Hi guys! Again here's another mod from me. This mod should fix the lockscreen issue when any apps requiring accessibility is enabled.
Just push the apk in
Code:
/system/app/
replacing the original one with this mod.
Sorry guys was not able to make a flashable zip my phone is the only device I have right now to access the internet(no computer) so would really appreciate it if someone can make a flashable zip for me
Update
Added flashable zip
Download here
And as always... Deodexed ROMs only. Don't flash in a pure stock odexed ROM it will break your lockscreen.

Great, was waiting for this one. thx.
Hi! Added flashable zip
Question....
May I ask what were the issues with the apps using open accessibility? I use Knock2+
and if I need the fix, which out of the two attachment do I need? Do I need to flash both of them? or just the second one as the file name suggested its purposes?
Just come across this thread from a post on the trickdroid forums...
This is great....just installed the zip on my HTC One and its seems to be working perfect at the moment....if theres any issues I'll post up after a days use...
It's made me a happy chappie tonight..:good:
Cheers

For instance, I have a pebble watch that requires the pebble app. The pebble app requires that you start the service for pebble in the accessibility settings. So an option at the top under services you have to turn on. As soon as you turn on one of the services there - as far as I know any service not just pebble - it will make the lockscreen broken. So from that point on just touching the lockscreen anywhere will unlock the device. You don't have to swipe up the lock or clock anymore. And you can't pull any of the app icons up to load into those. It just unlocks the device as soon as you touch the screen. The big problem with this is if the phone is ringing in your pocket. As you pull it out of your pocket and it rubs against your leg/pants, it will unlock/answer the call. Now occasionally I don't want to answer the phone. Its been a big problem.
Thanks to the OP for this fix. You are a life saver! Or at least a sanity saver.

I flashed the zip in the download link and now my phone won't go past the "starting apps" screen after boot and before lockscreen shows.
I even reflashed the rom (dirty) and it won't work. Can you make a flashable file which puts the original files back so I can adb push it on my One.
I am on Trickdroid 5.5.1. by the way.
Please Help.

I have replied to your PM. Please check your inbox
I can't reproduce your problem so please try wiping dalvik cache or deleting the folder /data/data/com.htc.idlescreen.base/
And if it still persists try doing a factory reset instead.
Doing a dirty install of the Trickdroid ROM should have restored the original lockscreen app so I'm pretty sure it's something to do with your dalvik-cache.
Just try wiping dalvik-cache for now it shouldn't delete anything so it's safe.
So I guess the fix can only be used if you're rooted and that sucks cause I am not

Yes no other way at all sorry Better issue this bug to HTC then and wait for an update with a fix.
Is there a specific place to report these bugs? I mentioned this issue to them on the technical support form, but I'm not sure if it's the right place.
Either way, thanks for the help OP.
Yes it should be on the technical support.

I was wondering if this mod would negate the option to disable exchange server security? I've flashed trickdroid and applied this mod, but now my exchange server is requiring a password/pin on unlock. I'd like to be able to disable this when I'm home in tasker and I have that setup, but now it doesn't work. I think it was this mod that removed that feature from TrickDroid. Do you know the answer?
@Riyal since installing this fix I have a problem with the proximity sensor while on a call. Sometimes the screen goes black as soon as the call connects and the screen doesn't come back on. Sometimes the screen doesn't turn off when I hold the phone to my face and sometimes it does turn off but won't turn on again.
Is this problem related to this fix? Is anyone else experiencing this?

Hi! I'm not sure about the exchange server mod as I am not using it. I'll take a look at the mod soon and see what was modified on it and see if it conflicts with my mod.
And by the way could you give me a tutorial/guide on how and where to get an exchange account to test? Pardon but I don't really use that feature at all.
Anyways I am using exchange activesync on my phone right now but only using live.com account. And I'm not sure if having a private exchange server is needed.

Not sure if it is just mine, however the reasonwhy the GVoice is listedthat way because on mine it tries to set up Gmail and when skip is hit it freezes. It will allow you to text, however only through contacts and will not let you read them for some reason.
Been looking into it all night.

Sounds good im going to donate on 15th to em this makes it so easy to theme I love it I hope gets fixed
Sounds cool, can't wait till I can give it a try during class tonight!
i have been talking to him, however when you theme does it make you sign into your account again when you go to the market or is this just me?
I went to extract the file and it notified me that there are duplicate files, name wise, in the \New folder\RedAndBlue\3g\stock area both labeled framework-res.apk. How exactly you got it to name two files the exact same i dont know, but this may be an issue that is causing troubles that some are having with the particular theme
Hmm found a bug I believe. In the sounds area when I click Get Installed Sounds it starts CMD , starts the daemon wityhout really doing anything aparant. If you try to click it again I get an error saying "Error; The same variable cannot be used for more than one control. The current thread will exit. Specifically vDevSounds Line#162: GUI,Add,ListBox, x600, y113, w260, h500 vDevSounds, %formated%"
Also the application is not work AT ALL for me. I have my Xoom in debug mode but whenever I click a button in pimp it flashes a few CMD windows real fast then sits there. I reboot and nothing has changed.

Thanks, thats what I thought. Still trying to figure my new NFC tags out. Even bought Tasker which lets me shut the screen off when i place it next to the bed.
I set one tag as a switch to turn BT on/off when i put it in its cradle in the car. The problem is when the screen goes off, if I turn the screen back on, the NFC tag is read and BT is turned off. I should have not stuck the tag to the cradle and to some other place in the car I guess.
This is almost as fun as flashing ROMs!

I don't have any issues and from what I've read, the battery life is superior. I can go a full day with streaming SIRIUS/XM for my 45 min ride to and from work over bluetooth, browsing, email, 2 or 3 phone calls, and I will still have about 20% before I go to bed.

Actually on aokp ROM control there is an option to set nfc profiles. You could set it to always on or only when screen is on. It's cool

any update? Anyone made the mod yet
anybody? this would be great
[EDIT - Feb 27, 2013]I've merged both post into one. Also, I've zip-aligned both versions so that it uses less RAM on your phone. Attached are both the lockscreen and screen-off versions. Pick the one you want and rename to Nfc.apk before using
I've been searching for so long for this to be possible for the SGH-T989 but nobody had made one. After almost a full day of work starting from never having decompiled an APK and ODEX file, I've finally got a working version! :laugh:
I do not know how this will affect battery life.
Nfc-lockscreen.apk - This version will let NFC to continue to function while the screen is ON and LOCKED. The only time NFC should not work is when the screen is OFF.
Nfc-screenoff.apk - This version will let NFC to continue to function while the screen is ON and OFF, LOCKED or NOT.
Just a note, there is a "deep-sleep" mode on most Android phones that will disable NFC regardless. The phone goes into deep-sleep mode when the screen is off for too long. I do not know of a way to keep NFC function while it is in deep-sleep mode.
So, just to be clear, I have a Telus Samsung Galaxy S II X (SGH-T989D) running ICS 4.0.3. This hack should work for the T-Mobile SGH-T989 as well but I'll need someone to test it to verify. Finally, my device is rooted.
Pre-requsites:
SGH-T989 or SGH-T989D running ICS 4.0.3 or 4.0.4
Must be rooted, so you should have SuperSU
Have someway of copying files into \system\app\ - such as in my case, using ROM Toolbox
The modified APK file below, select the version you want and rename it to Nfc.apk
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU BACKUP YOUR NFC.APK AND NFC.ODEX FILES IN \SYSTEM\APP\
If you do not know how to back it up, the steps below may be too complex for you. Try and figure out how to back those up first before proceeding.
Plug your phone into your computer. Copy the modified Nfc.apk to the root directory of your SD card on your phone.
Start ROM Toolbox and go into the Root Browser.
Browse into \system\app\ and delete Nfc.apk and Nfc.odex (assuming you have them backed up already).
Browse to \sdcard\external_sd\ and copy the modified Nfc.apk to \system\app\.
Press and long-hold the Nfc.apk file in \system\app\ until a menu appears. Select Permissions. Change the permissions to 0644. (Owner: Read & Write, Group: Read, Others: Read)
Reboot your phone.
I want to thank wrapper's initial post here that eventually lead me to mayhemer's post here.
Enjoy!
In case people wanted to know, I basically did this:
Changed
Code:
.field static POLLING_MODE:I = 0x0
to
Code:
.field static POLLING_MODE:I = 0x3
Copied and overwrote applyRouting() method from mayhemer's nfcmodsgh-T999_screenoff_UVALEM.zip to the stock one on SGH-T989.

Nice...I think this was possible already but I forget how I set it.
What I really I wanted was NFC to turn off with the screen off and turn on with the screen on even if it is locked with security or swipe. That way when I get into my car in the AM, I dont have to unlock the screen to tap my NFC chip. I could just turn the screen on, tap the chip, and put it in the holder. it would save me a whopping 3 seconds! all joking aside, this would help when I am wearing gloves so I dont have to take my glove off to unlock the screen.
I was trying to figure out how to set up Tasker to do this but failed miserably. There is definitely a way.

