That's actually good in my eyes. lol. I think my moto droid spent more time on the charger than off.
[General Topics] brd912:
Well see if I wake up at 8am like normal,I'd like my phone to last until night time,but my inspire dies around 6pm. Im a hard core android fan,but I've came to grip with the fact that iphones aren't just a trend,its because its a smartphone you can count on. Ive heard iPhone horror stories,but maybe 1 to every 10 million android horror stories. Not baggin android,just sayin that for me,an iPhone may do the trick.

I love android but I do have to agree with you that the battery life does generally suck.
[General Topics] vnvman:
Yeah, i was about to get a Blackberry these days just because of that lol: zombie phones/os don't need to be fed often i guess :D
[General Topics] mrrick:
I have three (3) chargers strategically placed through out my house, I have one (1) in my truck, and I have one (1) in my office at work. I also have one (1) spare, fully charged, battery in the truck and one (1) in my desk. Battery life is not an issue.

[General Topics] ccgabe:
That is the right answer!

I have a charger in the car, one at my desk and one by the bed. That usually keeps me going all day unless I forget to plug it in. I would support a slightly thicker phone if it meant better battery life.
[General Topics] stoudtlr:
Lol. Sounds like me.

Same here. One in the office, one by bed, one in car, one at girlfriends. Usually never have an issue unless I'm really busy at the office and don't have time to sit at my desk with it charging...

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k_nivesout:
You don't need any software, just plug your phone into your computer in USB storage mode, then find where your phone stores photos. It'll be on the SD card or internal storage. Both should mount on your computer.

Here it is! My #1 aggravation with this phone: the lockscreen.
[LG Revolution] njKeever:
Can't wait for this download! I thought you might have put it on Rootwiki first but I guess I'll just have to be patient. :-) Thank you though, other than my random shutdowns the lockscreen is the only annoying thing about this phone I haven't been able to change!
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
I haven't posted the download yet only because I didn't have the right update-binary...

[LG Revolution] njKeever:

[LG Revolution] AndroidCraig:
Thanks. Pretty cool.

So now that you've had an hour's rest, When are you doing a port of Gingerbread? ;-) Shouldn't take you more than what a week? :)

Seriously if I want to contribute for your efforts do I just do one contribution or one for each thing you've done? Also since I'm new to this, what kind of donation is typical?
[LG Revolution] nfederic:
What did you use to accomplish the changes you outlined in the technical portion. Thanks, I'm having issues with that part.
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
Gingerbread is coming soooon :) I'm working hard on it, I've even got a test build going, but it doesn't recognize 4g and it seems to put the phone in a weird state. I'll put out screenshots as a tease here soon :)

As far as donations, anything is fine. Like I say in every post that I put a donation button on-- I'm not in this for the donations, I'm in it for fun :)

Changes were accomplished using baksmali to decompile the archive (rename android.policy.jar to android.policy.zip and extract the classes.dex file, then feed it to baksmali). Once I changed the files, I used smali to re-generate the classes.dex file, and updated the zip file with WinRAR to include the new dex file.

To help me understand what was going on in the actual code, since smali is incomprehensible, I used dex2jar to turn the android.policy.jar into a bunch of .class files which were readable via JD-GUI. Once I had the gist of what was going on, the appropriate changes were made in the smali files (since JD-GUI files aren't re-compilable)

All in all, the changes took about 2 hours to do (mostly figuring out where the lockscreen was created and other miscellaneous digging comparing the decompiled source to the AOSP code)
[LG Revolution] nfederic:
Do I need to make those changes myself, or does your program do that? I ask because I downloaded the file and installed it using cwm as your instructions state, but I still have the stock lock screen.

thanks!
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
Program should do that automatically...

Ah, did you download the "revert to stock lockscreen" zip on accident?

I should say "revert to stock LG lockscreen".

The "install" zip is what you want :)
[LG Revolution] nfederic:
After many attempts, going back to stock, deleting downloaded files, re-downloading and installing per instructions, I still only get the stock lock. Any thoughts?
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
Which .zip are you installing?
[LG Revolution] nfederic:
aosp-lockscreen.zip
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
Hm.

