Been messing around with the framework-res.apk today after seeing some posts about the lock screen animation. Obviously this is pretty unfocused but I figured I'd share my results anyway in case anyone else wanted to mess around.
Lock Animation
Neat I guess, but it only works in Portrait mode.
User Agent String
I changed the UA String in the browser to get around the about:debug nonsense. It now reports as:
Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Intel Mac OSX 10_6_3; 3.0.1; en-us; Xoom Build/HR166) AppleWebKit/534.13 (KHTML, Like Gecko) Version/4.0 Safari/534.13

This one was worth it just to get the stupid MyVerizon password. Works for outgoing and incoming but you have to install an SMS App. This will also allow you to enable your Xoom's phone number with Google Voice. Data charges apply.
Voice Support
I'm able to make calls using Google Voice but I have no idea if it is an IP call or what. Obviously I have no minutes on my plan. Note: The mic/speaker doesn't currently work so this is useless unless you use the SIP phone. I might look into this when I have time, for people connecting their Xoom's to other networks with voice plans.
SIP Phone
Build-in SIP client.
Installation
Replace the framework-res.apk in /system/framework/ with the file attached and reboot. For whatever reason this might cause your accounts and Wallpaper to get removed. Requires Root. Make sure to back up your framework-res.apk. You'll probably need it the next time an update rolls out. Don't blame me if this breaks anything, but let me know if you see any issues (especially with date formatting).
To-Do: I'd like to fix the contacts app when Phone is enabled
Update 5/8:
Added UA String fix for US/CAN WiFi. (Untested)
Rebuilt UA String fix for VZW 3G using my new tool
All versions have the language strings from CAN WiFi
Update 5/12
3.1 Support for 3g VZW XOOM. (Use this if you updated using bigrushdog's method)
Removed previous files
Language Support is only partial. I do not have the new 3.1 language strings other than EN/ES so a few things will be English. Also, individual apps still need to support other languages (Settings, for example)
Update 2 - 5/12
3.1 US WiFi Support (Do not use this if you updated using bigrushdog's method)
Files:
full - CRT, SIP, SMS, UAString
uastring - UAString
I cannot help you with custom combinations or different models unless I have the framework-res.apk from your model
Hey fantastic! Try this out shortly!

Right. Already did. Now Imma try it out. Got distracted by trying to hack ad hoc tethering.
What Gvoice apk are you using? The Tegra one from Cyanogen Wiki force closes on me. So no joy there. Looking for handcent or something to test that.
Google Voice: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11971697&postcount=87
The screenshots are handcent for sms and the regular phone app
Very nice! thank you!
Works but calls don't have any audio
Worked for me except call had no audio. Going to try a hands free set see if that works. Off to bed now.
Fyi texts are pay per use charges. Just checked my verizon app.
Sent from my Xoom using XDA Premium App
The texts I've sent haven't shown up in my verizon yet and if they do ill call and say there is no way for me to send with this lol
Root explorer should work fine

Yeah, I'm seeing the same thing. I think it is an issue with GV because I enabled the SIP client and the audio works fine in the phone app for SIP calls. I'll look into it when I have time later.

If you use a client like handcent there is a per-use charge, but if you configure your number with Google Voice and use that for sms it should be free I think.

Can I ask how you were able to decompile the apk? I was trying this yesterday but couldn't find the dependee. And it errored out when just trying to decompile it without a dependee.
There is a fork of apktool which adds support for apks that include "xlarge" screen resources: https://github.com/fboldog/brut.apktool/tree/honeycomb
There is also an updated baksmali which lets you deodex honeycomb odex files

Deodexing..... Perfect. I have been looking for this. Is it as straight forward as XUltimate?
Nice. How about for wifi only Xoom users?
Also, is it possible to add the Gingerbread overscroll glow in the framework-res?

did you just setup your sip or did you have it already for a while?
Sorry, I've never used XUltimate or APKManager but most of those tools are wrappers around apktool/baksmali/smali so you can probably drop in updated jars.

I have a voip provider I use for my home phone so I used their SIP service but I just set it up on the xoom if that is what you mean. I mentioned it in the GV thread, but there is an option in framework-res to enable the built-in SIP client, which seems to work fine:

Ok, I've searched far and wide, and I have no idea how to get the word "Phone" off of the 2.2 Rosie bar.
If anoyne is confused as to what I'm talking about here:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
It's the word "Phone" at the bottom... anyone who can edit the xml or can tell me where to start, the help would be appreciated, as this is the LAST thing I need to do to release my theme.
I'm including the defualt sense 2.2 rosie bar, which I used to build from, in case maybe there's someone coming from another UI that may know.
thank you all for any help in advance.
I'm guessing its a XML edit... not sure where though...
In rosie where you put your "k" there are 4 other files which appear blank...one of them is.phone...also make sure the files in the hdmi port folder of resource apk are edited as such

I have no idea of where you're talking about. In 2.2, the K goes in Rpsie/res/drawable-hdpi
In that folder, I don't see anything about a File named phone, or see anyt blank files.
COuld you be more specific?
looking in the apk you posted i dont even see your "k" i see 2 phone handsets...i need your rosie apk...from there i can tell you what to take out...

