[MOD][Xposed] GCalMonthDetails - Enable/customize event text in GCalendar month view - Xposed Framework Modules

This is a simple module to fulfill requests here and here.
It's an adaptation of the original smali mods to the Google Calendar found here by @shaftenberg. There's preferences to allow you to customize how the event text looks in Google Calendar month view.
Tested against Google Calendar 20140414.
I didn't have time to find/create an app icon for the module; I'll get to it eventually.App icon added to v1.1
Standard xposed module stuff; install Xposed Framework, enable app_process, reboot. Install this module, enable in Xposed Installer->Modules, reboot.
Also available in the Xposed Repo.
Source is available at my github
(screenshot of calendar borrowed from shaftenberg's post)

Not unless the Google Calendar comes with a widget already. This module just takes the manual smali edits that were normally needed to enable event text in month view and makes it so you don't have to do any of that.

Hi agentdr8
thanks so much! Great! I tried to built a quite easier module without success. But I´m new to java coding and still learning.
I wonder if you would send me the source code of your app, for digging into it for studying and learning?
One little bug in your module is the events text size in the first row of the month view. Your text size modifications are used for nearly all calender fields, but won´t be used for the text in several fields. If I change the view to landscape and back, or to week view and back, all fields are fine. So this bug only exist, when I even open the calendar app. Please take a look at the picture here:

I'll see what I can find. It seems to only be on days on the first line of the screen, whether it's previous month or partial new month, so it's probably a different view that needs modifying.Found occurrences in the middle of a month prev/next to current. Hmm.

It´s always a whole row -> this means a whole week in the month few.
Do you need logcats? If so, where is the logcat stored (path), when I enable this function in your menue?

I don't believe any errors will be thrown in this case. The debugging output goes to the xposed error.log, but this seems to be caused by the view getting inflated prior to the values being modified. I'll be digging through the GCal code some more today to see if I can figure it out.

Uploaded new version to repo and OP. Found the issue causing the odd text size bug and it should be resolved now. Also added an app icon. Enjoy.
I'll get the source up to github later today.

Thanks for sharing this. I've always hated the fact this wasn't a native feature of GCal.
I've even sent feedback several times requesting in. Even had a response one time asking me to elaborate. Thanks again!

Thank you, very useful !!! and much more in landscape mode !
could you add an option to hide icon app in launcher?

I can add a pref for this when I have some time. In the meantime, most launchers have the ability to hide icons.

Not unless that calendar app already has this functionality built in (but disabled). Most OEM apps like Calendar and Email are written from scratch and don't use AOSP code as a base.

Is there a way to enable this in the stock android calendar? Package name: com.android.calendar....looks just like gcal but i could never get gcal working on my system

Does the stock calendar show the details in month view when in tablet view? This module basically takes advantage of built-in functionality in the Google Calendar app that's disabled when not in tablet mode.

[MOD][Xposed] Statusbar Scroll to Top

Requires Xposed Framework!
This module allows you to tap the status bar to scroll (smoothly, at least that's what the API says) to the top of lists.
This isn't compatible with all lists in this first version. Chrome for example isn't compatible, or some manufacturer lists (like the Contacts app in TouchWiz).
If this is patented by a fruit-based company, it'll most likely get a C&D, so keep that in mind when you look forward to updates
Demo:
Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e6-sOWhwY0g
Video as GIF, FWIW, http://i.imgur.com/vNBTbQs.gif
Known bugs:
Manufacturer specific lists and some other custom scrollers (e.g Chrome) aren't supported yet.
Compatibility:
4.0 - 4.4 probably, I really haven't checked the source code, tested on Sony's 4.3.
Source:
The mod is open source: https://github.com/MohammadAG/Xposed-StatusBar-Scroll-To-Top
You may NOT distribute this app on the Play Store, paid or free.

It's Apple's not mine
That's stock behavior on iOS.
A bit far fetched, but do you believe it would be possible to add support for more than the standard list? Such as webview?
Since it seems a lot of apps are actually just frontends for a page in webview, plus a lot of browsers using webview, I imagine this could be the next target of your thinkering and would cover most cases. It would be great to be able to scroll to top in a browser too.

