Request: Flashable Zip Template (Theme) - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5

I need a flashable zip template with the correct updater script and binary for lollipop 5.1.1 that works on the note 5 so I can make my own flashable theme, thanks

This would be awesome! I'm waiting to root basically for this opportunity for custom themes and non-stock roms to get viper sound mod.

If your referring to V4A instead of a different addon by the Viper Rom community then just d/l either of the OGD Deodexed Roms we have and V4A works perfect and if you have a car with a system hold onto your windows, it sounds pretty sweet! Like wake the neighborhood with a factory Ford Shaker 1000 system have my phone hooked up with a aux cable running V4A with the Super Driver and Advanced Controls tuned. It will get you in trouble if you go by a cop and the town has noise ordinance.

Here you go, an empty zip ready for you to add your edited apk's. Just edit the updater-script to whatever you want it to say. Tested so far with apps, priv-apps and framework. Enjoy
Note: if you have already converted the apk's images to png's, please share as it will save all of us a lot of time.

Has been a few years. I quit making roms and themes about two years ago. Well roms first, then the themes. When Samsung came out with the QMG images, that was it. I had enough of jumping thru loops to make a theme for the Note 4. Love the phone, hated the OS for the phone.
So bud, are you do any theming for the Note 5. Maybe you can give me a hand. I am a little confused on what can and can not be done. The reason I was able to do a basic theme was the framework-res and systemui was already converted. I read the previous app used to convert the images to png's doesn't work for this phone. So let me know if you know how to convert the qmg's to png's, or anyone here that can help.

Yeah ... I haven't been too involved myself. Some a few tweaks on the S4. I have been planning to develop some custom boot images (my specialty ... haha). Really just looking at cleaning things up first. I know rlmiller and tdunham are both pretty involved with this device. They might be able to provide some insight.
Anyway ... good to see a familiar face.

No problem I tried yesterday on the settings apk and had no problem with any png's. So the conversion still works for the Note 5. That's what I get for reading one post and taking that as fact. I use VTS for decompiling and reconpiling and had no problems with the framework-res, systemui and the systems apk's. But when I try to recompile a couple of other's. Like the Samsung keyboard even without changes they give a Java error. I have updated both apktooland smali files to the latest. But that didn't help, still get the same error. I applied for Samsung Theme it twice and was declined both times. Something about I didn't provide enough information about the themes I have already done. Not sure what they are looking for. I provided linked images to some 20 themes and roms I have done.... Maybe that's it, they don't people who know how to hack their phone.

In the search field, type picconv. Should be the 1st link. Beware V2.1 converts the 9.qmg to regular .PNG images. If u want to edit .9. images u will need to add the black lines. Hopefully the developer will get this fixed soon.
As far as Samsung goes, I think if u provide proof of themes u have make. And the link is a post on XDA u are blacklisted. Samsung straight out told me in a phone conversation that they do not want us rooting our phones. Yeah, they want to control the themes available and make money doing it.

One Click Rom/Theme Optimizer and Signer

This tool will open any AOSP based rom or theme (as long as the file structure is correct) and optimize and zip align everything.
Simply grab your rom or theme and place it in this folder (should work from anywhere but you need to full path from where the cmd file is run). Now click on the reopto_runner.cmd and it will ask you where the rom is (name) that you want to optomize, type the name of the rom and hit enter, it will do the rest.
Final output of the re-optimized (double pass with 2 different png optimizers) rom will be named rom-optoed-signed-finished.zip this will be exactly the same rom except the script will optomize every png in every apk found in the system/app and system/framework-res.apk. It will also zipalign all these same apks and finally will sign the zip file. When its done just rename the rom-optoed-signed-finished.zip to what ever you want and its ready to flash.
What this won't do is make your zip file (rom, theme, update zip) flashable unless its already set up to be flashable... meaning you'll still need your update-script in the com.google.android folder to be there. Its does sign your zip file for you though.
I put this out there as its some of the scripting and tools I have made to help me in theming and rom hacking.
Feel free to use any part of this to help you in any scripting you do.
Sweet, you are the man. Going to try it out now.
I'm going to try this on the MIUI ROM!

I have only tried this method on AOSP based roms the script should work on any rom or theme or update zip that follow this structure in the top level. system/app/*apk and system/framework/framework-res.apk, which is pretty much all of them.
The script takes about 10 minutes or so to run on cm6 rom and is really quick on most of the themes here. So for instance you could use it to make sure or re optimize a theme or roms.
feel free to tire it apart and use it in other fashions. I can guarantee it will shave some about of space of any rom or theme along with the zip aligning of every apk. If its a short request I'll post some more automated tiny scripts to todo various stuff.
Little confused. I run any aosp rom through this and it makes it compatable with the hero? ( sorry for the newb question)

