Ok, so out of curiosity I've been trying to figure out if it's at all possible to mod the Stock android lockscreen to include the media player pulldown from the TW Glasslock.

Of course, not having any dev experience I am not having much luck. Just using some common sense, I know that replacing android.policy.jar with a modded one will enable the Stock lockscreen and also removes all TW features.

So I ran extracted both android.policy.jar files and ran the classes.dex file through baksmali to extract them. I was hoping it would be slightly more obvious, but then again if it were I'm sure it would have been done by now.

Anyway, I'll attach both sets of files in a zip format for those that think they would like to take a look.

Also, if anyone knows. Is the media pulldown from Glasslock dependent on the TW process starting, or is it's own process seperate from the actual TW lockscreen. If it can exist without the TW lockscreen then there should be a way to enable it.

Honestly that much editing in an intermediate language will not be fun. It's not that it's impossible, but ideally we would get the source code, and then we could change the real code and compile a clean version. I don't think it's going to be just a simple copy/paste or something, like the "stock lock" mod is.

I believe CM6 has this feature available, so maybe once that is available, we can either port that lock, or just use CM6.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bobbylx:
Thanks for the input. I kind of figured it wasn't going to be an easy job. I've dabbled in scripting and coding, but good lord looking at these files just made my eyes crossed.

I didn't realize CM6 had that either, probably be easier to wait on that or flockscreen from Anderweb, which I just read about.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Dblfstr:
Yes.

Try asking in the thread.

Basically you will just replace you current android build with this one. Except you will want to keep your data.img (for your settings and apps)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] RubiksInMyHead:
Hi,

yes i wannt keep it.

At the moment, i have backup'd anything on the SD-Card for test the rom without my Data.img.

The rom reboot after 10 sec android have started ... endless loop.

-> I stay @ 2.0 Release.. :P

Thanks,

[General Questions and Answers] jerrya:
Guys, I am working on my first theme, using HDWall for my Imagio running Sense 2.1 I was wondering if there is anyone willing to take the 128 and 64 icons for my slider and creating a transparent background. I don't have photo shop or anything like that. I got these from a website, and when I use photo editor to make transparent background, it doesn't work right. So I use paint to make the background a different color (these are black and white), but when I go to save, it makes the colors all shaded, so I spend hours on just one. There has got to be an easier way.

So I was wondering if anyone is willing to take these and do that for me? Attached is just one that I resized to the 128 and 64 required sizes, and they are all this way.

If anyone is willing to do that for me, I will pm you the remaining 18 (2 for each slider I use)

And if anyone is interested, once I get the sliders done, I will be more than willing to release the cab of Calvin and Hobbes to anyone who wants it, but only after I get it looking good enough for you graphic guys!

Thanks in advance!

Firetiger's advice is better for you to learn, but I'm ready to help:)
[General Questions and Answers] jerrya:
Thanks, but I tried firetigers advice, and I couldnt figure it out, so I am trying something.

I am using Microsoft Paint and PhotoEditor, and I may have figured it out. What I was doing was editing the jpg, which, when completed, would continue to fade the colors in and out. BUT when I converted it to png, I could then use another color to change the background in paint, then go back to photoeditor and tell the program to take that color and make transparent.

I just finished the last one (for me, I don't have icons for photos and music, since I rarely use those) and am going to build the cab and see what happens! If it doesn't look good, I will post all of them to your pm!

Thanks again guys, will see what happens!

Edit - Yea, it worked! I am not happy with the wallpaper I chose, but the icons look pretty good. I am going to see about doing some more improvements, but I will attach what I did, and for a first time with limited systems, I think they came out pretty good!

MetroStation Icons Pack [Version 2.19]

Icon replacement in Metro Style for your mobile device. The main icons are in png file format, so you can use it for Windows Phone and Android.

_____________________________________

What is a METRO

METRO is codename for Windows Phone Design System. It's modern, clean, light and open design with no shadows, glows or gradients.

The Design

The Design of these icons it's based on the METRO style, with cleared, straight forms and pure typography. Most of the parts are just basic shapes - circles and rectangles, combine in the best way.

What's in the package

There is 7 main sections, with total 209 icons*3 colours - white, blue and black (overall 627 icons). The files are 256 x 256px ico files (from 16 to 256px) and 256 x 256px png files.

