Algie17's mod you mean?Well it's usefull for o1 with bad power button(it change the power and search button, so power button=search and search button=sleep).It's based on my experience :).Btw updated second post :)(also, I will change the thread's name :rolleyes::o)
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] FPChaim:
Updated first post :)

Edit:do you want transparent statusbar in futures releases?
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] zoneofSAM:
That would be a good idea!

How about transperant status bar( both 50% & 100%) with soft buttons?

"A" and "B" name should be named as "PATCH" and "UNDO".
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] FPChaim:
Thanks for the tips :thumbup:

About "patch" and "undo":well imo "undo" gives the idea of returning to stock cm7 framework, and I liked "patch" suggestion :)

So, I will do "A" and "B" versions for both 50% and 100% and make a "undo" zip with the untouched cm7 framework :)
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] NFS420:
this isn't working!!:(
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] x-dira:
how to mod soft button center status bar?

thanks
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] FPChaim:
It's working!!:eek:What rom are you using?:confused:

[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] FPChaim:
Strange, I was using the same version of cm7 and it worked, can you download and try again?btw: when I have some free time I will add transparent status bar and you'l can test again xD
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] FPChaim:
soft buttons on the center of status bar?I don't known :(,I'm just a noob learning simple things from simple guides :o
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] :
works great! do you know how to change them? they look ugly!
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] FPChaim:
It should be somewere in res/drawables-mdpi in the framework or or cm7 theme... haven't investigated yet :rolleyes:
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] FPChaim:
I tried to make transparent status bar but it became buggy... any suggestions :confused:
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] :
can you add a version with ics like buttons? i tried doing it but bootloop
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] FPChaim:
Done :)

It only works with stocky cm7 theme :((because the files were changed in res/drawables-mdpi of SystemUI.apk)

Download here
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] :
did you test it? i think it will show ics buttons untill the theme changes it?

EDIT: Great job my friend!!! Works with every theme!!! Add it to the first post!

P.S.: In screenshot below, I am using the Ice9 theme! Keep up the good work!
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] FPChaim:

ps:I'm on cm10 and haven't tested yet
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] SacTappingUni:
So, this sounds interesting and appreciated, but what exactly is it? I couldn't see the screenshots. I understand that's it's some sort of themed softbuttons, that's all.
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] FPChaim:
What exactly you don't understand :confused:
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] FPChaim:
Updated :D

Changelog:

Version 4:the same as v3 + JELLY BEAN ANIMATIONS :victory:(I really fixed smooth spinners now, sorry :o:D)
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] FPChaim:
Please someone confirm if the jb animations are working or not...cause I don't remember how it looks and I always disabled the gb animations... :p
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] Christian Nothing:
This will work on gingersnap v2.2 :confused:
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] FPChaim:
Yes, but you will lose the default lg ui theme(no problems with themes applied by theme choser)
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] Christian Nothing:
But can you make this mod on gsnap framework the latest one ?

Please !!
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] neko95:
> pull the res/animation and res/drawables and push them to gs framework-res.. winrar 7zip is your friend
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] FPChaim:
And res/values for both jb anins and soft buttons :), refer to my "source" in the first post.

@neko98 Btw, can I release the gs version?:fingers-crossed:(sorry, only saw your post after pm...:cyclops:)
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] neko95:
> no need for soft buttons, this are enabled since 1.3 , go ahead
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] FPChaim:
Added ginger snap version! :) Changes are the same as v4, but fully compatible with gingersnap (please test it an let me know if it's working, make a backup first just in cause ;))
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] Ferdinoptimus:
HI brother

will this work on OxygeN rom?:confused:
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] Christian Nothing:
I flashed v4 for gingersnap and it worked. Thanks for your work now i have jb animation on my phone :D
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] FPChaim:
No :(

Thanks for the feedback :)
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] SacTappingUni:
So, is this mod just like my statusbar w/ softbutons and all,but with added animations? Because I am using a mod for nook color in which the softbuttons are re-ordered and reskinned in order to mimick the stock ICS/JB softkeys. They just don't have animations. Is this mod different?
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] FPChaim:
Yes, my mod has:status bar with softbuttons, jelly beam animations and smooth sppiners
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] zeratos:
Is there amod to make the softkeys appear as a separate bar as in ICS? I have been looking for that and I just can't find it, the cyanmobile ROM has them as a separate bar, that's why I'm asking.

