remove/disable systemUI in AOSP build - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I building my custom AOSP and would like to remove or disable the systemUI completely.
I can achieve this using adb with "pm disable com.android.systemui" but I wonder if there is a way to disable it in the aosp build so that its automatically disabled already when flashing my own AOSP build.
Basically I want to include the "pm disable com.android.systemui" command in the build. Maybe in the init.rc file or something.
Thank you for any help!

How to disable specific services of any app by shell command?

I am making a modded version of cm11 and i need to disable some services of some apps. I know there are apps available for that but i need to make init.d scripts to simplify it for all the users. So how can I disable specific services of some app by shell command? (to be used in init.d script). Thanks in advance.

Key Features
Based on @foobar66 GoogleWiz ROM
NX Kernel
Samsung SoundAlive Dolby Atmos
Shell Script Advanced Features (SSAF) *See post #2
Updates will come in small service packs instead of a complete ROM update unless necessary
Samsung Gear might work out of the box
Removed some tweaks that I deemed useless.
Removed a few Google apps (Drive, Map, YouTube, etc) from the ROM, you can install them from Play Store instead
Emergency Launcher, UltraPowerSavingMode, SmartCapture, SmartSwitch, LiveWallpaper
Removed GoogleWiz's customizing script
Installation
Backup is always recommended
You should be able to dirty flash from stock/GoogleWiz ROM
You might not be able to boot, which is why 1. is important
Install any patch or cumulative update zip.

I left the navigation bar disabled in build.prop accidentally
Edit the last line in build.prop:
Code:
qemu.hw.mainkeys=1
to
Code:
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
and reboot.
or use the custom menu to re-enable it then reboot
or edit the build.prop and reflash ROM
EDIT:
or flash the attached flashable patch zip

I'd refrain from adding 'mod' myself that requires to be redone every security update as it wastes time.
Feature will be added to the custom menu instead as that is portable, work across updates and even devices.
Everything that's doable in shell script shall be done in shell script.

[MAGISK MOD] Android Q tweaks

Android Q hidden settings enabler​Created by @kingbri​
Disclaimer: I am not responsible if you flash this and make your phone into a brick, blow it up, create nuclear war, etc. You are flashing this at your own risk (However, it's very likely this won't happen)​
This is a simple magisk module that adds a script to your /system/bin directory​
What it does: Shows android Q hidden settings for well-known features (example: Dark mode)​
Current features:
Android Q dark theme (system-wide and app-forced)
Navigation bar tweaks (Removed back button and new Q quick switching mechanism)
How to use:
ADB
Enter an adb shell
enter the command "qmod"
Follow the instructions
On-phone
open terminal emulator
su
enter the command "qmod"
follow the instructions
You can also use this without root!​Just grab the script by running this command:
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bdashore3/q_tweaks/q_master/system/bin/qmod > /sdcard/qmod
and follow the steps​
Steps:
Push the file to /sdcard
Enter an adb shell
cd to sdcard
chmod 0777 qmod
type "sh qmod"
follow the script

Credits: MishaalRahman (for getting all his journal posts), paphonb (for the debug_pixel launcher), and anyone else who figured out these tweaks/were behind-the-scenes for this stuff.
Please put any hidden android Q features that you find in here (With the code or it won't be accepted) or open an issue on github along with the code necessary to enable that feature.
mine again
Thanks, this is mine
I am confused, is this a Magisk module to Enable hidden features that already exist in Android Q or a module to add Android Q features to Pie?

For me it causes issues especially with pixel launcher
With Q beta 2 update, nope. Changes to launcher so dev options limited. Now I did find that using this link instructions I could get file permissions to revert back to Pie. the "sandbox memory, files protection" is turned off. File managers and app can then access just like before. Now I started with a complete wipe, Q beta 2 factory image, adb enabled, run script,. As warned resets phone, I then added my apps, data, pics through device to device transfer.
https://developer.android.com/preview/privacy/scoped-storage#test-behavior-change
adb shell sm set-isolated-storage off
adb shell getprop sys.isolated_storage_snapshot
should return with flag = false
Your mileage may vary, data may be lost..... bla, bla, bla. Lawnchair v2 alpha works great too!

