nice- can't wait to see what JF can do with this!! i noticed there is a built in pdf reader too...

0_o
ooooo...I'm excited for this, what the outcome will be.
^-^

PDF Reader?
Interesting, there seems to be a PDF reader in there, and an FTP client. Did you install these on your phone, or were they supplied with it? It'd certainly be nice to have pdf capability in the new cupcake update for the G1...

We may get a taste of cupcake early depending on what JF does with this.

NOTE:I'm tired as crap cause I stayed up for 48 hours but I'm so happy cause of this. Excuse my errors.
I'm gonna be the risk taker here and try to apply this on a G1. I should be able to use my backup from nandroid if anything happens. So all this is the system "partion" as fastboot seems to describe it as? So basicly I have to mount system via recovery and replace it?

This was all in it.

I may get this to work by making it into an img file(nandroid backup file)...How would I do that....on Windows 7?
EDIT: IDEA! Install the latest cupcake build from andblogs.net and try installing all of this stuff manulaly

Could you just copy say, the PDFReader.apk onto your sdcard and install it from there? Or drop the apk into an update.zip?

I tried to install the PDFreader but it fails due to missing libraries. How do I load this firmware into the emulator so I can mess arround with that one instead?

Crazy idea. Take the latest JFrc33 update and overwrite any file in the update with the magic system files...should atleast boot

Lots of HTC stuff

Yeah, to be more precise it's missing all the HTC framework stuff. Doubt you would get away with just adding that stuff to your install:
Package com.htc.pdfreader requires unavailable shared library com.htc.framework; ignoring!

Somebody should change the subject to HTC Magic System Folder.
Then more people would go to the thread.

pdf reader, etc
hmm, i tried copying the frameworks into system/framework and then installing the .apk file, but that didn't seem to work. Do additional frameworks need to be registered, i wonder?

Changed to HTC Sapphire/Vodafone Magic
Cause officialy it's from the HTC not Vodafone.

Tried my update idea...boots to recovery...atleast it boots now.

HTC Framework stuff

Yup. See the bottom of /system/etc/permissions.xml
Thing is, I wouldn't be surprised if the android build this thing expects is newer than your current one, with assorted changes in the API, and if the HTC framework stuff depends on more HTC stuff lower down the stack (I notice there's a "libhtc_ril.so" for instance in /system/lib - not looked into what exactly it contains tho).
As a result it'll probably take a bit more than just dropping things into your current installation. That said, I'd love to play around a bit more if I weren't at work

Stop update your phone using these file. These file is made for Magic, not Dream. It has driver file for Magic, not Dream. Wait for JF and stop doing stupid things.

[THEME]Lockscreens for CDMA

I found out the hard way that this won't work for the CDMA hero (don't judge, I got my first Android phone last week) so I set out to port this to work on CDMA.
If you have some sort of custom these running, this may or may not break it, These are based on Modaco's 1.1
eViL Lockscreen Port:

"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Transparent Lockscreen:
Please do nandroid backup before proceeding
Attached is com.htc.resources.apk that needs to be pushed to /system/framework
One way to do it is by copying com.htc.resources.apk to a directory called lockscreen on your sdcard, and using SDK tools
Code:
adb shell
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
cp -r /sdcard/lockscreen/com.htc.resources.apk /system/framework/
reboot
Download:
eViL Port:
com.htc.resources.apk
update.zip Thanks to Thann
Transparent:
com.htc.resources.apk
update.zip
Enjoy

nice work, what exactly had to be done to convert this to cdma?

nothing too hard, just had to move 4 images from the original lockscreen into a CDMA hero com.htc.resources.apk

this isnt working for me, I get access denied if i type it like you put. I put in the command su and it let me do the first line, but then i get cp not found???

ruskiyab, if you want I can package all these files as a signed update.zip you could just run from the recovery mode. The lock looks good, and it would remove the need for command line work.

hook it up

For some reason I just can't upload to XDA today, it just keeps failing. The file is here so be sure and tell me if you have any problems.

Thats, I haven't really gotten around to reading about signing the update.zip files yet

Guinea pig approved, looks/functions great.

Did nandroid backup just to be sure, but everything works fine. Looks very good too!

I love the lockscreen. Would you mind if I include this in my Gutted Hero rom?

Ahhh you beat me to it. I was gonna do the same. I figured out how to port the themes and sign them.

Great work ruskiyab good to see other people joining in with customizing our Hero's!

Ofcourse! I stole your animations and Rosie, it's only fair
New transparent lockscreen added!

How would one edit, or create there own lockscreen?

Is the clear lockscreen the same as the one ratcom posted?
If not, can you provide a screenshot? thanks!
I'd like to know how to create my own aswell and sign the update too!

The screen shot is in the OP

ahh, thanks.
the site that is hosting the pic must be blocked at work then, because I don't see any pics in the 1st post.
I'll look tonight before trying to flash it in
EDIT: bvm, I switched to our wireless test network (glad I'm in IT) and I was able to see the pics. It looks like the same one ratcom used/posted.
Now I just need to lookup how to make my own, lol

This looks great. Thanks for sharing!

Any chance we can get an update.zip file made to revert the lock screen back to the original one? I did make a nandroid backup, but I'd rather not have to use it just for the lock screen. Thanks in advance!

