Blacked out MMS - LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769

I was messing around with a couple blacked out apps I had on my old VZW Galaxy Nexus.. forgot who made this and all that jazz.
So I'll just leave this here.
*******INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS********
This is all assuming you know the basics of /system/app/ manipulation!!
Using a root file explorer, navigate to /system/app/
Find LGMms.apk and LGMms.odex
Append .bak to those files so they read:
LGMms.apk.bak
LGMms.odex.bak
Copy MMS.apk over to /system/app/ and set permissions rw-r-r--
Reboot and that's it!
This has only been tested on LGP769BK (T-mobile USA)

***********
On a side note- I've been struggling to get the other apps to work that I have.
If anyone would like to use these apps and try to get them to work be my guest.
EDIT: I'd like to mention that all these apps were all AOSP apps. My concern is getting these to work on a Odex'd ROM like we have currently. I've tried pulling my whole /system/app/ and deodexing but that failed miserably. Regrettably my knowledge in that area is rather limited as I've been pampered by Nexus devices ><

I don't know which tool you used to deodex, but you probably need to change the bootclasspath to suit L9's stock apps. Bootclasspath specifies which framework files could be used by the apks. Some jars are included in the bootclasspath by default while others aren't, which explains why some apps deodex perfectly and others don't.
If you want to play it save include all framework files in the bootclasspath, because there is no punishment for including to many.

I didn't deodex anything, the apps I've provided are deodex'd and pulled from my old Galaxy Nexus which was. MMS and Email have worked fine for me- but nothing else.
I liked the MMS app but found a cooler app on the market called Sliding Messenger: http://goo.gl/SBTfD

well a basic theme is made up of 2 kinds of modifications.
1- changes to the images in the framework-res.apk, systemui.apk, and the com.htc.resource.apk
2- changes to .xml files withing those .apk files.
An easy place to start would be getting a program like photoshop, gimp, or paint.net and making changes to the images within those .apk. then seeing the changes on your device by pushing the edited framework back onto your phone.

i added photos above
and yea, thats basically what you do. (it tends to be time consuming)
.xml's are mostly for text colors.

[MOD][SENSE][AOSP][ICS]MIUI V4 Lockscreen for all ICS holo unlock roms

Howdy Lter's I've got a little treat for everyone.
Okay so this is pretty simple
what you need
archive manager [optional] (if you dont feel like recompiling apks via apkmanager etc (wont cover this here)
attached is a zip file with the images needed to pull of this modification.
so take the rom you want this mod on and extract framework-res.apk
place it in a folder, for things like this I usually put them on the desktop. so we'll name the folder senseframework
now make another folder, or download the attachment and extract
so now we have two folders senseframework and v4lock
open both folders side by side
here's the (not hard) but annoying part
in the sense framework folder after decompiling or extracting the apk navigate to res drawable hdmi xhdmi etc find the holo (white) lockscreen components, do note the files with in the zip may not exactly match in sense but it is easy enough to spot what is what, I search in explorer for lock and all the images needed to pull this off apear I believe. there may be the odd mms.png but when it's all in front t of you it's simple to spot. so now the renaming begins.{!DO NOT RENAME ANYTHING IN THE SENSE FRAMEWORKFOLDER OR AOSP!} the only renaming takes place in the miuilock folder. so yea you rename the miui images e.g. lock_phone.png in miui folder will be renamed to ic_phone_lock.png once youre done renaming the images in the miui folder you can then select all files in the folder and paste into the sense or aosp folder or drag and drop into the apk archive once thats all done the mod is basically done
I have not yet figured out the proper smali/xml edits need in ics to make some of the graphics found in the lockscreen on miui e.g. orange highlight etc
this is a little rough at the moment ill get around to posting screenshots soon
but basically you get the lock of miuiV4 on Aosp and Sense, for sense youll need to remove the htc lockscreen parts.
here are before and after shots

Dev's, modders hackers kangers feel free to use this in your roms all I ask is that you credit me
and to make things easier Ill be editing the images for the mod well renaming them to the proper names for sense 4.+ and aosp
reserved
I got this one............just in case
Thanks man, very cool mod and nice tutorial as well
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Awesome man. I have a special patch that may make this guide unnecessary though. It pushes images into compiled apks sort of like the villain Rom theme system, which unfortunately does not work on sense 4.1. Hit me up on gtalk if you want it...

