[MOD/Source] Display "H" icon in status bar on Vibrant Froyo roms.

Hey everyone,
I guess this can be considered my "random act of kindness" for the year since I know that it will almost certainly be kanged over and over with out thanks/credit given.
Anyway I just figured out how to display the "H" icon in the status bar properly. And by that I mean, no renaming or duplicating drawable files in framework-res.apk, and the icon will show all data states now:
GSM, GPRS, Edge, 3G, HSDPA
I've only tested it for a few minutes myself, but thankfully the signal in my bedroom can be a bit flaky, so I've seen it bounce between 3G and H already, and I disabled 3g to make sure the "E" for edge still works fine too.
Anyway, decompile services.jar, and open /com/android/server/status/StatusBarPolicy.smali
Then search for ".method private final updateDataNetType(I)V" in and replace the entire method with this:
Code:
.method private final updateDataNetType(I)V
.registers 3
.parameter "net"

And if you haven't noticed by now, I HATE this samsung bs and would kill for an AOSP or CM rom, lol.
Cheers, =)
P.S., next up (hopefully) a user selectable setting to hide the AM/PM flag from the status bar clock.

Wow nicely done. Thank you so much!

I would LOVE you to find that am and pm removal! If this is any help, the 24 hour format doesn't use am/pm (obviously lol) but I wonder if there is any code on there to help you find out how to turn it off for the 12 hour format. No idea if thays right at all, just an idea I would do it myself but I don't know how to

It's unfortunate that's how it is S0niqu3, but definitely true.
Thanks for figuring this out and posting it here for everyone.

Is there a tutorial on how to decompile/recompile jar files? I want to learn how to do these edits.

for editing code like this, you need to download smali/baksmali jars. Then you'll need to pull out the classes.dex file out of said jar file (services.jar in this case, you can just open the apk with 7zip). I found this post to be a good reference for decompile/compile commands. Decompile. Do edits. Compile. Replace classes.dex in the jar file with the new one.
I can *try* and help you some more if you like... I'm no pro at this

Hey Eugene,
Thanks for the compliment =)
And yeah, I was a little bitter the night I released this, lol.
But yeah, I don't honestly much care about people "kanging" unless its my theme work, re-drawing graphics from scratch sucks, a lot, so credit is very much appreciated in that area. =)
Thanks for all the hard work you do, any chance you can send me some tips on replacing the touchwiz dialer and contacts? I know you managed that on 2.1 with your Hybrid rom's, and I'd love to have them back on froyo, and I don't mind doing the work myself.
Cheers, =)

Ok, I will drop on the ginger thread.

Awesome work as always s0niqu3 .. greatly appreciated. I've created a flashable of this MOD for KB1 ... I don't know if the same file work with other release or not. This will hopefully help somebody to get it installed easier.
- KB1 H-icon StatusBar MOD
- KB1 Original StatusBar

I put together two services.jar's, one includes the H hack and one includes the H hack + the AM/PM hack, for a genuinely Ginger feel. Enjoy!

LMAO! Oh trust me, I do understand aa bitter stand point..
But yeah I'll look into the Dailer / Contacts once I get my Dev machine back up and running & send ( DM ) you what I did in 2.1 but I've not tried 2.2 yet so Def. would like to help in anyway that I can..
P.S.
Regarding my Statement, I hope it wasn't taken out of context
as that's truly not how it was suppose to come across.

Will it work on KA6

I posted a fix for this as a patch on top of the Fascinate lockscreen mod last month here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10951625&postcount=44
For those who don't feel like doing all the legwork.

Hi,
Do you mean you added this to the lockscreen mod, or you found something wrong with the code?
If you simply added it to the mod, would you mind at least linking back to this thread for credit in your post?
And if you found a bug, would you please share the fix so I can update the OP here.
Cheers, =)

Absolutely.
I don't give a **** when people use the Home Haptic feedback that I figured out for Captivate, but when people start stealing my theme it pisses me off.

