I do agree with you. It's fairly better than others.
[Android Themes] wilfredcool007:
Hey guys....

How many of you'll would like to learn how to edit the background of apps with ur favorite images instead of sick black color.....

and here is the solution....

first decompile framework-res.apk either with apktool or apk manager

den hav three different pictures (potrait and landscape)

now place a picture in the drawable two pictures of landscape orientation in drawable land and two pictures in drawable ldpi hdpi or wat ever ur mobile supports ;)

name then properly such as name the image in drawable folder as back_dark and in the rest land and ldpi folders name the images as back_dard,back_bright respectively

next comes the major part :| :P

go to "values"--> "drawables" and rename

name="screen_background_dark">#ff0000</drawable>
<drawable name="screen_background_light">#ff0011</drawable>
<drawable name="screen_background_dark_transparent">#ff0000</drawable>
<drawable name="screen_background_light_transparent">#ff0000</drawable>

(the color codes which i gave in the above is not the original code just for an example i wrote some code :P)

the above lines into

<drawable name="screen_background_dark">@drawable/back_dark</drawable>
<drawable name="screen_background_light">@drawable/back_bright</drawable>
<drawable name="screen_background_dark_transparent">@drawable/back_dark</drawable>
<drawable name="screen_background_light_transparent">@drawable/back_bright</drawable>

Save the file and compile the framework-res.apk

[Android Themes] manikant_009:
Then why it's not working in Andy's rom 7.2 framework-res.apk. If you want i can attach it here
[Android Themes] SpaceCaker:
On cm7.2 u need xml changes on ics cm9 not
[Android Themes] manikant_009:
Its not cm9 or cm7 its Andy'sX Rom and i think background_holo_dark.xml files in drawable-nodpi folder is responsible for that

Nice guide
[XPERIA X8 General] NebRityj:
The Sony Ericsson company made Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 phone with two type touchscreen digitizers. First type have Synaptics chip, and second have Cypress chip.​

Stock ROM have drivers only for single touch, but developers made dual touch for both touchscreen digitizers. Touchscreen digitizer with Synaptics chip have a fake dual touch, and with Cypress have a real dual touch.​

I changed touchscreen digitizer and created photo guide for you.

My Xperia X8 and new touchscreen with Cypress chip:

I'm bought it on ebay, but need ask a buyer about type the chip in touchscreen digitizer (Synaptics T1021A or CYC8CTMA)!
[XPERIA X8 General] AliensDroid:
Was that what will not damage the device?

and will run smoothly? :confused:
[XPERIA X8 General] dotsen9:
With cypress you have real dual touch
[XPERIA X8 General] hdavid1:
It's a stupid question, but the SE 1.6 firmware has drivers for the Cypress digitizer? Or just the Synaptics? :D

SE made the phone first with 1.6 and Synaptics, so I think there aren't drivers for Cypress.
[XPERIA X8 General] NebRityj:
The last screenshot made from my phone with new (cypress) touchscreen digitizer. It not damaged and work perfectly!
[XPERIA X8 General] NebRityj:

What's the difference between 'fake' and 'real' dual touch?
[XPERIA X8 General] maliceomalice:
It depends on ur screen's digitizer. If ur synaptic,u get fake dualtouch. If cypress,u get real...
[XPERIA X8 General] Bahurs1:
Is it possible to say put on just the digitizer such as this one or does it require some to much hard work? just can't an answer right now, so sorry if its a stupid question.
[XPERIA X8 General] Nikkopt:
Just change it and it will work..

However, keep in mind the the digitizer is very well fixed in the front cover.. You probably have to glue the new one. The best thing you can do is buy the digitizer already mounted on a new front cover.

Sent from my bathroom using the toilet
[XPERIA X8 General] Bahurs1:
Yeah that. The detaching and gluing it back sound pretty ugly in the end. Sorry I couldn't get my thought right its 3 AM here or 03:26
[XPERIA X8 General] Galon123:
so if i change my synaptic digitizer to cypress,i'll get real dual touch,like those who have cypress from the first time they bought?
[XPERIA X8 General] NebRityj:
Yes, thats right!
[XPERIA X8 General] aptnutella:
Nice tutorial but I want to know if link above in some comment is cypress digitizer because there is only mentioned that it is new touch screen digitizer. I mean this link.

