Hello, everyone! I have seen this mentioned in a few of the posts here in this community but no one had posted it as a thread.

Just wanted to post this here in case you might be interested in tweaking stock Touchwiz without needing a custom recovery (which we do not have yet). I have confirmed a lot of these tweaks work (mostly the theme tab)...some of the tweaks I did not have a use for so I did not test. Please test at your own risk and report back if something does not work for you! Neither Wanam or I are responsible for any issues you may run into...use at your own risk! Have fun!

I think I did something wrong because when I changed the colors on the notifications they didn't change

I have mine rooted but the last time I did this and rebooted (I installed the framework and wanum) it crashed touch wiz upon reboot and I was Sol.

Any instructions on how anyone installed this without the crash?

Yeah I got it going I kept liking thru the threads and saw a screen write where someone was showing what you needed to do, I never noticed the button before I guess because I am used to 3minit on my GS4 you don't have to do that but thanks for the help

I installed the framework and rebooted. Then downloaded Wanam thru the Play Store and enabled the module in Xposed and then rebooted. Then I went in and made my changes in Wanam and rebooted again. Lots of rebooting LOL but I had no errors at all.

Thanks tropazr . That worked for me. I did a clean reboot before starting this process just in case. Now I'm able to play with a lot of settings! It's like a custom rom a la carte!! :)

As long as you reboot after exposed before you install Wanam you can do all the tweaks in Wanam without rebooting of course you do have to reboot before any of them take effect.
Also be careful with some of the tweaks that have to do with actual operation of your phone concerning calls and whatnot I found them to lead to boot loops on this device time to time. As the original poster mention the ones in the "Theme" category are generally safe. Should you messed something up and going to a bootloop just re root you'll be fine.

So i think installing MobileIron and my companies admin settings are conflicting with Wnum and I am again facing a soft reboot. Starts up but immediatley crashes. How do I get to ADB so I can disable wanum?

Can someone check to see if your S Health still works after using Wanam? I'm trying to narrow down the tweak that breaks it.

edit... So it seems that Xposed breaks it for whatever reason.

    Thanks, I will ask this question about the pen window in his topic.

    btw the LED works with volume up when the screen is off.

    Here you go for the Pen Window stuff.

    You have my thanks and $10. Loving this multitweak monster on my N3.

    Yes! Please donate to Wanam! With this module there is zero need for a custom ROM. So amazing!

    OK, so I tried pulling the two files from a stock rom and replacing the ones in the system/app. I made sure that the permissions were set correctly and rebooted. Unfortunately, it did not work and the email app still crashes constantly.

    At this point I'm looking to go back to square one and start fresh. I'm backing up as much data as I can, but probably will want to start fresh and just re-download apps and recreate settings, etc. All contacts and such are linked to gmail/exchange accounts so no problem there. I've manually backed up photos/videos and there's really not much else that I need to retain.

    So my question is, what is the best way to get back to stock and start over? I originally rooted with Universal Root de la Vega. I was looking at the dev thread and I think I may want to use the UrDroid stock AT&T MJ5 deodexed rom moving forward. Is this a good idea?

    I'm still such a noob to this and want to make sure I'm doing the right steps, so if anyone can walk me through it, I'd appreciate it.

    Absolutely man. I understand!

    UrDroid is a great "stock" rooted ROM. In fact, it's what my ROM is based off. Honestly, I recently had to "OneClick" back to completely stock and re-root with Root De La Vega. Luckily, I had the old RLDV files saved on my computer so I was able to use the old method which honestly seemed easier (didn't have to learn how to do it again ;) ).

    PM me. I can give you my Hangout ID and I can explain....(too long to type on here).