Is there a way to get the 3G Icon to replace the ev?

for sprint hero?

booo. lame.

apparently its just a matter of changing a few .pngs in what we already have (no matter the build?) but im too scared to f*ck with it

ill try it lol i just need a guide or something

just replace them in the apk with the ones you want (same name), then build a install zip, sign it, and push via adb or install via RA

in alot of the roms I've used, there have been 3g variations in the files, just not in the right place or named correctly for CDMA. You can grab those if you want or create your own. Name them the same as the ones you want to replace. Open the apk with winzip or whatever app you use, find the files you want to replace, then drag the new ones into the apk.
If you get a prompt about encryption, choose other, then no encryption.
After that, build a folder structure just as if the app would be in the phone.
ex: system/framework/
- place the apk inside of the framework folder, and zip it.
- next you need to sign the zip, I'd use flipz's kitchen
- install via RA (place on sd card, reboot into recovery and install)

with your favorite graphic editor, their png files.
beyond that, you might want to make a request in the thread where you got the ROM.
what ROM and addons are you using anyway?

here's a metamoprh zip that will change to 3g icons, and nothing else.

hey man thanks!!
but, back to the long way. i found the right file, (using regaw mod, comes with the 3g icon) what do i change it to?

thank you for the zip I booted into recovery and flashed it but i still have the EV?

it's not a zip you flash. Download metamorph from the market, and install it from there.
and mountain... I just used the default 3g icons in framework-res.apk and placed them into com.htc.resources.apk with the metamorph

thankx guys I got it working

no problem

I installed MetaMorph, but at the beginning it says start basic checks to see if your phone can run, and it just hangs there and says its not responding, asks to wait or FC, please help

[Q] Need help with com.android.systemui has stopped working

Hi all,
everytime I reboot the phone I get this error message.
I think it's because I used titanium backup to delete 3 files which had to do with korean / hindu and another language file or something similar...
besides the screenshot, I have no idea how to provide logs.
Appreciate the assistance.

Attached LOGCAT

Pretty sure it's the files you deleted. Are you on stock rom? If so, just flash the system.img. If custom Rom, dirty flash it

If I'll flash system.img, then I'll lose some settings.
Is there a way to download the system apps or open the .img file?
if none of the above, can you please see if there's an error in the logcat?

Download a stock rom zip (make sure you get the deodex or odex one that matches your current set up) and open zip. Browse to /system/app/ and pick the apks you need. Move them to your internal storage and use a file explorer with root access to copy to the /system/app folder in your phone. Make sure you change the permissions and reboot. IF that is what caused it, that will get you back to normal. If it doesn't, then just dirty flash. You really won't lose that much stuff.
Also, sometimes just clearing caches and fixing permissions in recovery can help, and if it doesn't, it won't make it worse.
If you need more help, make sure you post quote or hit me up on Hangouts.

looking at the logcat I uploaded I searched for "fatal" and it found 1 fatal issue which is com.android.systemui and it appears to be something with the battery icon which I changed using GravityBox. But the change was a week ago so I don't know what was changed.
Switching back to stock battery icon and I no longer have this issue.
But it seems that I have more errors on the log file. Do you of a forum which can assist with understanding the errors I have and how to fix them?

Thank you very much for sharing

Thanks for sharing. But I can not see any system img files via 7zip without previously repaired. May I use repaired system img files?

You must be doing something wrong. I've tried WWE and Orange PL and both extract without repairing.

Thanx mate later that day ill extraxt System dump an share it with you guys.

Thanks for the DiskInternals thingy
Since i never needed to extract a System.img I never looked for a method but I will remember this. Seems fairly straightforward.
And thanks for the creds.

I will try this one.
Btw, i made a backup with twrp. Ia there any way to get the backed up system.emmc.win file extracted? Renaming it to .tar doesn't work.
What I try to achive is an extracted ROM so I can deodex the apks

add .tar to the end of each image and under Linux or cygwin use tar -xvf xxxx.tar

Hmm... Hoped there's anything for win 8.1
...setting up cygwin
Edit: @LeeDroid
Nothing happens when doing the command in the cygwin window...

Worked like a charm
I did have to edit the ConvertHima.bat and remove the line set wf=%cd%\ for it to work
but everything else was spot on .. thanks!!
Anyone need the 0PJAIMG_HIMA_UL_L50_SENSE70_ATT_NA_Gen_Unlock_1.32.617.6_R2_Radio_01.01_U11440221_59.04.50303G_2_F_release_426167_signed.zip
System.img or Dump

Worked great I think. I did get an error, and I received this error 4 times for sparse.img, 2,4,6,8. Here is the error: - "1 [main] sparse2img 7912 find_fast_cwd:". It also says "WARNING Couldn't compute FAST_CWD pointer. Please report this problem to the public mailing list [email protected]". I wrote cygwin, and got a reply from a Marco stating, "Dear Hal, Same answer as given last month to another guy". Then gave me this link https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2015-05/msg00318.html. Followed by, "Please report the solution to whom provided the ConvertHima.bat". The answer in the link basically says a utility called rsync is being used, and the person who provided it is bundling it with an old version of the cygwin kernel. I did however get a new system_hima.img, and I started ConvertHima.bat. After completion I have what appears to be a complete system image. It's 3.53Gb in size, and has the folders - app, bin customize, etc, fonts, framework, lib, lib64, lost+found, media, priv-app, tts, usr, vendor, xbin, and has the file build.prop. It appears to have all the Deodexed APK's in app and priv-app. This is from the T-Mobile RUU. I'm using Window 8.1.

I'm trying to create a system dump (1.40.708.9)but was stuck at step 2. Where can I download my ROM.zip?

That could be true. Seems like this is to extract M9's rom from an RUU and not from the phone itself.
