So I updated all of the mods I use in my ROM for the new 2.17.651.5 base. I thought it might be helpful to others if I put them all in one place. Most of these mods were made using threads by SteelH and others who actually tell you how these things are done. If anyone wants to know how a certain mod is made (of those listed below), PM me or post and I'll explain how I did it.
Flash these at your own risk (good idea to make a backup of /system and /data before flashing).
The mods in this post are for deodex ROMs.
You can find mods for odex ROMs here. Thanks Rydah805!
7in1_Reboot_2.17.651.5.zip adds Power menu and reboot options (not sure if hot restart works correctly).
Download DEODEX
HDR_Panorama_2.17.651.5.zip adds HDR and Panorama modes to HTCCamera.
Download DEODEX
MMSSize_SMSBackup_SMSSecureBox_2.17.651.5.zip adds the mirror entry back to the app drawer, adds 1M, 2M, 5M MMS, adds SMS backup option, and SMS Secure Box option. The MMS size should be flashable to make it work thanks to Vin255764. The mirror app will still require you to place default.xml from the flashable .zip into /system/customize/MNS/ of your ROM before you flash your ROM. I'll try to find how to add the mirror app to a current ROM. If you really want all of these features and know how to backup/restore your stuff, just clear /data after flashing the .zip and it should work ok from my limited understanding (I just make my own ROMs ).
Download DEODEX
RemoveUSBDebugging_2.17.651.5.zip removes the USB debugging icon.
Download DEODEX
RoamOnlyOption_2.17.651.5.zip adds Roam Only under Settings-Wireless&Networks-Mobile Network Settings-Roaming.
Download DEODEX
SprintHotSpotHack_2.17.651.5.zip changes two 0's to 1's so you can use this without paying for it.
Download DEODEX
SystemUI_mods_2.17.651.5.zip removes GPS recticle, removes recent apps from pulldown, changes to display 3G/1x properly, and adds extended quick settings.
Download DEODEX
SystemUI_mods_WithRecentApps_2.17.651.5.zip is the same as above without recent apps removed.
Download DEODEX
Please post if something doesn't work and ALSO if things do work .
Thanks to everyone who has figured out how to do these mods and Brut.all for making apktool so easy to use.

thank you! i've come to rely on roam only now that i spend part of my day in a spotty sprint area.
How hard would it be for you to make that systemui.apk but with recent apps?
Might be silly question but I'm guessing it doesn't matter whether I'm using an odex or deodex version of .5 right? I can flash these on either one? Haven't quite figured out the odex/deodex thing but I believe that only affects themes. Thanks

Sorry, these are all deodex. I'll update OP. I think if you delete the .odex and use the deodex, it may work (but I don't know to be honest).
Thanks for these mods and your quick response!!! Any chance for odex versions? My phone seems to really like odex roms for some reason. Probably placebo but what can ya do. If not, no biggy. Just awesome to have great devs here sharing their hard work! Mucho appreciated

Not very. Just change a 2 to a 0 in StatusBarFlag.smali inside SystemUI.apk. Added to original post as SystemUI_mods_WithRecentApps_2.17.651.5.zip.

I can probably do that since the decompiled .smali's are all the same. I'll try to do it some time when I'm bored .

so flashing "MMSSize_SMSBackup_SMSSecureBox_2.17.651.5.zip" alone will give me the option to have up to a 5mp mms?
i still see 300k,600k,1m even after flashing

It's supposed to, but I may have messed something up. Where is the option at? I can't seem to find it at the moment .
edit - I found the setting. Mine shows 1M, 2M, and 5M. I'll look at the .zip and try to get it fixed.
edit #2 - I had an error in the updater scripts to set the permissions. They should all be fixed and you can flash again or just fix permissions on \system\customize\default.xml and \system\app\Mms.apk with a root file explorer.

That's the xml then. I'm pretty sure it's probably a permissions issue. As you have it now, the 300k will correspond to 1m, 600k to 2m, and 1m to 5m. I'll try to test it more tomorrow (has it worked for anyone else?).
i flashed the mms zip and the sizes dont change (which i dont care about lol) and i also cannot get the mirror app to show up in my app drawer. how do i fix it?
if its not too much trouble could you make a separate zip that just adds the mirror app to the app drawer??
I flashed the boot menu, HDR/pan cam,sysUI with recent apps,MMS on stock ROM with latest updates with twrp2.0 recovery and none of the 4 worked....
Thanks. They all seem to work great. Test them tomorrow. Actually came back to 2.17.651.2 from fresh 4.1 just to try these.
Flashed them all at once. Smooth
It's so late, I only wish I had some espresso ....

