I have a working mod, let me know if you want me to make a flashable zip and I can do it.

Sent from my ROOTED DInc 2
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Relay:
Can you help me to make a mod which is based on VU 1.31.3?

Use this battery icon below & removed the recent apps from quick bar?

And set the quick bar with translucence.

Thanks a lot!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ChrisDDD:
If you can provide a framework file that already includes the other mods you're looking for, I can add in my battery mod pretty easily. I haven't looked into how to remove the recent apps, and since I'm currently pretty happy running MIUI, I haven't been fiddling with anything Sense these days.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] shoman24v:
Thanks for the SkyRaider battery mod :-)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] QBall45:
Any chance to get a 6 bar signal meter mod? Id love that for stock rooted gingersense.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
Six signal is pretty tough...no one has it on the Inc2 yet I don't think....one guy got it on the bolt and then everyone just grabbed it

I thought.I had it but sys ui didn't.Luke mt edits
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Relay:
I mainly want to remove recent apps. If no way to do it temporarily, never mind.

I am using your vivow_VU_gingerbread_accurate_battery_mod_sense so long time, very good!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cvo515:
I tried to use the VU mods on the latest version. They work and flash ok...but it messes up a few graphics in some apps on top of header. Will they be updated? Thanks for keeping up on most Roms my man
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ChrisDDD:
Which version of VU are you using? The post here still says v1.31.3, which my accurate battery mod was built for. Is there a newer version? If you're using 1.31.3, can you post a screenshot showing the messed up graphics? It'll help me track down what's causing the problem...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cvo515:
Virtuous 2.35 is out on their site and forums. They no longer post here. I used your current mods which I thought were for the older version. They worked fine for the things in the status bar...but messed up some graphics on top screen. For instance...when I was in market and hit search...the top.search bar would be an elongated battery mod with orange and 18% showing LOL. Weird Ik. Funny thing is they worked perfect for.changing battery and 3g. So they're not far off. Youd be able to get it first try id imagine. I'm not near WiFi no I'm only on phone so can't post pics. My fault. I'm on my backup of VU stock...and hating that damn evdo and gps icon.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ChrisDDD:
Ahhh, gotchya... I'm downloading their latest version now and will try to get mods up for it tomorrow.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cvo515:
Thanks bud.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cvo515:
Just noticed my first and I think only bug in this tester for VU. When gps is on a battery flashes opposite the gps icon LOL.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Zelmo88:
Many thanks for the battery mod for Newts 3D 1.0.0! Works great! Of course, he just came out with v2.0.0 this morning based on the new "official" Desire HD.....which supposedly has a different framework.......it never ends!!! :-)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ChrisDDD:
That's really strange! I suspect it has something to do with the compile errors I encountered which, unfortunately, I'm not sure I can do anything about. Unlike the previous framework (and ones for other ROMs), this new one won't cleanly decompile and recompile without resource errors.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] PearlMikeJam:
I got similar feedback when I asked about an error using UOT. The Virtuous framework, for whatever reason, is problematic, at least the version used on our device.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ChrisDDD:
I think it has to do with adding resources and making changes to the framework post-compiling. You can either decompile, add new stuff to the framework and then recompile, letting apktool sort out and assign all the resource ID's and stuff, or you can add stuff to the already built framework and manually add in your own resource IDs. If the latter is done, it'll still work fine on the phone, but apktool can't subsequently de- and recompile it cleanly anymore.

I believe once a framework is hacked post-compile, any changes would also need to be hacked into it, manually adding and assigning resources. With around 200 battery icons (100 charging and 100 discharging), that's just not something I'm too keen on doing.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] zeeeep:
I noticed the GPS/battery flashing too, so I decided to try making my own. I started with a UOT battery mod, used App Manager to decompile, made an edit to remove the crosshair icon, recompiled & signed. It's working well for me with no flashing icons. I uploaded it and posted a link on the virtuous forums (http://forums.virtuousrom.com/index.php/topic,54.0.html).

I don't want to step on any toes - I'll remove the link if you prefer.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cvo515:
Just an FYI I had andys mod applied...maybe his did it. I'll wait it out its only when I use gps anyway.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ChrisDDD:
You were able to recompile the Virtuous 2.35 framework without any warnings about no default translations or something like that? Everything I tried gave me the warnings.

Hey, you're not stepping on my toes! I'm glad to hear you seem to have gotten it working. Plus, I've been completely happy running MIUI for the past several weeks, so at this point, I'm just doing these on request.

