[MOD] AT&T LG G2 KitKat Smaller Navigation Bar and Disable CarrierIQ

Disclaimer: I typically modify to meet my own needs, on my own time, for my own device. This means that it might not be a mod meant for everyone, nor has it been thoroughly tested by anyone but myself. Use at your own risk.
Description: Modifies framework-res.apk in /system/framework to disable the loading of CarrierIQ on start-up as well as shrink the margins on the navigation bar for a little more screen real estate. This has only been tested and used on Stock AT&T LG G2 4.4 KitKat.
Link: https://db.tt/IoEgdIsr
Instructions: Back-up your current framework-res.apk in /system/framework then replace it with this one.
Notes:
CarrierIQ no longer shows 7 running processes via System Tuner on boot. To me, this indicates it is no longer being loaded. Otherwise, if you want, you can use System Tuner -> System -> Android System [Details] -> uncheck each of 7 CarrierIQ processes to do it manually.
This is a simple dimens.xml modification. Nothing major.

After replacing file with root explorer I went into a boot loop... Now I am afraid that I am going to have to completely restore my phone.
I know this is pretty straight forward but your file didn't work.

need to know if anyone was successful with this mod yet. do not want to go into a bootloop or force closes.

Also waiting for others to confirm this working first.
If only Xposed were working.

gonna flag this because it just crashes phones..... i just did it and i really dont think its funny.

Do not do it a full restore i needed after applying this so called mod>
---------- Post added at 12:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:07 AM ----------
i am actually kind of mad that this messed up my phone and took multiple tries to get into download mode. now i have to redo everything.

This work perfect for me, here how i did it
First backup my framework apk
second i copied the mod framework apk to system folder
then i set 644 permission for it
finally i move and replace it to framework folder
restart rightaway and it work
thanks OP for the mod file
btw maybe you should shrink the navbar a little less, it way too thin in my opion

This works great. Use root explorer and set permissions. Don't forget to make a nandroid backup if you can.
Download the apk from OP, then:
1. I copied over the framework after renaming it. (I just added a 2 at the end)
2. Then I set permissions (I just checked all the boxes... why not). At this point it would be a good idea to backup your original framework apk in case you want to restore.
3. Then I named it properly and over wrote the original (removed the 2)
4. I rebooted.
I somewhat disagree with the post above, I wouldn't mind it being a little smaller.
I am running this on the D800 running the androiduser's power user D802 base ROM.
@burningembers can you make one that will get rid of the volume and brightness sliders? Thanks!

the Navbar is fine in portrait but if you put the phone in landscape and you'll see the icon on it doesnt fix, it still ok but look amateur

Thanks heatshiver the nav bar smaller is nice. I'm still detecting Carrier IQ though .. Doing it manually with android tuner I would disable all of the items under android system? Thanks again bud
Edit: you probably already have this info but just in case or anyone else wanting to take a crack at totally disabling it (if possible)

thanks for this mod. I'll try this tonight after I flash the rom. I wouldn't mind a smaller nav bar too if you ever think of making another one.

This is a great mod, but remember that you cannot FULLY remove Carrier IQ from the ATT ROM. You can disable the services and prevent them from running which is what this does, and maybe it stops it all and maybe it doesnt IDK. But there is carrier IQ embedded into the UI code, the keyboard code, the messaging app code, etc. The only way to truly not have any Carrier IQ on your phone is to not run an ATT base ROM.

Thats weird cause i moved the framework mod into system/framework and set the permissions to rw--r--r and my screen started force closing and when i rebooted it stayed on the lg logo. Will try again later tonight

If you use adb you could push then reboot or if you're on a rom that has recovery you could create a zip.

Do you need to be rooted for this?

It worked perfectly for me when I did it the way above. I also went back to the original framework using this method. I'm not sure what you are doing wrong but at this point just use xposed (the Chinese leak found in the general section) and the G2 xposed module. That's what I am doing and I have a small nav bar.
Don't be mad at us, we were just reporting something we did that worked. If a few of us got it working and you did the problem is somewhere on your end not ours. So don't blame us, we gain nothing from lying. It may just be the ROM you are using
EDIT: it appears they closed that Chinese xposed thread for some reason. You may want to check out why but here is the link to the apk http://pan.baidu.com/s/1mgFNFc8 I haven't had any issues but it may cause issues with the lg launcher. Use this at you own risk... Good luck

Small apps are those apps which you see when you press the options button on home screen like small calculator or sound recorder etc.

This is working great, but really needs a progressbar. I have a proposition: make the app remember
my search requests, add a tab or a link for downloaded apks. Waiting for version 2

[MOD] Google Keyboard with updated iOS 9.1 Emojis

Please make a backup of the apk and /system/fonts/NotoColorEmoji.ttf before following the instructions.
Note: Not all of the emojis present in iOS 9.1 are currently supported.
Instructions:
1. Download the ttf file and install manually or download the flashable zip (Be sure to rename AppleEmoji9.1-caiosilva96.tff to NotoColorEmoji.tff)
2. Install the modded Google Keyboard.
3. Enjoy!
Files:
- Modded TTF or Flashable ZIP
- Modded Google Keyboard , armv64 download here
Thanks to @DespairFactor, @neonixxx, @caiosilva96 and @tccool987
Q/A
Q: Why are some emojis black & white?
A: Here's the solution and if you're on Lollipop you can download this flashable zip.
Q: My Google Keyboard is a system app and I can't install the mod.
A: Uninstall the app (with an app such as Titanium Backup) and install the mod
Q: Gesture typing and/or autocorrect is broken after installing the mod.
A: I'm still working on a fix for this, but for now switching the keyboard language to English (UK) will fix the problem.
Q: Whenever I delete some emojis, a different one appears, so I have to press backspace twice to delete.
A: This is because the emoji requires two unicode values. Sometimes when backspace is pressed, one of the unicode value is deleted, not both. I'm not sure why this happens, hopefully someone will come along and help solve the mystery...
Changelog
29/10/2015
- Added secondary keys, flags and numerical symbols (1, 2, 3 etc.)

I did everything OP said.
BUT before flashing this, delete any mod you installed for emojis, and restore your original ones, reboot, then proceed to flashing.
Now do a backup for your Google keyboard (just in case) and install the one provided by OP.
Good luck

I do have busybox, though I never knew the purpose of it. I just install it and don't bother it. But I can't seem to have the iOS 9.1 (but other emoji can, for example Samsung, Google)

I had the same thing but that was because busybox was not installed correctly .... Did you went in the app busybox and then install ?

Developer is working on a fix https://www.reddit.com/r/Android/co...i_are_now_available_in_emoji_switcher/cwasg0l
Edit: Found a possible fix, you probably don't have enough space in your /system/ partition.
Best is to convert some Google system apps to user apps with titanium backup to free up some space

Use Titanium Backup.

Samsung Apps from S8 and Note8 - verified working on Note5 and S7edge - NO ROOT

Hi,
As you know, most APK's from S8 and Note8 cannot be installed like normal APK's on S7 and Note5. Samsung changed the signature of many packages so you'll get an error message "App not installed. The package conflicts with an existing package by the same name" if you try to install them as APK's.
Of course, for rooted users, they can simple flash them via recovery and adjust the permissions, but for all other non-rooted users, I've tested these APK's (many of them not available via Google Play update) and they all can be simply installed after download.
I hope you'll find them useful. I've uploaded them to my Dropbox at:
MOD EDIT LINK REMOVED
Best of luck!
