I am on 5.0.8 Just flashed all morphs i try that say they are for 5.0.8 do one of 2 things eith erhte control file vanishes after extraction or it just sits at appying the framwork-res.apk for ever. Any ideas?
Thanks
I am having the same problem. Tried with the desire notification bar and waited half an hour without anything happening other than a message saying:
"Applying framework-res.apk theme 1 of 1"
Yeah no fun! I love how fast and smooth 5.0.8 is but i want a black bar damnit! Lol.
You can change your applying speed in the settings from metamorph.
Control File is missing is in 99,9% of all the problem of the user. You don't have to rename the file. In the zip file is a xml file. This must have the same name as the zip file. If you renamed it, it can't be found by metamorph.
Look at my orphs. I know, that they work on cyanogen.
I am jsut extracting the zip with MM like i normally do. or mannly though windows. I see the XML there, and it will start to apply then never finish. It says it has root permission.
I tried yours does the same thing applies all of them then sits at Framewok-res.apk and never works. This is a fresh 5.0.8 install full wipe
Make sure USB debugging is ON and try setting the Delay to 2500. I'm running CM 5.0.8 and I was having the same problems but those two things fixed it for me.
Used this black bar, no problem.

Perfect it was the Debugging mode!

Just outta curiosity, did debugging need to be checked or unchecked for it to work for you? Mine works great on the stable version, but I ran into a couple of issues with morphs for the staus bar only (framework.res) on the previous test versions...
EDIT
NEVERMIND..missed a post in the thread with the answer..my bad.

Working great! Awesome work mate! :good:
Just need to hopefully get APM and 3 dot menu button mod working :cyclops:
Looking good, if you need any help with the rom, feel free to hit me up.
A few standard build.prop tweaks that should be useful (taken from and used in most custom ROMs):
ro.da1.enable=false (these next two disable HTC Linkify)
ro.da1.method=false
persist.adb.notify=0 (remove USB debugging icon from statusbar)
windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=280 (improve frame rate and touch response)
debug.performance.tuning=1 (improve touch response)
video.accelerate.hw=1 (video acceleration)
debug.composition.type=gpu (GPU graphics rendering)
ro.kernel.android.checkjni=0 (disable error checking)
Glad to see you guys getting some love.
Nice work OP
I used THIS to remove the 3 dot menu button, but to get long press to work for multitasking button, looks like framework file needs edited, which is likely over my head.
Excellent mate!! Just about to flash now.
Does anyone have the md5 hash for this file?
Just making sure I got a good download
In case anyone is wondering this is what wiper app is for as far as I can see : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1593200
Thanks guys!
I'm on a steep learning curve atm, as is my first attempt in developing/mod after I started reading up about 2 weeks ago.
So all these request may need to be produced by someone more experienced or you have to wait a little so I can work things out!
Nice work radavs. Thanks mate!

MD5 update in OP
and I made a typo as it was the Wiper.apk not app that was FCing which is a totally different thing, I think it has to do with multitasking (number of apps running in the back ground)

Just confirming these tweaks do seem to make a noticeable difference and are worth adding to the bottom of your build.prop.

Yea, seems the proxies are missing from default. No biggie unless you rely on them for foxtel etc.
That is very strange, I haven't changed anything other than Deodex apk's, added root with SuperSU, added Busy box, the rest is from standard Telstra RUU.

I'm hoping to get rich from this! :silly:
Not needed atm, I enjoy the challenge while the the other half is on a cruise around Vanuatu/Noumea!
Once she gets back I don't that I will have time!
Quick feedback so far:
This rom is great, very quick and once I removed the apps I didn't need I couldn't be happier
Can't wait to be able to overclock this beast!
Thanks again for all your hard work.
Just one quick question - is it worth flashing the gsm patch on this? We can already turn off 4g in phone settings....
We don't need the gsm patch, that is only for the at&t Rom.
Us on Telstra are far better off with this Rom. We just need to help get other other nice stuff incorporated.