De-odex: Apk files have respective odexes that devs use to supposedly save space. Deodexing means you convert it back to a .dex file and put it back inside the apk. This allows you to easily replace files (not having to worry about odexes), but the main point was to deodex ‘services.jar’ so that you can change all text to different colors (such as the clock color to white) and to deodex services.jar, you need to deodex everything. Deodexing will create longer boot times, but should be equal after that and it gives you the ability to make changes otherwise impossible to do.
Odexed roms are smaller, and have a faster boot time. The only problem with them is they're harder to theme / mod. De-odexed roms are slightly larger, and boot slower, but you cam mod the crap put of em. Just about all themed roms are deodexed. But not all. We're starting to see some odexed roms with themeing included. Not really sure how this is accomplished, but I'm still learning the ropes of modding.

*Updated to Sensation fingerprint*
Can't download or even play certain apps or games such as Gameloft's N.O.V.A.3?
Follow the below steps to make your HTC ETO 4G LTE disguise itself as a HTC Sensation to get the best of the Google Play Store.
Tested working on stock ROM with Root and SU.
Modern Combat 3, N.O.V.A. 3 tested to work perfectly. All other Gameloft games should work and show up in market.
Please note, if you have a custom ROM, you probably do not want to use this. It will overwrite your ROM creator's settings. It will probably work, but it will take away certain features of their build.prop tweaks.
Users are saying that this kills Google Wallet. I cannot confirm this since I don't use it. Use at your own risk. Please update us if it does or not.
You must be rooted!
BACKUP YOUR CURRENT BUILD.PROP
1. Clear Google Play Store Data (Settings, Apps, All, Google Play Store, Clear Data)
2. Download the build.prop I have attached at the end of this post.
3. Unzip it
4. Use a file explorer such as ES File Explorer and navigate up to /system
5. Copy and paste it over your current build.prop in/system
6. Reboot phone
Clear as mud
*Edit*
Removed manual way to update (Hardcore DIY'ers can Google it)
Updated build.prop to HTC Sensation (pyramid). Apps were showing up before with the Galaxy SII build.prop changes, but downloaded files weren't compatible with our phone. Sensation makes for a better fingerprint.
Thanks for this! Only one thing:
People need to understand that if they're not on the stock ROM (that this build.prop is based off of) that they are risking losing whatever modifications their ROM devs added into build.prop.
Different devs do different things in there....blindly replacing your ROM's build.prop is usually a bad idea.

True... which is why it's important to manually make the change to the build.prop on your rom. Takes a little work, but worth it.
If you follow these instructions, you cant mess it up.

Meaning anything that's not stock. Viper, PokeROM, Fresh, whatever.
Each developer tends to make their own build.prop edits. If you just make the changes to the stock build.prop that the OP attached and you're running any custom ROM you're overwriting whatever they may have done. Unless your Dev puts the change into his/her ROM, or someone makes a flashable zip for you, for your ROM, just grabbing a random build.prop and using it because it has the edits you want is a bad idea.
I'm using Joelz9614 rom just manually edit. A safe rule is never paste over the prop when you can do the edits yourself if you're not sure if it's modded

OPen the zip for the Fresh ROM, go to /system and pull out build.prop. Push that to your phone, and change the permissions.
Or, flash Fresh over your current installation without wiping.
You could push the original build.prop to your phone from the Rom you are using or reflash

You could reflash your ROM or ask the dev for this build.prop file to paste over your corrupted one.
it was a damn brick and i could even get to recovery screen... i did volume down and power and the bottom buttons would flash and then finally stopped i then press volume down and power and magiclly i got to the bootloader then the recovery and reflasheed
You removed the changes that needed to be made manually? I applied the Samsung changes and now would like to apply the new sensation changes. I guess I'll dig through the build.prop and check which lines are different
To the OP, why would you remove the changes to the file that can easily be done manually??? It's a simple mod that can be done. Users NOT in the know will replace their their file with yours, only to end up with a mess because they are on a different rom that has somewhat different parameters than what's in your attachment.

