[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] LiquidSolstice:
Finally got around to fixing both font zips. They were missing quite a few files, and now I'm completely sure I've hit every single font file, whether you're using Sense or AOSP, ICS or JB.

Enjoy guys.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Natodu:
Do we just flash these?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] LiquidSolstice:
Yes.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ManUtd07:
I'm getting a dropbox error when clicking the links. Anything I need to change on my end?

EDIT: Ended up trying again after a few minutes and links worked. Sorry for any confusion.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] suprano:
Thanks for this.Works well on my Xperia S with CM10.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AG206:
Thanks for the fonts. Love em. But its screws up 4.2 desk clock. Any way around this that you know of?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] LiquidSolstice:
Sadly, 4.2 and to an extent, Sense JB don't like having their fonts swapped out.

For 4.2 GAPPS (and that new condensed Roboto aesthetic), when I have time I'll look through the clock apk and see what font files it references. Once I know that, it should be fairly straightforward. There's also the shotgun approach of replacing every single system font.

It's also possible that the font itself is embedded in the APK file itself. That's not uncommon, but I would be very surprised if Google did that.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AG206:
I'm assuming there's nothing to take out of the font zip so it doesn't talk to the clock, correct? It goes from app to system font not the other way?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AG206:
Used this thread to get is almost right.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1847203

Attached I have what it looks like after flashing your zip then what it looks like after I replaced most of the stock fonts back.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] LiquidSolstice:
I'm not entirely sure why that's happening. I've only tested my zips on 4.1.2 at highest. The 4.2 apps are out of my control. I'm pretty sure the 4.2 Clock has a font file embedded in it. If I were you, I would reinstall just that apk (or reflash) and wipe the clock data. You should be just fine.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AG206:
I'll give it a shot.

Also not really asking for it fixed just letting you know what I'm finding in hopes it helps. having this font isn't vital to my day to day use, its just nice to look at. :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] il Duce:
looks like HTC changed/added/deleted a BUNCH of fonts for JBsense from ICSsense :(

Thank you! Works great on CM10 12/04!

Thank you for Helvetica Roman. I was searching a long time for this font! You are awesome.

Working on CM10 Jelly Bean. Orgasm for eyes :)

guys, my device showing square box at the end of certain text - helvetica roman

appreciate it if someone can fix it, thanks
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] hevyrockerdk:
Surprised I haven't found this sooner, thanks for this! Gonna try it out now.

A request, if I may, though. Back in my OG EVO days, I used to rock the Ubuntu font. I was wondering (if you haven't already put it on the to-do list) if you could put a package up with that font?

I'm a Samsung S3 user so I wanted to ask before flashing anything. Will this work on my phone or is it specifically designed to be flashed on HTC and will brick my device if flashed?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scottspa74:
Can't answer you specifically, but I don't see how it could brick. The meta-inf file probably won't work for your device, but if you open the zip, extract the files and put them I'm their respective locations with proper permissions should work. Nandbackup first.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mstrmscn:
Sweet, thanks!

I'm using Segoe WP7 without issue on MeanBean 2.5...maybe it's actually broken and I don't know it...? But seems ok to me.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] screwyluie:
so i'm posting this in the accessories because you guys are the target audience for this mod.

so i took my stock battery case and used some clear plastidip in a rattle can to give it 4 coats and here is the result.

for give the dust, the case was still tacky when i took the pictures and I couldn't clean it yet, but i really wanted to get pictures and post them rather then wait for it to dry :p

as you can see it adds virtually nothing to the thickness, the badges and color are still very clear. it's textured on purpose, i put the last coat on Very heavy so it would orange peel and increase texture/grip.

the phone still looks great, but has tons of grip now, and this shouldn't affect any cases, accessories, etc.

if you're not familiar with plastidip, it's essentially plastic in a can. the soft almost rubbery kind of plastic you often find on the grips of hand tools. it won't hurt the case, and if you get tired of it you can just peel it off, very easy.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] kuratsu:
Very cool. Would give an extra bit of grip if you prefer your phone caseless.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Popenda:
Plastidip Marble white S3

That looks very cool and probably gives a nice grip. Awesome job.:D

i'm considering this for my International Marble white S3 as i prefer my device caseless and using a leather pull tab.

