Root + Get rid of TouchWiz ?

Hi,
So I just successfully installed JP9 firmware and I have Froyo running perfectly on my Galaxy 3, but there are several Orange apps pre-installed which I want to get rid of + the ugly TouchWiz UI.
So first I'd like to know how to root G3 and then get rid of these two things.
Many thanks for your help.
try titanium backup... it can remove any system file..
Absolute system root is what I used for the exact same thing. To bad you'll have to "pay" for it.
You could also try doing it via adb but for some reason that rom didn't have read\write capability.
Oh and whatever software you use, don't delete oranges home screen selector. For some reason the rom wouldn't launch for me after that.
Oh2 and be sure to have alternative launcher installed before removing any launchers..

Orange ROM is restricted to the user and applications. My suggestion is to upgrade to a much faster ROM of Froyo, that is precooked. This will remove your Orange branding on the phone (i.e. debrand it) and will mean you can remove any unnecessary applications still on the phne). In it's current state, because it's Orange's Firmware, there's not a lot you can do to it.
I'm Orange branded, used z4root, and Super Manager to remove the Orange crap all apart from homescreen selector. I removed Layar and Thinkfree Office too as never used. Left TW on just in case want in the future so don't know if that would break it but the rest is now gone for good and I have 20mb more phone storage
id suggest keeping touchwiz as a backup launcher expecially if you are using a third party launcher
you can get rid of touchwiz by installing launchers like laucher,adw,golauncher etc .
or use this awesome theme: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1149113
..
When i got my phone i immediately installed Kyrillos 5.7 so I have no idea how TouchWiz works. Is it that much worse than other launchers that everyone wants it gone?

TW N910F 5.1.1 Black theme

Hi all, as the subject states does anyone know of a custom rom (slimmed preferably) that has black system UI (toggles, settings, dialer etc) running 5.1.1 for the n910f?
Anyone, anyway possible?
I'd recommend SimplRom v5.
It has a built in themer called SimplTool- it lets you colour everything to whatever you want so I'm sure you could colour different elements to make a black theme of your liking!
Plus it's super fast and highly reliable!
Just read the thread a little as some people have had issues- also backup your apps using Titanium as your google apps may not re-download when you install the ROM (this happened to me but it's a minor bug and the ROM is more than worth it).
Enjoy!
Hope it helps!
For apps definitely try Team Black Out if you haven't heard of them...I LOVE to black out my phones....lol

[Help] choosing the right rom for my needs

Hello guys! fist thing, I searched for the answer on other threads but can't find what I'm looking for. Basically I'm a newbie in this sort of things, I rooted my Note 3 yesterday and now I seek for a good rom for my phone. I felt the urge to do so because I wanted to get rid of the stock apps (like chaton, s health and so on. I tried to uninstall them with system app remover but they keep coming back as soon as I turn on the Wifi) and to have more control of my device, but since there're so many roms I got a bit confused, especially when it comes to kernel stuff etc.
I want a stable rom (with a normal battery drain) which gives me the possibility to use the S-Pen (I use the stylus often for taking fast note and stuff) and NFC.
I really liked the DarkWolf rom which basically convert a note 3 into an S7, battery life is good, S pen works fine BUT seems like it comes with samsung bloatwares and NFC doesn't work.
So, is there a rom that respect my needs?? what about the kernel? which one should I use??
thanks in advance
PS. My note 3 is the N9005 model,rooted, running official Samsung android 5.0
Go for AryaMod - http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/development/rom-aryamod-v1-tw-lollipop-t2990920
If you by any chance don't mind about NFC then I'd go for Phronesis - http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...om-phronesis-rom-v1-0-stable-feature-t3241910
Both have solid battery life without the need of tweaking the kernel. The kernel is good out of the box.
About your problem of apps installing back then why don't just disable them from Settings- Application Manager or disable auto download updates from play store. Since your are rooted you can use a root explorer and go to /system/apps and /system/priv-app to delete them completely.
Remove bloatware via Titanium Backup Pro .
Dont confuse yourself with kernels use the one that comes with the rom .

First thanks for the reply I can overlook NFC if Phronesis is better or has additional features than Aryamod however is there something good based on marshmallow?

