hello guys, i want to create my own ROM based on a google stock rom or revolution HD 10.1, but i want some mods from xylon ROM that i cant live without anymore. the mods i want is:
Edit tiles(quick toggles).
unlock phone when correct pin is entered
when dialing the number in phone app, shows some matching numbers of contacts.
bettery indicator mod
disable fullscreen keyboard
themes from cyanogenmod
power menu options
expanded desktop.
and some apps that i want integrated.
flash player
calculator, browser and clock from xylon.
audio mod.
and root.
can someone help me?
i want to make my own rom because i think that other roms have too many features that i dont use and i want to make it almost like stock rom, because i love the stability of stock and revoHD.
thanks in advance.
I would start by learning how to compile from source and use git

You want mods added to a ROM? Editing a current ROM is a horrible way to go about it when you have all this source code laying around. There is currently a help thread in this nexus forum explaining EXACTLY what you want.

hi,
quick question: how to edit the quick settings in the drop-down menu (notification tray) in Gingerbread Sense ROMs ? (im using insertcoin)
i want to know ! how to do ?
Maybe this Thread helps you
well unfortunatetly no answer there, just an idea to decompile an .apk and suit it to my needs.
still, anyone ?
Its so simple in MIUI Rom... their is an option in settings/Personal/ Custom Status Bar..
Incase you desperately want the setting, you can try MIUI ;-)
Well it's a difference if you did the thing yourself or if you want to change a HTC based feature without big hacks. I think it's pretty much impossible.
But if there is a solution, let me know - 2G/3G is missing
it is not impossible, in stock you get only a few quick settings, in custom roms (rcmixs, insertcoin) devs extended it - i want to know how, so i can remove the unneeded shortcuts.
robocik: not that easy, you should take a modded systemui.apk and a stock one, decode both with apktool and diff them, that way you will see how it is maked and will be easier for you to modify it.
this is the method, have not tried it yet though.
if any of you intrested guys tries to do this, i really apprecieate your feedback here thx.
and big thanks to robo, not only for all the amazing job he is doing for our community, but also for responding to my Q
I have rooted Desire Z with Virtuous Sence v2 Rom.
Go to
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1071118
and download Extra QuickSettings 0.2
http://www.multiupload.com/W7GXFQJN6R
Extract SystemUI.apk from zip file.
I used DroidExplorer to replace original : system/app/SystemUI.apk
with the downloaded one and have ne quick settings menu.
Is there any way to change "quick settings" with rooting?
If by "change" you mean "add/remove features in the settings list", yes, there is. Check out this thread.
I want to change the notification screen to this one, is it possible? how can I do it?
Not sure I can see the identical screenshot, but there are very similar themes in JKay's theme mod thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1154278
Or maybe try the uot kitchen?
http://uot.dakra.lt/
it is a screenshot from Steel Blue CM7 Theme for SGS2
how can I use this theme with my rom?
This is my baseband version: I9100TJJKF3
my kernel: 2.6.35.7-I9100TJJKG1
build number: GINGERBREAD.JJKG1
Oh right - you could have said so...
Seems like you need a custom ROM first - choose one then the installation seems pretty straightforward, all you need is in that thread (Steel Blue thread)
If it's your first time for a custom ROM, read, read, read and search
If I will flash the custom rom and then re-flesh to my rom the theme will be gone? I have to use the custom rom all the time for this theme?
Sorry, I'm not concentrating or reading enough myself
There are themes for stock firmwares there - see post#2 - but not yours (KF3).
So if you want this theme on stock firmware, you'll have to choose another stock ROM (KF2 for example).
Yes, if you reflash stock over a custom ROM you'll lose the theme.
If it's only the notification bar you want and nothing else, I'd try the uot kitchen if I were you. I've not tried it myself, but it seems user-friendly, supports stock ROMs and you can customise just about everything.
I dont know how to use the uot kitchen, can you please help me?
I want to change the notification screen and bar to solid black, like on the pic I posted
Sorry - as said, I've never used it, and I'm offline for the next few hours.
Hope someone else can help.
Decompile SystemUI.apk, browse to /res/drawables-hdpi/ and find the picture you want to change, replace it, compile it and switch the drawables-hdpi folder in the apk

can you please explain step by step how to do it?
I'm new to android. I know how to flash roms and kernels but that's it.....
As I'm sure Bruflot is well aware of, his "advice" is something that someone new to this shouldn't touch with a bargepole.. I'm still new enough not to try...
Just tried a quick go with the uot kitchen and it will do what you want, just play with it. The "generate preview" will help enormously. If I had time I'd do it for you, but screaming kiddies await me...

Hi all,
I'm a beginner in the world of smartphone, but i'm interested by installing a custom ROM on my phone, especially CyanogenMod 7.2.
But i saw that apart from ROM, there is also custom Kernel...
My question is: If il install CyanogenMod 7.2 by phiexz, i have to install also the custon kernel developed by himself? Or his kernel is included with the rom?
Thanks you and sorry for my bad english
The kernel is included in the rom, you don't need to install it again.

Thanks you very much!
The kernel is simply for other Roms. Supposedly, you can use the kernel with the stock Rom, but i could never get it working.
Also, before you go flashing roms, get yourself a copy of Clockworkmod Recovery. It's saved my bacon more than once.

You should probably create a new thread for this question, as it doesn't have any relation to the original post... Makes it far easier to keep track of issues, and help provided.

It is just you.
At least widgets are working for me (didn't try that "3d weather" one, but others are working fine).
Make sure you didn't force install it to SD - widgets and launchers won't work when placed to SD.
Hi, I was just wondering if it would be possible to get the paranoid android colors feature where status and nav bar colors change based on the app you are in on AOKP rom. I know I could use a hybrid rom but that is the one feature that I want outside of AOKP. I did some searching but found nothing. Would I be able to install the paranoid preferences apk or does the feature depend on something in the rom?
i join your question
you cant do this , cause even with PAPref Apk , you need to change framework files which might take away AOKP stuff , your best bet is to use PAC , it uses ParanoidAndroid AOKP and CM , meaning all features of 3 roms is in .

Is there a way I can test what AOKP features would be compromised by editing framework files? Or would it just ruin the whole system framework?
This isn't exactly the same but may be a option to consider.

Hello,
I wish the optics from the stock android (like cm11 oder silm rom) but with all the functions of a TW Rom. Is this possible?
The System UI must be also like Stock Android and the Toggles.

There was ROMs in the past where it was "themed" to look like CM .. though now there is not a single ROM with this.. and if you would want to do such a thing, it require a lot of work .. you would need to edit lots of things like framework and systemui

Hello,
there is a way to make only the very hard to make. Can you give me a simple way to show how I can start?
Greez
Basically android General User interface is made of multiple apk files .. Apps in other words.
For example
System/framework/framework-res.apk contains the android design that apps would use it. And how phone looks in general
Systemui.apk is status bar and the pull down and pop ups
Those are the very main ones.
You should edit the apk files and swap the touchwiz images with the one you want..
For other system apps, you would want to edit them too separately (settings, camera, music, etc.)
I don't know much about it .. But that's all I can help with.