[Guide]Official MIUI Port Guide Translation

Hi guys,i translated the key part of this guide,untill now,this guide is not completed ,if it updated ,i'll update this thread too
and until now,our MIUI PORT TEAM have these guys:
me,gabwerkz,redy2006
N00BY0815 and SquaDrive after read this post and if you want to join in plz let me know anyone else wants to join in are welcomed
===========================================line
1.A Sample For Smali
imagane that there's a Hello worlk application,we install the apk and open it,we can see a blackscreen and at the first line written:Hello world!
ok,this is a simple app.now we decompile it.
===================
we get a folder,then find the HelloActivity.smali,there's its content:
Code:
.class public Lcom/example/android/helloactivity/HelloActivity;
.super Landroid/app/Activity;
.source "HelloActivity.java"
# direct methods
.method public constructor <init>()V
.locals 0
.prologue
.line 27
invoke-direct {p0}, Landroid/app/Activity;-><init>()V
return-void
.end method
# virtual methods
.method public onCreate(Landroid/os/Bundle;)V
.locals 2
.parameter "savedInstanceState"
.prologue
.line 33
invoke-super {p0, p1}, Landroid/app/Activity;->onCreate(Landroid/os/Bundle;)V
.line 37
const/high16 v1, 0x7f03
invoke-virtual {p0, v1},
Lcom/example/android/helloactivity/HelloActivity;->setContentView(I)V
.line 38
const/high16 v1, 0x7f05
invoke-virtual {p0, v1},
Lcom/example/android/helloactivity/HelloActivity;->findViewById(I)Landroid/view/View;
move-result-object v0
check-cast v0, Landroid/widget/TextView;
.line 39
.local v0, txtView:android/widget/TextView;
const/high16 v1, 0x7f04
invoke-virtual {v0, v1}, Landroid/widget/TextView;->setText(I)V
.line 40
return-void
.end method
"#" refers to notes.
begin with a dot named "annotations".
".line" means line number,it mainly used for debug.
.metho and .end method means a method's starting and endding.
more code plz goto http://pallergabor.uw.hu/androidblog/dalvik_opcodes.html
now we want to change the "Hello,world!" into "Happy,Craker!",what should we do?
in this smali
.lne 39 is
Code:
.local v0, txtView:android/widget/TextView;
const/high16 v1, 0x7f04
invoke-virtual {v0, v1}, Landroid/widget/TextView;->setText(I)V
and actually the source code is
Code:
txtView.setText(R.string.hello_activity_text_text)
here we can see it define a textview with R.string.hello_activity_text_text ,and i guess the string "Hello world!" is in it.
now we could not change the string,but we can replace it by change it directly
but how we do it in smali?
here we go
Code:
.line 39
.local v0, txtView:android/widget/TextView;
const-string v1, "Happy, Cracker!"
invoke-virtual {v0, v1}, Landroid/widget/TextView;->setText(Ljava/lang/CharSequence;)V
ps.i can't explane it more clearly,but we can see we replace the id with our string.
==========================
2.Porting MIUI Framework
Before starting i should tell us :all porting is based on deodexed files.and there's a stock android rom and miui rom to show you a example to understand how we make the porting work.
the main idea is change the smali code to port it.cause we can't get the souce code of miui,and by this way we can port it to our phone too.
the three files we should touch is :framework.jar ,android.policy.jar andservices.jar.they are the "core" of android system
there's an attach file download and open it we can see:
porting-miui/
|-----------------android
|------------framework.jar
|------------services.jar
|------------android.policy.jar
|------------------miui
|----------framework.jar
|----------services.jar
|----------android.policy.jar
|-----------framework-res/
|-----------framework-miui-res.apk
the android folder is from stock android ,miui folder is miui's files,and we need your phone's files here too.and in this guide we assume your phone is I9100.now we should decompile all of them and compare,to "patch" miui things to your phone.
that means ,we need to compare stock files with our files,compare stock files with miui files
i.porting resources
decompile framework-res.apk,all the resources in miui we need porting to our rom,so copy them to your compiled framework-res folder and then recompile it.
framework-miui-res.apk is a resouces package,all the miui apps need it.in our rom we can find RES_cappuccino.apk,RES_sui.apk and RES_model.apk.
usually miui's resource's id is started with 0x03,and the stock rom has two resouce package,framework-res.apk is started with 0x01 and another is started with 0x02.so if your phone has more than two package,you need contact with us.in the future we'll considering make the resouce's id started with 0x06 in miui.
ii.after we finish the decompile we can use the script rmline.sh to delete all the lines started with .line to make us more easier to compare the difference with two smali code.but backup the original decomplied files first plz.we can debug from it.
then,if you based on linux,you'd try meld to compare,if you are on windows,use beyoun compare
between stock and miui,we can see there's a lot of new classes which started with Miui,and a new miui folder,just copy those new files and folders to our stock folders(with .line)
in the attach file,there's a change-list file,which list what miui did change.maybe it's a little different with what we compared by ourselves,but it's nop (dummy instruction),it caused by apktool,so we don't need to care it,just compare listed files.
there are 3 solutions
