With root finally here I figured I would go ahead and port some themes for the US model.


DISCLAIMER: THIS CAN BREAK YOUR DEVICE, IF IT DOES THEN I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR IT. IF YOU COME TO ME CRYING BECAUSE YOUR PHONE IS BROKEN I WILL POINT AND LAUGH AT YOU. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

Now then, on to the good stuff.


ARE THERE ANY PREREQUISITES?
YEP. Root and an unlocked bootloader. Lol, jk. You just need root, but I got ya, huh?

WHAT IS THIS?
This is the first true theme for the G4 Variants with locked bootloaders.

WHAT DOES IT DO?
It replaces stock icons in your statusbar/quicksettings with more google(ish?) ones.

WHAT DO I DO TO GET THIS?
I thought you'd never ask:

1. Backup using Titanium Backup.
2. Download the file below somewhere you can remember.
3. BACK UP YOUR CURRENT LGSystemUI.apk (system\priv-app\LGSystemUI\) BEFORE YOU REPLACE IT. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
4. Using any root explorer place the apk in system\priv-app\LGSystemUI\.
5. Replace the old one (THAT YOU BETTER HAVE BACKED UP) by renaming the downloaded LGSystemUI[insertcarrierhere].apk to just LGSystemUI.apk.
6. Change permissions to rw-r-r.
7. Reboot.

That's it. Enjoy your new theme. If you want to revert back just take the old backup that you made (you did make it, right?) and repeat steps 4-7.

WHERE DA LINK AT?!
Right here:
7/27/2015 (AT&T) (810)
7/27/2015 (T-Mobile) (811)
7/28/2015 (Verizon) (vs986)
7/27/2015 (Euro) (815)

If your variant is not listed above it is because I have not yet made it yet. Upload your *CLEAN* LGSystemUI.apk and I will have it back to you ASAP (if I'm not AFK then it will take five minutes.)

CREDITS:
-Me for porting this and making the thread.
-kickoff for doing most of the work in the first place. Be sure and go thank him!


THIS IS A PORT, SO BEFORE YOU COME WHINING TO ME ABOUT HOW KICKOFF'S THEME HAS THIS AND THAT AND THIS PORT DOES NOT:
1. SUCK MY A**.
2. BE PATIENT, THIS IS A WIP AND YOU GUYS DON'T PAY ME ENOUGH TO GRIPE.

Is everything straight with it. Just want to make sure before I move it over. It came out with no icon, just the green robot which usually means something's not compiled right..
currently running it fine on mine, the reason why it is the green Andy is because it's a system app.

No go. I get a glimpse of the status bar while on the lockscreen, but once I unlock it systemui crashes with no status bar or nav keys. I wiped dalvik just in case but still no bueno.
Did you give me a clean LGSystemUI.apk? If so then this shouldn't be happening.
