Quick guide on "How to..." batch editing hundreds of .9.png files in seconds for faster themeing!!

first off go here and download the version for your system... i'm running W7 x86 and used this version "ImageMagick-6.7.5-6-Q16-windows-static.exe" so this guide will be based off of Windows setup!!

if you scroll down on that link, you will see ALL the commands that program can execute... the main commands i use are commands for adjusting brightness/saturation/hue and also colorizing...

first off you want to HAVE COPIES of your original images... what i do is i have open the folder of images i'd like to edit from a given .apk and i copy over the images i'm going to edit to an empty folder on my desktop (name it whatever you like)... once the images are there, you can now open up command prompt window and change directory to that folder... you are now setup to batch edit images!!

please refer back to the link for exact commands on what you'd like to execute... i've only really used 2 of them and here is a sample command you can type... please make note to type it EXACTLY as it's show in

below...

i generally use this command when i'm changing a white icon to a given color... it's in the "[I]Red, Green, Blue[/I]" format... leaving a value at "0" makes no changes... so adjust accordingly!!
[code]mogrify -colorize "0, 0, 0" *.*

this is one of the more used commands for me... this adjusts the "Brightness, Saturation, Hue." leaving a value at "100" makes no changes... i generally never adjust the brightness up on a .9.png b/c it sometimes affects the defining 1x1 black pixel... same goes for colorizing .9.png images... if you DO make adjustments that affect that 1x1 pixel, just open later with whatever image editing software program and fix them!!

mogrify -modulate "100, 100, 100"

one last thing that was a HUGE help in editing .9.png files that denverg showed me... when you decompile an .apk, you can just edit the image either with this method or with imaging software of your choice (i use GIMP) and when you compile, they will compile perfectly fine... of course this DOES NOT HELP if you are creating custom patches unless you know where to place them w/o having to see it real-time what those patches do... for that use draw9patch tool!!!

hope that helps!

is there any way u can direct us to a xml/text editor for changing fonts/colors.. iv been kicking my self trying to find one but they dont seem to work..
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] the1dynasty:
i use Notepad++

you can't edit xml files unless the apk you grabbed them from was decompiled... check post #2 for guides on how to do that stuff... this thread is for what to do AFTER the file has been decompiled!! hope that helps :)

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] the1dynasty:
any update on VRTheme??
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] the1dynasty:
found this on wiki for colors and hex codes... i was struggling to find out what values to use for various transparency levels... with shane's guidance, i think i have a better understanding of all this... from this wiki link

6 shades of each color

Key -- Hex -- Fraction

0 -- 00 -- 0%

3 -- 33 -- 20%

6 -- 66 -- 40%

9 -- 99 -- 60%

C or (12) -- CC -- 80%

F or (15) -- FF -- 100%​

so essentially, these are the values that get places at the beginning of a colored value to determine the opacity!! hope this helps b/c it has helped me a lot to better understand this :cool:
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] the1dynasty:

So I'm not sure when or how it happened, but when I look in OSH partition with root explorer, I get a big fat nothing. No bytes, no files. I have show hidden files on. I made a backup when I first unlocked with osh on it, and will attempt to backup with osh tonight, which should show if there's anything to backup. Can someone tell me if I'm hosed? I don't own a lapdock, so I have no way to test at the moment. I'm on cm9 if that matters.

[Hardware Hacking General] lamego.pinto:
Hello,

I have bought a tablet from a spanish vendor, BQ Readers, the tablet is based on a RK2918 chip set. They provided the kernel source except for the battery driver which for some odd reason they are not allowed to distribute.

I have found which seems to be the driver for a similar battery, it works with the following issues:

- The battery charge indication decreases at a much faster rate (the voltage value must be wrongly translated to %)

- The device is powered down when the charger is plugged in (most likely related to low battery being properly reported).

I don't have sufficient knowledge about batteries to adjust the parameters or code logic for my device, so any help would be appreciate.

The code can be found at github, just google for "rk2918_battery.c".

Thanks

[HTC Sensation] demol3:
Well I have came across many threads about Internal and external battery for Sensation and I know it's best to have an anker 1900mA or a Li-ion external battery.

However, I used 4 AA 2500 Ni-MH battery which can be found on Amazon: Eneloop XX 2500mA

I used a little device that can hold 4 AA battery and has a usb port which convert the voltage to ~5V and max current of 1A.

I wonder if it will damage my internal battery (currently HTC OEM) and will it give a good transfer of enegy between those battery compare with external li ion and internal li ion.

I know this is a complicated way to solve battery problem but I used to be iphone user so I cant change internal battery (which is crap), so suggestion of buying a new battery is appreciated but it will be more welcome if you can provide information that Im seeking.

Thanks for your time :D

[HTC Sensation] anarchychris:
Whenever I run Fix Permissions in Recovery it seems to finish in less then 1 second. I would expect that this would take longer to traverse system folders to find issues and then correct the permissions appropriately.

If I run Fix permissions from CWM with the phone booted it is checking and fixing issues and this process can take a minute or so. (The only issue with this is that it kills sms links to profile pictures and I have to run a seperate security modification using terminal every time)

This isn't really a big issue because as i can run fix permissions from within the ROM but if anyone can provide some insight it would be appreciated.

Thanks

[Eee Pad Transformer General] lemonoid:
I am having some video issues. For some reason. within the browser and Youtube apps, when I play a video, the video plays very rapidly, without sound. About every one second, the video progresses between 13-18 seconds almost like im fast-forwarding. Any ideas? Nothing special is done to my TF, its now stock. I was having screen issues after I got my Transformer at the beginning of December, so I unrooted it through the most recent OTA and sent it in for warranty repair. I have had it for weeks and haven't noticed the problem, but honestly I can't say that I am positive I've watched a video since I got it back. I haven't been taking my tab to campus because the wifi there is a b**ch to log onto, and at home I've been using my PC because its easier to do most of my homework there. So I haven't been using it a whole lot but now that I want to, its pissing me off.

