I'm coming from an S3 where I had Paranoid Android installed. I really miss the stock Android feel. Is there any ROM available for the US LTE T-Mobile variant with a locked bootloader that is similar to stock or are there Xposed modules that can get it there?
I tried the Xposed module that is supposed to turn your Xperia QuickSettings into an AOSP style, but it just caused the systemUI to crash. I can't remember the name.
Thus far I've installed Nova Launcher and used an Xposed module to display "L"-style navigation buttons. If I could change the systemUI, I'd be satisfied.
Thanks for the help.

Thanks AndroidTweaker. I've actually already gotten that far. Any other recommendations to get a more AOSP experience?

that xposed aosp quick settings won't work with KitKat.
Just received my brand new Z3,but already feeling the itch for some customization.
Someone already tried playing around with xposed?
It is fully working or at least some features?
Thanks
After rooting/bootloader unlocking the phone, I installed Xposed. It works well. I use the following:
App Settings - I made systemUI (and most of my non-sony apps) 240 dpi.
GravityBox (smaller nav bar, orange icons, replacement battery, AM/PM removal, 3 dot on nav bar right, search on nav bar left.
Tinted Status bar
Xperia Xposed - installed but I decided not to use anything
Please note, per conversations on general, unlocking the bootloader will irreversibly worsen the camera's low-light picture quality and kill native miracasting/chromecasting ability linked to Sony's DRM keys
I'm using tons of Xposed modules and I couldn't live without it. It's one of the greatest pieces of software ever written and I'll stay away from Android L until Xposed works on it. i never felt the urge to use CM or another rom since I'm using Xposed, GravityBox alone is such a mighty module that it replaces a plethora of third party rom features.
It's really hard to live without Xposed after having it for so long on my Moto X. I'm just not willing to lose the camera quality by unlocking the BL. Of course, there are other things I'm itching to do as well with root (like freezing and deleting lots of useless apps that suck battery!)
I am using xposed with
- xstana module
- tinted status bar
- gravity box
Everything works perfectly!

I don't mind losing some of the camera quality either, I believe that people will either find a way to reverse the process, or make something better.
I'm just waiting till I can backup my TA partition.

I istalled Xposed and run xled, xquiet hours and cyan lock screen the lose of the cameras low light abilty is not a big problem i use camera fv5 and change the iso settings
So no way in hell to get root without unlocking the bootloader?
i was using pie controls from gravitybox with navbar disabled, but i found out that pie doesn't appear when using camera with physical button with phone in standby.... anyone can confirm this?
I use XBlast and Xposed LED Control.
Both works fine. What does NOT work is GravityBox. But why? Can someone help me?
When trying to start it, it says "GravityBox System Framework does not answer" in german. in english perhaps its something like "cant retrieve System Framework data" or something like that.
It doesn matter how often i try, always the same error message

You need to enable it in Module and restart phone. After that you can do what you want! In Download section, you can find more module with search filter by typing: xperia

I think gravity Box can not handle sonys ui. Had it before on lg g2 stock rom. Just some features worked. Keep in mind that gb is actually for vanilla kitkat(aosp,maybe cm)
GB worked fine for me on the Z1C, but eventually some features require a deodexed rom. I've always been using RomAur.

I did not mean you have to enable xposed installer. I said: you have to enable GravityKK module by tick the box, do nothing more, restart the phone first. After that you can config without any framework message error!
xposed works great
I using xposed for remote play (ps4)
and its workign great!

Yes and as i said, i used Xposed before. what i want to say with that is : I know how Xposed works and how to use it. I know that you have to "activate" modules with the checkbox.
still, GB won't work.
Hi guys,
this is a guide how you can enable double tap to wake and wake gestures (Camera, Music,..., or custom apps) on your P9 Lite.
Somehow Huawei left the options in the system root, but made in invisible in the settings (same with many other Huawei devices). This is the same method others used for the P9.
All you need is:
-rooted device
(for rooting my device I followed this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p9lite/how-to/guide-unlock-bootloader-twrp-root-t3405701
the only thing I did different for getting SU working, was that I installed the root with the SRK-Tool and then I installed the mentioned SU-Update zip file)
-A file explorer with root access
-text editor app (I used the QuickEdit from the Playstore)
Even if this workaround worked 100% and without any problems on my device (rooted VNS-L31 on B100), your doing it on your own risk!
Step 1: Enter the file explorer and go to the root directory. Open the system folder and look for the build.prop file.
Step 2: Open the build.prop with the texteditor and search for the line ro.config.hw_easywakeup=false, now change the "false" into a "true" and save/exit the file. Just open it a again to ensure the entry has been realy changed and saved.
Step 3: Now go to the directory system/emui/base/xml, ther you open the file hw_easywakeupmotion_config.xml with the editor.
Step 4: Search for the line "EasyWakeupMotion name="Double_Touch" support="1" value="0" flag="0" keycode="131"" and change the value=0 into value=1. Again save and exit the file and ensure that it has been really changed.
Step 5: Restart your device and go into settings menu-->smart assistance-->motion controle. Now there are the options double tap and wake gestures available. You could also change the apps which are related to the different wake gestures. After activating it should be working right away. Otherwise do another restart and it should be good.
Hope everthing is working for you...I tested it now for some days and with some cases where I had to tap the display three times to wake up it worked flawlessly. There is also NO additional battery drain caused by the feature.
In addition it would be helpfull to mention which version of the phone you have, also if it's Asia or Europe etc.
Great job man
Strangely, doesn't work for me.
I can see the option and I have activated it but the phone does not wake up when tapping it