I'm honestly not trying to pass the buck, but my bet is something else is causing the conflict. The battery mod is extremely straight forward and really shouldn't have any effect on anything else, or be driven by any other setting.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] zeeeep:
I uploaded the SystemUI.apk, framework-res.apk & com.htc.resources.apk to the UOT kitchen and picked a battery mod. From the resulting zip I took the SystemUI.apk out and decompiled it in App Manager (option 10 - which will prompt you to give it com.htc.resources.apk too). I made a smali edit to remove the location crosshair, then recompiled with App Manager. I put that SystemUI.apk back in the UOT zip and resigned it.

That is literally the only apk I've ever decompiled and I've spent a total of 3 hours or so with App Manager, so I'm no expert. I was hesitant to post the result because I'm not even sure those are the proper steps to do something like this... but it seems to have worked. Is that process different from what you do?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] PearlMikeJam:
How did you get the UOT to produce a battery mod from our files? I always get a SHTF error
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] HarleyChick:
Hey Chris, will your accurate battery mod for Newts 3D work now that he is on version 2.0?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] zeeeep:
I don't think I'm doing anything special. Just select the mod on the battery tab, go to the tab to upload the files and upload the three I mentioned (pulled straight from the Unity 2.35 zip) and submit.

I ran several different mod combinations and made a quick web page for them. Most of these are untested, so make a backup and report back which one you used and if it worked or not. In theory I don't think these should be device specific - should work for any device on VU 2.35.

http://www.zeeeep.net/Android/VirtuousUnity/2.35/
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ChrisDDD:
Not sure, but I can make one using his 2.0 framework over the weekend. If you decide to try it with the current one, just make sure you do a backup in case it doesn't work.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] shoman24v:
Do any of these work for Unity 2.3.5?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] PearlMikeJam:
Zeeps works. The 3g mod he has uses a different 3g icon than is stock on our phone.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ChrisDDD:
Here's my battery mod for VU 2.35.0. The only issue that people have had is the battery icon apparently blinks when the GPS icon blinks while acquiring, but it's not clear if the problem is in the battery mod or other mods people have flashed along with this.

vivow_VU_2.35.0_gingerbread_accurate_battery_mod_sense.zip
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] shoman24v:
Works just great, no issues as noted. Mine is stock, now I just gotta change the 3G and remove the location icon.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Relay:
It's work fine, suggest you put it to 1st page.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] QBall45:
I recall seeing a sense3 lock screen file that worked on stock rooted gb. However i am not finding it again now when im looking for it. You guys haopen to have that handy?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Relay:
Feedback: Sometimes, the backlight of 4 softkeys won't work.

I found a mod, it works normally (I have used for several days). But I don't like its style of battery, could you mod another one based this moded below? Thanks.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cvo515:
anyway to add newts 3D roms latest
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ChrisDDD:
VU no longer includes device-specific frameworks, and the sole one it comes with doesn't decompile and recompile cleanly, which I suspect is the source of these issues, since none of these things happen on other roms with clean frameworks. At this point, I'm afraid there's no much I can do about it.

I'm attaching a zip containing all my icons and the edited XML files used in this mod. Maybe the best thing would be to send these to the developer of the rom you're using, and suggest he/they include this mod from the start. The icons pretty much look as if they could be stock Sense (which was my goal) and the charging icons, I think, provides a nice bit of added functionality.

I'm going to resurrect a DOS bat program I wrote that will automate pulling a framework from a phone, adding the battery mod and pushing the framework back. I wrote it for my old Fascinate, so I just need to make sure it'll also work on Sense based frameworks. This way, people can add the mod to whatever rom they happen to be using. It's just getting difficult to keep up with each new version of each rom.

Should be able to get it up within the next day or so. I think that might be the best way to go, aside from getting the rom developer to include it from the start as I mentioned above.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Relay:
Thanks a lot.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Relay:
It's a VU 2.35 battery mod which is based on ChrisDDD's resource.

The 4 lights is fine.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Darkpsych0:
VU 2.37 just came out.. will it the battery mod still work correctly?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] zeeeep:
I haven't tried ChrisDDD's yet. The ones I created and posted for 2.35 work on 2.37 but they take out the soft keys. I remade one based on the 2.37 source files but it blows up the soft keys too. I'm going to keep trying to get something working, but have nothing for now. Hopefully ChrisDDD has better luck.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] zeeeep:
Ok, I think I finally have this working. I only have one mod working, and based on the effort required to get this one going it will be a while before I get other battery styles and/or mod combinations done. This one is the Enhanced battery style with location crosshair removed and 3G instead of EVDO. It is working on my phone and I still have softkey backlights. Unity 2.37 has a device specific framework-res.apk for vivow, so this mod is made specifically for the Inc2.

