clear sense lockscreen for Cronos 1.7.1

hi guys,
i really liked the clear sense lockscreen on my modaco 1.5 rom so i've decided to modify my Cronos 1.7.1 lockscreen...
i just removed the 'arch' images from the appropriate *.png files in the
com.htc.resources.apk file
tested and it works...
just push the file to /system/framework and reboot
i hope some will enjoy this
*imho it looks really nice with LauncherPro and it works with JIT
**i had to repack the file because the *.apk exceeded the upload limits
***haven't tested it on other roms --> before you do test it on another rom,
make a copy of the original *.apk first!!!

nice trying it now!

Looking nice

Created an update.zip to flash correctly for you:

Yes just flash it from recovery

Yay, worked like a charm. Thanks for the great support guys <3

I've updated this, but now the curved menu image is back and now overlapping the one that came with 7.1 and so the home/add icons don't quite fit properly.

Lockscreen_arch_top
bottom etc etc,if your folder id alphabetical when you open it scroll down to L
You dont really want to delete them,just photoshop them and erase everything then save it

Hi guys,
Good to hear the file works for everybody ...
I'm at work now so i can't check in which folders the *.png images are located but i will do this when i get home tonight!
*Feeyo thnx for creating the update.zip!!

Thank you!
Looks much better imho

hi peeps,
the files that i've modified can be located in these folders;
folder: \res\drawable-mdpi
- lockscreen_arc.png
- lockscreen_arcglass_bottom.png
- lockscreen_arcglass_top.9.png
folder: \res\drawable-land-mdpi and \res\drawable-port-mdpi\
- lockscreen_prompt_back.png
You can just open the com.htc.resources.apk with 7zip or Winrar and copy the *.png images to your harddrive.
Modify these files with an editor like Photoshop or so and remove the graphics
so it will leave you a 'blank' *.png image....
Copy the files back to the appropriate folders in your *.apk and push it back onto /system/framework folder on your phone.

haha.. i managed to modify the png files to my own design. pushed back in. everything works. except that the facebook count under my contacts becomes 0 now.. can't sync my facebook to contacts now.. any ideas?

[SCRIPT] ROM Packager [UPDATE 7/2]

Hi All,
I thought I might share this little script I have made.
Very Simply it is a Batch file that Will UnTar / Tar Oidin compatible files to flash. It also selects the relevant files for each type (Phone/PDA/CSC/Full).
Now also will create .md5 files for flashing and can compress to 7 zip!.
It will automatically use the files needed to make a CSC, Phone, PDA or Full type flash file and can auto split a Single Flash package into 3 separate ones!
It is very basic but very handy for creating a ROM package for a certain Country/CSC or with a certain Modem.
Also Splits a single ROM into a PDA/Phone/CSC.
UPDATE:
7/2 - v2 - Added MD5 support to script. Use v2.
9/2 - v3 - Lots of code cleanup, should be easier to use. Also added 7-zip support!
* Note directory layout has now changed, less confusing now I hope

If this really works, then You bohdans are fu**ing AWESOME!

Confirmed to be working on ZSJG4

I use peazip for the same work, but an automated script is way better. Congrats.

md5sum support

Hi,
Issue is fixed in Version 3. Also know has a packaged and extracted folder instead of in and out, hopefully that will make more sense. Tar's, MD5's and 7-zip files are in Packaged, all the raw files are in extracted.
Also added 7-zip support as requested.

Hi,
I have created a PDA package of XWJS5 with SpeedMod k13a 500hz using your APP. Worked correctly except for one thing. The main ******.tar file containing all the files wasn't detected by option 8 whether I put it in /extracted or in the main folder. Where do I put it? I used Peazip ultimately to extract my *.tar.
PS : I used your V3

bohdans, You sir are FREAKING AWESOME!!! I'm still working on understanding how to make my own ROM but this will most help greatly!

Nice idea once I used Win 7. WinXP does not have CHOICE.EXE/COM by default. SET /p works with minor configuration.
Good work.

