For UCKH7 Based ROMs
One of the things I liked on my Captivate was the mod to get rid of the increasing ring when someone calls you. The mod was very popular over there.
YG007 Made the original mods on the SGS i9000 which he also ported over to the SGSII i9100
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1230085
Here is an extract from YG007's thread:
"As long as I can remember, most samsung phones had this "feature" where when you receive a call, the ringtone will gradually fade in to the volume that you have set. This mod will get rid of that annoying fade-in and allow your ringtone to play at the volume that you set it to!"
Many Thanks to his work... All credit goes his way. I just ported it over.
Instructions:
MAKE SURE your firmware is deodexed and you are using the right fix to the proper firmware!!
1. Put the phone into "Flight Mode" either by holding power while the device is on and selecting Flight Mode from the submenu, or by selecting Flight Mode from the Settings menu.
2. Use a terminal, or root explorer, or any app you want to copy Phone.apk to /system/app/. Make sure the file is Phone.apk --(If you still get a FC, don't worry, just proceed to step 3.)
3. Reboot the phone.
Here's the Phone.apk File Link: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16195646/Phone.apk
I made a CWM flashable zip for you: http://db.tt/ESarCN5I
I haven't tested it, but theoretically it should work. If it doesn't, let me know.

Ummm to my knowledge... i777 sgs2 doesn't have that issue.

Strange... My phone had always had the increasing ringer. The effect on the SGS2 isn't as pronounced as the Captivate though.
The code is in the Ringer$1.smali file (Line 174)
Code: invoke-virtual {v1, v3, v5, v4}, Landroid/media/AudioManager;->setStreamVolume(III)V
Once you remove this line of code... your all set.

No but it might show up if you use an i9100 roms since the increasing ringtone is part of those roms if they don't remove it manually.

This is correct. It will implement the increase.
This is the 2nd Alpha version based on my original port of Miui 2.2.3
Change Log:
1. Use Succulent's CM7 kernel
2. Use miuiandroid's Miui Rom 2.3.30 for N1
3. Use Stock wifi modules and vendor files
4. Include Andy Thomson's Extended Settings Mod - http://miuiandroid.com/community/threads/mod-extended-settings-menu-options.7738/
5. Minor fixes
Credits:
1. Succulent - for the Kernel
2. MIUI & CyanogenMod Development Teams
3. Team B - Goncezilla, CeltiWebSolutions & Indirect - for the CM7 rom that provides great reference
4. Andy Thomson for the Extended Settings Mod

Instructions:
1. Copy the rom - NTMiui2330c.zip to SD Card
2. Boot into CWM and do a backup of your current rom
3. Flash the rom
4. Do a factory reset
5. Reboot
Not Working:
- HW Video decoding - any help would be greatly appreciated
- HD Youtube (I think it is related to above)
Notes:
1. If you encounter white text on white background - try turn on compatibility mode or change to a dark theme
2. This rom is still in alpha. Please post your feedback/solution here and help each other
If you like it pls hit the Thanks button or buy me a beer
I'm going to grab this in a minute. Mind if I ask how you went about creating this? I tried using the miui builder that's out there but got stuck.
Anyhoo, great work!

kind of mix and match and trial and error
I came from X10 and there's a guide on mixing the roms (it's buried deep in XDA but you can still find it at Modaco I think)
It's important to have a well working rom (in this case CM7) to base on
Need to get it boot up and read the logcat and change from there
Going to try this soon just wondering one thing does changing dpi fix icon sizes and/or does zeam launcher have an option to disable app drawer so its similar to miui launcher?
Wiped and installed it twice to be sure. I don't even get to a boot animation.
It just dies.
It's looking good so far. status bar is across the top too. Looks like it's a bit short on the left hand side cos there's a little square black box there right now. Will install screenshot app to take pic

I have not tried various dpi yet.
I don't think you can disable app drawer in Zeam. But if you drag everything out or set app drawer background to transparent then it's quite similar to miui launcher.

Try factory reset + clear dalvik cache after install. First boot may take a while

Thanks, for a while I thought my zip is bad from previous post.
I notice the status bar issue too. May need to experiment with different dpi and see.
Just installed, looks great! I did go into a boot loop the first time I tried to install. I then wiped/installed and wiped again. Booted up quick and easy after that. Other than the status bar, haven't noticed too much quite yet but its only been 5 minutes. Will post again later.