Right and he does NOT want the "Phone" text to be there. He wants to remove the text that says "Phone" from the bottom bar and replace with his own image. The problem is that in 2.1 it was an editable image and it seems that in 2.2 it has been moved to an XML or somewhere else, which is what we're trying to figure out here.
ok the base of your theme was something koni and i worked on a few weeks back and he released it as enamorous red...i released as part of my rom...his release of the theme did not include the fix for the "phone" we had to go back to a previous theme to fix it as done in my rom...for ****s n gigs add these two images to your rosie and tell me if the word phone is gone when you flash...
Stumbled across this thread, so said, what the hell, might as well help you out .
Untested, but should do the trick.
Ok guys just saw these. Literally ahve three people's fixes to try, which is awesome, so I'm going to start with uggs' (who was dead on when he mentioned I used Koni's as a base in my 2.1 build). Let's see if one works!
Attempt 1 (Juggs) - FC on launch.
Next attempt - An outside source is telling me to edit the resources.arsc or whatever.

Yea sorry I didn't respond earlier, but I've been busy working on it, since urs actually worked. I actually decided to try yours second, and that's why I asked jabba to respond for me because I've been working on getting this right ow that the phone word is removed.
Thank you very, VERY much.
and, actually juggs' img helps too, because there needs to be a more wide image to make the icon push to the center.
So thank BOTH of you for ur help!
I want to remove the word phone from my Rosie too, can you tell me what edits you made?
If you were to decompile Rosie.apk, you would find various strings are defined in the '/res/values' folder (via apktool), including the string for the 'Phone' text.
You "could" edit there and recompile, which gives you more flexibility, however, knowing that these values, when the apk file gets built, are compiled into the resources.arsc file, it is much quicker and easier to just hex edit the file directly.
So, after opening resources.arsc in a hex editor, we can search for 'Phone' in its hex value equivalent (with each letter separated by a null char (00)), which becomes:
500068006f006e006500
Searching this out, we find a couple of instances, but it is obvious, once looking, which is the correct one for the 'Phone' text in the Rosie launcher.
When hex editing, you can't remove or add content, since if we do, it will corrupt the file. We can only change. With that in mind, you can simply replace all of the characters with a blank space, hex equivalent of 20, becoming:
20002000200020002000
And there you have it. With this change, 'Phone' has been nulled out in favor of blank spaces that you can then insert a graphic of in its place. This does not remove the spacing that the text once took up, so if you are not removing the stock 'Phone' icon to the left of the text, a different approach is needed, as the icon will remain positioned to the left.

. Hopefully in October.
Hi all. I was wondering if any of you themers would be able to tell me how to change the color of the notifications text in the pull down bar (the download one is pretty clear, so I do not need that). I have changed all the color values in status_bar_latest_event_content.xml to no avail. I have also looked through status_bar_expanded.xml and colors, styles.xml, etc. and have not solved the puzzle. Is there a smali edit I need to make, similar to the transparent background for the notifications bar?
Anyway, I have looked everywhere, tried several "guides" to no avail. If this has been addressed elsewhere, it was not evident, to me at least, and I apologize for covering trodden ground.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
Steve
I've been trying to find this damn thing for awhile to no avail and eventually just gave up. I did figure out it's an xml file in com.htc.resources but never managed to figure out which xml was controling it. All I can say is look there, good luck on your search!

I ran a diff on the DisctINC INverted Sense theme's decompiled resources and the one from my ROM and did not see any changes that would affect text color. The only differences I saw were with PNG files.
This is really irritating. I do not like it when I can't figure something out .
EDIT - I am a moron. I accidentally decompiled two versions of my resources and ran the diff . Stupid daylight savings time...
I wil re-run the diff and report back WHEN I get it.
Steve
OK, got it.
It was a smali edit in services.jar. Pull classes.dex from the jar file with 7zip or Betterzip, decompile the classes.dex file with baksmali, go to /com/android/server/status/StatusBarService.smali, search for "textcolor" in that document, and above the three instances you will see, change the -0x100000 to -0x1, recompile a new classes.dex with smali, copy the new classes.dex to services.jar using 7zip/betterzip, save, push to your phone and you will have white notifications text.
Not sure how it may affect other areas of text, so I will report back if anything weird happens.

