[MOD] Lockscreen - Transparency - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
Im running CM11 and i have xposed.
Thus far i cant find an 'easy fix' to remove the dark tint from my lock screen.
1. is there one?
2. if i have to manually modify an xml, which is it and where to find it?
I found one other request of the same nature but it was specific to a HTC handset.
Any help is appreciated.
Cheers.
EDIT; so i found keyguard.xml in framework-res.apk /res/layout.
Pretty sure thats what i need?
Anyway to modify the apk on the fly or do i need to rebuild it then flash again with modified apk?
Really hoping theres an xposed mod ive missed.
=(

Try GravityBox Xposed module, in the lock screen settings I believe you can set the background opacity.

Hey thanks for the reply.
Got GB installed, tried that setting, didnt have any effect.
Pretty sure i need to edit the keyguard.xml in framework-res.apk but im not very practised in modifying APKs.

Under the voice search app i would like to remove the words "voice search"
Can anyone help me with this?
so theres really no one that can help me with this ???
Not sure what version of android you are running, but I looked on my international D802 4.4.2 and I didn't see the option to remove the words underneath it. Only options were to remove or add lock-screen shortcuts. If you are rooted you may be able to do something about it, other then that, I would wait for the 2.5 version of Xposed, maybe?

Install Xposed Framework and G2 Xposed.
The stock rom will not give you the option to hide them.

Surely you can use Xposed framework and a module for that if its not build in the Alliance rom.

Install Xposed.apk from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/xposed-installer-versions-changelog-t2714053 (read the OP well) and all available modules like GravityBox which has many UI tweaking options. Xposed modules are available here http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/index-xposed-modules-collection-post-t2327541, Xposed is not yet compatible with ART afaik.

Yes. It's not clear if you want to change an existing icon or add something outright.
The former is generally called theming. Usually you can just replace the icon in question with a root aware file browser. Most app icons are in the drawable 360 xxhdpi drawable folder of system apps. The latter either needs an associated app, a smali edit or something to reference the icon.

Navigation bar not working

Hi there, it looks like my bottom part of my nexus 4 touch is dead which makes the navigation bar unresponsive, however i was able to make it work with the help of xposed framework by increasing the height of navbar.
My question is can't i make modification in the rom itself and flash it and make it a parmanent fix so that everytime i factory reset rom i dont have to use xposed framework? Because uninstalling the gravitybox app reverts the changes i made to navbar. If this is possible please let me know the procedure for the same.
Thanks
(Current using AICP rom)

You could install a ROM that has this option incorporated in it, like Chroma, for example. There are more such ROMs in the development section.

Well, another solution would be to decompile framework-res.apk and change the DPI from there. But, as I don't know much about coding, I can't really help you with this...
I just posted this question.

Samsung Galaxy S8 (Android 8 Beta 2) | Remove Navbar

Hi there,
I'm new here and i hope I'll do everything right.
Is there a way to completely remove the navigation bar from the s8? I want my S8 completely controled with gestures but i dind't find a way to remove the comming up navigation bar (I'm on immersive mode).
I've tried to edit the build.prop file with adding "qemu.hw.mainkeys=1" but this ended up in a black screen where only the power options were visible.
I hope you can help me,
Simon

With root it's probably removable but my guess is is that with no Oreo root for snapdragon yet and Oreo being brand new no one has figured it out yet
You can easily remove it with the draco mod, I use it with substratum and it's great
