[ICS]Guide to editing Apks -1% battery, On screen buttons.. More to come in future

Ok i will say by now i have become ok at decompiling and recompiling apks....... It took some time to see what i was doing wrong
This guide is for people who want to get mods like 1% battery, on screen ics buttons etc....
I am not a dev so i wouldn't be able to answer all your questions if you have any.....
This is for ics only as GB handles it's resources differently
Btw this isn't necessarily the right way to do it but it the fastest I think and it works for me every time
If you still need help or it still don't work for you PM me and i will try help when am free .....

Mix and match???
Getting custom on screen buttons...
By now you should know what your doing so this will be short
Credit to atticus182 for his guide and amazing collection.... Thank him and download from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1413582
For This one you need systemUI.apk so decompile it and go to res folder then drawable-hdpi
Now copy the images you want from your favourite collection or you can mix them P.S you don't need the search since it's not enabled on our rom
Make sure for each one you choose it should be two pngs....
For example to change the home icon you need ic_sysbar_back.png and ic_sysbar_back_land.png....
Now recompile and push to your phone
Reboot and enjoy

Here is an example of what I have done

2) much easier way
1) decompile you rom's framework.jar using apktool.
2) go to framework.jar/smali/com/android/internal/widget/multiwaveview
3) download this file.
- for stock, AOSP or CM9 based rom : http://www.mediafire.com/?1wkbjt1bxsqsjnr
- for AOKP based rom : http://www.mediafire.com/?zb4mm1aaas1c8oc
this zip contain MultiWaveView.smali. replace original file with this one.
4) recompile.
5) done

- ic_lockscreen_chevron_down.png
- ic_lockscreen_chevron_left.png
- ic_lockscreen_chevron_right.png (important)
- ic_lockscreen_chevron_up.png
and if you want, change lockscreen handle too.
- ic_lockscreen_handle_normal.png
- ic_lockscreen_handle_pressed.png

CENTER CLOCK MOD​
here are the modded files if you don't want to work this by yourself.
Ok guys, this is the way for make center clock on your cm10 build.
First of all, you need the apktool, zipalign and baksmali/smali tools that i'm going to provide you within this tutorial, notepad++ on your pc and root explorer on your phone.
Here is the step-by-step (on windows):
1. Extract apktool to a new folder.
2. Copy framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk from your phone or from cm10 zip to your apktool folder.
3. Create a backup file of your original SystemUI.apk, name it whatever you want (preferably, backup.apk)
4. open cmd and go to your apktool folder.
5. Set up your framework:
Code:
java -jar apktool.jar if framework-res.apk
6. Now Decompile SystemUI.apk:
Code:
java -jar apktool.jar d SystemUI.apk
7. In explorer, open your apktool folder and look for this path: /SystemUI/res/layout/
8. Open with notepad++ status_bar.xml and copy the following code:
Code:

9. Save your status_bar.xml
10. Recompile your file
Code:
java -jar apktool.jar b SystemUI New_SystemUI.apk
11. Once it is done building you need to open the backup apk you made at the beginning with Winzip, Winrar, 7zip or your prefered compress tool. Also open New_SystemUI.apk with Winzip, Winrar, 7zip or your prefered compress tool. From inside the New_SystemUI.apk drag resources.arsc and classes.dex to the root of backup.apk and it will replace resources.arsc that is in the apk. You are almost done. From inside New_SystemUI.apk drag the res folder into the backup apk.
12. Copy this modified backup file to Zipalign folder and run the ZipAlign executable. Then run the .bat file. You will find your zipaligned file on the "ZipAlignedApps" folder.
13. Copy the file to your phone.
14. Using Root Explorer, copy your new SystemUI.apk to /system/app, and set 644 permissions ((rw-r--r--) or (tick Read: owner, group, others / Write: owner)
15. Reboot your phone and Enjoy!!!
SMOOTHCROLL MOD​
Here is the step-by-step (on windows):

Nice...Its always goog to guide normal users about how to.

I feel sorry to bother you,
but I did the steps according to your guide, even I did not change anything, but my SystemUI got force close.
Have you got any idea why it does that?
Thanks in advance.

Ok, it seems like the code wasn't placed well. Check the code syntax with this
That might solve your dissapering statusbar

I tired and it said that "No error detected.", but I get FC.
I do not know what can be the problem because I do not modificate anything, but I get FC, it is strange.

Can I try this on Paranoid Android 2.0 ?

OP re-opened and guide updated. Now should work well. No FC and no statusbar dissapering.
About PA 2.0, it should work since it's based on Quarx's builds.

