Hi all. Continuing my year of good luck, my house was mostly destroyed during flood following Hurricane Irene at the end of August. The good news is that I have always wanted to own waterfront property, but the bad news is that I have been a vagabond for the last month with 2 little kids and a very pregnant wife, so I have been WAY to crazy to think about smartphones, hence the lack of updates, communication, progress on the ROM.
Now, there is a silver lining - I am a music producer, and my main recording and post-production facility was completely destroyed by the same flood, so I will have a lot of time on my hands to make ROMs over the next few months while I rebuild my business. I am also settled into a temporary place with internet, so should be good to go. I have two Inc 1 ROMs 85-90% done: "Pure" Magnolia which is completely based on the most recent OTA GB update and incorporates some useful features without going to far out, and "Dirty" Magnolia, which is my port of the Inc 2 ROM I am also working on over in that forum. THis ROM has sense 2.1 plus a smattering of 3.0 features and, so far, is quite nice IMHO. I cannot tell for sure when I will be able to release these, but I will start new threads for each, so be on the lookout.
Finally, I want to say thanks for all of the support and understanding I have received throughout my rocky 2011, and it is my sincere hope that I can be the progressive, dependable developer that I hope I was before I got glaucoma back in April.
Anyway, the ROMs will be out when they're ready, and I look forward to sharing the with you.
I attach some photos of my home and studio for your viewing pleasure, and, yes, that's yours truly looking at the debris....