So, you install the .zip, clear dalvik cache, and you still have the LG "Slide up" lockscreen when turn on your device screen?
[LG Revolution] nfederic:
yeah. right now my phone is booting with your decrapped rom. Ill try again once i have that finished.

Ill let you know.

thanks.
[LG Revolution] nfederic:
got it!!!!
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
Yay!

Excellent!
[LG Revolution] nfederic:
can't wait to see what you come up with next!!
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
Any way you can get my revo to print 100 dollar bills???
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
Yes, simply connect the optional banknote printer addon* to your device's USB port.

* Banknote printer addon not available at this time.
[LG Revolution] Mr.Greeen:
Does this change the lockscreen if somebody is calling? This definitely fixed the normal lockscreen but i am thinking the screen that comes up at requires me to slide up to answer the phone is a function of phone.apk?
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
No, that's part of Phone.apk .

I can't really mod that just yet, since it looks like LG modified the heck out of it.
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
no way to replace phone.apk with the stock 2.2 dialer?
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
Tried that, stock Phone apk looks for some resources that don't exist in our framework.

My best bet is to decompile the stock phone apk and merge it with the LG phone apk. Either that or find out what resources the AOSP apk looks for and add it in to our framework.

Not super high on my list of priorities right now :(
[LG Revolution] nfederic:
love this lockscreen! Can't wait for the emergency call and no ruim card fix.
[LG Revolution] mursepaolo:
did i read that right?! gingerbread is coming?! OMFG.
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
Well, that's true-- but I was referring to a Gingerbread theme :)

I /do/ have real Gingerbread (well, cyanogenmod7) booting, but that's about all it does. Boots, no audio, no cell, no camera, no nothing besides shows me a lovely unlock screen, which I can't even slide because I don't have the touchscreen initialized properly :)

Lockscreen

Love the new lockscreen. LG's stock lockscreen was garbage and laggy. Thanks a ton. Now, what else to put on my phone....
[LG Revolution] seokonkim:
Thanks!!

I tried AOSP Lockscreen by following your explain, Technical Information, and it works.

But in the AOSK lockscreen, if I click the menu button, lockscreen is to be unlock.(Go to main page.)

Do you know what do I have to do for keeping lockscreen even though I click the menu button?

ps. My English ability is poor. Sorry about that...!!
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
I'm not sure off the top of my head-- I can look it up for you soon.

Here's my process (if it helps):

1) run dex2jar on the android.policy.jar

2) open the resulting jar file in JD-GUI

3) open the proper code sections and follow the layout of the code (basically, work backwards from the string that says "press menu to unlock", once you find the function that puts that on the screen, look for any variables that are easy to change)

4) once you've figured out the code, run baksmali on the jar to get the smali files.

5) change the smali files according to what you visualized earlier in JD-GUI

That may help you get a better routine down to be able to find what you're looking for-- or if you still need a hand, I'll hunt it down in the code for you.

Good luck!
[LG Revolution] seokonkim:
Thanks your fast reply!!

Actually, I can't understand your explain.

Here's my process....

1)Decompile the "android.policy.jar" by APK Manager

2)Open "LockPatternKeyguardView.smali" and replacement "andy_lockscreen" with "lockscreen".(Delete "andy_")

3)Compile the "android.policy.jar"

4)Replacement classes.dex

5)Apply "android.policy.jar" to phone.

Now I can see the AOSP Lockscreen! But, If I click the menu button(haptik), it goes to main page.(TO be unlock).

Did I miss anything in my process??

