UPDATE: I solved the problem by simply pushing the android.policy he provided in his thread, I still haven't figured out what was causing it. Well now the problem is solved.
Hi, after following d3cka's AOSP lockscreen guide, I managed to add everything succesfully without any compiling errors.
After pushing all of the needed files and rebooting the phone, I started up with the sliding lockscreen and I was like yay, it worked! But after going to Lidroid Parts and changing the lockscreen style, it didn't change.
So I'm stuck with just one lockscreen, doesn't matter if I set to Samsung, Rotary, etc, it just always stays the same lockscreen.
Tried signing both lidroid-res.apk, lidroidparts.apk as someone suggested in another thread, doesn't work.
Tried installing lidroidparts manually as an app, got it to appear in drawer, etc, but still it won't change the lockscreens.
Tried giving LidroidParts.apk rw-r--r-- permissions, doesn't help.
Tried leaving /system mounted as rw but that doesn't help aswell.
Has anyone had such issue? If so, please share how you solved it.

I've been playing with the ThemePorter app and loving it. But while I have the new rom open and swapping the .pngs from the old theme to the new rom I thought I could change the fonts too. I picked a font I liked (.tft format), deleted the old fonts and installed the new ones with all the same names as the old ones (Clockopia, DroidSans, etc etc) but once I zip the rom back together and sign it, it won't load. ADB logcat gives me issues like media_flinger died, and the other media stuff in that library has died warnings too. This makes the boot screen hang and the rom won't load despite complete install. Obviously there are other ways to change the font, so that's not a big deal. I'm just trying to understand how this stuff is connected. I did double check and this can be the only problem. I just unzipped the rom, replaced the original font folder, signed, and rebooted just fine. Any ideas?
Hi there,
I am running this Rom and made my own bootanimation with photoshop.
It's 480x480, 72 dpi (I also tried different dpi values) and I tried it with color management (sRGB) and tried it without color management as well.
I put the bootanimation.zip into /system/media with ES Explorer. Until here everything works fine.
But when I reboot, instead of my animation, all I see is the logo.rle (which I customzed as well and works fine) for longer than usual and then a black screen until the boot is finished.
I attached my animation. Hopefully someone has a clue why it doesn't work.
Thank you in advance
Alright. I found the problem myself. -.-
Solution:
The images have to *.jpg's without color management.

Are you serious? i've been messing around with this and getting really frustrated...
Especially since the first part plays it's .png's, but then the screen goes black when the second part should start...
I'll try this later today, on an SGS2 with CM10/PA.
EDIT:
Nope, didn't solve it for me.
After a few tries with different file names for the images, only the first part would play, and all of a sudden all i had was a black screen...
Reinstall ROM...
So today I was trying to look up on how to replace the system icons and such, so I extracted some file I cannot rememeber the name of it and replaced the images from in it with the ones I wanted, then I applyed the stuff with an app and it said I should reboot for it to work, however when it was displaying processing it crashed, and rebooted on its own. It will keep looping in the boot animation, and I'm not sure if I'm gonna have to go back to stock. And fyi I am using manualnooter.
I dont understand how it isnt working and all I edited was pictures, plus a few xmls.
Here are the name of the xmls edited if you need (all of them have nav_ in front of the name)
home.xml, jump.xml, library.xml, quickbutton.xml, search.xml, shop.xml, shop_in_store.xml, web.xml
and if your wondering what pictures were replaced from what I can tell only the status bar stuff was replaced. (i.e. c_back.png)
Also, I was trying to use the SystemUi.apk to change it, but i could not find it. so I found something else that had the icons. (trying to find the name of the file right now)
Edit: I replaced files inside of system\framework-res\drawable-mdpi\
(sort of) Resolved: I had booted a couple different recoveries, until it would get stuck on the 'N', then I did the 8 fail boot and it loaded back up to stock. Guess I'll just reflash manualnooter.
Perhaps one of you can shed some light on the issue I'm having...Cooking a personal custom NG2 rom for the Sprint Galaxy S4.
I tried to follow Cnexus's guide here, and tdunham's edited smali post (#283).
Modded SecSettings and SystemUI according to OP and post #283 (and the few that followed).
Compiled, decompiled, edited the references, recompiled. Everything seems to be good.
Put the two APKs in /system/priv-app and built a test version of the rom. SystemUI doesn't load (no status bar and settings appear to fc).
So I pulled the logcat and it fails signature verification. Did some googling and edited services.jar to skip signature verification.
Pushed that and rebooted. This time systemui loads fine, the status bar is there and notifications all work. But there is no flashlight toggle. So I tried flashing the enabletogglezip in the Update portion of the OP, but to no avail - it did not add the toggle.
Frustrated, I flashed this mod, and interestingly enough two flashlight toggles are added (both work fine). This leads me to believe the apks compiled correctly and have the new images and smali where it needs to be. But it's not getting added to the notification toggles.
Thoughts? Any tips are appreciated.
Post in the thread and someone will help you
I'm pretty busy nowadays but there are plenty of people in there that know what they are doing

Thanks for your response CNexus. I did post in that thread a few days ago, but haven't heard anything back. I hope it is okay I x-posted here, I was trying to get my question some more exposure.
I will keep messing around with it hopefully something clicks or someone much more knowledgeable than me can help me out! Thanks again.
MXMR.
Have you been able to crack this please do upload the systemui and secsetting files.
Tried the same but just lost the status bar and wallpaper turned black.

Did you add flashlight to feature.xml?
So recently... I have tried to enable tethering through editing the build.prop. Upon reboot... My camera app stops working and 3rd party camera apps become buggy if I try to replace the stock app.
I am using the "net.tethering.noprovisioning=true" technique.... And changing nothing else. Has anyone else run into this issue or does anyone have a fix.
Issue specifics:
- Happens no matter on stock ROM rooted or custom ROM (currently on resurrection remix)
- flashlight will also stop working until I edit quick menu icons and then it works.
- I have tried wiping cache and formatting.
- tried rebooting
- tried backing up build.prop and restoring it... Issue still stays.
- for awhile I was using elementalx kernel... But the problem still seems to stay on Ex or stock kernel.
- happens on both android 6.0.1 and 7.1.1 ( 7.1.1 currently used)
- moto g4 xt1625 (non-amazon) Athens retus phone model
Any thoughts or fixes?
Thanks
Sorry to double post... But I had a separate thought...
Is there any reason to believe that editing the build.prop outside of Android OS on a Windows PC then remounting it.... Would fix the problem? It doesn't seem to make logical sense that it would help, but at this point I'm grasping at straws.
Thanks

I had the same exact problem, and tried many of things you tried without success. I finally tried the solution on another site and it fixed all the problems. After I tried it, I realized it was probably a permission issue on build.prop.
I'm not allowed to post the link of the site. However, long story short, try changing the permissions of build.prop by using chmod 644 build.prop, or change build.prop to -rw-r--r-- .
