[TUTO] Customise Defy MINI XT320 with UOT Kitchen - Defy General

Many of you have been asking me how I customize my Defy mini.
Well there you go with a tutorial.
So first things first.
-- Your phone must be rooted
-- Somewhere on your computer you have the Android Debug Bridge (adb) and fastboot
-- I supposed you know what you are doing so if it doesn't work / brick your phone / etc... you and you only are responsible for this.
-- I can help you make it work, but please provide me enough information so can really help you
-- All the files you should need are in the tools.rar archive attached
So, this being said, let's begin.
First things first. To proceed, you will need to extract two files. framework-res.apk and systemUI.apk
Code:
adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk framework-res.apk
adb pull /system/app/systemUI.apk systemUI.apk
Then go to http://uot.dakra.lt/ with your favorite browser :laugh:
Go to kitchen, go through your customization.
Do try to change the loockscreen it won't work
If you change the battery icon, the animation when charging will not work
You can select gingerbread option.
Resolution has to be set to mdpi (320x480)
In the File upload section
Select your rom from kitchen's list, and upload your own files : choose Upload system files and upload the systemUI and framework-res extracted earlier
Choose any update binary on the list.
Then go to summary. If everything's green you are good to go, you can submit your work to kitchen.
You'll get a order number. Then just wait in the pickup section to get back your new, awesomely customize files !
Before install this update with CWM recovery, you have to change the updater-binary.
To do so open the UOT zip with 7zip for instance. And change the META-INF\com\google\android\updater-binary with the one in the tools archive
Then your good for installation !
Code:
adb push UOT-XX-XX-XX-XX-X.zip /sdcard/UOT.zip
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot boot recovery.img
Choose install zip form sd card, reboot and enjoy !

I sure do!
connect you phone with debugging on. open up you cmd, cd to you rsdk tools folder, use command adb
pull /system/framework/com.htc.resources.apk.
once you have done this the com.htc.resources.apk will be in you tools folder. Make 2 copys of this to a place that you can work with it. Leave one of these alone. take your other one and you open this with 7zip DONT UNZIP THIS ONLY OPEN. navagate to res\drawable-hdpi inside you will find many png file find the png that is what you have on your status bar and replace it with the one you are wanting making sure they are named the same. once you have all your files replaced close it up. Take your modded com.htc.resources.apk and place it in your sdk tools folder. With your phone connected open you cmd cd back to your sdk tools folder and use the commands
adb remount
adb push com.htc.resources.apk /system/framework
adb reboot
after you have issued the last comand let it set your phone will reboot its self and you should have your handy work

Are there certain png files I am looking for once I get the file open or will that just stick out at me?
Easiest way I found is look for the ones you see on you're phone

after adb remount command it says: Operation not permitted
and adb push ... : Read-only file
any other ideas?
Erm.. you need to download android SDK from http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
then use terminal(on PC), navigate to your <sdk folder>\platform-tools
and use those commands..
I tried to create an update.zip for u.. doesn't work
Can you give me the backup framework-res.apk?

Ok, here is framework-res file
problem is that maybe you have not enabled usb debugging..
and update script doesnt seem to be working.. maybe some one with more experience can help you..
you can try here yourself..
http://www.londatiga.net/it/how-to-create-android-update-zip-package/
My created and signed update.zip says aborted :/
hmm. just flash a fresh rom?

enable ics keys on any ics rom detailed guide

DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK MODDING FRAMEWORK IS DANGEROUS READ EVERYTHING BEFORE DOING ANYTHING
Im not responsible for bricks
your house burning down
your cat gone missing
or your phone blowing up
Ok this is NOT my idea here is the original thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1364757
first you will need the android sdk http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
you need to install it on your C: directory eg:/android/android sdk
notepad++ is needed to
7zip is also needed and you need to set it as default program for apks
and apktool http://code.google.com/p/android-ap...mmary+Uploaded+ReleaseDate+Size+DownloadCount use apktool 1.4.2 if you get problems with 1.4.3 you will need apktool installer and apktool once extracted put them in a folder in the C: directory and add them to path eg; C:/android/apktool/
THE ANDROID SDK AND APKTOOL NEED TO BE ADDED TO PATH OR NONE OF THIS WILL WORK!
lets get started!
the decompile
1: open command promt and type in
Code:
cd android
(make this folder b4 you start in your user)
2:then
Code:
adb remount
if you installed adb correctly it will say remount succeeded
3:then type this in
Code:
adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk
once its done pulling apk
go to android in your user and you will see (if you did it right) framework-res.apk
4: back to cmd and type in
Code:
apktool d framework-res.apk
let it do its stuff
once done goto android in your user and the apk will be decompiled there for you
the modding
1: open up framework-res click on res and scroll down to values open it and click on bools
2: open bools in notepad++ and find "config_showNavigationBar" and set to true
3: now open dimens and find "navigation_bar_height" and set to 34.0dip
4:if your running a kernel like glitch devils you can disable the touch key backlights using nstools
5: done!
the recompile
you will need to switch out the appt in the folder you put apktool and stuff eg:were i put mine C:/android/apktool/
new appt http://www.mediafire.com/?0q52u6v8vdkpq1i
1:switch out appt with the new one
2:goto cmd and type
Code:
apktool b framework-res
then press enter
3:if you did everything right (installing android sdk and apktool) this part should take about 5min
4:if the recompile succeeded kiss your self (joking)
5: open android in your user (NOT ON C: DRIVE) and click on framework-res you will see a new folder called "build" click on it and
you will se three files one of these is "AndroidManifest" leave that well alone open framework-res.apkin 7zip and drag the two folders in "build" into the apk again dont drag androidManifest once the modded filles are in the apk close 7zip
adb push it back to your phone
1:in command promt type
Code:
adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/
2:when push is complete type
Code:
adb reboot
this will now reboot your phone
3: once booted up you should see the three touch keys at the bottom of your screen everything will look cramped
so goto market and download LCD Density Modder and change the dpi from 240 to 228 reboot and enjoy
obviously this guide is for NOOBS this is not my idea just wanted to give people a easier guide to modding framework
all credit goes to evilisto not me hope you do what you want!!!
this will also work on
nexus s
nexus one
galaxy s II
vibrant
crappy
and galaxy note
other phone you probably can but these are the only ones ive tried it on try on other phones at your on risk
happy modding
peace

you can also type in terminal emulator
su
tar -c system/* >> sdcard/system.tar
wait until the command promp returns (may take 5 mins so make sure screen timeout is set to at least 15mins to make it easier for you to keep an eye on it without the screen keep turning off)
once done you will have a file called system.tar on the root of your sd card
you can then load this file in android kitchen which is useful for deodexing
or you can just extract it and all your system files will be there to do with as you like - eg put in a flashable zip
note the above requires the following
root
terminal emulator (playstore)
busybox installed (get installer from playstore if not already installed)
my method in spoiler above added to op
How about my data.rfs.tar? Will I Flash again my Tweak on Phone, after reflashing the ROM backup?
