i added flyin in my theme

Confirmed working on Virtuous v0.7.2 Rom using Fold anim.

I don't know if it's just me or if this is a problem throughout but this either doesn't ever work as a metamorph, or putting this within the ROMs framework gives fc floods BUT, I do see that it makes the change that way.
What am I doing wrong? I followed the instructions and even tried my own variations. Signing, not signing framework/update.zip but no positive outcome...
Would someone be kind enough to post a working stock cm6.1final framework? I know it's a lot to ask but I'm giving up here. For some reason, I've had problems theming since nightly 12 and can't explain why. Wiping has always been an attempt within the trail and error but it always ends up as an error.
I was able to modify a theme posted here by removing everything but phone/contacts.apk, re-signed and then flashed it and it worked. But there was no framework-res.apk change...
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

EDIT:
I figured it out. What worked was NOT signing framework-res.apk but changing it's name to framework-res.zip, editing ANY files you choose and then renaming back to the original framework-res.apk
then you place that into your ROM and sign the rom.zip
worked pretty well. I really like flip so far.
Thank you for posting this!!

[Q] Help with services.jar?

Ok so I have read some about making changes to the services.jar file and am afraid that it is a little above my head. So wondering if someone might want to help me make the following change?
I would simply like to remove the location icon from my status bar.
If I was to upload my services.jar file could someone make those changes without having the rest of my framework?
Thanks!

Flash this in recovery and you should be good to go, worked for me. REMEMBER to nandroid first.

That would probably work if I was using stock framework, but I am running the super z ported rom with completely different framework. Someone will have to manually make changes for me.
Thanks though.

What are the exact mods you are using already?
I can combine them for you just let me know which ones you want to use.
Ex.... no clock and no location.
P.s. it is currently setup to only show location icon when location services are being used.

i know editing but dont know how to make file from .rar to .apk

Ok I did see a glimpse of twlauncher landscape but it just fc's again
Sent from my GT-S5830 using XDA App

I got in touch with a modder who created a script to enable landscape touchwiz in SGS ..he said he ll try,lets hope he succeeds
using my leisure time to figure out the solution..plzz recommend about this to modders if you know any...this can happen only if we unite..

Hi.
I had a look at your modded launcher from post #1 and it seems you are familiar with apktool!?
You only have to edit AndroidManifest.xml, change nosensor to user (see below)
Code:
android:screenOrientation="user"
What I read in this thread, it seems you have the same problems I had with my modded launcher

It may happen that the first flash won't work (even with an alternative launcher installed). If that happens, restore the original launcher and retry again. Another thing I don't have an explantion for...

Second time you flash the modded launcher it should work (I don't know why).
And don't forget to install another launcher while flashing
Hope that helps
I can upload an edited apk when I'm back home, but it seems to be easier if you try by yourself (as I don't have a Galaxy Ace to test).

[Q] How to reodex framework files ?

Hi all, just a quick question to chiefs : how do you manage to reodex framework files ?
I found some time ago a script by stericson but it gives me bootloop (system/app and framework..).
Also i would like to know how you add SGS2 lockscreen to a rom ? (Of course i mean after decompile etc.)
There is no tutorial on these questions, i'm not a dev but i really would like to do so on darky..
Thanks in advance to my hero !

I think i'm not the only who wants to know that.. i hope !

I'm at work now so i can only point you in the right direction. Google for dexopt-wrapper. Hope this help

Yeah thanks that's the first thing i've found, with the script..
But it gives me bootloops with reodexed framework files..

[Q] Edited framework-res.apk

Can anyone edit a framework-res.apk with no mods other than adding the crt animation? I've found guides on how to edit the bools file in the res/values filder inside the apk, but I can't get it to recompile the apk correctly. Can someone tell me how or send me an edited apk or something?

If you want to post your framework file, I'll do it for you and send it back.

I just posted several of these for Caulkulin's 3.0 rom. What are you using now? His framework, but with a stock battery look.

You need to check the error and see whats wrong with the framework file. Also you just want a stock framework file with crt on? Also what are you using to compile and decompile

I was using apk manager 4.9, and I have no idea how to read the log.
I attached my framework-res. It's stock from FD19, I probably should have specified.

If no one gets to it, I'll mod it when I get home.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium

All done. I tested on my phone. After I replaced the apk, I had to manually restart the phone for it to work. I placed your apk in a zip file before I uploaded, so make sure you unzip your apk before putting it back on your phone.

Thank you so much, it works very well.
Now I'd just like to know how you did it. Coming from a clean computer with nothing installed, what would I need to decompile an apk, edit it, and compile it again? I'm trying to get a handle on the whole thing to do some development myself.

Try and upgrade to Apk Manager 5.02 since I just de-compiled and then compiled your apk file without an issue. Also try and update everything associated with it like your java... But it seems quite fine to me
Edit: just tried yours again as well as removing animation I lowered autobrightness which is something I do on all my roms for better battery life.. Try that mod next

Do I have to do anything to set it up or is it good to go from install? Should I restart my computer?
Also where can I find 5.02? I had a lot of trouble finding 4.9 in the first place.

I've never used apk manager, so I'll check that out also. I used apktool to mod your framework along with all the java runtime files it needed to work.

Apktool confused me so I used apk manager. I can't figure out how to get apktool to work. Do you have a link to a good guide or anything?

There are some good ones on xda. I'll link you one when I get home.

I was apparently using the gingerbread method for an ICS build. Would that have kept it from compiling correctly?