Please check my process... T.,T
[LG Revolution] nick99wj:
So, odd little problem. doesnt change anything about how the phone works, but..

in the top right hand corner of the lock screen i get a message that says:

"No RUIM Car"

"Emergency Calls Only"

what does anyone think that is?

edit: I'm running the AOSP Lockscreen from this thread"
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
It is a known bug and does not bother anything, he is working on a fix
[LG Revolution] nick99wj:
thanks, yea that's what I was thinking it was ...It doesnt even remotely bother me so i'm in no rush to get that one fixed.

thanks again
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
Actually, because it is cosmetic, he has stated that he's not working on a fix. If you tear down the APK and want to dig, I'm 'sure' it wouldn't be that hard of a fix.

-famous last words
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
actually, I'm looking at it right now :)

It's just two lines of code.. I'd probably either just blank it out or change the small line of text to "TheCubed" :)
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
LOL - go for the latter ...

I thought you had stated you were going to leave that one alone? I guess I should have figured you couldn't leave anything alone forever :D Good thing too... Constant improvements all the time!

Next, you should put your fist logo on the cover...ha!
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
haha you read my mind-- the "revolution" logo is coming as a neato bootscreen :)
[LG Revolution] newkick:
what the lockscreen is also missing is the line telling you what percentage your battery is at when charging, and what time your alarm is set for. both great things to see.

oddly enough -- or, i mean, it may not be odd, i have no idea -- both of these are there after a reboot. around the time it's done scanning your sd card, they disappear, replaced with the "press menu" and the "no RUID" lines.

thanks so much for all your work, thecubed. you've made me very happy with my first android phone!
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
Yeah, for whatever reason, those messages override any status messages that can get put there.

The "press menu to unlock" text also is in the place of some notifications.

I can fix all that, but right now I'm probably going to work on a) getting wireless tether for root users ported to the phone (so we have tether working when VZW drops the free 4g tethering this week) and b) work fulltime on porting cyanogenmod

If i've got some spare time though, I'll fix the lockscreen issues...
[LG Revolution] :
I totally think TheCubed should go there. Especially since I am using your ROM and this lockscreen. You're the man!
[LG Revolution] thermal_tim:
Totally put the cubed on the lock screen... That would rock!
[LG Revolution] Rav20:
Any idea when the wireless tether will be up and working?
[LG Revolution] nfederic:
I have wifi tether working on my revolution, is there a reason why I can and others can't? I am not using the Verizon hotspot.
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
It's weird. On mine it works, but only on certain sites. XDA is one that it will not load. But other pages load just fine.
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
Mine states that I need a subscription to use it. Cubed is working on a fix (of course).
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
Right now, I am working on establishing communication with the android-wifi-tether people: http://groups.google.com/group/android-wifi-tether/browse_thread/thread/bbc22621e70bf268

With their support, I should be able to provide them with the information necessary to add Infrastructure (hotspot) tethering mode to our device.
[LG Revolution] Triskite:
what'd you do differently?

i feel like i've tried everything.

do i need to have the decrapped rom?
[LG Revolution] nfederic:
I kept trying to download it right on my phone, that never worked for me. I then downloaded it on my laptop and then moved it to the correct folder while my phone was connected as a drive.

It worked after I did that. I did have the decrapped rom installed.
[LG Revolution] manduman88:
Just curious, but which folder did you put it in? I put mine on the SD card and tried installing it via CWM for LG Revo but it won't work for some reason. It installs fine, had the Dalvik cache wiped as well, but when it reboots, it just loads the stock LG Revo lockscreen... :(
[LG Revolution] villainous:
I couldn't get it to work either, i installed and wiped the davik cache and rebooted only to find the stock screen. I don't have decrapped rom on my phone, is that necessary for this?
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
Yes. Decrapped rom is required.
[LG Revolution] mursepaolo:
is the RUIM bug still there?
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
There's no actual problem with the RUIM, the text just exists there for some reason as a "placeholder"...

mtmichaelson's version of the lockscreen doesn't have the text :

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1161936
[LG Revolution] nfederic:
It shows up under "download" on my SD card.
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
If you're downloading it on your phone, you'll have to use root explorer to move the .zip to /sdcard/_ExternalSD/