I'm looking into Chrome, they supposedly use some kind of standard scroller, since they have the blue overscroll indicator.

nicely done, works flawlessly... i have few suggestions/comments
-having little issues with facebook app, it kinda works: moves up by a little but not all the way to the top.
-if possible, allow user to choose the scroll speed when status bar is tapped on? to me, it is kind of slow sometimes... just my opinion
anyway, really appreciate your works for xperia devices. :highfive:
many thanks:fingers-crossed:

Facebook switched me to the new version, and it works fine there, I guess you'll have to wait for the update that includes that, or Facebook downgrades my account
Second part is controlled by the system, I use a method called smoothScrollTo(0, 0). I'm not sure if that can be easily changed

If you get it magically working with Chrome chances are you'll make it work for a lot of other apps. So that's sweet. :laugh:

Seems like it causes certain apps to force close. Tapatalk for example, if I go in a topic then back by pressing the back key to my followed topics then press the status bar it will force close. What do you need from me to help diagnose this?
Edit: it does scroll to the top before closing though.
Edit 2: doesn't crash anymore, found out it's because of a broken pvr driver. Ignore this haha
What theme are you using? Is it a CM theme or something I can do with Xposed?
Really awesome module too! Saw it on reddit
Great module, thanks!

@defim
Absolutely brilliant.
This module helps fix some other toast related issues I had with using buttered and burnt toast. Now I have harmony and control.
Thanks bro.
BTW, I get toasts from Go Launcher Prime that do not get registered with your module. Is it possible to fix this?

EnhancedToast should record every toast, it hooks to a android function. I had never used Go Launcher. Could it be that this app uses a own "toast" method? Try to enable full logging in the settings and watch the logfile if such a toast is created

OK...I will try to watch the log.
Just to let you know...maybe a clue...both Burnt Toast and Buttered Toast modules work with the GoLauncher Toast. So in other words, they both see and modify the GoLauncher toast. Other app toasts tested so far are seen by all three modules (enhanced/buttered/burnt toast)
Can it change the color of the toast?

EDIT 3: Working now, but with a disadvantage: All "launcher" apps do not get new settings immediately, they need a reboot..
Thanks for the module, Nice be able able to control the ever growing number of toast messages.
I haven't encountered any errors, but I do have a feature request.
I would love to see some form of pattern matching, to filter on that.
If you look at the screenshot I block the TB "Number of app data elements:" toast. But since this number changes all the time I need to set it for every number. That's not very practical.

Reboot is not required if the "reload always" is enabled (=default). I should not write anything before i have done it ...
There are some apps which uses "special" toasts, like Swype (eg on changing language), EX File Explorer (eg on "back" touch) or GO Launcher. They all could now be handled
Btw, i just pushed another update. There was a bug which could prevent recording of any toasts :silly:

So i am back xD, with another bug(ish) report when using/having snapcolors installed and activated snapchat has some connection issues on wifi,and doesnt work on 3g connection keeps saying "Could not refresh menssages pl try again"
Cool idea but I got 2 problems. First the size does not work for me and yes I typed the number and tryed double clicking it a lot of different ways. Second, when I click the volume down button once it skips thru like 2 or 3 colours so its kinda hard to go to the one I want. Also please add the default transluscent colour cause after I click thru the colours It isnt there so I have to take a picture again so it comes back. I have a samsung galaxy s4 if it helps and thanks for making the module.

[XPOSED] Chrome Color Killer (for default address bar color)

I quickly got quite annoyed by Chrome's new 'feature' of showing customized address bar colors for certain websites. I simply prefer my address bar (and anything attached to it) to be the same default color as it always was.
As there was no option in chrome to disable this feature, I wrote this tiny Xposed module that intercepts the call to 'getThemeColor' for the chrome tabs and simply returns the default color instead.
Tested on Galaxy S4 (GT-I9505) running CM12.1
// Edit:
As I was not that consistent with my naming scheme, the name in the Xposed repo turned out slightly different: "Chrome toolbar Color Killer"
(For those interested that were unable to find the module)
Thanks for this, was annoying me too!
Seems to work fine on my Nexus 5 running 6.0.1

I'm sorry but you can disable this by tapping chrome://flags/ in your url bar and search for the option to disable

I can't see that option in flags. What is it called?
i don't see the option in flags either, but maybe i'm missing it?
also I can't get the chromecolorkiller apk to work - i've installed it but headers are still changing color... am i doing something wrong?
thanks

Same. It worked at first but after a few reboot all is the same as usual
Same here.
Running today's CM13 nightly (23-02-2016) and Chrome version 48.0.2564.95
Xposed log says this:
02-23 10:00:22.103 E/Xposed ( 6901): java.lang.NoSuchFieldException: No field mDefaultThemeColor in class
does it support any chrome builds and derivatives? beta/dev/chromium/caf
hey man, it's just an idea for you, but could you make this work the other way round too? i mean, forcing chrome to tint the bar of a webpage in a certain color.. it could be a pro feature so you could make some cash i'm no programmer so i don't know the technical difficulties behind this but it sure would be awesome
Sorry guys for not replying any sooner, but I've been crazy busy at work
Also, I got myself a new phone which remains unrooted for now, so any of the issues that may occur with the Xposed module I cannot reproduce.