So does anybody has had this error on their phone? Sometimes when I want to take a pic it shows a light blue/cyan screen error, and the picture doesn't get taken. The error says:

Failed to save photo to SD card (error code=2)

The following are fixes for this error:

- make sure your SD card is inserted

- remove the SD card and re-insert, then launch Camera ZOOM FX again

- reboot and try again

If this problem continues, please mail admin.androidslide@gmail.com

Somebody knows what is going on?

Thanks.
[Motorola Atrix 2] armyengineer51:
I'm using the same app, but haven't had any problems since switching to a Class 4 SD card (due to the known issue w/Class 10 cards on this device). Can't seem to use video with it though, every time I try to switch to video it force closes.
[Motorola Atrix 2] nahuelarg86:
The weird thing is that if I do a factory reset, then it works fine, but as soon as I begin to install some apps and play around, then it happens again.:confused:

I just downloaded Camera Zoom FX and got the same thin I took out my sd card and tried the app again, same response. I bought a 16mb class 6 sd card at the suggestion from here on what would work. The camera is a disappointment with the stock app, hope I can get FX working.
[Motorola Atrix 2] kirkgbr:
So far no problems with Camera Zoom FX.

OS versions 2.3.5 or 2.3.6.

SDcard is a Sandisk 16G class 6
[Motorola Atrix 2] The_new_user:
Any news nahuelarg86 on your situation
[Motorola Atrix 2] ZBell:
I had the same problem with this app. The standard camera app would appear to save the pictures but when you would go into MyGallery, no picture would be there although you wouldn't get an error message like CameraFX. I found this information somewhere else, but if I went and looked at the dcim directory on the sdcard there would be corrupt files in the Camera subdirectory. Deleting these files would then allow pictures to be saved. I was using a class 10 sd card, but switching to class 4 didn't fix the issue. I did the OTA update to 2.3.6 hoping this would correct the issue. This made things worse regarding the camera apps. Every picture file for news pics appeared to be corrupt. I then did a factory reset to 2.3.6 and I haven't had a problem with the camera apps since.
[Motorola Atrix 2] nahuelarg86:
Well, I did a factory reset and I didn't have the problem again. But, I began to download some apps and play around and then I got it again... I deleted all the apps that I installed last time in hope that it would help, and it did. For me it's a pain in the a$$ to do factory resets because of the setting up, re installing of thing, etc.

I still don't know where the problem might be. Seems like it's related to space or the resources an app uses, but I know of the problems of SD cards and everything is stored in the phone's memory. So I have no idea...
[Motorola Atrix 2] solidsnew:
I know this thread is old, but it was the first hit on google, so maybe someone else will need the solution: Most of the times the save feature on external sd card is corrupted because of rom change. Backup your data of your external sd on your PC. Then go in android under settings < "space" (Speicher auf deutsch) and format the external sd card. Afterwards you should be able again to save your pictures on your external sd card, because the card is now perfectly formatted to your rom....

For a easy guide to unlocking the bootloader, see here.

There, they alos tell you how to see if you're phone has an unlocked bootloader or not.

I rooted the phone using Flashtool first. That is done by clicking the big padlock icon.

[Atrix 4G General] hobomilitia:
I've just recently started trying custom ROMs, and one thing that I can find (and I did at least try searching) is to find out if its possible to have the dual unlock (both fingerprint and pattern unlock) like I could with the stock ROM.

This is the only feature that I miss from stock. I liked being able to tap the power and quickly fingerprint unlock without looking or using pattern unlock if needed.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Much obliged :D
[Atrix 4G General] xwolle:
cm7 doesn't allow you to do that but if I were you I would just upgrade to cm9 and download the face unlock, that takes no effort :).
[Atrix 4G General] blueefire:

[Atrix 4G General] cheezycheeto:
Its part of Ice Cream Sandwich. you would have to download the cm9 roms and it will be in there.
[Atrix 4G General] hobomilitia:
So there's no way to do it with a CM based rom? :sadness: Do any of the bur-based roms have this ability?

Also, I thought cameras were still not working for Atrix on ICS...?
[Atrix 4G General] deconzme:
?

is this for EXTREMELY paranoid people? i don't understand.. just use face recognition or fingerprint then.. or don't keep it on your phone, just an idea,
[Atrix 4G General] dLo GSR:
face unlock is an ICS feature, not CM- or moto- based. you need ICS, in our case CM9.

check up on the CM9 thread, it's BOOMING and cameras work fine now. only a few issues left to tweak but it's already at daily driver status.
[Atrix 4G General] hobomilitia:
I'm sorry, I didn't mean that the facial recognition part, I just meant having the dual fingerprint/pattern unlock. It's just a convenience thing. I like using the fingerprint unlock because its ultra convenient, but having the pattern unlock as a fallback is important for me as well. It works this way with the stock ROM, I'm just wondering if there is any way to get this feature with any of the custom ROMs?

I'm surprised no one else sets their phone up this way as it seems to be the most useful way to use the fingerprint reader. Anyway, thanks everyone for the help.
[Atrix 4G General] Caebron:
I'm with you - simply sliding your finger really is a very convenient feature. Unfortunately it isn't native to Android so CM7 doesn't support it.

I just installed this ROM. Gorgeous!

I was trying to take a pic, but get a message saying I need to insert SD Card. So I am guessing this is the issue that CM9 uses EXTERNAL memory. But I know that usually you can opt the system to use INTERNAL memory instead.

Is there a way to do this???