I don't think the stock ROM from Telus or T-Mobile can do screen off with NFC still enabled.
But what you're looking for, with screen on, but locked and NFC is enabled and when screen is off, NFC is disabled, that should be possible with another mod. I'll have a stab at it tonight if I find time. Now that I know how to do one, it shouldn't be as difficult to do the other one too.
[EDIT] Please see above for the modified Nfc.apk file.
Sorry for the delay. But here it is, the modified Nfc.apk file that allows NFC to continue to function when the screen is in the lockscreen. NFC will NOT function when the screen is off.
Follow the exact same instructions as above but use the modified Nfc.apk file below instead.
I didn't test it, so let me know if it works or not.
Side note: After using my screen-off version of the NFC mod, I've noticed that the phone has a deep-sleep mode where NFC mode is disabled regardless of my mod. I don't know what the threshold time for when that deep-sleep mode is engaged but just FYI. As for battery life, I haven't had a chance to really compare yet so I'll update when I get a chance.

I'm glad it worked! Some Stock ROMs don't have the .odex file because it is already inside the apk file. So don't worry about it.
Let me know how it goes battery-life wise.

This has no noticeable affect on battery life! Nice work. I am using "Nfc-lockscreen.apk" and it does exactly what I want it to do. I had to come back and grab it after changing ROMs. TY!
I hope someone can help me out with this (I guess most of my posts arent worth bothering with as they usually go untouched by anyone). I'm trying to figure out a way to disable the touch button backlight on a Google Edition ROM. I have been searching for an answer since the Google Edition hit. All I can ever find is how to disable on GSIII ROMs (non ge). If anyone can please help me out I would very much appreciate it. Thanks!

Screen Filter is an app that can disable the backlight of the softkeys. Set it to auto-start at boot and you should be good. I know its not a direct fix but its a low impact app that shouldnt effect battery life or operation.

Seems to work for me. Did it dim the screen at all (thats its main function)? Did you see the check box "enable softkey back light" (uncheck it) at the bottom of the app ui?

Yes, it did dim the screen, but if i uncheck the enable softkey back light, anytime I touch the screen the backlights still come on. Are you on a G.E. rom? I am currently on Infamouse G.E.

No im not. I am on AOSP (Slim Bean) though.
There are options to do this in AOKP and CM roms. Anybody know how those builds pull it off?
Give me a minute to shower and I'll write you an app. All you have to do is install my app, reboot, grant it root access, and profit.

Thanks brother. Any luck getting that working? With all of the research I have been doing, I have found MANY people that want to get this option working.

Okay i am having troubles setting it to off on boot. But here is a "toggle" version of it where you can toggle them on or off. Will try and fix the boot issue tomorrow.
SWEEET!!! Works like a charm thanks dude! Like I said, I've been searching for this forever! I know that many others have been searching for this, perhaps you should make a thread in the mods section.

Q&A for [ROM] SlimKAT [8.2] [unofficial] [2014.09.30]
Some developers prefer that questions remain separate from their main development thread to help keep things organized. Placing your question within this thread will increase its chances of being answered by a member of the community or by the developer. Thanks for understanding and for helping to keep XDA neat and tidy! :smile:
after i finish flashing the slimkat 8.2.4 on HOX. i cant root access.
please help how to get root access with this ROM.
go to settings - developer options - root access, and tick "Apps and ADB".
Hey Teemo,
First of all you made an absolutely amazing ROM. I'm using it for the past few months.
I just did a clean install for the latest one, and found out a bug -
When you're using the camera face lock, after define your face and lock pattern for backup pressing Settings - Security just crashes all the time and there is no way of getting it back.
Thanks.
Does anyone use unbounce with this ROM? I always get an error that the app doesn't have the module enabled. Also it doesn't prompt for superuser.

Awww, I can confirm this.
But you CAN get it back!
Here is the trick:
Code:
Open Settings - Navigation
Chose Hardware buttons or Navigation bar - any will do
Choose a key or button
Select "Custom app"
"Activities"
Scroll down and tap "Settings"
Scroll down and LONG PRESS "Unlock selection"
Enter your code
Select new lock
Now you can back out without saving to the key/button.
Great! Thank you.

