Hi all,
I have several other Android devices at home, all of them runing CM7 or CM9. While I appreciate some of the things the Motorola ROM (GSM here) delivers, I'm missing quite a bit as well:
- grid size on home screen - having 3 widgets fills out completely a screen; I'm looking for a 50% or 100% increase in rows and columns. DPI changer is not able to provide that
- battery reporting is only done in 10% increments; I'm using Circle Battery Widget as a workaround
- no way to toggle 2G/3G with a switch. Using notification toggle because I cannot live without status bar toggles
- provider name is too long in the status bar
- no way to tweak auto light levels
- lock screen does not display any info about missed calls or messages
- notification led does not have any settings
- cannot assign custom shortcuts or wakeups - like pressing both volume buttons to open camera from lock
- no way to change the number of screens in home
- widgets do not get updated after an install, I need to kill the launcher first
- stock gallery looks really sad and performs slowly on zoom
- there is no "charge only" option beneath the usb/mtp/ptp
- no color themes for home screen, so I can use darker colors for power saving
- no themes for email widget, same reason
- email widget uses a lot of power (partial wake) even though the accounts are set to sync once per hour
- I don't see any way to take HDRs with the stock camera app. I thought this was default in ICS
- cannot use any other external sound equalizer - tried mostly with DSPManager
- stock music app does not wake on bluetooth control; if it's paused for more than 30 seconds I need to open it again to be able to resume music
- stock equalizer messes up the volume of the music pretty bad and it compresses the sound
- cannot assign a long press on the back button to kill the current app
On the other hand there are some new custom features which I really like, like the 'disable' application button, smart actions, detailed data usage and data limits, disabling background data, ...
So my question is, how can I enable some of the stuff above without losing a lot of battery life, money or UI integration (I'm thinking metro-like simplistic looks).
I'm also missing the option to disable individual permissions for apps, but the "disable background data" built-in feature fulfills 80% of this. I would have loved to be able to disable location awareness for some apps.
Right now the biggest gripe is the 10% step on battery reporting, I cannot get accurate battery stats. Still, that part is in part filled by BetterBatteryStats.
Having a small but annoying issue here.
I find that if I turn on wifi with widgets or quickpanel in SystemUI, the wifi will take very long, or sometimes never auto connect. However, opening up settings and pressing scan results in instant connection.
Thanks in advance.
I don't have your issue and I use a notification panel created by the Power Toggles. (this was not an advertising message)
Try to create a shortcut to the WI-FI settings by:
- long press on 'desktop'
- select 'Shortcuts'
- scroll to the 'Settings shortcut', click on it;
- scroll to the 'Wi-Fi'
I know this is not so fancy like a widget or another setting app, but should be more quickly to access and I think is a workaround for your issue.
I am running this rom on my Note and I like it a lot. But, I've searched and searched and cannot find how to change the settings on the lockscreen. Specifically, I want to change the weather/temperature from C to F. I've found 3 instances of lockscreen settings in my settings but none of them seem to apply to my question.
Where are the lockscreen weather settings for ParanoidKANGdroid? Thx.
Open the main "settings" menu. Touch "interface" then "clock widget". You'll see weather in there. After your done adjusting press the checkmark in upper right hand corner! That's what must people forget to do.
settings - Interface - Clock Widget - Weather - checkmark!
I found this Gem looking for a Xposed module. I searched and didn't see this here so here it is. Very power little module and the dev seems to respond to all questions. Check it out!!! Buy him a beer and like his thread
I loaded it on my Verizon GS4 running Stock, rooted, 4.4.2

Works for some but not all. Try using Triangle Away if Wanam doesn't work.
well this is useful thanks
I was going to flash another ROM but I figured I'd give e exposed a try. With all the modules available I can get almost everything I want without even changing from the stock ROM. Gets a little confusing with all the different settings but fun and works great for me. Jesse

All great modules from xposed installer.

Holy crap man, this is so old news...
The Wanam Xposed ROM isn't even supported by the developer for it anymore! That's how old this is...
Every Touchwiz user with xposed uses Wanam.
You're getting some hate for this being old news but I think this is a well written post that is certainly useful to those members around here that are new and inexperienced with xposed. Good write-up man.
Working tether Verizon s4 on NC5
Hey All,
I'm sure other's already know this, but i couldn't find a working method in the threads to enable wireless tethering for my wife's Verizon S4 (NC5, rooted / stock / Deodexed).
I installed the Xposed framework installer,rebooted.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/xposed-installer-versions-changelog-t2714053
Then in downloads section, downloaded the "X Tether" module by dymmeh.
I installed, in modules section-activated, rebooted... and bingo!!
Please thank dymmeh, rovo89, and Tungstwenty, and the Xposed team if this helps!!!

This is not working. on Verizon Note 3, 4.4.2 NC2, and the persistent data icon is always on.
Wanam isn't disabling it. Wanam also thinks it is disabled, because wanam shows it on or off as I mark it.
Any idea how I can remove the persistent 4GLTE icon?

Ok. By the way, I figured out how to solve it. Here is the code that works.
Code:
public class DataConnectionIconFix implements IXposedHookLoadPackage {
@Override
public void handleLoadPackage(LoadPackageParam lpparam) throws Throwable {
if(!lpparam.packageName.equals("com.android.systemui"))
return;
Class<?> NetworkController = findClass("com.android.systemui.statusbar.policy.NetworkController", lpparam.classLoader);
Class<?> Operator = null;
for(Class<?> c : NetworkController.getDeclaredClasses())
if(c.getSimpleName().equals("Operator"))
Operator = c;
findAndHookMethod(Operator, "getOperatorFromString", java.lang.String.class, XC_MethodReplacement.returnConstant(getStaticObjectField(Operator, "OPEN")));
}
}
Hi folks,
As part of a project to minimise my phone use, I'm wading deep into the murky waters of Honor 9 notification management. Bear with me.
Phone: STF-L09
EMUI: 8.0.0
Android: 8.0.0
Launcher: Nova Prime
2 x Google accounts, personal and work
GMAIL
I don't want to see any notifications from my work e-mail at all, but for my personal email, I'd like to see a status bar icon when I've unlocked the phone and have new messages - no lock screen notifications though! I'm tweaking settings via Gmail App > Settings > {choose account} > Manage Notifications, which takes me into the Huawei 'Notifications management' settings menu for the specified account.
For the work e-mail, I've just toggled 'Allow notifications' to 'off', and job done
For the personal, I've toggled the following settings;
- Allow Notifications - Yes
- Display in the Status Bar - Yes
- Banners - Yes
- Lock Screen Notifications - Never
- Priority Display - Off
- Ringtone - Yes
- Vibrate - Yes
If I go via the phone settings to Settings > Apps and notifications > Apps > Gmail > Notifications, It reflects these settings, with notifications allowed, but then 2 different entries under 'email' reflecting the above.
Despite this, I'm never notified of new emails to my personal account at all. What have I done wrong?
GOOGLE CALENDAR
I want to see lock screen notifications for both of my calendars, but I'd like to hide the content of events in my personal calendar. The settings don't seem to have the same granularity provided to the Gmail app - am I missing something, or is this just a Google oversight/quirk?
Probably more to come as I continue to tweak my set-up