Changelog
B]Final 1.3.2[/B]
Battery fix from last version is now built into the ROM by default;
All Extras other than App Extras and Status Bar Icon hide/show zips have been stripped from the ROM itself and will be in post #3 as downloads;
[*}Added JSChiSurf's PowerWidgetControl app that allows a great deal of customization of the power control widgets (e.g., what the sound/vibrate button does, brightness increments, etc.);
Updated AppFolders to latest (1.5) version and themed it;
Both AppFolders and NoAppFolders Versions of Rosie mods have a 5-column app drawer by default now (4 colums will be available in post #3 shortly);
Updated Flashplayer to 10.2, with hulu patch that (usually) flashes when you flash the ROM (If it doesn't work, flash "Hulu_Patch.apk" in the Magnolia FOlder under App_Extras");
Updated Gmail, Maps, RomManager, Busybox Installer, Voice Search, Google Search and more.
Have refined what init.d scripts the ROM runs and the task killer tweak built into the kernel to achieve the best balance (IMHO) between performance and battery life;
Fixed some graphical issues in Rosie and Rosie remaps that were bothering me;
A LOT more that I can't remember right now...
B]Final 1.3.1[/B]
Fixed issue where flashing ROM deletes apps that are installed to SD card (e.g., Aldiko, Angry Birds);
Updated Flashplayer to most recent version (10.1.106.16);
Removed Hulu from data/app/ and made it an optional install in the Magnolia/App_Extras/ folder. Flashing Hulu.zip will give you working hulu with the most recent flash, plus it works with Adfree Android and survives reboots (at least it did for me and several others). The only drawback is that flash will not show up as an installed app in Market (whether or not you install Hulu);
Fixed FC issue with Adobe Reader;
Updated Gmail, Maps, RomManager, etc.
Cleaned up my updater-script and found some duplicates and other issues, so install should be smoother and performance better overall.
Got frustrated and tired, but I think it was worth it...
Final 1.3
Added Lockscreen Mod;
Replaced busybox version from last release and fixed/improved its interactions with the init.d scripts to make the ROM smoother and faster;
Aded hosts file that blocks ads and still allows hulu to work (I hope...);
Fixed some graphical issues in Rosie that were bugging me;
SLOWED DOWN (yeah, that's right) some animations to make the ROM feel smoother;
Updated Maps, Gmail and other apps;
Minor graphical and performance tweaks;
A lot more that is incredibly boring, but really makes the ROM work better
Final 1.2
Updated all amend scripts to edify standard so the ROM and add-ons flash with new clockwork recovery 3.x versions (and to stop being a fossil!);
Put in place functionality that will allow future versions to know which apps have been uninstalled and not to reinstall them;
Added init.d script functionality and several scripts that will clean up permissions on first boot, zipalign on every reboot, speed up SDCard read and generally make things run smoother and faster;
Fixed naf_rom_default_icons" rosie mod;
Fixed issue where camera wouldn't save videos as mp4s;
Fixed issue where android clock used when Vanilla Lockscreen option is implemented shows gibberish instead of date and mapped music key in same to HTC music, not the stock Android one;
Added option for 5-columns in both AppFolders and stock app drawer;
Added Conservative Color Notification Icons option;
Compressed some additional elements of the framework to make things faster (tell me what you think);
more animation tweaks (still stock, though );
Updated all apps (fingers crossed);
Minor graphical tweaks (including some new wallpapers);
More I am sure I forgot...
Final 1.1.1
Reverted back to latest stock HTC kernel;
Added Gscript Lite and seveal scipts to remove sense or uninstall unwanted system apps;
Final 1.1
24 custom Rosie right button mappings in the default icon flavor, with color and gingerbread flavors coming soon;
Fixed issue with kernel that caused sluggish behavior at times;
Got rid of ad blocking, as it was just too disruptive to browsing and any other avtivity that used the web (if you need ad blocking, just download "AdFree Android" from the market, it's free!);
Added Hulu and patched flash;
Added DSP Sound Manager;
Removed VZW BackUpServices from /data/app/, as it did not function well there, and put a flashable zip for this program in the "Magnolia" folder so users can flash to /system/app/ if they want to;
Included Gingerbread Icon Rosie in Magnolia folder;
Minor graphical and performance tweaks;
More I am sure I forgot...
Final 1.0
Fixed Gingerbread Keyboard & symbol
Fixed Voice Search
Added more options in "Magnolia" folder, including Vanilla Lockscreen option;
Made appdrawer (both AppFolders and Stock) semi-transparent;
Fixed MMS sometimes FCs;
Fixed camera shutter sound;
many graphical fixes/improvements;
Updated all apps (including Flash);
Updated to Ziggy's latest BFS build;
A lot more I can't remember;
RC3
Reengineered (see above) most APKs for smaller RAM footprint;
Added uncapped data mod;
Added ad-blocking host file;
Fixed Flickr sharing issue;
Added custom rosie launcher icons;
Switched to show clock & alarm as default;
Switched back to Ziggy's kernel, as I really really like them...
Updated various apps;
Probably lots more I forgot...
RC2
Customized FriendStream, Twitter and News Widgets to fit better with overall look of ROM;
Added Gingerbread keyboard;
Fixed problem with notification bar widgets where indicator lights didn't match state of toggle;
Fixed mismatched app drawer arrow animation when using standard app drawer;
Messed with the animations a bit more for smoother performance;
Updated NoAppFolders.zip in Magnolia folder to remap app drawer key and uninstall AppFolders;
Updated status bar icon show/hide .zips in magnolia folder to include the power widget fix noted above;
Moved some apps (VVM, Talk) back to /system/app/, as they weren't showing up properly for some users;
Updated all apps
Probably lots more, but it's late and my brain is fried...
Add-ons and Extras
First, I would like to note that user Devildog8791 has made some incredible themes and mods for this ROM, including colored menus, colored notification icons, dialer and full themes. They can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=981760
Now for my stuff...
Using Gscript to Remove Apps or Desensitize
When you flash Magnolia and application called GScript Lite will be installed to your device while a folder called "gscript" will be pushed to your sdcard. This will allow you to uninstall apps that are cooked into /system/ (i.e., ordinarily not installable) and to remove sense altogether for use with ADW or another alternative launcher. To use, open GScript Lite, hit menu-->Add Script-->Load File, and choose your script. Please be careful, as this can really make you mad when you run the wrong script . The Desensitize script will remove all HTC widgets, but not HTC apps, and install ADW Launcher.
Built-In Extras
When you flash Magnolia, a file called "Magnolia" is pushed to your sdcard. Within this folder are two subfolders: App_Extras and Statusbar_Extras. The App_Extras folders contains the following optional apps: EVO camera (same as regular camera, but with shutter button on-screen), WirelessRouter (Verizon's wireless tether app), wireless_tether (the free version of wireless tether), VZW Backup Assistant, and a patch for users who are experiencing problems with Hulu. All of these may be flashed as normal (backup first) except wireless_tether.apk, which you need to open using Astro or similar program.
Vanilla Lockscreens with Gestures
The following zip files will remove the standard HTC lockscreen that comes with the ROM and install JsChiSurf's Vanilla Lockscreens with Gestures Mod. Flashing this mod will give you the Vanilla 2-tab android lockscreen plus an application called "LockScreenSettings" with which you can create a 4-tab lockscreen with phone and messaging tabs, a rotary lockscreen and add gestures which allow you to open apps/activities while your phone is locked via gestures on the locked screen. Please see here for more info: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=919121
Screenshots:
Download: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/22769554/App_Extras/Lockscreens.zip
Circle Batteries
Flashing these will give you a circle battery instead of the stock battery. There are two versions, a blue and a green:
Download Blue: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/22769554/Statusbar_Extras/Circle_Battery_Blue.zip
Download Green: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/22769554/Statusbar_Extras/Circle_Battery_Green.zip
Colored Notification/Statusbar Icons
This will change your default white statusbar and notifications icons into colored icons. THIS IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH DEVILDOG'S MAGNOLIA THEMES/MODS, but is a stand-alone mod.
Install: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/22769554/Statusbar_Extras/Color_Notifications_Only.zip
Uninstall: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/22769554/Statusbar_Extras/Remove_Color_Notifications_Only.zip
Stock Rosie Icons and Order
Flashing this will give you stock Rosie icons and ordering (apps, phone, browser):
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/22769554/Rosie_Extras/reg_stock_rosie_icons.zip
Custom Rosie Right Button Remaps
As the title says, these will allow you to "map" the right button of you homescreen to an app other than browser (the ROM default). These also will allow users to (1) choose to use either Icons that go with the default ROM look and feel or color icons that add a bit more color to the ROM, (2) use the stock app drawer that comes with Sense, rather than the AppFolders program that comes with the ROM and (3) use a 4-column app drawer (AppFolders or Stock) rather than the ROM-default 5columns.
Here are screen shots of devices with the right button mapped to camera using the ROM default icons (L) and with the right button mapped to HTC Mail using the colored icons (M) and the stock app drawer open (R):
To use, choose and download one of the following large zip files, unzip the contents, then choose your preferred remap.zip in either AppFolders or No AppFolders flavors. Copy to your sdcard and flash as usual (backup first!!).