From your log I assume that Chrome has moved some internals around since I built this module. Perhaps someone would be interested in picking things up and figure out what to tap into to disable this annoying feature once more.

Would not be able to say this for certain, but my first guess would be No. Apparently chrome itself also became incompatible

Sounds like a great idea! Though that is one hell of a lot more complicated than what I was aiming for. I would be happy to share the code I have with anyone who might be interested in fixing / updating stuff. Maybe they could also figure out a way to include your idea.
For now I won't be working on this module anymore, but if someone would be interested in the source code, just let me know. There's probably a way I can share it...
A simpler idea is to make the bar always default to a color, for example black. Coupled with chromium night mode it would be the ultimate night browsing experience.
Let's fix this great module!

I really love the feature of this module.. And I also like the idea to set a user-chosen color of the toolbar for each website (for example I LOVE black!!) So if you can share the code (preferably for Android Studio) there are many chances to succeed! I am a developer too and I already build some "tests" Xposed modules.. So let me know! Thanks
..And sorry for my English but I'm Italian xD
Great module! Not working for me at the moment though. Not sure if chrome has been updated recently.
Thank you!

It no longer works, could you try to update it so it will work again?

I've actually wanted this for quite a while. That's how I found this module.

You could share the source code on github. I do not have any time right now, but I would be interested in working on it, come April (2017). That is, if someone else has not already done it by then.

Discussion for BoredSigns — Custom SignBoard Widgets

Ever wish that LG had given the V10/V20 more widgets in the second screen? Well, wish no more! BoredSigns adds many more widgets to your SignBoard (get it? SignBoard --> BoredSigns?), ones you may need and ones you may not.
The best part about BoredSigns? It doesn't need root! That's right; you can get some brand new widgets on your completely Stock V10 or V20. In the future, ADB may be necessary for certain widgets, but right now, you don't need your computer at all.
Current widgets:
— Information
— Weather
— Image
— Navigation Bar
This app is open source! If you aren't willing to pay $0.99 to buy it, feel free to build it for yourself. I only ask that it not be re-distributed without substantial modifications (i.e. more than changing the theme and name).
GitHub: https://github.com/zacharee/BoredSigns
Google+: https://plus.google.com/communities/105544332208886942595
Feel free to open an issue on GitHub to suggest a new widget!
Package name is com.zacharee1.boredsigns
I already have it and its working flawlesly ?

I have to see if Yahoo will let me ask for future times with the API. If it does, I can make another widget.

Their free API is limited to 50 calls per day, whereas Yahoo is at 2000.

Don't see the app in the store... Is it in the paid android apps section of the forums?

Search by the package name in the play store.

I bought it in the play store (I want to support any development for the 2nd screen).
I have to thank you just for the simple fact that at first, I didn't know how to run it... so I went into the 2nd screen options. I had no idea that I had other widgets that I could run. I never thought to tap the "..." on "Show when main screen on" so I have been stuck with the basic options this whole time. Worth my $1.05 right there.
So, after using it for a few minutes, I noticed the persistent notification for BoredSigns, so I long-pressed it and turned off all notifications. Will this negatively affect the operation of the app? I did notice that when I swiped my notification shade down, or when switching between widgets, the 2nd screen options would come on, so I restarted the phone. It doesn't seem to be doing that anymore, but I did have to toggle weather on and off a few times to get a real location and not 100*F in Philadelphia.
Bonus question... where can I find out more about the "yet unreleased AOSP implementation of the 2nd screen?"
Found the perfect image for the second screen a mod one of the best football team in the world...perfect fit and color !
Happy user here....thank you again for this :highfive:
So someone suggested I do a navigation bar widget. After lots of Java reflection (the actual tool, not thinking about my life with Java), I went with a simple Accessibility Service.
Because of that, these functions will be available:
- Back
- Home
- Recents
- Split Screen
- Power
- QS Pulldown
- Notification Pulldown
If there are any other (simple) buttons you might want, suggest them. I'll add them in if I can.
Here's what it looks like right now:
