Hi massoh

I'll detail the below suggestion from coldmethod

- Open Echoe ROM zip file with your favourite zip manager.

- Extract the file named "SamsungIME.apk" that will be probably located at /system/app/ folder of the ZIP file

- If not yet, send that apk to your device.

- Now with your favourite android file manager (I love Total Commander), navigate to yours device /system/app and rename the existent SamsungIME.apk to SamsungIME.bak

- Copy the extracted one to that folder

- Change permissions of the file to 644 (rw-r--r--)

- Reboot immediately to recovery and flash AllBacksBlack again.

Please advise about your progress.

There are still some questioning that you've didn't provided answers.

SystemUI.apk can be found onto the same ROM zip file at /system/priv-app/ folder.

Nice regards.

I posted the files above by the name of last_chance and black_test. Just download the zip files and put them on your SD card. Then flash them in recovery. If it doesn't work you have to do as said by master Kdio or flash the just bloat installer of echoe and choose stock keyboard.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] massoh:
Same... after install the 2 files .. The strange is the suggestion ì in white
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] 4aces:
Open echoe v13 in recovery and choose to install just bloat. Then look for keyboard and install the stock one. If it didn't work report back mate.

[MENTION=251422]massoh[/MENTION] so you took the more advanced way:D congratulations on your work with files and zips. If in the next days you feel the need to do it again. It is the normal sign of ORD. As we all had it;)

GUUURRRLLLLLL...... just get over it! hahahaha....... I know u don't want me to use ur theme but I have to admit it's my favorite even dough it breaks peoples wifi! Any way instead of hatin u could help me get this thing running on my n9005. Mobile Odin Pro doesn't flash it correctly and I am currently out of ideas. Is there another way of flashing this without a costum recovery?

Hi massoh

Glad to hear that!!! And thank you for the opportunity onto your device .. it's our honor.

Hope you enjoy the Blackness :D

Nice regards.

Mr chieco

What do you are asking now is exactly what I've first tried here but, unfortunately, you didn't received my words very well. This time will be different .... ok ...

And you keep going ... :( ... Again I will have to correct you:

breaks yours wi-fi only

.

Almost all customizations one will find on XDA, including this one, are developed to be flashed using Custom Recoveries. ROMs, kernels, themes and mods. All of them requires that Android system is not running at the time of the changes and the Stock recovery doesn't provide support for flashing and therefore, tripping Knox flag. Here we are all in the "black" side.

So, the answer for your question is: no.

Live long and prosper.

Mr chieco

The below suggestion is plausible but untested. Undergoing it is strictly yours responsibility.

- Pull from your system the same files modded by ABB (list @ OP)

- On a desktop, extract ABB ZIP file

- Now, browsing ABB's /source/system/ folder, respectively open (do not extract) with your favourite ZIP Manager the pulled apk

- Drag each /res/ folder from ABB to the opened apk replacing its content (a replace question dialog HAS to appear if doing things right)

- Now push back all those modded apk's to their original places onto yours device setting permissions accordingly (644 rw-r--r--)

Note: "pull" and "push" can be accomplished with adb commands.

EDIT: Your setup accept adb commands right?

LATER EDIT: No Enhanced for you. Never use any ABB Enhanced with Stock ROM.

Please share your experience.

[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] coldmethod:
Hey JakeOcn,

You will need a custom recovery to install this theme, if you already have one Knox is already history. I Can't recall any reports from the Exynos camp. If you do have a custom recovery just back-up and give it a go. There isn't anything in the core files that will break anything important.

Let us know if you go ahead and do it.

Cheers.

[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Kdio:
Hi Jake

Thanks for the report.

From the described misbehaviour, as you can even still open Settings and IME, we probably may rule out from FC: SystemUI, framework-res and twframework-res.

Anyway, it's strange the FC's as there are only PNG's in the mod. You flashed ONLY the file named "*Core*" right? Any Enhanced released would indeed FC your stock ROM.