Yep, no GSM patch needed as we have no ATT crap :cyclops:
Extended Quick Settings mod works fine, as does the 3 dot menu button mod I linked to earlier. Just need Advanced Power Menu.
Hi again Well it took me a bit, but as there was another OTA, it seems I finally got around to getting a new build together. Now up front it should be noted the slight tweak to the name... This stems from the fact that the newest build is in a way a step back from those that came before it, at least in two very large ways:
1) I did not personally carry over all of the themes that had been made for earlier versions of Tweaked (I did bring over the base Black and Blue by @stranula though)
2) I did not invest the time into porting in all of the lockscreens again
My apologies for not doing these things (at least up front, who knows what the future holds), but time is not what it used to be for me so I felt the sacrifice worth it (hopefully folks agree!).
Now that we all understand the meaning behind the name... let's move on to the usual stuff
I AM IN NO WAY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS (GOOD OR BAD) AS A RESULT OF FLASHING OR ATTEMPTING TO FLASH WHAT IS POSTED HERE! It seems that there is considerable variability across our phones, so as always YMMV!
If there is anything you would like to see (or wish wasn't there), let me know. I can't promise I'll do anything about it, but such requests keep me motivated and learning - and thats been the driving force behind this ROM since it began.
You will need to have CWM Recovery already installed on your phone - it should work fine on any of the more recent variants but I've had great luck with the most recent one or two (version 5.0.2.7 can be found here or here) - note that some report issues with nandroids, but I tend not to use them so I haven't experienced any issues. Also, I would strongly recommend doing a data wipe/factory reset within CWM before flashing any of the non-update CWM .zips (that's what I've been doing at least and I have had no problems).
As far as kernels are concerned - there is currently only the stock fp8 kernel. Hopefully that changes at some point, but options are limited.
MY GENERAL RECOMMENDATION:
ODIN back to stock EP4D BEFORE you flash anything (which can be found here). Then either flash the three update .zips that are floating around or (likely easier) take the three OTAs to get to stock FP8A. It just makes for far fewer problems.
CWM Installation instructions:
- Backup your current setup/data
- Download file and place on sdcard
- Boot into CWM recovery
- If flashing full ROM package, its recommended to wipe data/factory reset in CWM recovery
- If flashing update package, its recommended to at least wipe cache/dalvik in CWM recovery
- MAKE SURE TO MOUNT /system IN CWM RECOVERY (it should say "unmount" after system)
- Select and install the .zip you put on your sdcard
Download links can be found further down. Let me know if there are any suggestions/issues/etc - happy flashing!

