cool

i had the holo blue theme running on my i9000 it looked amazing but as you say i had problems with my sd card and also the nav bar is there permanenty so ive ended up switching back. If you had the weather working in the notification bar then id be flashing this right now but until thats fixed i'll wait but i'll definatly be keeping my eye on this because the holo blue is by far the best looking theme i've found yet.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] tomiho.d:
The weather is there when you pull down the bar but the small icon is missing. Touchscreen buttons can be turned off in settings.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wulamoc:
http://www.whispersys.com/permissions.html

More and more often, I am seeing applications that want access to things they simply have NO business accessing.

I understand that I can manually modify the packages.xml... however I am hoping that this issue has already been resolved in a easier-to-use fashion.

The above link looks pretty awesome, but isn't available.

Anyone know of an application that won't simply 'deny' an app access, but rather give it false info as though it had access?

Hello guys, since I've took a break from theming and have a new baby boy I don't have the time for theming right now...

What I do have the time for is Lockscreens and Home screens

Ive had a crazy number of PM's on how to make them, instructions ect ect so the dudes over at the desktop thread suggested a new thread just for this purpose..

So Lets get on to the first one (none of this is my work, my work (only some modded icons ect is detailed at the last part of this post. I take no credit for the Original concept or ideas..

A massive thanks to the guys over at My colorhomescreen........ you know who you are !..

Lets crack on.

Light ...

Dark

Dark 2...

ICS Version (I modded out the android)

And my super modded one :)

And my new modded white one

These are the instructions and downloads for the first dark one here ....and the widgetlocker theme for the lock screen

http://www.reddit.com/r/GalaxyNexus/comments/s1xsn/finally_customized_my_galaxy_nexus_home_screen/

Its for the galaxy nexus but the concept is the same... These instructions work for my modded version to a point..... I use snowstorm for the weather and minimulistic text for the battery...

I use ADW Launcher ex ....go launcher ex and others will work too ...

Here is my modded lockscreen too, works fine with the Galaxy S2

Feel free to post in the thread for any help..

Here are my finished working screens :)

Enjoy !

Sorry to ask, does it worked only for CM9 rom? I am using Hyperdroid 6.1.7. I hope I can use it.

Hope you can advice. Thank you.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] aquariuzism:
No, the question is not about the ROM but the launcher, i managed to figure the things out on ADW Launcher, 7x7 grid layout, Hyperdroid as well. :)

If you still didnt get it then here is a little help

http://180upload.com/ms89py5a89de/UltimateCustomClockWidget.zip.html

download from above link and place the "weather" folder as it is in the "UltimatecustomClockWidget" folder. Remember that there is a folder inside the "weather" folder called "weatherhd3" which needs to stay like that only. After that, tap on the UCCW widget for the weather and in the dropdown menu select icon for current weather and press the set folder option and you will be shown the folder name "weatherhd3". Select it and it should start working fine

Is FD02 still the latest repack option that we have, or have I missed one?

I try to keep a check on sfhub's handy autoroot tool to see if there are any updates but wanted to make sure there hasn't been a development since his last update.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
We may have lost Steady to the Gnex and there being no reason to do one other than to be up to date with a decent build such as FD26.... we havent seemed to convince anyone to do one quite yet?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:
Thanks for the reply. I know I've seen a few names bandied about in reference to picking up the repack reins but hadn't found anything confirmed.

I should add I'm one of those anal retentive types who likes having everything in sync (baseband and kernel) regardless if it matters or not. I Odin stock kernels onto custom ROMs then lose access to cwm, so when I want to flash something new I have to autoroot back to a cwm repacked kernel. It's a vicious cycle I put myself through. lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
If there was someone to mentor me I am willing to pick up the job since I am staying on this phone for 2 years. Stalking sfhub i picked up 2 very good threads on kernel development for this phone. But without a little help its something ill get to eventually instead of right this moment.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:
I wonder if you could PM SteadyHawkin, Shabbypenguin, or chris41g. I'm not 100% certain about the latter but I think all those people have worked in the kernel repack field.

I wish I had the time and technical knowledge to take up the project. You would have my full support and thanks :)

Thank you Jimbo for the awesome tutorial.

When doing the following: Unpack-Edit-Pack the boot.img permissions are lost.

Enyone knows how to preserve original permissions?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jimbo77:
Hey Polimorph!

Nice to see you around here!

What exactly is the issue you're experiencing? What Permission did you loose after editing the boot.img?

If you could be a bit more specific I can help you with the Kernel editing since I know you're learning to do so for the i9300 and I have experience due to my Kernel for this specific phone :)

Jimbo
[Xperia Arc Android Development] _polimorph_:
Thanks for the warm wellcome.

You might know already that lately in MIUI there's a new daemon that's needs to start at boot in /system/xbin folder named "shelld". It's vital to run it for the themes engine. The CM10 kernels don't have the startup script embeded so I need to add it manually in the init.rc for every new kernel version I include in the ROM.

For this to be done I'm adding these lines at the end of the init.rc file after unpacking boot.img:

service shelld /system/xbin/shelld
class main

.

I'm using Siyah's kernel in my latest builds. As you know this has it's own tweaking utility STweaks and the problem here it comes. After altering ramdisk and repacking the STweaks app no longer wants to recognize the kernel saying it's not supported. I've learned from Gokhanmoral that this behaviour is due to losing permissions while repacking boot.img.

This is my first experience ever with kernels so that's about all the information I know for now about this issue.

Can you figure out how can we keep permissions?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jimbo77:
Why don't you attach the files you are using so I can take a look?

Based on what you are saying and also based on the behavior of STweaks a probable solution might be to check on STweaks app and see where that "Check for Siyah's kernel" lies and modify it to recognize your new boot.img

That's just a thought and it might need GM permission to modify it and redistribute. I'll take a look ok :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] _polimorph_:
The file is boot.img from Siyah 1.8. To reproduce the issue just unpack, repack and flash the new repacked Siyah kernel.

Good ideea about modding STweaks, i'll have a look.
