[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ElAguila:
I have no experience with creating or editing themes so I thought this would be a good time to learn. I have the godzson taskbar and rosie theme that I would like to use. Unfortunately it resets the lockscreen to the default. So I extracted the com.htc.resources.apk file from the zip. I then extracted the 3 png's from your zip and replaced the ones in the com.htc.resources.apk file with them. I then put this file back into the theme zip. For this to work do I need to sign the zip file again using fresh's kitchen or will it work as is?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Easiest thing to do if you don't want to worry about signing, etc, is to just push back your modified com.htc.resources.apk back to /system/framework.

Then, just grab the zip in the first post that is the lockscreen only and does not affect the taskbar/launcher in any way, and flash that.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] pseudoremora:
You don't have to and shouldn't sign the actual .apk's themselves, just the update package that you'll be distributing.

You need to put the files back in there same folder structures -- so:

com.htc.resources and/or framework-res should be placed in /system/framework

and

roise should be placed in /system/app

You'll want to put the META-INF folder on the root of your theme folder and then zip up both META-INF and the system folder into a new archive called theme.zip This is the archive you will sign and distribute.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] sdotcarlisle:
i used fresh's kitchen to clear the lock cache, then to push the apk back into the right folder. Its the only way I could get to work, I think after you change the zip its not signed anymore.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ElAguila:
Thanks for all of the information. I have been wanting to try my hand at customization for some time now but finally got the information that I need to understand what goes on behind the scenes with android.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ghuqu:
Works great for me, thanks!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] gohamstergo:
I just flashed the apk-only zip (and had removed the items in /data/misc/lockscreen and /system/customize/resource as instructed) and it left me with a strange low-battery icon (that i can't even find anywhere, or its just streching "icon_battery_low.png") that is always on. As you'll see in the pic, I wanted to keep the bar (possibly replace the pngs later) but have a clear BG. Any idea why this icon is showing up?

Also, I noticed when is airplane mode "icon_locked.png" is showing up instead of the proper "icon_airplane_mode.png" so somethings definitely going wrong...
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ccapasso:
Hopefully this isn't violating any policies and if so I apologize. Several people asked for a tutorial on creating custom lockscreens. I made one a while ago for 1.5 based ROMs. The same concept applies to 2.1 with the files here, just more folders and a little different layout. I will be updating the guide with a 2.1 section, but for now, here is the link:

http://androidforums.com/all-things-root-sprint-hero/48610-guide-creating-custom-lockscreens.html

It is on another site, and I could post it here, or in the wiki. Whatever works. Again, my apologies if this is against any policy.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Can't imagine there is anything wrong with posting that link. Most of the links on AF shoot over to XDA anyway :)

Thanks for putting that together, this should help increase the number of people creating nice custom lockscreens for 2.1.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] gohamstergo:
any idea on my post above JsChiSurf? sorry to bug, just really want to get this working :D
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Just hitting the website today, so didn't see your post. That is definitely strange. Does that image stay there the entire time? That is the stock battery empty image that displays on the lockscreen when you indeed have an empty/low battery.

Also what ROM are you running?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Okay, after discovering myself while working on the clear stock lockscreen issue, I too became annoyed with the fact that the menu key essentially allows you to bypass the lockscreen, making it very easy to accidentally unlock your phone while in your pocket.

So, since I had the hood up on the stock lockscreen anyway, I went ahead and disabled the function calls for the 'menu' keypress. If you prefer this type of behavior, below are 2 links to flash just the lockscreen apk only, one with the clock/date, the other without (and thus with the Android icon).

Again, as mentioned, these just the HtcLockScreen.apk file(s), so you can flash these overtop of any of the zips provided in the first post of this thread, if necessary, or, if you already have the clear lockbar, flash these straight.

Clear stock lockscreen with menu key disabled

Clear stock lockscreen with time/date removed AND menu key disabled
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] gohamstergo:
Well I was hoping it wouldn't matter but I'll be honest with ya... I'm actually on an HTC Droid Eris running "Ivan's 0.8.1T2" rooted rom. I was my hope that, since the Hero is the same resolution and also on 2.1, that I'd be able to make this work simply. It would seem I was incorrect. The Eris community is much smaller and I've been unsuccessful in getting anyone to make a clear lock for it, so looked into this forum...

Still, if there is anything you might know that could help get this running, it would really be great.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Yea, that's a tough one, as it is "technically" not intended for a different ROM per se, and can have un-intended consequences.

However, I could certainly see putting a "kludge" in place by simply swapping out the low battery image in the apk you use with a transparent .png file. If everything else works, with the exception of of seeing that image, this suggestion would certainly do the trick, I would think.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] gohamstergo:
actually there are other issues that are equally confusing.. when in airplane mode, the icon shown is the Sim Lock icon. when a timer goes off, it shows the calendar icon. (maybe more, thats all ive tested so far) dont see how thats even possible if the apk is calling for a specific png, why that png is not displayed....really odd

the rom im using doesn't alter the lock at all, its really just a stock rom with bugfixes.

i guess ill try to convince an Eris dev to take a look and your apk and see if they can figure it out.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Yea, unfortunately, it seems it is just not compatible. Sorry.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] gohamstergo:
sorry double post..see below
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] gohamstergo:
Do you think you could list what all you changed in the apk? (the original clear apk with clock) perhaps i, or someone, could duplicate the steps on the stock eris apk.

