Requirements:
Code:
* Apktool or anyother tool to decompile/recompile apks
* [URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1330150"]LMT Launcher[/URL]
* Settings.apk
Step 1:
Decompile your settings.apk and your LMTLauncher.apk as well.
Step 2:
Inside of the decompiled LMT launcher, open the AndroidManifest.xml file and delete the below line. Now save and exit.
Code:
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
Step 3:
Navigate to the res->xml folder inside of your decompiled settings apk and open the settings_headers.xml file.
Paste the code below where you feel fit.
I have chosen to place the code under the "<intent android:action="com.android.settings.MANUFACTURER_ APPLICATION_SETTING" />" line.
Code:
</header>
<header android:title="@string/navigation_settings" />
<header android:id="@id/pienav_settings" android:title="@string/pienav_label">
<intent android:targetPackage="com.android.lmt" android:action="android.intent.action.MAIN" android:targetClass="com.android.lmt.LMT" />
Step 4:
Navigate to the res->values folder inside of you decompiled settings apk and open the strings.xml file.
Paste the following code at the bottom of the file above the "</resources>" line.
Code:
<string name="navigation_settings">Navigation</string>
<string name="pienav_label">Pie Controls</string>
Step 5:
Navigate to the res->values folder inside of you decompiled settings apk and open the ids.xml file.
Paste the following code at the bottom of the file above the "</resources>" line
Code:
<item type="id" name="pienav_settings">false</item>
Step 6:
Recompile the apks!!! Probably you wont get any errors!! If so post your errors i will try my best to help you out!!!
Step 7:
You may need to sign your LMTLauncher.apk as you have modded the AndroidManifest.xml file but no need of Settings.apk!!
Step 8:
Create a flashable zip and flash it!!! Using adb or using root explorer to replace apps may not work at times!!!
