[Legend Themes and Apps] Dr.Romca:
It's not much, but I thought everyone should be able to theme their Legend :)

Requirements: WinZip(or any other zipping program), Android SDK, testsign, some graphics editor...

So what you need to start with is your framework files:

framework-res.apk, com.htc.resources.apk ... both are located in SYSTEM:framework/

These files are just renamed zip files, so rename them back to .zip and extract them (you can also edit them inside WINRAR or something, but it is more comfortable if you extract them)

In these, images are usually saved in res/drawable-mdpi or such, but you have to think here, allways modify all files from one resource ;)

Now locate the images you want to edit but I only know how to edit .png files (.9.png files are for a different howto, probably not by me as I've never really mastered it)

Pick those you want to edit, and edit them (I'm not gonna tell you how here, I usually use photoshop to do that ;) )

Once you have edited those images, it is recomended to optimize those png's (Firstly to make them smaller, but more importantly, most of the times the png's from Windows graphics editor didn't work for me...)

To optimize png's you can use:

OptiPNG: DOWNLOAD This one is drag'n'drop batch conversion capable...

Pngcrush: DOWNLOAD Command line utility, but it has more settings

...or something else, but I find these two the best

Once you have these optimized, copy and re-write them to folders you took them from to edit...

Now you need to zip these back, for framework files I was told it is usual to zip them as "store", but correct me someone if I'm wrong.

After you have zipped those, they will have to be re-signed. To do this, use testsign from code.google.com

Then run this in cmd line (or create a .bat file as I did, it's much easier):

java -classpath testsign.jar testsign [COLOR="DarkRed"]file.zip[/COLOR] [COLOR="DarkRed"]file-signed.zip[/COLOR]

Now that you have signed it, it is recomended to zipalign it:

(zipalign.exe is located in /tools in your SDK)

Run this in cmd line:

zipalign 4 [COLOR="DarkRed"]infile.zip[/COLOR] [COLOR="DarkRed"]outfile.zip[/COLOR]

(4 is alignment in bytes)

Now that you have aligned the .zip, rename it to the original name and then you just need to push it back to your phone:

adb shell mount /system
adb push [COLOR="DarkRed"]com.htc.resources.apk[/COLOR] /system/framework/[COLOR="DarkRed"]com.htc.resources.apk[/COLOR]

or

adb push [COLOR="DarkRed"]framework-res.apk[/COLOR] /system/framework/[COLOR="DarkRed"]framework-res.apk[/COLOR]

And you're done :)

I hope this helps someone! Enjoy!

note: This way you should be able to modify any apk I think :)

Is this the thing that has the potential to break the power menu in BlaY0's ROM, among other things?
[Legend Themes and Apps] Dr.Romca:
Amongst other things...but this works on any ROM as long as you follow the guide ;) I've succesfully ported my BattMod and Cryshop's navbar/lockscreen to B0.8 while doing these exact steps ;)
[Legend Themes and Apps] stegg:
can you post them? :D
[Legend Themes and Apps] BlaY0:
Why? He gave you quite simple instructions on how to construct it yourself, so he wouldn't need to do that for every single release for any of you.

[Legend Themes and Apps] Dr.Romca:
Right on :) I think it's simple enough...besides, I had to figure this all out myself...

It's nice when people use that round head sitting on their neck :p
[Legend Themes and Apps] stegg:
you have some personality disorder, you'd better see someone specialised in mental health care
[Legend Themes and Apps] BlaY0:
I will do that as soon as you contribute at least one theme for three different roms and then supply new updates for every new release of those roms...

Sent from my HTC Legend
[Legend Themes and Apps] Dr.Romca:
Oh come on stegg, that was uncalled for :( I just think it's a better idea to share how I did it rather then do all the work for you. Hell it would be a full time job - making themes for everyone :rolleyes:

...too bad there isn't a "what the hell?" button ...
[Legend Themes and Apps] madcat340:
Question ; are there any limitations to what you can port like different functioning slide bar / nav bar?
[Legend Themes and Apps] Dr.Romca:
This howto only tells you how to replace png's inside those framework .apk packages. And you can change navbar as well, but you'd have to make it in the same shape as long as you don't want to decompile the apk...
[Legend Themes and Apps] madcat340:
Cool thanks, I'm giving this a go now :)
[Legend Themes and Apps] caspervk:
I guess my device has to be rooted to do this? :)
[Legend Themes and Apps] Dr.Romca:
You are correct, sir :)
[Legend Themes and Apps] caspervk:
Damn... :(
[Thunderbolt General] Sdalton19:
I have read some other forums about this and i was curious if anyone knew for sure if the screen off animation "old tube tv animation" would not work with any other version of android OS except gingerbread and the reason had something to do with the framework in gingerbread.

i would really like to see this available for the thunderbolt but as far as i have read through the forums a gingerbread OS is not available as of yet for the thunderbolt.

also would like to see a mod that would allow me to change the default picture that is assigned to everyone without a picture in my contact list. ive seen it done when i was running infectedrom's virus rom but switched to perfect storm rom.

and is there anywhere that i can just look to see links to different mods without having to search through endless forums? i mean like one thread in a forum where someone has searched out everything thunderbolt or epic and posted all available links to roms. mods, and apps specifically for that phone.

i know i sound like an idiot but i really am spending a lot more time reading the forums than posting stupid questions like these. im trying to catch up lol
[Thunderbolt General] dirtyfingers:
Maybe you should create a thread with a link to every mod ever created?? Would be nice huh
[Thunderbolt General] Morkai Almandragon:
I have seen this on my wifes DInc and its awesome, I would love to see it for TB:)
[Thunderbolt General] Sdalton19:
no i mean just the things that are compatible with the device forum your in. and not every update to every mod or every version of every mod just a basic run through like

MOD screen off animations compatible with thunderbolt running 2.2

a: old tube tv link here

b: eye ball closes lid link here

c: banging your mom animation link here

something like that ya know
[Thunderbolt General] orion421:
What dirty was saying is that you should in fact make that thread, search out the mods ans create the thread.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] odst0016:
Before I say anything else i need to give credit to the CyanogenMod team without them this would not even be here. This rom is based of from CM7 RC-4 and modded by me.

Whats Changed.

-Removed adw launcher and added stock Launcher2(credit to frank707 for the mod).

-Removed various CM7 apps.

-Stock HTC Incredible bootanimation(no sound yet and when first installs turns black before it starts after that normal bootanimation).

-Added Droid notification sound and Droid ringtones(Credit for these go to Trident at AndroidForums).

-Updated music.apk

More to come...

CWM 3

Download

Grab gapps from rom manager.

Please let me know if you are able to install it installs just fine on my phone but my phone may be weird who knows.

Known issues

-Launcher messes up when going in and out of camera(temporary fix is to enter and exit cam again).

*Issue has been solved. The problem was i was using from what i could tell either an outdated or a modified stock launcher. Fixed by pulling the official stock launcher from the 2.3.3 system.img will be in next version.

Might as well flash it. I'm pretty sure I've flashed just about every rom released for the Incredible. Even in the 2.1 days. I even flashed JDKfroyo once *Shudders*.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Captainkrtek:
@OP, Im locking this thread because your ROM doesn't constitute real development. Adding and deleting APKs can be done easily and unless you have a custom theme or something that makes your ROM unique then this thread will remain locked. PM me if you would like it unlocked and if you have a good reason to unlock it.

[7 Mozart General] MielieSpoor:
I did the NoDo update earlier today, but might 18month baby girl switch of the power on the wall while the update was installing on the phone - step 8 I think it was.

It continued until the progress bar on the phone was at about 100% and since then it hangs. I don't really want to unplug the phone, but it seems like I don't have a choice since it has been hanging now for about 3 or 4 hours.

What would be the best option - send it back to my operator and ask for a new phone? (I don't really want to load custom roms etc.)
[7 Mozart General] MielieSpoor:
I decided to unplug the phone and restart it.

It took some time to restart but it eventually came up and everything was good. Zune took its time to pick the phone up but according to Zune I now have the latest version OS so I suppose everything is good.

Hello, I've had a look on LINKSLOVESANDROID's superb Tutorial http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1016084

Since I have done rooting, and s-off, and sim-unlock and everything, I spent some time looking for the right stock ROM for my phone if I will ever need to go back for stock (in case of warranty). I have done a gold card when I first rooted my phone, don't quite know how this will help.