Been waiting patiently all day for this post to drop, Lovin SK rom cant wait to flash Magnolia.
Thanks for this Rom SK806 it definitely does look more refined/professional.
Looking forward to new right mapping buttons too!
Keep up the good work!
This is pretty. Sense is too gaudy. I like what you did with it

I loaded it about a half hour ago, and so far so good. I really like the look of the drop down widgets.
This is the fastest ROM I've used to date and it also fixed my constant 3G connection drop, which is awesome! Thank you very much for making such an awesome ROM.
Here is my feedback:
1) Google Talk is missing (had to find APK's to reinstall)
2) HTC built-in Visual Voicemail is missing (maybe provide an APK installer for people that use it?)
3) App Folders launcher is somewhat annoying and very slow. If possible for you to do, I would recommend removing App Folders and just utilize the stock All Apps option while keeping your transparency and modified Browser shortcut for the launcher.
4) A working Gingerbread keyboard is now available (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=875202) so that would be cool if you can include that as the default keyboard.
That's all I've noticed so far. I'll update as I use it more.
I agree on all counts. I use ADW, so the app folder thing isnt that big of a deal though.

Thanks for the input! I was thinking of making a non-appsfolders version. I guess I will now
I thought I had put VVM & Talk into /data/apps, but I guess not. Will fix that ASAP.

great rom, is there any chance you can theme the htc widgets though to match the rom. Doesn't have to be fully transparent, maybe semi would loook good.

Do you mean the list/item backgrounds? The buttons/headers/footers are already skinned...
Please let me know, and, if that's what you mean, I can take a stab at it!

Hey Steve,
I think the non-appsfolders version would be awesome. When I press MENU button and select All Apps, it is instant. With the Apps Folders app, it always says Loading for 1-2 seconds. I know, I know it's kind of ridiculous to whine about those seconds but another issue is that the Apps Folders app actually hides a few of my applications which is very weird. I don't know if anyone else has experienced that.
In regards to the VVM and Talk, I looked at the data/app folder and they are there but I'm not sure why they are not installed. Or maybe the Apps Folders app is the culprit?
If you need me to test your RC-Beta ROMS, let me know and I will happily do so because I love this ROM; so fast! And the fact my 3G signal is displaying accurately, that just makes me
Thanks Steve and anything I can you help with, let me know. I've never wanted to be this involved with any other ROM than this one or I wouldn't make such an effort...

