how to change the battery icon in this ROM? i want to use the stock one because it puts me out of temper when looking how fast the percentage decreases.. i use the uot kitchen but failed to flash, it gives me error.. do you have any idea how to do it?

Need to flash stock battery icon

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] emmi3:
You can probably find a similar one and apply it in rom toolbox.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] scout1089:
okey thank you,i will give it a try.. :)

edited: i tried applying in rom tool box pro, no luck, the battery icon is still the same.. :(

any more suggestions?
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] emmi3:
Should work.. at least it worked for me..
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Cooler89:
it didn't work neither for me...
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] emmi3:
*It didn't work for me either

or:

For me neither/Neither for me
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Cooler89:
lol! thank you...my english is really bad :o
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] scout1089:
really? if so, how? how did you do it? any screenshots? :D it didn't work for me because this rom is aroma based on installation.. :)

by the way here's what i did.. went to uot kitchen again, i uploaded com.htc.resources.apk, SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk then i chose the battery icon i wanted then submit work to kitchen.. i copied the update-binary-installer of this ROM located in meta-inf\com\google\android and renamed it to update-binary, after downloading the uot zip, i opened the zip file using 7-zip app (open archieve) not extracted.. i navigated again to meta-inf\com\google\android inside the uot zip file and placed(drag) the update-binary file i just recently renamed replacing the uot's update-binary one.. then reboot to recovery, flash the zip.. tada! battery icon replaced! :) :highfive:

big thanks to explorerman for pointing me this out.. thank you.. :) :good:
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] emmi3:

Hey Akya this is just a suggestion: Could you include SuperSU in the next version instead of Superuser ? IMO it works better on the HTC. Explorer. Superuser crashes a lot, especially when trying to edit and delete Superuser rights.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akya22:
This has been implemented already..

Also about the other things, I will see if I can offer choices during installation (default style battery indicators, CRT anim. )
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akashpatel:
Also there is some problem in or kernel. It causes random reboots. Also try to fix that please......

Almost done with 1.6.. Most probably will be up by tomorrow.. I haven't changed the base though.. that's just incredible amount of work and I don't have that much time.. :cowboy:
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] abhiparmar92:
At least we can expect change log for build 1.6....
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akya22:
v 1.6 is out !

Well here is an update to NExtGen.. I am still alive and kicking.. :D NExtGen is not discontinued as the ROM listing thread might have shown.

I haven't changed base in this version. It's still based on Europe. I have made lots of changes though. Not particularly adding any new functionality. Well it has pretty much all GB can offer.. but rather fixing things and adding more options for users. Here is the changelog

Changelog -

- Removed Teal green theme. Blue theme is now default theme.

- Removed Solid Explorer, DSP Manager and extra kernels.

- Added more options while installing. You can choose if you want CRT animation and ad blocking or not.

- Replaced GTalk with Hangouts, updated all apps to latest version.

- Added Google authenticator and Dropbox to app choices.

- New: Boot animation.

- Removed branding from lock-ring. Now using default lock-ring.

- All Google apps are now installed in /data/app-system. Hence freeing up lots of space on /system.

- Removed Superuser and added SuperSU.

- Lots of minor changes related to theme.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Deic:
Your ROM is perfect, good work bro, I liked old lock ring :(...

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akya22:
I know.. I did too.. But kinda felt like it was a bit more aggressive branding and showing of ROM's name.. I remember someone complaining about it in the past..

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akya22:
Trying something atm.. Lets see if it works..

Edit: - HELL YEAH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It worked !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now let me do some testing and if everything else is ok, I will release a small patch......

Edit 2: -

1. Devanagari Patch:

This is for users who want support for Hindi/Marathi/Tamil etc (Indian languages). Others don't need this patch.

This patch is applicable on v1.6. Just keep the zip file on your sdcard and flash through recovery. That's it !

Here are some screenshots -

Also if you use SwiftKey, Download Hindi language from its settings menu. Please note that this ROM does not include SwiftKey. I am just giving an example

Patch also added in 2nd post of the thread.

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akya22:
That's unnecessary. Since ROMs include their own kernels, boot is overwritten during each installation.