Marshmallow ports has lots of bugs and battery drains a bit faster than LP though not that much. I'm currently on Darklord S7 Edge Beta2 port. Though all basic things are working like Wifi, BT and Data so I can do stuff with an internet. Camera has bugs like modes are not working only the stock capture and recording.
Some bugs for marshmallow based on darklord's rom, some are already fixed in bete 2;
- Always on not working
- Sound alive not working
- Sview not working
- Some camera mode not working (hardware limited)
- Hotspot not working
- Do not disturb time setting FC
- Handwriting not working
- Direct input cant change language
I think Phronesis rom has more features since its a Note5 port with a little touch of edge feature. I'm quite happy with it overall. It's the rom I'm using when going out of town or out of the country. The thread also has a Q&A section so you can find things faster when you encounter a problem. It also has some alternatives for NFC in q&a.
Ah totally forgot about Titanium Backup. As @JJEgan said you can remove bloatware from it as well instead of manually deleting them using a root explorer.
EDIT:
Phronesis rom comes with a kernel so you don't have to worry about them. It is good out of the box without tweaking it. For Arya I forgot already, maybe it is using the stock kernel and that is the reason why you have to flash official rom first before flashing it.
Thank you bratboo and JJEgan for the help. I think I'll give a shot to Phronesis waiting for a more stable marshmallow based rom

How to Change Notification Bar, Status Bar with icons on MI 9T / Redmi k20 ?

Hey Developers,
So I was pretty excited to customize my k20 to make it look like it's mine but when I was checking out the themes. I noticed some things. Like Notification Bar Style, Icons nothing changes on applying any theme, notification design doesn't changes, status bar doesn't changes....etc. Even tried Nova Launcher, Pixel Launcher and many others but nothing happened. So literally I was messed up when I got a theme (Don't remembered the name) which atleast changed the notification bar. So what is the real cause there? Are there only limited number of themes to work well on MIUI 11 or what ?
Secondly I wanna know that how can I just get those fluid stock android 10 gestures on my phone. I know that MIUI 11 comes with full screen gestures but I never like it bcz of that sluggish animations. And atlast Is there any way to get stock android animations in Redmi K20 without installing any AOSP ? Basically What I wanna do is to make it just like Stock Android phone...
Thanks in Advance for any kind of help.

I wanna do that but I doesn't have any experience nor can I find a stable official rom for K20 to meet my daily requirements.
I will surely do that If I found a Youtube Video on installing the most stable pixel rom with review.
U can use this rom
I think its good for daily driver

Best Oldschool rom with viper4android + lots of effects ?

Hello !
A few years ago ( well in 2017 ) i downloaded a sick rom for my samsung galaxy s8 plus, i believe it was a version of " renovated ice rom ". The thing is back then when i installed that rom, it added tons and tons of effects such as - Convoler inside viper4android, and then a ton of options to choose from inside there, and FIREqualizer, viper-ddc- dynamic system etc etc alot and alot of stuff.. but, some days ago i bought a samsung galaxy s8 ( not the plus version ) cause the other plus one is broken..... so i lost everything. My question is, when i install for example the latest lineage os, or the older renovated ice rom, why does viper4android not have as many options as before ? One would think that years later there would be even more options, but there is not.. Also i can mention i downloaded viper4android FX from magisk manager when i tried using lineage os. But when i used the old version of renovated ice rom i couldnt even install latest version of magisk manager it gave me an error opening up. also there was no viper4android installation after the installation of renovated ice rom was completed..... :/ it saddens me really.. I had v moda m100 headsett, and headphone amplifier wich i used at work, and now i cant even find a good rom that has sick options in viper4android..... anyone know of an rom for samsung galaxy s8 that has TONS of viper4android options ? thanks !!!
OH BTW: when i had the samsung galaxy s8 plus with the oldschool viper4android installed, the background in the app was black and red, but when downloaded from magisk manager the backround in viper4android is totally white..... not a big deal, but looked nicer.. Also the icon on the s8 plus was black and red before, with this new viper4android FX from magisk manager the icon is blue with white V....
Im sorry for so long message but i hope the oldschool viper4android isnt dead............................... that was really the sickest audio tweak program i have ever seen on phone, or any other device.. even pc...
you need Viper4Android 4.4 or 4.3
this may be called Viper4Android Legacy on magisk
