*STING* ... lol, guess I deserved that, haha. If I see a big bulge in your pants, I'll remember it's your phone tho, so I'm not confused it might be something else, ehhe *sting back!*... :p

At 1450 mah it's not spectacular, but great for a road trip or flights to Asia... I'd just as soon carry extra batteries at $25 each, since I can get 1750 mah x 3 for the same price you paid for 1450, but I definitely understand the all-in-one concept, makes sense.

I wonder how long it will be before the line gets blurred between a 7" tablet and a 4.5" phone... I like the Dell streak aside from the fact it's dell, so maybe soon... :-)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] tankmorph:
I do tend to think of my Infuse as a mini-tablet that is more or less pocketable. In fact, I haven't touched my iPad since I got it.

My fiancee did suggest I leave my phone in the car when we went to my daughter's kindergarten graduation today. It does create quite a bulge. I'm sure she didn't want me garnering any extra attention from the soccer moms. She tends to be the jealous type. :D
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bella92108:
Yeh, I think guys and girls carry messenger bags or purses or some sort of backpack many places, so a few years ago I'd have called you crazy for suggesting a 4.5" phone, but now that I have one, I kinda want an updated 7" Galaxy Tab w\ voice\data capability. I almost pulled the trigger and bought the International Version of the Galaxy Tab 7" (it's unlocked, has voice and SMS enabled)... but given the slow processor I opted to wait until a more viable option comes out soon. I never hold a phone up to my head, and 90% of my use is text\data.... so I think it's my next natural step in evolution.

And LOL on the comment about the soccer moms w\ phone in pocket, hahaha
[Samsung Infuse 4G] briansj:
I wonder how this solution would have any side effect on the overall lifetime of the samsung battery inside tje phone.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] tankmorph:
I don't think it will make that much of a difference. It's the same as plugging it into the charger. Besides, the stock battery is replaceable and cheap. :D

Now if I were using the offGRID case on the iPhone, I might wonder about the long term effect on that internal, hard(er) to replace and (more) expensive battery.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] rjan22:
But how do you charge it, I hate that removing the battery and charging the other one on the phone, I hope there is a dock charger for it might be a good buy.

Hi,

I'm on O2 319 firmware and have noticed a bug for the Video Thumbnails. Say I recorded 5 videos, their thumbnails are automatically created in the Gallery - If I delete these 5 videos and record some other videos, the thumbnails of the older videos appear instead of the newly recorded ones. I think it is a bug on 319 - is there a way to manually delete the gallery thumbnails?

....

He's probably not around anymore or already got his answer.

No need to bump old threads.
[Android Themes] B-boy™:
First and foremost all credit goes to Alastrionia over at DF for cracking this.. Considering we haven't seen it anywhere else and most devs told us it wasn't possible w/o mega code writing.. but we prevailed (well, Alastrionia did) and he wanted to share it with the Android community... Here is a c&p of his OP over at DF.....

"First off this should work with all GB based roms that use systemui.apk

there may be subtle differences but the basics should be the same all around.

after much trial and error and ripping what little hair I have left out

success was mine and it's time to share this with everyone

and it's so simple that you'll love how fast you can integrate this into ROM's / themes / whatever your heart desires

1. take your systemui.apk and decompile it

2. navigate to layout folder

3. grab "status_bar_tracking.xml" and open it up in your editor

(now for the fun)

4. to the first line - "com.android.systemui.statusbar.TrackingView" add this ""android:background="@drawable/...anim.xml""

<com.android.systemui.statusbar.TrackingView android:background="@drawable/...anim.xml...>

5. after saving that, navigate back into the drawable folder and add your animation.xml file there

5a. next navigate into the drawable/hdpi folder and add your animated images

6. also in the drawable/hdpi folder find and open up the shade_bg.png with your editor and make it 100% transparent

7. now it's time to recompile your apk , following all the usual directions with that

8. enjoy your newly created systemui.apk with a pretty animated background. new and fresh and unlike anything before

that's it. done deal. it's super easy and fast and breathes life into true customization.

I used the stat_sys_upload.xml from the framework-res.apk as my base

all I had to do was change the timing and change the image names.

also you'll notice above - don't copy it word for word on the xml.

I did the "..." meaning whatever you decide to name your file."

*ADDED* - In the xml he says to add to the drawable folder, change the name of the anim_# pngs to something else like pulldown_anim1, pulldown_anim2, etc.. then make your new images that you add to the drawable-hdpi folder named the same, in sequence... Neither I nor Alastronia are responsible for your device so if you try this, it's at your own risk... but well worth that risk.. :D ... I don't have a video to post but I can confirm that this is legit and I am running one right now... I did test adding new png's via metamorph and zipthemer and it breaks the animation somehow... If I'm allowed to say this, shoot over to DF and locate Alastrionia and show him some donate love.. he very much deserves it... The possibilities are virtually endless as to customizing your pulldown now.. a slide show of loved ones, a cartoon image in motion, your fav boot animation, etc...

