Its exactly it, the way it is recompiling the apk is the problem, now whether it be because its not loading the dependence correctly when it decomps it or when it rebuilds, because the errors first appear when loading the com.htc.blah blah so... that's what needs to be ironed out. That said, glad u guys/gals are getting more involved. And ya I saw his thread its having the same errors. That's the problem with not having a phone I/we can test on.

Edit: to answer your edit..

There is something up because all the apks I had u test I did not touch anything in the apk, just a straight decompile and rebuild and u say its still crashing

edit:2

lets try this, got an idea,

try this and see if it works

and if so we are in busness

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:
I'll try it:)

Ok 3 dot menu is still there for me. I ook it to system/app fixed the permissions and at first it forced closed then it was fine but I had nothing change
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] RegnierD:
I'll give it a try in a sec. Gonna dl and push it now. I think I remember reading somewhere last time I tried to do something that if you edit an xml you have to do something special to rebuild the apk, but I can't remember. It's been at least four months, and I'm already piss-poor in my understanding of modding.

Hmm... Maybe the lines are in the framework-res.apk then, because if SysUI is crashing and the software keys are still working, there must be something somewhere else keeping them alive.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:
Well system ui forced closed once right after I pushed it to system/app then it was fine. It's not force closing anymore
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] runandhide05:
OK its not force closing that's awesome I have the modded apk now the one u tested was just a rebuild no changes give me two seconds to link

here is gold....

https://www.box.com/s/c29832b768ff55cd23a6

^^^ this one should be long press home to recent: onscreen menu gone: and recent softkey for menu
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] RegnierD:
Hmm, I set the dpi values for the menu button in the nav bar xml to zero, so it shouldn't be showing up anymore.

I'm gonna put Aamikam's SysUI back on my phone and dig through the framework-res.apk to see if there's anything relevant in there.

Also, did you reboot and clear your Dalvik cache?

Edit: On the SysUI I have and the one that runandhide posted, I have no menu software key, but no status bar. I wiped Dalvik and rebooted.

That one didn't work either. :/ I dunno what the deal is. No wallpaper on lockscreen and no status bar, as usual.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] runandhide05:
The guy above said it worked, it fc after moving then it restarted??? So did it work or not? I understand u saw no changes but I did not change anything on that one just the one I called gold I actually made changes to
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] RegnierD:
I think he was talking about mine... But I'm not sure if he rebooted and cleared his Dalvik cache. If he did, there would be no status bar. I never got any fcs, and I've been doing everything with Root Explorer.

Tapatalked from my shiny new HTC Evo LTE
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] runandhide05:
Did u test "this is gold"

Edit: I'm going to need to steal a demo unit at the sprint store( evil laugh)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:
I'm about to try the gold one, brb
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] runandhide05:
OK thanks
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:
yayyyyyyyy 3 dot menu is still there.... No force closes at all though and everything is working fine.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] runandhide05:
Does long press home launch the recent apps? And does the recent soft key launch the menu?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:
When I change the key layout as stated in the op recent apps soft key opened up menu.

But as of right now with the stock key layout no, and no.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] runandhide05:
Crap should have restated u need to be on the stock key layout. So to be clear with "gold" system UI working no fc and u have status bar at top. And with the stock key layout recent button pulls recent as stock?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:
Yeah, that sounds about right
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] RegnierD:
I did. Moved with Root Explorer, set perms, wiped Dalvik in recovery and it didn't work for me. Long press home does not open recent apps and neither does the multitasking button on stock keyboard layout.

Tapatalked from my shiny new HTC Evo LTE
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:
Are you on the stock key layout?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] RegnierD:
Yep.

Tapatalked from my shiny new HTC Evo LTE
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] runandhide05:
But we are missing the silver lining... from my understanding we have a systemui that works after being recompiled right???
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:
yes on my end it works perfectly
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] RegnierD:
Nope. I get no status bar and have no lockscreen wallpaper; it's just black. After unlocking the wallpaper appears.

I don't know what alainater is doing differently, but it is not working for me. I'm running viperboy's deodexed rom.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:
That's so weird as I am to running his deodexed rom. When you flashed it did you wipe everything?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] runandhide05:
Ok, then let me state my findings, which are excatly what i stated before...

The apk we were using was most likely dodexed improperly, its as simple as that. The last apk i pulled from the mikmik site that was redone by that op. Im simple guessing hre but he,most likely fixed something with the apk pre decompiling.

So with that said, ya we didnt find where the softkeys calls r but we did figure out what the deal was, so OP i bet u money if u r using the apktool.zip i sent u u will be able to de and re build and actually get it to work after pushing.

Now we need to hunt down the calls the softkeys r making and find where we need to edit.

I would suggest preforming a logcat or so,ething while pressing the softkeys and see if there us any useful info in there that may help hunt it down
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] runandhide05:
Hmmmm....
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:
quite a dilemma
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] runandhide05:
Indeed my friend indeed
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] RegnierD:
Absolutely. I flashed it once, borked a file, wiped everything again and reflashed. Mik's SysUI works for me, but not that one. Either way, I don't think the software keys are there, so they have to be in the framework (I reaaaaaaally hope they are), which Fernando Sor has a guide to recompile easily. Hopefully we track this down!

Good call. That should have been the first thing I did, that way you can see what the software menu button calls. Big fat DUH on my part.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] runandhide05:
I just read thru his thread, (the deodexed rom u r usimg) did u see he acidently put the odex files in the deodex rom... u may want to recheck his thread
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:
I don't see any...

