Enable electronBeam Animation

Hey,
This recent leak of "gingerbread" from samsung does not have animation enabled by default. The code is there, they've just disabled it from the xml.
So here are the steps :
For developers :
1. Get apk manager
2. Put framework-res.apk in "modding" folder
3. Run apk manager, decompile with dependancy (option 10)
4. Drag twframework-res.apk into the script.
5. Go into projects\framework-res\res\values\bool.xml
6. Make config_animateScreenLights to false
7. Go back to script and select compile.
8. Say y
9. Say y
10. Delete resources.arsc from keep folder
11. Enter in script
12. U'll find unsignedframework-res.apk in "modding" folder
For users :
Code:
adb push unsignedframework-res.apk /data/local/tmp/framework-res.apk
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/stl9 /system
stop
rm /system/framework/framework-res.apk
cp /data/local/tmp/framework-res.apk /system/framework/
rm /data/local/tmp/framework-res.apk
reboot
Make sure settings -> display -> animation isnt set to none.

Hi Daneshm90,
Did you manage to decompile Settings.apk for GB? Funny thing now is that there is an additional apk in the /userprofile/apktool/ folder. There are now 3 apks (resoures.arsc):
1.apk
2.apk
127.apk
This is something new. Is it now the apks are tri-dependency instead of co-dependency for GB Galaxy s?

Nope these steps are standard. So you can pull your framework-res and undergo these exact modifications

You guys are using gingerbread leaked rom? Iirc it should be a prerequisite for this mod.

This will come in handy.
Thx.

Worked on JVK, thanks for this
EDIT: Added the resulting framework-res.apk
EDIT2: Complied wrong, all pngs are duplicated, taking up a lot of space. Please do not use this one. Use either danesh's or the one in perka's stash should be updated soon
EDIT3: The fixed framework-res.apk is in perka's stash here http://goo.gl/Lf7LF

Its a framework installation.
Just follow the adb instructions in OP. This is a framework apk, not a user apk.

U can use ones i posted. Click my.profile n search my posts. I posted it in jvk thread

I tent to get a lot of bootloops when i try to push the unsigned framework that i compiled. Adding the resources.asc manually (first take it out the framework and manually add it again with no compression) resolved that.
Is that extra step not nessecary anymore ?

Overscroll Glow For Advanced User

Some of maybe wonder how to enable overscroll glow in your theme..
since we have many ROM, and only some of them have similar framework structure..
Before that, thanks to Jun Hong and fla.sh for their [KPH & KPN] overscroll glow for SGA
don't forget to thanks him
This guide is for advanced user who have an experience in decompiling and compiling files using apkmanager..
So there it is, how to add overscroll glow manually..
1. Download overscrollglow source from HERE. Thanks to dhiru1602 for the source..
2. Decompile your framework-res.apk and framework.jar
3. Navigate to framework.jar.out\smali\android\widget
4. Backup Your AbsListView.smali and open it with notepad++
5. Copy everything inside overscrollglow source.
6. Open your newly copied AbsListView.smali
7. search for .local v1, layoutInflater:Landroid/view/LayoutInflater;, shortly after that you'll find something like const v3, 0x1090070 replace this with your values from original AbsListView.smali
8. Navigate to framework-res/res/values and open public.xml
9. Back to AbsListView.smali search for .line 666 and 2 lines below that you'll find similar value.
9.1. Now go to your public.xml and search for
Code:
<public type="drawable" name="overscroll_edge" id="
and then you'll find some value like 0x0108023d replace the one in AbsListView.smali with this one. DOn't forget to remove the 0 before 1 (example if you have 0x0108023d then replace it as 0x108023d so the line would look like this :
Code:
.line 666
.local v2, res:Landroid/content/res/Resources;
const v3, 0x108023d
9.2. Back to AbsListView.smali and look for .line 667 and 2 line below that you'll find same thing, replace it with overscroll_glow id in your public.xml
so the line would look like this :
Code:
.line 667
.local v0, edge:Landroid/graphics/drawable/Drawable;
const v3, 0x108023e
10. Save the file, and recompile your framework.jar.out, and then go to /framework.jar.out/build/apk/ and copy classes.dex from there inside your original framework.jar (you can open it using 7zip).
11. To change overscroll glow color, you can use UOT (I think), and modify them manually inside /framework-res/res/drawable-mdpi/ overscroll_edge.png and overscroll_glow.png
Yep, that's all
Let me know if you have hard time doing this..