1.ex. ActivityThread.smali,miui changed the method "getTopLevelResources",but i9100's and stock is the same,this is the easiest situation and we can replace the miui code into our files happily
2.also in ActivityThread.smali,miui changed the another method "applyConfigurationToResourcesLocked",and after comparation,we can see miui changed this method,so i9100 does.then what should we do?let's see the miui's code first
Code:
.method final applyConfigurationToResourcesLocked(Landroid/content/res/Configuration;)Z
invoke-virtual {v5, p1}, Landroid/content/res/Configuration;->updateFrom(Landroid/content/res/Configuration;)I
move-result v0
.local v0, changes:I
invoke-static {v0}, Landroid/app/MiuiThemeHelper;->handleExtraConfigurationChanges(I)V
invoke-virtual {p0, v7}, Landroid/app/ActivityThread;->getDisplayMetricsLocked(Z)Landroid/util/DisplayMetrics;
move-result-object v1
.local v1, dm:Landroid/util/DisplayMetrics;
at line 5 is what miui changed.before that,we should know some rule about smali
all the local variable is started with "v"
.locals 8 means this method use 8 local variables.
all the parameters are started by "p".and local variable and parameters started from 0.for all the nonstatic method,p0 means itself,i.e "this" pointer.
here we can see miui added a new static method,the code like this we call it linear code.it as one entry and one exit.and in compiler it called basic block.
so we just need to copy this block and paste into 9100's files at the same position,and we done.
3.for example,in Resources.smali,miui changed the "loadDrawable" method.here's the code
Code:
.method loadDrawable(Landroid/util/TypedValue;I)Landroid/graphics/drawable/Drawable;
.end local v8 #e:Ljava/lang/Exception;
.end local v13 #rnf:Landroid/content/res/Resources$NotFoundException;
:cond_6
invoke-virtual/range {p0 .. p2},
Landroid/content/res/Resources;->loadOverlayDrawable(Landroid/util/TypedValue;I)Landroid/graphics/drawable/Drawable;
move-result-object v6
if-nez v6, :cond_1
:try_start_1
move-object/from16 v0, p0
from line 6 to line 9 is what miui added.then we compare 9100 and stock android,we can find it's totally different.then how should we do now?
the key is find the added code's entry and exit.
at line 4 we see a ":cond_6",it says there should be a goto command to this :cond_6.so we got to find where used the :cond_6 and we finally got this:
Code:
const-string v15, ".xml"
invoke-virtual {v9, v15}, Ljava/lang/String;->endsWith(Ljava/lang/String;)Z
move-result v15
if-eqz v15, :cond_6
read this code block carefully,and seems it is check if the string "v9" is ending with ".xml",if not,goto :cond_6 .ok ,let's go to see 9100's framework.
so we search ".xml" in the loadDrable method.find this:
Code:
const-string v17, ".xml"
move-object v0, v10
move-object/from16 v1, v17
invoke-virtual {v0, v1}, Ljava/lang/String;->endsWith(Ljava/lang/String;)Z
move-result v17
if-eqz v17, :cond_b
the logic is same as which in miui hmm?so goto :cond_b ,what we can see is totally same as miui's :cond_6 right? so we are sure this is where miui changed
look at the exit,miui has two exit point
one is if-nez v6, :cond_1 ,if so,goto :cond_1,if not,go on.so let's see what the :cond_1 did
here's cond_1's code
Code:
:cond_1
:goto_1
if-eqz v6, :cond_2
move-object/from16 v0, p1
iget v0, v0, Landroid/util/TypedValue;->changingConfigurations:I
and in 9100's file we can find this
Code:
:cond_1
:goto_1
if-eqz v7, :cond_2
move-object/from16 v0, p1
iget v0, v0, Landroid/util/TypedValue;->changingConfigurations:I
this time it check the v7's value,so we should add this into 9100
Code:
invoke-virtual/range {p0 .. p2},
Landroid/content/res/Resources;->loadOverlayDrawable(Landroid/util/TypedValue;I)Landroid/graphics/drawable/Drawable;
move-result-object v7
if-nez v7, :cond_1
a little dizzy hmm?take a break time and go back
iii.and the last we'll talk about inner class.
every inner class have a separete smali file.
e. ActivityThread$1.smali
if it is a Anonymous class,the name should be "outer class+$+number",else it should be "outer class+$+inner class"as its name.
if a inner class use outer class's privte method,the compiler will auto fill a static function like this:
Code:
public class Hello {
public class A {
void func() {
setup();
}
}
private void setup() {
}
we use the outer class's setup method in inner class A's "func" method.and we'll get the smali code:
part of Hello$A.smali
Code:
# virtual methods
.method func()V
.locals 1
.prologue
.line 5
iget-object v0, p0, LHello$A;->this$0:LHello;
#calls: LHello;->setup()V
invoke-static {v0}, LHello;->access$000(LHello;)V
.line 6
return-void
.end method
part of Hello.smali
Code:
.method static synthetic access$000(LHello;)V
.locals 0
.parameter
.prologue
.line 1
invoke-direct {p0}, LHello;->setup()V
return-void
.end method
we can see the compiler auto made a access$000 method,if we use a outer class's private method in a more complicate inner class,it'll made a new method,but every class may have various new class name,it changes a lot .compare it carefully,find the private method and find a name that you ever seened.
iiii.Finally there are some advices:
1.careful,find where to add miui's code
2.notice the local variable number
3.step by step,if you done a part of port,recompile it to see if it work
4.find a problem is not neccessary,use adb logcat and find what caused the problem.
5.more practice and you'll handle the smali code

