There are many threads on editing the build prop after flashing but I want to know how to edit before I upload and flash.
I believe all I have to do is...
- Open the Zip with 7zip or Win zip ect.
- Open the build prop with word pad
- Change the items I wish to edit
- Save File
- Transfer rom to the SD and load with CR
Am I wrong here?
Should work. I used that method to edit my default.xml in CoreDroid to change my device name before flashing.
You can also do it straight from your device using the application from the android market; Absolute System

So you're saying you want to edit it in the ROM itself, first?
What would be the functional advantage of doing this? To have a personalized version of the ROM or something?
Unless I'm misunderstanding you, what happens when the ROM itself is updated by the dev? Any changes you made pre-flash to an obsolete ROM would be irrelevant if the updated ROM required a full wipe, or if you change roms, where a full wipe is recommended.
Just trying to determine your logic.
Essentially I want to name my device "Inspire 4G" not "Desire HD".
That has been driving me nuts ever sense I started changing roms on this phone
I also wanted to try changing the hsupa from 6 to 7 and the hsxpa 2 to 3 not sure if that will make a difference to my phone but was going to give it a whirl.
And as far as updates I always do full wipes /install saves the occasional head ache. so editing it before the install works for me

In that case, you have to edit the default.xml in /system/customize/CID, and it does have to be done before flashing. I have a screenshot of my about phone in CoreDroid 6.8 to prove that which I just said.

Editing build.prop on an installed ROM _WILL NOT_ change the device name on the 'about phone' screen, at least not on a Sense ROM. Guaranteed, but you can try if you want.

As you alluded to, editing build.prop *does* change the About Phone>>Device Name in a GB AOSP ROM. The line is ro.product.model

Minor aside since you brought up AOSP ROMs. Will that work 'on the fly' after the ROM is installed? I only ask because I've found that the default.xml changes have to be made in the zip before flashing, but I know that most of the other changes that I make to the build.prop file take effect after a reboot.
Lmao all good buddy. Gotta make our day enjoyable somehow huh? Lol

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

correct, i ripped apart fresh2.3.3 and he has a boot1.gif in the /system/media/bootanimation folder
on darch and froyo they have a bootanimation.zip in the /system/media folder. my guess is to take all the images in the bootanimation.zip in the part0 and possibly part1 folder stitch them together in photoshop(you can resize here too) make an animated gif, open in gimp and deoptimize then resave as animated gif. name boot1.gif and push to the /system/media/bootanimation folder.
i just adb pushed this to /system/media on zen exp and it works and it's bad ass
I can confirm this works on nfinitefx45 Rom...

I can also confirm this method as working by doing the same using Fresh 2.3.3 (a sense UI based rom also). Happy booting decepticons!
I tried pushing this after I installed the CS6 test 4 with no luck. I still get the custom boot that was originally on it and DD2.7. After I push it, it shows that it was successful and give the size of the file transferred, but when I reboot I get the same one.
i pushed a custom gif using the images in this boot and it was either blank or it was small and different pixels like it was a bad res any ideas how to get it to work im using fresh 2.3.3
awesome guys glad you found an easier fix. for the froyo user i pushed it just fine i'm on cm6 test 4. pm me if you need help.
I'll try to retry it here in a few hours when I get off work. If I am still unsuccessful, I'll send you a PM. It's good to find another Kansan on here.
I figured out my problem, since I had just redone my Hero with the new CS ROM, I forgot to turn on USB debugging. Retried the steps and was successful.
Nice glad you got it going.

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

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

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

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

Sorry for sounding like a fool, but if I installed this ROM, could I then use cwm to restore data for apps and such, as I CBA to reinstall them all!

Restoring system app data I would avoid, but to restore user apps use titanium backup. Its free and great if properly used. Just set your filters to make sure you don't include any system apps on your batch backup. And when you restore the apps, I would batch restore the apps and then restore the app data only for apps where you actually need to restore app data.
And don't tell Scott I recommended backing up and restoring.
To the guy scared of borking, don't worry its a good file.

TB Doesnt like this root method. Clear TB data and SuperSU data. Make sure you update binaries in Super SU then set the default permissions to allows allow. Other than that I have no clue. I get root with every app no problem.

One possible nice addition would be 4in1 power buttons, even if it was hidden somewhere so the wife couldn't accidentally hit it.. The ability to jump to recovery would be nice since it's pissy to do it the hardware "button"/cold way. I know it's stock, and I greatly appreciate it. I have it loaded for my wife, but jumping to recovery from the device without issues, another app, or a tool kit would be nice. Just an idea. Thanks.
Going to check this out, just want something stock and speedy. CM10 was a bit too unstable for me at the moment. Thanks for the ROM!
I wanted to ask how I could go about taking a rom.zip (pulled from an RUU) and turn it into a stock rooted rom. The phone flashing would be rooted, of course
And if possible, for that process, is it generic? As in, would it work for any phone/stock rom? Or only shift?

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Nice . Glad to hear that. As for the reading thing. It is oh so true . But unfortunately most do it later, than sooner.
Hi All,
Please help me to find the APM Mod for my ATT HTC One X running on Clean ROM 6.5 (Based on 3.17 base).
I have searched in the XDA threads but they are not for ATT HOX.
Thanks in Advance!!
Thanks and Regards,
Sathish.
It has to be ported over. I actually want this and notification toggles too. Anyone know how to port them?

Not sure exactly, but there's apps from the Play Store that offer notification toggles. Not the same, but you can use quick boot to boot in recovery and such. There's likely not going to be an available mod for it, because CleanRom ended development for our device.

APM requires smali code, xml files and png images to be added to framework-res.apk and code added and edits to android.policy.jar and toggles require smali code, xml files and png images in the systemui.apk. You will need to decompile them first. It is a quite involved proccess.
Ive always wanted to port them i was always used to having it on other phones. Might be too much for me right now tho lol. Only ever ported something once

If you want it so much, there are other ROMs that have it.

Here is what I did and how I started to learn about these mods.
Google the app beyond compare and download it.
I'm assuming you know how to use apk tool if not there is enough info around that I'm not going to get into explaining that.
Find a Rom that has the mod your looking for. Make sure the Rom are on the same version ie 4.1.1.
Decompile the modded apk and the one from the Rom you want to add to.
Open beyond compare and select a folder compare add the entire decompiled folder for both apks and go through and look at the difference between the two apks. There are different ways you can choose to make the compares I usually choose binary compare to get the most accurate look at the diffs.
Some things related to the mod will be easy to find others will take a little longer.
Make the the edits to your unmodded apk and compile it and test it.
If it fails to compile or doesn't work when installed on phone then you missed something go back and go through it again.
It is a trial and error process but this is how I learned.
It should be noted most of these mods took someone quite a while to actually code from scratch with no reference so using it for your own personal use is fine but if you plan on publicly releasing it do the right thing and make sure you get permission from the original creator before making anything public that you did not make yourself.
Hope this helps.
