Make a backup but yeah looks harmless.
harmless? haha not really, it modifies the framework-res.apk file, thats basically a lot of epic specific stuff. make sure to make a backup and odin handy....
The only value it changes in the framework is a single boolean value, and one that doesn't affect anything other than the native sip stack, so it shouldn't break anything - may not work, either, but it's worth trying

The instructions say to edit a single value in the GB framework, but it doesn't say you have to use the framework from another phone. If the bool isn't present in the Epic GB framework, it can be added in author breaking anything - at worst, it would be ignored and unused
It sounds like the only file being flashed to the phone is an apk, so the framework isn't going to be overwritten

Actually I just re read the post and the only thing getting flashed is the permissions. You need to edit the framework your selfs. so if your on a.gb leak give it a try. it actually shouldn't break anything

i unzipped it and there was an xml file no apk.. i dont know wat to do with it.. i know it goes in the framework.apk ..but that its.. do i need to just add it or replace something?
Did you read the instructions. That xml goes in system/permissions

I was using version 9.2 of passion rom and had the inverted black mms with blue icons.
I tried reapplying the zip for v10 and it wont work...
So i tried pushing the apk file, and all the mms will do now is force close if i try to open it..
I guess v10 is causing some conflict v 9.2 doesnt, but i cannot stand the blinding white mms...
Ive always been curious... why is the stock messaging app always so basic and optionless? You would think that since anyone who has an android obviously texts that you would make the messaging app cool? Instead u have to download a third party messaging app from the market.. doesnt make sense to me as i would think they would be simple changes... any feedback?
Thanks to anyone who knows about this mms deal on v10!
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
anyone have a solution?
I am using an inverted mms.apk but I'm not sure if its the same one you're talking about. Mine has grey icons and all I have to do is install the apk from the phone and it replaced the system app. I got it from the I9000 apps forum. Try searching there. Its just an .apk, not a .zip.

Whatever kid, we have a confirmation it works, I was testing out the three new modded versions of it last night and they all work. Just because you can't figure it out, doesn't mean its not working for everyone else.
And I am just supposed to assume to know what you have done?? That childish to think someone will just know what you have done and assume you have tried anything at all without you relating that information.
Did you ever think it could be that dirty ass neobuddy rom you are running? As this mms has confirmation of working on ICS on multiple devices, but errors out on one I have heard of, YOURS!
But you know what, have fun kid, if you can't take advice from a dev, and want to act like a ****, then thats your perrogative, but I am officially done with you ****ing kids.
I'm not an idiot, and it just force closes on my phone. It's not that hard to push a file.
Anyways, thanks for your suggestion. I had assumed it didn't work because lof the 4.0.3 / 4.0.2 difference but maybe it's something else.
I will try a fresh install of passion and see if that possible resolves the issue.
Thank you.
Here's what I did:
1] rename original Mms.apk to mms.apk.bak
2] move the inverted mms.apk to system/app
3] make sure permissions match
4] reboot
If that doesn't work then yeah install passion fresh. That's what I'm on now and those steps above is all that I do.

It's a legitimate request I've seen before. I mean, why let your old devices just waste away when your children or family members could totally use them as dirt cheap replacements for iPods and such. You don't want them making accidental emergency calls or circumventing the settings you put in place.
Should be able to completely remove the radio somehow so that the cellular stuff just won't work.

Maybe this is a project for some of the budding devs on xda. In theory, it sounds like a simple change. Simply remove the phone aspects of a rom and repackage. I'm sure it's harder than it sounds in terms of stability and usability though (I'm not a dev) =/

Eh, some apps certainly wouldn't work, anything that needs to communicate through telephony and such. But really shouldn't be that difficult.
I'll come back when I'm not too terribly busy with some links about breaking down and customizing ROMs and such. I know that I've found a thread specifically for this kind of thing for another device, but there are a few of them I read up on so it may take a while to locate. Hell, you could just about remove the phone and contacts apps and edit your build.prop and leave an existing ROM intact. I'm no dev or anything though lol so I'll look around.

