Thank you for your kindness, I flashed the zip and after the reboot it gives me system ui error continuously, so nothing to do, it's my rom's fault

Flashed what zip? I assume the Moto E zip I just posted in the quote

Well unless that's the phone you have that won't work for you and you need to make it yourself

Yes The Moto E zip
Ok thanks

Please don't flash files meant for other phones on your device - you are risking bricking it

If you don't know what you are doing its best not to do anything or request someone to do it for you (but please don't ask me)

Long as you have cm11 installed just follow the instructions on the first post

Can't make it any more simple
And saying it doesn't work isn't helpful if you want support - you need to provide much more details

 

[supreme01061]

With CM11 and I tried but flash the zip file and gives me an error

With CM11 and I tried but flash the zip file and gives me an error

Again - saying you have an error is not very helpful

Say what the error is - compile error, flash error, force closes, status bar disappears and so one
Did it compile successfully
Provide logs

And so on

I don't see how you expect me to help you if you don't provide details


It will work if you follow all the instructions and have properly added the smali in the correct locations & edited the xml with notepad++ correctly

 

[supreme01061]

All rules as in the first post.
Look here how to work with APKTOOL

I did not use notepad ++

 

[TheFixItMan]

I did not use notepad ++

How did you edit the xml files then - you can't use Windows notepad

Use notepad++
http://notepad-plus-plus.org/download/v6.7.5.html

Sounds like you are incorrectly modding files - I can't help you with that
Learn how to use apktool correctly & how to create flashable zips or manually push to system & set permissions to rw-r-r

Your problem sounds like user error so unfortunately I cannot help you with that

I can not understand should I delete this line

<ViewStub android:id="@id/ribbon_settings_stub" android:layout="@layout/ribbon_settings" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="@dimen/notification_min_height" />

And to put this in its place

<include android:id="@id/brightness_slider" layout="@layout/marcus_brightness" />

No you do not delete anything!


You simply paste

<include android:id="@id/brightness_slider" layout="@layout/marcus_brightness" />

Under

<ViewStub android:id="@id/ribbon_settings_stub" android:layout="@layout/ribbon_settings" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="@dimen/notification_min_height" />

So it looks like

<ViewStub android:id="@id/ribbon_settings_stub" android:layout="@layout/ribbon_settings" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="@dimen/notification_min_height" />
<include android:id="@id/brightness_slider" layout="@layout/marcus_brightness" />
