look if you have java installed correctly & also install a proper framework 1st or try with other framerworks

say you want to modify browser icon, 1st place a modified png in mipmap-hdpi/mipmap-mdpi according to your device naming com_android_browser_ic_launcher_browser.png

open a new xml in xml folder

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resource-redirections>
<item name="mipmap/ic_launcher_browser">@mipmap/[COLOR="Red"]com_android_browser_ic_launcher_browser[/COLOR]</item>
</resource-redirections>

redirect it in redirections.xml

<package-redirections android:name="com.android.browser" android:resource="@xml/com_android_browser" android:minSdkVersion="16" />

done (red colored texts should be same)
[Android Themes] KopiJahe:
Already done that, the launcher icons are not changing -_-

All other icons changed, but not launcher icons

Check out my source at github here
[Android Themes] claytonjn:
I posted in the XThemeEngine thread, but this may be a more appropriate place to post this question.

There's a couple specific redirections I'm having trouble with on the theme I'm making for my S4 with TouchWiz. I'm trying to make the status bar icons actual white, rather than the dimmed default color.

In SystemUI in res/values/dimens status_bar_icon_drawing_alpha is 100.0% by default (when I made a CM theme for my Galaxy Nexus it wasn't 100.0% by default and I was able to redirect it to 100.0% to make the icons fully white.) so that isn't the issue.

I also see notification_icon_area_alpha and system_icon_area_alpha in res/values/dimens which are 0.8. I don't remember seeing those in the SystemUI from my Galaxy Nexus, and from the name I'm pretty sure those need to be changed to 1.0 or 100.0%. The problem is, when I add a redirection for those two items SystemUI constantly FCs, even when it's redirecting to the default 0.8 value.

Can anyone give me any hints as to why those particular redirections are causing the SystemUI to FC constantly? I've attached my com_android_systemui.xml and dimens.xml for reference. The lines in com_android_systemui.xml that are commented out are the ones causing the FCs.

I also have a logcat of the FCs here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2LdpmUr7HYmM0VWWnFNUnRsNDg/edit?usp=sharing but I think there are some errors in there from other Xposed modules so I'll try to get another later today with all other modules disabled.

Thanks!

EDIT: I uploaded a bunch of stuff here: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B2LdpmUr7HYmUm5oWERNUVFpckk&usp=sharing

There's the old logcat and a new one with no other modules or anything installed. There's also two apks and two zip folders. The zip folders are the entire contents of my project folder, so everything that gets compiled into the apk. The no FC zip folder and apk have those three lines commented out, so basically they aren't included in the apk. The only difference in the FC zip folder and apk is that I removed the comment tags from the three lines causing the FCs before compiling the apk.
[Android Themes] claytonjn:
Also, does anyone happen to know why my theme installs fine on my Galaxy S4 with 4.3 but not my Galaxy Note 10.1 with 4.1.2? I checked all minSdkVersions in the XMLs and they're all 16 which should be 4.1+. On the tablet it shows the install dialog then says Application not installed. Is there a resolution check or something I need to change?

Thanks!
[Android Themes] Saqib Nazm:
[MENTION=4325794]JamMasterClay[/MENTION] 1st of all, you cannot edit/modify any xml with X-Theme Engine, only pngs

"Application not installed" usually happens because you may have any a fault in redirections in any xmls, also keep another thing in mind, do not change anything not even normal pngs from the apk with winzip/7zip, always decpompile & make changes. That could be a reason for not working application
[Android Themes] claytonjn:
I did not realize that no xmls could be redirected, I thought it was only styles.xml so that may be the problem. Hopefully that will change some day but it seems that development of the XThemeEngine has ceased which is quite unfortunate. I am however compiling the apk and not just replacing the pngs in the apk, so that's not the issue. I'll try with the xml redirections removed and see what happens.
[Android Themes] claytonjn:
I removed all of the XML stuff but it still won't install on my tablet? If you have time, could you do me a huge favor and look over my project files and see if you can see something that's preventing installation? I have a feeling it's something in smali which I have absolutely no experience with...

Here's the project files: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2LdpmUr7HYmME9xXzVRd1hvRWM/edit?usp=sharing

Here's the compiled APK that installs and works on my S4 but not my Note 10.1: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2LdpmUr7HYmQ1lxb3pOM29oTjg/edit?usp=sharing

NOTE: The above files still have some XML redirections and comments but removing those didn't solve the problem so no sense uploading new files.

Thank you for your help, or anyone else who may be able to figure this out!

