This is the noob-proof multiuser enabler guide for the CM10.1 - GS3 only!!
Want to enable multiuser on your galaxy S3 under CM10.1?? This is the easiest way to do it.
Updates - based on cm-10.1-2013XXXX-NIGHTLY-i9300.zip:
Multi_20130306
Multi_20130303
Multi_20130302
Multi_20130222
This is very simple: just flash the zip file and you're done!! just need to create the users under settings!! Can create up to 8 users!!
P.S. You need to reflash it for every new nightly installed!!!!
IMPORTANT INFORMATION!!!
I just found out a way to reduce FC in secondary user. Create 2 other users... delete the second, reboot and the third user should now be the second but without the FCs... well it should, it worked for me...

. JDK and JRE for windows 32bits - (are you under windows x64? Install the 32bits javas anyway)
. FrameworkFlasher Adapted from the wesf90 Original Thread and Updated from iBotPeaches Original Thread to run on CM10.1
1) Install JDK and JRE and Unzip FrameworkFlasher
2) copy your phone's framework-res.apk to the folder "place-framework-res-here"
3) run "RunMe.bat"
4) press 1 to decompile
5) Make the necessary changes under the folder "files-to-edit" ****
6) run 2 to recompile
7) run 3 and 4 to sign and zip the apk
8) Just flash your new zip and be happy!
**** In order to enable multiuser, it's necessery to change some xml file inside framework-res.apk and this is only possible by doing this decompile/compile process...
The files you need to change are:
. framework-res.apk\res\values\integers.xml
look for config_multiuserMaximumUsers and change the number of users (min 2)
Code:
<integer name="config_multiuserMaximumUsers">8</integer>
. framework-res.apk\res\layout-port\keyguard_host_view.xml
need to add this after the second </FrameLayout>
Code:
<FrameLayout androidprv:paddingTop="7.0dip" androidprv:layout_width="fill_parent" androidprv:layout_height="wrap_content">
<include androidprv:layout_gravity="top|center" androidprv:layout_width="fill_parent" androidprv:layout_height="fill_parent" layout="@layout/keyguard_multi_user_selector" />
</FrameLayout>
I made more changes than this so I advice to use mine own keyguard_host_view.xml
Thanks for the great work.... it worked perfectly. However, I have a feedback:
Few findings
- Unable to find option "Enable USB Debugging
- Unable to add facebook contact sync for secondary user
- Facebook sync not working
santoshtalluri
Unfortunetly multiuser feature still very limited and buggy... not my fault, it's Android/Cm10.1 fault... you also cant make/receive calls and themes cause fc in a secundary user...

help with decompile
I get the following failure when trying to decomile my apk. I am on the Sprint GS3 and d2spr CM10.1 2013-01-31 nightly. Any help would be appreciated. Also, I am making the leap that the same technique here works for any SG3 framework-res.apk and not just for the i9300. If that is an invalide assumption, then please set me straight. Thanks in advance...

Yes... probably works for your phone too....
The compile/decompile process can cause several erros when one or more conditions are not satisfied, so make sure:
1. Latest Java JDK/JRE 32 bits are installed
2. FrameworkFlasher is updated (the one I posted is updated, so use mine)
3. The folder name where FrameworkFlasher is running should not have spaces
4. framework-res.apk is not corrupted (I use WIFI file explorer to download framework-res.apk to my PC)
5. Wrong changes in framework-res files also ruins the process

My S3 (CM10.1 updated, stock kernel) is having FC with everything with a new user. The "Setup Wizard" can't start.

some native apps crash a lot but apps from play should work as I installed several games and facebook at my secondary user... so try removing second user and create it again...