Hello,
I have some remarks.
First of all, the point 10 is wrong in this case because we should use this command:
java -jar apktool b SystemUI New_SystemUI.apk
And there is another remark that I cannot put into words so here is the code:
<TextView android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Battery" android:gravity="left|center" android:id="@id/battery_text" androidaddingLeft="4.0dip" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_marginRight="-3.0dip" android:singleLine="true" />
The interesting one is the "android:gravity="left|center"" causing battery text to orient middle of the status bar.
android:gravity="left|center" is missed from the original code.
Sry for my English.

Thanks, this guide works for me on Quarx' s Defy+ build 04/09
Now i' ve Center Clock, and no FC or disappearing for status bar, thanks :good:

Java was not found (Smoothscroll)
FIXED:
If anyone runs into the problem of "Java not found" - INSTALL the Java Developer package!
Noob error!
Hi
Referring to the smoothscroll instructions,
1. Extract the baksmali/smali tool to a new folder and put the framework.jar in same folder.
2. Run baksmali manager.bat. - Get an error saying "Java was not found, you will not be able to sign apks or use apktool" (I definitely know I have Java installed.)
3. Select framework.jar by pressing 4 -> 2 in main menu.
4. Press 1 to Baksmali the framework.jar.
5. Make it sure that new 'framework' folder is created and files inside it. (Don't close the baksmali manager window yet!) - assuming this folder hasn't been created due to Java not being found in step 2 above?
Also, copied the Pre-made framework.jar to the system folder..and the phone didnt reboot into CM10.
Appreciate any advice on how to make smooth scroll work

Thank you very much I've wanted a center clock for a while now, and figured I might as well do smooth scrolling while I'm at it. Don't regret it one bit.

crashes with FC on SystemUI
Hi,
I've followed your guide for CM10 Nightly 20121001 and 20121011 versions.
I'm trying to get center clock on my status bar for weeks but i get a FC when I reboot the phone and status bar disappears...
hmm.. I tried to understand the code by comparing with the original status_bar.xml from CM10 nightly and what I saw was just re-ordering and changing parameters for the clock...
so i decided to just ctrl+c ctrl+v the code you've provided. however, it gives me FC... (my device is Nexus S)
any suggestion??

That's because this mod is designed for Motorola defy. I suggest you that you use search function on xda to find proper code for your specific status_bar.xml

[MOD][GUIDE]Windows Phone style Task Switcher for Jellybean.

REQUIRED STUFF.
-- Apktool. 1.5.0 works best for me, but if not, a previous version is fine too.
-- framework-res.apk from ROM.
-- SystemUI.apk from ROM.
-- Knowledge on decompiling, recompiling apks.
-- Notepad++ recommended.
HOW-TO.
-- Copy framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk to your folder.
-- Install framework-res.apk. This step is important.
Code:
apktool if framework-res.apk
-- Decompile framework-res.apk
Code:
apktool d framework-res.apk
This will give you a folder called framework-res. This is your decompiled apk.
-- Decompile SystemUI.apk
Code:
apktool d SystemUI.apk
This will give you a folder named SystemUI.
-- Alternatively, you can specify the folder name to be created. For ex : i want framework for framework-res.apk folder :
Code:
apktool d framework-res.apk framework
This will name the folder framework.
OR
Code:
apktool d SystemUI.apk System
This will give you folder named System for decompiled SystemUI.apk
==================================================
IN FRAMEWORK-RES.APK
-- Open framework-res folder. Navigate to res/values, right-click on Dimens.xml and select 'edit with Notepad++' or any other you may prefer.
Find default values of the following values and change it to given values.
res/values/dimens.xml
Code:
<dimen name="thumbnail_height">270.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="thumbnail_width">192.0dip</dimen>
===================================================
IN SYSTEMUI.APK
-- Save file, go back and open your SystemUI folder and open the res/ folder.
-- Copy paste the following code by editing specified files.
res/values/dimens.xml
Code:
<dimen name="thumbnail_height">270.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="thumbnail_width">192.0dip</dimen>
res/values/drawables.xml

-- Recompile SystemUI.apk
Code:

-- Recompile framework-res.apk
Code:
apktool b framework-res framework-res2.apk
-- Open SystemUI.apk and SystemUI2.apk with 7-zip. Select open archive.
-- Delete resources.arsc, classes.dex and res folder from original SystemUI.apk
-- Copy resources.arsc, classes.dex and res folder from SystemUI2.apk and paste them into the SystemUI.apk archive.[/COLOR]
-- Now, here, i usually use Apk-Multitool but you can use CMD too. Now you need to zipalign SystemUI.apk. There are different methods, best is to download APkMultiTool and do it. Or if you have the SDK, you can do it directly through command prompt or terminal.
-- Connect phone to PC.
-- Copy SystemUI.apk and framework-res2.apk and rename framework-res2.apk to framework-res.apk.
--Move SystemUI.apk to system/app and set rw-r--r-- permissions. Move framework-res.apk to system/framework and set rw-r--r-- permissions.
-- Reboot and you're done.

