Now that we have s-off and permanent root -> battery percentage?

No framework-res.apk with circle battery percentage around? (like those from CM7) ??? Thank you!
-> I'm asking for a real battery percentage icon substitute... (no widget) I know there are a bunch of widgets around...

how would your theme work on stock roms when most of the apks are odex they must be de-odex to theme meaning how are changes going to take effect on the rosie

My theme will only work with deodexed roms.. I was assuming you guys are no longer on stock of course.

no im still on stock i dont see the need right now to go custom and start losing things that i already have working on stock. I check all the roms here and for me right now is a no go i wish soomeone would just deodex tmobile us so i can theme it a little not everybody want a custom rom at the moment hell im still enjoying your skins

As long as You save the stock apks and odex files, you can use my theme on stock also. Just back up the files, delete .odex file and replace apk (i.e systemui) with mine

Taskbar Menu

Can someone show me how I can personally change my top taskbar menu (if it's possible) and where can I find the themes for it?
Thanks.

It all depends what you're actually trying to do?
Just change a color? Change the pull down background? Add quickpanel toggles?

I flashed my phone back to stock rom and I just wanted the taskbar to look like the octane rom that I was running on before.

You can try pulling the framework-res.apk and systemui.apk from octane and replacing them in the appropriate spots in your current ROM as long as the rom you are on is deodexed. But it may,not work. Or, you can replace the .png files using 7zip and then replace those files with your new themed ones (less chance of fc or bootloop). But the second method is a bit more detailed.

[Q] ICS battery mod, how can I do this?

what are the files needed to be edited in order to make a circle battery mod?

Do you want to MAKE one from scratch or just install one? Which ROM are you running?

Id love to know how to do this as well. For me Id like to just modify an existing customized Rom files.
I actually tried this after hours of searching. And most seem to only talk abou modifying the SystemUI.apk by adding the 204 PNGs for the battery mode (for 1% accuracy) and also add the two modified battery XMLs. I recompiled the SystemUI.apk, injected it on the phone, set the right permissions and rebooted. I saw the battery icon change. But then 10mins later it was showing the stock battery icon again, then 10mins later I noticed it was showing the modified one again.
Im wondering why do folks mention only needing to change the SystemUI.apk when if you open the Framework-res.apk you will also see the same Battery PNGs and also see the same battery XMLs (but cannot read those in clear text).
Dont we have to modify both the Framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk? I think the answer is yes since the UOT Kitchen makes you upload both and sends you back both modified.
Im not too familiar with how to do the framework-res.apk. Btw Im using MHX's Superlite 5.0 ROM which I believe he modified one of those files to remove the carrier text from the status bar.

I used UOT Kitchen to change mine. All you do is pick the battery icon you want then upload your systemui.apk and framework-res.apk and wait for it to make it then download it to your sdcard. Then flash it in CWM.

Yea that worked fine when I was on Gingerbread even on NexusMod ROM. Thats what I did before.
Now on ICS (Superlite 5.1 ROM), I did the same thing, took the systemui.apk and framework-res.apk from superlite's rom file, uploaded them to UOT and did the battery mod, everytime it builds it, I get a SHTF error.
So then I tried to upload the stock leaked ICS systemui.apk and framework-res.apk (not modified by any ROM), and still same issue, get a SHTF error.
It dont seem to like the ICS based files Im giving it.

I posted one in the superlite dev thread. I'll be making more tonight.

Yeap saw that, Thanks again. Id love to see what you did in this that maybe I didnt do right in my own attempt. I added the 204 PNGs and then added these premade stat battery xml files I saw in the Galaxy S2 forum. I looked at yours (the stat battery xmls) but couldnt see them in clear text, they seem to be compiled so cant truly see whats in it.

Just decompiled it and now I can see your XML in clear text, be interesting for me to see what I did wrong, like I said I had mine working in and out.
Thanks again. This will help me in seeing where I went wrong on my initial attempt.