[size=+1]TWEAKTOOLS[/size]
Now tweaktools is a bit limited compared to FP5 as there are no themes and a number of the CWM mods were scrapped. That being said, there are some goodies to be had and it can always improve
Here is an edited recap of the FP5 overview of Tweaktools:
Getting started
First off, while you can use adb to run tweaktools from a computer, I'm not going to discuss this route (for those with the knowledge it's totally doable). For those going about things on their phone, here is what you need to do:
1) Open the Terminal Emulator app, then type "su" (without the quotes) at the $ prompt and hit enter
2) At least the first time you do this you'll get a prompt for superuser access - allow this of course
NOTE: If a message appears saying su could not be found, go into the Superuser app - you should see a prompt saying update su binary, which you should agree to, and then all should be well
3) Now at a # prompt, type "tweaktools" (again without quotes) and hit enter
4) You are now in tweaktools - read the screen, make selections, and have a good day.
Installing themes via tweaktools
NOTE: THERE ARE NO THEMES AVAILABLE CURRENTLY!!!
1) Start tweaktools
2) Select the themes option
3) Select a theme you are interested in
4) Here you can choose to view a screenshot (this should open it up in your browser on your phone), just DL the theme, just flash the theme if already DLed, or do a combination DL/flash.
NOTE: Themes are best experienced when flashed over the default black and blue theme - if you are not currently on that theme (or aren't sure what you are on) you should first flash back to that - THEN go through and select the new theme you are interested in. If you do not, there WILL be problems (either aethetic or functional)!
Installing debloated/selected system apps via tweaktools
1) Start tweaktools
2) Select the applications option
3) Choose what you would like to do, which includes:
- Looking through a number of debloated/preselected system apps available through tweaktools and installing
- Removing any of the system apps that have been installed via tweaktools
- Install/remove system apps from your sdcard
NOTE: Remember - these are apps that are going to /system/app - which is different than installing an apk from the play store for example.
Installing CWM-flashable mods via tweaktools
1) Start tweaktools
2) Select the CWM Mods option
3) Choose a general category to look through
4) Select an option. Here you can choose to just DL the mod, flash the mod if already DLed, or simultaneous DL/flash. Also, for boot animation/shutdown options you can choose to view a preview gif of the animation, which will open in your phones browser.
Installing "tweaks" via tweaktools
1) Start tweaktools
2) Choose tweaks menu
3) Select between init.d and non-init.d based tweaks
- REMEMBER: Many of the tweaks require init.d support, which should work on Tweaked Lite
4) Select the option you would like to install
NOTE: For more information on a number of the init.d-style tweaks, check out this thread, which is where tonsit pulled a number of these from, as well as this thread dSlice put together.
Updating rom via tweaktools
1) Start tweaktools
2) Select the Check for Updates option
3) Here tweaktools will check what rom version you are and let you know if there is an update available on tweaktools
4) If there is, choose "y" to install the update
[size=+1]Tweaktools FAQ[/size]
Q: I can't connect/get into tweaktools - what gives?
A: Sometimes servers get busy, so there will be occasions where DLs will be slow, not work, etc. The best bet is to just give it some time and try again in a little bit.
Q: So I am in tweaktools, but my app/theme/cwm mod doesn't seem to stick/flashes REALLY fast?
A: Most situations can be resolved by simply clearing downloads, exiting tweaktools, and going back in after a little time has passed. Another thing to try is to make sure the phone is NOT connected to your computer once the phone reboots to go into recovery. Something else that I have noticed is that If a problem still persists, you can just download the file then manually go into CWM recovery and flash it there.
Q: When I start tweaktools it says there's an update... now what?
A: Well you should update - the only time updates are made available is when something is fixed or some new functionality is added. There are technically two things that can be updated - the launcher (this update will require a reboot into recovery), and the menu (this does NOT require a reboot). You should definitely keep these up-to-date.
Q: Where can I find more information on tweaktools?
A: More information on all that can be done with this incredibly useful utility can be found here or here!
[size=+1]FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS[/size]
Q: I'm getting a "can't mount /sdcard" in CWM recovery - what should I do?
A: While this doesn't seem to happen often, you can download the ADBsdcardFix.zip here - then extract the folder (should be fine to extract it to your desktop) and attach your phone to the computer via USB (I did this while the phone was already in CWM). Open the newly-extracted ADB folder, and then double-click on the CWMsdcardFix.bat - something should pop up on the screen for a brief second, which is completely normal. After double-clicking the .bat file, on the phone go to mounts and storage, then select mount /sdcard - and it now should work!
All the .bat file does is the following code:
Code:
adb shell
umount /sdcard
rm -f /sdcard
mkdir /sdcard
exit
Q: Hangouts gives me a can't-sign-in error when I first sign in to the phone (i.e. after data wipe, flashing rom, etc.)... WHY YOU BREAK IT?!?!
A: Yeah I'm unsure what the cause is for this (my thinking is with so much initial syncing going on it just gets irritated), but if you reboot your phone (or even just wait a while) the issue will resolve itself.
Q: I'm having overlap issues with statusbar icons and center clock - what should I do? Also notifications aren't clumping like they were before with center clock - what gives?
A: Yup - things may overlap, so you will have to change settings to avoid the issue, or deal with it. And yup, now that center clock is more "true" center, notifications will not clump as they did before.
Q: I set my statusbar to be transparent... but I don't see my wallpaper under it. What gives?
Q: This is more a launcher issue than anything else. I actually edited the TW launcher to make it viewable - and unfortunately behavior of this will vary across launchers.
Q: After first flashing, my statusbar is missing - what do I do?
A: This occasionally happens - it clears up with a reboot. It also clears up after anything activates the statusbar ticker - so doing things like usb connecting your phone to your computer, downloading/installing an app from play store, getting a text - all these things make the statusbar reappear. Note that this only happens after the initial flash.
Q: What the hell is TSMParts?
A: A huge slew of mods and tweaks - here are some notes on them:
Most of the tweaks start at stock-ish defaults.
The statusbar icon tweaks all require a little effort on your part for changes to take effect. All changes can be elicited with a reboot, BUT for most there are other ways:
- Bluetooth/vibrate-silent/alarm icons -- just change their state (on/off or vibrate/sound, etc)
- E911 -- Go into Settings > Location and security... you don't need to do anything else, you should see the change
- Battery/signal -- these just take time... I have yet to figure out a way to get around that - seems a Gingerbread thing...
Q: Why don't you mention blah blah blah in your FAQ? It would be helpful!
A: Because you hadn't told me yet! If you feel something should be added, PM me with exactly what you would have liked to see in the FAQ (so both the Q and the A, and with details) - I of course reserve final editing rights but if I feel the addition is warranted I will add it as close to the original PM as possible.