Could you please provide us with some more details about yours device setup? Firmware version, any other modification like frameworks or so ?

Thank you for your support.

[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] JakeOcn:
Hi Kdio,

I have stock N900XXUDND1. I disabled xposed before flashing core module, and yes I only flashed the core module, so everything stock besides an ad blocker
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] coldmethod:
Strange behaviour indeed, maybe when I am finished with the variants I will have a look into this. Out of curiosity, is the ROM you're using odexed or deodexed?

Has anyone had any success on the exynos?
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] JakeOcn:
it's odexed. And thanks for taking a look into it whenever you have the chance

[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] CodeWarriorFX:
Hello coldmethod,

I went to the 1st page of this forum thread and installed the T-mobile version, AllBacksBlack.Core.n900.15062014 v1.3 Non Aroma Installer. Of course I made a backup first and then installed this version.

The phone, contacts and messages apps wont open. After booting the phone it rapidly gave me the messages "Unfortunately, contacts has stopped". Same for message app. For the phone app, it gives the same error message of the contacts app. The rest of the apps shows the black theme properly, like the clock and music app.

Hope this helps you to debug the issue.

Thank you.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Kdio:
Thanks Code

That's exactly how a development can evolve. Bold users like you supporting and well understanding it.

We're all very thankful and will be working harder to accomplish all T-Mobile users expectatives :good:

Just a little piece of the puzzle ... could you please state which Custom ROM you're driving now? (link)

Nice regards.

[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] CodeWarriorFX:
Thanks coldmethod. I'm using the stock kitkat ROM from AT&T. My only mods are root (using geohot apk), S5 transparent weather widget & Safestrap 3.72 (TWRP 2.7.0.0). I removed some of the pre-installed apps to increase storage & battery life.

Best regards.

Aroma poll

Hi Master Kdio and master coldmethod(hope you got your well deserved beauty sleep;) ),

I would like to say something on the Aroma poll.

I voted for no Aroma because basically all it does is give you the option to install and to quit(and that is really all the option you need). So it is one step (installation) made into two steps (open Aroma and choose installation). How ever if the options to choose the enhanced files in Aroma would be implemented, I think I would have voted for Aroma. The problem here(I guess) is that the ROMs update so frequently, that it would be a real pain in the a** to rewrite the updater-script every time.

So I guess no Aroma really is the better option for all of us:)

Regards

4aces

Edit. Just installed the enhanced Omega v17 files (which are still titled v16 in Aroma:p) and they work perfectly fine with Omega v18 as well:good:

[MENTION=4223026]coldmethod[/MENTION] I used to have this "WOW an Aroma" when I was just flashing but now with working on it I'm more like "I could also just flash the zip in recovery". The thing which made me think was a post stating that "the ROM is bad because it doesn't have an Aroma anymore", when the real work is what you install and not how you do it.

To sum it up: I would be more happy if the theme improves(if that is even possible) than I would be to have an Aroma.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] coldmethod:
Hey 4aces,

I asked the question to gauge how people feel about Aroma, I think it makes flashing something more comfortable for some users. Personally I'm not a fan (especially when there are no options), it just slows the flashing process.

I have thought of putting everything together (variants/enhancements/ABB apps) and giving options, but I'm a bit of a way off from that yet.

Another reason I'm not fond of Aroma, I always forget this.

Thanks for the feed back.

Edit: [MENTION=2365012]4aces[/MENTION]

Of course the theme can improve ;), I've been working on something for a while now... but there is not enough time in the day :(

Anyway to restore the old keyboard? i find the theme really awesome but it's really hard to type on it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] el mario:
Thanks. But i don't know where to drop what file
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] 4aces:
Hi

You have to dirty flash your ROM again to restore...you won't loose any files if you do it right. But you can also open keyboard settings and enable continuous writing (it's like swipe just stock) that way writing will be easy

You have to download ES file explorer and enable super user in the es settings. Than you navigate to your zip file and keep pressing it. Choose unzip(or just click on the zip look for the file you need and unzip just that file). Now I think you have to rename it so it is called SecMms.apk by clicking on it and choose rename. Now you keep clicking on the file and choose copy and navigate to device/system/private app and paste. last thing you need to do is keep clicking on the file and choose properties. There you see check boxes. You need to check them so it says rw rr. Now reboot and you're done.

