Introduction:

We all know that Android from ICS+ provides big beautiful contact images that are visible, obviously when someone calls us...

While all this is good... I noticed multiple ROM's extending the black screen below the animation over the image to display the subtle call accept/reject animation. And now that's not a good thing... bear with me, "personal opinion"... So here is a guide to get rid of this...

Preview:

Still don't understand what I mean? Have you seen the below happening...?

Yes that's exactly what I mean... The right image shows what happens... The left is the solved image...

So here goes...

I AM TOO LAZY:

I've got you covered... Flash this ZIP.

Its a fully transparent Dialer mod. It was tested on CM10 and should work on any ROM in theory. ;)

PS: Don't forget to mount /system in recovery... Just in case.!

Requirements:

Java Development Kit

APKTool

AAPT

Notepad++

A Brain [Necessary]

Android SDK [Not Necessary]

Steps:

Done on Samsung Galaxy S GT-I900 Running Slim Bean v2.1

Install JDK and prepare system. [Doubts Click Me]

Prepare a folder with apktool.jar and aapt.exe, Lets say C:\APKTOOL

Extract the framework-res.apk and Phone.apk from the ROM package and move to the same folder.

Right-click while holding the shift button in the folder to open command prompt in the target folder.

Or navigate to the folder you are currently working using

C:\Users\mnazim\> cd C:\APKTOOL

Install the framework by using the below command.

C:\APKTOOL\> java -jar apktool.jar if framework-res.apk

Decode the Phone.apk using the following command

C:\APKTOOL\> java -jar apktool.jar d Phone.apk

Wait...mmm... K...

Navigate to the folder thus created

Open the file with notepad++

Go to the part that starts with the tag

[B]com.android.internal.widget.multiwaveview.GlowPadView[/B]

Check for the property [Probably on the first line itself]

[B]android:background[/B]

Change the value from

[B]@android:color/black[/B]

or

[B]@color:incall_call_banner_background[/B]

to

[B]#a0000000[/B]

or change to the following for full transparency

[B]#00000000[/B]

Save and exit.

Re-Build the Phone app with the following command from the same Command Prompt Window. [Notice the "b" for build, previously it was "d"]

C:\APKTOOL\> java -jar apktool.jar b Phone

Wait...mmm...mmm...mmm... K...

The output apk will be in the following folder.

Copy the apk to /system set permissions and reboot. [Create backup in case. Rename the old one to "Phone.apk.bak" ]

Or make a flashable ZIP and flash from recovery. Use this as a reference.

Done.

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] thatguy188:
A little off topic, but do you have any idea about how to change the blue background where it says "Incoming Call"? I ran across this because I thought incall_call_banner_background was it, but it sure isnt :P Any suggestions? :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] mnazim:
Blue background...? :confused:

could you show me a screenshot?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Nashdogg:
He is referring to the blue banner right above the contact image that says incoming call on it.:cool:

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] ruh01:
I did my best to do step by step as described in tutorial but still got those error messages as in Post 3, even I have installed framework and JDK...I myself want that phone.apk for Slim Bean
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] mnazim:
Please try installing the SystemUI.apk along with framework-res as it may solve some issues.! Will confirm and inform ASAP.!

java jar apktool.jar if SystemUI.apk
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Chrisblack757:
I have tried your command for SystemUI.apk but i get an error and it is not loaded.

I really am a noob with this stuff, can you please give me some more advice?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] mnazim:
please do post the screenshot of the error.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] mnazim:

Gladly, here you are

Thanks alot for taking time to look into this problem.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] mnazim:
Sorry I get no such errors. It just builds fine for me. Will make a CWM flash-able pack as soon as I get some time and post in the OP. ;)

Please do try to flash this ZIP. If it works do inform. It should work for any ROM in theory. ;)

PS: Don't forget to mount /system partition just in case.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Chrisblack757:
I have flashed it but there are no changes to the incoming call photo, it's still semi-transparent. I have mounted system too

I am on HellyBean 11/9 with your inverted apps pack.

PS: I was getting the same results as ruh01 above
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] mnazim:
I have updated the package... Please try downloading it again.!

PS: Tested on CM10 and works.! :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Chrisblack757:

greeeeeat

Works like a treat, Sir! Now my call screen is fully visible and I also have latest improvements concerning call widget centered.

Still I am very curious why I didnt manage to do it myself, I have tried several times and witk apktool and apk multitool. still no success in rebuilding apk. Decompiling went ok.

I tried on windows 7 because I have no access to computer with XP, only at my job but I cant install JDK there.

Could youl please send me the whole folder you used to compress-decompress, all the files necesay and I will try again later on another laptop.

anyway thanks alot

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Chrisblack757:

I still cannot get this working. Could anyone assist me do apply this mod on the latest Hellybean? I think they changed something in the framework so the older version does not work correctly.

Anyways, if anyone could mod my phone file, would be awesome. They are in my dropbox

Framework: http://db.tt/WSGYdYL6

Hello, I'm a noob on this forum (this is my first post) and I'd like to know if someone can help me with my issue. I searched many hours over the whole forum and when I found this thread, I was very happy :D, but 'till now I was not be able to fix my problem.

