I have apk of an app, but the design is so obsolete. I want to edit the whole layout, and lets say bring material design to, and I'm not thinking of any functionality changes.

I've already tried apkeditor, but that doesn't solve the point.

Any suggestions on what I need to do?

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] icemanscion:
Ok, so I haven't been an HTC user since the HD2 (Loved that device). Bought a T-Mobile branded one m8 and got the carrier unlock code with the phone. Unlocked it, used all in one toolkit to unlock/root/twrp. Now I didn't have any issues with the phone (got mms and 4g lte no problem) but sick of the bloat, t-mobile startup screen etc. As I'm new to the HTC game, is S-Off worth getting for the $25? I'm wondering if the ATT radio will make my phone work any better, or an AT&T rom (stock or custom) would improve the phones connectivity. Sometimes people say i'm cutting out during a phone call (I live in Chicago, this usually never happens to me). Any advice would be greatly appreciated, I have no problem paying $25 , just don't want to if it's not needed.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
Personally, I'd S-OFF and then flash the Dev Edition RUU so, in essence, make the device an unbranded handset free of bloat
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] icemanscion:
I went ahead and got S-Of and flashed Insert Coin. What I'm wondering is if flashing an ATT radio will help strengthen my connectivity (the LTE seems slow).
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jshamlet:
Assuming you are with T-mobile, the answer is probably no, and it may actually make things worse - especially if you are concerned about LTE. T-mobile and AT&T are both GSM providers, and you can switch between them, but they don't perfectly overlap in terms of bands used.

That said, since you are S-off, you can try it and see what happens. If you don't feel it is an improvement, put it back on the T-mobile radio.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] icemanscion:
I'm actually using AT&T, that's why I was wondering if the Radio change would help. The phone was originally a T-Mobile phone that was carrier unlocked via a code tmobile gave my friend.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jshamlet:
Ah, then yes, you should switch radios - and for the same reason.

I would also suggest switching to the Developer Edition software. It is functionally identical to the AT&T version, minus the AT&T (or T-mobile) crap. In fact, the DE and AT&T versions only differ in CID - they share the same MID.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] twe90kid:
Are you waiting out on updating for next weeks Tmobile update? At this current moment, w/ Xposed 3.0 Alpha3, we still don't know if we will ever get support (as the dev said). I currently have the phone setup pretty much dependent on Xposed. Not sure how I will setup the phone again without some of the stuff Xposed has to offer.

List of modules:

Complete Action Plus - Used because Samsung's Complete Action feature is a bit gimmickly and this one allows you to properly setup which apps you want by default.

GravityBox - This is used because I want to change/remap my "recent key" to "menu" instead.

Greenify - no need to explain

Network Speed Indicator is perfect for the Notification Box. Yes this can be replaced.

PerAppFonts - Used to change the apps in my chat app... No replacement w/out Xposed

Samsung Camera Fix - Now I can launch Quickpic directly from Camera App

Screen Filter - Used with tasker to kill bluescreen that hurts your eyes

Secure Setting - Paired w/ Tasker since it can control GPS, Radios, Power Saving, and etc

Wanam - too many functions here

XHangouts - To edit Hangout settings

Youtube Adaway - blocks youtube ads

YourTube - Used for automatically selecting 4k stream and changing display menu at launch of Youtube App

God I wish this list wasn't so long that I became dependent.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] MajorTom_:
Nope. I bought the device because I liked it. Not because I liked it and it could run xposed.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] twe90kid:
I've been using this phone since launch. What i'm trying to say is... will you be holding out on the Lollipop update because Xposed isn't supported..
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] mgbotoe:
Dont think anyone will miss it really. You can always go back to kitkat and use xpose so it is not really a thing to "miss"

That is the joy of choices...new update because it got pretty colors and new lockscreen/notification settings? or stay with the old that does EVERYTHING you require from it?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] twe90kid:
LOL hard choices! :p
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] mgbotoe:
You have to remember...we have several developers who are not lazy to actually modify the roms...check out some of the few lollipop roms laying to see what i mean if you haven't already ...granted, they do not do any of what you listed LMAO!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] MajorTom_:
No need to hold out. Xposed is a luxury to me.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] twe90kid:
I've already tried one and flashed back to kitkat.

I'm trying to see if there's replacements to kill off that xposed list.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] BACARDILIMON:
Not me. Never used it and don't think I ever will

BAD ASS NOTE 4
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] VeNuMuS:
Actually most of those mods have been manually added into some Lollipop Roms already. So no I won't miss xposed. It's better to have it as a built in for stability purposes
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] twe90kid:
I just flashed to Lollipop TEKXodus N4 URv1.6

One thing that I use is Greenify GCM push. Seems like you can't use GCM push when Xposed doesn't work.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] flipq88:
The only thing I really care about is YouTube adaway and mw manager. I hate youtube ads, and I love that I can shrink any app by sliding from the corner.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Amd4life:
without Xprivacy, the android ecosystem is useless to me personally.

without the ability to keep my data, MY data, I would rather go get a iphone.

