I designed and made this battery icon for x10. It can tell you your battery status as accurate as 1% but it needs some brain work. You've to calculate the percentage by yourself. It's a bit complicated but might save your money for paying brain training on a DSi =)
Wish you like.
ATTENTION: Other people might not understand your phone battery status. This may cause a delayed battery charging =)

2.Copy framework-res.apk to to your X10's /sdcard
3.Connect your X10 to a PC, make sure USB debugging is enabled. Run "cmd"
4.Locate your adb.exe.
-adb shell
-su (make sure you give super user permissions (su) on your x10 side)
-mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock2 /system
-dd if=/sdcard/framework-res.apk of=/system/framework/framework-res.apk
5.Your phone will restart and that's it.

possible to get this in black or transparent status bar? looks way better then those circle battery ones!!

can you give me a link or a sample picture of the black or transparent status bar? thanks.

Oh god, this one is sooooo sexxy
I think I'll apply this on my phone immediately
Very nice job
BTW, how much time did you need to figure this out? just curious

I can finished it may be in 2-3 minutes =)

Nice Battery Icons
Just a little bug on status background
check second screenshot
Before apply this mod everything was OK, but after apply this mod even if I reinstall original framework this bluetooh call icon persist on background

Hi Alejandrissimo:
May I confirm your firmare version number? It looks like you've applied this to a .504 firmware. This file is only for .24 firmware.

Hi, I must say that i really appreciate your work, but I'm in the same case as Alejandrissimo. Too bad for me I know, didn't check my version before.
Could you tell us how to revert to normal ? I tried to upload the original framework-res with the same procedure but i didn't work..
Many thanks

Did you use adobe illustrator to design this mod?
And if it's so, did you start creating a 38x38 pixel document or larger and then resized?

It happened before because I definitely noticed this problem with different firmware version in this forum. Can you try the mod for .504 version?
EDIT:
Yes, I found it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10295998&postcount=154
Can you try the Reboot mod for .504?

This work is done by using adobe photoshop CS4. Yes you're right it's 38*38 pixel. I got the battery frame from the original stock icon and then calculated the squares needed inside frame on pixels. Therefore no resize involved.

I will have a look. I can make a .504 framework-res.apk but as I don't have that firmware installed, dare you try? =)
Here's one with dark status bar. I've modified other icons to fit the dark bar as well. It's for the .504 version but I've no chance to test it. If you want just try it.
-backup your original framework-res.apk
-install xrecovery
-do the modification
If failed, you can restore your original one using xrecovery.

edit: works great, no reboot needed - thank you
Download link is ok all works fine for me, have the launcher back working correctly.
you can extract Launcher.apk from the Dude's or JF's build.
all you need to to is actually:
adb remount
adb shell rm /system/app/HTCLauncher.apk
adb push Launcher.apk /system/app
the os will find the new launcher aotumatically, so there's no need to install it.

Doing this broke my clock widget...
I managed to get mine working (as my post shows) by using ADB via;
Putting Launcher.apk onto the root of the SD card (drag and drop)
adb devices
adb remount
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
cd /sdcard
install Launcher.apk /system/app/Launcher.apk
reboot
so basically instead of downloading terminal emulator i just quickly did it through ADB and Boom!! it works!

Its what I do
Noticed an interesting (and very welcomed) side effect to fixing this issue today...
In order to fix the tab orientation issue, i used the only other Launcher.apk file i had at the time, which happened to be from the Aero15 Theme designed for TheDudes cupcake build. Turns out, not only do i now have the slick Aero styled Launcher, but it gave me 5 desktops in Haykuro's new build as well!
Figured it was worth a mention
Download link is this : http://www.4shared.com/account/file/.../Launcher.html