but i can't use anything with the new user: i can't configure it and i can't do anything 'cause the FC window appear for Wizard Setup, Contacts, Apollo, and it never stops. The only thing I can do is tap ok for FCs (no one app starts, neither launcher) and go to lockscreen to switch to original user.
Maybe the latest nightly release is not compatible with the old mod... so I have updated it to match 20130206... remove your secondary user under settings and reflash the new mod... create the new user and then you tell me if it works

tried wiping cache, fixing permissions, reflashing ROM AND MOD, deleting and recreating the user, but nothing works. the same FC problem. even the new 07/02's ROM and MOD.
it can be the gapps? the new user can't open the Wizard Setup (and I think it's part of gapps). I really want the multi user on my S3, so thanks for your work on it.
SOLVED! The problem is with the system theme. With the default theme, it worked!.
We can't apply themes to the system with multi user
Yes... themes cause FCs on secondary users... great to know it worked for you

Yaaaay its out Tung91 .
Just did some initial testing, followed instructions to the 'tee' with installing everything but running into issues when Importing a .MTZ (in this case was just testing with MIcons Project v2 - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1701281).
Below is the error I'm getting:
As you can see all dependencies (SDK/JDK and Ant are there). Hope you can fix !

There's no bin folder there after running "Build APK".
Even though your tool says "APK build complete". -
I tried the MIcons and Crimp packages. They got their folder created under the Imported Package folder.
Spot anything wrong with my setup here?

Problem with path in propertiesfile
You see, project's root build.xml is looking for C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk/tools/ant/build.xml
Two issues with this. My Android sdk is not installed in that path. I had provided correct path in environment setup. But this tool took this path somehow. I manually edited this sdk.dir path in the properties file.
And ant 1.8.0 is minimum requirement [which is not mentioned anywhere] while I had 1.7.0. After installing 1.8.0, it ran fine.

hmm, i think i already add some code to find and fix sdk dir error in local.properties inside template folder in first run ( you will see "Your template has problem " in sys tray notification ) tested on xp sp3 on vmware and it work ok and thank you for ant 1.8.0 part, because i just download and test 1.8.4 only is it working now
Yea, it is working now. But there are some issues in the apk created.
For some reason, the installed app is not replacing all available icons. i.e. the Project\project-name\res\drawable-hdpi folder has that icon, but when the apk is built, that icon doesn't replace the default icon in app drawer.
Nova launcher provides option of individual icon selection from an icon pack. Long press any app, select change icon, select icon-pack; all icons in that icon pack is displayed. But this last step doesn't work for icon-packs created with this tool.
Since this is just first version of this tool, I guess this is just bug report / feature request. A great tool nonetheless. :highfive:

1.ah ok , icons doesn't show maybe it's caused by activity name ( eg 2.3 Gallery and 4.0 Gallery ) that it need to update database , it's reason why we have "Start Activity Watch" button to add custom activity from user's phone :silly:
2.About selection from icon pack, i forgot to add drawable item in project :angel: It's used in GO Launcher too, i will add it to night when i'm back home :highfive:
it works very well except it did not import a bunch of icons from mtz.

About
As some of you know, several few days ago, i have put an efforts to port Miuiv4 to our device. I'm not a developer, just doing some simple mods but i'm dying to see miuiv4 to run in our device and to see how other device that have similiar hardwares with our legend have motivate me. Now, i have fixed most of the issue and given permissions to share it with you all.
I have put the links to ROM that i take as base so please go there and hit thanks to the respective devs to show our appreciation to their hardwork.
I appreaciate any suggestions but requests are not welcome at all.. I do it for you for free..

B. If you get an annoying popup every time you reboot that saying "export internal data to sd card" as per screenshot below,
this will happen when you try to open Themes while your sdcard still not fully mounted.
To fix it,
1. open root explorer
2. go to /data/sdcard/

4. delete it.
you also can do it via recovery
1. adb shell

3. rm -r MIUI
now that annoying pop up wont appear again
Change dpi

If camera hang/freezed, go to Settings -> apps -> all, clear data for camera. 1st time launch will take a while. Be patient.
Attached are the Miui Camera. Install as normal app. Load faster but panoramic mode is not working. Upon launching it, turn it off (panoramic mode) from setting.

