Hi,

Thanks for letting me know that the mod worked, i had had a complaint that it didn't show the percentage, but i think the guy must have had a custom theme applied.

Thanks again

Corey

Your welcome, glad you like the mod.

I assume that a new version will need to be built for PA 2.1 now that it is out? I tried the 1.9.. version and it looked really funny on 2.1. The other notification icons got very tiny.

Thanks for the great work.

Hi all,

I just wanted to let you know that i have made the Paranoid 2.1.1 Battery mods, and i have added them to the Second post.

Could someone let me know if the battery mods work properly, as i havent had time to test them yet.

Hi all,

I have been trying out new ways to make the battery mods, and i have got 3 ways, but i was wondering what you guys thought was best, the ways are:

The first way is the way I am doing now, where I have to make a new battery mod for each new version of rom that comes out, and each rom has to have different mods.

The second way, this way is only for the paranoid rom, as it requires the t mobile theme chooser engine.

What I was thinking was that I could take the stock system theme, and then make a custom theme, and create it with the battery icons that currently have to be flashed i cwm.

This way, all you have to do to add the battery mods, is apply a theme on the theme chooser, and this way will also not have to be updated each time a new version of the rom comes out.

The rest of the theme, apart from the battery icons, would be just the same as the system theme, so it would have exactly the same ui as if you flashed the current battery mods thru cwm recovery.

The third way is to make universal battery mods.

This way, I make each battery mod, so it just replaces the png images, instead of the whole systemui.apk, and i also make one "base" cwm zip for each rom. the benefits of this way are:

The battery mods should work on any rom which already has percentage battery icons, as the rom should already have the correct xml files.

When a new version of the rom is released, i only have to make one "base" cwm zip, instead of one for each battery mod, and you would just flash that zip in to recovery, then flash any of the universal battery mods.

I would not have to update the battery mods each time a rom update us released, instead I would just have to update the one base cwm zip.

Please could you guys tell me which way you think is best.

Thanks in advance

Cheers

Corey

I think the second way is the best and easiest to maintain, and hey maybe you can even make a theme ;D

Is there any specific way to delete the odex file, or can I do it from Root Explorer? (Before you ask, yes, my tablet is rooted ;))
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Rapscallion16:
Would it be possible for you to make a stock battery with percentage for Stock ROM, like the one for Paranoid Android? I'd love that. Also, could you offer just plain stock battery ZIP in case we want to go back. Thanks! :D
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] fishingfon:
Hi,

I was making them the second way, but now my pc has packed it, and my hard drive has corrupted, so i have lost all I had done.

I now have to install a new hdd (which is a pain in the neck in my laptop lol) and reinstall windows and ubunto.

So I won't be able to make any mods for a week or so :-\.

Glad you like the mods.

Cheers

Corey

Hi,

Yes you just do it with root explorer (I use rom toolbox, as i kept getting errors with es file explorer).

When I get my pc working again, I can make the mods so they would automatically delete the odex file when you flash them, but my pc is not working at the moment, so that won't be for a week or so.

Hi,

Yes I will do both the things you said, but they will have to wait till I get my pc working again, as i said above.

missing buttons

I've using paraniod v2.13. I flashed CWM-ZIP-N7--PARANOIDANDROID-v2.1.1--5-color-smooth--battery-mod.zip in CWM and when I rebooted, my menu buttons are gone (using tablet UI). When I went back to the stock UI the menu buttons are there. Am I missing some step before install the zip file?
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] fishingfon:
Hi,

I am not sure why they r not working for you.

Can you try setting the mode to "tablet ui (small), and setting the dpi to stock, also try flashing the digital mod (altho I cant see how that would make any difference) as that is the same mod I am using.

When I get my pc working again, I will update theses mods (either to a cm theme version, or a universal version)

Here is the screen

Cheers

Corey
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] fishingfon:
Hi,

The is two ways to revert back to stock.

Before you flash the mod, you can use root explorer and make a copy of systemUI.apk, you can just make a copy of it and leave it in System/app, but you would need to rename it so it has the file extension of ".bak" so that is doesn't get confused as being a functioning app (example: systemUI.bak).

Or you can just dirty flash the paranoid rom, but if you do that then any other mods/kernels ect will also get overwritten.

When I get my pc working again in the next couple of days, I will create a cwm zip that will restore it to stock.

Cheers

Corey
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] fishingfon:
Hi,

I answered your first problem on a post I made above.

And i applied this theme to get all the icons and clocks ect to go green:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.cerqueira.theme.Green

Although you can also change the colors by editing some png images and changing some strings and editing some xml and smali files in framework-res.apk and systemUI.apk.

Hope this helps

Hello,

You can either get the original SystemUI.apk and SystemUI.odex from 4.1.1 and push them to /system/app, or you could forget the OTA and just install th odexed version of this romhttp://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1929270.

Thanks for the quick reply. I prefer not to install "custom" ROM (I assume the deodexed version falls under this category?). Do you know where can I get the SystemUI.apk and SystemUI.odex for 4.1.1?

Unfortunately my 2nd Nexus is already on 4.1.2, so I can't just pull those two files from there. The 1st Nexus is on 4.1.1, but have the modded battery icon.

---------- Post added at 09:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:35 AM ----------

Just quick update: once the SYstemUI.apk is modified, there is NO OTHER WAY to revert back to the non-modded battery icon EXCEPT replacing the SystemUI.apk.

I have tried installing the 4.1.2 via ADB, using edited OTA, etc. and it fails all the time..worse.. it cause UI Error and nothing is shown on my top bar. I now have to restore back to stock and lose all my config.