Thank you for taking the time to put this together. Your efforts are much appreciated!
Also, thanks for putting up with all my questions and helping me learn about Android...
EDIT:
End of Support notice posted to my WIFI Only FP8 Beta Project Thread, HERE.
I also left some Tweaked Lite 1.x TweakTools enable WIFI Only Option breadcrumbs!
If you want, feel free to continue to run WIFI Only Media Player Q/A over there... or not.
...that is all...
agreed, nice work. thanks!
I can confirm that everything is in great working order (even installed the wifi only tweak thanks to Jheide).
just to share my process with others:
was on tweaked 3.2 FP5 (with the FP8 modem updaterizer provided by dwith).
backed up everything via TiBu
rebooted to recovery
mounted system
wiped cache/dalvik
wiped data/factory reset
installed tweakedliteFP8
rebooted
reinstalled apps via play market
installed wifi only tweak via terminal emulator (system did not reboot, but a reboot is necessary, so be sure to do so after exiting TE)
restored data via TiBu
a couple of observations:
- I don't get that screeching noise on video playback on videos taken with this phone - YAY!!!!
- some apps such as Google Earth will NOT download b/c the app says my system is not supported (no worries though, as I can restore the app via TiBu)
- Google Hangouts works completely (even tested video chat, and got audio)
Good to see people (dwitherell especially) are supposing the Charge. Haven't been using mine for anything more than a desk clock, but I know there are some people out there still using it and appreciating the work put into it.
A job well done by all of those involved and dwith.
I am extremely grateful for this. :good:
Thank you very much sir. My 3 charges will receive this on sunday when im back from vacation if I can pull the phones away feom my kids long enough to do it. Damn Minecraft....anyway your awesome thanks again

what lockscreen style does this one actually have?
Not sure yet if I'll install this because I'm not sureif I want to go through the hassle of restoring my phone again but thanks for all your work.
Finally I'm intrigued by your "Empty ZIP" Could I concievable take apks from TiBu and place them in that folder to get a flashable zip?

Finally I'm intrigued by your "Empty ZIP" Could I concievable take apks from TiBu and place them in that folder to get a flashable zip?

