ok im assuming windows, can be done in linux as well, if you using mac i wont help

this is what you need

http://www.7-zip.org/

http://notepad-plus-plus.org/

http://apkmultitool.com/

https://play.google.com/stor/apps/details?id=com.speedsoftware.rootexplorer

http://sinfulandroid.com/showthread.php/2597-SignApk-Sign-Your-Android-APK-File

or something similar, you can push and pull with adb too

first so you know how to do it lets do this, make a back up, flash a different rom for our phone (one with a battery mod you like but similar base)

use root explorer, go to system>framework>framework-res.apk, copy it (may have to make r/w) and save it to sd card

or you can use adb

adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk c:\desktop

this will put the .apk on your desktop or you just take the one from sd card if you used root explorer

now use 7zip to open the flashable zip i made (extract files)

in the folder go to system>framework>and swap out the two framework-res.apks

now back out of folder until all you see is system folder and META-INF

highlight both

right click

choose add to archive

name it NEWBATTERYICON.zip (exactly)

make sure compression is set to store and hit go

not you have a flashable .zip, but its not signed, so either toggle verification in recovery or lets quick sign it

How To sign

need the latest java installed, get from below if needed

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/java-archive-downloads-javase7-521261.html

take the signapk.jar tool

put it on the root of computer (directly in c:// no other folder)

open it up, place NEWBATTERYICON.zip in this folder allong with the other garbage

now open cmd in same location (hold shift, rightclick in folder and choose open command here or cd:/SignApk)

copy this and paste into cmd

java -jar signapk.jar certificate.pem key.pk8 NEWBATTERYICON.zip NEWBATTERYICON-signed.zip

hit enter and wait a couple seconds

now use place the newly signed zip on sdcard and flash in recovery!

ok this was long, so if you handle all this fine let me know and ill teach how to modify vs just extracting and swapping!

good luck! and as always...

HAPPY FLASHING!

Ehh it went bad i kept having overlapping issues

I set it up where the time would be center . Tryed to get all apps to be in one icon which would go up in numbers (1,2,3) kinda thing) which didnt work then any new notification messed the things up and i tryed to make it where if connceted to wiffi the 3g bar goes away

Im not that good with android so i trashed it (wish it was more like ipod/phone where you can move it because its all one thing)

Looked like this @ is signal/wifi %battery +3 3 different notifications which i thing doesnt work atleast not for me

+3.......12:00........@%
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] demkantor:
Can you send me what you did so I can see where it went wrong?
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] ivoe:
Sorry man I trashed it all an went back to stock

The main problem though was the notifications because they don't stack in till it hits the breaker so I tryed to move it all the way over to the side where it will hit after the 2nd notification

The signal an wifi need a new script I didn't mess with it I tryed the notifications first and clock with out am pm because if it's 7:00 an getting dark you know it's night

It's not much just 2 things that were moved (4 counting landscape)
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] ivoe:
please download the new battery icon on page 2 it should fix invisible charging battery
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] demkantor:
Hey great job! When I get to a computer I can upload you a bunch of icon packs if you would like to make some more, love seeing people working on this kind of stuff!
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] ivoe:
Yea I'll mess with some more

I have to fix the last one charging from 27%to 99% is blank >.< mostly because the theme didn't have them so I'm just going to make dues an rename them
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] ivoe:
okay new battery file with fixed charging issue (please note i have not tested this!!! nor am i responsible for how you phone will look after or any issues you may encounter)

the battery icon is this one in the link

(the original post

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1210767

not signed (im lazy and did it off the honey comb battery demkantor uploaded)

just go to install zip and disable signature verification

it looks really nice to me (was looking for maybe a blue colored one but it seems this battery icon is dead i couldn't find any others with working links

I'll be making more battery's if you want something give me a download with all the icons
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] ndiy:
Thanks, demkantor~ I've tried this extracting and swapping on other device, instead of SK4G, coz I couldn't find a good alternate rom to flash :p

