Hi all,
I'm currently working on a 2.1 Sense-UI 'Lite' Rom, which will use a customised, lightened version of the Espresso Rosie. I'll be no-doubt spending every second of my free time in Photoshop with the aim of making this rom look stunning.
As for the rom itself:
I've used highlights from several of the current 2.1 releases from this and other forums, and I'm pretty happy with it so far; it has a very small 'not working' list, and the filesize is reasonably low for a Sense UI rom. Of course, I'll credit people where credit is due.
Anyway, the questions. Some of this may seem incredibly dumb. Please assume that I have an understanding of Linux, but I am very new to Android Development. I've simply read the guide that Lox posted, then taken a 'learn whilst I work' approach. So...
1. How do I edit the 'Software Number'? (I can't seem to find it)
2. If I start again with a clean, AOSP 2.1 rom, how do I make it use Rosie? It can't just be a case of putting the Rosie.apk in the right place can it?
3. If I want to select which apps/widgets appear and where, do I edit the relevant XML which contains the Screen/X/Y locations?
If/when I have more questions, I'll post them here!
Thanks in advance
1. Sorry dont know,
2. No you need to add all the framework files, quite a few of them I think.
3. system/customize/mns/default.xml
Dan
Thanks Dan. I have the Framework files, so that's easy enough.
I suspected it was the default.xml, so thanks again.
Anyone know the answer to my first question?
I think that it is somwhere in build.prop but I can be wrong.
1. No idea what you mean by 'Software Number'
2. com.htc.framework.jar and friends need to be added to init.rc's BOOTCLASSPATH var ... so at the very least, you need to provide a custom boot.img ... that rules out adding it over other custom ROMs ... on top of that all the Rosie related /system files need to be present...
3. yes - that default.xml is the place ..
Good luck ...!
(Side note ... Why oh why would you want to add sense!)
Important:based on KVV Quick Menu(thanks howdykeith)

QuickMenu 2.0 ??
I wonder what QuickMenu version this is.
My version is 2.8.414.1614 as in the developer's site: http://www.alensw.com/
Is this another "QuickMenu" ?
It looks interresting for sure, but we need a dowloadlink or someone who reads chineese to get it for us.
Great tool!!! Thanks!!

QuickMenu
I see, it's not the same app at all.
Not sure if I need it, I love my other QuickMenu (see pick), but it's a nice power and wireless control app.
Thanks for the tip.

Blob Editor for PC
Version: 1.2
I've made a little tool that helps to edit camera's interface.
Supports both X1 and X2.
As you know, interface is packed into images.blob. Now you can replace any image there.
Also you can edit sounds.blob with it
Version history:
v1.2:
-fixed sounds replacing bug
v1.1:
-added command line support. Now you can assign it to *.blob files.
-F1 and F2 now replace or extract current file
-minor interface fixes
v1.0: initial release
Mini-Guide:
1) Get you images.blob or sounds.blob file from \Program Files\XperiaCamera\Resources
2) Open it in BlobEditor
3) Find any images you want to replace and press "Replace". It is better to extract all files (they will have internal hex-identifiers, not just an order)
4) Save. Move to \Program Files\XperiaCamera\Resources. Enjoy!
Screenshot:
Attachments:
BlobEdit - editing tool.
ExampleUI - little changed X1's UI. Changed arrows in options and "play" image in gallery.
images_x2 - may be someone wants to "port" X2's interface to X1? You are welcomed!
sounds_x2 - sounds from X2
Maybe write a mini-guide on how to replace the files? I thought it was a .cab app for xperia and all the work was done on the phone.. But I dont know where the .blob files are located in the phone memory in order to replace them :/ Any help appreciated ^^
Hi
If I'm not wrong, you're "ultrashot" from "mobilefree"?!
You & your friends converted my K750 to nearly a smartphone.
Glad to see you here!
@ all: ultrashot is a master in developing.
Thank you for all your works.hope to learn a lot of things from you.
I tried the editor and it works for me.
If you add "Drag & Drop" feature it's better I think.
thanks
@ chichoko:
It's a computer Program.
By default the files are here in X1:
/Program Files/XperiaCamera/Resources/
PS:
could you share X2 Camera Sounds too?!

Good idea, but I decided not to do this because of some reasons. But I've added F1/F2 shortcuts.

