For porting any existing theme for g3 to 9LockScreen Mod, you need to have the following things --> :)

1. WinRar

2. Any existing theme with 9ls !

3. Theme which you want to port with 9ls mod !

4. A liitle brain shall do the work !!

Steps --> :D;):cool:

1. First of all, this needs to be done in a separate folder as files get mixed up, so make a new folder.

2. Now put the two themes (one with 9ls and the other to be ported) in the folder.

3. Now extract both the update.zips to separate folders.

4. now open both the folders side by side. Like this -->

5. open system in both the folders.

6. Now if there is media folder in the theme you want to port, copy it to the existing 9ls theme folder and replace it.

7. Now open the framework in both the folder.

8. Now open the framework-res.apk with WinRar (Right click the apk --> open with --> winRar) in both the folders

9. Now place the winRar window of the theme which needs to be ported on the RIGHT side and the theme which already has 9ls on the LEFT side. Like this -->

10. Open the res folder in both the apks

11. then open the drawable-ldpi in both. Like This -->

12. Now select all the files on the RIGHT side and drag them to the LEFT side.

13. A screen like this will appear on the Right side -->

14. Then a screen like this will appear on the LEFT side --> Press OK

15. Once done, go back once in each apk and open drawable-mdpi folder in both apks and drag and drop all the files as done above (IDK Whether this step is needed or not but I do it !!! :p:p:p )

16. When done, close both the winRar windows and now open the twframework-res.apk in both windows. Similarly place the winRar window of the theme which needs to be ported on the RIGHT side and the theme which already has 9ls on the LEFT side.

17. Open the res folder and then drawable-ldpi in both the windows. Now like step 12-14, drag and drop the files from RIGHT to LEFT !

18. Now do the same for the drawable-mdpi folder.

19. Once done, close both the winRar windows and now go back to sytem in both the folders. And open "app" folder in both the folders.

20. Now open Settings.apk of both the folders and repeat the steps 9 to 15.

21. Once done, close both the winRar windows.

22. Now the folder in which you had the theme which ALREADY had 9ls Mod, has YOUR THEME with 9ls Mod.

23. Now keep this window open and close the windows on the RIGHT side. Like This -->

24. Open the update.zip of any theme (Preferably the theme which already had the 9ls Mod) in winRar, and place it to your right Like this -->

25. Now open system in the update .zip on RIGHT side.

26. Now drag and drop the media folder (if any) from LEFT to RIGHT !

27. Now open Framework folder both sides and delete all the files from right side and drag and drop from the LEFT side to the RIGHT side. Like This -->

28. then open the app folder on both the sides and delete the contents from Right side and drag and drop from LEFT to RIGHT !!

29. TA DA !!!! Now you are done with the porting. Flash the update.zip via Recovery and enjoy !!! :D:cool::D:cool:

HOPE IT HELPS !! SORRY FOR THE LENGTH... WOULD TRY TO MAKE IT SHORT !!!

[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] nishant_713:
If there is already a theme for galaxy mini with 9ls, then using that you can port other themes with 9ls.... otherwise you will need to do some xml and other porting that i don't know how to do...
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] OJ:
Oh...So....i think it will never be ported to Galaxy Mini...

I really want it...Plzz can u port or make someone port who ported it to Galaxy 3...?

Or just tell me who ported this theme to Galaxy 3??
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] nishant_713:
well i think it was akash.gpta who ported it to g3 (I guess) ....

where to find the sources to make 9 lockscreenmod work ?
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] dhirend_6d:
9 Lockscreenmod for Froyo.

9 Lockscreenmod for Gingerbread.

These are the sources but the const values are with respect to SGS. You will have to port it to your device.

Edit : - This should also be useful. Its Akash Gupta s port of 9 Lockscreenmod for our Galaxy 3.
[Sony Tablet S] badasschris:
Hi I just bought a tablet s and when I set the brightness down and then open some apps (e.g. reader) the brightness goes up to 100% also if I turn it off for a little while (standby not off off) when i wake it up its at full brightness again.

I can take it back within 7 days so I would really appreciate it if anyone knows how to stop it doing this or ill have to take it back.