Nice... and I'm just waiting here for your progress... LOL

Man, you got moves like jagger.

Is there some progress?
Sent from my LG-P970 using XDA App

I would like to help, but I have too work now...
Good luck!

I think Huexxx should start porting MIUI to ours blacks xd His rom is good at this moment so he can make some break and create MIUI

doooh !
I really would offer my help but the only dev related thing I know is scripting with nsis. I don't know coding even if I'm pretty sure scripting and coding have similar principles. I don't even know what deodexing / zipaligning mean
As I learned everything by myself I know that all guides can't do 100% of the job. Learning is the key.
So I'm not sure if I can contribute but it will be a pleasure to join to your work.

Any news guys ?

@ XDA Forum - Can't Say anything, As Its my school and being a student I will never like to hear anything wrong related to it.
@ To All Other Dev Who Made It possible or If I am including anything from yours so please PM to mention your name in Credits. Please....
Now Let's Star With this Guide :-
-: Transparent Status bar & Notification Full Down:-
​
The Most Common thing to get first but then also a difficult thing to figure it out.
Decompile your SystemUI.apk and go to SystemUI/res/values--
So the First thing is Changing the "Drawables.xml" -
Find this
Code:
<item type="drawable" name="status_bar_background">#[COLOR=Red]3f000000[/COLOR]</item>
Change this RED Values with anything that you want to as accordingly with the HEX Color values.
Wait we are not done with that.
Now Copy these lines at the end of drawable before this line "</resources>"
Code:
<item type="drawable" name="notification_header_bg">#[COLOR=Red]88000000[/COLOR]</item>
<item type="drawable" name="notification_panel_bg">#[COLOR=Red]88000000[/COLOR]</item>
<item type="drawable" name="status_bar_bg_tile">#[COLOR=Red]00000000[/COLOR]</item>
Again Same Change RED values with what your need is.
Now Open "Colors.xml"
and change this line -
Code:
<color name="notification_panel_solid_background">#[COLOR=Red]3f000000[/COLOR]</color>
The Transparency Values are like :-
Code:
#00000000 - black with 100% transparency
#3F000000 - black with 75% transparency
#7F000000 - black with 50% transparency
#BF000000 - black with 25% transparency
Now You need to find some ".9.png" and delete it.
So Go to - SystemUI/res/drwable-hdpi (as per the resolution of your devices).
Notification_panel_bg.9.png
Status_bar_bg_tile.9.png
Notification_header_bg.9.png
Delete this image where ever you find it in your SystemUI.apk
"Notification_panel_bg.9.png"
Deleting this will give you your notification panel transparency.
Now Lets Move To Editing Smali. So now go to SystemUI/smali/com/android/systemui/statusbar/phone/
And Open "PhoneStatusBar$FastColorDrawable.smali"
Find this
Code:
.parameter "canvas"
And in that method change this line
Code:
iget v0, p0, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/phone/PhoneStatusBar$FastColorDrawable;->mColor:I
To This
Code:
const v0, 0x[COLOR=Red]00000000[/COLOR]
. Again change RED to the transparency level to suit your need.
Now Decompile your "android.policy.jar"
And go to android.poliy.jar.out/smali/com/android/internal/policy/impl/---
Open "PhoneWindowManager.smali"
There do like mentioned below.
Delete RED Lines
Code:
.line 2627 ------*******
iget v0, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/PhoneWindowManager;->mSystemBottom:I
iput v0, p1, Landroid/graphics/Rect;->bottom:I ------ Find This line.
[COLOR=Red]
.line 3061
iget-object v0, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/PhoneWindowManager;->mStatusBar:Landroid/view/WindowManagerPolicy$WindowState;
if-eqz v0, :cond_1b
iget-object v0, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/PhoneWindowManager;->mStatusBar:Landroid/view/WindowManagerPolicy$WindowState;