What he said. I've mentioned the dpis for the Ace, to do it for another device, you OBVIOUSLY need it to be for jellybean, and the only thing you need to change are the dpis according to yourself..

As in, I meant what are the default values?
I don't have the ace jb systemui, so i don't know the default values..
My idea was that for example stock dpi for height is 250 and according to your guide it needs to be changed to 270.
The change is 30.
So i'll add 30 to the stock dpi for the s3.
So, i was asking for the default values.
Thanks again for your guide.

-_-
Thats why it bugs for you

great mod dude, thanks:good:

Hey guys,
What's dip or dpi? I thought DPI defined the "visual resolution" of the screen?
For instance, if my device has a screen res of 800x480... for the respective dip changes do I just take 60% of the screen res values?

For instance, if my device has a screen res of 800x480... for the respective dip changes do I just take 60% of the screen res values?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Dip is different then dpi
If i was correct DIP was
Like
Pixels
So if ur screen is 320
Then when u set 320Dip width
And height is 480
And u set 480dip height it was fullscreen

[02/06] [How to] Custom txt/Carrier/center clock/custom icons/left side icons etc

Hello there
Here is a simple guide to add a Custom name to top-left status bar.
All You need is:
- Know how to decompile/recompiling Apk file
- notepad++
- Tool for decompiling, : apkmanager/apktool/Virtous/apkmultitools ...
1. Decompile SystemUI.apk
2. navigate to res/layout/status_bar.xml
3.Open Status_bar.xml with notepad++
4.Copy this line like the following example:
Code:
<TextView android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Clock" android:gravity="left|center" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:text="@string/hello" android:singleLine="true" />
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.phone.PhoneStatusBarView android:orientation="vertical" android:id="@id/status_bar" android:background="@drawable/status_bar_background" android:focusable="true" android:fitsSystemWindows="true" android:descendantFocusability="afterDescendants"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:systemui="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/com.android.systemui">
<ImageView android:id="@id/notification_lights_out" android:paddingBottom="2.0dip" android:visibility="gone" android:layout_width="@dimen/status_bar_icon_size" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:src="@drawable/ic_sysbar_lights_out_dot_small" android:scaleType="center" android:paddingStart="6.0dip" />
<LinearLayout android:orientation="horizontal" android:id="@id/status_bar_contents" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:paddingStart="6.0dip" android:paddingEnd="6.0dip">
<LinearLayout android:orientation="horizontal" android:id="@id/notification_icon_area" android:layout_width="0.0dip" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_weight="1.0">
[COLOR="Red"][B] <TextView android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Clock" android:gravity="left|center" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:text="@string/hello" android:singleLine="true" />[/B][/COLOR]
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.StatusBarIconView android:id="@id/moreIcon" android:visibility="gone" android:layout_width="@dimen/status_bar_icon_size" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:src="@drawable/stat_notify_more" />
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.phone.IconMerger android:gravity="center_vertical" android:orientation="horizontal" android:id="@id/notificationIcons" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_alignParentStart="true" />
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout android:gravity="center" android:orientation="horizontal" android:id="@id/clock" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.policy.Clock android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Clock" android:gravity="center" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:singleLine="true" />
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout android:gravity="right|center" android:orientation="horizontal" android:id="@id/system_icon_area" android:layout_width="0.0dip" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_weight="1.0">
<LinearLayout android:gravity="right|center" android:orientation="horizontal" android:id="@id/statusIcons" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" />
<LinearLayout android:gravity="right|center" android:orientation="horizontal" android:id="@id/signal_battery_cluster" android:paddingLeft="2.0dip" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.policy.Traffic android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Traffic" android:gravity="left|center" android:id="@id/traffic" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:singleLine="true" />
<include android:id="@id/signal_cluster" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" layout="@layout/signal_cluster_view" />
<TextView android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Battery" android:gravity="center" android:id="@id/battery_text" android:paddingLeft="4.0dip" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:singleLine="true" />
<com.erryy.BatteryText android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Clock" android:textSize="12.0dip" android:gravity="center" android:paddingLeft="4.0dip" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_marginRight="-3.0dip" android:singleLine="true" />
