[MOD/HOW-TO][CM10][V2][5-10-2012]Notification Drawer Tweaks

Just want to share a Mod I did on the CM10 status bar when pulled down. By default, when the notification drawer is pulled down, the status bar is hidden. I didn't like it, so I tweaked the layout to make it look like CM9 and before. Also I noticed that the 'Clear All' button gets pushed out due to the large font of the time and also due to the settings button. So I removed the settings button from the layout (I never use it anyways) I made the Top section a horizontal scroll view. And this is how it looks like...
{
"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"
}
If you're curious how I did this, following are the steps(for v1):
1. Decompile the SystemUI.apk.
2. Goto res/layout/super_status_bar.xml
3. In that find :
Code:
<include android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="0.0dip" layout="@layout/status_bar_expanded"/>
Modify it to:
Code:
<include android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="0.0dip" android:layout_marginTop="@android:dimen/status_bar_height" layout="@layout/status_bar_expanded"/>
4. Then go to layout/status_bar_expanded.xml and find
Code:
<TextView android:id="@id/carrier_label" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="@dimen/carrier_label_height" android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Expanded.Network" android:layout_gravity="bottom" android:gravity="center" android:visibility="invisible"/>
Modify it to
Code:
<TextView android:id="@id/carrier_label" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="@dimen/carrier_label_height" android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Expanded.Network" android:layout_gravity="bottom" android:layout_marginBottom="57dip" android:gravity="center" android:visibility="invisible"/>
This dip value maybe different for different devices. It's necessary because your close handle and carrier label will be shifted below due to the first mod. So it's a trial error.
5. Next in the same file find...
Code:
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.phone.CloseDragHandle android:id="@id/close"....
Add this property to it...
Code:
android:layout_marginBottom="@android:dimen/status_bar_height" android:paddingBottom="-10dip"
marginBottom dimen is fixed but padding bottom depends on your device.
6. To remove settings button, find the following in layout/status_bar_expanded_header.xml:
Code:
<ImageView android:layout_width="48.0dip" android:layout_height="48.0dip" android:id="@id/settings_button" android:contentDescription="@string/accessibility_settings_button" android:scaleType="center" android:src="@drawable/ic_notify_quicksettings"/>
Modify it to
Code:
<ImageView android:layout_width="48.0dip" android:layout_height="48.0dip" android:id="@id/settings_button" android:contentDescription="@string/accessibility_settings_button" android:scaleType="center" android:visibility="gone" android:src="@drawable/ic_notify_quicksettings"/>
7. To change Notification Drawer Bg color, follow this thread.
8. Thats it. Recompile and enjoy.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
v2
Tweaked for CM10 A2
Instead of removing the settings shortcut, made the header a Horizontal ScrollView, i.e., Now you can scroll the top section(with the clock) to reveal the Clear All icon.
Lowered the Transparency of background.
v1
Status Bar always seen.
Settings shortcut in notification drawer removed.
Drawer background changed.
Instructions:
1. Download zip from the attachment.
2. Rename to SystemUI.apk
3. Place it in a system folder and change permissions to rw-r-r.
4. Replace it in /data/sys-parts/app/ (that's where our system apps are).
5. Reboot.
Note: Change permissions before replacing the apk because SystemUI starts force closing after replacement. Don't worry about the force closes. After reboot everything will be ok.
Also if anyone makes a flashable zip, plz post it. I'll add it in the OP.
Thanx.
​

Works perfect. Persistent status bar.

Themers. and Devs, Enable ink lockscreen in the sgs4. preconfigured

UNTESTED
so ink lockscreen comes pre configured in the sgs4, but all it needs is a place in the settings so..
all we have to do is
Decompile SecSettings.apk
Go to \res\xml folder and open lockscreen_settings.xml
Search for "CheckBoxPreference android:title="@string/ripple_effect"
then right below it replace the current inkeffect configuration cmds with these
Code:
<PreferenceScreen android:title="@string/ink_effect" android:key="ink_effect">
<intent android:targetPackage="com.android.settings" android:action="android.intent.action.MAIN" android:targetClass="com.android.settings.InkeffectPreview" />
</PreferenceScreen>
then save it and Compile *if you can*
the only problem is that most of these SGS4 4.2.2 apks are to hard to decompile and compile so i havent tested this yet, so if anyone is able to
succeed in testing this. please give back feedback for testing :highfive: :highfive: :good: :good:

@cabloomi Doesnt work. I tested both by selecting the rippleeffect and also light effect! i modifed the same at line 25
<PreferenceScreen android:title="@string/ink_effect" android:key="ink_effect">
<intent android:targetPackage="com.android.settings" android:action="android.intent.action.MAIN" android:targetClass="com.android.settings.InkeffectPreview" />
</PreferenceScreen>
I will have a look further in the smali files!

