Hi

I have a Note 1 and I applied some CSC hacks for Note 2 listed in this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2033894

And works flawlessly, I have: keyboard subsymbols, camera shutter sound menu and exit menu in browser.

Nice attempt but the app only detects the 'exit menu in browser' as enabled ignoring the other changes.

Also do not forget for keyboard subsymbols hack a language must be chosen (the app miss the option to choose a language for subsymbols) using another tag, by example:

<CscFeature_Sip_EnableSymbolInSecondary>es;es_US;en_US</CscFeature_Sip_EnableSymbolInSecondary>

I'm attaching my others.xml file, maybe can help you debugging the mentioned problems.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] nagasgura:
I believe that I have fixed the change detection issue, it was caused by the fact that some of the lines in the others.xml had TRUE instead of true. It should work correctly now. Are you sure your phone doesn't also have a feature.xml file, because the file you included doesn't look like what my app would usually output. Anyway, I attached the new fixed version, please let me know if it displays correctly. I'll get working on the subsymbols issue.

Will these work for custom rom? When I'm running stock rom a few months ago, these work flawlessly by editing others.xml.. But now in liquidsmooth rom, I can't find others.xml nor csc folders :silly:
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] llawarta:
Thanks for the quick reply and fix.

Yeah my fault I copied from the other thread these values 'as is' and worked fine, but I recently notice the value of the tag CscFeature_Web_EnableAutoSimHomeUrlInProfile and it is on uppercase also, I didn't change that value, so the rom has it originally or it was generated.

I'm using stock JB german version (N7000XXLT4 N7000OXALT4 from dr.Ketan thread) rooted using PhilZ kernel.

There is no feature.xml, only a new file feature_backup.xml I believe created by your app.

I just tested the fixed version and detects the changes but applying some hacks the file generated seems malformed, the app create inside tag <features> another child tag <features> when apply changes, I don't think will work or am I wrong?

Attached a compare from original file and the modified
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] nagasgura:
Touchwiz roms only. Most of these modify the stock samsung apps such as the launcher, dialer, and browser.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] nagasgura:
Adding the extra <FeatureSet> tags will work fine, at least in my testing. If it doesn't work for you, let me know.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] MBariya:
If there is other.xml file, then no feature.xml file in CSC folder. This app will edit that other.xml file instead feature.xml file and feature_backup.xml is backup file.

Good app. Works perfect on stock MG1 rom. Hope some more features will come. :good:
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] eyecon82:
awesome..going to give this a try on my s4
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] llawarta:
Hi,

I just tested more deeply and works fine almost all supported CSC codes on my device. Great App!

Because I edited manually the file before use this app some values are being duplicated on every save, I think try to merge the before changes will result in a hell, worst if will support more CSC tags and features.

IMHO I suggest you this logic:

1. Exists backup the file? backup : skip

2. Import all the CSC (known and unknown) and keep it on memory

3. Edit known values or add it if not exists

4. To save dump CSC on memory to the file with overwrite

5. Jump to 1.

I think with this scheme you will avoid to merge changes. :highfive:
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] eyecon82:
also confirmed it works on my sprint sgs4

I did notice two discrepencies though with the s4

1. In that the app shows the search contacts by dialer as off, but I can still do it on my s4

2. "enable rotation control icon" in gallery was turned off, but it is already available on my s4

---------- Post added at 08:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:25 PM ----------

I'm not sure what you mean. I already had edited the CSC files manually to enable shutter menu and take pictures while on call (which is not an option in this app

and when i opened the app the first time, it showed as "enable shutter sound menu" as on, because I had already manually edited that CSC option

PLEASE, PLEASE make a S4 app for this!!
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] alankstiyo:
does it work with the s3?
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] guitardoc64:

I've been playing around with the features.xml file for a couple weeks now. Does this by any chance have the FM radio settings included? At work, so I can't try it out at the moment to see for myself.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] ttkyles:
Awesome that did it.you rock.nice mod

can you add in taking pictures while on call, and showing call duration in call logs?
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] shunsai:
These are the ones I've seen so far. I know what a few of them mean, but not all of them.

