I changed the application Calendar mainly for myself. Those brown wooden colors...
I would first have to thank you user agentdr8 for his deodex, again.
How to:
First, backup your existing TouchWizCalendar.apk and TouchWizCalendar.odex to somewhere else then remove them and replace with the attached TouchWizCalendar.apk, reboot.

VZW Tab - Calendar
Hey guys, I backed up my calendar.apk , and odex, and then deleted them and installed the new touchwiz calendar.apk It didnt work(which is ok) I then deleted touchwiz calendar.apk , and odex , and replaced it with the original calendar.apk and odex, and rebooted my system. My calendar is still showing up with no wood border, and whenever i try to access "calendars(in order to choose which calendars I want to display) it force closes. Can anyone help me out, maybe send me all the original apk's and odex files for calendar?
[email protected]
I don't know if Buzz mentioned on his first post, but the file posted most likely will only work on GSM tabs. The CDMA tabs (Sprint/Verizon) seem to have different framework files so both the modified Calendar and Contacts apks posted won't work. I asked one individual to send me the framework files from his Sprint tab but haven't heard back. If you'd like to volunteer your framework files and your calendar.apk and .odex, I can probably deodex them for you and put BF's modified pngs into it.
Does your Verizon tab have different calendar apps installed? The GSM-based ones have just TouchWizCalendar.apk/odex, but you mention a Calendar.apk/odex?
Hi,
Just wanting to say, mod is awesome - clean and simple
Just curious though - have you simply removed/replaced the images in the apks or have there been other tweaks..?
Having noticed that the Dialer pane in Contacts, Launcher, Mail and Camera don't scale as screen density increases. Would altering these apps so that they scale be do-able?
Thanks

Region doesn't matter.
How: e.g. contacts.apk
open contacts.apk with winrar, and u will see inside some folders.
All image files are always in res folder. U can unzip res folder to desktop and inside res folders are subfolders like drawable, drawable-hdpi...
there u have all images from apk. Im sure u know how to see image size and image formats (jpg, png..)
Than check what do u want to change, take one of your pics, resize it to same size, rename in same name as original and replace with existing one. Easy...
After editing just put new image back into folder in rar.
Navigate to eg. drawable-hdpi in winrar and put inside new image. Winrar will be auto replace file with new one.
Sure, first create backup of your original apk...in case you do something wrong.
hum.. I wasn't that careful, and just moved the original apk elsewhere and replaced with your apk.
Of course it didn't work, calendar didn't show in the applications drawer.
I replaced with the original but it force closes every 2mn, and still do not show in the app drawer.
Any tip?
I would like to avoid having to reflash my tab just for that...

Hmm, im not sure, did u delete both original files, apk & odex?
than just copy new apk...and must work. maybe even without reboot.
U can try this:
download original files forem here:

-delete your old apk or odex files from app folder
-copy originals files (from link above)
-reboot tab, than your calendar MUST work.
-download calendar.apk from first page
-go back into app folder, delete TouchWizCalendar.apk + TouchWizCalendar.odex
-than copy new TouchWizCalendar.apk (downloaded from first page)
-MUST be ok

I use Modaco custom ROM which is deodexed so I don't have any odex file in my /system/app
Would it work in this case?

There might be some differences in the framework files for JMI that MCR uses vs. say Roto's JMIv2. I used the modded Contacts and Calendar from JME on my new JMIv2 install and it works just fine.
If you'd like to upload your stock MCR TouchWizCalendar.apk I can compare it to the one from JME and see what needs to be changed.

I like Official Korean Froyo, it runs good and smooth.
And i like the stock SMS app on that release, it has a bubble conversation type, and it run smooth (even when compared to GO SMS).

