Hello guys, I am new to android. Can anyone guide me to flashing roms and changing the stock home screen tab? What must have apps do I need?
To change your home you don't need to flash anything. Just install your new launcher (LauncherPro, ADW, Zeam Lancher etc etc), press the home key, select your new launcher and if you are satisfied with it, next time when you press home mark the "default" checkbox as well.
Flashing ? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=846248
How about those icons on the top right corner? How do i change those?
Those are parts of base OS and that requires rooting, flashing s-off bootloader and many more things. I never went so deep in customizing, so i leave the answer to someone more knowledgeable in this area.
Lately I fished out my old Blade to use as a backup device, installed ColdfusionX on it, but it has this damn navigation bar (soft buttons) on the bottom. How can I get rid of them? There is no option in settings.
Thanks in advance. I'd ask in colfusionX thread, but it seems most threads in development are dead.
IIRC softbuttons where a separte zip to flash, just reflash CFX without it. Anyway, the only ICS rom that still has some activty is KonstaKANG, i suggest you to switch to that build, it has just been updated yesterday, it's smaller (138mb vs 190+) and has some custom options implemented by KonstaT

Custom ROMs can have their buttons programmed which ever way. I don't have the same ROM at the moment, so can't answer specifically for your ROM. But as an example, my Touchwiz ROM came with Wanam Xposed, which I can use to change the way the Home button behaves. Maybe there are some options in your ROM settings, or maybe the ROM came with some appropriate utility. If you don't find a way to customize the home button, I suggest you go check out the subforum specific for your custom ROM.

i mean when you long press on home button in other S4 models will opening task that show you which apps runing now , but in L720 not have this option , how can do it ? also if screen off in sleep mode , and other S4 models you press on home button the phone will wake up but L720 is doing nothing , maybe need to change in EFS or SYSTEM folder home button function ?
On stock Roms for the SPH-L720 the home button does wake up the phone and holding the home button brings up the task manager/recent apps. So it is the custom Roms that you are running. As mentioned above it has to be some of the settings.

Any asop rom will have those settings under "buttons". Ive never ran a stock rom for more then 5secs in my life on any of my phones but u have to mean the recent apps menu.
Ive been sticking with sokp but ive flashed every aosp rom here atleast once. Xposed is always an option or xda button remapper. I have mine setup longpress menu is recents.. Longpress home is camera.. Longpress volume up is flashlight.. Longpress back kills current app.. By using sokp built in button control. Xposed torch.. Xposed additions.. And developer options... I use an extra xposed module to adjust the long press delays (xposed additions)
Hello
Dear friends , i think i found the problem,
i replace charger flex port unit from I545 to L720
thanks all
I installed the rom *[full wipe] on my gt9505 , and I have some problems with it.
I have enabled the air wake up , but it only show me now the clock, no longer if I have any missed calls, messages etc.
Also I have selected Infinite scroll in Wanam Xposed and it worked, but after a reboot no longer, even if it is selected there.
I also in Wanam I have Unselected the Scroll wallpaper, but my wallpaper is still. And if I change text from lockscreen it doesn't change anything.
My questions now:
Can I install the Ultra power saving mode on stock [rooted +cwm} rom ?
Or how can I fix those problems and also How can I replace the keyboard with the s5 white keyboard ?
I flashed latest release version of Mokee MM Rom from their website yesterday. I'm in love with this rom mainly because it has Viper4android pre installed in it.
But the capacitive home button is not working in this Rom. (Like with previous roms such as nuclearom, just by swiping left or right in the home button I could access recent apps, Back button)
So, is there any way to bring the capacitive home button functionality to this Rom.
I already tried a flashable zip which was meant for CM 12.1, but it didnt work, My phone went to bootloop.
Someone please suggest a solution here.
Same Problem

It seems there are two fiiles in system/usr/keylayout called Generic and Goodix-CTL. The issue is because CM 12.1 uses the FPC1020 file (driver) whereas Mokee uses something else. I tried changing the Goodix-CTL 158 to HOME but it makes the Back button work as BACK! Really confused as to what is to be done.
