This mod is originally inspired by evilisto... please visit his thread and shot him some thanks.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So let's start our tutorial of today
For this mod, we will modify 2 files; SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk
First download the resources from here.
A) SystemUI.apk
1. Decompile SystemUI.apk by APK-Multi Tool.
2. Inside Recent_Mod.zip there is three files; status_bar_recent_item.xml and status_bar_recent_panel.xml, copy them to SystemUI\res\layout-port folder; and nyandroid11.png move it to SystemUI\res\drawable-nodpi folder
3. Go to SystemUI\res\values\bools.xml and change:
Code:
<bool name="config_recents_thumbnail_image_fits_to_xy">[B][COLOR="Red"]false[/COLOR][/B]</bool>
to:
Code:
<bool name="config_recents_thumbnail_image_fits_to_xy">[B][COLOR="Blue"]true[/COLOR][/B]</bool>
4. Go to SystemUI\res\values\colors.xml and change:
Code:
<color name="status_bar_recents_app_label_color">[B][COLOR="Red"]#ffffffff[/COLOR][/B]</color>
to:
Code:
<color name="status_bar_recents_app_label_color">[B][COLOR="Blue"]#ff555555[/COLOR][/B]</color>
5. Go to SystemUI\res\values\drawables.xml and change:
Code:
<item type="drawable" name="status_bar_recents_app_thumbnail_background">[B][COLOR="Red"]#88000000[/COLOR][/B]</item>
to:
Code:
<item type="drawable" name="status_bar_recents_app_thumbnail_background">[B][COLOR="Blue"]#ffe0e0e0[/COLOR][/B]</item>
6. Recompile your finished SystemUI.apk
B) framework-res.apk
1. Decompile framework-res.apk by APK-Multi Tool
2. Go to framework-res\res\values\dimens.xml and change thumbnail height and width size to:
Code:
<dimen name="thumbnail_height">160.0dip</dimen>
Code:
<dimen name="thumbnail_width">240.0dip</dimen>
3. Recompile your finished framework-res.apk
and that's it :laugh: ... Enjoy
N.B: You can use your own Recent window, just name it nyandroid11 and copy it to SystemUI\res\drawable-nodpi

For people who want to install the pre-made mod, I made 2 flashable files according to where SystemUI is located inside your installed ROM
Download link:
| [system] Framed Recent app mod.zip |
(MD5Checksum: edfec47e818f6d9a01f81ba2cceb521d)
| [preload] Framed Recent app mod.zip |
(MD5Checksum: 7c3e1fbdd0137564151054698561610c)
N.B: These files in flashable zip are extracted from my GloryROM v4.5 which is based on ThaiDai multi-languge ROM from official JB ROMs (XXLSZ, DDLSC, JPLSB, DXLSE... etc). Wth this pre-made flashable files, you will have stock status bar and stock battery looking.. The only extra you will have is lock and recent apps button in notification panel.. So flash on your own risk​

3Minit Battery Mod

{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
This mod allows you view over 1070 battery type and counting from various users. With a single click the battery will download and set itself on to your status bar.
But as stated don't worry about you storage space being used by thousands of useless icons as they are all on my server and only downloads the type you use.
1.Install app.
2.Decompile SystemUI.apk and navigate to: res/layout/status_bar.xml
3. Look for:
Code:
<com.android.systemui.BatteryMeterView android:id="@id/battery" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_marginBottom="0.33000004dip" android:layout_marginStart="5.0dip" />
Change to:
Code:
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.policy.MinitBattery android:id="@id/battery" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_marginBottom="0.33000004dip" android:layout_marginStart="5.0dip" />
4.Download the mod files and place them in smali/com/android/systemui/statusbar/policy folder.
5.Recompile and set permissions.
You are free to use and bake this mod and app into your rom provided you give full and proper credits and you provide a link to this thread. Also you cannot alter in any way without permission from me first.
This is not a open source project and I share with you as is. All codes belong to and are copyright to me.
My wife and kids for giving up their time with me so I can do this. Love you guys.

[Q] Mysterious Permissions! Where did they get from?

Hello! I am really going mad!! Please help me! I am developing cm11 theme using other one as a template. But now I want to change the package name of apk!
I changed it using Eclipes, signed and recompiled it. But when i install this theme, it shows me new "Privacy" permissions with 2 items (see screenshot), that were not before (when I was using template's package name, compiling it using apktool and signing it with Zipsigner).
Is it OK to have "Privacy" permissions and these 2 items? (But I dont think so..) Or how can I remove them?
In manifest there are no changes except package and author names.
Here is the code:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="no"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:installLocation="internalOnly" package="com.my.theme">
<meta-data android:name="org.cyanogenmod.theme.name" android:value="My Theme"/>
<meta-data android:name="org.cyanogenmod.theme.author" android:value="Me"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.SET_WALLPAPER"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS"/>
<application android:allowBackup="true" android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher" android:label="@string/app_name"/>
<uses-feature android:name="org.cyanogenmod.theme" android:required="true"/>
</manifest>
When I edit Manifest using Notepad and compile it Using Apktool I Get .apk file With 80KB.. When I edit manifest and smali folders and files, where is written package name, and compile it, I get normal apk but with old Package name!! What is the problem? Are there other ways to edit manifest?

[MOD/TUTORIAL] [LP] Add reboot option for Systemui (the easy way)

I got asked a few times on how to add reboot option for SystemUI just like in my ROM.
Here's how it looks like: (the button next to the battery icon)
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Q: Why this is the easy way?
A: Basically there are two ways to make your SystemuI restart - the one is using java/smali and the other, the easier way, is using xml editing only.
Q: How does it work?
A: In xml language for Android every element has it's own attributes, for example the button that we're going to use has an
Code:
android:onClick
attribute, this specific attribute allows to call a method from java/smali in order to start a certain function. But if no method is found the SystemUI app will force close and then automatically start again - which is what we want.
Requirements:
--- you know what compile/decompile is
--- you know what odex/deodex is
--- you have experience with flashing stuff
Warning! This mod might work on odexed roms since it doesn't mess with smali. For odexed users it is highly recommended that a back up is created.
Installation:
--- locate your SystemUI. It's in system>priv-app>SystemUI>SystemUI.apk
--- decompile
--- go to res>layout and open status_bar_expanded_header.xml
--- find the following line of code:
Code:
<TextView android:textSize="@dimen/battery_level_text_size" android:textColor="#ffffffff" android:layout_gravity="center_vertical" android:id="@id/battery_level" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:importantForAccessibility="noHideDescendants" android:paddingEnd="@dimen/battery_level_padding_end" android:layout_marginStart="@dimen/header_battery_margin_expanded" />
</LinearLayout>
--- paste this code after it:
Code:
<ImageButton
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:background="@drawable/systemui_restart"
android:layout_toStartOf="@id/multi_user_switch"
android:onClick="selfDestruct"
android:layout_marginRight="160dip"
android:layout_marginTop="19dip"/>
--- save the xml file
--- the hard parts is over
--- download the attached systemUI_drawables.zip archive (non-flashable!) and put the extracted files into your systemui
--- compile and flash
When your phone reboots you should now have a reboot SystemUI option!
Happy play!
