Ok the problem was wrong ids's

I think I solved it just replace the ids with yours in public.xml

<public type="drawable" name="textfield_search_right_holo" id="0x010807fd" />

<public type="drawable" name="semc_magnifier_arrow_above" id="0x010807fe" />

To add new nxt animations just extract the anim folder from a nxt framework and edit the styles.xml file in your framework to make them work
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] djedjy:
But how to edit the styles :P :D
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Siddhesh:
Re: [TUTORIAL] How to add various framework/Settings mods [Update 24/2/2013]

Ok here are my nxt animation files download from here http://db.tt/fg2Or7hH

Decompile your framework-res.apk and copy the anim & animator folder in the zip provided by me and replace with yours then just compare ur styles.xml file with mine.

Just look at lines with @anim/
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] djedjy:
Thanks :) In my styles there are 301 @anim and in yours 305 :D I cant figure witch to add :D
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Siddhesh:
Re: [TUTORIAL] How to add various framework/Settings mods [Update 24/2/2013]

Ok just check the @anim/ lines under this

this

<style name="Animation.Dialog" parent="@style/Animation">

this

Maybe it will soon be possible to run android and windows nt nativly at the same time on the Transformer !

how? - ReactOS:

http://www.reactos.org/ (if you are going to test it in a virtual machine dont' use the 0.3.14 version of os, use the trunk build version its much much much better)

ReactOS is an open source windows clone and most of the windows applications work on it ! (MS office, opera, ff, ...) the good news is there is an ARM port of ReactOS - Windows RT equivalent:

http://www.reactos.org/wiki/ARM_Port

ReactOS still has problems to work on real hardware because of many different components but on some PC it works very well (it can be targeted to work on a platform and fix the bugs)

The ARM port is able to run on the transformer but there is still a lot of work to do.

Windows will soon release a Office ARM version for winRT and in order to run any windows application on the transformer a recompile is needed.

and about android there is already a port of android that runs native on windows:(ne emulation no virtual machine !!)

http://mobile.slashdot.org/story/13...utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&utm_medium=feed

If anyone has any coding skills it would be nice to try to port reactos to the transformer or just to donate to the project with the subject "arm port for transformer"

Hi,

Like everyone else I have to say"Follow these instructions at your own risk" I do not take any responsibility for any thing that happens. It worked for me so it may work for you!

Trio 4.3 Internet Tablet M4302 Model Trio 4.3MID 4.0C by Mach Speed Technologies

I just picked this tablet up. I have successfully rooted it and have installed a working Play Store. I now have access to all my apps that I use on my Galaxy Note 10.1.

To root I used the instructions from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1886460

Once I had root I wanted to get Google Play Store on the tab. I found a couple of places that had information concerning adding Play Store to other devices and kind of pieced the info together to come up with this solution.

1. Download gapps for ICS. http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip

2. Unzip file

3. Navigate to the " System/app " folder and find "phonesky.apk and setupwizard.apk"

(You will need to copy these two files to your tablet)

4. Once files are on tablet use something like "Root Explorer" to copy both to the "system/app" folder of the tablet.

(The folders will need to be mounted as "R/W" so they can be written to )

5. After the files are copied to the proper folder, you need to edit the permissions for both.

6. In "Root Explorer" long press on each file and choose "permissions"

7. Edit permissions to read "Owner: Read, Write" "Group: Read" "Others: Read"

8. Reboot and launch Play Store

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] chad78:
Mine came rooted

Thank you for this post!

Just wanted to give a heads up for anyone who finds this thread through Google or whatever, like I did, that it's possible your device is already rooted.

I bought mine today from Big Lots - branded as a: Trio 4.3" Touch Screen Media Player for Android by Mach Speed Technologies - on the box (well blister plastic wrap thing that is Hades to open...). The instruction user's manual, however just calls it a Trio 4.3" Internet Tablet.

(Specs from the box.)

Android OS 4.0

4.3" Capacitive Touch Screen

4GB Internal Memory with Micro SD Slt (Up to 32GB)

Built-in WiFi

Speaker

Auto Rotate for Portrait & Landscape Viewing

1.2GHz Processor

Rechargable Li-on Battery

Anyway, I just wanted to say thank you, and let everyone know to check your device first. There may be better ways to check, but there are a couple of apps in the Amazon App Store called "Root Checker" - don't get the "My Root Checker" - it has crazy pop-up ads - I deleted it in seconds. But just check to see if your device is rooted. It could save you some time, and potential headaches.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Herc08:
Well, jsut confirming that this guide works. In the root post, I used the stadard root method...if you are like me and got this for a little one, they wanted apps. Of course I couldnt open until today...but it really works. I just dowloaded the root explorer apk (a quick google search worked) and installed it...i can upload a screen shot if necessary

Hulu Plus

Since this is the best thread for this tablet I've found. I wanted to ask if anyone has gotten Hulu to work? I have installed many different versions including the latest and all of them will play the ads just fine, but once it gets the episode it just sits there and buffers and buffers and buffers. Devices on the same WIFI have no issues. I am even talking with Hulu suppor about it and of course they are playing dumb about it and just giving me standard troubleshooting. Is this tablet blocked by Hulu somehow because it's chinese made? I don't get a region error, which I can force with proxies and such. I just get buffering and buffering and buffering. Any help would be much appreciated.

Okay so I'm going to keep this simple and clean Lol

I'm currently getting ideas for two ROMs I would like to develop for the Epic 4G Touch

But I'm new to the Android dev scene

I'm proficient in Java and C++

But idk where to start in the android deving world

If anyone could point me in the right direction maybe tutorials websites I don't mind reading a big page of information, it would be much appreciated

Well the first ROM I need to wait for Jelly bean source for what I want to do

But I'm getting ideas together for an AOSP 4.2.1 based ROM of my own like I will actually code every tweak myself

And I'll get permission from Dastin to use his cm10.1 as a base first but I just need some guidance on where to start

I am currently running Linux Mint KDE its based off of Ubuntu and i would not mind switching to Ubuntu if need be

i have two computers a laptop and a desktop i try to dev on my Laptop but it takes longer to compile as it has crappy specs

so i might have to bring this to my desktop

I think is the best way to do all quickly, in this way (i think) i will not have to expend much time after install new rom version.

You think it's a good way to operate?

No, they would still have to be reinstalled, use titanium backup to backup your apps, it will reinstall then onto your new Rom easily, only restore user apps though system apps will cause problems ;)

You can make An update zip with All your apps, it's actually easier to make an update zip with just titanium in it and then batch restore your apps and data afterwards