MAJOR UPDATE June 26th:
All posted links were down already. Sorry guys. I now signed up for some REAL web hosting as it seems with all "free" hosting and services you really get what you pay for. I got an unlimited bandwidth server and am planning on letting other devs host their work, too.
I am not "asking" for money but like all other devs on here I'm doing this out of passion for our device(s), I'm a crackflasher myself I did put a "donate to me" button above my avatar on the left for the generous ones amongst you who have been asking for a way to donate. A cold beer or a mountain dew does help when figuring things out LOL!!!
LINKS ARE UP - Now with 100mbit connection.
The ROM file will stay untouched, not adding any mods into the ROM itself. All mods are CWM flashable ZIPs in hopes that everyone can find and install what they like
The ROM itself:
Electron_stock_deodexed_zipaligned_UCLF5.zip
Sorry for n00bin' and forgetting the MD5 sum Here it is: md5sum=04EF83B5FA66F96DEFA5AC2F5593B012
CRT-OFF animation for this ROM:
Electron_TetherHack+crt-anim.zip
UCLF5 Modem files (AT&T LTE) standalone CWM flashable ZIP (the modem is included in the ROM! This is only for people who want to revert from T-Mo modems or to use this modem on a different Rom!):
Electron_UCLF5_Modem.zip
NEW: Completely redone 15Toggle-Mod with blue battery and working USB + No more garbled text on startup!
Electron_UCLF5_15toggle_blueBatt.zip
Revert 15 toggles back to stock with green battery and stock toggles:
Electron_UCLF5_15toggle_revert.zip
NEW: The BLOAT all zipped up for whoever wants to drop one or the other of the included APK's into the /system/app dir. The ZIP contains the first set of apps mentioned in the "what had been axed" section.
BLOAT.zip
NEW: And here comes the unsecured kernel with init.d support (thanks Flappjaxxx!!!)
Flapp_UCLF5_unsecuredKernel.zip
And here the revert in case anyone needs to go back to STOCK UCLF5 Kernel
Flapp_UCLF5_unsecuredKernel_revert.zip
Contacts app with Yellow pages BLOAT removed!
Flapp_Contacts_UCLF5-NoYP.zip
S-Voice with all needed libs (speech output works!):
Electron_SVoice_UCLF5.zip
-- original post -----------------------
In honor of flapp's tremendous work to always bring us a solid, stable base ROM and after reading the sad news last night, I decided to take on the task and learn how to deodex, zipalign and debloat a ROM.
So here it is. Fresh out of the oven. Stock UCLF5 with light debloating (only the crazy **** gone) and no optimizations but the mandatory pre-root, deodex, zipalign and of course my good old tethering hack (with bluetooth tethering added) baked right in.
SORRY my little test server uplink is way too slow for this. Didn't expect this kind of traffic LOL. Yes I will find a faster hosting for ROMs
Hope I was able to give back to the community with this. It was a bumpy (at first) but very interesting ride to teach myself all this and in the end make it work!
Of course the usual blabla applies: I tried my best, it works for me. It's very unlikely that anything can be damaged, still I can NOT be held responsible for ANYTHING.
Don't forget to wipe, clear caches etc. no matter what ROM you're coming from!
Yes, I am still fairly "new" as an active member and do appreciate every use of the "thanks" button :-D
What has been axed (debloated)?

I would venture to say this is not the place for this. This is a request to port stuff over from another ROM - and doesn't have anything to do with the fine work done to make a flashable version of the i717 uclf5.
Make the request, but do it in one of the other forums.
THANK YOU electron73 for your hard work!
We definitely need a mirror or a torrent for this! It's extremely slow to download! Server overload! LOL
Does the blue battery and fifteen toggle work on the stock UCLF5? Reason I ask is cause I flashed the stock leak through Odin yesterday and set up phone.

I think its an improvement. I get an average of two bars higher on the cm9 rom with this modem and the download speed seems faster but I can't say for sure for sure.
When the modem download is done I'll throw up a mirror. Won't be able to help on the ROM though.
15 toggle from LE2 works on LF5 too!
i just flashed it!
if you on stock odex rom, first rename system.odex to system.txt then flash
All credit goes to nygfan760 for his Slick Rom that included these apps. I wanted to stick with The Base, but couldn't resist Emoji and Screen-off playback for YouTube so I pulled these .apks.
Just flash the zip in CWM after making a nandroid
LGBrowser, LGMms3, and YouTube will be replaced.
This works on my phone (Base .7.3)
Works on Stock Odexed ROM (thanks BloodBaron)

All credit goes to nygfan760 for his Slick Rom that included these apps. I wanted to stick with The Base, but couldn't resist Emoji and Screen-off playback for YouTube so I pulled these .apks. The stock mms app is called LGMms.apk but no need to rename Mms.apk, leave it be.
Not sure how to go about this for an odexed system.
To install in a terminal:
$su
$mount -o remount,rw /system
$mv /system/app/[APP] /system/app/[APP].bak
$cp /mnt/sdcard/[AOSP APP] /system/app/
Then reboot. :good:

Stock mms is actually LGMms3.apk.
And I've HEARD (can't confirm myself) that you can install them on an odexed ROM and just delete the xx.odex file that corresponds with the .apk from /system/app. So to install the browser just delete browser.odex from /system/app (assuming it is just called browser.apk).
You then reboot.
And may have to clear both caches.
Sorry for the noob question, but I've never installed anything via terminal. Can't you just install these apk's the way you'd install any other sideloaded apk? Do you have to use the terminal?

