I am absolutely new to ROM cooking stuff, I searched the Q & A section but did not find any thread related to the topics I was interested to know:
1. I want to incorporate certain registry tweaks in my ROM, which is somehow getting over written (to be exact I want to turn off all plugins except Home Screen plus plus clock ui and quick launcher). I have exported the registry settings and tried to incorporate in the ROM, but somehow they are getting over written. I want to know is there any way I can make a particular package (in this case my tweaks) get compiled into the ROM last, so that whatever I define there don't get over written.
2. I have found some great freeware like the finger friendly keyboard in this forum, when I try to integrate them into my ROM using Package Creator 5.4, it gives error saying duplicate files. however upon viewing the cab, I saw that the file names may be same, but they are placed in different folders , what is the way to do it.
Can some one help me out?
BTW I do not use any kitchen and I am talking about building for my Gene.
Thanks for the help.
No one wants to share his/her knowledge? Wow
While working on a ROM (for the hero), I have recently tried to do some theming by small changes (i.e. color changes) to the drawables in the framework-res.apk.
It appears the both for me, and the fellow that is helping me (floomat), these 9-patch files are giving a headache. We prefer editing them in some normal app (i.e. photoshop) but this seems to mess up the 9-patch "code".
I have written a very small program to apply the changes to a 9-patch image without disturbing the 9-patch itself. Note that this program is mainly meant as a "proof of concept" and hopefully one of the apk managing tools will pick up the ball and integrate it. In the meantime it might be useful even as it is (with some scripting around it most likely). Or it might be just a way to prove I am fool and there is simpler way to get around this I am not familiar with
"Program" and source: http://www.sendspace.com/file/sw4atc
(its really too small and simple to be called a program)
Usage:
Code:
java copy9patch original.9.png changed.png
Will copy the changes made to the changed.png over to the original.9.png but keep the 9-patch data of the original.9.png.
Its code (also included) and the way it works is very simple: It takes the size of the original image (i.e. 19x27), without the 1 pixel border with the 9-patch codes - so in our example it will be 17x25. Now it just copied the center 17x25 pixels from the changed.png over the original's center pixels. It has some very basic boundary conditions if the image sizes do not match but this could probably be handled better, possibly just by issuing an error in these cases.
If you want to use my code, change it, do whatever you like with it please do so and I'll be glad to checkout your result!
NOTE: I feel a bit uncomfortable posting this in the "G1 development" section but I see both apktool and apk manager are here....

Huh. I've been wondering if this was possible. I haven't tried this yet but if it works, nicely done! I think that this would be a huge improvement and addition to the themeporter programs that are out there. There is a high demand for this in that area and in the area of HDPI>MDPI/MDPI>HDPI conversion. I'm certainly bookmarking this!
Awesome, just checked out ur source, so simple but effective
Anyway wanted to ask if ur ok with me incorporating it into theme-porter ? Link
Wht im thinking is perhaps when "Hdpi to mdpi" is on, it would resize the .9.pngs by 66%, after which it would transfer the .9 data using this program so (9-patch) code is preserved.
Let me know. Thnx
FYI : Just gave it a whirl, works perfectly.

Maybe my original post wasn't blunt enough, my code is just "proof of concept" because I am bit lazy in this department (themeing tools) - I'd rather spend my time compiling kernels (go figure ).
So my main goal for this post is for developers of apk managing tools and etc. to pick up the ball and go forward with this
And to be even clearer:
If you want to use my code, change it, do whatever you like with it please do so and I'll be glad to checkout your result!
(am also adding this to the main post)
Regarding your actual resizing idea, you might want to resize it with the 9-patch "codes" (in the 1-pixel border) because you want the codes from your original HDMI files just resized. This should work, just be careful with resizing algorithms which average pixels and such. If I understand correctly the edge pixels should be either white or black (defining stretchable and context areas). Need to play around with this until it works well.
Let me know if I can be of any further assistance.

Hmm k i'll spend more time with it, perhaps the resizing program im using causes mishaps. Currently when i resize it completely messes stuff up even though the resolution corresponds to a mdpi device.
I'll do the good ol' trial/error n let u know. Thanks for the (proof of concept)
Edit :
Ok so upon using ur code for transferring images of diff sizes u can obviously tell whts up
So one improvement im thinking off, is if the images differ in size, it could draw the border and eliminate anything outside it. Ugh gotta brush up on my java though :S
bump
10 del al char har

I tested it out and it works great! Thanks!
I really hope someone takes this idea and runs with it! If I knew how to code, I would certainly look into this. Maybe I can get one of the Vibrant Devs to look at this....

