Decepticon Boot - Hero CDMA Themes and Apps

Saw this works for us as well as long as on Froyo or Darchdroid. I thought was pretty sweet.

then it wont work out the box, you'll have to change it.

What would we have to do to make this work on Fresh 2.3.3? I've never messed with bootscreens like this so I have no idea. This is possibly one of the coolest boots I've seen though.

I'm curious about this also.

I would love to have this for Fresh or RegawMOD

I think boot.img's are diffrent for sense and non-sense roms. just a guess. cause i see when people make them for sense they say they don't work on vanilla roms or visa versa. so i think you'd have to make a whole new one.

I am new to all of this, so I just read and research until I find stuff that works. I also have to be very careful not to brick my phone.

Thank you for this! It is better than the merging nexus one logo IMO. A little big on the hero, but who cares. If only it had some sound

correct, i ripped apart fresh2.3.3 and he has a boot1.gif in the /system/media/bootanimation folder
on darch and froyo they have a bootanimation.zip in the /system/media folder. my guess is to take all the images in the bootanimation.zip in the part0 and possibly part1 folder stitch them together in photoshop(you can resize here too) make an animated gif, open in gimp and deoptimize then resave as animated gif. name boot1.gif and push to the /system/media/bootanimation folder.

i just adb pushed this to /system/media on zen exp and it works and it's bad ass

I can confirm this works on nfinitefx45 Rom...

I can also confirm this method as working by doing the same using Fresh 2.3.3 (a sense UI based rom also). Happy booting decepticons!

I tried pushing this after I installed the CS6 test 4 with no luck. I still get the custom boot that was originally on it and DD2.7. After I push it, it shows that it was successful and give the size of the file transferred, but when I reboot I get the same one.

i pushed a custom gif using the images in this boot and it was either blank or it was small and different pixels like it was a bad res any ideas how to get it to work im using fresh 2.3.3

awesome guys glad you found an easier fix. for the froyo user i pushed it just fine i'm on cm6 test 4. pm me if you need help.

I'll try to retry it here in a few hours when I get off work. If I am still unsuccessful, I'll send you a PM. It's good to find another Kansan on here.

I figured out my problem, since I had just redone my Hero with the new CS ROM, I forgot to turn on USB debugging. Retried the steps and was successful.

Nice glad you got it going.

[SPL] ENG-SPL for the CDMA Hero

Hey guys, thought i'd like to distribute something Toastcfh and i have had for quite some time. its an Eng Spl.
now you may be asking what that is. its pretty much the most awesome dev tool ever! it enables s-off in the bootloader so you can use fastboot and other crazy stuff. so it kinda makes dev'ing easier if trying to resolve a bootloop or kernel panic. I'll give a better explanation when i get back home tonight. so without further ado, here you all go
DOWNLOAD!!!
md5sum: a77a2dee8e903e8f1a18b28b5c5e0b40
All credit goes to Maejrep and Toastcfh for getting this for us
Flash this like you would a radio or a rom.
I dont know what else to say, but LOL
Is this along the same lines as what Regaw is working on?

Humm im on 8242010 nightly, after flashing this sprintVVM fcs. Interesting. Perhaps an APK signing issue? I'll grab a logcat then resign the apk and see what happends.
No idea why, but I rm'ed the apk from /system/app, and killed all traces of it in /cache, and /data/data. Then copied the apk manually using root explorer, set permissions and rebooted and now all is well. Probably just a fluke!

Lol I asked what it is , I read your explanation and still confused
Sent from my CDMA Hero using XDA App
LMAO.
Darch can confuse people quickly.
Usually I flash whatever Darch posts but this... This scares me =P It's not like a rom or root or even a CDMA Radio where if I screw up I can RUU back to stock... Or can I -_^
Anyways, I'll probably flash this tomorrow This doesn't effect Recovery or anything else correct? I am a mobile warrior so I do my nands and flashing without a PC =)
What does this enable me to do with my phone? Like can I make a flashable zip without the signing? Or does this make it easier to customize stuff?
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
This allows you to flash an ***.img file to a specific partition on your phone without making a zip. You can also make a HERCIMG.zip (a zip with multiple images in it ie, system.img, data.img, boot.img, recovery.img) and flash that straight from hboot.
Again, if you don't know what you are doing you could SERIOUSLY f*** up your phone. This gives you all the power you need to flash the wrong thing and ruin your phone. But it is VERY useful if you know what you are doing.

