[Q] Remove (or change) CARRIER boot/shutdown animations - Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help &

As much I do not like to post maybe "straighforward" questions.. I have been looking for it through the forum and google but I cannot find a proper answer for the Galaxy S3 LTE (I9305). Actually, I am looking the same as in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2732339 but for the S3 LTE. I do not want mess up things (such a soft brick / bootloop / death black screens) replacing files from other galaxys stock rom.
I am root, stock branded rom, and I would prefer avoid flashing new rom. The method posted above seems the best for my case, just replace the "bootsamsung.qmg", "bootsamsamsungloop.qmg" files on system/media folder.
Can anyone point me (or upload it) proper stock animations from the international version of the phone (unbranded) and will this work for the S3 LTE?

Well, I gave myself a try to that post. The boot & shutdown animations worked perfectly =)

[q] is it possible to...???

I'm on JV9 ODEX rom (of my carrier), and I wanted to ask if it's possible to do the folowing on ODEX rom:
1) Disable the increasing ringtone? It's the most important - IT'S DRIVING ME CRAZY
2) Enable CRT off screen?
3) Get rid of the battery icon - it really doesn't help if no it doesnt show precentage.
Thanks.
You could do all those with a custom ROM of your choice... But that wouldn't be an ODEX ROM then...
I know that.
But i like a specific rom and it works excellent, but it's odexed, so i wanna know if it's possible to apply these changes on an odexed rom!

[Q] Flashable Icons? :S

Hello everyone, i have a question.
There's a bunch (tons i shall say) of flashable .zips to change UI icons (Flashable icons)
For Ace, For Mini, for S2 and lots of more models.
So ive decided to try flashing it on my phone, to my surprise no packages seem to work.
Really, does Samsung Galaxy S Plus support icon changing? Or do i need to flash a ROM?
I'm asking about stock 2.3.6, TouchWiz 5 interface, any suggestions? Because i would love to change them.
Update 2012.11.30
Found sort of Uot Kitchen program. I'm not getting used to it and it's not a kind of thing i am looking for.
Still hoping for help on icon changing.
I´m interest in that too

Lockscreen Widgets?

Will we be able to get lock screen widgets with any of the ROMs? Or since the ROMs have to be based on TouchWiz, does that mean we're stuck with basically just themed roms? None of the ones out yet seem interesting, they all just look stock. I'm looking for a rom with custom battery icons, new features, lockscreen widgets, etc. Really missing my Samsung Galaxy S3 with the lack of customization available for the S5.

Check out ninjamorph(in the playstore). I just found it a few days ago u can theme the heck out of your phone with it. Once you get the hang of it it's a breeze. However you do have to have your own icons to swap out or just edit the ones that are there. Here's my power menu themed with ninjamorph

ok, tested and working on my device based off of G900F OEM, this mod should work for all variants. let me know how it goes
copy to sdcard, reboot to SS Recovery and flash, then reboot.
to add or change widgets swipe left or right on the lockscreen

Very much appreciate that you took the time to do this - I'm assuming I need the ROM as well, correct? Or will this work with the stock ROM just by following your steps?

This "Should" work with stock as well as any custom ROM, (I say should because as a mod it is independant of any other requirements) but make sure you flash through SafeStrap recovery make a backup first just to be safe.

Gave it a try but no bueno with the stock ROM. After flashing the zip and rebooting, I lost the lockscreen and hardware menu and home buttons entirely, only the back button was working. Restoring my backup now -- tonight I'll try flashing your ROM and then install the lockscreen widgets.
Wanted to update this thread in case anyone else wanted Lockscreen Widgets back - I installed SafeStrap and the KoolKit ROM then flashed the zip file and I have LockScreen widgets again. Huge thank you to @cstayton for coming up with a solution so quickly!
You can also use Xposed instead of flashing SafeStrap to get Lockscreen Widgets...

xPosed has lots of modules for all sorts of different things HOWEVER, xPosed also causes some very abhorent behavior in custom roms and can cause bad behavior even in stock rooted devices most devs shy away from xPosed in favor of hard coded mods. if the module works fine for then great but if you have issues like private mode not working serious lag on your device or other problems try using the hard coded mods with a custom rom