Thanks
[Sony Tablet S] HYPER-X10:
For some stupid reason the reader app has a separate brightness setting. When you're in the app, touch near the bottom of the page and then touch the briefcase icon. Brightness will pop up on the left.
[Sony Tablet S] asayanna:
Agree. Have the same experience with Reader. No issues with the other preinstalled apps.

Do not think the reported issue would be hardware. Sounds like a misbehaving app.

Do Tamworth in though... just in case :-)

How to mod Android 4.0.3 to close apps via long-press the back button?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redplate:
Buuuuuuuuump
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] developersdevelopers:
You could try out this tweak: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1425612 (credit to super_paws)

It's posted in the Nexus S forum, but the creator states its for stock 4.0.3 OTA, with no mention on which devices it works on. So I suggest making a Nandroid backup before testing this out.

Note that it's not a ROM or a kernel, just a flashable zip that adds a few features, including the force close feature that you're looking for.

Once you flash it, you must go to Settings -> Developer Options, and enable "Stop app via long-press".

Hope that works out for you.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redplate:
Thanks to you ma friend :D

Will test this out and give feedback ASAP

edit:

sadly it ends up in a bootloop. i will try to contact the developer and ask him.

Edit: This file is for Nexus S Stock ICS only.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redplate:
Is anybody able to tell me which file i have to modify for closing apps via long-press the backbutton?

Or where i should start searching. i have absolutly no clue.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dirk:
Whats wrong with the default Long-Press Home method?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redplate:
I have noticed that this feature comes with the latest ICS CM9 build v1.1 from tytung.

Anyway, thanks for the hint!

Wiping stats through the BatteryCalibration app or CWM does nothing to battery life or how it's reported. I'm a bit shocked since I thought that my first calibration nearly doubled my battery life. Oh well.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cordell12:
I find this hard to believe. Upon flash my first custom rom on this device and my evo 3d my battery stats would drop by half or so when I would reboot. Then the battery stats would either slowly climb back up to gain some of the loss back, or stay at that percentage for a looooong time. Charging to full and wiping these stats put a end to this on both devices, explain that!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] aimbdd:
No, battery calibration is not useless, just deleting that file is.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jerdog:
And this is straight from an Android developer - she knows her stuff. You're talking a placebo effect most likely. Go to her post and ask her.

Never calibrated on my ex vibrant, nor this phone. Battery has always been great regardless.

Sent from my SPH-D710
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chris41g:
the batteries in modern phones do not require calibration.. the OS does.. deleting batterystats.bin is not how thats done, but its deleted only to clean the slate and figure out where battery draws are...

after a flash charging to full may be enough, sometimes it takes a few cycles... but deleting the stats file is only for diagnostics
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jerdog:
though as she states:

So the stats are wiped after a relatively full charge (whatever that means) meaning they start over. Deleting them isn't going to do a thing. Just charge the device - unplug it and see over the life of that charge what the draw is.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bbedward:
I could a told you that :-P some types of batteries benefit from manual calibrations on first use, idk if li-ions do
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dchibro:
I'm glad to have one more Android myth busted. There's enough to do when flashing a new ROM as it is.

send to kindle - passage through amazon servers

Apologies if this seems off off topic but I believe it may tied to your explanation of the security at Amazon --

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=21366426#post21366426

As proof of concept Ive been messing around with the SendtoKindle.exe from the desktop explorer -- and have failed to get anything worthwhile past the amazon servers.... to see if I can use the Send to Kindle to get say, a rom file or binary kernel or apk or something of that sort -- and have not been able to get anything past.

The fact that everything is failing is only making me want to keep trying different things -- which Ill just keep on trying.. so i will try different things -

Ive sent 40 different documents of all kinds to see what goes through and what doesnt... and the only things that are going through are basically legitimate items.

If this is entirely irrelevant to your quest, then my apologies -- but regardless I shall enjoy observing how you shall achieve your success Paul!

After more than 1 year Windows phone is still at the bottom of the ladder with only 1% of the marketshare. If this continue the way they are Windows Phone might be completed dead. Microsoft is kind of late to the game, will Windows 8 and Apollo change the current situation or WP be complete dead a year or two from now and be killed off just like WebOS?

I love the new zen responses to a thread that could get out of hand. Who knows how long something will last. Does anything last forever?

