[App][v1.1]Popup Browser Invoker - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps

Hey fellow XDA friends,
As we know that popup browser is added in stock JB roms but there is no way to launch it from launcher but only by clicking links.So I have made an app with the help of Gamma(my fellow dev) that will launch the stock popup browser with www.google.com as the home page.The app currently works perfect on Note and I expect it to work on all JB TW roms.But since I only have Note N7000 with me,I'm unable to test it on any other device running JB.Those having other phone running JB based TW roms can test it and report me
This is my first app I have ever written for android and I want it to be open source and have uploaded the sources tof course there isnt much big in the source as it only calls the Stock popup browser.But still Its my will to make all my work(more in future) opensource
This app works only on JB based TW roms.That means it wont work on AOSP or AOKP like CM10 and CM10 based roms etc..This is because There is no Popup browser on Roms built from sources like CM10.And this app is not a standalone popup browser app.It only invokes the stock popup browser already present in our JB roms...
Installation instruction:
1.Download the app v1.1 here
2.Install it as normal app or push it into /system/app with permission rw-r-r
Everyone are free to include this app in there roms without asking prior permission as long as credits are given .Please do press thanks if you use this app
Thanks to Gamma for helping me build my first app
Source-Update will be uploaded soon
Code:
Change log:
1. Added support for android 4.2.
2. Removed toast for those who don't like it.
Remove old app if you have before installing v1.1.Or else you will get signature conflict
because the signature is changed as I lost my old key store :silly:

Seems good installed fine and it works.

It's the same thing as adding a bookmark on the homescreen that opens google It'll ask of you want to use pop-up browser.

This app directly calls the popup browser activity and how do you call this a bookmark widget????
I had to give Google.com because popup browser will give fc when started without a weblink at the start

vijai2011,
great work, I expected the browser to work this way, but it didn't, now you've sorted it, thanks
p.s.
here's a slightly larger sized browser for anyone that wants it,
This is not the same as the apk in this thread, it's not installable, you have to copy to into /system/app, overwriting the original, set permissions to rw-r-r.
don't forget to keep a copy of the original, just in case you want to go back.

Noo, i didn't say that this is a simple bookmark, i said that it's possible to do this with a bookmark. Long-press the homescreen, choose "shortcut", then "Google". Now when i tap the bookmark it'll ask ask if i want to open the pop-up browser But we do save a few steps with your app

hi,
I saw Chrack's post, but this is one I changed before you started your thread, you might have noticed the browser headers are darker than the stock version, I've also changed the icon.
if anyone wants to resize it, just need to edit the dimens.xml in res/values folder, "main_body_width" & "main_body_height" are the 1st two lines to edit.
I noticed the mw_window_mode_resize.png in drawable-hdpi folder. so it looks like it should be resizable, but it's beyond my skills atm to figure out how to activate it. tho, there is a new build on its way, xxls3, hopefully it will work in that build?
cheers again

[tweak] Change screen resolution (density)

WORKING EXCELLENT with G2X Gingerbread leak update.zip, you will be in love !!!! NO MORE BAGS at all !!!
I was very surprised ! When I saw that LG G2x working EXCELLENT with density "190" with out ANY COSMETIC problem !!!!
Example: My nexus S of cause working too with "190 Density" BUT I got a lot of problem ! BECAUSE "ROM" not intended" to work with higher resolution !!!!!!!... EXAMPLE I got bad LOCK SCREEN, some widgets sucks...etc.
but I remembered first review about LG Optimus 2x, It said that the phone has higher resolution, plus I saw the photo.)
So lets START !
U need Root Explorer !
1) open root explorer.
2) go to system
3) open "Build.prop" (long press on it>open in text Editor)
4) almost at the bottom u will SEE this: ro.sf.lcd_density=240
5) Change 240 on 190
6) Close and save.
7) Fix permissions. (better do it in "rom manager")
8) Restart your phone.
(If you will find any bag, u can easy return everything back, I found only 1 ! On Latitude Icons funny lol!.....)
Unfortunately you can not see all the "buzz" from Screen shots:

Yup. Just makes everything smaller so you can view more on the screen at one time than you can by default.
Thanks for thread was curious how to do this outside of using the root tools app. Ended up with a density of 190, its all compact and tiny but the clock text is still visible.

