[MOD] Touchwiz Speed - Galaxy S I9000 Android Development

Hi Everyone,
I tried to find a lot on all sections and google for a good touchwiz Mod but to no avail. So i thought of asking u guys for some insight to Mod Touchwiz for our beloved Galaxy S.
So i extracted TouchWiz30Launcher.apk to a folder. Was checking the different resources and i came across \res\anim and i saw two files fade_in_fast.xml and fade_out_fast.xml. Now they are binary XML files. So the question is can we modify or delete some values and speed up touchwiz. I dont care about the fancy transition or effects. Just raw speed. Tried ADW and Launcher Pro but i personally didnt like it. Please forgive me if this is pretty simple. Here is the code for the files.
Guys we modify these values and recompile TouchWiz30Launcher with apk manager.
XML code for fade-in
<alpha fromAlpha="resource_id:0x0" duration="resource_id:0x10e0001" interpolator="resource_id:0x10a0005" toAlpha="resource_id:0x3f800000">
</alpha>
XML code for fadeout
<alpha fromAlpha="resource_id:0x3f800000" duration="resource_id:0x10e0001" interpolator="resource_id:0x10a0005" toAlpha="resource_id:0x0">
</alpha>
check attachment for the files.
Awaiting reply. Thanks in advance.

Come on guys. No one's intrested in tweaking touckwiz.

Attention whore?

I might be running Launcher Pro, but I support that you are doing this. Cheers!

Would be useful especially since i've seen Touchwiz drain less battery compared to other launchers. IMHO.

Thanks for your work, may i ask how to use your file? How could i combine it into the existing launcher application?

if it matters that much to you, try picking up how binary numbering works...
Anyways, if I were to try messing around with it - I'd change that last digit in the binary sequence from a 5 to a 3...

Firstly, it isn't binary, it is Hex.
I have not tested but I guess if you change the duration to a lower number, you may get lucky but I expect that these values actually point to another resource for the actual value.

Sorry, I'm not really a programmer...I just offered an idea because nobody else seemed to at the time.
Also, I thought Hex was 6-digit ranging from 0-F/digit? Or is that for colors only?

Hey guys i tried changing the values for the duration but when i over written the modded touchwiz apk to system/app folder i keep on getting Force Closes. Guess i should take a different route. Thanks for the tips guys.
Sorry guys i didnt meant to be rude or show any attitute in the above post. I respect all XDA members. I just hope my findings would be useful to someone who be looking just for it.

Not really sure what you're trying to do with this. Are you trying to remove the fade-in/fade-out animation when using the home screen? Why would you? It looks cool!

I'm interested in removing the animation as well. It looks nice indeed, but it doesn't works smooth on my ZTE Blade. It used to work without lags on my T-Mobile pulse...
After changing the values in the XML file, is it possible to reinstall the file with those changes ?
If so, I can give it a try as well...

[Q] De-TouchWizzing MusicPlayer.apk

hello guys,
i want to "de-touchwiz" the music player so i can use it on miui. i managed to merge the twframework styles and colors with the musicplayers' ones and looked for drawables in twframework that are referenced by these and put inside musicplayer. i looked through all the xmls and where i found some "touchwiz:color" or similar i changed it so it points now to the local color/style file not the twframework one
but i got stuck at some points: i have some layout files that refer to frame layout with com.sec.android.touchwiz.widget and inside these touchwiz properties, like for android:id or things like that but touchwiz:twIndexViewHandlePosition and xmlns:touchwiz="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/touchwiz". what should i do with them?
and do i have to change the smali code, too? i guess so but i don't exactly know where to start with it.
thanks very much for your help
-picard
anyone?
-10char
instead of removing those tw attributes, you could try to merge the tw framework into the apk.
Just decompile the frameworks and copy their source folders into the music's app source folder.
that's what i try to do, i copied all referenced images and tw color attributes to the apk, but for these i don't know how to change (i guess i need to make it an android attribute, can i make it by simply merging those from the framework?)
but what is "com.sec.android.touchwiz.widget" referring to? what do i have to merge to my app?
I did not meant resources but code.^^
"com.sec.android.touchwiz.widget" is a class somewhere in one of the tw frameworks.
okay, my bad