@grgsiocl , how are you able to decompile and compile it. i have many mods in mind that include the SecSettings.apk
but it wont go back and compile even if i dont touch or change anything. please zip your work space and send it to me. lol like the apktool and the framwork base's 1 and 2.
and i think it might be CSC activated like we figured out recently that the call recorder mod is also

i can easily do it as i am using the newsest version apktool. I also pushed framewrok-res.apk, twframework-res.apk and ssytemui. I will upload the apktool for you in a minute!
Edit uploaded the tool here! Just push the corresponding frameworks after extracting the zip and you are good to go! I am also using the backsmali /smali versio 2.0 , that also will upload it!

i made centerclock for the s4, want it @grgsiocl
maybe you can make a black transparent bar
and thank you for the apktool. it worked perfectly

If you already done it, then share please. I always love to have missing features in phone

the clock wont roll out the way for a notification. so.. help me. this is what i did to get it center
decompile SystemUI.apk
Navigate to res/layout/status_bar.xml
Look for a line that starts with
Code:
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.policy.Clock
and i deleted it.
then added these lines
Code:
<LinearLayout android:gravity="center" android:orientation="horizontal" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.policy.Clock android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Clock" android:gravity="center" android:paddingTop="3.0px" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:singleLine="true" android:layout_weight="1.0" />
</LinearLayout>
under this line
Code:
xmlns:systemui="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/com.android.systemui">
then i changed the clock from blue to white
from this line
Code:
<style name="TextAppearance.StatusBar.Clock" parent="@*android:style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Icon">
<item name="android:textSize">16.0dip</item>
<item name="android:textStyle">normal</item>
<item name="android:textColor">@*android:color/holo_blue_light</item>
</style>
I change the
<item name="android:textColor">@*android:color/holo_blue_light</item>
to <item name="android:textColor">#ffffffff</item>
so now its center, but it wont roll out the way for a notification
any ideas @grgsiocl

never mind. got it working, but its kinda glitchy

Cabloomi,
If you did not code this, please provide a link and credit to the "original" author.

}
hello guys, now i'm presenting you how to make your stock power dialog look a like power dialog on CM. it's easy
ok lets go
What i need?
1. tools for decompile/compile apk and jar files
2. the resource-file.zip
3. patient
How to?
A. FRAMEWORK-RES.APK
1. decompile your framework-res.apk
2. open your strings.xml then add this code below
Code:
<string name="power_dialog_header" />
<string name="power_dialog_airplane" />
<string name="power_dialog_airplane_2" />
<string name="power_dialog_network" />
<string name="power_dialog_network_2" />
3. compile your framework-res.apk then decompile again
4. open public.xml then search a new public code from code above like this
Code:
<public type="string" name="power_dialog_header" id="0x0104074f" />
<public type="string" name="power_dialog_airplane" id="0x01040750" />
<public type="string" name="power_dialog_airplane_2" id="0x01040751" />
<public type="string" name="power_dialog_network" id="0x01040752" />
<public type="string" name="power_dialog_network_2" id="0x01040753" />
5. now, open the file resource that we download earlier
6. merge/compare with yours
7. compile your framework-res.apk again
8. and then we done with framework-res.apk
B. ANDROID.POLICY.JAR
1. decompile your android.policy.jar
2. open GlobalAction.smali
3. now find this code .method private prepareDialog()Z
4. then a few line below it, you'll see a code 0xXXXXXXX (it from framework-res.apk/res/values/public-><public type="string" name="global_actions")
5. replace the code with code from <public type="string" name="power_dialog_header"
6. then, search code id public from
Code:
<string name="global_actions_airplane_mode_on_status">Flight mode is ON</string>
<string name="global_actions_airplane_mode_off_status">Flight mode is OFF</string>
<string name="global_action_data_mode_on_status">Data network mode activated</string>
<string name="global_action_data_mode_off_status">Data network mode deactivated</string>
and replace the code with code from (do a same things like step 4-5)
Code:
<string name="power_dialog_airplane" />
<string name="power_dialog_airplane_2" />
<string name="power_dialog_network" />
<string name="power_dialog_network_2" />
7. then, after it save your globalaction.smali
8. recompile your android.policy.jar
9. flash your framework-res.apk and android.policy.jar
NB:
1. do with your own risk
2. do backup first
3. if you get a errors, please report with a logcat
4. if you want to get a interface like aosp interface, go here -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2685748

[4.4] True Quick Settings

Sony divided notification and quick settings in 4.4, but it's not easy to use quick settings with one finger now.
I managed to show quick settings in notification tab!