Be aware some apps will no longer render full screen after changing this setting, you'll have to decide what you're willing to deal with if it happens or ask the dev of the app to do whatever it is with their app so it works with other random density.

Page transitions for AOKP ROMS...

Hi everyone,
I am using AOKP ROM build 40 and I want to change page transitions or app opening transitions....
Please can anyone help me with this....I had seen some really cool transition animations like the dialog box popping from the bottom in one of my friends SG ACE ROM....
Thanks
Sent from my GT-P1000 using xda app-developers app
I just use GO Launcher as my default launcher and use the animations/transitions from there. So many to choose from and for different scenarios too.
Personally, I set all my "effects" to Random. That way every time I switch home screens or enter the app drawer, it's different!

I am asking for animations which are for built in things...like the dialog box for everything or any app opening....I figured out that it can be done by editing anim folder in Res folder of framework.apk....but still I need someone to give me some some animations which are in XML format so that I can edit the apk....

Emojis?

I've seen a few apps in the Play Store (mostly just plugins for alternative SMS hosts like GoSMS) like Emoji Keyboard and Emoji Codec that I couldn't get to work. Then I attempted a method I found in the description of Emoji Keyboard's app information which involved replacing a file in system/fonts through root explorer. I know I did everything in the instructions but it didn't work for whatever reason.
I want to be able to send and receive emojis (at the very least, with someone using the same app as me) inter-Android and with iOS also if possible. Any possible app/method? I'm running CM10 8/16 build but will be updating to the 8/23 build that's coming.
And I'd prefer not to use What's App. Thanks in advance!

My experience with CM10:
the only way to access emojis is through the messaging app. They can be sent through text messages by pressing the menu button and selecting “insert emojis" provided that you have emoji support enabled in messaging settings. (From my experience, only later builds of CM10 have emoji support. That's source code though and has nothing to do with our brilliant devs).
To get emojis into Facebook you need to use a copy-paste workaround.
1) Enter stock messaging app and go to a conversation.
2) Press the menu button
3) Select insert emojis
4) Select desired emojis
5) Press back button to return to the message.
6) Copy the emojis and paste them into Facebook
Most should work, some might not. It's hit or miss. Peace sign, thumbs up, hearts and many more are on the working list.

Just wish they would intergrate them more into other apps such as FB. That copy and paste method just takes up to much time. Olus i think they could revamp some of them as they are pretty stupid, maybe add the finger, We all know that we would like that one once in awhile. :good:

I more recently flashed an emoji keyboard from the BaNkS GApps thread which you enable in input settings. So I use the selector notification every time I input text. Looks like this.

Editing Apps

The goal is to be able to change small things in some apps.
For example, there is an app called SnapChat which allows you to send a picture for 3 seconds and then closes the picture. In this scenario, I would like to be able to edit the .apk file to allow to stay for 4 seconds. Would this kind of this be possible?
How so?

use 7zip on your computer to swap out png's. change app's name from whatever.apk to whatever.zip then move it to your computer using 7zip open the archive. don't extract or unzip. navigate to res folder and open it. find the png files you want to change and insert your png files you want. make sure they are the correct size, in the correct format (png) and are named correctly. exactly as they are in the zip file. then close the zip transfer it back to your phone and rename back to whatever.apk i do suggest doing some more research before doing this. there are a lot of threads dedicated just for this. use the search engine at the top of the page.