feed3 Hello
How to change CPU speed ?
[SIZE=+1]I suggest reading the entire OP thoroughly from start to finish. I've put a lot of effort and time in to producing this utility and this OP in an attempt to make using OOne ROM Editor as simple as possible and to achieve the best results with OOne ROM Editor.[/SIZE]
Introduction
Because the system partition on these particular devices is only 190 MB, this tool was written to assist with removing unwanted applications, ringtones, and fonts from ICS and JB roms so as to shrink the overall size of the system partition prior to flashing.
A typical installation of any Android 4.0 and newer ROM will only leave a few KB of space remaining on the system partition. This is the reason why the ROMs need to be trimmed.
This tool will only edit ICS and JB ROMs for LG Optimus One family devices. Please refer to the help documentation for complete details and supported devices.
Updated 01/08/2013
New GUI but it is pretty self-explanatory. Various build actions can be accessed by right clicking in the list-view.Features
Remove system apps or even convert them to user apps
LatinIME Keyboard Editor - Create a mini LatinIME.apk from the language dictionaries you choose. JB ROMs only.
User Apps Manager - Manage system apps converted to user apps as well as including apps from your local file system ( hard drive )
Recycle Bin - Restore files accidentally removed from the current build
Remove 'assert' statement from the updater-script. This is for those who are using a recovery that will only allow flashing P500 ROMs. Like CWM 5.0.2.7 Touch
Installation
Just download and unzip to a folder of your choosing and run OOneROMEditor.exe. This tool has no external dependencies.Some things to keep in mind while using OOne ROM Editor
You cannot add system apps to the build ROM. Sorry, that defeats the purpose of this utility.
The major size difference between OOne's ROMs and the source ROMs is OOne does NOT include the "Extras" folder from the source ROM in it's build.
After using the keyboard editor it will place the LatinIME.apk in the apps "Recycle Bin". This is not an error but done on purpose. I use this list, the "Recycle Bin" contents that is, to skip over files in the source ROM that I don't want included in the build. The mini LatinIME.apk will appear in the correct folder, user data or system, in the output ROM.
Steps to obtain the best results from OOne ROM Editor
After choosing the ROM you wish to edit
Select "System Apps" in the treeview control on the left side of the GUI. Remove/delete/move any unwanted apk's at this time. DO NOT delete or remove LatinIME.apk.
Go to the Tools menu and select "LatinIME Keyboard Editor". Choose whatever dictionaries to include in the mini LatinIME and press the 'Apply' button to save the choices. From here, the keyboard editor will remove LatinIME.apk from the "System Apps" list.
Remove any unwanted fonts and ringtones. I usually don't bother.
Add any additional user apps. Select "User Apps" in the treeview on the left side of the GUI then right click in listview control on the right side of the GUI. A popup menu will appear and then choose/select the "Add" command item. A file dialog will appear and you can add as many additional files that you'd like to the user data partition. Note :: The more apps that you add, the longer it will take for the device to boot the first time.
Press F12 or go to the Tools menu and then select the "Build->Build Options" menu item. Set any options and press the "Apply" button.
Now build the trimmed ROM. Press F9 or go to the Tools menu and then select "Build->Build ROM" menu item.

Honestly, I have no clue. I still don't understand why it won't run on Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit. It runs flawlessly on Window 7 Home Premium 64 bit. Any findings would be greatly appreciated tho

This tool was designed to assist with removing unwanted applications, ringtones, and fonts from our CM10 roms so as to shrink the overall size of the system partition prior to flashing a CM10 rom. This tool will only edit CM10 ROMs for LG Optimus One family devices. Meaning, if the chosen base rom is not a CM10 rom or it's not build for LG-P500, LG-P500h, LG-P505, LG-P506, or LG-P509 devices, then it won't allow you to edit the rom. This was done intentionally, since it seems that our devices are the ones with the small system partition.
I do have future plans for a universal ROM editor however. Also, you can find a slightly better description of the workings of this tool and want not in the 'docs' folder.
Know Issues
This tool has been developed and tested on Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit. It is a 32 bit tool however. I have a beta tester who tried to run this on Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit and well, it crashed. So, currently this tool will NOT run on Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit. I'm looking into this issue.
Features
Remove system apps or convert them to user apps
LatinIME Keyboard Editor - Create a mini LatinIME.apk from the language dictionaries you choose
User Apps Manager - Manage system apps converted to user apps as well as including apps from your local filesystem
Recycle Bin - Restore files accidentally removed from the current build
More to come...
Installation
Just download and unzip to a folder of your choosing and run LG-P50X_CM10_ROM_Editor.exe. This tool has no external dependencies.