Noob question of the day: Does this work with CM10 (or any other AOSP Jellybean ROM?)

[APP][MOD][DEODEXED] Message+PRIME.apk from CODIS (no MMS compression)

This is a deodexed version of the SMS apk from CODIS 1.1.1. I modified nothing in it, I just wanted to have the features it provided with a different, deodexed ROM, so I deodexed it.
It has MMS Compression disabled along with color icon (like a mini version of the actual app's icon) for the notification icon, rather than the default flat one.
You'll need to install this manually, overwriting the current Message+PRIME.apk located in /system/app/ (or optionally renaming the current one with a .bak after the ".apk" and then just pasting the modified one from this post) and make sure permissions are correct. Then, Reboot.
Definitely not a bad idea to wipe cache and davlik, either.
I may make a flashable zip at some point, just thought I'd share this as-is for anyone interested.
Thanks to chingy51o for permission to drop this, and team Mik for a great ROM and the changes for this apk in particular.

27 toggles using terminal app

MUST HAVE ROOT!
Found this while scouring the threads on XDA but can't find the post. So if you know who did let me know and will add credits to them. At any rate I have modified it to add the flashlight as well. Remember that I am not responsible for your decisions or your phone. Always make a backup. Enjoy.
HOW TO:
First you'll need terminal emulator app from play store. Don't expect a link to it you can get it yourself ya lazy bum.
You'll also need sqlite3, which i will give you since I called you a lazy bum. We good now?
Flash in recovery: edit: download from here and give thanks: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2226373
Select your appropriate sqlite for your binary.(kitkat)
Now open the terminal app and type su
Approve the root request when prompted.
Now, copy and paste this in terminal app. First one then the other.:
First this:
sqlite3 /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db "insert into \"system\" values(null,'notification_panel_active_app_list','Wifi;MobileData;Location;Flashlight;SilentMode;AutoRotate;Bluetooth;Ebook;DormantMode;WiFiHotspot;Brightness;PowerSaving;AllShareCast;MultiWindow;SBeam;Nfc;AirView;AirGesture;SmartNetwork;ToddlerMode;PersonalMode;DrivingMode;SmartStay;SmartScroll;SmartPause;Sync;AirplaneMode;DoNotDisturb;');"
Then this:
sqlite3 /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db "insert into \"system\" values(null,'notification_panel_active_app_list_for_reset','Wifi;MobileData;Location;Flashlight;SilentMode;AutoRotate;Bluetooth;Ebook;DormantMode;WiFiHotspot;Brightness;PowerSaving;AllShareCast;MultiWindow;SBeam;Nfc;AirView;AirGesture;SmartNetwork;ToddlerMode;PersonalMode;DrivingMode;SmartStay;SmartScroll;SmartPause;Sync;AirplaneMode;DoNotDisturb;');"
Reboot and see what happens. You can change the order of them and it'll put them in that order. Don't expect them to look like mine. It will look like whatever theme you're using. Depends on your systemui.apk.

I havent tried your method, though I have tried the others before. I can never get smartnetwork or personalpage to work. I can get the toggles, but as far as I can tell, they dont work with our phone.

Personal page not working yet. Smart network works on sacs v4. At least it'll go thru the motions. I have the s5 port so I'll mess with personal later. I've set it up before with nova so I know it'll work somehow.
Ah, okay. I thought you were talking about stock Note 3. Yea, S5 port should have it all working as there is personal page on the S5
I'm trying to port it over to work on ours. May never work but you'll have the toggle. Lol. Noone else had to know it doesn't work.

HTC backup APK

I uploaded HTC backup apk for anyone who may want or need it. For whatever reason my stock att rom didn't have it installed from att. Not sure why and the even bigger issue was when I searched the playstore it wouldn't show HTC backup, google search turned up nothing either... Extracted from viper/international rom
Install in system/app fix permissions
If that doesn't work may need to create a folder called HTCbackup in system/app then install the apk in the folder make sure the folder permission matches all other system/app folders permissions

Thank you so much for this post , I been looking for this.
Can I ask you for the stock caller ID app , and the stock build.pro
I also wonder , why the VVM Only works with the stock, or I'm pretty sure , there has to be one more step other than copying, pasting and changing permission. Don't you think
I'd really appreciate the apk , and build.pro
Thanks
