[GUIDE] Porting ICS Progress bar to GB

I hope this isn't posted anywhere yet.
This is a simple guide of porting the ICS style progress_indeterminate_horizontal_holo to gingerbread.
The progress bar animation when downloading and installing applications on android.

File to be edited:
framework-res\res\drawable\progress_indeterminate_horizontal.xml
Open it with notepad++ and paste this line of code:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<animation-list android:oneshot="false"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:duration="50" android:drawable="@drawable/progressbar_indeterminate_holo1" />
<item android:duration="50" android:drawable="@drawable/progressbar_indeterminate_holo2" />
<item android:duration="50" android:drawable="@drawable/progressbar_indeterminate_holo3" />
<item android:duration="50" android:drawable="@drawable/progressbar_indeterminate_holo4" />
<item android:duration="50" android:drawable="@drawable/progressbar_indeterminate_holo5" />
<item android:duration="50" android:drawable="@drawable/progressbar_indeterminate_holo6" />
<item android:duration="50" android:drawable="@drawable/progressbar_indeterminate_holo7" />
<item android:duration="50" android:drawable="@drawable/progressbar_indeterminate_holo8" />
</animation-list>
Additional Note: Edit your Styles.xml
And copy this attributes to it, look for Widget.ProgressBar.Horizontal and Widget.SeekBar
Code:
<style name="Widget.ProgressBar.Horizontal" parent="@style/Widget.ProgressBar">
<item name="maxHeight">16.0dip</item>
<item name="indeterminateOnly">false</item>
<item name="indeterminateDrawable">@drawable/progress_indeterminate_horizontal</item>
<item name="progressDrawable">@drawable/progress_horizontal</item>
<item name="minHeight">16.0dip</item>
</style>
<style name="Widget.SeekBar" parent="@style/Widget">
<item name="focusable">true</item>
<item name="maxHeight">13.0dip</item>
<item name="indeterminateOnly">false</item>
<item name="indeterminateDrawable">@drawable/progress_horizontal</item>
<item name="progressDrawable">@drawable/progress_horizontal</item>
<item name="minHeight">13.0dip</item>
<item name="thumb">@drawable/seek_thumb</item>
<item name="thumbOffset">16.0dip</item>
</style>
After it save the file place the files from the zip file to your desired drawable folder, on mine I used drawable-mdpi, and using apktool just compile your framework-res again, then you have the finish product.
If you liked my post, just press the THANKS button..:good:

Thanks, nice! Any chance you also know how to back-port Honeycomb/ICS notification framework to GB?

Replace or Place
Hey man, Do I need to place the code or REPLACE the existing one with that code?
I replace the existing code & picture and end with bootloop.....
Helpppppp:crying:
Thx a lot for this mod!:fingers-crossed:

Yes just replace it with the code above and extract the contents of ics progress bar.zip to your res\drawable-mdpi or hdpi. It's also working on 2.2 Froyo.

[MOD][GUIDE]WebOS style Task Switcher for Jellybean.

This mod is originally posted HERE by Evilisto and copy-pasting given code works for ICS, but NOT for JB. So, i worked out the little modifications to be done for JB, and it works, only you wont get the WP blue color as background. All actual credits go to Evilisto.​.​This can be done for any device running Jellybean, the only thing you would need to change are the dip values​.​
SETTING UP
REQUIRED STUFF.
-- Apktool. 1.5.0 works best for me, but if not, a previous version is fine too.
-- framework-res.apk from ROM.
-- SystemUI.apk from ROM.
-- Knowledge on decompiling, recompiling apks.
-- Notepad++ recommended.
HOW-TO.
-- Copy framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk to your folder.
-- Install framework-res.apk. This step is important.
Code:
apktool if framework-res.apk
-- Decompile framework-res.apk
Code:
apktool d framework-res.apk
This will give you a folder called framework-res. This is your decompiled apk.
-- Decompile SystemUI.apk
Code:
apktool d SystemUI.apk
This will give you a folder named SystemUI.
-- Alternatively, you can specify the folder name to be created. For ex : i want framework for framework-res.apk folder :
Code:
apktool d framework-res.apk framework
This will name the folder framework.
OR
Code:
apktool d SystemUI.apk System
This will give you folder named System for decompiled SystemUI.apk
==================================================
THE MODIFICATIONS
IN FRAMEWORK-RES.APK
-- Open framework-res folder. Navigate to res/values, right-click on Dimens.xml and select 'edit with Notepad++' or any other you may prefer.
Find default values of the following values and change it to given values.
res/values/dimens.xml
Code:
<dimen name="thumbnail_height">270.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="thumbnail_width">192.0dip</dimen>
===================================================
IN SYSTEMUI.APK
-- Save file, go back and open your SystemUI folder and open the res/ folder.
-- Copy paste the following code by editing specified files.
res/values/dimens.xml
Code:
<dimen name="thumbnail_height">270.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="thumbnail_width">192.0dip</dimen>
res/values/drawables.xml