Most of these icons are normal stuff for a computers or smartphones. There are included icons for web browsers, social networks, mobile operators, there are some standard software packages, system icons, and such as multimedia and for navigation systems.

The design of all icons, which are registered trademarks and logos belong to their respective owners.

How to use it

The png files are for Windows Mobile OS, Android, iOS and Linux OS. There is a lot of programs, that allows to change the icons of these OS.

The ico files it's for your Windows OS. Just replace the original icon from the Properties dialogue in any program or folder.

My recommendations for the background are - since the icons are with one solid colour, use dark bg for the white and blue versions and light for the black.

More Icons....

There will be more updates, more icons and colours, please write in comments what programs want to see in metro-style here, or in my deviantart page - http://yankoa.deviantart.com/.

I know you're probably inundated with requests, but here goes... How about a generic VOIP icon? I know there's a Skype icon (two!) but I use an app called Viber, and there's a lot of competition in this field. Just one icon that could be applied to a whole genre of apps. Right now a lot of devs are just using stylised dialer icons for these apps, so maybe you could come up with something more distinctive!

EXACTLY. I've looked around. There is an app called Copy-Paste it! Something like that. You like crop your screen and it copies the words in the screen. I heard it's inaccurate, and to be honest it still kind of is a pain in the ass. It costs money though :/. I've used a Blackberry before too and the copy/paste function is amazing btw.

Never mind, try to flash Stock rom again, but first place your device in boot-louder mode. (wile device is turn off, pres and hold volume down button, press shortly on the power button)

Connect your device to your pc, when you see "USB" mention on the bottom of your screen launch the stock rom application by Administrator.

PS Used the stock rom from the HTC website by using your own S/N!!

nevermind i got it to work.
[Vibrant Android Development] matt_stang:
One very annoying thing about the vibrant status bar (in ALL eclair ROMs) is the lack of visual feedback from selecting a notification item. Usually when you click a notification on stock, the item will turn orange. With the vibrant, this does not happen. The "pressed" state uses the same drawable as normal for notification icons. The same is true for the clear notifications button. I find this extremely annoying.

So, I went poking around in the framework-res.apk and found a typo in a status bar layout file. I fixed it so now it works!

EDIT: Oops! I posted the wrong file. It is actually "status_bar_latest_event.xml"

Sorry about that.

Here is the typo:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<LinearLayout android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="66.0sp"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<View android:background="@drawable/quick_panel_list_stroke_01" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="1.0sp" />
<com.android.server.status.LatestItemView android:id="@id/content" android:background=[COLOR="Red"]"@drawable/status_bar_item_background_normal"[/COLOR] android:focusable="true" android:clickable="true" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="65.0sp" />
</LinearLayout>

That's the whole file. The "typo" is in red. "@drawable/status_bar_item_background_normal" points to a .9.png file which is why the drawable simply stayed the same ("normal") even when you clicked it.

What the file SHOULD say is this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<LinearLayout android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="66.0sp"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<View android:background="@drawable/quick_panel_list_stroke_01" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="1.0sp" />
<com.android.server.status.LatestItemView android:id="@id/content" android:background=[COLOR="Red"]"@drawable/status_bar_item_background"[/COLOR] android:focusable="true" android:clickable="true" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="65.0sp" />
</LinearLayout>

"@drawable/status_bar_item_background" points to an xml file which is a selector that tells the drawable to switch according to the view's state (pressed, selected, normal)

I've looked at several frameworks and they all have the same typo in them. After I found this, I looked at a nexus one framework and that confirmed that this is indeed the way the file should read. Whether this was intentionally done by Samsung or not, I do not know. Although I'm assuming it was a mistake.

To use:

1. Download attachment "status_bar_latest_event.xml.zip" and remove ".zip" (don't unzip)

2. MAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR FRAMEWORK-RES.APK

3. Open framework-res.apk with 7-zip or winrar or whatever (DO NOT unzip it)

4. Copy status_bar_expanded.xml to /res/layout/ and overwrite.

5. Do this:

adb shell stop
adb push /path/to/framework-res.apk /system/framework/
adb reboot

Enjoy!

Thanks for figuring this out.

Any chance of posting the typo fix in the OP?

It would make it easier for those of us running our own customized frameworks.