Just a heads up for those who wants install the battery mod...

Hi,

i have just finished making my "Universal" battery mods, which will work on 2.2, all you have to do before flashing them is flash a "BASE" Zip in CWM, and then you can flash any of the univeral battery mods.

i will try and upload them all today.

Hi,

if you look at the change log of 4.1.2, the isnt any UI changes, it just adds rotation , and some bug fixs, so it doesnt look like google changed the systemui.apk, so no it shouldnt compramise any of the features.

i will make some mods for 4.1.2 anyway tho, but could someone please send me the SystemUI.apk from 4.1.2, as i am running paranoid at the moment, and i cant find a stock 4.1.2 rom i ccan extract it from.

Hi,

yes if you make any changes to the rom, even if you edit a single file, the ota update will probaly fail, i will try and make a restore zip later today/tomorrow. but you can just pull the stock systemui.apk from a stock rom, and copy it to system/app.

[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] iamelton:
applied the 5-colour-augmented one and works fine..

one question though.. previously its mentioned that for odexed stock rom, its better to remove SystemUI.odex file..

since the instructions in the first post has been updated and theres no mentioning of the odex file, i wanna know if the recommendation still applies..

(i know it probably works to just leave the file there, however, being a purist, i would really like to remove it if its of no use.. :) )
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] glimmling:
I think, you will need the odex file, because there's no classes.dex inside the stock modded SystemUI.apk.

Yes, you are right.

I flashed CWM, installed the universal mod without error and then flashed back to TWRP recovery.

Now it is working.

Hi,

Yes you can just remove the odex file,

I will update the first post with instructions for odex roms tomorrow

[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] iamelton:
thx for the reply..

thx..

i deleted the odex file and rebooted, and lost the status bar, wallpaper, soft buttons (and maybe other things that i didnt notice)..

had to restore the odex file from my backup and reboot to fix..

thus glimmling is right, the odex file is needed.. :D

but then, this mod will not work in de-odexed roms, will it? (at this point the classes.dex file seemed to be left out accidentally..)

btw, there seems to be a backup for the mod in my /sdcard/UniversalFlasher/ folder..

but after checking the log, the backup of SystemUI.apk was done AFTER applying the change to it, and there was no backup of build.prop which was also changed..

thus what is this backup used for then?
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] formicae:
I can confirm that TWRP (2.3.0) will throw an error and claim to restore the stock SystemUI, however once I booted the device the battery mod was in place. Two-colour augmented.

Also I flashed withOUT deleting my odex file (more of an oversight on my part, not on purpose) and all is well.

Thanks again Corey!

I think I might have forgotten to copy the class.dex file to the systemui.apk after I compiled it, I will make a fixed one next time I am on my pc.

I will also test that on my Nexus 7 when I get a chance, and see why that's happening.

For the moment tho, if you are on stock, don't delete the odex file if you flash the mod.

png location

Hi all,

I am new to the Nexus 7 threads. I already decompiled (apktool) the SystemUI.apk on all of my Galaxy Nexus ROM's and added different battery png's and re-built the SystemUI.apk. Now also tried on Nexus 7 BB ROM but did not succeed.

In which location are the png's to place and is there any requirement for the pixel size? I always get FC's and never got any on the Galaxy Nexus. Something else to consider which I might have forgotten?

Thanks and nice day
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] fishingfon:
Hi,

I am at someone's house for lunch right now, and I haven't got my pc.

But when I get home later today, I will send you some links and instructions on how to do it for the nexus 7.

But putting the battery images in the wrong place ect won't cause force closes, it would just make the battery icon in the status bar not show up.

But one qustion,

Are you flashing the SystemUI.apk in a cwm zip? Or just copying it with a root explorer?.

If you are using a root explorer, you need to set the file permissions to rw-r--r--

If it isn't set to that, it will cause force closes like your having.

If that isn't the problem, I will send some more details later.

Cheers Corey
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] GeyerA:
png's

Hey Corey,

thanks for the speedy answer.

No, I am doing the same I did on my Galaxy. I de-compile (./apktool if framework-res.apk ; ./apktool d SystemUI.apk System) change the xml's for the percentage, add the png's in the folders where I found battery icons, and re-compile (./apktool b System System.apk).

I open the System.apk and copy manually the files to the original SystemUI.apk which were previously added. Then I push it to the /system/app/ folder via adb.

Thanks :)
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] fishingfon:
Hi,

Can I ask which files it is you are copying over to the backup.apk?.

Did u check your SystemUI.apk had the right file permissions like I said? as that can sometimes happen when u use adb aswell.

the way I do it is as follows:

make a backup of the systemui.apk and name it "Backup.apk" (this just makes it easier for me to explain here, but it is not required :P)

Decompile the apk (apktool d systemui.apk)

Copy png's to the drawable-hdpi and drawable-sw720dp-hdpi folders

Edit the 2 xml files

Recompile the apk (apktool b systemui almostdone.apk)

Open the almostdone.apk and the backup.apk with 7zip

from the almostdone.apk I copy the: "Res" Folder, AndroidManifest.xml, and resources.arsc to the backup.apk and save it

then I rename the backup.apk to SystemUI.apk

And I then put the apk in a cwm zip, and flash in recovery.

if the above doesn't work for you, then try downloading one of my "Base" zips from the first post, and opening it with 7zip, delete the apk that Is already in it, and replace it with yours, as that is exactly the same way I do it then, and that will also set the correct file permissions for it.

Let me know how you get on.

Cheers

Corey
