[APP]EC05/EG22/EH17 'Pay Phone' Dialer/s

This came from a request for a similar dialer to the iphone 'pay phone' dialer. I got all the kinks worked out last night and I am going to have 2 different versions; one which will be 100% custom graphics with PRESS effects and everything, one that replicates a pay phone using pictures for the buttons instead of graphics.
I flashed this to my phone last night and everything worked perfectly, I still have to make some changes to the PNGS for when you rotate the screen LANDSCAPE and possibly try and figure out how to change the Dialer Text color so I can theme the rest of the background without making it hard to read.
!!This has been tested on EG22 AND EH17!!
If you try flashing it to any other version, please make a backup of your system/app/dialertabactivity.apk before flashing so you can easily fix it!
Here is a link to the .zip. script needs updating, it shows your installing MMS lol

the original post has the EG22 which would be more likely to work on EH17. I can port this to EH17 also, just let me know!
should be a good port for EH17..
EH17-WORKING!- PORT PayPhone Dialer PICS
Please test these so i can add them to the first thread!!!
just back up the apk on your SD on EC05 and EH17 before flashing, if it FC's or anything, you just replace it with your backup and voila!

Market fixed at 240 dpi with other LCD densities in build.prop

Hey guys,after a while I realized that quite a lot of people prefer lower than stock LCD densities on their phones.At first I thought it was stupid,until I tried it and now I can't go back to 240 without swearing because everything is too big.
My problem,as everyone else's,is with the Market not showing apps as compatible.So two days ago I stumbled upon this guide for modifying the Market.apk.I did everything the guy said to the letter(although I signed using Signapktik on my phone instead of SignApk),and it worked at first.I don't know how and why,but is stopped working after a while and it still doesn't work.I've modified more Market apk's,including the newest 3.5.15,but it still doesn't work.
Below is attached the latest one I made.I think,if someone can do something to help,many people will benefit from this.
Thanks in advance guys!

Bump!

Lol, is somebody else confirmed is working just for some time or for a long time? From which thread is that guide? This market issue is really, really a big pain for me. I will be glad to help you and other somewhat to fix this issue.

Yay!Someone cares! Lol

Yes,this thing with the Market is a pain in the butt.The guide was just what some guy in the Android Themes and Apps section followed to mod Market 3.4.6 .In his thread reports were the same.It worked for some time and then stopped.I think it didn't work for everyone though.
However,my knowledge on apk editing is less than minimal.So I hoped that someone more knowledgeable than me would take it from here.I tried and,for the time being,failed.Maybe I will try again tomorrow...

Turns out that there is a temporary solution to density problems with the market.We just have to follow a certain procedure.So,supposing we all want to lower our lcd density and not increase it,we should do the following in the given order(as LordClockan's IceColdSandwich rom says-it's based on AOKP I think):
i)Using whatever method you like(I prefer Root Explorer,but you can also do it via other apps or even adb) change ro.sf.lcd_density=240 in your build.prop to ro.sf.lcd_density=160.
ii)Reboot.
iii)Once booted,go to Settings>Applications>Application Management(Or whatever,my menus are Greek)>"All" tab and find Market/Google Play Store.Clear its data.
iv)Go back to your homescreen,open Market/Play store and hit accept in the prompt.
v)Then again,change your lcd density to whatever value you want.Mine is ro.sf.lcd_density=200 for example.
vi)Check if it works.I suggest searching for Mobile Odin in Play Store because it shows up as incompatible with non-normal densities.You can check with any app you know that is incompatible with low densities.If it works,you're okay.If it doesn't,repeat from step (i).
I found that,if not followed to the letter,it won't work,so don't skip any steps.I hope this helps until a permanent solution shows up.Unless this is a permanent solution after all...

I haven't tried the above method yet but this version of the market works http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23336920
You'll need to make sure market updater is uninstalled but thanks for this, next flash I'll try this out.

Well,I'll make sure to give that a try next time I get trouble(almost sure I will ).Thanks
However,what makes the method I posted effective,is that it will work with any version of the Market,new or old.I for one am using latest 3.5.15 with no issues.