Yeah I'll update the first post in a second. I'm not sure if it was a typo or not but it seems like Samsung would have fixed it in the latest releases and leaks.

[Vibrant Android Development] s0niqu3:
Hi again,

Quick FYI, if you want the "clear-all" button to show the pressed state, decompile twframework-res.apk and edit /res/layout/status_bar_expanded.xml

change the red highlighted text in the following to:

@drawable/quickpanel_btn_default

<Button android:textSize="14.0sp" android:textColor="#ffffffff" android:layout_gravity="center_vertical" android:id="@id/clear_all_button" android:background="[COLOR="Red"]@drawable/quick_panel_btn_default_normal[/COLOR]" android:layout_width="75.0dip" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_marginRight="6.0dip" android:text="@string/status_bar_clear_all_button" />

Then save and recompile.

Cheers everyone, =)
[Vibrant Android Development] matt_stang:
Thanks! I looked for that but didn't think to check the twframework again because the other fix was in the regular framework. I noticed in the regular framework the button code was fine but it didn't occur to me it might be in tw.
[Vibrant Android Development] Sh8dyDan:
------------------------------

I don't get why when I make changes to the twframework-res.apk file it always breaks the system with force closes.

phone - media - email all force close

I am using bionix 1.1

APK Manager 4.9

If I make any change to twframework-res.apk it ends in FCs.

When I tried to recreate from this tutorial its a no go.

I thought originally it might be a problem when recompiling, so I copied the modified files into the apk (I use winrar) but it still FCs.

The only way for me to have this work on my phone is to install it as it.

Any ideas?
[Vibrant Android Development] s0niqu3:
Hi,

Are your wiping your cache,

Dalvik-cache and fixing permissions before rebooting?

I'd say 95% of the time that solves fc issues for me when modifying system files.

Else I have no clue, I modify twframework-res all the time without issue.

Good luck though, cheers, =)

Help

Do you think you could post that xml file for us who are not so good at decompiling and using adb.
[Vibrant Android Development] Sh8dyDan:
Ok, I don't quite understand how to edit twframework-res.apk.

If you would, please, a quick run down of options I should be selecting when decompiling and recompiling.

As of right now i have found out that my recompiling is not reencoding the xml files
[Vibrant Android Development] s0niqu3:
Hi,

Do you use apk manager 4.9 to decompile?

If so, a straight decompile (option 9) is all I ever do for twframework-res.apk and it works fine. Now, when recompiling, if you start from something like bionix/hybrid/etc. base, its likely that they "cheated" when they replaced .9.png files for their theme, so you'll get errors when you recompile the framework.

So, here's my process if modding an already themed framework-res/twframework-res apk:

1) decompile apk

2) make my edits, try to recompile, if it errors, then:

3) Check the log, if its an error about a .9.png then:

4) decompile stock, non-themed apk from the rom version I use (JFD or JI6)

5) copy over the entire contents of the drawable-hdpi(-v4) folder to the apk I'm editing.

6) try to re-compile, 99% of the time, this works, since it seems most rom cooks like to cheat with their .9.png edits.

optional - 7) open the newly compiled apk and the original apk with 7zip and copy over the contents of the drawable-hspi(-v4) folder from the original/themed apk to my new compiled apk

8) zipalign apk

9) push apk to /system/framework

10) adb reboot recovery

11) reinstall packages to get into clockwork recovery

12) wipe cache, advanced wipe dalvik-cache and fix permissions

13) reboot

Hope this helps, cheers, =)
[Vibrant Android Development] s0niqu3:
Hi,

I don't really want to post my xml file for 2 reasons, (mostly for reason number 1 though.)

1) I made extra edits to it for my own personalized theme, and it might cause display issues for people using anything other than my own specific theme.

2) I'm kind of tired of people using somebody else's work and not giving credit. I see a lot of my battery icons used all over the place, and very rarely do people link back to the thread, or even say thanks in their OP.

I do this purely for fun (well, and to kill boredom time since I'm unemployed currently), but I also don't like people not giving credit to original content authors.

Anyway, sorry about that, cheers, =)
[Vibrant Android Development] Dugorf:
That is totally understandable. Thank you for the detailed instructions. I am just getting into making my own themes (starting just for me). I have used your battery mod for awhile and love it. I'm looking forwards to learning how to make that kind of thing myself.

Thanks again.