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] prabhat228:
go to contacts...at top select "sim contacts". it should come.

usually it stops after 5-6 minutes. If not, just go to sync and cancel it. After that, re-start the sync. It should solve. Else wait for experts to comment upon :)
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] samir7399:
Thanks for the fantastic upgrade to 1.6

Everything running fine and smooth although the improvements mentioned for battery and internet do not seem visible. Maybe I do not know how to check for them

One suggestion is: Since the branding on the lock ring is removed the ring looks very "thick"...can the width be decreased? or is this something that android controls?
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] akya22:
Glad to see you solved them yourself.. Sometimes a lil bit playing around with the settings is all needed.. Also about your sig, remove the code tags around.. Copy paste the code directly and save it..

This is most probably related to your internet connection or some other minor problem.. Dig deeper..

Where did I mention battery and internet connection improvements in 1.6? and yeah that's how the default lock ring looks like

battery drain issue

I am facing battery drainage issue...dialer takes up around 45% battery.....batt is properly calibrated. Those decreasing numbers at notification bar really worries me :/ I am using JuiceDefender Ultimate also...

my questions are :

1. Can u do something for this issue ?

2. CM9 [ics] roms also hv this same problem or like real ics upgrade, they save battery ?

3. Can i use some different MAh battery for my explorer ?

:)
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] shortyoko:
Well the biggest battery that I saw on e-bay was 1500, which is........ stupid, our stock is 1230, so there will be pretty much no difference.

My advice is to get a log from better battery stats and paste it here. And what do you call draining, because when I gave my explorer to my gf to use it for a week, she was going to kill me

. So anyway you shouldn't have big expectations for battery life, from 1230 mAH battery.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] prabhat228:
haha, thanks for early response. Will post the log asap.

Actually m comparing my battery drain with respect to the battery life I had with stock rom. It used to last like 24 hrs (with internet ON).

Will post the log asap though :good:

Well from what I'm seeing in this logs, (which is possible to be 100% wrong) your signal is not very good (No or Unknown Signal (): 4 h 14 m 46 s (15286 s) Ratio: 97.4%) , leave to stay till tomorrow, I mean don't uninstall the app till tomorrow, and give one more log till it will gatter more info in the logs. But basically this looks clean from my point of view, just in case give one more tomorrow, maybe it'll show something.

About the signal, Akya should say is this possible to be from the kernel or not.

And now after I typed this poem, it's time to hear from somebody more knowing than me, let's hope this happens.

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] spoutnik000:
'Restart' menu customization

Hi,

First thank you for this great ROM. I'm using it for some time and never had any major issue. Very stable and responsive.

Now here is my point:

I'm in the process of reusing a Pico for my kid and I'm kind of hardening it so my kid won't be able to do anything wrong on it.

By wrong I mean "mess with the system and configurations"... I don't want to spend time every week reinstalling it!

And one thing that is nicely integrated in your ROM is the ability to reboot to Bootloader or Recovery directly from the Power Options > Restart menu. This is nice, but I really don't want my kid to be able to reboot to recovery... oh my!!

And this is why I have one feature request, and one workaround.

*** Feature Request ***

Just the same as in CM roms, would it be possible to have a way in the System Settings to customize the "Restart" menu and choose to have or not have some of the items?

In my case, I would only keep for instance: "Normal" and "Hot restart". Or just "Normal".

*** Workaround ***

Since I cannot really wait your next release ( :) ), I messed around the ROM files and I deodexed/reodexed the proper jar file (android.policy.jar) and modified the code to keep only the "Normal" restart.

By the way, by keeping only 1 item, I don't get to a sub-menu anymore and I simply reboot when clicking on "Restart". That's ok.

If someone is interested by this modified 'android.policy.jar' file (for NExtGen 1.6 ONLY) that must replace the existing '/system/framework/android.policy.jar' one, I can attach it in some next post.

But I won't if there is no request because this may be dangerous if copied on different ROM version.

But of course the feature request is more important because it would avoid messing with your ROM!

Please revert back to me (I mean all of us interested by my use case) about this customization.

Thks

spoutnik