Not the OG article I had read, but after a bit of Googling I came up with a script that you should be able to set to run at boot which will disable your radio.
You may also be able to dial *#*#INFO#*#* and choose turn off radio, but that will not be persistent across reboots. I would use the script and a third-party launcher that can hide apps so that you'll keep the phone and contacts apps and such for stability, but not have them readily available.
*EDIT:
And a flashable zip! Thank you jellybellys!
**EDIT:
Just to elaborate about that flashable zip, it will actually "permanently" (until you wipe and install another ROM) disable the radio and clean out the apps that you don't want. Also installs some kind of binaries if they're currently absent from the ROM. Great find, I'm glad you asked about this!
exactly, my first thought would be just to use titanium backup and disable/freeze but not remove apps such as dialer or what you dont want/need. not sure if this will work but its worth a try. probably a few treads across xda on this (especially on older model phones) id search in those and see if there is a quick answer short of developing a whole new rom

So you used the zip, and once booted those processes were force closing?

So that's the MIUI.us "Pure English?" I've just downloaded the last available build and will soon flash and then install jellybellys's zip. I'm hoping that will get me the same FC's as you are.
Once you've gotten home after the weekend, try rebooting it a time or two and see if it consistently gives you the FC's.
Also, just curious, but are you using MIUI just because it's the most similar Android overlay to iOS? To make it a bit easier for your friend? Because you could hook him up with some ICS goodness otherwise
*EDIT:
Ok, looking through his updater-script vs. my /system/app/ directory, it looks like MIUI names a couple of apk's differently. I'm currently installing a fresh MIUI so that I can see the directory before moddified by the OG jellybellys zip, then I'll update his zip to reflect those different names and try to run it again. If successful, I'll post the modified file and hopefully we can get your friend a fun little multi-tasking media player
Ok sweet umm can u send me the edit zip
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using Tapatalk 2
Had a good look at the flashable zip, very simple. I need to learn to code, I guess this is a good small place to start lol
All I did was unzip his file, change a few things and added a couple extra lines to remove one more app he hadn't worried with. As said above this will disable your radio, install the radiooptions binary if absent, and remove a number of apk's from the /system/app/ directory.
Removed apps:
TelephonyProvider.apk - cellular service
TelocationProvider.apk - emergency location service (I just don't see the need if you're not connecting to cellular networks)
Phone.apk - your phone app - should also get rid of dialer, I'm trying to find out why it doesn't.
Mms.apk - messaging app
All credit to jellybellys @ rootzwiki.com of course, I couldn't have written this myself or anything.
jellybellys-mod-wifionly-MIUI
Again, the phone app will still be on the homescreen and you actually can't remove it. It won't dial anything, and will just cause the acore process to FC if you try. It's looking like the only way to get it really removed is to modify the ROM's zip so that it never installs the app to begin with.
I'm going to restore the apps again, see if Titanium Backup can't do a better job than outright removing the app does.
Coming from the N900 phone I have came across many hacks but none quite as simple as one called Swappolube. All it does is make small changes to the kernel with in turns make the devices overall functionality smoother. The tweak is more or less explained Here.
Personally using this tweak I have personally experienced more overall responsiveness and fluidity in my XPlay. And My battery Life has been over all...better. I do not expect it to have the same effect for everyone, due to several reasons (overclocking, faulty devices, too many background services etc), but personally I have experienced phenomenal changes in my plays responsiveness, aside from using seeder.
Some Notes:
1) Using Seeder with this script may actually be very beneficial.
2) Values reset when you reboot, (I'm new to android, so I have no idea how to make this script run at boot time without using an app )
3) You will need a rooted device.
4) Use a program like "Script Manager" to run the script.
I have always wanted a N900.... even though its now 3 years old, the device has always looked nice and seemed like a neato toy to mess with. You still have that N900?

I think if u hav init.d support on ur Play u could just delete .sh extension & put it in the init.d folder. I'm sure it'll ran automaticly on boot.

