Hi
This is just a suggestion / request for a mod where you can toggle the 'polling' option for NFC.
Here are the instructions for how to change the APK to allow screen off NFC:
Downloaded the Nfc.apk and Nfc.odex from /system/app on my phone, using SSHDroid and WinSCP
Used apktool (apktool d Nfc.apk) to extract everything from the APK
Since this is an odexed file, I needed to extract the actual classes from the odex, using smali (see code.google.com/p/smali/wiki/DeodexInstructions)
This created two directories, one called 'Nfc' containing the apk contents, the other called 'out' containing the decompiled smali files
I renamed 'out' to 'smali' and moved it into the 'Nfc' folder. This creates a structure that can readily be assembled into an intact, deodexed apk file later by apktool
Now I edited the NfcService.smali file. I realized this is much more complex than the stock Android class, which can be found here: android.googlesource.com/platform/packages/apps/Nfc/+/refs/tags/android-4.0.4_r2.1/src/com/android/nfc/NfcService.java. It seems the class on my S3 has some additional code that turns off NFC when the screen is off, ignoring the POLLING_MODE constant. Therefore, I had to go into the applyRouting() method and remove some conditionals. I have attached the original smali class and the modified one, for your reference. As you will see, I replaced some if statements with gotos and deleted others.
I compiled everything back into an apk, using 'apktool b Nfc'. This creates a 'dist' subdirectory inside the 'Nfc' directory, with a single Nfc.apk file in it.
In order to make this file work, I had to copy the signature over from the original Nfc.apk. I opened both with 7-ZIP, copied over the META-INF folder from the old to the new file, and replaced AndroidManifest.xml in the new apk by the same file in the old apk.
Uploaded the new Nfc.apk to my phone, using SSHDroid and WinSCP and deleted Nfc.odex on my phone (make sure you retain copies of both the apk and odex original). In order to get write access for WinSCP, you need to connect via putty and enter 'mount -o rw,remount /system'. This remounts the /system directory in read/write mode.
Restarted the phone, Nfc now works with screen off or locked.

From a long thread in SIII section: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1712024
One of the APKs provided there did work, but only on 4.1.1
Thanks
I asked for this some time ago in apps forum, but seems there is no devs interested on this.
Later I apply some sense common and presumed that Samsung uses the same apks for many devices and changed the original nfc.apk from one taken from the s3 forum and it worked.
I quit using nfc on screen off weeks ago since its useless for me (not really useless, but I used it rarely).
You can try to pick one of the latest nfc apk from s3 forum and see if it works.
Hope I helped you.

^ Yep I was using that before 4.1.2, now it doesn't work I get FCs
yep nfc on locked 4.1.2 would be great!

That shoud be good.
Anyone who can make this compatible with 4.1.2?
Really miss the ability to use NFC without powering on the phone.
Is there a NFC Mod with "only" Lockscreen active?
I mean:
Lockscreen = NFC ON
Screen OFF = NFC OFF
So i only need to prees Power or Home Button to activate NFC! But if Screen is off, NFC is off to !?!?!
For SGN7100
thx

Hi.
Just wondering if it's possible for me to remove the Power Off popup which appears just before the phone restarts, goes into recovery etc.
I'm not shy with having to alter files either, so whatever it takes I'd like to know...
This is for a Deodexed JVT 2.3.5.
Thanks in advance.
are you using an app to get to recovery,download,etc...?
You can get it from my Mod, get stock files and comare the files to see what is changed.
Have fun.

