Help me plz. Xiaomi Redmi Go. Settings.apk change. - General Questions and Answers

Hi.i'm newbie .sorry for my incorrect questions .
I have xiaomi Redmi go. Goal is to disable or better to erase Factory Reset button from Settings.apk.
My knowledge in programming of this is about 0.
I tried:
1. Unpack settings.apk as zip and just delete some master clear xml. It causes error ,when I push on this item in settings
2. Decompile , change reset_dashboard_fragment
Compile . But can't push it back ,settings disappeared.
I don't know what exactly should I do ,to get to my goal. I tried to find it on xda ,GitHub.

Just downloaded it.
Is it the unmodified version ?
And in your phone, when you go, in order to get the file, to /system/priv-app/settings, do you see any other file in the folder ?

Disclaimer: Do a backup before applying any of the modification regarding system files.
What your going to do may harm your device, from now on, you are the only responsible for any damages caused to your phone.
I couldn't test this, so it may be crappy.
But don't worry, just a quick backup with your custom recovery and it should be fine
Few questions before I give you the file:
1)Are you rooted?
2)Do you have a custom recovery?
3)Is your bootloader unlocked?
4)Do you know who to backup and restore your system and your data using TWRP or another custom recovery?
5)Is this essential for you to have the factory reset option gone?
If you want to see what I did, click the button
How I did:
To know how to install apktool , go to their website here : ibotpeaches.github.io/Apktool/install/
Warning: all of this shall be done in one single folder
Decompiled Settings.apk using apktool 2.4.0
Code:
apktool d Settings.apk
Headed to the out put folder and to the layout folder :
/Settings/res/layout
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Opened the file called "master_clear.xml" with notepadd++ (or some others code editing programs)
Headed to the line just before last one.
Added:
Code:
android:visibility="gone"
Recompiled the APK while keeping the original signature , using this command :
Code:
apktool b Settings -c
The -c is to keep the signature unchanged, needed when you modify system files.
What you need to do in order to apply the changes is just to replace your settings.apk file with the one I will give you.
In order to replace the file, go to :
/system/priv-app/Settings
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
And rename the "Settings.apk" file into "Settings.apk.bak"
Then copy/paste the APK I'll give you in the same folder
Finally restart your phone and cross the fingers.
When you'll answer my question above, I'll give you the file, because I don't want you to break your device just because you were too excited to hit your goal.
Have a nice day
PS: press the thank button on the posts you found useful

Few questions before I give you the file:
1)Are you rooted? Y
2)Do you have a custom recovery? Y
3)Is your bootloader unlocked? Y
4)Do you know who to backup and restore your system and your data using TWRP or another custom recovery? Y
5)Is this essential for you to have the factory reset option gone? Y
I see my mistake. I was wrong in compile file back .
I didn't use -c command.
Also I didn't know about android:visibility="gone".
Despite u give me file ,I LL try to do it by myself .
Question #2 to the GOD who showed me so easy way to do it.
ScreenCast icon turn off. I don't want to use systemui and open establisher. If I understand right ,xml I need is in framework_res.apk . Can u tell me the name of it and will the same method work. Is it media_route or what?

Here you go for Settings
Just extract the APK from the archive.
For your screen cast question, I think I wouldn't be able to help you, because the issue might be caused by the java code itself or something, that's not my field.
What I can do is modify the xml files to make some interface looking better or as the user wish it.
Your issue requires to look into the bug and I'm not able to do that, sorry.
But you still have the Settings.apk, enjoy it

I think that it could work, give it a try ?
Edit #1:
Didn't thought about this answer, don't do that, this will cause you a lot of trouble
Please try instead to find the exact cast screen icon and replace it with a transparent png, that could get the job done

I'm not sure to understand, you're using the settings.apk that I gave ?
And if yes, what disappeared? The only thing I've done was to make the button disappear, so I don't understand what's going on.
Is the settings icon disappeared from your app drawer? Or, in the settings, something disappeared?
Can you send me screenshots please, so I can see what wrong

[?]Question about theming .apk files

I'm trying to theme a few .apk's and I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. I'm new to theming android so bare with me if its a noob mistake.
I get the original.apk and change it to original.zip
Then I extract original.zip to a folder
In the folder I go into SYSTEM/drawable/ folder and edit the .png files that I want to edit.
Once finished I re-package the folder as a .zip
Change the .zip to .apk
Then I run it through the APK Signer (don't remember where I got it but it was on XDA)
Once signed I change the name back to whatever it was before
Then I try to install it but installation always fails.
Is there a step I'm missing or messing up? Is there another way to sign APK's that works better? Like I said I'm new to this way of theming but I thought this was all I was supposed to do.

