dag nabbit. usb fast charge no worky

[stonehenge]

Flashed Shiny yesterday. Its mostly stock 4.3. So far the only things I miss are themes (blue clock pls) and the clear all button on Recents. Feels pretty fast though.

i do like new xenon. has a darkhd layout or something. me textin app be all black n shit

not as bright as before. still cant find shit to get the status bar and nav bar to be black. is that a xenon thing or a nova launcher thing?

[stonehenge]

it should be a xenon thing, look inside Settings and find the category that Xenon adds (forget what it's called on that rom) then look for statusbar or transparency or something. It's probably set to transparent right now, just adjust that slider when you find it.

[Cez★]

wonder if i need to restart afterwards


but shouldnt cuz i changed color of the buttons on the bottom and no restarted

[stonehenge]

shouldn't need to restart, just adjust the slider and then back out of settings and hit home to see if it changed

mmmmmmm 4.3.1

[stonehenge]

I've been running Shiny since last week and it has been great. Battery life seems better, phone seems quicker, and overall it is MUCH more stable. No random reboots or anything anymore.

I found mods made for the rom to enable a kill all button on recents, some modifications to the quick toggles, etc. The only thing I'm missing is long-press volume to change tracks. Miss that real bad.

Otherwise it is stock 4.3 and I loves it. Still want to try out Xposed to apply a theme.

Hopefully this dude releases a 4.3.1 version of this.

actually, he released his 4.3.1 build 3 days ago, maybe I should pay attention

[chevyrado14]

The gravity box on xposed has the vol track mod but it doesn't work on the maxx I think because of the active notifications

i hadn't looked into it yet, thought it was just theme related

thanks Mike, going to look at it right now

[chevyrado14]

There is a separate module for the themes called xtheme the gravity box adds all the ROM type mods

Sent from my XT1080

[stonehenge]

ahhh ok so i need xtheme AND gravity box

[chevyrado14]

yep install xposed app. then inside that app install their framework. might have to reboot. then install whatever modules you want. i think you have to reboot after every install. alot of the indiv. mods work without reboot. they say if they req. a reboot.

Can you ROM-flashing peeps read this and tell me if I am wrong or they are?

http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comm...ot_yet/ccrcwh5

Three different people are telling me I'm wrong but I could have sworn that ROM installations automatically wipe /system/... right?

[M.B Co]

I think it depends on the rom and how they build it.

Most roms do not wipe anything but maybe..... dalvik and cache. 4.3 Roms clear the cache for you.

I've wiped caches and data and the device admin always stuck in place if I recall correctly.

which one are you?

I'm looking at these parts towards the beginning:

1. It mounts /system/, copies a few things from there that it wants to preserve, then unmounts it:

run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "-o", "rw,remount", "/system", "/system");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "-o", "rw,remount", "/", "/");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "cp", "/system/app/Superuser.apk", "/Superuser.apk");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "cp", "/system/xbin/su", "/su");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "cp", "/system/etc/init.d/99SuperSUDaemon", "/init.d/99SuperSUDaemon");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "cp", "/system/xbin/daemonsu", "/daemonsu");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "cp", "/system/bin/.ext/.su", "/.ext/.su");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "cp", "/system/etc/install-recovery.sh", "/install-recovery.sh");
unmount("/system");

2. formats /system/:

format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.0/by-name/system", "0", "/system");
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.0/by-name/system", "/system");

3. copies new rom files to /system/, copies "preserved" files from earlier, removes temporary "preserved" files:

package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "cp", "/Superuser.apk", "/system/app/Superuser.apk");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "cp", "/su", "/system/xbin/su");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "cp", "--parents", "/.ext/.su", "/system/bin");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "cp", "/daemonsu", "/system/xbin/daemonsu");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "cp", "--parents", "/init.d/99SuperSUDaemon", "/system/etc");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "cp", "/install-recovery.sh", "/system/etc/install-recovery.sh");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "rm", "/Superuser.apk");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "rm", "/su");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "rm", "-r", "/init.d");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "rm", "/daemonsu");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "rm", "/install-recovery.sh");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "rm", "-r", "/.ext");

lemme download a CM zip just to see if they do it too