invoke-interface {v0}, Landroid/view/WindowManagerPolicy$WindowState;->getSurfaceLayer()I
move-result v0
.line 3063
:goto_1a
return v0
.line 3062
:cond_1b
iget-object v0, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/PhoneWindowManager;->mNavigationBar:Landroid/view/WindowManagerPolicy$WindowState;
if-eqz v0, :cond_26
iget-object v0, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/PhoneWindowManager;->mNavigationBar:Landroid/view/WindowManagerPolicy$WindowState;
invoke-interface {v0}, Landroid/view/WindowManagerPolicy$WindowState;->getSurfaceLayer()I
move-result v0
goto :goto_1a
[/COLOR]
.line 3063 ------- *****This line number can be different in yours .
:cond_26
const/4 v0, 0x0
[COLOR=Blue]goto :goto_1a[/COLOR] -------- Change this to "[COLOR=Blue]return v0[/COLOR]"
.end method
Make Sure that the line marked with "******" will have a difference of 3.
So After Doing this it will look like this
Code:
.line 2627
iget v0, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/PhoneWindowManager;->mSystemBottom:I
iput v0, p1, Landroid/graphics/Rect;->bottom:I
.line 2630
:cond_1
const/4 v0, 0x0
return v0
.end method
Now Recompile your SystemUI.apk & android.policy.jar and flash it.
4-Way Reboot Menu - Thanks to majdinj sir​
Decompile Your "android.policy.jar"
Go To android.poliy.jar.out/smali/com/android/internal/policy/impl/
Open GlobalActions$3.smali and find this-***
Code:
invoke-interface {v0, v1}, Landroid/view/WindowManagerPolicy$WindowManagerFuncs;->reboot(Z)V
If its there then proceed and if not then find above line in all files with name "GlobalActions$#.smali" where "#" will be number.
Ok you find that so lets proceed.
Now in the same folder open "GlobalActions.smali"
And Change the lines (There will be two lines only) -
Code:
Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$3
Please Note :- You have to find the number same as in which you find the above *** mentioned lines.
So please make sure for this.
Now Change the "3" or "#" to "99" where "#" is the number in which you find the *** lines.
Done That.
Now Open - "GlobalActions$SinglePressAction.smali"
And Do like given -
Add the BLUE lines in that like its given below
Code:
# annotations
.annotation system Ldalvik/annotation/EnclosingClass;
value = Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions;
.end annotation
.annotation system Ldalvik/annotation/InnerClass;
accessFlags = 0x40a
name = "SinglePressAction"
.end annotation
[COLOR=Blue][COLOR=Black] -----------------------Make Sure the gap will be of 2(two) lines[/COLOR]
# static fields
.field protected static rebootMode:I
.field protected static final rebootOptions:[Ljava/lang/String;[/COLOR]
[COLOR=Blue][COLOR=Black] -----------------------Make Sure the gap will be of 2(two) lines[/COLOR][/COLOR]
# instance fields
.field private final mIcon:Landroid/graphics/drawable/Drawable;
Now Find "#direct methods"
and paste these lines just after this and whithout any gap between "#direct methods" and the lines you pasted.
Code:
.method static constructor <clinit>()V
.registers 3
const/4 v0, 0x4
new-array v0, v0, [Ljava/lang/String;
const/4 v1, 0x0
const-string v2, "Normal Reboot"
aput-object v2, v0, v1
const/4 v1, 0x1
const-string v2, "Soft Reboot"
aput-object v2, v0, v1
const/4 v1, 0x2
const-string v2, "Hard Reboot"
aput-object v2, v0, v1
const/4 v1, 0x3
const-string v2, "Recovery"
aput-object v2, v0, v1
sput-object v0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$SinglePressAction;->rebootOptions:[Ljava/lang/String;
return-void
.end method
Now Download the given zip file and extract it. Copy all the files of the zip to -
"android.poliy.jar.out/smali/com/android/internal/policy/impl/ here" (here=files downloaded from this guide).
Done That. Now Recompile it and Flash it. Make sure to make a backup before you flash any MOD.