I do wish another option was available, a ton of usable mods are being hampered due to one add on (albeit a major one)

certainly not complaining since I can't code, Ill just stick with 4.4.4 and wait.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] flexxoo:
What about if you update and install dual Boot and run cm12 in the second ROM with xposed and that's it!!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] jazzmachine:
Thanks buddy, very good to know :) Regarding stability, no question that your statement is fact. Shines some bright light on this news, posted by [MENTION=4419114]rovo89[/MENTION] today along with news of a new LP alpha...

I will personally miss the ability to use Xposed mainly due to the vast amount of customization options that it offers to users. While it is certainly preferable that various mods are baked into ROMs, there are some incredibly powerful modules that either can't or are highly unlikely to be included in any custom ROMs. I decided to go through the modules that I'm using and (attempt) to evaluate the likelihood/possibility that their effects could/would be included in a custom ROM (or replicated by non-xposed dependent apps). Here's my take, would love to hear the thoughts of others :good:

Amplify: Surely. Most ROMs improve battery life vs. stock anyway. Wakelocks/services/alarms can be "tamed" by other means.

CPU Freq in Statusbar: Maybe not in the statusbar, but Dynamic (Kat at least, have yet to try Pop) has it as well as the CPU gov in the notification panel. Better than "good enough" :D

Coolify: A newer module that I don't think many people are aware of... but absolutely should be! :) Giving it a look in the Play store will give you a better idea of what it does than a brief description. Really a fantastic app/module... frequently updated and each new version works better than the last! I also like that it shows the battery temp in the status bar. If I were crazy greedy, would prefer that it showed CPU core 0 temp, but I'm not, so happy to keep an eye on the battery ;) I doubt that the full effect would be implemented in a ROM, but I'd think that it could be to some degree.

Greenify: Similar effect built into a ROM? Sounds like a TON of work... will be missed.

No lock home: Was very happy to learn that this is built into LP itself... good call!

PlayPermissionsXposed: A module I consider quite important but wouldn't expect to see it in a ROM. AppOps (already baked into ROMs) is far more useful though anyway.

UnbelovedHosts (paid version): Similar to AdAway, and KILLER as an addition to it. It's very rare that I see an ad of any kind on my phone. The unlock key allows to blocked hosts lists to be auto-updated. Will be missed.

Unicon: Purely cosmetic but I love this module. IMO it's the ultimate "UI consistency" tool. Along with my icon pack of choice (Velur, hands down) my (Nova Prime backed) UI looks... appealing ;) Too "specialized" to be baked into a ROM I would imagine. Will really miss this one.

Xposed Additions (pro): Please tell me that there are LP ROMS that enable key remapping... PLEASE! (Can't handle menu key = recents. It's WRONG I tells ya! WRONG!!!)

XuiMod: Another strictly cosmetic effect, but SO SWEET! Allows you to use animations from various ROMs, so.... yeah.

Huge thanks [MENTION=1843791]VeNuMuS[/MENTION] for allowing me to view to inability to use Xposed in a different light. LP, here I come :good:
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] twe90kid:
[MENTION=5057596]jazzmachine[/MENTION]

Not having Greenify paid options is going to suck bad. Especially GCM push
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] ThR1LL:
If you guys miss Screen Filter you could always download Twighlight from the play store
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] lazer9:
I do not plan on moving off my current setup until/if Xposed is fully up & functional with TouchWiz & Lollipop.

Unless T-Mobile is making Lollipop make my phone have secks w/ me... Nope, nah ah. Can't live without Xposed! :silly:
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] donnyp1:
Don't use exposed. Don't see the value. Never have, never will
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] twe90kid:
Found out how to change this..

You can use Root Explorer:

Make sure you grant root and Mount R/W

Then go to /system/usr/keylayout

Modify file Generic.kl

Look for "Key 254"

Change it to Menu, Save, exit, and reboot.

Now I need to figure out how to change double press home to launch recent apps.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] jazzmachine:
THANK YOU my friend! You will certainly have some help in attempting to crack that second remap! :highfive:
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] twe90kid:
Trying to figure out the double press remap
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] mgbotoe:
given what rovo had said here, https://github.com/rovo89/XposedTools/issues/3#issuecomment-96386801

I sure as hell wont miss out on updates for something "that may never come"
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] RaiderWill:
That's Progress..