Took a look finally. My stat_sys_battery.xml and stat_sys_battery_charge.xml are identical to the ones you had in your mod. So that was done right. Any other files you modified (XML wise)?
Im still curious on why I see the same two XMLs in the Framework-res.apk and the same battery icons but modifications are not needed there. Almost seems like both are needed to be done.

I didn't mod anything besides systemui. Didn't even touch any other file. I only added the icons and edited the 2 xml's.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA

Good to know, I wonder if maybe the proper method is to also replicate these same changes in the framework-res.apk since I did a test and noticed UOT Kitchen modifies both and I see the same two XMLs appear identically betweenthe SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk. As as well as the same icon set in both.
Dixit

From what I understand it doesn't work with the kitchen for ics
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA

Right I got a feeling it dont work with ICS (the UOT Kitchen). But like I said on GB it modified both framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk and basically put the same changes in both. So there must be a reason it does that. That might be the reason why for brief moments I saw the standard battery icon and then sometimes the circle mod battery I put in there.
Dixit

Noob question - change battery icon?

I've never done it before but the UOT kitchen seems pretty straightforward. Except that XBSA's ROM is an img file.
So does anyone know how I can modify the icon to show a percentage? I don't want to use an app that clogs up my bar cos they close when you free up RAM.
Cheers

I'm not telling how to, just a suggestion: decompile SystemUI.apk and you will find the answer.
Sent from my LG-SU760 using xda premium

Ok found it. Do I need framework-res.apk as well? I will have a go at this later.
Edit - can't get it to work with UOT kitchen and don't fancy decompiling the apk and inserting the files manually.
Sent from my LG-SU760 using xda app-developers app

Use 7zip to open the apk as an archive delete old icons then copy the new icons ( by drag and drop method ) . If you do not have the icons you can get it from many themes or costume roms .
OR
you can use "Rom Tool Box" I think it's a famous app . Go to interface section and then choose "theme manager" do not choose "theme chooser" it's completely other thing . Then you will find many themes and icons for every thing .
But I use the manual method because I think it's more stable (does not make problem) do not trust apps or UOT Kichen , do it by your self .

Cheers, that's better than nothing but its ugly. I'll try 7-zip and/or ROM Tool Box this evening

ROM Toolbox didn't do it - said ROM isn't deodexed and also there were quite a few files missing.
7-Zip next I guess
Sent from my LG-SU760 using xda app-developers app

I changed the icons in framework-res.apk and nothing happened. I don't even know where the old icons are coming from now as they've been replaced and don't exist but they are still there in my status bar :/

Did you delete the old icons before copy ?? 7-zip does not replace it . Delete the old icons then copy the new icons .

Hit thanks button if I helped

I didn't delete them but it does seem to have replaced them.
I have something sort of working - I also changed the icons in SystemUI.apk and now my new icons are working. However, its still not perfect as the charging icons are still not changed and the increments are only every 10% or so. I think I'd need to edit some of the XML files.
I am going to try replacing the framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk files with ones from a GB ROM. Wish me luck :/
Edit
AND.........boot loop. Oh well, I will try something else

I had the same problem (increasment 5%) but at that time I get the framework-res.apk from a costum rom (King_3D_Rom) and I changed the icons and now It works perfectly .

I'm using the ICS rom. GB files caused me to boot loop and UOT kitchen doesn't work for this rom.
I do have it working now with the charge animation as well (kinda) but still got the 10% increments.
Edit: its not bad though. Much better than stock at least. Increments are more like 5% or less. Less than 2MB so an easy install. Charge animation is still screwy though.

This works as advertised but I sort of like to know when Wifi is connected. This also removes the % battery mod that is in trick droid.

ok this is the outcome of my test if you flash a battery mod it wil not remove the fix but if you flash something else that mess with systemui.apk it might bork the fix
only flash specific battery mods that only change battery and nothing else

Anyone find a battery only mod to get the percent back and not break the fix?

So does this mod just basically add the AT&T 4G LTE icons into the systemUI.apk, since most of the other mods are standard ROM mods already? Wouldn't this be the same as just flashing rayford85's vrtheme icons, since the SystemUI.apk is basically the stock Sense version?