That's the thing. I had someone test it on a Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit machine and it wouldn't go past the building of the filelists after choosing a rom. He tried running it as an Administrator and also with UAC turned off and on. Weird.

Have you or anyone else tried this on Windows 8? Curious if it runs on it or not. Damn 64 bit systems. It may be time for me to change programming languages, as much as I hate to.
Ok. I see there's been about 100 downloads of this so far. I realize that in most cases no news is good news, however that makes it difficult to improve the software without any feedback. So... if there are any issues or suggestions for this tool, please let me know.
And, I have a few more abilities in the works...
Thanks for the excellent tool,Great idea.
Just one suggestion,while selecting the file to be deleted from media folder only single item can be selected, kindly enable multi select.

Hmmm, multi-select is enabled by default when the control ( ListVIew ) is created. I can assure you that I did not disable it. Is your system set up for one click or two clicks to open files from say, Windows Explorer?
May be, i will try again. thanks for your reply.

Nexus Device that has a system app you do not want
Grade school diploma (i.e. ability to read)
THE SKINNY
WHAT IS NIGHTLY UPDATER
Nightly Updater is an AROMA installer for those that
yearn to have the cleanest device. Since I first
owned an HTC Droid Eris, I have been wiping bloatware
off of my device. Flash foward to my latest devices -
LG Nexus 4 and the 2013 Asus Nexus 7 and there ain't
much bloatware... But, all AOSP ROMs tend to come with
at least one or two apps that I can do without (and
sometimes a lot more). Nightly Updater is a simple
tool that allows users to remove unwanted system
applications in an easy manner. NU also allows users
to customize which apps are removed.
HOW DOES IT WORK
Nightly Updater works by relying on scripts that
read txt files. When customizing your script, the
installer looks for junk.txt in the "NU" folder of
your virtual (i.e. internal) SD card. Each line that
has not been "commented out" (i.e. does not have a
"#" at the front of it) or any terms (i.e. app
descriptions) that follow a "#" are removed from the
script. This leaves Nightly Updater with a clean text
file that only has the applications you want to remove.
Review:
Custom Script is called: junk.txt
Custom Script goes here: /sdcard/NU/junk.txt
#Chrome.apk -- NOT DELETED FROM DEVICE
Chrome.apk -- DELETED FROM DEVICE
Chrome.apk #Google Browser -- AFTER "#" IGNORED
HOW DO I ADD MY OWN APPS
You can add your own apps in three ways: [1] name (without
apk), [2] name (with apk), or [3] file path.
[1] Name (without ".apk")... Just type:
Code:
Chrome
The installer will automatically know it is looking for an apk and
delete Chrome.apk.
[2] Name (with ".apk")... Just type:
Code:
Chrome.apk
I think you know what it does.
[3] Full File Path... Now, you can get a little funkier and do the entire
file path like:
Code:
/data/app/Chrome.apk
This comes in
handy for files like pre-loaded wallpapers and
ringtones you may want to remove. Be cognizant of
where the files you are removing are located! This
will become very important when telling Nightly
Updater where to scan.
By the way, Nightly Updater also recognizes wildcards.
This is great for those user apps that end up having
unpredictable file names. For example:
Code:
/data/app/com.google.android.youtub*.apk
com.google.android.youtube*
These are both ways of erasing YouTube regardless of
the "-X" at the end of the file name.
WHAT'S UP WITH SCANNING
When using a Custom Script, Nightly Updater asks
where you would like to scan for apps. By default,
Nightly Updater recommends you only scan in the
System/App folder - which is where (shocker) system
apps are located. Remember, most junk apps are located
in System/App. However, Nightly Updater has also given
the option to scan Data/App. Some developers will put
apps in the Data/App folder, so it may be useful to
remove apps from there. But NORMALLY, these are only
the apps you chose to install. The final option is
to scan EVERYWHERE. Be very cautious with this command!
Remember that it is matching what you write in
junk.txt with the scan parameter. If you accidentally
wrote "system" as an app you wanted to remove instead
of SystemTuner.apk (with full scan on)... you would
erase your system folder... that's REALLY BAD!!!
Now, if you only check this option when you are using
full path and double check your junk.txt file so that
you did not make any mistakes... YOU ARE GOOD!!!
When in doubt, post your junk.txt here and I will
check it over for you
WHAT'S THE DEFAULT SCRIPT
If you download junk.txt from the OP at XDA, then
you have seen the Default Script. The Default
Script is meant to remove apps that MOST people
would consider expendable. If you are nervous to
tinker with your own Custom Script, try running
the Default Script first. If the script deleted
an app you need or did not delete at app you want
to destroy - hit me up and I will walk you
through the steps.

