Everyone please give me your attention:

Hi fellow gamers :}

I hope you like to have high FPS in games, and if you are like me then you definitely hate stutters & lags.

This idea is about giving you a smooth and lag-free gaming experience, just by lowering the resolution a little bit, don't worry about the artifacts your device is already having high DPI compared to PS Vita or PSP and you will hardly notice anything!

If you want more prove to be convinced, try finding a wallpaper with your native resolution and down scale it by 0.75 factor , then try to spot the difference on your screen device.

Please spread the word & show your support ,and be a part of Android's gaming future.

Aloha!

I'm a newbie here, just registered after a long term consultation of this goldy resource.

I actually have CM7 with 2.6.32.45-cyanogenmodrmcc@giskard #1 kernel and I damn love it, but i love to test everything i can (i used MIUI for several months, and i changed to cm after the support removing for this device).

I'm not writing just to introduce myself here and thank everybody for the passive support you gave me through the threads I rode here, but to have infos or rumors about the best CM9 based (official or not) stable ROM released and tested 'cause i'm thinking to have an upgrade :p

Sorrying for my bad english

I salute you all

Jaymz
[LG Optimus 2x] rockaroller:
I've been using CM9 for almost a month now, and my only complaints are occasional force closes and the need to reboot every once in a while. If you want your phone stable and fast, keep it with CM7. CM9 is very good and also fast, but not as stable. The problem is, once you try it, you'll have a hard time going backwards.
[LG Optimus 2x] jaymz.napalm:
Hard time for what?

Isn't enough to backup anything and flash the phone in order to restore a backup did with cwm??

What's failing with cm9 that make you to do a reboot? And how often?

What version of cm9 are u using ?
[LG Optimus 2x] sihan:
Hi.

I think rockaroller says that you need free time to do backups and restores. CM9 is innestable and need reboot frequently. the best of newbe is CM7 or V20q.

When you know what a nandroid, because we have no hardware acceleration in CM9, a kernel and I do not think you should do to get into "beta" as CM9

I'm sorry for my bad english too.
[LG Optimus 2x] rockaroller:
I said you'll have a hard time going backwards because ICS brings a way better user experience than GB or Froyo. ;)

In what comes to backing up your data and restoring it again, there are no problems. And you can flash GB or Froyo anytime you want.

EDIT: typo fixing. ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] -sandro-:
Do those issues apply to every CM9 ROMs?

What are the known issues apart from lack of hw acceleration?
[LG Optimus 2x] rockaroller:
The problems with CM9, at least for me, are related to the camera and enabling or disabling data. About the camera, it's because the lack of media acceleration, so it's completely understandable. When it comes to enabling or disabling data, I do it very often - sometimes when I disable it, I can't enable it back, and that forces me to restart my phone equally often. But, as I said before, the better user experience makes up for it.
[LG Optimus 2x] tecnolo:
I'm trying nova rebuild - a cm9 rom based - to now I think it's the best rom I've tried..

Little drained battery.. But I'm not working on undervolt and similar.. O change kernel..

I know this is probably petty, but for me it's sort of a big deal.

I like light characters on a black screen, especially at night. There are flashlight apps to turn the screen white because it's bright and at night I would prefer to have a black screen.

Is there a way to change the conversation history to black, and lso for the background behind the balloons in an SMS?

Is there a ROM that has an option for this?

Thanks for the help!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Ends:
Go sms. Totally customizable. Backgrounds, fonts, font colors, etc
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] liquidzoo:
Handcent will let you do this too.

If you get GoSMS Pro, grab the Theme builder in the market as well. It will allow you to totally create your own theme.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CodeRedDewd:
I should have included that I've tried all those. Yes, they're good and very customizable. But I've not been able to get them to work seamlessly and to replace the stock messaging. One of those my keyboard does't display properly with and simple other things. Plus I really like how I can go to messages and slide to the right to call. That's the easiest way to call people. That's my favorite feature and no one else has that.

What's so hard about changing the stock messaging to black with white text? lol At one point there was a night mode that made the conversation history black, but not now.

One question... For example a lock screen. There are different ones to install. Is there a different messaging to install to replace stock that someone has added things to? I don't even know if it's possible to replace messaging or not. I don't really want to install another app... I've just not had the best luck with them having the right feel.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] plwalsh88:
Firstly, are you on GB or ICS? And which ROM?

If GB, you could swap out the AT&T mms.apk with the Rogers version, as they use a dark charcoal background behind matte blue and yellow bubbles (was always my favorite). Or you could try the mms.apk that Sean used to include in his GB ROMs. It was basically stock, but came with 5 themes. If you're on NexusMod GB, somewhere in the thread R4INS posted a CM7 mms.apk which has a light and dark theme.

If you're on an AOSP ICS (which I know you're not since you mention swipe to call), you could try the inverted mms.apk, which is black. If you're on stock ICS, the only thing I can think of is to just decompile the apk and use Gimp to change the colors as you'd like them (which goes for any apk really), although I think the important images are *.9.png's which are tricky. Or since you like TouchWiz, see what the T-Mobile mms.apk from their leak looks like? And if it works? As I don't know the answer to either.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CodeRedDewd:
I'm running ICS that I just flashed. I put in SKYICS also.

Thank you for getting back to me. I'm new to this and starting to figure things out. I opened the mms.apk with WinRar and found most of what I want to change. I've not used Gimp. For colors I usually use Office Picture Manager. I'll have to check out Gimp. I'm starting to understand a little about the xdaAutoTool. I suppose I have to decompile the mms.apk , modify what I want, then recompile it, zip it all back up, then install it through CWM. I can't get the adaAutoTool to run because of the OCX thing and I don't know how to register the files. I wish I knew someone that could decompile the apk, let me change some of the .png files and recompile it for me. I want to change the editor box from this almost black to black beause it looks incredibly grainy at 1% gray or whatever it is. The hard thing for me would be figure out how to change the text color to white if I had to on the conversation list. I think I'll do as you suggested and look for another mms.apk.

You said I like TouchWiz... I'm not exactly sure what that even is. Isn't that something to do with the buttons and how they look at the bottom?

You mentioned the CM7 something. I'm not exactly sure what the CM is. I have CM5 and it said I have a mismatch when I tried to restore my original ROM that I backed up. it was 2.3.6 I think.

Thanks for the help and I'll be back. I'm going to look for another mms.apk...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CodeRedDewd:
Wow, thank you for that information. Some of the fuzzy things are a little clearer now but not much. lol

What you said about replacing a png - I opened the ROM in 7Zip, clicked down to the Mms.apk. I right clicked and copied to desktop. I opened that in 7Zip and dragged and dropped the png into that. I changed the file extinsion to .zip and put in on my phone. When I tried to install it though CWM touch it just aborted.

I'm not 100% sure, but I edited the png in paint. I magnified it 800 times and could see a perfect rectangle inside of this other stuff. I only made the perfect rectangle black and saved. The one I'm doing is textfield_default_dark.9.png. I don't quite think I edited it wrong since it wouldn't even install. My editing wrong would make it FC or not show right?? I don't know how to troubleshoot.

In the meantime I'm going to check out some of your other suggestions. However I would LOVE to be able to fix what I want. Why make a black that's not black and can't be displayed right by the display because the pixels are just barely on?

Suggestions on my proceedure? I read somewhere earlier that there has to be some something done to the png for permission or something strange....

I checked out the dark themed Mms.apk you mentioned at the top. This is what it says.

This is not flashable. what you'll need to do is navigate to system--> app, rename your current mms.apk to something like "mms.apk.old" or "mms.apk.bak". Then paste the attached into the same folder. Reboot your phone and voila.

I lost root access and cannot get it back when I installed SKYICS. I'm running UCLD2. I haven't been able to put together what to do about this. I tried to install my original backup and it said CM5 mismatch or something. I do believe I need root access to navigate to the system folder because I can't find it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Ends:
yeah. you need root. you dont really need to "flash" in CWM. Just replace the original in the system. But you do need root. Reboot into recovery and flash superuser
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CodeRedDewd:
I did that a few times and nothing. I gave up on rooting for a while then now I'm rooted. Titanium, when I opened it, asked for permission. It wouldn't do that yesterday. I'm just going to have to say okay I'm rooted.

I'm trying to find the system directory right now...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] plwalsh88:
Yea so like I said, since it's a 9-patch file (*.9.png), I'm not sure if you can just edit the image and throw it back in there. I'm guessing that Paint only recognizes it as a *.png, and so saves it as such. 9-patch images need to be recompiled, as far as I know. So that might've screwed you up, even if you installed it right.

So about installing it. Everything above sounds like the correct process EXCEPT for changing the file extension. A CWM flashable zip isn't just any old zip file. It's has a certain structure to it and includes a script file that tells CWM exactly what to do with the information contained inside the zip. With a system apk, all you need to do is get the file on your phone somehow (microSD, USB cable, Dropbox, etc.), and then copy and paste it into the /system/app directory, afterwards setting its permissions to rw-r--r--. To do this, yes you will need root access. It shouldn't be that hard to just root again if you lost it somehow. Or judging by your last post, you may have successfully rooted again.

Which brings us back to this mms.apk. Definitely give this app another shot using the above method once you obtain root again. You will need an app such as Root Explorer, which can be downloaded from the Market.

As far as restoring your backup, the error you received was an MD5 checksum mismatch error. You can Google what MD5 means, and possible reasons why CWM gave you that error. I think it gives it to you sometimes when you rename a backup file and put a space in the file name.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CodeRedDewd:
I'll have to research that MD5 thing...

I got the Mms.apk copied to the right directory and my changes worked. I have to use something other than paint that allows me to keep white as the transparant color. This is pretty awesome... Maybe I'll post my result when I figure out what's going on. I'm thinking the text field is a box within a box. I got a black box with a very dark gray one in the middle... But it's progress! Thanks for your help!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] plwalsh88:
That's awesome man, good job! Wanna post a screenshot for me? A before and after if you have it?