But, it has disadvantages for who lived outside Korea, which there is no limitation 80 character each SMS.
Okay, because Korean Froyo has limitation 80 character while sending SMS.
I am trying to decompile Conversations.APK from /system/app with APKTool
I am using framework-res.apk, blur-res.apk and moto-res.apk as the framework.
It was successfuly decompiled.
I am trying to search XML which responsible limiting the character while sending SMS.
I might found it, the name is public.XML inside \res\values of that decompiled APK
I found this line:
<public type="string" name="convert_max_chars_reached" id="0x7f0b0174" />
I think, that is the line i'm searching..
But what is "0x7f0b0174"
is it hexadecimal or something..?
if it's hexadecimal, is 7f0b0174 the hexadecimal of "80"?
because if it's true, then that is the exact line i am searching,
and i want to change it with proper character limitation just like another region.
thank you,
i'm just a noob.. please forgive me if it's just stupid thing to ask
This is more complicated. It is an id, leading to location of the value you are searching for. It should be located somewhere in classes.dex as some .smali programmed in java.

okay..
it's not that simple as i thought.
it's not a value i could simply change.
so, i have to change the value in classes.dex right?
where i can find classes.dex?
because i can't find it on my decompiled folder...
If you decompile with APKmanager, then you should have both, resources.arsc and classes.dex decompiled.
But after decompilation, there is no classes.dex, but folder with many .smali files.
And that's all I know. No java programming
if there were a switch to this in the said apk, it should be in arrays/integers/values.xml, just saying.
its an hex pointer or identifier of a part of string xml file where all the string values are stored. i know that this might sound more complicated than you expected, but if you can decode the smali files or the dex file, you might be able to get an file with all the strings on the apk. that is where you need to change the char limit. And just for your information, if you grab the Conversation.apk from a froyo tmobile us rom and replace the default one on /system/app using root explorer or adb, you might actually be able to change the limitation. i haven't tried it yet, but as far as i know, it should work. good luck

because i realize it is system apps, which come in pair:

i google it an i found something, it is system apps, which the DEX file is not lies within the APK itself, but inside ODEX file.
there's two file named Conversation in /system/app/, it is Conversation.APK and Conversation.ODEX
so how to extract the classes.dex from that ODEX file?
about change the APP from the other SBF release,
um... maybe this is the last option for me
but i might reconsider that. i have to change two file right? the APK and ODEX?

the photo/avatar of me is not shown, but the photo/avatar of the person you text to is shown.
here i attach the decompiled folder of Korean Conversation.APK using APKTool.
and i might attacht the ODEX file too...
If you want just bubbles, try the conversations.apk app from 3.4.3.11.

what? i didn't knew that.
before i am using korean froyo, i am using pays 5.1 which based from 3.4.3-11.
i didn't check it though, i straight apply pays zip after flashing.
and when i am on pays rom, default sms apps is not bubbles
maybe pays edit that on his rom
um.. what is the safest way to change the conversation.APK and conversation.ODEX?
when i try to delete something from \system\app with root explorer,
suddenly the app cannot be started again,
even though i have been copy-paste the new one to the \system\app
I think you should deodex that rom first. Then you'll have all classes.dex in all apk files and no odex files.

Delete the old ones first using root explorer, then copy the new ones there using root explorer again, and change permissions of all files (you need to copy odex files too) to rw-r-r using root explorer. Then reboot Sometimes, the app doesnt start if you dont reboot. I've tried it.

EDIT 07-06-23: Xposed module (made by @agentdr8) that does the same thing can be found here.
EDIT 07-06-21: Guide is obsolete and does not work. The ROM I was using (Carbon) had native FB syncing enabled already. Xposed module is in the works.
EDIT 07-06-14: Tested working with KitKat! There's a great app on the Play Store called Sync.me that claims to be able to sync phone numbers, though I'm not sure if that's really true so see if works for you. Sync.me DOES NOT sync contact phone numbers... You will still need to do this mod to do that.
So apparently Facebook and Google had a cat fight and the result was that AOSP users ended up losing the ability to sync our contacts with the Facebook native app.
Now, there are apps on the Play Store which will allow you to sync things such as events, timeline, HQ photos, etc., but NONE of them allow you to sync phone numbers.
This guide will teach you how to modify a certain /system/app/ file (ContactsProvider.apk OR GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk depending on Android version) to allow Facebook syncing.
Required Programs: 7-Zip/WinRAR, ADB recommended
Step 1: Modifying the apk:
a. Make a folder called "res" and inside it make another one called "value"
b. Inside the "values" folder, make a .txt file and edit it to include this:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<resources>
<string-array name="unrestricted_packages">
<item>com.facebook.katana</item>
</string-array>
</resources>
c. Save the file and rename it to "arrays.xml"
d. Copy ContactsProvider.apk/GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk to your PC and make a backup
e. Open it with 7-Zip/WinRAR, drag and drop the "res" folder into the apk, click "OK/YES" to any prompts
f. Transfer the apk back to your phone and overwrite the existing one in /system/app/
Step 2: Database Editing (you may or may not need to do this, do it anyways ):
a. (Optional) Clear your Contacts Storage app data as well as your Facebook app data.
b. (Optional) Reboot your phone.
c. Type this into adb shell or in Terminal Emulator (make sure to be in root [type "su"]):
Code:
sqlite3 /data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases/contacts2.db 'ALTER TABLE raw_contacts ADD COLUMN is_restricted VARCHAR';
If you get an error code saying duplicate/it already exists, then you're done.
Should anything go wrong, restore your original ContactsProvider.apk/GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk, clear your Contacts Storage app data, and reboot.
Your Facebook contacts should start syncing. If it still doesn't sync reboot your phone twice and that should do it.