Me Personally? Yes.... I'm curious to see how T-Mobile has stabilized the unstable operating system we know as Lollipop v. 5._ ._ :cool:

But.. what makes me shudder is.. This Truly Is The End Of A GREAT Era as far as Samsung Flagship devices are concerned.

The S6 makes me want to puke.. :cool: it's an iPhone in Android clothing.. and you just know that the Note 5 will be stripped of it's SD-Card & Removable Battery as well..

And now... Xposed on 5._._ TW based ROM's may never happen..

I for one, am Downloading and Installing Rapture & FireKat setting them up, and saving them to my computer.. because ( and it's understandable ) the Developer's will reach a point they will no longer support these OUTSTANDING KitKat ROM's..

If you are a Samsung Fan,

The End Of Micro-SD

The End Of Removable Batteries

The End Of Xposed Support For Our TW Based ROM's

I for one will Forever keep my Galaxy Note 4.. and Forever keep the Rapture & FireKat ROM's with Xposed setup to the Max..

I want to be able to look back at this GREAT ERA of "Having It All"

I'm sure I'll upgrade devices at some point like most of you will... and be forced into the cage of that manufacturer's device..

But I'll NEVER forget this moment in 2015.. that's for Damn Sure. :cool:
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] twe90kid:
Uh ok.. Not sure how Xposed has anything to do with s6 and removable batteries or the sdcard. But if you insist on going that far.. Sure
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] chong67:
Anyone on LP can answer this:

Can I turn of the volume warning thing?

Can I turn off the alarm icon?

Can I get rid of the AM/PM?

Can I get rid of the battery icon and replace with percentage?

It NOT, then I am saying with KK.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] YrrchSebor:
I will miss the App Settings module, but that might be more of an issue on my Tab S than on Note 4. We'll see!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] masri1987:
i for one won't switch over until xposed is avail, and if it never gets updated for TW then i will be an AOSP user if i must.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] nique0201:
Closed works on lollipop you just have to get the alpha build
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] twe90kid:
No it does not work. Someone needs to read.

Alpha build does not support Samsung TW Lollipop roms. Even if you try to install, it would bootloop.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] vponomarev:
I use quite a bit of modules with XPosed, but I will really miss App Settings. I'm sure everything else can be modded directly in the ROM, but not sure so much about App Settings.

So for now, I'm going to wait it out and see if XPosed starts supporting LP TW. I don't care that much about TW and may be I will be looking at CM ROMs.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] knarfies:
i have to agree. i was disappointed in no xposed and figured id hold out till xposed worked on touchwiz but it may never happen. By going with a non touchwiz rom, we lose the features that were the reason for buying the note series. My biggest app is per app settings. I like to lower the DPI for apps individually such as google music. Stock DPI looks huge and terrible. IDK though, i might just have to take the plunge and say goodbye to xposed.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] vponomarev:
What TW features are you talking about? Do you mean stylus specifically, as it's probably the only thing that differentiates Note from other devices.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] twe90kid:
A lot of things..

S-Pen, one hand mode, etc etc
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] jazzmachine:
It is entirely possible to use the S-Pen on any AOSP ROM.

See [APP][ROOT] SPenCommand: Spen for all AOSP and unofficial ROMs

Also look at NoteBuddy and a handful of other apps (these two are the apps I recall off the top of my head; haven't (yet) run a non-TW ROM on my N4).

Edit: I've bought and use the app SPenCommander by the same dev. It's (by far) the best app I've found to add any app to the multiwindow bar and/or SPen window launcher
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] NXLTrauma25:
I agree with you but I have used the cm spen detector and app as well as papyrus. You can set it up for pretty much identical spen functionality but I totally understand what you are saying.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] tobalman:
Alpha version is out

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3034811
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] jazzmachine:
DO NOT attempt to install on a TW-based ROM. This info is found many places including the thread you linked.

Edit: C&P from that thread's OP

Known issues:

- It seems to boot loop on Samsung stock ROMs! Update: Samsung has changed quite a few things in their version of ART. It will take more time to adjust Xposed for it.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] vponomarev:
I can see how this may be useful to some people, but I wasn't buying my Notes because of some software features and can probably live without any of what TW provides.

My previous Note (Note II) was on KK CM ROM and the only thing in stock TW ROM that I (kind of) missed was the alarm clock widget because of how easy it makes it to set and change the alarms. I tried to port it, but there were just too many differences between CM and TW.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] knarfies:
yeah, i have a ton of notes in S note, I use S health for heart rate when lifting etc.

I use smart select all the time when posting and selecting only what i want from a given area.

i like the stock camera app

i haven't looked at the alternative S pen apps though.

I love private mode since its built in and unlocks with finger

Im sure there are other touchwiz features im forgetting.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] masri1987:
awesome s-pen aosp app posted above, might have to switch to AOSP afterall.