Has anyone tried it ? If it is cypress and there is really free shipping I will try it.
[XPERIA X8 General] aptnutella:
because nobody answered my question I tried it with this. Ive been waiting for it 15 days and now I know it is synaptic :( . However I tried to replace it and this is my result - old digitizer has no problem but my phone doesnt recognized new digitizer so I can say goodbye to my 15 Euros :( . I have no idea why it doesnt recognized new digitizer but I noticed it is a little difference between old and new. I will post photos here tomorow
[XPERIA X8 General] pochopsp:
very sad story, your testimony dissuaded me from buying it... thank you mate
[XPERIA X8 General] aptnutella:
So here are photos :

1. new digitizer

2. old digitizer

3. new digitizer detail

4. old digitizer detail

My camera doesnt have macro so forgive me quality of this pics. As I said, the old one works without problem but new doesnt :( please help me
[XPERIA X8 General] :
In which case you should have cancelled the order as I'm sure you wanted to have a Cypress digitizer and not a "new" Synaptics one - or is there some post I missed?

Since the photos don't allow for magnification or are linked to a bigger image:

The layout of the flex cable (resistors and routing of printed lines) looks very different between old and new - is there even the same Synaptics chip on both?

If there's a another Synaptics chip on the new one (chip with a totally different model id) then, as a wild guess, chances are pretty good that it may not be picked up (read: the touchscreen driver not recognizing the chip or the digitizer firmware not compatible with the phone).

While it shouldn't make any difference: You're on Stock or on a custom ROM?
[XPERIA X8 General] aptnutella:
so 1. - I can send it back in 7 days but there is written - Buyer pays return shipping. And because shipping from Slovakia to Hong-Kong is expensive and risky I will try to sell it in Slovakia if it isnt compatible for my device.

By aptnutella at 2012-02-28

if it is still unreadable I can post new photos

2. - I noticed there are 5 printed lines in old and 6 in new but routing is same

3. I will take a look at chip

4. Im using custom ROM should I go back to stock?
[XPERIA X8 General] Ace96:
Help Me Please!

I am a little confused here. Could anyone tell me where exactly is the digitizer?

Is it attached to the cover or is it attached to the lcd?

[XPERIA X8 General] kreatonn:
this mean i have cypress right?
[XPERIA X8 General] fotak-x:
yes ;)
[XPERIA X8 General] kubo2182:
I had synaptics 2 years and dual touch works only on miniCM7 2.3.7 (nAa) and also it was fake dual touch ( working little bit in browser as zoom but in games was useless ) ... and now on CM10 (nAa kernel) dual touch not working on synaptics, only on cypress, I have tested it on games :D (sorry for my english)
[XPERIA X8 General] CtrlAltDelIrl:
Only cypress has real dual-touch.. Dual touch doesn't work at all on synaptics.

That's the whole point of this thread. To change to a digitizer that has this feature.

Fake dual-touch is only pinch to zoom.

[Nexus S Accessories] gnaurittiello:
After reading the recent post about white cover for Nexus S, I googled a bit. So I found there's a full-white version of Nexus S, with also the edge around display in white:

But reading this it seems that only i9020A has full-white version, neither i9020T nor i9023.

So, the question is.. there's no way to get my i9023 totally white? I didn't find any replacement for entirely cover (back,edge,internal), but only for back cover like this.

Actually, if full-white version is only for i9020A, I'll never find replacement for i9023, but.. maybe you could provide further information :D

I just remembered, I have a spare black nexus S 4G cover. I think I should spray grey as the basecoat then white over it. Afterwards get an engraving machine to engrave the white paint so it leaves behind grey google and samsung logo's

I would engrave a perfectly sized android on the back in green.
[Nexus S Accessories] 309041291a:
Yup that's the Nexus S I own :). It is REALLY nice to look at it. I do wish the front screen could be a little more white (like the iPhone 4s is ALL white). The black does compliment well but I wish I could have full white :P

My e4gt rebooting constantly on 4g. "Unknown user granted su permission" pops up before reboot.

how do i know whats causing this?

just installed calkulins 1.5a rom and installed some apps with titanium(which is probably the culprit)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
Run Superuser from the app drawer and clear all the permissions. Then when the offending app asks for permission a prompt will come on your screen and you can identify the offender.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] donp2700:
tried it...and no app shows up just the permission granted and then reboot. it seems to happen when i try using any app that uses the data service. the log in su has a permission granted but no description of offending app.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
Personally I wouldn't be comfortable if an app I had no idea about started requesting root permissions on every startup. You probably do want to track it down. Worst case you can reinstall the base ROM and then put your apps back one at a time until you see the culprit.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] phatmanxxl:
Lettuce know what the app is too, it needs to be reported.