It would take a lot of work. It will involve changing every CHOICE command. I have rewritten the main and full sections.
I believe pulling the choice command out of win 7 (c:\windows) might be easier.
I will test it later today.
Edit: The windows 7 choice won't work
The first menu is easy...
Code:
rem CHOICE /C:123456789 /N /M "Please Select Type of ROM to Package:"
rem IF ERRORLEVEL 9 GOTO EXIT
rem IF ERRORLEVEL 8 GOTO EXTRACT
rem IF ERRORLEVEL 7 GOTO COMPRESS
rem IF ERRORLEVEL 6 GOTO MD5
rem IF ERRORLEVEL 5 GOTO MSPLIT
rem IF ERRORLEVEL 4 GOTO MCSC
rem IF ERRORLEVEL 3 GOTO MPHONE
rem IF ERRORLEVEL 2 GOTO MPDA
rem IF ERRORLEVEL 1 GOTO MFULL
SET menuchoice=0
SET /P menuchoice=Please make your decision:
ECHO.
IF %menuchoice%==1 (GOTO MFULL)
IF %menuchoice%==2 (GOTO MPDA)
IF %menuchoice%==3 (GOTO MPHONE)
IF %menuchoice%==4 (GOTO MCSC)
IF %menuchoice%==5 (GOTO MSPLIT)
IF %menuchoice%==6 (GOTO MD5)
IF %menuchoice%==7 (GOTO COMPRESS)
IF %menuchoice%==8 (GOTO EXTRACT)
IF %menuchoice%==9 (GOTO EXIT)
The second gets complicated. It will take some rewriting.
Code:
REM CHOICE /C YN /M "WARNING: Do you wish to Continue? (This will Delete any FULL.tar files in \compressed)"
REM IF ERRORLEVEL 2 GOTO MENU
set /p yn="WARNING: Do you wish to Continue? (This will Delete any FULL.tar files in \compressed)"
if "%yn%"=="" (echo Not entry)
if /I "%yn%"=="n" (GOTO MENU)
if /I "%yn%"=="y" (GOTO MFULL_TAR)
If others can use Vista and Win 7 "CHOICE" command I probably would not invest a lot of time in it unless you want too. SET /P is universal and works for WIN XP and WIN7.
I have WIN 7 at work and it does as it should.

Ok,
So i know this is for the I9000, but theoretically will it work for the US galaxy S versions?
I'm wanting to create an Odin Flash file for the Galaxy S SCH-i500 "Showcase" since we're the only Galaxy S that doesn't have one.. And if I could use this to get this done it would be VERY helpful!!!
I tried creating a .tar from zipping my showcase_system.rfs and the zImage together but that didn't work.. I don't know if it's just b/c we don't have a pit file or what..
Any suggestions would be VERY helpful and appreciated...
Thanks

[HOWTO] Use the dsixda Kitchen to make Galaxy W ROMS

This isn't necessary anymore, the dsixda kitchen now fully supports our phone.
Get the dsixda kitchen from HERE. And unzip it to a place of your choosing.
REMINDER: This will only work on Linux and/or Cygwin. Tutorials for that are on the kitchen page.

You provide more than enough! Your first optimized ROM! I learn a lot by looking at it. Then, with this tutorial, I was able to build my first customized ROM by following exactly that you wrote.
You should change the "**MIGHT**" work to "**SURELY**" work!

Thanks for the compliment.
I will keep the **MIGHT** because there are always people who try crazy things (me included) like random porting of ROMs so it's safer this way. xD

If anyone interested to try compile acro68 kernel, I recommend to look into this link: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Building_Kernel_from_source
Very detailed, step by step and only need to change the kernel source to point to: https://github.com/arco/samsung-kernel-ancora/tree/gingerbread (for GB)
Once the make is successful, you will get an zImage.
Now, in Kitchen, you should have already use option 20 to extract the boot image. Replace the newly generated zImage to get a shiny new kernel. Of cause, you need to pack it back and finally build your ROM.
Finally, replace the ./samsung-kernel-ancora/drivers/net/wireless/bcm4329/dhd.ko to ROM's system/etc/wifi/dhd.ko.

