How to make "odexed" widgets transparent?

Hi, I am trying to make the AccuWeather widgets on my Note transparent, but so far no success. I suspect this is because the .apk is in /system/apps and, like all the apps there, it is odexed. I mean there are two files:

- AccuWeatherDaemonService.apk

- AccuWeatherDaemonService.odex.

I am root and have a terminal emulator, and have already tried replacing (using this method) the above-mentioned files with a "pre-transparented" .apk but so far this has just led to horrible results. I originally posted about it in this thread. Fortunately I have a CWM backup of the original rooted system and have been able to use this to return to the starting point.

It looks as if moving files or trying to install .apks isn't going to work on my device. I suspect this has to do with it "being odexed" but I don't really understand what the consequences of that are.

Can I make this AccuWeather widget (which came pre-installed) transparent using the tutorial earlier in this thread? If so, should I just follow the tutorial and should I do it for just the .apk or .odex or both? Or are there modifications to the tutorial for "odexed" apps?

Or do I just have to learn to live with non-transparent weather? Thanks for all or any help!

Added on edit:

In the .apk/res are only folders layout-large-xhdpi and layout-normal-hdpi both containing a file called slog_dialog.xml Contrary to what one would expect from the extension, these were not viewable or editable with Notepad in Windows 7. No "drawable", widget_BG or any .png

.

All help appreciated and thanked.

You did decomp with apktool, right?
[Android Themes] syncopath:
Apktool, aha, right, I'm off looking for it, thanks! I see it's even on our "front page" today!

I had just opened the files with 7zip as per the instructions. Off to investigate apktool, will post back on results!
[Android Themes] joeyfettucine:
Alright, LOL. Sounded like it. 7zip will work for pngs, but you need to decompile to read the xmls in an easily understandable code. Let me know if you need any help.

[Android Themes] daveyian:
Hi, thanks for the work, much appreciated.

I've been trying to mod xiialive lite (it's a winamp type player). I've been able to load the widget and it looks pretty much how I like it. I can search for stations, when you are searching you are no longer on the homepage with the widget but within the app itself, it works until I go to play the station and then it force closes.

In the apk I modified /res/drawable-hdpi/widget_bg.9.png

and widget_shadow.png.

I followed your guide of unpacking, repacking and signing the apk, I was successful with another apk I tried this on.

I saw your mention of 9.png files and I tried throwing widget_bg.9.png into draw9patch.bat both before and after deleting the pixels in paint.net. I was unable to remove any pixels with draw9patch.bat.

So I'm not sure what goes wrong, I'd appreciate a copy of xiialive lite that works but I'd also like to know if you can tell what I'm doing wrong.

cheers

I would love this for my Evo. I had your skinned Weather channel app, however i feel like it updates too often. (No way to set update intervals)

Is there a way you can make the widget background to the default News and Weather app from android?

Thanks
[Android Themes] Droid8492:
Could you also try and make the Google Scoreboard widget with a transparent background?

I liked the ESPN transparent widget, but for the same reasons as the Weather Channel app the frequent updates killed my Evo's battery.

You shouldn't need to delete any pixels in draw9patch. All you need to do is open widget_bg.9 in draw9patch and then save it. I'll take a look at the app for you though.

All right I fixed Pandora. I attached it here and I'll update the OP.

New York Times and GenieWidget probably are not going to happen, for various problems I'm having with both. NY Times has everything controlled by code and it's a bit frustrating for me, if anyone else can do it that'd be awesome though.

Via EVO on XDA app...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeLL116:
if you mean is it bad to leave the phone charging via usb when it's already fully charged.....no.....it's not "bad" as in it won't hurt the phone.

consequently, you could condition the battery to not hold as much of a charge if you never fully deplete the battery's charge or always keep it plugged in. It's always good to run your battery out as much as you can, and then fully charge it as much as you can.

hope that answers your question

lol....poeple on this forum are ruthless...funny though.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] awenthol:
Wasn't being "ruthless"...just genuinely curious what he's thinking.

And you're not supposed to run these batteries dead to "condition" them. They don't have a charge memory.

