how to brute force hack the text color of dropdown quickpanels

how to brute force hack the text color of dropdown quickpanels

Ok, I didn't spend a lot of time figuring out all the particular edits direct meaning yet but here is what I did to change the text to black from white.

See this post to get started in disassembling services.jar:

com\android\server\status\StatusBarService.smali:

This line I believe controls the text color when the toggle is off

How to mod MediaProvider.apk AKA Media Scanner:

Text color:

You need to hexedit to do this properly, I don't know why but if you apkmanager it, recompiling screws up the progressbar animation.

Free Hex Editor - HxD

http://mh-nexus.de/en/hxd/

The file you want to edit is this one:

MediaProvider.apk\res\layout\status_bar_ongoing_event_progress_bar.xml

Search for Hex Value 08 00 00 1C, this means setTextColor. Directly after this is the color value, it reads FF FF FF FF, which is white.

The important thing to note here is that in hex it is ARGB BACKWARDS so you have to enter your change BGRA.

For instance to change from white #ffffffff to black #ff000000 you will change the hex value from FF FF FF FF to 00 00 00 FF

You will have to do this particular change for all instances of FF FF FF FF following 08 00 00 1C, there should be 3

Simple just drop in your replacement MediaProvider.apk\res\drawable-hdpi\stat_notify_sdcard_prepare.png

nitsu i am stuck at the editing (or copying) services.jar. i have a zip i would like you to look at so i can finalize it i was up all night on it pm me i can email it to you

or any other themers
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] nitsuj17:
what are you trying to edit in the service.jar specifically?
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] SHANENATAS:
Guide is awesome

But. . . before I get into all this. Is it going to be hard to download the themes I like and take the parts I like out of them to build my own (frankintheme). Little things like the GPS icon from one theme, the dialer from another, and I want up and down scrolling back. After I just updated to EB01 it was scrolling up and down. I themed out and now it is sideways again. Did my girlfriends fascinate and hers is up and down and she has same teme, although she has a few different icons where here phone, app drawer, browser are. Mine I can edit, hers you cannot. Any insight you may have would be great. Or I will just like what I have, Thnx

[Fascinate Themes and Apps] nitsuj17:
its not really that hard to pull apart a few themes and mash them together...where you have to be careful is apps from different phones....sometimes the .9s have similar names but will not work when renamed and copied into your apk/app on your phone...that can cause issues...but generally stuff in the frameworks is fine
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] akaine2001:
I want to use color changer but its not working. Hold on I'm outside I'm going back in theming room irc
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] nitsuj17:
is colorchanger not working for you? or are the finished service.jars just not booting

Is it possible to theme Phone.apk? Every time I try, it FCes.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] nitsuj17:
yeah i have issues with phone.apk....i seem to do everything right but i get problems, so i abandoned that in tw long ago...i may revisit it...or just do it for aosp themes
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] nitsuj17:
one of the op's updated for .9 editing
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] rigglemania:
Question - I've heard it said (by you and others) that already-modified frameworks won't work when recompiled. Does this mean that not even the "stock deodexed" framework can be recompiled? Because I've never had any success booting it even if I recompile it with zero changes. If this is indeed the case, then how is one supposed to get anything that requires compiling to work? In the past I had just plucked the files I changed out of the build folder and that seemed to work, but I HAD thought there must be a more elegant way... not so? Or am I just missing something?
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] nitsuj17:
when we say "edited" frameworks, we are refering to ones that have had images change/modified or generally xml color files edited....stock deodexed or the just the ones that sbrissen has modified for power control options/acc battery should and do decompile and recompile fine

if you are using apkmanager though, you are going to want to replace the apktool.jar in the "other" folder with 1.3.1 as the version 1.3.2 one that comes with it has many issues.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] rigglemania:
They do decompile and recompile fine, but the resulting apk won't actually work, at least in the case of framework-res. This is indeed using the 1.3.1 apktool.jar which you advised me of before.

It's not a big deal I guess since the other method I mentioned works, it just irks me as a coder :p
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] nitsuj17:
Yeah I don't know what else to qdvise you to do at this point. :( works for most of us
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Bigloof:
Might be a dumb question but are you signing the apk?
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] nitsuj17:
thats true of apps and stuff...but theres no need to sign framework.apks

Question - Ive seen some themes (SuperDark for example) that have a custom waiting animated gif (i.e. spinning wheel in center of screen vs the standard spinning starburst)

Where is this located, and how easily ported to a different theme is it? I could swear I saw it somewhere on the file system, but now I cant find it again.

