[Q] help with theme GreenDevDroid Ultimate (solve)

friends
someone could help me or raise the issue with the original purpose of the windows, and not use that brings the theme
and try changing the original XML (xmlsForStandardWindowAnimation.zip), but the keyboard disappeared and I can not connect via USB, restarted
Greetings from Chile
excuse my English. jajjajjaajaaja sucks google translate
thanks

Hi.
Could you elaborate chronologically what happened/what did you do?

Hi
1 GDDUltimateForLGVoidEcho.zip extract files
2 Remove the framework-res.apk files
3 delete the files in the folder res / anim
4 Copy the contents of "xmlsForStandardWindowAnimation.zip" folder anim
5 sign "framework" res.apk "
6 compressed "GDDUltimateForLGVoidEcho.zip"with the new content "framework" res.apk "
7 signs "GDDUltimateForLGVoidEcho.zip"
install the theme with recovery, starts, but see some sort of errors that were closed following
google.process.gapps
com.android.email
com.mobileleader.sync
com.android.deskclock
the keyboard does not start (to write anything, numbers, names, etc)
I can not connect to usb
thank you very much for reading this and help

I hope you did nand backup your phone before installing the theme.
If you did that, do 'Nand restore' in recovery menu, reboot
if you did not do that, you need to reflash void-echo, reboot, install any void's modules such as kernel, a2sd, gapps, etc. that you want.
After making sure your phone is OK, try these steps:
- redownload GDDUltimateForLGVoidEcho.zip
- redownload xmlsForStandardWindowAnimation.zip
- extract contents of xmlsForStandardWindowAnimation.zip to a directory in your PC
- copy GDDUltimateForLGVoidEcho.zip to a file, say you name it 'temp.zip'
- open temp.zip (just open, not extracting it) with 7-zip
- while opening temp.zip, navigate to directory 'system/framework'
- doubleclick framework-res.apk
- navigate to directory 'res\anim'
- drag-drop previous extracted files from 'xmlsForStandardWindowAnimation.zip' to this directory ('res\anim')
- close 7-zip, answer 'Yes' when asked whether to update contents of framework-res.apk
- sign temp.zip
- copy the signed zip file to sd card and flash it
Hope this solves your problem.
Cheers.

This tutorial is for de-odexing a
particular application u want..
follow the steps below..
Initially download the file attached
"dexopt -wrapper.rar " and extract it
on PC..
1) Add the file called 'dexopt-wrapper '
in system/bin on your phone and
copy the apps you want to deodex to
a folder on your sdcard called apps\
2) Then from windows cmd you run
the commands
- adb remount
- adb shell
- dexopt-wrapper sdcard/apps /
whateveryouwantodexed.apk /
sdcard/ apps/
whateveryouwantodexed.odex
- dexopt-warpper keep on doing this
untill all files you want to are odexed
- exit
3)when that's done, open the apk
files you just odexed in 7-zip /winRAR,
remove the classes.dex file and pus
both the odex and apk to the system/
app folder (or wherever they need to
be)
4)done
i guess this steps are much easier
than de-odexing for all apps

[TWEAK]Replace HTC Dock mode app

Hello!
I have found a way to replace the standard dock mode app on titan to an app of your choice.
First of you will have to find the guid of the app you want to replace Dock mode with. For example i will use the GUID of spotify: ca8d6603-a9ae-4a05-8643-baad091ecdd1
!PLEASE NOTE THAT I DON`T TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY DAMAGE YOU DO TO YOUR PHONE!
1) First go to HKLM/Software/HTC/USBDriver/DockMode with a registry editor of your choice.
2) Here you need to change the Value named AccessoryDockModeGUID to the GUID of the GUID of the application you to popup when you put the phone in the cradle.
3)Open a file explorer of your choice(I used windows mobile device center) and go to "\Application Data\PUBLIC\DOCKMODE" and make a backup of the file named "DockMode".
4)Now open the file with a text editor. You will see the following: "3570f057-6c31-4751-a0a7-899820af6cf4 1 1".
5)In this file replace "3570f057-6c31-4751-a0a7-899820af6cf4" with the GUID of your app for this example "ca8d6603-a9ae-4a05-8643-baad091ecdd1".
6)You should now end up with something like this: "ca8d6603-a9ae-4a05-8643-baad091ecdd1 1 1"
7)Now save the file and reboot your phone!
I have attached the original DockMode file and the original DockMode GUID is: "3570f057-6c31-4751-a0a7-899820af6cf4" in case you forget to take a backup.
//Lajba

