[mod] My Amigo Skin Ported to Android Igo My Way - Android Apps and Games

I created this for Amigo a long time ago. I made a quick port for the Android version, and I thought I would share it. I have ZERO plans to develop it more, but if anybody else would like to develop it, go ahead. I've included the gro converter to turn the file to a zip for editing.
Problems:
Only works in landscape mode.
There are alignment issues.
The starting animation is off center.
I'm sure there are more problems.
All these problems were fixed by Mmarz. Bobroberts has gone ahead and polished the skin and added multiple resolutions. Thank you to both of them!
You can use this skin by copying the data.gro to /data/data/com.navngo.igo.javaclient/
Back up your original data.gro first. You may need to change the permissions on the new data.gro to "777"
Here is what the skin looked in Amigo: http://www.igo8navigation.com/index.php?topic=161.0
To summarize, you can add vias, advanced saving of favorites, add/remove speed cameras, add/remove road blocks, create routes, and lots more.
Well, enjoy.
Use Bobroberts's version found here:

Thank you for this!
I worked on this skin and got most of the portrait mode working:
MyAmigoSkinV41AndroidFix9
This is the 9th version I've made. (I upgraded the version number because I added some goodies)
Place the data.gro inside the folder /data/data/com.navngo.igo.javaclient/
I've included an audio folder with some wav files from the skin that you must place in the following folder if you want the red light camera voice prompts to work:
/data/data/com.navngo.igo.javaclient/audio

See above.

Thanks for this, very nice!

What does it do when you press the exit button? Nothing?
Can you send me the data.gro that you used before that worked?

Sorry, I should have elaborated; the program goes thru the exit sequence, and then reboots.
I think I found the culprit, in \ui_android\common\ui\general.ui
<state ExitState>
<uselayer ui_Exiting/>
<script init>
remote_call 0 "android.on_exit_pressed" - change to: remote_call "android.on_exit_pressed"
1 EXIT
</script>
</state>

Both ways work for me. I'll change it to your way since it is more compatible.... I guess. Not sure what the "0" does. Thanks! I'm really glad I found this skin for Android. I loved it for Amigo.

Me too. I considered freddysams' Amigo skin the best out there. Fascinating to follow his developing it from v10 or so up to his last - v40!
Thanks for the fixes, I know how much work is involved, been there, done that.

[REQ] Igo Skin/Modded apk for QHD Resolution for Atrix, Sensation,etc [I can pay $]​
I need it badly which is the best for Middle east navigation (United Arab Emirates). I can pay some $ if somebody can provide me a modded apk with QHD resolution support.
Thanks.

You might be able to use this skin. Try adding the following to your sys.txt:
Code:
[rawdisplay]
screen_x=640
screen_y=910
screen_x2=960
screen_y2=590
highres=1
double_screen=1
show_cursor=0
combine_dirty=1
You can find sys.txt in this folder: /data/data/com.navngo.igo.javaclient/

For which resolutions is this skin?
I checked the link you provided and says that support 320x240 resolution, but it is very big for that.
Is there any way that I can do to make it fit, on 320x240 screen or it doesn't supported?

No it doesn't support it. It would take a lot of work to make all the resolutions function. This is 480x320. Igo does have a "stretch" option, but I don't think you can make it shrink.

thanks for this, i was using the only other 480x320 skin i could find: 12Carrera12 Sbertaud13 V7.0d EUR+ , but unfortunately some parts are in french, this one has the advanced options at least in english
EDIT: you can also use thin igo v1.2 http://oron.com/8c1dbsrv5rqs/2.rar.html if you dont have root or just want an easier way to edit data as it installs and run all data from SD

I made one last touch up to the interface. Everything should work for the most part.

Application not found
Each time I modify something in the zip, iGO didn't start: application not found.
I have modified a lot of data.gro for win version without problem.

