Found this app and bought it before stumbling upon this post. I do have to admit, the app is abslutely epic for modifying your S-view. PowerAmp controls work like a charm, changing the colors of the s view text, the background, etc. I totally recommend it, it is worth its money as an N9005 user

Hi hilmi94zul,

i tried your tutorial on my Galaxy Note 3 Neo N750, i'm on stock 4.2
when i just rename SViewCoverService.apk to SViewCoverService.apk.bak, i only got black screen.. :crying:
but when i also rename SViewCoverService.odex to SViewCoverService.odex.bak, i got set s-view color (just hang there) :( :(

i guess this doesn't work on N750..or maybe i'm doing something wrong? :confused:

much appreciate :D

    To make it easy here the tutorial....

    If using phone I prefer to use root explorer. If using laptop just need 7zip.

    1. Download my modded sviewcoverservice.apk https://mega.co.nz/#!aAR3BJqB!8anPU32TCLeSOa0h4AG71PYoPfrWbc2bqFARJC_iFzc
    2. Prepare your favourite wallpaper with resolution 1002x954 pixel and rename to mainbg_pattern_mainarea.png
    3. Change modded apk to .zip(if you are using phone. If using laptop just open using 7zip)
    4. Go to res/drawable-sw360dp-xxhdpi
    5. Find mainbg_pattern_mainarea.png to mainbg_pattern_mainareax.png
    6. Copy your wallpaper n paste inside the folder
    7. Zip the file back and rename back to .apk
    8. Go to system/app and rename original SViewCoverService.apk to SViewCoverService.apk.bak
    9. Copy and paste your modded SViewCoverService.apk and set permission to r-w-r-r
    10. Reboot

    Dear All, may i know a guide if i already change the dpi on my note 3? it doesn't show the wallpaper full screen, i'm using Dr. Ketan custom rom and i already use the sview fix 2 & fix 3, still doesn't help

    i've also tried to edit sview.apk from the original apk and change the .png.. but this method doesn't give any effect.. it still showing the standard background

    please help

    thanks

    Install xposed framework.

    Then install appsettings.
    Then look for sviewcover.apk and set to 480dpi.
    Save and reboot
