[Q] Eclipse 1.4 Battery Notification - Verizon Droid Charge

Can anyone confirm or deny whether Eclipse 1.4 has a sound notification when they battery is dying or dead?
If it was removed intentionally, is there any way I can get it back?

There is no sound. There might be a mod on the eclipse website, not sure though.

Hmm..
It was probably removed intentionally, lots of people including myself find it really annoying . If you want to try to get it back, rename the file of the notification sound that you want to LowBattery.ogg, and move it into the ./system/media/audio/ui folder. You need to be rooted, I use fileexplorer; awesome app.

2.) on the dialer page, how do i get the quick launch at the top to show "contacts" instead of hitting the soft keys at the bottom?

2.) You don't. ICS removed that feature. I've seen some people say that they are working on modding it back in, but I have yet to see any success. Although, I could be mistaken... which would actually be great haha.

Poweramp is a music player that can be bought from the play store. That's all, it's not a super secret system type thing. It's a nice music player a lot of people use, so Sean made a way for it to work.

ICS "Style" Settings for 2.3.4 (bluetooth crash fix)

What Is It?
It's an ICS styled Settings modification. It won't do your dishes, but it will make your Gingerbread 2.3.4 phone a bit fresher. It will NOT Work on Tsugi or JBoxer's 2.3.4 as those are based on the leak. Your best bet right now is Kwes1020's Rom.
Does it do anything Special?
A few of the settings are easier to access than previously. Other than that, it looks pretty.
A couple of icons are missing!
Well yeah, I got bored. I might fix 'em later, or leave it to a themer to add the icon for Tethering.
Can I see it?
Sure! Attachments included.
Can I install it?
I'm lazy and didn't make a flashable ZIP. Maybe that's also to keep people who don't know what they're doing from flashing it on Weapon/Tsugi/cm9/cm10/their dog, etc and then complaining.
If you have OTA 2.3.4 copy the attached Settings.apk to your system/app folder, and you'll have the new Settings. Yay.
Note: 10/19/12 - I fixed the bluetooth crash.

Could have to do with the Bluetooth connection notification sound. I don't have access to the files right now as I started a new job that's taking up 60+ hrs/week plus commute...
However, the fix is pretty simple if it's what I think it is... you have to open the APK file with winrar, copy the audio file from the resources folder, delete it from the archive, and then copy it BACK to the same location in the archive. When the options window comes up, change the compression level to "store"..
This is due to two bugs... 1) APKTool doesn't always leave audio resources uncompressed as it should, 2) Android sometimes force closes if an audio resource is compressed. Problem was supposed to be fixed in Gingerbread, but LG is using Froyo code in the kernel so the problem persists.
Yeah, it's months later. OTA is dead and done with.
But I fixed that crash bug when pairing bluetooth using this settings.apk, if anyone wants an ICS looking Settings on their 2.3.4 OTA Rom ... all 2 of you lol... Original post has been updated with the newer Settings.apk.

