Request: Stock LG home - LG G8X ThinQ Themes, Apps, and Mods

I messed up mine and like a dummy I didn't make a back up.
Does anyone have the APK, or can point me to the right direction?
Thanks

Are you looking for the Home theme apk or Home launcher apk?
Give the full name and I'll upload it for you.

If you tried to update it (using the Home from Velvet for example), you can revert it back to the original version by uninstalling the update. Go to App Info>Home and click the three dots in the top right hand corner.

[Q] Hide the page indicator in TouchWiz

Hi there,
loving my new Galaxy but I don't really fancy the page indicator telling me what page of the home screen I am on. Any option to hide it? And no I wanna stick with TouchWiz so no other Launcher suggestions please ;-)
Thanks
DoubleYou
anybody any ideas?
Hmmm I'm curious about this too.....
Im still very n00b to android but off the top of my head im thinking about the possibility of getting into the touchwiz files and making the page indicator graphics transparent.
There's probably another, more efficient way than that but..... .
I've no idea if that's possible but I would certainly hope so. Ill be looking into theming this thing when I get my sgs2 and if I have any luck ill let you know.
I hate page indicators.......

Yes let me know please in case you find a way? I was actually hoping someone had already found a way to do this though ;-)

I did it....
I dont know if there are any differences between the touchwiz apks in different ROMS but to be on the safe side, upload the file "TouchWiz30Launcher.apk" from "/system/app" for me and I will get rid of that pesky page indicator for you.
Its not completely removed, it still works if you long press on it, its just invisible.

sounds great will PM you tomorrow.
hmmm just noticed that the numbers are still there.
I was using a black wallpaper so I didnt notice before...
Damn. Will keep playomg around with it.
I also would of thought it would be as simple as making the numbers transparent, even a blank .png file?

Afraid not. They are called into play by a line of code somewhere.
They can be disabled in the same way you would disable the names of apps displayed under the icons our another item of text. Its just a matter of finding the right line to tweak.

Ah, that makes sense. Hmm bit of pain!

[Q] Missing Messaging Icon from undertray Galaxy S2

Hi,
I have somehow accidently deleted the Messaging Icon from the undertray where the 4 standard icons go, now the problem is the messaging icon is not in the applications so cannot drag it back there again!
Does someone know how I can get this back, if I search the phone the Messaging Icon is there and I can click it to go to messaging, but it just isn't in the applications so cannot drag it back when editing the undertray.
I am completely stock and not rooted (yet...)
Thanks in advance,
Go to applications, click on the menu button and select list view. This is an alphabetical sort, so messaging should be there under M.
how the devil did you do that! i thought the four icons in TW4 were locked in place? id love to be able to change them but keep the TW4 launcher
kinda mad since your not rooted, you have any idea how you did it?

Applications -> Menu -> Edit
Now you can drag and drop the icons around
@Sleepycat3 Thanks for the reply, I tried as you suggested but the Messaging App is not in the list (see attachment).
Anyone got anymore suggestions, it is really driving me mad!!
@Crucio_ As to how I did it, I have now worked that out...
Hit Applications, Press Menu, then Press Edit you can now drag all Apps around including the undertray. Be careful though if you remove the Messaging App you can't get it back - As I have found out
I would suggest trying to re install the message app, or push it with adb/root explorer. But if your not rooted i don't know enough about these things to give you proper advice.
Only thing i would say try is get the .apk for the message app and install it and see what happens

[Q] Getting rid of TW Screen Capture...

At the very least I found the png for the screen cap button that I can blank out, but I'd really love to remove the functionality that's running in the background.
Is the ScreenCaptureService.apk the only related file? Anyone try removing this?
(forum won't let me post under development, so I'm posting here)

Making the PNG transparent will look like the button is gone, but it will still be there when you tap that area. Removing screencaptureservice.apk will cause fcs when you tap the screenshot button, for me anyway.

