Hi,
I'm trying to modify the ICS deskclock app for my device so that it simulates being touched when the screensaver mode starts. (if you touch the screen it dims the backlight a lot, and darkens the text).
I have some Android devices on 24x7 and the screens can't power off, so I need to dim the backlight down when the screensaver mode kicks in (deskclock is launched at idle instead of lock screen).
I've got the DeskClock source used on my device and have modified DeskClock.java by adding 'doDim(true);' at the start of 'Private void saveScreen()'
After compiling I got the APK but my device wouldn't load it (reported signature mis-match) so I used the .odex from the original APK not the one with my new package - now the modded APK installed.
But when I launch nothing seems to have changed - I re-compiled after changing the screensaver timeout value in DeskClock.java, but again it doesn't seem to be any different..
Is this because I'm using the original .odex ?
If so, how can I re-create an odex file to match the framework on my device for the new APK? (if I use the odex file generated by compiling the entire ROM is says something like the policy framework signature does not match?!)
If not, any ideas why nothing is changing? (I have no real experience of Java!)
Many Thanks!

Tool for automatic wallpaper changer, change wallpaper produces tudee, (in the start-up and locked WM) and in Manila. The change wallpaper only tudee or only in Manila, or both there and there you can customize the menu, you can also configure the time change from 10 to 720 minutes. In Manila, if you should tweak "background on all tabs, the background changes accordingly in all tabs. Pictures to change the wallpaper can be taken from any directory, the directory can be selected as all or selectively.
Tested on WM6.5.5 Manila 2012

cant find the thread I originally was getting info about for the "wallpaper changer" install i did????
was getting errors when restarted phone about WaPac so I removed the app and soft reset etc. Now I get following message....(also trying to get a good 'screenshot' program so I can show you easier, but had probs with bsbtweaks install also-another day/thread for that!)
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
The file "WaPac cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or onew of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file.

So I reinstalled, same problem, removed same message...
Any ideas, I guess Im not completely removing all I need to???

I have a Verizon LG Lucid with stock 4.0.4 on it. Here:imgur.com/Igb4l you can see my notification screen with a nice red box drawn around the items I would like to disable. However, before I can disable such items I need to know what they are called. I have tried every combination of words I can think of to google search but not no avail.
So here's what I need to know:
1. What are these items called?
2. Are they contained within the software of LG, Verizon, or stock Android?
3. Where would be a good topic to begin researching now that I know what's what?
Edit: I think the key here lies within systemUI.apk. I will investigate that.
Edit: I learned a lot about APK's and modifying them. Currently all I've been able to do is make the status bar disappear. Maybe it isn't actually in systemui...
Edit: Success! I finally got the wifi notification bar to "go away" by setting its height to 0.0 in SystemUI>res>layout>wifi_onetouch_layout.xml as seen in a thread about hiding the music player. A few problems I ran into: I had to switch the aapt that comes with apktool with aapt from the android SDK to build without errors. After it was built I had to copy META -INF and AndroidManifest from the vanilla SystemUI.apk then zipalign it. I used a root file manager on the phone to move and rename everything.
Here's a nice screenshot of my progress: imgur.com/YA7bu
first, my phone lcd desity is 480*800, so i have to modify the code file "PhoneWindowManager.java" which is under the road
framework/base/policy..., and the same time, i modify the module "systemui", the systemui is working after reboot the phone.
however, the module Setting is not changed ?
Hi guys, with my team we are working on an android device. At the moment we have accomplished the following steps:
Develop the PCB and touch screen to work with Android
Download 4.4.4 AOSP and customized the kernel for our device
saved source into GitHub and have a custom ROM with bootloader
So far so good, right now we have android running on our custom hardware (MIPS CPU) and we are quite satisfied with the overall performances.
Now we are starting the second phase of the project, and this is where we got stuck. We need to completely wipe out the UX and interaction of android 4.4.4 and create our own one.
This is what we need to accomplish:
Create a custom boot animation
Create a cutom animation for the battery charge
remove status bar (Time, Battery level) and pre-installed .apk
Create our own Android OS interaction with our .apks
Regarding the first steps, that's easy. We plugged into bootloader folder and started to change the animations for Battery and Logo. Regarding the rest the only solution we came up with is to have a sort of kiosk application that substitute the standard home screen.
Is there any other way to substitute the home screen with our own .apk? We have a built-in plug-in app so actually our .apk can pick up other .apk from file explorer and execute them. The problem is that we don't want to show to the user the underground system, so we don't want to show to the user anything except our home screen or kiosk mode app. Because the device will be used by commercial projects and retail stores.
What would be the best approach? Just remove all pre-installed .apk from the ROM (like calculator, browser, contacts) and execute an .apk in kiosk mode or create a new bootloader? Where we can find more documentation about this topic?
Hey guys,
I have a strange issue when adjusting my bootanimation.zip
the board im using is vim3l running android 9.0 and when i change my bootanimation.zip i get Process System Isn’t Responding error once android is booted and it makes my wallpaper black plus kicks me out of apps every 1minutes.
my boot logo is showing up while booting but the issue shows up once android is booted.
the only thing i adjusted was bootanimation.zip, is there any other file/folder that i need to adjust when modifying bootanimation.zip ?
* by restoring the original bootanimation.zip problem goes away and android works normally so is there another file that needs to be adjusted for the new bootanimation.zip’s file size or something related to it ?
Hi Atika-Plex
I'm currently encountering the same issue (on the same board). Have you find a solution ?
Personnaly, I tried several things (reducing the resolution, removing sequences, etc..) without succcess...
Please let me know if you find something.