Open the file, within the zip that you modified, using a hex editor. For me, sometimes random invisible characters are inserted at the beginning of the file. Delete those using the hex editor.
Never use the return key inside of a windows text editor as it might add hidden characters as well. Use copy and paste of nearby lines instead, and then overwrite the line.
Never completely unzip the zip. Extract the files you would like to edit. Modify them, and then add them back into the zip.
Last comment, does the unmodified data.gro work?

If anyone wants to carry this on, here is a half way done port of the skin for 800x480:
http://www.mediafire.com/?j85ht32c610vlxn
I don't have a device to test it on, but this should theoretically load on your device. It will look all wrong. That is for sure. But all of the functions and images are in there. The only thing that hasn't been done is fixing the x-y location of all the elements
Here is what needs to happen to finish the skin. I've included three folders. 800_480_final contains the files inside data.zip that still need to be edited. Every single element within these file is correct except their location and size. These are the values used in the 480x320 skin created by Mmarz. What needs to happen is that you need to go line by line and fix the following values:
x=
y=
w=
h=
fontsize=
paddingright=
paddingleft=
align=
iconalign=
iconvalign=
Just so you understand the language m3:x= would be the x location in landscape mode and m4:x= would be the x location in portrait mode. x is measured in pixels from the left side of the screen. y is measured from the top of the screen. w is the width of the element and h is the height in pixels.
In the folder 800_480_orig I included the files from a regular 800_480 igo my way skin. This contains the correct x,y,w,h..etc values for the majority of the elements. Use these as a reference when fixing the values. Some elements won't be in here.
In folder 800_480_myamigo_old I included the files from the original my amigo skin. This contains the correct x,y,w,h..etc values for any elements missing from the above folder. But this is only the landscape version. For portrait values (m4:x=, m4:y=, m4:w=...etc), you'll need to use your best guess as to the correct location and size of the elements.
If anyone decides to finish this, please post it back on here so others can enjoy it.

Not it! I don't have a 800-480 screen, nor the free time.

You don't need rooting but the method described above does not work in general. Someone needs to make that resolution specifically for your phone.

Touch Comm Manager Graphics Needed

Attached is a set of buttons that I am hoping a great artist can convert into a great looking set of IR Beam buttons. I'm like a 1st grader when it comes to free-hand artistical stuff - gimme some crayons!
I'm hoping that they'll follow the same theme as the others
Maybe we'll add a poll for the best set once we get a few entries?
Note that these are copies of the flight mode, but have the proper naming for the IR function.
Ping!
Any takers? I'm hoping someone can draw up a set before 3.9 goes up - which is any day. We can alway revisit the final set later.
Please - someone save me the embarrasment of doing this myself!
Here's my attempt - please, please - someone do a better job

Just follow the image format as they are now - I'm not exactly sure of the details. Paint edits them just fine, but I'm sure any mainstream graphics app can handle them.
I'd suggest following the same image format as the rest of the buttons, and if you really wanted to get crazy, redo the entire dialpad!
Thanks!
I think the shades of gray is different for all buttons. the flight mode gray is different than the beam gray. I suggest attaching the ringer button to use that as a background since the bottom two button gray should be a lot more similar than the flight mode gray.
Here you go matt I hope that's good enough
Here is my try.

so the previous post has the symbol a little too high, so i lowered the symbol a bit. here they are zipped up.
Here you go with better version of Mendevil

Chome Weather 2.0

FYI, CHome Weather 2.0 works on the VOX. Please follow the link to see the original thread in the Excalibur forum.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=396068
And click here to download the files needed for the Vox.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2250095&postcount=43
Hello...just downloaded this version of CHome Weather and it looks amazing...great job. There's only one problem, probably related to the 240x320 cpr file because, like I already read in the excalibur forum, there's an issue in 240x320 where the background looks a little odd and doesn't fit the area like it supposed to. But again amazing job...keep it up
EDIT: I've just used a version of the 240 x 320 cpr file already used in another version of your plugin and it works great now
I was just now testing the other layouts and there are some issues:
- I realized that everytime i change the layout, it doesn't matter the cpr 240x320 file i did put there because when the layout is changed the cpr file is kind of replaced by the one corresponding to the sellected layout.
- In the HTC and Iphone layout, it shows always an icon with a cross below the icon of the current weather, instead of showing the icon corresponding to the weather.
- In regular layout, the gold and silver backgrounds don't work well in 320 x 240.
- In the regular layout, in the 1 and 3 layouts, I can't see the hi and low temperature.
Yeah, you'll have problems with the portrait layouts.
Is it possible to fix the problem with portrait?? That is the last thing, that keeps me from donating.
I am so happy with this program. I worked as Organic M's test subject to get this working. I can't say I notice the problem you guys are talking about in regards to portrait mode.
This is what I see:
have the author, removed the files from the location... I am unable to get those...
Can someone help plzzzzzzz!!!!!!!
Thanks