No thats just how I did, do it however you feel comfortable with. Personally I've never done the sideload method.
EDIT: Yeah I just googled what sideload means lol, no I wasnt able to install these with the package installer, as they were system apps. Maybe I'll make an update.zip when I get home from work.
AOSP apps were from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1728308
and YouTube from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1529715
Credit them too lol

After reading on those threads, I see how to install them with Root Explorer rather than the terminal method. Whew, I'd rather deal with a GUI then something where one typo can leave you scratching your head or worse.

Lol I suppose you're right, the terminal way isnt very intuitive.
I've been using the AOSP SMS app from Slick ROM for a couple days now. One thing that I miss from stock is that it doesn't wake the screen when a text is received and it doesn't popup to reply.

The zip I just uploaded deletes xx.odex as well so I suspect it will work, but hard to know.
Is there a version of AOSP SMS that has the dark theme?

I can make one when I get home from work today, shouldn't be too hard.
What colors you guys thinking? I was thinking a cm-ish holo theme.

Anyway to port this over http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1745830.
It has quick emoji, quick reply, different vibrate options, and an awesome holo theme. Unfortunately it's for Jellybean though. Maybe something is portable for ICS though.
Just as I was about to perfect my version's colors and whatnot, I found this cm9 one which works fine on our phones Enjoy.

Install is failing for me on the holomms.apk.
Edit: even though I am getting install failed, it seemed to install anyway. I notice this is a much older version of MMS. The holo version lacks the "original timestamp" feature which I use considerably due to being in a lot of service dead spots during my day. Any chance on the original plan of theming the first apk? No biggie either way
Here is a HotSpot mod for NK4 devices. I did the smali edits from memory and put this together in 10 minutes so please let me know if there are any issues. It is working on my device but make a backup. Requires busybox installed for the installer.
This is for ODEXED ROMS! This is NOT DEODEXED! Don't yell at me if you can't read
Added seperate Extended Boot Menu Mod. Same rules apply.
Could you make one for the NKD build if I send you the needed file's?
The smali edits would be easy enough, However, I'm not sure how to 'odex' it and how things are affected since ART is implemented in the latest version replacing the Dalvik cache.
Short answer. I don't know....
I guess I need to install it at some point and figure out how it works
There's been quite a few downloads and no feedback whatsoever so I'll assume the mods are working?

Sorry about that townsenk. I flashed it on my S5 yesterday evening for the boot menu zip. Works like a champ as always. Thank you very much for what you do!

Hi townsenk;
I thin the majority of users\downloaders are on tdunham's stock 4.4.4 and deodex. At least that is my case. I'm trying to get hotstpot working and have been thus far unsuccessful. If you feel like making a Deodex version I will definitely be on the top of the list for a test. Galaxy tools have been unable to fix my issue. I am able to advertise the hotspot put no devices can connect. They hang on the obtaining IP screen.

Try this. This is completely untested and probably not ready for public consumption!
Make sure you have a backup of your services.jar and have a fire extinguisher handy...
What about extended reboot for deodexed ☺ please
Extended reboot is in the tdunham OP

I can deodex the extended reboot mod if needed, provided I get some feedback that the deodexed hotspot version is even working. Like I said, I have no easy way to test deodexed versions and rely on simple comments like "It's Working" or "You blew up my Phone You Jerk!"

Flashed and cleared cache. Broke my wifi. I get authentication error when trying to connect to an access point now.
Hotspot has same issue trying to assign IP. I didn't make a backup of just the services.jar (yea, know I should have). Instead just restoring a full backup with TWRP,
:EDIT: The restore did not fix the authentication error. After restore, I simply did the turn off wifi and data, turn on Airplane mode, Turn back on Wifi and that fixed it so I probably could have done that in the first place. I wanted to confirm this backup though so happy since it was a full modem\EFS (everything checked) backup.
Thank you for trying.

Are you using Xposed, Custom kernel or any mods or xml edits that may be affecting this?
The reason I ask is that the fact that an ip address is not getting assigned should not be a side affect of the mod regardless of it being odexed or deodexed. I also had no success in using the one click hotspot app. (which is what prompted me to do the mod in the first place). I also restored the system once it failed because I felt it may have left some undesired edits behind. The only real way would be to do the mod on a clean deodexed install. I'm not asking you to do this because I know it's a pain. I may attempt this in the next day or so depending on the feedback I get in the meantime.
EDIT: User miked63017 is testing a different way to do the hotspot mod in a recent post. You may consider trying that. he may also have more insight on your specific issue.

I am now using a custom kernel but did try it with the stock kernel as well. It is weird that I don't get a complain from the Hotspot app but instead only get an issue with devices trying to connect. Maybe I'll try with a clean install over the weekend to see what happens.
No exposed. on tdunham's 4.4.4
Hotspot worked perfectly for me. But now on deodexed rom

Don't wanna hijack the thread, but if there isn't a deodexed version of the mod, the app I have in the themes and apps section under sprint s5 should work.