I think the thread I grabbed this from is a bit old and for an odd phone but it says to look in downloadprovider.apk, music.apk and probably pandora.apk for that matter. I just started ripping apart xml files so I didnt get to test this out yet.
"For the Music.apk you simply need to decompile the file with apktool as per 1a. Now go to /Music/res/layout/ and open statusbar.xml with editpad. Look for "?android:textAppearanceMediumInverse" and "?android:textAppearanceSmallInverse", simply remove the "Inverse" part from each line and save the file. Recompile, resign (not sure if it's needed but i do anyway) and push back to device. Music.apk would probably work across any rom as long as it is signed the same. (If it's even needed!)
For DownloadProvider.apk i did it slightly differently due to getting force closes after compiling with apktool. I simply opened the .apk and extracted the file, "status_bar_ongoing_event_progress_bar.xml" from /res/layout/. Now open this file with a hex editor and open a search box. Search for hex code "0800001C", there are 3 instances of this. After each one you need to change the following 6 characters. They all start as "0800001C000000FF" where the six zeroes are black and need to be changed to "0800001CFFFFFFFF" where the six F's represent white. Now save and exit. Copy this file back into the correct location in DownloadProvider.apk. It will not need resigning. Push this file to your device. Done!"
Anyone figure out how to change/skin the onscreen soft buttons yet?
I know there's a mod to add search button, so there must be a way?

there is a mod to make them transparent for 4.0.1 and i THINK 4.0.2 but nothing done with 4.0.3 yet i dont think.
I'm about 90% positive you can just edit the framework-res.apk or its the system-ui.apk in the rom to edit the files to your liking, for instance I have ones that are text instead of images. However my Nexus is still in transit so I can't test!

Since it will be here tomorrow, i held off on beta testing, just incase something went hay-wire and screwed up another device. although its just a theme I didn't want to risk someones $700's! expect a full release this weekend.
But back on topic, yes it is easy to theme the soft touch buttons, feel free to PM me suggestions on what you want and I can see what I can do?

A full text one would be cool Back Home Recent
Maybe in the same font as the app "Minimalistic Text" widget. with the Home being bold and the others all lower case.
Softkey Editing is no problem
- Just open the /system/app/systemUI.apk on your PC with WinRAR (don't extract it!)
- Go to directory /res/drawableXDPI
- Drag&Drop ic_sysbar_back or ic_sysbar_res or ic_sysbar_home or ic_sysbar_recent or ic_sysbar_men etc. (landscape, too) to your desktop and edit it like you want them to be
- Drag&Drop them back into /res/drawableXDPI

- Drag&Drop ic_sysbar_back or ic_sysbar_res or ic_sysbar_home or ic_sysbar_recent or ic_sysbar_men etc. (landscape, too) to your desktop and edit it like you want them to be
- Drag&Drop them back into /res/drawableXDPI
- Close WinRAR and you've been asked to save it
- Click yes and put the new APK back to /system/app/

s60mike: do you know where the backgrounds for softkeys and status bar live?
ive found where to adjust the height of the softkey background i just cant get framework to decompile on windows or linux
@EkostonS:
Sorry - don't know. I've used a systemUI.apk with transparent Notification- AND Softkey-Bar (I found it somewhere here on XDA) and I must say that this only looks good on the Homescreen. Every second App got a ugly grey Notification-Bar (e. g. Facebook etc.) with this mod.
The only good thing with this mod is that everybody can see the hole UGE Screen of the Galaxy Nexus while in Homescreen
The Softkeys are using transparent PNG's. So you must use Icons with transparent Background like in my case:

I believe for the transparent softkey-background it was only a simple .9.png file with a transparent background in it?

Removes tether check. Verizon, IMHO, has no right to restrict how you use data. And to charge more for how you use your data is ridiculous.
To me that is like the water company telling me I have to pay more if I want to take a shower vs taking a bath. Its water. This is data. Get over it Verizon.
Updated: 4/14/2014: Fixed some apps have random error code 106 and The Verge App not working.
Big thanks to bajasur for his help!
This is for MJE based ROMS Only!
Same tricked used on every Samsung device ever made...
Original hack posted HERE and ported to Note 3 by me (and all the other devs in there ROMS).
Flash in recovery. Should work fine with Safestrap or unlocked devices...
Works on odex or de-odex. Most custom ROMS have this so I dont recommend using it over any custom ROM.
Designed more so for stock or stock rooted ROMS / Devices.
Two for one special: Also removes the keyboard indicator from the status bar!
Link: Unlocked Tether
Link: Unlocked Tether with No Keyboard indicator
How to make this mod...
Decompile framework-res
Open /res/values/arrays.xml
Find this:
Code:
<string-array name="config_mobile_hotspot_provision_app">
<item>com.sec.tetheringprovision</item>
<item>com.sec.tetheringprovision.TetheringProvisionActivity</item>
</string-array>
Change it to this:
Code:
<array name="config_mobile_hotspot_provision_app" />
That unlocks tether by telling framework to not look for a check.
Next to get rid of that hideous keyboard indicator (That I admittedly once liked)..
Edit bools.xml and look for ime_notification and turn it from true to false.
Now recompile and pat yourself on the back!
Just wasting space with this post...
Thanks.