There are 2 links in the main post at the top of this thread.

The second one is all the files that need to be installed to /windows on your device
Davis,
From your post, it looks like that screen is in ladscape mode. Portrait is taller than wider, yours looks wider than it is taller.
Thanks a lot.. I found the same at the post. I was just eager to get Weather update on my VOX...So got carried away...

Well if you put it that way, you'll definitely NOT get me to fix the portrait layouts. How about.. "here's a small donation and small request... I would really appreciate it if you could work on the portrait layouts(which is a major PITA) so this works properly on my phone".
Well then I Only wanted to know if it is possible to do it. But I can live without it. I can look outside to see the weather. You know I made a lot of stuff for the Vox...but I never received ANY donation!!!
works beatifull. got no issues with any layout (i'm using plain black background). excellent job!
the only question i have is if it is possible to manually edit order of appearance on home screen somehow as i could do it in standard homescreens in _home.xml file?

This is definitely NOT what I wanted to happen here. I worked with Organic M to get this app to work with our phone models and he was nice enough to help us out.
This is far from the thanks that he deserves, since the app is designed for an entirely different model.
Why so serious? can't we all just... get along?

???
As I said I only wanted to know if it is posible nothing more. And I just wanted to clarify that people here are not thankful! I really do apreciate his work. And the work of all the other coders and cookers! I hope you understand my point!
Does this plugin use necessarily the whole width of the screen, or is it possible to customize its size or layout (present conditions, 2-days forecasts, 5-days forecasts...)?
At present I'm using Fizz Weather with Orange plugin on my Wings, in order to show an analoug clock and weather forecasts next to it (see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=89987&d=1212446950); will it be possible to make the same thing with Chome Weather?
So... is anyone still interested in making this work better with the Vox ? Maybe ask some of your ROM cookers to look at the policies in the registry and ask them remove the restricts that don't allow cab files to copy files to the \windows directory ? Then I wouldn't have to make two separate .cab files when I released a new version That, and if anybody wants to help test the portrait layouts, we can make this happen.
Yes it would be great to see the weather plugin fully working on the Vox...that thing about the restrictions I never understood that because after checking myself the registry many times, I saw that the restrictions were disabled and the thing about installing files in the windows folder still remains a problem...

Modified wm6.5 screenlock, much easier to use

the new screenlock for wm6.5 looks much better than the one for wm6.1. and i know that microsoft never meant to imitate iphone. however, the new screenlock is not so easy to use with the slide block sooooo-up-there...
fortunately, i found CHomeVisualEditor.exe, which help me to modify the original screenlock to a much-easier-to-use mode. download the txt file and then rename the file name (just delete ".txt", cause the actual file type is ".cpr"), copy it to "/windows" to cover the original one. the effect pic is shown in the attachment 2.
please be advised if the files don't work, copy them to "/windows/lockscreen" to cover the original ones. then reboot your phone. they shall be working by then.
p.s. i put "silde to unlock" outside the screen (top margin: 640) so you will not see that one the screen. i guess no one need that shown on the screen right...?
note: i updated my rom recently, and found the position of time moved much lower than that of the former one. if the position of time doesn't meet your need, try to open the file as a text format, search for "Layer ID="TimeAppointment" Top". the last number shows the position the time should be present. for your reference, use "-30" for 640x480 and "0" for 480x640.
no one replied. no one need this?
tbh u should have posted this in the Software section...
Looks awesome. Thanx

