[Q] Dock Battery Mod - Asus Transformer TF700

I have changed the battery icon for the tablet (see attached) and was trying to change the keyboard/dock to the same icon. I know it has something to do with the Transformer.apk, but don't know how to change it. I have pulled the apk to mod it, but I am at a dead end. Does anyone know how I would change the dock battery?

I posted how to do this in the development section, page 2 near the bottom. I also sent you a pm per your request.
It is easy if you look at the files I posted and see the changes.

What I am trying to do is a little different than what you posted about. I tried following what you wrote up on. I am just not getting it. I can't get the dock battery icons to change. I am just missing something.

Did you change the framework-res.apk file? Dock icons are there.

Yes I did. I put the icons that I want in there, but it still shows the stock ones. I can't figure out what I am doing wrong.

Send me your framework-res.apk and I will look at what you have done.

Thanks for helping me out. Basically I am going for a dark red theme and have changed the color of the stock Asus battery.
Here is my framework-res.apk

The reason the 1% dock battery icons are not showing up is that you named them incorrectly.
It is important you download the .zip file I posted in my 1% battery post. The entire file structure is layed out including the name of the 1% battery icons and where they go. This also includes the names of the .xml battery scripts and where they go. One of the scripts is about 9kb and the other about 40kb. The dock battery icons have there own script/icons which is not the same name as the SystemUI script/battery icons.

I am not trying to get the 1% battery icons. I am simply trying to use the icons that I changed the color of. That is why I don't understand why it isn't working. I changed the color of the stock Asus battery icon and replaced it in the same folder.

The battery icons for the dock are in framework-res.apk: asus_ep_kb_battery_*.png, etc.

I have changed them to the colors I want, but the changes don't seem to work. Anywhere I saw the Asus keyboard battery icons I replaced them to be on the safe side, but nothing seems to work. I am at a loss.

Porting prime apps

i have started to port tf201 apps to our tfs and i think it will work since i got the battery widget and mynet to work on our tfs, so please share what you know about modifying apks and i will try to get filemanager systemui and other stuff over.
I put together an installable apk for the Asus MyWater2 (orca) wallpaper by pulling it from a system dump, deodexing it, signing it, and zip aligning it. The wallpaper installed and worked without issue on my TF101 since minimum supported API version for the wallpaper equates to Android 2.2
I used smali/baksmali to deodex the files from the system dump and instructions for signing and zip aligning can be adapted from the 2nd post in this thread.
To make installable do you have to sign and zipalign? I just deodexed and copied to system/app. Im having some problems deodexing some files, mycloud.apk.

Attached is an installable apk for the Asus Battery Widget from the Prime and a screenshot of it in action on my TF101 with dock (it's the one on the left). I pulled it from a Prime dump, deodexed it, signed it, and zipaligned it. Remember that you need to allow installation of non-Market applications (Settings -> Applications -> Unknown sources). If you download it straight to your TF101, remember that you need to use a File Manager to install it and not the Downloads application.
I'm really not too impressed by its looks and still prefer the one I created myself (on the right). If you're interested, my battery widget can be found over in this thread.
awe man i got them workin and i was about to post. i think i will change the colors a bit then pt in the market. i have made installable mynet by the way.

Is there any difference in the Supernote application? If so, is it possible to extract it from the Transformer Prime?

You keep talking about Mynet, but what actually changed with Prime on this app ?
i dont know really it looks different though

Checked the screenshot for the Prime's MyNet version.
The music, photo and video selection buttons are no longer on top. It now appears to be in a configurable drop-down menu below the server selection menu in the left column, and there's a search function next to the settings drop-down menu, and a new blue/black theme.

there are a few new apps in the 4.0.3 prime update
might be more difficult to port due to the ics framework but its probably worth a try
I was just thinking that. could anyone link me to a prime ics system dump?

A few apps run out of the box from this update on TF101 HC
Ever think that when we get ICS, odds are apps we share in common will probably be the same version/build as from the Prime?

Dock battery level status in ICS

I noticed on the Prime they have a battery icon for the dock as well as the tab in the status bar and in the notification menu, and since the Transformer has ICS and the new notification menu, should we have the dock battery? or do we need a dock firmware upgrade? or are the new Prime docks have something ours don't?
Does anyone have a dock battery level?
The ics for the transformer prime shows it. But not ours. Was just doing a side by side comparison with a friend's prime.

I'd rather have it in the status bar where it should be.. I think our docks may get a firmware update
The beta version of dual battery widget puts a second icon for the dock battery in the status bar. And it seems to be working OK after today's ICS update.

And you don't even have to have the widget on your desktop. I've gotten rid to it there, since it is redundant.

ICS Notification Panel

So recently when updating to ICS the Notification Panel is a bright bright blue and all the icons are blurry. I have tried 3 different ICS roms so far and they are all like that. Here is a screenshot of it. I'm not sure if it is meant to look like that or not, but it looks seriously out of place in my opinion...anyway if anyone could give some insight into this would be grateful
Edit: All Fixed nevermind
That is the Asus modded notification panel, you can turn it off and get the ICS defaulted in the Asus custom settings menu. As for the slight blur, mine looks the same as yours so I think it's normal.

dolphin browser issue

When reading through the forums using Dolphin browser I have a weird display issue. The text in the posts gets real faint like the opposite of bold but really light. Instead of the text black its like a light grey. No where to change this. Ideas?

I had this on stock browser ages ago. I fixed it by reverting to the 2010 theme on xda. Other themes seem to be overlaying something on top.
How do you revert to 2010?
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T using Tapatalk HD
Go to the bottom left of any page on xda, there you can choose you desired theme.
Had this weird thing also but figured it out myself:good:

Yeah, the new theme bugs out on essentially all browsers I've used thus far on the 700. Shame, because I must admit I do like the color palette. :highfive:

Changing clock, wifi, battery color

Does anyone know how to change the clock, wifi, battery, etc. color? I have searched and come up with some guides that say you need to change the systemui.apk. I have no experience doing anything like this. Does anyone have a detailed guide on how to do this? I really liked the ICS blue, but have grown tired of it and want to switch things up a bit.

If you do it wrong, you might brick your device on the first attempt. That is normal, it's a learning experience. Before you begin, make sure you know how to restore the previous state, or the factory ROM.
Yeah that's great. I searched from tapatalk and didn't see that. Thanks, I will give it a go.

Were you successful in your endeavors to change the clock font and/or color? I am interested in doing the same!
I was able to do it, but life got in the way and I couldn't continue to develop it. PM me if you have questions.
