5) YouTube adaway-
Admit it we all hate to see ads on YouTube and if you are on a slow internet connection every second of ad (or rather the ad buffering) feels like hell. This is where this small but effective module comes into play it removes YouTube ads from the official Android YouTube app.
4) Xpiracy-
With Xpiracy you can comfortably manage the rights of apps. For example, if you want to limit the privileges that your YouTube app has and deny it access to your contact list, you can easily do that from within Xpiracy. After all you wouldn’t want your flashlight app to have access to calling phone numbers and sending msg. This module helps in reducing the pesky permission that each app asks (one of the most irritating things on android). A small advice don’t restrict the permission without knowing its usefulness for the app or it may start behaving strangely
3) Tinted Status bar-
A simple module that allows you to select the colors of the status bar and status bar icons based on what kind of app or website you’ve got open. It automatically adjusts the color if you don’t want to set it manually .wondering what is so useful about this module? It just looks great and beautiful.
2)XMULTI Window-
This module brings the famed and the much hyped multiwindow feature of highend Samsung galaxy device to any android phone It also adds a sidebar, as seen in Samsung’s Galaxy devices, to quickly add apps in multi-window mode. The module works well with most of the apps but causes problem with few apps(it is a new module and the developer is trying to fix it).The module is very useful especially if your phone does not have any added customization from your OEM .It helps great deal in multitasking.
1)Gravity Box-
My all time favorite modules and the one that will always be there on my phone while running stock rom. it's built for stock Nexus devices or devices running on close to “AOSP” and "clean" AOSP ROMs. This module does everything that a custom rom is designed to do .It was initially designed for MediaTek users because MediaTek users did not have access to custom roms due to lack of sources. Later it was modified to work with vanilla ui (or something very close to it based phones. This module does not work on roms like CyanogenMod or miui it does not even work on Samsung phones running touchwiz UI.
Few features of gravity box
