First and foremost, this would not have originally been possible without all the hard work zimphishmonger and the3dman13 did to bring fighspit's original battery mod to the vibrant, please see the original thread here, and give them some thanks! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=756441
I'm also borrowing zimphishmonger's warning, as i think it works to keep warning messages standard across all these battery mod threads.
WARNING: ALWAYS make a nandroid backup prior to installing any modification, including this one. You are making the decision to install this on your own, and I am not responsible for anything nuclear that may happen to your device.
UPDATE.. I lost count (10/5/2010)
So I dig Eugene's Frankin-twiz rom's, but I still want to keep my accurate battery mod, and well, I think his glossy-black skin is ugly. I also think the stock vibrant touchwiz skin is ugly (for the love of all that's holy samsung, why did you decide the vibrant would be the ONLY galaxy s phone to get your stupid glossy version of touchwiz?!)
So, I ported my battery mod to frankin-twiz and at the same time, ripped all the matte (non glossy) drawable's from the I9000 touchwiz skin, and added in my colored status/signal, mms, calendar, music player, and gmail icons, restored the black background for the power control widget, added HTC's weather icons to GenieWidget.apk, changed to the stock I9000 bootup and shutdown animation and sounds, and of course, I probably missed something else too, lol. You can see some (semi-outdated) screenshots here: http://picasaweb.google.com/113127051130934911253/AndroidStuff?feat=directlink
Also, if you find yourself being a typography nerd like me, you can use this zip to switch the default system font to Comfortaa I take NO CREDIT WHATSOEVER for making the original font, or the android port, I only re-packaged the files into a Clockwork-mod zip file for the vibrant. This will also change the lockscreen clock font to comfortaa, but ONLY if using the default android lockscreen.
Comfortaa system fonts: http://www.4shared.com/file/hYu1TYHL/Comfortaa_system_fonts_ONLY.html
New for ftwiz_final: I'm including an extra version with the samsung calendar AND the AOSP mms app, per Eugene's thread, since it resolves issues with being unable to send sms/mms messages. I'm also including the newest version of my battery mod (this is the version I personally like best and use daily), based on the upright/vertical icons, but with colored borders/outline, and a smoother charging animation (thanks to untermensch!) This can be applied on its own, after you flash either of the other versions. If flashed without flashing one of the other versions first, it DOES NOT contain the gmail/calendar/mms/music player icons, or the startup & shutdown animations and sounds. You can see a screenshot added to the post below too.
Download links here, ftwiz_final ONLY:
Removed, sorry, too many people use other people's work without giving credit, and it leads to way too many headaches, he-said/she-said, ignorance, etc.
Everything should flash via clockwork recovery fine, place the zip on the root of your INTERNAL /sdcard directory, reboot into clockwork, I recommend wiping the cache & dalvik-cache, then install zip from sdcard, locate the specific zip, reboot.
Enjoy, cheers everyone, and if you come in here posting bugs/whining for help without first making sure you cleared your cache and dalvik-cache, then I'm just going to ignore you,
Looks Great!!!
Thanks alot works well on my phone
i love it! not a big fan of the round battery icon, so this is great
Great work! Glad to see everyone is making their own customized battery images. We are gonna have a battery collection soon.
just a quick update to the OP with a new version with some colored/themed status icons.
cheers

I did, switched from the green circle. The battery indicator works fine.
I used the circle one but saw this with the other colored icons and thought they were cool. Seems that they don't quite work properly. Stock the GPS indicator shows in the notification bar any time it's on. With the new icons from the op the indicator is only on if I'm in an app that is using the GPS. I'm going to flash back to stock then to the battery only mod (i figure I need to to switch the other icons?)

Hi,
Thanks for trying it out. I have no idea how there might be issues since this is literally just img replacement from the segmented green circular battery mod, so however icons should work with that mod, is how they should work with this mod.
Maybe run a fix permissions from rom manager and see if that helps?
Also, my GPS icon has never worked like you described, even stock, (in other words, mine isn't always visible in notification bar, even when not in an app actively using gps, its displayed only when using an app that needs GPS, and disappeared when exiting the app.)
If you want to try and modify your own framework-res.apk with these files, I may upload just my png images once I'm done replacing/coloring all the icons I feel like modifying.
Thanks again for trying it out though, cheers
Lastly, I got bored and colored the wifi icons, cell-signal icons, and vibration indicator icon, I'll post the framework-res.apk in the first post, but won't package a new update.zip until I decide I'm done modifying icons, lol.

