AS ALWAYS use at your own risk. Not responsible for anything that might happen to your phone.
Updated DeSense for both, ICS and GB, roms. Changes are NO LONGER permanent.
What can I use this for?:
- set your mainver to accept any of the rezound PH*.zip files while using bootloader
- change look and feel of your rom from sense to something else
- remove extra apps not needed to use your phone
- install apps you need before logging into market
- easily reboot into recovery/bootloader w/o pulling the battery
- block ads
- fix bluetooth on ICS roms
Instructions:
** Must ALREADY be rooted before running (htc Dev Unlock)**
- HTC Drivers must be installed on PC
- USB Debugging turned on for phone
- Connect via usb and charge only
- extract zip somewhere and double click DeSense_v#.bat
- Choose option in menu
Extra steps (recommended)
- Prior to de-sense, log in to all your accounts and setup the intial syncing because you may not be able to once you have de-sensed. Syncing should work after you de-sense if you do this...
Optional:
- Nandroid backup your phone in case you run into issues.
Available options:
**1** DeSense for both ICS and GB
Removes Sense UI. Must have a launcher already installed!!!
**2** Fix Bluetooth on ICS roms
Thx to JoelZ. Click here and thank/donate!
**3** Restore
Restores all of the original apk's you have removed using this util
**4** Install apps (choice menu)
Included apps are:
- wifi tether
- es file explorer
- titanium backup
- Swype
- Nova Launcher (ICS Only)
**5** Remove more HTC, Verizon & google extras
Now removes even more apps!!! If you need something back that this removed, you can use any root exploring program to move the apk from /system/bkup/ to /system/
**6** Change Mainver to universal
Will set your MainVer to "1.00.000.0". This should allow you to install any rom's boot image without getting a mainver error.
Big thanks to drellisdee. Click here to thank/donate!
**7** Remove HTC Lockscreen
Removes HTC circle lockscreen and reverts to default android (NOTE: See Troubleshooting/Issues below, before performing this option*.)
**8** Install ICS notification bar and settings (!!!do not use!!!)
do not use this option as most of (if not all) the newer roms will not be based off the 3.0.11
**9** Install ad-block hosts file
This will block ads in your browser(s) and apps. Must reboot to take effect.
**0** Reboot (choice menu)
Reboot options
- into bootloader
- into recovery
- or normal

Does the wifi tether charge against normal data or will carrier detect and add?
Also, is there a list of all items frozen? I've been slowly freezing htc stuff with zerg/titanium bu and I know I missed some stuff out of caution/uncertainty/fear.
Thanks!

if you open the batch file with any text editor you can see what gets disabled. If you disable an apk twice, it will not affect your phone. So no worries about re-freezing frozen stuff.
wifi tether uses root to provide the service, i cannot make any guarantees to what Verizon will or will not do. I have been using this apk for a while without issues, but I am not making any claims. This stuff is always "use at your own risk"!
The program uses your phone data connection (which is part of your data plan) to provide wifi to other devices i.e. other phones, laptops, desktops, ps3's, etc. If you have limited data plan you can go over the limit using this app.
So i posted this in the Supertool thread - removing sense stops the gallery/album app from working properly. Does anyone know what dependencies the gallery app needs to work?
Thanks
This is ****in awesome excuse my language

I found the missing package is "com.htc.opensense". I'm not to sure what else this enables but I still have a de-sensed ui. I will create a batch file for easy use.
That was it. Thanks!
I understand my original .bat file is not working correctly... i'll update the original file when i get home later tonight. In the meantime you can use the frigid's super tool (link provided) although a lot of the features won't work for our rezounds...

If you used my original file, it was not processing all the way. You could just try to run the "re-sense" option, and that will return you to normal.
Will provide updated file soon

I used the one tool found on Rootz Wiki and so far everything seems fine except for 2 things. The stock HTC mail app force closes upon reboot, and the gallery issue. No big deal because i just froze the stock mail app since I prefer the gmail anyways. Anyone else have the mail FC on reboot?

