[ROM] Creating a new rom - Conical lockscreen - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello i am new to the forum. I am creating a ROM, using Froyo as the platform and the droid incredible as the target phone. Generic compilation was succesful.
I am currently trying to change the lockscreeen. I have some found the locations of some of the lockcreen components. Currently i am trying to figure out how slidingtab.java is called. Are there any others that have some expereinces in changing the lockscreen-

You are in the correct area. SlidingTab is an object that is used in LockScreen.java.

Interesting.. Will be watching the thread closely

+1. I plan on doing this myself eventually (the custom ROM, not just changing the lock screen). Just hard to find the time.

thanks for the quick replies. I have some time right now. My school schedule is light. I will debug lockscreen.java more and get back with my findings. thanks ihtfp69

Can we get a pre-release?
You can also pm me if you need a tester.
Thanks!

what he said for me too..

Sure, but first I need to learn how to turn it into an *.zip for flashing. I currently run my builds through the emulator. If someone can get me pointed the right direction I can work faster ;-)

This is a silly question, but what does a "conical" lock screen look like?

It was meant as the name of the ROM. After posting I realized how it read. I'm not sure. Hmm maybe with two cones point to point.

LOL. I thought I missed out on some hot new UI paradigm or something!

pm me if you need a tester, always up for beta testing a new rom.
incredible with Virtuous 2.6 and kings 4 bfs

As far as I know their is no lockscreen sdk. If their was one lockscreen replacement could be so much easier.

ROM kitchen worked. But since I'm using an AOSP version the touch controls do not work. I'm going to debug using logcat to figure out if the controls initialize

How to use porting tools?

I was wondering how to port to the incredible. I have windows 7, android sdk,apktool,smali/baksmali, and 7zip installed. I need to know how to use the tools mentioned and maybe some steps for porting. Modification of apk, jar, .xml, .so files are a must when porting,i just don't know how. Can someone please let me know, even if you want to pm then please do so. Thanks. Oh, afa what device I'd be porting from, not sure. Maybe from the desire or n1.

Maybe a Rom kitchen will help. I don't have much experience in this area.
It's no bother to people, I misread. rom kitchen sounds about right. you could always just try and theme the ROM you like..
Thanks for the response. What I really need is to know how to use the tools I mentioned. I have a basic overall knowledge of porting but am unsure of how to use the tools

[ROM][4/22/11] CM 7.0.1 pffmod

Mostly this just a feature on their gerrit that is queued up for 7.1 that I really like.
The author of this mod was gracious enough to submit it to the CM gerrit, so I have pulled those changes (http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,4055 and http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,4056) into my own builds.
I have tested this with several apps that use ads, and it works flawlessly.
builds can be found at http://xdafiles.net/rhcp/
Will that work with higher than RC2? Pardon the stupid question but I know some other stuff refuses to work on different nightly's. Once flashed where is it at? This is very interesting to me
Yes, you can flash it over any normal CM build, nightly or RC. To access the permission revoking options, you go the "Manage Applications" menu, where you can view all installed apps. In the page for any particular app, it lists the permissions at the bottom, just tap the ones you want to disable and it will strike them through.
awesome, Thanks. I shall do that
So forgive my ignorance but what does it do

Can we expect update based on CM7 Final?
I was a complete idiot, and i wasn't pulling the change appropriately, so the build was broken for a while, pffmod build has been updated for cm7 final. get it at http://www.xdafiles.net/rhcp/
Sorry another stupid question...
Why is the file so big? Is it a standalone cm7 (I could wipe and install like regular cm zip?)
Do I need ti wipe cache and davilk cache before install?
Yes, it is a full rom . flash it like a normal cyanogenmod rom , no need to wipe.

Thanks for clarification
Is there any way to get the mod on its own?? Cause im using a newer build than the one uploaded...

You can compile it yourself.

The mod was supposed to be included in the 7.0.2..why it isnt?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App
Cyanogen is afraid of the amount of problems this may cause for people that don't know what they are doing. There is an effort right now to put a toggle in place for the feature and I am hoping that the feature makes it in. I am pulling and building with the feature tonight, but I don't know how much longer thats going to be possible. Please tweet @cyanogen if you want this feature in CM going forward.

Anyone running fully loaded syndicate care to test

I'm searching for syndicate rom version 1.0.2 or 1.1.0 fully loaded users to do some touchwiz theme testing. In house acs testing is being done but I want to try more phones to get a wider range of results. what I needed is just for you to flash a theme and see if it all works fine. If not we need to do a little but of troubleshooting so a solid nandroid is a must but it could all work the first go round. Post in the thread if theres anyone interested and for more details.

Here you go https://dl-web.dropbox.com/get/Public/Giger2.0tw.zip?w=59c06432
This is the new Giger theme for touchwiz flash this and see for me. The problem on sr101 was that the dialer tab activity, contacts, and phone.apk would completely remove the phone icon from the phone when themed. Even when I themed directly from the apps in the rom. I'm hoping this issue is resolved in the sr110 but if it hasn't I want to figure it out so those on fully loaded can enjoy full themes as well.

Thank you the last rom tested was 1.0.1 but I'm hoping both 1.0.2 and 1.1.0 don't have the issue theres just less touchwiz users that mod than the rest of us so a wide range of testing just don't happen

110 and theme seems to have taken fine. Only thing I see is the messaging icon isn't themed. Attaching screenshots.
Oh yeah. I slacked on the icons cause I replaced all of them with the adw launcher but since this is touchwiz I'll open the system apps and fix that. Once again thank you

PS3 controller for games?

The ps3 controller is usable on tablets so I was wondering if we could use it on our Inc's? One of you geniuses can figure it out, i'm sure. Would be great for emulators and maybe even a video controller. Might sound stupid to some but I would like it.

Tried the compatibility checker that the dev provides, and gave an "error: missing protocol" or something similar; checked the FAQ on his blog, and basically means the phone is incompatible. Oh well; maybe it's something with Sense/sense kernels?

Aosp video chat fix?

Is it possible that there isn't a fix for video chats on aosp roms for the EVO. I've tried different versions of decks roms and one from jared. Each have the same results. The furthest I've gotten is voice going through but without video. Is there a flashable zip or something to fix this. I want to use an aosp Rom but can't without this working. I tried Skype and g+ video chat. Both failed.by now there should be some kind of fix. On sense Roms they work but not aosp ones. I've searched Google and xda search but no luck. Someone please help.

Yeah. I loaded them in boot manager. Wiped all. Installed apps by titanium. Could it be kernel wise? I kept the kernel the Rom came with.

Well the kernel idea didn't work. I used taimat 4.1 with the same results. I guess I won't be using aosp roms as a daily until its figured out. Yeah the apps are but for some reason they don't function on the aosp builds. Thanks for your help but if you happen to come across anything please let me know.

Will do, and sorry they're not working for you.
I had a problem for video chatting not working. G+ and Skype didn't work which I needed. So after days of searching for an answer, I finally stumbled across this. It helped for G+ but not for Skype. I didn't confirm an actual chat but my image comes out and doesn't say camera error anymore.
The link has a adb command list but I did it via root explorer. My first try didn't work but on my second try I didn't fix permissions or reboot. Weird but worked for me.
One last advice is that trying to video call in Skype borked the ability to g+ video chat afterwards. A simple reboot fixed it. So here is the link I used:
