[Q] Adding Libs to roms..

As the title says - Adding libs to roms, can someone point me in the right direction? I have been a member of this forum for a while, just not a posting member, I now feel it is my time to add something back to the community, is it as simple as adding it to the rom whilst flashed to an X8? Please help me, maybe I can bring something back to the community..

maybe developpers little bit bz rite now..
what i can advice you is..
just flash the room and then use 'root explorer' to play with lib
make sure your phone rooted
peace!

Thank you, I will try that, I am wishing to work on a ROM and get wifi, 3G and such working, however I have tried using ADB to push the libs but I don't know if it worked or not..

I want to make the whole sense rom work, BUT I can't access the system files without having the rom installed which is pretty gay.. I need some way of accessing it in the .img format which then I can flash to my phone to test... mshhh... plus I'm not quite sure which libs will work (ofcourse when I find out I will seek permissions before uploading the rom...)

To open .img you could use Winimage or Poweriso or something similar.

Already tried, same problem... I found an unyaffs2 program compiled for windows which allowed me to extract the image I just need to mkyaffs2 it back to img then maybe I can get it working BUT I need to be in Linux and I can't be bothered making a VM at the moment...
Maybe someone can help me with this? We could work together to make a fully working sense rom... come on people.. someone who wants this must have a bit of knowledge on the subject...

Well AFAIK you need to decompile the framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk and change a lot of things in there. Have a look in my noob how to, there are links to short guides of how to by huexxx and gabwerkz.
You can also find a lot about theming when you use the search up there. It's pretty much the same for every device, although filenames and paths might differ

[Q] Problem with SGA GT-S5830

Hi,
I don't know if this is the place to posting this but, anyway, i have to post it, if it's wrong please excuse me.
I have a SGA i'm root user and i've been flasing roms in my device for some time with CMW5. In this time I should made some mistake or smth...
I have an issue with the left touch-button on the screen, this button seems disabled... But when i was using StockLite v8 i discovered this button still works, this rom has the option to create a virtual button on state bar, when i touch this virtual botton it sounds two ticks, like it was executing both buttons, also this options table that appear when you tick in the button appears on its will. Anyway usb mass storage also don't work. This issue is fixed with terminal emulator tiping some lines. But left button's issue... I would appreciate any kind of help.
Thanks and sorry for my poor english.

Reflash with Odin
Try reflashing original stock rom with Odin and comment.

Well, I think thats a rom problem.
Try to post in your rom thread, maybe you'll get better help

Thanks for your help... but that's not working... This morning the button has been working for a while, and when i open whatsapp it's kind of disturbing 'cause it's doing what it wants while i'm using keyboard for tiping something.... I've tried tipping some codes in dialer for calibrate touchscreen but that's not working neither...
Thanks for your help again.

hello viper, I know that you know more then me in android, and your help is always appreciated, unfortunately instead of helping, prefer kidding me. If you have a better solution would be good that you give it to help this friend. Actually I said I didnt knew this rom.
Notice that "screen filter" has a function "enable soft-key backlightt" that could help. If dont nothing more than uninstall it.
At least I tried to help, and you?
I'm sure there is still time to help him, what do you choose to do?

this is purely a rom problem, some roms dont allow for touch keys to be activated, or in your case, only allow 1 to be activated. UMS isnt supported on every rom, but u can flash a thing for it, search xda for a UMS thing, there is one, and i have used it before

I'm glad what I said first was true, was a rom issue.:laugh:
btw, although it was a mistake, as viper said, the soft-key function of the app I spoke about, doesnt work in ACE [but the app is interesting (I didnt knew it) when you have the screen brightness to the street and enters a house, you can instantly download the brightness, and turn it back when you leave. I'm gonna try it better)

i dont know what you are talking about, if its the thing where when u enter dark areas the screen brightness goes down, and in bright areas, brightness goes up, then u need a light sensor on ur phone, which the ace does not have

You' re rigth ace hasnt light sensor.that's why this app seems OK, to do it manually

... I wasn't kidding you, I used this app for a while long time ago :S I don't know about the current version/ caracteristics but well...
Let's help our friend! xDDDDDDDDDD
Viper The Ripper's Method of help ...
1. Install Terminal Emulator (google playstore)
2. Type this code in Ternimal;
Code:
su
echo 1 > /sys/class/leds/button-backlight/brightness
chmod 444 /sys/class/leds/button-backlight/brightness
If your touch buttons stay on, then your buttons work well xD

Great, Viber
I'm sure he'll be pleased
And I'm always learning something new
Thks :highfive:

Questions about theming

Hopefully some great themers here can help me in the right direction.
I've already spent some times reading about how to decompile, compile etc.
the one i tried is TMA (tickle my android), first i got several problems because he wouldn't decompile framework-res. I've found out that you need to install the semc....-res file before you can decompile framework-res and the other way the same.
so that's working great now, and it also recompiles and i can make a flashable zip but i keeps getting in bootloop.
i've found out that there's something special about sony's framework-res and these problems can happen but i can't seem to find the right way for the Xperia T to solve this problem.
could someone tell me how or direct me to guides that are suitable for the Xperia T?
I've tried theming several times and i always get stuck somewhere the process but i really want to learn!
thanks in advance for all the help..

If i was being funny, i would have told you to use the search function at the top of the page.
When your navigating through your phone it can be quite difficult to search, find and post links for people. Id rather just post a whole load of links in one go as it's quicker and easier.
I didnt have to respond to you, im busy repairing fridges and took a quick break, maybe i shouldnt have bothered. Or maybe i just wont respond anymore and keep what i know to myself.

no, no, i'm sorry.. i thought you just wanted to link me to google for asking a "stupid" question.
my bad, please forgive me!
i really appreciate your help.

You need to do this first -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=41373722&postcount=2
After that you can do anything you want in your framework, wether theming or modding.
Edit: hehehe I guess dully nailed it already LoL, my given link is the same actually
Tapatalked from my bricked TX

thank you both, i took me some time and errors but i've finally got it working.
first i tried with stock framework to learn the decompiling/compiling signing process and it worked.
now i'm trying e few mods, my first one doesn't work (50% transparent statusbar), i did this mod thru TMA (which has this mod as option).
maybe google it and make the mod myself..
hmm second one doesn't work either, i looked thru google on how to remove the statusbar clock. it all went well(recompiling and flashing) but the clock is still there..

Need P7's stock lolipop apps

Guys I need lock phone apk icon
can someone up ?
thnx

There is no lock phone.apk in B805.. Where should it be located?!

In stock folder ..
When I updated P7 to unofficial lollipop it was there but I reverted quite while ago due to issues..but missing that feature u just tap it and phone is locked..cool

I assume it is not an app itself. Try to create a shortcut with e.g. quickshortcutmaker. It may take a while until you find it, but I believe it is possible.

No it's not there..

So, I looked it up for you. Under Lollipop it's located at 'screen lock' (I don't know how it is called in English). The point on the Top ('Display Sperre') is it.

but man i have mate7 and i said i need someone to extract it and pot it .. i am using 4.4.2 android..
so exctract the apk up it here if u can

In the last post you wrote that you have a P7?! You did not wrote anything about porting or extracting. First you wanted just the icon, then the shortcut and now.. Wtf!
Just describe a little more detailed what you want at the beginning and be more friendly. Sorry, but I really don't want to help you this way. I assume, you did not even look after what I described in the last post.