Yeah I am partial to go launcher myself but cant stomach another UI in the background. Will be nice to pull this sense stuff off the device. Thanks guys.
So far - very awesome. Works great. Love the Sense unlock with go launcher. Perfect.
DISCONTINUED
Sorry, I just sold my phone, and I can't develop for it anymore. I will keep these threads for you guys until something better will occur, but I will have some trouble to solve the problems. Thank you for all appreciations.
-- If this will help, you can still say thank you -- press the Thanks button! :good:
I was never a fan of sense, and if I would knew what is that when I bought the phone, I would have different phone now.
But, I made a version based on HTC T328W European ROM 1.73.401.4, with less sense possible without breaking HTC system.
FEATURES
- I integrated the new SOLO Launcher Free, which is very good.
- I replaced a lot of apps with better ones
- I let sense 4 lockscreen in place because I like to see who is calling before answering, and also it's not unlocking automaticaly when receive a call like a third party lockscreen - but you are free to replace this with what you want.
- I integrated Sony Bravia Engine 2 and Xloud.
- I aplied Supercharger and init.d from my other ROM.
- and many other things...
The ROM is optimized, zipaligned, odexed or deodexed at your choice.
Untill now, the ROM is very fast, stable and smooth, and it seems to be more friendly with battery. I didn't see any bugs. If you do, please tell me to solve them.
INSTALLATION
To install, it's the same procedure you know:
Connect your sdcard to computer with a sdcard adapter, or in recovery with USB Mount, and delete these folders:
.android-secure
Android
LOST DIR
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Copy this ROM zip to sdcard. Reinsert sdcard in your phone.
1. boot in bootloader (from shutt down mode, press vol down and briefly the power button at the same time and keep pressing vol down untill bootloader starts and then press power again to enter in fastboot)
2. connect your phone to computer
3. flash recovery [fastboot flash recovery maxrecovery6.img] - if you don't have a custom recovery, or if you want to try one of my versions
4. flash boot [fastboot flash boot desenboot.img] -see attachments (if you are running european version, you don't need to do that)
5. press power to return to bootloader
6. press vol down to select recovery and then press power - the phone will reboot in recovery.
7. Go advanced - wipe Dalvik cache, confirm
8. Go back, and then wipe all data/factory reset
9. Install zip from sdcard
10. choose ROM zip and confirm install
11. Wait, it will take some time
12. After install finished, reboot phone
First boot will last a litle bit longer (more minutes if your sdcard has a lower class).
After phone start, in first home screen, press home buton to start Settings phone wizard (you will see a home sign in notifications bar - that's what it means); if you don't want to do that you can't enter to your phone. The settings wizard is the classic one from htc. After that, you will figure out what to do
Enjoy!
DOWNLOADS - version 4 updated
1. Deodexed version - only app folder
2. Version with Gapps included
UPDATES:
Rebuilded ROM, removed buggy apps, slimed without gapps. These can be flashed separately if you need them. Also gapps zip will replace the calendar with stock one.
QUICK TIP:
If you like to customize the ROM, and after that to odex it, it's easy.
Download the deodexed version, flash it, remove apps you don't need, add apps you want. At this part, stay away from HTC apps, they are already striped out at maxim.
Then connect the phone to PC in charging mode, open a command prompt terminal where do you have adb installed and type:
Code:
Code:
adb remount <Enter> (this will start adb server and remount your phone system - you should see 'remount succeeded')
adb shell <Enter> (you enter in phone root shell)
dexo <Enter> (and wait for the phone to restart - it will take up to 2 min)
The odexer method is developed by tommytomatoe and presented here.
You only have to do what I wrote, the ROM is already prepared for that, and all my ROMs are.
If you choose to try this ROM, I assume that you know what you are doing, and I am not responsible if you brick your phone.
Thanks for this rom. I was actually waiting to see our phone senseless and you did it. Installed this morning, RAM management seems to be great.