How much time did you let the coating dry?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] VikingoRMCF:
LOL, I just did the same thing today, I'll post pics in the morning.

Used The black color on my white phone.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] VikingoRMCF:
In black....

A little wet

Still drying

Almost done

* 101% Madridista × RMCF *
[Galaxy S III Accessories] screwyluie:
Its awesome grip.

I let each coat dry 30mins. I let the final coat dry over night but the can says 4 hours. I put it in front of a fan after the last coat and was able to handle and take pictures after an hour.

Hey that black looks good, i thought about using a color but I'm going to rock clear for a bit first. I think that's what's so awesome about doing this, when you get board you just peel it off and spray it with a new color
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Cruzin95:
I'm guessing it's going to peel off fairly quickly with use.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Popenda:
Black or Clear plastidip

Well if it sticks well on the battery door, it shouldn't be a problem with the progress you made. ;)

This black looks sexy and will fit the new black S3 when it arrives, although my choice is the white battery door, then spray it with clear plastidip just like yours, as i'm am not going to change the color that my phone is. :cool:

i might as well order an extra original battery door, just in case of i want to switch or something else.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] j76ms:
Guys this looks great! Can you please keep us updated on how it wears? I am curious to see if it rubs off with normal use. I like my phone best without a case but it is extremely slippery. Thanks for posting pics!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Stupifier:
I got a question about this....does the added grip this gives to the phone cause issues? I'm wondering if it makes it difficult to pull out of your pocket cause of the grip factor to the case.....or is it difficult to put back in pocket?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] 1slow4G:
Plasti dip is not sticky/grippy. It has a nice matte finish

Sent from my Galaxy S3 using neighbors wifi :P
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Lukengruven:
What is the life?

So how long was the wear life? did the coating peel off with handling? let us know!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] moto211:
I wonder if this would add grip to my UAG case?

Sent from my SGH-T999
[Galaxy S III Accessories] themadproducer:
Moto211,

It's your lucky day for getting a great answer to your question. (sorry, I know it sounds pompus ;)) But I have and love my UAG case. I almost used plastidip on it....especially knowing that it can simply be peeled off at any time after it dries. I used the plastidip on a DIY mod that I performed on my desktop charging cradle. It took a bit of learning to get the desired finish. I peeled it off 2 times before I was satisfied. (each round was 5 coats)

I can say that it definitely adds grip to slippery plastic. (polycarbonate etc) The problem will likely be the eventual edge peeling of the plastidip. In and out of one's pocket will cause this.

I ended up using Egrips. Very pricey and difficult to cut into position. I made sure none of the corners were sharp (like a square) I rounded them off otherwise their edge would catch and peel just like plastidip. (the photo may not show my latest Egrips work) Anyway, the grip and feel of Egrips is to die for. If kinda feels like a JuJube. It grips like magic to many surfaces like car dash or even pant legs yet it's not sticky. It's much better than PlastiDip in many respects.

When I use my UAG one handed...it no longer feels like it will EVER slide off. Best off all, it still slips in and out of my pocket easily. BONUS...it helps the UAG fit better into my CraigsDock. (that's another story)

The pic below is my blue UAG with Black Egrips. I have a Black UAG with black Egrips that looks even better.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] screwyluie:
Not with handling no, but my jeans pocket peeled it off nicely, so I coated it again and kept it in my soft pockets like my shirt and it lasted all month.