Hate to break it to u man, but most custom rom already hav these tweaks in thier build.prop. And it does givs some smooth effect. I think it'll made the diff if it ran on stock. Then again they wouldn't hav init.d support & there's isn't an easy guide to help get that on stock. Mybe i should make 1 or not.

Figured as much. Well I guess it would only be useful on roms that haven't had the tweak. I'm using NXT LE rom which didn't have the tweak. Some values were already there but most of em weren't. :/
Mybe there's a reason why it dosent hav those tweaks. Mybe u should consult krisdee as to why.
Anyway, thanks for sharing. The best thing bout init.d support is u can just throw a bunch script & just let it ran. And just hope there's no conflict between all of them.

Ok. This works.
Instead of adding this,
Code:

U should only just add this.
Code:
#!/system/bin
Just delete the "/sh" mark red as above & try it with SManager. Then u can put it in init.d folder for auto ran.
Edit: Ok. It didn't ran on init.d. Need to re-write it with proper command in order to make it ran on init.d. I'll upload it when i finish it. For now just use SManager & set it on boot. I dunno why it matters though. But i'll try me best to help the community.
Edit: Its hard when no nothing. So mybe we just let those with proper knowledge re-write it for init.d support. As for now, just stick with SManager & set it on boot.
Edit: It wont work even after i set it on boot. Mybe there's some conflict with build.prop or other init.d tweaks. So need to ran it manually. Again, if this really does benefit much to us Play then we need help to add init.d support to it. So...till then..

No....it changes the way that memory is swapped, very slightly. It doesn't kill any tasks whatsoever. Truth is, it worked for me, if it doesn't work for others, i don't really care :/. I posted this to see if it would help others. Before this script I would loose 5 - 8% a day leaving the phone on standby. After this script, I loose 1% a day standby time, also lag all in games were significantly reduced and my phone stopped overheating too quickly. Big claims I know, but as i said, if it doesn't work for you, just move on....didn't think that getting such a simple script to work on a device would be such a pain, and frankly I'm not even gonna look into it. Far too busy with work and university.
if this is about OOM n swappiness, will it still working or get benefit if the ROM already supercharged using v6?
This is a mod how to enable navigation bar(on screen
buttons) , its very simple and easy...
Warring: if you mess something dont blame me.
Add the following line at the end of buid.prop file
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
now on reboot we will have nav-bar like on nexus 4
To turn off capacitive buttons:
Go to system/use/key layout/ synaptics-rmi-touchscreen.kl
Long press it and click open with text editor
Delete everything there
Reboot.
To turn of capacitive button lights:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.deskangel.kblight
Or
This will mess your screen brightness and it will stay on 100% all the time. You have to use screen filter app from play store or some other app to control the brightness of your screen.
Go to system/lib/hw
There find lights.msm8960.so
Rename it to (whatever you want)
Reboot.

I think I read on the s4 forums that they also can't get this going with stock based roms (touchwizz and gpe), something about the lines of code for this to happen being removed or not there.
From personal experience, I could only get the navbar on pa. Another person on a thread enabled it on a cm based ROM.
So in the end, yes, it seems the only way to get the nab bar working is a cm based ROM. Its a pity cause that means we'll be giving up:

* ir blaster and fantastic TV app.
* blink feed
* slightly better camera optimizations
Anyone able to recommend a cm based ROM ? Or at least alternative apps for the problems above?

I have to dig out this old post.
Unfortunately i cant get the navigation bar to work?!?
Or can it only be done on CM Roms?
Im on Google Play Edition 4.3, did the total conversion as i want to stay on Stock GPE.