Thanks in advance.
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] FPChaim:
No :(
[HTC One X] youvandal:
I was given a HOX international tegra 3 by a friend to fix but i am afraid i am hitting a wall. He upgraded to the galaxy s3 and is trying to sell this off. I don't think he tried rooting, unlocking the bootloader, flashing anything. He stated that it would force close while trying to open Settings.app and everything started force closing when he inserted his SIM. He gave it to me because i was into flashing nexus one roms and kernels when i had a nexus one.

The phone doesn't seem to power on or show any signs of life on the phone itself. If i plug it into a windows machine, it recognizes it as "APX" but no driver is found or installed. I have searched around and neither ADB, Fastboot or nvflash recognize the device. I tried installing various drivers to no avail. I have pointed it to "android debugging bridge" and "NVidia USB Bootrecovery driver for mobile devices". ADB, fastboot and nvflash still do not recognize the device. It is also not listed in Device manager. Universal Naked beta driver also did not do anything. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I have done some brief reading on the S-OFF thread and it seems like you guys needed a device in APX mode for further progression? Maybe we can help eachother out.

TIA
[HTC One X] vj4:
Message Xmoo about the APX mode he's in the S-off thread should have some ideas. As to getting it to boot i'm assuming you've tried holding power for ten seconds?
[HTC One X] Thunder07:
i would suggest calling yor friend over,

tying him to a chair and beating him until he remembers how he got it into APX,

ppl would kill for that device in APX.
[HTC One X] supendal:
Careful, if you achieve to boot it, you may never be able to get in apx mode again. First talk to some experienced people in s-off thread to see what we can squeeze out from apx mode.
[HTC One X] youvandal:
tried every single power + volume combination possible. Everything leads to APX mode. It is like a 4 second wait with power and volume down. if its just power it takes like 15 seconds for the pc to recognize. I msged xmoo and am awaiting his reply.
[HTC One X] dryan433:
Yes get over and talk with the team who are working to fully unlock this phone as they need apx mode and are dieing to have this mode one of them may even buy it from your friend in its current state as the crackers of this device are dieing to get this mode turned on on other devices if it's going to lead to an fully unlocked hox I sure am dreaming of the day this happens as I'm sure others are too so try talk with one of the guys over on other threads ask to see if anyone of them would like to buy it instead

atm do not I mean do not try to get the phone to boot normally until you have an answer of someone apx mode is needed and no one can get the hox in this mode :)
[HTC One X] KrisPerry:
It would appear that the device defaults to apx mode when it is bricked. The fact that it won't even boot to hboot indicates this
[HTC One X] co@ch:
When it's not listed in device manager, so where did it show up?
[HTC One X] KrisPerry:
How exactly do you know it is apx mode if it isn't in device manager
[HTC One X] youvandal:
In the bottom right of the taskbar, there is an icon that's normally used to safely eject a USB device. The only thing listed is APX. If i unplug the phone, the icon for apx disappears and vice versa.
[HTC One X] Evil-Dragon:
I think I know why you can't get nvflash to talk to it. Chances are you are probably using a version designed for Tegra 2. There is a Tegra 3 version floating around but I'm sure it was a Linux version so you'd need Linux to use it. I'm sure I had a link but I can't find it. Also you might need the secure boot key (sbk) to flash anything but even just getting nvflash to do a --sync is a start.

Can download Linux,Mac,Win versions, all including drivers, nvflash and other stuff (bootloader, recovery.img, ...)
[HTC One X] xmoo:
Hi,

Thank you for PM'ing me.

The phone gets noticed as APX, which is good. You need the Tegra3 Nvidia drivers. The problem is that you need to correct address in Nvflash. Cause if you talk with the wrong address, you could brick your phone. Since your friend kept it off for couple of weeks, I think that is the way it got into APX mode.

