could somebody help me to modify htc sense? - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

hi,
could somebody help me to modify htc sense?
i want to make these changes:
1. add more than 10 places to the wether tab.
2. use video camara ang gps at the same time. i mean to make a video and driving using gps.
3. change the lockscreen clock. (RESOLVED)
4. change only the lockscreen wallpaper, without change wallpaper of menu screen. (RESOLVED)
5. add more icons to the softkey bar.
6. add more vibration to the resco keyboard pro v6.
7. add vibration to the calculator keys.
8. to make the batery show the time left, not % (it is possible with spb pocket plus, but i dont want leave htc sense).
thanks.

no one wants to help?

Your not wrong mainly cos your requests could b done with apps but secondly theme stuff comes with custom Rom
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

shopsdesire, i didnt undestand your aswer.
i only wanted to know if itis possible to modify some things of htc sense.
i was looking for the solution here but there are too much threads and posts.
i dont think i ask something impossible o too much dificult.
i tried to add vibration to the calculator keys but it didnt work.
there is no file "VbrationLevel" in the Registry. there are only "defoult" and "vibration" and put there 0, 1 or 2, 3..6 doesnt change nothing.
i also tried to increase vibration for the resco keyboard.. it is also doesnt work..
about the weather tab.. i dont think it is impossible to increase the amount of cities to add to the weather option, it has to be some file to change a value, but i cant to find it.
i see here a lot of themes to change a lockscreen but i need the one for only lockscreen and not for all htc sense theme. i wanted to change a clock on the lockscreen, and use there the wallpaper diferent of the wallpaper of the menu screen.
i bought my hd2 a secondhand and before i reset it, it has a tomtom icon in the softkey panel, so it is possible but i can fine how can i now add there icons.
spb pocket plus has the option to change a battery icon option: it shows the % of restant time or real restant time, but i cant fine any apps to have this option with sense.
i sent my question about the possibility to use video camara during driving whith tomtom, but still there is no answer. does somebody know if it is possible?
PLEASE, COULD SOMEBOBY ANSWER AT LEAST A FEW MY QUESTION?

4. change only the lockscreen wallpaper, without change wallpaper of menu screen.

Changing the "Slide" text in lock screen.

I have been searching for about 2 hours now and I can't seem to find a way to change the word "Slide" on the unlock screen. Every search i do brings me to that imitation iphone SLIDE TO UNLOCK imitatioN! I hate that!
Can anyone give me a registry hack or something to change that word?
well...maybe it's not a text, but a picture...
Yes. It is nice if we can customized to any text we want....Maybe with our name on it.
Okay, did anyone find out? I've been searching and I still cant find it. I'm pretty sure its not an image.
Pushing this thread back up. I'd love to find a way to change the text on that lock screen!
anyone manage to find the way?
Hello,
the file LS_Lockscreen_480x800 (Portrait) you have to modify. You find it under \Windows\Lockscreen.
1. Copy file to Storage Card
2. Connect HD2 via ActiveSync to your PC
3. Copy file to PC
4. Open with Notepad or text editor you prefer
5. modify following sequence
<Text ID="SlideToUnlock" Left="135" Top="620" Width="315" Height="90" FontFamily="Helvetica Neue OTS" FontSize="18" Wrap="False" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Middle" InnerTextType="Resource" Text="shellresapps.dll,18149">
<TextStage TextOffsetType="TextOffsetDropBottomRight" Color="#00000000" TextOffset="1" BlurFactor="3" Alpha="1.0"/>
<TextStage TextOffsetType="TextOffsetNone" Color="#FFFFFFFF"/>
</Text>
5a. InnerTextType="Resource" ->""
5b. Text="shellresapps.dll,18149" -> "What you want"
6. Store file
7. Copy file back to Storage Card via ActiveSync
8. Disconnect HD2 from PC
9. Copy file from Storage Card back to \Windows\Lockscreen
10. Soft reset
11. Enjoy
Note: Modification works similar for "Tap or Slide" (Text="shellresapps.dll,18150") as well
Kind Regards
Georg
Sorry, But I got lost VERY quick. Can you be a little more explicit and detailed. I got lost on finding that sequence since mines did not match yours at all.
I also cannot find "Text="shellresapps.dll,18149" -> "What you want""
@lemonspeakers
the cutout from file "LS_Lockscreen:480x800.cpr" is taken from the original
as provided with WM6.5. Values i.e. Left="135 might be different as
I´ve moved the slider to the bottom.
If you haven´t modified already the file you should find the values
InnerTextType="Resource" and Text="shellresapps.dll,18149" as well.
This you´ve to modify accordingliy.
a. InnerTextType="Resource" -> "" to enable own text ilo "Slide"
b. Text="shellresapps.dll,18149" -> i.e. "unlock"
I hope this makes it a little bit more clear
Regards
Georg
With what value's can i move the slider to the middle of the screen ?
Following section describes position of slider
<Slider ID="LockSlider" Top="16" Left="48" Width="384" Height="82" Orientation="Middle" OnPress="ShowNotifications" OnSlideLeftFinal="Unlock" OnSlideRightFinal="Unlock" >
There are few further option having influence on the slider.
i.e. <Layer ID="Slide" Width="122" Height="82" OnInitComplete="Binding:LockScreen,LS_Notifications">
<Layer ID="SlideDown">
<Image ID="SliderFocusIcon" Width="122" Height="82" Visible="True" Opacity="1.0" ScalingAlgorithm = "TriLinear" />
</Layer>
<Layer ID="SlideUp">
<Image ID="SliderIcon" Width="122" Height="82" Visible="True" Opacity="1.0" ScalingAlgorithm = "TriLinear" />
</Layer>
specifies the slider size.
I´ve to apologize, I don´t know them all yet. Maybe there is somewhere a tutorial for the lockscreen file available explaining all parameters.
Regards
Georg