[HTC Amaze 4G] jeepers007:
Observations:

I was skeptical at first because there are no QHD resolutions listed in UOT kitchen, but figured if I supplied the files, then it would maintain the resolutions in the files.

Must have all three files to upload for it to compile correctly...

1. SystemUI.apk

2. Framework-res.apk

3. com.htc.resources.apk

I've changed the battery indicatior, added statusbar icons successfully, and change the background to more transparent on the Notifications/Quick Setting pull-down. I've also successfully changed the lockscreen icons.

I'm having difficulties making the statusbar more transparent, however. They have a setting on the Status Bar tab, but it seems to have no effect.

I did try to manually adjust the transparency on status_bar_background.png in Framework-res.apk, but it didn't seem to do the trick. Is there another file that is used based on the Sense base?
[HTC Amaze 4G] TheSneakerWhore:
Nope. Those are the files needed, one bit of advice though--triple check the operational file it uses.

I.E. For boot animation, use the CM file directory, not the suggested data/local. It may be something in the framework.res file that needs to be changed. UOT works for EVERYTHING, provided you make sure the operational file is correct upon submission.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Ace42:
Hmmm Sense(or any ginger for the matter) responds to the status bar B/G used in SystemUI.apk(drawable HDPI). And the images used on all the qHD phones from HTC use the same size for .pngs as their WVGA counterparts(some things are bigger, but not many), scaling seems pretty good AFAIK.
[HTC Amaze 4G] jeepers007:
Found it! Giving that a try.

Thanks!
[HTC Amaze 4G] TheSneakerWhore:
Trust me, it works. I cannot remember off the top of my head (bit drunk) but UOT works on just about everything. You need to double check where each enabled visual/operational is WITHIN your choice of rom. Then, you can triple check UOT's placement of the modified file.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Spovik:
I'm trying to remove the clock, but I couldn't find where that was located anywhere in there. Anyone have any pointers?

I'm a kitchen noob so I just made a simple battery change that I'm going to put on when it's done cooking.

(BeastMOD 1.3.1)
[HTC Amaze 4G] TheSneakerWhore:
Let me look into it when I get home...I might be able (time willing) download your current rom and cook it--or at least find where to zap the clock so you can do it to your liking.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Spovik:
My battery cooking turned out to cause a boot loop so no-go on that. I appreciate any help you can offer and let me know if there's anything I can do to make things easier.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Alexia Whitehurst:
The clock is in the service.jar.. The kitchen won't work for that mod.
[HTC Amaze 4G] jeepers007:
okay, I think I'm starting to get more comfortable with this kitchen.

I've got transparent status bar, and modified status bar icons.

Now, I'm looking for some help with another graphic. I unlock my phone for use with a pin. I see lockscreen in UOT only seems to modify the icons and gesture styles.

Where can I look to change the color of the numeric pin keys?
[HTC Amaze 4G] TheSneakerWhore:
It is imperative that you open your rom .zip and extract:

com.htc.resources.apk

framework-res.apk

SystemUI.apk

All are found within your particular rom package. Upload via UOT's upload page. That is how their kitchen knows what to change and give you an individualized .zip to flash. If you want an in-depth explanation, PM me and I would be happy to go through the whole process step-by-step. Once you get the gist, it is easy as pie.

As for the clock, yea...it is under services.jar and UOT does not change that. There can be another way to delete it, if I have time today I will try to make a flashable .zip for just the clock delete--unless someone beats me to it.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Spovik:
Yeah, I went through the UOT guide and video tutorial before I started working with UOT (I really do RTFM) and it still crashed out on me. I'll give it another shot when I have time available and I can get in.

As for the flashable zip, I'd love you long-time. :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] TheSneakerWhore:
I'm not going to have the time to make a clock delete zip....work is busy and getting ready for the holiday. It's not too hard for someone familiar with the sdk to use smali/etc. To push the needed code.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Spovik:
I've seen some code about it, but didn't know if it's exclusive to the device type, or if it's the same basic thing for gingerbread so I never jumped. I'll see if I can mess with it later this week.
[HTC Amaze 4G] TheSneakerWhore:
As long as you pull the services.jar file out of the Rom you want to flash to, you are fine.
