Kevin, Many thanks for providing not just one custom ROM for this phone but three!
I have choosen your HikeOS 4.2 as my favorite and here are some changes I have made:
1. I have added Email.apk, GalleryGoogle.apk and libcameracustom.so to get Email and working AutoFocus and non-crashing camera from a similar phone custom rom: HikeOS_JY-G3_Android_4.2.1_V3
2. Added Barcode Scanner from market to demonstate working AutoFocus.
3. Replaced bootanimation.zip with one that I like.
4. Removed GPS Status. The YGPS system apk that is designed for this phone gives faster locks. To get easy access to YGPS I have included QuickShortcutMaker and xShortcut free from market. First create a shortcut for YGPS with QuickShortcutMaker then create another shortcut for YGPS with xShortcut free with its Capture Shortcut mode. The xShortcut allows the YGPS run in back ground mode to work.
5. Added MT GPS from market to manually download EPO files every couple of weeks. I use the GPS EPO assistance mode for faster first time locks. I disable A-GPS mode to not use my mobile data.
6. I have modified SunBeam.apk to a Lockscreen wallpaper I like. To use launch Hike Themes and select Themes Style on the left with the Clock and apply.
7. For changable Lockscreen wallpaper I have moved theme SunBeam.apk from sytem to data/app directory to allow easy updating with APK editor that I have included from market. With APK editor "Select Apk from App" and scroll all the way to the bottom and select com.hike.them.SunBeam. Select "Resource". Select "drawable-hdpi" and scroll all the way to the bottom and select lock_wallpaper.png and replace with any 540 x 960 png or jpg file you want. Select Save then exit app. Your installable apk is in ApkEditor directory on your SD card. No need to reapply the Theme your change will take effect after installing.
Here is the link to the altered ROM:

Thanks.
The YGPS shortcuts and MT GPS should work for any MediaTek MT6577 phone.
The LockScreen wallpaper method should work for any HikeOS that has the same BootLoop issue or that has disabled the custom wallpapers for the lockscreen.
The libcameracustom.so is a recommended AutoFocus fix for any MediaTek custom rom when the auto focus is not working.

The Ultimate Look and feel changing theming guide!!!

