Tutorial – How to change the default incoming call picture. Root required.

In this tutorial I will describe the steps in which to change the default incoming call picture (I.E. The green android that is shown when there is no picture assigned to the contact) as shown below:

The programs used in the tutorial:

•	WinRAR

•	Root Explorer

•	Adb

•	Microsoft Paint or your favorite photo editing program

By default, two images are used for the incoming call pic, one for receiving the call and another for when the call is answered. It’s your choice to use two different images or just use one. I used two different images in the tutorial.

Let’s get started:

*It is highly recommended that you perform a nand backup before attempting this!

1)	Find 2 images you would like to use. The image must be converted to create a 336 x 336 and a 300 x 300 PNG. Repeat for the other image. There will be a total of 4 PNG images, two 336 x 336 and two 300 x 300. Use Paint or another photo editing program to convert the images.

Images I picked:

2)	Choose which image you will like to be the incoming call picture. Rename each as the following:

For the 336 x 336 PNG: phone_default_incall

For the 300 x 300 PNG: phone_default_incall_300

For the call answered picture, rename as:

For the 336 x 336 PNG: phone_default

For the 300 x 300 PNG: phone_default_300

3)	On your phone, using Root Explorer, go to system/app scroll down to Phone.apk. Long press it and select copy, press the back key twice and paste it in sdcard. Attach your phone to your computer and transfer Phone.apk from the sdcard to your desktop.

4)	Right click Phone.apk and open the apk with WinRAR(you do not want to extract the apk).

With the apk opened in WinRAR:

Drag and drop the images phone_default and phone_default_incall to res/drawable-port-hdpi.

Drag and drop the images phone_default_300 and phone_default_incall_300 to res/drawable hdpi.

After you replace the images, close WinRAR

5)	Your phone should still be connected to your computer, change the usb connection type to charge only. On your phone open Root Explorer and go to system/app, towards the top of the screen is a Mount R/W button, press it.

6)	On the keyboard hit the window key + r, enter cmd and press ok. Right click on Phone.apk and copy the Location (should be C:\Users\name\Desktop) under the General tab. In the cmd window type: cd (paste location) and press enter. After that type: adb push Phone.apk /system/app and press enter. It should copy the file to your phone.

7)	Close and reopen Root Explorer and go to system/app, scroll down to Phone.apk and long press it, select Permissions. Make sure that for Owner: Read & Write are selected, for Group and Others: only Read is selected. Press ok. Change the directory back to Read Only by pressing the Mount R/O button on the top and exit.

8)	Test it out by calling your phone from a number that doesn’t have a contact picture assigned to it.

Here are my results:

Thank you and hopefully this will help you out. :)

Outgoing call image

You've stated that this method will change the default incoming call and in call image but I was wondering what happens to the outgoing call image? That also appears as the android logo by default so does that change or is another modification required for that?
[HTC Sensation] VenomGT:
It also changes the outgoing call pic.

Problem With Steps 4 & 6

When accessing the files via WinRAR res/drawable-port-hdpi. does not appear but red/drawable-port-car-hdpi. instead. Also regarding ADB, isit a software we're meant to download on the phone, PC etc? If you could just clarify these steps for me as the rest of the process seemed reasonably straightforward.
[HTC Sensation] aismail38:
thanx man really i like it
[HTC Sensation] VenomGT:
For your first question, which Rom are you using? As for ADB, it's software that you would download on your PC, more information on ADB can be found in this post.
[HTC Sensation] AbZ14:
I am using the default ROM which came with my desire s, just to clarify you cannot carry out this process without having ADB on your computer correct?
[HTC Sensation] AbZ14:
Error during step 6

I went through the post on ADB and followed the steps correctly. When trying to carry out type: adb push Phone.apk /system/app and press enter. It should copy the file to your phone. An error stating that 'adb is not a recognised internal or external command' comes up, solution?
[HTC Sensation] VenomGT:
Try this:

Go to Start and in the Search box type cmd, right click and Run as Administrator

Type:

setx path /m "%PATH%;C:\AndroidSDK"

and hit Enter. Close the cmd window

To check is it working properly open Command Prompt (Start -> Search -> type cmd -> Enter) and type adb

If everything is configured properly, this will list the Android Debug Bridge version and the available commands. If it's working, you should be able to copy the file to your phone.
[HTC Sensation] Noobel:
Actually it was even more simple in my case.

I'm running ViperS 1.6.3 on my HTC Sensation.

For steps 5) and 6) I've used X-plore to delete phone.apk in system folder and to copy a modified one.