-- Recompile SystemUI.apk
Code:
apktool b SystemUI SystemUI2.apk
-- Recompile framework-res.apk
Code:
apktool b framework-res framework-res2.apk
-- Open SystemUI.apk and SystemUI2.apk with 7-zip. Select open archive.
-- Delete resources.arsc, classes.dex and res folder from original SystemUI.apk
-- Copy resources.arsc, classes.dex and res folder from SystemUI2.apk and paste them into the SystemUI.apk archive.[/COLOR]
-- Now, here, i usually use Apk-Multitool but you can use CMD too. Now you need to zipalign SystemUI.apk. There are different methods, best is to download APkMultiTool and do it. Or if you have the SDK, you can do it directly through command prompt or terminal.
-- Connect phone to PC.
-- Copy SystemUI.apk and framework-res2.apk and rename framework-res2.apk to framework-res.apk.
--Move SystemUI.apk to system/app and set rw-r--r-- permissions. Move framework-res.apk to system/framework and set rw-r--r-- permissions.
-- Reboot and you're done.

Which Jellybean does this work on; 4.1 or 4.2, if there would be any difference in the procedure, it would be nice if you could make that known

[GUIDE][MOD] How to add background_holo_dark.png in 4.2 android

Recently I have searched in xda a lot on this topic... but unfortunately no proper guide i got... :silly::silly: so i thought to put a small guide about this for those who are searching this like me...
I don't know if i am putting this in right place... i request to the moderators if this topic doesn't suite in this area please move it to the right place...
In cm10 or aosp based roms (4.2 onwards)... there is no background_holo_dark.png in framework-res/drawable-nodpi folder which used to be the black background image of settings background....so till 4.1.. it was easy to replace the black/dark background by replacing the png file with any of your choice using 7zip file manager.... :good::good::good:
but from 4.2 google has changed it's policy about this... so it is no longer changing the png because this black/dark background color is hard coded as gradient color in framework-res/drawable/background_holo_dark.xml. ..
To change this and revert back to the image format.... you need to edit the abovementioned xml file....
steps::
1) Use apktool to decompile ur framework-res.apk
2) Go to framework-res/drawable/
3) Open background_holo_dark.xml using notepad++
you can see these lines as quoted below::
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<gradient android:startColor="#ff000000" android:endColor="#ff272d33" android:angle="270.0" />
</shape>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
4) Delete all the red Lines and replace with blue lines as shown here::
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent"
android: orientation="vertical" android:background="@drawable/background_holo_dark">
</LinearLayout>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
5) save the file
6) Now create any png file which you want to put as background... remember to keep the size of the png according to your screen display resolution (for an example.. my device's screen resolution is 540x960[qhd] ... so i created that png keeping image size 540x960) and rename it to background_holo_dark.png and put it in framework-res/hdpi or framework-res/xhdpi or framework-res/xxhdpi depending on your phone..
7) recompile your framework-res.apk
8) Done!!
Now you can copy the new framework-res.apk to /system/framework using any root file manager and set the proper permission... or else you can push this framework-res.apk to /system/framework using adb and set chmod 777... and reboot your phone... you are done.....!!!! :laugh::laugh:

I found if you
1. pull framework-res.apk
2. using 7-zip, delete background_holo_dark.xml
3. place background_holo_dark.png in the nodpi folder
4. push it back and change permissions to 644
it will work.. no need to decompile and mess with xml files

With 4.2 you can simply delete the background_holo_dark.xml file and put your background_holo_dark.png file into /drawable-nodpi
With 4.3 this wont work

Here's the process:
1. Decompile the Framework-res.apk
2. Copy the image you want to use as background named as background_holo_dark.png to res/drawable-nodpi/
3. Open the file: res/values/styles.xml
4. Find the line:
Code:
<item name="windowBackground">@drawable/screen_background_selector_dark</item>
5. Here replace the text "screen_background_selector_dark" with "background_holo_dark"
6. All done now recompile and push.

(HOW TO) Change All Of Status Bar Icons On Lollipop (Battery, Signal, Etc).

Hello, this is my first thread
As you guys know, all of status bar icons in lollipop was hidden by google. There's no .png image in drawable folder for battery icon, signal, etc. That means, we're not able to change it with another image. But finally, i'm sucessfully change it. Now, we can say good bye to that annoying battery icon (yes, this tutorial is for kitkat too). Lets move to the tutorial.
Sorry for my bad english.
WHAT YOU NEED:
1). Brain
2). Patient
3).Apktool
4). Systemui.apk
5). Some .png images.
1). HOW TO CHANGE THAT ANNOYING BATTERY IMAGE?
Go to THIS thread. This guy will help you. All credit goes to him.
2). HOW TO CHANGE ANOTHER IMAGE ON YOUR STATUS BAR:
-). Decompile your Systemui.apk
-). Go to res/drawable.
-) In this folder, you will see the xml files for any icons on your status bar.
-). Delete those xml file. For example, if you wanna change the signal icon, just delete that stat_sys_signal_0, stat_sys_signal_0_fully, bla bla bla. Remember that xml file name before you delete it (Important!?).
-). Put that .png images for replacing xml files that you was deleted before on any drawable folder that fits your resolution (mine is drawable-hdpi). Ex: if you delete that stat_sys_signal_0 on your drawable folder, then you have to put that stat_sys_signal_0.png to replace it.
-). After you finish replacing all xml files with .png images, recompile it.
-). Don't forget to sign it and push into your system.
-). Done!

it should look like this in your public.xml The bold part in this should be added where I added.