To answer your second question, yes...I didn't post a changelog because it was a new thread, but I probably should have. I will get one together sometime in the next day or so. I am in korea visiting family and it's the holidays, so I am a bit preoccupied. Plan for an update and changelog soon, though!
The rom will be continued by lo2ay in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1666167
This rom is ported from the Chinese "LeWa" OS for C8650 and it it based on cm7.2 rc1.
All credit goes to Le Frog Technology for the LeWa OS:
http://www.lewaos.com/
DETAILS:
-LeWa OS includes data monitoring, power savings, custom and downloadable themes and lockscreens, notifications on the lockscreen, lockscreen animations, pop-up SMS notification window showing the text with the reply box, etc.
-ADW launcher and LeWa launcher
-Bravia engine
-Beats audio
-AGPS patch
-gapps included
-DSP manager
-built-in theme manager
WORKING:
almost everything
BUGS:
-The online theme tab force closes when wifi/data is turned on
-Some lockscreens needs resizing, to change it go to Settings>Personal>LockScreen>Style option>Lockscreeen style
-in v5 at first boot after a clean install my phone asked me various times to insert the pin code and during setup wizard some apps were force closing. Don't worry! it's only first boot! If phone continues to ask the pin code just go to settings>mobile network and try disabling data or changing network mode, after some times it will stop requesting pin code.
-in dialer you can't add # after a number
-you tell me...
SCREENSHOTS:
coming soon
PLEASE READ:
Status Bar:
-The top of the notification pull down is the data monitor.
-The button on the top right corner will free memory.
-Tap on the status bar and it will bring up apps, home and back button at the top.
Launcher:
-Swipe up to open drawer
Lockscreen
-If you want to change lockscreen go to Settings>Personal>LockScreen>Style option>Lockscreeen style
Theme:
Place these on your sdcard (or lewa/theme/theme) and force close the Launcher for the list to refresh and you will have a lot of themes now!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1565670
Also make sure that you're wifi/mobile data is turned off, so it doesn't force close when it loads the online theme list.

Found a video of it on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mVzc...DvjVQa1PpcFNlLnZQjD9UXwUCs1CWEufQ_6tQOiZ5uP0=
Update1:It's booting.
Update2: Booted, getting screenshots will make another post about the features and proposed changes and screenshots as well
Awesome. I'll try this out in a bit!
Okay, here we go
When the phone boots for the first time this is what you will see
Pretty nice, except for the icons, which you can't change! (more on this later)
As the OP said, the appdrawer labels are cut-off a bit
A fix might be gotten if you make the icons a bit smaller or make the grid smaller.
Also as the OP said the default lockscreen is pretty cut-off, to unlock it swipe up on either the yellow bird (dialer) or red bird (messaging) then go to Settings->Personal->Lockscreen->Style options->Lockscreen style and change it to anything else.
The settings are very nice! They're grouped by function and you switch between the groups by swiping left or right
Takes some time to get used to, but I like it a lot.
The notification pane works, but the power toggles are way to big. (FIXED IN v2!)
The top shows you your data usage and by tapping the orb in the top right you kill background tasks.
By tapping the data usage in the notifications you get to the data usage usage graph and by swiping right you get the app firewall, and by swiping left you get to the data monitor settings.
And here we come to the theme part, by default it only ships with one theme (angry birds)
There is an online tab, but that one force closes when it loads (!), which means you can change the theme to anything else (unless it gets fixed or if the ROM ships with another theme)
The dialer is really nice, it does have T9 dialing, but it has this odd blue line going down the center of it.
The contacts are also very nice, adopting the same ICS like left and right swiping to swipe between the contacts, favorites, call log and messaging
Pressing the chinese letter at the bottom will bring up initial letters which can be quickly used to get to Z for example.
It ships with two file managers IO File Manager (CM7 default) and it's own one.
In default view it shows you how many music files, pictures, videos, documents and .apk files you have and allows you to show them. It also shows you how full your SD card is.
By swiping left you get to a standard file manager, which allows you to browse your SD card (no internal phone memory though).
If you happen to dislike the stock launcher it does ship with ADW as well.
It comes with inbuilt SMS and call blocking.
Now for some stuff that I dislike.
No CM7 settings. If we had that, disabling the power widget would be easy and it would be a good temporary solution. It does integrate SOME parts of CM7 settings, like the lockscreen settings and performace settings among others, but just not enough.
---------- Post added at 07:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:00 PM ----------
Fixed the Angry Birds only theme problem.
Place these on your sdcard (or lewa/theme/theme) and force close the Launcher for the list to refresh and you will have a lot of themes now!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1565670
Also make sure that you're wifi/mobile data is turned off, so it doesn't force close when it loads the online theme list.
Makes the default launcher a lot more tolerable
Accidental double post.
(But I'll just keep the screenshot here )
Might as well use this post to say that I'm not able to set my time, timezone and date, because clicking on those options in the settings doesn't do anything!
looking good!
i shall try
downloading....
A new thing to try ....eagerly going to download and flash. Thnx nejc for your review ...

