Looks like the latest update removed the mirror app, which I used every so often. Does anyone have a download link to reinstall it? TIA!
It's hidden there somewhere. If you touch your search button (lower right) and search for mirror it will find it. Don't know how to get it back in the app drawer , but I had already had a shortcut to it on one of my pages.
Also turn the camera on and use it from there but It's multi step instead of the one click.

I'm looking for the app drawer shortcut, much easier to access. Is there any way to restore it?
You can't until they fix the camera issues they made... You can use the old camera.
I pinned it to my home screen by adding a shortcut

Did you have it on a launcher page. That's the only people I've heard of so far that still have it in the app drawer.
I just noticed this yesterday at lunch when my wife and I were checking our teeth for salad. I'm all stock and after the update, the mirror app is gone.
U already have a mirror app, turn on ur camera and switch the camera to the front one, problem solved no need for mirror app, or am I missing something?

Nope. I only had it in the app drawer before and it's still there.

mine is gone from the ALL APPS screen as well.. used to have a gray mirror icon that said MIRROR. disappeared after recent OTA 20.8.651.2
What's funny here is everyone will just tell you to either go get another mirror app or just deal with the fact that it's gone. The fact that it's totally gone from everywhere on the phone but the search function means that there is a problem that needs to be fixed, that something's not working like it's supposed to.
HTC pretty much tells me that they don't care and I should deal with it. Ya, I know that it's just a minor thing at most, but it still is an issue. I wonder what else is gone that shouldn't be. Not like we'd ever know, since these issues don't seem to be given proper attention anymore. The last thing I remember being fixed was back when the Phone shortcut went missing from the Lock Screen. They fixed that fast enough, right?
I know, I'm kinda ranting here, but wth? I want what I paid MY money for to work the way it's supposed to, as I'm sure some of you do.
I don't think enough people are complaining for htc to roll out an update just to fix this one thing.
I know the fix, and it isn't an accident that they hid the mirror app, because its still there. You can go into your app drawer, hit search, type mirror and it pops up. I re-enabled it in my ROM.

Why say you know how to enable it, and not show how?
------------------
The following should make the mirror app show up:
- Decompile HTCCamera.apk
- open up androidmanifest.xml in notepad++
- if the mirror icon is hidden either the activity for it is hidden or not there.
- if it is it should look like the following:
Code:
<activity android:theme="@style/mirror_window" android:label="@string/mirror_name" android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher_mirror" android:name="MirrorEntry" android:taskAffinity="android.task.mirror" android:clearTaskOnLaunch="true" android:launchMode="singleTask" android:screenOrientation="portrait" android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation">
<meta-data android:name="android.app.default_searchable" android:value="*" />
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
- make the necessary changes, save and recompile
Problem with editing the androidmanifest is that you have to resign all the apk with the same shared id, that's a pain to figure out, so you could just resign all the apk's in the system/app/ folder with testsign or in a batch with apkmanager.
Just remember to resign, if not the camera won't show up after a reboot.
EDIT: Just noticed that this thread was bumped.. Oh well, I'll still leave up the info above in case someone needs it

I've also seen it fixed by removing the following from \system\customize\MNS\default.xml
Code:
<set name="plenty" max="7">
<item name="package">com.android.camera</item>
<item name="class">com.android.camera.MirrorEntry</item>
</set>
Nice to see someone actually post a solution (even if the thread is 3 months old ).

Hi, just wondering if there was a good custom lock screen I could install on my wildfire. I'm using a custom ROM with all the Sense UI junk removed, and I'm sort of getting bored with the "vanilla" lock screen.
I tried Lock Go but it always asks for my default home option when I press the home button. The others I saw are paid apps and I can't pay until they add paypal support, or I get a credit card.
Thanks in advance
Try searching for an app called "GOTO", you might like it..
Looks like a paid app. Can't buy it yet until I get my credit card but also heard that goto Doesn't always work so well.