<ImageView android:id="@id/battery" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:paddingStart="4.0dip" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout android:orientation="horizontal" android:id="@id/ticker" android:animationCache="false" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:paddingStart="6.0dip">
<ImageSwitcher android:id="@id/tickerIcon" android:layout_width="@dimen/status_bar_icon_size" android:layout_height="@dimen/status_bar_icon_size" android:layout_marginEnd="4.0dip">
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.AnimatedImageView android:layout_width="@dimen/status_bar_icon_size" android:layout_height="@dimen/status_bar_icon_size" android:scaleType="center" />
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.AnimatedImageView android:layout_width="@dimen/status_bar_icon_size" android:layout_height="@dimen/status_bar_icon_size" android:scaleType="center" />
</ImageSwitcher>
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.phone.TickerView android:id="@id/tickerText" android:paddingTop="2.0dip" android:layout_width="0.0dip" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_weight="1.0" android:paddingEnd="10.0dip">
<TextView android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.PhoneTicker" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:singleLine="true" />
<TextView android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.PhoneTicker" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:singleLine="true" />
</com.android.systemui.statusbar.phone.TickerView>
</LinearLayout>
</com.android.systemui.statusbar.phone.PhoneStatusBarView>
"android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Clock" means that your custom text will have same colors and dimensions defined for clock (these are defined in /values/styles: 16dip and Holo Blue Light ).
If You want to add Your dip and your preferred color, just replaces above line with this:
android:textSize="15.0dip" android:textColor="#ffa6a6a6"
Code:
<TextView [COLOR="Red"]android:textSize="15.0dip" android:textColor="#ffa6a6a6"[/COLOR] android:gravity="left|center" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:text="@string/hello" android:singleLine="true" />
You can change text color and size to fit your needs.
android:textSize="x.0dip"
and android:textColor="#hex code of Your preferred color"
for example #ffdd4814 is Ubuntu Orange
5) Now, the last step:
Navigate to res/values/string
and add this at the end of the file:
Code:
<string name="hello">Your text here</string>
Like this example:
Code:
... <string name="quick_settings_rssi_label">RSSI</string>
<string name="quick_settings_rssi_emergency_only">Emergency Calls Only</string>
<string name="quick_settings_settings_label">Settings</string>
<string name="quick_settings_time_label">Time</string>
<string name="quick_settings_user_label">Me</string>
<string name="quick_settings_wifi_label">Wi-Fi</string>
<string name="quick_settings_wifi_not_connected">Not Connected</string>
<string name="quick_settings_wifi_no_network">No Network</string>
<string name="quick_settings_wifi_off_label">Wi-Fi Off</string>
<string name="quick_settings_wifi_display_label">Wi-Fi Display</string>
<string name="quick_settings_wifi_display_no_connection_label">Wireless Display</string>
<string name="quick_settings_brightness_dialog_title">Brightness</string>
<string name="quick_settings_brightness_dialog_auto_brightness_label">AUTO</string>
<string name="status_bar_help_title">Notifications appear here</string>
<string name="status_bar_help_text">"Access them anytime by swiping down.
Swipe down again for system controls."</string>
<string name="accessibility_sleep_button">Sleep button.</string>
[COLOR="Red"]<string name="hello">Your text here</string>[/COLOR]
</resources>
6) Recompile back ... enjoy!!

Thanks. I will try it right away. But a last question: Which decompile and compile application do you recommend? I tried APK multitool but I can not compile and i allways have an error 21 message.
Edit: in Androidmultitools, when i try to compile after changes you mentioned i got this error message:
"I: Checking whether sources has changed...

I am using win7 64 bit in Turkish. I think this happens because of language and turkish characters. Especially in Turkish majuscule (i) is (İ) instead of (I) as it is in mainly western languages. I think that makes a unharmoniesness in application. I changed clavier in english, but does not work still because language is Turkish. Unfortunately changing language is no t possible once you install it in certain langue. Now i will try it to do in linux. Many thanks for your help.
btw the way, i could not find d\systemui\sta tusbar\AnimatedImageView.smali. is there a typing error or is my bad?

yes.. i think this is the problem. If you will use apktool in a 64bit linux distro, be sure to install necessary dependencies to avoid error 2 during compilation, because aapt & others are 32bit commands and need ia32-libs package to work correctly ...
so, apt-get install ia32-libs

I tried during tha last 4 days to compile systemui.apk file using almost every application, but no succes. I tried it on my win8 tablet in english language. İt decompile and compile the file unchanged, but not changed one. I have not installed linux unfortunately. I would be very grateful if you try compiling in linux maguro_JRW66Y stock and changed systemui files added below.

