Same error again, but that time it appeared much more quickly than the previous times. And as a precaution, do you want me to replace the META file or just copy over it, because i am using linux and i copy it over and I think it adds to the META.

Yes replace it: delete META-INF folder from the rom ZIP and add the one from META-INF-NEW.ZIP to rom ZIP.
But i think the download was BAD and you will need to download again the ROM

[MOD]Android L Softkeys - UPDATED!!

Want to have the new Android L softkeys on your phone? Well, now you can!
To have these softkeys, you can download the icons attached to this post and put them into the appropriate drawable-?dpi folder in your decompiled SystemUI.apk.
Or, if you're not comfortable with decompiling apk files, just flash the attached 'Android_L_SoftKeys_Flashable_For_JB.zip' or 'Android_L_SoftKeys_Flashable_For_KK.zip' in CWM (not TWRP).
On JB and the 'Android_L_SoftKeys_Flashable_For_JB.zip' file doesn't work for you? Try the 'Android_L_Softkeys_Flashable_For_JB_2' file instead!
This zip will inject the icons directly into your SystemUI.apk. Which means you won't lose any of the other mods you may have done to it!
Oh, and this zip will make a flashable backup too! Just in case you don't like the changes.
Please note though...this zip will only work on Android 4.1 and above..
(Or, if you use Tickle My Android, why not just let the tool do it for you? I've just updated it with these icons!)
Enjoy!

Updated with a flashable zip!

Thanks

Because you've changed the height of your navbar. You need to edit your navbar.xml and remove the ScaleType attribute from the line that controls the back softkey.

I meant your L720T stock one, just replace the apk, set permissions to 0644, and reboot. If that works I'll make a flashable. If not I'll have to redo the mod for the L720T.

Are you able to receive incoming calls with this mod installed?

I cannot get this to work on my S4. I'm running the stock rooted ROM "L720_OD2_Stock_Rooted_ROM". I've flashed this following the directions, yet after I reboot and try to restart the phone, I do not get the menu of choices. It simply says "The device will restart" where I have a choice between Cancel and Restart.
SW Version: L720VPUGOD2
Model Number: SPH-L720
Android Version: 5.0.1
I've tried flashing multiple times with and without wiping cache/dalvik. I've also tried reflashing my ROM and immediately afterwards flashing this mod. I'm pretty certain I've tried every possible combination of flashing this update, but I can't get this to work.
Any ideas?

I assumed I was. I wasn't too familiar with the odexed/deodexed thing, so I followed a guide I found online and I didn't have any .odex files on my phone, so I assumed my ROM was deodexed. Are stock-based ROMs neither? I suppose it might be worth noting that I've installed other mods on this ROM such as the native hotspot hack, all of which were deodexed mods, and all installed/worked perfectly fine.
Thanks.

[ROOT][GUIDE]Install the Google Search 5.2 on the M preview with hotword detection

Hey guys I'm going to keep this clean and simple.
What you will need:
--The .apk from here (APKMirror ftw!)
--The .zip file I've attached to this post (the .so files are extracted from the .apk file) It is not flashable!!!!
--The latest Marshmallow preview installed
--Root
Steps:
1) Download the .apk and the zip files
2) With your favorite Root Browser, browse to /system/priv-app/Velvet/
3) Delete the current Velvet.apk and replace it with the new one make sure the permissions are correct (-rw-r-r)!!!
4) Then browse to /system/priv-app/Velvet/lib/arm/, delete all the .so files there, then place the ones you downloaded and extracted from the zip here again, make sure the permissions are correct (-rw-r-r)!!!
5) Reboot
6) Profit!
Notes: This does set the app drawer back to horizontal scrolling, and Voice search works, along with the hotword detection (everywhere)! If you guys want screenshots/proof of hotword detection working I can upload screenshots later. But please be sure to explicitly tell me.
Thanks!

First? Lol.

The function(s) of the app are not any different. The Google Search 5.2 update changed most aesthetics of the app. Screenshots can be found in a compilation here: http://www.androidpolice.com/2015/09/01/google-app-updated-to-version-5-2-33-with-new-logo-icon-color-galore-and-slightly-revamped-google-now-ui-apk-download/ (thanks to AP!). So the hotword detection isn't any different functionally, but it looks different.

Woah you're right... The lockscreen works perfectly but when the phone is on there's a problem. I know its a problem with the "draw over Apps" setting in M because 5.1 had an option there and 5.2 doesn't... Dang it Google! On the good side you can still do calculations and send messages because it reads the "solutions"...
Thanks for the report I'll add it to the OP ASAP

There's no need to install it. Simply copy everything then reboot. It will install automatically after a reboot if you did everything correctly.

It has been removed unfortunately. However, your best best to do this task would be with optical reader.

Look for camera modules that can be downloaded from the more setting in camera...may be it's there

Hi,
A bit old but...: http://phandroid.com/2015/12/02/galaxy-note-5-s6-edge-plus-update/
Another key change Samsung seems to have made is the reintroduction of optical character recognition — the Smart Select feature’s ability to read text — on the Samsung Galaxy Note 5. We’re not sure why the feature was taken out in the first place, but folks are sure to be glad it’s back.

On my N920C I was on the same boat on stock firmware but I found a workaround, I extracted the SmartClipService.apk (it's the Smart Select option) from an updated rom and it works! I choose Smart Select, I choose a texte then share to the clipboard in full text only or share to Snote and you can edit the text.
For those who want see in attachment for the apk, replace the existing one in /system/app/SmartClipService, set the correct permission (rw-r--r--) and if you are on an odexed rom delete the arm64 folder, reboot in recovery, wipe Dalvik-Cache and you should be good to go.
Maybe make a Nandroid backup before replacing the file, I'm not responsible if something goes wrong...

Hi,
If it's about my post then yes you need root.
The nice thing I noted is that when you click on the "T" after the smart select you can directly copy / paste the text or only a part of the text, like in the first screenshot at the bottom part. I mean I can choose only the word "connexion" for example and copy / paste it without the use of the share option.
It's a shame that the last update for my N920C doesn't have this update... and it's needed to do the thing with the apk from another firmware...

Maybe it's better explained like this :

yes, i'm also on 920c and i really miss this feature...but i'm not allowed to root my phone. Hope they will add it in the next 920c firmware

Hi,
Yes it works, but you must have root... Otherwise you will need to wait for an "official" firmware update for your model, maybe the feature will comee back.
