Need help after installing custom ROM

So, the ROM works fine and everything is dandy, but the main issue that irks me is that I have to press "ok" every time after disabling data:
http://gyazo.com/24c68b47ea03f668397c798bac1df55f
Is there a way I can change that the message does not show up or do I need to go into ADB? I'm not sure how ADB works either.
TestKnow has also released a universal ADB driver. Not sure how well that works or if anyone has pointers because I had a tough time installing ADB in the first place.
Another issue is the messenger app. There's a different version of the stock messenger app that I want to install because in this version I can send messages without typing anything:
http://gyazo.com/f38f7d74870c98b40d1e39ab66d24e19
I tried to push another app before but it just permanently crashed the app and I had to reflash. Is there another way? ADB again?
Thanks.

Sadly this is present in both stock 5.0.2 and 5.1.1.

The disabling data thing? I mean, I can live with this and the other issue, but I would be happier if I could fix them. I know phones aren't perfect so I'm just trying to be realistic here. I haven't downloaded any apps yet to see if I can remedy these two things first. Thanks for replying.

If you're rooted you can use mobile toggle data from xda.
Google it.
With that you can either make a widget or Tasker profile.

I meant from the pulldown menu like in this picture: http://gyazo.com/24c68b47ea03f668397c798bac1df55f
It's not a dealbreaker for me but it would be nicer.
Would you know how to push an apk into the system drawer? I wanted to add a different version of the messenger and maybe keyboard app.

Sadly no, but will be happy to hear it, if you find a way!

You can use ROM toolbox pro to convert a user app to a system app.
Or if you already have a system app apk file then just paste or move it /System/app or priv app and set permissions using a file explorer then reboot phone.

Video of Proof!!!: Add Google login in account settings!!!!!!

Original: Got the phone perfect. I mean perfect. Now I just want the add Google account in the settings section of the phone. What files in the root control that. It should not be this hard to get that in there. I gave it the best shot I could. I am giving it to the forum to try to come up with a solution. The stuff done here, this should not be a problem.
Edited: 1/25/2016
Here is the video of the results of the mod.
Steps
Use the included recovery flasher to change back and forth between recoveries.
1.Worked best for me with a fresh install. I used B112 - Rooted device after installation
2. Install playstore and google play music Gapps from the HiApp store that’s on the phone.
3. Login to google play and update google play services when google music ask you to.
4. After that use a system app uninstaller(download below) and use it to move google play as a system app. After that:
Uninstall:
• Baidu
• Hicare
• Huawei IME
• Huawei Swype
• iReader
• Netease News
• Sohu TV
• Vmall
• The Microphone with the Chinese writing “hahaha”
• Driving Mode
• Game center
• Hivoice
• Huawei Wallet
• HuaewiPay
• Skytone
• Exchange Services – if you don’t want to use it
• Browser
• Email – if you don’t use it
Reboot phone.
5. Install es explorer and enable root permissions, delete the CUST folder. And copy and replace the build.prop file in the system directory with the one that is included. Change permissions to rw-r-r- using es explorer.
6. Copy “Google Accounts Cust Folder.zip” to phone or flash card
7. Reboot into twrp and install the zip file
8. Reboot phone and launch the recovery installer (must be in developer mode and enable usb debugging for the recovery app to automatically reboot your phone in to fastboot) Install the original recovery back.
Reboot.
9. Goto backup and reset and do a Factory data reset but don't delete files.
10. When you log back in you will have a google account in your setting page.
Mediapad X2 Twrp/Stock Flasher - English.zip Unpack and run
App Backup and Restore.apk - Installation program
Google Accounts Cust Folder Flashable Zip - Flash in twrp
Modified build.prop - Copy to system folder on phone
Update-SuperSU-v2.46.zip - Copy this to phone
recovery.img - Official B112 Recovery
Send me a message if you have any problems.

It won't happen on a 703L. The framework just isn't there. On my 702L I was able to add it from Accounts out of the box. You can still add more accounts, you just have to go to Backup and Reset in Settings and hit Backup Account then hit Add Account. Sorry bro, Huawei makes EVERYTHING difficult.

I have to insert google account through Gmail app or Play store. And to add contact sync for that account, I install "Google Contact sync" from Hiapp. Can not directly add GG account from setting but still perfect with work-around

I got the google account icon in the add google account in the account settings. I had to edit the hw_defaults.xml file in the cust folder. There is a entry in there for google at the bottom that is set for =0. I changed it to =1 and then I installed the original recovery and went back into the phone and deleted my account from the restore and backup section. When I restarted the phone It was in the list. Make sure that all the playstore gapps and services are in the priv-app folder so that they will not get deleted on the restore. Now I am good to go. I'll put pics up in a minute. You can add it to your rom if you have not already done so.

