Change browser on internet tab

Is there a way to change the browser that launches from the internet tab? It's default at Opera Mobile and even though I have Opera 9.7 as the default browser, it still launches the old one.
Thanks,
Marky

Best bet is to search the forum for the question.
Here is a link:

Connect your phone to computer
open folder device storage\application data\manila\InternetPortal-en-us.xml
on your computer open notepad
drag the InternetPortal-en-us.xml file into notepad
this is how it looks:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<InternetPortal>
<BrowserExe>\Windows\iexplore.exe</BrowserExe>
<IncludeUserFavorites>False</IncludeUserFavorites>
<Banner
DefaultImagePath="\Windows\HTC\Assets\Images\InternetPortal\banner.qtc"
SelectedImagePath="\Windows\HTC\Assets\Images\InternetPortal\banner_selected.qtc"
Text="Launch Browser"
NavigateUrl="http://www.Google.com"
UrlText="GoOogl3"
Width="480"
Height="215" />
<OperatorLinks>
<Link
Text="PR Radio Station"
NavigateUrl="mms://38.106.70.66/reggaeton_live"
ImagePath="\Windows\PrFlag.png" />
</OperatorLinks>
</InternetPortal>
the items in red you can customized yourself by adding your own web address and name.
once your done you can file save as, save as type all files and
drag it back to device storage\application data\manila.
select yes to overwrite or replace.
you can also add more shorcuts by adding this formula and changing the red:
<Link
Text="PR Radio Station"
NavigateUrl="mms://38.106.70.66/reggaeton_live"
ImagePath="\Windows\PrFlag.png" />
if you add more shorcuts then makesure this is on the bottom:
</OperatorLinks>
</InternetPortal>
you can also add icons with jpg, png, bmp, ico extensions on device storage\windows. but make sure the imagepath root address is correct.
good luck!

for your theme it's not a png ...you got to change the xlm (systemui.apk) and the name is :
systemui/res/layout/status_bar.xml

SystemUI.apk/res/drawable-hdpi/statusbar_background.9.png

open the status_bar.xml
PHP:
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.StatusBarView android:orientation="vertical" android:background="@drawable/statusbar_background" android:focusable="true" android:descendantFocusability="afterDescendants"
look at this
PHP:
android:background="@drawable/statusbar_background"
find it on " Drawable-HDPI" folder
statusbar_background.png
or
statusbar_background.9.png

[SOLVED] SystemUI graphic problem :(

hello,
so i was doing my own moding and tests
and it was very good till I had this issue
as you can see in the pic below the WIFI and the cell signal icon looks
like one img and there is no space
between them.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
so is there anyone can help me with it?
i'm using AOKP 35
and using 7-zip to extract and repack <- i think this irrelevant
EDIT:
i found in the XML file this text:
HTML:
<FrameLayout android:id="@id/wifi_combo" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_marginRight="-6.0dip">
and change it like this and it worked:
HTML:
<FrameLayout android:id="@id/wifi_combo" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent">

Just edit the signal image and add a little blank space on the left.

yep the signal bar icons are too wide. You have to leave some space to the left of the image^^

the proplem is the img is 39*36PX
and it's very small and the pic is on the right side
and i'm using the stock dimensions 39*36
EDIT:
as you may see in the pic, the cell icon is away from the battery and the battery is away from the clock
but the battery icon using the full space of the img and there is nothing wrong with it :\

it should be like this:

it's a bit small
but i'll try it
and thank you for the support

yep
very very small
isn't there any way to make some space between them?

Problem solved
there was something wrong with some XML file "\res\layout\signal_cluster_view.xml"
in the WIFI text the margins was -6.0 DP

Can this be done?

Here's what I have so far for a homescreen. I really want the top center clock to be white, and if it all possible the wifi/signal bars to be white as well. Something simple like MIUI. Also, is there a way to hide the vibration/silent icon from the notification bar? Any dice??

What rom are you on?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus

what about trying Statusbar+ ?
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...sImNvbS50b21iYXJyYXNzby5hbmRyb2lkLndwN2JhciJd

if you extract and upload the SystemUI.apk from whatever ROM you are using, i can make a few of the edits you are asking for. i will also write out the steps for you if you want to try it yourself or do it again in the future. it's actually pretty simple to modify a lot of these images with 7-zip and a photo editor.
1. open (open, not extract.) the ROM archive with 7-zip. browse to system/app/SystemUI.apk/res/drawable-xhdpi.
2. locate the following files and extract them:
stat_sys_signal_1_fully.png
stat_sys_signal_2_fully.png
stat_sys_signal_3_fully.png
stat_sys_signal_4_fully.png
stat_sys_wifi_1_fully.png
stat_sys_wifi_2_fully.png
stat_sys_wifi_3_fully.png
stat_sys_wifi_4_fully.png
stat_sys_ringer_silent.png
stat_sys_ringer_vibrate.png
3. edit the images so that the bar color is white, and edit the silent/vibrate images so that they are totally transparent (blank).
4. save those images, and drag them back into the drawable-xhdpi folder in 7-zip. say "yes" to the prompts about overwriting files or changing/updating the archive.
5. you can now flash that ROM file as is. 7-zip won't mess up the signatures. or if you don't want to flash the whole ROM over, you can simply extract the SystemUI.apk and do the edits in the apk file directly. then you can push the apk back to your phone.
the clock color in the status bar will need an XML edit or two, which is unfortunately a bit over my head, but this will at least get you most of the way there in your vision for your homescreen.

Removing the overlay on the left side of the status bar?

I have icons themed ICS blue. All the icons to the right hand side appear as ICS blue but the icons on the left hand side have an overlay that makes it darker... Any help would be appreciated.

Decompile the SystemUI.apk go to the values folder, open the dimens.xml file and find the <item type="dimen" name="status_bar_icon_drawing_alpha"> and change it to 100%. Recompile and push to /system/app.
And by the way, this post should not be here, it has nothing to do with development.