Can U just tell how to use this code for bulk images?????

Click to collapse
Hmm, haven't used this for a very long time and don't really remember whats going on here.
Still attached is the version which I have on my HD, and it does support bulk images if all the images are in a folder.
If I remember correctly (mostly going by the help that is displayed by running the program without argument):
Code:
fixResPngs drawable-mdpi drawable-mdpi.org
Will go over all drawable-mdpi/*.png files (possibly also sub dirs?! I really have no idea, sorry), and "fix" each such file. If I am not mistaken it needs a "reference" file only for 9 patch files which are identified by their ".9.png" suffix (regular pngs I think are just rewritten without any change which I found improves compatibility). In case of a 9 patch file, the original file with exactly the same name should be found under the directory given in the second argument. For example: If drawable-mdpi/aaa.9.png is processed the 9-patch data will be copied from drawable-mdpi.org/aaa.9.png.
Obviously it also still works on single files. It does *not* work on lists of files or lists of directories.
If anyone is interested in the code, I am sure I have it somewhere (I hope)....

Gr8 work...u made themin a kid's job
Sent from my GT-S5670 using XDA Premium App
???
does the original still work cause im on windows 7 64 bit and i was able to copy the changes to original but not it makes no changes at all, so the original file doesnt get the changes...
please help!!
This is a little project i've been working on and i thought it was ready enough to be released into the wild. Below is the readme file. I think it covers everything for now. Before posting please read the first 3 posts - especially post 3 - if it is obvious that you haven't done this i will not respond with any form of help and i don't not expect any of the users to do so either.
----------
Included with this zip file are several .cab, .reg and .xml files that will automatically configure your NRGZ28 energy rom when XDA_UC runs upon first boot after flashing.
Included are the following configuration files
activesync.xml
This will configure your MS Exchange settings. Editing with your personal settings is required. Look for the username, server, domain and password tags at the start of the file
aGPS.reg
Enables aGPS
BackLight.reg:
Sets backlight to auto. There are some other settings included for dim and light off times when on battery and AC power aswell
bt_ident.reg
Sets the Bluetooth Identity. Edit the deviceid line to suit
copy.mscr
Copies files from the copy2root folder to the matching location in device storage. A My Documents folder with My Ringtones and My Wallpapers sub folders have been created already. Place you ringtones and wallpapers in these folders. There is also an application data folder which contains a coreplayer config.xml and a program files folder which contains a myPlayer options.ini. Feel free to create more. Thanks to nrfitchett4 for providing this script.
Del.mscr
This file will remove all unwanted ringtones, wallpapers and any other files you decided to add. Edit as you need to. N.B any readonly files will need attributes changed before they can be deleted.
DisableSenseVsync.cab
Disables Vsync in sense increasing the framerate thus making it faster
HD2MemTweaks.cab
Increase's glyphcache size past the bsb tweaks and advanced config defaults, incrases filesystem cache size and a few other bits. This cab file is optional. Delete it if you don't want it. Thanks go out to g.lewarne for documenting the tweaks
HTCAlbumIgnore.reg
Stops the sense music player playing ringtone files from \My Documents\My Ringtones\ and \storage card\ringtones. Copy the examples
if you want to add to it.
M3PH HTC Location Service Enable.cab
Enables HTC location Service and automatically excepts the TOS
ident.reg
Changes the phones identity at first boot. If NRGZ28 won't make it sensible i'll make it so we can customise it . Editing required. this one is pretty obvious
Palringo.reg
Sets up palringo, sorta, change [email protected] to your user name and it should show up at sign in. All you need to do is enter your password
QuickGPS.reg
Enables and configures QuickGPS with the defaults
Ringtones.reg
Configures the ringtone, sms tone and email tone. Needs some editing but you only need to change the file name for each entry, not the
path. The Ringtone2 entry allows for second ringtone to be added to the list of usable ones so you change them with too much fuss.
Also enables flashing light on sms reception for 5 minutes.
wifi_setup.xml
wifi settings. Edit required. This link should help you set it up (see post 3 for details on how to edit)
M3PH Enable Time Auto Update.cab
Enables NTP
Volume.Reg
Sets the volume levels. You can use this one or export your own from HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Volume
Windows live.reg
Pretty much configures windows live. You do still need to enter your password and you will also need to do atleast one manual sync before Sense will create the mailbox on the email tab but otherwise it works
Opera User Agent String folder
See the readme.txt in that folder
Sense Folder
If you put your wallpaper in this folder it will be installed as the sense default. Just rename it to sense_wallpaper.png.
Start Menu folder
Copy Start Menu shortcuts here