Yes, the ram works well. I don't use google apps, and my top ram usage is around 280Mb, but average 180 Mb.
Now I'm preparing a version two, with some improvements.
You're welcome!
Well, i can see that Version2. Can you share what are the changes? I can see new camera, gallery app.
rockhardy said:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Well, I updated Launcher to last version, which is even better, changed camera, clock, gallery, and I added Personalize back for easy wallpaper change. I removed HTC locations which keeps to give install error, and I let only Google locations and maps.
I thought to change launcher, but after testing nova free, I came to conclusion that solo is better: low memory usage, more features (like unread counts for calls and sms - in nova these are paid); the only thing I notice in solo launcher that could make me to change it is that you can not fill a screen with shortcut because it will have lag, but you can put them in a folder instead, and open with one touch with no lag.
And I did a few other improvements.
By the way, in this ROM you can see bravia engine at work (no artifacts on white surfaces, better photo, images, videos), but also xloud - now in music listening I have to reduce volume to be confortable. But, best part is that the battery consumption is normal. When I tested those features on my other ROM with sense 5 skin, it drain 10% only in settings. I think, if I remove those parts from this ROM, the battery will last even longer, but they are to good to remove them.
Gr8 rom...! :thumbup: i found a small bug... When ever I try to use panorama, the camera app force closes. I don't use it.. Just pointed it if someone wants to use it. Other than that.. Loved your new rom. Great work.. Thanks for your support :beer:

I forgat to mention that, is the new GoogleCalendar, and it has some trouble with synchronization and new events. I will release until tomorrow a patch to replace this and camera. I will replace it with aCalendar free which is very good and will automate synchronize all events and birthdays from contacts.
I'm sorry for this bugs, I tried to match Jellybean appearance, and this calendar and camera was the closest thing, but seems to not be compatible with ICS.
Thank you for suggestions!

It's supposed to disapear, the calendar, because the new one it's called aCalendar. If you still have the icon, you should clear it manualy, as I said before. And in this new one, in menu you have multiple options, between them synchronize. But, with what do you want to synchronize? with google calendar online?

That will be a little bit hard to do. Baidu develop their ROM like an "ecosystem", almost all proprietary apps are interconected and have references in framework too. I took a look at java classes from Baidu framework and I found that. But you can try one from lewaos, they seems to be similar.
Yes, it is interested in a complete two-way synchronization of events with Google.
Unfortunately, as I understand it - aCalendar not support full synchronization with Google.

I understand. I can't test this calendar for that, but you can check this page http://android.stackexchange.com/questions/12823/synchronize-with-multiple-calendars. They show you how to syncronize a calendar with google, and even this one, aCalendar.
I hope it will help you.
--------------------------
Also, you can uninstall aCalendar with ESFile Manager as Root Explorer (don't forget to delete aCalendar.odex from system/app after that), and you can copy HTC Calendar, named Calendar.apk and CalendarProvider.apk from a stock ROM to /system/app, change permissions to rw--r--r--, reboot to recovery and delete dalvik cache, restart. That if stock calendar worked for you. I attached the files you need if you want to do that. I don't put widget too, because widget only work with sense.
Dear Carliv!
Is it possible that the standard calendar could work for your excellent firmware??