Ok, shared. They seem to be the same as X1's (only one empty sound added)

It is not harder than MS notepad. You can extract all files, redraw them as you want and then replace all needed files.
So Great
Thankx

Well.. how do I make an audio file a *.bin file, so that I can select it with the application? Just renaming the *.wav to *.bin does give an error..
Other than that: Great, I've always wanted to get rid of some the camera sounds..
dsip, thanks, fixed. Check first post.
Oh, it wasn't actually me. Thanks for fixing it, works perfectly now.
I might very well imagine it, but using your sound.blob with the extra "slot" for Sound "D" felt like it made the menu of the camera somwhat slower. I haven't tested it or anything, and I just replaced the sounds in the old sounds.blob without a "D" in it. (Using an X1 that is, obviously.)
hey New to the xda fourms but looking for some information about skinning I got a few questions which I've trolled over xda very little and some other sites that never directly point me in the direction I'm looking to go. I have worked with linux is in the past. ex puppy linux which I was very fond of for user information about anything to do with puppy. but I have just learned from trial and error . anyways my questions are as follows.
1.I'm wanting to build a skin for rcmix 3d ver.4 creating sense 3.5 New look and feel while changing icons for a list of apps besides the skin and sense,how do I go about changing icons/skins in apps I download?
2. what programs do I need to take on this task?
3. I am currently not using linux,using windows7 to do this, is this going to matter? or should I switch to a linux based os?
in the end all I wanna do is change the bling appel of my phone with my own custom look not someone else's idea. a basic point in the right direction would be a big help. I my even post some skins to add to the dhd world.thanks in advance.
I want to ask the same questions:
1.I'm wanting to build a skin for rcmix 3d ver.4 creating sense 3.5 New look and feel while changing icons for a list of apps besides the skin and sense,how do I go about changing icons/skins in apps I download?

If you want to get away the easy way, then:
1. Download rom of your choice (.zip format)
2. Extract framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk from that zip file (you'll have to look in the data folder).
3. Go to UOT kitchen and go to file upload tab and then select "upload system files" then upload the ones you've just extracted.
4. Once they are uploaded, you can browse through all the tabs and select things of your choice.
5. When you're finished selecting, go to Sumery tab and cook your files.
6. Wait for 5-10 minutes then go to pickup tab and you should have your .zip ready for that specific rom
7. Flash the .zip
8. Enjoy!
Note: For every rom, the framework and systemui.apk is different so for every different rom you'll have to extract those files from .zip file of that rom
hey thanks,I have been looking at that kitchen cooking but I'm looking for a more manual approach at doing things. can I do that same step guide but manually skin it myself?
how do I manually recompile after I'm done?
I have been creating icons for a little over a week with gimp on windows on free time with a theme in mind looking for more of a one of a kind idea and then maybe adding themes to the dhd network after I get a handle on it, so looking to create theme packs. I been trying to do it with a few apps but I can't get the icons out of the apps to show up when I pull it apart so I figure I'm missing something I would need to go about doing my work. am I missing extensions I need to complete this?

To change the icons in downloaded apps you will need to decompile the apps apk then change out the icon in the app, them recompile. Mind you it will get replaced again when the app updates. A search would lead you to many themeing tuts on XDA

- It is better to finish the setup procedure after selecting a date and time. After selecting a synchronization vayfay - Installer stops working ... can set things up later via the menu)
- If you want the kernel to work, as in the original firmware - do not change the settings of CPU Seth! The default factory settings are just firmware!
- After the first run to give permission for root requests
- Just activate the locker, including it - as in the screenshot

- ... the taste and color - all the markers are different ....
- Do for themselves and for themselves
- Constructive suggestions welcome
- An example of co-operation and the option - in this post in the spoiler "goodies" by wmk

This file is laid out as an example to the instructions
to set the language in the letter rekaveri
how to add input languages in the firmware
you need to replace these files to the firmware files from the Persian

I do not have Persian firmware
I do not where to make the assembly
-------
copy and place the entire folder in the archive /system
I'll see what can be done
i undrestand that i should replace persian language files from lg stock rom to your custom rom is this right?

But i have used this ROM earlier. and had great trouble with network(data network) and I liked your alex rev3 rom Very much. Just two drawbacks.
I did not like the default background image of androidhawk .It could have been a black screen.
I just hate call screen. Its too boring with switch and i accidently reject and pickup calls.Please make it look modern.
Thats all. Thank you.Please fix it if possible.
Thank you sooo much for this!! This is my favorited ROM for LG P698. A little advice:
Maybe it would be better if the display font and display buttons or menus style on change as the display like BRD_p698_21062012 ROM-v2, so the look of this rom may be more visible light and fast. Also the background wallpaper looks not good. I like the status bar style. :fingers-crossed:
