I take credit for nothing here except adapting it for rom im currently running (Docs JP6 v1).
It should work for any deodexed unthemed jp6 (used Docs update.zip script to remove theme as he uses some heavily modified stuff in his words 'optimised' framework that renders it useless for unpacking, repacking) so framework is stock except battery and i did it only to test if it will pack properly.
IMO this should be on every custom rom from now on.
Credits: lol almost everyone but ill try to be fair.
DocRambone- (actually requested this few days back but you prolly too busy lol) most prolific and my favorite moder here just hope he stays modest. wish you would do theme templates with your releases kinda like @enomther from Nexus does since you like tinkering with frameworks so much.
Tayutama- for bringing it to i9000 (M,T) although i think you credited wrong guy for this as well as being up there with Doc (wish you only released untehemed rom and theme as add-on).
LOL it seems that im paying homage and making requests at the same time
untermensch- who brought it to galaxy S (vibrant guy) for wonderfull instructions HERE
true credit of this mod concept is lost in history as most others have it for ages
sztupy- for being my favourite Hungarian
RyanZa- for being part of every important discussion
Supercurio-for always being open to suggestions no matter how popular you get
Kalpik- for popularizing battery mod and is gaining momentum in rom cooking fast
Without you guys this forum would be dead.
That is not to say that other less known guys are any less important so big credit for all rest.
feel free to make any changes and improvements on this and really hope it becomes standard for cooked roms.
install with CWM or rename update.zip and use 2e recovery or unzip and manually copy to system/framework:
framework-res.apk
framework.jar
android.policy.jar
your phone dies. NMF i tested it on mine
JP6 - AOSP Lock, circle battery
For Doc like theme for this READ THIS POST
JP6 - AOSP Lock, slightly changed recovery icon, else untouched
JP6 - completely stock samsung - Thanks Tayutama

USEFUL feature for compulsive flashers. I remember your request on the doc's post and did +1 to it. Can I apply this on the Doc's ROM (themed)?
you will lose theme as i have no idea of the extent the doc customized framework folder and his framework-res does no compile properly and he does not provide template with latest changes (see my request above).
thats why i added circle battery so now you can edit the rest without having to use apk manager, you can use winrar or winzip since its only pictures now.

Alright - will give it a shot and let you know. Thanks!
OK tried it and:
Recovery -> Works
Reboot -> Works
Download mode -> Works
I get the feeling its slower shutting down/booting up though - not sure if its related.
If I wanted the doc's battery, can I copy it over to your theme? Can you point me what needs to change?
Would be good if you can post this on the doc's thread so maybe he will port it into his ROM

not my theme. default froyo jp6 theme with circle battery mod.
first boot slow due to generic lockscreen (another credit to doc for providing deodexed jp6 lockscreen mod android.policy.jar as my base)
its not slower or faster its the proper slow shutdown. the shutdown should be slow so the rom has time to save info. any other way is just like yanking the battery out with big possibility of data corruption.
heres a quick Docs themed framework-res.apk and androdena themed twframework-res.apk i think they go good together.
framework-res.apk is optimised .
just replace them in original zip script and update via CWM or manually copy via root to system/framework
hope doc does not take offense but i posted separately to gain visibility so i can get my dream of standardizing this thing and it should not be turned into repository either). i just happen to like this rom and use it so thats why it was made in docs jp6, if i was on tayutama lol than i would not have to do it.
I would like this in a JPA version if possible.

it would have to be by someone else (again: preferably integrated in rom by rom makers like tayutama did) or if i switch to jpa (which i dont plan at the moment).
believe me i have no idea what I'm doing lol. was just tinkering and since i have no idea, it is a painstaking work.
very useful , I'm love it.

Have noticed that with other shutdown utilities too... adb reboot recovery does seem to be the fastest off the blocks.

If you can supply me with framework.jar, framework-res.apk and android.policy.jar i can make it for JPA but they need to be deodexed meaning there can't be any .odex files.
Btw reason i credited designgears is because i took it from his rom
But i'm working on another version that puts the 3 options into a little window by itself so you will have a button saying "Reboot" and pressing on that will bring another window with those 3 options to reboot, recovery and download in them.
Will also see about getting Hot Reboot to work.
Hot Reboot is a reboot that doesn't reboot the phone meaning it kills all services and then starts those up that are needed when you boot the phone... It's faster then a normal reboot
Also have been in the plan to make a unthemed version of my rom but been thinking that if i do that there won't really be a reason to release a rom as it will pretty much be like Doc's that you can just apply a theme to it since there won't be much of a difference between his and mine if i release unthemed... Well other then i implement some stuff before he does ^^
@Tayutama : can you please make for JPA
They have battery mod version d integrated
Reg. Hot Reboot - does adb reboot recovery use Hot Reboot? It is pretty fast.