Swype DIY Themes + Vector Templates

Alright, so we all love swype, and with the developers not wanting to share means you cannot load a theme'd apk file, this seems like the next best route, teach you how to make your own and gives the tools to make it easy!
I am not distributing Swype here, so plz don't ask, this is how to theme your current Swype set up.
Disclaimer: This is my first attempt at themes, and since im just offering my work for freeeee, don't give me crap if I overlook'd something just politely inform me and I'll do what I can. Also I only have my Droid X for testing so its kinda on you if your keyboard is not similar to mine for now. Also, im not even going to attempt to water mark this or put some symbol to show I made it since I'm giving you the files you could just remove it anyway plus they are annoying to look at, so plz just dont take credit for my work.
So first things first, to ensure this post is quick and to the point you will need to already have a few things up and running,
Currently I use keyboard manager so portrait orientation is Swype, and landscape is multi-touch since its too wide to be efficient with swype, therefore; I only created templates for portait swype so far, sorry.
ADB
WinRar(for exploring apk)
Adobe Illustrator version CS 1 and up (for editing templates)
Adobe Photoshop (for resizing keyboard images)
Side Note: Other programs will work, and other methods work, these are just tried and proven so your on your own or at least quite possibly beyond the realm of my help by using different editors.
Step 1:
ADB pull the Swype.apk file from system/app
Step 2:
Back up said Swype.apk file to ensure you can revert to stock
Step 3:
Open apk and extract "assets" folder to an easily accessible location with WinRar
Step 4:
Download 4 Illustrator Templates attatched
Step 5:
Edit templates as you see fit (font, size, color, button color, background color, GO CRAZY!)
Step 6:
From Illustrator export as .png file (make sure to keep the same file names!)
Step 7:
In Photoshop, resize images to same size as the stock ones in the folder /assets/keyboards, (480 x 320 for Droid X but you should check yours to make sure)
Step 8:
Place your newly made and sized .png files into the previously mentioned /assets/keyboards folder overwriting existing. You can make other changes here, I was focusing on the keyboards here because they are the most tedious to change but go ahead, Run Amok. "Amok Amok Amok Amok" yeahh line from the movie "Hocus Pocus" ANYWAY
Step 9:
re inject Assets folder into Swype.apk overwriting old, (i usually delete Assets, then inject to ensure overwrite)
Step 10:
ADB push back to phone and switch input method back to Swype
Step 11:
Show off your newly customized keyboard!
Step 12:
Post your .png files to help the community and show off what you did!
Alternate Lazy Way: Sit around wait for a cool keyboard to be posted and leach, simply inject someones .png files into your Swype.apk
Daves Dark Theme 1
Alright so here is the .png files for my first theme, just to get the ball rolling. Lets see what you got!
HOLY SHYTE I was planning to create AI files for this and Launcher Pro Icons, this will save some time
Any chance you have LP Icons in vector format too?
Dude.
Thanks for providing .AI files, what a great contribution! I was going to take the stock png's and photoshop them. This is much cleaner!
You don't have full-width .AI's laying around do you?
Morkai
sorry I just started making themes last night, so I don't have any Icon files lying around. Although, in the newer versions of Illustrator you can use "live trace" to make vector formats from raster images.
Jeftep
You're asking about the landscape aspect ratio keyboard right? Currently I didn't make it yet if I do landscape it will be for the stock multi-touch keyboard first then maybe id get around to swype. The keys are just too spaced out to be efficient to use with 1 finger.
And yes, thats exactly where I started too, "well lemme just see what I can do with photoshop.... awww screww it Fresh Start in illustrator"
So sorry thats a no to both questions, but come on, I just started.