Can anybody help with the issue i am having in touchwiz. Changed the density to 200 and get following screen issue.

Well, yes: TouchWiz isn't designed to run on any resolution, so you're having this problem. The Email app and Dialer are smaller than normal - they're not handling other densities than 240. Strangely, Messaging works just fine.

Thanks. Oh well back to 240
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA

Why ? unless you have poor vision (which I can understand), everything looks much better at a higher density; you should see it on 160, it's like a shrunk tablet
Just get a better launcher (Apex Launcher or Go Launcher are both good) which can be adjusted for the new screen density and you're good to go ! perhaps get a new email app and a new dialer if their small size bothers you.

Tried launcher pro and it was fine. But the issue with email and dialer would annoy me.

[Q] How to get lockscreen back to stock in stock rom?

I can't believe I am actually asking this as a question. But I was neither capable to remove some 3rd party lockscreen from my gf's entirely stock SGN (rom-wise), nor did I manage to google for help.
Tried Go Locker and LockBot. I can choose a different Lockscreen but this new fella is now before the one I try to get rid off. So we actually have 2 lockscreens now. The 2nd one is easy to switch back off but the one below stays right where it is.
Here's what it looks like:
{
"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"
}
Also, you can set the phone to lock pattern. Works fine except for the lockscreen that again succeeds all other lockscreens. It's always the last barrier before you can use the phone.
Please be so kind and let me know where else to look for turning it off

The lock screen app your using, need to be deactivated... if that cannot happen, go to settings----applications---find that app----open it-----and press clear defaults-----bang problem solved

Thanks for the reply. My girlfriend says she never installed a lock screen app (intentionally). I was suspecting the range of Go products but uninstalling most of them (after going through all of their settings) didn't help either.
The question is what app might have caused it. And why isn't there an app that lets you default to stock? That's why I installes Go Locker and LockBot in the first place.
Actually this is quite a tragic flaw in Android. My gf totally diggs her shiny new SGN but is totally pissed by this lock screen. She never wanted it. She hates it. Now she starts hating the phone. She said she wanted a replacement...

reboot the phone then go to Settings>apps>running OR Settings>apps>running>show cached processes
you will find your app there

Alright, will check it out a.s.a. my gf is back from work. thanks

Dude, totally valid point. Thing is my gf ain't gonna like that

Or figure out what app it is. If it isnt installed anymore, reinstall it. Go to app info and before u uninstall it clear defaultz clear cache and data then uninstall.. i dont know if it makes a difference but thats what i do with every app i uninstall

Holy crap, dude! You nailed it. Rogue app called "Simply Locks". Is the on-phone search still disabled? because I used it to search for "lock" but it did not find Simply Locks.
Anyways, you guys made a little girl smile big time again.
Thanks

Extreme Bloatware Removal 4.1.2 Stock ROM Best Battery

I love the Note... the big screen, powerfull quad-core processor, 4G LTE... Huge 3,100mAh Battery... I like Samsung TW too...
But yes, that is all i use my phone for... CALL/TXT/WEB... VIDEO/GAMES PLAY... DOWNLOAD FILES AND MOVIES...
I dont use S Pen, dont make sketches or notes by hand, dont use Swipe or WiFi calling, I only synch my contacts with Google... nothing else... so i dont need any other features/elements of the stock 4.1.2 TW ROM so i deleted everything that isnt of use for me and that i know it wont crash the OS or give me FCs of the stuff i use...
Makes the ROM small and snappy, and gives me exelent battery life, almost next to none battery drain...
So before you bash me, consider that there are mybe other users just like me that dont need all the extra features running in the background, and want the best possible battery life...
I am posting screenshots of 4 pages Titanium Backup w the elements my ROM runs, 39 in total only, when you first load TB on a stock ROM it will read 250+ elements !!!
Before you freeze/delete anything, please make sure you wont need that service... for example, dont delete GoogleCalendarSynch if you use the calendar to make/synch notes and appointments...
You need some basic knowlege of what is what, and just freeze first and see if all your things you use are working properly...
I just decided to share the minimum elements to run properly the stock ROM and get the best battery with close to none drain when you dont use your phone...
OK, here is how my Titanium Backup looks like after i deleted every single element i do not use:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",

Moved on from the Blaze eh? While like you said this is not for everyone, it's always interesting to see the extreme scenarios and how things behave. Thanks for sharing!

