[MOD] MIUI Extended Settings Mod

It's time for a change...I think some might like the changes others might not..
I've created an App. (it's my first one so no laughing!!!)
It contains the same options you know and love and a couple of new ones!!!
The idea of creating an App is to cut down on the number of files I have to tinker with each week. It was taking too much time. This way I only have to modify the SystemUI.apk and the Launcher2.apk and I'm done.
Those users who couldn't use this Mod because of the changes to services.jar should now be fine..
Couple of things to note..
The option to Hide the Debug Icon is missing. I'm trying to work out a way of hiding the icon without modifying services.jar
If you change the battery Top Bar you might notice a delay of a few seconds before it updates.. (Just me being Lazy)
The Auto Close feature is now standard with the Launcher so the option to enable it is no longer needed.
There are three version
ESCenter - Center Clock Version
ESSwitched - Center Clock, Notification and signal icons switched.
ESRight - Standard version with clock on the right as normal.

Hope you like it!!

i strong heartedly disagree with the above poster. I'm on MIUI atm, and I get one full day of use out of my SGS, with HSDPA enabled /always connected, lots and lots of browsing, phone calls, sms, yahoo and whatsapp messenger online almost 24/7, some games, some BT transfers and some Wifi.
then again, I do know how to customize my SGS with black themes and various other settings to extend battery life...btw, no underclocking or undervolting..
no way you're gonna get the same level of polish and the same experience on Eclair..
just my 2 cents...
cheers!

Sorry but I think you must have seriously messed up something if it was that slow!
For me I find it just as fast as Juwe's rom if not faster!
Sorry back on topic, downloading now and will try it out Looks good!

Great work!
More please.

I would have to also tell you, yea there is...
Just because there are people like yourself who extremly are satisfied with it and consider it a top rom, doesn't mean everyone see it in the same light.
I stuck with MIUI with every version from 3 to the latest 5.3, it was my first ever custom rom, and as much as I wanted to like it I finnaly decided to give up on it for the foreseeable future. Even for someone who tried to like it was biased toward it it is more a gimmick rom for entertainment, than proper sgs rom you'd consider serious. Even tried to get my friends on it while I was on it, everyone hated it.
In my opinion it has great potential, but its still in its infancy. It is way to rough and misguided to be a good solid rom. Even going to a base 2.2 rom just rooted and lagfixed beats MIUI in almost every aspect. I finnaly don't feel like breaking my phone again. Almost every aspect of MIUI is different, which is where the appeal comes from, but somehow the difference is rarely for the better and it manages never to be as good even an original rom in terms of usability. At the moment I would consider it the poorest choice out of the the popular roms.
Since you will probably ask, the biggest downfalls off the top of my head I had with MIUI is unrelenting and completely unsolvable battery drain issues. This alone makes the rom not worth taking seriously. Calendar, the way you set your alarm, messaging, contacts etc, having to press double or more buttons to get to particular areas the stock phone does in 1, little things like that.
Laggy menus is another one.
I dont even want to get into how bad this rom is with the camera. Horrendeus software, menus etc, recording upside down, and on top of that it completely incapacitated the video recording of the phone. VErsion 5.3 and the videos still record at 3fps and the frames jump back and forward every 2 seconds as well...
heres miui on a good day for you.

hi there!
thanks for this! is there any way to implement the "tv-out"-settings into this as well? galnet is speaking about fixing/implementing it into MIUI, but atm he can't, since there is no option to enable tv-out on MIUI.
thanks!

Adding an extra option isn't that difficult. Getting that extra option to do what it's supposed to do is the tricky bit!!! )
If Galnet has managed to work out how to implement this feature I'm sure he's more than capable of adding an option to the settings menu but having said that I'm more than happy to help out if needed..

i understand that he can't test it because it's not in the settings menu..

I guess a "feet on the ground" option would be waiting for the official MIUI devs to support TV-out in future releases. Mind MIUI is still beta.

[ROM][CDMA][KANG] Miui 1.12.9 12/24/11

First and foremost, the script used to create this is from jt1134. My complete boredom wanted an updated MIUI build that will stay updated. This is my only android device worth a damn so I am just bored with it. Without his script I wouldn't have been able to do this. So many thanks to him.
Ported from the latest official fascinate rom and will stay updated. The theme in the picture is not default, it is only shown for theme working purposes.
Just flash in CWM Recovery

The lockscreen also is not centered in some themes, making it unable to unlock the screen. I had to reflash once.