Ummm.. I have always shared how to theme with whom ever has asked.. plus all mine are simple to load... some swypes are custom to certain themes, and in those cases the dev's aren't going to spend time explaining how to do each part.
Not trying to bash, just stating a point.
As many know i have made quite a few swype themes(check sig), and many custom order for other devices who "technically" arent supposed to have swype.
If anyone needs help modding the tracer, or if you run into the "amp&" issue when playing with any other KB's i will be happy to help.
Good work btw, all the extra people theming makes more stuff avail, never anything wrong with that.
Swype C&D
Alright thats my fault, I meant the developers of Swype, not the XDA community.
http://www.xda-developers.com/announcements/xda-notice-swype/
this is what I was talking about with not really being able to share swype on the forum in an installable format. I was just trying to show a new way we can still all share themes while keeping the forum out of the firing range of C&D letters or worse.
While I'm certainly not claiming this to be a breakthrough in any means as its simply another way we can continue to share themes for this great app. I definitely agree there is a better way to install than this run around...
Have you modified the tracer for version 1.64.40.9380? I found a few forums that showed how to do it, but only in the newer versions and not droid X. Is libSwypecore.so different by Swype version? manufacturer?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=801770
Says to modify 5b410, 5b411, and 5b412 for Blue, Green, Red but it doesn't seem to change the color after I push it back to the phone. I got a newer version, but it was configured for 800x480 not our screen and repeadly threw errors.
Thanks
ahh, agreed. The creators are definitly unfriendly towards devs.
you are correct on the file to edit for the tracer. If you open up an unmodified .so file and search for the string "dda25bff" that is the hex color part. Since its in hex its backwards. The proper color code would be ffb52add. So say you wanted to make the color black = ff000000. You would type it in reverse 000000ff.
Only change that string and you should be good.
Tracer Edit worked like a charm, thanks.

Hi buddies, maybe some know the work that Hexler.net have been doing with the TouchOSC app, to mapp and configure music software to use the ipad for music production and live acts, but the sad of this is that he to "busy" with the iOS and leave the Android a side, so for this reason i wonder if there some way configure the TouchOSC for android to import some layouts from the page or maybe create a soft that works like it??
Thanx for reading, hope some answers.
Seeya!
wow! Really nobody has a clue? Or just doesnt want to try something? Nn
Ok thanx.
So you want to use iPad layouts on the android app?

Yes, or maybe just sync the editor for ipad with the tablet to import the custom layouts, and later we can progeam it on Pure Data for the midi controller, with the tablet.
Cause i think its no fare to have such a great OS and device, and be limited by the iOS.
I wonder if maybe when the Layouts have been instaled in the iOS it saves on some folder like XML, if this is corret maybe we can copied to Android and configure in Pure Data.
What you think buddies???
Any Djs around here interesting in this great app to midi production, dj set an Live acts??
you wont see very many, if any, pro music apps on android. not until they fix the delay. (i believe there is a delay in the sound driver, or something of that nature)
i dont know how to explain in better detail, but thats why you wont see a better version of touchOSC, and hexler basically is ignoring questions til google fixes android.

in fact yes has some delay but we can handle, the thing is that theyre making money with Apple, cause we got the chance to be same as apple. Now im working with some people from other forum and finally got full screen menus, now we are trying to figure out how to set the layouts full screen to.
Can any Dev please help me, im not a dev so for me is hard but im trying. Just need some piece of code an look for something that are refering to a Size layout o modify to get full increen in the layouts. I got the menus fullscreen, just need the layout please! one step closer to full funtionality in xoom tablet please!
here is the link is the code .Smali files Code decoded
Heck, I wish there was a way to just set our own resolution!! The XML file right now is useing a 0 or a 1 to determine if it is being used on a iPad or iPhone/iPod.
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<layout version="9" mode="1" orientation="horizontal">
<tabpage name="MQ==">
</tabpage>
</layout>
This does not make much sense to me when it could have been made to use resolution. For example the Nook Color tablet uses a resolution of 1024x600.
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<layout version="9" resolution="1024x600" orientation="horizontal">
<tabpage name="MQ==">
</tabpage>
</layout>
I am interested in this as I want to use TouchOSC to send serial commands to help control things in a robotics application.
I found this bit of code if it helps at all.
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/content1"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:background="#ff99ccff"
>
</LinearLayout>
i try it with the piece of code you paste but nothing i think that the "problem" is on the Java i mean maybe the dev has a portection or a layer over the GUI Layout. I have been working in group with other user (no dev or prog) and we made a Splash-About screen go full screen and the menus.
But the only left is the Layout buttons, we are guessing the code must have somenthing in the ControlView.smali or in the TabPage.smali (java code).
We still looking forward.
Greetings