Dude, why are you making this so hard? Can you speak English correctly?
If you can just explain it in terms of:
1) find the file "InnerTextType="Resource""
2) Modify it to ...
3) Find next file...
4) Modify that to....
How hard can it be? For some reason I still cannot understand you!
If someone else can decode what he is saying I'd greatly appreciate it so much.
I just want to change the word "SLIDE" on the lock screen to something else.

Maybe the explanation is complicated because the change itself is complicated, even if it is only a small thing you want to change...
Maybe if someone from Denmark can understand the explanation, the problem is not so much that 'kleiner_onkel' (bit of a clue there about his nationality...) cannot speak English correctly, but that you cannot understand English correctly...
Maybe you should show a little more gratitude to the only person who has made the effort to help you instead of criticising his English...
Maybe you'll be looking a while longer for a solution to your 'problem'...

I found the instructions pretty easy to follow - although on re-booting I get the error message "Open of EnglishUS failed!"... after that it does load Sense etc, and the text is changed as I wished. Would be nice not to have the error on booting though - any ideas what's causing this?
BTW, lemonspeakers, why are you so rude to those that spend time trying to help you. I suspect Georg's first language may not be English, but he seems to manage pretty well - most can follow his instructions. Perhaps you could converse in his mother tongue? If not, then please be more polite.
Dude!
Dude just look for the "InnerTextType="Resource"" and delete it (there are two of them so you got to delete them both), next
find the "shellresapps.dll,18149" and change it to what ever word you want (again there are two "shellresapps.dll,18149" on it so you got to change also the other one)
reboot

First of all... you shouldnt be so rude to the only person in this thread that has taken the time to tell you how to do what you want.
Secondly... if you cant understand his instructions then i suggest that you dont try it out as you will probably cause some damage by modifying the wrong entries.
With that out the way... here is a pointer in the right direction...
LS_Lockscreen_480x800 is the file you are looking for...
InnerTextType="Resource" is part of the code in that file you have to modify.
Well i say thanks to kliner_onkel
With his description and some comon sence i managed to move my slider for both unlock and missed calls etc.
And i also managed to delet the text
nice trick, i customized my slide text its cool. do anyone know how to include the long date in the lock screen so that it will show the date along with the day?

you can use s2u2 for a lockscreen.
Hey!
Thanks for the tip... I tried it out, but i don't quite like the taskbar that comes with the app.... I think I find another solution though... I'm going to try it out later on this evening.
to set different wallpaper to lock screen add this line in LS_LockScene_480x800.cpr
after tag
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Form Width="480" Height="800">
<LS_LockScene ID="Scene">
that would look like this after
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

