Can someone post a download link because i tried signing up twice and i cant get the conformation email. Somone please help.

Give it time. It will send you link. Posting download link is frowned on.

Dialer text color

I am trying to change the dialer text color from black numbers and gray letters to blue. I have decompiled and made color changes in different areas, which I thought were the correct areas. But when I try to flash it, it never installs. All I get is a box that says 'Phone' in it. So, is there a certain trick to themeing a dialer button text color?
[EVO 4G Android Development] tommytomatoe:
Which xml are you editing? Should be res/values/styles.xml. keep in mind there are two apks. HtcDialer.apk and also Phone.apk.

Lastly, can you shoot a screenie for what you mean by a box with phone in it?
[EVO 4G Android Development] sw10475:
That was the first xml I tried to edit. I edited these lines with my blue text color:

style name="ThemeLaunchBackground" parent="@style/Theme.HTCBlack">

<item name="android:colorBackground">#ffffffff</item>

<item name="android:textColorPrimary">#ff000000</item>

<item name="android:textColorSecondary">#ff333333</item>

I can try to get a screen when I try flashing this again. But all it was, was a popup box (just like if you theme an app and hose it up and you get a popup that says error loading app, or something like that. I have gotten that plenty of times in my learning process).

These are the steps I have done:

Decompile

Edit the xml using Notepad++

recompiled

signed

zipaligned

zipped it up and flashed in recovery
[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
Passive observer here. You might want to try not signing the apk, especially the htc one. Usually system apks don't get signed. There's plenty of small tricks and got-chas to remember. Good luck.

Sent on the go, from my evo.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sw10475:
I will give that a try tomorrow, thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tommytomatoe:
Just piggy back on what coil said, you never resign a system app. You need original sigs for it to work. If you resign one system app, you will need to resign all system apks and framework files.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Except in 4.62.........:rolleyes:

Great... i. Changed htclockescreen.apk to htclockscreen.apk.bak so i can check out the vanilla lockscreen, but now its stuck on the vanilla lockscreen even after i changed it back to htclockscreen.apk

[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Try deleting both the apk and odex htclockscreen out of system and then push it back to system with adb.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jason Black:
Can i just use root explorer to push it back to system/app?

[EVO 4G Android Development] tommytomatoe:
Wait a minute...did mik add my services.jar hack that disables signature verification to v4.62? BTW, thanks Pendo for showing me that hack in the first place!
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
I don't know exactly what he did or where he got it from, but yes, he did mention that signature verification was disabled.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Yes. Be sure that the permissions are set properly. They should be the same as the rest of the files in that folder. And be sure to reboot afterwards.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jason Black:
So run fix permissions on rom manager?

Sent from my CM 7 Monster Evol.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jason Black:
Ah wtheck... might as well just install the rom again and then reinstall the theme. That was my fix for everything when i used to use cm 7 lol.

Sent from my CM 7 Monster Evol.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
No, it's not such a big deal. In Root Explorer if you tap and hold on a file, you can click on "permissions". That's what I'm talking about.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
And do that to one of the existing files in there first. Should look like this.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jason Black:
I went through and installed it again. Then i moved dalvik to sd through link2sd now i cant install apps lol.

Sent from my CM 7 Monster Evol.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Why are you moving your dalvik? You are on 4.62 right? Since its odex I don't think there is any dalvik cache, other than what your apps you install from market create. At least that's how I understood it. I've never moved dalvik since 4.5 cuz it was where it needed to be by default. Again that's how I understood it so I could be completely wrong. Jade will correct me if I am wrong.

Ps. If he hasn't already. :P
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
+1. There is only dalvik for user apps on an odexed ROM. Although, since I have a lot of apps, I usually move it to the cache partition. I don't see how moving it would make you not be able to install apps though, unless you ran out if space :confused:.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jason Black:
Yah i have like 314 apps. How did you move dalvik to sd?

