And just how would you know that...seeing how you have 2 posts.

I'm not looking to steal anyone's work. DCD did an excellent job porting. That was something I didn't even know how to do three weeks ago and am just beginning to understand.

But that being said, I've given credit numerous times through this thread for his work. Maybe you guys can break apart OEMs and separate out the parts of a ROM in a matter of hours but I know how much time I took (since December 1, 2007 when I did a very shabby cricKet kitchen COMPLETELY BY MYSELF based on 1.12.651.1) to learn rather than just try to leech.

I personally broke down the OEM folders and a few of the SYS folders in this ROM. I went through and made numerous registry changes, wrote provxml files, and a few OEMs. Not to mention the hours/weeks I spent testing the ROMs and correcting errors and duplicate files. To say that I've completely stolen someone's work is unfair. If you feel more credit is due to you or to DCD then by all means take it. I sure appreciate your input, support, and feedback and respect your advice a great deal. Probably more than you realize. This is a hobby for me. I just figured others could enjoy it even if it's not as great a release as DCD's final release will be. I'm not looking for it to be. He provided a base and I'm learning and taking on the challenge of knowing the in's and out's of XIP Porting so I can do it myself in the future. But if you're going to complain of not giving credit where its due then please at least respect the time I've put into it.

I'm proud of the small role I've played in this kitchen especially the personal knowledge I gained but DCD if you'd rather I pull this kitchen down, I'll gladly do it. I'm not trying to step on anyone's toes. Just trying to give back what little I can/have learned with help to/from everyone in these online phone forum communities. Please don't take this the wrong way.

I'm not even going to waste my time saying a whole lot except that you and I both know all the times I've helped you out before when you PMed so please don't sit there and unnecessarily flame me. If you don't like the thread and it "concerns" you then move on and don't use it. Wait for his release if it makes you more comfortable. But don't go just to say something is not on level when you haven't even used it much less read all the thank you's I made in the ReadMe talking about BUILDING UPON OTHER'S WORK.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] 360discgolf:
blee,

I may have distorted what I was saying. First, I don't want to take credit from what you have done. You obviously know way more about ROM development than what I do. It is also obvious that you spent much time working on this kitchen. For that I commend you.

This is just kind of a touchy thing. You get into an issue of intellectual content intrusion. Unfortunity you kind of walk a fine line. I have seen this happen before in other forums where good people leave the forum because of stupid arguments. I would much rather see you two work together and share the brain trust as opposed to losing either one of your developments. It appears to me that we lack large levels of cooperation because of what ever reason. It would great to see big group colabratives. I bet we could really so some major developments with talented people who contribute to this site.

So, in closing my comments made earlier were only to say from looking from the outside in, I knew we were running into a situation where two knowledgable people were not going to see eye to eye. I honestly don't know either one of you, but I hope both of you will be open enough to discuss this, work together, and continue to be contributing members of this community.

Good luck to all!
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] 360discgolf:
Yes I agree blee has help me on more than one occasion. My comments were not thought out before typing in my first post. My only concern is for the good of the forum. I am removing my original post as it was typed unfairly. I really just want everyone who comes to this forum to continue to grow from eachothers experiences and findings. I have always thought that's the point of the forum in the first place is to share knowledge. So blee, I apologize to you for over reacting or reacting at all. It's really none of my business.

I hope all contributors keep up their great work in this forum so dopes like me can continue to learn.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] klmsu19:
yeh i think everyone needs to relax a little its jsut a kitchen/ROM its not life or death here. Its great we have a kitchen and if DCD wants to release his own and do different things cool, we have 2 choices! Its all for the good of the community. As long as no ones making money off eachother than i think everyone needs to take a chill and relax IMO

and i think the serial from the developer is a great idea be it a little bit of a pain (maybe one day can be an automated email or such). But thats what you have to do when theres dishonest people in the world who want to make a buck off your work. I think its a good idea to explore to keep it from being sold on ebay by scammers.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] blee0125:
No hard feelings. I stand by my post. If dcd wishes that I remove the kitchen from this forum then I will do so. If I don't hear anything then please let's get this thread back on track so we can make it better as a community. I need your help and feedback which doesn't happen unless you actually try the ROMs.

One thing that's already been mentioned is that AL_Bkgd.brn is in each of the following three folders. If you select a home plugin and the action screen together you will have a conflict running BuildOS.

OEM_brle_Cube_Icons_Blue

OEM_brle_Cube_Icons_Yellow

OEM_HTC_Action_Screen

This is resolved by:

Just manually delete that file from one of the folders either Blue/Screen or Yellow/Screen before you flash or delete it from all three and place it in OEMAPPS. I'll move it back to the OEMAPPS folder for next time.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] dcd1182:
nah, i think my point was completely missed, and i removed my comment because i knew it would just provoke a stupid argument. theres really no reason why i would want you to remove a working kitchen you provided the vogue community.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] deegimus:
Blee, I have to agree with RainFreak... The minimum post thing is not in the spirit of cooperation. I TOTALLY agree with you about someone taking your work and selling it! Those guys should be ferreted out and banned. Most of the good people on this site and others are here to collaborate and learn. Placing artificial hoops to jump through is counter-productive to the spirit of this forum...

With tremendous respect, but I thought you would like to know.

if you used imcokemans vogue unlocker, all you have to do is flash the OEM ROM back, and your device will be locked again.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diosdetiempo:
How does one remove strings from an APK? My SystemUI places an annoying overlay over the status bar whenever the phone's rooted, and I found out what strings cause it but don't know how to remove them.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RealWelder:
You would have to decompile the SystemUI with apktool and go to /res/values/strings.xml and then find the particular string(s) and just delete the text entry, leaving the tags in place because they have already been assigned a public id. Then recompile the app and push it back to /system/priv-app/ and change the permissions to 0644.