small tip, also make sure in dimensions (res/values/dimen.xml) :
Code:
<item type="dimen" name="status_bar_icon_drawing_alpha">100.0%</item>
else transparency look bit odd...

Just Replace your entire OnClick Method by the below method:-
Code:
[B][COLOR="black"].method public [COLOR="red"]SettingsButton[/COLOR](Landroid/view/View;)V
.locals 3
.parameter "v"
.prologue
.line 2431
new-instance v0, Landroid/content/Intent;
invoke-direct {v0}, Landroid/content/Intent;-><init>()V
.line 2432
const-string v1, "[COLOR="Red"]com.android.settings[/COLOR]"
const-string v2, "[COLOR="red"]com.android.settings.Settings[/COLOR]"
invoke-virtual {v0, v1, v2}, Landroid/content/Intent;->setClassName(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;)Landroid/content/Intent;
const/high16 v2, 0x1000
invoke-virtual {v0, v2}, Landroid/content/Intent;->setFlags(I)Landroid/content/Intent;
move-result-object v0
.line 2433
invoke-virtual {p0, v0}, Landroid/content/Context;->startActivity(Landroid/content/Intent;)V
const-string v1, "statusbar"
invoke-virtual {p0, v1}, Landroid/content/Context;->getSystemService(Ljava/lang/String;)Ljava/lang/Object;
move-result-object v0
check-cast v0, Landroid/app/StatusBarManager;
[COLOR="red"]invoke-virtual {v0}, Landroid/app/StatusBarManager;->collapse()V[/COLOR]
.line 1720
return-void
.end method[/COLOR][/B]
and then make the following changes
* replace red ones with the following -
in the 1st line, give any name to the button u want to define . eg:- .method public ProfileButton(Landroid/view/ViewV
in const-string v1, " * put target class name here*
in const - string v2, " * put the target class name as well as an activity to call it *
for eg:-
in const - string v1 ----- target class is to call the complete app ---------> com.android.contacts
and in const - string v2 ----- add package name + an activity to call it --------> com.android.contacts.activities.PeopleActivity
Lets take an example for defining a method and calling it . i'll call Settings here
Code:
.method public [COLOR="red"]settingsButton[/COLOR](Landroid/view/View;)V
.locals 3
.parameter "v"
.prologue
.line 2431
new-instance v0, Landroid/content/Intent;
invoke-direct {v0}, Landroid/content/Intent;-><init>()V
.line 2432
const-string v1, "[COLOR="red"]com.android.settings[/COLOR]"
const-string v2, "[COLOR="red"]com.android.settings.Settings[/COLOR]"
invoke-virtual {v0, v1, v2}, Landroid/content/Intent;->setClassName(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;)Landroid/content/Intent;
const/high16 v2, 0x1000
invoke-virtual {v0, v2}, Landroid/content/Intent;->setFlags(I)Landroid/content/Intent;
move-result-object v0
.line 2433
invoke-virtual {p0, v0}, Landroid/content/Context;->startActivity(Landroid/content/Intent;)V
const-string v1, "statusbar"
invoke-virtual {p0, v1}, Landroid/content/Context;->getSystemService(Ljava/lang/String;)Ljava/lang/Object;
move-result-object v0
check-cast v0, Landroid/app/StatusBarManager;
invoke-virtual {v0}, Landroid/app/StatusBarManager;->collapse()V
.line 1720
return-void
.end method
after this we have to call it on clicking a tile . so lets define it in the quickpanel_quick_settings_space.xml
Add this wherever you want the tile to appear .
Code:
<RelativeLayout android:id="@id/settings_button" android:background="@drawable/tile_toggle" android:layout_width="125.0px" android:layout_height="150.0px" android:layout_weight="1.0">
<Button android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal" android:background="@drawable/set" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" [COLOR="Red"][SIZE="4"]android:onClick="settingsButton"[/SIZE][/COLOR] />
<TextView android:textSize="14.0dip" android:textColor="#ffffffff" android:gravity="center" android:background="#00000000" android:layout_width="240.0px" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_marginBottom="3.0px" android:text="Settings" android:singleLine="true" android:layout_alignParentBottom="true" />
</RelativeLayout>
Video to Confirm it working. :highfive:
Sorry if the above explaination is too long :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