All this does is fix the permissions to allow the Facebook app to do what it was already programmed to do. There's no way to make it do more beyond what it's original capability was.
Also, as a general note, this thread has an APK that can be downloaded so you can skip doing the decompiling or sqlite modifications. Note that it'll only work on AOSP and CM10/10.1 roms. For any other roms, do it yourself.

Well, I guess I kind of exaggerated when I said EVERYONE knew about it...
I saw it on the internet somewhere... I don't know where it is now haha
i want to reopen this thread and add this info for everyone. there is an easier way, the way i did it. for those who dont have knowledge of decompiling and compiling apks this way is the best.
use root explorer , copy ur contacts provider apk to computer, open it the way it is using a zip rar manager , make the file: value/arrays.xml on the pc and add them as they are inside res... like that u dont need to decompile and recompile the apk. copy the apk back to system/app of the phone.
next step , uninstall facebook, sync ur contacts with all the other accounts you want and when sync is finished, copy the database file ( /data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases/contacts2.db ) to ur computer , open it with some sqlite manager and modify the table: raw_contacts. add a line : is_restricted , dont choose what value it will have , leave it blank. save the database and copy it back to its location in the phone. install facebook and sync. :good: tested on cm10.2.

Hey, it's been a while since I last did this and this guide may be obsolete. I will check to see if this still works on KitKat (4.4.3) and will update the guide as soon as I can. I'm not entirely sure, but the Sync.me app in the Play Store advertises that it syncs Facebook phone numbers as well. I'm not sure if that's actually true since AFAIK there is no way for an app to do that unless the ContactsProvider is modded (I may be wrong). Check to see if it works for you.
EDIT: Updated OP with completely revised guide (thanks @kessaras). You should have less problems with this method as you don't need to decompile/recompile the apk at all.

Hm, that's weird. Yea, no harm in doing so anyways and it only takes an extra step .
Does this still work if GoogleContactsSyncAdapter is odexed? I have a GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.odex file in /system/app as well...
I tried it, and it didn't seem to work, then I attempted to deodex the file and do it again. I must not know what I'm doing (likely) because it didn't work.
I followed the steps as closely as possible; the only thing I noticed was the presence of that odex file. When I rebooted, I used sqlite editor on my phone to make sure the column had been added to the table. It had.
Nothing happened. My google contacts slowly started coming back, but Facebook never did.
Here's what the Facebook account section looks like:

Does this still work if GoogleContactsSyncAdapter is odexed? I have a GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.odex file in /system/app as well...
I tried it, and it didn't seem to work, then I attempted to deodex the file and do it again. I must not know what I'm doing (likely) because it didn't work.
I followed the steps as closely as possible; the only thing I noticed was the presence of that odex file. When I rebooted, I used sqlite editor on my phone to make sure the column had been added to the table. It had.
Nothing happened. My google contacts slowly started coming back, but Facebook never did.
Here's what the Facebook account section looks like:

Hey, I haven't tested this on odexed ROMs yet. My guess is you gotta be deodexed for this mod to work because it does involve modifying an apk .