EDIT: Nevermind! It was a problem with signing the apk in APK MultiTool. I signed it with testkeys and it installs. It's still strange that it worked on my S4 and not my Note 10.1 though.
[Android Themes] alvin551:
Just a heads up guys you can add modified XML in to xtheme but that xml at only work on certain devices
[Android Themes] claytonjn:
Do you happen to know which devices and/or why? I'm trying to redirect the xml for the battery icon to have 1% increment but it isn't working.
[Android Themes] alvin551:
Yeah I'll have to have a look for you on the weekend if I can. Just remind me
[Android Themes] dully79:
xml's are not a problem, i have over 100 in my Simplicity theme.

You can define what xml's get applied depending on firmware version and device make/model.

If you need any help or info post in my thread that's linked in my signature.:good:

Really good tutorial mate +1 But l have some issue when l try to build theme.apk with changes.Here is the log from VTS
[Android Themes] Saqib Nazm:
This is the main problem

invalid resource directory name: C:\Users\Korisnik\AppData\Local\Temp\541AAA\res/drawable_xhpdi

without knowing what you are trying to do I can't assume further what might be the actual problem.

Try Downloading & decompiling my Green_hulk apk and get help from there as it is complete & working apk

If you are making for any base like ICS/JB/KK make sure you have the same base framework files in apktool folder in Documents and Settings as 1.apk, 2.apk

hi again.

working on a theme for moto x. I decompiled systemui and went into androidmanifest.xm . there is no android:minSdkVersion. here is what it says manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" "http://schemas.android.com/apk/prv/res/android" android:sharedUserId="android.uid.systemui" coreApp="true" package="com.android.systemui">. do you have any idea how to setup redirections.xml. thanks for any help.

ps moto is running 4.4.2
[Android Themes] Saqib Nazm:
that should be 19 then
[Android Themes] monkeytools:
Thanks that is what I was thinking. Compiled it as 19 but didn't change anything. I'm not sure why yet but may haft something to do with file structure. Systemui isn't in app folder it's in priv-app folder.
[Android Themes] neroyoung:
Hi,

The AndroidManifest.xml code you sent means that the namespace used in your android system UI app follows given two schemes and it's a core app of kitkat that will be in system/priv-app folder. This modification is by moto to grant SystemUI.apk file admin level permissions. and the shared UID is to let other app work as combined component of SystemUI.apk file as if they are one with SystemUI. Here moto hasn't specified min/max/target sdk version (?) so it is 19 for kitkat.

If it's still not working then you will have to add sharedUID permission for themer apk and install it in priv-app folder so that it will have WRITE_XXX_XXX type of permission. For more help request ruqqq@xda-developers for more support on Kitkat for themer, he might help you over default runtime environment of kitkat may be .

its strange I did the wifi png and it worked. but the data png will not change. it may be something I am doing. thanks for the help. I am looking more into it. I wish they would pull all the png that are not being used out. they could make the os so much smaller. again thanks

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] clumsywob:
Galaxy S2 froze last night when charging so I pulled the battery to restart it. Now it will only boot to the "Samsung Galaxy SII" screen and no further. I can ONLY get into download mode. Trying to boot into recovery takes me to the same "Samsung Galaxy SII" screen and no further. I've tried flashing KIES_HOME_SPH-D710.GB27_D710SPRLS1_1014481_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5 that I found in another thread. ODIN says successful, however problem still occurs. Any ideas to get this back up and functional or is this pretty much hard bricked with no repair?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Gil81:
You said ( galaxy s2 )..I just want to make sure you're in the right forum. This is the epic 4g touch forum ( sprint variant of the s2 )..

If you have an epic 4g touch..then I would suggest getting a stock rooted one - click from rwilco12's repo...there is a sticky thread for it in the android development thread...

Use Odin to flash one - click and see what happens....just make sure you're in the right forum...

Let me know.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] clumsywob:
Sorry, Epic 4G Touch. I tried a couple different stock rooted ROMs from rwilco's site and no luck =(. Same results each time. Flash is successful via ODIN but then phone reboots and sticks at Samsung Galaxy SII screen

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Gil81:
[MENTION=2963705]clumsywob[/MENTION]

Have you given the battery the old spin test...

Also...have you tried the stock ROM that was on it when it was new...

And try a different version of Odin...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bilgerryan:
Also make sure you have the Samsung drivers installed on your computer
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] clumsywob:
What is the "spin test"

I've tried an official ROM from Samsung's site and still get the same results. Samsung drivers also installed on my system. I've tried ODIN 1.85 and 3.07. I'm out of ideas.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Gil81:
Take you're battery out and put it on a flat , level surface...now give it a spin..lightly. If it spins more than a couple times . its probably bad.

You should be able to see if it has a bubble to it...Just a thought...I've read about batteries doing some funny stuff.

