Just flashed Myn's RLS 4 which has the power controls in the pull down. love the feature but dont like how the area for active notifications is cut in half so basically i was wondering if it was possible to replace the bar above the power controls.

i pulled this from my rom it should work for you.
do a nand back up first
adb push the status_bar_expanded.xml (attached) to the
framework-res.apk
just replace status_bar_expanded.xml its the /res/layout-hdpi folder of the apk.
just rename the attached file so it does not have .txt at the end
let me know if it works
Thanks. I'll try it in a bit. Also what happens to the clear button that is on the right of Verizon wireless when there is an active notification?

heres a picture of the notifications bar from my rom
its kinda hard to see but
the part that says red raven is just the .png file
normally it says verizon wireless where it says red raven
so it would look just like it does but no verizon wireless txt
everything should stay the same. (i think)
you could pull the status_bar_expanded.xml from the rom you are using so you can just push it back if the one i gave you doesnt work.
Nooo. Lol sorry I worded the subject bad. So basically I wanted to remove that whole bar completely. I'm running Myn's rls4 and it has the power controls in the pull down and basically I wanted to replace that area with the power controls.

After completing full root and nand unlock, my Evo no longer calls itself an Evo... If I go to menu > settings > about phone > phone identity, it is called PC36100. This is also true when going through the initial setup wizard(adding gmail accts, etc) it refers to itself as a PC36100. I realize this doesn't really affect the usage of the phone, but I find it very annoying... Is there a way to correct/prevent this? Or is it an unavoidable side effect of rooting with the current methods?
This is normal, and is the same for stock.

Does it even display as an Evo in a stock rom? As far as I'm concerned, it's a PC36100. I'd rather see the model name than the marketed name.

Can You Help Me Out With My Evo Issues?!
I Have No Android Market At All In My Phone. And I Have Rooted It With CM6, After I Did That I Had Flashed The Google Add Ons, And Nothing!! My Messaging Wouldn't Work, Internet Wouldn't Work, And Most Importantly, No Android App Market. So I Then Immediately Format Everything So It Was Stock, And Now I Still Have No App Market, Youtube, Sprint Football... (etc.) I Know I've Tried Different Rooting Methods Before For My HTC Evo, So Could Some Of Them Being On My SD Card Have Some Sort Of Effect With The Whole No App Market Deal..? Also, Can You Please Tell Me How To Fix This Issue? Thanks So Much!!!!!!!!!!

Are you talking about the wimax led on the right side? it should already be using it; or install the wimax notifier app.

You could ask in the app and themes section, most of the users will post the apk file if they have it, or search on google.
Sorry to hijack the thread but it looks like Roxx has got you covered. Now, quick question Roxx, as I said earlier I've been running CM7 for a little bit and I always used wimax notifier, I installed it again but I'm still getting the stock notification green from CM. I've looked and can't figure out how to use the wimax notifier instead of the built in on CM. I have wimax notifier set but still slow green lights

Did you open the app, and then click notification settings, there you can configure the light colors.
If you used the leds settings from CM, you'll have to disable them.
Yea I set it for what I've had before. Ill figure it out. Thank you sir.
Edit: Had to find where to turn it off at in CM. Thanks again

Easiest way to test if its working, set it to the green and red alternate flash, if you used CM led settings, disable them from the app, and for example have someone text you, and it should be flashing accordingly.
So I just installed Deck's Alpha8 of ICS, and wow is it Phenomenal. One question though, I have downloaded like different screenshot apps and all of them have foreclosed or not even started, does anyone know of one that will work, really want to get some nice Screenshots of this awesome alpha build.
You can turn on USB debugging and use one of the tools in the android SDK. Can't remember what It's called but it starts with a d. Google "how to take a screenshot with android SDK."
Edit: once you have the SDK. It's in the tools folder. It's called DDMS.exe
my evo is aggressively runny
sweet i didnt know i could do that, will definetly help for when i get out of work and at home to a real computer
any other way to do this from just the handset?
Power and Home button at same time might work..Depends on phone and Rom if its "baked" in.
Just hold down the power button and an option for taking a screen shot will be there. I think it saves under the DCIM folder, but don't quote me on that.

It's actually ddms.bat. I wasnt at a computer when i told you before. just needed to clarify.
Edit: When phone is plugged in and you have opened the program, hit screen capture under the Device menu.

Anyone know the resolution at which the screeny is taken at?
hi,
can't seem to find a solution to this via search since not sure what to call it.
this screen when the phone rings and you have go grab that thing in the middle and slide it in one direction or the other.....how do i replace it with almost anything else? can't stand it. at least if you could see before you grab that center thing which direction you are supposed to pull the thing.
i'm rooted and using liquid rom.
thanks
Uhh. Once you do it once, you know which way to go. Don't see the issue there lol. Do you get fumbled by the stock lockscreen too? Forget which way is camera and which way is unlock? Cmon...
I'm sure there are ways to replace it.
anyone helpful out there?

What exactly are you looking for it to do?
Gingerbread had slide right to answer, slide left to effectively stop the ringer and send the caller to voicemail.
ICS has the exact same functionality, and looks much more polished doing so in my opinion.
But I am curious, what is it you want to happen/see?
basically looking for just buttons to push...nothing to slide.
a couple things about me that the first smart*** "helper" didn't care to take into consideration.. just insult me...and thank you for that by the way! 1) i don't get very many calls. i mostly just use this thing as a computer so when i do get a call i don't always remember very well which way i will need to pull that slider and 2) i have 2 conditions in my hands which don't always allow me to "hang onto" that slider thing.
since, i found an app called "EZ button" which has 3 buttons that are displayed on screen when the phone rings. you either push the buttons or hold for a couple seconds. SO FAR...it seems to work in ICS/Liquid though it doesn't really mention being ICS compatible.
i will try out ACG as the prior poster metioned. i tried initially but it didn't appreciate that i have ads blocked so i have to edit the hosts file....in time.

EZ Answer looks like it does what you want it to do and more. It incorporates all of the other 'EZ' applications that cost 99 cents into one for I guess a good deal of $1.99.
EZTouch on its own looks like the standalone product you are looking for.
and
EZButton seems like another standalone product that does what you want to do, but also incorporates your volume buttons to answer by speaker or regularly.
Now whether each work for ICS and particularly this phone, I don't know. I see that you already tried 'EZ Button' so I'm guessing all will work, but I'm not 100% on that.
Good Luck.
So I downloaded a lock screen app to double tap my screen to put the phone to sleep. It puts the phone to sleep for a sec and then the phone wakes back up.
Is there a setting I need to change?? I've tried a few and they all act the same.

it's just how the .apks like these have been working since like sense 4.1
it works about 9/10 times from my experience.
Andy, it was working on ur ROM but then I flashed another and its not.

yea like I said those .apks have been flaky on newer Android systems.
I personally stopped using them and have been finding alternate methods,
such as this for Samsung.
With time I will be trying to see if this lock button works on HTC as it does Samsung seen here (the lock button) - presss to act as power button, long press to act as power button long press.
Very cool actually, and you get used to pulling down the status bar to turn phone off.

Works really well and best part it's quite simple to add.
Will be testing today to see if it works.
If so, you can send me your SystemUI.apk and I'll hook you up with it,
unless you use my ROM in which case I'll have a patch made for it as it'll be included into the next release.

I actually flashed back to your ROM cause I really missed that feature. I'll be looking forward to the next release!! Can't wait cause the current version is running better than most Roms I've used. Even on other phones!!!