Okay, I'm trying to do some notification pane fixing, but I can't compile my modified SystemUI.apk with apktool(apkmultitool).
I attached a screenshot of the log.
Something I'm would try if it worked.
Under status_bar_tracking.xml in /res/layout there is a part that has the power widget, I'm thinking of we remove that it might serve as a temporary fix.
Another MIUI like rom. Will give it a try. I can volunteer to fix make it better if you like Thanks!
One thing I think that will help with the appdrawer.
in /res/values/integers.xml modify config_drawerRowsPortrait to 2, so that it has less app drawers rows. (That should work, can't test since I can't get apktool to compile)
Also (Again, not sure) to remove the buttons that pop up when you tap the status bar go to /systemui/res/values/bools.xml and change config_statusbar_buttons to false
It is great to see a new rom for once, hope this will get developed further.
I´m considering to make this my daily rom, once there comes other languages, like (My langauge) Danish
Just flashed it and loving it. Really smooth and fast. But as every rom it has some bugs in the settings when you click power save.
I have found a posible fix for the notification power widget.
It is a modified SystemUI.apk posted by parudthz in the Galaxy Mini forum (Same resolution)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23458805&postcount=37
I have tried pushing that one and I ended up without a status bar, did some copy pasting in the status_bar_tracking.xml which has the notification power widget and again ended up with no status bar.

Put it into the zip for our phone, sign it and reflash it. Might work. Did you reboot after pushing it to your phone?

I did reboot when pushing
Just tried adding it to /system/app in the ROM .zip file and it just bootloops.
Trying again with a full wipe.
Nope, still no status bar...
When I've been testing the statusbar tweaks I made I found I had all these problems pushing with adb etc...
The best way I found was to drop it in a zip and flash it, if the systemui isn't actually broken because of the changes you made it works everytime.

Try making an undo zip (I.e original systemui) it might need the same method as when flashing statusbar mods!!
1.Flash zip you modded (no status bar) boot up to test....if no statusbar.....
2.recovery flash undo zip,reboot to test..... all ok again.
3.recovery,re flash modded zip and see if it works this time.
Scratch knows more about this. Just an idea.

Hello Guys!
I tried making a Sword Art Online Widget Interface on my HTC Incredible S running on ICS.
preview is attached below. i cant post any links since im new sorry for the inconvenience
2 main applications I used:
Apex Launcher: available on google play
Glaeja : available on google play.
*Apex Launcher works for ICS and Jelly Bean only i think
I recommend installing Apex Launcher first
Apex Launcher setup after installation:
(Not sure this will work though, since settings are from my phone)
1. Download all the attached files with apex on it. Copy on sdcard. (extract zipped files)
2. Move apex_settings.bak to /sdcard/Android/data/apexlauncher/
3. Open apex settings and go to backup and restore
4. Select restore.
Glaeja Setup after installation:
1. Create New Widgets on Home Screen. 1 4x1 Glaeja Widget for the hpbatterybar and 2 3x3 Glaeja Widgets for the bars.
2. Download the skins, images and font files and paste them to the corresponding folders found in /sdcard/com.gmail.kanitawa.glaeja/
3.Select the widgets on HomeScreen and click Load Skin, select the corresponding skin file.
4. Select None on the On Click option.
Notes:
Apex:
-Key Settings:
Number of Screens = 3
Transition Effect = None
Use Tablet UI Mode = unchecked
Minimum Scrolling Time = 2
Show Wallpaper = checked, Mode = Singlescreen
Glaeja:
-For the Name on HP bar just edit widget and then find the corresponding text with Shawn on it. Edit the Display Text. same goes for LV: __
-For Shortcuts of the bar, the shortcuts can be replaced on the Transparent Buttons found on the bar widgets.
There is also a video showing my work on youtube, it has poor quality but it satisfies it purpose. (again sorry for not being able to post links since im new)
Thanks guys! And I hope some people find this post helpful. Comments will be greatly appreciated.
UPDATE:
Uploaded missing file manager icon

