[REQUEST] Dialer Customization - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

I would really like to see dialer options (color, size, layout, etc.) in roms and/ or mods, specifically Hyperdrive RLS 6. Honestly, my main pet peeve is that the key pad while in a phone call is set too high on the screen and it becomes annoying trying to use one hand to press key selections. I would like the keypad to open up lower to the bottom of the screen and somewhat smaller proportion.. If anyone has any information or ideas, please post here.

also the fact that its ALL WHITE. A themable dialer similar to the AOSP sms app would be nice

I was just looking for an AOSP style dialer. Hate the factory one.
Hyperdriven RLS6 GS4

You could flash Black it Out:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2311862
Make sure when you get the zip, open it and remove the framework folder within before flashing. Otherwise, it messes with Hyperdrive's multi-selector power button.

I just finished my Dialer theme, it's fashioned after the T-Mobile dialer.

Nope. Not looking for a theme.

[Q] Have you heard of Widgetsoid2.x?

How many of you were aware of Widgetsoid2.x's ability to have notification power widgets (if properly configured) with which you can toggle directly from the notification area (like under CM6.1/CM7) without having to toggle the widgets from a separate popup it launches first (like under Power Control Plus, Extended Controls, others)?
Screenshot taken using Widgetsoid2.x on Ginger-Tazz-Sense b3.
Not really a fan of the coloration of the notification icons. I like the widget controls however.

Me neither, for the notification area I had to color the icons black to be able to see them well (the background doesn't change no matter what in the notification area it seems) and set them to highlighted all the time (unless that was one of the other apps I tried). It definitely would be nice if the icons were more easily customizable - other apps were able to change the color of individual icons, and individual "active" indicators at the bottom.
The one-click notification control was definitely the winning factor for me.
yup, I liked the notification widget when I wasnt using CM7....it comes in handy
Other downfall is WiFi by and god just open the settings. Unless I'm mistaken.

Yeah, that would definitely be a bummer. I would probably use a combination of Widgetsoid2.x and another app in order to provide 1-click for WIFI in that situation.
I'm using Ginger-Tazz-Sense (beta 3 but beta 7 is out now) and this newer Sense interface already has some built-in toggles in the notification/status area, so I don't bother using Widgetsoid2.x for WIFI and some other things.
Check out my screenshot (fixed, ImageShack seems to have a problem with a period in the picture filename I had previously) in my first post ^ to see the second tab at the bottom of the status area, that's where the new Sense's built-in toggles are. Sure you have to make one more click to select that tab but it's still fast.
Yeah I am running beta 5 right now having the minor white screen but if i keep enough ram open i have no issue
this looks pretty neat. thanks

If you have any trouble configuring it the way you think it should work shoot me a message.
In general, it appears you have to keep the option checkmarked at first to open notification widgets as a separate popup which you then click on the widget you want from there. After that first time, THEN you can uncheck the open as popup option and it appears to work just fine from the notification/status area after that.
ye, i have never heard of this before,
but it looks clean and clear in a glance

Thinking of making rom. Ideas wanted

Thinking of making a rom. Based on cm7. (NO BLUR CRAP!) I like features of a lot of roms but HATE all the god awful theme crap people put on everything like these battery circles and all the ****ty looking mish mash of crap. I want my phone to look Android. Not like a ricer Honda.
So:
What features would you like to see in a rom?
What are you favorite features that you commonly use but don't see in a rom that looks good?
Keep in mind this will most likely be cm7 based with a lot if extras....
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
I love cm7 beta but here's what I'd like to see changed:
1. Push button to answer phone instead of swipe to unlock, or at least a settings to choose either.
2. a better 1% batter indicator, as of now, cm7 has the number next to a small green bar, I'd like to see the number inside a battery icon.
3. email client is weak, especially direct dial from email. Currently can't direct dial number included in header. This sucks for business users
4. a cleaner sms user interface. why do I have the droidbot in every text I send, would like to see it streamlined.
5. Vlingo assistant is years ahead of google voice search and should be used as the default voice search.
6. Keep Theme Chooser and all mods under Cyanogen Settings.
Thats all I can think of now but will add more later if I think of any.

I know it's asking for a lot but the only thing I want in any ROM is working hdmi mirroring. Just a suggestion
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
I like:
The lower auto screen brightness tweak that was added into Homebase.
End call widget on homescreen or hold down a capacitive button at the bottom.
I like the toggles in the status bar for wifi and stuff but wish the status bar was about and inch with toggles and maybe end call toggle visible instead of having to slide it down.
Tap to unlock or tap to answer.
Disable data/wifi option on screen off.

Future ROM feature wishlist

So I know that the devs are hard at work on getting us all kinds of CM, AOSP, and/or AOKP goodness, but I thought maybe if any of the devs are looking for some features to add it might be nice to have a thread they can refer to with everyones "wants" once the "needs" are met.
I'll start it off with a request to add support for BLN (back light notification) to an upcoming kernel. This, combined with the option to put the navigation bar on while dissabling the HW keys would be a great feature IMHO. Not to mention our stock notification LED pretty much sucks a big one.
ROM feature requests
Flashlight in notification drawer quick settings
More options in the shutdown menu (Boot to recovery, etc)
Get rid of the idiotic audio policy of volume reduction when plugging in headphones
Allow dialer rotation
The option to see the standard swipe lock screen before the secure lock.
True music controls on the lock screen
Better control of status bar icons (center clock, hide icons, change colors of icons, etc)
The ability to link the notification volume with the ringer volume
Volume rocker music controls
Universal Qslide
Kernel feature requests
BLN
Enable audio through USB for devices like the Infuse Car Dock (I think this is a kernel issue, if not let me know and I'll put it with the ROM stuff)
I didn't see a similar thread on here, so if there is, kindly point me to it and a mod can delete this one. And if BLN support already exists in Sk8's kernel tell me that too, ha ha.
I haven't looked into the ROMs because I'm liking stock, but a request I do have for when I do decide to flash is to have a flashlight if it hasn't been incorporated into the ROMs out now. There's a lot of times where I need to look for something and don't feel like turning on my light switch. Would be a nice thing to be implemented if it hasn't been done and can be done.

I don't know if this is what you have in mind, but I use TeslaLED: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teslacoilsw.flashlight&feature.. It has a widget you can add to the homescreen for a quick on off, as well as some other features. I actually have it as one of my lock screen apps. I wish there was a way to have it turn on when opened from the lockscreen, but it's only one extra tap.
Edit: Gah! John beat me to one.
PS: TeslaLED is only 512K, whereas Tiny Flashlight is anything but at 1.5M

My biggest things are center clock, ability to hide things on status bar, and a flashlight toggle. The Base has done pretty well but I would love a flashlight toggle in my quick settings in my notification drawer. The swipe for flashlight thing was so touchy that I disable it.
Also, I love the theme chooser app and ability to have easy themes for my ROMs like in CM10 and AOKP
EDIT: also the ability to boot straight into download and recovery mode like in certain other ROMs using the power button.
Sent from my LG-E970 using xda app-developers app
The Base ROM does have a flashlight built in, you can activate it in the notification drawer options.
I was using Tesla until I found this.
Though I do wish it was in the Quick Settings too.
I would also love native reboot options.
And lastly, I would love the ability to link the notification volume with the ringer volume.
I know. The swipe thing only works half the time and half of that half, I end up with The Base force closes

I had actually forgot about this feature. I just tried it again and sometimes it takes three or four swipes to turn on. Might be user error though.
Swipe for torch works perfect for me.
Reboot options would be nice.
Volume Button Music controls would be nicer.
I actually came up with a wish while looking at the android dev section.
It doesn't actually have to do with the rom itself, but I'm hoping that as things become further developed to not only have a Changelog but to have a what's working list/what's not working list or just the latter.
I see a lot of threads gets bogged down with DOES THIS WORK? IS THIS INCLUDED?
Granted there's a group of people out there that don't read and just flash, but it could be helpful for another group of people that compare and contrast roms (like myself) before flashing.
Anyone else agree?