On old WM devices, when the battery drained and device had no power for a long time. The device would HardReset itself on the next power cycle it got. Maybe this is the same thing with the HOX. Battery is to empty, so it can't boot. Anyone who is willing to try the same thing? I use mine HOX everyday, so Can't leave mine powerless ;)

Screenshot :D
[HTC One X] kb0n:
Hehe, that was my first attempt after I read about APX on other devices that mentioned taking out the battery first. I let battery run out, booted few times into hboot etc until it didn't turn on anymore. Anyway, didn't work, as soon as I plugged in a USB cable, the phone had juice again and booted normally :/

If I remember correctly, there were also a few users who opened their HOX (think for wifi fix) and tried with disconnected battery -> no success
[HTC One X] xmoo:
Yes but there is a difference. When emptying battery and directly plug it in. I would say empty battery in couple of days and then leave it for couple of weeks. Just like this story.
[HTC One X] kb0n:
As I said, I didn't directly plug it in, but loaded hboot few times to drain the rest of the juice out. Then waited a few hours. Empty is empty, whether for 1 hour or 1 week.

Anyway, I gave up that attempt as I read about the guys who tried with disconnected battery. Can't get "emptier" than that ^^
[HTC One X] xmoo:
Don't you think phone will have a battery on board for HBOOT? Like PC's.
[HTC One X] kb0n:
Actually I don't, as far as I know there are no volatile memory in mobile phones ([edit]no crucial ones at least...I know i.e. RAM is volatile[/edit]), hence you don't need a battery to keep it alive, you just need one to run it.

Anyway, I'd be glad to be proven wrong ^^ Though it might be tough for some people, if they had to lay off their phones for weeks ^^
[HTC One X] bobsie41:
Don't know if it's relevant but, I have an Acer iconica a500 tab and it can be booted into apx mode imediatly after switching off.
[HTC One X] xmoo:
Same for the Transformer Prime. But won't work for us!
[HTC One X] bobsie41:
I'm completely out of my depth here :( but, in the a500 development section, there has been some excellent tools developed including an APX flash tool. Not sure if any pointers could be gained from these. :confused:

Obviously, an unlocked bootloader is needed.

Edit Second thoughts.... perhaps I should shut up, go away and leave things to those who aren't a complete noob like myself. :rolleyes:
[HTC One X] wineds:
maybe apx mode is triggered when the battery drops to a certain voltage like say 2 volts? Or when the battery drops to a certain voltage range?
[HTC One X] audioslim:
Not seen inside the Hox of course, but isnt somebody able to open it up and disconnect the battery one way or another, or has that already been tried?

If APX mode is related to dead batteries then total disconnect might be easy to acheive.

Slim
[HTC One X] wineds:
Complete battery disconnection has been tried i believe
[HTC One X] andyl66:
Hmmm overconfident Ginger strikes again.
[HTC One X] vincenzo697:
Can you ask your friend for full details about the device and if he done anything to it so we can get some clues for the APX mode? Hopefully we can help each other for us getting into APX mode which is a step closer to S-OFF and for you reviving your friends phone so he can sell it!!!
[HTC One X] ladyhaly:
Highly agree. Knowing the device's prior history is best in order to "diagnose" what's happening to it and what can be done to "treat" or fix it.
[HTC One X] youvandal:
He said he dropped it onto a linoleum floor and it still worked. He wiped it because he was using the S3. He said when he tried to go into settings post-wipe, it force closed the settings.app. After he inserted his sim, core fuctions (like the launcher im guessing) started force closing. He turned it off and kept it off until he handed it over to me. He doesn't root or unlock bootloaders as he is unfamiliar with command line. So i am guessing he had everything stock.