Thank you for the praise, wife been complaining about doing stuff for free so I might have to post my pay pal account with a wife complaining button.
I might just release a script that does it for you. mdpi to mdpi (or hdpi to hdpi) no matter what rom is fairly easy todo. Of course it can only theme what it can match but it will do it for you.
For a more in depth description would take some time so I'll probably have to do it some time later.

maybe but he should have done the png opto and zipaligning already. I do add another png opto that most people dont do which will squeeze out another couple of kb, was able to shrink cm6 by 16 or so kb, which doesnt seem like alot but every bit counts.
You could use it to just see, like whenever you d/l a new rom run this on it and compare the file size, or load the rom and run a linpack and then opto it and then reload it and then do a linpack and see what you get. Some themers don't zipalign there themes and don't opto there pngs, and I have yet to see anyone use optipng and the other png opto program i use as a double pass system of optimizing pngs.
I like to use it for my themes or roms as it automates the hole process. Try it out if you use it on a rom it will give you a new optoed copy that is already sign and ready to flash... one click

Sounds good . Of course, when you say "every rom" you only mean AOSP roms, right? I'd suppose it wouldn't be able to rip, for instance, Nfinite's latest rooted Stock ROM apart and png optimize/zipalign it? If it could, holy crap. On top of the fact I use Odex, that would be amazing.

should work on that to since it only looks at pngs and apk. it will onyl zip align the framework-res.apk and the system/app apk's. Actually try it out I never have but it should work.
remember to nand before you flash it but you should be a ok, as I can't see any reason why it would work.

Hmm. But will I see a difference? Doesn't HTC have their own specific framework-res apk? I'd love to get into ROM themeing, so I've been poking around the ROMs for some time now.

Stock Sidekick 4G "ThemeChooser" Themes

At the bottom of this post you will find a download link to a zip containing all the themes that the sidekick came with.
Some people may be on a custom ROM like Smooth Maximus and dont have the themes, or just removed them and want them back.
This is just so no one has to go through the trouble of downloading a stock ROM the searching through all the system apps to find the themes themselves . So i've decided to package em together for ya.
This is not flashable so you have to unzip them and use a root file manager (root explorer, super manager ect.) and push them to System/app. You Need to be rooted or it wont push the apps.

As for customizing im not sure but i think you can use apk tools to decompile edit and recompile the apk just make sure you have the sidekicks framework installed into apk tools also you may need to sign it im not sure i havent tried it yet

[Q] Will Themes from the International One X work for us?

Shouldn't the themes for the International One X work for us as well? Especially since there's a new way of theming that just replaces the graphical stuff and not the actual apk. They say it should work on most devices with same sense versions. We have the same sense version, same resolution same buttons etc. I've tried a few but the developers have a model check and they abort. The one that i found over there that did not do a model check worked fine. Could someone with experience with themes chime in please? thanks!
EDIT. I'm only talking about themes With the villain theming system. It does not replace the apks, only mods them.

VillainTheme System 0.4.0
As a user, you don't need to know much - just flash this zip like a regular zip, and you'll get your theme running. But you should be able to apply themes to any device, ROM, and version of the ROM, without it causing adverse effects. That means less time spent by themers making the original theme, and less time spent modifying it constantly for new versions of ROMs.
Features..
Will modify APKs in a ROM, without changing signatures, and can be used on any ROM where the filenames of themed files is the same.
Should not need updated between versions of a ROM
Zipaligns all APKs before installation
Stores a backup of all files being modified in /cache/vrtheme-backup/
Requires no coding abilities or editing of files - just drag and drop
Can copy "raw" files, though at risk of not working on other devices

What "new theming method" are you talking about?
The only type of themeing I've seen is replacing system files, like SystemUI.apk and stuff.
It that's the case, then no it won't work.

I installed this theme without issues. Was made using villain theme system for the International one X
Quote from changelog of this theme
UPDATE 21 May: After a lot of tweaking and tinkering, have managed to make the theme work with the VillainTheme system. This means that it should now work with any ROM, and shouldn't affect any of the ROM dev's individual tweaks.
The theme modifies the following system apks:
framework-res.apk
SystemUI.apk
com.htc.resources.apk
fusion.apk

For me a lot of the themes to a model check and since we dont have endeavor it aborts.

Sense 4 is sense 4 as far as I know. I'm sure you can remove the model check form the update script. link one you'd like to install and I'll check it out
That's definitely not a good idea. Most Sense themes contain the SystemUI.apk, framework-res.apk and com.htc.resources.apk. So if the rom your using on your AT&T One X has any mods done to any of those apk's you will loose them and if the rom that the theme was built for has any mods done to those apk's you will more than likely have issues. If there is a specific theme you like, get me the link and I will try to port it over.

That's definitely not a good idea. Most Sense themes contain the SystemUI.apk, framework-res.apk and com.htc.resources.apk.