Wait, I found out why it didn't worked. Download attached zip. Unpack and copy all those apps in system/app, clear dalvik cache in recovery, and it should work now with every calendar.
I don't use gapps, and that's the reason I cut that part from it.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
I randomly get error message "SystemUI stopped working".
.
(Solution 1) SystemUI FC Error comes due to Xposed. If you dotn install it, this error does not appear. This error happens due to conflict of home key in XposedFW +GravityBox. Thanks to a user adityagulavani, who hinted a quick-tip to solve this problem. Setup this option in GravityBox and error is gone. .
GravityBox>>>Navigation_Keys-Actions >>> HomeKey+LongPressActions >>> Show_Recent_App.
.
After this setup the error does not appear again.
.
(Solution 2) Most probably this is due to Xposed Module. Remove modules one by one and reboot each time to check. There are hundreds o Xposed modules for same task, you can try another. Also Clear Dalvik Cache and Fix Permissions from recovery mode when you reboot..
I dont have Xposed installed but still getting error message "SystemUI stopped working".
(Solution) Clear Dalvik Cache from recovery mode. It will vanish. If possible try "Fix Permissions" in TWRP. This option works for most roms. If you are on CWM, better change to TWRP 2.5.0.0, the total perfect stable version.
.
How to get rid of this Play app . It automatically installs uc broweser, candy games etc. There is no option in this app to stop automatic installation. I didnt disable this app because it may affect some other apps..so plz tell me what do.
(Solution) You did great job by not installing PlayApp. We have installed it for SideBar to work. Do not uninstall PlayApp. There is one App called "Disable Service" specially given to disable PlayApp. Once disabled from this app, it will not bother again and rom features will keep functioning well. After disbling, you can uninstall UC Browser and Candi Bar game. And please, do not uninstall or disable Playapp from System Setting> app manager.
Why PlayApp is included?
(Solution) @remzej said there is some association of this app with SideBar, hence it cannot be avoided. Just disable it with method mentioned above and forget it.
.
Recent app bar it not working correctly. When i close a app it appears after 10 sec or later in recent app bar. Or i have to open some other app to clear it instantly. Hence last opened app doesnt appear in recent bar instantly after exit. (Solution) Recent app works perfectly. Just wipe dalvik cache from recovery
.
Cant see SuperUser/SU? Should I install SuperSU? What do you mean by Hidden SuperSU?
.
(Info) SuperSU is installed inside rom and is already enabled. You will not be prompted for SuperSU permission of any application while installing. Just leave it and do not try to install it to avoid conflicts
Hit Thanks if you liked my work
Thanks for keeping Q900 thread active! I really thank you!