Hello guys,
Latest Arabic rom link :
Here
Could you please make this rom deodex ?
I am trying to make it using dsixda kitchen but I could not.

i found something in this forum....can this mathod used for sgw?look likes same i follow some of the guide.....
Hey Guys,
I am going to explain some of the files in a custom rom,the small and easy to mod files because the aim is to educate newbies and NOT advanced devs.
Ok,So,I have seen a lot of questions being asked nowadays about making custom roms.This guide is NOT about building a custom rom but about editing and modding it.I am doing this guide taking CM7 as base,not stock,so there might be differences between the roms you choose to mod.Also,I am prone to mistakes here and there.If i made any,please comment about it and i will remove it.Also,please feel free to give your suggestions about making this guide better
What you would need:
Notepad++
WinRar or any other zip/rar manager like 7zip or WinZip
If you want go advanced,you would also need these things
Cygwin
Smali/Baksmali
APK Multi tool or anything like that,i dont care
And most importantly,a brain and eyes(So,Dont ask me stupid questions like,how de fuk du i xtarct? and then in brackets,sorry for my english)
GUIDE:
So,first up,download a rom of your choice(Dont forget to get the permissions for modding from the developer) and extract it.When you extract it,you will see 2 folders and 1 file,it varies.It depends on the contents of the rom.
The folders are:
1.META-INF
2.system
The file:
1.boot.img
So,
Open up system and the first folder you are going to see is 'apps'.
As you already see,this is the place where all the apps go,for the history.You might also see some .odex files below the apps.So,if you remove an app,you should delete the odex file too.If you want to add an app,just drag and drop Take care not to delete each and every app you find,because each of them has their own functions.Also,if you delete contact.apk and replace it with a better dialer like Exdialer,you wont be able to add or delete contacts.So,there are some files better left alone.
If you want to know how to merge them,then use google,there are a lot of tutorials on deodexing.If you want to edit an app,then use APK multi tool,again please use google,lots of tuts on this one too.
Also,you will find an app here and its a main one,systemui.apk By editing systemui.apk,you can get transparent status bars,transparent notification bars,centre the clock.Things like that.The idea with which you edit Systemui.apk and framework-res.apk,thats how your rom is going to look like.These files handle the visual things and they are awesome too.For some systemui mods,refer HERE
Next,the 'bin' folder,this guide is aimed at the noobs,so nothing about this,this is a bit advanced stuff,so sorry.
Next up,the 'etc' folder.There are a lot of things that go here.I wont be going to full details for the moment because i am having exams,so no time.However,i will be explaining the easy to explain files.
One thing you will notice is the 'init.d' folder.If you want to add any script like LagFree v2,just put the files of the init.d folder in the script's folder here,nothing else.You dont need to copy any other files like META-INF.
Another file,is CHANGELOG-CM,just as the name suggests its a file giving you changelogs
Another file is NOTICE.html..Its just a file showing copyrights and all that stuff.You wouldnt need to edit that,would you?
Will add more about the other files soon
Next,the 'fonts' folder..You guys need an explanation for that??
Next,'framework' folder.Here you will find framework-res.apk(Obviously,duh...).I wont tell about any other file because this is aimed at new users,not advanced guys.Framework-res is where all the icons in notification bar are.The battery icons,they are all in framework.Also,lockscreen icons
go here..Most of the icons.If i have to start on anything.It would take me weeks,theres so much to write about framework.Also take care not to mess up the framework.Because its like the skeleton(thats what i know ) of a rom.If a framework is incorrectly configured,the rom wont boot.So,keep that in your mind always when you edit framework.
Next,the 'libs' folder,This guide is aimed at newbies,so not touching this part.
And comes 'media'..Most probably you will find 2-3 folders here.Audio,bootanimation.zip and wallpapers.
If you want to change the default,its in build.prop,not here,i will explain that later.If you need to add some audio,its just drag and drop,nothing much,just put them in the right folders,like alarms,ringtones and notifications
If you need to add wallpapers,reszie the pictures to 640x480,thats the resolution that works for ace.Also resize it to 107x80 and save it as another pic with a _small at the end.For eg,the default file is defaultwallpaper.jpg,you make another pic with 107x80 called defaultwallper_small.jpg.
Then,theres the bootanimation.zip..However way you change this thing.Always name it bootanimation.If you want to know how to make a boot animation,then refer freeyourandroid.com
Next up is 'tts' folder..Sorry but i dont know much about this folder.I think this folder contains the languages for the tts app but i am not sure about it.Same goes for 'usr' and 'wifi' folders.But since this thread is aimed at newbies,i dont think there wouldnt a point in writing them up anyway
Next up is build.prop file.Open it with notepad++...build.prop file is pretty self explanatory.
Here you can change the most basic things like the android version that setting shows..Wondered how people are making 2.3.4 look like 4.0.3 in settings??Its build.prop.Also,you can change what 'About phone' shows here.
Other things,you can change things like,how long your wifi scans,how much battery your phone saves while in sleep,Dalvik VM heapsize and default ringtones.If you are wondering what # stands for,it signifies that,that particular tweak is not running,so you can take out the # if its a tweak you like.You could also use it say things like,Additional build properties.You could make it #AdditionalBuildProperties and go to the next line and give your tweaks there.Some build.prop tweaks can be found in slaid480's thread in Galaxy Ace S5830 titled "[MOD]Build.prop tweaks for SGA" or you can go to freeyourandroid.com and find some tweaks there,however the tweaks listed there are universal,so practise caution when playing with build.prop
Now to boot.img..Theres an awesome guide about this in freeyourandroid.com Please have a look at it,because there are lots to write about this one.This is where Cygwin comes in,for instructions on unpacking and repacking and commands and info about boot.img,referHERE and HERE.My summarized version,boot.img is where you can replace kernels.This is where you can make those low-level changes
Then,to META-INF folder.You would find lots of folders here but the file that you would edit consistently is update script.Find it and open it with Notepad++..Unless you edited xbin and bin files,this is not hard to do..Just change around ui_print to what you like.Dont touch anything else if you dont know what you are doing.If you DID edit xbin or bin files,you would need to touch advanced things like symlink tagged ones(I had to give them some sort of a tag)
Now on making it a flashable zip,archive them to a zip file.Get a signer here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...96&postcount=2
The instructions on using that are given with it.Just rename it back to the name you like after signing it.