No you're right, not a noob. Tiff didn't realize I was talking about the villain theming system.. This system only replaces graphics, not the entire apk. Unfortunately she said she wasn't familiar ( hasn't used it) so that reply is a little misleading. I'll get you that theme I was talking about to try and change the model.

only way to know is to try.

I just tried the bubble battery mod it didn't work

Remember I'm just talking about themes done with villain only. All others will replace system ui etc. We don't want that...just the new school

See if you can change this to evita. Or remove the model check all together. I'll test it

Ok I've found the model check lines in the aroma installer but I have no idea how to disable them.
It LOOKS like if you unzip the theme you can push the vrtheme folder to your sd card on your phone and then run the installtheme.sh from adb shell.
EDIT:
BZZZZZT thanks for playing try again.

Wouldn't it be a little hard to install a theme while the rom is running? Just thinking it would be A mess changing graphics while active. Unless I misunderstood yooz.
Maybe I could swap the vrtheme folder in the theme that does work, doesn't check the model. That cream theme I posted earlier..mwhat a horrible name lol

if you look at updater-script you can change endeavor0 to evita.
Then it will pass the check. but I'm scared to try it myself
but swapping the files in that cream theme might make more sense
I just tried swapping out the vrtheme folder and it dien't work it failed to install in recovery

3Minit Battery Mod (Specific to N910P)

Here we have the 3Minit Battery Mod for our lovely Sprint Note 4 N910P!
What makes it different than the one in the general Samsung Note 4 Thread here you ask?
Well I for one get annoyed by that "Roaming Indicator" Messeage in the Status Bar. So I got rid of it! It now displays sprint
Credits and thanks @gharrington and all battery design themes. Original topic
NOTE to Sprint Rom Devs: Feel free to use this! Just be sure to mention me AND make sure to give proper credit to gharrington for the original mod!
Just Flash this zip in recovery, and you are good to go!

Please Post your Results if it worked for you!

Sweet, haven't flashed anything in the last few days.
Worked on smoothkat
If your rom is theme, will this brake the theme

Only on SystemUI.apk. no other themed items will break.
For lollipop or kk? Seems old so gotta ask.
Only the offline ones are available on my phone. How do I download the others?

Awesome! I was wondering, if you have the time and ambition, would you be willing to make this for the Hybrid X ver 2.2 ROM?
No matter how hard I try, I cannot get the danm thing to decompile the smali files (I'm only left with the XML files for some reason or another).
Even if you don't have time or don't want to, thanks!

Hello fellow Note 5 users
Welcome to NoTe 5 "LiViNg oN tHe EdgE"
I have put together a simple stock-deodexed-debloated Rom.zip i put together myself
It is based off N920T C015 base. Thanks to @TEKHD for the use of his stock deodexed base!
I am not a Developer, im just a flash junky who finally made his own stockish rom with the additional features i liked and wanted to share it!
This is my 1st Rom I've ever posted on XDA, so be nice LOL and any help will be much appreciated:thumbup::
You are more than welcome to use any part of this Rom, just give credit to myself and anyone else mentioned please
This Rom will most likely not be updated, but with help from others with mods and other cool stuff we can add on the way, i will be more than happy to add if possible! No promises LOL
I AM IN NO WAY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS TO YOUR PHONE! SO FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK! AND ALWAYS MAKE A BACK UP!

Thank you sir! I just wanted to make a stockish rom for our device with of course edge features and a few extras! And let the user mod it out the way they want to!
Well once I manage to get recompiling working and figured out I'll be glad to mod this to my liking but I'm still learning and can't seem to figure out why I can't recompile :/

Can I ask how you got floating messages to work? I've been trying to a while now. I found the correct updated airmessage and proxy apk's from s6 stuff and I know the csc entries but haven't found the correct secmms apk that won't crash. I'm downloading your rom now and am going to tinker with it some but wanted to see if you knew what needed to be edited in the mms apk after decompile or if not at all. Just trying to learn some more myself and thanks for putting this together I always need a solid base to fall back on.

What are you using to decompile/recompile? I use BDFreak's_2.0.2 APK Tool. He's got all the stuff you need inside and its a gui instead of the ol command line int. I did a lot of cool stuff on my note 3 with systemUI animations but haven't done anything yet on 5.1.1. Gonna try some stuff this weekend though.

I used tickle my android had a nice gui and everything else as well problem is in most steps I've ready I'm not sure if I need to install res-framework or the systemUI to my computer so I could actually recompile at the end! I Even tested recompiling something I had not edited period just decompiled so I could recompile and still no go maybe if I try that tool it may work? Not sure I'll give it a go in a few though and see what happens! If that fails then I guess it's time to make a thread and ask the pros ? since my Dumbass can't seem to get it lol

Yea man, the tool I use goes install frameworks, res and TouchWiz, then install systemui, then decompile, edit, them recompile. Also remember to move the original meta inf and android manifest to the new one before recompile.
I'll try some settings and system ui tweaks for this rom this weekend and share anything worth sharing.