Tell me about it!
is it possible for someone to post an already modified framework-res.apk file or is each phone different?
Mine says this
<string-array name="config_mobile_hotspot_provision_app">
<item>com.samsung.spg</item>
<item>com.samsung.spg.NewSPGActivity</item>
</string-array>
which is different from what this thread says to locate
<string-array name="config_mobile_hotspot_provision_app">
<item>com.sec.tetheringprovision</item>
<item>com.sec.tetheringprovision.TetheringProvisionActivity</item>
</string-array>

You ever get a solution to this? My note started doing the same thing. The signal doesn't show on the laptop but phone says its broadcasting.

"Started"? It worked at first but now does not work? If so then maybe Verizon "fixed" it.

Figured out what the issue was.
In the Note 3, you can specify the broadcast channel under show advanced options for the hotspot frequency, either 2.4 GHz or 5.0 GHz. I must have selected 5.0 somehow and my laptop only sees 2.4.
Once I checked 2.4, unchecking 5.0, it started working as it should.

Good news / bad news:
I was able to port the Z2 battery widget from your system ui upload, but I'm not sure how to replace the current battery widget. So far I can only make it so they're both there. I tried deleting the old code in system_icons.xml, but it causes systemui fc. I think the proper way is probably a switch in smali, but I'm not strong enough in smali to figure it out. I think I can probably hack it in size and layout entries, so I'll mess around with that a bit...
Obviously in screenshot the size and layout is not right, but I can easily adjust that.
BTW - porting is simple. No smali coding necessary, just copying files. I didn't make note of all the specifics, but I will get to it...
Great

I was able to hide the original icon, but new battery layout is wacky (screenshot). I think I'm also realizing that my systemUI is not good for testimony, because I have already hacked it up so much... Would be best to test on full stock SystemUI. Maybe I'll just post instructions, and others can test...

Here's what I did if you want to try
-Decompile SystemUI apk and SystemUI1 apk
- Copy SystemUI1/smali/com/ztc1997 folder to SystemUI/smali/com
- Copy SystemUI1/res/layout/z2battery.xml to Systemui/res/layout
- Copy SystemUI1/res/drawable_xhdpi_v4/somc_sys_charging_am.png to SystemUI/res/drawable_xhdpi_v4
- Open SystemUI/res/values/bools.xml and add
Code:
<bool name="config_limited_usb_charging">false</bool>
- Open SystemUI/res/values/colors.xml and add
Code:
<color name="statusbar_battery_percent_color">#ffffffff</color>
- Open SystemUI/res/values/dimens.xml and add
Code:
<dimen name="status_bar_icon_margin">0.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="battery_margin_start">0.0dip</dimen>
- Open SystemUI/res/values/ids.xml and add
Code:
<item type="id" name="battery_charging">false</item>
<item type="id" name="battery_icon">false</item>
<item type="id" name="battery_percent">false</item>
<item type="id" name="battery_stamina">false</item>
- Open SystemUI /res/layout/system_icons.xml and add this line
Code:
<com.ztc1997.widgets.Z2Battery android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_marginStart="@dimen/battery_margin_start" />
after '<com.android.systemui.BatteryMeterView android:id="@id/battery" android:background="#d9ffffff" android:layout_width="@dimen/status_bar_battery_icon_width" android:layout_height="@dimen/status_bar_battery_icon_height" android:layout_marginBottom="@dimen/battery_margin_bottom" />'
- Recompile, sign and push.
After that, it's a matter of adjusting values. For example, to hide the old battery icon and percentage, I changed values like 'battery icon height' in dimens.xml, and 'layout_width' in system_icons.xml to '0.0dip', and I would change things like 'paddingLeft', etc in the appropriate files to set the layout correctly. It will vary from device to device, so can't really spell it all out, especially since my systemUI files have already been modded heavily...
I probably won't mess with it anymore at this point, until I clean flash stock again. Maybe you can take it further...
Great

I don't know exactly what it's supposed to look like, since I haven't seen that systemui booted, (I just have the apk), but full port would probably require changing BatteryMeter and BatteryMeterDrawable files, which would involve a bit more work, (converting public id's etc..). I looked at it a little, but didn't get too far into it.
