Hello everyone, i want a different lockscreen. I am using a launcher app from experiment.zip from i dont know anymore x( . And its 1 apk which divide in three apps if i use the launcher it crashes my phone and reboots xP. But i am able to use other 2 apps but they dont work 100% and i can only use the theme/lockscreen which only trigger the new lockscreen. And not the theme and icons. And i want to replace default with one off them (still need translation). Because everytime u reboot it use ur default framework-res apk one if correct and take maybe a few minutes or few screen off/on which triggers it but a few times after eachother which in case interrupt ur action xP. So is it possible to 7zip it in framework-res or in the defined app for it. Or does it need to be decompiled/recompiled which is tricky if correct aswell. Any help would and will be apreciated. Didnt know if i can post names of apk used. Let me know if its no problem i edit then a bit xP.

if its a zip i think you should flash it
I noticed that it is depending on my roms what frameworks work.... i have a stockbased rom, so i thought frameworks of stockbased roms should be working, unfortunately they werent all, and that can also be caused by systsmUI. Thats for what.my experimental phase lasted till now, i didnt come to edit packages (test phase :/)
there is a thread about building a rom where you can find a link to mods and there is one to tell you how to edit the apks witjout danger....
hope that i could help you at least a bit.... im no.pro at all

No to bad it isnt a zip file which i can flash. Its a weird extention. (.mtz)it can be opened with IZArc tool or renamed to zip experimented a bit already. It contains all images and manifest file with directions language etc. And a file named plain lockscreen. Which is also can be renamed to .zip. And i extracted them which have images and xml file aswell. I was just looking in the manifest. It uses smali code in de main app for the lockscreen. which i installed and reboots my phone on launch everytime. Is it possible to integrate those pieces of smali in framework or the systemui to be my receiver.It works anyway but i know maybe those 2 different locksreen receiver can be in the same app/framework orsomething. And i saw in both framework-res apk and the app which i use for those lockscreens uses almost 70% the same public id's in public.xml in decompiled folders. I hope someone can help me a bit further.

i would recommend you to ask the person that did this mod... i know those lockscreen pictures from apps like magic, miui locker (something like lockscreen launchers)....
If you extract it, is there system, meta inf and so on? like in a flashable zip? then you could extract it with 7zip and compress it to a normal zip to flash...
i really dont know more abput this....
so ask a dev if its that important to you

No they dont have meta-inf file and manifest. Its a Chinese home launcher app which have 2 apps which reside in the launchers apk. (Because i cant find the apk in system/app or data/app or the mnt/sec and /obb etc). And the launcher have a lockscreen reciever (smali) built inside which works to intercept my default lockscreen mechanism. With the new one just like on picture xP. And i gues i cant retrieve owner of apk i just snatched it from a miu rom.

Well i have my x10 with a custom rom,and installed timescape from the arc dump;everything's working good thanks to a tutorial on how to install it. My question is that when i had the stock timescape and published something on Facebook trough it;it said published trough sonyericsson xperia. Now with this new timescape it says published trough semc beta or something. My question is where do i have to edit to have the same as before;i mean published trough SonyEricsson and the SE logo like in the eclair stock rom. In the build prop? Or in the Meta inf of the apk? If so which apk should i edit. Timescape or Facebook. Plugin? Thanks for your time
u will need to modify the timescape apk...

i've tries that yesterday but i could not find the line to be moddified,maybe istalling 2.1 timescape???? just like the arc but with the eclair apk and settings.
Can some one pull the files please?
Browser settings
open browser, settings, select user agent. that is the only way I know, but they are pre selected phone id's but from what I've heard, when you manually change device id, it could lead to trouble. asthetics are something for the future, I'd be happy with a working timescape
If you had enough time you could decompile the app and find the string that says beta and simply replace it. Ive had a bit of app coding experience and it seems pretty simple. Like i said though decompiling such a big app and finding where the string is used and how many times can be a lot of work.
If you get me a link i can have a look but no promises

Hello,
Could anyone here pull from me the MIUI SMS application from MIUI ROM in order to install it on ICS?? i really like so much the app!
I tried to use GO SMS with a theme but it isn't the same thing like in MIUI
Help! and thnx so much
I am 99% positive it won't work, but if you feel like trying just download a MIUIv4 rom (doesn't matter for which phone) and use a file manager to extract it. Its located in system/app

