[i9003][MOD] Remove Status Bar Clock

This mod will remove the time from the notification bar on your Galaxy S i9003.
YouR Phone Must Be Deodexed and Rooted for this Mod
Instructions:
1) First download smali-1.2.6.jar and baksmali-1.2.6.jar from here http://code.google.com/p/smali/downloads/list Rename them to just smali.jar and baksmali.jar.
2) You'll need to pull the services.jar from the /system/framework/ directory on your phone to your PC. Open the services.jar file for example with winzip, 7z, winRar, or whatever. Unzip the classes.dex file to a new folder and place the baksmali and smali file there too. After that open a new command window within that folder and run following line:
Code:
java -jar baksmali.jar -o out/ classes.dex
3) You'll have a new folder now called "out". Browse to "out/com/android/server/status" and open the file called StatusBarPolicy.smali with a text editor. I personally prefer "Notepad++".
4) Search for:
Code:
invoke-direct {p0}, Lcom/android/server/status/StatusBarPolicy;->updateClock()V
5) It should be under ".line 592". Now add this line underneath the line you just searched for from above:
Code:
invoke-virtual {p2, v3, v6}, Lcom/android/server/status/StatusBarService;->setIconVisibility(Landroid/os/IBinder;Z)V
6) Save the file.
7) Open a new command window within the folder you created before or maximize the same command window you used before and run this:
Code:
java -Xmx512M -jar smali.jar out/ -o edited-classes.dex
8) Now you'll have a new dex file called "edited-classes.dex". Rename the old dex file to classes_old.dex and rename the new file to "classes.dex".
9) Open again the services.jar file with any zip tool and overwrite the classes.dex file with the one just created.
10) Push the updated services.jar back to the /system/framework/ directory on your phone and set the file permissions to rw-r--r--. Reboot!
I am also sharing my services.jar file for those who wants this mod.
just replace it with your services.jar present in system/framework using ROOT EXPLORER

it depends on you whether you like the clock or not

Hi i would like to know if there is any way that i can disable the default battery icon? Cos i am already having another app that shows the battery percentage and thus would be redundant to have both. Thanks in advance!

Step 2:
Open the settings.apk with 7zip and go to res drawable-mdpi depending on your phone it could be also (HDPI or LDPI or XHDPI)
Step 3:
Scroll down to ic_settings_about.png and open that .png! check the size of your standard .png and look if they are the same size as the modded SGS3 style .png!
Step 4:
If they are not the same you must resize them!
If they are the same size copy all the Modded SGS3 icons inside of res drawable-mdpi depending on your phone it could be also (HDPI or LDPI or XHDPI)
Step 5:
after that go back to the .zip file you have downloaded and go into the framework-res.apk folder take all the .png's out of there and paste them into a folder on your desktop!

[GUIDE] Adding Extra Details in About Phone in Settings.apk [NOOB-FRIENDLY]

Hi guyz,
Today I want to share something about settings.apk mod….
Its about adding small details in about phone section…

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
NOTE: I have not copied it... Actually I was playing with some codes and got success. I don’t know if there is any guide about this… There is guides about this, but those are hard for newbies because those are complex and there is some work in strings.xml... But in my guide there are no work of that .... I think this is the easiest way.....
So lets start…
Requirments
Apktool, Java Runtime
NotePad++, 7zip
Knowledge about decompiling, recompiling
A little respect (must)
And your Settings.apk & framework-res.apk
Step 1..
Decompile your Settings.apk
Step 2..
Go to res > xml
Open device_info_settings.xml
Now Copy This Code
Code:
<Preference android:title=" TITLE " android:summary=" SUMMARY " style="?android:preferenceInformationStyle" />
And paste it before </PreferenceScreen>
See the Image… I have added 2 lines… And You can write there anything……
Step 3..
Now Recompile your settings
Step 4..
Open decompiled Settings folder then go to build/apk, there u will find AndroidManifest.xml file…
Now open original Settings.apk using 7zip then copy the META-INF folder and AndroidManifest.xml file…
paste both the files in build/apk folder, if asked to replace, click yes..
now go to a folder in settings folder named dist, there u will find Settings.apk which u compiled.....
now delete it. We never use the first Settings.apk that we compile, because we need to add the META-INF and AndroidManifest.xml files for signing purposes.
Once you have deleted the 1st compiled Settings.apk, return to the command prompt and again compile the Settings using this code
Code:
apktool b Settings
After it is compiled go to dist folder there u will find new and fresh compiled Settings.apk which u can use it…
Step 5..
Using Root Explorer push it into system/app folder and set permissions to rw-r-r-
That's it!
Credit goes to YOU if you get success :fingers-crossed:

Nice tut sir