Yeah ur making it harder than it should be.
First thing search for my everything android zip in the dev section.
Then extract the Res file from the app. Do ur edits using Photoshop or gimp or whatever.
The take the edited Res file and drag it to the app. No need to resign the app or anything.
Then it can be pushed back to ur phone with adb or u can make a signed zip if u want to flash it to ur phone via recovery.
Piece of advice...use 7zip. Not winzip or winrar. Its easier for working with apps and zips.

Awesome! I'll try it out. I figured I was making it harder than it had to be, lol.
EDIT: Whoa! I'll have to try that everything zip of yours at home. I'm at work right now and that thing is a monster, lol. I'm still gonna try the 7z steps though

Yeah its a huge file but has a ton of stuff to get started with theming and rom building and app building. Its worth the download but again its huge lol
Ok so I've been working on it all day and I've made some progress, but still nothing usable. Now when I flash my signed zip the phone loads and the theme is there (looking great) but the phone never finds signal. It searches for a while but never hits on a tower or anything. After a few minutes the android process starts FC'ing over and over. :-(
Here's what I got if someone has time to look at it...

No I am signing the .zip to be flashable from recovery (I'm at work = no ADB) I did just get it working though! I think that the issue was with an xml file I tried to edit to change the carrier name. (I'm not with sprint)
Not sure why it broke it but once I reverted back to the original it flashed fine.
Ok new issue, how do I get an apk to work/install once I've edited it? I packed it back up as a zip and then changed .zip to . apk . What else should I do? It shows up as the app and let's me go through the install steps, but then it says app not installed.

No reason to keep changing from apk to zip and so forth. Some apps wont install if its a system app.
U might have to flash it via recovery in a signed zip or push via adb

Yeah you can use it with any theme. But if you want it to match you may have to theme launcher pro yourself.

Thanks for your help bro. I'll give some of the themes a try. I was afraid I wasn't going to be able to use LP once I installed a theme. I like LP a lot so thanks for the info.

Hmm well I looked in the settings.apk, but I couldnt tell what to edit. I'd like to change the color of the on/off indicator in the widget, but I cant figure out which png files to edit.
Can anyone tell me what .png files correspond to the white text area at the top of the Facebook widget? I want to straighten it up a bit but I can't figure out which files to edit.

Also would anyone else like the idea of changing this thread to a general Q & A for themeing different .apk's? Just a thought.
I am theming .apk too and it is defiantly a system app lol... I'm having trouble getting it to install as well and I did sign the .apk when I was done. My question is that is there a thread that I missed in my searches that I could post questions or might someone here think they could help me figure out what I'm doing wrong.
Edit:
I did try to install the .apk by flashing it as a .zip and that installs it but will force close before it is even opens. Thanks in advance

[Q] Dark notification bar for 2.2

Does anyone still have instructions/required files for changing the notification bar on a 2.2 Droid X?
Before it is linked, I have already looked at teenfaces' thread; if you look, you'll notice that teenfaces has edited the initial post (presumably where the instructions were).
Just to cover all of my bases, I have tried the pre-2.2 post. (A boot loop says it doesn't work.)
Any suggestions?

If that is what you mean by notification bar, then changing that is pretty simple. I modify mine almost everyday. If you are rooted and have ninjamorph. The file is in System/Framework/Framework-res.apk/res/drawable-hdpi and is called status_bar_background.png. Simply modify that in photoshop, save as png and swap out with ninjamorph.
Alternatively I'm sure you could pull this out with adb. Commands would be
adb pull system/Framework/Framework-res.apk/res/drawable-hdpi/status_bar_background.png
then modify and save over that file
then adb push status_bar_background.png system/Framework/Framework-res.apk/res/drawable-hdpi/status_bar_background.png
then reboot.