It sounds harder than it is:p

Only thing is, i think, the apk is not installed and cant install it either.

But still trying...
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] darkelfa2:
The thing is, I already deleted the rom files as they were too big and I barely had empty storage, I backed up my rom before flashing the theme, but I don't want to do a restore or do a dirty flash as only the keyboard is bothering me. Can't I just replace the keyboard apk with the original one? If yes, can someone please provide me with the original apk?

Don't have that sorry mate I could serve with omega and echoe at the moment

Try this one if you want to...but that's your responsibility if anything goes wrong
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] coldmethod:
I hope you got this sorted el mario, 4aces has given you the correct information. BTW, you don't have to "install" these apk's just push to device then set correct permissions > Reboot. As for naming the APK, it should be SecMms_Blue.apk. If you flashed the app from the OP it would have deleted SecMms.apk if it existed; don't forget to also push SecTelephonyProvider.apk to system\app and set permissions also, otherwise you will get FC's.

darkelfa2, if you pushed the IME 4aces posted you should be good. BTW, what was the issue with the IME? Were the letters a dark grey? If so, once you have got it back to stock re-flash the theme and you should have white letters on a black background.

No need to quote the Dev of x-note. .. he is not involved in theming here and probably has a bunch of other stuff to do.

The enhanced file is for v17 and therefor it is no wonder it doesn't work on v18.

Reflash v18 and than just the core files and send the files needed (look in op which and where to find) to coldmethod

Mr Kdio

thank you very much for not abandoning me with my problem and showing me another method.

So I did everything you told me and it worked except the Phone App :( (I guess something has to go always wrong)

I even did it twice because I thought maybe something went the first time wrong but same result. This is how it looks

Do you have a idea why it looks like this?

Another thing I noticed is this

I hope you understand what I'm trying to show you. You can only notice this on amoled screens. The parts of the screen which are replaced with ur files are black how it should be but the rest is dark grey! I know that samsung had issues with amoled screens on scrollable places where the fine lines caused purple lines and shadows if you for example scrolled up and down in ur file browser. They pushed a update and "fixed" the purple lines by putting a dark grey background image. ALL I WANT TO KNOW is, does ur Theme turn them back to black or not? Maybe it does but it didn't work because of my method of installing ur theme yknow?

The next thing i wanna touch on is this

I know this is subjective and personal taste is different but I have to admit I find the replacement arrows -> and the on and off toggles are really really outdated and ugly!!! and the on/off toggles seem low quality and not sharp.

My suggestion would be the toggles from this theme Nue Ora on the last preview picture u can see the toggles and back arrows from iOS 7 please take a look at this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JXk0rgiQSvM

I know there are many Orange accents which i find really sexy in combination with black but they don't have to be. I really like how minimalistic and modern they look. Like I said just a suggestion maybe you take it on board.

And I saw u also replace the contacs picture from Samsung Human head to android which again looks like android 2.3 or something old. I Personally prefer the stock samsung ones.

I believe I found something you missed to theme :victory: I noticed this back in February on my S4

Clock->Create alarm->Alarm tone->Add maybe it's me but like I said i believe it was even on my S4 like that.

So at last I wanna post my device information maybe you will need it.

I also wanna note that I was playing with mobile odin and somehow my note 3 wouldn't boot anymore after trying to flash something it was stuck on booting recovery! I was forced to flash this stock rom with odin om my pc. So every thing i did was on a brand new flashed stock rom!

That's it :D love u:fingers-crossed:
