HTC Sense 3.0 Lock Screen!

HTC Sense 3.0 Lock-screen on any ROM.
Tested and working on Gingerbread.
Cheers to this guy.
​
Install Instructions:
Download Sideload Wonder Machine (See bottom of post)
Connect phone to PC (Charge Only with debug on)
Download the .apk here.
Choose the .apk in SWM
Click "Update Existing Application"
Click Install.
Done!

Works on RCMix 5.9.7 after reboot.

i'm getting an error in SWM:
INSTALL_PARSE_FAILED_INCONSISTENT_CERTIFICATES
edit: nvm i just deleted htclockscreen.apk in system/app and then installed using swm (did not check upgrade existing app) and then reboot and it works great! pretty cool.

Can this be done with root explorer?

Yes. delete the htclockscreen.apk with RE then just use the XDA app and download, then install.

Do you loose the music controls on the lock screen?

You do not. The lockscreen itself does feel a little choppy to me.

I'm getting a "Device not found" error. When I try and delete it through RE, it won't change the permissions. It says the system file is read-only. I have tried mounting the R/W, but it doesn't change when i tap it. I dunno
EDIT: Deleted the old lockscreen with TB, and installed the apk. Like above poster, it seems laggy at times. It's not as smooth as I've seen in some other videos, but definitely cool enough to use. Thanks

Is it just the simple lock screen or can you select between the different types, ie weather??

Got it to work. If you use RE, go to system/app, delete HtcLockScreen.apk (backup first), then place the new HtcLockScreen.apk and then install it from this location. Just placing the apk file or installing from other location didn't help.
Reboot and you should see the screen.

I am liking this more and more lol. I find myself pulling the ring, just because. I only wish we could get the options to change the lockscreen, ie weather, and whatnot.

Can someone post the original lockscreen?

I was able to get it to work. Using root explorer make the system/app directory writable, delete the htclockscreen.apk. I rebooted, then took the downloaded new lockscreen and moved it to the system/app folder and then installed it from there. Rebooted again and had the new lockscreen.

[APP] Google Talk from 2.3.4 extracted: NOT WORKING, Help Needed!

Hi everyone,
I downloaded the extracted .apk from latest Google Android release 2.3.4
The .apk is atached below.
I have had no success in installing the app on my 2.3.3 ROM on my Samsung Galaxy S. I tried pushing it to /system/app via Root Explorer, but once you try to install package it just doesn't install by saying "Aplication not installed".
Im no dev or whatsoever,so I would encourage anyone who could help to make it work on 2.3.3, Google stated in Google Mobile Blog that Google Talk with Video Chat will be for 2.3+ devices, so it "should" work on 2.3.3.
Any help is appreciated! Share your thoughts!

Try pushing it into system/app and then change permissions. Reboot and post result.

Attach the .odex file here as well. However, can you link me to the place you took the file from? I might need the entire framework to deodex it

Link or get files below.

I doubt that it will work until you upgrade the OS version to 2.3.4, it might be integrated with os changes.

That was my first thought too, but after downloading the entire update it looks like that might not be the case. There aren't a ton of changes in there, and only two updated system apps. One of which is gtalk, the other is an nfc app(for supported devices obviously). I haven't looked through anything else yet(I'm slacking off enough at work as it is), but it would appear the changes are minimal.
Edit: found a new libtalk_ini.so file in /system/lib/
That may help? Anybody have time to try?

I really wish I knew how to do this stuff. I would love to give it a try but I'm so lost! Time to do some reading! LOL

The manifest for this apk says the target and minimum sdk version is 10, which is 2.3.3....so there's a good chance that after some deodexing and supporting files this will work no problemo

That's the key. It should work on 2.3+ as stated by Google, so I think i'ts up to deodexing and adding the proper files. Sure someone experienced can do it

Generally, yes.