If its not you're battery than I'm lost...but I'll look around and think on it and get back to ya

Don't give up...if you have download mode we'll figure it out...you could also try some different drivers...I've never heard that making a difference on this phone..but it has on my grab 10.1
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] patrao_n:
Try flashing a kernel. Try the el26 kernel made by chris41g. It can be found in original development section I believe. If it goes through try flashing a new rom after either by cwm or odin. Goodluck.

[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Assem Sherif:
Hey guyz, yesturday i ran into the wierdest problem i've seen in my android modding career....

Me and my brother both went to get new SIM cards (same provider as our old ones). My phone is Ace "i" and my brother has an s2.

So we got the new sims and i popped open my phone inserted the sim and BAM.... Bootloop....

I removed the sim and it worked fine... :what:

I put the old sim... Or even my brother's old sim and they work too.

I tried my brother's new sim which works well for him and it also bootloop'd my phone...

Im sure its not the sim's fault as both the new ones work well on galaxy s2, my father's galaxy Grand, and even my brother's Z10.

BUT they also boot loop my youngest brother's galaxy Y, which has an android 2.3.6

So does this problem occur only to gingerbreads? Why?

Things i tried:

1- formatted my phone... And also flashed a fresh soft from odin.

2- tried to follow a "fix" i found saying something about mobile networks but that option isnt on my phone :banghead:

3- (this is the important one)

I found plenty of people who used this 1 fix that worked on their phones for the same prob...

Dialing *#*#4636#*#* and going in phone info...

Then changing the "WCDMA preffered" to something else....

But as soon as i tap on another option as "CDMA auto" for example, it automatically changes back to "WCDMA preferred" (i dunno why but thats how it happens)

It only accepts being set to "GSM only", "WCDMA only", or "WCDMA preffered" but it still bootloops that way.

Sorry i made you read all that but its really wierd so i wanted to mention every detail that might help... And i probably need an expert here....

Plz HELP?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chumpy90:
Hello,

As you can see in the title I have a problem with my samsung galaxy s2. Until 2 days ago, everything was working fine. My phone was connected to pc via USB cable. As I was working as it was poping up with the autoplay.

My brother did walk on the room and "took it in his legs"(if you know what i mean).

Problem:

Now the phone is only charging at PC via usb. I am not able to do it to connect via usb storage or any other way. I did buy an usb cable but in vain.

What i have tried:

-buy a new usb cable

-reinstall usb drivers from xda/samsung/google/kies/

-clean the usb

-clean the usb from phone

-#7248... method

-tryied to connect on virtual machine with windows 7(hoping for autoinstall autoplay)

-update windows media player

-debug onn, debugg off

I am using Win XP sp3. Also after unistall and reinstall the drivers i get the message with usb not reconized and windows asks me to search the drivers for Multimedia controller and multimedia video controller.

Note:

Multimedia controller and multimedia video controller are asked by Windows only after I connect phone to pc when reinstalling usb drivers.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Replace USB board/port (but you need to get the correct part - search for similar threads to get the info you need; this has been discussed here a lot this year).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snailer:
What version of Android are you running?

If it's 4.22 or 4.3 then go to Settings/Storage. click 'menu' and change USB settings on the phone from MTP to USB/Camera/PTP

Then it should show up as an external usb device.

XP is bad at recognising MTP (media device) so just set it to register as a Camera or usb storage in settings.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chumpy90:
I am not using android 4.22 or 4.3. I am using android 4.1.2 and i do not have that option.

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 30Seconds:
So my brand new 24 hour old Xperia Z1 will not start and only goes to a blank screen with the backlight on. It does show the SONY splash screen before this for a second.

The only way to shut it down is to do an up volume and on button combo or to hit the red reset button.

I've tried starting with the SIM and SD Card out but it doesn't seem to make a difference.

The phone has pretty much not been used at all so I am a bit shocked. Is there any thing I can try? It was working last night.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregbradley:
24 hours out of the box, just send it back for a new one.

first boot up, upgrading apps..there is loads that can causea long boot, but nothing that needs a thread about a bootloop
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 30Seconds:
This is one of the fastest phones on the market and this shouldn't be happening. After I did my restore I set up again and synched and auto-updated apps and I had the same problem. I then tried deleting all of my uploaded apps one by one until they were all gone but this didn't help and the boot times were still about 5 minutes, often with the phone booting without remembering the brightness setting or even not booting at all.

So I did a factory reset again but this time did not account synch on setup or auto update apps and that seems to have fixed it for me. The phone is very fast and boots in under 30 seconds now, and runs without any lag whatsoever. I wish I could identify specifically what the issue is but so far no luck.

If your efs backup is tar.gz format , just unpack it with winrar or 7zip , you'll get efs folder upon extraction just delete phone's efs folder contents and copy extracted efs backup folder contents to phone with root explorer and reboot.

That's it.