Excellent work! I like the new colored signal icons. Consider possibly creating a metamorph of it, as they are very easy to update.

Thanks for the help in getting everyone started with the battery mod, now I just need to decide when enough is enough for theming icons, lol.
Anyway, I'm about to head to bed, but I'm attaching a zip with the signal icons I modded, so if anyone wants to make a metamorph, go ahead, just please give a link back to this thread when/if you post.

So I went back to stock to check and you're right. I must have imagined that.
I'll be switching back to your colored icons and battery now.
And as soon as you are done changing the icons and create a zip I'll switch to those. I like the color.

Hey again,
Glad I wasn't screwing up phone's, lol.
Anyway, I'm still working on changing all the icons, can't seem to decide where to stop yet, since now I've started modifying icons for other apps, gmail, mms, google voice, trillian, etc. And of course, now that I've gone with a slightly brighter green in the other icons, I may go back and tweak the color of my battery icon to match.
Anyway, here's a screenshot of some of the icons I'm mostly finished with (though for some reason I'm not digging the alarm icon, anyone have color suggestions for it?)

Yeah...sorry about that. Anyway I hate that stupid icon to begin with so maybe something totally different? I did a GIS for alarm clock icon and there are a lot of possibilities. I think that maybe the stock one with a red square and white clock could be good.
Edit: Maybe something like this

Great work.
so i just need to put this on my internal sd, boot into recovery and hit "reinstall packages" or whatever the hell it says? Im kind of new to all of this stuff.. so im just making sure you have to learn sometime haha

If you don't already have it, I suggest you install Koush's Clockwork Recovery. You can install it quickly by using ROM Manager.
Once you boot into the recovery ROM, you can back up your entire phone using Nandroid (highly advised) and then you're free to experiment to your heart's content.
Now back to your question: you can save the file to your internal SD card and search for it using the 'Install from SD' (or something like that) option in the Clockwork ROM, install it and reboot.
Good luck, friend.
What's the right way to revert this? framework-res.apk restore?
Updated OP with newest mod.
I think I'm done with this for a while now, though I might zip all the png files if someone else wants to try and make this into a morph when the app gets updated.
cheers,

Hi,
Yes, restoring your backed-up framework-res.apk will restore the battery mod. If you used the newer zip that also includes the Gmail icon mod, then you'll need to restore Gmail.apk too /system/app too.

Now that some cool things for the Fascinate are starting to show up, I kinda pieced some things together from different sources to come up with my perfect rom (for today anyways ).
I have been running jt1134’s Super Clean D101 rom for awhile now. I found that I like some of the Samsung stock apps that were removed from his rom a little bit better. I found that I really liked the stock clock, music player, and messaging (with the swipeable features). So I added those back in.
Also added was the Blue Minimalism v1.3 Theme for a little blue, and the black notification bar with the see-thru drop down menu from the “Blackmod”. It also has the stock, non-puzzle, unlock screen with blue.
The kernel is stock with no oc.
Just trying to share what I like at the moment. I take no credit other than mixing up some ingredients on work others have done. The credit really goes to:
Jt1134. For that awesome clean rom tons of us have been using lately!
Raiderrep. For porting over the blue minimalism v1.3 theme (thanks to the original developer)
Stanrc. For the black notification bar and clear notification drop down menu.
DroidX007. For pulling the stock Samsung apps out for use and for being brave to test the blue minimalism theme out.
This is a clockwork recovery file. Unzip and put file inside into your SD card/clockworkmod/backup file and restore from menu. If someone knows how to switch it over to an update file, or show me how to do it, that would be great.