Alright, I've updated my rom to a deodexed version of stock. I've been trying to get this mod working pretty much all day and I can't seem to make it work. I did however find some information. First, on KitKat, GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk AND ContactsProvider.apk both exist. GoogleContactsSyncAdapter is in /system/app, and ContactsProvider is in /system/priv-app. Okay, cool.
Now, the second weird thing. I've modified these apks about a hundred times, following the guide to the letter. But I don't think I'm doing things right. There is just no change. I can verify the database gets updated, that's never the problem. The FB contact sync option just doesn't show up. It think that something's not working right with the apk modding... All the other xml files in the apks are full of binary data, not just plain ASCII.
Also, I downloaded this file and looked at it in 7zip. It doesn't even have the value folder, much less the arrays.xml file.
Do you need to decompile/recompile here?
Thanks!

Hey, try modifying only GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk in /system/app and leaving ContactsProvider.apk alone. I got it to work on my device that way. IIRC, as soon as I replaced GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk with the modified version and opened Facebook, I was greeted with the sync screen.

Alright, I just gave that a try again just in case. No good, nothing changed.
Do you have any other ideas? I feel like I'm following your directions correctly, but I can't seem to get it. Could you maybe possibly send me your GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk file?
Thanks for taking the time to help me out.

Huh, that's weird. If you don't get the sync screen from Facebook, you can manually check the sync settings in the app itself.

Confirmed to be working on stock, odexed LSZ.
One needs to remeber to manually remove three relevant .odex files from /system/app/ and then flash the zip from recovery (zip only replaces apk files).
I suppose that it should also work on LM5 if you'll remember to remove the odex files before flash.
THANK YOU, OP!

Ok I really have to say this: Google!
Ok guys I thought I'd share how I installed this widget. It looks far more pleasing to the eye, than the old widget.
Also....in doing so I noticed something interesting...
1. download & extract files to a folder.
2. copy AccuWeatherWidget_Main.apk (preload/symlink/system/app)
3. paste to System/app and ensure permissions are set to = rw-r--r--
4. copy AccuWeatherDaemon.apk and AccuWeatherWidget.apk (system/app)
5. paste to System/app and permissions = rw-r--r--permissions = rw-r--r--
6. go to "settings - application manager - all" and in Weather Widget Main, clear data.
7. Remove old widget from your homescreen. Reboot phone, and then place widget back on homescreen.
The interesting observation was that, sometimes the apk files would not copy across. In ES file explorer the message was something like "file was not successfully copied". But if I tried again 2 mins later, I might get a different message. "File copy successful".
There doesn't appear to be any logical reason as to why I can successfully copy & paste apk's sometimes, but other times I can't.
Has anyone else experienced this behaviour?
edit - I am on BurtROM LSZ. I have no idea what "odexed" or "deodexed" means. But I can't find any .odex files in the /system/app/ folder.
Just install it on XXLSZ_Stock_deodexed_rooted_eybee1970.zip via recovery, work perfect.
Many thank's
Hi,
I upgraded to KitKat a few hours ago and missed gigamatrix icons. I tried to flash them but the locations are different and because of that just a few were changed.
I replaced the original icons inside the apks with gigamatrix ones (Must-icon/signal/batterie/wifi) and replaced the apks with root explorer and its working. Haven't found any problems so far.
I use CloudyStock 1.2 Firmware for the 802. I don't know if this will work for other roms, but if you want to try, make a backup of the original apks first.
Extract the zip file/files to get the apks and put them into the corresponding folder. Your rom has to be rooted.
Three to overwrite. LGEasySettings.apk, LgNfc.apk, LGWirelessStorage.apk - copy the apks to root>system>app.
Three to overwrite. LGContacts.apk, LGSettings.apk, LGSystemUI.apk - copy the apks to root>system>priv-app.
One to overwrite. framework-res.apk - copy the apk to root>system>framework. This file is not always included, but even without i haven't found problems with CloudyStock 1.2/1.3
Please make a nandroid backup first. Just in case.
If you don't know how, then I wouldn't use this files.
I'm not responsable for the problems that can occur.
The files listed here are not flashable, you need to replace the apks.
CloudyStock 1.2
systemapp
systemprivapp
rzeljko had problems with locked BACK-HOME-MENU buttons on Stock Rom 4.4.2 D802
If this happens to you too, you can try these files
http://d-h.st/rQf
http://d-h.st/2Pp
Files for spiderio-kat-v1.1
http://d-h.st/wXe
Update for spiderio-kat-v1.1b
http://d-h.st/65I
Giagamatrix for CloudyFlex v2.0 from motomoto00, works with v2.1, too. Reported by Floodland
https://www.dropbox.com/s/0rn9zuipdpcd7m2/Gigamatrix_CloundtFlex_v2.0.zip
Files for CloudyStock 2
http://d-h.st/4NP
Try them if you want, but as always use at your own risk. Accidentally I named the file pro2, but it is for Stock2
Update - Don't replace the LGSettings.apk. If you do, you can't access the Settings anymore. The app is crashing.
Lightning Rom V2
http://d-h.st/bLi
Update!!
You can try to flash them now on KitKat 4.4.2!
I have tried them with some different roms they work. Still for D802,
but maybe they will work with other versions, too. I don't know.
Use the attachments below, no need to extract them anymore.
Just flash them, I put the battery, data, signal and wifi icons in one single file.
I also made files for Cloudyflex, cuz the dimensions of the icons and the subfolders are different.
I also included the icons on the left side of the satusbar - like:
wireless storage, usb, wifi-hotspot and some others.
If there is a rom which is not working with one of these files,
please try to change it by yourself. It's not difficult.
Confirmed to work with:
Pardus Hd Rom 6.0 by westwood24
Stock KitKat D802 by tpteam6
CloudyStock by me
CloudyPro by me
CloudyFlex by me
Pardus Hd Rom 7.0 by me
Hope you like it