(Thread featured on linuxine.com!!Read the article:-http://www.linuxine.com/story/ultimate-look-and-feel-changing-theming-guide
Important:This is a request from me,please post some screenshots for me to use.ill give u credit and will be grateful to you
This is a complete theming guide for android!!!it allows you to change the look of android completely to diifferent skins and os's
Windows Phone 7​
This is a simple procedure to change the interface of android to windows phone
First of all,I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY HARM YOU MAY CAUSE TO YOUR DEVICE!!!!!!
First download these awesome softwares from other cool devs available on the play store or as apks on the net
Launcher 7(Home screen)
Photo safari(Pictures hub)
Z player (Music Player)
WP7 Notifications(Notifications.Duh!!)
My xbox live(games hub)
Wp7 Lock(lock screen)
WP7 Contacts(Contacts)
Wp7 Phone(optional)
Wp7 calculator
Wp7 email
Downloaded? Now for the second step,Shift all the user apps to system apps.Apps like the phone and music should be replaced.Xbox live,calculator can just be loaded.NoteELETE THE ODEX FILES IF YOURE DELETING A SYSTEM APP!!!
In case you dont knw how to make a user app to system read on,else,skip the next para
There are two ways you can convert a user app to system:The NOOB way and the XDA way!
Noob wayownload titanium backup pro,long press an app,go to special functions and click move to system app Or download system app mover.
XDA way:
Important: Make sure to allow any SuperUser permission requests that you may get during these steps..
Procedure
Configuring ES File Explorer for root read/write access (required only once):
Launch ES File Explorer, press Menu and tap ‘Settings’.
In the settings, enable the ‘Up to root’ check box.
Further down in the settings, enable ‘Root Explorer’ check box. You will get a warning that you should confirm.
You will then get the Superuser permissions request that you must allow.
Finally, enable the ‘Mount File System’ check box, and press the back key to get back to the explorer interface. ES File Explorer is now configured to work as a root explorer. You do not need to do this again on the same device now, unless you uninstall ES File Explorer, perform a factory reset or install another ROM.
Finding the APK of an already-installed normal app (skip to step 3 if you already have the APK):
First of all, install the app from Play Store, if you haven’t already done that.
Launch ES File Explorer and go to /data/app. (You may have to press the back button to get to / first).
If you know the icon of the app, you can easily find it here. If you are having trouble finding the app here due to the confusing names or because of having a lot of apps installed, just search for the app in Google Play Store in a web browser and look at its Play Store link for the name. The file name will basically be the part after ?id= in its market link (and before any other question mark that may or may not appear in the link).
If you already have the APK of the file that you want to install as a system app, make sure you have transferred it to your device’s SD card if you haven’t done that already. Also make sure you know the path where you have copied it on the SD card.
Once you have located the required APK on the SD card from ES File Explorer, tap-and-hold on its icon till you get a menu, and tap ‘Cut’. You should see a little blue arrow on the bottom of the screen now. (You may select ‘Copy’ instead of ‘Cut’ if you are copying a file over from the SD card and want to keep a copy there. In case of copying an APK from /data/app, always use ‘Cut’.)ES File Explorer Copying
Now press the back button till you reach / and then browse to /system/app/
Tap the little arrow that you see on the bottom of the screen. It will bring up a pane with the icon of the copied file.
Tap on the file’s icon, and it will be transferred to /system/app/.
Now find the app’s icon in the list of files there and tap-and-hold on it till you get the menu.
Scroll down in the menu till you see ‘Properties’ and tap on it. You will now see the properties dialog.
Tap the ‘Change’ button in front of the Permissions to bring up the permissions dialog.
Make sure everything under ‘Read’ is checked, only ‘User’ is checked under ‘Write’ and nothing is checked under ‘Execute’ Your screen should look like the following:ES File Explorer Permissions
Tap OK on this screen and then on the Properties screen. Your app’s permissions are now set correctly.
Reboot your device. Your app is now ready to be used as a system app.(optional)
Well were done!
youre ready to use ur brand new WP7!!!

[How To] Add More Apps in Ultra Power Saving Mode (UPSM)

UPSM is good way to save some battery when needed, but only a very limited apps we can use under UPSM. With root access, we can add more apps support in UPSM.
Well, the whole idea of UPSM is to save battery, why on earth we want to add more apps to drain the battery? Because we can :victory:
For the start, our mod will add a few applications so you can test it out before customizing your own application list.
Apps added in our mod:
1) Camera
2) Gallery
3) Torch (included AOSP torch.apk for this feature)
4) Chrome
5) Hangout
Instruction to add more apps to UPSM
1) Download the UPSM_Add_More_Apps.zip from : http://electron-team.com/ADDONS/other/
2) Put zip file in sd card.
3) Boot in recovery and clear cache partition
4) Flash the zip file and reboot your phone
5) Boot into UPSM to test the added applications
How to add your own apps?
6) Go to system/csc and open up allowed_apps_upsm.xml with text editor
7) Add your desired applications. You need to know the application Package Name and the Main Class Name. Check the app's Android.Manifest.xml to find out.
8) Then go to phone data/data/com.sec.android.emergencylauncher/databases/ and delete EmergencyLauncherUPSM.db
9) Reboot your phone.
10) Done.
Note: Music app doesn't work in UPSM because some background services has been turn off.
Wish to have Xposed module or app to easily add more app to UPSM? Me too. Let's hope somebody could make one in future.:fingers-crossed:

My S5 does not have in system/csc a file named "allowed_apps_upsm.xml". It only has: contents.db, customer.xml, default_workspace.xml, feature.xml, others.xml, and sales_code.dat. Help?!
Also will this work on a Sprint Galaxy S5? (SM-G900P)
I hope that someone will turn on music files on upsm.
hello, is it possible to have gps turned on while screen is off.
I want to run Sports Tracker in this mode, but it stops working after turning off the screen

Please can u post '' allowed_apps_upsm.xml '' i would try on galaxy tab s ^^
Thanks
I don't have in com.android.sec.emergencylauncher this file.......db And upsm manager don't work on omega 7.1 why ?
Obviously if you run more apps, you'll use some more power when you're using those new apps in power save mode. But will adding more to the menu use any more power while you're not using these?
What I'm really trying to establish is if there's any negative point to adding more apps in power save mode.

