What ROM are you running? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3

Im using a stock rooted rom but I wanted to know what ROMS you guys were running.. I want something new and stable..

i just updated minin3 maximus and minimus roms.
check them out.
minimus is stock but stripped to the bone (500mb or so)
maximus is pretty heavily modified with an eye toward speed,battery use, and personal customization.
both are fairly mature at this point and should be mostly rock solid stable.

What he said

Jellybomb 3.0 (Test build)
Looks great, works well, but I'm having an issue with screen timeout. Basically, it won't timeout. It will only dim. I've had the problem with the 2.0 stable build and the test build. I will probably try a stock rom next. It is annoying to have to turn the screen off everytime.

I got in running and its really smooth. The only thing I dont like is the see through app draw and pull down bar. I just wish it was a little darker to block out the background a little more. Other than that its really nice. Smooth and fast..
Oh, and the live wall paper picker isnt working.. Not a deal breaker.

You can change the opacity of the drawer...
It's under
Wanam xposed > themes > I think it's panel background
There should be an opacity slider.
And live wallpaper should work, the issue is none come installed by default.

Sweet. I changed the opacity and its perfect now. Live wallpaper picker crashes every time though. I did a clean install. Not really a big deal but Ill try to figure it out. I hate when things dont work even if I dont really use them..

Wow. Noob mistake..... Live wallpaper doesnt work because none were installed with the rom so when you select it the thing just crashed...:silly: I downloaded one from the store and it works fine. lol.
Great job on the rom btw. I really like it.

There are a ton of excellent roms in the dev thread. I encourage trying all of them.
Each is unique and awesome.

You've gotta do Minimu3 Maximus. I usually get sick of a new RIM within a few hours because they're limited or dysfunctional. I would hate going back to stock after using Minimu3 Maximus. It's the same feeling I had when I switched from apple to android.

Just switched to Minin3 MaximuS 5.4
I like this rom minus a few minor issues.
For one, the text that displays the list of contacts as you dial them has a white font on a white background. However, when you select the drop down menu, you can read it just fine.
Also, the layout and formatting of the thumbnails in the gallery is off. You have to scroll to see additional pictures even though the gallery window isn't fully populated with thumbnails. Thumbnails to the far right are cut off making it impossible to know which picture it actually is.
There is also the annoying select input, notification that doesn't seem to be able to be cleared even after an input is selected.
Google search is broken and force closes everytime.

There are fixes for most of the issues coming with his 5.5 release. As far as the gallery issue goes you can open app settings application and set the gallery to either 480 dpi (large) or 290 dpi (small) and everything will fit to screen. Google search you should just be able to uninstall from phone then re Install through play store.
Mj is really quick to help/fix issues if you post over on his thread. I see you're just a couple posts away from being able to.
Hope this helps and welcome to the team. I have been enjoying maximus for months now.

I used Maximus for a few weeks and loved it, but switched to CM now that it is finally out, and could not be happier thus far.

MOD please remove thread

I had some things to figure. this is what I decided, I'm currently working on (4) themes and that is way more than I can handle. so I will move the TC 2.5 link to the Twisted Stock page for those of you who still want it.. all work on the 2 unreleased projects will stop, for now. updates on Twisted Colors will SLOW, not stop. for me it really is about Quality not Quantity.........I will leave this here for a few Days Then request MOD delete......
Here it is.. Twisted Colors 2.5
First things first...If you have a Vibrant meltdown, its on you...you should know what your doing by now! anyway.....This does not work on Simply Stock "next project" however it did work on 5.0 so if you go that route and your phone explodes, thats on you to.this is my first public theme so be honest but be nice. this theme is in noway complete. (about 90%) I have flashed this theme roughly 60 times throughout stages with no undesired results...If you like what you see just hit the thanks button, thats all i ask. i did not use rom manager just flashed through recovery.Please keep in mind guys it will only get better. I did flash this on my test phone and my daily driver, no issues for me. oh I did have 1 issue I changed some TWiz icons but they refuse to take. I use Zeam so its no big deal for me. if you use anything else you want notice.. ok enough small talk here it is
Twisted Colors 2.5 update: minor edits +more twframework edits
http://www.multiupload.com/DI2D30M8XY
P.S. feel free to rip it apart, eat it, bury it or borrow the icons. I don't care. I just ask that you give credit. i did use a couple of icons from SPLASH OF COLOR "with Permission".
Sounds good. Will it be compatible to Simply Stock JVS 2.3.5 also?