And for HTC Car mode app
1) First go to HKLM/Software/HTC/USBDriver/CarMode with a registry editor of your choice.
2) Here you need to change the Value named AccessoryCarModeGUID to the GUID of the GUID of the application you to popup when you put the phone in the cradle.
3)Open a file explorer of your choice(I used windows mobile device center) and go to "\Application Data\PUBLIC\CARMODE" and make a backup of the file named "CarMode".
4)Now open the file with a text editor. You will see the following: "0bfb1b34-aff6-4ac5-8952-9041fd94c760 1 1".
5)In this file replace "0bfb1b34-aff6-4ac5-8952-9041fd94c760" with the GUID of your app for this example "da8734ed-666a-4227-81ea-8fc937752d98".
6)You should now end up with something like this: "da8734ed-666a-4227-81ea-8fc937752d98 1 1"
7)Now save the file and reboot your phone!

Thanks. Just curious, what registry editors do you all prefer to use?

[TUT] How to deodex roms+set up Android kitchen(cygwin)+extract files from Kdz

INTRODUCTION
HI GUYS..!
Though there are many threads explaining about the set up of android kitchen and deodexing roms...i found it a bit confusing,as most of the threads take you to different threads which again explain the steps in detail,most of which though informative is unnecessary as they are General threads .. so,TODAY i will be explaining simple step by step procedures from setting up cygwin to doedexing a rom for our devices...
THIS THREAD IS FOR L3 BUT SHOULD WORK ON L5 AND L7 ALSO ( for extracting &deoxing-Only First generation ie; L3,L5&L7..Not for L3 II,L5 II, L7 II ,but the method for android kitchen is common for both generations)

Click to collapse
STEP 7- EXTRACTING THE KDZ FILE(For custom odexed roms proceed to STEP 9)
(For the users who don't know about the .kdz , it is the file format for the stock lg rom firmwares,...to download the kdz files goto-
http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=11 and download the firmware that suits you accordingly...im using v10k open eupore )
1.open the folder u extracted from my rar file

5. open the extracted DZDecrypter_v1.0b and do the same
6. now what we need is the boot.img ;recovery.img and system.img
7.make a new folder
8.to get the boot.img and recovery.img go to the DZDecrypter_v0.5 folder and copy the two files to a folder u created

STEP 9- EXTRACTING THE SYSTEM.IMG and deodexing the System Files
(FOR CUSTOM ROMS CREATE A FOLDER IN C:\cygwin\home\your_user-name\kitchen\ AND NAME IT "WORKING_090313_013348" AND COPY THE META-INF;SYSTEM AND BOOT.IMG INTO IT AND OPEN THE KITCHEN MENU AND FOLLOW FROM THE11TH STEP )
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
NOTE :custom rom users use can this command via the terminal emulator to obtain the system file's on the rom... it is recommended to do this on a Fresh installation or else you will obtain a lot of unwanted files along with the ones needed ..
Code:
su
tar -c system/* >> sdcard/system.tar

this will create a .tar file on your sdcard which u can latter transfer to your pc and extract using winrar or 7zip
The files needed are

/framework
/lib
/media
/semc
/usr
/xbin
build.prop

This method is only for first generation of L series. You tried to extract dz of P710 (L7 II) so obviously it won't work.