I know what you mean, this app is a nightmare - samsung really made sure this apk was bloody difficult to port, I dont know what else to try, I keep having errors and the apk wont start, I think it has something to do with the boot sequence not being the same on AOSP as on a samsung rom, it checks for a certain sequence and if it doesn't see it, the app won't start...

[Q] Launcher2.apk image file edits?

Hi all,
I am trying to make a simple change to the Launcher2 desktop, I can't stand the divider line above the app drawer launcher button, which image file do I need to make transparent to achieve this?
Or is it not that simple??
Many thanks
Haven't tested, but check out res/drawable-xhdpi/divider_launcher_holo.9.png. I believe 9-patches have to be recompiled before replacing them in the APK, but I could be mistaken.
EDIT: Actually, might be hotseat_scrubber_holo.9.png and hotseat_track_holo.9.png instead.

I am bringing this thread back to life folks as I would like to perform the same edit in Jelly Bean, but I would actually like to learn how to do it.
What are .9.png's and how do I edit them and are the files mentioned above still the same in Jelly Bean??
As I said I want to learn rather than rely on others to create mods so any help or a quick tutorial in how to remove the dock divider would be much appreciated!
Again, many thanks all!

.9.png's are PNG image files that android recognizes as being stretchable, and it knows where to stretch them via the black outline around the image that can only be seen when decompiled.
.9.png's can only be edited when an apk has been decompiled, not just unzipped.
After decompilation you can use draw9patch, which is included with the Android SDK, to edit the border.
However, if you're just them(e)ing the image, you don't touch the border, as it could possibly mess things up. You really only use draw9patch to create a border on a new image.