well try deodexing it with this guide: http://androidguyz.blogspot.com/2011/04/howto-deodex-rom.html
you need to be deodexed to get that overscroll glow

Thanks, now my ROM is deodexed and I was able to get the effect to work, but now, all the system apps are having force close, I can open dialer, messages or any other system app, only user app like Gmail and Facebook. What can I do?
I also lost root =/

I fixed by reflashing the ROM, I'll not try to enable the effect or dedoex my ROM again.

Deodexing firmware should be did when your rom still fresh

It means the permission isnt fixed properly... i also had this problem. but when i fixed the permission properly it worked without any force close

Did you fixed using ClockWorkMod or you set manually?
Thanks, you were right, I set the permissions to rw-r--r-- and now everything is working, again thanks!
This is the framework.jar to use with the Brazilian FW KP2, replace using Root Explorer and remember to set the permissions to rw-r--r--, the same permission of framework-res.apk.

I just deleted the lines for the clock in that xml. I obviously didn't test it, so make sure you know how to recover if it doesn't work. The .zip that is attached is NOT flashable. I also put a working 4.2.x apktool in there with instructions for you to do it yourself if you want to in the future. It's pretty easy to do if you have a working apktool (I compiled this one from paulobrein's github since he edited the source to be compatible with 4.2).

Thank you dude i really appreciate..
This is, what i call help. Thanks and thanks again.
Cheers :good:
edit: i also tried yesterday with apk tool and succeed to decompile and recompile, sign the apk.
the strange thing is that the file goes from 1.5 mb to 1.12mb just by deleting one line
Indeed, it doesnt work. I dont know what's the problem

The size change might just because the zip is compressed more or less. It doesn't always mean anything is wrong. You can decompile it again and compare the contents with the original to make sure everything is there. Do you know how that mod is usually made? Is deleting the lines the correct way?

Have tried the edit myself,with SystemUI, dont sign it, open the original and copy META-INF and androidmanifest.xml over to your new file,let me know if it worked.
Just rename to SystemUI.apk and push to system/app and reboot

I did it in my ROM's Note 4 Settings. And removed Private Mode too. You have to decompile SecSettings.apk and remove the item from specific xml file in xml folder and recompile it back. I can write a name of xml file later when I will be at home.

3) Delete line: <header android:icon="@drawable/ic_setting_grid_spen" android:id="@id/pen_settings_menu" android:title="@string/pen_settings_title" android:fragment="com.android.settings.SPenSettingsMenu" />
4) Recompile SecSettings.apk
5) Open old SecSettings.apk and copy META-INF and AndroidManifest.xml into the new compiled SecSettings.apk to sign it.
6) Copy SecSettings.apk into Priv-app in the phone using Root explorer and set permissions to rw-r--r--.
7) Reboot phone and it's done
I hope that this can help you

Actually you no need to decompile it, just change the .apk to .zip.
The only thing to do is push the OP files into the ".zip".
After that rename .zip to .apk, and push to system.
You're done.
Hit thanks if I helped!
Note: The Z3 framework-res.apk don't have "value" this file. I tried to force push and it give me bootloop.
Note 2: Trying to use another method: compile the .apk by replace the zip.

sorry to bother you again @Pandemic I've just noticed all animations are very smoooth,but i found a small bug with the three-dot-menu animation...this animation is slow. I attached a screenshot so you will know which animation im talking about