Thank you so much for this. It's really great. Took a while but I managed to get it to work with 7 screens to make more like in the Series.
Finally someone is trying to create a nice theme. Props.
OMG I LOVE SAO!
I would love to give this theme a go!
Could you please make a Nova compatible version??

How did you get the Apex buttons to open different Glaeja widget menus,as well as change to the yellow one when clicked? Or did you just make it look that way. Running on SGS3 with CM10.

Help
How exactly do you do all that you did to make it look the way it did in the images. I am completely lost in terms of what to do... I don't really know how to make anything come out as it should and after about an hour of messing around with everything I gave up on trying to figure out from the directions that were given... Can I get a step-by-step instruction as to how you set it up? thanks
Hey! Your SOA theme looks really amazing! I tried to set it up, but my apexlauncher wasn`t in the SC card?? Is there a different way to insert the settings into apex launcher?
Yea your instructions dont really help at all. Even had to create the folder for the apexlauncher but i somehow think that the settings backup didnt do anything at all. An howto would be very appreciated since it does look very good.

Just a heads up. You can use any images for the icons, any images for the widgets/text/etc. Once you grasp what is happening and put a lot of time into it, your imagination is the limit.
I'll try to explain what is happening here, that I see. I have a similar "tabbed' style setup on my tablet. I'm using Nova and a quick one button tutorial you can easily do to see what is happening goes as so...
1. Press and hold blank spot on screen, press Nova actions, then press jump to page, and select page 2 (this will be 2nd from the far left of your setup, adjust accordingly). Now you will have an icon on your screen.
2. Press and hold the icon, select edit and you can replace the icon with any image you see fit. Now you have your "button". For example sake, lets say you have an icon/text that you want to have media stuff brought up.
3. Now on page 2, which should be blank (no icon), you will want to make the same 'jump to page icon' again, this time in a color of your choice, so that it looks "selected." Obviously this means you will have to edit/color your image/text as you see fit. I colored my "media" icon text, the color blue for example.
4. Next up, now that you have a colored icon on screen 2, making it look selected, is to fill up screen 2 with media stuff. You can use the images he uses, or just widgets already in your phone, or the above glaeja app that looks like it can be useful here. Your widget can be text that has click actions, that open up apps etc. It looks like the OP has placed the arrow icon on this page as well as to give it more of a this is what you selected look. The options are endless.
So then you just repeat that process with icons on screen #1 that jump to the other pages of you phone, that have been edited to have the content on them you're going for. It's painstaking, but hopefully I've made a visual for you that sheds light on what is going on and once you grasp that, you can make anything.
Very creative work by the OP here, just wanted to share my thoughts for the last couple posters that are having a hard time. I can make a tutorial if necessary. :good:

Essentially, you are going to create all of your screens to have the 5 "button" vertical layout (or however you want it to be, 4 buttons, 8, etc). Your main screen, they will be all white it color (again whatever color you choose) and swipe one screen to right, have the same 5 buttons vertical, but the one icon you want to make look "selected" have it yellow, in this instance and also on that screen would be the corresponding widget with the images and icons/text you want to look like it opened. How this works it when setting launcher to no scroll on wallpaper, and setting the button as a widget action to turn to page '2', it flings the screens to screen 2, where one icon is "selected" and there is different content on the screen (the widget, ie looking like it opened a menu). search on youtube for tabbed setup for android and you'll see setups alike.

This mod will turn ON data_writeback for all 3 partitions - system, data and cache. This will drastically improve I/O performance (mostly on write operations) at the expense of file system integrity in certain situations, like unexpected system shutdown. The risk is not extreme, but still bigger then regular. Use this to improve your system performance, but you flash it at your own risk!