You download skins to Lock 2.0 (here) wich is basically a .zip with a couple of files inside.
You need to move <slider_backgrounds> and <slider_texts> upwards so edit:
Code:
<slider_text name="Default" textSize="18" fontFileName="" posX = "100" posY = "110"
textColor="#ffffffff" text="slide to unlock" />
and
<slider_background name="Default" imageFilename="slider_background.png" posY = "384" />
to something like (I dont remember exactly offset)
Code:
<slider_text name="Default" textSize="18" fontFileName="" posX = "100" posY = "70"
textColor="#ffffffff" text="slide to rock!" />
and
<slider_background name="Default" imageFilename="slider_background.png" posY = "344" />
Put skin.xml back to .zip file and choose install skin from Sdcard (You need crappy file manager too..), and you are all set!

Thanks so much! They look really good. maybe some a little too iPhoney, but I managed to get the slider in position with a slick AlienWare theme. I downloaded a bunch so I'll play around with them on the weekend and buy the full app as soon as I can.

Goto never worked properly for me. I always ended up with two lockscreens when I used it. One from Goto, and the stock lock screen.

Im not 100% sure but isnt there a way to make the sense lockscreen to be canceled?
I'm using something called screen suite, works great. I've always had problems with other lock apps giving me 2 lock screens. This is the first one that works 100%
I'be searched the market for "screen suite" but didn't find anything . Is it a pay only app?

Worked fine! The Lockscreen is easy to enable and disable, only thing that annoys me is if I have the phone in a offmode, (have pushed the powerbutton, to sleep) then if I got an sms or so, it unlocks by itself. I want it to unlock by pressing the powerbutton only, not that it unlocks itself by sms or something.
how do you install skin from sd card?

I think both these items are covered in the rom development area. Increasing ring needs a modded phone apk, and prevent full charge needs a modded systemui apk. Try searching or maybe looking before hand.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
For certain covered in both cases by the search button .

Looks like you need to decompile the systemui.apk and then remove the lines
Code:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.MANAGE_USB" />
&
<activity android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Dialog.Alert" android:name=".usb.UsbConfirmActivity" android:permission="android.permission.MANAGE_USB" android:exported="true" android:excludeFromRecents="true" android:finishOnCloseSystemDialogs="true" />

<activity android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Dialog.Alert" android:name=".usb.UsbResolverActivity" android:permission="android.permission.MANAGE_USB" android:exported="true" android:excludeFromRecents="true" android:finishOnCloseSystemDialogs="true" />

From the Android Manifest xml OF systemui.apk to disable the battery full notification
OR jusrt use the fix
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1070506
Can't say about Increasing ring but to remove Full charge notification you need to do the following via Root Explorer or any file explorer you have,
system/media/audio/ui/TW_Battery_caution.ogg and just add .bak next to .ogg so that it will look like TW_Battery_caution.ogg.bak. If you want to get back the notification then just remove the .bak.
Regards.

Thats what I thought the OP asked.
Technically he wrote.
How to disable
"increasing sound"
and
"full charge notification"
I only know where the notification part is.
And if decompiling and recompiling the APK is not in the repertoir.
I would suggest downloading the LeoMar KH3 based Rom (which I used to check the differences in) and then swapping over the AndroidManifest.xml from the system/app/systemUI.apk and bringing it over to the systemUI.apk in the RomXXX.zip your using, using 7-Zip.
I already throw out all excessive sounds but I'm also irritated by the notification waiting for me in the morning in the status bar.
Hi guys,
In portrait mode lot of games orientation does not suits Sony Tablet, because of its wedge shape, we are expection the orientation in such a way that we can hold the thicker side with our left hand..
The orientation must be defined somewhere in the .apk file !!!
can we change its value to meet our requirement???

Sadly not, im still looking for some help on this.
Ok, i found a way to do it. To hide any app icon you have to delete this on the manifest:
Code:
<intent-filter >
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
In this case, there is two times this code, one for the gallery and one for the camera. Just delete the gallery´s one and recompile.
Apologies in advance if this is a stupid question - I tried searching, and I also went through just about every option in Venom Tweaks to see if I could find it. But I just flashed Viper4G yesterday, and I have this status bar icon I didn't recognize - I looked through all the screenshots in the Viper4G thread and didn't see it in any of those. I attached a screenshot - anybody mind helping with a rather noob-ish question?

Or, if you feel adventurous, you can edit a file to get rid of it. I can't be bothered to toggle it every time I want to transfer files to my tablet or my wife's phone.
Navigate to /system/customize/ACC/default.xml, and change