1- yes you can.
2- if it is a jpg, convert it to a png. any graphics program can do this.
3- Wallpaper.png is the name you need to give the background pic you are going to use. Simply take the background you want, convert to .png, and rename it to "Wallpaper.png" without the quotes and place it in Windows\LockScreen folder. (Note you can always change the source of the image to somehwhere else if you want or change the name of the image...but what was posted above seems easiest.)
Cheers.

not working in hd mini..
any one have solution in this issue..
guys unless I'm having a brain fart and missing something you guys are talking about, if you change the start menu wallpaper , it will display the same wallpaper in the lockscreen, so just put your desired lockscreen wallpaper in the start menu, and you will have it on the lockscreen.
Ok, what I do with any wallpaper I want to display on my lockscreen is, drop it in my sd card, and with total commander find it and copy it to my device/my documents/my wallpapers. Then I go to start menu/settings/home/ and in appearance, at the bottom I check "Use this picture as the background" and press browse right next to it, that will open a list of all papers on the device, find the one you want and click it, then it will go back to the appearance page and it will show the name of the paper you selected on the bottom, press ok, and that's it you'll see your paper now on the start menu background and on the lockscreen.
so how do you change the start menu background?

[Q] Help remove the lockscreen clock background and slider text

Hi to all!
I am looking for a way to remove the semi transparent background behind the clock (spray painted in red and with a red arrow) without removing the clock and also the text that says "slide" on top of the unlock slider (See red arrow). Any help will be very much appreciated.
I have CHT 2 installed on HTC HD2. Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi AlexGT1,
One question my friend, is that the CHT2's lockscreen or the windows one?
If it's the windows lockscreen you could remove the semi transparent clock background installing the cab. attached but I really don't know if it will works on the CHT2's lockscreen so use it on your own risk, OK.
I recommend you to do a back up first, please with File Explorer go to /Windos directory and find a png. file named htc_LS_TimeBG.png and copy/paste it in your SD card as your back up, OK.
About to remove the word "slide" is posible to do it but is something more complicate because you have to edit the files LS_LockScene_480x800 and LS_LockScene_800x480 which are a little delicate.
Anyway, I'm posting your pic so maybe another fella could help you with
Good look.
Thank you for your reply, I think my lock screen is the windows one (How can you tell?) I will try out the cab after a complete backup using SK Tools.
Thanks again for your help!
AlexGT
I tried it and it didn't work, I made backup, installed, reset phone and the background is still there. restarted sense, and it is still there, so I uninstalled it, no harm done. I appreciate your help though.
Anyone have another idea I could try?
Thanks!

The file "LS_LockScene_480x800.cpr" you have to modify. You find it under \Windows\Lockscreen.
1. Open with Notepad or text editor you prefer
2. modify following sequence
<Text ID="SlideToUnlock" Left="135" Top="620" Width="315" Height="90" FontFamily="Helvetica Neue OTS" FontSize="18" Wrap="False" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Middle" InnerTextType="Resource" Text="shellresapps.dll,18149">
<TextStage TextOffsetType="TextOffsetDropBottomRight" Color="#00000000" TextOffset="1" BlurFactor="3" Alpha="1.0"/>
<TextStage TextOffsetType="TextOffsetNone" Color="#FFFFFFFF"/>
</Text>
2a. InnerTextType="Resource" ->""
2b. Text="shellresapps.dll,18149" -> "What you want"
Note: Modification works similar for "Tap or Slide" (Text="shellresapps.dll,18150") as well

[How-To] Edit Contacts.apk/Phone.apk for dialer pad ?

hi everybody, I need some help with dialer pad.
As you can see at the pic, there is much space at the right. The lowermost buttons are not in proper line. How i can resize them to put them in a proper line? Do I need to edit smali codes / values codes? Thanks in advance
The images don't need to be resized.
However you'll have to modify the layout. But this will be a task.
First you'll have to find out which layout it is that contains those three buttons.
The way I narrow my search down is, I go into red/drawable-hdpi/xhdpi/xxhdpi or whatever the resolution is. And look for those icons. Once you find the dialer, phone and contact add icon. Copy the names of these .png's to something then using one of the .png's copy the name and in the layouts folder. Search the images name. This will narrow down the layout.xml's and then from there you can find it. Once you find the layout.
There will be three lines that determine the images, you can fix the layouts by using the following code.
android:layout_gravity="center|center"
android:gravity="center"
Change the first one to where you want to button to be displayed so if its on the right side make it "right|center" or "center|right"
Hopefully I helped.