Very very nice. I don't think I'll be flashing it though. I like the puzzle unlock screen and some of the bloatware that gets removed in this. I also like the neon blue loading screens, but I want to make them darker. I didn't think I wanted anything TW on my phone when I first got it but a few aspects of it have grown on me.
EDIT: We live in the same city :O I think I will flash this. I love blue. But what all gets removed, and what happens if I have certain things frozen with Titanum? Will they just be left alone?
Well man from the Burg, make sure you do a back up first of what you got before you flash any rom. That way, if you ever need to get back those programs, you are safe.
I dont use Titanium but I would assume the files will still remain in you backup folder. When they are frozen, the arent deleted. So as long as you keep that backup file untouched, you should be able to restore those through Titanium as well.
As for everything that is removed, the base rom is Jt's and you can see it here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=796171
All the essentials are there. Jt just removed a lot of the stuff that really was bogging down the system. He also removed some of the Samsung TW style apps and replaced them with stock android apps. I put those back in as listed in the OP.
Do a backup, flash it then you if you like it you can start adding anything deleted back into it with Titanium.
Also, in Jt's op linked above, you can get the puzzle screen lock back.

Alright. I hate the bloatware but I'm keeping it frozen so the Froyo update will be easy. I'm flashing now.
EDIT: Finally got it to run. Will this remove my lag fix?
EDIT 2: Why is everything wiped? I was not expecting that...
After restoring, backing up my contacts, and re-flashing, my contacts restored but my apps decided not to. But the phone just feels...faster. Do I need to restore, backup, and flash again?
Looks nice but I am not smart enough to make this work.

Use Titanium to reinstall all your apps. When you flash roms, you get real good at reinstalling your apps and settings. Hint, if you use LauncherPro or ADW, there is a backup function that will back up your screens exactly like you had it!
You should be much faster. JT really streamlined this rom. I love what he did!

Awesome, thanks!!!! How has battery life been for you? I have tried the deodexed version and it seemed to go down for me...so I reverted back to odexed. But, want to stay up to date.
Battery life on my Fascinate has never been the greatest but I didn't notice a difference when a switched to a deodexed Rom.
I've read the horror stories but not with my phone. Plenty of happy people on this forum who havent had a problem with the new deodexed roms either.

where may i get that pls??
I would love % on battery...otherwise it's awesome!!!!! Thanks.
I have not tried this rom, but I assume its deodexed because steeeler is using Jt's deodexed super clean rom. with add mods and tweaks like Raidereps Blue Minimalism theme and other sources as well that he listed at the OP. It looks like it should be a pretty straight forward rom its just not a zip file so it will be installed differently thru CWR.
Cheers

Sorry about that. Should have put that up. I added to the op.
Is there anyway to put the visual voicemail back in to prevent the dialer from crashing. If you touch the voicemail button the dialer will crash. That was my issue with JT's rom. I can't seem to get voicemail back in....
Otherwise this is a great rom. Thank you....

Good catch, first time I heard of that problem. I always just use the quick dial 1 to go to voicemail.
I wonder if it has something to do with the deodexing. This is a different dialer than on Jt's.
I'll poke around his thread to see if anyone has a fix

Hello
First I would like to thank bharat_goku for this awesome ROM, so thank you
Now lets get to the business
1. Sometimes I have an odd problem. Apps that are installed not from the market force closes. On some apps this problem fixes itself after half a day or something like that. Magic, isn't it? I remember reading in some ROM thread that broken APK signatures may cause force close problem. The question is how can i fix it?
2. Is there a way to replace current transparent status bar to default one?
3. Is there a way to remove recent apps from notification box? It really feels sluggish now and lacks some space.
4. Is it possible to get default 2.1 lockscreen running? If so, what would I need to do to get one running? However this is more like for experimentation
5. Is there a way to *lock* apps like Phone and Messages in memory so they could always respond as fast as possible. I remember them being auto-killed on some roms... I currently didn't experience such behavior on this ROM since I didn't get any calls but I would like to be sure
6. I suppose I could manage to find this one easily but since I'm asking already... Where could I find old market app?
7. I'm thinking of making swap file and enable Compcache since GB eats memory pretty fast. I've seen them doing magic on Heroine (Sense 2.1) ROM. I'm gonna try these tweaks when I find some spare time... Has anyone tried something like that on this ROM? Was it worth it?
Well I think thats it for now. I'm not afraid of (adb) shell so if some answers involves using it that would not be a deal breaker

