[MOD] Skip music tracks with Volume buttons (JB 4.1.2) - RAZR i Themes and Apps

Finally!! After thousands of boot loops I got it working. There are several .diff's for implementing this mod in android.policy.jar, but what I forgot: this works only on a completely deodexed ROM and mine was only half deodexed. It is possible to run deodexed and odexed system apk's side by side, but you must not(!) run a deodexed framework with odexed apk's - this was my learning curve
Summary: If you are on a fully deodexed 4.1.2 JB ROM (I am on 91.2.26001 Retail.en.EU), simply copy the android.policy.jar to /system/framework, set the permissions to rw-r--r-- and reboot.
MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP BEFORE, just in case!!
If you want to incorporate this into your ROM (Omar?), I attached the needed smali's too.
If you are on an odexed ROM, here is a short help to deodex yourself:

Enjoy skipping music tracks in your pocket by long pressing volume without turning your screen on!
UPDATE: added CWM package for easy flashing.

Installed it right away! It works awesomely well on my phone I'm using PIlama 0.6.
If you keep on modding the stock rom like this we won't need to port CM. At least I'm not missing it
Keep on your great work. My Razr I is now as fun as my Nexus S had been before

Too many.
There are some tutorials here at XDA, just search. The thing is, you have to adapt the variables, that's a little bit research though.
Easiest way would be: Extract original android.policy.jar and compare it to my mod, then you'll see the differences.

The only problem that has to samsung and wanted to carry the Razr HD XT925 and compare when there is a big difference in the lines.
more okay, no problem.

Not sure I understand what you mean...
Just try it: Take your own PhoneWindowManager.smali and compare it to my mod, that was the way I did it in addition to read several different How-To's.

Awesome!

This flash will work on my 982.50.20.xt890.brasil.en.br without problems? I miss this function badly...

Is your system deodexed? Then you may try it, but do a Nandroid backup before, so that you can roll back easily.
If it works, tell us, if not, tell us
But deodexed system is mandatory!

Hummm, I saw on Link2SD and the system Apps are all odexed. Then no go for me I think.

You can deodexed your system alone.

I do like it very much. But the thing is the roms I use doesn't have it when u choose the stock look theme provided by thrm, (sometimes their themeing is ugly and Vey colorful ! I prefer stock big and simple notification icons)
So a separate CRT zip would be a great help, I think I'm not the only one wishing for this

For the Gingerbread ROM's i always did em myself using this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24370886#post24370886
But since ICS came its harder because if you only modify the framework.res.apk file you end up with CRT effect and straight after it the screen blinks and then goes off.
For ICS you also need to mod some other files but my android skills are like zero so im stuck too....

this is the correct link, I've figured that i'll just add "l" at the end. I haven't tried this yet but if you do, can you please report back if it's working? Most of the crt-off mods will make your screen flicker right when turning it off(i.e. the screen will turn on for a split second after locking/turning off the device)hope it doesn't happen on this one

Doesn't work on CleaNote V5 .
Right after the boot splash, the screen goes black. Need to go into Recovery by force (3 button combo) and reflash the ROM...

Why should we put it in the internal SD? I keep all my flashables on the external SD (Serioux 16GB class 6) and never had any troubles...
Some people also recommended using the internal to flash from rather than external, on the Motorola ATRIX.
Any particular reason why? Scientific explanation

Just as I said,did it in hurry so might have something wrong but there is nothing to do I fear.just a change of bool to trigger crt.Just try to remove the lib file from /system/lib in the zip and flash.Lets see if It has caused the problem.

So Sammy puts so much work in the frameworks for every (small, I'd say) update? CRT animation was flickering even on 4.0.3 (XXLQ3 - RocketROM) and 4.0.4 LRK and LR6. I know CRT is tricky on ICS in general or so devs say?