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
[EDIT]
SystemUI Patcher can do same thing!
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wedy.systemuimod
http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.wedy.systemuimod
1. Decompile SystemUI.apk
2. Open SystemUI.apk\res\layout\somc_tabs_status_bar_expanded.xml, then edit
Code:
<com.sonymobile.systemui.statusbar.tools.ToolsTabWidget android:orientation="horizontal" android:id="@android:id/tabs" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
to
Code:
<com.sonymobile.systemui.statusbar.tools.ToolsTabWidget android:orientation="horizontal" android:id="@android:id/tabs" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="0.0dip" />
This will hide tabs.
3. Open SystemUI.apk\res\layout\somc_quick_settings_tab.xml and copy LinearLayout
For example (.681),
Code:
<LinearLayout android:orientation="vertical" android:id="@id/tools_rows" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
4. Open SystemUI.apk\res\layout\somc_notifications_tab.xml and paste "3."'s LinearLayout above
Code:
<include layout="@layout/status_bar_expanded_stylus_actions" />
For example (.681),
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout android:orientation="vertical" android:id="@id/notifications_tab" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:animateLayoutChanges="false"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:systemui="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/com.android.systemui">
<LinearLayout android:orientation="vertical" android:id="@id/tools_rows" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
<include layout="@layout/status_bar_expanded_stylus_actions" />
5. Now quick settings should be shown on notification tab, but tiles are too big.
To make them smaller, open SystemUI.apk\res\values\dimens.xml and edit
Code:
<dimen name="notification_panel_tools_row_height">100.0dip</dimen>
to 50.0dip or something you like.
Attached image is 50.0dip
[optional]
If you want to change items per row,
open SystemUI.apk\res\values\integers.xml and edit
Code:
<integer name="config_maxToolItemsInARow">4</integer>
6. Save all and compile.
7. Install SystemUI.apk with adb or recovery, Done!
Modded SystemUI.apk for Z1 .681 deodexed can be downloaded from here (Xperia logo home ver.) (flashable)
Note this apk will not work on custom rom.
I added quick settings tile setting to SystemUI Patcher.
http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.wedy.systemuimod
I have no knowledge to integrate list preference, so tiles per low is fixed to 6 at the moment:crying:

thanks man ! Cool

If you are using stock deodexed rom (not custom rom such as RomAur), you just need to install SystemUI.apk.

can i reset back??

Install via recovery(use XZDR 2.7.99) is recommended.
If you want to revert, you have to overwrite SystemUI.apk with non-modded one, in this case NUT's SystemUI.apk

Any chance do it for cm based rom?

First, you have to know how to push files and decompile apk, or even create a flashable x it. Tutorial is for advanced users, developers and themers
This thread is not intended to provide zips, due to various roms around, so a wrong flashable will maybe lead to a fc or loosing some mods, or better if someone will do it, i will add it on first post (if comfirmed working).... credits given
let's start with it:
U need SystemUI.apk of course, decompile it.

here you can set colors of battery for various levels, i leaved red when less then 5%, and white for others.
Battery meter bolt pints builds the thunder when charging, so i made it bigger, copy all like above
2. go then to \res\values\colors.xml
<color name="batterymeter_frame_color">#ff999999</color>
<color name="batterymeter_charge_color">#ffffffff</color>
<color name="batterymeter_bolt_color">#f21eff00</color>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
change above values as your likings, frame color is the grayed frame of the battery i have setted solid light grey insted of a semi trasparent stock, charge color tells you enough, no explanation needed
Bolt color is thunder color when charging, i putted a 95% trasparent green(u can put whatever color you like)
3. now focus on \res\values\dimens.xml
<dimen name="status_bar_battery_text_size">11.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="battery_icon_width">11.66dip</dimen>
<dimen name="battery_icon_height">17.33dip</dimen>
<dimen name="battery_icon_bottom_margin">0.33000004dip</dimen>
<dimen name="status_bar_battery_text_marginStart">0.0dip</dimen>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
first value it is text dimension, ignore it as i mod it in last step
second and third value is for battery dimension, i make it bigger as x screen to fit my bigger signal icon, u can do as x your needings
ignore fourth value(just copy paste it)
set last value to 0.0 as above
4. now open \res\values\strings.xml and find the string
<string name="status_bar_settings_battery_meter_format">%d</string>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
modify is as above as it will remove percentage from battery text
5. last point go to \res\layout\status_bar.xml
<LinearLayout android:gravity="center" android: orientation="horizontal" android:id="@id/signal_battery_cluster" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android: paddingStart="2.0dip">

in the textview content u can modify regarding your needings, text size,color, font and format.
Be Aware, for emoji reasons(otherwise above u will see emoji instead of code) remove the space in pasted text from :
android: orientation
android: paddingStart
android: paddingTop
Recompile it and it is done
Mod will work even u have applied imaged battery mod, so you can just add your preferred image battery
hope you enjoy.
Feel free to use this tutorial, it will work on other devices too , just some position corrections needed.
I will just ask credits, thanks.

yep i'm aware even of this, will solve it easily i think.
btw during all normal live(from 99 to 1 percent is working), so small issue under work

this is how i fixed it... in fact u can choose whatever color u will want for bolt when battery charging.
