Hello. I would like to remove some MODs that I don't like, from a custom ROM, before flashing it. How can I do that?
Ask the rom chef, mods aren't apps so it isn't like a single file needs deleting. Most chefs won't do this, they are sharing a build how they like it to work.

You would need to read up on each mod and what it contains and replace the items .
But as said above you choose the rom and its mods . But note some some roms are aroma installed and you can pick and choose mods . Also some mods can be overwritten by other mods .
But its more a question of reading and learning how to build your own rom .

I joined this forum 7 months ago. Since then I've been using mods made by developers of this forum. Mods which have made life easier and using my phone more fun. I would like to thank the developers for those superb mods, rooting solutions, CWM, quickpanels, battery icon with percentage, init.d and build.prop tweaks to improve performance, fantastically modded stock home launchers, ports of walkman player, clear bass; sound mods, beats, xsincrediblebass; fonts, system apps from other phones, boot animations, supercharger, rebootpower menu etc etc :victory:
I would also like to make a special mention of ROMs for locked bootloaders. When I first unlocked my bootloader and tried to apply a custom kernel, I realized that my phone has NAND bad blocks. So I had thought that I would never be able to flash custom ROMs. But thanks to the developers who started making custom ROMs for locked bootloaders, I could get a taste of custom ROMs too:good:
There are somethings that I would like to request,
1) May be a method to flash custom kernels for phone's which have bad sector errors. May be custom kernels in .ftf format which can be flashed in flashmode??
2) A way to apply only the mods that we require. For example If my systemUI already has a quickpanel and I want to apply a mod which changes battery icons, it should be able to update our existing systemUI.apk or whichever system apk is involved, so that the previous mods are unaffected. Not only battery icons but big mods like lockscreen mod etc could be applied by this method of updating existing files.
3) I would really like to have a taste of CyanogenMod ROMs on my phone with locked bootloader:fingers-crossed:
I don't know if these things are impossible. I'm just a noob

2. Remove whatever you do not need from the mod zip file using 7zip, but make sure not extract the files.
3. That's impossible. As CM needs custom Kernel, and custom Kernel needs unlocked bootloader.
Thanks,
Rick

I do remove files which I don't need from flashable zips. But in some cases, like battey icon and quickpanel, same file's modification is needed. SystemUI.apk and may be framework.apk. When I apply a mod related to these files, already existing file will be replaced. So for one mod v have to sacrifice an already existing mod
I'm still hopefull about cyanogenmod. May be someone could make a cyanogenmod based ROM with many of it's features included for stock kernel:fingers-crossed:
Hi,
This is not my work but I want to share it, the original thread is here:
[SCRIPT TO ODEX] Universal Odex Script Version 6.3 (10-09-2013)(MM-dd-yyyy)
I was on stock rom so Odexed and I flashed a custom Deoxeded rom (for some features and mods)... But I loose the smoothess of my stock rom..., some kind of lags and stutters scrolling in settings, openning an app the transition animation is not smooth, etc... And by searching on the Android Development and Hacking forum I found this thread above...
I had a doubt about the real improvement... But who knows? Nandroid backup, I follow the guide and... My phone is smooth as before, apps open faster, like on stock! All the mods flashed before works, no bootloop, no force closes, all is fine
BUT there is always a but, you're custom Deodexed rom is now Odexed, nothing dramatic but good bye the mods for Deodexed rom (bootloop) so before flashing a mode make sure it's for Odexed rom...
You can flash your favorite Deoxeded rom, flash some mods and then Odex your rom, you'll keep your mods (at least for me).
For Deoxeded... Reflash your rom or a backup (Deoxeded).
Download the attached file.
Place it on your sdcard.
Reboot in recovery and in the first place make a Nandroid backup then flash the zip in recovery and reboot.
You'll see that the app Script Manager was installed, open it then type (press enter after each line):
su
dexo -all
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
A line will appear then type "Yes" and press enter, the procedure will start, maybe you'll have some Force Closes, it's normal then the phone will reboot... and enjoy!
For more details about what exactly does the script, a better explanation, etc... Take a look to the original thread.
Don't odex the Data app or you'll need to reinstall your paid apps (and before delete the .dex files), you'll encouter a lot of force closes, etc...
I tested on LG rom only...
I hope this will help

Hi,
It depends of the mods?
Generally, use your mods then Odex your rom, there is a chance that after Odexed your rom you can't properly apply other mods...
I think the OP is clear...:

Im looking to customize my phone even more than the already made themes for this rom.
it says create a zip of the custom setting theme, but to be honest I have no idea how to

If some one could help me out.
Thanks!