Sent from my CM 7 Monster Evol.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
I didn't. I moved it to the cache partition. Just type this in Terminal Emulator:

su (enter)

a2sd cachepart (enter)

And it should reboot by itself.

Thanks!

No problem. Keep us posted.
[EVO 4G Android Development] OstrichSak:
I'm running your v3.0 ROM and the translucent Gmail & Market look cool but is a bit distracting, especially my Gmail inbox. I read this is the newest Gmail (2.3.4.1) but is it also the most current Market? I assume these are black/blue & match my current theme in v3.0 too, right?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
I don't believe that file is for 3.0. It was from the old theme which was deodexed. Were you the one who asked about this on http://themikmik.com? I posted a flashable of the Gmail from aamikam's black and blue theme there.
[EVO 4G Android Development] OstrichSak:
One & the same. I'm going to try it now and see if it matches my current blue stuff.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Ok. I think it should. Let us know.
[EVO 4G Android Development] OstrichSak:
Seem to work fine. The icons and a few things are a little different but I can read the sender and subject now in my inbox which is more important. The contrast between read & unread is much easier to see at a glance too. I don't know if Chogardjr has an official version somewhere but this will work fine in the meantime. Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
No problem. I think Chogardjr said he was going to tweak his version for his next release, but I'm not sure.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
I am pretty sure he said that as well. And actually in Cho 3.12 it's tweaked a little already and looks better than it did in 3.0. At least it seems like it looks better.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Action B:
Hey guys, I love the white theme with 4.5 but I now read all the improvements made to 4.6-4.61, how much difference will I notice between these versions performance wise?

I may give up the white theme if the odexed version is a lot more awesome. Is there any plan to re-release the themes to be compatible with the odexed versions?

Any input would be appreciated.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
You mean 4.62 now? :) I'm pretty sure everyone would agree that they are faster/smoother. Also, you can have the best of both worlds. Janker5050 has a white theme for 4.62 based off of aamikam's original, located here: http://themikmik.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=582.

p.s. I do believe aamikam has plans to release his own white theme for 4.6x as well, but he hasn't yet.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Action B:
Thats freakin amazing.

Thank you and I will flash today. Making nandroid now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
You won't be disappointed. :cool:
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
What he said :D. And you're welcome.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Action B:
For some reason I can't get the confirmation code. Does it take awhile to send? I want the 4.62 you described but I'm guessing I need to be a member of that forum in order to get to it since there is only 4.61 on this thread.

I tried to have it sent twice so far usually these things are instant.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
It will get sent and no they usually aren't "instant", especially with a forum of this size. A lot of them say it could take up to 24 hours, however Mik's usually only takes about 10 minutes or so.

EDIT: BTW...You have to go through themikmik to get 4.61 as well.

Anyone else got their EVO3D on pre-order yet? ;p
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:

[EVO 4G Android Development] Action B:
Yeah I got it sorry I guess I was just getting impatient.

Will be my first odexed ROM. I am currently using Eternal Prophecy but have just came to realize that the HDMI is not functional along with some other minor bugs that I find bothersome.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Well, technically, it will be your second, because I'm pretty sure stock from sprint would be considered odex, but I could be wrong.

Well no real bugs with this one that I'm aware of.

And it's ok you are not the first, just go back a couple of pages and you will see the same thing from someone else. Enjoy.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rsol0328:
Does anyone know if HDMI out works with the Netflix app? Thanks in advance.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
I don't know much about HDMI, but I'm pretty sure that if you use Team Win's HDMI mirroring app, it mirrors exactly what is on your screen, so it should work. The app's Market link is here: http://market.android.com/details?id=com.teamwin.hdmi. There is also a donate version here: http://market.android.com/details?id=com.teamwin.hdmi.donate.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Action B:
So I have this ROM on my phone now but I was wondering if I could put a battery with percentage up top like I usually do or is that not possible with odex version? I also want color notification icons I have the files but I don't know the rules with odexed ROMs lol.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Check http://themikmik.com in the MikFroYo 4.6x themes and mods section. I know for sure there are battery threads. Not sure which notification icons you're talking about.......
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Pretty much the same rules. Are you talking about the widget.txt file?

