hey guys :D

Can any one help to delete spen option from note4 secsettings.apk ?! :confused:
I did it in my ROM's Note 4 Settings. And removed Private Mode too. You have to decompile SecSettings.apk and remove the item from specific xml file in xml folder and recompile it back. I can write a name of xml file later when I will be at home.

1) Decompile SecSettings.apk
2) Go to res/xml and open file: grid_settings_headers.xml
3) Delete line: <header android:icon="@drawable/ic_setting_grid_spen" android:id="@id/pen_settings_menu" android:title="@string/pen_settings_title" android:fragment="com.android.settings.SPenSettingsMenu" />
4) Recompile SecSettings.apk
5) Open old SecSettings.apk and copy META-INF and AndroidManifest.xml into the new compiled SecSettings.apk to sign it.
6) Copy SecSettings.apk into Priv-app in the phone using Root explorer and set permissions to rw-r--r--.
7) Reboot phone and it's done

I hope that this can help you ;)
