[Q] 2G, 3G, and 4G... - T-Mobile LG G2x

Is there anyway the G2x could have all three icons, 2G, 3G, and 4G? Just curious.

Yea it already dose

Yeah, simply by changing out the png files. You could make the E for edge look like a pile of poop if you were inclined to do so.

Where are the png files located at so I can do that?

It's in the SystemUI.apk under \res\drawable-hdpi
Files are named stat_sys_data_fully_xxx_yy or stat_sys_data_connected_yy
Where xxx is either connected, in, inandout, etc etc
and yy is e, h, 1x, 3g, 4g, etc etc.
You do not have to decompile and recompile to edit the png files, just use winzip to pull the folder out and put your changes back in. You can then either put this in a rom and flash it, adb push it the /system/app (Which will cause an endless FC requiring reboot), or just use the VillainTheme system (Seek and ye shall find).

XOOM thinks its an HTC Vision

I don't know what happened, but my Xoom "sees" itself as a Vision. When I plunge it into my computer its the same story. If anyone knows how to fix this I would greatly appreciate it.

sounds like you modified your build.prop? Open your build.prop file in a text editor, and see what the device name there is. I'll betcha it says HTC vision, if so you will need to modify it back to stock settings to make your xoom identify as a xoom

[REQUEST] 4G icon to replace CM7 "H" Icon

I'd like to request a 4G icon to replace the H icon in CM7. I've seen it for the Mytouch 4G but the theme won't flash.
Any help on this would be greatly appriciated.
Why? it's not 4g anyways.it's "enhanced 3g". if you want 4g, switch carriers.

No carrier has true 4G. Hspa+ is working just as good as wimax, no better, and lte hasn't proven to be any faster.
All carriers are lying about 4G.

To the op : I'm not sure completely how to do it but I think u can just download a rom open up the framework and swap the icons

I'm not 100% on this, but I'm pretty sure if you make it so it uses 4G instead of H it'll display 4G when you are connected to 3G. It's just the way CM7 works since they are HSPA and HSPA+. My theme has separate 3g, H and 4G icons, but the phone always uses H no matter if I'm connected to 3G or HSPA+ (At least I can't remember ever seeing a 3G icon). But if you want to, the png files are in the SystemUI.apk under /res/drawable-hdpi/, and you can rename and drag & drop the png files no problem. No resigning or anything required since it's a system app.

Yea 4G and 3G are the same on Tmobile. That's why on stock you go from 2G to 4G. We don't even have 4G in my area even though it says its connected to 4G.
Kinda silly if you ask me but for this to work, you would basically replace the "H" icon with a "4G" icon.
Anyone happen to have the images handy? or do I need to go digging??

ok icons here in form of flashable zip
can i change on eaglesblood
okay so i have eaglesblood 2.7 (based off of cyanogen mod) and i have the 4g sign. i want to change it to the H so when i apply themes it doesnt mess up the status bar. i tried using the OUTkitchen and flashed it. still has the white and green 4g icon. i have used ninja morph and changed the icons myself and still they end up as the 4g. i want to know if there is anyway i can change it, or make cyanogen think im running h or 3g. because the h icon is in the system framework and in the system UI.apk

Might want to look in a more recent thread. The png you want is located in the SystemUI.apk We talked about changing it to the 4g icon in this thread, so you can just reverse the process.

Ninjamorph can't handle this as it needs decompiling & recompiling with apk tool, no?
Correct. If you (meaning anybody reading this) would like it removed or have a custom string in place of it, attach your SystemUI to a post for myself or another to quickly do it for you.

my Father in Law has a MyTouch from T-Mobile and he was wanting to transfer all his pictures from his internal SD card to his external SD. I couldn't find the folder (using ES Explorer) to copy them.. can someone let me know where the internal pictures from the camera are stored?
Thank you!

They go into the DCIM folder and depending on the settings of the camera at the time of the photo, one of the subfolders of DCIM. They aren't stored in other locations unless specified by a third party camera app.

this forum is for the mytouch 4g slide

Like rorty said they should all be in DCIM or in sub folders inside DCIM. I know you can hide things on your sdcard from the gallery by adding a . In front of the name. So if I want to hide LinuxImages from gallery I would name it .LinuxImages. so see if he has hidden folders with the pictures.

What app are you using? Stock gallery app - if so what android version? (gingerbread, ics...later? (might be helpful since we don't have that device...)
Something to consider - and may be what is the case - they could be pictures no longer there.
A thumbnail of each picture is saved into a thumbnails database - once there it kinda becomes independent of the picture. The gallery is actually displaying whatever is in the thumbnails database, and could be showing pictures long gone. It does happen at times.
I like to use QuickPic as my gallery app (it's awesome!) and it stores the thumbnail database in /sdcard/Android/data/com.alensw.PicFolder
See if you can track down the thumbnail database for your gallery app and (back it up first!!!!!!!!!) delete it.
Next time you open the gallery app it should generate a new, current thumbnail database showing you more accurately what is on the device.
After that, long press on a specific picture in the gallery might get you a pop up menu you can select a details or properties option from? That should tell you (one at a time...) where to find each picture.
Note: thumbnails are tiny, low resolution copies of the picture and not what you want to end up with, just one clue on the path of finding what you are looking for.
Hope this helps some.

H icon to 4g? Need help

I have a nexus 5 running 4.4.2 aosp hammerhead and I was wondering if any body knows where I can find a zip to flash the h icon to a 4g icon. I don't like the h icon. Any help is appreciated
Sent from my AOSP on HammerHead using xda app-developers app
You'd have to make one yourself. Because H isn't 4g, there aren't many people who would want to create that

I'd rather keep it into a H/H+. :/ I wanna know what I'm using @shooterlgk. I'm sure many others would agree. Unfortunately for you your that small percentage that wants what you want.
You just gotta find a Dev who can do it. Maybe try contacting whoever makes gravitybox to add that feature in. That guy is always adding more and more and more features, even VERY VERY VERY small ones.

Why would you want to make at say something incorrect?
If you want 4g/LTE changing the icon won't make a difference, if you are still connected to hspa, connecting to LTE/4g will.. And then it should say LTE instead.

He wants the H/H+ to say 4G(he could have it 4G/4G+)and LTE to say LTE.
Sent from my Ñ£×Ú$ 5
I get that, but since 4g is synonymous with lte in most parts of the world and hspa+ is an extension of the 3g standard at best it makes no sense to make it say 4g when using hspa/hspa+. If anything, 4g should replace lte in the statusbar.(technically you cant describe lte in its current form as 4g either, but since the providers branded it that way, it'll have to do for now)
You would need to edit your ROMs SystemUI.apk, in the res/drawables folders, find the images for the data and copy the 4G one and paste it and rename it to the name of the H one.
That is how you can do it, for editing the SystemUI you would need to use something like APK Tool.
Just know that
H =/= 4G,
H+ =/= 4G,
LTE =/= 4G.
4G is 4G and changing icons wont change that
I just hate the h icon. I had an s4 before an would get a 4g icon and once I came to the nexus I got an h..and I tried messing with the system ui says icons r missing