Guys if you want to fix off centered Widgets you have to set dpi to 300

This is great news. Good to see one of the best ROMs in my opinion, MIUI, now available for CDMA Tabs. Keep up the good work!

I'm curious if GPS works in this build.

[MOD] CirclesMod for Galaxy Nexus

So of course I had to get a Galaxy Nexus. After having stared at its unimaginative statusbar icons for a few days, I felt there was a certain, circular aspect missing from its UI, so I took a deep breath and fired up Photoshop. I've kept the style similar to my previous versions of CirclesMod, but the icons are completely redrawn to make use of the Nexus' higher display resolution, and also incorporating some of my ideas from the Galaxy Tab 10.1.
Looks like this ...
{
"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_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The most convenient way to get the Mod is via the Play Store, if you're running CyanogenMod 9, AOKP, Gummy or another ROM that incorporates the CM9 Theme Engine... I'm in the process of converting my themes to this format.
http://c0.dk/cmicsblue
My website holds all other versions, and I encourage you to bookmark this link, if you want to keep track of my Galaxy Nexus downloads
http://circlesmod.dk...?s=dl&vl=gnexus
Disclaimer zero: I'm pre-supposing that you already know what to do with flashable zips, and that you accept responsibility for your own actions. Use your head, keep your device backed up and so on and so forth
Disclaimer one: You're welcome to modify or repurpose my work as long as it's not generating income and I'm credited with a link to either http://circlesmod.dk or this thread.
Disclaimer two: As for updates and versions, I'm not gonna do massive change logs and follow seven forums to cover the "market". I can't and won't spend all my waking hours building for any and every half-hourly KANG out there, so I'm inclined to pick one or two major ROMs and support that... I'm inclined to spend most of my time maintaining my Play Store theme(s) as it allows me to hit the greatest amount of devices with the least amount of effort...
Disclaimer three: I have the European GSM variant, also known as Maguro. Assume that my builds are for the GSM version. When in doubt, ask.

This looks awesome. I am too nervous to try it on Android Revolution HD 2.1.0 but if anyone else gets it working let me know!

I'm probably gonna try out Revolution too...I'm holding out for them fixing that reboot-while-plugged-in-equals-sleep-of-death-bug

Don't go out of your way to support ALL the ROM's because I can guarantee alot more ROM's coming soon. I'm sticking with supporting MoDaCo (Which I'm doing now) and Android Revolution.

Awesome, I loved your work on the SGT. Going to try this out on Android Revolution 2.1.1. That has been my favorite ROM so far.

Just installed this on Madaco's IR6. Also I'm using BRD Launcher 2.0 which is optimised for 240 DPI and it works great. One thing i have noticed is that when charging the yellow lightning bolt flashes twice displaying the percentage in-between very second. (Not sure if thats a feature or a bug) just thought i'd mention.
Is there any chance we could get a modded airplane symbol to?

Hooolm,
What app are you using to extract, zip, decompile & compile the apk.
Tried apktool yesterday, but had lots of troubles.
Wouldn't mind using it on 74K

Oh, I won't Since there isn't a stock Samsung or stock Sense ROM for the Nexus lines, people will tend to gravitate towards something like CM9, which suits me juuuust fine

Yeah, that was just part of the particular framework I baked for myself at modaco.com. Somehow I didn't think I'd like having my main action buttons jump around on me
As for AndroidRevolution, I'm a little bit intimidated by ROMs that want to completely reformat my device. I like having an easy exit strategy...having said that, people seem to be very content with that ROM.

Sure, although creatively there isn't much to do with that except slap an airplane over a circle
As for the charging flashing pattern, you're right - the xml is a leftover from one of my galaxy tab themes, where the lightning bolt would flash over the numbers like this...
That effect doesn't really work with the ICS overlay, it's just that one little thing I forget to change every time I build

Hey
I'm using APK Multi-Tool, specifically the nightly builds downloaded from GitHub. Works straight out of the box, just remember to register framework-res.apk, even though most of the magic is in SystemUI.apk.

Please make it available for 4.0.3 Galaxy Nexus GSM . This is super cool!!!!!

[SOFTKEYS] Cyan Glow Softkeys

Decided to make my own set of softkeys based on the stock softkeys, just less bright, and cyan to match the status bar icons. I've attached a Metamorph compatible theme that you can use, and should work on any ROM tested on stock, and on an AOSP build of 4.0.3, but unless your ROM has major changes to the SystemUI APK, this should work fine. Always a good idea to backup first just to be safe.
There is NO included Search key, so if you're using a search key mod, the search key will be the same.

