Hi Guys.

it seems Samsung removed the option to hide applications in the app draw for the new NF4 Update.
I use this feature a lot so decided to bring it back.

its a really simple mod and shouldn't cause any problems.

ill assumed you know how to decompile etc.

OK Lets get started.

Decompile secLauncher4.apk

Navigate to SecLauncher4\smali\com\android\launcher2\Launcher.smali

Search for "sput-boolean v3, Lcom/android/launcher2/Launcher;->isSystemAppDisable:Z"

Change to "sput-boolean v2, Lcom/android/launcher2/Launcher;->isSystemAppDisable:Z"

done.

Recompile and push to phone.

feel fry to add this into your roms, but please give credit :)

Tbh thats not really the point of the thread. The idea is people do it themselves. Plus they can redo it when newer versions are released rather than waiting on someone to do it for them :)

Why would a zip only work for deodexed?

In odex roms you have 2 files
Something.apk
Somerhing.odex


If you put the modded seclauncher4.apk (deodexed) in a flashable zip, that would only replace the apk keeping the old odex file (which has to be deleted someway).

So since one has to go to system priv-app to delete the odex file, why not just replace the seclauncher4.apk too to get mod.
Unless you want to odex the file again after modding it and put both apk and odex in a flashable zip ).

Yeah i get that mate. If i was to make an odex version i would do it properly. But ill only be making a deodexed one and stating that its done for a deodexed seclauncher ;)

Or add a line to updater script that will delete the odex file first ;)

Ok, then just use my attached modded apk, make a flashablae zip out of it together with a script that deletes odex file ' if present'.
