[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] smishxda:
Is there a way to choose/make/browse themes [FULL] only for incoming call screens? Especially for Samsung Galaxy Y, the stock answering call is really bad.

Is it possible to download / theme the incoming call screen via Metamorph? And where to find such themes for Samsung Galaxy Y?

I already know about some third-party apps on Play store such as Ultimate Call Screen HD, but they don't do what I need.

p.s. I'm NOT looking either for ROMs with different incoming call screens (I'm here for a simple way to theme the incoming call screens for android);)

[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] smishxda:
Alright, yours look cool.

I would like to know how did u get this incoming call screen. P.S. I prefer themed slide answering not a slider that looks like stock Samsung :rolleyes:
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Baskhara:
I got that on any thread I am forgot the thread name. I didn't modified it coz I like to modify framework-res.apk :D
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] smishxda:
Alright, can you please tell me where to find the items inside (framework-res.apk) to edit the incoming call screen?
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Baskhara:
The incoming call screen is in Phone.apk not in framework-res.apk.. if u want I can give u the .apk?
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] smishxda:
Yes please :)

Can you tell me which tool you use to decompile/extract the Phone.apk to edit files?
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Baskhara:
As I said, I took it from other thread so I don't know how to edit it. But you can use APKTool to decompile the .apk..
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] 74M3NUMB3RS:
HMMMM....

ill try to decompile mine and study it...theme it...then give it to you...if i succeed xD
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Baskhara:
Btw is there a guide on how to modify phone.apk?
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] smishxda:
-12.0 kphudes

I decompiled Phone.apk

there are many xml files and png images, I'm looking for the images that targets "specifically" the incoming call screen items such as the background, frames, sliders. What are the png/xml file names to tweak those specific things :o
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Baskhara:
If only want to edit the image just change the .png file but for location of the image I think it on xml file n I don't know about xml it make me confused .. :confused:

Check ur pm ..
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] menewtoroot:
Well plz discuss here whatever u are discussing right now..

It will be helpfull for me and other noobs out there..
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] smishxda:
Wow... I couldn't find the background image for the incoming call screen, neither the answering sliders.

Anyway, I found many Phone.apk online for different ROMs and different Android devices. Is it OK if I used any for my Galaxy Y? :confused:
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Baskhara:
I think ya, coz some of my system app is from custom rom n I am using stock rom :D just give it a try, is it work or not. N do a backup before changing the app ;)
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] smishxda:
I downloaded several Phone.apk(s) from the net, but every time I try to install one it asks me that "this is a system app, do you want to replace" and say yes but then it says (Application not installed) :eek:

What could be wrong? and how to fix it?
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Vatsal:
I think you should flash via cwm. Well, i am a beginner but even i changed my default one. But pls confirm with senior members. I think you have to flash it
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] smishxda:
I tried flashing the flashable APK but with no success, it displayed "installation aborted" at the end.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Baskhara:
Yes I agree with koradiavatsal, u should flash through cwm, or try this, copy the file (Phone.apk) to /system n set permission to rw-r--r-- n then move n replace it to /system/app, then reboot. If this not succesfull the one way is flash it through cwm ;)
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] smishxda:
Before I continue to to the replacement inside the system/app directory...

Is it ok to replace even if the Phone.apk is made for ICS or JB? I of course use GB.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Baskhara:
I think ICS/JB Phone.apk can't be installed on GB, I've try to install the same file from my sister's phone that get ics but the result is Error parsing the package (using PackageInstaller) n it wont installed too using this method. :sly::rolleyes:
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] smishxda:
I did exactly what you said before, it somehow changed the dialer, but as soon as I try to call a number it turns black and forces to close, I tried rebooting again and did everything. It seemed not compatible so I returned back to my original Phone.apk and everything is working as usual...

Can you please send me links to sites which contain Phone.apk for gingerbread and be compatible with my Galaxy Y? :o
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Baskhara:

Found odexed Phone Apk?

I replaced a odexed Phone apk i found earlier for [Samsung Galaxy Y] in my system/app directory, it obviously didn't work on my Galaxy Y running Creed 3.5 ROM..

Now how can i deodex [or whatever appropriate] the phone apk and make it fully compatible to work on my Galaxy Y? :)
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Baskhara:
Try this http://db.tt/R3IcEjZM Phone.apk from Stock ROM DXLE1 and it deodexed..

The Phone.apk seems not compatible, there is absolutely no signal. And an error box appears saying that the "messages" app (mms) has stopped unexpectedly.

Please help; :o
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Baskhara:
Well, it's not installed to your phone.. you should reinstall your original Phone.apk first.. or if you are on odexed rom try to remove Phone.odex.. btw what firmware u're using now?
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Sid Droid:

[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] smishxda:
You're right...

I would be so pleased if I am able to make/modd my own Phone.apk, but i don't have the enough experience with such thing.

