I Need Some Help - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Ok as some of you know, i have been working on a UVLH1 Rom and its almost close to completion. I ran into just two problems i need help on, how do i implement the advanced power menu/4-way boot because i have been checking around the forums and i cant seem to find a good tut or guide anywhere and my last problem is i have been trying to change the text name after hitting 'reboot' on a modded blue 15 status bar toggles that i have gotten from Rushing's thread and its the name that shows next to the exclamation mark symbol, i have went into res/values/strings.xml and then where it says string name hamster, i have changed it to my touchwiz's rom name and then i compiled the #666-res.apk. I then added the meta folder and android.manifest from my original unmodded #666-res.apk into the new one and i placed it into the system/framework folder, flashed the rom, and all i get is a systemUI is not responding error after i do this. Can someone help me i would greatly appreciate it. Thanks...

[Q] Reboot options via long power button press (normal, recovery, bootloader)

can anyone tell me how to add this to any rom ? i have seen these options in quite a few roms, but don't know what i need to be able to achieve this.
thanx
I'm interested as well. I saw the thread with the mod the other day before cooking my ROM and lost it. Haven't found it yet.
You can find a flashable version of it here :
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=776679
in second post.
I use it in almost all ROM's I test.
android.policy.jar
ah thanx guys.
btw does anyone know which and what *.smali file you need to edit to achieve the above result ? i would rather do it myself to my own classes.dex than using the virusrom one. (unless i absolutely have too)

[Q] how do you deodex

okay, so for the past couple days been trying to successfully theme my notification bar. trying to put together a theme is hard work but really you can just theme all the icons on the notification bar by themselves easy enough the only problem is how do you deodex the phone inorder to change the clock color. i cant get it to successfully deodex all the way with the ultimatex or w/e. it quits halfway saying there was an error deodexing a main .apk. soo any help?
btw ive googled for days just trying to find something. so now im asking for some help. please and thank you.
Search for antibyte posts on modaco. Higgsy knows to do it here
Sent from my ME525 using XDA App
If you are just looking for the files Higgsy has posted them for download. But if you are looking to learn the process hopefully someone can point you to a good source as I want to learn this as well, but haven't had time to look yet.
Go to the development section, and look for the post with something like China 2.2 ROM with everything working. Then scroll down the post, and it will show you how to deodex using Higgsy.

[MOD] (ICS) Remove select input notification

This will remove the "Select input method" notification and the keyboard icon that's placed on the status bar.
Update zip is attached, but here's a guide on how to do it:
Follow my guide here for specifics on pulling files and decompiling/compiling.
In services.jar open com\android\server\InputMethodManagerService.smali
In setImeWindowStatus comment out line 8866
Code:
# if-eq v12, v0, :cond_3a
Save, compile, push to device.
--------------------------------------------------------------
This also makes the setImeWindowStatus function in InputMethodManagerService output this line to logcat
Code:
W/InputManagerService( 495): Ignoring setImeWindowStatus of uid 10084 token: [email protected]
As far as I can tell (did a lot of testing), this only ever gets called when you bring up the keyboard and it tries to display the "select input method" notification.
If you want to be on the safe side, do a nandroid backup or backup services.jar.
Enjoy!
Can you PM me? Please? LOL! Thank You!

It might. I've only tried it on RaverX3X's ROM.
Ok, i just tried flashing the zip file on racing's ics skyrocket port and it does remove the "select input notification". it doesnt seem to affect anything else so it seems safe.
Thanks for the tweak. Everything helps make these ports so much better!

So just download and flash no wipe or anything I'm using the same one racer ics port

I should, all of these port roms all have the same base
I will test this on HTC Sensation ARHD 6.5.5 and will report.
I just ran the zip on HTC Rezound, amon recovery, latest leaked ICS, stock, rooted and it didn't work. Let me know if there is anything I can let you know to help make it work, otherwise I'll just wait.