Yes I have it. It does not use su (Xposed already have the needed su access), but it is checking for root at first start. Did you try the new version 1.41 ? -> "Everything looks great".
Actually just bought the author a "latte" to check it out. It's an excelent idea, let's see how/if it works

I have that version with xposed 2.6.1, module is there but the app says it isn't enabled. Reinstall xposed?

Same here.
The app need a reboot after you have enabled it in Xposed. I got the same error first time i started it. Solved after reboot.
Just want to say how fantastic this ROM is for me. I have never had a problem at any stage, even though I always dirty flash every update. I would be a unique android user as I do not use gapps or Google services on my phone. Since then my battery life has doubled and data usage has decreased. So thanks again for a fantastic ROM and all your work is appreciated

Is it only me, or the battery drain is a bit higher in 8.8 than it was in 8.0?
P.S. the thread name should be changed. 8.2 is already old now Maybe it's called only SlimKAT unofficial, without version number

If HOX get updated to lollipop then maybe. I don't have the knowledge to do this alone.
Anyone else's auto brightness stopped working as of 8.8? Or do I have hardware fault?

Hardware fault is not normal. Dirt can do it, but then you will see it.
Wonder if a dirty flash can do it, there were changes to settings as I'm sure you have noticed.
Could you try Sensor List from play store to check if the light sensor is okay?

Permissions problem? any idea how to fix?
I've also noticed the accelerometer has stopped working.
edit: OK dirty flashing 8.9 fixed it
Hi guys!

Mobile network problems
I'm having problems with my mobile network since I installed this rom.
When I dial a number the signal disappears, this happens at least once a day.
The phone is then disconnected for a few minutes and then reconnects.
It always happens when I try to dial.
It happens at home, where I know the signal is fine.
Any ideas? Maybe upgrade the radio or something?
Otherwise everything works for me.

Flash boot.img and erase cache from bootloader. We had these problems before, long ago. Should not be there anymore.
If you cannot fix it, you are welcome to send a Bugreport. Easy to make from SlimCenter.
Lollipop zip provided by: asif4self & MarshMallow zip provided by @bumpaneer. I am just posting these for everyone to use. Be sure to thank them both!
There have been issues reported of not getting calls at all, if that's the case be sure to have a nandroid, no one mentioned in this thread will be responsible for anything that happens to your device.
For the record this will remove stock sense dialer so make sure to make backups!
How to install:
1. Download zip Lollipop here - MM here
2. Place in SD or EXTSD if you downloaded on your computer.
3. Reboot to recovery.
4. NANDROID (seriously don't get mad at me or @asif4self or @bumpaneer if anything goes wrong and you don't have your own backup)
5. Wipe Dalvik Cache + Cache.
6. Install zip.
7. Reboot and enjoy!
If you have any questions just ask here. Also, don't forget to thank @asif4self & @bumpaneer.

It works! Didn't have sound for a bit, but it's up and working now.
As for professing love in a manly way, it's a lot of fumbling my words and kicking the dirt and I stare at my feet. Oh, and I possibly offend you unintentionally.

Thank you for this i like the GPE dialer instead of the sense one
I still use ExDialer, but would love to switch to GPE if I could get the same look out of it... black with dial-pad taking up less than half the space and at least 3.5 contacts from Call History showing at the top (plus swipe contact row right to call or left to txt).
Is any of that possible with any mods?
Thanks for this!
It's working for me with one small problem. The keypad doesn't seem to work in-call. Is this a known problem with a workaround?

My keypad works just fine during calls? What's your setup? Maybe try wiping app data via settings>apps>all and choose phone then clear data.
No dice. I had messed with trying to install GPE Dialer before finding this mod, so tomorrow I'll RUU and try it fresh to see how it goes.

Working fine with stock rom and Viper for me. Was buggy for the first few calls though, but seemed to settle in.

Are you rooted? I'm running non-rooted stock Dev Edition ROM. Flashed the zip but new dialer does not show up. Still have Sense dialer and cannot find the GPE Phone icon in app drawer. I can see in the app in all Apps but no way to open the app.

I am rooted yes ... If sense still shows up means it didn't flash right... Or maybe disable sense phone app in settings>apps and reboot see if it shows up.
I'm having the same problem on Viper.

Keep in mind, it was buggy for me for about 5 minutes. Been working fine since.
I'll install one more time and give it a few hours. Is there any chance this is a problem for me because I'm on Verizon? Are dialer/phone mods like this carrier/radio agnostic?
