That's interesting. I don't have any time without signal on CM7, nightly 37

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Accord281:
You are thinking of time without signal. I do not believe he is referring to that.

But 49% doesn't really mean anything. It just means your phone hasn't been used much and therefore nothing else is using much battery. If your battery only goes down 5% overnight, then standby has only actually used 2.5% of your phone's battery, which is completely normal. If you tap on standby, and your time without signal is high, then you have an issue, but with this phone I highly doubt it will be.

I am wanting to change the sub-menu colour using the instructions found here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=9664604#post9664604

In /res/color/zzz_tw_secondary_text_sub.xml change the colors in the following two lines to ffffffff:

Code:

<item android:state_window_focused="false" android:color="#ffffffff" />

<item android:color="#ffffffff" />

I compile the framework-res.apk and push it to the framework. In settings the colour change is visible ie- selecting Display works and so does About phone.

Location and Security, Accounts and sync, Locale and Text causes FC

I have tried signing, copying original arsc file etc but no luck

I have compiled the framework-res with a new rom also no luck

My guess is that there is a supporting file somewhere that also require to be changed. Your help is appreciated
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] DeGygii:
I think you just made a "f" too much.

It should be ffffff
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] kb909:
SOLVED

I sucessfully compiled using eclipse

I then tried a different version of apktool which worked

Syntax is ff followed by 6 hex caracter colour code in the example it is ff ffffff for white
[LG Optimus Black] rgabi88:
What do I want from a "PERFECT" custom ROM for Optimus Black??

WISHLIST:

- root + busybox

- clockworkmod recovery (with ext4 SUPPORT, fixed progressbar ;-) )

- adb in recovery..

- Entering recovery by phone app, keypress and failsafe file on sd card

- Gingerbread or Honeycomb icons in statusbar. Don't care about toggles, other colors, etc.

- Optimised kernel + minmax governor and 10% overclock + decent undervolt

- tweaked build.prop

- fixed improved sqlite (see gps issue) as option

- stock sounds + option to add my own ringtones, notifications, etc

- ALL stock applications with option to remove some of them (search sgschlorine or BloatwareBuster on XDA) (se the problems of appinj in Nova)

- Installation of user applications by CWM update.zip script or something like this... (somewhere on XDA is an Update-Zip-Packager script that packages stuff in a update.zip CWM-flashable file)

- Recovery and Reboot options in power menu

- Permanent increased sd card read_ahead cache from 128 to 1024, 2048 or 4096 (see /sys/devices/virtual/bdi/179:0/read_ahead_kb)

- .....

Most of those are included in Noejn's Nova...

The list remains open!

Most of the tweaks must be by default in the ROM.

Others I'd like to be CWM-flashable (statusbar icons, kernel, build.prop, sqlite, user sounds, crapwarebuster, user apps)

or...

- STRIPPED down to the bones "stock" ROM

- al the other options and apps (stock and/or user) packed in individual or small packs CWM-flashable files.

I think than making a highly "modular" ROM will help users to fine-tune their phones as much as they want to...

Most of the wishes in the list are BASED ON AND INSPIRED BY NOEJN's NOVA! Thank you and all the contributors for your work!

OTHER IDEAS TO ADD?
[LG Optimus Black] antonio1475:
Nice. Do you already have the bold marked things?

Idea: Power Menu with Reboot and Recovery (I hope you understand what I mean, when you long-press power button to turn off and other options).

Which base are you using (10C, 10E...)? I say for compatibility with my themes (Which you can use too).

Thanks and kindly waiting for your ROM!

:)
[LG Optimus Black] rgabi88:
- Sorry for the confusion. I said I wish a ROM with those features and I invited users to contribute ideas. It is a whishlist.

- Power menu (long-press power button) with reboot and recovery is already in the list.

- I am on V10E Europe Open. Thanks for permission to use your theme(s)

I hope that you and the other developers and users to help.

So, for now, let's put together ideas!

off topic:

I posted to you V10E Europe Open framework-res and lg-res .apk in your Gingerbread theme thread as you asked. I'd like ONLY the Gingerbread (or Honeycomb) icons for the statusbar if you can help. Thank you.
[LG Optimus Black] antonio1475:
Oh sorry. Since it was a question I understood you were looking what you had to put in the ROM. Yeah I knew I had read power menu in the list, but when quoting didn't find it so I wrote it.