Well I just removed the apk, and I'm not getting any visible fcs when I press it. The button still clicks, but nothing happens.
I guess the next question is...where do I look to try removing the actual button? Presumably a layout file somewere?
(If it isn't already apparent, I'm new at this. Experienced developer, but new to android.)

A a starting point: decompile the systemui.apk, check the smali/com/android/statusbar/tablet: MiniModeAppsPanel.smali et al.
No sources so its reverse engineering task.

Thanks for the direction. Found the code in smali\com\android\systemui\statusbar\tablet, but I think I'm in over my head in these files for the amount of time I have to commit to this. I'll mess with it a bit later today and see where I end up.

The screen capture references I was looking for are in TabletStatusBar.smali. The easiest thing to do would be to just add a 'return' at the top of the onclick handler for the button (in conjunction with blanking out the png)...but obviously the button would still be there. I'm think getting rid of it cleanly would be over my head, but if anyone else has any interest in picking up from here please post with your findings.

hmm, i try it.
Getting errors in compiling after i try to change the smali
Why remove it? Lets remap it to a custom activity... The same can be done with the TW mini-app bar. Those can all be custom activities...
If you really want to remove the functionality, the quick and dirty would be to simply delete the ScreenCaptureService.apk from your system apps. Then make your icon transparent. Removing the blank space between the multitasking and menu (within apps) buttons may require a tiny bit of smali and/or XML layout tweaks.

It might help if you provide a bit more detail, such as what ROM you're using and the launcher you're using.
Assuming however that you are using a stock Streak, the home screen you refer to is just a widget and can be replaced by looking for it in the widgets.

[Theme] Touch Pro **Updated w/ Zip**

I've been working on this theme for a while now, I keep running into issues, but for the most part I've been able to do what I need to do. I'm still tweaking things here and there but will make sure to update with the zip folder containing the theme. The notification bar is hidden and can be pulled down by swiping down or clicking the icon on the top. The app drawer can be brought up from the icon along the center of the bottom.
Any comments are always helpful, let me know what you guys like and don't like. Loving this app so far!
*Updated Zip (01-14-14)*
fine looking theme m8
Looks awesome! The only thing I didn't see in the screenshots was the app drawer icon. If you could squeeze that somewhere and publish already - that'd be great. I'd love to install it and see how it handles.
Thanks guys, the theme's complete and I've sent it to MCS. Hopefully we'll see it on their homepage soon.
The app drawer is accessed by the icon that is at the center of the bottom.
I'll publish this for you guys when I get home!
Yay

OMG and I thought I was the only one who missed the touchflow 3d htc days!! would love to have the zip for this theme ASAP!
Alright guys, sorry for the wait. I updated the first post with the most recent zip export. Let me know if you guys would like to see something changed or another theme made up. I love designing nice themes

Download the zip folder and place it into your SD card under the MyColorScreen>Themer>Exported directory. You'll then be able to select it from clicking Browse Themes>Exported Themes.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, this is off the top of my head

Thanks for that. So, all the different "themes" shown on the mycolorscreen website...do those all need to be replicated manually? Or is there a zip file for each one of those?

That depends on if that person set it up using themer or not. I've seen a lot that use nova launcher and a few other widget programs so I believe those have to be replicated manually. That's the nice thing about themer, put the zip folder on your phone and it works right away.

I learned by going the long way, it goes into the zip folder in the exported folder
Works for me! Good job! One thing though...on the main screen, the three icons for camera, calendar and Chrome don't work. It brings up the playstore with "retry" on it. I have all those installed. How do I change what app they are pointing to?

I literally just made a shortcut to the Camera, Calender and Browser and changed the icon. I'm sure the icons are in the zip folder so you could always delete the shortcuts, add them again with your shortcuts and change the icon. It works correctly on my phone surprisingly
Wow amazing work!!!!
What I would recommend is that you can use holo looks ...Everyone likes holo looks !! black doesn't suit this type of setup.try using transparent glass background(I mean kinda like a tinted glass or a semitransparent glass)
Something like this
