Hey Guys, so basically this guide is going to cover the fact of getting more performance/battery life out of your S8+ by running a more stock Android Like Experience.... Whether your like myself and prefer stock android over ****ty touch wiz or just want your device less debated and to perform smoother than this is for you!
For Starters I would like to point out that you will need to buy 1 app which has a 5 day refund policy if you do not like it.... So the reason this works without root is because u can disable apps now if you have the Exynos models with the root you will not need this app....
I have disabled Basically all of the Stock Samsung Apps and replaced with the following Google Apps.... Now the keyboard is SwiftKey however you are welcome to use the Google keyboard if you prefer it better.... You should install these before you download the. Xml below.... Now you cant get Google dialer or Google contacts off the play store so u must download it off XDA... The Reason we use Google version of these apps vs Samsung's pre-installed ones is because Samsung's apps tend to use more ram and Googles app set it basically what stock Android uses.... Nova Launcher is also a very stock Android Like launcher that myself and others prefer to use on all of our Android devices...

Once you have each of those we can move onto the next step... You will now need to download the app I mentioned before that you have to pay for. You can download that here
HTML:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ospolice.packagedisablerpro&hl=en
and the PD Engine from here
HTML:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mlsplit.samsungservice&hl=en
For this app it will tell you do download something called PD Engine so download that.... Once you load up the app u will need to give it administrator privileges that way it can disable all the apps.... After this is completed and u are on the main screen u can download the XML listed below this post to your phone, and in the Package Disabler Pro App click the 3 dots in the top right corner then click on import from XML and select the file you just downloaded from here. Go back to your home screen and you should see all the Samsung Apps missing as well as Device Maintenance missing from settings.... Note that Face Recognition and Iris is disabled so if you want those turned on read below. You may bow restart your device and you should feel the phone running a lot smoother especially when running multiple apps.... This gives you more of a Google Stock Android Experience for those like myself that prefer it over all the ****ty Samsung bloat apps.... All the Google Apps you download earlier are your replacement for the Samsung apps that are now disabled... Bixby has also been disabled so that button with no longer work, if you want that on look up Bixby in package Disabler pro and uncheck all the boxes...
Turn On Face/Iris Scanner
In the Package Disabler app search for these and uncheck the boxes
Iris
com.sec.factory.iris.usercamera
com.samsung.android.server.iris
Face
com.samsung.faceservice
com.samsung.android.bio.face.service
If you want to use Google Camera or Open Camera
Make sure to Disable com.sec.android.app.camera and the addons for the stock camera app being
com.sec.factory.camera
com.samsung.android.app.camera.sticker.facear.preload
com.samsung.android.app.camera.sticker.stamp.preload

I'd love some blacked out Google apps. That's what I miss from when I had a rooted phone. This phone looks amazing with blacked out apps. Messages, Google, dialer, calendar and etc.

Ok, here is a pet project I've been working on, search didn't yield that anyone else had posted something similar.
Basically it adds another button on the Hybrid properties launch section, where you would see the different ui buttons, that contains color presets for more apps.
Includes:
Xda app (regular, pro, and tab) (dark theme)
Instagram
Netflix
Gmail
Flipboard
Ingress
Stock clock
Dropbox
Alarm Clock Xtreme
Evernote
MyScript Calculator
News & Weather
Dialer

If you have more color presets, feel free to post them and I'll add them in if they look right.
Flashable zip version: https://www.dropbox.com/s/nxbq57khasraqxx/Z_colors-2013-05-21.zip
Manual version: https://www.dropbox.com/s/oadn3izkqz1k805/Z_colors-2013-05-21.xml
For the manual version, copy the Xml to /system/etc/paranoid/preferences/
Set perm to rw-r--r--
Undo options
There is no one click method to get rid of the applied Zcolors without removing any other modifications you have made in the hybrid properties, this is a limitation of the Hybrid Engine. There are three ways I can think of off of the top of my head to revert these colors:
1. Go to Settings > Hybrid Properties > Apps, then click on the app you want to revert to stock, then click the reset icon (circle arrow with a dot in the middle). Repeat for each app.
OR
2. Using a file explorer, go to /system/etc/paranoid/ and open properties.conf. under ##SYSTEM PREFERENCES you will see a bunch of entries like "com.facebook.katana.colors="FFCBD2DF|B2FFFFFF|FFF FFFFF|FF5975B0|FFFFFFFF". Delete the lines for the apps you don't want the coloring on.
OR
3. Go to Settings > Hybrid Properties > Tools > Reset Properties. This will get rid of all Zcolors and any other modifications you have made to per app colors/dpi. If that doesn't bother you, then this will be the quickest easiest route.
Also, If after doing that, you want the Zcolor option to go away, you can go to /system/etc/paranoid/preferences/ and delete Z_Colors.xml. All my flashable file does is drop that XML in the right folder and set permissions correctly for it.