Cool I'll take a look. If you could tell me the files that are changed that would narrow it down a little for me.
OK I did a file compare and there are WAY too many files which are different (including the framework-res.apk file).
Can you please narrow it down for me.
Worked it out finally.
Can you please explain how did you do it?
Thanks!
I just took Perka's advice and it worked out.
The files that needed editing are in the android.policy.jar file located in /system/framework/
I compared Perka's android.policy.jar file against mine and updated GlobalActions files that are associated with the Reboot, Shutdown etc.
It's not too hard especially if you have some kind of programming background.
My next project is to work on the 10 lockscreen mod.
It looks like all the mods I've seen are speific to certain ROMs. It's not just the version numbers (4.0.1, 4.0.2, etc.), but different ROMs built from different sources seem not to be compatible with each other as far as the mods go.
I'd like to have permanent Menu buttons and a search button in the bottom nav bar, but because of all the incompatibilities, I'm having a hard time finding the correct modded versions (I'm using P3Drod's 4.0.3 Tranquilice right now). So, I would like to be able to make my own softkey mod for whichever ROM I happen to be running. It looks like it's controlled by the SystemUI.apk file in /system/apps, and I tried decompiling it using APK Tool, making some changes to the XML files inside, and then recompiling it. But when I push it back ot the phone and reboot, the nav bar disappears altogether (along with the wallpaper), so I'm sure that I'm doing something wrong.
So, is there guide anywhere for modding SystemUI.apk to change the softkeys?
there's a few threads around here about that, use search.
/me sent this from a i9250 using Tapatalk
Just so you don't have to search here's a guide.
Grab the SystemUI.apk from the ROM you are currently on. Using WinRAR open the SystemUI.apk and drag the "res" folder out of it (Put it on the Desktop or something). Go into the res folder, then go into Drawable-XHDPI and the 2 things you need to modding the softbuttons are the following images:
"ic_sysbar_highlight.png"
"ic_sysbar_highlight_land.png".
Edit them 2 to what color you want, put the res folder back into the systemUI.apk and flash it.
Done.
Actually that doesn't help me -- I don't want to change the graphics, I want to change the behavior actual softkeys. I want to add a search key, and make the settins keys permantnely displayed. Tere are alreday a few mods like that available, but no for all the ROMs, so I'd like to be able to do one myself.
i'm curious of this too, because theres nothing made for what i specifically want my keys to be.
i've been desperately asking for a version with menu on both sides that only shows up when needed and then back, home, recent, search. and i've gotten ignored everywhere i've requested it.
and just as you, i can't find any guide to do it myself.
+3, there are no guides available I'd like to add the search as I am on tranq v5. I have figured out other systemui mods but I cannot takle this one

Sry to interupt. So if i want to change the graphics of the ROM I am currently on, I just need to open the zip file of my ROM in winrar, extract the systemui.apk and open that in winrar, too. Then I can replace the images in the res-> drawable HDPI folder by simply dragging my icons in there using winrar. Then just close Winrar and put the whole thing on my device ( the whole rom or just the systemui.apk? )
After that all I have to do is flash it using cwm? apply update from sd card or what?
Sry that i ask for detailed steps, but i am new to costumizing android -.-

This is for changing the background highlight.
There are also files in the drawable xhdpi that corresponding to the actual symbols. Replace these and flash the rom
-So..find prefered symbols(.png files called ic_sysbar_back) there will be nine of them
-grab a rom you want to flash( can be the same rom you are on.)
-use winrar or 7zip to get into the rom and go to systemui.apk/re/drwablexhdpi
-drag and drop new symbols file in( it will replace)...if you dont believe me you can organize the file by date an there will now be 9 folders with current date.
close it up and flash the rom via your favorite way.
this is how i did it. and there is at one guide out there...I used it.
have fun

P3Droid said that he'll include the modded keys in Tranq v6. But I'd still like to know how I can do it myself.
as would i. i've searched and there is no guide anywhere in this forum about how to modify the soft keys.
only guides are for skinning. But if you want to make your own setup your screwed or have to figure it out on your own from scratch.

I as well would love to be able to add extra buttons to the soft key bar. I truly think this is where the Galaxy Nexus will shine.
Personally, I think that Back -- Home -- Search is the best implementation. Then long press on home for the MultiTasking/Recent menu, and long press on search for voice actions. But like the OP, I haven't found this implementation for AX10M ROM (Only AOKP) so I'm just sitting, waiting, wishing for a dev to pick it up. It doesn't seem too hard, so I don't think I'll be waiting long.. Just wish I could help in some way...

