Hi!
So getting into the whole rom customizing thing. Got a general grasp on how to edit and customize most of the stuff, however, I'm missing one thing.
How can I change android default settings in a way that it's already included in my to be flashed .zip?
Example, let's say I'd like to set a different locale by default, as well activate transition animations with fast speed an so on (like customizations presented on http://developer.android.com/intl/fr/reference/android/provider/Settings.System.html ), how should I do it?
I got it that post-installation, some sqlite databases are created like settings.db, or that i could build an apk with the right permissions that would access and change these properties. However I'd like to this pre-installation, in the simplest way possible!
Any help appreciated.
Hello,
My name is Mr.Centurian and I am a developer or the brain behind the much awaited firmware by wave 525 users,Melior aka Bada Platform-X.
We are a group of people modifying our wave for better features and have achieved great results from our experience by now.By default,Wave 525 is not able to change Fonts and Lockscreen but our devs have found out a way of not only making the rc1 file getting accepted but also succeeded in changing the fonts and lockscreen of the phone.We are also working on the main menu modification so that we can get a main menu background but only this is the area where we haven't achieved any success.
Our basic plan is to get a main menu background by changing the defined resolution of Softkey from 240X70 to 240X400 so that it covers the whole screen but we haven't found a file that could be helpful for us.If any expert is able to guide us in this area,then it would be really helpful for our Firmware.
Screens are attached...Hope to receive some help
Cheers,
Centurian
I'm rooted and running stock Sammy Rom and want to change the system Font without using an app which hogs memory. I'd like to add new fonts to the existing list under display. I've read this can be done using the system/display folder but I can't find it. What are the technicalities of adding fonts?
It'd also be nice to be able to tweak/scale the font size (in pixels) and with more options than the stand list. Is this also possible?
Edit: Dohhhh, didn't even see the 'Get Fonts Online' option in the settings menu. What a plank......I'd delete the question if I could.
Saying that I'd still like to install Google Now's 'Roboto' italic natively rather than through a font changer. It's not listed in the Play Store as a 'Flipfont'.
Is there a way to change the speed (and weight!) of list scrolling animations? Like in most devices with the "window/transition animation duration/scale". I tried googling it, but only found a method that requires rebuilding the settings.apk file... Maybe there's an external application to change the settings anyway? My device's list weight is so light it takes ages to stop! I already installed a third party launcher, so at least the desktops and app drawer scroll fast, but the lists keep bugging me. I've heard there's a way to do this with editing build.prop, but I once bricked my Xperia E by editing it according to some tutorial from XDA (I really have no idea what went wrong), so I'm a bit hesitant to risk again.
Anybody?
Hi,
I got a used OnePlus 7T Pro, because it was a better choice for me in many ways than new phones. I just absolutely love the screen.
But I was trying to find out, how to make actually everything fully use it. Afaik there used to be a way on A10, that is no longer working.
So I searched the whole week how to hide the status bar, and in the end decided to even root and try various Magisk modules, or EdXposed/GravityBox stuff, pretty much anything I could find because many people reported "status bar height = 0" to do the job. But it really doesn't.
It allows to hide the *contents* of the status bar, BUT the space there is still covered by an ugly bar that apps (browser, whatsapp, anything) aren't drawing over. And that looks even worse than having clock+battery present honestly :'(
So I am desperately trying to search for ANY way to accomplish a fullscreen experience. Does anyone know of one?
I actually like the stock OxygenOS personally. But at this point, I'm willing to hop on any good quality custom rom that would allow it.
(I am even considering somehow downgrading to A10, but would absolutely prefer not to).
I can't believe people here aren't all over this / that everyone with 7/7T pro didn't already do everything in their power to accomplish a full system-wide fullscreen experience. So, desperately pleading anyone, is there some Rom/Mod/Module allowing this?
Thanks
Oh, one additional thing: I noticed, that when changing the option under
Settings -> Developer -> Display Cutout
The status bar (and the reserved space around it) actually does change and move up/down for various options. The "Waterfall Cutout" makes the bar significantly narrower, and apps are properly respecting it (= being drawn a bit higher) too. Which gives me some hope.
There is an installable Magisk module called "None Display Cutout" from here:
[Remove display cutout][ROOT] Full screen 21:9 for apps in landscape, incl Netflix.
Requirements: Magisk root. Download and install the "None Display Cutout" in the Magisk managers module repo. It will add an option in developer settings display cutout options, "No Display Cutout". Choose it, and apps, including netflix, will...

And "No Nonsense Notch Overlay" from here

These just don't try to accomplish complete status bar disappearance, but they touch on the "Display Cutout" settings in some way. So they *could... maybe* be modified to make the status bar completely disappear? Since they alter the overall display bounds even on Android 11 successfully.
Honestly, those 2 are the most promising directions I stumbled upon, but I personally don't know how to modify them to do what I want (= shrink the whole status bar area to 0 pretty much)
/// I reposted this to OnePlus 7T Pro (I am sorry I originally did not notice 7Pro and 7TPro have different categories), here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ay-to-hide-free-the-status-bar-space.4395539/
But if allowed, I'd rather have the thread left visible even here in "7 Pro", since I believe the solution would work on both and usually the semi-solutions I stumbled upon were from "7 Pro" devices too.