thanks for your answer
I tried but doesn't fix it. I found what image it shows at dialer pad. it's '' ic_add_contact_holo_dark '' ( how i found it is? I have change the image with another bigger resolution one. Dialer pad shows it bigger but didnt cover more place ( i have thought that if change the icon wiht bigger one maybe it could cover all transparent space. but it didnt ) so with that way i found which image is that! Then,
I followed ur tellings. '' ic_add_contact_holo_dark '' is in Contacts.apk and the layout xml is '' speed_dial_input_dialog.xml '' . Here is the xml codes :
HTML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout android:orientation="horizontal" android:paddingLeft="15.0dip" android:paddingRight="15.0dip" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<EditText android:id="@id/number" android:layout_width="0.0dip" android:layout_height="48.0dip" android:layout_marginTop="16.0dip" android:layout_weight="0.8" android:inputType="phone" />
<ImageView android:layout_gravity="center_vertical" android:id="@id/contacts" android:layout_width="0.0dip" android:layout_height="48.0dip" android:src="@drawable/ic_add_contact_holo_dark" android:layout_weight="0.2" style="?android:attr/buttonBarButtonStyle" />
</LinearLayout>
I have changed '' android:layout_gravity="center_vertical" '' to android:layout_gravity="center|right"
but doesnt fix it, u have any idea ? really thanks for your help
Mind pulling the .apk from your device and uploading it? Perhaps I can fix it for you.

System UI mod for Official Lollipop

I have managed to mod the SystemUI of my note 3 to my liking but one thing is not possible for me to do.
I have hidden the sfinder menu. Increased transparency of recent apps background.
And changed status bar icons to stock lollipop.
But i have just noticed that the clear button in notification panel takes so much space.
Is there a way to hide it? Or make it as an overlay instead of wasting space.
Plssssssss tell me if anyone knows a way.
See the screenshot for explanation
I'm not on LP, so just guessing, because I can't try it.
TWRP or ADB is recommended to fix the SystemUI if it crashes after that, or make an zip with the original SystemUI.
SystemUI.apk\res\layout\clear_all.xml
hide possibility:
change this:
android:textSize="@dimen/status_bar_expanded_notification_clear_button_text_size"
to
android:textSize="0.0dip"
change this:
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
to
android:layout_width="0.0dip"
change this
android:layout_height="@dimen/carrier_label_height"
to
android:layout_height="0.0dip"
If the "Clear" text is gone after that, than it's the right xml.
or just test it first make the "Clear" text black: android:textColor="@drawable/clear_all_button_state" change to android:textColor="#FF000000"
If there is no change try to make changes here: SystemUI.apk\res\layout\status_bar_notification_dismiss_all.xml
android:layout_width & height to 0.0dip
If one of them is working, than add your modified xml to layout-land folder, so the Clear button should be gone only in landscape mode.
(let the original xml in the layout folder)

I already tried that. The file is right and the clear button goes away. But still the notification panel does not take all the available space. It still stays the same way with the clear button gone.

SystemUI.apk\res\values\dimens.xml
Try to set this two to 0.0dip
<dimen name="close_handle_height">34.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="close_handle_underlap">34.0dip</dimen>
You have now about 60.0dip empty space at the bottom, so 2x34 maybe...
if no change, than find each line which one contents clear in it:
for example:
<dimen name="clear_all_padding_top">12.0dip</dimen>
Thanks Thanks Thanks
Thanks Sooooooooooooo Much
The closing handle was occupying that space
Now it is perfect.
Thanks sooo much.
I might be asking for more help in future.
I hope U dont mind.
Thanks again.
Sooo happy to get my first fix from xda.

Could you please mod my SystemUI apk to not show S-Finder/Quick Connect? :fingers-crossed:
I have the recent apps screen background set to transparent.. I don't mind the Clear button too..
I have created a new thread consisting of all the mods I am using.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/themes-apps/mods-collection-note-3-lollipop-t3148518
It also has how to hide the buttons in recents apps as well