Saw the popup mod on nexus and sense roms. LIKE THIS neat. hope when you do you make instructions as well
Hot reboot would be amazing provided it does not kill my phone.
Trust me theres plenty of things to differentiate you guys. you just have different styles and priorities but its the theme flexibility that gives us users a way to differentiate ourselves not just from each other but from day to day moods and activities.
anyways just got Doc on board for theme templates current with the changes in latest rom releases for easy themeing. Are you in. it would really simplify making themes compatible with latest roms.
right now we barely have themes section for fingers of one hand which is sad.
keep up the good work.

First off sorry it's Hot Restart not Hot Reboot
Hot Restart: a new option ('hot restart') has been added that will allow you to respawn android's system server process, thereby starting with a "clean system" w/o actually rebooting the device
My current problem is getting that Window to work...
Reason is those pictures you linked to are on Sense frameworks so it takes abit to look through it and figure it out.
Also about the theme templates and that... PM me about it and we can talk.
Working great on Doc_Kalpik Froyo JP6/JPM V5.1.
Hope this becomes standard on cooked roms. Much more convenient.
Will This work on my captivate running cognition UCJI6 (2.2 2.6.32.9 kernel) and it cannot manually get into downloadload mode. Only with ADB!!
Great idea!
How about for those who want to use the AOSP lockscreen?
It also depends on android.policy.jar

Thanks mate, eagerly waiting for it
first, i apologize if this is in a few threads all over these forums. ive tried reading through most but they are cluttered and outdated.
i have been looking for a few theme/mods in flashable form to use on a rooted stock/RUU rom.
i have been messing around with other roms trying to edit my own but it's becoming a very large hassle without a proper desktop and internet connection.
anyways, if anyone could point me to a thread with a working flash or tutorial for:
white taskbar (possibly similar to mikfroyo's theme)
battery icon with % (not metamorph files)
again, sorry if this information is in an obvious place, i cant seem to find it. thanks.

the battery icon one you can find in my sig, the links is for stock de-odexed ROMs though. If you have another ROM look at the OP for different versions of it
thanks so much!
Actually this one may work better for you, the other one was for an older version and is glitchy so I added the battery icons to the new framework.
Stock 3.30.651.2 Battery % Icons
Note: Be sure to wipe cache & dalvik before rebooting.
the 2nd file worked perfectly, thanks.
if anyone has a tutorial or flashable white task bar mod please inform me. thanks again.
hey shutuproman dude. you need a de-odexed rom to theme. this means .odex files that hold stuff for each .apk won't contradict the apk, causing massive force floses, and reboot. find a de-odexed rom, and you can flash whatever the hell you wnat.

You may be able to get away with it if you delete the .odex file, I've never tried it though. If it works it could easily be added to the updates script so it is done automatically.
I am far from knowing how to get this going myself so I hope that one of the themers on here might oblige me by making this possibe. I like running stock for a bit since I am new to the Epic. But I would like the ability to have Reboot and Recovery from the Power Menu as well as the 1% battery option as well as No battery pop up from a stock deodexed template. I would still like all stock apps to remain in place as I remove those at my own leisure via root explorer or 7-zip prior to applying the zip. I am rooted and have no worries there but I have no idea how to get the .xml files edited or add any of these features. Especially on Froyo. Thanks in advance for the read and hopefully assistance! I am all for testing as well so...
I am really surprised that no one else seems to want this. If someone is able to do it can you include the camera fix and call log fix unless those are kernel issues which a kernel is taking care of it already. Please someone help us out!

Here is one link to a rooted deodexed stock install and there are a few others in Android Developement. Then you can add battery mods to that.

Status: ONLINE and Updated 12/Jul/12
With so many GB roms coming out lately I often can't wait for xxx custom rom developer to update to xxx rom. For the last month or so I've basically been using customised stock roms. (My own AOSP theme, choose a kernel, change a few apks).
One of the first things I do after flashing a new rom + kernel is cut down on some of the bloat in /system/. I more or less remove everything that can be downloaded (for free) from the market. When they're downloaded from the market they often go into /data/, leaving more breathing room in /system/.
As always, backup and be confident with restoring your phone via download mode or CWM.