Have You changed only the smali folder? Will I have to replace smali folder and recompile back?

ok.. I found the error
Code:
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.phone.CarrierLabel [COLOR="Red"]<TextView[/COLOR] android:textSize="15.0dip" android:textColor="#ffffff" android:gravity="left|center" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:singleLine="true" />
<TextView is a Class that displays text to the user and optionally allows them to edit it. A TextView is a fixed text...
Here You are using <com.android.systemui.statusbar.phone.CarrierLabel that let You to display the Carrier Label using smali to display a dinamic text
so You can't use two classes in one line
When You want to modify color and dip of <com.android. etc ... ... ... > You should add
Code:
android:textSize="15.0dip" android:textColor="#ffffff"
The correct one is this:
Code:
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.phone.CarrierLabel [COLOR="Red"]android:textSize="15.0dip" android:textColor="#ffffff"[/COLOR] android:gravity="left|center" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:singleLine="true" />
For example, in KBmeter guide, if You wanna change the color and dip of the kbmeter
Code:
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.policy.Traffic android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Traffic" android:gravity="right|center" android:id="@id/traffic" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:singleLine="true" />
Then delete android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Traffic"
Code:
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.policy.Traffic [COLOR="Red"]android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Traffic"[/COLOR] android:gravity="right|center" android:id="@id/traffic" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:singleLine="true" />
and add android:textSize="15.0dip" android:textColor="#ffffff" ... like this:
Code:
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.policy.Traffic [COLOR="Red"]android:textSize="15.0dip" android:textColor="#ffffff"[/COLOR] android:gravity="right|center" android:id="@id/traffic" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:singleLine="true" />
Once done, You can delete also the style You created in /values/styles.xml
Code:
<style name="TextAppearance.StatusBar.Traffic" parent="@style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Clock">
<item name="android:textSize">14.0dip</item>
<item name="android:textStyle">normal</item>
<item name="android:textColor">#ffffffff</item>
<item name="android:textAllCaps">false</item>
</style>
and recompile back

All changes properties work great. The only thing left to do is changing the color of the signals and the clock from blue to white like others. Could you give me some ideas about how to do it please, if you dont mind. Many thanks.

For clock:
decompile systemUI I give to You yesterday
Navigate in /res/values/styles.xml
and open it
search for
Code:
<style name="TextAppearance.StatusBar.Clock" parent="@*android:style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Icon">
<item name="android:textSize">16.0dip</item>
<item name="android:textStyle">normal</item>
[COLOR="Red"]<item name="android:textColor">@*android:color/holo_blue_light</item>[/COLOR]
</style>
Change it like this:
Code:
<style name="TextAppearance.StatusBar.Clock" parent="@*android:style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Icon">
<item name="android:textSize">16.0dip</item>
<item name="android:textStyle">normal</item>
[COLOR="Red"]<item name="android:textColor">#ffffffff</item>[/COLOR]
</style>
@adamslast
To change icons to white simply copy and paste this resources in drawable-xhdpi (in decompiled SystemUI) folder overwriting the originals ones

FAQs
EDIT: Sorry for the wrong info, please read the first Q and A again. thank you
Q: Why music controls not working?
A: There's something you need to modify on MusicUtils.smali, according to sir @PineappleOwl, for a while, use the lenox music that has been attach my sir @GSculerlor around here, just look for it
EDIT: Download MusicUtils.zip on attachment and extract it on your Music.apk/smali folder.
Q: My album art is not updating/changing/not the same with my music album art?
A: It is because the data from your old music, (maybe u use other player). Clear the data of your old music and stock music then check it again (Credits, Mark[email protected])
Q: No AlbumArt when my phone is plug into Computer?
A: Yes, to avoid force close/hotboot.
Q: F*ck! My phone reboots when I unplug it from the Computer.
A: Wait for your sd card to be scanned then unplug it. Patience is <3
Q: Some alien options on CustomizableParts, how to use it?
A: Follow my other guides.
NOTE
Changing Song will be a bit laggy because it is updating.
You can Put it on other layouts of lockscreen (Pattern lock, Pin, etc.)

Ill update the thread, i saw that also, in lockscreen, Cm Style is a bug. Please avoid using that for now sir. Catching intents in lockscreen is complicated, that's why I can't also catch the trackname on lockscreen. </3 By the way, thanks for reporting :good:

Wow, awesome sir. Thanks