[MOD][HOWTO]TW Launcher with different grid sizes

I was going to re-post the apk's I pulled together for modifying the samsung touchwiz launcher to have an extra row of icon space on the home screens and an extra column as well. However, there's a better solution:
THIS IS A HOWTO. This isn't a "download the attached file and donate to me" thread. This is a thread intended to help people to learn how to modify their own devices. If all you want is something pre-made to install on your phone, there are several good customized firmwares (ROMs) available in this subforum. The attached files are so people can download a working example to compare to their own work. Please keep this in mind when replying to the thread.
First, a link to another thread that explains how to modify the launcher. These instructions are for a galaxy S III, but they work just fine for the Note II:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=27433971
That's not my thread and 99.9% of any credit for this should be given to the person who posted the that thread and the people from whom that person learned from.
Now, I found I didn't like these directions as-is. First, I thought the icon labels got too truncated when using this with 5 columns. Second, I really didn't like how this mod moved the little "page" indicator dots below the docked icons. (The photo's on this thread don't show that, but if you follow the directions, they are moved.)
So, I spent a few hours playing with sizes and such to get things to look a bit better (from my perspective.) That's how I came up with the apk's I posted a week or so ago.
Below, I'll dump my notes on the measurements that I kept so I could reproduce the changes I did (for the next firmware update.) They don't make much sense on their own, but if you combine them with the above linked thread, they make perfect sense. Keep in mind that these are my notes and not even an attempt as a tutorial.
Now, these notes are YOUR notes as well. Please use them, change them to suite your own desires, or ignore them.
There's only one thing better than downloading a custom firmware for your phone: Customizing that firmware yourself.
Code:
SecLauncher2... modifying the grid sizes
To enable scrolling on any of these:
res/values/bools.xml: change fixedWallpaperOffset to "false" (to turn on scrolling)
The rest of the files to edit are all in "res/values-sw359dp-xhdpi"
For 4x5 (extra vertical row):
integers.xml:
<integer name="home_cellCountX">4</integer>
<integer name="home_cellCountY">5</integer>
dimens.xml
<dimen name="app_icon_size">44.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="home_cellWidth_port">80.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="home_cellHeight_port">90.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="home_cellGapX_port">10.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="home_cellGapY_port">2.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="home_pageMarginPlusPaddingTop">12.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="home_pageIndicatorTop">484.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="home_pageIndicatorTopShrunken">484.0dip</dimen>
For 5x4 (extra horiz column):
use the 4x5 and 5x5 to figure it out.
for 5x5 (both extra row and extra column):
integers.xml
<integer name="home_cellCountX">5</integer>
<integer name="home_cellCountY">5</integer>
dimens.xml
<dimen name="app_icon_size">44.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="home_cellWidth_port">68.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="home_cellHeight_port">90.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="home_cellGapX_port">4.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="home_cellGapY_port">2.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="home_pageMarginPlusPaddingTop">12.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="home_pageIndicatorTop">484.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="home_pageIndicatorTopShrunken">484.0dip</dimen>
styles.xml (this is needed for 5 columns or the icon labels get truncated - the change is only the textSize)
<style name="HomeIcon" parent="@style/BaseHomeIcon">
<item name="android:textSize">12.0dip</item>
As a bonus, I'll also upload some apk files that already have these changes in place. My primary intention for uploading them is to serve as an example, but they are fully functional on a stock i317 firmware.
If you want to use them as-is, do a backup first. Then figure out which you want based on the name. (4x5 is 4 columns and 5 rows IN ADDITION to the dock row. if "scroll" is in the name, the wallpaper will scroll, else it won't.) Then rename the file to "SecLauncher2.apk", and use something like root explorer (that allows you to write to the /system/app partition) and overwrite the existing file by the same name. After you do that, your home launcher will get a little nutty for a second or three, and then it'll work fine. (If it doesn't, restore the backup.)
(If you download one of these files with IE, the file extension might get changed from "apk" to "zip" If so, just change it back to .apk.)
Take care
Gary
I used the 4x5 scroll apk. It worked great. . I was worried about it resetting all my folders and widgets, but they just bumped up. The 4x4 twcalendar is a little cut off on top and bottom, but not enough to effect me. My music and google search widgets dissapeared but I reset them and all is good. Since the Music widget is re-sizable is here a way to make all widgets re sizable with the tw launcher?
4X5 with Scoll - Awesome!
Very Cool - and huge thanks for this. I took the 4X5 Scroll and renamed the way you suggested - moved to the AP folder with Root Explorer and then rebooted - after booting up - wall paper scolls beautfiully - very smooth - and more room for aps and widgets and stuff - I was a little concerned that multiview would stopp working but no - it works fine.
All is good - thanks for the AP - considering how new this phone is - it is so cool to be able to get these types of improvements!
Thanks again.

I think only certain widgets can be resized - not all of them.

I think you misinterpreted the purpose of this thread. It's NOT a thread where someone does something for you. It's a thread where I get people to do something FOR THEMSELVES and encourage them to share how to do things.
I'm actually insulted that you'd post in this thread the question "will you do this for me?" (The answer is: NO.)
At the very least, you could have asked something like "Can you offer advice on how I do this for myself?"

Wow, sorry, you can ignore my post or have mods delete it. The only reason I posted it here was because it was related to using your SecLancher2.5x5.apk. A bunch of widgets that I use no longer work when I change to the 5x5 layout. I have no problem searching for a solution myself, just thought someone may have an obvious answer. Thanks, have a nice day.

Just want to make sure I understand this...
You have a n7105 firmware installed on your phone, and you downloaded one of the apk's I modified from an i317 firmware and installed it on your device (instead of following the simple instructions provided for doing the mod yourself) and now something is broken. Is that correct?
And now you want someone else to tell you how to fix it?
One more question... did you do a backup first? If so, please restore it.

