[Q] TW features to keep and remove, xposed? - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

N910F. After playing around with a TW ROM, I've decided I need Xposed. I miss the customisation that was possible.
There are also a few features I don't like about TW:
* the S finder notification bar
* the quick settings bar
* large fonts in several areas (despite setting font size to tiny)
* bright colours etc.
... but I would like to keep the multi window facility from TW.
* Would it be possible to remove these features from a TW ROM using Xposed? Or add multi window to an AOSP ROM?
* Do I need a deodexed TW ROM for Xposed? Anyone got this working or is it still buggy?

[Request] stock android.policy.jar update

Hi guys,
This is a request for a dev to create an android.policy.jar/framework.jar for stock/nxt 1.2 light with the following features added:
* Expanded power off menu, reboot, screenshot, etc.
* Volume button music controls
* Long press back to kill apps
* Nxt lockscreen with musics controls etc.
* Also a settings.apk with these options included and quickpanel options would be great
I have seen all these features in stock roms but have not seen a rom with all these options together correct me if i am wrong.
It's just an idea not a demand or anything just if any devs have time and like the idea.
I have used this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1974909 by secko which was the closest to what i describe but it was unstable bootloops etc.
Thanks for reading

4.2/4.3 roms with halo notifications

Hello all,
Can anyone point me in the right direction for a very stable rom either 4.2 or 4.3, that comes with Halo floating notification features and also the other usual usual goodies such as customising the status/nav bar, theme choose etc.
AOKP would be perfect, however that does not come with the Halo notification features.
I would prefer avoiding PA/aospa as that is a bit too feature packed for me.
I am currently using the Mahdi 4.4.2 rom which has the features I am looking for for, including the floating notifications but I can't seem to settle with KitKat for some reason.
Thanks.

[Q] Xposed module not changing colors?

Hi,
I have a Galaxy S4 running Sammy Deluxe S5 ROM. However I love the look of material design in android L but will loose S4 features including the camera app, if I were to install an stock google rom and theme it, I had pacman ROM for start and being new to custom roms I didn't realize that i'll get rid of all S4 features so installed teh Sammy Deluxe S5 ROM as it's based on touchwiz.
I instead have started changing the theme by installing go launcher and using a android L icon pack (android L launchers aren't as feature rich as go launcher). I've also used wanam xposed to change the color of the notification draw however there are some issues.
Everything looks fine except the draw handle (blue bar at the bottom of drawer) is still the same S5 colors and with brightness slider enabled there is a white line above the notification bar but that goes away if I disable the brightness control but I've installed Icontrol centre to get around that issue until I can find a way to fix it properly.
Is there anyway I can manually theme the phone, I've started looking at APK modding and have looked through the ROM files but can't seem to find anything to change the colors of the notification drawer. Even better would be if there is any other xposed module that can theme more expects of the galaxy S5 also would be nice to theme the settings too.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
there are many modules available for themeing in closed installer
you can try gravity box its superb
Use Gravity Box or Wanam Xposed for theming.
Not all modules are compatible with android 4.3 or 4.4

[XOOM2/Xyboard] Theme it like Lollipop with Xposed

Bored of your jelly bean look on your Xoom 2 or Xyboard?
Here's a few things you can install to make it look like Android 5.1, at least by the way it looks.
THIS IS NOT A GUIDE, IT'S JUST ME SHARING WHAT I DID TO MAKE MY XYBOARD LOOK COOL. SORRY FOR MY BAD ENGLISH IN THE VIDEO BELOW
All you need is:
Root
Safestrap installed in case you mess something up
Xposed Framework so you can install and enable the following modules:
Eggster - in order to make the easter egg when you press the software version be the Lollipop one
Monster UI - this app changes the ui colors and framework style, you can even customize your color
Xperia/AOSP Navbar Buttons - just select the lollipop navbar icons from there
Xstana (wifi, battery and signal icons) - select the lollipop status bar icons (and disable the navbar option there)
Apex/Nova Launcher
Bonus:
sEFix (reduce tablet lag) - works really good to reduce lag. Really recommend this app.
Smart Booster (improve RAM consumption) - only use it if you care about RAM, and you should set it up to automatically clean RAM when it reaches certain point.
it will end up looking like this, which kinda brings new life to the tablet and I think looks good:
Again, this is not a how-to guide because it's just sharing what apps I installed. Those apps itself did the whole theming and not me, but I thought some of you would like it.

Q. How to change the drop down menu completely to stock android?

Hi guys,
I bought a new note 4 yesterday, after my note 3 is dead.
I was used to install cyanogenmod rom when I buy a new galaxy phone.
I like to be on stock android like nexus devices.
This time! I don't what to install cyanogenmod to my new note 4 from many reasons, I like the s pen features and fingerprint scanner! But still I want the look and feel of stock android!
I can install theme "material theme" and nova luncher or Google now luncher to change the look. The look will change to a good point but the notifications on status bar and drop down menu won't change of course. They will be touchwiz style!
Also I can change the status bar icons to be like stock with xposed modules, but the pull down menu! Still I don't figure it out.
Is that possible to change it completely? The look and functionality?
And for the notifications, can we change samsung style small notifications on status bar to big drop down notifications like on stock?
I hope to not forced to install a custom rom!