Unity237EnhancedBatteryModNoCrosshair3G.zip
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Darkpsych0:
Anyway to just get battery and 3g? :D
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] zeeeep:
You mean you want the worthless location crosshairs?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Darkpsych0:
I don't mind it as much I guess. i wish it would disappear when off but come back when I turn it on at least but eh seems like a minor thing
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] shoman24v:
Can we get the battery mod updated for 2.37 Unity? :D
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] PearlMikeJam:
The VU thread has a link to our framework for 2.37 that you can download and use in UOT. I made a battery mod with the UOT just fine. The % is not as readable as Chris' but is something.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] shoman24v:
Yeah, I don't really like the UOT mods lol
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Darkpsych0:
any update on the 2.37 battery mod? O.o
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ben805:
how do you activate the 4-in-1 boot menu on stock rooted rom? applied the patch but when i pressed the power button and select the reboot but do not see any option to boot to recovery. :confused:
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] zeeeep:
With ChrisDDD's permission I have used his source files to create 2.37 battery mods. They are available at http://www.zeeeep.net/Android/VirtuousUnity/2.37/.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tnez:
Hold down power button, select restart, then you'll see the extended options

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ben805:
I did that but still didn't get any extended options like we usually see on all the custom roms. :confused:
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tincbtrar:
Same issue. Stock ROM but only the Battery Mod works (and well!)

I would love the other two mods to remove the corssahirs and 4-in-1

Great phone btw.

Edit : Just realized the Stock ROM is probably odexed. Duh. Im surprised the battery mod worked. lol.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ChrisDDD:
Yea, sorry, you need to be deodexed for the other mods to work. A bit of a hassle if you're content with stock, but RMK's GingerSense IS pretty much just stock deodexed, so you really wouldn't notice a difference.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tincbtrar:
Thanks Chris - isnt RMK's ROM not supported anymore? Not like it would matter for a stock build.

I havent used an odexed ROM in a long time and its pretty darn snappy! I think Ill stick with this build and your work for the battery mod is much appreciated. Ill deal with the crosshairs and holding the volume button down.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Darkpsych0:
zeeep i may just love you.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ChrisDDD:
My take on his comment about not supporting it was basically that it was, in effect, the stock ROM, just rooted and deodexed. Since neither of those processes break anything, there would really be nothing to fix. So, he's not supporting it because there's nothing to support.

I really liked the stock system too, everything worked and looked good, but I switched to Miui a while back and have been really, really happy. Between that (not using Sense roms) and being incredibly busy at home/work, I haven't been able to keep updating these mods for other roms. If I get some time, I'll look into a way to get the other mods working on the stock odexed system, but I can't guarantee anything.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tincbtrar:
Of course brother. No hurries. We all have lives to live.

In the meantime I see that RMK is planning a build off of 2.3.4 stock OTA - since I just got my phone yesterday ill give it a go. Nandroid already set up...and RMK was great on the INC1
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cvo515:
Anyway to get an AOSP GB battery for icon for skyraider Zeus? I know your busy brother and If your not taking requests that's cool. Thanks for all the mods....first place I come to with a new Rom is this thread.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] andybones:
I'll make you one in the UOT kitchen.

People really should start giving the kitchen a try, literally took me 2 mins, the longest part is waiting for it to cook. It's a great resource.

Edit: total time for entire MOD - 11 minutes.

this will complete the icons with the battery:)

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] explodingboy70:
First off I have nothing to do with the creation of this tool I'm merely sharing what I've found.

Anyone who has dug into smali files knows that they can be somewhat overwhelming and trying to track down a problem can be a time consuming nightmare. One thing I do to hunt down a problem is compare what I know to be working against what is broken so I was sitting here today thinking that I would write a script or create a tool to batch compare files then I said to myself "EB, you're not the first one that's wanted to do this so there must already be something." I fired up Google and sure enough there are a few. The one that I found that is free and handled my task can be found here http://www.grigsoft.com/download-windiff.htm

Quick tutorial;

1. Download the file.

2. Create a new folder (anywhere you want)

3. Extract the contents to your new folder

4. Place the items you want to compare in that folder (they can be anywhere really but it's simpler to have them in the same directory.)(For my purposes I de-compiled the classes.dex of two framework.jar files and moved the entire output files to this directory in two separate folders.)

5. Run the program

6. Select File

7. Select either Compare Directory (what I did for my purpose) or Compare files. A dialogue box will pop up where you select the 2 sources that you want to compare.

Now this tool will only output what files are changed. There are other tools out there that can do more but I like the ones that are free. At least with this I can scan hundreds of files at once and see where I need to begin
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Lancelaut:
if you want to search for code in multiple files and what not else,

http://notepad-plus-plus.org/

has a great program for that

You can search inside the files of a whole folder if you want to....pretty cool
[HTC EVO 3D] ellisperkins:
I've looked through many posts. I am very new to creating my own Rom's, and I am having a problem after editing framework-res.apk. I started by downloading a popular rom for the Evo 3D, and decompiled it, edited framework-res, and after flashing the rom it wouldn't boot past the startup animation. The screen just remained black, but the capacitive buttons remained lit. Heres my process:

1.) Download the rom I desired.

