The search button on tapatalk leads doesnt leads me to what im searching for. Maybe i should search later when im home. Thanks btw.

Yeah, it is kinda ****y. But I've seen this kinda threads. You should be able to find those easily. I'm from phone too.

If you want to change things like phone name or manuafacturer go to Build.prop in system, open as text editor and edit. Press thanks if I gave you new info even though I didn't answer your Q

G1 Green pick up/answer button not working, any other alternatives

Hey I need help....my G1 phone got completely wet and slowly everything came back, however my green phone/pick up/answer button is not working, so I am unable to pick up any phone calls.....I let the phone dry overnight, even removed the battery, sd card and put it in front of a fan for a couple hours...I have been trying to look for an alternate button to pick up a phone call but I'm having no luck....Does anyone have an idea of what I can do?? Any app that can change a setting or any hack, yes my phone is rooted...I would greatly appreciate if anyone can help...thanks again
Look at the phone/contact apk mods with the answer button in the dev section.
Yes there is a modified phone apk that has a answer button in the screen..
Flash an eclair ROM, and you can answer via swiping the screen.

Then do not try one, as you will not go back.
Flash an eclair rom?
So did you drop it in the toilet or what? I am running the latest Super D ROM and it also has an answer button on screen... Haven't been back to Cyano since... ROM loyalty is great, I am all for it... but don't be afraid of trying something new...

Custom Theme Components

Long time lurker, first time poster... I have been learning a lot really fast about customizing different aspects of the eris, but what I have been really searching hard for is a way to customize certain components to add to an already great rom. Right now I am running Eris_Official_0.8.1T2 btw. Anyways what I am really looking for is something like this forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=654852 Mostly the Launcher is what I really want to change but to be able to tweak everything else would be great too. If someone knows how to do this or can point me in the right direction to maybe even learn how myself I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks
unzip the rom files
system/framework/com.htc.resources
once in there go to
res/drawable-port-mdpi
the file named common_app_rosie_navbar.png
is the launcher, and thats the main thing u need to edit.
and also go to
system/apps/rosie.apk
one inside the apk go to
res/drawable-normal-mdpi
and
drawable-normal-port-mdpi
edit those to your liking
Wow I feel dumb now lol... Ive been poking around in com.htc.resources for a couple days now and completely overlooked that... Thanks alot... Only question I have now is how do I remove the word phone that overlayed on the launcher? I would post a screenshot of my home screen but since im a new user its not allowing me.
Thanks for the help
well I uploaded a photo to my album so if you feel like checking it out just go to my profile... Im starting to like the phone (icon and word) over the orb but if anyone knows how to remove the word for future reference please let me know... I am also trying to find out how to change the status bar's clock color, which searching around has brought me to editing the services.jar or services.odex file but Im still uncertain on how to do this. Any input would be great.
Im going to sound like an idiot, but i can't open the apk to edit, im missing something.. help?
Right click and open with winrar or 7zip. Once you have edited the images you will have to resign either the .apk or the rom. Depending on if you are editing the whole rom or not. Hope I was able to help

[Q] Advanced Facebook Editing

Well best bet man look for others on here who have moded facebook theres about 5 or 6 people that I'm aware of that are big on modding the facebook.apk and there is a huge thread about it they update all the time so... Get in touch with one of them and maybe they can help you around your specific problem... Ask them how they got it to work best bet send them a pm...preferably someone on alot.
Wished someone would come up with a quik fix. Sometimes the old eyes have a hard time reading with the white background..

Phone.apk

I wanted to make someting nicer than Galaxy Tab's original phone, so I'm
working on both "Phone.apk" and "Contacts.apk".
There are some problems that I hope someone could help.
As you can see in the pic 02, "Logs" page's font are white and when I press
one of them they become orange, so far there is no problem, but when I press
the other one the last one become black, I don't know why.
In the "Contacts" Page, pic 03, fonts are still black and I don't know what value
should I change anymore , because I tried evrything.
Does anyone can help to make this complete?
The white look real clean man! Nice work so far.
Wish I can help you with the compile part, but I'm not that smart

Nice work! First off. The colors for text aren't always only in the xml's.. you'll want to search the smali files as well.
Ill have a look tomorrow if I get a chance.

If it's one of the smali files, I don't know how to edit them.
It would be great if you could have a look.
Thanks mate.

Theres an app called Themes for that. you just navigate and download the theme then click apply, no rocket science.
I don't have that app, well, you better get it googlin' around or reflash MIUI...
This question can be solved searching the forum (yellow magnif glass, top right corner, you see it?)
Doing so you can save a some bytes in the xda servers, saving threes and all that stuff. I already killed some by answering you.