Here's an example.. My MURDER gradually grows....
[Android Themes] LordManhattan:
Exactly how is the animation(s)? Do you have a video or something? :)
[Android Themes] B-boy™:
I don't... sorry. But on df in the Droid themers section Alastrionia posted this thread and in the posts Mbk posted a video of the matrix one he made... right now we're using 5-8 anim_pngs so its still frame by frame but it's still very cool and totally different... on my screen shots, the "Murder" within the pulldown starts very small and gradually gets bigger....
[Android Themes] LfcFan1977:
deleted post because I think I know how now.
[Android Themes] santiemanuel:
And here's for froyo and maybe eclair ROMs. My port

You need transparency hack enabled

Decompile framework-res.apk

Go to drawable-hdpi and make status_bar_background.png fully transparent with PS or GIMP

GO to layout and edit the 2nd line of status_bar_tracking.xml like this

<com.android.server.status.TrackingView android:background="@drawable/status_bar_background_animation" android:orientation="vertical" android:paddingLeft="0.0px" android:paddingRight="0.0px" android:paddingBottom="0.0px" android:focusable="true" android:visibility="gone" android:descendantFocusability="afterDescendants"

where status_bar_background_animation links to status_bar_background_animation.xml in drawable folder(dont have it? create it), there you set the images and durations.
[Android Themes] LfcFan1977:
So pleased

Just got this running on my Htc Desire and should be able to go crazy with animations because of framework-res.apk being on sd-ext.

Thanks go to:

Alastrionia - for the original idea and coding.

santiemanuel - for the Froyo coding

B-boy® - for this thread

Thanks again all
[Android Themes] silverxbv2:
I'm with you until the create the xml part. Is it a similar layout to battery charge or sync animation xml?

http://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTEyOTE1MzA3OQ
[Android Themes] LfcFan1977:
status_bar_background_animation.xml

That had me stumped at first.

Simply edit this xml to have the correct number off lines for your animation images. Also, you might need to edit the duration time before putting it in the /drawable folder.

Double check your syntax in status bar tracking xml.

http://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTEyOTE1MzA3OQ
[Android Themes] wewoapsiak:
I think I added it right...

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

</com.android.systemui.statusbar.CloseDragHandle>
</com.android.systemui.statusbar.TrackingView>
[Android Themes] LfcFan1977:
@wewoapsiak

This is wrong.

<com.android.systemui.statusbar.TrackingView android:background="@drawable/...anim.xml android:orientation="vertical" android:paddingLeft="0.0px" android:paddingRight="0.0px" android:paddingBottom="0.0px" android:focusable="true" android:visibility="gone" android:descendantFocusability="afterDescendants"

It should be more like.

<com.android.systemui.statusbar.TrackingView android:background="@drawable/status_bar_background_animation.xml android:orientation="vertical" android:paddingLeft="0.0px" android:paddingRight="0.0px" android:paddingBottom="0.0px" android:focusable="true" android:visibility="gone" android:descendantFocusability="afterDescendants"

Then you need to create a status_bar_background_animation.xml to go in the /drawable folder.

Using this one (here) should be ok, just change the duration times and rename the pulldown#.png images to match your animation images.
[Android Themes] LfcFan1977:
[REQ]@B-boy

Can you please change the thread title to either include Froyo or remove the GB?

Froyo

Here is what I have come up with so far but I really need to figure out how to slimline it, framework-res.apk went from 7mb to 12mb.
[Android Themes] wewoapsiak:
Wow! That looks amazing.
[Android Themes] LfcFan1977:
Thanks :)

Played about with the durations a little since I made that gif animation so NOTIFICATION" stay on for longer and a longer pause between scrolls.

:mad: Does anybody know how I can get transparency enabled for my animation images on Froyo?

Transparency is enable for my status_bar_background.png but if I use transparency on my animation png's I get bootloop and black screen exactly when the lockscreen should appear.

Have you ran the images through a PNG optimizer? I'm guessing that is only about 15 pngs? You could also try making them 240 x 400. The phone will stretch them either way. That's what i do with boot animations to bring down the size.
[Android Themes] wewoapsiak:

Glad you got it fixed

Froyo build

On another note, I can get only 3 (70kb) partially transparent animation images in my framework without running into errors but +15 (+300kb) fully opaque animation images seems fine.

Maybe my transparent issue is due to merging visible layers when saving editted png's, I need to check this out further.

But at least it works, less hair pulling I suppose.
[Android Themes] Bastafari:
Non programmer question, can this be made into a morph for the masses or just editing the script or being incorporated in a rom?
[Android Themes] B-boy™:
It can be made into an mm but right not it only works on top of an edited SystemUI.Apk... I haven't tested making an mm our fully enough to say yes or no.....
[Android Themes] LfcFan1977:
I have not tried morphing anything for while now because I found it problematic but why not do a back-up and give it a try, let us know.

I think some devs might put it in their roms once the creases have been ironed out and we all better understand the limits for different set-ups, trial and error at the moment though.
[Android Themes] B-boy™:
What I did was make the mm with drawable,layout,and drawable-hdpi folders in the Res folder and added the xmls and pngs. ... It wworked on a couple tries but the was on top of an edited SystemUI..... I can test it further late today.....