I'm now on SVA ROM not alliance ROM. I like his ROM but hate AVA theme. So I wanted to switch back to Stock look. That's why I asked those two files.
In SVA SystemUI is in /system/app/ . I just create a CWM file to copy these two files to relevant folders. But after flashing it I got a bootloop. Actually what I noticed is, Framework-res you provide and he provide are different. That's why I asked that question.
I'm actually not a ROM or MODs dev. So I might did some mistakes when flashing.
Actually I'm not 100% satisfied with current situation as well because even I got the stock look but now S Pen is not working ( S Pen is kind of getting stuck ). I don't know WHY

I think you could ask in his thread for stock theme as to theme his rom he might do change some files not only 1 or 2 of them
I do not use SVA rom but believe he has the option for choosing theme in the last release

MOD) animation lag fix?

i privately mod - theme all of my android devices. both the s4 and the optimus g pro lags like hell as we all know. we can either blame hardware or the software. im going with the software. the permanent fix will be custom roms and kernels but until then i was digging through the systemUI and framework-res and i think i found the source of some of the lag.
it's in the framework-res / animations folder. in here you can see standard animation xml's but also touchwiz ones that were added by samsung for all of the new gimmicky features and gestures. so i performed an experiment. i opened up my framework and added aosp animations from a cm10.1 rom, added the res back to the apk and pushed it to my device. BOOM, lag gone for the most part and smoother animations. before this i tried everything including deodexing, debloating and turning off all features.
i just thought i post my findings for the devs and anyone who feels like getting their hands a bit dirty.
enjoy! :good:
EDIT:
http://www.mediafire.com/?mbop6l3yow612vt
here is the modded framework-res. push via adb to system/framework and restart your device. this is a stock, unmodded framework other than what i replaced with the animations. this is a deodexed apk, so don't try on any odexed rom. THIS IS FOR AT&T ONLY!
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU BLOW UP YOUR DEVICE. BACKUP YOUR CURRENT FRAMEWORK-RES BEFORE PUSHING THE NEW ONE IN CASE YOU HAVE ANY ISSUES.
IF this works the mods can move this to the dev section.

Yeah it sounds like he didn't set the permissions on the .apk before booting.
For anyone else who wants to try this, copy the framework-res.apk to your /sdcard (if you're using adb and the framework-res.apk is on your C:\ drive, use the following adb command without the quotes: "adb push C:\framework-res.apk /sdcard") and then use the following adb commands:
Code:
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
mv /system/framework/framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk.bak
cp /sdcard/framework-res.apk /system/framework
chmod 644 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
rm data/dalvik-cache/*
reboot
This saves a copy of your original framework-res.apk as "framework-res.apk.bak", in the event that it goes wrong it's just a simple adb command away to revert back to your old version.
I added the animations from the OP's mod to the framework that I use, which comes from DocBarebones' theme add-on for the i9505/i9500 S4 variant. Everything has a dark/gray tint, as I always like to black out my phone as much as possible.
Here is the file, just push it using the same method(s) above. Works great for me!
http://www.mediafire.com/?twg26703t0g6mu5
so over 600 views on the thread. can anybody confirm it at least pushed and worked correctly without bootlooping? i just want to make sure its ok to keep the download link up.

[REQ] SystemUI for Xperia E

Hi, everyone! I don't know if I am doing this right but here it goes...
I have a Xperia E, and I am so, but so done of that green battery that is useless and even don't tell me the percentage of remaining battery!
I flashed to ICS and modded the SystemUI, it was an awesome mod, with transparency and battery's percentage.
Why I changed again to JB? Because of better compatibility with apps (more recent) and a sudden hope that Sony will launch a new update.
So recently I had an idea, but my knowledge about apks is very low and I don't know how to program Java and XML languages.
I installed an app, GravityBox, that do the job, but it occupy RAM and CPU time.
If there is someone interested on this and want to do, teach or help, please tell because it will benefit everyone and maybe people will understand how Android works and maybe it will work like an introduction to modding.
First of all is the percentage, if possible I wanted to look like the screenshot.
I'm interested 2 if someone can teach or guide,refer.

there's no risk anyways...since your just editing the apk's ....(worst that could happen is 'no system ui ')
if you were tweaking kernels and that sort of stuff it would be risky...
OK good luck!
Begining SystemUI
So I started doing the battery icons, more like the screenshots, but now I have a doubt, if someone knows this please reply.
When I installed GravityBox the percentage does not change size, I mean the font size, and for this the icons should be bigger that the actual 21x18 pixels.
Now I am at the 36% icon, possibly I can do all icons today and compile to .apk again.
I'll do the tests to not endanger other equipments.
SystemUI testing
I have good and bad news.
The good is it worked once but with fails, don't ask me why because I don't know, I just followed the TUT.
The bad is that I got this "New Android Interface".