Not for me, but that's good idle drain. I'm sure this will help some people. Thanks for posting

Hah yes sold the Blaze $170 got a nice Note 2 w 32GB card for $340, call it a good deal time to get me some LTE goodness i thinks haha.

I even factory reset the phone after deleted everything... to clear the caches and stuff...
Works just fine, the only thing i notice, i had to go to the Mobile Networks and change the APN name from the etc one to the fast, as i deleted all the pre config things from the ROM i assume it wasnt set automaticly, so phone didnt conected to the network automaticly...

Not sure if it was for the note 2 or note 1 but it was an aroma flash file that let u delete all the bloatware
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda premium

this is really useful. good to know that all the com. stuff are useless and can be frozen. was there any list you went by to see what each element is for? i remember there was a list available when i was using the s2, but haven't seen one for the note 2.
does anyone know which ones are needed for wifi calling? i need to keep those.
and also my phone keeps thinking it's new and keeps giving me info on how to swipe to unlock phone after every restart, is there anyway to stop that? i removed most of the stuff like the op, but is having this issue. pretty much my only problem aside from wifi calling.

This interests me greatly and i'd like to know if you just freeze the unused apps or completely un install them\
EDIT:
nevermind no one answer that i figured things out sorry

So is it a list that gives whats safe to unistall i would to try this as well

Mobile network settings on stock MC2[SOLVED]

Is everyone able to access them? When I tap it, it causes android.phone to force close. I hope I didn't miss this issue in the forums, or perhaps it is just me? Anyone else seeing this?
Btw, I'm running deodexed stock MC2, with the Perseus kernel and a couple basic mods, like hotspot and 4 in 1 reboot. Thanks

I am able to access them. I am on deodexed stock MC2 with hotspot, but not perseus kernel or 4 in 1 reboot. I almost never get any force closes. and I almost never reboot my phone. I have 309 hours uptime right now, and i have my phone running at 1.8ghz.

Nice! Yeah, I have no complaints about the phone or the ROM either... they rock! I just have that one issue for some reason. I forgot that I also have the hiddenmenu.apk from a previous ROM to allow for changing prl. But that's about it..

lol yep i have that one too. even though i almost never change my prl from the ugly 2000 prl anymore since sprint sent me an airave finally...

Ah ok lol, we have pretty much the same setup then, except for the kernel. Perhaps later I'll try the stock or another one

i think i was getting some force closes a few months ago when i was trying out other kernels, but i cant remember which ones i tried. Its been so stable and fast for a few months i haven't wanted to do anything to mess it up lol
edit... I got this speed test a few months ago too.

i am on completely stock rooted with as few mods as possible because my AllshareCast dongles don't work if my system says "modified" in about phone/status. i think i am even on stock mc2 recovery right now lol (i had to put stock recovery back on to get the status to say "Normal", even with using triangle away... :-/ oh well though, my phone is happy this way lol the only reason i only have 309 hours uptime right now is becuase almost 2 weeks ago i fell asleep without charging my phone when the battery was low :-/

Wow nice! Yeah, I have gotten speeds like that once or twice, there are one or two particular parts of West L.A. here that are really HOT on Sprint LTE!
Anyway, a quick flash of the Saber kernel didn't fix my mobile network settings force close.... I guess I'll try the stock kernel later and see. If that doesn't fix it, I must be missing something, lol.

I finally figured it out! I started thinking about things that I had either frozen or removed with Titanium Backup, and it was Sprint Connections Optimizer! I removed it because I didn't like how it kept turing on wifi when I was out and about, trying to connect to useless networks. I restored it and just kept it frozen, and now I can go I to my mobile network settings.