Known Bugs for VZW Safestrap Version:
Signal Bars won't Show. Still get 4g but wont show Strength. Theres apps available if you must know in the the Playstore.
In Aroma Installer Avoid the Material Design Theme Choice or the Alternate Dialer Theme choice and the System Note 4 Upgrade choice in the options menu - might work but usually these choices result in a stalled boot
If ROM doesn't boot within 8 Minutes (yes it takes a long time inital boot up!) then try reinstalling with less options!

Thanks a bunch Sac!
Amazing!!!! you're the man!
Something that I noticed with the APN, at the end has an option called "Bearer" that you have to select LTE in order to get data, maybe sounds dumb, but I was getting crazy asking myself why I didn't have data :laugh:
Thank you so so so much SAC! This is amazing ROM and its smoother than the V4.
Pretty impressive port/rom , i did notice that some selected stuff from aroma does really select though, like when i click the 0% transparent mod, it still installs it, or some apps I unchecked so it doesnt install, but it still installs, but no big deal, i can easily delete those , i was also having MMS issues, not sure if its because im on the L720T, im currently working on a T version tho so amma report back if i get things working on this side
Can't wait to try it out when I get home.
Did anyone try to edit the build.prop with the correct phone name/model to try to fix the visual voice mail. This is what I had to do on other ports I've tried to make it work.
I dirty flashed this on top of stock OA3. Boot loop after first reboot. Fixed by a factory reset in TWRP. Up and running now. I'm glad Spark wheel is still here.
Antutu score （tested 3 times）: 30577/30188/29992. The score seems lower than stock.
I think the exchange / email app might have some issues with it. I posted the problem in the Q&As thread but I wanted to make sure Sacs knew of this bug and if others had the same problem. After having it request "The server outlook.office365.com must be able to remotely control some security features on your device. Continue?", and I click Ok, I get "Unfortunately email has stopped". So for now I am just using the Outlook app for my work email, but sadly it doesn't sync the calendar and contacts to the native android apps, but other than that the ROM is working great, so far battery life is just as good as Sac's other ROMs.

Edit-reporting back after doing a rebuild on the L720T, so far edited the build.prop to match the T, edited the framework.res.apk/eri.xml to match our stock, got MMS working, I also switched to our stock kernel, just for stability reasons, I love KT but im very cautious with the T version, so far I got a pretty stable build with network fully funtioning, can update PRL/Profile, so consider me a happy camper , thanks again to the original dev, sacs & who ever contributed
Only thing is that I still cant fogure out how to turn off the transparent mod, I think its causing some checkboxes via settings to be missing, so theirs alot of blind settings to miss & hit with

Guess you mean to decompile framework.res.apk then do the mod? Mind sharing your modded build.prop, framework.res.apk, and a link to stock kernel? TIA!

Hello! I've been going around XDA looking for everything I can get to get as close as possible to Samsung's One UI, the new design language to be released alongside the Android Pie update. As most Samsung users may know the beta for Android Pie and One UI has been released for the Galaxy S9 and S9+, but not for any of the 8 models. Because of this I went on a search to skin my UI to the point that it might as well be One UI. (Aside from all the apps, unfortunately.)
I'm going to make a list including links to everything I've used to get to this point.
Before we get started, to install most of these leak apps, you'll need App Cloner, which is unavailable in the Play Store, so I've provided a download for the App Cloner I have. After installing this, we can get to the interesting stuff.
A reminder that all of this requires NO ROOT.

Here's the App Cloner link.
Mod Edit: Link removed
First off, we've got the most obvious (and easiest) one. Samsung Experience Home 10. This one just requires an app cloner install, fortunately though, XDA has already done that for us right here https://www-xda--developers-com.cdn....com/download-samsung-experience-10-launcher/
A big thanks to them for getting the cloning process over with. After downloading the apk file they've provided simply install it, clear the cache/data and set it as the default launcher. You should end up with something like the screenshots. I recommend the Home Screen Grid to be set to 4x6, and the App Screen Grid to whatever you like. I kept it large to have less pages to go through when searching for apps. I set the grid to 4x6 to further match the render from the One UI apps section on the samsung website.

