VillainTheme System for the Nexus 5
Linked below is a template of the VR Theme System for the Nexus 5. I noticed that some of you had butchered pulser_g2's beautiful code to get it working on our device (as well as some incorrectly coded updater-scripts). So, I thought I'd try to do a more proper job (hopefully I did ).
All credit goes to @pulser_g2 and the Villain ROM Team. I just added some code to include the new /system/priv-app folder found in KitKat.
The original thread can be found here:

Let me know if there are any issues and we can work together to get it fixed.

Thanks for this...I actually released a theme a few days ago using Vrtheme and works perfectly. So this should be fine as well...

I know people have got it to work. But the few I looked at simply hijacked /system/app for /system/priv-app. This is fine as well, but they lost the ability to theme /system/app. Just thought I'd share a fully working version with everyone.

Yup that's what I had to add as well...so it would target both not jus one or the other....( app/priv-app) the theme I did targeted both...

Motorola Atrix 4G Boot Animation, Wallpapers, Ringtones

Hey everybody, got some wallpapers, ringtones, and a boot animation from the Motorola Atrix 4G. Enjoy!
I think the boot animation should work on most devices. I tested it out on my Samsung Captivate. I promise it's more impressive on the phone than in my video below. My camera doesn't capture dark colors well.
Full Motorola Atrix 4G system dump available at BriefMobile. Please visit our website and follow us on Twitter.

I am not responsible for the boot animation working on your device. Don't be angry if something bad happens!
Did you try running any of the apps?
That MediaCenter.apk and OlympusCamera.apk look tempting... heh
btw the mediafire link is already down... the others are good for now though
edit: oh yeah, that's android 2.2 right? That looks like it can be used to make a really nice theme indeed...

Nope. They will not work. I'll see if I can make one for CM6. Btw, does anyone use CM6 now, since development has stopped?
I tried installing the camera app, but it didn't install. The ROM's even got a fingerprint sensor app.

I've been keeping up with the CM7 thread and I just don't want to deal with all the extra hassles with minimal benefit.
btw I saw in another thread that you need the framework-res.apk for the png's. Is the original OK? If so, see attatchment

[INFO] Flashable Google Wallet v0.5

I have decided to move my download links to ACS forum as that is my new home! Hope to see you guys over there for the download!
http://www.forums.acsyndicate.net/showthread.php/3240-DEV-Flashable-Google-Wallet-v0.5?p=13712
Hey guys,
I just saw a high demand for keeping the current ROM you are on and being able to get google wallet on your device. I looked through the update and pulled the files ( apks, libs, certs..etc ) I felt might be necessary for google wallet to work on our devices. If you want to test this zip file you are doing so at your own risk, i only have it wiping the dalvik cache but i have tested it on CM 125 and 126 and seems to be working fine.
as always
DO A BACKUP OF YOUR CURRENT SYSTEM BEFORE FLASHING THIS VIA RECOVERY
I am no responsible for anything that happens from this flashable zip
so here is a v0.8 posted by nauckwj...
he figured out a way to get the new r33 version working on nexus s for other carriers ( tmobile tested )
takes a little more work as you have to delete a line out of your etc/hosts file, but at least its working and lets you add a card!
nauckwj said:
Finally!
Got this (more recent) version of Wallet working on TMobile Nexus S.
If you remove 127.0.0 1 www.google-analytics.com from your /etc/hosts file (normally done via AdBlocker-Hosts) then you MIGHT be able to get your CitiBank card to work too. I did.
This fix removes the carrier/handset restrictions that force it to only work on Sprint NS4G.
Try it and let me know if it works for you

they'd have to come out with updates for any phone that they want to have run the wallet app. its a bit more complicated than an apk unfortunately... there are library files and I think they also modified the framework to support the wallet app, but im still looking into that right now

Naa. They try to leave the apps out of the gapps package. They have the packman app in the gapps to give you a straight link to the soups you need

[ROM][Beta] Everybody Rom

The idea behind this is that you download the rom and add tweaks to it and if its better than what I already have, that will replace the what's already up but remember it has to be based off of the orig. Once you have installed your tweaks/theme post a download link and sceenshots. I would like to have two different roms, one is ics based the other one is sense based.
[Edit] when you edit make sure you do not include miktweaks as i dont have permission to use that,if you do have miktweaks in there your rom will not be considered
Rom's current status:won't boot up past plash screen

Nice to see this posted here. Alright so now with basic troubleshooting. I'm not very great at this as I'm a themer but maybe a dev will step in and help out too.
First off I need to ask how you "Created" this ROM. What apks did you copy from where. what apks did you modify, how you modified them because we don't have much to go on. And also If you could upload your ROM to media fire or dev host or something and post PUBLICLY because the PM thing will end in failure.
Let's try to get this ball rolling :beer:

So as I said in my previous post you grabbed my Rosie.apk and your phone ROM does not have the resources capable of booting Sense 3.0
Also data/app will not work unless you have the data/app enabled and built into the updater-script

im gonna take a stab in the dark here and say its never gonna work without the proper resources because alot of the tweaks are done in the smali in the jar files. without the proper corresponding smali edits to go with the apks its essentially pointless but i wish ya the best of luck.

IAN67K from IAN67H OTA?

I have this sneaking suspicion that the I/O Q's shipped with H loaded but K in the recovery or whatever. I noticed that mine had changed when i did a factory reset. I don't know for sure though.

No. I don't own a Q actually. I operate a firmware repository for every Nexus device from the Nexus S onward. I mirror official factory images and OTA updates for posterity. The site is http://randomphantasmagoria.com. I just added a page for the NQ today and was looking to see if anyone had the OTA link so I could mirror it.

If anyone that has a NQ is willing to take about 30 minutes to assist: I'd like to find the IAN67K ota:
If you would like to help, here's what you can do:
Reflash IAN67K (if you are not already on stock, and you must be on stock to do this)
Root your device
Change the following lines in build.prop:
Code:
ro.build.date.utc=1339795569

I'll give it a try in a little while.
You might need to check adb logcat while doing the check for updates, as we do not have the actual URL for it, just giving the filename will only give the filename.
I'm not sure how setting up adb works on the NQ though, I assume it's like normal devices as it has a usb port(?)
(if you know how to set up adb you can skip to step 7)
Download platform tools
Download usb drivers
extract both packages
Turn on usb debugging (I dont know the exact steps to do this on the NQ)
Install the drivers if windows requests it (and I am assuming you are using windows)
go to where you extracted platform tools and do "adb logcat"
Check for updates, if there is one available then post the contents of logcat
If you are able to get that far you can just directly post the logcat if you do not know how to read it.

Given the current (lack) of news on the NQ, it seems unlikely.
I dont even own one but I'd hope it does too.
Like a hypothetical merger of NQ type media streamers and google TVs into KLP like how ICS merged tablets and phones.
But I digress
Because we now have this information, I have created a Nexus Q page on the website to mirror the firmware.

Yeah it seems like a very minor update.
User facing changes:
Hubbroker.apk got updated (what is this? is it the NQ's launcher?)
Music2.apk got updated
Lib/frameworks/non user facing updates:
/system/bin/common_time
/system/framework/ext.jar
/system/framework/framework-res.apk
/system/vendor/lib/libWVStreamControlAPI_L1.so (WV as in widevine?)
and that's it, every other file is simply updating the timestamp.
OK, so maybe a dumb question, so bare with me here. I m new to the Q but not the android world.
How would us users who have a stock Q go about updating to this latest version. I am having issues with my Q after about 20 minutes and was hoping to give this a whirl and see if it fixes it.

I can almost guarantee you have the latest version as its been around since I got the Q last July.
I have the same issue you have as well. I'm pretty sure its a Google back end thing and not a problem with the build. Although Google may release an update that fixes the problem.

Hi all. Is 2.1 using Android 4.4.4? Why isn't it using NE9? (Diff between that and NI2?) Are there any known bugs to this release? If so, could we expect a 2.5 release semi-soon? I'm scared to flash due to other people's troubles so far but have been eagerly waiting an update! This has been a near-perfect ROM for me who likes minimal and stripped down. Making it even more stripped down starts to make me worry though. Haven't any experience with mods other than viper4android. Is that HX camera mod better than the included camera in ExtremeSyndicate 1.5?
Sorry for newb post.
there isnt much dif in ni2.. just a newer version.. it is more debloated but you dont really need to mod anything.. just simply install/push what you want to the phone

I got the message from other post, so I need to flash a keyboard apk (Android L keyboard is fine) after I install the ROM?

That is correct. Find a Android keyboard apk and place it in internal storage or on sdcard. After you have flashed the ROM use the "My Files" app included in the ROM to install the keyboard apk. That is how I understand the process. I'm not sure, but trying to install the "L" keyboard might not be a simple as installing an apk. I think, but not sure, there are some supporting files that you need for the "L" keyboard to properly function. A simple, no frills keyboard may be a better option until you're up and running and then try installing the "L" keyboard or other keyboard from the play store.

yea I got it installed, yet as someone said earlier. I installed google calendar and it does not sync for some reason. Hopefully can find out why. Also any chance of the black theme coming back?

Good to hear. I'm not sure about the dark theme, we'll have to ask elliwigy. As far as Google Calendar not syncing, elliwigy removed more "stuff" for this build, he may have eliminated a file needed for sync.

Camera?
How would I get the factory camera work?
I refuse to flash without the black & white theme!!! So good!!! Can't live with Samsung theme. Thanks for all your hard work on this ROM though Elliwigy!! I'll stick with 1.5 until this is updated!

Gotta stick to your guns man! Ignore the special requests that fall out of your scope of support and if they don't like it, then oh well. Good to see you're still around :good:

+1 on what BigBot96 said. Your ROM is exactly what I had been wanting for years. A lean, fast, great battery ROM that provided all the basic functions of a smartphone without all the BS bells and whistles. No matter what you do, there will always be someone who wants something different than what YOU want. Let potential users of your ROM know up front what you offer and if that doesn't "float their boat" they can either not flash your ROM or they can add what they want. Let them know up front that you don't offer or support a "buffet line of options". They can like it or, well, leave it and go flash something else.
I miss this rom! For all my devices, with all the roms I tried, this was my favorite. If I could build a rom (which I can't), I would have built something almost identical to this one. You stated you stopped developing because you were busy, tired of trying to debloat more and tired of getting flamed. I accept your stopping as version 1 was to me perfection, and I agree, it would have been so hard to improve upon it.
I tried a couple of other roms. While good, they were not nearly as perfect as this one. I think I'll go back to version 1 to see if I can figure out what is missing from version 2. Then it's back to glory for me. Thanks for all your hard work. I've been busy traveling that I didn't take the time to tell you thanks man. Happy holidays. If you build another rom, can you post a notice here. All the best.
version 2.1 was updated to ni2 but before i could theme n work out some kinks i shut it down.. i was working on the opposite but ran into some issues with 5.0 apks not working.. I will be posting a new rom as soon as we get 5.0! i already have a working list of what to debloat (based on disecting the g900f build) so you will see me again! In the meantime, I have been learning to code since ultimately I want to create apks for various things

I never did understand why people expected stuff to be added back into a ROM when it's main purpose was to be "lighter" with each update makes no sense to me lol. Anyway, I'm running V1 and it's simply awesome! I just rooted and installed V1 on my wife's phone today (she actually ASKED me to root it lmao, I about fell over) but I would really like to have the flashlight toggle that appears to be included in V1.5. Is there an easy way to get the flashlight toggle? Is there a link somewhere for V1.5 (I haven't found one yet)? Can I dirty flash it over V1?

Nevermind, I found the older builds in your ROM thread. Thanks for all you do! I'd rather use an iPh0ne than a stock Veriz0n S5. Not really, but close lol.
I will be updating rom to L hopefully by end of tonight!