The newest update to button savior added an ICS theme. Not sure if that's exactly what you are looking for though. I've been using that on my Gnex for a week or so and love it.

More of an actual softkey row across the bottom like there is on ICS roms which don't have physical buttons. Make sense? Ill see if I can find something to show as an example.
Them soft keys. It'll shift the screen up slightly but it'd be decent.

yes the dpi does the trick
Stock Launcher Icons and Status Bar look much better now (but very big)
Use RootExplorer to edit the /system/build.prop as follows:
remove the following lines:
Code:
ro.sf.lcd_density.xdpi=169.33333
ro.sf.lcd_density.ydpi=169.33333
add this line:
Code:
qemu.sf.lcd_density=240
save and set permission to 644 (all read, top write)
Edit: you need also to replace the keyboard file or it appears super big. here is the LatinIME.apk taken from Nook Color rom. Copy it to /system/app folder and set permission to 644
then reboot
Problem
If you install a theme, the sliding down action wont work.

I installed a variation of the iphone unlock slider, and sliding my finger exactly where the arrow was didn't work, but right under the slider did work. Maybe try sliding your finger in different places on the screen? I don't know much about miui so I don't know if there is another work around....

WRONG SECTION
but i am desperate
THIS WAS POSTED IN THE skyrocket forum but since we share the same problem I post this here as well .
Part A_
1_ On the GNOTE 's Gallery a Simple hack to allow full size of 'wallpaper'
here it is : http://www.mediafire.com/?84yb70al1fewdhk
there is a known bug you need to select portrait size then you can reselect the landscape size
Using the Intl NOte's Gallery is bug free and allows that feature.
(not sure if this gallery will work well for the skyrocket users )
(but I dont think its needed either if you guys need a modified gallery I will post how to modify it also )
Part B_
_framework.jar\smali\android\service\wallpaper\WallpaperService$Engine.smali
find :
method doOffsetsChanged()V
then
find :
Code:
.line 735
const/high16 v1, 0x3f00
.line 736
.local v1, xOffset:F
const/4 v2, 0x0
.line 737
.local v2, yOffset:F
const/4 v3, 0x0
.line 738
.local v3, xOffsetStep:F
const/4 v4, 0x0
.line 739
.local v4, yOffsetStep:F
:try_start_0
iget-boolean v9, p0, Landroid/service/wallpaper/WallpaperService$Engine;->mPendingSync:Z
replace with
Code:
.line 735
:try_start_0
iget v1, p0, Landroid/service/wallpaper/WallpaperService$Engine;->mPendingXOffset:F
.line 736
.local v1, xOffset:F
iget v2, p0, Landroid/service/wallpaper/WallpaperService$Engine;->mPendingYOffset:F
.line 737
.local v2, yOffset:F
iget v3, p0, Landroid/service/wallpaper/WallpaperService$Engine;->mPendingXOffsetStep:F
.line 738
.local v3, xOffsetStep:F
iget v4, p0, Landroid/service/wallpaper/WallpaperService$Engine;->mPendingYOffsetStep:F
.line 739
.local v4, yOffsetStep:F
iget-boolean v9, p0, Landroid/service/wallpaper/WallpaperService$Engine;->mPendingSync:Z
note that the line numbers might not be the same .
if you use this in your rom please mention my name somewhere
a simple thanks goes a long way a coffee even further
I will continue to help as much as I can. We have a skyrocket and note so i am trying to pinpoint what exactly is different side by side
I'm not home right now, but I pulled the TW Launcher from the Captivate KK4 2.3.5 update. The dpi was all off, of course, but scrolling worked.
Also, I decompiled Launcher Pro as well since scrolling works on that launcher.
As soon as I'm back in front of a computer I can upload them for reference, if needed.
I am pretty sure onky 2.3.6 has the issue on the skyrocket
(scrolling works fine on ours.. 2.3.5)
Will upload files asap

i shodul have comsidered looking at the intl note but I didnt believe they had it working .

DAGr8, are your changes backwards?
My framework.jar has the smali code you're saying to change it to already.
Just out of curiosity, what's the procedure for recompiling and recompiling stuff like that? I do non-android related Java coding, so I know crap about androids internals, but I'd love to take a hacking surgical knife to things someday.