Is there anyway to import your Home Screen setup from the old Samsung Experience?
Now we have the clock tweaks. This one will require substratum, so if you'd rather not dive into that stuff then feel free to skip this one. Substratum is free but Andromeda is paid so I've included my Andromeda apk.
The first one we'll want is called clock tweaks by @AL_IRAQI. Head over to this page to download it. https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/themes-apps/mod-center-left-clock-o-t3614824/
You'll want to select and install Left Clock under clock placement in System UI. This will give us the clock on the top left in the status bar, rather than the top right. The next tweak we'll need is called System Mods by Draco. In addition to what we'll be using this tweak offers various other changes, so I suggest you check some of those other ones out. You can get that here. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=substratum.draco.systemmods You'll want to install Remove Status Clock AM PM under System UI to remove the AM/PM next to the time. This one is purely optional, but it matches better the One UI render.
A trick I learned from another member named @dj_iiml is to uninstall all tweaks before rebooting as instructed, and then reinstalling them. Reboot after this and the overlays will stay even after a reboot. I also got the clock tweaks info from his thread here https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-8/themes/note-8-one-ui-look-how-to-t3867346

Unfortunately, I don't think so. Simply because the system doesn't see them as the same apps. I'll look into it and see what I can do.
Let's move on now to Pie system apps. Email, Calculator, Notes, Samsung Browser, Samsung Health and weather are the only ones I've gotten to work besides the launcher. Email, Calculator, Notes, Samsung Health, and the browser can all be installed from apkmirror, but the weather app needs to be downloaded from a ported dump and cloned. https://mega.nz/#F!j5pGSa4Z!wmDI6Ozacrq4yNBl4WlNgQ This is a link to the entire dump, if you want to experiment with other apps, otherwise https://mega.nz/#F!j5pGSa4Z!wmDI6Ozacrq4yNBl4WlNgQ!2th2TALZ is a link to the Weather app only. Just press open in browser to access them. Once you've downloaded the weather app, clone it in App Cloner, install it, and then manually allow all the permissions via settings, you CAN'T allow permissions through the app itself. You can then add a widget to the home screen. It will be the second weather option, because you'll have 2 weather apps. Credits to @corsicanu for the ported files, their original post is here https://forum-xda--developers-com.c...sung-pie-leaked-apps-ported-to-t3856098/page1
Finally we'll apply all the Good Lock 2018 changes. First you'll need Good Lock 2018 from Galaxy Apps. Once you have it downloaded there are 2 apps you'll need to download from inside the app. TaskChanger & LockStar.
First we'll use LockStar to edit the lockscreen. Pick any background you like, and any layout you like, because we'll be changing the layout in a bit. Once you have everything you want, including the clock, you'll want to tap Edit at the top right and arrange the clock and notification bubble like the screenshot below. After you've done this select the plus icon at the bottom right/left of the lock screen and pick what apps you want to be accessible from the lockscreen. Once you've done all this, go ahead and save & apply the lockscreen.
Now we'll move to TaskChanger. Switch it to 'In Use' and then select the scroll effect. I chose linear, but you can pick whichever one you like. Now switch 'Blur Background Effect' on. Now you're all set. You've finally gotten as close to Pie as possible before it's official release. If anyone has any suggestions for other apps or changes to make it even closer to One UI then write it in a reply. In my next post I'll write more optional, less important features that don't get you too much closer to One UI. Thanks for reading this thread and I hope all went well,
Cheers,
RSLPride
LESS IMPORTANT TWEAKS
ClockFace - Good Lock 2018
Clockface provides a few more options for the clocks on the Always On Display and lockscreen. None of them are the stock One UI clocks, but you might find them a little more similar to the One UI clocks.
One Handed Operation + - Galaxy Apps
One handed operation + provides gesture navigation, a feature that will be in One UI. The only problem? The bars are on the sides. This is the only reason I've included this in less important tweaks. In One UI the bars will be on the bottom of the screen, replacing the Navigation Bar.
Battery Percentage - Settings
In setting you can turn off the battery percentage under Display > Status Bar in Settings. It gives a cleaner Status Bar look, but it isn't required.
Search Bar - Google
Make sure you have the latest beta for the Google App installed, then go to the more tab in the app and select 'Customize Widget' select the color palette and then select the Black G on top of white. Then go back and select what looks to be a multi-colored water droplet, and then move the slider all the way to the left or to See Through. This will give your Google Search Bar on the home screen a more One UI look, but it isn't needed to sell the look.