These XML documents inside a Phone.apk just make me nervous and feel lost :confused:

Any sites you recommend that can gain me some knowledge about dealing with XMLs, especially with modding Phone.apk? :o
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] Baskhara:
After searching on Google what I found is just the decompiled phone.apk (ready to use) but not for sgy :sly:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Nutzzer:
All,

Just purchased a new Verizon GS3. Will keep it stock for the time being but want to know what steps should I do before I unroot and unlock? Should I update the phone via Verizon updates first then unroot and unlock? Or it doesn't matter and I can just unroot/unlock then update via ota updates?

Reason why I'm not installing a new ROM is that I've been reading the forums and there is not alot of stable ROM's out, regardless what rom this phone has, there is a couple of things not working. I need this phone as stable as possible for work reasons. If I'm wrong, please let me know what you recommend.

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] shangrila500:
You don't really need to update the phone once your rooted and unlocked if you want to keep your phone rooted and unlocked. It will lock your phone and there may be no going back. The updates so far haven't locked our boot loader but that doesn't mean it won't happen. If you want to have root and an unlocked bootloader then NEVER update via the OTA Update feature on your phone. Just download the update after one if our excellent devs has fixed it up. All of the current stock updates are available to be flashed now.

If you need it stable then dont tinker with it!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jaytronics:
Leave it stock, and root it. Purchase Titanium Backup and then freeze the apps that update the firmware. Then that should save your rear end in case VZW tries to pull a sneaky sneaky on this phone. And it will open you up to some basic cool things as well.

You see, in the Matrix they offered the blue or the red pill. But, here at XDA they offer something for every one. Even the ones that want to be in the middle. They offer the red pill- stock no root, blue pill- Rom the phone have fun with some headaches at times. And the purple pill, stock and root with some benefits.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PaulG1488:
There are stable roms for this phone, but in your case I guess you should stay stock.

[Captivate General] Adam318:
I know this is probably the "wrong section" to post this in, but being that this is my first post (longtime reader, and flashaholic, first time poster), the system will not let me post in the Captivate Android Development section. Anyways, my question is, does anyone have a download link mirror to download DLEVROM 4.2? It was the fastest ROM I have ever used and want to use it again, but I can't find it on my computer anywhere! I tried the link in the OP, but it takes me to iLivid and never gives me a download link...

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated! :D

[Captivate General] Adam318:
BUMP! Need a link! MOD could you possibly move this to the Android Development Section for me? Maybe I will get a better response there!
[Captivate General] silvertag:
This is not a dev question and the general forum is the best place for it. Did you try to pm the Rom creator and ask for a new link or for that package ?
[Captivate General] Adam318:
Yes I PM'ed the DEV, yet no response, and I can't post in the original DLEVROM thread because I do not have access to post in the DEV section yet (less than 10 posts). I looked all over XDA and couldn't find a good link, even googled it and looked on file websites...to no avail.

Sorry if posted in wrong tread but does anyone here knows of any waterproof case for our evo 4G LTE. Does the overboard waterproof pouch works with the defender otterbox or commuter case. Thanks for any help.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Crowordove:
The Overboard waterproof case works like a charm! I just got off a cruise and used it the entire time ( in the pool, on the beach, in the ocean :good: ) I use the seidio convert case and although the surface portion fits without any problem the extra outer layers would be a very tight fit in the overboard if they fit at all. I picked mine up HERE and I highly recommend it. The headphone jack is up to you though as they have one without it and for me it just sucked up space.

Thanks for the quick response. I'm definitely going to check it out. I will love to take pictures under the water with this powerful camera. Thanks again.

DryCASE is an awesome waterproof case that can be taken deeper than 100ft! Its a waterproof clear bag with a patented vacuum seal technology. The clear plastic bag allows you to have full access and use to your phone. DryCASE takes incredible pictures, too!

DryCASE also comes with waterproof ear buds as well as an arm band for water activities.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] KeiranFTW:
I've had a phone from most android manufacturers (Samsung Galaxy Ace, LG Optimus One, HTC Wildfire, Motorola Atrix (for a few weeks)) and out of all of them, I preferred the Sony ones, Xperia PLAY, and Xperia U. Why? Because they actually have software that the manufacturer has clearly spent time on.

Lately, the Xperia sections on xda have deteriorated into a piece of sh#t, with people whining about updates and expecting everything.

Not just Sony, they seem to be bashing developers too. If someone doesn't want to release something, then they don't have to, at all.

What people expect here is a release of a official update literally a week after source release, well that's not going to happen. They have to implement their board and hardware as well as kernel and vendor trees into the source, rewrite all applications and software, update the kernel, update all of the graphics, update themes, get it certified by Google, then tested, then released, and this could take up to 6-8 month. Sure, I bet you could say they could just use vanilla, but they can't, they have to stick with their proprietary UI if they are updating a phone that uses that UI.

Sony provide developers with source code and instructions, as well as reworked binaries, and have recently provided The Android Open Source Project with a developer for the LT26 and also licensed binaries. They also provide devices through the developer loaner program.