No, it's just a fixed link from the first post. It didn't parse correctly, I guess.
Anyways, here's another annoying bug (or feature?) that is prevalent in 6.0r1 and not there in JF1.5. Take a look at the difference between the two screens, left is JF1.5 and right is Haykuro's 6.0r1:
It seems as though all the "bold" fonts in the browser actually are blurry, and seem to be rendered twice, or something similar. ****.
Oh, and of course we all know about the broken-as-**** location API for the browser and weather widget (among other receivers)..
Interesting
On mine Location is working fine?? im starting to think 6.0h1 is especially different for everyone
Possibly. It worked the first time I tried it, but then after that it doesn't work anymore. I saw another thread where 2 people were claiming the same.
Do you notice that bold font issue? For example, look at twidroid, anything "bold" in there looks like crap.

i can see what you mean about the fuzzy/bluryness but it only looks bad when blown up on a PC screen a-la screenshots,, on the G1 itself i can hearly notice any problems

The two Launchers store widget information differently, so you'll have to remove your old widget and add them back.
Hmm, great post. But I actually just realized (opening my phone on the home screen for the first time for this build) that the tab GOES to the bottom...I actually think thats really neat. The bug is correct, the screen seems to get off-centered, but, I like the tab at the bottom. It seems more like common sense, thats how your looking at it when its closed (tab at the bottom) when its open, tab should be at the bottom (I think anyway).
So anyone know how to fix that off-center but keep the tab down there?
Thanks

4. The phone should reboot displaying the new theme.
One word of warning, if its not done correctly your phone may fail to boot. So the original files would need to be restored or the phone re imaged. So its worth having a backup before hand

All the notification bar icons are all colour coded, so they would need to be changed as well.
If you want to change the notification bar just change the statusbar_background in the framework-res.apk
how do i do that lol

Could you please give me a step by step procedure as i and new to all this but i really like your theme and desperate to flaunt it on my x10 in front of me mates...
I dont even know how to open the adb shell and do i need to mount the SD card or just debugging mode is enough..
Cheers
JD
Just DEBUG, plug phone JUST DEBUG MODE, no SD CARD mode, make sure your rooted, get the dark x10 theme, its got the cmds adbs etc, replace the dark x10 files in "CONTENT" from the dark x10 theme package and run the cmd

Can u be a bit specific mate...sorry for being such an idiot but i really dont understand it....
JD
update
Done what u said....everything savvy except that my email and messagin applications are back in the original x10 blue theme....which i hate..
HELP
Couple questions:
1. Will this work if we have rooted using something like Universal Androot?
I'm pretty new to adb as well, so I have a couple questions regarding these steps (quoted)

To open the adb shell we just type in "adb shell" right? (after checking that adb devices are working and such.)
And for step 3, are each of those lines followed by enter? On my screen there is a $ symbol before each command.
Help is appreciated! Thanks

Yeah, true enough. It's a whole different kettel of fish now - we just need to edit the xml's (decompiling/recompiling with apktool) and drag them into the framework now.
I just had a bit of a play... I managed to change the color of the provider text by editing res/layout/status_bar_expanded.xml. Changing status_bar_icon.xml didn't seem to have any effect but I did add some alpha. I will have another look tomorrow and post what I find out in my themes reference thread.

Has anyone here modded framework-res.apk located in system/framework?
I'm doing what is wrote in this guide, but phone dosen't boot then. I had to flash it with SEUS.
Here is what i do. Am i missing or wronging something?
Code:
Step 1:
Connect phone to pc, enable usb debugging and open adb. Type:
adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk framework-res.apk
That will pull your framework-res.apk to whatever folder is displaying in your command line.
Step 2:
Find the framework-res.apk on your hard drive, right click and open with 7zip.
Step 3:
Use png's here or create your own and dump into the appropriate folder within framework-res.apk.
Step 4:
When you are done editing the files open up adb and type the following command:
adb shell mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock2 /system
adb push framework-res.apk /sdcard/framework-res.apk
adb shell dd if=/sdcard/framework-res.apk of=/system/framework/framework-res.apk
That will put the new framework-res.apk on your phone. It should automatically reboot (if not reboot it) and your changes should be applied!
When running the script above you can replace framework-res.apk with whatever you want. For example, Timescape.apk
Remember, it is CASE sensitive I made this problem many times)
Check out this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=834806
There's a few things you could be doing wrong, the one that springs to mind is if your doing some xml mods and not adding resources.arsc to the framework in the proper manner.

