Hello guys this is my first thread so be nice ok! :)

well,now i'm gonna tell you how to enabling qslide ( floating launcher ) feature on LG Optimus L7 II becuz on default is hidden by LG

1.your phone must be rooted ( no **** )
2.you've Basically know how to compile & decompile
3.notepad++
4.Brainware :silly:

ok then, lets do this
- decompile your LGSystemUI.apk
- open res/values/bools.xml with notepad++
- change the value of:

HTML:
<bool name="config_systemui_feature_floating_launcher">false</bool>

from "false" to "true"

HTML:
<bool name="config_systemui_feature_floating_launcher">true</bool>

-save and exit
-recompile and push back to system/app
-reboot

Why did they add floating launcher to the systemui and hide it? :)

Thanks, I will try this!

Most probably, because by default, LG used the same systemui, framework, launcher, and so on, both on L7 II and L9 II. Since they wanted L9 II to be a "more premium" device, they've hidden/deleted some software features in L7 II, making L9 II looking much more up-to-date and advanced on software side.

Nice work bro. :good:
Any chance to upload your ios looks alike statusbar? I love it. :)

for moving signal icon to the left find this code:

HTML:
<include android:id="@id/signal_cluster" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" layout="@layout/signal_cluster_view" />

cut & paste to below this code:

HTML:
<LinearLayout android:orientation="horizontal" android:id="@id/notification_icon_area" android:tag="NO_R2L" android:layout_width="0.0dip" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_weight="1.0">

here's preview of my status_bar.xml : https://www.dropbox.com/s/edtfh2i3rrwm3rt/status_bar.xml

You must decompile apk, not just unzip... Means, you must have properly installed java, tool for compile/decompile etc.
My way to do this job is quite compilcated to explain in this post, but if noone do it, if i have time, i make tutorial.
If someone have easyer way to decompile/compile apks for LG, please share.

How do I decompile apks Pls?
And can you share your system UI to our phones ?

Try this tutorial http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2706692 , easiest way to decompile apk's I think, LGSystemUI.apk attached it's for stock odexed ROM. *NOTE: Please, backup first your original LGSystemUI.apk incase something goes wrong.

Dude, you must decompile LGSystemUI.apk first.

    Can you please attach your modified file so as to be used (replaced) simply by me and others because it's a very hard process to combile and decompile this file ....? thanks in advance .


    OK, Your phone is rooted, and have CWM, then make backup.
    Here is my LGSystemUI.apk; https://yadi.sk/d/ZaMvGicsW9xZx.
    Just copy it (and overwrite) in system/app, set permissions -rw-r--r-- (like other apps in folder), delete LGGystemUI.odex (thats why must make backup), and reboot.
    Good luck...

    the phone is now no error message, but in the status bar stands for something that should not be there, I post a screenshot with the error. I once shared with my LGSystemUI, they can check out times you may find the error

    Oh, that is costum text in the status bar that i used. Sorry mate. Here is new LGSystemUI with no costum text. https://www.dropbox.com/s/c9v8vpykyscpzg7/LGSystemUI.apk