I have found out that this problem is related to sd-card. It seems to be mounted as read only and some programs force closes when they cant write to that sd-card. I suppose this kind of stuff should be defined somewhere (maybe some ini file). So now the question is how can I make it writable.
P.S. I doubt it's my cards fault since I can access it through recovery USB mount without any problems.
P.P.S. I cant mount sd-card as disk drive through ROM.
P.P.P.S. I am also using LVX 0.6.2 so that may be a problem... I'll try flashing 0.5 when i get home
I guess I'm gonna need to reflash the ROM <looking for encouragement >

1. I think I've fixed it. I reflashed the ROM without wiping everything and now SD card works as it should, no FC's after that..
2. I have changed theme to Slate and then just accidentally changed back to default theme and the status bar is not transparent anymore
3. As stated few posts above the mod from SalsaSense works perfectly.
4. Same as 3.
5. It does seem to work well so I think it may not be needed here. However it would still be interesting to have some information about this.
6. Seems that old market app does not want to work with this ROM.. Oh well..
7. I've found out that compcache is not compiled into LVX kernel (or not enabled) so I could not test it out. About swap I did not test it either since atm my sd-card is too slow to even begin with something like that.
I hope this information will be useful to someone.
However I still have some issues... The phone drains battery in a day or so while doing nothing. Thats odd since with older sense 2.1 roms I could manage to push 3 to 5 days with light phone usage (really light, like 1 call a day, 3 texts and 10 mins browsing and of course alarm clock). However I did not use LVX kernel back then and governor was ondemand where now govenor is smartassv2. So battery life may not be entirely roms fault.
I'm gonna try to wipe battery stats and see how it goes then.
EDIT: Seems that wiping battery stats helped somehow. I don't have any idea how battery stats works, seems strange...

Well the thing is I used Slate theme from the beginning and then after having problems and reflashing ROM without wiping any data etc I changed theme to Default one. Since then the status bar is just like the original one, no transparency.
I have also flashed a mod that removes recently used apps from notification bar so maybe that has something to do with this. Strange.

I have also flashed a mod that removes recently used apps from notification bar so maybe that has something to do with this.

If you want the normal statusbar,just flash the battery mod from the optionals in the cdma thread....

The battery mod just changes battery indicator, notification bar is still transparent.

not really it reverts it to the default statusbar which is not transparent....
anyway i've removed the transparent status bar in Rose V4 so it shouldnt be a problem now on...
I found a bunch of places that people had modded the Rosie.apk to remove the text below icons in Rosie. I tried flashing a few zip's that were supposed to do this but it ended up just making Rosie FC because it wasnt for the Rezound's Rosie. I am running Ineffabilis v1.0 and saw on the MikMik Forums this has been done on many othe Phones/Rosie's. If someone could point me in the right direction I would appreciate it. I tried moving the resources.arsc from a no text Rosie into the stock Rosie but that didnt work out well. Thanks for any help.
Go into tweaks ....its in there

when people reference "Rosie" they are usually talking about the sense UI "dock". its the bottom bar on your screen.
I'm sorry maybe I wasn't clear about what I am trying to do. I know there is an option to "Hide Navbar Label" but I want to remove the text below the icons on the home screens. I know Launcher Pro and a few others have this option but I would like to do it with the stock launcher. This is what I am describing LINK.
Here's a Rosie.apk from BAMF ROM, with the text removed.
Well I gave that a shot and unfortunately it does still contain text under the icons. I appreciate the effort though. Hopefully other people will want this MOD and it will be a little easier to come by. If I knew what to edit I would gladly do it myself. Thats the one last thing that would make my setup perfect. It seems like I can find it for every HTC phone but the Rezound and they refuse to work on my phone.
I will double check that I uploaded the right one but that's what I'm using...
This will have my modified phone icon, but I can reupload an original theme version at a later time. I pulled this straight from /system/app, so if it doesn't work, it's something you are or aren't doing....