It doesn't need to go anywhere specific, but it has to be on the external SD card.
[LG Revolution] mursepaolo:
Love the mod. Hope to see more from you cubed. I'll be donating soon. :)

How's the gb theme going? Also how's gb in general going?
[LG Revolution] Triskite:
sorry if I missed the italicized 'you need the decrapped rom' if it was there before.

seems obvious now.

got it working...

anyway, with this aosp mod, can we use another lockscreen? i really need to be able to have media controls in lockscreen
[LG Revolution] crt_ben:
I used this for awhile but also missed the stock lockscreen music controls. I'm absolutely hooked on the stock notification bar controls, to my knowledge no other music app does notification bar controls, much less album art - I've tried widgetsoid but it's kinda ugly, no album art, no artist + track title, and above all it's not really controls - it opens a pop up when you click it.

ANYWAY - I'm using Widget Locker + Phantom Music Control and it works perfectly! I suggest this combo, Widget Locker is $1.99 and PMC is free.
[LG Revolution] Hiphopular:
Many thanks to Thecubed!
[LG Revolution] LowRentTechGuy:
Just curious, is there a setting to show charging percent on the AOSP lockscreen.

Not a big deal but noticed last night it wasn't there.
[LG Revolution] JohnnyAn:
I was going to ask about this too. I noticed that the charging percent and time are shown on the lockscreen briefly when the phone first boots, but it's then replaced by the "The revolution has begun!" text. It would be nice to be able to see the battery % without unplugging the phone and plugging it back in.

On another note, thanks so much for uploading this! I missed a lot of the droid 1 look so I was really excited to get this.

Thanks!
[LG Revolution] LowRentTechGuy:
The way I found around it was setting up a lock pattern. Now it displays charging info.
[LG Revolution] wheelern:
Is there anyway to change the lockscreen background? Or does it have to be the normal wallpaper?

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] travmanx:
I have been programming with Java for about 6 years now. I am currently getting my masters in college for Computer Science (Programming).

I just finished reading the book Hello, Android by Ed Burnette. It was a pretty good book I must say and got me on my feet towards developing for an Android device. For those who do not know the book, each chapter you gradually build a Sudoku game. In the later chapters it discusses some openGL, sound, video. Overall the game is pointless and a waiste.

I never really liked game programming, I wish to do something such as tools, or a feature. However I have hit a roadblock and do not know where to go from here or what to read. I get the structure of the app, the XML setups, etc but the book did not give me a good enough background on the Android System for what I would like to do.

Any suggestions?

Thanks for your help in advanced.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Zer0C0oL:
Travmanx I think the way to go from here is use your Java experience to assist in unlocking these phones. I know these guys that are doing the hard work would appreciate all the help they can get.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] meltwater:
I'm very new to android programming too and I agree there does seem to be a big gap in going from the usual tutorials and guides to really getting your feet wet and digging into proper coding.

I think the key here is to think of a simple idea and start to program it, by choosing something simple you can get the basics working quickly, while still giving you room to experiment further with extra features and improvements later on (where the real learning happens).

As to what idea... that is more difficult, I would suggest you do something which you will use so that you've got a drive to keep working on it and improve it.

i.e. If you travel, then a quick currency converter could be useful...if you play tennis then perhaps a score board...it doesn't matter much as long as the incentive is there to code it.

Look forward to hear what you decide to write!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] stinger1:
hello there

first of all +10 for ^ meltwater :)

i did an app to (scoreboard) for a card game, instead of using paper and pen.

then:

i am a Java Developer to,

and recently started doing some android apps

i already have 2 of them in the market...

i am just like you, don't like to do games, i prefer tools and other staff...

however, my point is, whenever you can build an app whatever it is,... all you need now is an idea

try to find an idea and start developing it, and on every problem you face try to dig and fix it, then continue on ur main target... otherwise i don't see any advantage of reading more books, because you have to find something to do, then try to find how to do it (based on your input with 6 years java dev)

otherwise i think you will get lost.

my opinion, find an idea and start with it, then fix every block you face.

Good Luck :)