I got it to run, but I can't tell how to start a video chat. I pushed the apk, and odex file to the system/app directory and the jnk.so file to the system lib directory. Ran Talk and it opened fine...
HTC Hero with Cyanogen 7.0.2

Btw, its very possibly its simply running the standard install of Talk.apk instead of Talk2.apk... I'll try removing the Talk.apk...
-- Confirmed. I removed the Talk.apk from the system/app/ folder... lost my Talk icon in the launcher. Rebooting; maybe it will showup after reboot.
-- Ok, now I'm not completely convinced that you can get rid of Talk.apk when you push Talk2.apk. They both may have to be there.

We already extracted it of there. Works on Samsung no problems, just need to spoof the build.prop device name. Not too tough.

Awesome. Let us know if you get it to stream video .

I can't seem to get my system to mount R/W with ES File Explorer, so I can't edit the build.prop.
Furthermore, I have to manually change the "home" settings in ES to the /system folder in order to even navigate to it, then I can't even see the file even though all files are supposed to be shown (through settings) so I have to search for it.
Any ideas on what I might be doing wrong?
EDIT: Noticed that when it is mounted as R/W, build.prop is not listed at all, but it is when it isn't mounted as R/W.

[Q] Mobile Hotspot file name?

Does any one know the apk file name for the mobile hotspot app? The flippin app is always loaded and I do not use it.
I'm running GB 2.3.6.
Thanks in advance.

Its built into the framework so you can't uninstall it. Sorry.

Just found that out. I was hoping there was at least one file some where that would disable it if it was renamed. That would probably make some FCs as a side affect.
Thanks for the info.

[APP] UPDATED! AOSP MMS app w/emoji + quick emoji button

big noob here! first, i take no credit for making this app i just figured out how to make it work with our phones.
MUST BE ROOTED!
-first make a backup of the stock messaging app. (i just renamed it and added ".bak" after .apk
-use root explorer and push the Message+CRC_1.apk to system/app
-change permissions to rw-r-r
-change ownership to root:root
-reboot!
-after reboot go into apps manager and clear data. thats it!
if it works give this noob some thanks!

what exactly is going on with it? is it force closing? not able to send anything? i know when i didnt clear the data it would just keep force closing on me.
i just attached another one of the files. try renaming this one to Message+CRC_1 and following the directions again. maybe a cache wipe?
the file in the first post was pulled straight from my system/apps folder and is working great on my side. maybe this one will work for you.
EDIT: the name of the apk implies that you are replacing the stock sense messaging app. so if the name of your messaging app differs, try renaming the file to that of your stock messaging app.

So it worked for you? Awesome!

Running on stock 1.85 rooted. Working splendidly.
Thanks!

i updated the file in the first post to an aokp mms app. its the one with the quick emoji button and so far everything works on my side. let me know if everything works for you guys!
again, i take no credit with making the app. i simply figured out how to get it on our phones. your thanks is appreciated!

It works but I can't send pics :-(

Awesome it works well. The quick button doesn't work with themes, but that's fine its worth having it unthemed for the time being. Thanks a lot! Much more convenient than having to click the settings button.

really? are you using the one in the first post? ive been using it and have no issues at all. earlier ones i was messing with would let me attach the photo but when i would go to send it would just disappear. I havent had that happen with this one. maybe try and wipe the dalvik cache?

Any word if this works with Samsung Galaxy S III? I have tried several apps, and while I can get all of them to work initially, they all break after just a few txts. Also, how do you clear data in apps manager? 4.0.4 doesn't seem to have that option, on my Verizon variant anyway.

Works great for me on CleanRom 4.1 Dev Edition. Followed instructions exactly as posted. Emoji and MMS both work flawlessly. I had been waiting to get this working, but never thought about checking this forum.
Thanks NyConex!

If you are using a ROM that is ODEX'd you need to rename the messaging odex file as well if delete it. Most sense ROMs right now are so double check. I've used this on every ROM I've flashed and it works flawlessly.