Now lemme see how I can handle 'modify' phase of modding, I think I passed the 'extracting and swapping' phase, thanks to you :victory:

wow, thanks. I'll definitely test it, I didn't bring my SK4G right now, will report the result tomorrow. :D
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] demkantor:
Yeah you can't use the framework from a different phone, but the icons are fine to use and flash. I'll be at a computer soon and I'll post some more icons as well instructions to decompile the framework-res.apk and swap icons
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] demkantor:
quick guide

sorry took me a while to get to a computer, ok here you go:

need to extract the apk tool from the the download all to one folder, open that folder and open a terminal into that location (hold shift and right click there or cd to it)

then make sure the system-res.apk is in this folder too

run this is terminal

java -jar apktool.jar if framework-res.apk

now run this

apktool d -f -r framework-res.apk

this creates a new folder, open it up, find res> drawable-hdpi

swap out the wanted icons for battery or whatever

once done run this in terminal

apktool b -f -d framework-res

wait a couple seconds to finish, open up that framework-res folder and youll see a new folder called build and one called dist, look in there for new apk

and just push it phone and change permissions or follow my instructions before to add it into my prebuilt flashable zips (best if you sign it too)

here is some various icons for you as well

OGBatteryMod v2.1.0.zip - 27.71 MB

also its hard for me to remember all the steps and what i type in terminal so i just made another one (bubbles) so i could make this guide, i am attaching it here. i dont have my phone to test it but this is the same way as the others so it should work fine. oh also i never upgraded my apktool so im using a real old build but the newer ones work similar i suppose, if not i can link you to the build i use or will update to a newer tool and see where the differences lie

good luck guys! im real glad you two are picking this up, its great to see so many interested in starting to develop!

and for anyone else wanting to try your hand at ill let you know once you get the hang of it something like this will take you ten minuets tops from start to finish.... just saying

as always, Happy Flashing!
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] ivoe:
yea i know that the frameworks are different but all icons are just that a .png file which can be moved around to any phone (faster way to theming for alot of lazy people xD

also i dont like siging them it takes awhile for me cuz everything on my computer is just everywhere. So if anyone would like to all they need is to be signed and done .... plus if they dont know how to turn off the signature check they should probably wait before trying in my opinion

Cyris battery with full charging should work (still going off the honeycomb.zip demkantor uploaded on another thread) i will get to the og battery in just a minute

and if you want i am free the next few weeks i graduated last week \^.^/ so im basically home the entire morning and night so i can make other battery's (p.s upload your framework if you dont want mostly everything blue) or if you give me a simple tut ill do other things as well (not a developer but i can do alot with a little)
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] ivoe:
p.s. demkantor you can change the icon files via 7zip (extract the files go to system>framework>right click >7zip>open archive>hdmi > then highlight all the icons and drag into archive and your done)

will make a new thread with all theicon mods i make soon and will sign them too (:

and for everyone else please look at " rom toolbox" for the batterys as well so i dont make multiple ones that are on there :o
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] demkantor:
Really? You just used 7zip to open the apk? I never tried, didn't even think of that, nice!
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] ivoe:
yea save time an less stuff to use

p.s. signing the zips are not working tryed multiple times and different ways

but if your running red voodoo cwm you just have to install the zip no turning on or off things
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] demkantor:
So not even a need to recompile needed huh, thats great, you don't know how much time this will save me! For the signing ill link you to a different tool I used to use, but strange that this one doesn't work, are you using windows? Is it in c:/ ? If not you would need to create a path in environmental variables

http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=428891&d=1288301194

try this out, may be a bit easier to use, make sure you have updated java
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] ivoe:
tryed this one the previous way you told me droid explorer and auto signer

all seemed to fail miserably

idk i mean if your running red voodoo cwm you can just install the zips and yellow just incase go turn signature check off

but anyways ill be on the new thread ive just uploaded with most of the batterys (didnt check them yet but im getting to it xD)
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] ndiy:
Wow, thanks guys~

I'm still in outside of the city and didn't bring my SK4G, so I'll try all of this later when I'm back at home.