Via EVO on XDA app...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CTH-EVO:
Back in the olden days not so long ago, the rechargeable batteries were made from

liuthium ion, and had what were often refereed to as "memory". So running them "flat",

then charging them, produced a longer lasting battery. Today however, they are

frequently made from nickel metal hydride, which does not have those "memory"

properties, that the lithium ion batteries possessed. It is worth noting tho that many

of the ROMs available - including HTC sense, have "training" algo's that attempt to manage

the phones running resources in such a way, as to make the batteries seem to last longer.

But really, they just try to minimize the draw on the battery.

--Chris
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evohack99:
Nononono.. You should really brush up on your battery history, lithium ion and lithium polymer niether have memory, ni cad, or nickel metal hydride do have memory. Our phones, all cell phone run either lipo or lithium ion, I think they are lipo, I know this because I run rc cars that have a 250 dollar esc that you don't want to burn up, so I know a bit about these batteries.. But you are right on the roms they are becoming a bit better on batteries, but if your over clocking don't count on to much, but you are also right you won't hurt these to leave them on the charger or to run till dead.

i just got the captivate i rooted it today im a newbie to all of this so im still unsure of everything im doing i dont care about bricking it. i was reading the "how to load a custom rom" and im at the step where is says (please flash the stock kernel through ODIN first then do our How To Root procedure then come back to this to continue) im unclear about flashing the stock kernal

and what custom rom you guys use and why you like it
[Captivate General] avgjoegeek:
Simple, Cognition.. It is all in one package and it is very simple to install but it just seems to work.

Only other ROM I will be going to is cyanogen if and when it is released.

Um and I might be wrong here but I thought Odin was only needed if you had to revert back to a stock ROM before flashing?

Bah damn swype putting words in my mouth again....
[Captivate General] jamrck:
Ok I will check it out I think I I'm gonna check it out
[Captivate General] fiveoneooo:
Yea I would go cognition. It is what I run.

Very snappy and with the voodoo lagfix it is extremely fast.

I also reccomend the hsupa kernal if you dont use a bluetooth headset.

And 2.1.5 has proved to give me a very decent battery life.
[Captivate General] jamrck:
so if i want to try a different rom i have to flashback to the stock att rom then on to the new rom?
[Captivate General] jamrck:
i dont want to sound like a dump ass but what is hsupa kernal and i have to use a bluetooth headset at work
[Captivate General] startngate:
The HSUPA Kernel enables HSUPA data speeds on the Captivate, which AT&T has crippled on the phone. It's discussed at length in several posts in the developer section.

From what I have read, one of the bugs in installing it is that you lose Bluetooth, so it would be a non-starter for you.

Why does my Vibrant sets wrong timezone? My alarms didnt set off for 2 days so I noticed thru flaw that my time was messed up. It's set to Central when I am in Eastern zone. No where near central zone. I know many suggested to disable network time auto update but why is it doing that? Also when I disable auto change feature, it turns on by itself when I reboot my phone next time....Can I permanently disable auto time update or make auto time update work correctly please???

Is it 2.1 issue? model specific issue? or what? I mean having correct time is so basic thing in any phone.

I live in GA, about 40 miles from AL and I had this issue last year on my G1. When I would drive to work (away from AL) once I got a total of about 60 miles away the time would switch back to Eastern. It was absolutely consistent. I never figured out what was causing it and it resolved itself after about a month. My guess is that there was a TMO network issue.

Ok, so I've been trying to solve this issue since starting with my first Android phone, the Hero...

I work for a large enterprise corporation & our security policies are quite strict. I have used Blackberries, Palm Pre, WinMo all successfully with my employer, but Android just does not work! Ok, yes, I've been using TouchDown & it kind of works, but only with Exchange 2003 support running, ActiveSync will not connect.

I know our policies require simple PIN & remote device wipe, so is that what is blocking me from using the built in client? I read somewhere that someone has some sort of patch they applied that tricks Exchange into thinking it is a different type of device trying for ActiveSync & bypasses the simple PIN & remote wipe. Has anyone heard of anything like this?