Well since I can't use ClockworkMod properly because I can't unlock the damn bootloader, I have an odexed ROM, but when I had ICS it wasn't deodexed and installed the mod simply by removing the .odex file, I think it would be the same procedure.
The SystemUI I modded is from my actual ROM, simply and for now I just made new SystemUI icons and changed the respective .xml files.
I don't know what I did wrong and why it only worked when I put the modded SystemUI on the system/app folder.

talk to nsdcars5 or matspunt about it.....
but first ...your bootloader...do something about it
I'll see what can I do, I have to call my carrier to see how much it costs to enable bootloader unlock.
I'll also contact these users you indicated me, maybe my problem is very small. :thumbup:

Unlocking the boot loader is different from carrier unlocking! If your status says yes it's completely free.
Please Google for guides, because right now I'm on my phone.

It's says no... I already have seen guides and forums about this and they say what you say.
Sorry for everyone, I did not have the time to check the news on my thread.

How did you make your stock ROM deodexed? Just removed the odex files right?

No! Don't do that! You'll just have to flash the thing again.
@Grimlock007 Just asking, since when do I have experience in SystemUI mods? Only time I did one was for my last phone, for which GravityBox didn't exist (*cough* Gingerbread *cough* 256 MB RAM *cough*).
New Idea
I got an idea, when I had ICS it was also odexed and I could mod.
So the steps for me were:
1 - Copy the original SystemUI into a folder (backup)
2 - Copy modded SystemUI to the app folder
3 - Reboot
4 - Delete odex file
5 - Reboot
6 - Done
I was thinking in a person who has deodexed SystemUI and if this person transfer to me.
I think it would work, basically I think it's the same process, even for modding.

i was talking about the .odex delete part (i think)
Hi everyone, again!
Finally I found something interesting with gravitybox.
The screenshot without the status bar is like the expanded desktop from gravitybox.
I'll take a look again on my systemui configurations and soon will dispose to everyone to use, see and modify freely and at own risk even if it is incomplete by my side. I want this to be a community project for xperia e and by xperia e users.
I still have two questions...
How do I make not expanded desktop?
Why nobody sent me an Deodexed SystemUI?...

Hello fellow Note 5 users
Welcome to NoTe 5 "LiViNg oN tHe EdgE"
I have put together a simple stock-deodexed-debloated Rom.zip i put together myself
It is based off N920T C015 base. Thanks to @TEKHD for the use of his stock deodexed base!
I am not a Developer, im just a flash junky who finally made his own stockish rom with the additional features i liked and wanted to share it!
This is my 1st Rom I've ever posted on XDA, so be nice LOL and any help will be much appreciated:thumbup::
You are more than welcome to use any part of this Rom, just give credit to myself and anyone else mentioned please
This Rom will most likely not be updated, but with help from others with mods and other cool stuff we can add on the way, i will be more than happy to add if possible! No promises LOL
I AM IN NO WAY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS TO YOUR PHONE! SO FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK! AND ALWAYS MAKE A BACK UP!

Thank you sir! I just wanted to make a stockish rom for our device with of course edge features and a few extras! And let the user mod it out the way they want to!
Well once I manage to get recompiling working and figured out I'll be glad to mod this to my liking but I'm still learning and can't seem to figure out why I can't recompile :/

Can I ask how you got floating messages to work? I've been trying to a while now. I found the correct updated airmessage and proxy apk's from s6 stuff and I know the csc entries but haven't found the correct secmms apk that won't crash. I'm downloading your rom now and am going to tinker with it some but wanted to see if you knew what needed to be edited in the mms apk after decompile or if not at all. Just trying to learn some more myself and thanks for putting this together I always need a solid base to fall back on.

What are you using to decompile/recompile? I use BDFreak's_2.0.2 APK Tool. He's got all the stuff you need inside and its a gui instead of the ol command line int. I did a lot of cool stuff on my note 3 with systemUI animations but haven't done anything yet on 5.1.1. Gonna try some stuff this weekend though.

I used tickle my android had a nice gui and everything else as well problem is in most steps I've ready I'm not sure if I need to install res-framework or the systemUI to my computer so I could actually recompile at the end! I Even tested recompiling something I had not edited period just decompiled so I could recompile and still no go maybe if I try that tool it may work? Not sure I'll give it a go in a few though and see what happens! If that fails then I guess it's time to make a thread and ask the pros ? since my Dumbass can't seem to get it lol

Yea man, the tool I use goes install frameworks, res and TouchWiz, then install systemui, then decompile, edit, them recompile. Also remember to move the original meta inf and android manifest to the new one before recompile.
I'll try some settings and system ui tweaks for this rom this weekend and share anything worth sharing.
