Turning TW Blue to Black? - Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there an easy way of changing the blue bars, power menu, sliders, etc on TW Roms? Wanam only does so much.

I tried this but it's a bit transparent in the quick settings. I only tried the base theme in the first post. Make a backup first and then flash in SS.

Just nervous to try that. How accurate is it? Is it high quality? And can I still use wanam?

Make a backup of your current setup. Flash and test the new file. Like it and things still work? Keep it. Don't like it? Flash your backup and no harm/no foul.

This is why I say make a backup first. It worked fine on my phone, I just didn't care for the looks and flashed my backup back. You're fine if you have a backup.

I know, I'm just lazy lol. Making a backup of my entire system is something I dont even have room for. Just dont want to waste time if I dont
like it haha.

Yes but a backup of the entire system is upwards of many gigs. I guess I'll try it.

That's a bummer, you might be able to fix that by deleting some folders in the zip file from the priv_app and app folder. I'll mess around with it tomorrow some and let you know if you want.

I actually just deleted the incallui.apk folder and it worked great. I am using now. I had to adjust some stuff with xposed and wanam because the new theme breaks it. Lol

Yep. Just remove Rose.apk and Rose.odex from /system/app. I made my own custom gutted Hero rom with a lot of things removed including the boot animations. Im thinking about uploading it. I can upload a Sense-less (pun intended) Hero if you would like. Note, I did not test it much. Just played with it for a few minutes. Make sure you Nandroid backup
could you please?

Sure. I'll get it together and uploaded as soon as possible.
Is it truly "Sense"-less? That is, with the standard white menu bar, default icons, etc.?

Im going to upload it soon. And now it is not going to be truly senseless yet. I dont have enough time to do that right now but I hope to soon. At the very least it will have all HTC Widgets deleted as well as Rosie.
when do you think you will have it uploaded?

Well, I am just going through some basic testing right now to make sure it works. I made two roms. They are both basically MoDaCo's roms so he should get all the credit. I just took some leg work out of it for you guys
Like I said, when I have them all tested and working I will upload. Hopefully that means soon. And remember I am not new to the whole rooting/hacking scene but to rom development I am new so please forgive me for saying these are pretty darn beta
My phone is way faster with sense gone
if you want ill help you test it and ill give you feed back?

Android.process.acore

Does anyone know why the wallpapers wont show up when you try to select one, it comes up just gray boxes, gives me an FC Android.process.acore.. Would be great to figure this out, kinda annoys me lol.

It might be a conflicting app you have downloaded. See whats running on your phone or in the background.
I dont know if you are running a2sd. But it seems to cut down on problems like that. It used to do it to me all the time back on 1.5 roms without a2sd.
The app i had problems with was PoliceScanner.. I would delete it and everything would work again.

No matter what ROM I use, market goes back to stock green

So, Ive tried 3 different ROM's. and on two of them used Riptides blue theme. Right now, Im using MikFroYo v4.61, with the Chogardjr-Blue-Theme-v4.6x-Odex-signed theme. At initial boot, the market starts out blue, but after awhile it switches back to stock green. Any ideas why?

It has something to do with the market's auto updater. If you go to this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=900584&highlight=cyan+dragon
and go to post 2, there's a method that shows you how to get your custom market back. I just kind of let it go, personally.

yeah, ive never understood why someone would care about a color scheme more than a functional software update.

Depends if its functional or not now doesn't it?
Just uninstall the update and freeze "market updater" thru titanium backup. Easy as pie.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
Just ADB remove Market Updater from /system/app and call it good!

Icon Troubles

Hey guys. I'm having a issue with my icons not changing. No matter the ROM (Now it's Temaseks CM 13) or be it layers or CM Theme, they won't change. Well a few Google ones do. Any idea on why or has anyone else had the issue and found out why or how to fix? Thanks.
If there is any other info I need to provide I forgot let me know. Wondering if encryption has anything to do with this issue maybe?

had same issue using unicon, fix was to clear data in the google app or whatever launcher's data you use then reboot. might work for you, worth a shot

Titanium Backup - Android ID

Admittedly, this feels like a stupid question. With MM, TB changed the method with which we restored the Android ID. It was allegedly fixed months ago whereby you can restore the system settings instead of using the menu item.
It's never worked for me. What am I missing? Many thanks in advance.
Your question is not clear... you seem to be talking about 2 different things here

Fair enough. I'll run ADB for it. Plugging in my phone is hard, y'all.