What I did to pull it and do the edits was to adb pull /system/framework/framework.jar then edited the lines in a text editor, then just adb pushed <location of edited file> (to) /system/framework/framework.jar
Hope it helps
EDIT::::
This is what I did, figure I'd explain on it.. adb pull /system/framework/framework.jar
That pulled it into my android platform-tools.
then I had to decompile the framework .jar I used the android apk tool to decompile it by in cmd (file location of the android apk tool) apktool d framework.jar ./out
which made a file called out. out>smali>android>service>wallpaper then find WallpaperService$Engine.smali
I edited the .smali in notepad.. Follow Da_g's OP to edit the lines. (For me the lines were the same as his, but may not be for you).
after you've edited it, save it then you have to recompile it.
back to cmd; apktool b -f -d out it'll recomplie it all to out>dist> framework.jar
then you need to adb push the framework back to system/framework/framework.jar
for me i used root explorer to make the /system R/W its quicker for me then doing it in adb shell.
Hope it helps those confused and I mean no disrespect to Da_g for positing this, just hope this would save some time for those that dont know how to do it.
And Da_g, if I posted this in the wrong place, Sorry, just let me know and I'll remove it.
Excellent!

Updated @ 11:24pm EST. New SystemUI and homescreen picture.
Note*
These theme additions were designed for CleanRom 4.0.5. I cannot guarantee full functionality on roms other than CleanRom or odexed roms. Flash at your own risk!
___________________________________________________________________________________
I don't theme as much as I use to but there are a few things I thought could use a touch of custom for the VZW Note 2! To start I was looking for something clean and stylish.
Multi-Window:
I did mine in a smoke clear w/ text. I can probably do other custom colors like purple, pink, teal, or even team colors. If anyone is interested, please let me know and what color they like. I am also looking to maybe do some S-Pen pointer mods as well.
Status Bar:
Replaced the 4G icon with same color and Robot font
Replaced the CDMA signal icon (4 and 5 signal)
Replaced the Wifi icon. (Icon still shows 4 signal levels)
Replaced the battery icon (new look)
Removed the "100% Battery" icon in left corner
Replaced Bluetooth icons
Replaced Signal null icon
Removed idle upload/download arrows. All others remain
Removed Alarm icon
I have included a homescreen screenshot to show some of the changes. I also attached a full preview of the new icons. Looks much more crisp installed!
Installation is easy:
1. After you download, remove the prefix so that it only says "FlashBarService.apk" or "SystemUI.apk"
2. Copy the FlashBarService.apk or SystemUI.apk to your SDCard or Internal Memory
3. Using a powerful explorer (Root Explorer, Solid Explorer, etc), move the .apk to system\app\ from SDCard or Internal Memory
4. Power off Device. Pull battery and re-start. Enjoy!
Looks awesome, thanks!

You did a reset correct? Just to make sure, you can try clearing data in Applications Manager. Find com.sec.android.app.FlashBarService and press "Clear Data". If this doesnt work then I assume it's because it is a odexed rom.

I did reset...twice. After reading your reply, I also tried clearing data and still get the force close. So it must be an odexed rom issue. No matter, I'll just have all my apps in there, not a real inconvenience.

Turns out, at least on Cleanrom based on 4.1.2, using the Xposed per-app dpi settings module, the "Freestyle Windows Mode" (thanks to BlackBass595 for finding this name) a.k.a (I think) Cascade View can be enabled by setting Android System to a resolution of 600x1024 or higher. No need to change dpi (can leave at 0, which is default) if you don't want to (Thanks to Gahh Its Lee who spent some time testing this to determine this).
**This will not work with TouchWiz as your launcher, as it force closes with any change in resolution or dpi** (Apex, Nova, etc. all are fine)
If you're on Cleanrom ACE and want to try:
Install the Xposed Framework app from here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574401
Grab the Xposed App Settings and install:
http://www.villainrom.co.uk/forum/microdownloads/xposed-app-settings.5/viewfile
Run the Xposed Framework Installer, choose "install/update".
Navigate to the "Modules" tab and check off Xposed App Settings to activate the module.
Reboot.
Open Xposed App Settings in app drawer, select Android System. Turn per-app settings on with the toggle, set resolution to 600x1024 or higher and save. Reboot.
Cheers.

