Please do help, I would like to modify the signal meter as well.

download the "Uncommon" theme, its in the 2nd post of the skyraider 3.3 thread.

Any way to get the 6 signal bar on stock sense? I am rooted and that is it.

In the OP I stated I didn't want the entire theme. Just the 6-bar signal meter. The reason why I don't want the Uncommon pack is because I like the Sense Rosie.

Download the pack, and push just the "services.jar" file to /system/framework.

Have you tested this? Here's what happened to me: I pushed the services.jar as instructed. Afterwards, my phone boots, but it takes about 5 minutes each time it reboots. But it does show the 6 bar signal meter. I only get to see it for about 10 seconds before my phone reboots again. It then just keeps going in a loop, rebooting.

Did you grant services.jar rw-r--r-- permissions, thats how I pushed it with rootexplorer?
Hope this helps you!

You guys are on the money. Download the pack, push services.jar. That will give you 6 bars. The 5 minute reboot is normal, and it should only happen the first time. Any jar changes will cause this.

I don't have any problems with the push. And I do get the 6 bars. The only problem is that my phone keeps rebooting, and it takes about 5 minutes EVERY TIME it reboots.
I'd feel much better if someone with SR3.3.1 will admit that the've done this successfully. Then I'd have some hope. Because I just tried this again this morning (for the 3rd time) and get the same results.

Okay. I personally hand coded the signal bar modification to the services.jar you are using. I made this for skyraider. I'm using it, with my uncommon pack, on skyraider without any issues.
Feel better?

But I'm not using the uncommon pack. Wasn't that what the OP's original post was about.?.just the signal meter WITHOUT the uncommon sense pack? I'm only installing the services.jar, and that is all. When did the thread subject change to include the uncommon sense pack?

We were discussing pulling services.jar from the pack, and using it by itself. I am certifying that it works. That's all.

I appreciate that, thanks.

Just to add one more confirmation:
To install this on SkyRaider 3.3.1:
1) Pull services.jar from the uncommon pack
2) Use Root Explorer to rename the old services.jar to services.bak (just in case)
3) Again with Root Explorer, copy/paste the new services.jar (/system/framework)
4) Long press the new file, select Permissions, then check Read/Write for User, Read for Group, and Read for Others. You could also chmod 644 using Terminal, I believe.
5) Reboot and be patient.
6) Enjoy!

UPDATE: Worked like a charm! Thanks!

Make your boring old 3G icon on status bar to the new Fancy 4G LTE icon.
Screenshots attached below
-Download the zip file
-Move the file to root of SD card
-Install via Bootstrap if you don't have bootstrap the apk is below move that to Root of SD card also and then install on phone
-Open bootstrap app hit "Bootstrap Recovery" then hit "Reboot Recovery"
-After it reboots hit install from sd card using volume rocker buttons then select it with red camera key
-Pick the file "3G to 4G LTE icon.zip" and install it
-Then reboot your phone
-Theres your fancy 4G LTE icon
ENJOY!

Umm....no
Can I have the stock HTC EVO boot animation while you're at it. What's the point of modding 4G LTE on there when we don't have 4G LTE?

Haha thats pretty Sick! I'm gona go trick my friends now lol

Glad like you said I'm not the only one cause I just reloaded it

not working on gummyjar 2.5 either.

Guys its not an update.zip file. Its just the file in a compressed format. Unzip it then push it to where it belongs. It won't install because their is no updater-script

I'm on liberty and it won't flash

how do you push it and to where?

Ahahaha, you guys need to look at what you download. Anytime you download a .zip file check to see if a META-INF folder in it because then it means it can be flashed. He didn't put in and update.zip because then he could only share with one or two phones. Thanks for the OP and good work...

Green Status Bar Fix for OTA

This is a modified SystemUI.apk to give you the green Signal & Wi-Fi bars. They will be green all the time, but it looks better this way. I installed it using NinjaMorph, but you could install it any way you'd like..
Message me if you need help.
You MUST be rooted for this to work!

I would love to have them work so green means uninhibited connection, but i agree I do like me some green =)
do you know of any thing (other than a new ROM) where you can set what color it uses?

Is there any other way to install this other than ninja morph?

You could probably just use a root file manager

Download root explorer from the market. Download the .apk from the first post and place it on the root of your sdcard. Open root explorer and find the .apk you just placed on your sdcard and long press it and hit copy. The go to system>app and paste it there. It should replace the stock SystemUI.apk. Then reboot and you should have the green icons.

Thank You. Any info on maybe a segmented accurate battery mod? (Im sure their are a few floating around here, but thought I would post)

[Q] Removing beats audio

I am running Lithium as my rom, which has beats audio installed. This has caused some problems for me, as it lowers audio quality when using poweramp. If you disagree, keep it to yourself and don't tell me I am wrong in this thread. Wow, that just sounded a lot meaner than it was meant to. Anyways, is there any way to remove it completely?

I was looking at that at one time... and I started writing down all of the files that get installed with the mod... but then I got to the /system/etc/ folder and gave up...
If you're feeling motivated, check out the attached zip for everything it installs, and then you could attempt to remove those files... by your method of choice.
NOTE: NO ONE SHOULD ATTEMPT TO FLASH THE ATTACHMENT - sorry for yelling, but it's not a flashable zip, just the system folder from the BeatsAudiob0314.zip for reference...
You should probably cross-reference and take the proper files from a stock ROM you have lying around though, because a few of the files are replaced, like /system/etc/media_profiles.xml and /lib/libreverbwrapper.so & libvisualizer.so (and possibly others?)... In fact, if you do manage to do all of that it would definitely be worth making a "remove beats audio" script/zip

Well, I removed it from the rom after setting it up with rom kitchen. This has worked before, but now it will not flash, I get an error in CWM that says something about status 0 and it aborts the zip install I think that has something to do with the update binary. anyone have any ideas?