Hey bro! I´m with the same problem like you. Soy de Mexico!
Nos ponemos en contactoo
I CANT POST LINKS( I AM NEW)
I am sick of hexlers ignoring andoroid version. I patiently waited for 6 months to release full andorid version.
So here is HOW TO PUT YOUR LAYOUT:
-download this multiupload.com/GXW01G6URJ
-place TOUCHOSC apk here "place-apk-here-for-modding"
-double click Script.bat
-chose 1
-now extract with winrara your TOUCHOSC layout and copy index.xml file
-go to apk_manager_4.9/project/touchosc folder and paste index.xml to assets/Beatmachine.touchosc
-now go to script.bat window and chose 5
basically you need to zip it and sign it again(I think number 5 should do it), havent done this for 6 months.
-I think your signed apk is here "apk_manager_4.9/place-apk-here-for-modding"
And on hexlers forum some guy manage to zoom layout so it take a full screen on tablet devices.
sad so sad
for good and free traktor layout go to this blog androidosc.blogspot.com
too much work!
all you have to do for custom layouts is...
1. make "yourlayout" in touchosc editor.
2. create a new folder name "yourlayout".touchosc on desktop or somewhere else so it doesn't conflict with the original file
3. open the "yourlayout".touchosc that the editor made as a .zip file
4. extract the index.xml file to the folder created in step 2.
5. copy this folder over USB/SD to Android device
6. use a file explorer with root access to then copy the folder to /data/data/net.hexler.touchosc/app_touchosc_layouts/
it will show up in the list of layouts on touchosc for android without hacking/signing APKs and all this...

Yes in fact in in the Hexler forum "workin" (its more like guessing) how to do things work. Some good results but no the one we want. really is sad how hexler takes more care about iOS and updates than Android, they dont see all the people in the android side asking for something or given help to make it better than the iOS version.
...and hacky fullscreen?
Just use an "LCD Density" changer app off the market to temp. change your "resolution". run touchosc. reboot to go back to normal res. when your done.
Thanks for the help there with layouts! Do you guys know how easy it is to set up Serial Commands in that Touch OSC editor?
Tom in AZ...
just get one of these "Seeeduino ADK Main Board" and an RC shield. Its official now in Android 2.3.4 or 3.1 with the Open Accessory Dev. Kit. and make your own app.
...or if you really wanna USE touchOSC you could probably get a WIFI shield and an Arduino and just decode the OSC to whatever with that.
Sorry to bring this post back from the dead...but I just got 3.0 on the hannspad. However, the TouchOSC interface is very small...tried LCD Desinty changer and it kinda works...but its not ideal.
Am I missing something? Is there specific layouts or something Im doing wrong?
Any help would be awesome...its the only reason I actually bought the tablet...plus there isnt really anywhere else talking about it!
Cheers folks
Ya Dancer!

Kudos to you my friend, Worked Perfectly.
Cheers for posting
Ok so, the post come back to life. Yesterday i got the TouchOSC v1.2 update, and finally we got:
Scale to fit screen (optional)
Multitouch Support (diveces that support it)
Wake lock and wifi lock to keep screen and network on
This great mayor to the update are incredible but now we have another problem...
theres no "app_Touchosc_Layouts" folder to "hack" the layouts we made now think this is a great step back, because when we dont have the fullscreen, we can at least make our personal layouts and figure out how to fit the screen. But now just let us with 5 layouts .
Somebody has an idea of what can we do to have our personal layouts again?
Thanks for read.
Inensus!
