I totally understand and respect sale's work and wishes. But this case is different! Sale asked us not to post mirrors so he could track and count the downloads of his roms. That is totally acceptable and understandable, and I do respect that. BUT v5.8 was forced to be taken of by some greedy dev who only cares about his credits and not sharing his knowledge and helping others (the reason we're all here remember?) I'm sure Sale gave credit for this other dev for using his mods on v5.8. Anyway, v5.8 is a very good rom and it should be made available to all S2 users. Since it is no longer officially available, I see no reason not to post new alternative links since Sale is no longer counting it's downloads or supporting this release... I only offer the alternative link via pm to support other members who want to enjoy this fine release by master Sale. I'm not trying to do something against Sale wishes, I'm actually trying to get even with this other dev who is the reason for taking this version down.. I say F*ck this other dev! Anyway, my offer still holds...

Cheers
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Goldie:
Why stir this up? Just respect the mans wishes for crying out loud!

And fyi it is doubtful 5.9 will be missing any mods ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] chempaxel:
"the owner of ROM don't want to share the mods which are on disagreement with other devs.". This is the main point in avirk's post. By sharing ROM version that Sale retired, you will create troubles to him. I guess he wants all 5.8 version of the ROM disappear in order to avoid further discussions. And you, even if it was a kind offer, are doing the opposite by increasing 5.8 version downloads...

Regards buddy, we just have to wait a few for the new version. And sure, no offence intended in the family. ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Vivek_Neel:
Thanks mate.

But

I already made one at morning mate by comparing with rezo xmls after decompiling it.(anyways I have to reduce the text size, I will work on it again:):cool:

May be marjune23 tbr is trying for dualboot..am not sure though:D)

They asked for the path.

Edit:

Cool guys.:D:D

So many long paragraphs:D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] bodomfan:
Would flashing neatrom 5.7 over 5.8 no wipe work ok?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Vivek_Neel:
Yes.

Chances are more.

Anything if it goes wrong, then wipe and flash rom
[Galaxy S II Android Development] marjune23:
Yes you made it by recompiling the xml and pngs with the System.apk. right mate?...:o

What we're trying to do is, to work it with the VrTheme flasher given by [MENTION=2948558]Spannaa[/MENTION]...(other than dualboot option)

I check already, all .xml files are in SystemUI.apk/res/layout in VrTheme folder...

And pngs are in drawable-hdpi...IDK why it is still not working...

I want to learn this VrTheme stuff as an alternative solution for recompiling the decompiled apks...:(:(:(

Edit:

Bye, be right back...

Already 8:30pm here...I almost skipped my dinner...hahaha...

Gggrrrrhhh VrTheme stuff...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Spannaa:
Just replied to your PM mate ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Vivek_Neel:
Do this way

~Download spannaa VrTheme(I assume the xml are readable)

~Decompile your systemui.apk

~Now compare the xmls and replace/add the corresponding lines

~Place pngs in drawable-hdpi

~Recompile

Open archieve your modded systemui.apk and drag/drop the two xmls from res/layout

Now u must be ok if u place all the required files in the correct destination.

the two xml U know where.

Thank you vivek and many40 and other for replying me. I don't know anything about modding . actually one of my friend do all these custom roms or mods on my phone. :D

Today he did some dpi changes on my phone with 180 dpi. From that my dialer looks like this. Well i like the 180 dpi got bored from that stock look. Any help to fix this dialer?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Vivek_Neel:
Flash This

Hmm..y don't u do it yourself (rooting/installating stuffs:confused:

How long will u be dependent on your friend.?:D

Must learn things..:)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Kathleen10:
When i am opening this link in browser. The browser always crashed. I got this problem after changing the dpi.. :(

Hehe.. I don't get so much attracted to these stuffs. He is my best friend so i am not dependent on him. :confused:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] engloa:
Wont the xml inside the vrtheme be compiled already thus unreadable? Just create a copy of the said apk, drag the xmls inside the vrtheme to the copy of the apk,decompile both apks and compare.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Vivek_Neel:
Yes mate..:)

But spannaa mentioned that he has "decompiled xmls" already in the zip.

Thus making easy for comparison. :)

---------- Post added at 06:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:17 PM ----------

Oh my god:D browser crashed huh?

Hmm..Stock browser too has to be modded for 180 dpi. . (Use third party browser)..also u can try xposed framework

Btw that modded dialer is for 200dpi..so if u try it on 180dpi u may not be satisfied with the result.

Increase the dpi to 200.

This time do it yourself.

Use textdroider app from playstore..simple just enter the dpi and reboot
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Spannaa:
In this case just existing xmls and pngs are being swapped so you don't need to put resources.arsc in the VRTheme.

This only needs including if you've edited anything in the \res\values folder.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Spannaa:
Not sure about the apk in the zip but using root explorer (or similar) go to \preload\symlink\system\app and make sure permissions for SecContacts.apk are set to rw-r--r--

Also, boot into recovery and clear the dalvik-cache.

OK just finished playing with [MENTION=4953009]reza2388[/MENTION]'s mod posted by [MENTION=4241220]marjune23[/MENTION] on clean Neatrom 5.8.

What I did is:

- adjusted: tw_status_bar.xml and s4_tw_status_bar.xml to current rom

- adjusted: tw_signal_cluster_view.xml - in original mod for WiFi - when data transmission started the WiFi icon was moving to the left (when speed meter was changing its readings) what was quite annoying.

- made speed meter text a little smaller to fit available space.

Download:

I am using LPY Lite+Mods 3.

When phone is off, after full charge, battery icon doesn't say 100% full. Is it a general bug or only happens for my device?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ApriliaM3:
You mean it never reaches 100% when turned off and charging or after you turn it on it's not 100% charged?

Maybe try wiping battery stats in advanced menu of Siyah recovery.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GregX80:
Guys you will kill me :D I'm not using 5.86 but 5.87. I've got 7 messages asking about link to full 5.86. Sorry about that. My mistake

There is my ExTweaks profile to 5.87 as I promised. I couldn't earlier because I was very busy - my wife likes to keep me busy when I have day off from work.

Remember If you expect very good effects with this profile you have to take down all big wakelocks and start t undervolt.

Regards and sorry again.

You have to put profile to data/.siyah and restore in ExTweaks.

It is possible to apply even more extreme settings for battery life but some phone can lost smoothness.

My battery is reaches to 100%, but when off my phone, the indicator battery (big yellow battery sign) doesn't show %100 signal. Everything is well, only 100% signal doesn't show when phone off . Not a big problem but it seemed like a bug.

There isn't any problem when phone is on.

A little question about aroma mods: at the end of installation (V2 too), when it says successfully installed press next to continue, i tap on NEXT and nothing happens, and i have to boot into recovery manually

PS tried some JB AOKP rom, but Neat is always the best choice. Now i'm using Neat 3.4 and Apex launcher themed and i'm totally satisfied
[Galaxy S II Android Development] GregX80:
You should apply aroma install from recovery and if it finished just reboot your phone.

Any advice on how to get them stacked folders, is that the s3 mod in aroma?

I deleted playstore and installed the new version that lets you delete apps from your all time downloaded app list but when i went to install an app it freezes, so reverted back and now this does the same, freezes on downloaded!

Any ideas?

Btw: @ greg x80 5.87 dorimanx is even smoother than 5.86 which i thought would be impossible, great isn't it!

I already figured out why the mods has no effect with me...I mistakenly selected normal flash instead of dualboot flash, the consequence was that symlink was broken between data_sec (/preload for normal) and /system...

So I manually symlinked again and pooff everything works fine now...silly me...:rolleyes:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Rated RR:
You are right. I completely forgot about it since i stopped using Dorimanx kernel that has that built in. Plus i don't see the ads that often as i rather buy the apps. They are usually at acceptable price, plus i support the development and the platform. For the price tag less than a cup of coffee you got extra good work.

Anyhow, see how funny this last download looked like :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Vivek_Neel:
As I said ad away ftw:thumbup:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Spannaa:
Will that work now?

Your SecContacts.apk still doesn't contain a META-INF folder and therefore has no signature.

Also, your updater-script is missing:

delete("/tmp/create_preload_symlinks");

Sorry if it looks like I'm being pedantic but it's worth getting these things right ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Rated RR:
Well, i can only imagine. It gives you some extra special bonus content that you don't even know how desperately you need it. :D
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Vivek_Neel:
It was flashed over clean neat rom and worked.

Usually I don't place metainf folder for all the system apks except SystemUI.apk(I use to sign using signapk.jar)

I just mod , signand make a zip.

And this zip was used for 23greentoggle mod ..I used it so that I thought i won't have problem.

Updater-script was also fine.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Spannaa:
Told you it'd seem pedantic ;)

System apks should have a signature - usually just the one from the original apk copied over.

The updater-script thing is just housekeeping - it's good to tidy up files that you've added to a device once you've finished using them.

Still, if it works, and you're happy then carry on :good:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Rated RR:
Confirming it's working great, thanks again.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Kathleen10:

[Galaxy S II Android Development] engloa:

Just a tip - drag and drop the meta-inf folder from the original apk file to the new one you modded, no need to sign unless you made changes to the androidmanifest.xml.

You can also drag and drop the androidmanifest.xml from the original apk to your modded one so long as you didn't edit the androidmanifest.xml (you need to sign it if such a situation arises)

[MENTION=5137880]Kathleen10[/MENTION], did you try also in clean install?

Flash NR 5.8, modded tw 200dpi and then fixed dialer mod?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Kathleen10:
Yes sir. I flashed the vivek mods but no one is working. And i don't want to reflash the rom again. But later i flashed the mod attached by spannaa which works for me. :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] TheGovernment:
I don't do it at all for my mods since Neatrom skips signature verification :D

And about META-INF (not the one inside apks) i have never edit anything except added some ui_print(); ... but they still work.. so i've never bothered to check it thoroughly.. but it's good to know this info so i can check there too if any problems occur

thanks.. [MENTION=2948558]Spannaa[/MENTION] and [MENTION=3973489]engloa[/MENTION] :svetius:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] avirk:
Yes he do it and he taught me the same way when I started to learn the modding and its very effective way until you don't play with androifiest.xml. :)

I'm surprise a good modder like you didn't know about it. So that's what we lesrn everyday in life. ;)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Spannaa:
I meant the signature in META-INF in each apk - there should be one.

If you edit AndroidManifest.xml you have to sign the apk but if you don't, the apk should retain it's original signature and AndroidManifest.xml even if services.jar is modded to skip signature verification.

Try this:

Copy SecContacts.apk to your PC, delete it's META_INF folder, put it back and set it's permissions to rw-r--r--

Result: app isn't installed...