Yea, that sounds like an updater-script or update-binary file issue... You could try borrowing the META-INF folder from a different flashable rom...
Or maybe you could remove the necessary files through adb in recovery (or make a script if you can - that's beyond me) and make a smaller update.zip with the files you need to replace. I have much better luck making small flashable zips as opposed to full roms. Either way, good luck! And keep us posted..

Status 0 refers to an issue eighths updater-script. Make sure you have a semicolon at the end of every line, and the line endings are in Linux format if you using windows.

...and a blank line at the bottom of the script..
Another thought... don't know how well it would work but - you could possibly make a cwm backup, get it on to your comp, open the system.ext3.tar with 7-zip, and do all of your deleting/replacing through 7-zip... then close her up, move it back to your sdcard and restore as normal (or restore system only).. obviously not touching the name or md5 sum..
again, never tried anything like that, but it sounds possible (in my head at least)...

well all I need to do is replace and delete the right files, I am almost done with a flashable zip to just do that. do you know if the files that were listed as needing to be replaced instead of deleted (which is true) will work on all devices? I would like to post this for other device users to use if so.

That I do not know.
But, if you could do it for our phone first (keep it in the family ), I'm sure others would eventually port it to their device if it doesn't work right.. sounds like it'd be a very useful "anti-mod", if you will...

all right, I will finish it with what I have for replacements on our phone, then see if anyone else will test it on some others. is there a good way to make sure it worked other than making sure nothing is force closing and the files are gone?

That's probably the best you can do.. if it boots, no FC's, audio still works, files gone, then you're probably good to go. I would offer to test it but I got no beats mod installed right now... Did you successfully remove it on yours?

not yet, there are a ton of files and I have to manually type out all the file names into the zip updater file, so it is taking forever, I'm getting close though. I will put it up in an hour or so, assuming it works.

What a pain in the arse. I installed beats, to my dismay, it hurt sound quality. The voodoo sound mod is much better. If you made a backup, I didn't, prior to install you are in good shape otherwise, full wipe and reinstall rom. It would be great if someone made an uninstall zip. Good luck!

my uninstall zip will be up in less than an hour, assuming I am not doing it completely wrong! It should work on the Atrix 2, but some files get replaced, not deleted. I think this should be fine, cross platform but you know the drill, not my problem if it does something bad and all that stuff.

[MOD] MDPI Phone apk for CM9/AOKP 160dpi

I'm fairly new to the xda community... So I'm hoping this works for others like it worked for me. I tried about 20 different modded phone apks that were supposedly designed to work for 160dpi setting on AOKP and CM9 roms and I was just about to give up when I stumbled across one that actually works!!! Directions are pretty simple...
1. Download phone.apk file from below
2. move to root of sd card
3. In root explorer (or any file browser with root access) go to /system/app and rename original phone.apk to phone.apk.bak
4. Copy and paste new phone.apk in /system/app
5. Reboot phone and enjoy
No need to change app permissions to -rw-r--r--
UPDATE!!!! For those of you that prefer a flashable zip, Mr. Apocalypse was kind enough to upload one in post #12 of this thread
If you run into any problems let me know and I'll try to help with troubleshooting.

It replaces the stock phone app... The stock phone app will crash on any LCD density below 200 dpi. This modded phone app will run on the lower densities so you can use the 160 dpi setting and still be able to make/receive phone calls without a FC error.

It's nothing major... Just a fix for a force close error when using the phone app on different LCD densities. A lot of ppl like the look of 160 dpi and 128 dpi (tablet mode) but you lose call functionality as a consequence... This fixes that issue.

Also... If you decide to return the phone to stock LCD density there's no need to revert back to the old phone apk... This one will work in all densities from 128-240 dpi. (I haven't tried anything larger than 240 yet... IDK why anyone would though )

Ah, okay got it..

thankyou so much! fixed my issue wondered why it kept crashing when it was lower than 200 lol

I'll try it out. That FC pop up gets annoyings as stopping and clearing data after every reboot gets annoying lol.
Does this permanently replace the stock phone apk?

I can't get anything to work. Not the rename, not the copy and past. Nothing.

Make sure the /system folder is mounted as read/write before you do this... If your file explorer app doesn't have the option to give you root access you can mount /system by using terminal emulator.
Use the following commands:
su
busybox mount -o remount,rw /system

Didn't find any working package so I started browsing the Android source.
I think I found the root of this problem:
https://github.com/AOKP/packages_apps_Phone/blob/ics/res/layout/incall_touch_ui.xml#L52
Code:
<!--
(1) incomingCallWidget: the UI displayed while an incoming call is ringing.
See InCallTouchUi.showIncomingCallWidget().
Layout notes:
- Use an opaque black background since we need to cover up
a bit of the bottom of the contact photo
- The verticalOffset value gets us a little extra space above
the topmost "Respond by SMS" icon
- [b]The negative layout_marginBottom shifts us slightly downward;
we're already aligned with the bottom of the screen, but we
don't have an icon in the downward direction so the whole
bottom area of this widget is just wasted space.[/b]
-->
<com.android.internal.widget.multiwaveview.MultiWaveView
android:id="@+id/incomingCallWidget"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
[b]android:layout_marginBottom="-46dp"[/b]
android:background="@android:color/black"
android:visibility="gone"
I guess this -46dp is too much and needs to be lowered a bit.
