[MOD][GUIDE]Enable Ripple Effect Samsung ICS ROMs - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]
While trying to find any hidden features Samsung may have kept hidden in the stock ROM for my Galaxy Ace II X (GT-S7560M), I found some smali code for the lockscreen options, that removed the option to toggle the ripple effect! If you don`t know what the ripple effect is, view this video. It replaces the stock Samsung slide unlock with what looks like a body of water. When you touch the screen, it makes a ripple in the water. Anyways, on to the mod.
I do not know if this mod will work on other Samsung ICS ROMs. All this mod does is make the option appear, by deleting a line of code (that makes the toggle not there). You can be on either an odexed or deodexed ROM, but the SecSettings.apk should be from a deodexed ROM, to make the process a lot easier. You can reodex the SecSettings.apk easily using this app. I`m assuming that you know the basics of decompiling and recompiling .apk files. I am in no way responsible for any damage done to your hardware. Let`s start:
--> Decompile SecSettings.apk (I use apktool)
--> Navigate to /smali/com/android/settings
--> Open LockScreenSettings.smali with your preferred text editor (I use Notepad++)
--> Search `mRippleEffect`, and search until you find the line with `mRippleEffect` that is above a line with the phrase `removePreference` in it.
--> Remove 4 lines - that `removePreference` line, and the 3 lines above it.
--> Save, recompile, push to /system/app/.
--> Decompile framework-res.apk
--> Navigate to /res/values
--> Open bools.xml
--> Search `config_isWaterRippleEnabled`
--> Change value from `false` to `true`
--> Save, recompile, push to /system/framework/
--> Change the permissions to 0644 (rw-r--r--)
--> Reboot, and enjoy!
An example of which lines to remove (taken from my SecSettings.apk, so code may differ slightly):
Code:
invoke-virtual {p0}, Lcom/android/settings/LockScreenSettings;->getPreferenceScreen()Landroid/preference/PreferenceScreen;
move-result-object v5
iget-object v8, p0, Lcom/android/settings/LockScreenSettings;->mRippleEffect:Landroid/preference/CheckBoxPreference;
invoke-virtual {v5, v8}, Landroid/preference/PreferenceScreen;->removePreference(Landroid/preference/Preference;)Z
You should find the option to toggle the ripple lockscreen under Security > Lock screen options. Make sure that swipe unlock is enabled so you can access the Lock screen options.
You can also enable some other hidden lockscreen settings (like the Information Ticker, Camera Quick Access, Wakeup Command which requires S Voice, et cetera depending on whether or not Samsung has chosen to include certain features in the ROM. I can`t guarantee that there`ll be no bugs if you`re trying to enable another hidden option) by following this general method (of deleting code that is telling the device to hide the option). If you have any problems, questions, or comments, post them here! If you choose to include this mod in your ROM, please give me some thanks!
Can u tell me what is size of apk u got after recompiling.I got both apk are less in size by 6 mb than stock one.thanks

There isn't a specific size, but it should be close to the size of the original apk. Have you used apktool before? You have to replace the AndroidManifest.xml and the META-INF folder with the ones from the original apk in this case. Make a backup of your stock ROM in case you get into a bootloop when you push the two modified apks to their respective locations. Set their permissions as rw-r-r (chmod 0644). If you still have problems afterwards, let me know and I'll willingly help you out.

The most important tool in Android development has by far got to be reading error messages/logcat. Paste the complete wall of text from when you recompile with apktool. Also, which apk is the one that're you're having issues with? framework-res.apk or SecSettings.apk? And before you decompile either, you have to "apktool if" (command to install a framework) framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk (found under /system/framework/), with a path that directs apktool to the apk.

followed instructions given
you got to edit the .bat of modtool to get the apks signed
it is explained in a post in the modtool thread search for /%apk%/
as i am lazy i put the signed apks in the zip of pmp_u_5.7.4 update package (replaced them)
installed through cwm et voila now it ripples

Hey, trying hard to port CM 11 to Galaxy S Duos. Just need the Network working and dual-SIM... Further details are HERE. JUST take a look
@Codename13 So I'm trying to re-enable it with a GT S7560M like you have, however, when opening LockScreenSettings.smali, there are no instances of mRippleEffect in the file. I'm using this method of extracting the files from the APK, what am I doing wrong?

A. Where'd you get the files from? Mod Pack II X has this already, so if the files are from there then that's why you can't find mRippleEffect instances.
B. Did you properly import the framework-res and the twframework-res with the decompiler tool?

A. I took the files directly from my phone. I'm on stock, without Mod Pack II X installed.
B. The instructions there said the TW framework to import was "framework_Res.apk", however it's different on my device (framework-res.apk) so I didn't. I'll try importing that one and re-decompile it and see how it goes.

Hey guys Tanvir here,As the thread title says I am modifing the nougat touchwiz launcher using Apktool 2.2.2. here are the steps i'm doing: 1. Modified the (res/values/dimens.xml) file and edited the size of the icon labels of 4x4 grid and resize the icon 48.0dp to 55.0dp of 4x5 grid. 2. Recompiled it. 3. Signed it with (SignApk) don't remember where i downloaded from. 4. Copied modded signed file to (system/Priv-app/TouchWizHome_2016C) and set right permissions (rw-r-r) using root explorer and rebooted device. After reboot getting fc (TouchWizHome has stopped). What excatly I want to modify? Reduce the size of labels of 4x4 grid size. Increase the size of icons but not label size of 4x5 grid size. And and make grid 5x5 to grid size of 4x6 with smaller label size. Experts here please help me.