First off, Just because I only have 13 posts on this forum doesnt give you the right to come at me like a all knowing jerk off...
Second, The rom I have on my phone is a ported rom for the i317, so yeah. I didnt go off and flash a N7105 Stock rom on my phone.
I didnt "Break" anything on my phone. All I said was that after I installed the 4x5 launcher the multi window wouldnt work. So my phone is still working other than that. So the only thing I asked was if anyone else experienced it, and if so, did they figure out how to fix it. The 4x5 mod itself is working great otherwise.
Finally, Were you really being condescending by saying, "instead of following the simple instructions provided for doing the mod yourself?" Really? Because dont those APK's do the same thing as doing it yourself?

You see, as with a previous post in this thread (by someone else), you've insulted my efforts.

Actually, its a n7105 firmware modified to work on a tmobile T889 and with build.prop mods to work on the i317. (It tells you all that on the OP for the firmware you downloaded.) You did, in fact, flash a n7105 firmware. That, by itself, isn't the problem. Not at all...

If it doesn't work, then its broken. The following is from dictionary.reference.com when looking up the definition of "broken" : "not functioning properly; out of working order." So, if multi-window doesn't work, then its... BROKEN. Hence, something is broken on your phone.
(This is where I get sarcastic..) These are simple concepts. If simple definitions aren't working for you, then the OP instructions might be beyond your grasp.
(Okay - no more sarcasm)
However, broken or not is besides the point. I didn't upload those apk's for people to blindly download and shove on their phone without a clue what they are doing. Here's a quote from myself on page 1:

I'll give you some ideas: Don't take something prebuilt from a i317 stock firmware and expect it to work on a firmware ported from a different platform. If you try it anyway (which is fine) and it doesn't work, don't post on the thread about it.
Finally, if someone takes the time to make sure you have the directions to do the mod YOURSELF, then take the 20 minutes it takes to LEARN SOMETHING and DO SOMETHING FOR YOURSELF before wasting bandwidth on the forum.
Take care and have a WONDERFUL evening

I have a very serious question... no sarcasm whatsoever...
I wrote this post (as well as the CSC one, and I'm preparing another for kernel compiling) to try and help people do their own mods so they aren't dependent on others, so they can learn and so on.
Is this attempt of mine misguided? Does everyone really prefer to just take whatever someone else gives them without learning anything?
(If so, I won't waste my time writing HOWTO things... I'm a developer, not a teacher, and trying to explain things to other people is very stressful for me.)
Nice work, keep it up. .

Well sometimes when I am completely busy with things going on in my life I will just grab and APK and run with it, and teach myself later if I have the time. I do want to apologize for coming across like a moron earlier, I am not a developer and wish I knew half the things that some of you know. I am a hothead sometimes and am still new to the android community and coming from the world of iPhones, I have dealt with a ton of condescending morons. Again I apologize.
But one thing I want to know, and not trying to be nasty. But, if someone runs into a problem after following your tutorial or how to, where are they supposed to ask to see if anyone else has run into a similar issue? Would you rather the forums filled with pointless threads asking the same questions, or should they ask in the thread that contains the how to or tutorial in the first place? Because in my original posted question I was looking to see if anyone else was using the same ported rom I was and if they ran into the issue.