Conceivably yes, but in order to truly work it would need a little more (things in /data as opposed to /system primarily) - I would advice NOT using it for this purpose, though it could be a base to use that you could modify to do so with a little research (and trial and error... actually mostly trial and error, at least in my experience lol).
This has two lockscreens - the two I had to do nothing for to add into the rom (beyond allow the one to be accessed). Those would be the usual circle stock one and then sliding-tab AOSP one seen in the screenshot.
apps not working
Iinstalled everything as per directions but I cannot login through Gmail,any ideas?

Need a bit more info... Is there an error or something that comes up? Do you have a data/wifi connection? What if you skip the setup after initial boot and try to add the account after - maybe even after a reboot? I don't have vzw service so I have to skip the initial account setup, then connect ro wfif and add the account after connected.

Well I installed the tweaked. Lite Tom 1.0 , withkernel and radios, but do I need to manually install the systems Apps? I cannot access Gmail even with 4g and wifi it immediately states that my email and password do not match. I also have 2 step verification on,would that be the issue with this version of Gmail? The info is correct,ie password and login. Name.

Ah, so you are ok to do things like go into playstore, yes? And the issue is just GMail? There may very well be sonething you need to do to make the 2 step verification stuff happy, but I am not aware of what it is unfortunately. Sorry for the troubles!
apps not working
No playstore, but I'm going to try and remove the 2 step verification.

On older androids With 2 step verification you need to generate a unique one time password under manage application specific passwords under >settings >security

Thanks for the update
Hopefully this will keep running strong for a while. Typically in the past when the slow-down-over-time problem happened, reflashing ROM usually fixed it for a bit of time, right?
I've gone through some times where I wanted to toss this phone at the wall.

I had the 2 step verification for a while also and it was more trouble than it was worth. I had the same issue as you and once I removed it everything was back to normal again. GL

Yeah a reflash usually fixed it. There were a few things I did in the past that I sought to avoid this time around with the thought that they were related... only time will tell though
Hello guys !
I find out that many user facing a problem of NFC Icon not showing up in few firmware's like CE or the American one which the rom made by @serajr is made of.
Here is my small tutorial on how to made NFC Icon show up or disable it
What you will need:
Rooted phone
Sony Xperia L C2105/C2104
Buildprop Editor App
MOTOCHOPPER option to root on 2.17 firmware
Instructions:
1a: Turning on NFC ICON
- Download an app called Buildprop Editor
- Open the app and search for: "ro.nfc.icon.enable" NOTE: If you cannot find it go to the "1b"
- Change the value from "false" to "true"
- Save it and press "YES" on the option to reboot
- Wait till your phone boot's up and here you go ! Now you have a NFC Icon when a NFC is turn on.
1b: Turning on NFC ICON (When you don't have the line in Buildprop)
- Download an app called Buildprop Editor
- Open the app, click on the PLUS SIGN and at the Property Name type: "ro.nfc.icon.enable"
- At the Property Value write "true".
- Save it and press "YES" on the option to reboot
- Wait till your phone boot's up and here you go ! Now you have a NFC Icon when a NFC is turn on.
2: Turning off NFC ICON
- Download an app called Buildprop Editor
- Open the app and search for: "ro.nfc.icon.enable"
- Change the value from "true" to "false"
- Save it and press "YES" on the option to reboot
- Wait till your phone boot's up and here you go ! Now your NFC Icon is gone.
It's easy as it could be. I've tested it on my C2105. I think you don't need a screenshot's for this.
This line wasn't present in build.prop so I added it manually and it works now. Just do one thing in your instructions. TRUE should be in small letters and not capital. Make this change.
Thanx man
really appreciate it

