Circle battery mod?

Anybody have the circle battery mod?
I'm running Sky Raiders 4.3 and I already have a blue theme installed.
I'm looking for the big blue if possible, circle battery mod with the battery percentage number in the circle. I can't seem to find it. Thanks

Did you try going to the UOT Kitchen? You'll need to upload your framework-res.apk file.

Take the attached zip file and unzip it and then take all the images and drag and drop them into your theme's framework-res.apk. Just open your theme with winrar then goto services/framework and double click on framework-res and then goto the res/drawable-hdpi and drag the images from the attached zip into that dir then when you close that window it will ask you if you want to update the file say yes and then you can reflash and you will have your blue cir battery.

Does UOT kitchen work with Theme Chooser apps now? Last time I used it, it was only for the actually framework files (framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk).

i guess not i read a bunch about just getting the theme chooser.apk and uploading that and it is supposed to add an apk to the zip it gives u to download
1. Go to the Kitchen page
2. Browse through the available mods and choose what you want (don't forget to press Generate preview if there is such a button)
3. Go to the file upload section and upload the required files, or choose the ROM you use from the kitchen's list (most roms in the list are for HTC Desire)
Files you need to upload:
Froyo rom: framework-res.apk
Gingerbread rom: framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk
Gingerbread with sense rom: framework-res.apk, SystemUI.apk and com.htc.resources.apk
Cyanogenmod7 rom: Cyanbread.apk or Androidian.apk or any theme for ThemeChooser (rename as you like it to apear in theme menu)<----thats what im using
NOTE 1: if you’re uploading theme apk then do not upload any other files; you’re just wasting traffic, because the kitchen will ignore additional files
NOTE 2: Font packs and boot animation do not require files to be uploaded. If you choose only those mods then you get a download without a queue.
4. Go to the summary section. All chosen mods must have a green background. If there is a mod in red background it means you didn’t finish it.
Press Submit work to kitchen
5. Remember the UOT file name (your order number).
6. Go to the Pickup page and wait for your file to appear (it can take from 5min to 1hr or more)
7. Download UOT zip into SD card of your phone
8. Reboot into recovery
9. Wipe cache and dalvik-cache (just in case). Do not wipe data / factory reset.
10. Flash UOT zip
11. Reboot phone

So you can actually take a CM7 Theme Chooser theme and use that for UOT Kitchen? Then apply it to any ROM?

No. Theme Chooser themes only work with roms that have themechooser integration. Otherwise its a lot of work to port.

Use the system files like framework-Res.apk and systemui.apk and set file type to optimus, worked perfect for me.

Hey Kwes - I have not tried UOT with New Clip because you mentioned themes may break things. Does that also apply to UOT? I wanted to change the color of all the items on the status bar to the hex ICS color. Should that be OK if I do not change anything else?
Or is there a better way to do that?

As long as you use the systemui and framework-res from the rom it shouldn't break anything. But some sketchy edits I made in framework as work a rounds might not let you edit it with uot but you can always try. I'm gonna update soon if I can just get these lock screens right.

Thanks. I will give it a try tonight or tomorrow. I want to make a set of all gingerbread green status bar icons and a set of all ICS blue status bar icons. If it works I will send them to you and you could add them to New Clip (if you want to) as an option for people that want everything matching, but do not want a complete makeover theme.
I just think it looks nice when the battery, clock, signal, wifi, etc match in color. Fond of ICS blue right now. I think I know how to repack it so anyone can use it. I'll PM you later if I get it done.
Edit: Well...that was a disaster. I just changed the status bar icons and added a different battery. Result was a boot loop twice and then a black screen requiring a battery pull. Restored my back up and will give it another try. Maybe a bad file download?

An all new update is just around the corner. Kwes1020 has some magic he is holding back until its right. Old weapon 3.0 works fine with UOT. I am not a real theme guy. I answer easy questions for noobs and piggyback off the hard work of others, but always give credit and thanks to the real guys. If the update does not happen as expected, I will take another stab at it.
I love learning new things and android has become an addiction. If you want to try, read up on topic. Tons of good info out there. UOT is simple to use. The trick is making the zip you create compatable with every one else. There is a mini tutorial in the moonman thread.

My First Time
So I sat for over an hour making my first OUT kitchen Theme if that is what you call it, I am waiting for it to cook as you say.... hope all goes well when I flash it to my stock Gingerbread rom......