[MOD] Disable menu unlock for lockscreen.

This is a mod for the lockscreen so that the capacitive menu button is disabled for unlocking. This has been tested on Vanilla Lockscreens, but should work the same on HTC Lockscreens. This also has been tested on 3.29* based sense roms, unsure if it will work with other bases. If you have other fixes (i.e. reboot button change) you will overwrite that. Please post if you need me to upload a fixed version of that. Thanks goto ViRuS for the idea, and brut.all/jesus freke for apktool.
Instructions:
Download flashable zip.
NANDROID NANDROID NANDROID? did i miss something?
Reboot into recovery.
Flash zip and reboot.
That was easy wasn't it?
No more accidental unlockings!
Cookers/Developers: If this does not work for your rom, PM me and i can make individual flashable updates.
Rom users: reply to the thread with the base rom that it does not work on. I can find the base myself and make a list of updates.
Edit: It will take awhile to reboot, because i added a cache and dalvik-cache wipe to the update script.
Added mediafire mirror.
Links:
Rapidshare
Mediafire
Just flashed on Fresh 3.3.0.1 and it took a while for the phone to reboot but it's working great. Thanks!
Sir, you are a gentleman and a scholar. This is very, very appreciated.
Would you be willing or be able to get to the bottom of the graphical glitches with the Vanilla lockscreen? I know it's plaguing more than one person, myself included.

Locate the 2.1 fix, and I'll see what i can do.
Here is the page that talks about the fix and has the files, and this is the file itself.
Thank you in advance.
Just found a bug (and a pretty major one). It worked perfectly fine disabling the menu button unlock; however, it also FC'ed the HTC dialer, vanilla clock, and HTC gallery every time I tried to open them. Nandroid was my friend today. Not sure if this will happen with anyone else.

Fresh 3.3.0.1
Everything was working fine until I flashed this zip. Maybe I'm just the only one with a stubborn Evo. lol
i have been looking for this for the past few days. a couple of questions before i flash. does it work on stock rooted deodexed with a removed HtcLockScreen.apk? also what .apk have you edited, i have mods made to my framework-res.apk, wondering if they will be touched. Thanks!
EDIT: After flashing on Rooted Doedexed stock rom, it foze on the 4G boot screen. i did a battery pull and tried again... IT WORKS! THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!
so, i'm new to android. does anyone mind giving me step-by-step instructions on how to do this to my fascinate? thanks.
I'm experiencing graphical glitches too on Fresh 3.3.0.1, unless the colors are supposed to be different.

You won't be able to use this hack on the fascinate, you'd have to have one specifically made for your phone i think.

You are correct from what i have seen, also, there is an easier way to do this, also i didn't think the Menu button even did that, sure hasn't anytime i have tried it, or maybe it's because i'm using sense.
I tried to flash this and did not work for me im rooted on evo with no custom rom I just don't like the slider oh and i used unrevoked if that means anything. Im new to this also any suggestions or did I just miss something?
ATM I have two choices: Vanilla Lockscreen with this fix or Reboot Menu. Can you implement your fix with this reboot menu?

I decompiled and compared these two services.jars and could not find common differences to combine and recompile the fixes myself. I don't think you want to give up your secrets and I am not a programmer. Unless you have tips so I can accomplish this myself.

[Q] Awesome evo theme confirmed on one incredible rom, boot loops on uncommon sense

I saw this today while browsing through the forums and wow do I want this! I installed it and it booted up, and started to run. It looked so amazing! But out of nowhere it went into an endless boot loop. So sad! I'm running uncommon sense V1.1. Any ideas? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Works on Lou's R-EVO-lution (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=799679) rom as well. I used the R-EVO-lution rom and mounted the theme, and it ran fine and is actually quite beautiful, but it ends up messing up the internal mounting, which is a bummer.
I don't think it's possible to load the way it is. A dev would have to port it (I'm guessing) or you'd have to switch roms.
Crap. Thank you for the insight. If there's any dev that would want to try to port this to uncommon, that would be sweet...