That is what I mean.. However, in teenfaces' pre-2.2 post, it mentions changing the services.jar file.. Which is why I thought that simply changing the background image in the framework apk wouldn't work.
I have no experience with Ninjamorph. I'm not going to even try to play it off - I've only recently decided to take the plunge and root. (And I only decided to root because I wanted to change the font, phone-wide.) So, I'm pretty new to all of this.
Well welcome to theming. I am new to this as well. I have a few things on my modifying to-do list that I am completely stuck at. I will test out the adb codes I just posted and let you know for sure before you attempt.
{EDIT}Ok, this is best done with ninjamorph. I just tried through adb and got stuck in a bootloop. In photoshop create a document thats 480 x 770. This will be your statusbar background. Do what you want to it and save it as status_bar_background.png on your sd card where you can find it. I keep mine in a folder called THEMES.
In ninjamorph (free from market) Select:
Start Checks (will ask for root)
New Project
System
framework
framework-res.apk (it will extract the files)
res
drawable-hdpi
status_bar_background.png
then select the file you created from your sd card
hit the back button until you are on the main ninjamorph screen
select finish project
select framework-res
click yes
click no
click yes
it will reboot
when you reboot you may get a forceclose
hold your power button and reboot again
have fun!

I'm impatient. -Blush.- I decided to give it a try myself. I just grabbed the framework-res.apk (that way I'll have a backup copy if something goes wrong. However, the code you posted didn't work. Turns out, the path should be /system/framework/framework-res.apk
Anywho. I'm interested in modifying the images for the battery, etc. I'm hoping to find those images in the framework-res.apk (I haven't looked yet.) Any words of caution before modifying those as well?

just make backups before attempting changing system files. I really do think ninjamorph takes the guess work out of a lot of things. I didn't have good luck pushing my framework-res.apk back in adb and that may be because of the rom I'm using. But there are lots of good batteries floating around on these forums. Good luck

Thanks for getting me started in the right direction!
You need to edit services.jar to change your font color to white. There is a video on youtube showing how to do this. Then the images are in the framework-res.apk open it with 7zip and move the new images into the .apk then boot to clockwork and push it with adb while in clockwork recovery. Then reboot. It should work, if not post back and I am sure someone here will try to help.
The actual .png for the status bar is statusbar_background.9.png. Since I don't know how to compile my own .9 png's I usually borrow somelses.

There is two files almost the same name. But the one I edited and got my name and fox logo on was Status_bar_Background.png... NOT the .9.png
Thats how it is on my rom anyways. I am realizing I have different system files than many people on here.
do you need to be deodexed for this to work? I've tried it twice now, and no dice.

you know what, i'm sorry guys, I didnt even consider that. I am running ApeX 1.3.1. which is a deodexed rom. That may have to do with some of the trouble you guys are running into.

I haven't tried anything yet (other than pulling the framework-res.apk). I'm still doing research. From what I've read, though, you definitely have to be deodexed.
I plan on attempting it this week.. If all goes well, I intend on writing some instructions up. In the meantime, if anyone else gets it done, feel free to post some helpful pointers!
Just so I'm clear, what I want to do is modify the notification bar and pull-down without using a rom.

I deodexed and tried a third time, still nothing. I think I'm deodexed that is. Is there any test to know for sure if your deodex process worked for sure? I used the OTA Auto-Deodex
to expand on part of your instructions
yes
no
yes
the actual questions I get are
Confirm action - overwrite with finished project -yes
confirm action - zip align -no
reboot phone - OK (no yes or no option)
and then only once did i get a last yes/no about cleaning up files. i said yes.
are these the correct answers? and on the hit back button until main ninjamorph menu, is that the phone back button, or the on screen back button?

[MOD] Customize Sense 3.0 Lockscreen Background [How To + Requests!!]