CscFeature_FMRadio_FrequencySpaceAs (Integer)

CscFeature_FMRadio_DefaultChannelAs (string)

CscFeature_FMRadio_DisableMenuAf (Boolean)

CscFeature_FMRadio_DisableMenuRds (Boolean)

CscFeature_FMRadio_BandWidthAs" (string)

CscFeature_FMRadio_DeconstantAs (integer)

CscFeature_FMRadio_RecordingVolumeAs (integer)

CscFeature_FMRadio_DisableRTPlusInfo (Boolean)

Default channel is usually 87.5.

BandWidth is usually 87500_10800 (76000_90000 for Japan, or 76000_108000 for World)

Frequency Space I usually see as 50 or 100

this app works perfect on my Korean Galaxy note II (i have a custom U.S. rom that is working flawlessly too)

the question is.. for the merging contact limit option

before i applied the change (using ur app), in the contacts list.. it used to show me the icons of the apps next to each contact, like Tango, Viber, Whatsapp, etc..

now after i apply the change, those icons are gone.. but when i tap on one contact, i see in the details screen, all the apps that this person has

is there a way to get those icons back on the main contact list, while having the change (unlimited contact merge) option enabled using ur app?

Thanks
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] uccoffee.forum:

Some suggestions from my side. I have tested these lines in stock MG1. If possible add these also.

1. To increase speed dial limit to 100.

<CscFeature_Contact_ExtendSpeedDialTo100>true</CscFeature_Contact_ExtendSpeedDialTo100>

2. To add call Button in contact and call log list.

Nice job!

But for my i9300 (stock rom) not working, any chances this tweaks working by editing others.xml?

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] nagasgura:
It does edit others.xml if it detects you don't have a feature.xml. Could you send me your others.xml file from /system/csc?
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] Magnumutz:
Any word on the subsymbols fix?

I've had the subsymbols activated BEFORE using this app.

And after using it, they're gone. I tried setting them from the app, but it doesn't work.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] nagasgura:
Try pressing the Reset to Default button and see if they come back, then add the other features besides the subsymbols. Could you send me your feature.xml file or others.xml file so I can figure out what the problem is?
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] Magnumutz:
I DID try resetting to default, but the subsymbols were still gone.

Here are the requested files.

The languages I use are: en_US and ro_RO.

I don't care about the others.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] nagasgura:
I don't see any files.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] Magnumutz:
Here they are, sorry about that.

I switched the Keyboard symbol option to see what it did and now I can't get my symbols back. How can I fix this?

EDIT: I see it's already being discussed.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] nagasgura:
Version 1.3

Here's the new version 1.3 of the app, with a Sound Settings menu. Anyone who couldn't get the shutter sound menu to work should be able to use this instead.

I'm also working on a fix for the sub symbols.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] zohawkish:
Nice app :good: if you want more hidden csc features you can find it in "framework2.jar" (com/sec/android/app). samsung use this folder to hide its HIDDEN features ;)

All the ones I tried worked on my BTU S3 running MG4 apart from the enable scheduled message, well I couldn't figure how to do it anyway.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] eyecon82:
do you recommend just doing an install (upgrade) over the last version or uninstalling it completely and then re-installing?

Also, I have noticed when you click the menu key and hit settings, nothing happens on my s4
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] nagasgura:
It shouldn't matter either way. And thanks for letting me know about the settings thing, I meant to remove that but I guess I forgot.

Just an fyi, I have a Sprint Note 2. I tried the app to see the effect. I had the white background on emails and the symbols on my keyboard before using the switches in the app. Afterward, my emails have black backgrounds and the symbols are gone from my keyboard. Resetting to default has not effect. No big deal because it is about time to factory reset the phone and wipe the gunk out of it anyway.

Thx for this great program

Please add future " use extra vol. for calls "

[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] osiedacz:
So, correct me if I'm wrong, but once you install and use this app, it replaces your original XML file with one from this app and then changes the settings as needed? I am asking because on my Note II i317 I already had some tweaks entered in the XML manually that are now lost since using this app. One, for example, is the AT&T NFC icon.

Edit: Forget this post. I see it is just modifying the existing XML. My NFC icon works just fine.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] irish-sid:
I have. Haven't found a decent replacement for the stock Samsung one. The prediction has never let me down, love the number row for passwords, easy access to voice, it shrinks itself and is moveable when using multi window...