This will require root access.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diosdetiempo:
i'm useless at that sort of stuff. is it alright if i upload the apk?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RealWelder:
I would need SystemUI, framework-res, and twframework-res in order to install the framework and decompile the apk. I would also need to know what strings to change...can you post a screenshot as well?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diosdetiempo:
where are framework-res, and twframework-res located?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RealWelder:
/system/framework/ oh and twframework-res is only on Samsungs...other brands have others like LG is lge-res.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diosdetiempo:
is framework-res meant to be in apk format?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prashantp01:
If u want to remove any strings dont go by long methods. Just go to Andriodmanifest.xml and remove that line and recompile:laugh:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diosdetiempo:
how does one do that?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RealWelder:
That wouldn't be a good idea...if you edit the manifest you'd have to resign the app which would result in a bootloop or worse.

Yes the framework-res is an apk. It is all the resources for the framework. (Drawables, Strings, Id's, etc.)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diosdetiempo:

i'll be online for the next few hours so will refresh the thread every 5-10 mins or so just in case there is more you require
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RealWelder:
Here you go. I removed the strings and changed the red and yellow bg colors to transparent. Hope it helps. Make a backup before you overwrite the original SystemUI, just in case! Also, don't forget to change the permissions of the file to 0644.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diosdetiempo:
i'll give it a test for you. thank you very much
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diosdetiempo:
i should add. how does one change them to 0644?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RealWelder:
With your es file explorer. I don't use that app, but I know it's got that capability. What I would do is rename the modified SystemUI.apk to SystemUI1.apk and then copy it over to /system/priv-app/SystemUI/. Then long-press it and in the menu there should be an option for permissions or properties. I use root browser so it might be a little different but it looks like this.

After the permissions are changed, rename it by removing the 1 to overwrite the original and then reboot.

We could also do it with adb shell if you are more comfortable with that.

adb shell

su

mount -o remount,rw /system /system

chmod 0644 /system/priv-app/SystemUI/SystemUI.apk

reboot
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diosdetiempo:
you definitely did something! it's transparent now, but it's still detecting the root, which is weird. what do you think it could be?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RealWelder:
My guess is, that I changed it in the wrong values. I'll try again.

it seems that the system ui no longer works with that version.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diosdetiempo:
i did notice on your first edit tho that the text for the developer options would cover the clock. if the text could be deleted then that'd be an amazing fix. i could just be in developer mode always.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RealWelder:
Is this the new one?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diosdetiempo:
nah, the first one you sent. the second one gave me the black screen and no system ui. i did notice on the first one though that the "in use for development..." text was covering the clock and all. is it possible to remove that text? if so, that'd be the perfect fix since i'm always in developer mode for the fake gps programs
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RealWelder:
Nvm. I'm sorry, I just noticed what I did. I forgot to put the stock signature back on before I uploaded it. That's why there's no status bar. I'll have a new link for you in a second.

Thank you, it's working

now we are facing a much bigger problem, the notification icons aren't showing on the notification bar, i think that this problem is due to the warnings you've removed, because they were blocking the notification icons from the begining, and all we did was emptying the strings and changing the colors ... i think that fixing this problem need advanced modding ... anyway, thank you so much RealWelder !!!!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AbdouMinato:
It was showing a little icon for every notification and now it's acting like there's no notifications at all
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fe Mike:
Just curious, does the rom need to be deodexed to make those types of edits? Or is that just for making smali edits.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RealWelder:
Just for smali. If you guys could deodex it (or whatever the process is for OAT) I could take a look a little further to figure out why rooting gets rid of the notification icons.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AbdouMinato:
It's not the rooting that gets rid of the notification icon ... It's the warning you removed ... The red warning blocks the notification icons ... And we didn't removed the warning, we've just emptied the string of the warning and changed its color ... But the warning is still present and is still blocking the notification icons.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RealWelder:
I realize that, but when you root you get the warning. The warning is gone/transparent so whatever is underneath it should show through. The fact that your icons aren't, means that in smali when you root the device it removes that layout when it adds the overlay. We need to edit smali to correct it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AbdouMinato:
Yup ! that's it ... i think that editing smali could resolve this problem, unfortunatly, my knowledge is limited when it comes to modding, i'm trying to find the right lines to edit but i can't find them ! i'm so sorry :/

Anyway ! thank you for everything so far RealWelder ...
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] interestor:
I like my compact Z5 (international E5823) but the stock software is constantly updating, and updating the bloatware. The updates have slowly disabled all my apps. Plus it performs badly, I can rarely get cellular data now.

I am experienced with rooting Motorola and Nokia, but it’s so complicated with this phone. I rely on those DRM keys for the camera and fingerprint scanner.

I have Flashtool on my PC.

I would like to root it, maybe to run Adaway, but that is not mandatory. I mostly want the phone to perform well with cellular data and be able to control some other things like to eliminate the sound when I plug it in. Maybe I don’t need root.

What is the best way for me to gain control over the software to stop updates, block or eliminate bloatware, and be able to control sounds etc?
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dean F:
Go into the bloat, and turn off all the options regarding updates and notifications.

Use the System Tuner UI to get power notifications options and turn the notifications for the bloat.

Go into your data options, and turn off background data for the bloat.

Go into the software update and turn off the checking for updates, switch it to off, or manual.

You will not hear or see anything from your bloat again (whatsnew).

You will need to switch cellular providers if you want better 3g/4g data service.

No idea about sound when plugging it in. I have turned my phone to do not disturb mode, so it makes no sound.