You posted the files? Sorry I didn't see it :S . Will do when I get back home in Wednesday. Black statusbar too or just icons? Not popus or buttons and all that? OK

:)

[LG Optimus Black] rgabi88:
I mean battery, wifi, 3g..etc icons that appear on status bar.

Just like the old gingerbread icons and shiny statusbar that you made some time ago.. The default V10E black background is OK for me.

Gingerbread icons or Honeycomb ones..... Or maybe two frameworks One with Ginger and another with Honey...:D.

Because... what is better than a framework-res? TWO OF THEM!!!:)

And... can you teach me how to decompile, modify and recompile apk's? The decompile and modify parts are ok for me..but compiling.

Can I just open with winrar, modify and then flash the result?

Thanks!

Sorry for the offtopic
[LG Optimus Black] antonio1475:
Gingerbread for sure. Honeycomb... I don't know...

For png you can just drag and drop with 7zip or winrar. For .9.png, you need to compile them. I use x9 compiler for .9.png, then drag and drop with 7zip and flash ;)

Only recompile when touching xml's

It should work, but I´m not sure....but that also means that either you have to get the whole zip (I´d recommend you that) or somebody extracts the whole thing and gives you the /system/lib folder.

But better download the whole thing.

[Networking] abraXxl:
Hi,

this is my first post. Thanks for the many helpful posts in this forum. Now I am having a problem where did not find a solution via forum search.

I have here an Android mobile (G1, okay rather old, but it should also be a generic question so post this here) that should use internet connection established by laptop via adb.

I am using Ubuntu 10.04 on the laptop and CM6.1 with +14M hack on the phone.

I use the following script, which works well for all command that are started from the shell,

but all Android apps like GMail, K9, Google Music, Browser etc. tell me that there is not a valid internet connection. The browser oddly complains about this, too, but is able to load the page after confirming the error message.

#!/bin/sh
PORT=12000
REMOTEIP=10.61.61.2
LOCALIP=10.61.61.1
DNS_DEF=8.8.8.8

adb shell "killall -HUP pppd 2> /dev/null"
adb shell "killall nc 2> /dev/null"

#pf start
while iptables -D FORWARD -j android_ppp_tether 2> /dev/null; do :; done
while iptables -D INPUT -j android_ppp_tether 2> /dev/null; do :; done
while iptables -t nat -D POSTROUTING -s $REMOTEIP -j MASQUERADE 2> /dev/null; do :; done

killall pppd 2> /dev/null
adb shell "killall pppd 2> /dev/null"
adb shell "killall nc 2> /dev/null"

echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
adb forward tcp:$PORT tcp:$PORT
adb shell "pppd noauth defaultroute pty 'nc -l -p $PORT' ipparam vpn" &
sleep 5
pppd noauth nodeflate pty "nc localhost $PORT" $LOCALIP:$REMOTEIP
while ! ifconfig | grep $LOCALIP; do sleep 1; done

dns="$(awk '/nameserver/ {print $2; exit}' /etc/resolv.conf)"
[ -z "$dns" ] && dns=$DNS_DEF
adb shell "setprop net.dns1 $dns"

As you can see, the phone gets the defaultroute by using the defaultroute option at the pppd commandline at the phone's side.

The DNS server is pushed via setprop net.dns1 $dns.

Is there a command or a message to issue via adb forcing the phone "to be online"?

:wq
[Networking] genieass:
Have not tried this yet, but, is this "reverse tethering"??

The Laptop / PC has a net connection, and functions as a router for the phone?

Why do you need adb for this?

Basically the concepts seem to be to get the phone connect to the PC (tethering - can be wired or wi-fi or bluetooth). You set up the pc to talk to the phone (set up network configuration in the PC). Set up iptables and bridge in the PC to route traffic from / to the phone directly to the phone.

And finally, set up the phone's <whatever> to use the tether to beg with the PC to give it (the phone) net access.

Not that I have been able to get it working though.

The otherway around - simple tethering - getting the PC / laptop to use the phone's GPRS / 3G connection is pretty easy.

[Xoom General] armychris28210:
I was coming to post this as well.. Friggin sweet... The true Google device..
[Xoom General] rschenck:
Wow. This one is being reported all across the interwebs at the moment.

First of all if I were HTC and Samsung I would be LIVID right now. Both companies have stacked a lot of chips on Android and may now be seeing that as not as sure a bet as they thought. It would make sense for Google to now keep its flagship devices "in house" and have them made by Moto Mobile. This is going to freeze both companies out of the plum position of producing the concept devices for each new version of Android.