Hi everyone!!
I saw that there were threads on customizing the lockscreen rings but there were none on changing the background in the Sensation forums
So.......
Here's a tutorial on how you can edit the background on the Sense 3.0 Lockscreen!!
First and Foremost, DO A NANDROID BACKUP!!!!! I am not responsible for any mistakes that you make or if anything happens to your phone.
Now we can start the tutorial!!
Download the m10 tools from here
Using Root Explorer (Or any other file explorer) go to system/app and copy the IdleScreen_Weather.apk to your sdcard.
Copy this apk to your computer and open m10editor.exe
You could also directly PULL the apk from your phone:
adb pull /system/app/IdleScreen_Weather.apk will pull the file to whatever directory you open the command prompt from
(Thanks to NRGZ28 for giving this suggestion)
Once the m10 program has opened up, click on load and browse to the IdleScreen_Weather.apk
Once it has loaded, go to the m10 files tab and select the decode images box on the bottom.
Double click on Lockscreen_weather_bg.m10 and it will ask you if you wish to decompile it. Click on yes and wait for it to decompile.
Now you will be brought to another tab where you can see Textures. Under this you will see 3 more textures.
Click on any one of the textures and you will see the background image. Right click the image and click on Show in Explorer.
The folder containing the png will open up. Replace that image with your image making sure that the file you are copying has EXACTLY the SAME name.
NOTE: Your png should be exactly 540x960. Also you will have to invert your picture vertically. This can be done with any photo editing program. I use Photoshop for this.
Then once you have replaced all the 3 background with whatever pictures you want, go back to the m10 program and go to the Start tab. Here you can link the path to the Android SDK if you have so that you can zipalign it and push it to your phone. Then tick the Zipalign APK box(Only do so if you have linked the Android SDK to the program). Then click on save.
If you didnt link the Android SDK to the app, you can still manually zipalign it. In order to do so, download the Android SDK and browse to the tools folder.
Open a cmd window here.
Type:-
zipalign -f -v 4 (name and path of your file).apk outfile.apk
Rename the new apk that has been created from outfile.apk to IdleScreen_Weather.apk
Now you can either push this apk to your phone or copy and paste it using Root Explorer ( or any other file explorer) or you can make a flashable zip out of it.
To make a flashable zip, download the blank update.zip that i have attached in this post. Then open it with winrar or winzip etc.. and then copy the apk file into the system/app folder in the update.zip
DO NOT EXTRACT the update.zip
Then you can flash this zip file normally from recovery.
Also make sure that if you are copying the file to the system/app, set the permissions as RW-R--R
Now reboot and enjoy your new lockscreen background!!
This will also work for the Friendstream, Stocks or any other lockscreens. Only the file name will be different.
I will be taking requests, so if you want any particular background just attach the pictures and i will make it for you as soon as possible
This is a modification of McLabia's thread in the Thunderbolt Forums. A huge thanks to him for making such an amazing tutorial!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1160206
Thanks to Lee for his awesome Leedroid ROM!!
Thanks to Flemmard and DiamondBack2010 for their m10 tools!
A big thanks to all the other devs on xda!!
If I've missed out anyone who has contributed to this, please tell me and i will add their names.

If u would mind thanks cheers buddy
It would be easier to PULL the file from your phone with ADB, than bother with root explorer (which not everyone has, as it's a paid app).
adb pull /system/app/Idlescreen_Weather.apk will pull the file to whatever directory you open the command prompt from

Try manually mounting /system before flashing
EDIT: im really sorry about that... there was a small error in the updater-script... ive reuploaded all the other mods and they should work fine now...
btw were you able to get it working with root explorer??
It remained the same buddy try with root exsplora and when booted hole lock screen missing

Hi there.. thanks for that awesome tutorial but I have a question..
If I want to create a single Image in the stock lockscreen, which file would I have to chose? LockScreen_Stock.apk??
Because I tried it with that one but it didn't work..
Thanks for your answer, and keep going (Y)

Yes you have to edit the lockscreen_stock.apk
when u load the apk in m10 tools, choose the m10 as the one which has _bg in it. There u will see the PNG file which you have to replace.
Btw, try mounting /system in recovery before flashing...
If that still doesn't work out, upload the pic here and ill do it for u

[BOOTANIMATION] Bios bootanimation for HTC One SV

Hi dudes,
did my first bootanimation for HTC ONE SV, so don't be to hard to me
Please note:
I have tested it and it worked.
Your device must be rooted to use this.
Use it on your own risk and only if you know what you do!
If you wanna have a look:

}
Download it from attachment and replace the original one (but please make a backup before) with a root explorer in the folder /system/customize/resource/.
Set the permission to rw-r--r--
I wanna thank to scar45 that he gave me permission to use his files/bootanimation for DHD as base!​
This is great!
Thanks for the animation I do like it a lot. I will put it in my phone as soon as I get a chance.
Will report back if it works.:good:
It does work and it is flashable via CWM (not directly but easily) !
I'm S-off, SuperCID, Bootloader Unlocked and Rooted. Running JB
I got the Cricket version of the One SV and I'm trying to get a boot animation working that I made. After I got together the images I wanted I figured I would follow the same folder tree and named them the same as what was in the original boot animation. I also made a sound to replace the original one. I used winrar on normal compression and copied it over to my sd card. I backed up my original and copied and overwritten the original one. I also did the same with the sound. Renaming both after the ones they are replacing. After replacing both files I restarted my phone. The sound I replaced played during the original shutdown animation so I took that as a good sign. But when the phone restarted it was just a black screen the sound didn't even play. Does anyone know how i can fix this. Thanks In advance.

Ok tried it like you showed me and it didn't work. So i tried an app on my phone called Zarchiver and it had a option to zip with no compression and it worked great. Thanks for the help if you ever need a tester for cricket for this phone i'll be more then happy to test it for you. I do know that your deodexed framework and apps somewhat work on the lte just the programs crash and no cell service wifi works just can not make calls.Oh and preparing sim card also kept coming up.

