decompile [7zip] framework-res.apk..go to res\values\ ...
in values creat an txt file name it bools.txt open with text editor and add
Code:
<bool name="cm_default_is_tablet">true</bool>
<bool name="cm_default_has_soft_buttons">true</bool>
save and rename bools.txt to bools.xml now
add PNG on drawable-mdpi and resize it [ PNG soft button pic it from ics or web ]
rezip your framwork-res.apk [ winrar right clic save zip rename it change zip by .apk

if you dont have soft button add him on drawable-mdpi and resize it and add it to drawable-ldpi that all
PS : if you dont find values folder in your framwork-res.apk just creat new folder name it values and creat bools.xml in values folder

is this work for custom rom based on stock?
can you make it works?

tested on cm7 work now test it on stock rom and feed

To what size do we resize the soft buttons pictures?
And am guessing this would work on any device running cm7/cm9 right?

where can I download the softbuttons png?

Using a zip software [7zip etc..] != decompiling.
if u dont see the values folder it's because u've not decompiled/decoded the apk but just extracted it.
need to use apktool.

what if our rom (cm9) already has a bools.xml in res/values?

bools.xml and value already existe in cm7 but with 7zip is nor find it but if you decompile with apk decompiler you find it

So what, do i delete it and create a new bools.xml?
Or do i just add the lines you mention in the bools.xml that's already there?
Fyi, i decompiles framework-res.apk with APKTool.

You find the folder values inside the folder res.
Make sure you decompile the apk.

[SOLVED] Can't decompile SecSettings.apk

Hey buddys, I found a [HOW TO] for Multi-window port.. I'm going to give a try
Now, my problem is that the environment is setted up, I think, correctly but I can't decompile "SecSettings.apk"
Every time I try with "APK Multi Tool" "Apktool" "Apk Manager" I have errors like this:
This is my ADB Variable:
And my PATH is this:
%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_11\bin;C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin;C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk;C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools;C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\tools
The PATH is correct because there are JDK and JRE installed, same for SDK..
How can I fix this? Thanks in advance people!!

Re: [Q] [HELP] Can't decompile SecSettings.apk

You didn't sign file. Copy Meta-INF from original to the new one. Open files with WINRAR for that.

Still bootlops..
Leave this thread like SOLVED and when you can gimme a hand, if you want of course

Try to put resurces.arsc from compiled to original file. With WINRAR, and set compression to lowest - storage it is I think. And then try it.

How to reduce the font in the lockscreen clock???

Hello everyone, I was wondering how shrink the character clock and date on the lock screen ... Can someone explain what to change?
I have the original version 2.3.6 Gingerbread.
I'll post a picture. I edited with Paint to understand the idea.
Who can help me?

Is there anyone could answer at my question?

Simple answer, I think no one knows on our forum. See if someone did it with some more popular phone. Like S2, S3... If it is done there, it should be possible for our phone. It need some modding, change in some xml if it is even possible.
I think you should find xml for lockscreen in framework-res.apk, and see if there is possibility for font size change. And after that there is question is there way to put it in place where you put it in picture.

So should I do a search in the sections dedicated to Galaxy SII and Galaxy SIII?

You should search all over xda, for GB TouchWiz modification of that lockscreen. And if you find it, you can't use that, our framework need to be moded like that.

it should be in /system/framework/framework-res.apk; unzip it, go into drawable-hdpi, edit files "zzz_unlock_clock_[number].png" to suit your taste, push it into zip, rename to .apk, push to system, change permissions to 644 and reboot

How do unzip a file .apk?

(On your PC) Just use WinZip or 7zip to open the APK file.... Go to your destination folder.. Drag and drop it on where ever you want... Open it.. Make the changes... And put the folder back in... Therefore replacing the original one..
Note that this can be done only for replacing normal PNG or JPEG files.. For editing anything else you will have to decompile the apk and do it

Thanks for the answer but now it appears so

Please use a Transparent PNG file and the white background should disappear
I think you just resized the original PNG file using something like MS Paint.... Just use Microsoft Office Picture Manager or anything similar for this...
Or use the software tool Fast Stone Image Resizer (sorry I forgot the exact name) for Windows.... Its pretty simple to use..
Its better if you still have the original backup of the original framework-res.apk... Because you can't use your new PNG files as you might need Photoshop or any advanced photo editing software to remove that white background.....

I just resized the original file ... She says that instead of resize with "Paint" I have to do with other software specific to that type of change?

Photoshop, Gimp... Save it in transparent png.

As I told you before; to only resize your PNG files use Fast stone Image resizer... (google it!!) And for any advanced image editing use GIMP or Pinta (if you find GIMP hard to use)

Will it work on any ICS?
Will this mod work on any ICS ROM Like This ROM? Also where exactly in the system folder we have to put this file in I guess its should go inside /system/framework. Correct me if I'm wrong

I think it wont work for the rom which you specified..[i am not sure]..
yea directly if you paste it in framework folder...previous framework of rom will be replaced which makes phone not to boot[reason:as permissions are not set correctly]..
so first paste it in System folder,change permissions and then move apk to framework folder.. reboot enjoy..
Press Thanks if i helped you..

It'll work..but it'll contain tw files in it...it is a bad idea to paste directly....create a flashable package, nd flash it via recovery. naresh why don't you create flashable zip for it? Btw i am using 18dip...it is good too.