Hello, this is my first thread
As you guys know, all of status bar icons in lollipop was hidden by google. There's no .png image in drawable folder for battery icon, signal, etc. That means, we're not able to change it with another image. But finally, i'm sucessfully change it. Now, we can say good bye to that annoying battery icon (yes, this tutorial is for kitkat too). Lets move to the tutorial.
Sorry for my bad english.
WHAT YOU NEED:
1). Brain
2). Patient
3).Apktool
4). Systemui.apk
5). Some .png images.
1). HOW TO CHANGE THAT ANNOYING BATTERY IMAGE?
Go to THIS thread. This guy will help you. All credit goes to him.
2). HOW TO CHANGE ANOTHER IMAGE ON YOUR STATUS BAR:
-). Decompile your Systemui.apk
-). Go to res/drawable.
-) In this folder, you will see the xml files for any icons on your status bar.
-). Delete those xml file. For example, if you wanna change the signal icon, just delete that stat_sys_signal_0, stat_sys_signal_0_fully, bla bla bla. Remember that xml file name before you delete it (Important!?).
-). Put that .png images for replacing xml files that you was deleted before on any drawable folder that fits your resolution (mine is drawable-hdpi). Ex: if you delete that stat_sys_signal_0 on your drawable folder, then you have to put that stat_sys_signal_0.png to replace it.
-). After you finish replacing all xml files with .png images, recompile it.
-). Don't forget to sign it and push into your system.
-). Done!
Here's my result on my device running cm12 for taoshan:

[Guide][Add own action bar, background, etc in any app]

Hi Guys, This is a guide to add own theme action bar, background, list separators, etc) in any system/user apps like settings, contacts, mms , etc. Which doesn't have own theme , they are controlled by framework-res.apk
I have used it in Kitkat and Jellybean, not sure about other versions :silly:
Let's start
Requirements -
Apktool
Text editor
Patience
ADD OWN ACTION BAR
1. Decompile the app in which you wanna add your action bar. I'll take settings.apk
2. Open androidmanifest.xml
Search for <application
And scroll down, u'll find android:theme
In my Androidmanifest it is "android:theme="@style/Theme.Settings" it is different in all apps. Copy the theme that is Theme.Settings in my app.
3. Now open styles.xml and search whatever you copied. In my case it is "Theme.Settings"
4. Now add the following Red color highlighted lines.
Code:
<style name="Theme.Settings" parent="@android:style/Theme.Holo">
[COLOR="Red"]<item name="android:actionBarStyle">@style/Widget.Holo.Light.ActionBar.Solid.Inverse</item>[/COLOR]
5. Add the following codes below before </resources>
Code:
<style name="Widget.Holo.Light.ActionBar.Solid.Inverse" parent="@android:style/Widget.DeviceDefault.Light.ActionBar.Solid.Inverse">
<item name="android:background">@drawable/ab_solid_dark_holo</item>
<item name="android:displayOptions">showTitle</item>
<item name="android:titleTextStyle">@style/TextAppearance.Holo.Widget.ActionBar.Title.Inverse</item>
<item name="android:backgroundSplit">@drawable/ab_bottom_solid_dark_holo</item>
</style>
<style name="TextAppearance.Holo.Widget.ActionBar.Title.Inverse" parent="@android:style/TextAppearance.Holo.Widget.ActionBar.Title.Inverse">
<item name="android:icon">@android:color/transparent</item>
<item name="android:textSize">17.0dip</item>
<item name="android:textStyle">bold</item>
<item name="android:textColor">#ffffffff</item>
</style>
6. Now copy ur desired pngs in drawable-hdpi and change their their name to ab_solid_dark_holo and ab_bottom_solid_dark_holo
- ab_solid_dark_holo is for action bar and ab_bottom_solid_dark_holo for bottom action bar.
- <item name="android:icon">@android:color/transparent</item> is for making ur apps's icon transparent, if you wanna make it visible then don't add this line..
7. If u don't wanna add pngs and copy following red color highlighed codes to drawables.xml , u'll get it in values folder.
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
[COLOR="Red"]<item type="drawable" name="ab_solid_dark_holo">#00000000</item>
<item type="drawable" name="ab_bottom_solid_dark_holo">#00000000</item>[/COLOR]
</resources>
- If u don't have drawables.xml then create it in values folder and copy all lines... :good:
I'll add more when I will get time..