This is an EVO Theme for EVO Rom's that is why you are having an issue. The framework-res, com.htc.resources, rosie, vending apk's are different than on the DINC. You would have to have someone port it over to the DINC to get it to work correctly.
***Edit*** So apprently the only DINC ROM that it will work on is FrankenRom http://adrynalyne.us/
It works on hey its lou new rom as well

I am trying to port this right now and will let you know if I succeed. I have a little tool that does it for you but I have never used it so we will see what happens. I am porting to SkyRaider 3 for now and if it works I can port it to any dodexed rom.

What little tool?
There is a tool on AndroidForums made by a guy called Androizd that ports and converts everything over. He is a really good DEV but had some problems with some people in the ERIS sectino so he no longer post on XDA, If you want to try and port themes I know it worked really well on my old ERIS.
Actually I got it here at XDA. I know what tool your talking about with the Eris, I used to own one.
What tool are you referring to? Do you have a link?
I will see if I can find the original thread so I can give the original creator credit. If not I will post it here for download.

So I used it and it works well. Only issue is...if the ROM does not use the .9.png files and the Theme does then you are out of luck. In this intance the Ucommon ROM does not use .9.png files and this theme does so the theme will not work with Uncommon ROM. SkyRaider does not use .9.png files either.

Its easy but time consuming to convert them to .9 style just Google it. If you have Android SDK installed and Eclipse you can do it.

[MOD] No Banding - Dithered Holo Background - CWM

I have to sell my computer because I'm moving. I won't be able to make these for a while. They're very easy to do on your own though.
First, download this image and don't change its name.
This has probably been described a thousand times here, but I'm posting instructions for newcomers.
Steps:
1 - Extract ROM of your choice
2 - Navigate to /system/framework
3 - Using 7zip, open (don't extract) framework-res.apk
4 - Navigate to /res/drawable-nodpi/
5 - Drag background_holo_dark.png into the folder. It will replace the original
6 - Close 7zip window
7 - Using 7zip, open (don't extract) the original ROM download .zip
8 - Navigate to /system/framework
9 - Drag the edited framework-res.apk into that folder. It will replace the original
10 - Flash ROM
Using these instructions, you can take any .zip package made for Clockworkmod if you want to flash it after you install the ROM. Just delete folders except for meta-inf and drag a folder with the following directory structure into the .zip package: system/framework/framework-res.apk
That's it.
FLASH IN CLOCKWORKMOD -- ALWAYS BACK UP FIRST!!!!!!!!​
Credit to endursa for making the dithered background image
I took endursa's image and put it into a flashable zip for Clockworkmod. It worked fine on my device. YMMV
No more gross banding on the uninstall screen and wherever that background exists in the UI.
I know there was already a zip for this mod by KamikaZeeFu, but it didn't work on my stock (rooted, unlocked) AT&T One X because KamikaZeeFu built it for VillainTheme, so it didn't flash.
UPDATE: I'll add links for other ROMs, because if you flash one of these on a custom ROM it will likely screw things up.
This overwrites anything you have might have modified in framework-res.apk
For STOCK 1.82: http://www.mediafire.com/?k06sfrmg6fl498j
For STOCK 1.85: http://www.mediafire.com/?kwy2lk791ybeysn

I CLAIM NO RESPONSIBILITY TO ANYTHING THAT GOES WRONG WITH YOUR DEVICE. FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK!

No problem.
And I totally agree. First of all, this should have been the image used in the stock build. Second, everyone who makes a custom ROM should consider including this image. Third, this image is used so often on the phone that it almost ruined the expericne for me before I found the original thread with that image in it. It's really easy to put this into any ROM, but if anyone is scared to mess with it, or just doesn't feel like it, let me know and I'll make more. I'll continue to make them until ROM cooks and developers start putting it in their ROMs.
Otherwise, there are tutorials for making/modifying your own flashable zips, but I can post a short tutorial later for any new people here. My daughter is using my computer to watch a movie right now.
I just finished a semester of learning C++. I'm going to try to learn Java over the summer to get a head start before next semester. Maybe I'll finally be able to contribute more in the near future. I've been saying that for almost two years... but I'm working on it.

is it as simple as dragging and dropping the .PNG into systemui.apk? or do you have to decomplile and all that fancy stuff? Reason I ask is Cleanrom2.1 is release and has new changes so cant use the old one no more.

...into a flashable zip. I think you might run into problems doing it with a file explorer while the OS is running.
Or just put it in the ROM before you flash. That's what you're asking, right?