Apktool.jar common errors and solutions
As I'm no longer modding, this thread will not be updated anymore. Please refer to apktool issues https://github.com/iBotPeaches/Apktool/issues?q=is:issue++ and discussions https://github.com/iBotPeaches/Apktool/discussions for latest infomation
Since many got apktool.jar errors and don't know how to search or solve themself, I decided to explain and provide solutions here with links to Github. I have a friend who sometime can help me with this.
I will do my best to get much info. Feel free to post your thoughts
Know your error:
There’s a wide range of error messages you may encounter when decompiling and compiling your app. Depending on the kind of error you encounter, apktool.jar will always display the error message. Spotting error messages is easy
For example this log:
Code:
I: Using Apktool 2.4.1
I: Smaling smali folder into classes.dex...
I: Smaling smali_classes2 folder into classes2.dex...
I: Building resources...
W: D:\xxx\AndroidManifest.xml:15: Tag <uses-permission> attribute name has invalid character ' '.
brut.androlib.AndrolibException: brut.common.BrutException: could not exec (exit code = 1): [C:\Users\evildog1\AppData\Local\Temp\brut_util_Jar_2200487015856364895.tmp, p, --forced-package-id, 127, --min-sdk-version, 19, --target-sdk-version, 28, --version-code, 19227, --version-name, 4.1.1, --no-version-vectors, -F, C:\Users\evildog1\AppData\Local\Temp\APKTOOL3877124333918122178.tmp, -e, C:\Users\evildog1\AppData\Local\Temp\APKTOOL2736431752124554942.tmp, -0, arsc, -I, C:\Users\evildog1\AppData\Local\apktool\framework\1.apk, -S, D:\xxx\res, -M, D:\xxx\AndroidManifest.xml]
If you think could not exec is your error, it's actually not, the real error is actually a 'warning'
Code:
W: D:\APK Easy Tool\1-Decompiled APKs\xxx\AndroidManifest.xml:15: Tag <uses-permission> attribute name has invalid character ' '
The good thing it tells you which line it occured AndroidManifest.xml:15:. it's line 15 in AndroidManifest.xml
This was caused by a space in a permission tag. Removing it will fix the compiling error

It's not always a simple fix. This always depending
Check the APK file:
Sometimes APK is obfuscated in many ways.
Open the APK using 7-zip and WinRar and see if the first classes.dex is smaller than 500 KB or way bigger than 10 MB. If so, it a sign it's encrypted. Decompiling and compiling the big dex file will result in a smaller size and it will fail to decrypt due to missing encrypted block
Decompile and check if smali files and codes are obfuscated. This is an example of Netflix app that is obfuscated
Don't ask me how to break protected APK, I'm not a reverser so I can't help you with it.
Troubleshooting:
Sometime those troubleshooting tricks helps fixing errors. Please try one or more of the following below
- If you are using any 3rd party GUI tools, please try the actual apktool.jar with CMD first
- Use latest version of apktool.jar: https://ibotpeaches.github.io/Apktool/ and test
- If you are using latest version, try use older version of apktool.jar. Sometimes it can mitigate the issue
- Clear framework apktool empty-framework-dir --force and decompile the APK again.
- Decompile APK with --only-main-classes (Only disasemble dex classes in root (classes[0-9].dex). Prevents disasemble dex from assets folder) (apktool 2.4.1 and up only)
- Decompile APK with --no-res if you are only editing Java (smali) (--no-res will prevent the decompile of resources. This keeps the resources.arsc intact without any decode.)
- Decompile APK with --no-src if you are only editing the resources (xml) (--no-src will prevent the disassembly of the dex file(s). This keeps the apk dex file(s) and simply moves it during build.)
- Compile with --use-aapt2 (Use the aapt2 binary instead of appt)

When I change the Minimum SDK Version using ApkTool. The apk it's Crashing.
Just a heads-up. If you like modifying Android core files (like framework.jar) on Android 10 or greater (API 29+) using apktool 2.6.1 it's not going to work so nicely even if it doesn't bomb on an error. Code: Error occurred while disassembling class Landroid.util.proto.HapiProto; - skipping class java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 6 at org.jf.dexlib2.HiddenApiRestriction.getAllFlags(HiddenApiRestriction.java:108) It will make a mish-mash of the new hidden API modifiers (whitelist, greylist, greylist-max-o...) @iBotPeaches has this already in sight and is trying to resolve it. https://github.com/iBotPeaches/Apktool/issues/2918 On a bit of a tangent, in the interim I tried the "nuclear option". I was working on a framework.jar and couldn't "round-trip" it, so I edited out all the hidden API modifiers. It builds fine, but the logcat was a train wreck. Anybody know why? Edit: I gave up on nuking all hidden API modifiers. apktool d works fine so I can disassemble at least, but I don't think there are any options to show the file addresses of the instructions. So I wrote a work-in-progress to disassemble with file addresses: Code: C:\>dexdump classes.dex /cKeyboardEntryMap /mgenerateMap KeyboardEntryMap 002eebec generateMap 002eebfc const-string/jumbo 002eec02 invoke-static 002eec08 move-result-object ... 002eec62 invoke-interface 002eec68 goto 002eec6a return-void Then I just need some judicious hex editing to nops or return-void.
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassCastException: class brut.androlib.res.data.value.ResStringValue cannot be cast to class brut.androlib.res.data.value.ResIntValue (brut. androlib.res.data.value.ResStringValue and brut.androlib.res.data.value.ResIntValue are in unnamed module of loader 'app') Anyone know anything about this?