I will get right on that with the next update! I'm beginning to think this DevDB thing was a mistake. Good idea in theory but is hard for mobile users and those not wanting to use the latest theme. Hopefully the next update is right around the corner :fingers-crossed:
I don't see anything really N4 specific. Have you considered placing your tool in the general android apps forum for all to use? I just upgraded a nook hd+ to carbon rom and was planning to put the nightly updater on it so thought I'd double check in case I missed something.

Instructions for customizing the bloatware removal and build.prop tweaks:
Located in "/files/bloat/nobloat.txt" is a text file named nobloat.txt, Choose "File" - Edit Bloat Removal and make your changes.
To add your customizations simply add the file name of the apk (Case Sensitive), if the apk also has a coresponding odex
file you will need to add the path to that as well following all case sensitive patterns. Be careful when adding apks to this list if you
add an apk that is required by the system to boot you will be required to flash the stock rom and start over from scratch.
To edit the build.prop tweaks use the "File" - Edit Build.prop Settings, make your changes and save the file.
To Edit the sysctl settings use the "File" - Edit sysctl Configuration, make your changes and save the file.
Once you are comfortable that you have your configurations correct you can move on to applying the features
of this toolkit to your device.

Huh. This actually worked for me. These things never work for me. There is a noticeable difference in speed.
Thanks!
Why not make it flashable?
Just a question, I see this lots of things to install and manually run why not make it flashable via CWM or TWRP???

this was designed to work with the three main 217 models since the AT&T model is the one I own i needed to create this package to work for that model.so rather than create two different packages that do the same thing i created it as a script manager based install that will work on all three devices.

should work fine on 217S as long as your running stock firmware, should work for 4.1.2 and 4.2.2

Everything i build is prefixed with "S5" actually has nothing to do with any samsung galaxy model...
Worked liked a charm! One tangible dfference I noticed right off the bat is that I can now record at higher resolution with the dashcam app I use autoboy. Before the script it would freeze when I selected 720p even though when using the regular camera it can record at 720P for autoboy it would freeze. Can't wait for other tweaks to imrpove this tablet. Thanks again for your hard work.
This worked on the T-Mobile version 217T

hmmm, should have worked for Sprint as well, could you possibly post me a copy of your build.prop i believe that may be where the issues are,
for now i have updated the OP to warn against flashing on Sprint models until i resolve the issue.
Ran this script last night on mine "Sprint" version and it seems to have installed but I was unable to locate the files you posted to look for.

yep, i need a copy of someones build.prop to verify my settings aren't causing the issue also if possible after running the script and before rebooting if possible check to make sure that the permissions on build.prop are 0644
Where is it located. I'll grab it now.