new mikfroyo user

I've been using MikFroyo for a couple weeks now and just encountered my first serious issue. Market installed several updates today. After this, it requested me to choose a default launcher as defaults were wiped when Go Launcher updated. I checked the box and tried to select Go Launcher, but sadly the screen then accepted no input. I turned off the screen, turned it back on, unlocked, still couldn't select a launcher. So I did a reboot. It went through the process, got to the animated MikFroyo, and never made it any farther (waited about 10 minutes). I rebooted into recovery, wiped cache, wiped dalvik, fixed permissions, rebooted, and again, it gets to the animated MikFroyo but no farther.

I hate to revert to my 11-day-old nandroid backup as I've made a lot of changes since then. Any other suggestions? Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Did you by any chance remove Sense? Does the screen go off during the boot animation? It seems like since you don't have a launcher, it can't boot into the ROM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Action B:
Nevermind, this will not do! I can't have barbed wires on my phone plus upon closer inspection I much prefer the original white theme.

I will wait for aamikam's theme. Thanks though.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Hmm..Well it sounds like you lost your launcher or something. If that is the case I think your only option would be restore. Did you do the sense removal script? Did you try a battery pull while it sat there?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dave31175:
Didn't remove Sense. I did a battery pull after 10 mins of the animation so I could boot to recovery. I guess I revert 11 days :(

Thanks for the responses.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Barbed wires? Is that the wallpaper?

Try one of the many other ROM's/themes in there. The performance will outweigh your need for the white theme. ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
That would be strange that it wouldn't revert to trying to use the HTC sense then, but then again I've never used any other launcher so I am not sure.

I wonder if you could go into recovery and push it to the /system/app folder via adb.

Jade?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Action B:
No, its visible on dropdown menu above the widgets.

I'll try another theme!
[EVO 4G Android Development] dave31175:
I like to think that I'm not a total moron, but perhaps that's self-delusion as I really don't know what your suggestion means... At any rate, I've just finished restoring a backup and it's rebooting. Drum roll please..........
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Yeah man, there's a lot of stuff in there. You can even try a different ROM if you want, but I would definitely stick to something on that site rather than go back to 4.5. And believe me I loved my 4.5 setup.

Chogardjr's ROMs are real nice too.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Well, it might not have been possible but it seemed logical to me that you could have just pulled the sense launcher out of another zip and pushed it to your phone with ADB, it's kind of like terminal emulator but instead you use your phone to do that. You would have had to go into recovery and usb toggled to do it though and ran some ADB commands, however it sounds as though you don't have that setup.

I'm sure your restore will work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
So much for other suggestions.......:rolleyes:
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Kind of what I was thinking, ah well.

Would my idea have worked Jade?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
++1. There's a lot there. And Chogardjr's stuff is pretty sweet.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Possibly. I was thinking of having him just flash a rosie instead.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dave31175:
Ah, that makes sense (no pun intended...), and sounds like something I'd have been willing to try, but alas, impatience won the day. And my restore did work.

As this is my first support experience with the MikFroyo community, I have to say I'm impressed with the responsiveness and helpfulness! Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Ahh yes..That would have been good too, however he might have lost some other settings right?
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Well I guess it's good you haven't needed support, but yes the quickness and helpfulness within Mikland is second to none! :p

Impatience will win if you need your phone now. ;) At least you had a backup and it wasn't a month or so old.

Anyway happy you got it back working. And for future reference, all of the mik forums are embedded into Jadeboy's mind and soul, so he usually knows you are going to post before you even post. Kind of Matrix like. :eek:
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Can you embed discrete math too? :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Not necessarily. It's basically the same as pushing them with ADB.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Action B:
...THE BEST ROM EVER. It would be a crime for me not to donate something for a ROM this great. I put the 4.5 blue theme on it (for 4.6) and I love it. Came with that battery percentage I wanted too.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
NO!!!