You'll have to place your original apk back. UOT isn't currently compatible with ICS. It will build a zip for you, but is based on gingerbread

[Guide][DDKQ8] Remove "Swipe screen to unlock" | Center lockscreen Clock | more...
No guide can explain every bit of information a beginner needs to know to achieve the wanted results. You need to make an effort and have patience to learn what you need.
This guide assumes that you have some basic knowledge like managing files on your phone, setting permissions, using command prompt on your computer. I will not explain what is ADB or Root Explorer or how to use them. google can help with that.
The steps described here are the steps i did on my computer (windows) and my rom (rooted, deodexed). i cannot promise to offer support, i'm a semi-noob myself.
standard disclaimer applies: Do it at your own risk & Backup your system before trying any of this.
What you will need:
• apk file compiler/decompiler: i will use apktool
• archive manager: winrar, 7zip
• Text editor : Notepad++ is recommended
• A way to manage files on the phone: ADB, Android Commander, Root Explorer
• an image editor (for some parts): Photoshop, Gimp, Paint.NET...
Part I. Decompiling
1. First you need to download and install apktool which allows you to decompile apk files and rebuild them. some people prefer APK Manager but i find apktool simpler to use.
Download these two files and export them to your Windows directory.
apktool-install-windows-r04-brut1.tar.bz2
apktool1.4.3.tar.bz2
2. Pull the file framework-res.apk from /system/framework/ on your phone and place it on your computer. for exemple under C:\lockscreen\
3. Now open a command prompt window and change the current directory to C:\lockscreen\ by entering the command
Code:
cd c:\lockscreen
Then decompile your apk file by entering the following command
Code:
apktool d framework-res.apk
This will create a new folder named framework-res within it are the decompiled contents of framework-res.apk
Part II. Editing files
Remove "Swipe screen to unlock"
1. Open \framework-res\res\values\strings.xml
2. Find lockscreen_unlock_guide_text
3. In that line, delete Swipe screen to unlock
Note: \res\values\strings.xml is for English language. if you're using a differnet language on your phone then you have to edit the corresponding strings.xml file in the proper values directory. for exemple if you're using French then you'll have to edit the strings.xml file under values-fr
Change the date format on the lock screen
1. Open \framework-res\res\values\strings.xml
2. Find mid_month_day_mid_wday_no_year
3. Replace E. d MMM. with the format you want.
Reference:
d numeric Day of the Month (1)
dd numeric Day of the Month (01)
EEE short Day of the week (Mon)
EEEE long Day of the week (Monday)
M numeric Month (1)
MM numeric Month (01)
MMM short Month (Jan)
MMMM long Month (January)
yy short year (09)
yyyy long year (2009)
exemple: yyyy MMMM d, EEEE to display 2012 March 12, Monday
Center the lockscreen clock and date
Explaining this mod step by step would take too long. All the editing is done in a single file \res\layout\zzz_keyguard_screen_clockwidget.xml
I uploaded the edited file (not compiled). All you have to do is replace you original file under framework-res\res\layout\ with this one before you compile. Advanced users can take a look at it, compare it with the original and edit it if they want/can.
I also replaced the charging icon that appears on the lockscreen. The png file is inluded with the xml file. To apply it, after you're done with Part III of this guide, open your modded apk file with winrar/7zip, browse to \res\drawable-mdpi\ then drag the png and drop it in the apk.
Part III. Creating the modded file
After we're done editing the xml files, we will recompile them and update the original apk with the modded ones.
1. Go back to that command prompt window and enter the following command to recompile the files
Code:
apktool b framework-res
(no .apk at the end)
when it's done, you will find a new folder under framework-res named build where the compiled files are placed.
2. Go to framework-res\build\apk\ copy the resources.arsc file
3. Open your original framework-res.apk file with an archive manager like winrar or 7zip (do not extratct, open with) and paste resources.arsc inside it.
4. If you used the edited zzz_keyguard_screen_clockwidget.xml file, then you have also to copy the compiled version from \buid\apk\layout\ and paste it under the same path inside your apk file.
Now your framework-res.apk is modded and ready to be installed.
5. Place the apk in your phone under /system/framework/ and set its permissions to rw-r--r--
Note: Some may prefer to copy the file to /system/ first, set the permissions and then move it to /system/framework
6. Reboot
Changing the font of the clock:
For some reason, this clock is not actual text, it does not use a font. Instead, the numbers are png files placed under /res/drawable-mdpi/
So to change the font, you will have to make new png files for each number, plus one for the column )
I uploaded the ones i made. you can take a look at them to note the dimensions and names of the files. you have to use those same names. also notice that there are two different files for the number one.
After you're done modding your framework-res.apk and just before you send it your phone, open it with winrar and browse to /res/drawable-mdpi/ then drag the png files you made and drop them inside the apk.