So basically all I need is extract any framework even from other phone using 7zip, pick the PNGs that I like from it, and put it on the demkantor's prebuilt flashable zip, and turn off the toggle signature on red CWM, right?

Ha, it's easier than I thought than, lol. Thanks for the Battery Modding 101 lesson, guys~ you've been really helpful. :angel:

I'll upload my framework when I'm finished making one later. :D

I just need to 'unlatch' prior to selling & replacing with a XDAII. I do not have a buyer yet so will contiue to use with the current O2 SIM card. I have a serial cable.

Is all that needs to be done is to click on 'unlock' then click on 'reset' using Manipulator?

Having read the forum it seems that some users have had difficulties. Please -

What, if any have been the main problems?

Can I keep the current IMEI number or do I have to set a new one?

If the IMEI is to be changed what should it be changed to?

Should I leave the SIM card in?

Does Manipulator work with Radio version 4.08? It is not on the Manipulator list.

Thanks in advance

[Xperia Z Accessories] skrubis:
Hello,

Just wanted to check in with skins for my new gadgets (s4 for my gf/htc one for me/xperia z as my secondary phone)- this topic is about a Kin Leaves skin I just received for my Xperia Z. About a week ago I ordered a bunch of skins from them as they were the first ones to add support for s4/One/Z.

1) Shipping- the shipping is free worldwide and they ship inside a cute amazon style envelopes. Every skin is packaged in its own translucent envelope with setup instructions enclosed.

2) Price- somewhere between highly priced zagg products and the chinese ones. Judging by the fact no other vinyl skin supplier could help me at the moment- price was no object for such a small purchase (~8.50 EUR/12 USD).

3) Quality- all great here. Love the semi matte surface finish.

4) Ease of application- I, personally, believe anyone would be able to install one without any problems. This one didn't stick to the surface right away, so positioning was no challenge. After you press the skin against the surface- the adhesive becomes sticky. I have had skins on all my gadgets ever since my old BB in 2008.
[Xperia Z Accessories] benziii:
Do these come with skins for the front aswell?

And if so, do you find it bothersome to touch the edges of the screen?

I ordered three pairs (buy two, get one free) a few days ago from Intoroskins:

https://www.intoroskins.co.uk/buy-case/custom-skin-for-sony-xperia/65044/

For the Z these are priced at £7.99 (front + back)

I do love the flush surface of the front, so I don't think they will be staying on in the long run.

Just too curious to leave them be I suppose.

Pics will end up in this thread:

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlazeReborn:
Hello there.

My phone has a bit of a problem with battery drains.

I have a MB525 with CM10, 17/02 build.

The issue:

It's about the frickin battery drops. It drains too fast and then it drops from 80 percent to a whalloping 50 percent, and then from 48 percent to 15 percent. And then to 4 percent. Not to mention the phone's temperature rises ridiculously when I use 3G.

I have already tried:

- undervolting the battery (no significative results)

- letting it drain completely and then charging again (did not work, battery still drains)

- clearing battery stats (no effect)

While charging, the battery jumps from 50% to 100% fully charged.

I am seriously considering buying a new battery, but I'm afraid it's an issue with the ROM rather than the battery itself.

Any other ideas are welcome. I need to solve this issue ASAP.

Thanks in advance.

Wipe the battery stats

Let the battery drain to 0% and let the fone to switch off

And charge the fone to over night

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] goblue30093:
The S4 has a locked bootloader according to Engadget..

If you're hoping to run custom ROMs in place of TouchWiz, you may have to wait for a little while since Samsung has confirmed to us that the bootloader is locked

Why would Samsung start doing this out of the blue? Their devices have always been very easy to root and customize. Seems a little odd that they would do this.