ganesh...will this work on stock ROM ?

Automatic Splash Image Creator (PNG to Flashable Zip in One Click!)

This DOES NOT work on the i9300/note 2 and never will, please stop asking about it.
Please take all questions/discussion to the d2_vzw thread HERE because it is the only one I'll monitor!
Thanks to the work of invisiblek and some Google searching I was able to come up with the following tool:
This tool takes a 720x1280 .PNG image and converts it to a recovery-flashable splash screen in a single click.
A video so you can see what this changes: http://youtu.be/XXaBJTVQ2Sw
How to use:
Making your own splash screen:
0) Download and extract the .zip file
1) Make a 720x1280 .png image you want to be your splash screen (this comes in-between the boot animation and the quick Samsung logo flash)
2) Name it "initlogo.png" without the quotes
3) Place it in the PNGtoConvert folder
4) Run the "PNG-2-RLE.bat" file
5) You are finished! A "flashthisinrecovery.zip" will appear in the same directory as the batch files. Just flash it in recovery and enjoy your new splash screen!
Note: If you want the .RLE and not the whole flashable, it can be found as "initlogo.rle" in the "kernel" folder or you can pull it from the kernel folder inside the "flashmeinrecovery.zip"
Converting an .RLE that you made back to a .PNG for editing:
0) Download an extract the .zip file
1) Copy the "initlogo.rle" you want to convert to a .PNG to the RLEtoConvert folder. It must be named "initlogo.rle"
2) Run the "RLE-2-PNG.bat"
3) PNG will be in the PNGtoConvert folder named "initlogoOUTPUT.png"
Other notes:
I have included the stock initlogo as a .PNG named "initlogoSTOCKBACKUP.png" for your reference/backup purposes. If you want to test the tool with it, remember to rename it to initlogo.png
If you flash a new kernel/rom the splash will revert to stock. To get it back, just flash the "flashmeinrecovery.zip" again. You don't need to reconvert it or anything.
This has only been tested with the d2_vzw but will work with all USA (S4 CPU) variants!
Credits:
invisiblek for the recovery zip scripting

As always, even though this tool has been tested, nobody is responsible to damage to your phone except yourself!

More of an Theme thing.
Thread moved
Nice work OP!
FNM

wow! should be handy dandy when I'm done with working with my phone! Thanks OP!

Works awesome thank you, been waiting for this since having my Desire Z. changed splash screens on that one on a daily basis lol.
Side note, anyone want to resize .png's quickly online here you go works good.

Im stuck here. I created a png image with Paint.net and I used the program to make a flashable file. Then I flashed over JB and nothing changed the old Samsung splash was still there.? Any ideas what might be wrong.
(edit: I figured it out., sorry for the post.)

For Linux use this kitchen. If you're using Windows, use this one. I've actually had a better experience with the windows program but I've used both. You can use xpirt's image packer on its own but I think it's easier to just let the kitchen to all the work and they use the same tool plus you can deodex, Zip-aligned, and all sorts of other fun stuff.