This is not developed by me. The OP of the Google Now for ICS Project confuses many . So i thought of posting a fully working process for HOX with Sense .
Link to the OP of Google Now for ICS Project : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1747224
MAKE SURE TO DO A NANDROID BACKUP before. And you are following this at your own risk , i am not responsible for any damage . The max i do is assure you that it's 100% working for me and if you will follow the guide accurately you won't mess up.
Proceed as follows :
Step 1 : Download the by Velvet.apk by lenny_kano
Step 2 : Download LennoxPackage.zip
Step 3: Extract all 3 folders from LennoxPackage.zip on your SD Card and replace the Velvet.apk in the /app folder of LennoxPackage with Velvet.apk downloaded in Step 1.
Step 4 : On your phone, in /system/app/, rename GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk to GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk.bak using Root Browser (or something similar).
Step 5 : In the folder you placed on your SD - you'll need to move everything from the /app/ folder to /system/app/, and set permissions to RW/R/R for each of the 3 .apks
Step 6 : Copy the files from the lib folder on your SD, and paste to system/lib (note, a couple of these already exist. Before copying these files go through /system/lib/ and rename any existing files to include .bak, then copy/paste new files). Change permissions of these New files to rw/r/r
Step 7 : rename the existing "config" folder in /system/usr/srec/ on your phone to "config.bak", then just paste "config" and "en-US" from the srec folder on your SD to /system/usr/srec/. I also changed permissions on config and en-US to RWX/RX/RX
Step 8 : REBOOT and Enjoy
Gonna give a try when I get home tonight, thanks for the tutorial.

Hello guys,
I am new to this forum and i already have a question.
A friend asked me if it is possible to extract the original firephone standard mail app on his Samsung Galaxy S3. I tried the normal method:
Copying the mail.apk in the /system/priv-app/ to his S3 into the /system/priv-app folder, too and then setting the right attributes.
After a reboot it seems to be installed, but right after booting it shows that the email app has crashed. A manual launch of the main app
isn't possible too. Is there away to flash it manually or did i choose the wrong method to copy that system app? Is it even possible to
do that? Is it compatible?
Hope my english isn't too bad.
You would need the APK and the ODEX file... but even then it would be problematic because the rest of the Amazon DCP is missing...
Take a look at (some of) the permissions the email app is asking for:
Code:
com.amazon.dcp.settings.permission.read_settings
com.amazon.dcp.sso.permission.account.changed
com.amazon.dcp.sso.permission.amazon_account_property
com.amazon.dcp.sso.permission.use_device_credentials
com.amazon.dcp.snds.permission.change_snds_link_status
com.amazon.dcp.snds.permission.snds.link_status.changed
amazon.permission.application_settings
com.amazon.kindle.cms.cms_access
com.amazon.dcp.messaging.permission.handle_device_message
com.amazon.kor.demo.provider.permission.read_provider
com.amazon.dcp.sso.permission.expire_access_token
com.amazon.dcp.sso.permission.manage_cor_pfm
com.amazon.dcp.sso.permission.customer_attribute_service
com.amazon.dcp.metrics.permission.metrics_permission
com.amazon.dcp.config.permission.dyn_config_values_updated
com.amazon.identity.permission.can_call_map_information_provider
com.amazon.identity.permission.generic_ipc
com.amazon.identity.auth.device.perm.auth_sdk
amazon.permission.collect_metrics

Isn't it possible to bypass these permissions? Thought an Email application just needs network permissions to run a IMAP/POP3 Client...
Isn't it possible to integrate the amazon features?
I also copied the Odex file and it crashed...
If you want to try I can upload those files.

You need to deodex the app first (before porting it to another device) so that the apk and odex files become one file. I don't have a link to share but with a little googling you will find a ton of tutorial for deodexing KitKat using apktool.