Thanks.
I resolved all my problems.
It depended on unsecure shell.
All worked fine.
Thanks again
Thanks to this little beauty I got all of the icons done in one shot .
I have attached the framework with the only modification being the white status bar and dark icons (and the fact that you can see the clock, of course ).
Don't forget to unzip the framework, don't just rename it
woot woot, pretty awesome, nice work indeed....now we actually need a completely white theme.....

[GUIDE] Changing lockscreen and clock font.

I just wanted to give you guys who aren't proficient with modding themselves a chance to change the lockscreen and taskbar clock font (which I personally don't like) to in this case match the rest of the honeycomb fonts.
The end result of this quick guide:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
First you will need to have adb set up, if you don't know how to set up adb follow the guide http://theunlockr.com/2009/10/06/how-to-set-up-adb-usb-drivers-for-android-devices/ to get adb up and running.
Requirements:
adb
Asus PC Sync Software link
USB Debugging turned on in settings
a .ttf font file (only required if you want another font than used in the guide)
Step one: pulling the original clock files for back up
We'll start simple, the idea here is that if you ever want to revert back to the original font, you will have a back up of the font just in case. Lucky for you I will however also be providing a back up of the original font files at the end of this post.
Open up cmd (or terminal on OSX).
navigate to your android-sdk\tools folder through the terminal (if you do not know how to do this check the adb set up guide linked earlier in this post).
Now to allow modification of the system files we will enter the command "adb remount".
Now we will pull the font files which are located within /system/fonts/ by entering these 3 commands: "adb pull /system/fonts/AndroidClock.ttf", "adb pull /system/fonts/AndroidClock_Highlight.ttf", "adb pull /system/fonts/AndroidClock_Solid.ttf"
On your computer go to the android-sdk/tools folder and move the AndroidClock, AndroidClock_Solid and AndroidClock_Highlight to wherever you want to store these (these are the original back up) and make sure to remove them from the android-sdk\tools folder.
--------------------------
Step two: replacing the original clock font with your own
In this step we will pull the font used for all the other type in honeycomb called DroidSans and replace the original clock font files with this font as to fool honeycomb into thinking it is actually the original font.
while having adb open, enter the command "adb pull /system/fonts/DroidSans.ttf".
Now navigate to your android-sdk\tools folder again and make 3 copies of DroidSans.ttf in the tools folder.
Name one of the files AndroidClock, name another AndroidClock_Solid, and name the last AndroidClock_Highlight.
now go back to adb and enter these 3 commands: "adb push AndroidClock_Solid.ttf /system/fonts/", "adb push AndroidClock.ttf /system/fonts/", "adb push AndroidClock_Highlight.ttf /system/fonts/".
Reboot your transformer and voila you're done.
If you want to replace the lockscreen font with your own font and not DroidSans, simply skip bullet point 1 and 2 of step 2 and copy your own .ttf font file to your android-sdk\tools folder and make 3 copies of that.
I hope you guys enjoy this guide, and if you have any suggestions as how to simplify this guide even further, feel free to post your suggestion.
EDIT: the original font files are in the .zip file!
Don't forget to remount /system as rw ("mount -o rw,remount /system") so you can modify the font files.

Go to the transformer product page on the asus website then to the download tab (http://www.asus.com/Eee/Eee_Pad/Eee_Pad_Transformer_TF101/#download), select your OS and it should be under utilities.
Here's a screenshot of the clock as well.