There's a blue theme for 4.6 man. You just deodexed your ROM. You should flash back to base 4.62 and go to 4.62 themes/downloads and put that theme on there.

For the record you shouldn't flash anything from 4.5 onto 4.6x because you defeat the whole purpose of the odex.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dave31175:
I'm not sure if I should be terribly impressed or terribly frightened... or both!
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
+++++1. Not only does it defeat the point, but it now also takes up more memory because you have a .odex file and the classes.dex still in the .apk. Here's a link to the odexed blue theme: http://themikmik.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=247. For the future, stick to the MikFroYo 4.6x section on http://themikmik.com for all mods, themes, etc.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Sorry you are on your own there. I once knew a guy that said that stuff was cake. I think you know him too.

Ahh..Ok I thought they change like some homescreen stuff too. I think I'm going to pick a Rosie and tear it apart and see what all it does. I was talking to Tommy last night and he said that's kind of what he started with.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Me neither man. Me neither.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
I would be both. :p
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Yeah, I know him. Grrrrr :mad:.

Flashing is usually the same as pushing with ADB, just 2 different ways of getting the files to the right place.

p.s. I wonder what jklong03 would say I get for 400??? :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Say what? Is that what you just said in your other post? The 4.5 theme on 4.6 would be a bad idea.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Okey Dokey. Sounds good.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
I think he means the blue theme that was ALSO on 4.5, but he flashed the 4.6 version.

[EVO 4G Android Development] sw10475:
Finally got around to trying to reflash the HtcDialer.apk without a sig, still nothing. So I have tried signing it, swapping out files with the original using 7zip and no sig. This picture shows the box that I get when I try to flash the modded apk. I am completely lost on this one.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tommytomatoe:
Interesting. So exactly what are you trying to accomplish? Like what mods are you applying to the dialer? Let me know and maybe we can double team this for you. I'm in the process of rewriting the htc dialer right now. It's a fun little project.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Does it not check the signature at all, or it doesn't care which signature is in there? Maybe any signature is better than none? Just a thought. Not sure how that hack works.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sw10475:
There are some png's in the drawable-hdpi folder and then I want the dialer text blue and the dialer numbers blue with the white shadow behind it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tommytomatoe:
The hack turns it off, so...for example, if you have a signature, any, you can install a system/app to data/app like any old market apk, which makes it easily uninstallable. But if you push it back to system/app/ you just need to have the original meta-inf as well as the android manifest file (unless you've edited it, in that case you need the new one). Does that make sense?
[EVO 4G Android Development] tommytomatoe:
Okie dokie. Any chance you can upload what you're trying to do? I can see if i can put it together for you. Please upload non edited apk, files you you want in new apk, your edited apk, and the hex color code you are going for. Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Action B:
75% display drain?!

Loving the 4.62, however, I get an unusual high display drain when I look at my battery use. It is comprising 75% of my battery drain currently and the phone has been off the charger for 8 hours with 2 hours of the screen on.

The battery life doesn't appear to be bad but I was swapping my batteries and rebooting a lot as I was doing a lot of flashing yesterday as I got this ROM the way I wanted it. All other battery draining items are around 5% or less. Any explanation for what I'm seeing? I've used my phone in this similar manner many times and didn't have a display of 75%.

In fact, I've never seen my display above 6%. I just verified this because I often take screenshots of my battery life for reference.

How does it go from 6% to 75%?
[EVO 4G Android Development] sw10475:
If I can find everything, I will upload while here at work, otherwise I certainly can tonight. Thanks for taking a look.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
I noticed it on Chogardjr 3.0 also. It's just a percentage of 100 so it doesn't actually mean anything bad. Like you, I haven't noticed any worse battery life because of it either, so it's no big deal.