no wae its wrong , what should i do...
Hello!
Before proceeding. It is absolutely necessary for you to be on a stable TWRP build (currently, RC8, 3.0.2-0, and 3.0.2-1). Also, you must have already have had decrypted your ENTIRE phone. If your phone bootloops into TWRP, you probably didn't decrypt, and/or didn't flash no-verity properly, or it could also be that you are on an old TWRP build.
Here we have the base NRD90M ROM from LG.
I have added a few mods to it.
FEATURES
**Multi-user working!
**This ROM is deODEXd
**Has init.d support
**Modified build.prop for better performance and hardware utility
**Removed bloatware (including that HORRID Lookout)
**Force encrypt disabled
**New kernel built-in.
**Based off 3.18.31 from @jcadduono source (thanks so much)!
**Added in the blu_active governor and set as default (via post_boot)
**No-op scheduler is default, and recommended
**Updated build.prop for better Hotspot support.
**More build.prop tweaks
**init.d support baked into the kernel
**Battery life should be noticeably improved, with no loss of performance (maybe even a bit faster).
**No need to wipe anything. System and caches are automatically wiped.
**Updated to SuperSU 2.78 SR4
**Updated boot and shutdown animation to the Android 7 default (thanks @freeza )
**More bloat removed
** Now includes more performance tweaks.
**Full Busybox support included!
**Fixed updater-script and binary
**Removed Sony Bravia/Xperia Engine
**Zen_Decision HotPlug enabled by default. (This will improve battery life, especially when your screen is off)
**TCP Congestion controller set to Westwood+ (improved download speeds)
**KCAL Color Control! Plus the Color Control app! Thanks to @savoca for KCAL and the app! Thanks to @freeza for the updated KCAL.c source file
**IO Stats for scheduler turned off
**IO Read ahead set to 2048kb
**Added init.d scripts to optimize your phone, and keep it fast over time.
**VPN is fixed!
**Gallery locked files are fixed!
**Bluetooth and FM should be fixed!
**No hotspot or ADB debug issues!
**More things I can't remember.
Kernel built on the Linaro 6.1.1 x86_x64 toolchain
Latest: v5.1 combined with v5.5
v5.5 is intended only for people already on v5.1. It will not wipe anything, and your phone will not need to do its initial setup. 5.5 is an update only! You must first flash 5.1, then 5.5. You can tell TWRP to flash files in sequence, so it's no hassle. ZIP no longer checks your device, so be sure that you are flashing for the model the sticker on the phone says that it is.
Here are the changes for v5.5:
Removed boot state verification. This allows your device to pass CTS on SafetyNet. That means that you might be able to use a root hide program, or maybe full unroot within SuperSU, and perhaps apps like Android Pay and Pokemon GO will work. They will never work if root is detected, no matter what.
Used more independent defconfig lines, hopefully static will go away... I highly doubt it, might even cause a no-boot issue. If it does, just tell me and I'll fix it up.
The main changes here are even more battery saving
**some voltage control preparations (still not active)
**added a DNS resolver module to maybe help some people with hotspot.
**Bluetooth and FM should work even better than before (hopefully not worse lol)
** C-states are made aware in the kernel, so sleeping should be more effective, while waking up should be more snappy.
More things. Do it!
Here are the changes for v5:
**ViPER4Android is preinstalled
**Kernel updates to latest sources (no changes other than updates)
**Included Titanium Backup pre-installed. I highly recommend getting the license, this program rocks, and never has ads. With a license you can do batch functions, and theres more features.
**Included Kernel Adiutor to prepare future kernel updates (CPU/GPU under+over clocking later on). You can also use this to tweak I/O settings, governor, screen color). Everything should run pretty good as it is, but what I do, is set read_head in I/O to 2048, and disable I/O Stats. I also set it on boot. I do not recommend modifying any CPU or GPU frequencies since there are no changes in the kernel to allow for that.
**Updated to latest Super SU
If the ROM won't flash because it says you have the wrong device
This is likely due to the conversion thing you guys had to do to root. I don't have the AT&T device and I don't know about that conversion thing. To bypass it, open the ZIP, go into META-INF/com/google/android and delete only the file called updater-script. Replaced it with this one
No need to wipe anything. If you are on stock ROM, ODEXd or deODEXd, or any other NRD90M ROM, you don't need to wipe, the ZIP will take care of everything for you. /data will not be wiped, so all your old apps and settings will be there. Internal storage is of course untouched.
For anyone interested in my color options, they are:
My new settings are:
All 3 colors at 256
Saturation 68
Value 129
Contrast 127
Know that I love deep, rich, vibrant colors. Also, changing colors will not change effects on pictures taken! This is post-processing. Your phone's screen is what changes, not the files that you create.
Note: Adding saturation (vibrance) will always give some sort of color banding -especially since KCAL is post-processing. You can minimize color banding by ever-so-slightly reducing gamma (read as "Value" in the Color Control app), and by ever-so-slightly fine-tuning Contrast. The value changes would be minimal, and the color banding will only be reduced ever-so-slightly, but this is just how it is. Nonetheless, the device looks friggin amazing with the color options set.
Having issues? Read below.
I need you guys to hear me out on this...
I do not have this phone, I cannot do any sort of testing, nor do I keep up with your rooting method.
That said, I cannot fix things that were broken due to the bootloader (such as Static Boot), so if WiFi calling did not work for you after flashing the custom bootloader, please don't ask if it is fixed... I do not know how to fix it. When/if it is fixed, I will let you guys know that it is fixed and who to thank for said fix.
Additionally, I need you to tell me things that do not work. I might not be able to get to all messages, or questions, so if you see that I did not reply, ask again and again until I do... I will reply and answer (obviously don't spam). Be sure to quote me, mention me, or message me. I do not check-in with these threads, just the H918 thread. If you do not send me a notice, I will not know that my attention is needed.
What issues that are ROM-related, not user-related can you report? You will know it is user-related if you modified anything in the phone/ROM.
If you flashed a different kernel, I cannot help you; flash back to the NSS kernel, and re-test.
If you are unsure about an issue, do a clean flash (in TWRP: Wipe-->Advanced-->select Dalvik, System, Data, and Cache (DO NOT SELECT INTERNAL STORAGE OR SDCARD)-->Swipe to wipe-->Install ROM-->boot phone, do not change or install anything. Retry your issue, if it is fixed, great. If it persists, go into your SD Card, and Internal Storage, remove the folders called "Android" and ".android_secure", reboot and try again. Still doesn't work? Mention me and post it here.
Remember, you can backup your USER apps in Titanium Backup (do NOT backup system apps, or restore system apps/system data).
You can also backup your existing setup and apps in TWRP so you can flash back to your original setup. This is good if you did a clean flash, and your problem is still there, you can restore your backup and be like nothing was changed.
Thanks @zhuhang for V4A!
Major thanks to @Chainfire for creating SuperSU
Major thanks to @jcadduono for the root exploit, AND for the TWRP image(s), AND for inspiring me to learn to do it. Also, he supplied the stock System.img, boot.img, and sources for a custom kernel!/RealMVP
Viper4Android is included! To enable, run the app, and configure how you please!
More to come (as I learn to do it)
Please make any requests. If it is not too difficult, I will learn how to, and add it to the MODDED ROM!