2.) Extract zip

3.) Locate Framework-res.apk, copy, paste on desktop.

4.)Extract framework-res.apk, edited icons to my liking.

5.) Delete Meta-inf.

6.) Compress framework-res back to .zip, then to .apk.

7.)Sign Framework-res.apk.

8.) Replace framework-res.apk in my desired rom.

9.) Go into Meta-inf, delete Cert.RSA, Cert.SF, Manifest.MF (everything but the com folder)

10.) Re-sign .zip

11.) Flash via CWM, reboot, see Android startup animation, black screen?!!?!?

I am 99% I didn't change any dimensions of any of the images, and I re-signed everything perfectly. I know my mistake(s) are probably very noob, but as of now, I can't figure out what I am doing wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

(Before you say anything, I have searched the forums several times, with no luck. I also tried this process several times, only editing one.png in framework-res, and I still get the same result.)
[HTC EVO 3D] ellisperkins:
Also, I just tried only changing the default_wallpaper, and it did the same thing leading me to believe that it doesn't have something to do with me modifying it, but actually in me signing and repackaging it. If anyone could help/ give me instructions on how to do so, that would be great! :D
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
WOW!

you could always try the easy way... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=695701 :D

Select option 1 to decompress, then when done press option 3 to recompress.

Its what I use for framework. Sometimes I use this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=737526

All depends on what I need to do.
[HTC EVO 3D] ellisperkins:
Thanks a lot! I'm going to try my luck with that, and build a rom shortly. Another question, if I am lazy and I copy/ paste and replace the icons from one framework-res to another, and there are un-used icons, would that effect it?
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
No, it would just bloat your file.
[HTC EVO 3D] ellisperkins:
Thanks. Then what I was doing earlier had literally nothing to do with me modding any of the files, but had to do with the way I was either compressing/ or signing. I was using an old tool to sign from PPC geeks, so I kind of assumed that was the issue from the start.
[HTC EVO 3D] Scott:
Prolly so.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Bluegrassman:

What rom, any kernel changed, dropped the phone?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Bluegrassman:
Sorry, its totally stock other than a handle full of apps. No drops, and has been in an Otterbox Defender from day 1.
[HTC Inspire 4G] newter55:
Depending on what you are doing on the phone, and your location settings, it is normal for gps to start automatically. Ie doing a Google search when you have GPS enabled and have allowed Google to access your location as they say "to provide better search results"

Or it could be your wife logging into your htcsense account and using the locate phone feature to find you ;)
[HTC Inspire 4G] Bluegrassman:
LOL. Sitting here with the wife and watching GPS activating. Also, have location access disabled on Google.

This is really strange. I've had the phone a while now, and this is new behavior. It happens even after I have force closed all the apps that might happen to use GPS.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Bluegrassman:
For anyone interested by monitoring the GPS events while watching running apps, I was able to find the culprit. It was the AT&T Mark The Spot App causing GPS to keep activating. Even after doing an FC of the app, within minutes it would start itself again and then GPS would start firing up again. Uninstalled the AT&T app: problem solved. I had the app for a good while, and this was a fairly recent bug.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wendell7:
I use USB OTG watcher - there is a thread somewhere here about it but it is available from the market. It doesn't work for me if USB debug mode is on. (i.e. settings>applications>development>"USB debugging" unchecked.

USB OTG watcher lets you mount the external drive and you can then browse to it using a file manager such as ES File Explorer.

Hope this helps.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HuckFinn:
Thanks I will give it a try with USB debugging turned off. I am not sure if the USB OTG watcher will be able to help though since I am trying to connect a USB wireless dongle to my Xoom and not a flash drive. I know some people have been able to get USB tethering to work with their Android phones so I am hoping I can get it to work with my dongle.

Can someone confirm the correct script to run to enable USB tethering under this kernel? I am using Scripter (included in Manta Ray) and have entered the following...

dhcpcd usb1

When I run the script it gives me an error that interface USB1 could not be found or is invalid.

Thanks
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wendell7:
Huckfin,

Following my mistaken response to you yesterday I tried tethering my Xoom to my laptop today. I attached the USB cable, checked my xoom was connected, and then went into Xoom settings>wireless and networking and and activated USB tethering. It worked straight off and I was able to browse etc on my laptop through my Xoom without any issues. I also checked to ensure all other networking was either off (wifi) or disconnected (network cable.)

I am on a UK 3g MZ601 Xoom with Tiamat 2.1 Hammerhead.

I'm not sure it helps solve your problem except that tethering, in my case, does seem to work without any issues.

My laptop is running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit.

Regards,
