I will be doing more in the area of themeing and maybe decompiling to add some mods. But to be honest g2 tweaks adds all the essentials so no real reason to change that. As for the status bar transparency with the Xperia launcher,there are other variants that do have that support but this is the most advanced of them all. Has as many features as nova launcher.

Can i just install viper over audio enhancements you made, or do i need to edit anything?

Thanks Curtis, screenshots look nice.
I was going to try CM12.1, but i need a clear camera (green tint, which im going to look into for a fix) for work.
 
Okay...so....is it NO GAPPS (in title) or is it debloated GAPPS (in OP)?
Which gapps package you recommend, pico or?

Edit: line 234 of build.prop (lcd density = 200). Also can lines 231 & 232 be deleted, you took out itson????

I know you worked hard on this, just trying to help you get all of your ducks in a row. Will test later and give feedback

Just so others know, once DPI is changed from the default 240 to 220 you cant side scroll through your screenshots in OP attachments (no white arrows for left and right picture selection). Havent tried it yet at 200.
 
itsonuid.apk is still in the system in priv-apps. i did remove connections optimizer...what garbage that is. i will edit the op for the true lcd density at 200. could have swore i left it at 220,although 200 is even better lol. if you add gapps you will eventually get nagged for the zv6 update. but any aosp 4.4.2 gapps package should work ok.
 
you mean the direction arrows for the browser? not following you exactly. if its the browser back forward arrows to the left of url bar. honestly i dropped the stock browser in there pretty much for same reason i did the stock file manager...just to be there until users can add their options for those two. most people use a third party browser and file manager. so those are get by until you add your own options which can be deleted after adding what you want to use instead.

Once attachment picture is selected, there is a white arrow on each side of the photo for chosing previous or next photo. At the top of the pucture was an arrow and a X.
Since switching DPI around just now, i can't get the arrows to return (stupid BS). Maybe after another reboot they'll show back up.
 
lol it seems to work ok in Opera. And yeah I reinstalled it. Not having the weirdness from before. heres how Opera handles the screens vs stock.

playing catch up...as for adding viper,thats tricky. you can try just removing sound enhancements then installing viper. but the walkman mod did change a lot around so its 50/50. give it a shot and see how it goes. im interested in it.
 
One more little request, is everything working (just so im not surprised)....NVM

surprise, surprise, surprise -jim neighbors (gomer pyle).......,,wow that just made me feel old, lol
 
Update
  • Unlinked all apps
  • Made separate nandroid backups up each partition
  • Complete wipe
  • Flashed ROM
  • Rebooted (see attached pic - shows boot.img being installed??)
  • Flashed boot from OP (just in case, i had uno kernel installed)
  • Rebooted
  • Set phone up
  • ##72786# to acquire data connection, then activate from settings (hands free didnt start)
  • Installed Xposed framework
  • Reboot to recovery to restore data nandroid (something happened during this step - no log file :()
  • Automatic phone factory reset (GRRR!!!)
  • ##72786#, blah blah again
  • Installed Xposed and modules
Now its stable. Seems pretty rock solid. Great job @Curtis1973. There a few things I'll change to make it more me (thats just me :) )
Will this run stable with uno kernel?

I havent changed anything yet....do you need testing on anything?
 
wow bro,soumds like an adventure. have not tried uno. but can't see a reason why it wouldn't work. if you want to test it out go for it. one thing you will notice is that the stock app widgets wont work with xperia launcher but thats par for the course.