works, 8 times out of 10 ... and 'slow to answer you think you can do something? Meanwhile, thanks to good work
Thanks bro! This worked for me! All of your posts are useful! I got the phone yesterday updated to the latest version rooted it, Installed xposed but do you know a way to center the clock? I've tried to use GravityBox and Xblast Tools but none of the options works I rebooted the phone and still they don't do anything ugh.. I hope there will be a CM rom for this device and if you have anything else useful for this device like theming and stuff tell us! And also tell me what Xposed modules you use

Nice to here for the modding of status bar (also centering clock) I'm using the "flat style bar indicator". Which works for me. I tried the xposed version from wanam as well as the regular v86 and I experienced better performance and compatibility with the regular version. Important is to do a cache and dalvik wipe after installing new modules, reboot then might take some minutes but dont be scared
The features I'm using from gravity is on one side the setup for the navigation bar keys (you can set longpress, double press actions) and on the other side the volume to skip songs
I use "doubletaptosleep" for statusbar double tap to sleep^^
The vibration tuner for setting a shorter vibration duration. Because the notification buzz was a bit to much for my taste
and last but not least I have the flat style status bar, this module ensures that the symbols in the statusbar turn black when you have a white or light background. You also can change the navigationbar
So this is pretty much it. I attached two screenshots. I changed my homescreen to a pretty much IOS style...guess some of you might be botherd with that but I always wanted a IOS-Style phone with the android functionality.

Yes, unfortunatley it's not always working on a single double tap, but if you do a double double tap it works everytime. Couldn't figure out why its like that. Strangely the letter function is always working. Another addition is that you can enable the letter "O" as well by just activating it with value=1 and setting the "keycode=137".
The response time is, how I fear, untouchable. I guess it has something to do with cpu reaction time from standby. But I haven't seen a faster reaction by other phones which are officialy supporting this feature. But I will keep looking.

Well, DT2W is always a function that has to be supported by the kernel.
So maybe different phone versions do have different versions of the kernel.
Could you tell me which kernel version you are using? Mine is 3.10.90-g7bbea55 (May 15)
Maybe Huawei will give us an official DT2W support soon. Afaik they also enabled it late on the P8 with a firmware update :fingers-crossed:

My kernel is the 3.10.90-g9c133f1 (april 26th)....so its a different one. I hope so too, otherwise it would also make no sense to leave the coding in there rom because it only bloat it...Theres already a beta for the P9 with Android N. So lets hope for the best.
I have European version with same kernel as @Schlengge .
For me it works. Thank you @To_High !
Maybe you dont need double tap if we have fingerprint
works greate on L21 b120 rom , thanks

Is there the same way to activate camera RAW saving option?
What about raise to ear to answer can be enabled?

Nice tutorial, but in my case it doesn't work (VNSL31 Dual Sim European, Kernel 3.10.90-g424020b).
I deactivated fingerprint, but I couldn't deactivate the PIN unlock - tried to clear credentials, but I cannot change from PIN to "none".
Brilliant works perfect thanks for the guide!

I was running CM11 on my Nexus 5 for all that time and didn't liked the CM13 because the only Xposed Module that i use is not available in MM. it's Application Settings, it can make me launch apps above the lockscreen, and change the DPI as well! any alternatives?
yes I've already googled the question and i found 2 posts on Reddit, but all are pointing to the community version that available on XDA for Lollipop 5.1 and it does not work on MM! yes it boots up with out any boot loops but it does not work.
Is there any Xposed module alternative or even any way else?
Thanks.

Hello,
my 3T is still running OOS 3.5.4 (Marshmallow) because there is no Xposed for Nougat out (and probably will never be). Most of my Xposed modules can be covered by the additional functionality of custom roms. But what i would miss most is the per app customization of "App Settings" like DPI, force fullscreen, keep screen on, resident, language, etc.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/mod-app-settings-v1-9-2014-05-14-t2437377
Do you know a custom rom for the 3T which offers similar per app settings?
no rom with this functionality?
???
I'm using Sultans CM13 with xposed and appsettings version 1.13
Currently I'm using OOS 3.5.4 with appsettings 1.13. But I want to update to a Nougat-rom. As Xposed is not working on Nougat, I'm looking for a rom with similar functions...
I got a dpi tile and I set fling right side swipe up to settings panel and set the dpi tile on bottom right so it's easy to switch allot of stuff. I thought mm was better cause of closed but nougat has everything it's far better.
is there really no custom rom with these functionalities?
Xposed killed custom ROMs
@deskjet390
what do you mean?
All of the built in customization development stopped as it was replaced with xposed modules. Someone needs to bring back paranoids built in per app DPI feature
No as the code for it was buggy as was all of PA code. So no rom developers will ever use it.
Anyone that says to use xposed over built in options are an idiot.
Only winzip wizards will tell you to use xposed. Real devs tell you not to use it at all and do not support its use.