The largest down fall is that the phone case is smooth, for anything that is non adhesive (like plastidip) that means it will peel off. If you were to put it on a rough surface it would be much better.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Androideka5:
Considering that you're adding another layer in between the brains and air and the fact that my phone overheats extremely easily, will this make my phone heat up any more?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] screwyluie:
In theory yeah, but so would any case. It'll be ok
[Galaxy S III Accessories] MiG8GT:
For those who are wondering about the durability of plasti dip, a ton of people use this on their vehicles that with stand daily abuse from rain, ice, snow, cold and heat. It's a nice way to give a new look or to protect!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] alexgarrett:
I plasti dip the wheels on my Integra and they hold up fine. My autocross civic gets the whole body dipped in a different color every spring and I pressure wash it with no issues, but dragging it in and out of a pocket would definitely destroy it.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] derrtydunk:
I love the look of your case with Egrips on it. I wanna do it to my white one. Unfortunately I'm broke at the moment lol
[Galaxy S III Accessories] themadproducer:
I keep realizing that I have yet to drop my S3 because of the combination of the shape of UAG with the grip of Egrips. Especially one handed operation. Sucks being broke. The also have a clear Egrips...not sure if they have white?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Rocklee99:
Everytime I try to set cellular band to pcs 1900mhz, my phone restarts, why?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jspsuperman:
try downloading a app called lte onoff htc thunderbolt, it works perfectly for changing the radio bands
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Emerl:
It would still take him to the same place to try to change the radio bands.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jspsuperman:
I know that but it sure beats goin into the dialer and inputing all that crap
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] brandonmaze:
Pretty sure that you shouldn't mess with these.

I remember reading on here from on of the mods or developers that doing this prevents the phone from automatically switching between the different bands and the only way to restore the auto switch functionality was to ruu.

APatte111: could you upload your 32 height 28 landscape framework-res for v4 rom ?

Great guide.

If you dont want to waste time uploading....its all good anyway mate :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vomer:
This is not the mods thread :rolleyes:

Great job bud!

Also, remember guys - if you make a MiNCO Mod - share with other's in the MiNCO Plus+ Thread. Chances are someone else would want it too ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] APatte111:
This framework-res.apk is in place in several of the mods in the MiNCO Plus+ mods and enhancements thread that vomer began... Just download one of the mods and extract the framework-res.apk from one of the .zip files... Probably the easiest way to get it... ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bs android:
OK sorry for asking OP if that annoys you

Nice APatte, I saw it now, downloaded and tried your framework with vomers standard white for minco rom. Got the failure in back button so guess I have to wait till I get home to a computer to fix it. Thanks for the guide anyway, love different and smaller navbars.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] APatte111:
Yeah, if by "failure" you mean the larger back key then that is being caused by the un-edited navigation_bar.xml file which is located in SystemUI.apk>res>layout... You need to delete the two lines mentioned above, re-compile the SystemUI.apk and everything should be golden. Let me know if it doesn't work and I will help ya... Good Luck

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] angelossssss:
i cant seem to find the "@drawable/ic_sysbar_back" & "@drawable/ic_sysbar_back_land" in the navigation_bar.xml file. Any help please? I must mention that i am on AndroidME CM10 1.7.0 and took both files from the cwm zip.

Only repeating line i can find is "@drawable/ic_sysbar_lights_out_dot_large" . Dont know if it is the same.

I ve done some android developing in the past. every linear_layout represents a button, right?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] APatte111:
Can you upload the navigation_bar.xml file for me so I could have a look...

*** Nice signature by the way *** LOL
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] angelossssss:

---------- Post added at 08:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:17 PM ----------

actually nevermind that... i just flashed the cwm without the systemui.apk and it seems to be working fine. lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] APatte111:
I was going to say, it looks like they have already removed that from the navigation_bar.xml file... The description of the ROM shows that Nav Bar Options are included... You could change the DPI size, compile and see if the back button is larger (which is what deleting those two lines fix)... If it's not (which you stated it's working) then skip that step....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] angelossssss:
y i only compiled the framework-res.apk but i thing now my phone became a little laggy. especially when swipping between screens and opening apps.

i'll check it out if i did anything wrong.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] APatte111:
Check in the ROM and see if there is already a built in option to change the nav bar DPI size... if not, make the changes to the dimens.XML file and then recompile/replace the .apk and re-flash... that should work and everything should be normal...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] angelossssss:
unfortunately there is not. it only has options to change the buttons order.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] APatte111:
OK, so just change the size and then compile... place back into .zip file and reflash.... I recommend wiping the cache and dalvik cache before flashing...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] angelossssss:
Everything is fine :)

thanks for your time and for this great guide! :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yellowdie:
APatte, that is an awesome guide! Thank you! I just did my first change. :) I hit the Thanks button on every single one of your posts in this thread. lol

