Hi All,
A while back I put a CRT mod that I downloaded from SOMEWHERE on this forum on my phone...I remember there was also a file to remove it if you did not want it, I thought I downloaded both to my system but cant find either of them....Anyway I am sick of this CRT mod flipping my screen upside down and inside out so I want to remove it, but I have used the search feature and cant seem to find it! Can someone please point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance,
Mike
Check Caulkin's rom threads in dev section. I think i rememner something about that in the mods in his OPs

I believe if you have spart parts (market) set the window animation to fast and transition animations to fast as well, disables the CRT on/off mod
Thanks Member, After you posted your responce I did remember the CRT Mod was a file I found inside someone's rom post...I could not find it exactly BUT I did find another mod file "Calkulin's_Enable_Rotation_Animation_for_E4GT_v* zip" inside of Calkulins Rom post that said it disables the CRT Mod so I installed it and that seemed to do the trick!
Thanks Agian,
Mike

Overground: can we get a sticky?
reserved for faq
Alrite just a couple questions about theming and customization.
I would like to apply your red sense theme.
-Do I have to use a rom or can I just apply it on my rooted phone?
-If I have to use a rom which do you suggest so I can still use the original internet app that came with the phone?
Thx for all your help!
Sent you a PM about this actually.
Whats the trick to enable transparency? Particularly the notification pull-down. I have already modified framework-res.apk to include the transparent images, however they are not displaying transparent when applied to the phone. I read a few things about hexing, and even found a 'transparency patcher' program from droid-forums. This patcher apparently, does the hex work for you on services.jar. However, it did not do the trick. What am I missing here?
I'm running my own fully deodexed custom rom based on the 2.2 sense leak.
I'm working on Transparency as well...I contacted Xeudoxus at droidforums...hopefully he can help.
I would just like to know how to manually change my icons and or folders on my home screen and in my app drawer. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
I too would like to find out how to change the "Folders" icon from the plain manila to obviously something else.

All root themes will usually only work for the rom they are made for. Sometimes there are big changes to the firmware, sometimes little... a good rule of thumb is to always make a nandroid backup if your an early adopter. So long story short:
1. yes
2. whatever rom i made the theme for... you can only use the original browser app with sense

I have no idea... If you guys get ahold of Xeadoxus then let me know how its done. I have a feeling he'll tell you to download xUltimate though.

Changing folder icons/app icons: you're gonna have to theme the rom you're using
basic ingredients in no particular order:
1. update.zip- just download one of themes and the update script in there (META-INF) or make your own if you feel like learning the syntax
2. resigning tool http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3175518&postcount=2
3. 7zip for extracting apks
4. Android SDK
5. Lots of time
Start extracting apks and viewing the contents of res/drawable-hdpi---where you'll find icons
Most icons are named ic_launcher_XXXX.png, some are named app_icon, others are just simply icon... you'll have to look around to find them as there is no easy way to change them. Once you find the icon you want to replace, drop your new icon (with exactly the same name) into the same directory (preferably using 7zip since you don't have to have the directory extracted to replace it) and resign the entire zip file... flash zip and win!
So how much time do you think I would need if I was to do this? Just kidding looks like a pain in the ass. However, doable. Thanks for the link to signing the zip. Thought it just might be a bit easier. Hopefully soon I can change the plain folders to a picture of my girlfriend or something.

Signal Bars
I have seemed to try everything to change the signal bar(s) colors. I have changed all of the icons to a red theme and the only way I can think thats left is that it has to be hex coded. Important fact is I am running skyraider 2.0.1. Has anyone had any luck changing these?
I had this mod on my SGS. Anyone figured it out for SGS2 yet?
In the meantime while mods are sorting this for us I can recommend "Screen Off and Lock", which has a CRT TV animation.
for CRT effect do as below
Decompile framework-res.apk and edit the file \res\values\bools.xml
Change value of bool name='config_animateScreenLights' from 'true' to 'false'
Compile framework-res.apk
Out of curiosity, what do you mean by 'CRT effect' ?

The animation you see when you turn the screen off or on.
the animation that was taken from the Nexus S
like an old tube tv on/off

Does anyone know if the CRT effect mod is available to download without a battery mod attached to it also?
I only want the CRT animation but want to keep the original battery indicator. Tried decompling the framework res file but I'm kinda a noob when it comes to more advanced procedures. Couldn't get my head around APKTool or manager.

Do I just have put it randomly in the phone's memory/sd card and install it or do I need to put it somewhere specifically?

Instructions are in the thread. You have to replace your original framework-res.apk file, and need root access.
Thanks Rawat
Had my Galaxy S2 for 2 weeks now, rooted it, made a few mods and tweaks, waiting for my 16gb mem card to arrive and its good to go. Will have to bite the bullet and put my SIM in and retire my beloved HTC Desire
Finally found time to add this mod but i read through Rawat's other thread and it says not to install this mod if you're running VillainRom, which I am.
I know it is available in VillainTweaks but it also installs the battery mod which i dont want. I crashed my phone with force closes last time i tried to install an incompatible mod.
Use the file attached to this post then
NOTE: THIS IS FOR VILLAINROM KE7 ONLY.
I am kinda lost here.
I have KE2 on my phone. Came out ot the box that way. What file do I pick to get the CRT on / off animation on my phone ?
Will the KE7 file work or ?

this app is awesome and has some great screen off animations, like 10-12, no need to root for just one effect, this way you can get a bunch without the need to be rooted

I got in touch with a modder who created a script to enable landscape touchwiz in SGS ..he said he ll try,lets hope he succeeds
using my leisure time to figure out the solution..plzz recommend about this to modders if you know any...this can happen only if we unite..
Hi.
I had a look at your modded launcher from post #1 and it seems you are familiar with apktool!?
You only have to edit AndroidManifest.xml, change nosensor to user (see below)
Code:
android:screenOrientation="user"
What I read in this thread, it seems you have the same problems I had with my modded launcher
scheichuwe said:
...
It may happen that the first flash won't work (even with an alternative launcher installed). If that happens, restore the original launcher and retry again. Another thing I don't have an explantion for...

Second time you flash the modded launcher it should work (I don't know why).
And don't forget to install another launcher while flashing
Hope that helps
I can upload an edited apk when I'm back home, but it seems to be easier if you try by yourself (as I don't have a Galaxy Ace to test).
how did we get the scroll able status bar widgets..? i rememeber that they were ported (which is why we didnt have the 4g button at first cuz the phone it was ported from doesnt have 4g) but im trying to figure out what phone they are originally from it may help me with something...
I believe the scrollable status toggles were part of the TeamSbrissenMod. I think he's on the droid charge now.
Heres where I found his most recent ROMs with TSM built in. - http://www.imnuts.org/

ive started to try to make my own themes but im having one tiny problem, the boot ani
first i made a theme using ur el30 template which booted up saying "nashdogg" and i had no idea how to take it off
and now i made a theme using ur fc09 cut and paste rom but the boot ani always says "cut & paste" and i cant take it off
im not tooo great with all this stuff so the best i tried was applying a boot ani using uot kitchen which doesnt stick over ur boot animations so can u help me get rid of it or put a different boot ani please?
I'm going crazy, I'm crazy for putting my STATUSBAR transparent (100% or 75%) and do not see how. I have but I will not put him ROOT any ROM.
I tried to modify and apk with apk manager and nadaaaaa tools.
Can anyone help?, Someone I could pass the file already modified systemUI.apk?.
Ayudaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
Thanks in advance.
By the way I tried xda mods and all I've gotten is that it will delete the statusbar (then returned to the original meter and returned to his being).