Do you have the one dated 2013-02-21, or -22?
The first one didn't set permissions correctly.
I just reflashed the -22 on a clean install, and it worked fine.

The PA Hybrid color applier only shows the color configs for the apps you currently have installed.
It does apply all of the color changes to the properties.conf file though, so if you apply this and then install the app later, the coloring should still work.
appearently this is in the playstore ( the updated version) unfortunally can´t find it anymore. Anyone got a link?

What are you looking for?
If it's the ZColors, this is the most updated version, none of my work is in the playstore.
I can always add to it if you have requests, or fix it if something is broken.

My apologies, I confused it with something else. Thank you for your contribution, it´s much appreciated!
I noticed that when I for example open a (gmail)app where the top and bottem bar become white and I leave it for idle so it goes to the lock screen the bars remain white until I unlock the screen and close the app. Is this considered to be a bug? Could it be PA related?
I installed Z colors through the recovery menu, however I´m unable to revert back to the default stock colors. See: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2463398

So i am back xD, with another bug(ish) report when using/having snapcolors installed and activated snapchat has some connection issues on wifi,and doesnt work on 3g connection keeps saying "Could not refresh menssages pl try again"
Cool idea but I got 2 problems. First the size does not work for me and yes I typed the number and tryed double clicking it a lot of different ways. Second, when I click the volume down button once it skips thru like 2 or 3 colours so its kinda hard to go to the one I want. Also please add the default transluscent colour cause after I click thru the colours It isnt there so I have to take a picture again so it comes back. I have a samsung galaxy s4 if it helps and thanks for making the module.

Hello!
I don't have any knowledge about android developing but i have a good idea.
I think everyone want a automover, i mean;
App will move all of media files to sdcard, waiting for answers.
Sorry for spam but
Definitely need a mod for Samsung Keyboard about emojis.
Sounds like something you could do with a simple cron job. What are you envisioning that would require xposed for that?

Actually, if you are talking about switching your type of emojis to either Apple or Google ones there's an app called Emoji Switcher. You need BusyBox installed to make it work. It's on the Google Play Store, check it out.
---------- Post added at 08:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:22 PM ----------
I know some people will not agree with me and say the Google keyboard better, and yes I know there's a customization app for the Google keyboard too. But it doesn't fit my appeal. The Stock S5 keyboard has the numbers up top and isn't so scrunched together. The emojis are there at the press of a button and I've already switched them to Apple emojis. But my only deal with the keyboard is the color, it's not bad, I just want to change it. Not necessarily to black but all sorts of colors, and I'd like to change simple things like letters and symbol colors. Does anyone know a Xposed module for this, I've already looked at Wanam, it doesn't have anything for the keyboard yet. So if someone could direct me to where to get this mod or create it I'd be very thankful. ☺

There's already an app on playstore which does that. Its called 'Redirect File Organizer'
Sorry but thread closed. Please post all xposed module requests here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/index-xposed-modules-collection-post-t2327541
Thanks!
I like a simple OP so ...
Just like the title says this IS and WILL be a CLEAN AOSP rom built from source, I really just build for myself but I don't mind sharing with the community.
You ask why share a basic AOSP rom?, well there are some people here that like a AOSP rom but don't have the time or the resources to build, also at one point I felt that Android in its infancy needed a lot of customization, but now its a lot better, plus with the invention of Xposed there's not enough reason to code in features when you can just download them.
This does not come with Google Apps installed you will have to install the ones you desire just make sure they're compatible with Android 6.0, and also this rom is not rooted so you will need a compatible root solution if you need root.
There is no screen shots since the is a non-themed AOSP rom, which will look like any other AOSP rom so please do not ask, and please be friendly to one another, and also please report anything broken I will try to fix it as I can.

6.0 has RRO compatibility built into the source.
All that is needed is Root and BusyBox.
Running Layers as we speak on a factory ROM.

Yeah but since it will be compatible in the near future, there is no point in adding any flashy features that are xposed-specific into the ROM.