[APP][4.0+] HaloShortcuts v1.0 - Create direct shortcuts to apps in floating mode

HaloShortcuts
Coincidently, there's another HaloShortcuts by @MainstreamStereotype that is similar to this one. :silly:
His has an additional feature and that is the ability to choose Activities within an App.
Please check his out also :good:
What?
A shortcut selector to add a shortcut in floating mode on homescreen or for apps that uses shortcut selector.
It adds a shortcut with the intent flag 0x00002000.
For?
For ROMs that make use of the intent flag 0x00002000.
Examples include Paranoid Android ROMs with Halo.
(This might work with OmniROM's MultiWindow but I need someone to confirm before I write it down. )
Downloads?
In Attachments. (Dates are in DDMMYY)
Backup Downloads from Google Drive
Open-source!
This module is open-source! Sources are found on my GitHub.
If you would like to help in the development, you may leave bug reports and development tips in this thread or (better still) fork and send pull requests

This app only makes shortcuts with the halo flag. It doesn't affect the launcher. It has probably been redrawing ALL the time but you only notice it now since it is floating and not fullscreen.
I never get redraws this app actually crashes my launcher so it has to restart and I only get this issue with this app

Is it the actual running of the app itself, or the launch of a halo shortcut created by this app... that is causing the redraw? What Launcher do you have and rom?

First thing I would try is downloading an alternative free launcher eg Go Launcher. Install, and do a quick test to see if a new Halo shortcut causes the same issue. Should take 5 minutes. Then if you still have the issue, then it's probably rom related. BTW, do you have any other rom features enabled that might be interfering? (eg Multi Window or something like that)
No nothing that would interfere although the room is heavily modded but floatifications works fine and open halo from notification also works I do get an occasional fc though had that problem since version 2.0 of xhalo appsi also works ok I don't really want a different launcher because of BlinkFeed but for trying purposes Ill try thanks for replying
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk
Is it possible to update this app to create shortcuts that point to "Shortcuts" in Android as well instead of just app shortcuts?
You know, the screen when u long press on the launcher and you get this page to create direct shortcuts to contacts, bookmarks, gmail labels etc.
Because it would be handy to create shortcuts that link to specific functions inside apps instead of having to launch the apps in windows mode and then navigating to the required functions i.e. shortcut to a specific whatsapp contact, specific settings screen.
Do consider it, or if anyone has a solution do let me know, thanks!
I hope the thanks received from zst123 means this request has been added to some to do list out there?
edit : oh man, another thanks. Don't tease me...SAY SOMETHING! Or should I keep posting to accumulate thanks?
how to check intent flag?
works great in s3 omega rom when using it as a launcher icon, or through glovebox.. BUT if you want to use LMT launcher that doesnt support system shortcuts but support tasker... launching tasker task--> autoshortcut plugin --> haloshortcut... doesnt work.. the app opens in fullscreen
Hey guys,
I posted this twice on Disqus on the XDA News Commenting but somehow it didn't show (internet failure?) and I'm typing this again.
I'm really lazy to retype, so in short, I created this in Sept in my XHFW thread in this post's attachments
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45669212&postcount=476
A few weeks ago, I improved it and posted it in this thread. However, a recently I saw this post on Google+
https://plus.google.com/117734680838440546478/posts/cbXCgnjTAwj
where Matthias Bidlingmeyer had created a similar app with similar name. That is is better than mine in the sense that it has the ability to choose individual activity for the chosen app. It coincidently was posted a few days before my thread was opened. I didnt't know it existed and of course didn't copy it. I hope this would clear things up before the "you copied me" fight starts. If I had known it existed, wouldn't you think I would also implement individual activity support? The other dev does deserve credit. This is purely just a coincidence (sadly)...
Great app

Works great on omnirom 4.4.2 for Nexus 10 (Tempest ROM omni-4.4-20131218-manta-TEMPEST )
It's not better if it doesn't do shortcuts. Seriously, how many here understand what each activity in each app does?

It has to do with the way the plugin handles the created shortcut. So I can't really help you in this

There is only one flag that is added and that is the halo flag. What flag are you trying to check?

See the attachments for a screenshot of his app. For example you could create a shortcut to go directly to the WifiSettings instead of the main Settings page when you have to do one extra step. An Activity is the proper Android term for a "page" (not really a page but I can't think of a better word)