After permissions where set I rebooted my phone and voila - no more Shrek on my phone! :D

Thanx a lot for this easy guide.
[HTC Sensation] sy224048:
So someone bumped this thread and I went through all the steps on ViperS 3.0.1 and yet the pictures stay the same. It's not the little green shrek robot but a silhouette of a human, which was the original. There are different file names but I assumed the rest of the steps were the same. If anyone else has some help for me here...

EDIT: NEVERMIND, it's the skin. I changed back to default skin and I got it working perfectly. Note that the names of the files are not the same for ViperS 3, and you only need the 336x336 one.
[HTC Sensation] rlamba:
Looks Nice. How do you do it in JB 4.2.2 (Albino Kang) ROM?
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
Just an alternative suggestion...I use an app called full screen caller I'd. It replaces the main call screen with a full screen photo of your choosing for each caller. It is not the solution this thread is looking for at ball, it it might be a good alternate solution for some people.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gridironbear:
Hello XDA community, I wanted to know if there is a spy application out there that will allow me to record for at least an hour. I ask because I suspect my girlfriend is cheating on me and worst of all I think she's doing it in my crib. I tried out both the stock camera and spy phone but neither seems to record more than 20 or 30 minutes. She starts work latter than me and I think she's had another man in my house.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] e-LUNATIC:
Lol... I think you need more than a app.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mentalityx:
Dam bro. You need to go to your nearest spy shop. Heck buy a digital voice recorder at Super Wally World aka WalMart and leave it recording when you leave. That can record for a couple or more hours. Good luck pal.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bazzle01:
Or just go home early if you can?

Isnt there an app for this purpose? I something on current affair where they spy on you thru your own phone.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] upichie:
This is probably what I would do. It's small, it's descrete, and it will record while hidden, unlike a camera. Best of luck!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rootstonian:
Wow, that sucks! Have you tried the old fashioned method of talking to her?

And if I recall, some of those digital recorders will sit in "standby mode" and only start recording when it detects sound; you can test is with some moaning (sorry, just had to do it).

Best of luck to you...and, don't do anything stupid; no woman is worth jail time :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leijonasisu:
Dunno if you still need help but just stick a camera on record for a ton of hours and hide it in something. A mate of mine cut a little hole in a Mc Donalds drink and popped his camera in there. Caught his wife messing around.

Something real discrete. That or you could just talk to her..

I hope you get it all sorted out soon though. A regular camera set on record for a long time would work fine. Just make sure to use fresh batteries.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrmystery96:
Perhaps your phone isn't what you should be using to fix your issue. It'd probably be better for you to talk it out with her, quietly.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gridironbear:
Thanks for all the suggestions. Much appreciated

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alucard_maac:
You can use "securet livestream" to see your camera from another place. you can put it even in hidden mode. Or if you have a laptop or a PC with a webcam you can use "vitamin D" its a program that records when a specific point in the screen moves like a dog moving, someone crossing the door or things like that.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pede69:
Hi...

Would someone please let me know what options are available for my G Tab as far as upgrading to the latest OS?

Following are the details of my tab as it is now.

One of the first G Tabs.

Model Number: VEGan-TAB-v1.0b5.1.1 (done this the day I purchased it)

Android Version: 2.2

Kernel Version: 2.6.32.9-dirty <> nick@ubuntu-VM #6

Build Number: harmony 2.2 FRF91 20101123.172729

Software & directions please.

Thank you,

John & Pauline
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mstevens:
Is there a reason you can't read the G Tablet Android Development forum?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pede69:
Yes there is...

I have Adult ADD and my comprehension and retention is very poor. I am afraid that If I rely on my interpretation, I may get it wrong.

I feel that a direct response to my questions would be more accurate for me and that I would have less of a chance of making a mistake.

Thanks,

John
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mstevens:
There's no such thing as "Adult ADD". The name of the disorder is abbreviated ADHD, and there's no distinction between childhood and adult forms apart from the age of the patient. I have ADHD, too, and that didn't keep me from getting an advanced degree (I went to medical school, did a psychiatry residency and fellowship, and ended up specializing in treating adults with ADHD) or figuring out my tablet.

You really shouldn't rely on other people to make your choices for you whether you have ADHD or not.

In this case, the number of options is very large. Each of them is different and better-suited for different situations. We know absolutely nothing about how you use your tablet, so are not in a position to select a ROM. If we did have that information, nobody would still be able to make the perfect recommendation for you since everyone has different opinions about the best solution for a given problem.

This would be like asking "what's the best car" without specifying your needs or budget and also asking which color and options you should pick. You just have to do the work yourself.