If someone posted "I'm trying to apply this same change to the launcher from XYZ firmware and I'm having problems", I'd likely ask them to revert their launcher from backup, and redo the modification, but this time log each step taken and post the steps in this thread.
My purpose in doing that would be twofold. First to enable you, had you recording the steps while doing them, to find any mistake you might have made the first time. You might have skipped a step the first time accidentally, and by recording them as you do them, you'd fill in that missing step. (When I follow instructions and have errors, I find that when I do this exercise, the problem will go away.)
Secondly, to enable me to see the steps you performed to verify them AND to repeat those same steps (as you would have recorded them - not from the original instructions) on my own side to see if I get different results. Sometimes a subtle change will result in dramatic differences.
If you still had the problem after doing the mod while recording the steps, how I would approach the issue would be dependent on if I had the same issue when following your steps, if you had the same problem (or a different problem), if I had a problem (but a different one from what you had) and so on. At that point, I'd have to play it by ear. I might also go to the person who posted the firmware your basing on and ask them to offer some assistance.
On the other hand, this is one of the more trivial changes that mostly works across MANY versions of the 4.x touchwiz launcher, so I wouldn't expect any problems. I would certainly expect compatibility issues, however, if mixing different firmware versions.
Here's one that might amuse you: If I take the SecLauncher2.apk from the n7100 firmware (DBT released - not a leak) and framework-res.apk from the same firmware, I can perform this change and install it on a i317 and it works. However, being the i317 doesn't have multi-view, that doesn't "break."
Your experience seems to indicate that "multi-view" has a dependency in SecLauncher2.apk... I wonder what would happen if a person with a multi-view capable firmware were to install nova launcher and actually DELETE SecLauncher2.apk. Would that also break multi-view? (I don't have my n7100 anymore, so can't test that.)

[Q] Nav Buttons

Hello. I was wondering if anyone has ever created a mod that would make the NAV Buttons change color constantly? Like a slowly shifting blend of colors. Kinda like when LED stripes shift colors. I have tried searching but either no one has or i suck at searching. Thanks in advance.

I haven't seen a similar mod and I am not sure if it is easy to be done because probably it requires constant changes to SystemUI and Framework while the device is running!
Still maybe a dev finds it possible and makes it
Of course it won't require constant changes the the code.. Please don't answer if you know nothing about programming.
It could can be done, and it won't require any huge changes, but it will require someone capable of and willing to do it.

I typed "probably" which means I am not sure about that but just my thought. I did not even talk about the code! I meant changes in the images which are of different colors. Still that was my "thought" and nothing more.
Anyway sorry if I have done something wrong. It is good that it won't require that constant changes and hopefully someone will be interested in this idea and do it
Hi
Is there any mod for normal color change like constant ?

At least its possible. Maybe someone will try it. If you are running AOKP you can change nav button color to any color you like. I am sure someone has made a mod for it. Thx for the responses.

Tablet UI transparent status/sys bar HELP

Ok guys,
Im going to post this in every Note 2 variant forum until I can figure this out.. I mmanaged to get a working transparent status/systembar on my note 2 on tablet UI.. the only problem being that my phone totally locked up and being the DUMB a$$ that I am I did create a backup.. reflashed a rom and thought I could recreate it.. I have located what I think the files name is and it is tw_status_bar_background.9.png. Now when I try to recreate it the status bar becomes all distored when pressing something.. I will show you pictures below of it working and it NOT working.. Any help or guidance would be much appreciated.. I am not asking anyone to give me a step by step but more of just yes thats the right file or no thats not it..
PS the black line you see at the bottom of first pic is bc the wallpaper is not scaled properly, which can be fixed..

Think some of us would appreciate if you released a ROM for us flashers that looked like that. Looks sweet. I'd definitely would like to see that screen on my phone.

if u wanna change the bottom system bar, the default should be tw_status_bar_background, as shown in tw_system_bar.xml, but u can use color code if u want to

well, i have started to mod my phone with tablet ui for more than a year but still yet to release anything athough i am using it on daily basis from note -> s3 -> note2 now. however, since the updates were rolled out quite frequently in the last year, i had to switch to new firmwares and redo/rewrite the changes accordingly because there were quite a lot of fundamental changes recently. this process is time consuming especially i employed some parts of firmwares from other devices as well as the custom features i added. so, i am not sure when i can release something since i modded the kernel and the rom as well in my own way which compromises the usual practice in terms of structure and so forth. that means i have to make sure it is compatible with other roms first, and then i must ensure i have time to solve and fix users problems