---------- Post added at 01:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:27 AM ----------

That's seriously weird then cause I did the exact same thing...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] RegnierD:
If it's just odexed framework, it shouldn't present any problems in theory, correct? If you can run deodexed apks in an odexed rom, it shouldn't matter if part of it is odexed, right?

I'm already downloading his update, just to be safe.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] runandhide05:
Here
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] runandhide05:
In theory ya, but in theory my systemui.apk sjould be working for u too...hehe so who the heck kjnows
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:
I'm waiting for the standalone framework folder update:)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] runandhide05:
OK, the file that contains what u r looking for is the android.policy.jar located in at /system/framework
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:
that means tomorrow should be fun:)

I'm going to bed haha more testing tomorrow I guess:o
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] RegnierD:
Time to learn how to modify a jar. :o
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] runandhide05:
alrightly, and i do believe this is where i tap out...

here is what i got

the edits need to be done in the adroid.policy.jar

the problem (imo) is I HATE SMALI edits!!!!!!!!

so im not jacken with it.

but for you heres some helpful stuff

your going to need this http://code.google.com/p/smali/downloads/list

basicly the code is

jars>java -jar baksmali.jar -o classout/ classes.dex
test

and that will decomp the jar file. and its ALL smalis which SUCK! thank god for source code...hehe

then when done its something like

java -jar smali.jar -o C:\path\to\new\classes.dex C:\output\folder\path

have fun and remember notepad++ is your friend.

lastly heres a few quick write ups on how to's just incase my instructions were not clear

Lol you guys forget I don't even have this phone... I'm still lurking in the dark corner...

I think I may have found something in PhoneWindowManager.smali and PhoneWindowManager$7.smali

I'll continue to look around. Got to do some family stuff at the moment.

you should ditch the galaxy nexus and get a Evo LTE like us cool kids

Oh please don't take my comment as rude...I was just trying to show my excitement for this 3 dot fix/mod.

i consider this to be the most important mod for our phones and probably the one X. so much wasted space on the screen!

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] RegnierD:

Got to try, its the best way to learn.. but yes it sucks simple because it is hard to make sense of it, give me Java or XML files all day long no problem, smali is equivalent to me (American boy/man(getting older I don't think I can call my self a boy at almost 30) trying to understand Chinese manuscript and then trying to spell check it...lol

ok let get this out of the way to easy the installation of everything from here on out.

this is a zip i need someone to flash and report back. it should place a file labeled placeholder.txt in two locations /data/app and /system/app

flash and report back

i'm rebooting now, one sec
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Andrell:
No kidding! I set this thread as my homepage!

Easily the most important! It's baffling how much this phone has been gimped by the lack of long-press buttons and the 3dot menu bar! Seriously, the screen may be better, but it's no larger than my original Evo 4G when that black bar pops up! And I can easily access the stuff that I want in my original Evo so much easier than I can with this phone due to the missing long press buttons and the varying placement of the menu button. In other words, the increased processor power doesn't do anything for me if all the essential functions have been buried or eliminated!

This Mod will make or break whether I keep this phone. IMO it's not a significant enough increase to justify the $200 price tag if I'm losing so much of the basic functionality and efficiency that I have come to expect from the original Evo.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:
Ok, it's there.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] runandhide05:
alrightly then!

give this a whirl and you MUST BE ONE A DEODEX ROM for now

wipe cache and dlvk is a MUST!!

this is just a test, recent key is stock all this is doing "should" add longpress home to lunch recent apps

https://www.box.com/s/9cfb5e0fb3d93ce18ad1

edit: damn my addictive behavior... i thought i said i was out...lol
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:
Must be on stock key layout?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] runandhide05:
no, in short

the way this end result will be achived is to have the zip include two files, the modded key layout and the android.policy.jar ( modded only for the longpress home)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:
Ok well I am anyways haha

Ok, nothing changed at all
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] runandhide05:
normal questions following

did u wipe then flash and no longpress on home...****

ok.. i really have to get this other stuff done but il be tinkering with it a bit later.

stupid htc... did u know that longpress home is enabled on car dock mode to trigger phone... or at least that what it looks like in the smalis...really htc??? why not just give it longpress everywhere...err
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:
I flashed then wiped.... I can try wiping then flashing if you want
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] runandhide05:
Shouldn't matter did u see android rebuilding on first boot?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] runandhide05:
It must be a deodexed rom
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:
Yeah it's the new viper rom. Fully deodexed:)

Ok I tried it on viperrom and it just kept booting.... not bootlooping it was just stuck at bootanimation. Ill flash the stock deodexed rom and try for ya.

On stock deodexed rom it still does nothing

your thoughts?

You can always default to ICS AOSP lockscreen built into ANY sense Rom.

Use estrongs or root explorer.

Navigate to system/app

Find htclockscreen.apk

Rename to htclockscreen.apk.bak

Check out your new lock screen.

It's the one with camera and unlock left to right.

No extra services running, simply rename back to have sense lockscreen back. If changes don't happen immediately, a reboot will fix.

Flash the .17 blob (and probably do a factory reset for good measure) and reroot. Don't touch anything else, and do the update. That should get you where you want to be. A lot of hassle, but I think it's the only way. You definitely don't need to return your tablet.