Most of us pick a firmware after having installed and tried a number of alternatives. Some people literally install a new one daily.

A good place to start in your deliberations is to ask yourself what your current firmware isn't doing for you that you think a different firmware would do. Do you really need to change, or do you just want something newer for its own sake?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brettdwagner:
There is no such beast as the "Latest OS." There are roms based on newer and older versions of android. Each have their own pros and cons. Read up on each Rom, decide based on your individual needs, and flash it (following one of the dozens of available tutorials, or the developer's instructions).
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mstevens:
Sure there is, depending on how you define it.

There's the latest official firmware from nVidia, which is relatively recent.

There's also the most recent official release of Android, which isn't even available for the g-Tablet.

Overall, though, I agree with what I think is your real point: the OP is asking a question to which he's never going to get a satisfactory answer because there are too many different interpretations of what "latest OS" might mean.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quietcblongs:

[General Questions and Answers] VoLtrex31:
Hey i am newbie in the forum and this is the first place i have thought of asking about crazy moding .

I have changed the DEFY to Nightly CM7 2.3.7 and it is fast - Galaxy S is dead slow compare to my phone -

The only thing that dont like about it - its display - it is a normal TFT display comparing to the AMOLED of SAMSUNG.

So in the new era of globalization of smart phones - all of them are using basically the same connectors, only different type of hard ware .

What i ma basically meaning . that if i will find the same 3.7" AMOLED display of another company i will be able to mount in to my DEFY.

What do you think about my idea?

Please be a little bit more polite since its quite crazy and i know it :p .

But asking does not cost money.

answer is probably is not since i think AMOLED display is using a different connector in general more faster data connector.

Yes I know we have the little robot but I was thinking we could go with an os tan for andriod

Some might not be aware of what these are so in its most simplistic definition. An os tan is a fictional booth babe for an os.

Windows, Mac, even linux distros all tend to have what's known as a tan or a girl which normally comes in something usable for some fan art if you maybe have a computer fetish (im not going to judge if transistors are your thing)

Anyway my proposal is simple. Make an os tan and submit it in this thread or just post your idea for what features you think she (or he) should have.

Pile them all up and I will collect all the work safe ones for a popularity tournament to see which one will be the peoples choice.

Hi,

First thanks to Kounadisk and all the users who contributed in the Navigon 3.0.

I installed the Navigon 3.0 the last version avaliable in my LG optimus 7 with Nodo unlocked by registry. At first everything worked perfectly but a few days later it doesnt, It says all the time that there is not GPS signal avaliable but there is because with the bing maps it detects my position instantly. I read about sometime losing the signal but in my case it doesnt seem to get it at all.

Please help. Thanks.

Have you disabled "use Navigon Live services" in settings? that should do the trick it's normally set to ON by default!
[Windows Phone 7 General] lseidman:
You can actually use GeoLocation without using your GPS and doesn't need a sensor, you can invoke a Webbrowser instance or WebClient and use a script to detect the output and parse (assuming it outputs to XML) your IP and place it on a map.

Did you make this App?

[Windows Phone 7 General] kevyn82:
for me it takes about 10 minutes to find a valid GPS signal,

then as soon as I move the phone I loose it
[Windows Phone 7 General] mrjetking:
On my LG Optimus 7 I found that I was often unable to get a satellite lock. What worked for me was to turn off location services, turn off the phone, turn it on again and then turn on location services again. Locks in a few seconds now.

You just need to remember to turn off location services if you're turning the phone off.

Hopefully we won't have to wait too long for a patch to address this...

Any one knows if I can change the gsm and 3g band on a cyanogenmod 7? Or is there any other custom ROM for LG gt540 that would allow me to do this?
[GT540 Optimus General] suzukah:
OK, answering my oun question for future users, at least cyanogenmod custome rom 6.1 and all the ones after that, are customized to the bands needed on each country and carrier. As far as I understood. However I'm not 100% sure about if the previous versions of CM include this.
[GT540 Optimus General] effortless.:
You cannot change the bands your phone uses, it will require either a Radio firmware alteration or different radio.

How do you use the jig to reset the counter? Turn off and then plug it in? Does that automaticallyreset it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] foxbat121:
They are typically used for flash ROMs (boot your phone directly into download mode) regardless what your phone state is (bricked or note). If you never flash ROMs, you don't need this.

You can also flash ROMs without this jig. But on GS2, there is a flash counter and warning icon if you flashed anything but stock ROMs. This jig let you reset that counter as well.

It comes handy if you flash ROM often.
