[MOD] ICS Transition Animations - T-Mobile LG G2x

Hey guys, I'm trying to port over the ICS transition animations over to the CM nightlies via this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342117
I did everything to a T numerous times and every time I push the newly modified framework-res.apk into my system/framework via Root Explorer I'm always hit with FC's and when I reboot I get hit with bootloops.
Anyways I was wondering if anyone else can see how to get this working on the G2x, any help would be great!

just wandering isnt the framework for cm7 different from the framework for ics so that may be the problem. just my thoughts.

You are aware that this is done in the computer, not inside the rom, you have to do this with the zipped rom, and then flash it.

Yes I took the framework, decompiled it, replaced the old animations with the ICS ones. Then I recompiled it, signed it, and then tried to push it into my system and get loops every time. What I'm doing should be working but its not. So was wondering if someone who knows more about this could see why its not working.

Yeah... That's what I'm stuck on. I don't get what we're doing wrong.

Not that it will likely help much, but it is not required to sign system apks. Furthermore, are you making any XML edits? If so did you make sure to remove the edited files and the resources file?

Thanks for the response! Yes, I edited the XML and added two lines. And I deleted the resource.arsc file as well. You think you can give it a shot and see if you can get it to work?

I hope anyone else can chime in this. I'm eager to get this working.

There are way cooler transitions than ics don't waste your time

System files should never be resigned after editing them. That is why APK Manager asks you if it is a system file. It doesn't sign it. Just compile it and then zip align it. Don't sign it and try it again. Also when I recompile system files I never say Yes to the last question about copying everything over to the keep folder. I just recompile from the files in my project folder and I never have problems.

I think the ea asiest way of doing this is deleting the anim folder in the framework-res.apk and drag/drop ics anim folder into that apk. It might ask you if you want to add, just click yes. And then just push the new modded framework-res to your phone with adb. That's what I did from cm6 to cm7. It might be different with ICS....its worth a shot. Hope this helps.

What's with all the interest in porting these animations anyway? They are nothing special.

It's the lure of something new ... there are a couple of places the effect is nice. It also matches well with CRT-OFF.

You have to tell people what rom you are using. The framework files are not the same between the different roms. You just can't use a modified framework meant for another rom.

i have miui 11/18 but ill switch to cm7 if you can get it working on that

I GOT IT !!! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342117&page=14
find the patcher by DaxElectro and download it , it works with miui and cm7 , once you make the 2 zips go into recovery mode and go to mounts and storage than mount system than flash the patch zip and enjoy ics transitions , i tested it with miui and it works

HoneyComb Boot Animation

I'm not sure if this has been posted here and I'm not taking credit, all I'm doing is bringing this over from AC
Boot zip(place in system/customize/resource folder) using root explorer or something similar.
Using CM roms, place zip in system/media - http://www.megaupload.com/?d=NMC0ZHLC
DON'T FORGET, IF YOU'RE MOVING THE ZIP, TO ALSO RENAME OR MOVE WHATEVER BOOTANIMATION ZIP YOU ARE CURRENTLY RUNNING
Enjoy!
EDIT Removed the link for the flashable zip since people are saying it's not working. Again, this is not my work and I simply moved the bootanimation zip using root explorer. It's very simple.
Thank you ill flash it right now
Let's take a look...
Thanks for posting, but this really isn't anything new. I've seen this boot animation on several ROMs before.
animations on video please? somewere on youtube haha

You have to use an app like root explorer or adb because you are replacing protected system files. You wont be able to just copy and paste through windows.

Try the attached framework-res.apk file. Place it in the /system/framework folder using rootexplorer. It worked for me, but no guarantees. Don't get mad at me if this bricks your phone.

breaker911 what are you modifiying inside the framework to enable the crt screen animation? I found a guide which points to an XML file that does not exist inside my framework files.
I would love to learn to do this myself.

[Theme][EP4D] BioCharge v1 [Debloater][12/01/11]

After an all-nighter, a day, and another all-nighter, I'm proud to present BioCharge; a touch of Bionic for your Charge. This is my first attempt at theming, and an attempt to port the Driod Bionic's UI to the Droid Charge.
NOTE! This theme is anywhere but done, however I consider it full enough to release a copy of it. Very few apps are themed and most apps included are only included for the icon. This theme is still very poopified and will be worked on casually by me over time.
What you need:
dwitherall's flashable EP4D + extras
The latest version of CWM
Bravery and backups
What's included:
A fully themed TouchWiz30Launcher.apk
A handful of icons for stock apps
AOSP Mms.apk (if you want the stock Mms.apk, make a backup of it before flashing)
A debloater in the install script (in case you left the bloat already or are flashing this over a fresh install)
What's to come:
More themed apps
I'll take requests, speak your mind!
Download here!
Screenshots!
Looks very good! Keep up the good work.
Sent from my mobile office.
thank you!
The theme looks great and I look forward to the next release.
Can this be flashed on any ep4 debloated?