But if you need something better than Paint, I'd look into Gimp. It's what most of the guys on here use. It's basically the Linux version of Photoshop. And being Linux, it's free and open source... and has been ported over to Windows. It works great for quick image editing. Just takes a bit of Googling to learn all the buttons haha.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CodeRedDewd:
I'm using Gimp because it keeps the transparant background. I had a big white box around my box from paint.

Update: When I used paint, it seemed things worked correctly besides the white box around the editor. The transparancy was lost. In Gimp, if I change 1 pixel I get a whole distorted image for the editor. In paint, I made the blue line gold and the box black. That looked great. Nothing seems to be working right with Gimp. Wait, in Paint I did notice one thing. The box was a true black, but with a lighter black, wide stripe in the middle from end to end, as if it was another png inserted into it. Hmmm... In Gimp it looks like nothing is getting inserted and the small image is stretching all the way across with the thin blue line getting super fat. I didn't jack the image up. I only changed one pixel to red in the middle of the black. I'm thinking there's more to this. Someone posted something about a decompiled image that had extra dots around the edge and one a one pixel line on two sides or something. I didn't break anything, because I put in an untouched png and it fixed things, so it's just the image.

Any ideas? I'm headed out to watch a movie, but I'm determined.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] liquidzoo:
Look for a brush diameter or feathering option in Gimp and change it to the smallest one you have. I've had to do that in both Photoshop and Gimp before to get the apk changes I've made to look right and not have that outlining that you're referring to.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CodeRedDewd:
I understand what you mean, but this is different.The .9.png looks exactly the same when I edit it. I'm just making it darker. The .9.png files are made of 9 sections taht are stretched individually so the image is not distorted. In my case, Gimp is destroying that ability and the image is getting stretched the wrong way when displayed. For example, if you stretch a line along its lengt it still looks like the same line only longer, which is what they do. But if you stretch it across its width, it becomes this fat line, which is what is happening in my case.

I think you're editig just .png and not .9.png files?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] plwalsh88:
Do you think some information in this tutorial could be of any help? There's also a video tutorial available.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CodeRedDewd:
Yes it's possible that would be very helpful. I found either that or another tutorial last night. It was interesting how the .9.png files are sectioned. I conda figured that out on my own, because it would have to be to get bigger and not distort fine lines. I'll have to find that tutorial itself, because that post you linked has no links in it. I went to a 9patch website or something that had all the stuff, but it got too deep pretty quickly. In the short time I studied it, I had no clue how to even begin to install and use the program.

What baffles me is how Paint didn't screw up the .9.png. It worked fine with my edits, only it had no transparency so there was a white border. It was able to scale fine to landscape and portrait. It looked great. I totally though I had it figured out. :/ Have you looked at how to do .9.png files?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] plwalsh88:
The tutorial is contained in the OP of that post I linked to. It contains links for all the tools you need and a short description of the process to follow. And then I think the video tutorial might just guide you through the OP of that first link.

But yea, that's really interesting how Paint worked so well. Did you happen to take any screenshots of the Paint-edited apk running on your phone?

And no, I actually have never looked into editing .9.png files. Didn't really even know how they worked until you explained them a little bit in one of the above posts.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CodeRedDewd:
I attached an image. I'm not sure if it's going to show up in the post as an image; we'll see.

There is a white box around what is suppose to be shown as the editor. In the center of the black box it's not true black as the black surrounding it that I changed in the .9.png. The center must be another image.

I'm thinking I'm just going to make the white black, find the other gray images the buttons are on and make that one black. Who needs transparancy when it's all black, which is what I want anyway. lol

I'm going to look into the 9patch some more... It just seems so complicated with how to install and get working. It would be nice to work with someone who is actively editing .9.png's to get me on track....

Do you have an interest in editing those png's? lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] plwalsh88:
Haha unfortunately, not right now. Although I am also very picky about things and like to try to make everything how I want it to be. I just haven't had much time lately to do any modding. Sorry I can't help you any further on the 9-patch editing. Hopefully someone else with a little more knowledge on it will come along at some point. But yea as you said, if you just make everything black, it shouldn't matter haha!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CodeRedDewd:
I added another image for what I'm shooting for. I edited the screenshot in Gimp to see what it would look like. I inversed the colors on the balloons, but would probably do something different. Basically just light text on BLACK background.

I tried to install the xda developer tools that have 9-patch in it, but it won't let me. It says I don't have the JDK installed, but I do. I added the environmental variable as it said and pointed to the folder java.exe is in. I'm not sure if that's exactly right though.

I think 9-patch is going to be the answer because I'm thinking the background around the editor box with the send button it is in an xml file. I'm not sure though, and decompiling the apk will allow me to change the .9.png and the xml files I think.

I attached another screenshot that shows no white area.

My next step is to try to install the xda Developer Tools... I think that's what it's called, with the 9-patch in it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mostyle:
Been looking for a new project. I'll decompile the MMS.apk and see what I can find. I like the black background too FWIW.

Are you set on specific colors? I'm thinking Sent messages maybe white or a shade of grey.. and sent being a shade of blue to keep with the ICS (AOSP) color theme.. Ideas?