[rom] miui ics 4.0.4:Updated 7/20/12

i am proud to present my 6th rom port for the heroC.
changelog:
v1
- updated to reflect henry_01's 2.7.8 port
v1-1
- added quickpic (sorry about that guys, totally forgot it)
-lowmemorykiller tweaks are now in line with roms from jordfaz and 1ceb0x
-wallpapers and sounds are now added back in
-size of apks edited some to allow for the same sized rom as v1 but with all the sounds and images put back in
to start, im not gifted enough to know how to develop, im just a lowly borrower, so if i have nothing to borrow, i have nothing to offer
also i take no responsibility for your phone crashing and burning in an epic fashion, and/or if your cat jumps off your keyboard and makes your coffee spill on your lap, or war, or famine, or disease, or anything of the sort. try at your own risk, dont bother me if your phone blows up
dont give me any credit, give the following people mad props and donate to them if you wish to:
original rom link from wfs: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1735773
Henry_01 for his port (link above)
ajrty33 for porting the first MIUI ICS rom
erwinp for the youtube fix
stritfajt for getting the camera working
mongoosehelix and all the crew over at the eris forums for the base rom
1ceb0x and the crew over at the hero gsm forums for the init.rc tweaks and the minfree settings in kernel
dsixda and his kitchen
matt, dastin, jaybob and the heroc crew
zeppelinrox and his v6 supercharger script
im sure i forgot people, im sorry if i did and if i forgot you please yell at me and ill make sure to thank you
this is based off of 4.0.4, MIUI v4 for the Wildfire S
what works:
touchscreen
sdcard
radio (data and calls)
adb
camera preview and taking pics
bigger keyboard, more like gb
wifi
sound
buttons
audio
root
vibration
bluetooth
zeppelinrox's supercharger script (just to supercharge launcher)
video playing from sdcard (use quickpic and .3gp video format)
minfrees set in kernel at boot time
mms hopefully
usb mass storage
themes
youtube (non hd)
try messing with camera settings in camera app, i turned down the resolution from 5 mp to 2.5 and picture taking worked quicker and looked better in my opinion
works with problems:
long press home displays large previews, not sure why just yet
other stuff im sure
what i didnt test: (lol its your jobs to test it)
pretty much everything else
when you flash this, remember i did not sign it, so if your using clockworkmod recovery toggle signature verification
i recommend you go let this boot all the way, then reboot. then after that, go into settings-developer options, and click the tick box next to:
background process limit/ at most 4 processes
show all ANRs
and make sure animations are off
i turn off all vibration, except for notifications, that includes the keyboard as haptic feedback slows things down.
then use script manager to run zeppelinrox's v6 supercharger to bulletproof launcher
this is the gapps i use from eris: http://www.mediafire.com/?qbpc1zthauh4c1h
md5sum: 2b4d664eda701da65d2ea2c5c928267d
(this is the same gapps offered over at the eris forums, i just added geniewidget as i like my news and weather widget)
go into phone app, hit menu, then settings, and check your voicemail number, im on boost so mine is my phone number
this port will not:
most likely be a finished project
win a beauty contest
make your manhood bigger
if you see something wrong, please fix it or ask me to
and now for the link before i forget:
MIUI 4.0.4v1-1
http://www.mediafire.com/?hjvpm1t1w31bqgw
if you see problems or have suggestions, please let me know. i dont know much about MIUI, as i havnt used it much since ajrty33 ported it for heroc (gb and original ics roms.) so if you see something that needs changed to better fit the mold of a good MIUI rom, please do let me know.
happy flashing!
Nice work man, Nice work indeed=}
#Root-Hack_Mod*Always\=LTE
thank you again
and a new version is up, based off of 2.7.8 for the nexus s i beleive. henry_01 goes more into detail about it in the link in the op. i've noticed this one to be a tiny bit faster and now has all the google stuff baked in

there are still theme issues im not sure of, im still looking into them. and i did remove the file explorer app, as most people just use es or astro anyway.
other than that it seems to be working fine on my end.

Whew, glad there isn't an issue with the browser. I'll redownload then, see if that helps, because I do have the music apk. Might want to take a look at the xda build of the miui file explorer, it has root and a bunch of other goodies, that's what I'm using on my incredible atm, looks great and works great too.
K ill take a look at the Miui file browser.
And this is an hdpi rom according to the contents of the apks. It came from the nexus s I believe so that could explain alot.

It's probably just me but I'm having root issues on this ROM. I have Superuser downloaded. I even flashed the su 3.0.7 zip (Latest SU zip I'm aware of) I'm rooted obviously or else I wouldn't be here. It's just on this ROM. I tried reflashing this 3 times. Other than that, it's a really great ROM. It runs very smoothly.
Sorry about the su issues, but I think its the way that miui implements su that gives us headaches. In settings somewhere, there should be an option for root access I'm just not sure where it is. I'll look into it.