After changing that value to 1 (I did it in each cust folder just to be sure) when I hit add account Google still doesn't show up. Maybe it has to be added before we flash as I'm sure that value probably modifies some other value in another file somewhere.

Thanks, I'll have a look at it and tonight. I checked it out, put the file in each cust folder and even in data/cust, set permissions, language and region already match in the build and local.prop. I still don't have the option to add any google stuff through accounts.

You have to reset the install the original recover and go into settings and delete the profile through that. Worked perfect on my end. I might give it a try on the simply Google. I sold all my backup phones so I can't risk being down for more than 4hrs doing a restore.

I don't really care about the fact it will be the fastest chip. My X2 is faster than my Note 4 (gave the wife the Nexus 6 because she got fed up with her Note 4 so now I have the note 4 as an extra phone) and the Kirin 930 is supposedly much slower than the Snapdragon 808. I used to buy into all the spec war crap but now I've wised up a bit in my old age I guess. Unlocking Qualcomm bands doesn't always work and a lot of time some are missing anyway.

[7.0-7.1] How to achieve Pixel Features and Look on any Rooted Android Device

Hi! Guys Today I will share a guide on How to achieve Pixel features and look on almost any android device running android Nougat.
What you need?:- A rooted Nougat device, Root file manager(I recommened ES), Brain
Lets start:-
Go into root of your device using your fav. file manager and search for build.prop. Usually it lies in system folder but if not found search it. Open it with any text editor and add this two lines at it's end.
ro.product.model=Pixel XL
ro.opa.eligible_device=true
Now reboot your device.
After your device turns on Clear Google App data.(Clear whole data and not cache only).
Now long press on your device to launch Google assistant:laugh::laugh: .
Now another step.
Open playstore and install pixel launcher and wallpapers by google.
Now you need Link2SD.(Install if not already Installed)
Now open Link2SD find & convert Pixel launcher and wallpapers into system apps and reboot again. (This step enables Google Now on swipe).
Now Download the boot animation app by Jrummy from playstore and install the boot animation zip i provided or manually push it into your system where your boot animation is stored.(Normally it's stored in system>media)
Copy audio files and replace it with your default files in system>media>audio.
Now if you want more follow:- (Not recommened for CM users but i hadn't encountered any problem on my CM though )
Download substratum from Playstore and Pixel Ui which is similar theme for this app and apply it via the substratum. Reboot
Cm users can skip many steps and use any pixel theme and icon pack from Playstore and apply it via Themes app natively installed.:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
It's Done. Now enjoy all features and look of Pixel on your device.
While i encountered that google assistant doesn't recognize your voice I can't do anything for it now. I will keep looking to make it work but it will take time.Sorry.
You can also just download the launcher and wallpaper and install it. It still works that way. Also you can manually push them into system if required. But i suggest you to use bootanimation via substratum only as i pulled the zip file from PixelUi.
Here is a thread on Pixel experince you may want to take a look here too if you want to avoid so much work and go for flashing zips:-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/and...xel-experience-launcher-dialer-t3478907/page1
Tips:- Signup for google beta tester on playstore and update your google app to latest beta version for seamless google assistant work.
You may add those two build.prop at the end and don't change your default model number. It will still work.
Boot animation have a huge chances to work normally as the just conatin minimal animations and cover center of screen. So try it out and tell me.
This is my first guide. Please PM me or quote if you have any doubts before rating my guide bad.
Thank me if you liked my guide and my assistance.:laugh:

Are you on Pure Nexus, by chance? I know you're not stock since you mentioned 7.1.2. If you're using that ROM, in the download section underneath the ROM and gapps, there's a camera fix zip and you need to flash that as well. @GizmoTheGreen

[GUIDE] Debloat stock apps without root ( Xiaomi ADB/Fastboot Tools)

1. Download and launch latest Xiaomi ADB/Fastboot Tools from there
2.Enable USB debugging and connect your device to your pc.
Notes.
*You can uninstall or disable stock apps (later you can re-install them or re-enable them if you need them back)
*Be carefull and do some research before uninstall something.. worst case your device may end in bootloop
*Latest Xiaomi ADB/Fastboot need java 11 or later to work.

hi,
i dont know where to post but I have a problem with my Xiaomi Mi Note 10 lite.
A few months ago I deactivated a few apps. Later I wanted to reenable them and except for 3 apps all apps were activated. Now I have still 3 Apps deactivated and if I want to reactivate them via Fastboot Tools it says [ADB Error]. I attached a screenshot.
Does anybody else has this problem or knows a solution?
