Change the topic too (no offense)

Hi Manoo,
Thanks for sharing, always good to see addons, tweaks and new ROMs.
Nevertheless, some questions:
Isn't this just a set of apk's? Why use the whole RC7u1 script for this?
Also, what did you change in the following components (they are all different than the ones included in RC7u1):
boot.img
superuser.apk
su
I don't think any of these new apk's need other boot.img, superuser or su, right?
Regards,
Nika.

Idd, I think nikagl is right, what does boot.img and su.apk do there?
Also you should do the following stuff to make this post more attractive:
1. Add tags [ADDON] or [MOD] to the title. like: [ADDON][CRANIUM] - Manoo's addon for Cranium v7 -
2. Use some formatting for your post, like this:

i had to make a flashable zip since the some of the apks (live weather widget from samsung and digital clock) could not be simiply installed or even by placing it in the system/apps so i made this flashable zip
As for the components i did not change any of them

Can other rom use this addon too?

1)R u sure Polaris Office works?its depends on a specific library,which u haven't included.
2)*Launcher
U didnt add IncrediControl and No-Frills CPU control!They are a must

i will add that in my next release and also i will include the lib files for polarises office also i will include lp sense in it and some screenshot but i have exams coming up so i will make a release sometime later

Yes.its version 22;
I just made flashable zip and a little changes!

What are the little changes you made.
I think its against the rules to post something without giving credit. And its easier to install the app via .apk and google play then via a zip.

[MOD][7-2-2015][Modded caller app (banners free)][Lollipop 5.0 - 5.0.1]

Hi guys,
I just wanted to share you edited caller app from Lollipop leak (N9005XXUGBNL8).

I hope you like it.

Hi,
You can use it on official deodexed ROMs.
If you mean official Odex then probably you can use it too but need to remove odex file and ARM folder (if exist).

I confirm it works on odex rom too.. :victory:
Official one for sure.. No need to delete any odex file or arm folder-there aren't any to delete..
:highfive:
Please, can you revert back the background color of last talked info because as you can see in the attachment-user picture makes it hard to read the text without the background image..
Also, if possible, please replace the dial pad 'water drop' should with the file in the attached zip-it'll be SOOOOOOOOO great of you..
I hope you understood my request.. :fingers-crossed:

Hi,
Here is the modded apk.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/kcogmix32evozui/No_banners_Lollipop_n9005_TheTAMAS.zip?dl=0
I use only dark background pics so thats I made it white transparent.
About dial tone you need to change touch_ripple.ogg from SecContacts_Phone_OSup.apk
You can do it simple with Zip or Rar. No need to decompile (I think).

For some strange reason-this file isn't working..
I tried deleting, over-writing, cut-paste, wipe Dalvik cache, everything that I could think of.. Other person receives call but I don't get to see anything going on, on my end.. Used Flight Mode toggle to disconnect the call..
And I didn't get the 2nd parta your reply 'zip or rar'..

Hm.
Try this one:

For changing touch sound you need to go to:
/system/priv-app/SecContacts_Phone_OSup/SecContacts_Phone_OSup.apk
transfer to PC open with winrar and change the touch_ripple.ogg with yours.

It's working now.. w0.ot :victory:
But the latter part regarding rar/zip didn't.. It force crashes the Contacts app
Please check the attachments
The zip contains the modified apk and the related ogg file
Fyki, I don't know how true it is-I read on XDA long time ago that the sound files are present in the phone apk and not the contacts apk
I tried changing the files at that time too-it gave force crash too.. :laugh:
The reason why I'm still hopeful is because I reckon that zip/rar may not be the right way to do so.. :fingers-crossed:

@TheTAMAS
Try this:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/cxg7aka1cwlti0n/touch_sound.zip?dl=0
It's DeOdexed.
If you have problems remove the Odex file and ARM

There's no related odex file or arm folder but the icon isn't showing up (maybe it has something to do with compression type like best, store, normal)
Please check the attachment..
The app won't even appear forget force crash or running..

What ROM do you run?
Also please check the permissions on the apk.
Sometime it's not set correctly, that's why icon is missing.

Just a question, what is the method for reverting back to Echoe Rom v23 default dialer with full image? I have yours now which I really prefer, but I would like to toggle back just to compare the difference. Than you.

Just extract LegacyInCallUI.apk from your ROM's zip and replace in phone with correct permissions.

Thank you man.. Yours is by far the better option. I can't see how anyone can use the convoluted stock dialer.

[Q] Hey guys, I need some advice please

What is the best way to decompile Apks? Is apk tool the best option? As i feel like it's a complicated tool.......
And is there any way to decompile Apks and edit xmls on android without using a computer?
Another think is that i am thinking about making some kind of rom for our device, so just want to know the basics for doing this(making a flashable zip - modifying SystemUI - Framework).....
My rom is not going to be such a huge development because i am still a starter,so i am thinking about making a rom that contains all of the awesome things that other developers made ........
It will be based on one of the custom roms available,and for now, this is what i think it will contain(Xperia Z3 Apps by strayder~007,smart social camera, working sound enhancements,one of the cool frameworks,Xperia lollipop firmware Icons already included........etc).......
You should know that I will never use any of the ports that others made without their permission.....

Please let me know your opinion!! Don't read and just leave without replying......
If anyone wants to help me, let me know, i will start building my rom after 17 /6......
But i need your help starting from know......
The first step is knowing how make a flashable zip right?

Ok thanks for your advice,and about the rom, it will be based on an already built custom rom by someone else with some apps ported by others and some small modifications by me, just to make sure it won't lead troubles.
Would you like to help me with flashable zip?
I will be ready when you are ..
And about your phone, what happened with it?
Is it working now? How did it brake?

1) Best way to decompile apk files is to decompile them using Advanced APK Tools (this tool is specially made for Xperia software)
2) To make ROM you need
* Rooted Device with CWM installed.
* Build Version of the Deodexed Stock Backup / base ROM should be same as build version of your Device.
* Deodexed Stock System / Any base ROM
* You can edit SystemUI.apk, Home.apk, framework.jar, framework_res.apk,build.prop,settings.apk other system apps and files, Media Folder, Bootanimation.zip file, you can add more apps and animation and tones etc and what else you want to... depends upon your creativity.
* Tools Required : Advanced APK Tools(java should be installed to use this tool) , Photoshop, BootAnimation Creator, Notepad++, Windows Image Re-sizer, 7-Zip etc.
* Meta-INF folder which you can get from any existing ROM, boot.img which you can get from CWM backup of your device.
* Firmware ftf file and Wmshua Tool for in case you get wrong with your device.
* Permission from the OP of the Threads from where you get the Raw Material and also give Credits to them.

Nice guid tho. But to get the best you've to restart twrp once. thats why it isnt covering the side bar.

I tried many times ... Restarting twrp after applying themes... But it didnt worked for me ??