I wish there were more themes for this launcher and the ones that are out there didnt cost money. I think this is a great launcher but im not real keen on the theme.

There are more themes in Google Play than in the built-in theme selector. Maybe that's what (s)he's seeing.
This launcher is cool, but it feels rushed in a few ways. For example, why can't I configure:
Where the MX (Cover screen?) button goes
Where the app drawer icon goes, or its icon (and why isn't it themed?)
The number of docks. I just want the one.
The task killer. I can already open it by long-pressing app drawer. Yet I can't move the dedicated task killer launcher (from dock 2).
The names and colors of the folders in the app drawer. No "Games"? And what is Lifestyle anyway?
The icons on the clock. Yes, I know I can change them, but to select Music, I have to have it launch the stock Blur music app? No thanks, I like the MIUI one, TYVM. Likewise with Contacts, I can't make it open Contapps. Gallery won't open QuickPic. You see where this is going.
The home screen indicator. I'm fine with it being there when I'm changing screens, but all the time? Not feeling it.
Other than that, it is a nice launcher. When placing icons, you get the grid from GO Launcher EX. Also from GO is the home screen configuration (press Home, this lets you add or remove home screens, or move them around). From GO and ADW it has a popup when long-pressing icons; other than being more visually impressive, it adds an Info option which takes you to its page in Settings/Applications (this is good if you want to force close the app, or maybe clear its cache, or remove its defaults).
The settings are also really bare and spread out amongst some confusing labels.
This app has a couple neat ideas. The app drawer and cover screen are nice touches, but the customization is very shallow. It feels like a beta, a work in progress. I'll keep it around because this thing is just dripping with potential.

[MOD] SHOstock2 v3.0.4 Tweaks (06/02) - Flashable Packages Included

First off, hats off to Shoman for producing one of the BEST ROMs available. If you use his ROM make sure you thank him.
I recognize that his ROM is tailored to meet his personal preferences and I would not ask him to change that, so I tweaked a couple of things in the ROM to meet my personal preferences. I've been running this for most of this week and figured I would share with the community.
MOD: Power Menu Tweaks
Tweaked power menu to use the stock theme (colors)
Tweaked power menu to only include "Power Off", "Reboot", "Recovery", & "Download" options.
MOD: Status Bar Tweaks
Statusbar (wifi & radio) reverted back to v2 layout.
Tweaked status bar to use ICS theme color the the time.
Tweaked expanded status bar to include long date.
Tweaked expanded status bar to include "No notifications" text.
Tweaked expanded status bar to appear more ICS.
Removed the AT&T logo from the expanded status bar.
PACKAGES
There are 4 flashable packages available:
All Tweaks (includes both mods above)
Power Menu Tweaks
Status Bar Tweaks
Remove Tweaks
Downloads
HOW TO DOWNLOAD FROM GOOGLE DRIVE
1. Click on the zip file listed in the left pane. The right side will display the contents of the zip.
2. Click the "File" menu item below the ZIP file name and select download.
Just in case...
Thanks for this! Now if I can only find a way to replace that battery indicator, i'll actually use that ROM for more than a day.

Thanks. I've actually been thinking about removing the "No notifications" text... basically reverting back to how Shoman has it. I'll probably post an update tomorrow evening.
Would you consider adding back the carrier information? It's a serious hindrance for me personally as I am continuously roaming (out of the country 340+ days/year). I need to see what network I'm connected to as I frequently have to switch as I move about.
Thanks!
EDIT: Alternatively, do you have any idea whether it would be a simple thing to edit the stock ShoStock 3.0.4 status bar files to remove the roaming "R" without changing anything else? That's really the only fix I need from 3.0.4 but I can't really bug Shoman about something so minor, although I'm guessing he will include it in the next update. I'd be eternally grateful if it's a super quick thing and you could send me a zip just with the R gone.
One word. Perfect. I love shos rom but his theming This is exa This is exactly what I've been looking for. Thank you thank you thank you.
Hope we'll see an update for 3.0.5.

Would still like it without the Notifications text like we talked about before.
Still some badass tweaks. My wife just ogt her a SGSII as a replacement for her Inspire and she hated the wifi and data icons. She would only stay with Shostock once I showed her this mod.