It's just a fantastic keyboard and I'm annoyed with myself for tinkering with it.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] nagasgura:
It's probably the reset to default option that isn't working. I just released an update which might fix it, but in case it doesn't, here's how to fix it manually:

Use Root Explorer, ES File Explorer or a similar app to go to the /system/csc directory

Delete the feature.xml file

Rename the feature_backup.xml file to feature.xml

Make sure the file permissions on the new feature.xml are rw-r--r--:

Owner: Read, Write

Group: Read

Others: Read
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] irish-sid:
That did it. Thank you very much.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] osiedacz:
I have the AT&T version and mine are behaving opposite. Once I applied setting once from the app, my email app appears to have a black theme with white message body background. No matter how I toggle the switch. Prior to this, my email app was a light theme with white background.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] nagasgura:
For anyone having trouble resetting it, follow these directions:
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] osiedacz:
Yup, that worked and I am back to my original. Would you like me to post my original and modified feature.xml files, along with a screenshot of how my email program looks?

[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] faria:
Hi ,First of all thanks for all your hard work.

I have been using csc features in all kind of roms from android to windows for a long time so i had to try your app:D

When i tried your app in my modified stock ROM( latest note 2 uk rom) i noticed i had lost all my previous csc hacks, i had to find out why.

I my case you app is malformating the xml (feature.xml)file therefore rendering it useless, i have found where the problems are and editing the file all the features come back.

Attached are the files from your app and the one fixed so you can compare it.

other fixes....

enable camera on call is missing a more than(>)character and therefore rendering the the code lines below it useless, here is the correct code:

Suggestions:

in order to enable keyboard symbols for all languanges at once use this code:

Also here is a picture of the file created by your app with the errors pointed out, i hope it helps in improving the app, many thanks.

[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] elzamalek:
Is there any help for this ?
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] faria:
Thanks! Im glad I was of help. I have tested the revised version and im happy to report that it works.

If you need anything just let me know.

I can also report thst the app works in the galaxy s3 mini, with that in mind your app problably works with every Samsung device out there.

In future you may have to add a way of checking the device id ( buildprop) into you app, once the app checked the device model it would load the appropriate configuration file for it, this would be wise because some of the hacks that work in some devices will break others due to diferent build numbers etc.

Once again thanks and I cant wait to see where this app gets, it certainly has allot o potential.

That cannot be enabled via csc, the file you need to modify is called default_gain.conf and resides in the etc folder, ,perhaps in future the Op will add such support.

Attached is my modded file, download remove the .txt extension then copy the file to the etc folder in the root of the device and reboot, that should give you a boost.

Ps, please make a backup of your current default_gain.conf file before doing the above.

[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] eyecon82:
Few things

1. I noticed there are ads now. Please offer donate version without ads and I'll gladly pay

2. Will these changes still stay applied if we use the app to enable them and the uninstall?

3. I will post screenshots shortly with annotations showing what does not work on the s4, please consider making different versions of this for different phones
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] nagasgura:
Here is a donate version with no ads and no permissions: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.steinapps.note2hiddensettingspro&hl=en

Yes, the changes will stay applied if you uninstall the app. I'm definitely considering making an app specifically for the S4, the only thing holding me back is that it would be harder to test what works or not since I don't have the phone. I'll probably release it as a beta first to find out what works.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] eyecon82:
Thanks....just bought it

About the s4 testing, that is what we are for (the xda community)..I'm sure many of us will test it out for you and report back

and i take back about making a different app...just have it 1 app..and have it check the kind of phone it is and automatically have it for that phone, or have us choose by checking buildprop
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] nagasgura:
That's a very good idea. I can also probably expand it to many other non-samsung phones that way to make the ultimate all-in-one root app. I think I'm going to spend a good deal of time developing this.

Yes but your file raise the volume of ring tune but I want to raise the volume of the talking person after answering the call like this photo

I want it always enable
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] vladmir:
Not need always have this option enable. you can simple increase the volume output of the speaker.

Try this app to increase the levels in default_gain.conf, be careful! increase a little a bit and test cause to much volume can distort the sound and damage the speaker.
