[X1/X2] Editing camera interface (v1.2, PC)

Blob Editor for PC
Version: 1.2
I've made a little tool that helps to edit camera's interface.
Supports both X1 and X2.
As you know, interface is packed into images.blob. Now you can replace any image there.
Also you can edit sounds.blob with it
Version history:
v1.2:
-fixed sounds replacing bug
v1.1:
-added command line support. Now you can assign it to *.blob files.
-F1 and F2 now replace or extract current file
-minor interface fixes
v1.0: initial release
Mini-Guide:
1) Get you images.blob or sounds.blob file from \Program Files\XperiaCamera\Resources
2) Open it in BlobEditor
3) Find any images you want to replace and press "Replace". It is better to extract all files (they will have internal hex-identifiers, not just an order)
4) Save. Move to \Program Files\XperiaCamera\Resources. Enjoy!
Screenshot:
Attachments:
BlobEdit - editing tool.
ExampleUI - little changed X1's UI. Changed arrows in options and "play" image in gallery.
images_x2 - may be someone wants to "port" X2's interface to X1? You are welcomed!
sounds_x2 - sounds from X2

Maybe write a mini-guide on how to replace the files? I thought it was a .cab app for xperia and all the work was done on the phone.. But I dont know where the .blob files are located in the phone memory in order to replace them :/ Any help appreciated ^^

Hi
If I'm not wrong, you're "ultrashot" from "mobilefree"?!
You & your friends converted my K750 to nearly a smartphone.
Glad to see you here!
@ all: ultrashot is a master in developing.
Thank you for all your works.hope to learn a lot of things from you.
I tried the editor and it works for me.
If you add "Drag & Drop" feature it's better I think.
thanks
@ chichoko:
It's a computer Program.
By default the files are here in X1:
/Program Files/XperiaCamera/Resources/
PS:
could you share X2 Camera Sounds too?!

Good idea, but I decided not to do this because of some reasons. But I've added F1/F2 shortcuts.

Ok, shared. They seem to be the same as X1's (only one empty sound added)

Thank you very much.
I'm sure you will bring new eXPERIence to XPERIA
I hope learn many things from you.

i think it means "ORIGINAL POSTER"

rotastrain is right. Quoted from Wikipedia:
"OP, short for original post or original poster. Used on online message boards and forums to denote the first post (or posting) on a topic often containing the original question or topic of discussion."

Appreciated for the mini-guide! Will give it a shot later on when I get home.. Cheers!

It is not harder than MS notepad. You can extract all files, redraw them as you want and then replace all needed files.

So Great
Thankx

Well.. how do I make an audio file a *.bin file, so that I can select it with the application? Just renaming the *.wav to *.bin does give an error..
Other than that: Great, I've always wanted to get rid of some the camera sounds..

dsip, thanks, fixed. Check first post.

Oh, it wasn't actually me. Thanks for fixing it, works perfectly now.
I might very well imagine it, but using your sound.blob with the extra "slot" for Sound "D" felt like it made the menu of the camera somwhat slower. I haven't tested it or anything, and I just replaced the sounds in the old sounds.blob without a "D" in it. (Using an X1 that is, obviously.)

Contents.xml

You could extract this file from *.FFS or grab from handset.
Maybe some tweaking possible...

I already tryed to increase the max. resolution to 8000x8000px for jpg a week ago but it didnt worked
This file exists 2 times and I flashed them correctly to the wave (tested with sTunes after flash), the limits seems to be set somewhere else...
The image sizelimit is also higher than 4096000 byte (or what it is) - about 10 mb.

I would have liked to tweak this setting to 200 or more and see but unfortunately there are not that many good apps to install.
<MaxInstallCount>
<NativeApp value="300"/>
<NativeWidget value="50"/>
<JavaApp value="-1"/>
</MaxInstallCount>
Btw, what does this Java value mean ? Could it be that it controls whether to show icon in Menu or not ?

@ st0rmi
Thanks.
Yes, via sTune this file is twice.
It seems writeprotected files are most in folder SystemFS... as Backup.
If you check via TriX Firmware files. Then Contents.xml is in *.FFS... maybe edit before flashing. Then changes in both files on handset.
Not tested yet...
@ rex4u
At the moment I have nothing changed in this file, so no idea what happens.
Maybe soon few tests...
Best Regards

@adfree: Yeah thats what I have done
I just used sTunes to copy the contents.xml back to my pc and view if the edited xlm are really on my phone because it didnt worked...

@adfree
No bro' I was offering my own suggestions to this configuration file.
It might allow us to install more than 100 apps in phone and show in Menu.
Second it might show Java apps icons in Menu.
My 2 cents

xml parser
please help me
a want to parser punker xml data base.

it's into the 'app counter' field, '-1' may be means 'unlimited' number of java apps installable, but I haven't read yet the whole xml... anyway if it is editable it's an interesting thing..

I saw that file a while ago while looking for something inside my phone (very special thing that made me to copy the whole phone)
there is a lot of interesting things but i never tried tweaking it
Maybe if someone have enough knowledge to add few new extensions and test them
Also removing some stupid limits would be awsome
Sorry i've no time to test that with you guys but would appreciate results
Best Regards

You dont need modif ffs or other just use pfs file to modif what you want and in real time direct phone flash pfs file and not have write protect problem
Just says Thank
Example file : dont give attention of boot img cause i dont take time to do it in 800x480 but its 400x240 then its make bug but with pfs file you can upload anything you want to change !!!
Good hack !!!
Maybe with this you can create dual boot or i dont know what a pro smoker can do, you can also try to put her rc2 or rc1 directory i dont try it !!!
Download example, in this one you can see SystemFS and Registry directory, off course you can put her all directory you want to flash pfs, using trix to modified or wave remaker more faster :
https://rapidshare.com/files/809973956/Circle.pfs
An idea its like you can make your one firmware with personal Widget installed and other idea welcome....Just take file registry and Widget folder on phone and put it on PFS

PowerOnOff Animation

Lets start again with these Pictures *.img
Header
compress LZ
Okidoki... seems compressed.
Now I found in bada SDK files.
Original BMP files from little bada...
Check out:
PowerOnOff.ini
AnimationType=bmp
Then also PowerOnFlash=power_on.swf
Maybe we find working solution.
Theory:
1.
Find way to decompress or compress to make valid *.img.
2.
Change *.img into something else accepted from handset...
*.bmp
*.swf
Maybe QMG is possible, like in Themes?
*** who knows...
3.
Do nothing... wait...
Best Regards

I think it's more power_on.swf than img files.
If possible if I find someone who works on flash, will try second possibility.

Sorry,能用中文解释下吗?thanks

What we know about *.img
Resolution is 480 x 800 Pixel (S8500/S8530).
"Level 1"
Find *.img with 1 Color...
I found black.
Then I replaced all files by same black Image...
"Level 2"
I need second Color... I think I know where to find... I think it will be white...
Best Regards

So I have now 2 Colors. Black and white, both are 480 x 800 Pixel.
If you compare both files you see around 391 Differences... hmm most Value:
F8/F0
Please. I wish to find more 1 Color *.img files.
Maybe then users with more brain can find algo, or Tool exists to create these Pictures...
Best Regards

I think I know what it could be... maybe.
TIFF compressed Bitmap *.tif ... LZW Compression.
Maybe some Header changes...
Edit...
Several Compressions for TIFF exists... depend on Grafik Tool...
PowerOnOff.ini is 3 times in Wave... if different depend on Branding:
\Registry\
\Settings\Default\Registry
\SystemFS\Settings\PreConfiguration\Default\Registry
All 3 files are not writeprotected. You could:
(A) Delete PowerOnOff.ini
Silence + no Animation
(B) Edit PowerOnOff.ini with other path to folder... maybe:
PowerOnAniImage0=/Mount/Mmc/PowerOnOff/Image/poweron_00.img
instead writeprotected folder
PowerOnAniImage0=/SystemFS/PowerOnOff/Image/poweron_00.img
Best Regards
Edited again.
Tested, yes it works.
I've changed path to Memory Card. Now I can play faster...
Very simple.
1.
Copy PowerOnOff folder to card.
Attention, if you choose subfolder, my path is only for Root... check exact folder or edit PowerOnOff.ini again.
2.
Copy my example to folder:
\Registry\

