[Q] getting rid of default LG things and customizing

Hi guys, I've got this p990 as my first android phone.
Years passed customizing WM... well air needed to be freshened!
Anyway down to my "problems"
A)
I hate the LG lockscreen, but I found no way to go back to default.
Also since I installed GO SMS PRO, received sms notifications continue to appear on it even after reading messages.
So I installed FlyScreen but don't like it that much.
Installed WidgetLocker and that suits me better, but I can't find any notification widget, something like a transparent overlay with the relevant info.
Maybe customizable. I've seen something like that in the Widgetlocker Themes, but even downloading theme doesn't fetch the widgets though.
Using android sliding bars for everything is really horrible.
B) how can I change the system icons (battery,wifi,etc)?
It's rooted, but I'm still running stock. Tried a Cyano nighlty but it didn't boot so I reverted to stock.
C) using GO SMS Pro, why do I have to select it as default on every reboot?
D) using ExtendedControls, reboot doesn't work although it got root permission. It gets stuck on the waiting window, system still works ok (I can go to home, and do everything). Who should I ask?
On a side note: since this phone runs on a tegra2, what would be the problem in flashing an honeycomb rom like asus transformer's?

Two niggling issues for new Experia user

Hi
Just flipped Samsung for ExperiaZ1 and I am finding my way but two initial frustrating glitches :
1. Am i right in saying i cannot reduce image size below 2mb ? That is annoying as I like to email multiple smaller resolution images ( 650kb etc ) straight from my phone sometimes so i do not jam up the recipients inbox ??
1. No matter how hard i try i cannt set exdialer to be the defualt dialer app. i can set golauncher and opera browsers no worries but it just wont acceot the exdialer. it keeps asking me if i want to use stock or exdialer everytime i puch the phone icon. I have tried going into app manager and clearing/setting defaults there, have cleared cache, rebooted, delerted and reinstaled exdialer etc. nothing works. never had this issue with samsung. i can only assume three is a new relase of exdialer with a bug in it ?
thanks for any help you can give me
justin
Here is a third...
I use my Portable Hotspot function alot. I cannot seem to be able to add it as part of the quicklaunch menu in the notigication bar up top ?

Switching between apps

Hello.
Today, after update of apps on my galaxy tab s 10 lte, I did some research on just instaled updates, and suddendly, I got supprised, that switching between apps worked in other ways than always - on bottom of screen I got 3 icons on black background (just like here: aboveandroid.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/android-5.0-L-1.jpg]) and while swapping on that bottom I was switching between currently working apps
I don't have idea, how I got to that mode, and I don't know in which app I activated this mode, but it looks like somthing from andoid 5.0, which unplanned got to some app (on my tablet I have only applications from andoid market, from offical google profile). I have andoid 4.4.2 on my galaxy tab s
Have someone got the same mode? I liked it very much (it is much easier to switch between apps than standard button and choosing app), but I don't have idea how I got to it.
Can someone help?

Basic Menu options not selectable

Hi.
Problem with my note 5 (SM-N920T 5.1.1) that I cant seem to figure out... It all started with S note. I wanted to download the extension pack to be able to transpose notes into text. Hit more in the upper corner, more features, then extension pack. but for some reason when i hit the "extension pack" option it just flashes grey at me... every option on that screen actually. Of course scoured the internet and nothing but how tos and videos outlining those steps.
Now i said F-it as I unfortunately am one of the poor souls that fell victim to the penGate Scandal. I assumed it was something to do with the broken s-pen detection (my Spen itself is fully intact), finished my beer and went to bed.
couple days later I was at the t-mo store checking out the gear S2. Got it paired with my note 5 and wanted to see what the app selection was like. Got the prompt to download apps from my phone through the Sgear app... went to the app and the download applications link does the same thing!!!
Tried all the basics... restart phone, check unknown apps, anything I could think of... No luck.
Any ideas??? I cant seem to select options to download Samsung or OEM approved downloads...

hi ,
Firstly ,to download from ( as you put it) "Samsung or OEM approved downloads..." you have to register your device ,re "Samsung Account" and also sign into Samsung apps store ... etc ..? , to download ( Same procedure, as if you want to download from eg . Google Play store ?)
You did not mentioned this in your post above ..?
secondly,
I had an issue on my old Note 4 ,where i had settings "grayed out", but yes it was a bug in Rom . Yes ,I fixed it"temporary " by re flashing stock Rom ..only to appear later again !!!
Thirdly ,
you do not state if your device is rooted or stock Rom ..etc ? Reason why ,is ,
if its a bug in Rom ,how about/the possibility of re flashing your correct stock Rom ..to see if its fixes issue ?
Good luck

hi, just on a side note, Lux" broke "my app installs, on my Note 4 and Note5. Unknowingly, spend hours trying to figure out, why i could not sideload an app.. Yes then i found Lux was the culprit.!
I am using Velis for quite some time now. Have not found any issues so far with Velis. Yes, i agree Lux can also cause issues..
Good luck

Stock firmware, no rom. Not rooted yet.
OK it was not having the Samsung Galaxy apps application installed on my phone. Samsung acct was linked but not having the physical Galaxy apps app was causing this. I Apparently some providers like tmo us Remove some factory installed apps. I had a hell of a time finding it to download, here is the link in case anyone wants it for usa
apps.samsung.com/jupiter/mw/apk_en.as?COUNTRY_CODE=USA
Would of been nice to receive a pop up or notification to install this to be able to use the Extra functionality... No idea why this essential app was removed. Corporate bs if you ask me.
Thanks

If one was to load all of Google's apps (Dialer, launcher, keyboard, clock etc), then disable the Samsung apps using ADB, and install a Pixel theme, the phone would be almost AOSP and the camera would still work great.