The layers now available are for previous versions.
But there is enough working to create a dark interface. The trick is to use layer combinations.
Suggestion for dark: InversionUi, CommuteUi, Scarlett, Blackish
Start with layers for 'framework', 'systemui', 'settings' and 'velvet' only.
Existing layers(not updated) for keyboard, contacts, calendar etc, will not work or text is not readable.
In the play store is a layer manager available. I prefer to extract them manually and transfer the layer-apk's manually to /system/vendor/overlay. After a reboot the layers are active and copied to vendor/overlay.

Start with layers for 'framework', 'systemui', 'settings' and 'velvet' only.
Existing layers(not updated) for keyboard, contacts, calendar etc, will not work or text is not readable.
In the play store is a layer manager available. I prefer to extract them manually and transfer the layer-apk's manually to /system/vendor/overlay. After a reboot the layers are active and copied to vendor/overlay.

Many have been updated for 6.0.
Right now I am using Evolve and it's partner CommuteUI. Applied through the Layers Manager app (working on 6.0) and the themes stick on reboot.
I understand if you want to bake this in to a ROM, but I'm just passing along the info that Layers works out of the box with stock factory images of 6.0 with root and busybox installed. No need to rely on AOSP or Custom Roms for Layers now. (My point basically and to answer the initial question I quoted)

There are still things not touched, like Google contacts. But I keep watching[emoji1]

No I just suggested a different approach. A layer manager is not needed. There are a lot of nice layers on 'afh'. I download/extract on the PC (add .zip at the name) and delete the layer-apk's I don't use. Transfer to 'system/vendor/overlay' and reboot is enough. So I use root explorer, but layer manager is also good.
The main point is that the device involved needs Root acces. And when you have Root there are alternative. Just sharing it with the community.

Touche.
I don't use Contacts. Just unhid it from Nova and checked. You're right.
Man, I'm spoiled with touch-less interface haha. I RARELY if ever use the phone/contacts app. I just say who I want to call or speak the number. Works better with Tasker cooked in w/ Autovoice.
I also figured you were just listing another way of doing it. It's good to have multiple ways.
Hi.
Thanks for sharing.
Is AOSP SMS application include ?
If yes, is it possible to have an extract of the apk please ?
Cheers

Just a heads up to whoever is using this, there is going to be another release shortly that is much "cleaner" it won't have any of the debugging tools added nor will it have anything that can be found in the PlayStore. This next release is pretty much just barebones and you will need to get a internet browser, camera, gallery app, music app, well you will see whats not there. At any rate I feel that this gives the user more freedom on what they want installed, so this is the new format for this rom and it is complete, the only thing that will happen now is updates to make it better. Also I will be releasing my source for this too if anybody wants to rebuild and add their own spin on it or contribute to the pre-existing rom.

I don't think there is an AOSP messaging app available.

Yeah it is you can just pull it from your phone or extract it out of the update zip.
However its just the same as the Google Messenger app just green instead of blue and doesn't have the extra Google added crap.

But does it have quick reply? And does the action bar color change with the contact that you send the message to?
Thanks!

You know what it does not. I didn't notice that, it looks like they just gave it a facelift.
Hmmm it might not make the next version either.

I'm sorry, what are "LABS"??
Galaxy labs is a new feature of s7 ans s7 edge.
*.Show all apps on home screen:This is an option that’s not really going to offer something special but it quickly shows all your applications on the home screen following which there’s no App Drawer. We had earlier heard rumors that the Android N may not feature the App Drawer & this option is somewhat close to what was rumoured. Once you enable this all the applications would move to the home screen in the order of how they were installed and there’s no other customization offered. If you disable this option a message would appear stating “A separate Apps screen will be created so that you can easily find your most important apps via the Apps icon on the home screen. Any customizations you have previously made to the home screen will be discarded.
*.Quick Dial:This is an option that allows you to simple make a call with long press of the home key and a name. Once enabled it will be used instead of the Google App when you press and hold the Home Key. We gave this feature a try, and looks like its powered with the Samsung’s own proprietaryS-Voice functionand it could not call the person weintended to, following which threwan error on the screen as shown below.
Why would you want to disable your apps draw?
The whole point of it is to remove clutter and rarely used apps from your homescreen, and allow you to customise your homescreen without stupid amounts of icons all over the place making it look ugly like iOS

Because we can. If you will start using iOS and continue using it through 2 years or so, you will understand the idea behind this feature.
