Xposed framework - Squier - 2013-08-28
RE: Xposed framework - GizBeat - 2013-09-21
Thanks for taking the time to post this. MaxP made me aware of it shortly before your post, but we hadn't gotten around to putting it up.
The Xposed Framework and GravityBox have made a big difference with many small changes easily made.
Some of the things I did:
- Disabled capacitive backlight
- Added transparent image to quick settings / notification drawer
- Pull down quick settings single-finger from left corner
- 20 Quick-Settings (4x5)
- Phone ringer / system sounds expandable volume panel
- Circular battery icon
- % battery remaining shown in middle of battery icon
- Advanced reboot menu (though I use Quickboot, still ticked this)
- Minimum dim level set to 10
- Screen dim before screen timeout set to 5
- CRT screen off effect (simulates old CRT monitor turning off)
- If no notifications, quick-settings pulls down instead
There are also some genuine 'fixes' as well that fix errors in some firmwares, but none of the errors listed applied to my firmware, so I left them alone.
Maybe not a lot individually, but combined they really make a difference. A lot of these were available as permanent patches in custom firmwares for the 7500+, or as patches that could be applied to very specific versions of custom firmwares. This system gets rid of all that and lets you make all these customizations with a tap or two.

There are a bunch of other tweaks you can make, but these seemed the most logical and useful. Some of the other tweaks are 'fancy' tweaks as well, such as the CRT effect and the fullscreen caller photo (which I didn't enable since I don't have pictures associated with most of the people I talk on the phone with).

does it work to inew?
RE: Xposed framework - GizBeat - 2013-09-21
It should work on any phone with a relatively standard version of 4.2 or 4.3. Make sure you have access to firmware for your phone or a backup prior to installing.

The PerAppSettings MOD is for me the most useful one, changing DPI per app. For such a big phone as the iNew, this is really a must have!

I always use the NAND-backup in CWM and backup my data every night with Titanium Backup; for me that's a perfect combination. Never fails :-)

that's sounds a good idea!
as I understand first things first , root and put cwm to phone
and then nandroid backup , so if something goes wrong and phone will be unable
to boot , go into recovery , restore backup and everything back in order right?
RE: Xposed framework - GizBeat - 2013-09-21
Sounds about right. Or root and backup system data and apps with Titanium. SP Flash firmware and restore from Titanium if needed. IMO, nandroid AND Titanium is over doing it. If you can't find firmware for your phone, the Nandroid backup is a better solution.