Thanks to @jcadduono for the amazing original source he made for us ( you can find it here : https://github.com/jcadduono/android_kernel_lge_msm8996/tree/android-7.0-security
Everything is still working great! Thanks again @Tilde88. Those color settings are awesome, too. Much better than stock!
Glad to see this! Trying now..
UPDATE: Runs pretty smooth. Thanks again!
Yeah it worked perfectly now after replacing the updater-script (correctly). Thanks for doing this! My only request is just on adding the advanced power menu options such as reboot to recovery/bootloader Other than that - its perfect.

I second this! Advanced power menu with recovery/bootloader reboot would be great. I use ROM Toolbox Pro to boot into recovery as it is now.
Also, would like to put GApps Pico with the ability to add any extra Google features as necessary. I pretty much just use the play store and some services. I like minimal Google services and apps on my phone. For example, I use Waze instead of Google Maps, and I use Gmail, but not the app. I use a different email app but I cannot delete Maps or Gmail since they are system apps, just disable them and their services. I don't use OK Google, Google Now, Hangouts, etc... There are a lot more examples like this.

You can delete system apps by using a program such as Titanium Backup. You can also backup your apps, and restore them on other ROMs. Don't backup system apps, just user apps.
I recommend the Pro version of Titanium; I bought it years ago, and still use it today. One of, if not the actual best, backup/restore program.
With pro you can do batch files, instead of 1by1. Also good for games to save their current state.

Titanium Backup is great! I have the pro version as well and use it constantly. I guess I'm not really concerned with the apps taking up space, rather just starting with the bare minimum of necessary things and adding what is needed afterward. But I usually freeze the apps just to avoid any possible issues with deleting. Another app that is just as great is ROM Toolbox Pro. Their App Manager and Auto Start Manager have advanced freeze functions that show you every single activity, receiver, and service attached to each app and gives you full functionality over them.
@nikktrikk @twistedvip or anyone else that wants to test.
@me2151 has given me a new defconfig for the kernel which might fix the static boot thing. Can anyone try it out for me please? It can be found here. Let me know how it goes. Thanks.

Just flashed on my H910. Unfortunately, it still gave me the static screen upon reboot.
EDIT: It also seems to have made the phone very laggy compared to your original custom ROM.

You can flash the boot.img from the ROM you already have downloaded. Just extract it out of the .ZIP, go to twrp, and flash the image as Boot

Everything is still running great. Much better battery life than stock! Just wanted to let you know, the only thing I have found that is missing is the Screen Capture feature. On the stock AT&T ROM, it is included in the pull down menu from the top, but it is not here at all in the custom ROM. If you navigate to Settings>Display>Home touch buttons>Button combinations, you can actually see the capture icon used as an example in the help section in the bottom half of the screen showing how to rearrange the buttons. The center button shows the capture button icon, but that button is not an available button to choose from when actually rearranging the Home touch buttons.

Got the error that I'm not a 910. Tried swapping the update script to bypass the check, but now get an error that the update binary is missing while trying to flash it. Went to check and it is still the in the zip however. Did I miss something obvious?

Sounds like you broke the ZIP. Don't modify it on your phone. copy the ZIP to your PC (don't open it from internal storage). Well, since it's broken now, download it again. When it's done downloading, open the ZIP on your PC, remove only the updater-script file, and once you have only the update-binary, re-add the updater-script.
I made a copy before I modded it. I'll try your approach and give it another go. Thanks!