My only other concern is the camera quality
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] kabuk1:
This is the ONE thing that's holding me back from updating. I have had all my buttons remapped in the same way for ages, plus I really don't like the stock colors so Gravitybox is very important to me. And without amplify, wakelock terminator, & greenify to limit the damn google services wakelocks I wouldn't get even a day out of my phone. Pandora patcher is a luxury, yes, but it's soooo nice lol.

Xposed works on AOSP LP, but the finger scanner doesn't and that extra security level is a good half of why I bought this phone, so now I have to choose between losing my beloved mods and losing my beloved scanner. What to do, what to do?!

Since the Xposed dev says it may never work on TW & KK support for this phone is already dwindling, I guess I'll probably just flash the update & play around with it for a day or two just to see if I can live with it. Maybe I can find some non-Xposed alternatives or just retrain my old brain to do things differently. Grumble...
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] masri1987:
Let's just go to AOSP... I think this is gonna be our only option until Xposed is avail for LP TW
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] kabuk1:
If the finger scanner worked on AOSP, believe me I'd be on it already. I just can't give that up though :(
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] nano303:
Was never a fan of AOSP. I mean if you want a true android device without no touchwix because you hate it to much. Than the note 4 is not for you considering its not the only phablet. I before I had Samsung I used to like aosp Roms especially PAC Man but now there's to much on touchwix ROM you cannot have on aosp. Fingerprint scanner along with all the health features and spen become useless. The reason that makes the note 4 different that any other phablet.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] KingBeef:
XPrivacy is the only module I would prefer not to go without. I will probably update just to see L in action then go back to KK unless a nice Dev cooks up a ROM that gives me the same functionality with regard to XPrivacy's restrictive capabilities.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] RaiderWill:
Yeah... I do insist on going that far.. :cool:

Xposed.. like the other 2 items I mentioned, were Pillars.. Icons.. of what Android stood for.. :cool:

***Choice.***

I truly Thank Rovo for sharing his incredible creation.. :good:

Because it allowed Visual as well as Functional distinction for each and every Android device it graced..

And gave YOU the option of having the same device as ME but in essence.. they were two Distinct and Individual personal works of art based on the options we chose..

Having the option of how much % of battery you desired at any given time as well as how much additional memory up to 128 Gb's each individual chose to have at any given time is just as important IMO as the options we will no longer have if no further development occurs with Xpose.

That's the correlation.

All 3 are about to go bye-bye for good.. Which means I can not create like this... And That's Too Bad. :cool:
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] kabuk1:
Well I just flashed LP, the Dynamic Pop build to be specific, and it's honestly pretty good. The dev has implemented a few visual customizations, mostly status bar colors, so I believe that in time we'll probably see some decent UI mods for LP. I'm happy to report that Greenify still MOSTLY works too, even without Xposed.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] jazzmachine:
So much misinformation being posted in this thread... misinformation that contradicts referenced and linked legit

information

posted in this SAME THREAD.

Again, the S-Pen is not useless in non-Touchwiz ROMs. In a few ways, it can be more useful. In other ways, less. Those who bothered to read this (5 page atm) thread know this. Those who didn't apparently don't care to learn, which is fine. Those who post such opinions stated as fact are supplying others with false information to their detriment. Not fine, insulting to those who took the time to inform others that they do have options, and contributes to the entirely avoidable decline of the XDA Developers forum.

Please, acknowledge and respect the reason for XDA's existence. As this thread is on the topic of the Xposed framework, pick a "popular" module, and read and absorb it's support thread. If you don't understand the technicalities discussed in that thread, then it's time to take a break from posting and focus on learning. Please do return after that; I guarantee that you'll get far more out of your experience here and valuably contribute to rather than diminish that of others as well.

Yes, I'm rather frustrated, as are others who also go out of their way to help and inform. However, my intent with this post is to help all members of this forum as well as the community itself. There is no shortage of Android-centric forums where uninformed opinions are the norm - this isn't one of them. It's one of the very few that is intended for technical discussion of the inner-workings of the Android operating system. All are welcome but they must take some responsibility to inform themselves before posting information that isn't based on fact/knowledge. Thanks to all and please note that this isn't directed to any specific members (no quotes, "naming names"). XDA is an incredibly valuable resource and it can only remain so if everyone does their part to keep it that way :)

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] RaiderWill:
May I ask... :cool:

Are you referring to me?

Because.. my response in post #47 was simply a response to you.

If a short answer will put you a little more at ease. even though you asked for opinions....... ( Don't let my Disgust of the S6 bother you ). then "Yes" I will miss Xposed.. for the reason you see associated with the attachment in post #47. ;).