Nope....doesn't work on Sense-based or GPE. Tried it like........I lost count. I kinda savvy it too. However, even on a Touchwiz I can't produce it. So probaly it only works on CM or CM based roms.
CSC Features are cool because you can enable little features that are for whatever reason turned off by Samsung. Here are some that I have found across the internet.
A.) PLEASE MAKE A BACKUP BEFORE MESSING WITH THIS!! Either make a backup in recovery, or make a backup of your feature.xml by copying the original/unedited to your SD Card.
B.) Download a root browser and grant it root permission.
C.) Go to system/csc/feature.xml
D.) Find the lines that you wanna change, and change it to what I have underlined/bolded. OR some are not in there and you can just add those lines right in (lines that are not in that can just be added will be highlighted in blue). Make sure the new lines are between <FeatureSet> </FeatureSet> . Now it's time for the features that can be enabled:
1. Enable call duration in call log: <CscFeature_Contact_DisableCallDuration>false</ (thanks to @eyecon82)
2. Enable camera shutter sound on/off menu: <CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>true</CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>
3. Add an exit menu to the stock web browser: <CscFeature_Web_AddOptionToTerminate>true</CscFeature_Web_AddOptionToTerminate>
4. Enable infinite scrolling in home screen and app drawer: <CscFeature_Launcher_DisablePageRotation>false</CscFeature_Launcher_DisablePageRotation>
5. Enable scheduled message: <CscFeature_Message_EnableScheduledMessage>true</CscFeature_Message_EnableScheduledMessage>
<CscFeature_Message_EnableScheduledMsgBox>true</CscFeature_Message_EnableScheduledMsgBox>
6. Enable prompt to select recording mode: <CscFeature_Camera_CamcorderEnablePromptPopupToSelectRecMode></CscFeature_Camera_CamcorderEnablePromptPopupToSelectRecMode>
7. Enables Rotation control icon in Gallery: <CscFeature_Gallery_AddAutoRotationIcon>true</CscFeature_Gallery_AddAutoRotationIcon>
8. Stock browser requests Desktop site by default: <CscFeature_Web_EnableDesktopSiteAsDefault>true</CscFeature_Web_EnableDesktopSiteAsDefault>
E.) When done make sure you save the changes, and reboot.
F.) ENJOY!
Gonna be working hard on this tonite peeps to ensure which ones are working and which are not... just gotta get thru stupid work first! -__-
Expect a nice update tonite peeps. PLEASE if you know anything about this stuff, feel free to add on!
Good stuff man! I did the shutter sound and exit on stock browser. I'm not sure if it pertains to what I did or if it would have any effect on it (I doubt), but I lost my ability to press and hold to get punctuation on my Samsung keyboard. Lol

Oh man. It's cool. No worries at all. Good reason for me to go back to swype anyway. Lol. But that was the first thing I had noticed after I made changes. Certainly not a big deal. And yes, everything works like a charm.

Thanks for notifying.... can anyone else confirm this?!
Any idea if the radio can be disabled/enabled thru csc features? In Australia, there is not radio on the s5. Not sure whether it's a hardware or software issue, but in others.xml file there is a line for <CscFeature_FMRadio_FrequencySpaceAs>100</CscFeature_FMRadio_FrequencySpaceAs>

I believe with original Touchwiz home, you have to MOD the TouchwizHome.apk to have infinite scroll through pages, as seen in MOD faster touchwiz launcher thread (see Index for easy link). Works from just apk push and no csc mod.
Also, here are the screenshots I promised. Says "null" for feature but my be able to MOD but wonder what it does...

Hey Joe. I'm thinking I may have deleted something else while doing my entries for enabling something. You think me doing that may have borked something? Would you happen to know the entry for the keyboard symbols.
Sorry to bring back up. I just got to thinking about it again and its bugging me (I don't even use the keyboard anymore lol) but good chance for me to learn something if another member has this problem.

You honestly probably did delete something man, you should've copied the original/unedited to your EXT SD Card so you had a backup of it just in case you fudged something up. I'm sorry but I do not know the CSC edit for keyboard symbols

I had it on my SD, as that was the first thing I did. But accidently did some cleaning to my SD. Lol. No biggie. I'll get it right.
Thanks for the insight man.

Once I got home, I planned on gaining root on my brides S5 and comparing. I could just go back to stock unroot too. But I want to learn these edits. So trying NOT to do that. Lol
You could upload. But please, make it NO priority to do so. Lol. It's just literally a learning experience for me now.