Thanks for this fix!
After further use this mod seems to break CleanROM 2.1 reboot menu. Not sure about anything else.
I also am not sure if it has anything to do with CleanRom being deodexed.

[Q] Stock rooted ROM

I wanted to ask how I could go about taking a rom.zip (pulled from an RUU) and turn it into a stock rooted rom. The phone flashing would be rooted, of course
And if possible, for that process, is it generic? As in, would it work for any phone/stock rom? Or only shift?

Well it would be stock Shift so unless modded it would only work for the Shift. Not sure what you're trying to do.

Well what I mean is if I took an equivalent rom.zip from the RUU for another device, then I want to be able to follow generally the same process to make it a stock rom that won't compromise root

Good luck with that, it seems like you are doing way too much work for what you are trying to achieve (which I am still a little confused on). Essentially you are trying to port a "stock" ROM from another device, and then rooting it... why go thru all the trouble? That sounds like a headache for no reason. What is the device you are taking the RUU from? Why not just port a rooted stock ROM? Like RemICS for example is basically the stock ROM for the SGS3.

Wait what...noooo thats not what I mean lol
What I'm asking is that lets say I have stock rom.zip for some device, how do I make a rooted version of that rom.zip (no porting, no other mods)
All I want to do is basically be able to reset everything to stock using that rom.zip, but without losing root on the device I'm flashing to
So like this:
Device N's rom.zip > rooted rom.zip for device N > flash rooted rom.zip to device N

You want to pull the stock Rom out of an RUU, and use it sort of as a wipe Rom? Does that about sound right ?

If all you wanna do is what I did with the latest ota. Download the RUU.exe and open it to its first screen but don't go forward. Then open a the start menu and go to run. Once at the run box type %temp% and hit enter, then find the location of ROM.zip and move it out to the Desktop and close the RUU.exe. now inside the ROM.zip are a few images the RUU uses to flash, so now your gonna wanna take the boot.img and system.img and place them in dsixda kitchens original update folder, then open the dsixda kitchen in cmd and setup a working folder from a ROM and choose the boot.img and system.img. once that's done use the options to add root and busyboox, maybe data/app if you want and that's your rooted stock ota zip :beer:

Too good
I knew I had to use dsixda's kitchen because I saw someone mention that in a post but they didn't specify...
But awesome, thanks strapped

Not a problem, anything else I'm floating around somewhere most of the time and get email notifications.

Hey guys, I just asked a question to the EVO folks the I remembered this thread is where I got the idea. What I've done is what Strapped said and took the ROM from the ruu for the EVO and ran it through dsixda's kitchen. It's been running great on my EVO 4g but this morning I had some time and thought I would do some themeing and found there is no systemUI.apk? I even went back to the kitchen and rechecked what I had done earlier but there just isn't one that I can find. Has anyone heard of this before? I would think that with that missing it shouldn't be working at all right?
That doesn't sound right . Are you sure your seeing all the files? I had this happen once, I did not have my settings correct on the Laptop.

Yea I'm sure. Could it be hidden somehow? Maybe in some odd folder... No one at the EVO is taking me seriously assuming I'm asking a noon like question. :-/
Edit: just for fun, I flashed a modded systemUI last night for this and its in there but nothing has changed. It's the weirdest thing I've come across Android wise.
EDIT2: is it possible the file got mixed in with something else when I deodexed it?
Edit3: I just went through the process again (I'm off work until tomorrow) and there is still no systemUI.apk? What settings on the laptop were you refering to? I can see that file in other ROMs. This is just odd...
Edit4: Ive been looking into this further and I am finding the icons from the systemUI mixed in both the system/framework/framework-res.apk and system/framework/com.htc.rescources.apk so I'm guessing somehow I mixed things together...
That is some creepy stuff
As in how it somehow got chucked in a blender with the framework files

I can't figure it out. I'd upload it for folks to look at but its for the EVO 4g and no one there is interested.

Glad you got it sorted. Had way to much on the plate today. Sorry I couldn't get back to you. Had a messed up day.

Yes it is. Quite a few Newbs . Hopefully some will step up and start doing for the community. As happened in the Shift community .

It's understandable, anymore it is a relatively cheap device to obtain for a starter into Android. I just wish people would read and search before posting... that should be a rule. And this guy (me) should be getting an OG soon.

Nice . Glad to hear that. As for the reading thing. It is oh so true . But unfortunately most do it later, than sooner.
