Easy Way to Disable Navbar

Don't know of this has been mentioned before, but its an easy way to get rid of the sotfkeys.
Add this line to your build.prop, then reboot.
qemu.hw.mainkeys=1
This should work on all ROMs and devices 4.x.x.
To re-enable the softkeys, just change the 1 to a 0 and reboot.

Gestures.

i guess pretty much all roms let you do that on the fly without reboot or changing config files.

CM doesn't really have it. They have "Expand Desktop" but that takes away the notification bar too. I still use the method in the OP to remove the nav bar everytime I flash a new CM nightly.

[MOD] Update PRL from Phone UPDATE 2 for KitKat

Update 2: Attached is an EPST that will allow ##778# PRL changes on KitKat ROMS. It took me a while to figure this out. I had planned on posting this up, but wanted to keep it a Bad Boyz exclusive for a short while. Again the teams intention was always to share this with the community.
Update: I finally cracked EPST. If you have changed your sku to 42, you can set it back to 10 and flash the PRL_Update below. If you have not flashed this, and would like ##778# to work, you can flash the EPST_Only.zip
The EPST will not work on a ROM that already has the sku set to 42
The attached zip includes a modified Phone.apk and the EPST and Fieldtrial apks posted by schmeggy929. This MOD will allow you to change your PRL by dialing ##778# while maintaining the proper CDMA settings under settings> Mobile Data. You need to be rooted to do this.
Instructions:
1) Open a file manager and navigate to system/customize/ACC/default.xml. Open this with an editor and near the bottom change:
<item type="integer" name="sku_id">10</item>
To:
<item type="integer" name="sku_id">42</item>
2) Reboot into recovery and flash the attached zip
3) Wipe caches and reboot
Note: Depending on how the location icon was removed from your ROM, this MOD may cause it to reappear. For those on 5.5 ROMs. this will also get rid of the persistent 3G icon in the status bar.

I thought PRL already worked on that ROM.
Try again, then go to setting>Mobile Data>Network Mode and make sure it is set to CDMA

EcliticOne and Insertcoin both have the sku_set to 42, but they aren't using the Phone.apk that I modified. If you flash the zip on those ROMs you will have to manually set the network mode.
EDIT: Also- on EclipticOne, I don't know how this might jack up the inversion. If someone wants to post up their Phone.apk, I will modify it so that you guys will have the proper CDMA settings- i.e. the ability to switch LTE on and off- while maintaining the color scheme.

EPST_Only.zip........ confirming works with Viper RC2 rom
Thanks chas :good:
EPST worked fine for me with insertcoin but I have seens others saying it dont work for them for some strange reason so this mod may be useful for those guys too.

This did bring EPST functionality back on InsertCoin R289. However, it does not get rid of the persistent 3G icon and it does bring the location icon back. Any body have any idea how to fix those two problems?

That is going to have to be fixed by whoever cooked up your particular ROM. 5.5 is not ready for prime time where sprint is concerned. The persistent 3g icon and the location icon are there by HTC's doing.

So, if we flash this will it give us a stock dialer? Just wondering what it would do to the themed tranquil dialer...
Thanks for working on this for the community, us sprint users know the need for roaming and 3g data!

If you have a themed Phone.apk, have your sku set to 10 (please check out the OP), and flash the EPST_Only.zip it will have no other effect than to give you the ##778# function.

I tried this on TranquilOne and the only way I got it to work was to make the edit(changing 10 to 42) and flash the PRL.zip. Only downside was it gave me a black on black EPST popup the one where you choose View or Edit. I tried the EPST zip and it wouldn't even bring up the menu.

Make sure to backup your current system Ui. Apk.

I have stock DPI and have the same issue. Probably has something to do with the fact the mod is for the N5 which has the DPI set to something else

I modded the nexus 6's systemui apk to center the clock, and make it gray. So far its working well enough. It looks a little weird on the lockscreen though, as it is not quite aligned with the other icons. Feel free to flash it and let me know how it goes. Backup your system first though.

I flashed it.. Nice work!
Hopefully we can see it removed from the lockscreen completely once the bugs are worked out.