I sam w few videos about desire, and in MWC 2010 desise has 3 pins, little connectors near the microphone, but released models hasn`t. I wonder what was that or why they cancel this connectors. You can see connectors at this video:

guy asked htc agent what is it? that 3 pins connectors? it is charger, some dockstation or something ealse, he says " we will see" wow ;) ... as you can see, we do not see :)
[Desire General] scotch whisky:
The HTC desire can be charged via the micro usb port so the extra charging contacts didn't make it to the shipped version. I expect the "value engineering" guys decided to save a few pennies here.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] yotamotenai:
Hi everyone,

I recently installed a rom for omnia i900 with Manila 2D.

I still have not figured out how to change the link for applications on the homepage.

For example if I wanted to change the calendar with another which file should I change?

I looked at the file homesetting.xml but I think it is only possible to change the look and icons.

Can you help me?

thank you very much
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Branco285:
My current rom is ahmedfikry WWE with radio version: 1.71.09.01 and protocol version: 25.75.40.02.eMoH

When someone calls me or when i try to listen music via the speaker it has horrible sound.

When someone is talking on speaker i can't hear him, same for music. :eek:

also if i update to a new radio only will everything reset? (hard reset)

Can someone help me out please.

~Branco285
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dcarr622:
The speaker isn't great, but it's not terrible later.

Do you notice this while running stock radio/ROM? Try a few radios and see if the same problem occurs.

Flashing a radio does NOT impact your ROM or data, it's completely separate.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Branco285:
Trust me the sound is

horrible!

When i brought this phone it has awesome good quality sound.

Now it has very weak music with a "ggggggggggggggggggggggggggggrrrr" on the background, i've changed some radio's but none are working.

I've flashed with HardSPL 3.56 with radio 1.71.09.01.

I'm sure there is a possible fix for it but i can't find it.

Help me please. :confused:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ChumleyEX:
try another radio
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Branco285:
Ive already tried about 10/15 different radio's.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Mr. Clown:
Try to flash back to a stock rom and see if that solves the problem, if that doesn't work maybe it's hardware. Maybe your speaker is on his final journey.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dcarr622:
Yeah I don't think these speakers last forever, especially if you're cranking it constantly, but should go for a couple of years.

I know my vibrator is sounding pretty crappy and loose lately, I guess it's just a matter of heavy use.
[Desire General] gurdz:
i used to have an iphone before and when i took and photo and wanted to send it to someone it would automatically adjust the file size of the photo and send it within seconds.

Is there a way to do this with the desire? my photo sizes are normally just over 1mb which is a little to high to send via email, on the iphone the file size was the same but it would resize it for mailing purposes.

thanks.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Exa777:
Ahem...okay il give alot of details to try to make it clear and easy for you guys so i can get some help

i have xPeria X1 running Hard-Spl 0.72 Olinex

i Flashed my Phone last night and i fell asleep before the update finished...i assume it did but the battery ran out on it, without me taking it out and like reset the phone ( Complete the process )

so this morning when i woke up i tried turning on my phone and it wasnt working..i charged it a little and i got the 3 color screen ..so i reflashed quickly..(didnt think about it...and )with the USB plugged in ...and it failed at like 6% something around that

Every single time i try to flash with the MicroSd

it stop after a few secs and i get some numbers (0018003) with an Error message saying Update terminate update Failed

i tried to flash it with the computer it get stuck at 6% and says it lost connection with the device.

i have a Sandisk Card...ive been flashing Here And there without problem before

its formatted Fat32 and everything i tried other Roms still failing at 6% everytime
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] xmoo:
Try to reflash the rom you was flashing in the first place.

Mayb it is locked, cause it needs a serten file from that rom.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] ted presley:
Have you tried to hard reset it?

Fully charged it

And try to enter the bootloader to flash again?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Exa777:
yes i did and no sucess

@xMoo

i did that a few times and it didnt work still anyways

what im thinking is that i screwed up something in the Read Only Memory of my phone..else it should allow me to flash to stock at very least...

and also i flashed back to Stock SPL and now i cant Flash it back to Hard SPL

i get a Error message saying Lost comunication with the phone bla bla with a tutorial to reput the phone into boot loader mode
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] mobilkungen78:
try agent47´s task29 that might help
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Exa777:
Im trying atm...so far its been 10mins and its stucked at 0%....i cant flash anything =(

Edit... it Gave me update Error 262
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Musse_1:
are you able to enter the bootloader/tricolour screen ? if so remove sd card.

now on your PC use "X1_RUU_ROM_UpdateUtility" with any ROM image (remember to rename rom img to ruu_signed.nbh), follow steps on ROMUpdateUtility, you will be asked to connect phone (bootloader screen) on 2nd step.