So i installed the devkit, toolkit and the image for ICS for tegra 3 devices. I uninstalled whatever generic APX driver i was using and then it automatically installed a new driver(im guessing from the install of the image of ICS for tegra 3 devices on the computer). The new driver shows the driver as "NVIDIA USB boot-recovery" but still shows the device as APX. Ill attach a screenshot showing everything regarding drivers. ADB and the old NVFLASH still do not see the device. The new nvflash from NVPACK folder on the root of the C: drive seems to detect the device. when i try to run "nvflash --sync" it just says "NVFlash started" but does not do anything(that i can see). Any ideas?
[HTC One X] co@ch:
Could you please specify:

How he did the wipe? Through recovery or OS?

While wiping, the SIM was or wasn't inserted?

Thanks! :)
[HTC One X] youvandal:
no sim, vol down and power then selected factory reset.
[HTC One X] co@ch:
Do you know something about battery level before wiping? Maybe SIM in or out doesn't change anything, but battery was to low to finish the full wipe. What could explain the FCs and later when battery was completely gone it doesn't start anymore, but comes up as APX device. :confused:
[HTC One X] youvandal:
He said that the phone started force closing after the drop and before the recovery. I am thinking it is a hardware issue now. It is still weird that the computer recognizes it as APX though. The battery was over 50% at time of recovery. Is the recommended level 30%?
[HTC One X] co@ch:
Indeed, very strange. Before I thought maybe it lost battery connection after the drop, but this has been tried already (pulling the battery for entering APX mode). No go!

Anyway I'll give it a try now: switching it off, pulling the sim and doing a factory reset. Let's see what happens... :D

Please wait while we find an agent to assist you...

You are currently at position number 1 in the queue.

All agents are currently busy. Please stand by.

You are currently at position number 1 in the queue.

An agent will be with you in a moment. Thank you for your patience.

You have been connected to Rob.

Rob: Hi Kevin, thank you for contacting HTC Support, I am looking in to your query now.

Rob: What HTC model or phone do you have?

Kevin Wilding: One x

Rob: Can you elaborate on what you are trying to do please. APX is used for rooted phones

Kevin Wilding: Yeah, im wanting to know how to get the phone into the APX mode

Kevin Wilding: I have a few various things im wanting to try in APX mode but can't access it

Kevin Wilding: I have done with all previous devices but can't find how to on this one

Rob: APX mode is for rooted phones, I do regret to say HTC is unable to assist you in doing this.

Kevin Wilding: Why? I have paid for my phone and want to use the features on the phone, one of them being APX mode

Rob: APX is not a mode on the phone by default. To access / add features such as this it requires you to root your phone, due to this HTC do not assist you in doing it.

Kevin Wilding: I don't need assistance in rooting, I have already done that, I just need to know how to enter in to APX?

Rob: I am sorry but I cannot assist you in this.

Kevin Wilding: Would you be happy if you bought a car but they took the bonnet catch off so you coudn't look under there and alter it? NO probably not, I have bought this phone to make it the way I want it, but I'm limited to this the way HTC have LOCKED the device down. Why can't you assist? and who could assist

Rob: No one at HTC can assist you in enabling APX mode. Unlocking the device voids the warranty and depending on how you did it, it would inform you that we would not assist you in any tasks beyond the boot loader. There are websites out there that can assist you with this, but nothing I'm allowed to recommend

Kevin Wilding: "No one at HTC can assist you in enabling APX mode?" I thought you said it wasn't APX MODE? Well thanks for nothing BOB sorry im mean Rob
[HTC One X] BenPope:
Thanks, Sherlock.
[HTC One X] wardy01:
interesting at all ??

Rob: APX mode is generally related to rooted devices.

