could force Bumper appear anywhere, remember?). Not my fault. AFAIK it behaves similar with physical keyboards.
Bumper alpha 07 - themeable, little improvements
What's new:
- customizable themes*
- quick access area now looks nice
- new gesture on QAA: long press -> preferences
- QAA contains CAPS/SCROLL/NUM lock's ligths/lamps
- CapsLock at the first row (where was big dead key)
- better stability during typing
*place theme files into [directory_in_preferences]/themes/
Bumper alpha 0.8 - sticky modifiers, fn key support
What's new
- sticky mode (affects Shift's/Ctrl's/Alt's)*
- fn+key -> another key**
- "key_toggled: " field in the themes
- theme files are checked for the errors, like other files do
- changed included set of keyboards
- minor fixes
*first tap - key is sticked, second - toggled, third - released
You could use modifiers as before (till pressed), since sticked state will not be set in case of non-modifier was pressed when modifies was being holded
** Check for assets inside of apk for more info
It seams like I have 8-10 followers, who are waiting for each update...
Don't be silent!
P.S. Updates... There will be no any new features for some months, I think.
Dear All
It took me some time to find this easy solution - as most of the guides in the net are faulty.
So here's the short guide for the "searching ppl":
How to add Multi User to Galaxy S7 Edge (and other Samsung Phones) - ROOT required!
Generally you have to edit the file /system/build.prop and add three lines at the end of the file:
- Download from App Store: "BuildProp Editor"
- Edit & add above three lines to build.prop at the end of the file
Code:
# Multi Users
fw.max_users=3
fw.show_multiuserui=1
- Make sure, all letters are SMALL, NO CAPITALS - otherwise it won't work!
- Save & Reboot
That's it...
- Add users by dragging down the status bar twice
- Swith users by holding the power button (shutdown menu is extended)

PS: see post #3 on how to add security for further users
How fix the password problem?
The multiuser is activated, but I can not assign a password to the created user, always that I try the application gives an error and closes instantly.
Same as nothing to have an unprotected user on the phone.
Thanks in advance.

Hi WebMaster - thanks for the hint! (And of course you're right: unusable, if not locked)
I tried it and you are right, IF you select user directly after startup from the lockscreen. I went from there into settings --> Security and before adding a PIN, it crashed.
When I do it the other way round, it works perfectly:
1. Logon with your root (normal) profile, wait until everything has started up
2. Then switch to the other user
3. Adding fingerprint & PIN from there works as normal.
After this, you can switch also from the initial lockscreen and you're asked for Fingerprint and/or PIN

Hi Cris,
this "method" is not working with my rooted S7 and Nougat.
Setting app is crashing - always!
I am running Android 6.0.1 on a TV box. I have the user icon in the drop down menu, but nothing happens when I click it. So then I added your code to see if it changed anything, but still, nothing happens. Any ideas?
UPDATE: It worked. I had mistyped a line. Haha. Thanks for the code!!
I can not give a different name for each user
Does somebody know how to do it?
worked in my rooted Samsung a8 2018
I found it , thanks