Well I guess it must be me doing something wrong. I have tried both Rosie's posted in this thread and for some reason I can get them to work but the dastardly icon text still exists. I am using one of the Beats skins, would that have anything to do with it? I am kind of at a loss as to what I can do. If there is a certain way to apply the Rosie please let me know. Unfortunately I feel like I'm losing the battle no matter what I try.
Try the default skin and see if anything changes. Also, how are you installing the different Rosie? Did your phone icon change to mine after you installed?
Yes the phone icon did change. I guess I will try using the default skin, switching the Rosie and going back to the beats skin. I cant see the beats skin being the reason the text would stay there but who knows. Ill give it a shot and keep you posted. Thanks for all the help.
*EDIT* Ok so I tried again after switching to the HTC skin and no dice. I have never had this much trouble with any mod on any of my five android phones. I have been insalling them by moving the edited rosie to /system/app and fixing permissions all via root explorer. I could try going the ADB route but I dont know why that would be any different. What was your process in getting it to work?
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27022937/BAMFSettings.apk
See if there's an option in here to disable it. I don't see one on my phone, but I recall possibly doing something besides installing the different Rosie...
Alright I tried that too. It wasn't in BAMF settings and I have basically tried everything under the sun to get this to work. I could easily use LP or ADW but I like all the sense widgets. I guess it just wasn't meant to be. I do appreciate all you assistance. My Rezound just doesn't want to cooperate. Damn icon text! Damn you right to hell!
One last thing...you should do a nand backup and hard reset, just to see. There is absolutely no reason that Rosie I posted doesn't just work. I stuck it in a new ROM I flashed last night and it worked from the get-go.
By hard reset you mean format/wipe everything? System, cache, dalvik etc... or something else? Its funny because I even put the Rosie you uploaded into the new BAMF Rezound cubed before I loaded it and for some reason it still didn't stick. There must be something that I am missing. I am no android genius but I am fluent in ADB and have dealt with about ten different android phones. I just cant believe this is giving me such an issue.

Yes, hard reset = full wipe (lingo from my WinMo days).
I don't know what to tell you. I loaded my phone with CleanROM and had it up and running for awhile before discovering BAMF ROM had the textless Rosie...all I did was DL BAMF, stole the Rosie and dropped it in...did a restart with dalvik wipe and all was well

I also pulled the Rosie.apk and bamfsettings.apk from BAMF 1.01 and, after copying over the original to somewhere safe and checking its permissions, I dropped the 2 files into /system/app, fixed permissions, rebooted into recovery, wiped cache and dalvik and rebooted normally.
You will lose any non-HTC widgets on your home screens, but you can set them back up.
BTW, Bamfsettings is, itself AMAZING.

You can drop apps in /system, first, change permissions, then transfer them to system/app without ever having any disruptions in data/home screens/widgets/etc. This goes for all apps...
Your Rosie is now textless?
It worked with all the updates til now? Anyway to get it working?
SystemUI, probably just got some updates. Have you tried adding your .pngs to the new systemui.apk? Still no go?

I was running the blue soft keys and now when I put them back in sytem/app I get force closes and the entire nav bar disappears. Any ideas? I really hate the skinned look Asus puts on them. Thanks in advance.
Swiftks hit the nail on the head, there were some changes to the SystemUI that breaks older versions. (I know, captain obvious over here) Give the developer of the theme a chance to update the PNG files, or do it yourself. I ran into the same problem yesterday and copying the PNG files I wanted into the new SystemUI.apk fixed it.
I'm not sure how to do that. The nav keys I was using are just stock ICS blue. If you or anyone happens to have a link to some I could use with the updated files that would be fandamntastic. I can't seem to find the thread where I downloaded them from. I know they were on XDA but I've been searching since yesterday. Thanks again

Make sure to copy to correct folder, and select "store" for the compression method, that way they are not compressed.

Yes, I am putting the file in system/app and the file is not compressed. I've done this with each of the updates and now it doesn't work. I was thinking it may be because Asus added the lock function to the nav bar. Once again if anyone has another file they could point me too that would be awesome. I can't find the thread that I got my ICS blue buttons from.