Change Log
Change Log:
1.1.1 Final
Removed Keyboard sensitivity tweaks
Removed opera memory tweaks
Added more palringo settings
Added Quick shutdown settings
1.1 Final
Updated volume.reg to default to seperate system and ring volume controls.
Removed all tweaks now included in Energy roms dated nov30 and newer. I will leave v1.0 posted for a while so people that like to install older versions still get the benefit
1.0 Final
Added Windows_live_settings.reg. You will need to edit it as prescribed on page 16 but it will work.
Added Improved GPS settings.cab. This is untested by me but i trust scabes24 enough to know he's not going to pass on unreliable tweaks
Improved M3PH Location Service enable.cab: Added an extra registry setting that should trigger Manila to showing it's on. This is doubtful but even if it doesn't the file does work
Added alarm_settings.reg: This is only an example file. You will need to export your own settings but this should be a reasonable starting point
Removed readme.txt: It was a habit a picked up from Linux development practices and was pointless for this project
Removed time.reg permanently because there is nothing changed in the registry when it is enabled.
--- Pre Final releases
Tips and Tricks
What follows are some tips and tricks i have found that i'm not going to include for whatever reason but thought some people might find handy or notes on what settings do what and their options.
Q. Can i delete file xyz using xda_uc because i like to have as much space as possible?
Yes you can. i found this link. All you need to do is create a file in the xda_uc folder with the extension .mscr which contains the following:
Code:
delete \test.txt, TRUE
or
Code:
deltree \test, TRUE
Obviously change test to the file or directory you want to delete. For more details check out the provided link above.
Q. The default wifi.xml doesn't match my configuration and i can't find a resource that tells me what are valid values for the options?
A. See this link and this one. As a note if you use WPA2 you need to use <parm name="Authentication" value="6" /> and WPA2-PSK is 7
Q. The exchange settings in activesync.xml aren't how i like them. Can i change them?
A. Sure can! Here's a link to the documentation
Q. I use a [enter service name here] and i want to create an xml file to configure it when i update my rom. Can i do this?
A. Thanks to microsoft developing WAP provisioning to an incredibly encompassing level you can do almost anything. See this link
Q. I want to make a cab file out of all my changes. How do i this?
A. There are many ways but i think this is the best one i've found because it doesn't involve any third party software and is really simple. All you need is the windows mobile sdk, which can be found here. You may also need visual studio but i'm not sure
Making either is very simple. You just pass a normal XML file to makecab and give it the name of the output file you want. The one trick is that the XML file must be named _setup.xml. If you call it something else, makecab will succeed, the CAB or CPF file will be generated fine, and then it will fail with a cryptic error when you try to use it. Beware, the documentation doesn't make this very clear.
The syntax for making a CAB file is:
Code:
makecab _setup.xml config.cab

Q. Wow you really do know a lot about this sort of stuff. How can i learn?
A. Well i don't know that much at all really, i just learn fast. Most of the stuff you see here was obtained from or via this MSDN article: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc500581.aspx
Q. Is there a way to boost the performance of Opera in terms of memory/speed?
A. Yes, this cab will force Sense to unload when launching Opera, allowing for better performance while browsing. (When exiting Opera, Sense will then reload) (thanks to Scabes24 for this one)
Code:
[URL="http://www.megaupload.com/?d=O5O1RE97"]Enable Opera Max Memory Tweak.cab[/URL]
Q. I've installed the Opera tweak and everything is working fine, but the page loading seems very slow. Is there a way to improve this?
A. Yes you can, the following registry tweak will enable almost instantaneous web page loading in the web browser. It apparently enables wireless N mode but seems to work with cellular data too. Go to:
HKLM/Comm/BCMSDDHD1/Parms
11nModeDisable = Change from 1 to 0 (thanks to Scabes24 for this one aswell)
Q. My wifi hotspot uses EAP certification and i can't use it because the phone gives me a certificate verification failure error. What can i do?
This was posted in the energy rom thread
NRG, after weeks of not being able to connect to my work wireless network because I was getting a "certificate is from an unknown authority" error, I finally got it working. Can you add this key to your ROMs?
[\HKLM\Comm\EAP\Extension\25\]
"ValidateServerCert"=dword:00000000
This is where I found the answer:

The FAQ
Q. Will you include xyz tweak for me?
A. Only if it's a common one or one that i haven't thought of
Q. I use xyz program and i want to have the config file included in your great collection. What do ya' say?
A. See above but you could always spend 10 minutes tracking it down and then creating a folder in copy2root for it
Q. Why is the bluetooth identity the only tweak for BT you include?
A. Because everyones setup and hardware is far too different for it to be worth it. Also, Although you can export the pairings importing them may not be possible due to the way the bluetooth security protocols work.
(More To Come)
Happy to try this, thank you for cobbling everything together.
wow
this would be so handy, i hate spending time making your phone how you like it. I don't flash as often because i get too comfortable with the current configuration.
thanx M3PH
btw: without NRGZ28 i would have sold my HD2 7 months ago

No worries. I did it because i was getting annoyed with spending ages setting everything up and even more annoyed with people not reading the energy rom FAQ properly (i'm guilty of that too). I used the pre-release version last night after flashing the latest energy rom and it saved me in the region of an hour to an hour and a half. It's not perfect by a long way. Things like the sms led notification is enabled and some people may not like that but is is easily reverted with bsb tweaks.
My plans for the next version is to have all the reg files converted in to cab files for they can be removed and i'll tidy up the readme a bit.
One thing i would like help with though is the FAQ. Can the first few people take notes of any problems or questions they have and things or that nature.
Thanks everybody
Thank you, I'll try it out with the new Energy release. I'd be happy with the reg files to import it doesn't even need to be a cab!
Thanks!

Cab files are better because they can be removed and Reg files can't. So if one of these files causes a problem your stuck and that's why it's labeled as alpha software. Also labelling it as that will scare off the less experienced users from trying it and doing themselves a mischief.
V0.2 will be all cab files as far as possible but don't expect a release until 0.1 has had a thorough real world testing.
oh. it is better ,if i find this post eight hour ago.
it drives me nuts ,everytime i get into a new nrg rom.
thank you very much.
Great idea man, thank you so much for this!
Thanks a lot for this! It will definitely save me a lot of time after a rom update. I just have to hope I've set them up correctly and dont break something
Hello
This project is a very good project, I hope is work well
Is it compatible with other language ?
Ex : "Start Menu" folder in WWE Rom is "Menu Démarrer" In FR
Good luck.

no sorry as it stands it's wwe only. If you want to convert it to french and send it over to me i will post it.
yeoldgreat, if you would like to pm me your changes i will look them over.
Overall i'm really pleased with the response so far but i really do need everyones help with composing the faq because for me this works fine (apart from the unteseted bits because i haven't used them yet) so can all of you please, please, please make some notes on your progress and keep posting those questions

My temptation would be to assume that the FAQ is written for me if I can install and get it working anyone can. For instance in the wifi detailing where the various parm's can be found would make it much easier to install. Very happy to install on what you have and pass back any questions assumptions.
As I frequently flash(ROM's only) I can help with refining the documentation.

Sweet, thanks. That is exactly the sort of thing i'm looking for, because it's been over a year since i did any kind of manual writting i'm pretty rusty. It also doesn't i developed most of the parts in just over 24 hours working on my phone and not my pc everything is a bit scattered in my mind. That's the reason why the readme looks the way it does. It all came out in a bit of a splurge.
The wifi script is one of my older scripts and it took 3 attempts to get right and now i can't for the life of me find the resource on ms technet that i used.
I'll probably have a sitdown over the weekend and have a rerun through the readme and make it a bit more detailed. If i can make it as easy to install as possible then the faq won't be such an important thing
How many people want me to include a coreplayer config.xml in the next version? i've got one that works perfectly with myplayer and turbo3d.
Nice Work
I used a number of these to flash the latest Energy Rom and it worked out great. Very smooth! It will be interesting to see what is added on in the future. Thank you for putting the time in and starting a new thread.

I am going to flash the new Energy ROM either tonight or tomorrow and so will chuck this in with it.
I wont use several of them as I dont use those aspects, but those I do will return with feedback.
I have been frustrated with this as well.... fingers crossed.
Hi,
I have been trying to follow the many posts with regards to theming the Xoom. I was hoping to get some feedback on the best practices.
Changing Images:
Based upon what I see in notes it looks as if the updated apktool works for decompiling. I have it working on my MAC with no problems. Thus, I can change images by dropping them in the zip.
Changing Settings:
If we can change settings in XML files then I assume we can recompile now. What is the best practice for doing this?
Thanks
I've an apk to be tested using Robotium. In the application I'm going to test, there is a custom view(Window) on which there are some text and numeric parameters drawn using ownerDrawn and Paint. The custom view is a child of the relative layout. Since I'm not able to get the resource id of the parameters drawn on the custom view,I'm finding it hard to test the existance of parameters and read the value of the parameter on that view. Please help me out with a solution on how would I do that.
The Custom View is similar to the one attached here.
Please suggest me if there is any other way to achieve this.
Thanks
