Show off what you've done, discuss roms, root methods, devices, what you can do, etc.
I recently rooted my Galaxy S4 on build MK2(4.3) with this method. I have Titanium backup and froze all the system apps that I don't need (I'm not going to uninstall them in fear it breaks future ota updates), Greenify, SetCPU, Adblock, Busybox, a root explorer (ES), Xposed, and Wanam. I think I have what I need.
Here's some screenshots of what I've done in customization.
Tinted status bar:
Notifications and such:
For some reason, the quick toggles and handle aren't bright white.
My homescreen for good measure:
My status bar:
And I found an Xposed module that backports KitKat toast notifications:
So that's what I've done on customization.
As for the rom I'm on and custom recovery, I'm still on stock for both. Verizon seems to not understand what "open source" means and locks their bootloaders (which you can't get around right now), and the same goes for Samsung for KNOX and SEAndroid. I wish I'd never taken the MJ7 ota, but I wasn't really thinking about rooting or romming then.
So what's your rooting/romming experience?