Nice how do you extract the bmp files?
Edit: look this video you will love
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Er9fhJWNL70

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=Y65D7LR1
Here are 3 different Animations:
DREI
T-Mobile
PRT Poland
In combination with my modified PowerOnOff.ini you can easily switch between them.

... ... Friends IMG to edit the files and use them in the device I found this program that uses the QT ... thank by psycoy
http://www.4shared.com/file/weq4iPSk/Alcis_IMg_editor.html

@ psycoy
Please, can you upload 1 selfmade *.img as example?
I'm not smart enough to use your Tool.
*.img not open
And if I import an *.bmp and save... the result is not the same like valid *.img.
Please enlight my little brain.
Thanx in advance.
Best Regards

I've reduced PowerOnOff.ini to only poweron_00.img and poweroff_00.img.
So I can faster Brute force...
And I see better result...
Attention!
Once I made an mistake in PowerOnOff.ini and result was Bootcycle.
So please only try at your own risk.
Best Regards

Thanks a lot adfree, you find 3 animation boot
Just try it changes from bada animation
You are making great job

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=T5YF5620
I've "fixed" T-Mobile Animation, as they "forgot" 4 Pics from bada Animation...
Maybe this was the reason, why second folder only used.
I've added Orange Poland Animation...
So I have 5 Animations (second T-Mobile not included).
Maybe someone know more Animations?
Eplus?
O2?
There are many Operator... i hope.
S8530 also possible, as same Resolution.
Best Regards
Edit 1.
Found more Animation(s)
Found third Color... Now I have black, white and red.
But red is complete different and double in size... strange...

New attempt.
Created 480x800 black and white Pic and converted into QMG (Theme).
As I thought Idle_Background.qmg converted into IdleWallpaper.cbm could help.
But, QMG is to small... only 1 KB
CBM is tooo big... 1,5 MB
My black or white *.img only 51 KB...
Best Regards

adfree this is cool. I've been wanting to get to the bottom of the .IMG file mystery for awhile now.
The Alci's IMG Editor program is a mod tool for the GTA San Andreas game. I tried opening a .IMG file and it didn't work for me either. It's possible theres no connection with the QMG .IMG files at all. I'm not sure what the QT reference is in relation to.

Found 2 new Animations from American Firmware:
Entel and ViVo
Found 4. color... blue

[Q] fix Wave III lock screen

Hi !
as you know Wave III lock screen have a problem with incoming massage ! it doses't show the message first time.
i think it's because of the SWF script . i have NOT any knowledge about Falsh Script but i think you may help me.
i just can get the ٍُّSWF scripts with "Flash Decompiler Trillix"
can any body (with enough knowledge) compare tow scripts and fix the problem?

Although I dont have any flash knowledge, I am trying to check this with the default lock screen of 5750. I was able to port it to get it working on wave 5750. Need to check the file you have provided.

I am not sure if Flash Decompiler Trillix allows editing of ActionScript.

You can edit the whole *.swf.
ALL parts of it.
But you need Flash knowledge or minimum reading with Text Editor...

After comparing the code of wave 575 default screen and the wave 3 lock screen, i am interested to try changing some things in the actionscript but i am unable to do that with this editor
Edit 1: converting to fla and back seems to be a pain and am looking for a direct editor like Zlash but its not free
Edit 2: found a good tool for direct editing. ASDEC. However, the change in code does not seem to have fixed the sms bug. Continuing further with further investigation using trial and error method.

240*400, which swf file do I need to work on? I will extract your firmware files. whats the path to these swf files?

I Think, it is "CallLockScreen.swf" or sth like that...
It could be found in RC1-file...
Do not have the exact path in mind...
Should be easy to find...
