All white status bar icons in Lava Iris 405+ Android 4.4.2 Kitkat (UPDATED)

Get all white status bar icons in Android 4.4.2 Kitkat

        After upgrading to Android 4.4.2 Kitkat on Lava Iris 405+, you may have noticed some changes. The most visible change is the status bar icons. As we know, with Android 4.4 Kitkat, Google has decided to finally get rid of the blue holo icons and change to white. But, in this phone, not all the icons are white. The signal bars and data connection indicators like (G, E, 3G and H) are still the same color (blue, orange, purple and green). If you want to get pure Android kitkat experience, then you may want to change those icons to white too. No any apps are able to change that (not even Xposed modules and Gravitybox). So, here I'm providing you the SystemUI.apk file which I have modded to change those icons to white.

NOTE: This is only for Lava Iris 405+ running Android 4.4.2 Kitkat. DON'T try it on Jellybean.

Requirements:

1. For this, you need to root the phone. If you don't know how to root, check out this article "Root Lava Iris 405+ Kitkat version".
2. SystemUI.apk

Steps:

1. Using root explorer, ES File Explorer or X-plore, go to root/system/priv-app folder.

2. Delete SystemUI.apk and SystemUI.odex file.

3. Then copy the downloaded SystemUI.apk file in that priv-app folder

4. Restart your phone and enjoy the white icons.

Flash Stock Rom on Lava Iris 405+

Flash Stock Rom on Lava Iris 405+/ Unbrick your phone

Bricked your Lava Iris 405+? Now unbrick it easily by flashing the stock ROM.

If you are an avid Android user, you may have rooted and tried to install some apps or custom ROMs or kernels and bricked your phone. Any Android device can get bricked when you perform advanced actions like flashing a custom rom or rooting the phone. The fear of bricking their device keeps many Android users from going advanced and thus prevents them from enjoying the many perks of rooting. When your phone is bricked, it will not turn on or it will face boot-loop (stuck in boot logo); it becomes useless as a brick. If you have already bricked your device and want to restore it to original, then this tutorial is for you.

Requirements:-

1. Lava Iris 405+ Android phone, USB cable

-Extract the downloaded archive in any place. (Iris 405+ S115 2014-02-22)

-Install the drivers from the "Driver" folder. Choose according to your system whether it is 32-bit(x86) or 64-bit(x64)
-Keep USB cable connected to the back port of computer.

-Power off your phone, remove battery and again put battery in.
-Open "Flash Tool" folder and double-click on Flash_tool
-Click on Scatter-loading and choose "MT6572_Android_scatter.txt" from Firmware folder

-Now click on download.

Download Mode

-While pressing volume down key, connect USB cable to phone. Computer will detect the phone and the drivers will install.