Yeah I've look at the system settings and unless it's under a different name, I don't see anything that deals with root access.
so here it goes guys. im out of the game for now. expect no new updates on the ics roms i have ported before. jb is the future, and shelnutt is the guy to get us into the future. ics roms never quite ran great anyway, so no big loss. i may pop back up in the future and throw down on some jb paranoidandroid, aokp, miui, or anything of the such, but i cannot guaruntee a thing. its been nice, but support for these roms stops here. (unless of course, anyone else would like to take these over for me, or i can get the guys from gsm hero using my allinone installer full time, then heroc will have everything they get)
if anyone would like to take over, please message me. ill be more than willing to send everything your way, since im way too busy with life in general right now.

[Q] tweeked 3.0 ROM ?

Just upgraded to tweeked 3 and have some problems:
1. I can't find the voicemail app & don't know how to call VM. where do I get the app?
2. Buddies now is missing. Won't restore via titanium backup.
3. I migrated from eclipse rom. How do I get the eclipse rom keyboard and colors?
4. Howdo Irestore the default power on and power off animations?
5. Verizon Data APP / My veerizon forces close on startup.
I think that is it for now. Will post when I have some time to play with it.

1. You don't need the app for voicemail. Just dial *86 or hold down 1 in the dialer.
2. Buddies now is considered bloat and you can only use it on the stock launcher anyway. If you want it it is in tweaktools.
3. I believe eclipse keyboard was either a themed ICS or themed Swype (I don't remember which - it was too long ago). Either way both are available if you search. As for the colors - since Nitro stopped working on the charge we don't have that, but there are a lot of themes on tweaktools.
4. Tweaktools
5. It works fine for me. Could be a bad flash, could be something else.
And I guess we have another nocturnal person here.
The vvm stuff was also deemed bloat, but all of that stuff can be restored using tweaktools OR the system apps and system app flasher in the tweaked op. Jihad has you covered on the rest (thanks Jihad).
I got the verizon app to work after deleting and reinstalling. The rest I can live with till I have a chance to research Tweaktools. Most of the stuff is minor and just me being picky as I'm not yet used to the tweeked ROM.
Tweakedtools: doesn't seem to be working. I can get into the menu and install a theme and buddies now, but they don't act as though they ever got installed. even rebooted. What the heck?

You don't have CWM installed? I doubt it works with stock recovery. When you installed Tweaked did you use the Odin version without CWM? You should get and install CWM.
The only 2 boot animations that work are Stock Galaxy S boot and Stock DROID boot. They use the Samsung format that works with the stock kernel. Themes should work though.
Ok. Now I understand. I did use oden version without cwm. Now I need to oden cwm and I'll be good to go.
EDIT:
Thanks for the info, everything works.
Now I need to find a suitable keyboard---possibly one that mirrors the one in the eclipse rom.
On another note, I'm not all that happy with any of the included themes. How to I create the theme I want?
If you know Java and smali, you can rip apart the framework and make your own theme.

I have no idea on how to work with Java or what smali is.
I do have the old eclipse ROM. can't i take the theme files from there and somehow load them to the phone?
Regarding the keyoard, I couldn't get that swipe one to install as the app keeps asking me to login and I don't know how to generate a username and password. I'm now thinking that it was a Samsung keyboard, but I could be wrong.
Smali is basically the decompiled Android version of Java. In Android, everything gets packed up in .dex files for the Dalvik VM (Android's optimized version of the Java VM), and when you decompile them, you get Smali. It's like Java, but "distorted", for lack of a better word. If you know how to read Java, you can feel your way around, but it's different enough that even if you're good with Java, you'll have to relearn some things for Smali.
well...I did some searching on line and I think the stock theme that comes preloaded at the factory is what I want to get back to. Also the default Samsung keyboard is the one I want.
I'm leaning towards tossing tweaked out the window rather than getting frustrated. If I do that what do I loose and how would I add root to stock?
also, I can't manage to get the phone to vibrate when i tap the screen. Haptic feedback. How do I turn it on?