[GUIDE] Bromite SystemWebView with OTA Update Survival

Tested with:
Code:
ArrowOS Version: arrow-11.0
ArrowOS Build Type: OFFICIAL
ArrowOS Build Variant: VANILLA
Device Name: POCO X3 NFC (surya)
This modification makes use of the addon.d survival mechanism found in almost all (if not all) custom ROMs, which is leading back to CyanogenMod, and allows the installation of Bromite SystemWebView with automatic reinstatement after a manual or OTA system update.
Create the folder /sdcard/Android/addon.d/webview and download Bromite SystemWebView to that location.
Place the following script with the name 51-webview.sh into /system/addon.d and make it executable (755), which can either be done from a root shell or through recovery after mounting /system with read-write access:
Code:
#!/sbin/sh
#
# ADDOND_VERSION=2
#
################################
# Restore Bromite SystemWeview #
################################
case "$1" in
post-restore)
AD="/sdcard/Android/addon.d"
D="/product/app/webview/webview.apk"
mount /dev/block/mapper/product /product 2> $AD/mount_error.log
[ -f $D ] && cp $AD/webview/arm64_SystemWebView.apk $D 2> $AD/webview_error.log
umount /product
;;
esac
That's it, either reinstall the current version of the used custom ROM through recovery or make an OTA update.
Now the catch with this was, that for some unknown reasons, addon.d scripts see the device mapping different than from a running system or recovery, please see this issue for details.
ArrowOS 11 has webview.apk in /product/app/webview/, but this may be different in other ROMs. In that case, simply have a look and change the destination ($D) in the script accordingly.
The script is safe to use as nothing gets modified if the webview file is not already found at the given destination.
To uninstall this modification, simply remove the file /system/addon.d/51-webview.sh.
You can also temporarily disable this modification by removing/renaming arm64_SystemWebView.apk from/in /sdcard/Android/addon.d/webview and everything gets back to default with the next system update.
BTW @unixandria's Webview Switcher Magisk Module is not working on Android 11 (yet), which is why I was looking into creating this mod in the first place. Please have a look at this issue in the Webview Switcher GitHub Repo.

My "webview.apk" shows up under "/system/product/app/webview" as well as "/product/app/webview". I think "/system/product" is just a link to "/product".
If I can figure out the mount command for "/product", I'm going to try this.
Thanks for this information.

Indeed, that file system path can be different depending on ROM, but you can easily find out yourself and simply change the location the shown script.

Source? Or, do you mind elaborate the "how to" process?
Before, i use mi8 with pixelexperience pie, which is easy to convert user app to system app. Now, i upgrade it to A11, webview folder scatter all across subfolder. I dont know which one should be replaced by new webview.
At first is good job

[GUIDE] HDR Fix with OTA Update Survival

Tested with:
Code:

ArrowOS Build Variant: VANILLA
Device Name: POCO X3 NFC (surya)
This modification makes use of the addon.d survival mechanism found in almost all (if not all) custom ROMs, which is leading back to CyanogenMod, and allows the installation of @janhammer504's YouTube HDR & Chrome Yellow Tint - Real Fix with automatic reinstatement after a manual or OTA system update.
Create the folder /sdcard/Android/addon.d/hdrfix, download and unpack YouTube HDR & Chrome Display Fix (v2) - Final.zip to that location.
Place the following script with the name 52-hdrfix.sh into /system/addon.d and make it executable (755), which can either be done from a root shell or through recovery after mounting /system with read-write access:
Code:
#!/sbin/sh

umount /product
;;
esac
That's it, either reinstall the current version of the used custom ROM through recovery or make an OTA update.
Now the catch with this was, that for some unknown reasons, addon.d scripts see the device mapping different than from a running system or recovery, please see this issue for details.
ArrowOS 11 has the two XML files in /product/vendor_overlay/29/etc, but this may be different in other ROMs. In that case, simply have a look and change the destination folder ($DD) in the script accordingly.
The script is safe to use as nothing gets modified if the given destination folder is not found.
To uninstall this modification, simply remove the file /system/addon.d/52-hdrfix.sh.
You can also temporarily disable this modification by removing/renaming the two XLM files from/in /sdcard/Android/addon.d/hdrfix and everything gets back to default with the next system update.
Hint: You may want to watch the changelog for the used ROM and remove that modification once the ROM developers have implemented that fix by themselves.
Although working as supposed to, my approach for applying this fix is more of a proof of concept to me, as I wanted to find out how to make use of the addon.d survival mechanism.
For anyone else looking for an easier way to apply that fix (till your ROM developer has taken care of this), @janhammer504 has already provided the according Magisk Module.
FYI This fix will be implemented in the next build of ArrowOS, so this modification is no longer needed if using that custom ROM.
Is there any magisk module for fix? I'm noob Now using Havoc os 4.3 and don't want to flash arrow os and format data and install everything again Thanks in advance.