Windows Phone 7 actually doubled in marketshare! 1% in 2010 to 2% end of 2011. That is some massive growth I tell ya. :D
[Windows Phone 7 General] Marvin_S:
Actually its only just that people start to know about WP7 in holland. The shops here have only mockups mostly, but oddly enough the lumia devices and the htc radar were all functional devices in the stores. So that's really good.

There is just not enough trust yet, lots of doubts because its still considered new. But its gaining awareness and lumias are selling well, so this will be just a matter of time. I mean its in general a phone for 2 years you buy so people a really careful with buying something "new".

Just give it another year, I am seeing ads for the lumia everywhere now so that's a good sign. People love the design and like how the OS looks, they just don't know what I can do yet until a friend/colleague shows/tells them.
[Windows Phone 7 General] XxAndrexX:
I only know 2 people having a WP7. My girlfriend (because I told her to buy it) and a friend of mine (the one who told me to buy WM6.1 a few years ago).

I think, meanwhile mi girlfriend or better ex-girlfriend, has an Android phone... she was very upset with me about that. she spend a lot of money for that WP7.

and now guess why she left me...

ok, not because of the phone, but its one of the reasons hahaah.

Here in Spain I think its less tan 1% the WP7 market...

But WP7 won't die, because it was never born HAAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA.

WP will not DIE eventually it will loose its smartphone customers.

WM 6.5 was fine until MS started rolling out WP7.

its been a year still no sign of growth.
[Windows Phone 7 General] dragonide:
I think something you could do to help WP is stop opening another "WP WILL DIE" thread. Everybody already knows marketshare is not the good point about WP.

What you should ask yourself is :

Is my phone fast ?

Do I have the apps I need ?

Do I like this phone ?

Do I prefer WP over Android ?

If you answer yes to these questions, there is no reason to spread pessimism.

Hype and mood are important things for such products, don't you know ?
[Windows Phone 7 General] LexusFman:
This. I also hate when people say Windows phone came "late" into the game. It's never too late. De people really expect we will still be using iOS and Android in the year 3000? Give me a break. As long as you can prove to consumers your product does the job better than the competition its NEVER too late.
[Windows Phone 7 General] FinancialWar:
You see this is the irony here. Windows Phone is supposed to be a business product, but instead Microsoft here has taken away it's only real reason for me get a Windows phone.

I need a phone that can sync easily and cost-free with Microsoft Office Outlook. And Windows Phone 7 can not do that, there is no task, contact sync without exchange account. And most people do not have an exchange account.

This is ridiculous, Microsoft have been pushing Xbox integration instead of Office integration. They marketing WP more of a gaming/multimedia device than a serious business phone. The irony is that iPhone now have better business integration than WP.

I want a communication and a business tool, not a time wasting handheld gaming music device.

Microsoft don't care about the people who supported Windows Mobile, they just want marketshare and profit by chasing after iPhone users by dumbing down Windows Mobile and making it look pretty and added gaming functions.

Until Microsoft gives us business users what we deserve, I will continue to use Android.
[Windows Phone 7 General] sinister1:
Because no body cares for an iPhone like phone with it's restrictions and lack of functionality. Coming from WM like just about every long time Windows Phone supporters WP is a slap in the face; a buch of ex WM people have jumped ship to either Android or for the lesser part the iPhone. It's Microsoft's own fault things are the way they are, come on you can't even add attachments other than pictures directly from Outlook, you can add documents but you have to to to the Office Hub which makes no sense because WP is supposed to eliminate extra steps and forget about audio files. I can go on and on but I'm getting tired of hearing my self; the ones that need to listen is Microsoft instead of telling us what we want.

[Windows Phone 7 General] naplesbill:
I honestly think most "business" users will have an Exchange account.

I understand your frustration with the lack of Outlook sync, but there are ways to sync without Exchange or Outlook.

You can use a Hotmail account to sync most of what you want. You can also integrate your Hotmail account into Outlook with the Outlook Connector.