No. What you think of as "files" are a series of edits in the framework. Obviously the framework for Tweaked is for Tweaked, and Eclipse is for Eclipse. If you're going to try to interchange these things you may as well just reinstall Eclipse.
For Swype, I'm not sure what you're talking about. There's a big honking button that says "register" on the website.

Not sure what you're looking at. The theme in Eclipse is NOTHING like the dickbutt gold (or pumpkin and poo) in stock. And the stock Samsung keyboard is God awful. Why not try something like SwiftKey 3? Swype is pretty good too, and it's free.
To root after restocking, all you would need to do is flash the SuperUser or SuperSU (whichever is your preference) zip in CWM. When you move from Tweaked (the only current custom ROM on the charge, by the way) you lose essentially everything. Dwitherell has put in numerous tweaks to improve the UI speed, and he has put in TSM parts... Plus you'll be back to the bloated whale this phone is at stock.
I believe most of the haptic feedback was removed in Tweaked because most view it as an annoying useless feature. I could be completely wrong but I don't really feel anything even though my haptic feedback is on.
Sent from my SCH-I510 using xda premium
I did nothing that would add or eliminate haptic feedback (outside of the entry in tsmparts, but I did nothing to hook that in if it needed hooking). Also, the stock samsung keyboard is called AxT9IME.apk. Sorry Tweaked is not to your liking. Have you tried the tw4 theme? That seems closer to the stock look at least. I didn't think anyone used it, but I can do a little work and get a stock theme variant together if you want. Also, rumor is some theme options will be added/returning soon...
And for what its worth flashing something different is a far better alternative then anything to do with a window.
Thanks for all the useful info. I must start by saying that i do like tweaked. It is much faster than what i had with eclipse. That said im not sure how much is due.to the rom and what is due.to the upgrade ota. I believe its mostly the rom. Way to go!
As for colors im not opposed to whats available im just used to what i had. The big complaint is that the calendar widgit does not have black text on a white background. Its not as legible but not horible. I can live with it. Im surprised there is no way to change colors like there is in windows control panel. Or an app for that. Oh well.
Thanks for.the keyboard.info. I'll take a look for it at lunch. As for missing the register button...it was to early to be doing anything tech.
Im sure that over time ill get more used to tweaked and be glad ro be uding it.
One last request...stock shutdown animation
Thats enough for now.

To be fair most of the speed change is due to the OTA - most of the edits made were the same as they were in the FP1 version, so I can't really take credit for that sort of thing. I don't have nor do I pretend to have the sort of skill necessary to do such things
As far as the stock shutdown animation, if there's some interest I could try to get that together. It required a number of framework.jar edits to switch the shutdown animation focus from reading a .qmg file to displaying a sequence of .pngs, so I would have to undo that sort of thing to make the shutdown.qmg work again. It wouldn't be too hard, so if there's some interest in that I can put something together and throw it on tweaktools.
I have interest but am not sure who else does and if its worth the time.
I googled the keyboard apk and downloaded it but it will not install. Is there a certain version that i need?

FWIW, I really lock the Tweaked Shutdown animation. Just need to find a sound byte to go with that (for those occasions when my phone shuts down without me knowing) - thinking of getting something from Southpark's tweak.
as for keyboards, have you tried ICS Keyboard? best in my experience.
Ice is not my thing. I just like the Samsung keyboard best. Just can't find a copy that installs.
Also what about stock screenshot setting?

[Q] Apps safe to remove/Freeze?