What does this foretell for the future? First of all I would not be surprised to see both HTC and Samsung trying to repair connections with Microsoft, and looking again at making a larger commitment to Windows Phone 7.

For we Xoom users, it heavily improves the odds of us seeing an official ICS release by the end of the year. That was already likely since the Xoom was being used to demo the software, but now will be even more so.

Interesting days ahead.
[Xoom General] dubsjw27:
It gives me a little more confidence that the xoom won't be left behind as quickly as we all thought it would be.
[Xoom General] linuxdood:
Great move for all Android partners

If anything, this protects HTC and Samsung's Android business from patents claims against them. Google will use it's new patent muscle as a deterrent. Google stated Motorola will be a licensee just like the others. I'm sure all new GED's will be Moto but I doubt the influence will extend much beyond that.
[Xoom General] gogol:
Well, I want this:

Motorola has a lot of patents on mobile / smartphone technology.

So, I want Google to use those patents to protect Android!

I don't know how ... but I dreamed this to shut up that Apple patent troll.

Probably, Google intention was mainly for Motorola patents.
[Xoom General] rschenck:
I agree that this is a good move in the long-term for Android as a platform...but I think you underestimate the influence that being the sole source of GEDs will give Moto. They will be the glass of fashion.

Google will continue to provide the software to all it's partners, sure...but I think we are coming up very swiftly on a new synthesis of hardware and software...basically the Apple model accepted as the norm. Apple vs Google/Moto vs Microsoft/Nokia.

My question now is...who buys RIM. My guess is Microsoft.

[Xoom General] armychris28210:

[Xoom General] gogol:
I expect this kind of news in the future:

GOOGLE is suing Apple for some (Motorola) patents infringement.

Then in negotiation:

Apple: So, what's now? How do we settle?

Google: Easy, drop all your lousy law suits on Android manufacturers

That would be epic!
[Xoom General] Theme Ishere:
:)

Yes! And then they will concentrate on one phone, to make it perfect with all their new know how. To enhance the security they get rid of the open source ****, and make it perfectly usable and easy by integrating it to Google Music as the only way to put music on the device. It will be called the GPhone and it will...ohhh...wait...
[Xoom General] rschenck:
Well it certainly is, at least partially. Patents are the big deal these days.

However, as for the parts of the deal that are about getting an in house hardware maker being downplayed...what else are the brass of HTC, Sony Ericsson and LG going to say?

It reminds me of the losers on The Bachelor "He totally like made the right choice...I really think this is for the best and hope they will be very happy...."

We will see how they really feel if the announcements of additional WM7 phones start picking up speed.
[Xoom General] e.mote:
>First of all if I were HTC and Samsung I would be LIVID right now.

Co-opetition is the nature of business (and a lot of other areas). Things are always more complicated than the black-or-white, friend-or-foe picture people try to paint. MS is in with Nokia, but other co's are still making WP7 phones. It all depends on what makes sense (read: profit).

That the deal happens is not because of Moto Mobo's hardware capability, but for its patent portfolio.

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424053111903392904576509953821437960.html

>It would make sense for Google to now keep its flagship devices "in house" and have them made by Moto Mobile.

No, it doesn't. That would go against everything that it has built Android to be, which is an "open", device- (and vendor-) agnostic OS. If it wants to destroy Android, that would be the surest way to go about it.

>For we Xoom users, it heavily improves the odds of us seeing an official ICS release by the end of the year.

I don't see it changes the picture any wrt the Xoom. As a GED device (for US model), the odds were always in favor of Xoom getting official ICS--and for most Teg2 tabs from major vendors, for that matter.

The acquisition will take place over some months, long after the Xoom has come and gone. I don't see Moto getting any "nicer" with supporting the Xoom just because it will be part of Goog. The Xoom is just one of many Moto products, and its replacements are already in the pipe.
[Xoom General] rschenck:
That is not completely accurate. Google has always selected one vendor for each version to develop the flagship GED device. The vendors have competed heavily to get those contracts since they involved a lot of interaction with the software design team and a leg up on smooth integration.

Now, it will make sense for Moto to have those prototype devices, as it means that Google will be able to control the process even further.

Android is vendor-agnostic, but each version has always had one vendor who was first amongst equals...and that will now be Moto.
[Xoom General] docfreed:
Unlocked, not unlockable!
[Xoom General] e.mote:
>Now, it will make sense for Moto to have those prototype devices, as it means that Google will be able to control the process even further.