My network is Vodafone RO and this are the software information from a friend who didn't rooted his phone, and got his desire the same time as I from the same shipment (he had an update from Eclair to Froyo):

[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Kreuger:
Hey guys, I've been having problems with my memory card lately. The one that came with the phone got damaged (due to me putting it into my card reader backwards) so I got a new one from Walmart. Since then I've had a lot of trouble. It worked ok for a day or two then at work one day I took it out of my locker and it said "bad removal". The card wasn't touched, it was just sitting in my locker. It has happened again a few times. I can temporarily fix it by reseating the card in the slot but it comes back. Now that doesn't even work. It just comes up saying I don't have a card. I've ruined my otterbox case trying to get this working (it won't grip the phone anymore because I've removed it so many times) and I'm very annoyed. I figured I'd ask if anyone has any idea what could be wrong before I go back to Bell with it. By the way, the phone is stock Android 2.2

Edit: Just realized I posted this in the wrong forum. Mod please move?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Kreuger:
anyone got any ideas?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] redpoint73:
What brand of card did you get? Some cheap cards are notorious failing long before their time.

Maybe its defective. If its still pretty new, try to exchange it.

The other issue is that maybe you damaged the card tray when you inserted the card backwards.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] IngoPan:
This really sounds like you got some b-ware. You should return it to your dealer.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Kreuger:
It's a Lexar.

Two days? Seriously?

It worked okay for the first day.

WTF is b-ware?
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] Kreuger:
Well I went into Bell and they suggested I try another card so they got one of theirs and it worked fine. It's been okay so far so I guess I'll have to keep it. Only problem is I got a 4gb instead of the 8gb from Walmart for the same price. They wanted another 20 for the 8gb. The guy wasn't totally sure what it was but he assumed it was that their cards have been tested with each phone to ensure they work whereas the otehr is just a generic card. And he mentioned something about it being class 6, whatever that is.
[G2 and Desire Z Accessories] takram:
My G2 has been experiencing SD card issues for a month or two now. I've been exclusively on CM7 nightlies, but since nobody else seems to have had this issue, I assumed it was me. Usually when using something that accessed my SD card, the phone would "unexpectedly" remove itself. Sometimes a reboot would mount my card again (can't mount through settings), but oftentimes I'd have to wait it out and reboot after a few days/reboot 20 times in hopes that it'd read it. I would re-set my SD card in the slot several times, but it doesn't do anything.

I'm still at the mercy of it and am contemplating unrooting my device to bring it in for warranty because it is a very big issue that is crippling my phone. I purchased a new SD card, but the problems still persist. Multiple data wipes/rom changes have occured as well as formatting said cards, but it's all the same.

Right now I just flashed CM7 stable (card was working [it plays funny, but if I try to use the camera, it usually dies]), and I hope that my card issues are gone, but I am fairly confident it's a hardware issue.

Actually hold off.. The Asus eee Transformer looks very promising. It's the same specs as the xoom except it has an ips screen and the sd card is working (currently not on xoom) plus it's got that extra keyboard dock to turn it into a laptop kinda thing complete with usb ports and sd card reader. It's reported that the 16gb will be 399 and the 32 gb be 499 (without the dock) but I estimate the 16gb will be 449(comparable to the acrer hc tab that just went up for pre order) and 549 for the 32gb version.. that's my guesstimate lol

I'm actually selling my xoom to get the asus. Plus the thing isnt even out yet and they already released the source code and are already talking of an OTA update a few weeks after release... which is a very promising sign. They said it has the nicest android tablet screens seen so far that is on par with the ipad 2 screen :)

And it's pretty easy to wifi tether. I use my glacier to tether to both my xoom and streak 7 and sometimes my netbook or laptop

I listed my xoom for $550 but would accept $525 so if you know anyone that wants one let me know

I'm ready to kill.. first off how is it my fault that they delivered it 3 times unsuccessfully when they didnt leave a single notification? and I was home two of those 3 days and they did try 3 times but once one day and two times another day. 2 times in the same day? really??? So I call dell.. dell is about to send me another one but they call fed ex.. fed ex tells them they are still trying to deliver the package.. fed ex ground is a joke... seriously.. they are so much worse than the normal fed ex. Now dell wont issue another replacement until they can see the first one is on it's way back
