That sounds great, thanks. I will give it a try but is it possible to set the brightness lower than it is set, the minimum value?

thanks for this mod
BTW i couldnt flash it so i copied it manually and fixed permissions.
but i'm not noticing any changes.
is the change so much and noticeable? or i'm doing sth wrong?

@dontbelive how do i edit max_current ? i opended it in root expolorer text editor and it just says 15 :/
never mind i flashed the pre_config phone looks brighter thanks
working on z1 compact

Guys I'm not sure how to modify the file, can you make a V2 also with lower minimum value? I read stuff before going to sleep and sometimes the minimum is too bright.. :/

just request desktop site and it will be fixed
its a great idea... can we go much further without damaging the lcd? if we can make it much brighter,then it can be possible to mod the gamma and white balance with normal brightness and much much deeper colors,right?
is it possible?!

@ dontbelieve Please help bro... tried flashing but failed... please explain how to manually install.
thank you

It will burn the lcd for sure if it's more bright, maybe bit more bright could be possible but the kernel allow only max 25
And gamma how to adjust I don't know unfortunately I will see in sys/ folder

Thank you very much, bro... love your work.. working like a charm. With you making awesome mods things can only get sweeter

Also for some reason I could npt install the zip trough recovery.. It failed..

Any idea of lower the minimum brightness? Brighter is good but I need something that suit my night-reading hobby....
Or just add "echo xx > $dev/wled:backlight/min_current" And if it right, what is the lowest value we can get....

Have you been able to get it to work. I tried this morning with no success.
working perfectly for me. dont flash the zip. inside the zip, push HTC_IME.apk and Clicker.apk to /system/app/ and then place the ".htcime" file on the root of your sd. make sure to use the low res zip (the one I posted), not the hi res

If you push them to system/app it overwites the old one. I also restarted my phone.vI could not get voice to work, but if you long press the microphone it takes you into settings.
Wow, this thing is hot! Also, it went completely under my radar. Thank you for this post, as I might have otherwise missed this for who knows how long.

[MOD] Offline charging animation for Xperia J/ST26i (.rle files)

Hello Everyone.
I would like to share with You piece of my work.
This is a converted graphics from unknown source (so if it yours write to me on forum and I'll put you on credits).
My work was only find where files are and convert new ones.
So here are a screenshot and CWM package as attachments below.
Tested on ICS (.75) and I think should work on JB (please confirm).
Edit 18.07.2013: Works on JB, tested on AVD Rom Stock 4.1.2.
Edit 26.07.2013: File updated, read post 14 and 15 for more information.
Edit 11.08.2013: 3 more animations in Dropbox folder, for Xperia J please chose 480x854 folder.
.
To developers:
You can use it for free but just give mi a shout if you are interested.
Credits:
Many thanks for DooMLoRD and his graphics converter without it this wouldn't possible (theard).
****** ALWAYS REMEMBER ******* AND MAKE A BACKUP BEFORE USE ANY MOD *******
Can you do this for tipo st21i? Or can you tell me how to edit that .rle files? I want to put numbers instead, maybe 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100?

This is really easy, research took much more time than preparing it self.
On DooMLoRDs thread is a file called boot_screen_logo_creation_package.rar just use it to convert prepared previously files.
In my Xperia J files are located at /system/etc/chgani/. Check on your phone if there are at the same location or search for them.

About the .png images, do it have to be exactly same size as stock image, or can we make it bigger, maybe filling up the entire screen? Too much black surrounding it.

I really don't know. Converter available on DooMLoRDs theard and usage is extremely easy.
convert_image_to_rle.bat filename.png
You get two files .raw and .rle. Rename rle files from ca01.rle to ca07.rle and copy them to /system/etc/. And that's it.

I tried one of those and I had exactly the same effect. Did you check size of image? I think it might be to huge.
...
I checked it already and seems to this might be the problem. Maximum size on HDPI device is 480x854 and animation 2 size is 540x960.
In that case you have to resize your graphics and convert them again.

Yes, and I have this one but it doesn't contain services.odex like above, designed for Z1.
I am odexed right now, don't want make deodexing in haste and I am not sure what to do with this file.
Probably will delete it, hope phone will come up after reboot.

Yes. I got it. Restored system from backup, installed module from zip leaving services.odex on place, rebooted, made a picture, installed
4K-HFRv1.3.zip, wiped cache and Dalvik, rebooted.
What happened - may be information for others.
I've seen 4K video and TimeBurst in menu, I switched off SteadyShot but still entering either of above I got "camera not available".
Next step - went from automatic to 'manual transmission' - here it was better,
I possibly missed this point reading forum.
Now I see I can do full HD movie with 30/60 fps speed (didn't try, too dark here now) and 20Mpix pictures.
Tomorrow I will give a try and tell you how it ended.
BTW:
I'd trade full-HD for 120 fps.
Possible ?
Anything what am I doing wrong or missing ?
----------------
Added next day:
I have 60 fps HD. For now I can live with it, till day when I deodex ROM.

Just wondered why am I getting only 60 fps while around I hear talk about 120.
I simply don't have this speed in camera menu.
I made assumption that it may depend on ROM, that odexed cannot handle 120 fps.

120 fps only works in 720p + lower quality and is only beneficial if you use the slow motion, or have a 120hz monitor.

[Q] [Request] Modified NavBar DPI for Stock Lollipop 5.1

Hi all,
I've been searching for two days a way to reduce NavBar's DPI in Lollipop 5.1 Stock rom because they look too big to me. Since different people are looking for it (from what I've read), I would ask if someone that is able in this sector could kindly make a flashable zip for everyone (I really don't know how to... maybe with a guide I could try by myself).
Thanks in advance.
If you can't get that, get SoftKeyZ. Has keys of smaller size.

I've modified the navbar to 20dpi on stock 5.1 and using it without any issues.
You need to do change some variable values in framework-res and SystemUI apks as well as resizing the navbar icons.
Attaching a screenshot here to give you an idea about how it looks. Let me know if you need the flashable zips.

Follow this link. It will give you a generic idea about how to resize the navbar. This tutorial is for kitkat, but the steps are more or less same. You need the latest apktool jar file and java 7 installed in your system.
Since lollipop some core things are changed most probably because of selinux and security stuff, so you need to use the manifest and meta inf files from the original apk otherwise device will boot loop.
Also you need to downsize the softkey icons in the System-UI apk, else it'll look ugly after resizing.
Finally if you lowered the dpi of your device, then resizing the navbar will increase the gap between the softkeys, some people will like that, but I prefer the keys to be as close as possible so that thumb's reach can be minimal. let me know if you want that mod too. Good luck.
Thanks man, but it looks too difficult to me... I don't know anything about decompiling, java, etc...
By the way thank you very much for spending your time answering my questions.
I'll stay on Chroma until GB is compatible with 5.1.

I was using Chroma ever since it was available for N5, but came back to stock because google maps was FC'ing continuously. Downloaded the latest chroma just yesterday night and still thinking of trying that once again to see how maps behave this time. Regarding navbar, typing the 'how to do' is much longer than modding the apk

I add myself to the discussion because on the web you can't find anything. For KitKat were available some zip file to flash via custom recovery on rooted device compatible with the stock ROM, but for Lollipop anything yet! 40 dpi would be perfect

Change DPI

Hi,
I'm pretty new to HTC and i used on my previous phones to change the DPI.
I'm root and I change this line of the build.prop : ro.sf.lcd_density
But when i reboot the phone, nothing happend and the original DPI is back in the buid.prop.
There is a way to make it right without install Xposed?