Still getting bluetooth shutting off randomly.
I flashed this using no wipe, as in instructions...on Dirty Santa AT&T rooted phone. Bluetooth STILL is completely annoying and disconnects whenever it feels like it. Even Bluetooth Auto Connect and Bluetooth Keep Alive are of no use as fixes. Any ideas??? Should I wipe and just flash your rom to clear up any bugs??
[EDIT] I JUST WIPED AND FLASHED...WILL POST RESULTS!!!!!
Thanks for your awesome work and thank you for your time!!!!
IntroductionThis is a port of my H2O2 mod which I originally made for Oneplus 3. https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/themes/mod-h2o2-accent-colors-grammar-fix-t3514804/

- New accent colors in Dark Theme: White, Red and Lime
- Fixed Grammar in Settings > Battery > High Power Usage apps
- Removed network status indicators - the blinking arrows in status bar from pre-kitkat era
- Status bar doesn't turn orange when Battery saver is enabled
- Center clock (optional) - Please disable default clock from Settings > Status bar otherwise you will have two clocks
- Disable AM/PM in default clock
Installation1. Make nandroid before you flash this.
2. Download the zip and flash it.
3. Hit thanks and enjoy
For reporting bugs, please attach screenshots if possible
Compatibilityv0.5 - For OOS 4.0 and ROMS based on OOS4.0
Issues?I didn't have any bootloops without root so it doesn't seem to be necessary. However for some people, rooting fixed the issue. You can unroot later.
Starting with version 3.5, I have made some improvements in installer to avoid. If you still face bootloop, For anyone experiencing bootloops, please provide the following info
1) F2Fs or ext4
2) Encrypted or not
3) Rooted or not
4) Save log in aroma installer and attach
To fix bootloops, dirty flash ROM

Beta 0.5 is the first release for 3T. Please ignore changelog in AROMA installer. I forgot to edit it.
Since I do not have a OP3T myself, there may be some minor bugs in this version. Currently I'm looking for some beta testers for stable releases in future. PM me if interested

Currently it is for OOS 4.0 stable only.
I think beta builds are named ob1,2... etc and not OOS 4.
Will try this on stock unrooted OOS4.0 Nougat for OP3T in a minute. Hope it really does work on un-rooted stock OOS 4.0, since then I would be able to use bank apps which do not work on rooted systems unless rom is compatible with xposed or suhide/root switch.

In my testing, it worked without root.
Root in any case is only required for installation. You can unroot after installing the mod
Everything working great except for the settings app being super slow on the initial start. But that's not really an issue.
Could attach a video if you need.

Just to be sure, you would need to boot into system once after rooting, open SuperSU app, reboot to recovery and then flash the mod.

I don't know for sure what the issue is. I request everyone flashing this to save logs during installation (last installation screen in AROMA) and attach the same if it causes black screen or other issues. Thanks

I got it working on rooted system. Steps:
1. Simply booted into system 1 time after I had installed latest SuperSU;
2. Booted into twrp;
3. Installed your mod;
4. Wiped dalvik and cached;
5. Booted into system;
6. Center clock works
Now I will try and see if it (center clock remains), if I un-root my phone via superSU app.

Unfortunately removing root causes the following:
1. Status bar is all black (no icons are visible);
2. Quick toggles and settings are inaccessible.

If center clock was working properly with root, it means the systemUI was copied properly with right permissions. Removing root would not change that.
Can you try to go back to recovery, mount system. Then use the twrp file manager, browse to system> priv-app> OPSystemUI folder. You'll find OPSystemUI.apk. Select and do chmod 644.
If this doesn't sort out, I guess dirty flash your ROM to restore everything back to normal

Should I do it after I run SuperSU app - Settings - Full Unroot?
Any other unroot method besides using SuperSU apps Full Unroot option?
I am thinking that maybe superSU messes up something..

After unroot
SuperSU really shouldn't interfere with system files.
Statusbar stuff is related to SystemUI. Either the systemUI itself crashed (which would resolve on next reboot) or permissions somehow got messed up (chmod 644 would solve this)
Check permissions using a root file explorer like Solid explorer for OPSystemUI.apk (inside system > priv-app > opsystemui ) while you are rooted. Should be rw-r-r
Btw can you grab aroma log next time you install the mod. Thanks
