how to remove lockscreen tint? - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I use the mult-livewallpaper, and it lets you change the lockscreen image also. Problem is, thier is an overlay or something that makes it too dark.
Does anybody know what I need to remove/modify, to get rid of it?
thanks

If you're running Cyanogen you can manually set the lockscreen wallpaper in Settings->Cyanogen Settings

I don't run cm7, I like the stock lockscreen because it works everytime with the fingerprint scanner. Widget locker etc... doesn't work that well with it.
thanks though!

you will have to edit the lockscreen image in the framework-res file, which takes some knowledge if you want to do it.

Its not an image, its a transparency value in keyguard_screen_unlock_portrait.xml in res/layout in framework-res.apk.
change:
Code:
<com.android.internal.widget.LinearLayoutWithDefaultTouchRecepient android:gravity="center_horizontal" android:orientation="vertical" android:background="#[COLOR=Red]70000000[/COLOR]" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
to
Code:
<com.android.internal.widget.LinearLayoutWithDefaultTouchRecepient android:gravity="center_horizontal" android:orientation="vertical" android:background="#[COLOR=Red]00000000[/COLOR]" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
May have to do the same for keyguard_unlock_landscape.xml if you have landscape unlock screens
If it's not that xml, which it may not be, look in the other keyguard xmls for transparency values that aren't ff or 00.

My bad, I think it is zz_moto_gradient_bg.png in drawables-hdpi.
Found this to lead me there:
Code:
<com.android.internal.widget.LinearLayoutWithDefaultTouchRecepient android:gravity="center_horizontal" android:orientation="vertical" android:background="@drawable/zz_moto_gradient_bg" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"

Bingo! You da man, That was it. I just made it transparent, overwrote the original...flashed it with your pre-scripted installer (Thanks for that), and it was good to go! Your how to theme guide is awesome too, Thanks for helping me!!

Thank you very much for this.

I will take RED toggles please, thank you!!!!
If you guys use VillainTheme System (you can just gank the template from my theme in my signature) once you recompile the apk, pull the XML file you edited, place it in the right folder within vrtheme (com.htc.resources.apk/res/values/) and it will work on any ROM by only overwriting that specific XML file.
OP, if you can give me a hand with something: I can recompile com.htc.resources with no errors and all, but hte ENTIRE values folder are missing from my newly compiled APK, even if I make no changes. I assume that has something to do with my set up but I tried resetting up my apktools folder a thousand times. Any insight?
When will you guys learn to use the search button? Seriously, learn to use it and help yourself out. The solution to your apk compiling issues was solved by this thread in May.
To the OP: It is always proper etiquette to thank your source.
FYI to everyone else: multiply color variable changes A LOT more than just the toggles. Use PIN lock for one example and notice what I mean.

I made it CLEAR that I'm not having any compile issues, I'm just missing the values folder when I DO compile. No errors. No nothing. Know why? BECAUSE I FOLLOWED THAT SAME EXACT GUIDE.

If you have the stock firmware there is no way to change either of the above items.
Personally, I think they should have removed the battery icon and just left the % there.
The lock screen was annoying when they changed to a camera, seeing as you can just press the camera button for quick launch. But if you hold the power button and then release after a second, you can change volume between silent, loud and vibrate, not as slick, but does the job.
If you are rooted, there is certainly a way to change the lock screen, but not sure about the battery.
Not sure, but if phone is rooted, try UOT kichen!
Might try something, could someone upload SystemUI.apk, framework-res.apk and SemcGenericUxpRes.apk?

It‘s easy if you can use the apktool .
Just modify the status_bar.xml,remove the line
Code:
<TextView android:layout_gravity="left|center" android:id="@id/battery_text" android:paddingLeft="4.0dip" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="@string/status_bar_settings_settings_button" android:singleLine="true" style="@style/StatusBarNotificationText" />
Or change the position of the battery_text!
Enjoy.

Remove NFC Icon

Thank you, that icon is really annoying.
Does it still take up space? Is there a way to remove the icon completely?

I tried to make the png as slim as possible. There probably is another way to remove it completely, most likely an xml edit.

On Samsung phones all it took was an edit to the feature.xml in the csc folder to get rid of it. The icon itself is a png. If there is a smali edit for HTC phones I haven't seen any.

hmm ok then maybe you're right about that. however pretty much every icon on htc devices is in smali...I don't imagine this one would be any different
Better late than never
I realize this thread hasn't been touched in a long time, but in case anyone asks the question in the future, I have a fix for rooted users.
Edit the file /system/customize/acc/default.xml
Find the line <item type="boolean" name="nfc_show_icon">1</item>
Change the 1 to a 0
Reboot phone
Icon gone.

I just wrote a small Xposed module based on Xposed framework to remove the NFC Icon completely. No need to modify the NFC.apk. You could get the app on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2467970
Works awesome. Thank you!
I know this thread is old but since the Xposed module doesn't seem to work for everyone I will post another solution. If you don't have the system/customize folder, the setting is probably in
Code:
/system/etc/customization/settings/config.prop
You just have to change
Code:
ro.nfc.icon.enable=true
to
Code:
ro.nfc.icon.enable=false
Very good solution for NFC Icon !!!

Just noticed your using the xblast app didn't see that before, don't know how that works.
You can decompile the SystemUI.apk change the two xml files at the locations indicated previously then compile the apk and install on your phone easiest way is to use vrtheming and just flash the changes you made through recovery.
You would need to understand deconpling and compiling of apk's and theming.