Thanks.

theres no need to delete the previous ones, just copy the new ones in over them...it ll help you see if your missing any as well
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] cpark_12:

[Fascinate Themes and Apps] nitsuj17:
use 7zip to open the the theme...extract the drawable-hdpi or hdp-4 folder from framoewkr res.apk...copy the images in to the theme...then replace the the modded folder in the theme update.zip

Need some help... Newly rooted and loving it! I flashed my first theme yesterday (NitroDark Eclipse v3.0) and it went well. Worked great. I wanted to try other ones, just to check them out and the only other one that would work was NitroComb. Nothing else. I must of tried about 6 other themes. When installing it would stop and say ...

" Amend Scripting (Update Script) is no longer supported. Amend scripting was deprecated by Google in ANdroid 1.5. Please Switch to Edify Scripting to create working update zip packages. Installation aborted"

Any ideas?? Thanks.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] nitsuj17:
you are using cwr 3.0...which switches to edify scripts from amend

most of us didnt switch to edify as it was quickly proven to not work entirely right, and when adrynalyne quickly abandoned it for roms, that was it.

i guess the nitro theme maker decided to keep using them...most of us use voodoo (red) recovery to flash everything.

personally i only use 3.0 to backup/restore as its nandroids include the kernel

Hey, guys! Quick question: I updated to the DK28 stock ROM. I've noticed that the vibration when the phone rings is pretty weak. Is there any way to increase the vibration of the phone when it rings? Thanks!
[Epic 4G General] gtuansdiamm:
Setting>sound>vibration intensity
[Epic 4G General] DangerZone1223:
That's the problem. The only option I get is for haptic feedback vibration intensity. The ringer vibration correlates directly with that.

The intensity has really dropped off with Froyo. I remember it being MUCH stronger. It's strongest is now like 75% of what it was on Eclair.
[Epic 4G General] Poryhack:
I noticed a huge dropoff in my vibration strength a while back as well, but not from froyo. I'm not certain this was the cause but I first noticed it after overclocking my phone. It wasn't the first time I overclocked but it was right after setting up a new OC kernel. Don't remember what kernel however, it was probably back in October/November...

Haven't seen any fix for it yet.
[Epic 4G General] DangerZone1223:
Well, it's good to see I'm not the only one having this problem. I'll be pleasantly surprised if Samsung fixes this in the official update. Thanks for letting me know.
[Epic 4G General] Poryhack:
I wouldn't get my hopes up. Samsung seems to have enough problems with basic functionality let alone people who are messing around with things they "shouldn't".

So rumor on the Grapevine has it Cricket is trying to force us into purchasing they're lovely low-end androids by cutting off our data. I have a Fascinate fully flashed to cricket and had to lie to get it set up as a zio to work. Now, as of this morning, the data has ceased working and after searching I've found info from a few sources who work at cricket that have confirmed cricket has been running tests on which phones are actually cricket androids.

It used to be that you had to unlock in order to root etc.

But now with one click root applications like SuperOneClick etc, is there any reason to unlock the bootloader? Is it required for any custom ROM procedures?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efrant:
Not really (although it does make things easier to flash - using fastboot is very convenient.)

But then again, is there any reason to not unlock it? It has been shown numerous times that HTC will honor the warranty despite an unlocked bootloader, while it has never been shown that HTC has refused warranty service because of an unlocked bootloader.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paul22000:
Ah, so the only thing unlocking does is provide access to using "fastboot"?

I know; I warranty swapped mine that was bootloader unlocked :) I'm just asking for general information.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efrant:
Yes, unlocking your bootloader = the ability to flash images to your Nexus One using fastboot. That's it.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brettbellaire:
What if I am not planning on using a new rom? I want to stay on stock, but say, just want to overclock. I don't want to lose any data.

I think you can just root then via SuperOneClick.

I have another question about unlocked bootloader. How can I tell if my bootloader its unlocked? I know usually I have to flash slp to unlock it or set S-off and if I'm not sure it should still be locked, but when I flashed modaco rom it said something about unlocking bootloader. I didn't want to but couldn't abort! So when I boot into bootloader it doesn't say unlocked but any way to tell beside that?

You'd see a padlock icon at the bottom of the 'X' screen as you boot up if you are unlocked.