What this does:
This is a little bit of PHP that will generate a customised CWM update.zip which will remove specific apks (and associated .odexes).
Usage:
* Choose which APKs you want the update.zip to remove and hit the Generate button.
- You can also select a preset to save some clicking.
* Copy the generated .zip file to your phone.
* Apply it with CWM.
Thanks:
The list of APKs was grabbed from the public google docs spreadsheet.
The SGS2 APK list was grabbed from this public google docs spreadsheet
The SGS3 APK list was grabbed from this public google docs spreadsheet. XDA thread
Notes:
* The APK list shouldn't let you remove anything 'vital' to booting the phone.
* I've tested it myself pretty extensively and used it for the last couple of stock roms released. However, there may be bugs. Let me know and I'll attempt to get them fixed!
* If you have any particular ideas for good presets, also let me know and I'll see to adding them.
* You can remove TouchWiz (TouchWiz30Launcher.apk) with this. However, if you do that without having another home 'app' installed, bad things may (will) happen.
Presets:
- Google
Removes the following:
- Gmail.apk
- GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk
- Maps.apk
- Street.apk
- VoiceSearch.apk
- YouTube.apk
- Sargorn Special
Removes the following:
- Everything from the Google preset
- Aldiko
- BuddiesNow
- The flip fonts, Choco, Cool, Rose
- Days
- Dlna
- DualClock
- InfoAlarm
- Flash
- Layar
- MiniDairy
- MyFiles
- Protips
- SamsungWidgets (CalendarClock, FeedAndUpdate, StockClock)
- SnsAccount
- SnsProvider
- Unified Inbox
- Write and Go
Nice, a kitchen for removal rather than gain of apps
reserved for future use!
Simple, but very useful!
Thumbs up!
this looks very promising.
one of the things i hate about upgrading is removing all the bloatware ....will try it out my next flash thanks
what a great idea
Wow, definitely going to try this. Thanks!
EDIT: after generating a .zip and looking at the generated script, it deletes .apk and .odex files. Will this throw an error if used on a deodexed rom? Maybe an option to select whether the rom is odexed/deodexed would be a good idea? Just a thought.
It doesn't throw an error. Just double checked.
I will try. I was looking for such a pc software because im tired of removin app
myself again and again after flashing new roms. Thanks.
can i still choose apps which i don't have so incase in the future, i don't need to create another one.. what i'm generating is my master uninstaller.
very nice utility.
this a very useful +1
Very nice idea. Exactly what I was looking for. Will give it a try right away/
Great!
Suggestion: you could add a text input field (possibly user could press a button to get more text input fields) so that users can remove some other (not pre-defined) APKs.
Don't know if it's of any use though..

That should work without any problems. The update-script won't complain if the files deleted are not there to start with.

I can see it being useful if you have a specific apk that usually is installed with your CSC. I'll look into it when I have a chance.
If I understood well, it works on odexed roms?

That's right, the update-script removes both the .apk files and the .odex files.
So as long as you have CWM it will work on odex or deodexed.
Ok, so domo arigato, as they say
Worked pretty good when I went from JVP to JVQ just a minute ago
Great!
After downloading the zip file, can the updater-script be manually edited and and readded to the zip?
Good day all,
I've got a little thread going with some themed versions of the new 4.2 DeskClock app, and I am looking for anyone who is currently on any 4.2.x ROM who can help me with some testing. I am still on 4.1.2 as I can't take the plunge myself quite yet, so I am not able to do this myself yet.
I am looking to confirm that the theming I have done to the DeskClock APK's doesn't cause any issues with the function of the app. The AOSP version of the APK has some issues when running on 4.1.2, but I am assuming they are not present on 4.2 since I haven't seen anyone complaining about it. I also want to confirm that the flashable ZIP file I made is 4.2-compatible.
The ZIP file here (View attachment 1523414) contains a semi-transparent white version of the 4.2 DeskClock. You are welcome to inspect the contents as well as the updater-script to confirm this. Nothing nefarious. I ask that you try flashing it and help me answer 3 questions:
1) Did the flashable ZIP work? You can confirm by installing the analog clock widget and seeing if it is now semi-transparent (or a fainter white depending on your wallpaper). I can make a ZIP to get you back to stock after that, or if there is a style in the OP you like, and I will make a flashable ZIP for you.
View attachment 1534986
2) Does the new digital clock widget work on 4.2? When I try it on 4.1.2, I get the display error in the screenshot below, even the stock unthemed version. Sadface.
View attachment 1522550
3) Does everything still work? Alarms? Timers? Widgets? No weird FC's when exiting the app while a timer is running?
If anyone is willing to help me with any or all of the things above, it would be greatly appreciated!! You can post here or in the thread over in the Themes & Apps sub-forum, I'll be checking both places
weekend BUMP! any help is appreciated!
