This is where you can come to get your stock S4 apps blacked out! The white background for MMS, contacts, calculator, etc are so bright, and annoying! Not to mention the fact that the S4 has a Super AMOLED display, which consumes a ton of power while using apps with white backgrounds. This is why i have done what i have. If you text a lot, this can help save some battery life, as black pixels take 0 power to display. Due to so many things being tied into framework/twframework, i have moved to a "black it all out" system. This will now flash everything in one go (MMS, Contacts, Phone (not blacked out yet), Framework, TWFramework, and Calculator)).

 

 

Currently only for Verizon S4 Hyperdrive by Sbreen! It's been reported that this CAN work on other builds/stock. You may try it as well, just don't blame me if something goes wrong :)

 

 

PLEASE READ THE FAQ'S BELOW BEFORE FLASHING OR ASKING QUESTIONS :)

FAQ

 

Q: Can i flash these on any S4 ROM?

A: Yes and no. The framework apk's are from Sbreen's Hyperdrive, but it may also work on other ROMs for the Verizon variant as well.

 

 

Q: Why can the above not be flashed on any ROM?

A: The MMS and phone both have things like the main background and settings menu text tied into framework. So if you flash this on another ROM, you could experience problems.

 

Q: How can i get the above on any ROM?

A: Send me the framework and I'll get it done as soon as i can.

 

Q: Will this wipe any data?

A: Sort of. Since flashing the framework is required, you will need to set up your accounts (Google, email, etc) again after booting up.

 

Q: Do i need to wipe caches before flashing?

A: No

 

JUST A HEADS UP: Even though the MMS/contacts says it has phone as well, i put that there because phone and contacts are tied to each other, BUT the phone itself has NOT been blacked out yet. Also note that with framework being tied in, it can also black out some other random things.

Sure! It may take a while due to their closed source bull crap ;) and my specialty is blacking out things that are already blacked out :)

Since framework is so tied into this (twframework might be as well) I'm just going to black those out while I'm at it... lol

Probably just a bad download. Try again :)