Hey mate, I think I came across something today that may answer your question.
After adding settings with UPSM manager, I went into "manage apps" and discovered that whilst in this mode, all apps are marked as "disabled" except for those that work in upsm.
Based on this observation, it seems like UPSM actually disables all apps (and by consequence their background services) to save battery, not just hiding them.
So to answer your question, I'd guess that adding more apps will not in itself cause battery drain, unless the apps have battery/ram consuming background services. Therefore my approach is to enable as few apps as I need (whatsapp, music etc), whilst leaving off apps like facebook which has notifications etc.
Hope that helps you or someone
Work with NE5?
Does this work with NE5? I can't seem to get it to work. I am stock rooted without tripping KNOX.
I don't have either of the mentioned files:
system/csc/allowed_apps_upsm.xml
data/data/com.sec.android.emergencylauncher/databases/EmergencyLauncherUPSM.db
I don't even have the data/data/com.sec.android.emergencylauncher/databases directory.
Tried using the app and that adds the system/csc/allowed_apps_upsm.xml file but it doesn't affect the available applications list in UPM mode.
link doesn't work anymore (404). can somebody upload xml file I don't have it on my S5 . Will it work on lollipop?

[MOD] [4.2.2] All Apps In Multi Windows

Here is a mod to make all your apps multi windows compatible.
THIS MOD WORKS ONLY WITH 4.2.2
I know that there are some apps here and there that do the same job but the advantage of this mod is that:
1-it works without any third part app which means that you'll save some ram and some battery,
2-with third apps when you install a new app you have to reboot to have that new app to show in the multi windows tray, whereas with this mod you don't need to reboot, the app shows straight away in the tray.
DO A BACKUP JUST IN CASE
Installation
Download AllAppsMultiWindowsMega6.3.zip, flash it from recovery, clean dalvik cache, reboot.
Bonus
I added a second zip called permissions mw.zip.
It contains files that will enable you to activate two hidden functions in the multiwindows tray (recent and templates), and to have multi instance.
DO NOT FLASH IT but extract the two files.
Navigate to your system/etc/permissions folder.
Add .bak at the end of com.sec.feature.multiwindow.xml so that it becomes com.sec.feature.multiwindow.xml.bak.
Copy the two files from the zip into the folder.
Set permissions to rw, r, r (6, 4, 4).
Reboot.
Now you can see a recent tray at the top of the flashbar (multii windows bar), and a button with a cross at the bottom (below the edit button) of it that is the template button.
Bugs
I found the recent function somehow wonky, but it kinda works and maybe it'll work better for you depending on your phone's configuration.
Multi instance doesn't work for all apps, and for some apps one can't open two windows one after the other (one has to open one window of let's say app A, then app B, then one can open a second window of app A with the first app A still open).
Enjoy!
thank you so much for this

Pixel Launcher Magisk Module Mod

This is a Pixel Launcher mod. An ADB Installer until TWRP is ready. Nothing fancy, just a few simple options. You can change app drawer background-text color (separately for light mode and dark mode), remove weather (at a glance) from Launcher. Change the number of hot seat icons on home page (and size) as well as change the number of columns-rows in the app drawer.
Root required
Instructions.
1. Unzip ADB Mods Installer Files.zip on your PC
2. ADB debugging Enabled
3. Run TulsadiverModsInstaller.bat (Give ADB Root Permissions)
4. Flash one of the Bases First. They provide the necessary smali files and public ID's for everything to work. Low-medium-high refer to how high the hotseat icons reside on the home page.
5. Go through the other options selecting what all mods you want. It is generally best to start at the top and work your way down.
6. Once finished with selections, run "Complete Installation" at the bottom. This will generate your mymagisklauncher.zip module in a folder called "ozop" on your sdcard.

Do you know if it would be possible to mod the launcher to change the default homescreen. Like to be able to swipe left to other pages. Thanks!

Check in magisk app and make sure adb shell has root permission. Then start over but unless you are on an old version of android, use this one. If it is just saying something like system not mounted, ignore it.