My SGS+ is running the arco68's CM9 (beta 3) ROM. I like that very much (great work for me), but it's effected by the annoying issue on the incoming call screen.

I followed step by step the tutorial written by mnazim but I was not able to complete the process due to the same error occurred to saraomani (post#3). I tried again and again and I installed also SystemUI.apk but no way to finish!

Then I flashed all the zip files uploaded, but I got only an FC on Phone.apk everytime. Frustrating! :(

Someone please help me :crying:, I'm going :mad:

Thank you for your time in advance!

P.S.

I think that my 'Phone.apk' and 'Framework-res.apk' will be needed. They are here attached.

i found the solution. with your update.zip gives no changes in the phone.apk. maybe an error at update-script. i have unzip the zip and open phone apk with winrar and replace the file from your update. and its works.

it says multiple package and something

so what should I do to mode cm10.1 phone.apk
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] mnazim:
I think 4.2.1 has issues with this version of apktool. Try searching xda for a newer version.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] niravnn:
hi again I can now install framework-res.apk and also decompile Phone.apk and recompile it.

but when I push it through adb and reboot it mobile network doesn't work.

so what am I doing wrong do I have to sign the apk or set permission if yes how ?

and after recompiling Phone.apk its size is smaller than the pulled Phone.apk

I've only edited which you mentioned in OP that's it. thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] mnazim:
If you have issues with the output apk then open the apk in RAR/ZIP utility and pull the res/layout/incall_touch_ui.xml and overwrite it into the original apk.

Permissions have to be set as 0644 or rw-r--r--

Hey Mnazim I know this thread is quite old now, but is there any chance of getting this mod for ICS F4k MOD v4.0.4 r4 Linaro? I've tried building this myself on 2 different laptops but keep getting the same build errors as people in the first few pages. I would really like to have 100% transparency on my dialer. I've gone backwards with my ROM flashing because I feel ICS is a much better option in comparison to later builds, but now a lot of mods are unsupported, shame...

I'd be VERY greatful for your assistance, or anyone else who may have already built this for F4k ROM.

Multiple substitutions error(s)?

Check this:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=36486175&postcount=1279

Remove the second % on every line stated giving multiple substitutions error and it will recompil correctly.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] RuffBuster:
thank you bud that helped a little, but there were a couple of other errors too that weren't multiple substitution errors.. I was able to produce an APK but it wasn't any good with the other errors. Gonna get the laptop out and try again. Really want this mod now I've finally found the ROM I want to stay with. Again thanks for getting me a step further.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Bejda:
I was just checking it ;)

Indeed there's two others errors:

C:\apktool1.5.3\Phone\res\values\public.xml:1020: error: Public symbol string/phone_number_label declared here is not defined.
C:\apktool1.5.3\Phone\res\values\public.xml:1021: error: Public symbol string/phone_number_summary declared here is not defined.

Right now i'm typing "declared here is not defined" as search words on apktool thread that's how i find the way when i first encountered the "multiple substitutions" error :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Bejda:
Well finally it gave me "no default translations" error when compiling wich are only warnings and shouldn't prevent the apk from working fine...presumably.

Wanna test?View attachment Phone.apk
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] RuffBuster:
I have done but unfortunately it gave me the same results as the APK I created, gives me no signal and force closes when trying to use the dialer. Thanks for trying bud. Least you've pointed me in the right direction with searching for errors within the appropriate topics. Sigh..
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Bejda:
Ahw ****,no signal you said?

That really annoys me,i made one for someone (mackay 1.9.0 request on previous page) but this time i could test it myself before sending it to him..

On my side all was perfect,i had calls so could check full transparency and then signal was ok,spend the evening on it and didn't noticed any unexpected issue but on his side...no signal too :(

That's a really strange thing that really bugs me now lol.

There could be another way though,how do you make the apk modification?

For me i edit res/values/colors.xml and change:

<color name="incall_call_banner_background">#a0000000</color>

For:

<color name="incall_call_banner_background">#00000000</color>

colors.xml is in values so it needs the apk to be compiled but if you edit res/layout/incall_touch_ui.xml as stated in OP you could just decompil the apk,edit that .xml,and with no need to recompil put that .xml in a universal flasher zip that will "morph" your Phone.apk just like one Mnazim posted on first page..could be an alternate way to get once and for all a modded and working for you Phone.apk maybe..
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] RuffBuster:
I used the method from the OP. gonna give you're method a try. seems a better option, should least bypass the errors created by the other xml's. you've been a great help so far.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Bejda:
So method would be keeping yours/OP one but once apk decompiled and your incall_touch_ui.xml edited just push it in universal flasher zip's MORPH folder like here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=31105055&postcount=9
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] RuffBuster:
YES!! It worked. Used the XML from the compiled APK placed it within the zip from OP and bingo. Thank you bud couldn't of done it without you.