OP:
Using Cleanrom ACE and Xposed framework to run per-app dpi settings, not sure if the latter makes any difference.
The first of the 2 apps I drag into multiwindow often, but not always, let's me "pin" and resize it. I can't figure out why it isn't an option for all apps? If anyone can shed some light on how this works I'd appreciate it.
It's a really cool feature, used it to "pin" and reduce the size of Xbox smartglass remote so I could control the Xbox while still having most of my phone screen operating as normal.

Bump.
Do I just suck at search (I tried) or does no-one know what I'm talking about?
I can't find anything about this anywhere, except that it was supposed to be an upcoming feature in the Verizon LTE Galaxy Note 10.1 - which is why I was surprised to see it in 4.1.2 which CleanROM ACE is based on.
EDIT:
So, I definitely suck a *little* bit as searching. This thing is called "Cascade View" and someone was asking about it in the AT&T forums:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2093306
But at least no one in that thread seemed aware that it is in fact an available feature (guy was on Cleanrom also).
Feature is detailed by Samsung in:

Still would love to know how to get all of my apps to work as free windows if anybody knows.
Never knew about this..I would like to know how to do this as well

Edited OP with info for trying this out yourself. I didn't notice this when on Jelly Beans (4.1.1) so I think it's 4.1.2 only.
Great find! Just got it working. Set 240DPI with 1024x600 layout for Android System and SystemUI. Looks great, and made an amazing phone ever more amazing. Thanks!
this is really cool.
do you always have to drag two windows into multiwindow, pin one of the apps, and then exit the other app to get this to work? it would be a lot more useful if i could just pin directly from multiwindow without having to drag two apps.

Unfortunately yes, for now. I'm hoping someone out there figures out how to port over the multi window dock from the Samsung tablets as they have button toggles for launching apps as a free window or in split view. I thought there might be a flashbarservice.apk that coukd simply be replaced but sadly it wasn't so simple.
If I ever find or see that someone else has figured out a way, I'll update here.

Also worth noting is this doesn't work with touch wiz launcher.

Thanks, added that to the OP. Too bad that didn't work for you though.
So, I tried grabbing a 10.1 rom to see if I could bring over some stuff and inject it into Cleanrom, but didn't have much luck as I don't know what all the dependencies are for multiwindow. Maybe if I spent enough time, but there might be an easier way.
I think the best solution would be to modify flashbarservice.apk so that it launches apps in freestyle and pinnable window mode by default. I decompiled the apk and dug around the smalis but I can't make heads or tails of it. Each line of code seems to do so little, and I can't find one where I can set "FREE_STYLE" or "FREE_AND_PINUP_STYLE" as a modifier for the launch intent, rather than "SPLIT_ZONE_A" or "SPLIT_ZONE_B" which it must default to. The Samsung SDK also keeps referencing SMultiWindowManager which I don't see a trace of.
No idea. Maybe something that actually knows something about coding apps could figure it out. It'd be really awesome to open up the apps in the window mode, just like a computer. There's even a button to maximize them to full screen lol.

Easy... Look for the smali code that says "use this for freestyle in other roms" ...you're welcome. Lol
I noticed that sometimes I could get the the pin to appear by swiping down at the very top of the window.

Interesting. I tried, I can't seem to get it to work with my clumsy fingers though.

LOL. I wish!
I got Eclipse and the ADT package and tried my hand at messing with the smalis. The AppListWindow and CenterBarWindow both have lines with what I'm looking for but I don't know enough about what the code does to know what to change. Plus, when I tried exporting the APK from Eclipse and loading it on the phone it force closed so I don't think I even know how to re-compile it properly.
There's no references to the resizeable window mode in CenterBarWindow.smali, only the split zone:
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
.line 739
move-object/from16 v0, p0
iget v12, v0, Lcom/sec/android/app/FlashBarService/CenterBarWindow;->mFocusZoneInfo:I
sget v13, Landroid/sec/multiwindow/Constants$WindowManagerPolicy;->WINDOW_MODE_OPTION_SPLIT_ZONE_A:I
if-ne v12, v13, :cond_0
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
In AppListWindow though, the resizeable window option is referenced:
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________
line 352
.local v2, taskInfo:Landroid/app/ActivityManager$RunningTaskInfo;
iget v4, v2, Landroid/app/ActivityManager$RunningTaskInfo;->windowMode:I