Sure, here it is!
Very well written guide, just one question does the tablet need to be rooted to change fonts?
I assume that the clock font provided here is the same font as the other text on the home page?
The only question I have is, can I change the colour of the font as well? I'd like it to have the same colour as the buttons. It would also be interesting to change the colour of the wifi and battery indicator. Even better if that could change depending on the level! So for example, when battery and wifi are indicating low(er), they change to yellow/orange/red progressively. I guess this is possible but would require some additional programming to link to different graphics/icons (assuming the software utilises a lookup table approach, rather than logical equations...)

you'd have to edit the image files in the framework files, which is a whole lot more complicated than this.

Anything that has to do with modifying the /system folder requires root, so yes.

[THeme] ICS Blue [THEME][WIP]

Theme :
I come from a Development group called Team Whiskey, I primarily made Roms and Themes for Samsung phones before, but I know have the Atrix 2. Here is my first ICS based theme
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
IF anyone wants to install it and can follow brief instructions here you go:
( Sidenote - you need to have ADB installed, you can either install the full Android SDK or copy it from Super One Click)
In a command prompt you want to use:
1.) adb push framework-res.apk /sdcard
2.) adb push SystemUI.apk /sdcard
then
3.) adb shell
4.) su
5.) mount remount,rw /dev/null /system
6.) cp /sdcard/framework-res.apk /system/framework
7.) cp /sdcard/SystemUI.apk /system/app (the case is sensitive)
8.) rm /system/app/SystemUI.odex
9.) reboot
The SystemUI.apk has been deodexed. I have an almost working script for our CWM, so going forward, we can a simple install instead of the tedious manual stuff.
DOWNLOADs:
framework-res.apk
SystemUI.apk
Please enjoy, and if you have any questions, feel free to PM me. I am still working on our Extended Power menu and the Settings menu( which is the power widget like you see in the screen shot), if you want the unfinished Settings.apk please pm me for it. Like I said, it works flawlessly, but the icons are a little weird.
Future:
16 Lockscreens, I have 9 of them working.
Great to have you aboard! Some very nice work. What about notification toggles? How hard would they be to implement?
Not hard at all actually! You know what is funny about that, all of the Samsung roms have the toggles, and we spent days and days ripping them out to give us this look the motorola is going here ! I was planning on doing the same style as miui on that, you know the scrollable one. I will work on that after the lockscreens.
Awesome man. Looks perfect with my setup.
How did you remove at&t from the notification bar? I have tried finding strings.XML and can't..

followed the above to the T. Got a Read only error. Changed RW to RO in the cmd prompt and then was able to successfully push SystemUI.apk to system/app. I did it before through root explorer the same way and it just kept force closing. Just rebooted and it all works now.
Thanks given for this!

Looks great so far! Would you mind including detailed instructions for backing up the existing files as well? Don't mind doing things via ADB, but I'm far from being an expert.

ADB pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk
ADB pull /system/app/SystemUI.apk
ADB pull /system/app/SystemUI.odex
anyone can post the original framework-res.apk, systemui.apk and systemUI.odex??
i accidentally replace mine by copy ICS blue theme into sd card.
For some reason I always have a grey circle with a plus in the middle of it on the top right of my status bar. What's with that? Other than that my only complain is the clear button when you pull down the status bar. Seems to have a little extra room in the box under the word clear.
Updates?

So i tried to install this bionic rom.....and fail.....
This is for Atrix2 why would you try this on the Bionic? But I guess that is how we find out what works and what doesn't...carry on

Did your phone soft-brick? Or did you try restoring a backup?
Since installing this I noticed I'm getting "phantom" icons in my notification bar, almost like a burn in on television. Tilt the phone to extreme angles to see them better, can anyone confirm?

Yea they do disappear. Seems like you'll get a new text message update or whatever, clear it from the status bar, it goes phantom, then disappears. Other than that I have a grey circle with a plus in the middle that's always at the right of my status bar.