Winging like an arsehole on here won't get you an update any quicker, and it only pisses of the few developers you have here.

If this persists, then I'm sorry to say this but I won't pay attention to xda at all, flaming a manufacturer on here does nothing apart from make you look like a total dickhead, and it won't get you anywhere. Sony never signed a contract saying they will update any phone, and until they do, I won't expect an update.

As I said, a few more snide remarks pointed at Sony and I'm gone, to somewhere where you can actually post a topic, and develop, where someone will not demand a fix or not read any of the thread and ask stupid questions. And any abuse directed towards any developer and I'm gone for good, no looking back. People like jerpelea and Kali work for hours writing lines of code and you guys demand fixes and complain when a release is missed.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Felimenta97:
As you said, the problem is that most people are so closed minded they they don't realize that the world don't spin around them.

Using the subject here: Sony is a company. A Multi Billionaire company. That means they are part of the capitalism, which leads to the idea: Win Money. At the end, what they want to do is that. But they choose to be a good company, and offer support to their users. But if they are too much supportive, they won't win money. Do they have to put the bad and good things, and find an equilibrium between support and money. At my point of view, they are close to it.

Everyone thinks it's easy to run a company of that size. It isn't. That is what's missing here. This vision.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Efe64:
Sorry but... I need to post this...

Its not an joke.. This time the meme is serious..

In reality, its real.

I can write a whole page about those people but nevermind. Let them be them, let us be us.

And what if Sony didnt give a single f8ck like other companys?

Be happy what you get.

This is just what i gonna say.

Respect others work, respect the big firms and respect each other. If you think you can do it better then show us your work. If not? Sorry to say, then please get the f8ck out of here.

No one has the right to disrespect each other.

And as user disrespecting an developer?

Unthankfull little sh8t, be happy its for free!

Be happy they make great work for just thank buttons!

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] KidCarter93:
Here's how I see it...

Firstly, I can totally understand where you're coming from Keiran. As the thread created by K900 shown, the people demanding everything really does have a detrimental effect on not just you developers, but the rest of us users aswell. Afterall, if all of our devs decide to leave due to certain people's attitude, then it's a huge loss for our whole community.

Also, as my post said in that thread, it's truly sad to see the way XDA has turned out. When I first started lurking on this site was November last year and things were a lot better then. Obviously there was still people demanding things and thinking that the developers owed them something, but it wasn't as bad as it is now.

This is perfect proof that Operation Ironfist needs to brought back.

On the otherhand, I'll have to come against you for this bit.

Obviously I have no right to tell you what to do, and I wouldn't even dream of doing so, but saying you'll leave simply because people are bashing Sony is, in my opinion, laughable.

I truly respect the work you and the other developers over here have done and that won't change.

I just feel that a double-standard is being used here.

You say that if people don't stop demanding things from Sony and from you developers that you'll leave. That in itself, is demanding that people stop acting like that, to stop you leaving.

Also, you can't attempt to force people to change their opinions. Fair enough you prefer Sony devices, as do I as the majority of phones I've owned have been Sony/SE, but you cant change their mind.

That would be like me forcing you to change your mind about your thoughts on this forum. You'd effectively tell me to 'do one'.

This is in no way intended to degrade you or your work, it's simply my opinion. It would be good to hear your thoughts about this :)

I noticed a trend. Most of them who shoot Sony came from the same country. Same for those who always complain about minor issues that can be easly solved. I'm not being racist, but facts are facts. Besides, they are always comparing Sony with Samsung but seemed to forget to compare with LG and Mototrola.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Rapier07:
I say leave the modding for the mods and do our work. Noone here is a nobody to regulate people's expressions. If something is out of the way the mods are here to bring it on track. Moreover what memebers say here is their opinion which we should not try to stop, it is a forum after all, a community.

Don't mind those who don't matter. Those who matter won't mind. Simple as that.

As i speak here,Yes i have some problem within my device which sony have very bad customer service and blaming device faulty on the user.

I do want to bash them until end of the world but on the bright side.

Xperia U & Sola user should have read properly what sony blog has written.

They mean they can confirm that those above devices is guranteed to receive Android 4.1

but did they ever mention they will not release Jellybean for the Xperia U & Sola? *think twice*

Sony will constant release software update for the Xperia Flagship device and midrange like they did on the ICS release on Xperia 2011 line up

They release for the Arc S & Neo V & Ray before continuing with those small screen and lil devices.

It's a sad new to Xperia 2011 that i couldn't say much

As they did stated that it's not upgradable to JB but they did not say that Sola & U is not upgradable

So for this section of Forum.

I don't own a Xperia NXT but this is line up that has dual core which Sony Will Come out with updates after they release updates for high end & high end mid range NXT & Arc series.

As explain keiran there's long process as company to release and update not just build up from source and pushed out to user and ta-da

Massive bug report flaming over android's forum.

I think there's bright possibility update reaches on the NXT series for JB but sadly they won't update for sure for the Xperia 2011