I use a hosted Exchange account because I have my own domain name for my email. It costs me less than $100 a year, and it's well worth it to me.
[Windows Phone 7 General] sinister1:
Coming in late has nothing to do with it; giving us a phone that can't do half the stuff it's predessosor did is a stupid move by a major big time company that should know better is! Even the crappy Blackberry with it's lame OS can do more than WP as far as functions come. WP needs to stop trying to be like the freakin' iPhone for starters and then maybe they can actually reach their goal of being 3rd by 2014 or what ever they predicted.:(
[Windows Phone 7 General] drokkon:
Plus, you could argue that they were FIRST to the game, back when Palm and Windows Pocket PC edition were the only PDA/smartphone choices. Apple stood on the shoulders of others, so to speak, and iOS owed a lot to the existence of Palm/Windows Mobile, even if as an example of what NOT to do! Similarly, Microsoft was gutsy enough to scrap Windows Mobile and learn from the newest comers, iOS and Android, to leapfrog smartphone OSes again!

I think Windows Phone will prove to have some legs, so long as MS doesn't botch the Windows 8/Windows Phone 8 paradigm. That said, the original post in this thread is lame and baiting. Surprised it has replies at all. :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] FinancialWar:
Think again.

Do you think all the non-IT white collar workers such as investment bankers, lawyers, doctors and other millions of professionals who have absolute no interest in IT whatsoever would have the time or motivation to learn about MS exchange, office 356 and other MS productions just get their phone to sync well with Outlook?

No.
[Windows Phone 7 General] drokkon:
Unfortunately, it looks like you've fallen through the cracks! Most home users abandoned Outlook as their primary email software a half-dozen years ago, and I'd agree with others that a vast majority of Outlook users are corporate users with an exchange account that syncs flawlessly with Windows Phone (I know I am).

I switched from Outlook to Outlook Express a decade ago for home use, then eventually to Windows Live Mail and a Hotmail account. Everyone I know (even my grandparents!) are using web-based email at this point, be it gMail, Yahoo or Hotmail. Windows Live accounts mimic Outlook functionality for consumers: my wife and I share calendars, to-do lists, and contacts, all synced quietly and wirelessly, with a combination of Windows Live accounts. These are further integrated seamlessly with our calendars, contacts and email from our corporate exchange accounts. It's a beautiful thing, I can totally understand why Microsoft has dropped the old-school "plug in to your computer and manually sync with Outlook paradigm."

How does it go...evolve or die?
[Windows Phone 7 General] pillsburydoughman:
It will not die but WP7 series will get quickly abandoned by MS for WP8 at this rate. (and it's totally their fault for the slow release cycles)

I understand you could have listed many things, but I do have a question since I also came from WinMo to Android:

Does Android sync with your outlook like WinMo did?

Now onto the whole thing called Windows Phone. In my interactions with people on this board, I find the people that loathe WP7 the most are the ones that loved WinMo. There is this urban legend that what we know as Android was actually supposed to be a BB competitor. Here is an article talking about it. Now this does not prove that the functionality was like BB but it does show that Apple influenced the GUI.

Point is as divisive as Apple is, they changed the game. I have made analogies on it before, but to be straightforward it makes more business sense to people to chase after a crowded marketspace full of potential customers instead of an empty one with few customers.

If Windows Phone offered the app library and capabilities of iOS I think it would have significantly more marketshare than it does now. Might be near the top. Those things can be obtained over time. So they made a design decision to make a highly controlled OS in the Apple school of thought, but made it available to a wide range of OEMs, like Android, all wrapped in a different UI.

I think it is a good idea once they can get off the ground.

Yeah, battery pulls, lagginess, bloatedness, and slow lagginess are great definitions of the word "fine".
[Windows Phone 7 General] XxAndrexX:
At the end, I really don't understand why Microsoft did this OS...

Like someone in this topic said before, they where the first, with PDA OS, then they merged it with phone capabilities, it was simply so great, the integration with Windows XP was great too, as IPhone came out, they only had to improve, like they tried to do with WM6.5, for a better touch experience...

Microsoft only had to go on, they where light-years on head, android was too young, and marketplace was to introduce slowly...

The only thing Microsoft had to do, is to merge WP7 with WM.

To maintain the geek and the business customers, and steal some dumb people from IOS. Then Nokia would have been a perfect move, more stolen coustomers from IOS, and maintaining geeks and Enterprise customer.

It would have been everything simply so great, everyone would have been happy, Microsoft could spend more relaxed time improving METRO while the most of people would go on using te WM interface...

Android would be a semi-fail, and IOS would be a luxury gadget...