As mentioned above, but only including because you asked.
Hello,
So, this is not really a theme as it cannot be "applied" : main apk`s are modded (framework-res, contacts, mms, phone, settings, systemUI, AccountAndSyncSettings).
!! Warnings !! :
1- Locales availables are EN, PT and FR, the others are deleted.
2- Made with cm7 nightly of august 12 2012, so it's compatible with neutrino 2.9. But if you're running Official cm7 you can have trouble.
3- Make a full backup before tryieng to flash this !
Some screenshots of this flashy carnival like theme : here
Cwm flashable Apk's : here
Option 1: fonts
Option 2 : RedCarrier (carrier name that appears in lockscreen / it's white by default)
OPtion 3 : Bootanimation made from NexusQ video.
Hope some people will like it. :silly: :laugh:
Why not make a metamorph theme? That way you can elliminate at least two of your three warnings, and it will possibly be compatible with other ROMs too.
I know ... but absolutely all the png are modified (some xml too) and it will be a big job to rename all of them. Or not ?
You don't have to rename anything. Basically you just extract all the png/xml from apks/jars, put files from each apk/jar in its own folder, create a xml file describing the theme, and pack it all into a ZIP.
Seems Like a Good Idea.

" create a xml file describing the theme" : i think this one will hurt in terms of time ...
Do you know a good tutorial ? I will have a look if some people like the theme.
thx.
Sorry, I don't know of any tutorials (although some might exist). I normally just take an existing theme and adapt its XML.
It shouldn't be a problem modifying an existing XML, the file is pretty simple and straightforward.
I tried to flash this twice on nuet 2.9 and nothing changed....? Maybe I need the theme engine?

No need of theme engine.
did you install CM7Night12.08.ApkAstrakanSkin.CWM.zip ?
If yes and assuming you are on stock neutrino 2.9 rom ... there is possibly a problem with my install script ... I going to verify.
yup ... it was a bul**** in my script ...
I'm re-uploading ...
Done. You can download and try again.
Sorry !
Thank-you and as I am sure you know you are right I am on neutrino 2.9 ....I will redownload now.
Yes it works and looks great....I needed something vivid as I work outside.

I noticed the font is to light to see when you set the alarm clock.
cool.
and feel free to give suggestions & critics.
Does anyone know how to decompile and recompile the framework for cm10 nightly build? I'm using Framework Toolkit by Themike *it simply cant recompile everything from original framework into new modded framework after editing the dimens.xml for osb's dpi (i assume, the modded framework (5MB+-) is significantly smaller than the original untouched framework (9MB+-), and the modded framework give bootloop). thanks
ICS apks are hard to decompile and and recompile. you got to search a lot to get a working apktool. the tool needed to for decompiling and recompiling.
moreover the apk is to be "signed". Just make sure you sign your apk.
you got to have a better understanding of xml for this. other than this i cant help. Good luck :good:
you can use mod to add OSB. it also provide modded settings.
Btw mate the system apps. Or files are not to be signed afaik and even if you sign it,you'll have to sign all system files with the same!
Isn't it?

Ghostfreak: yup, but i dun think CM team will sign all the apps they modify, are they? btw, nvm. I guess i better stick to ICS 1st, CM10 still kinda too buggy to be used on daily usages. JB source and resource for xperia are still too limited......
rajxelton: CM10 is based on JB 4.1.2, not 4.0.4 ICS (CM9) anymore of course the modding will be kinda different somehow, and CM10.1 is now 4.2.1 but under alpha release to test for development purpose. and ya, i do know those xml files under the values folder. i did made my own framework for my own use before.....
Guys, i am on CM9 205 and can you tell me whats the best and easiest way to remove vibrate on unlock screen and on answering call?
There is some flashable zip, but if i flash it when reboot phone it updating 66 applications...
Another way?
No one knows? Is it framework mod?
It is a framework mod

It is a easy mod,you have to edit framework.jar.
There is tut available for it,search it.

As i said before - there is a flashable zip for that, i looked inside there are many folders, one of them is framework - if i move it to appropriate thread with root explorer it must do it...
Updating apps is displayed when dalvik cache is built.It shouldn't happen every time .
If that zip is causing bootloops.
You can do it your own framework.jar.
Easy way,
Take your framework.jar from your CM9 rom.
Decompile it using apktool.
Edit like this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1749111.
Compile it and flash it to your rom.