Center Clock and no Carrier text

So, thanks to this thread by @Ticklefish and of course the great work by @scrosler giving us CleanROM 1.1. I made a "center clock and Carrier Text removed" (from normal status bar, it's still on lockscreen status bar though) SystemUI.apk.
This is deodexed and so you need to be on a deodexed ROM or I think you can just delete the files in the arm64 folder, but I'm not 100% on if that will work.
Put the file in /system/priv-app/SystemUI/ and change permissions to 0644.
If this does not work, don't blame me, I am not the one moving the files and such on your phone, you are, and so YOU take responsibility for YOUR actions.
Edit: had to remove the ROM from the other thread, there was a misunderstanding of the Dev's ROM OP which lead to me thinking it was OK to use, it was not. I may try again but it'll be a while, I have much more important things in my life then redoing work.

Nice!
On that thread, there is a post with a smali mod for stopping the clock from showing on the lockscreen. I can't guarantee that it'll work but it's worth trying!

Aye, it was after midnight when I finally realized why my status bar icons we're messed up (an android:layout_width issue). I'll try that in a bit lol. Have to take care of the little one's breakfast first.

Just to verify clean rom is NOT deodexed by default correct?

Got it all fixed up and put it onto a deodexed version of @scrosler clean rom. Again thanks for the tips and guide.
Update. Redid the ROM based on stock. It's up again in the development section.

So on stock rooted:
Just replace the original systemui.apk with this one, make sure permission is 0644 and restart?

Not unless you want bootloops. This is deodexed. You need a deodexed ROM. You MAY be able to delete the files in arm64 folded and replace the apk with mine, then fix permissions and reboot. I can't promise that will work though as I've not tried.

Deodexed or no? Clean rom is no deodexed by itself. Also the SystemUI is pulled from OE2 so it probably won't work on OCE based ROMs

Keep a notification active ( signal check keeps your signal in notification, blocking AT&T, sure others like tasker and such can to).
No other easy way I know of. Convince the system your on a different carrier ( not sure how). Get exposed to work and make a module. Decompile SystemUI yourself and make the XML changes.

Google around for CSC edits. You can change a CSC value to imitate a Verizon S6 and you'll lose the carrier notification.

You must decide if you want to use Google IncallUI or Samsung InCallUI. Samsung InCallUI will allow too still receive and switch to video calls and the google IncallUI will only support HD calling. To switch to google IncallUI goto settings/applications click on default applications choose calling app and click on the blue phone app. To switch back to samsung IncallUI is a little more complicated. You will need an app like root explorer and goto data/system/users/0 and then findthe setting_secure.xml and delete and then restart phone. This will restore samsung IncallUI as default
You will also want to turn edge features off since everthing is deleted
Also you need to goto SuperSU app and goto settings and click on enable su during boot and also click trust system users
Goto this thread and under Recommended Next Steps find the S7_or_S7Edge_Fixes_V15.zip or latest version and flash to fix kernel lage and doze fix.
Goto setting/about phone
Click on build number 5 times to enable developer options
Change animation and duration scales to .05 this will speed up phone
You will also have to change charging/file mode from within developer options
Remember Wiping Dalvik cache will cause phone to take up to 10 min to boot on deodexed roms

I didnt mean for my reply to come across rude. I just thought since the OP looks like the other one you thought it was the same. This is basically nothing but a bootable rom with like 5 apps installed thats it there are over 180 running apps removed. I kind of thought it would be cool to be able to build your rom how ever you want it without having to worry about what you can delete and what you cannot. I appreciate the support especially on new development. Understand I have many threads and and other devices so i sometimes keep my answers short and direct especially when using the mobile app which I hate using.

Ok, that is what I thought. I just was trying to determine if there was anything else major missing from that other ROM, knowing some apps would have to be pulled or installed, hence your "Playstore" moniker for this ROM. Ok, this is a good clean base ROM for those who like to order "a la carte" down the road when the need for other features are required. I may give it a spin for the fun of it.
Cool! We are good.

I actually found one of the battery saver apps to be causing the issue. I think it was amplify through xposed, it caused the mobile data to turn off when connected to wifi. So, i turned it off and haven't had an issue since.
