[Q] UOT Overscroll Glow

I am running the OTA leak rom from Incubus and have made a few changes to the SystemUI.apk file via the UOT kitchen. I see an option for Overscroll Glow and was wondering if anybody could explain to me what that is?
Thanks,
Jeff

Open your app drawer and scroll to the end, you see the glow. It's basically to let you know there's nothing left to scroll to

Thank you. I don't have any glow at the end, but that is probably because I have not done the mod yet via the kitchen.

Basically looks like this

HTC Sense ROM's don't have the overscroll glow, I guess HTC didn't like it or something. But it's easily added back.

Actually all HTC Sense GB roms did have the overscroll. HTC has just simply changed the color to indexed black so it would be hidden.
BTW, for those people curious of the location of the overscroll glow:
Extract framework-res.apk and navigate to framework-res\res\drawable-hdpi.
Look for these two images: overscroll_edge.png and overscroll_glow.png. Thats the overscroll images. Also look at any of these new OTA GB roms and you'll see what I mean by HTC has blacked them out. How do we remedy this? Using a program such as gimp, open the image and change it from indexed mode to rgb and then just change the hue to whatever you like.

To be honest I added it in through the UTO Kitchen and wasn't crazy about it. Went back to not using it for now.

I put it in via UOT also, and so far I kind of like it. I am going to stick with it for a bit. Thanks for all of the help.

ANSWER located below in post #6 by Gitu Sum...Thanks again!!

I think you want dialeractivitytab not the phone.apk. You want to theme it right?

If you want to theme the dialer, you want dialeractivitytab.apk. Phone.apk is misleading...

Tw framework is a dependancy. Had this problem while optimizing and modding my rom.

I can theme DialerTabActivity.apk. That works fine. Its the Phone.apk that i wanted to theme. Well at least i think so... Im looking to theme the "In Call" buttons and in call dialer. Not the regular dialer. This way when im in call the Bluetooth, Speaker Phone, End Call, and such are themed. rather than the standard background and grey buttons like such..
Heres a pic of what i mean... This one is the themed one from Clean GB but still FC's on my
@marcusant... ya thats what i was reading somewhere but did know if there was a workaround. I noticed in Revival v.2 (what im running now) its not themed so i assumed maybe its too confusing.

Take the stock tw-framework.apk and put it on your desktop. When you go to decompile the phone.apk use 10. It will ask you what file. Just drag and drop tw-framework.apk into the window.

Thanks Gitu sum!! I just tried it and it worked perfect. i was able to edit some xml and compile it without any errors..... my only issue now is that when i install it to system/app it seems to work but when i call someone and then hangup..It locks up right as i hit the END button and FC. Then it resets my radio. Any advice as to why it isnt functioning correctly?

[Q] Has anyone looked into theming the lock ring

Has anybody looked into theming the lock/unlock ring on the lock screen like maybe changing the color or shape of it?

I believe plenty of people have done it already. Its a simple framework image that needs changing. 100% possible.

It s only one image like that, so you won't miss it

Just a quick 2 minute thing, but an example of what can be done.

Most of the images are located at res/drawable-xhdpi
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

I'm having a similar issue. Tries replacing images in both "drawable-sw600dp-xhdpi" and "drawable-xhdpi". I have replaced both "ic_lockscreen_handle_normal.png" and "ic_lockscreen_handle_pressed.png", but it just seems to cause endless bootloops of death. EBoD!
Please assist, as I would very much like to have a modified lockscreen.
Thank you in advance.

Keeping them the same size? they are quite large like 216X216(I think from memory)
A sample:
DarkHorse Revolution - NeXus Edition
How are you tryign to do it?
You dont need to the the ones in sw600dp-xhdpi folder, just darwable-xhdpi folder.

You could just get WidgetLocker, which in addition to allowing widgets on the lockscreen, also allows you to have alternate wallpapers, and modify the lock pictures and method (i.e. unlock like HTC Sense, Sense3, iPhone, as well as ICS).

[Q] How do I theme this part of the status bar? *top left*

I installed liquid rom v1.1 and that part was different, the icons were, I don't know, less transparent. The icons on the left were all solid colors. Never seen that before. Now, it has changed back on its own, for no reason I can think of and I want to change it back.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, I can decomplie, edit, and compile apk and framework just fine. Hopefully it's easy tho.

Oh yeah its a breeze. All you have to do is decomopile the systemUI.apk and find those .png's that you want to edit. Finish the changes with Photoshop or whatever you're using and recompile, and push it back into the system. I noticed that one of the icons was from titanium backup. You will have to actually go inti that .apk and edit those as well if you want to make them all uniform-which would probably take a million years haha
Edit:
Actually some of those might be in the framework apk just decompile both haha

I doubt this is the case. Why would ALL the developers use the same ugly greyish color. I'm sure its just a transparency thing.

Do you decompile with 1.4.3 and recompile with 1.4.2 (apktool)?

I've been using Apk_Multi-Tool_Alpha_02 with the github experimental builds addon. Not sure which version of apktool is in the "other" folder though. It has handled everything I throw at (except contacts & phone) without having to play one jar to decompile and another to recompile game.
good day.

[Q] Anyone know how to Mod the Stock CM9 MMS.apk?

Anyone else annoyed by the pesky MMS compression/conversion of the stock CM9 MMS.apk?
I've looked thru various tutorials and how-to's but they are all outdated. Most tutorials were written for Froyo/GB MMS.apk's.
Also, before anyone tries bursting my bubble , I really dnt like using 3rd party Messaging apps so I wanted to just mod the stock MMS.apk to disable the MMS conversion/MMS compression.
I've decompiled the apk and have looked thru its code, but can't seem to find the right strings to edit. Anyone wanna try n jump in and point me to the right direction?

yes, it's very anoying. im crazy about it, i don't link Handcent or any other sms app. Stock one is better

This developer has done it in his themed mms.apk -- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28507380#post28507380
I made an inquiry as how he has done it and if he responds, I will try modifying the stock apk.

Its a butt load of XML edits. Rootzwiki has an excellent tutorial.

This is the ICS AOSP Mms.apk from my I717 that does not have compression enabled. I'm using it on all of my devices now.

I will look into Rootzwiki as well. Thanks!

anyone know if the themed mms.apk's have the 160char issue? i know a lot of the gnex themed apps don't have certain settings etc that we need. at least, that's what i ran into before.

From what I remember from the themed ones, it had an option to show if your character count exceeded 160 it would split the message and how many messages it would be split into.
The one I just posted also has the split count option.
I would presume this means it will split long messages. is that what you mean?

yes, as long as the option is there to turn on auto split for 160 char it should be good to go.
Thanks!
Now if only he had one that was all white and black...

I have a pretty kick ass themed MMS.

One you customized? Looks nice and simple. You should post it.
I couldn't find anything quickly from RootzWiki about the XML editing. Do you have a link?