I just tryed to open my camera and it force closed.
To everyone getting FC's: do a fix permissions and see if that clears it up. The only part of Camera.apk I changed was the icon.
i just fixed permissions and im still getting FC's
could you possibly post a version that does not run the debloat script?
Thanks!
For the problem with the Camera app, you can go into the original zip file for the EP4D update and find the Camera.apk and Camerafirmware.apk and extract them to your SDCard, and then use root explorer to copy and paste both back into your system/app folder. Of course, you should use Titanium backup to uninstall both those files before you copy the new files over. I have both the files on hand, but I don't know if the rules of the forum restrict posting stock apks
Can't wait until this is done. Make Sam look like moto.

(SOLVED) Need help with UOT kitchen

Is there anybody who would be willing to help me with using UOT kitchen? I would really appreciate it. Any body who has my phone the Samsung exhibit 2 4g would be best. But all are welcome.
Sent from my SGH-T679 using xda premium
You're a big boy now. Use your words to express the kind of help you seek, otherwise we can only guess as to the difficulty you are having.
That first part was unnesscary. Anyways it just seems a little complicated and I don't know how the whole process works. Just two things I guess, is the theme I produce in the kitchen a rom or is it just a framework I apply and it doesn't replace the rom I'm using. And do I need to make copies of my framework and that other thing and upload it to the kitchen to make my theme?
Sent from my SGH-T679 using xda premium
Your going to need two files...copy the ones you have on your phone.. system.ui.apk/framework-res.Apk...... then whem your building the theme you like you will add those last.. it will ask you to upload those.. do it...wait till the kitchen makes the theme and place it on the sd card.. flash it.....that's it.. it just adds whatever u made to your current set up your on.. either stock or a rom your on.. or theme.. it will substitute the parts you made and use those instead ...goodluck
It can also be called "SystemUI.apk" right?
Sent from my SGH-T679 using xda premium
OK I did the kitchen and it worked. I have a different status bar and lock screen. Although the boot animation didn't work, probabily because of my rom.
Sent from my SGH-T679 using xda premium
Are you using a ROM with TouchWiz? If so, you will need three files. Connect your phone to your comp and go into /system
From there, go to /apps and copy SystemUI.apk to the desktop. Then go back a folder and go to /framework From there, copy framework-res.apk, and if you have touchwiz, copy twframework.apk to the desktop. Upload these files to UOT when you get to that step.
Once you get the new files from UOT, save it to the desktop and open it. Delete the three previous files you copied to the desktop, then search the one you got from UOT, for the same 3 files.
Now, pay attention, and get Root Explorer or Super Manager.
Open the app of your choice that will let your explore your file system. Find the 3 same files we've been dealing with in their respective locations on your phone, using the file explorer. (after you've transfered the ones from UOT to THE ROOT of your sd card) Copy the 3 UOT files over the ones already in your phone, which you will find in their previosly disclosed locations.
Once copied, IMMEDIATELY reboot to recovery and fix permissions.
Substitute "3 files" for "2 files" if not using Touchwiz.
Hope this helped!
---------- Post added at 02:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:55 AM ----------
Also, you can just straight copy the UOT files to their respective locations in the .zip of the custom ROM you are using, and flash the ROM.
Yea I have the twframework apk in my system, does that mean its touch wiz?
Sent from my SGH-T679 using xda premium
yes. and follow my instructions above, or you will start to have errors. Definatel force closes.
The fact that the status bar wasn't changing could have been due to the fact that I wasn't adding my touch wiz framework?

This message "WAS" for mendozinas but last post i found from him was in 2011. i do thank for having a kitchen like this to customize pretty much anything for my phone (p500) Optimus one. I was informed that the kitchen will not support ics based so i flashed over Slimgen 1.6.0 (android 2.3.7) i just made some themes for the rom, havent tried them yet. I did upload the Framework.res and SystemUI.apk of the rom so hopefully it will work this time. I was wondering If anyone can add my rom (well the rom im using) on the kitchen list. SlimGen 1.6.0 here is the link to download the rom itself. im sure you already know.
http://code.google.com/p/slimgen-pro...downloads/list
Regarding to Mendozinas only. (Please reply back if you recieved my message. thanks agian. i do appreciate it. I sent you a PM figuring it will get to you quicker but i realized you must have many Pm's about certain questions. So maybe this will do the trick.) Regarding to Mendozinas only.
I tried to trouble shoot myself, still in early dev mode for me (learning the ropes) but i made a copy of the rom i have and plugged in what was from the UOT file that was giving to me from the kitchen. I made a flashable zip on my desktop and place it on the root of my sdcard. Booted into recovery...flashed it but still i get the same message. Am i using a correct rom for this or what?
Im attaching the UOT file i made so if u may need to look at it its there, any info you want from me just ask, im very greatful for the help, would really like to make different themes on my phone for start then move to rom modding .
I would really like a step by step if possible so i may get this theme up and flashed on my phone so i may make different ones for future needs.
Thanks again and hopefully i will be hearing from you.
(I posted this up couples days ago. but nobody is dealing in that thread i guess, So hopefully one of you are more familiar using the kitchen then i am.) 07-30-12 date.
I hope i gave the right information to lead me into the right direction soi may start understanding how to work around such problems like this. Thanks
Welp, all's well that's ends well

Make sure the apk is compiled and signed properly first off, I had an issue similar to yours. Also make sure there are no clashing files such as the original Rosie and framework files. No missing files within the Rosie or framework is necessary. I hope you saved all original files in a safe place?
