I have a deodexed 20h rom and removed almost all of LG apps. Here is what I use as alternatives.
Camera JB+, Shuttle Music Player, SwipeDialer, Google Calendar, 4.2 Alarm Clock, Nova Launcher, Widgetlocker and Google Keyboard.
I have attached the Nexus boot animation as well as ringtones and notifications . Just use a root file explorer to copy and paste boot animation to system/media.
I added several working apks that I pulled from a Galaxy Nexus 4.1.2 rom. Enjoy!
You need to extract the ringtones and notifications then paste them to the appropriate areas in system/media/audio.
It is safe to remove pretty much everything EXCEPT the phone and contacts. Please leave them alone... talking by experience here... lol.
Most are paid apps but worth every penny.... don't be so cheap.

I have most of these apps...one thing that annoys me using the Google calendar is that I always get double notifications from the stock calendar.
You said that it is safe to remove the stock calendar app? How about the stock camera?

Yeah... you can remove the stock calendar and camera apps.
I forgot to mention the excellent music player called Shuttle Music Player.

I first used xUltimate to extract the framework and app folders, then I used kitchen to deodex. I used some adb commands to transfer it back to the phone....I can post the commands I used later... if you want to know that info.
Sent from my LG-P769 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Thanks, I know the commands
But what api did you choose was it 17 or 16? I chose 16 and it didn't work right.
Sent from my LGMS769 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Wow. I really don't remember, to be honest. I just chose deodex and waited. I had errors with LGKeyboard and Hangouts. I removed the keyboard and used es file explorer to paste Hangouts to the system/app folder.
Sent from my LG-P769 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Lol, okay thanks. You probably chose 17 which is the default : )

The stock messaging app is fairly solid, it has some nice hidden features it just needs to be themed. When I get some more time I'll see what I can do. I really like this pop out option.
LOL I had to take the picture down, I just realized I had my wife's number showing.

Flash it? Or does it need to be pushed?
I'm using the 10d metro ROM...anyone know where to find boot down screens?

I just pushed the boot animation zip to system/media using ES File Explorer with root. You can also use Root Explorer.

Might I suggest using Textra as an alternative to the stock messaging app? It has a great user-interface, ability to change chat bubble colors, dark theme, emoji support through a plugin, and my favorite would be the quick reply feature, where you are able to to tap the notification and reply to that message from any app you are using (excluding games, but that happens with any messaging app). There is also an option to have a quick compose button on the notification bar, so you'd literally never even have to enter the actual application to send/receive texts.
The only downside I would say this application has is that depending on the carrier that you have on your phone, MMS may not function, but other than that, it is great!
Hi,
Today I'm gonna tell you how to fix the Note 3 My Files not working on Note 2.
For the ones who flashed it and opened my files, most of them noticed there is no difference at all. But actually, thats because its not installes properly.
So today, I'll tell you how to get it working.
First, download this: https://db.tt/W7Pm3RMy
After you download it, go to system/app with a root explorer with right permissions, and delete the original note 2 my files, it should be called, SecMyFiles or somthing like that.
Next, push the New Note 3 my files to system/app. And delete the old SecMyFiles.odex.
Now reboot, Enjoy.
PLEASE Give Me A THANKS BUTTON if I Helped!!

You should have it under SecMyFiles.apk. . But I guess you're ROM is Deodexed so I don't think you have odex files.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Yes it's a deodexed rom... will it still work? I followed your guide up until the deletion of the .odex file cos I dont have that file in my app folder. It crashes when I try to run it, with a single vibration followed by 3 successive vibrations....

Ive been trying to figure out how to use xtheme engine for two days now. No matter which theme I download the engine only ever says I can use System Default when I open the dropdown menu to choose a theme. I cant figure out where to download the themes to, and no forum I've read says what to do about this issue. Can someone please help me figure this out?

Click on the theme to actually install the themes if not installed it won't show up any where

Themes are apk's that you actually install then they are available in the theme engine
Yea I finally figured it out. This whole time I was completely overlooking the install option because it looked like the view files option. Thanks a bunch guys it's much appreciated, I was so irritated lol...

hello, i m using pure Xperia z2 rom and i m tired of cleaning rom manually... i use clean master to do so. my question is...is there any way to prevent these apps from starting by itself???
pdajoy said:
I found SPB Backup, Version 2.0.1, Build 3092, full restore after rom change not 100% fool proof.
I only used it to restore to same rom, all program best to re-install individually. Hopefully there is new update.