I hope it helps;)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] eaburger:
I Hope this help you!

In one occasion I suffered a similar problem and the issue was that the Memory Card was damaged, and when the Phone Start and tried to read this it "stuck" reading this.

Try to start the phone without the memory to see if this work.

Regards.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Exa777:
Actually My phone only boot in bootloader mode.

Any any any utility that flashes my phones memory fails

SE update utility= failed stop at 15% and wait forever

Flashing SD Method

Flashing Stock Rom /Sd Method

Flashing Another Stock rom /SD method

Flashing HardSPl back and for from stock to olinex 72

Anyways Seus updater put me on spl78..but fails when it comes to the OS @(15%) Like

I just need to Fail Flash one of the Stock rom to go back to spl 0.72

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mbarry55:
Anyone else having an issue where sometimes your phone will ring, sometimes it won't? It always shows a call coming in but I don't always have sound with it. It;s about 50/50. Is there a known fix for this?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lea Ann:
Speaker muted/mode in silent??

I am also having the same issue since rooting to 2.1. What I've found is that when a call is incoming, it goes to "speaker is muted". Then I find that my phone is in 'silent' mode. When I go to settings and change it to 'normal' mode, it will ring for an incoming call but the speaker will mute and I cannot hear the ring. What is causing this and is there a known fix?

Thanks,

I have seen a few people saying that darchs roms have virtually no keyboard lag compared to the sprint builds. Has anyone come up with a good solution or app alternative in the sprint 2.1 roms to reduce keyboard lag. I love the new roms but the lag is slowly eating away at me. I must have gotten spoiled.
[Hero CDMA General] R2D2-AKU2:
Yes, I agree. Perhaps it has something to do with the voice input? The keyboard was soooo smooth on DC1.

can anyone confirm that the older keyboard is faster? I'll flash that ****er in a heartbeat if it is. I might try swipe too, I see that swipe light link up, looking pretty tempting.
[Hero CDMA General] Tikerz:
The new XDA-modified keyboard definitely has more lag than the stock HTC keyboard.
[Hero CDMA General] mrinehart93:
Actually no. Both keyboards gave me ridiculous lag in the new 2.1's. However, ever since I applied a new Rosie theme through MetaMorph, believe it or not, I have little to no keyboard lag now.
[Hero CDMA General] blu3g:
Well I did notice that the new keyboard lagged very bad, so i ended up going back to the stock keyboard. It still has some lag, but it is noticeably faster than the new one.
[Hero CDMA General] takmsdsm:
Turn off any kind of feedback (vibration and sound) if you have not done so already.
[Hero CDMA General] radxcoresteven:
with all types of feedback off, I still lag on the new keyboard. I did slightly on the old one, but this is noticeable.
[Hero CDMA General] govno64:
I agree, the new, updated keyboard is significantly laggier. And smiley's and the voice to text button (which isn't even very accurate). I would obviously be ideal is someone could come up with a solution to make the new one less laggy.

In the mean time, does anyone have a good tutorial for switching back to the old keyboard?
[Hero CDMA General] mrinehart93:
Give me a minute or so and I'll have a batch script that'll get the new one back for you... You DO have the old keyboard, right? Or do you need that too?
[Hero CDMA General] mrinehart93:
Batch script to reinstall old keyboard

Hey. Here is the batch script as promised. Make sure you put the script, as well as the old HTC_IME.apk in the SAME DIRECTORY that ADB is located. If you need the old HTC_IME.apk, you can google for it or find a ROM, extract it, then go to /system/app and copy it out.
[Hero CDMA General] showbo:
Hmm, now that it was mentioned, 1.0 did have almost no lag with the keyboard. I am back running 1.5 right now. Waiting for OEM 2.1.
[Hero CDMA General] dondadah88:
i agree. this keyboard lag is pissing me off. i can't take it.

if there a way to allocate some resources to the keyboard. i don't use the vibration but i do use the sound. it makes me know that i pressed something and makes my feel more secure when i am pressing another button so the sound is a must for me.
[Hero CDMA General] nutswillkillme:
Flipz put a zip on the first page of his fresh Rom. I flashed it a little while ago. It's a little bit faster, not a ton though. I'm sure someone will have it running quick soon enough.
[Hero CDMA General] dondadah88:
can you explain this keyboard a bit more???

i would like to try it out if possible. i like the smileys but i only used it twice and i like the voice command but i only used to to show it off.

I use shapewriter, and it's just as quick as it was on any other rom, even stock. and I can type (well, shape) much faster
[Hero CDMA General] Dan330:
Hi guys

Yes.. there is a bad lag...

I found a small fix

there is a "pop up" setting in keyboard setting

it is set to 750...change it to a lower setting. I have mine on 300.

Also change the vibrate length to 15 and enable it..

This helped my lag... but itis not gone!