I am coming from the SGS Fasciante, so am quite familiar with all this flashing and stuff...but I just (FINALLY) got my upgrade to the SGS3 and I wanted to make sure of a few things before i go messing around.
I have rooted and unlocked and installed recovery...root works fine..even AdFree app works...
Using pure stock rooted..no rom has been flashed...Android 4.0.4 IMM76D.I535VRALHE
I remember reading somewhere that this phone now has some checker built in that will give an error that "Unauthorized software detected"...or something...if you modify the os too much...
Is this still true...? I want to remove or freeze the crap apps that come with the phone, but don't want it lock up the phone on me...Is it better to delete the app, or use a freeze program...any suggestions?
What about OTA updates with this phone?...do I need to be concerned about that... will it one day just deiced to update and i loose root etc....
Also, I flashed the DSP Manager.zip i used on my Fasciante..and it is working..most of the time...doesn't seem to affect Amazon MP3 like it did on the Fascinate...DSP Manger also won't stay on a lot...keeps reverting to stock sound quality....keep having to start stop player app and tweak DSP app to get it to tun back on...any ideas...?

You should only get the "unauthorized software detected" message if you attempt to flash a custom kernel (Or ROM that contains a custom kernel) when you haven't unlocked your bootloader, the latest version of ez unlock (1.4 I believe) will tell you it unlocked the bootloader and flashed a insecure aboot. Check out this guide and this guide for apps that are safe to remove or freeze on your phone (If you think you may need the app again sometime just freeze it rather then remove it that way if you need it latter you can unfreeze), also pay careful attention to the guides and make a backup before removing or freezing any apps. I personally use Titanium Backup for any application freezing or removing needs. If your running the stock Verizon ROM and your rooted there is always the possibility of them pushing an update along that breaks root (Fortunately you can restore a CWM or TWRP backup when you did have root, or use odin to restore the factory image). Further more, an awesome app by the name of OTA RootKeeper allows you to keep root even if Verizon issues a OTA update. I'm guessing DSP manager and Samsung's music player equalizer options may be interfearing with eachother causing the issues you mentioned. Technically this version of DSP Manager is for the international GS3 but it should still work on our Verizon version (As always make a backup before flashing anything). Plus not all parts of the Fascinate DSP Manager zip may be compatible with the Verizon Galaxy S3 once again causing you random problems. Well hope I helped let me know if you need more help .
About DSP manager...work fine in all players..including the Samsung player for flac files..but not for mp3...I did find winamp player works perfectly though with dsp manger I flashed..will have to try the one u linked to...
Edit: no change..appears to be the same zip...o well..winamp player for me...not as nice as the Samsung one...but...yea..want the better sound...

I agree, while the Samsung music player has a couple cool features and awesome UI most of the features seem kinda gimmicky like the sound alive settings, like you said I personally would stick with winamp, which is still a realy soild music player and the great sound and customization of DSP manager.

Yea..now that i can transfer my media player to the SGS3, my Fasicante officially gets retired..
There is only 2 other things with he SGS3 I am annoyed with at the moment:
Email and Gmail apps are ugly white versions...(special Touchwiz version I assume)I am not sure if there are blacked out versions of these for stock...I tried adding in the Email and Gmail .apk I was using from ICS for the Fasciante...but it wouldn't work....may just need to find another app from the market...
There doesn't seem to be any settings to adjust the toggles on the notification drop-down....don't need some, and want to add brightness toggle.......

You should considering rooting your phone and installing CM 10 or AOKP they both have customizable quick toggles and inverted gapps for gmail and you can get regular inverted email too.

flash a custom touchwiz rom such as beans and there should be a quick panel settings in your app drawer to adjust the toggles. Same thing for aosp...also you know where there is a guide wink wink if you need any instructions for rooting,unlocking, and flashing!

I probably will...eventually...but I want to keep stock as much as possible...maybe once the final release of JB for this device is out...and the bugs are worked out.
Use titanium backup to freeze ur apps... Great program, should be mandatory for root users and ROM flashers (imo) . As far as what to freeze, general rule of thumb, dont freeze anything that starts with com or has andy the android as the icon. Be careful freezing any launchers and definately make a nandroid backup prior to any freezing.

I was looking for this thread yesterday. I went looking for a comprehensive list that I knew existed but couldn't find my way back to this lol. This was in the Jellywiz thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31545527
Not my list, and I haven't tried everything to see what kind of results happen on what so play at your own risk and I would suggest backing up every single app you remove.