I don't see this as a big deal. Having the Xoom released first didn't help Moto any wrt to sales, nor was having a GED a benefit to the user experience. Xoom users do get updates a bit faster, but other devices have value-added functionality (eg SD card, Splashtop, etc) that the Xoom lacks, OOB.

As far as "controlling the experience," that remains to be seen. It's hard to say with this 1st-gen as a gauge, as HC has been an ongoing beta for ICS. We'll have to see what Goog will do with its newly acquired hardware arm. I think it should be emphasized that the acquisition is more to shore up its patent stash than to "control the Android experience." Goog's failed 6.5B attempt to acquire Nortel's patents is indicative of its need in this area.
[Xoom General] BlackDino:
Don't be silly, android is an open source project device manufacturers will still be able to put their customizations out and will still be shipping phones with old versions of android. This deal will have no impact on android device manufacturers other then patent protection
[Xoom General] double1:
So instead of saying we have a motorola xoom now we just say we have a google xoom?
[Xoom General] rschenck:
Will other vendors get versions of Android? absolutely...Still adding their own customizations? sadly yes...however if you really think that Moto will not have an advantage now over other vendors due to having greater integration and involvement with new versions of Android, getting them sooner and having more input in design choices, then you are the one being silly.

Yes this deal is about patents, but it is also about being able to produce their own hardware prototypes, under their complete control.

In short, this deal is all about competing with Apple.
[Xoom General] rschenck:
No, Google has said Moto will remain an independent division.

So it will likely by the "Motorola Xoom 2, by Google".
[Xoom General] lpasq:
Hooray for the USA

...zoom posted...
[Xoom General] csseale:
Larry page said it will continue to be run as a seperate company.

With that said...Google also has share holders and must improve Motorola mobilities stocks now. So they have to do what's in the best interest of those holders. As much as we would like to believe what they say by only being to strenghten android and their patents I am afraid there will be no choice but to drive extreme inovavtion in moto mob thus cutting other competitors short. They will eventually have little choice honestly.

Point is don't believe all the PR that Google is spreading at the moment.
[Xoom General] p-slim:
Well with all the news, I feel alot more confident buying another xoom when it's released, hopefully they don't drop the nexus and xoom 2 in the same month or nobody's getting Christmas gifts
[Xoom General] rschenck:
Absolutely agree...too much press has been made lately that Microsoft makes more money off Android than Google do.

Some day soon the Google shareholders will say "We have the most popular operating system in the world which we are making no money on. Apple makes silly amounts of money by selling fewer phones due to making their own hardware. We have a hardware company now....show us the money."
[Xoom General] p-slim:
I'm sorry I have to disagree. 1st and foremost the apple iPhone is the number one selling phone in the world and no single phone will EVER sell as good as the iPhone. 2nd android is the largest operating system but cmon there are reasons why that must be addressed. IE: at the same time a powerhouse phone is released, 2 cheap non powerhouse androids are also released which has a positive effect and a negative effect. The nexus was $50 last week, the iPhone is still going 299 strong. The good news is it boost androids presence. The bad news is it creates fragmentation as the phones aren't really up to par. You know the android market gets nowhere near the traffic as the app store, that's where apple makes all their money. You guys are writing how Google should improve business but I think they're doing fine. If Google starts making as much money on android that means they will start doing things us long time android users dislike.

[Xoom General] BlackDino:
Google purchased motorola for nothing more then their patent portfolio, its sad because I absolutely love motorola.

It is in Google's best interest to keep motorola an independent company with no exclusive deals
[Xoom General] csseale:
Ummm saying something will never happen is kind of ignorant. The iPhone will def. be beaten. Android will soon eliminate fragmentation thus making it easier to develop on. Android is alot newer than ios so if course there is a stronger market but that without a question dissolving...and fast. Again a company must always answer to shareholders. Owning a hardware company now officially puts Google in an awkward position. And they will have zero choice but to put moto first on everything. This will in the end upset the competing partners. And yes moto is in serious competition with Samsung...HTC...Nokia...etc etc.

The shareholders will only allow helping the competition for so long.
[Xoom General] rschenck:
Again...what else is he going to say at this point?
[Xoom General] csseale:
This works for the time being...but like I said the shareholders will not and cannot allow this as it is not in their best interest. You cannot trust the prepared PR that they are saying just to keep the waters calm..for now
[Xoom General] p-slim:
I will see if I can find the article but htc and samsung are behind the acquisition, shouldn't they have the same fears?