Uhh explain in english.
All I did was to extract the files from gigamatrix to see what apks are inside and then the whole firmware to get the original files. I renamed the proper apks in the firmware folders system/app and system/priv-app (3 in each folder) to *.zip and extracted them as well.
There is a folder \vrtheme\system\app\......apk\res\drawable-xxhdpi inside each gigamatrixs zip. This folder contains the pictures - with these replace the pictures in the original files, zip (I use 7zip normal compression) them and rename them to *.apk again. Then replace the files and reboot your device.
Hope thats not too hard to understand

extract systemapp.zip and copy the apks to root>system>app. Three to overwrite. LGEasySettings.apk, LgNfc.apk, LGWirelessStorage.apk
extract systemprivapp.zip and copy the apks to root>system>priv-app. Three to overwrite. LGContacts.apk, LGSettings.apk, LGSystemUI.apk
The LGSystemUI.apk contains the icons for battery, wifi and signal, too. So if you replace the LGSystemUI.apk with mine you will get these icons too

Hello after i installed those icons and skin , i have a huge problem in Contacts apk. , it is crashing all the time and i cant even use the dialer ,i cant see my contacts .
I m sorry for my english ,i will post a screenshot now.
Problem appears in both cases , default and custom icons .
Please i need some advice , i even did factory reset and the problem remains .
@Salamender
In your previous post there a two links for the Contacts but none for the EasySettings. I have used the one from Cloudy Pro II V 1.1
I changed only the musticons, not the wifi, batterie or signal icons

With this you can flash 4.4.2 offline, but you need the right kdz for your phone. There is an Instructions.docx inside. Have you tried the official LG Flash Tool, I believe it has a repair option.
But you are loosing recovery and root. There are also some posts in the help forum how to flash your phone
DISCLAIMER: I did not make this, nor do I want credit! I just installed it on my phone and wanted share my experience and using @ins5736 from Here - He stated if I got it to work to post up the info in AT&T forums
Original credit goes to:
@zone23 developed this with help from @OptimusRs
INSTRUCTIONS(altered slightly from linked post for what worked for me):
ROOT is required for this
I use Root Explorer for all of this since copying files and changing permissions is easy in it.
Download and extract the files.
Navigate to system/priv-app and locate stock LGKeyguard.apk and LGKeyguard.odex
Backup these files in case something goes awry! I made a copy and keep them backed up on my Dropbox.
Delete the stock files.
Move the modded LGKeyguard.apk to the system/priv-app folder(keep in mind that the one you downloaded is spelled lgkeyguard.apk so you'll need to rename it and make the LGK part UPPERCASE) then change permissions to rw-r--r--(644) and then reboot. During the reboot you should see "Android is Upgrading"
Per post#2 below - editing name may not matter - your choice on that
I was now able to see a shine effect which was showing me it was Sunny outside on my lockscreen:victory:
It got cloudy so I was able to get a screen shot finally of the lockscreen

