Hi,
If you use other launcher that the TwLauncher (eg. LauncherPro or adwLauncher)
and you have deleted the TwLauncher application from /system/app,
when you make a large click on home button and the recent tasks list appears,
the phone reboots if you click the "jobs manager" button.
For prevent this, you can make a modification in framework-res.apk file,
in order to hide the job manager button.
the modifications are in the res/layout/recent_apps_dialog.xml and are:
line 2, change android:layout_height="320.0dip" to android:layout_height="257.0dip"
line 3, change android:layout_width="320.0dip" to android:layout_width="313.0dip"
line 4, change android:layout_width="320.0dip" to android:layout_width="313.0dip"
line 5, change, cambiar androidaddingTop="60.0dip" to androidaddingTop="0.0dip"
and android:layout_height="wrap_content" to android:layout_height="189.33996dip"
line 8, change android:layout_width="320.0dip" to android:layout_width="313.0dip"
line 9, change android:layout_marginLeft="10.0dip" to android:layout_marginLeft="13.0dip"
line 14, change, cambiar android:layout_marginLeft="10.0dip" to android:layout_marginLeft="13.0dip"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
to use it, decompile framework-res.apk with apkManager,
modify the related file, recompile and push the new compiled xml file
into the original framework-res, then copy the framework-res.apk into
the phone with adb.

Odd. After removing the TW launcher the Jobs Manager button works just fine over here. Never had any problem with it, with whatever 3rd party Launcher I've tried.

I have found a way to enable quick app switching (or what ever it is called) in the Mango emulator. It seems to be a little bit buggy but it works. Here is a screenshot:
{
"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"
}
Here is the how to:
1. Press [Windows]+[R]. A "Run" dialog should appear.
2. Now type in "notepad %programfiles%\Microsoft XDE\1.0\WM7_Skin.xml"
3. Find
Code:
<button
toolTip="Back"
onClick="0x3B"
mappingColor="0xF7941D"
/>
and replace onClick="0x3B" with onPressAndHold="0x3B" so it would look like this:
Code:
<button
toolTip="Back"
onPressAndHold="0x3B"
mappingColor="0xF7941D"
/>
4. Now start your emulator and press and hold the back button
Thanks but Why don't you just hold f1 button?
I didn't know about F1!
This does not work for me. I have the Mango emulator but the folder you said to that the .xml is in does not exist

maybe you got windows 64 bit
then replace %programfiles% with %programfiles(x86)%
so the path then should be C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft XDE\1.0\WM7_skin.xml
I just made these for myself, and I liked the way they came out, so I figured I'd share. Inspiration came from seeing my friends new droid 4.

Included in the .zip are the following files:
*Not a flashable zip, these must be added to your SystemUI.apk, search bar location is dependent on your rom*
Code:
ic_search_land.png ic_sysbar_home.png
ic_search.png ic_sysbar_lights_out_dot_large.png
ic_sysbar_back_land.png ic_sysbar_lights_out_dot_small.png

ic_sysbar_highlight_land.png ic_sysbar_menu.png
ic_sysbar_highlight.png ic_sysbar_recent_land.png
ic_sysbar_home_land.png ic_sysbar_recent.png

If you included a search button as well, I'd be in.

What do you mean by the whole set? I'm using the menu key as the recent apps button. I'll add the 3 dot 'menu' key I made along with the landscape png's as soon as I finish them.
Edit: Updated OP, added all necessary files/.zip with all .png's
Hi guys!
This is my version of Calendar.apk and Mms.apk with transparent background and other little changes.
First, you need first to modify you framework-res.apk following this guide. If you don't, the background will be black but the app will work normally.
Then, simply replace your existing apks with the attached ones.
Screenshots:

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Remeber: always perform backup before replace any system file! Also, I'm no responsible for any problems that may occure on your phone
Mms.apk added
Can you pls tell me where i find the strings that make the Background Transparent?
I allready done it for framework and contacts. But i cant find strings in mms.apk.
No Idea??
Hi, sorry for the reply delay. I don't remember exactly what I did because this apk is the result of a lot of attempts. Watching the code, I'm sure that I've modified style.xml with this line <style name="MmsHoloTheme" parent="@android:style/Theme.Holo" />. Also I've made transparent the "list background" under color.xml
Allreqady found it
But maybe you know how to change the Color of the Text when i use the Search!? Its white now and i dont found out where to change it.
Maybe it depends on framework-res, have you try to look inside (style/color/layout)?
Widget
The calendar widget is also transparent, right?

Hello guys!
I just want to share with you this little mod that i've made (big thanks to adi_aisiteru_reborn that linked me the tutorial)
As you can see in the picture, i've add the "%" symbol in the battery icon. It's not that much, just a little graphic mod, but here it is for all who want it.
hope you enjoy it
only compatible with alpha 4, when arsradu will update the ROM, i will update the systemui.apk too

}
for the newbie XD: to install it
1) download my systemUI.apk
2) use a root browser (the best, in my opinion, is root explorer) and, first of all, move it in "/system" folder
3) here, change permission of my SystemUI.apk in "rw-r--r--"
4) "Important" make a backup of your old systemUI.apk (it is in "/system/app" folder)...for the backup just copy this systemui.apk in the external sd card, to avoid any errors
5) then, push my systemui.apk (please be sure that you have setted permission like i said) from "/system" in "/system/app".
6) Confirm the overwriting with "yes", reboot and that's it

Now open the app and follow the steps and click start
After that we go from choosing a colore for the icons in homescreen all that by staing cklic on an icon to colorate it:
click between "Tile color"
go down to save changing
You chan put an image instead the colores
Now to change tile icon or visible,invisible it click on " change icone"
and choose as you like icons
To bind an app in the icons (bind means changing the app on the icon)
you can click on the white box between "Bind application"
The last thing is saving the changing to do so slow down the window and click "Save"
I think that's all for many question send your problem and Thanks :good:
For me I'm quite concerned about the amount of ads. Launcher 7 is a more better alternative for me.