You have to post the original services.jar from that ROM. The one you posted is the one from my patch
services.jar
this is from the rom I flashed. Sorry to hijack your thread.
Here you go.
Thanks again for helping. Unfortunently no luck. I do not expect any more assistance and don't want you to waste more time unless more folks with my phone are willing to try and see if it it just my issue or the phone. Also, I'll probably jump into a new rom in a few weeks if the rezound ota comes out so I wouldn't want you to go out of your way when who knows how long I will keep this one.

[Q] S Voice/Vlingo Uninstall and Install Modded Directions Please

I just rooted my phone for the first time and flashed the Frankenstein Ego ROM. I just want to say thank you for the amazing work by everyone here at XDA. You guys are the best!
S voice that comes with the ROM does not work and get a network error. I know that there is a modded version that should work (here if anyone is looking: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1662358)
I apologize for the noob question, but how do I uninstall the S voice that came with the ROM and Vlingo (I tried Titanium and finding it in the .zip file, but didn't want to play with the latter too much).
Again, thank you for the amazing work. BTW-this ROM is absolutely wonderful.
Please provide step by step directions, I am new to the whole scene.
titanium worked
Never mind. Used titanium to uninstall. The modded version works great!!
For anyone else interested use the S Voice patch v4 on this blog

It looks like there is a v3 is posted on that url.
I examined the script and it's not quite right copying over one of the files that the dev put into that flashable zip. Specifically, there is an etc/permissions folder that isn't being written back to the phone. If the app works, then maybe that file isn't necessary. But if it doesn't someone needs to tell the dev to correct the script and see if it that helps.

It may work the way it is. It wouldn't hurt anything to try it. That was just an observation on my part.
FYI for anyone downloading that flash, it will delete several default files on your phone, including voicetalk.apk and vlingo.apk. If you depend on these apps I thought you would like to know. Please backup your phone prior to flashing this file so you can easily restore everything the way it was.
Updated to v4, thanks man ^

No problem. Like I said, may not even matter but I thought I would point it out in case it was an oversight. Plus I like to see how other people like to code their work and learn from it.

I don't think there are major changes in framework since then..it should work
It will take me some time coz I am going back to development after an year and my last droid was kinda different from a Nexus
Lot has changed since then, new fancy tools and all
I will try my best and report back ASAP

^^ what this poster said
Status update:
So, I spent past couple of hours trying to port the recent apps mod to the PA and CM but it didn't work out :crying:
I was able to do the changes and compile the SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk but when I flash the zip, the SystemUI just keeps crashing on the boot..
"SystemUI has stopped working."
I was using this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2187184
Well, this guide has some problems..
It says:
/res/layout-port/status_bar_recent_item.xml
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
There is no such folder "layout-port" in res..
Then I checked OPs mod which he supposedly created using the same guide...I decompiled his SystemUI.apk but guess what...there wan't any "layout-port" either...
Then I thought that I should change that in the "layout" folder itself...(and later I found out that the OP has done the same)
But still..no gain Force Closes everytime
There was one more problem that there wasn't any id "android:id="@id/recents_clear" in the ids.xml..but I solved that problem.
I can upload the zip which force closes if anyone wants to test stuff too

1. Yep, it is CM10 guide and the person who wrote this used the same to apply mod on CM10.1...
2. Yep I know it's portrait that's why I have mentioned that I already tried changing in the single folder...
I then tried to do this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2241739
Still SystemUI crashed..which means that something's wrong in the compilation method...I was using Virtous Studio

The think is that in layout and layout_land you need to remove the whole code and paste his...the thing is that if you compare the 2 codes you can see that alot of change in recents code but you remove alot of code existing..im pretty sure thats causing the FC's i try with a guide for 10.1 and i still have this problem...systemui refuse to load even when the phone reboots properly..so maybe if we exclude the fact that we can copy and paste...the code there is old and cm has added a lot of stuff in it after that...so we need someone who knows to check the code and apply it to a newest version of cm...
and remember those guides are for cm if your trying to do it on a PA or SLIM or anyother heavy tweaked rom you will mess a hell lot more things!