Problem with Nova Launcher spacing, question on how to fix

Hi, not sure if this is the correct place to post, the Themes and Apps forum seems to be more for promoting developer apps and the like.
So, I am having an issues with Nova Launcher; I made a picture - http://imgur.com/w7eFSac
What am I looking for is to be able to slide the entire app grid down to reduce the empty space on the bottom and increase it at the top. It is NOT an issue with my icon pack, it is the same with default icons. I have messed around with the settings a lot - there is an option to increase/decrease spacing above and below as a unit, but not separately. Any thoughts? Thanks.

I always use Nova as well and unless someone comes up with a specific mod for Nova I don't think its possible. I could be wrong but like you already know the only options for the margins affect all aspects of the margins ( top , bottom, left, right )
Maybe look into another launcher?

That's what I'm leaning toward. To be honest I am surprised this isn't more of an issue with people... the margin balance at the top and bottom is terrible. The icons are almost touching the status bar at the top and there's probably 4-5mm of space at the bottom.
Any recommendations on another launcher?

You know the only other one I found to be comparable to Nova was Apex. Plus you can still use all the same icons pretty much. There are quite a few launchers out now though so hopefully you find one ya like.

Can't you remove the homescreen page indicator in the dock settings? That might bring the app icons down a bit. I use TSF Shell, it's freeing to not be confined to a grid like all of the other launchers.

Good idea I'll check into that and I keep meaning to look into TSF too just never have. Looks pretty damn cool. Which one exactly are you using?

Along with some of the separately downloaded TSF widgets. It takes awhile getting used to, like you can tell they changed the way they handle certain launcher tasks just to differentiate themselves, but it has some cool concepts. Only downside is that $17 it costs lol

Thanks man .. actually it's showing me that it's something like $11 and change. Maybe that's why I never took the TSF plunge but if your recommending it maybe I'll check it out.
Hey it's only money right?!? Lol

I got it I think back on my GNex so it was $17 back then... same price as Next launcher is or used to be... but they had a free trial option to test it out. It's up to you how much $11 is worth lol I really like the launcher though.

So you want your stock themes to work?

So after owning g2 on att..we had same issue. Please disregard if its been posted. If you didn't know already here you go. This does not require root.
1. Go to the market. Download Launcher Pro
2. Don't open it. We're using it for a huge benefit it's always left a back door open for us devs..
3. Press on empty home screen to bring up widgets.
4. Scroll to find the activities in form of launcher pro icon
5. Press on It once It will bring up a huge hidden menu..
6. Scroll down to Home
7. Press home and scroll down to hidden menu themes provider (or the first hidden menu themes etc you see)
8. Press it once.
If you did this in the correct order it will bring a nice sweet blue icon on your home screen ..you can put it in a folder but keep it. Press on it to now have your theme picker.
9. Google LG world apk..download It and now enjoy your themes etc..
I hope this made you smile.
Peace.

Any chance for problems if rooted and modified with g3 tweaksbox? I was going to apply a theme, but don't want issues from the changes I made with xposed.

Gave it a shot and yes it does work with exposed. No issues yet.
If I remember right, it's the first "Theme" that shows up in that menu. It's not what the OP called it.
Yeah I have it installed already. I just didn't want to install a theme and mess something up.

What themes are you talking about? I mean, you don't mean any cm themes do you.

Lg has themes available similar to like what Miui has but nowhere near as good. Most are pretty lame actually... probably why they dropped them from US varients, but there's a work around.
This topic should have probably been placed in the Themes and Apps forum, but here is some more detailed info on the subject.

I've tried a few. One for the g2 locked my phone up hard and made it totally unresponsive. Theme did stick after a battery pull and was fair at best. It was interesting to play around with for a bit but like i said, most are pretty weak.

Correction duly noted. Thank you. I posted off top of my head. I thought it said what I posted. But important thing is the process is quite painless.

I also add this is for version of sprint that does have the theme apk or home themes hidden. I don't know why. But this does not require root and is for stock Rom. Or out of box fix. Yes it can be moved to themes and apps if mods feel I've posted in error. Again just trying to help keep this sprint version level with the experience of the rest. The stock themes do suck. But the option is also great to have. Peace. And thank you all for your help.

Hope my post didn't come across as snotty. It wasn't my intent if it did ? and thanks for getting this over to the Sprint forums.
I agree, it's a cool option to have. This type of stuff is always fun to tinker with.