You have to have some knowledge of theme work to be able to create your own. There is a massive amount threads that can give you that information. The option you're talking about just makes a zip file of the settings you're using.
Soo i have Z2 with stock rom,i now want to root it and install some custom rom....I need some advice whats the best right now custom rom with all features (Z2 camera mod tweaks,battery tweaks,audio boost...)
And i would like to have different UI i am bored of stock android And that have no bugs
I never rooted and all that more help the better What i need to do to get custom rom and all that
It's best to do some searches, get an idea of how to to root, what ROMs and mods there are. Then look for threads regarding what interests you and ask questions there.
Bear in mind there's less development now for the Z2.
Good luck

First of all you need to install latest official MM build, I assume you've alredy done that. So next step for root and recovery is in this https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z2/general/tool-rooting-23-5-1-291-supersu-t3437280.When you get root and recovery you need to backup your TA partition bcs of DRM keys(use google about that). Guide is here https://forum.xda-developers.com/xp.../tutorial-backup-ta-partition-to-drm-t2234627 After that go to flashtool and follow process for unlocking bootloader. Now you can install custom kernel too. Only active thread with developers is https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z2/development/aosp-6-0-marshmallow-sony-xperia-z2-t3235951 and its very confusing but subscribe there and follow thread. I personally use stock rom with mods without xposed, and everything i have written you is from my personal experience about 2 month ago. So good luck, and if I helped you press thanks
Android 6.0.1 is on my Z2 D6503 and I know to root and unlock bootloader thats easy,but i need to know what to install after that ?

I installed all mod's manually on my stock MM, but you can find something like this is best option (my opinion) https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z2/development/rom-kryptonian-rom-awesomeness-v1-t3484534

Every Stock modified rom supports any mod that you mentioned above ( some have it already pre-installed).
If you want to change the look on stock rom install xposed or flash mods like Pixel mod..
You dont need UB to install any mods, UB only to install Custom Roms like CM,Paranoid....

Yes you can
For looks some of them need debloat check before flashing it\
Camera audio mods, display mod, quick charge all can be flashed just with root and recovery.
Assuming your rom is Stock
Below is a 3 Minit flashable zip framework for the LG V20 H918 10p. It may work on other LG devices and other V20 variants. I got the original zip from Nyfl2004 so he gets all the credit!
Flashing instructions:
1) PURCHASE the 3 Minit paid version from here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.three.minit.minitbatterysettings
Ok, this is optional because the zip file contains the free version. But the free version doesn't support AdAway which I can't live without. Also, by purchasing this app you get the joy of supporting an awesome developer.
2) Download the framework from here:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3y-9RMsaMSbWGQ3WFl3anktUTQ/view?usp=drivesdk
3) Boot into twrp, make a backup, and flash the zip
4) reboot. Use the app to make changes.
If you mess something up, just reflash your ROM or restore from your backup.
Enjoy. Please leave thanks if this is helpful to you.
Thanks!
Is there a version for 10k by any chance?

I would personally have to say this mod would be recommended for a stock, deodexed rom, meaning not a custom built rom.
Reason being, custom roms like WETA and NATF have mods already built in (nor sure of they include these mods) and replacing the SystemUI will remove any additional mods they have leaving you with just the mods mentioned in this thread.
I know WETA has many mods like NavBar icons and others, those will all be lost and the options in WETA control would be broken.
You're best bet if the custom rom you're running doesn't have a feature you want is to contact the dev or learn how to use apktool to modify the files for your needs.
I don't run any of the roms here so I can't say what they do or do not have so this is just my opinion based on building my own roms so do what you will with the info.
Good luck.
OP congrats and keep up the good work!
Great to see people stepping in to build especially since we've recently lost a few devs for our v20. If u have any questions or looking to nake some more mods happen, hit me up and I'll do my best to get you set up.
