First of all......just for fun !!!

collage_00_zps24b95b8e.jpg

A big thanks to @Cloudyfa for his wonderful rom and to @devadip for his encouragement and support.

After an hard and long labor of patience and times spent,i'd like to suggest you this "little work" on cloudyg3 2.0
(even if i think that many apk work perfectly also on 2.1 version,i'm waiting for user's confirmation).

Basicly,this is a cloudy's rom skin, but i put in also some mods, especially in ui.
i tried to recreate a style inspired on new grafic interface ANDROID L.

I modified these apks (with screenshot):

folder "app"


-----------------------------------------------------
folder "framework"


-----------------------------------------------------
folder "priv-app"


all screenshots can be seen here


Installation:
all apk are odex (except LGSystemUI.apk and LGFmradio.apk that are deodex)
there are two ways to install (for odex apk)

1) flash this zip http://www.mediafire.com/download/cneeq1tgvn3v2vn/all.zip

2) overwrite one by one all apk
you can dowload all here : https://www.mediafire.com/folder/04b6t1qx0yhtb/cloudyg3_-_l

for LGSystemUI e LGFmradio: firstly delete the relative odex and then copy manually (overwriting) on respective folders with the right permission (rw-r-r)

LGSystemUI (folder "priv-app")
http://www.mediafire.com/download/ybyogz2d0oze673/lgsystemui.apk

LGFmradio (folder "app")
http://www.mediafire.com/download/p52f7zloka5ai53/lgfmradio.apk


Updates

LGGallery (overwrite in folder "priv-app") here
LGConciergeBoard (folder "priv-app") here (flashable zip)
LGMyWellness (folder "priv-app") here (flashable zip)

Weather Icons for LGConciergeBoard (flashable zip)
weather_my_real here
weather_plex here
weather_G3_recolored here
weather_G3 (stock) here

Fix

LGContacts for Quickwindow

here (overwrite in "priv-app" rw-r-r)
thanks @Christian Nothing for reporting and for testing

LGContacts (fix for Russian users)

here (flashable)


The only bug i met is this little menu of LGEasysettings that i couldn't change
when i recompile the apk this is the error:
fixed in new version :)


_____________________________

New Version
- fixed black text in LGMusic and LGBrowser
- new option in LGSystemUI
- new skin in dialer (new contact pictures, full screen, central composition)
- fixed LGSettings, LGEasySettings, lge-res, framework, com.lge.sui.widget, LGLockScreenSettings, LGSettingsAccessibility

(screenshot)


LGSystemUI (screenshot)

Installation:
all apk are odex (except LGSystemUI.apk that is deodex)
there are two ways to install (for odex apk)

1) flash this zip

2) overwrite one by one all apk
you can dowload all here

LGSystemUI here (flashable zip)

Why 2.0 version and not 2.1?
because when 2.1 version it was released, my work was in final fase,
and i didn't want to begin another time all this job.
However i look into 2.1 rom and i saw that all the apk are
same of 2.0 version, so i think there will be not problems of compatibility.

it is recommended a nandroid backup!!

Everything works fine in CloudyG3 2.1 odex.

And I didn't see any change in Quicksettings bar. But I am using G3 TweaksBox before.

great work. my hats off to you...

one question - if i have g3 tweaksbox installed, does it interfere with some graphic elements from this skin? (especially notification panel quicksettings circle icons)

btw @glfsd - you should add a donate button to your profile ;) i think this deserves a donation, at least for a beer or two... especially if you plan to do more skins in the future

I am using that QuickSettings and looks like a charm.

another question:
- can the "enter pin" start up screen be colored dark? (not important, but it would be nice)

one advice:
if manually replacing lgsystemUI.apk - do it from twrp, because if you do it from your file manager - you'll end up with "lgsystem ui" error message that won't go away unless you force shut down (by pressing the power button for more than 10sec)

better way to do this:
0. save those 2 files somewhere on internal storage
1. enter twrp (2.8.x.x preffered)
2. in twrp > file manager
3. browse to "system/priv-app" folder and delete lgsystemui.apk & lgsystemui.odex
4. browse to "folder where you saved OP file(s)"
5. copy "lgsystemui.apk" to "system/priv-app"
6. select "lgsystemui.apk" and options will pop up for that file > select "chmod 644" (to give it rw-r-r permissions)
7. reboot

the same can be done for FM radio app as well, but it doesn't affect the system so it can be done as desribed in OP...

cheers

another thing...
can that "data counter" in the status bar be turned off? (or moved to right)
every time i want to pull the notifications bar down, i accidentally press it so it takes the screenshot :)

screenshots i've promised in the pm

1. white pin screen
2. white statusbar / shadow on the clock & data + clipboard action text (select all/copy/paste...) is dark (i think white text or any other lighter one would look better there)

    Please give us a chance to donate to you.

    And really like that Black Android L Theme ( http://xdaforums.com/lg-g3/themes-apps/theme-g3-clean-look-kk-4-4-2-t2834442)

    If you can make one like that to tour G2, a lot people will be happy.

    Thanks and great work.

    is there someway to remove screenshot button?im always hitting it

    yep... you can remove it, or place it on the right side of the statusbar (if you're left-handed as myself who also hit it everytime when trying to pull down the notification panel)...

    it's a bit complicated to do so because it includes decompiling/recompiling the LGSystemUI.apk - but i'll try to explain ( @glfsd helped me through PM with this)

    before you do anything - make sure you have the latest LG G2 drivers installed properly

    this works on Windows PC - make sure you have a backup of original "LGSystemUI.apk" somewhere in case anything goes wrong...

    - you'll need "TickleMyAndroid" app for decompiling/compiling the apk
    get it from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1633333 (also, i hope you have java already installed)

    - you'll need "Notepad++" for editing ".xml" file

    with TickleMyAndroid you decompile the "LGSystemUI.apk" (i didn't know how to do it - but i got it very quickly" - instruction for decompiling would be too long - so i'll skip it) - and the basics are explained in the "TickleMyAndroid" app thread

    when you've decompiled the apk

    open res\layout\status_bar.xml and delete this (or just change the "left" to "right" if you want to keep that button, just moved to the right side of the statusbar)
    Code:
    <LinearLayout android:gravity="left" android:orientation="horizontal" android:id="@id/nav_buttons" android:focusable="false" android:clipChildren="false" android:clipToPadding="false" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:animateLayoutChanges="true">
            <com.android.systemui.statusbar.policy.KeyButtonView android:layout_width="64.0dip" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_weight="0.0" systemui:keyCode="120" systemui:keyRepeat="false" systemui:glowBackground="@drawable/ic_sysbar_highlight" />
        </LinearLayout>

    - save the ".xml"

    - recompile the apk
    - copy it from TickleMyAndroid's "OUT" folder somewhere on the device (sd card prefferable)
    - follow my instructions from the 1st page on how to use TWRP to copy files to system folders and change its permissions...

    ps:
    i'm a noob in compiling/decompiling apk's - but i got it in about half an hour...
