Hello everyone myself ethical ricado aka amit khirodwala
Just tried out this thing and it worked
Previously it worked on note 3 and s4
I thought it should work on all the sammy phones running Touchwiz 4.4.2
I have only tried it on my tab 3 7.0 3g (SM-T211)

UPDATE : It changes few more apps
Like my gallery has changed
calling screen but just abit
Will report more as i discover
UPDATE2: This mod also enables lockscreen art cover #Win \m/

Below are the SS

Procedure:

YOU MUST BE ROOTED AND ON THE LATEST KITKAT FW

1) Open Root Explorer
2) Go to /system/build.prop
3) Open build.prop in Text Editor
4) Edit
ro.product.name=lgsomething
ro.product.device=lgsomething

To

ro.product.name=SM-N900S
ro.product.device=SM-N900S

5) Do a proper or full reboot
6) Voila, you have the S5 notification round icons and S5's recent panel


^.^
Partyyyyyyy

Have you tried the build.prop edit that makes Holo Dark the default theme of the device? I tried it in JB, didnt work.

Interesting

Changed dpi to 180 (from 160 - original) and .... WOW....
It just keeps getting better and better.
The kitkat firmware is very amusing and i wonder how many more secrets it hides from us
(btw its also an bug settings doesnt open up and neither does task manager(wanted to see how it changed)

I tried
And it was so freaking beautiful
But the only problem was
The phone and contacts app were not working along with the gallery app and settings app
Recent menu was working
Its just they were not working with the home button
I have assigned a gesture
And it was working with that

    Thanx 4 it . And I have got a method to install ur recovery on kitkat 4.4.2 . First flash Angel's recovery and root . Then open terminal and try the dd command. I haven't tried it bcoz I haven't updated to kitkat as of now . And as soon as I will upgrade to kitkat I will be creating mods . BTW , I had created some mods for 4.2.2 stock but didn't shared them on xda. Like S5 icon pack + toggles + Accuweather widget + touchwiz home with note 3 page indicators & animated Menu button + 18 toggle mod. Everything was working awesome but I didn't shared them on xda as I had shortage of time . But now as kitkat has released , I will create mods for it also . But theming kitkat will be really hard as when I pulled a systemui.apk from sm-t211 kitkat , I found that everything in it is in .qmg format rather than .png . It will be a tough task but I will do my best .

    Half of The auto brightness tickbox goes off the screen when applying this mod on the 10.1" model

    That's only the problem with 10" model. But I have created a mod for it. It looks more like S5 . Blue theme . Will share it with xda in a few days

    if you're rooted copy this script to /system/bin and rename to f-reco and change permission to 755
    the at root prompt in terminal type ./f-reco your recovery.img must be in /sdcard/recovery.img first.


    #!/system/bin/sh
    cd /sdcard && busybox ls
    dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p11 && wait
    echo Flashing Recovery
    dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p11
    echo Done


    just for you to see what it does . This is for GT-P5210

    always share what you create. not everyone wants kitkat.

    I will share it but let me & Nonta's ROM come out. Everything is done & he is creating the 1st test build . Hope to see it working in a few days .

    Just 1 more doubt do I have to enter this code exactly in same way in terminal or some changes ? & do I need busybox pre-installed ?