the caps 'LGK' doesn't matter... mine are lowercase, no issue. also you don't need the odex file from the download, when you reboot the phone will make it's own odex file.
it should also be noted that if you lock your screen prior to rebooting then systemui will crash constantly which will make it difficult to do anything but pull the battery.
other than that, you're spot on

Got it - I edited the steps to remove the .odex step and added your point about the naming structure.

Not sure if serious? It's a stock wallpaper - I haven't found something I want to run on the lockscreen yet
How do I change the permissions?

It won't let me copy to the /priv-app folder. Do you need to be rooted to do this?

Yes root is required
Do you need to have the weather widget running? Do you have to have Weather animation checked on in Lockscreen settings?
I am asking because every time I try to check the checkbox in lockscreen settings it tells me I need to change refresh interval in Weather settings, takes me over there to change it, then when I come back the check box is unchecked. I am not getting anything on the Lockscreen as far as weather goes.
Maybe some app out of the bloat that I de-bloated needs to be put back in?
Anyone has any ideas?
Thanks,
Work but other problems arose...
After I applied this fix, but I could no longer use my HOME and APPS buttons afterwards! There were also other strange behavior like the LOCKSCREEN would no longer even show up after I shut the phone off!
I removed the fix to get things back to normal...
Too bad!

My buddy just had the same thing happen on his phone, we were messing with it for a while and it would not remained checked. Although his GPS was on, i had him launch google maps to make sure location locked on. Went back to check the Weather animation and BAM it now works :victory: Not sure if this will work for you but it worked for him, worth a shot

I just opened the 'Weather' app that comes with the phone and set it up, then checked the box and it works fine

DISCLAIMER: I did not make this, nor do I want credit! I just installed it on my phone and wanted share my experience and using @ins5736 from Here - He stated if I got it to work to post up the info in AT&T forums
Original credit goes to:
@zone23 developed this with help from @OptimusRs
INSTRUCTIONS(altered slightly from linked post for what worked for me):
ROOT is required for this
I use Root Explorer for all of this since copying files and changing permissions is easy in it.
Download and extract the files.
Navigate to system/priv-app and locate stock LGKeyguard.apk and LGKeyguard.odex
Backup these files in case something goes awry! I made a copy and keep them backed up on my Dropbox.
Delete the stock files.
Move the modded LGKeyguard.apk to the system/priv-app folder(keep in mind that the one you downloaded is spelled lgkeyguard.apk so you'll need to rename it and make the LGK part UPPERCASE) then change permissions to rw-r--r--(644) and then reboot. During the reboot you should see "Android is Upgrading"
Per post#2 below - editing name may not matter - your choice on that
I was now able to see a shine effect which was showing me it was Sunny outside on my lockscreen:victory:

Did you delete the original apk and odex file? You can't just rename then to bak. And you have to transfer the new apk first reboot then the new odex reboot. I had the same issues as you moving both at the same time.
Does someone have the apk file? The link to google drive only has the odex file now for some reason...thanks!
still no luck
I followed the procedure, exactly what have you written but still no luck.. I infact turn on the location and bring weather widget to home screen, I can see clouds moving in weather widgets but not on the lock screen..
Any help would be appreciated.

Both files are there. There is only one file that shows, but it is a .zip file that will contain both required files within the archive.

You can rename them to .apk.bak, or in my case, .apk2. As long as the file extension is changed, the file will not be read as though it is the original file
Is the modified odex file completely necessary for this process? I renamed both the apk and odex files, replaced the apk with the modified one and got weather animations after the first reboot. Should I bother replacing the odex file still?

It's not necessary from what others have said. Doesn't hurt anything as long as you do the apk first, reboot and then the odex file reboot

Makes sense. Thanks.
Has anyone else noticed the lockscreen rotating after installing this apk?