That makes sense to me. :thumbup: I wonder if xda could get a ROM form together so all the devs can include all the same info in their ROM's thread's OP. I don't know how practical that would be, but it would be nice to have some standardization.

That is a pretty cool idea.
But from what I've seen, most ROM posts actually follow a pretty basic design.

[APK] [MOD] Side load CM10.1's MMS.apk for AOSP texting + more

Edit 2: Various replies below are currently offering up to a $50 bounty for a fully functioning CM MMS.apk for SGS4 TW
EDIT: This will work for regular SMS, but crash for all send/receive MMS. Recommended to wait until MMS will work properly.
<Insert typical disclaimer here about possibility of messing up your phone. You assume all liability/risks.>
Attached is the MMS.apk from the latest CM10.1 nightly. It includes things like emoji, notification quick reply, notification mark as read, custom vibration settings, and pop-up SMS.
I am successfully running this on my stock, rooted, AT&T SGS4.
1) Root SGS4.
2) Use an app like Root Explorer or a simple 'adb push MMS.apk /system/app' to get the MMS.apk onto your phone.
3) Drop MMS.apk into /system/app
4) Reboot. On reboot it will REPLACE SecMms, the Samsung one with hover view. However, since the Samsung one uses a different file name, if you simply remove MMS.apk from /system/app you can revert back (as SecMms still exists)
5) Profit
Extras: Yes, it can still be used with Multi-window. No, hover view does not work. Yes, you can also just run the apk and install it, but I always feel safer dropping them in myself.
I was so excited. It installed and appeared to work great but it crashes when sending MMS. This really is the single think I want more than any other is a stock SMS replacement.

Ah, you're right. Shoot.
Looks like to fix that I'll need to decomp framework and make some tweaks. I'll see what I can do and let you know...
does this one still have group chat in the settings? and does it have emoji? i remember having it on a old aokp cm10.1 hybrid
Looks good. I will wait until MMS is fixed.

You probably have two lock screen pages because you added two, this nor the other sms apk would add another page with a clock on it.
Go to your lock screen and swipe across the clock to the left until you see the plus button then hit it. Add a random widget.
You'll now be at a zoomed out state of all the pages of lockscreen widgets you have.
Drag any page up to the top until it turns red to remove it.
As far as quick reply i don't think so edit, i think thats just how it is. The default app notifies you of a new message on the lock screen and you click it then swipe to unlock and thats just how touchwiz works, you'll also notice no quick reply from the notification bar using the samsung sms app.
Using this apk you should be able to quick reply from the notification bar meaning if you just have swipe to unlock and no pattern or pin or anything you can pull down the notification bar from the lockscreen and hit the reply button there and that should work.
I uninstalled Mms.apk and went back to original Samsung messaging and that extra page disappeared. First pic is a my lockscreen looks with Samsung app. Second one is pic of lockscreen with custom mms.apk installed and with the original lockscreen being a second page. Ideally I want the Samsung lockscreen because it shows active alarms.
I am able to drag the Samsung screen to remove but it still shows after. I can't drag the other screen nor can I make the Samsung page my default page when I turn on the phone
I also disabled multiple widgets.

[Q] Hills Theme

Hi there,
New to Themer, and liking the idea so far.
I have downloaded the theme Hills (screenshot attached). Love it because it's very simple.
To make it even more simple, I have removed the background, and am loving the idea of a simple lack screen with clean look.
I am hoping to be able to ask the developer to create another version similar to my other screenshot. It would be really handy to have unread email, text and calls, maybe in a neat box just like the time, or better still just a small black and white icon, that a number gets superimposed on, a bit like the stock samsung S2 can do.
Also, would love to have another three, customizable, icons on the seconds apps home screen. I like having an icon on homescreen to turn on a flashlight etc
If anyone can get me in touch with developer, or tell me how to modify this theme the way i'd like, that would be great.
Thanks in advance.
Steve