Softkey icons

I know that the softkeys can be changed to display words instead of the icons. I have found some images that have them as such but can't seem to get to work when using the custom framework maker. Am I missing something or does anyone have text image files that will work.

then try and drag that new eddited apk into framework maker. to make a package to flash.
not sure if tb101s themer has to be editted for ec09 but ive been having trouble with 5.5 and ec09

won't that create a 7zip file? that was the only problem i had with the themer, everything worked to remove the ticker history and weather. no fc's..yet.

Well the softkeys have to be alighned. Open existing PNGs in paint or whatever and alighn new ones and save. Then run themer.

thank you, checked the sizeds and they were different. now stuck at the decomling stage in themer.

Your making it way more difficult than it should be lol.
Look for older soft keys posts in our theme section.
There are easier ways in there. No decompile needed for softkey.

[Q] ICS battery mod, how can I do this?

Do you want to MAKE one from scratch or just install one? Which ROM are you running?

Id love to know how to do this as well. For me Id like to just modify an existing customized Rom files.
I actually tried this after hours of searching. And most seem to only talk abou modifying the SystemUI.apk by adding the 204 PNGs for the battery mode (for 1% accuracy) and also add the two modified battery XMLs. I recompiled the SystemUI.apk, injected it on the phone, set the right permissions and rebooted. I saw the battery icon change. But then 10mins later it was showing the stock battery icon again, then 10mins later I noticed it was showing the modified one again.
Im wondering why do folks mention only needing to change the SystemUI.apk when if you open the Framework-res.apk you will also see the same Battery PNGs and also see the same battery XMLs (but cannot read those in clear text).
Dont we have to modify both the Framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk? I think the answer is yes since the UOT Kitchen makes you upload both and sends you back both modified.
Im not too familiar with how to do the framework-res.apk. Btw Im using MHX's Superlite 5.0 ROM which I believe he modified one of those files to remove the carrier text from the status bar.
Dixit

I used UOT Kitchen to change mine. All you do is pick the battery icon you want then upload your systemui.apk and framework-res.apk and wait for it to make it then download it to your sdcard. Then flash it in CWM.

Yea that worked fine when I was on Gingerbread even on NexusMod ROM. Thats what I did before.
Now on ICS (Superlite 5.1 ROM), I did the same thing, took the systemui.apk and framework-res.apk from superlite's rom file, uploaded them to UOT and did the battery mod, everytime it builds it, I get a SHTF error.
So then I tried to upload the stock leaked ICS systemui.apk and framework-res.apk (not modified by any ROM), and still same issue, get a SHTF error.
It dont seem to like the ICS based files Im giving it.

Yeap saw that, Thanks again. Id love to see what you did in this that maybe I didnt do right in my own attempt. I added the 204 PNGs and then added these premade stat battery xml files I saw in the Galaxy S2 forum. I looked at yours (the stat battery xmls) but couldnt see them in clear text, they seem to be compiled so cant truly see whats in it.

Thanks again. This will help me in seeing where I went wrong on my initial attempt.

Took a look finally. My stat_sys_battery.xml and stat_sys_battery_charge.xml are identical to the ones you had in your mod. So that was done right. Any other files you modified (XML wise)?
Im still curious on why I see the same two XMLs in the Framework-res.apk and the same battery icons but modifications are not needed there. Almost seems like both are needed to be done.

I didn't mod anything besides systemui. Didn't even touch any other file. I only added the icons and edited the 2 xml's.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA

Good to know, I wonder if maybe the proper method is to also replicate these same changes in the framework-res.apk since I did a test and noticed UOT Kitchen modifies both and I see the same two XMLs appear identically betweenthe SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk. As as well as the same icon set in both.
Dixit

From what I understand it doesn't work with the kitchen for ics
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA

Right I got a feeling it dont work with ICS (the UOT Kitchen). But like I said on GB it modified both framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk and basically put the same changes in both. So there must be a reason it does that. That might be the reason why for brief moments I saw the standard battery icon and then sometimes the circle mod battery I put in there.

Or just paste the file inside this zip View attachment classes.rar to systemUI.apk and do the proper edits to status_bar.xml and the statusbar_background.9.png and statusbar_background.png afterwards.

You can also use the UOT Kitchen.

Yes. Use the .dex file for the alpha level and just change the statusbar_background.png to the desired transparency level and thats it . Just remember to add @color/transparent to the date background, otherwise it will show when you expand the statusbar and add the proper change from #ff000000 to @drawable/statusbar_background.