Do you have a guide like this for changing the button function/icon/color? I'd love to get rid of my Recents button and make it Menu (with a long press to Recents). But so far I've only seen AOKP roms be able to do that by default. Thoughts?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] APatte111:
I don't have a guide prepared for that... Should be possible on any Jelly Bean based rom... Just have some .png images to change and a few strings of code to change to allow the device to know what to do when the button is pressed... I have been asked to make a mod like this for the rom I currently use/mod (MiNCO V4) but I haven't gotten around to it... Been really busy lately... Thanks for the support and congrats on your first mod... Keep it up!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yellowdie:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yellowdie:
Well, I figured out that it works better when you actually include the framework-res.apk inside the file you're flashing. Psh. Small details. :P

So this guide worked well for me. I also followed this thread to learn more about the SystemUI: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1743979.

The changes is in framework-res.apk itself.

I have removed the System Variables from PATH related to android sdk. And i also deleted the aapt.exe from C:\android-sdk\platform-tools, to no avail. Any suggestions?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mach3.2:
Happened to me too, you need to download Java JDK and install it, before it starts to work properly.

What Mach3.2 said and also make sure and open the command prompt in the JBapktools folder itself by shift+right clicking inside the folder, as this is where the files will be located... Good Luck...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] opethrocks:
Thats how i did it, i followed all instructions, but still no go. I think there's a problem with my computer, it says java is not a recognized command. So I tried "apktool if framework-res.apk", I saw that on another guide, but still java not a recognized command. I'm at a loss, I'm just getting started with adb and I reeeaaallyyy wanna make my own mods, so I can stop relying on other people
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] APatte111:
I'll do some digging when I get home and see if I can replicate the problem... Did you install the android SDK and java?

What OS are you running on your computer?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] opethrocks:
I'm running windows 7 64-bit. I have android SDK installed and I'm pretty sure I have java installed, I get updates for java so I guess its installed. But I did remove the system variables, and I removed aapt.exe from android-SDK/platform-tools. So I tried Shift-right click inside apktools folder and click open command prompt here, because there's an aapt.exe here, and I still get the java error. I really appreciate the help
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mach3.2:
You need to download java JDK like I said above. Just Google and click the oracle link.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] APatte111:
Yeah, Java and Java JDK are different things... Lol... Try installing Java JDK and go from there...

Much appreciated, my noobness is showing lol. I hate having to ask questions like this, but I had no idea about java JDK
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] APatte111:
Sounds like you got it working... Good Job...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] opethrocks:
Yup i got it going, even figured out how to sign .apk's, like a boss. Works perfectly since i installed the java JDK, thanks to you and all the helpful people here
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] APatte111:
I was asked this after my first mod.... Its a hell of a feeling huh?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yellowdie:
lol. Sure is!! But this was just a gateway drug for me. I got my feet wet from this thread and have since moved into making my own ROM now. LOL. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] APatte111:
Great!!! If you need some mods, let me know...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yellowdie:
Will do! It'll be awhile before this actually gets off the ground, but my ultimate goal is to have total customization like in AOKP. :) But we'll see if I can actually do that. lol

I cant figure out how to make a flashable zip, everytime i try to flash in recovery it says its bad. I tried to push via adb but then it wont boot. I thought adb would work for sure
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] APatte111:
I wouldn't... just download one of the .zip files I have uploaded and place the framework-res.apk under framework and SystemUI.apk under app... then flash using CWM... you can download one of my .zip files from the MiNCO mods thread....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] opethrocks:
thanks again dude

Edit: got it working, like a bauce!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] APatte111:
Anytime... let me know if it works... What ROM are you using?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] opethrocks:
Yea I got it working, had to extract the update.script and update.binary for a nav bar mod for my ROM. But I made the zip and zipped it with root explorer and it flashed like a champ. I dunno exactly what it was, but the guide I used initially didn't say anything about an update.binary. I'm on rasbean BTW, when I noticed all your mods were for Minco, I used a zip by lichti1901 to make my own zip. I guess it was the lack of an update.binary in my zip that caused all the trouble
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] APatte111:
Yeah, I used one of my MiNCO .zip files to do some mods on my G-Note as well... as long as its J.B based it should work... I'm glad you got it... Good Job bud...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] opethrocks:
Preeeciate it man. Oh really? So the updater-script and update-binary aren't device specific? As long as its JB? That's good to know