No problem, thanks very much for it. It will help some people.
it's true that the line is not exist so I added manually and voila NFC ICON is back
thx for sharing
I added two steps of turning on NFC Icon. One is for the people that have a line in Buildprop and another one is for those who doesn't have a line and need to added.
The regular version 6 is for Team EOS 4.2 base.
****Version 6.1 (for KatKiss 4.3) fixes the following, lockscreen lock handle, battery color in quicksettings, removes battery text, fixed color of home back and recent apps buttons, fixes color of labels on quicksettings tiles, fixes icons for expanded desktop in power menu, fixed the brightness icon so it's bright blue and removed the sloppiness.
****Version 6.2 (for KatKiss 4.3) includes v6.1 and add's fixes for TABLET mode. (removed v6.1 because it's included in 6.2)
- icon colors fixed.
- text colors fixed
- battery text removed (not needed due to percentage circle indicator)
- only thing that needs to be tweaked now is the color of the on switches, if i can find it.
****Version 6.3 (for KatKiss 4.3) fixes 1% INCREMENTS AND BATTERY ANIMATION (I had forgot to rewrite the xmls for them) so they were only updating every 15% like the original UI, except with the new files. all is fixed now it's updating every percent.
- (version 6.2 removed as 6.3 is just the same thing with battery indicator fixed.)
Now verified working with TEOS build 120, katkiss 4.3 build 20. (the regular v6 is for Team EOS 4.2 roms)
the version for TEOS should be almost done in phablet mode, not sure about tablet mode make requests for me to fix anything i missed.
the version for katkiss 4.3 build 20 is now finished, and should work with other builds but make a backup just in case
It is safe to test on any rom using the following procedure.
- download the flashable zip
- make a copy of the flashable zip and name the copy ORIGINALUI.zip
- open ORIGINALUI.zip with 7-zip or winrar and replace /system/app/SystemUI.apk and /system/framework/framework-res.apk with the CURRENT files from your phone. This will allow you to boot back into recovery and reflash the original files if there is any problems.
It's also recommended you do a nandroid backup before flashing anything just as a safeguard.
Standard warnings (you are responsible for damage done to your phone)
Install instructions
- make a backup flashable zip with your original UI and make a nandroid backup (optional but recommended)
- boot into recovery and flash the zip
- reboot and enjoy
This mod has the following features.
- circle percentage battery indicator, with charging animation.
- standard text changed to #ff2686ff
- holo_blue changed to #ff2686ff
- lockscreen animations color's updated.
- most system icons updated (if i have missed something that you use it's because i don't use it, drop a message if i missed something you want changed and i'll add a new version.) (only applies to SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk)
- Changed color of most icons in the status bar except some notification icons that are controlled by other apks. (playstore etc) if you need something else changed from SystemUI or framework that i missed just drop a message here.
- over 300 icon changes and 15 modded xml's
- Recommended black or dark color for lockscreen background.
- so far only the swipe lockscreen is done but if you request another one I can try to do it when time permits.
- there is a tutorial on the process I used here
- if you want the specific aapt.exe and the apktool version that works with 4.2 EOS/Katkiss roms just shout at me, i'll post them for you. (alot of them don't work and you'll get compile errors without even changing anything)
The lockscreen clock i'm using is https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=sk.michalec.SimpleDigiClockWidget&hl=en
it's far easier to use this then mod the system clock, and ontop of that there is way more fonts and stuff you can use and change the sizes of the date/time etc, it's just way better than modding the built in one.
also using apex launcher i find it's best and most customization.
**************** In the 2 screenshots where the CLOCK IS WHITE it's because I DIDN"T INSTALL DIGICLOCK, it's the stock one and i was only testing the mod so i didnt bother installing digiclock and fix it, the screenshots are to show the fixed tablet mode.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWEEEEEEEEEEESOMEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

thanks for helping test
has anyone tried it on katkiss 4.2 yet?
if someone has a dock can you let me know if the dock battery indicator is working in 1% increments etc? I don't have a dock.

EDIT -- >> 4.3 version now uploaded, Phablet mode done in mod version 6.1, Tablet mode still a work in progress. edit tablet mode now done
if the original version built from TEAM EOS rom doesn't work on kat 4.2 can you try flashing the 4.3 version and see if that works? if not I guess i'll make a 3rd version.
I'm looking into fixing the menu highlighters transparency