Thanks! Glad you like them. I've attached the wallpaper as well; got it through Zedge, not sure where it originated, so it's not a full 1440x1280, but it scales pretty well.

so we flash this in recovery right?

Very nice, can you make them brighter though. I havent seen any cyan colored softkeys that are bright enough to see in the daylight real well.

Nope, just use Metamorph from the Market. Place these in /sdcard/AndroidThemes and launch Metamorph (you'll have to install Busybox as well if it's not already installed). Then just pick this one and apply.

Sadly, these are actually as bright as the status bar icons; the problem is that the OS dims them until they're pressed (if you press these you'll see what they're supposed to look like). I don't know if there's a relatively easy way around that or not.

does this have one for a search button or no?

very nice. would have been perfect if it werent for the 3 dot botton on the far right that shows up... even on main home screen. in your screen shots it dont show it, but i got it on mine

You must have installed a modification of some sort. This won't cause anything to appear that wouldn't normally; all it does is replace a few graphics. Are you running a custom ROM?

Does this only work if its being done do stock softkeys? I just tried metamorphing mine, after I have loaded another customized set of softkeys. After reboot, the softkeys disappeared completely.

Depends on what sort of customization. Mine were stock, but short of major changes to the softkey navigation, this shouldn't cause any issues short of design inconsistency if you have a search key. Try unpacking and applying it again. If you need a stock SystemUI.apk just let me know; I backed mine up before applying this.

Thanks, love it! Had to flash and reboot twice for it to work, but it did

Sure thing. I've attached backups from 4.0.2 (actual stock) and what I'm running now (an AOSP build of 4.0.3). Use whichever applies to your ROM, but I'd advise running a backup first before modifying it, just to be safe.

It's not a flashable ZIP. I only zipped it so that I could add it as an attachment. I'd assume you could use:
Code:
adb remount
adb push SystemUI.apk /system/app
but don't trust me on that.

They doesnt look so sharp.. is it the glowing? Wouldnt it look better if they was sharp as the icons in the statusbar? Is it possible?

I currently am running Android Revolution HD with the transparent soft key mods installed, along with some custom soft key icons that I made...
I can't stand the plain black behind the soft keys (while on the home screen), so I use the transparent soft key mod and then I add a dock to my wallpaper so it makes it look like I have a new background behind my softkeys.
This is my current set-up:
{
"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 where the problem lies -
I really want to switch to one of these AOSP roms for the addition of all the customization options, and power menus and all of that. But the transparent soft key mods that I was using, won't work with AOSP roms. Ive tried and tried, they just break the SystemUI and make the phone unusable until I restore my backup.
Im not sure why the mod doesn't work on these AOSP roms. I think it has something to do with how they modded the SystemUI to be able to customize colors and stuff right from the new rom, but whatever the reason, I can't use the transparent mod on these roms... but I can't stand the black background behind the softkeys while im on my home screen.
I have done a few mods myself, but mostly image edits/swaps and very basic codes. Im not good enough at it to figure this one out. Somebody should make a transparent soft key mod that works with these AOSP roms, or maybe incorporate a transparency option into the rom's settings. That would be really awesome.

I agree i will keep watch on this post!!

Yea, but we really need this for AOSP roms.....
Its the only thing stopping me from switching roms
Not that I don't like Android rev HD, but I like all the customization additions with some of the AOSP roms

This is sexy. I like it but what about while in apps or when the keyboards open?

While your in an app or anything like the like the app drawer etc... it reverts back to the black background... which is perfect for me... the home screen remains transparent and then it goes black on anything else.
It just sucks so bad, because I want a new AOSP rom so bad, but I can't live with the plain black on my home screen.

All roms for our phone are AOSP........
BTW nice setup

Thats strange, the transparent soft key mods worked on Android Rev Hd, an a few other roms, but every rom that I have tried that said "AOSP" in the title, the transparency mod broke the SystemUI. I wonder why, I really wish I could get this working with some of these newer roms....

I think it's not AOKP oder AOSP or something
Android Rev HD is based on Android 4.0.2 and nearly every other ROM is based on 4.0.3. Somewhere there is the cause for the problem, I think.

I tried both yours and fatsix on rootzwiki and I keep losing both my nav and status bars every time despite me using the correct zip. I even tried to decompile my own systemui and do that and ended with the same result. I'm hoping AOKP can add this soon as an option because I really just cant seem to get this working right.
also above poster, do yourself a favor and please just learn to search forums, its right in plain sight on rootzwiki under galaxy nexus, CDMA, Themes/mods, [MOD] Transparent nav/status bar.

lol OT, but thats such a badass wallpaper