The bootanimation thing is a little bit tricky. It took me also many tries to get it sorted out, but 7zip did the trick for me.
As for cricket: if somebody will upload a system dump or a cwm backup (only system) i will see what i can do.

I can do that for you let me switch to CWM since i got TWRP installed now i wanted to make a CWM backuo also so to have both. I'll have that dump for you in about an hr ill reflash my JB stock rom that i made before deleting some system apps.
Nice bro and thanks. I've got this running on my Boost SV now.
Does this require the russian kernel?
If you are S-on, yes.
No wonder I couldn't get it running

I used Photoshop Elements, but every photosoftware should do it.
You need the font installed on your pc, choose it in the photosoftware (must look at my pc, how its the name). Now draw out with black color (only) the parts you want to overwrite. Now go to writing. Pick up the color of the font and choose the right size. Write the text, you wanna write and some of the text at the left or the right. Then move the text in the position. Use the text at the left or the right to get it in its position.
Do this with every picture.

[Guide][How To][D850] All Weather Effects on Lockscreen

DISCLAIMER: I did not make this, nor do I want credit! I just installed it on my phone and wanted share my experience and using @ins5736 from Here - He stated if I got it to work to post up the info in AT&T forums
Original credit goes to:
@zone23 developed this with help from @OptimusRs
INSTRUCTIONS(altered slightly from linked post for what worked for me):
ROOT is required for this
I use Root Explorer for all of this since copying files and changing permissions is easy in it.
Download and extract the files.
Navigate to system/priv-app and locate stock LGKeyguard.apk and LGKeyguard.odex
Backup these files in case something goes awry! I made a copy and keep them backed up on my Dropbox.
Delete the stock files.
Move the modded LGKeyguard.apk to the system/priv-app folder(keep in mind that the one you downloaded is spelled lgkeyguard.apk so you'll need to rename it and make the LGK part UPPERCASE) then change permissions to rw-r--r--(644) and then reboot. During the reboot you should see "Android is Upgrading"
Per post#2 below - editing name may not matter - your choice on that
I was now able to see a shine effect which was showing me it was Sunny outside on my lockscreen:victory:
It got cloudy so I was able to get a screen shot finally of the lockscreen

the caps 'LGK' doesn't matter... mine are lowercase, no issue. also you don't need the odex file from the download, when you reboot the phone will make it's own odex file.
it should also be noted that if you lock your screen prior to rebooting then systemui will crash constantly which will make it difficult to do anything but pull the battery.
other than that, you're spot on

Do you need to have the weather widget running? Do you have to have Weather animation checked on in Lockscreen settings?
I am asking because every time I try to check the checkbox in lockscreen settings it tells me I need to change refresh interval in Weather settings, takes me over there to change it, then when I come back the check box is unchecked. I am not getting anything on the Lockscreen as far as weather goes.
Maybe some app out of the bloat that I de-bloated needs to be put back in?
Anyone has any ideas?
Thanks,
Work but other problems arose...
After I applied this fix, but I could no longer use my HOME and APPS buttons afterwards! There were also other strange behavior like the LOCKSCREEN would no longer even show up after I shut the phone off!
I removed the fix to get things back to normal...
Too bad!

Did you delete the original apk and odex file? You can't just rename then to bak. And you have to transfer the new apk first reboot then the new odex reboot. I had the same issues as you moving both at the same time.
Does someone have the apk file? The link to google drive only has the odex file now for some reason...thanks!
still no luck
I followed the procedure, exactly what have you written but still no luck.. I infact turn on the location and bring weather widget to home screen, I can see clouds moving in weather widgets but not on the lock screen..
Any help would be appreciated.

Both files are there. There is only one file that shows, but it is a .zip file that will contain both required files within the archive.

You can rename them to .apk.bak, or in my case, .apk2. As long as the file extension is changed, the file will not be read as though it is the original file
Is the modified odex file completely necessary for this process? I renamed both the apk and odex files, replaced the apk with the modified one and got weather animations after the first reboot. Should I bother replacing the odex file still?

You can rename them to .apk.bak, or in my case, .apk2. As long as the file extension is changed, the file will not be read as though it is the original file

It's not necessary from what others have said. Doesn't hurt anything as long as you do the apk first, reboot and then the odex file reboot

Makes sense. Thanks.
Has anyone else noticed the lockscreen rotating after installing this apk?