Rob: Means the phone has been unlocked allowing settings to be enabled such as APX mode. You can also change the ROM and change CPU speeds etc when rooted

Rob: APX isn't something HTC enable by default. You have to unlock the phone and enable it,

Rob: APX mode is what you use to flash / repair a device
[HTC One X] Kickasskev:
Some type of hidden menu?
[HTC One X] wardy01:
yeh i tryed to play dumb and say what is apx and so forth ... he said he would help me but he has the chats recodred and cant give out the info...

geuss its enabled upon root...
[HTC One X] nikorette:
Have you posted in the soff thread.
[HTC One X] wineds:
Yes xmoo et all knows all about it...
[HTC One X] wph:
Couldn't it be that just like the EVO 3D you need to intentionally brick your device to gain S-Off because otherwise you can't get into eMMC mode (Evo) or APX mode (One X)?
[HTC One X] KrisPerry:
And how did you intentionally brick it
[HTC One X] wph:
I don't know how to do this, since you can't just pull the battery on the One X. The trick is that you somehow disrupt the hboot upgrading process, but how, that's beyond me. But my main point is, maybe there is no other way to enter APX mode than on a bricked device.
[HTC One X] Thunder07:
How about removing the USB cable?

Sent from my HTC One X
[HTC One X] kb0n:
So the recovery/reset finished successfully?

If not, this could be worth a try. Maybe let battery run out, such that it only has little to get into hboot. Run recovery and "hope" that battery runs out meanwhile. Anyone brave enough to try? ^^
[HTC One X] KrisPerry:
Until we have a method to flash from apx mode then it might not be advisable. You could be bricked for a while
[HTC One X] KrisPerry:
Holding power button for 10 secs supposedly simulates battery pull
[HTC One X] wardy01:
ok guys unsure if this is any help or any thing but i have my sbk number from my serial id. its my cpuid transferred into my sbk code any help at all ???
[HTC One X] ~Immo~:
My device has started showing "APX" in device manager.

Battery is almost full but having serious issues with it occasionally booting (long story ill make a post later when i have some spare time)
[HTC One X] schidddy:
hey m8 go to the s-off development thread in the general section, maybe u can help in there or also get helped with ur problem :)
[HTC One X] ~Immo~:
Cheers ^_^ but i dont feel that this has achieved anymore then what they already have so far in the S-OFF thread =/

Anyway quick run through what happened...

I had dropped my device and was having no end of force close problems the same as the OP, I tried every thing from erasing data to flashing different roms with no such luck. I ended up trying to flash a RUU which seemed to make matters worse in that i could not boot my device at the press of a button but it would sometimes boot in the endless hours i have spent trying to fix -.-

Last resort i decided to try replicate the drop with my new paper weight and so far it seems to have fixed my device?

I know people have had the HOX open and had a good look inside, but im starting to think its an internal method to get the device into APX?

Ill report back later if im getting the same errors, if its all fixed ill drop again to see if i can get back into APX....

*Edit* I forgot to add that pressing power and either vol +/- would make device show as APX in device manager
[HTC One X] co@ch:
And if you don't? What does it show?
[HTC One X] DarkMio:
The most ppl forget how APX should work.

Since the Tegra3 have its own communicationport, it isn't disable by the bootloader. Maybe (didn't read the engineerfiles) It's masked. I remember the old days of Nokia, where we had the black boxes and could flash anything we wanted to without a working phone, since its decreasing the costs for repairment when you can reflash a faulted memory.

APX here should be nearly easily accessable, but since we don't know anything how its masked, its a bit more complicated. You can't write hardware features, you can only disable them by production, and this would mean more costs for HTC for their own solution and really dump. Why not working with features, which are already implemented.

Also the bootloadwr have to detect a faulty Rom, which enables APX as not masked anymore. I'm still a fan of the idea to get some developers together which do these hardcore hardware fake stuff.

Just my 2 cents.
[HTC One X] co@ch:
What could be the reason that a phone after a drop starts with FCs and will be recognized as APX device? Till now we didn't find out yet how to get the phone to show up as an APX device, so I guess it's as you said kind of diasbled/masked. Means that the drop "enabled" the APX mode, but how this is possible? I could imagine a hardware damage after a drop, but how can this lead the device to show up as an APX device. So weird... :eek:
[HTC One X] co@ch:
Someone with an HOX in APX mode please try if these drivers are working?! :fingers-crossed:
[HTC One X] ~Immo~:
Cheers......

Phone seems a lot more stable now, still having issues with FC so its not right -.- ill try flash RUU later too see if i run into anything...