You have mentioned notification_header_bg two times in your drawable.xml inside the values folder.
Try deleting it. It will recompile easily.

[Req] Sense GPS Crosshair Removal

Hey guys! I'm on stock rooted 4.3 sense 5.0 using Xposed framework + Sense 5 toolbox for all the tweaks/mods (awesome btw for anyone unaware) and I've been looking for a way to get rid of the GPS crosshair in the status bar.
I've only had this phone for about a week but I did some searching for something but was unable to come up with anything. The closest I could find was OMJ's mod pack but to enable that feature, it looks like you have enable a couple other things... plus I believe I'm still odexed.
I'd like to stay stock like I am. Is there an easy way to do this, or have I missed something?
Thanks in advance!

Not necessarily. I'd thought of that but, as I said in my previous post, the only mod I'd found that would take care of it is OMJ's mod pack which comes with eqs and something else that I didn't really want.
Thanks for the reply though :laugh: I now feel like I'm being too picky haha! I like my setup but it's the only thing that bothers me having that icon just sitting there for no reason.

Please share how to modify it bro because I actually hate it too
Sent from my unknown using Tapatalk

you have to decompile SystemUI.apk and the you have go to smali/com/android/systemui/statusbar/policy/LocationBasedController.small and find this
Code:
method private updateIcon()V
.locals 4
const/4 v1, 0x1
const/4 v2, 0x0
const/4 v0, 0x1
invoke-static {}, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/policy/HtcGenericNetworkController;->isVerizon()Z

iget-boolean v3, p0, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/policy/LocationBasedServiceController;->isGpsEnabled:Z

if-eqz v3, :cond_3
move v0, v2
:goto_1
goto :goto_0
:cond_3
move v0, v1
goto :goto_1
.end method
and make it like this
Code:
.method private updateIcon()V
.locals 4
const/4 v0, 0x0
return-void
.end method
then recompile SystemUI.apk(make sure you sign it) and flash or adb push
(i would do it this way.
Code:
adb remount(hit enter)
adb shell stop(hit enter)
adb push<drag newly signed and compiled SystemUI here> /system/app/(hit enter)
adb reboot(hit enter)
then go set permissions(with whatever file explorer you use) to rw-r-r

and make it like this
Code:
.method private updateIcon()V
.locals 4

then recompile SystemUI.apk(make sure you sign it) and flash or adb push
(i would do it this way.
Code:
adb remount(hit enter)
adb shell stop(hit enter)
adb push<drag newly signed and compiled SystemUI here> /system/app/(hit enter)
adb reboot(hit enter)
then go set permissions(with whatever file explorer you use) to rw-r-r

this xposed module might get rid of it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2353965
its purpose is to fix the data icons, but it also gets rid of the persistent gps icon (on 4.1.2 at least, the 4.3 rom I'm using already has it removed so I haven't checked that on 4.3).

This guide and mod originated in the Galaxy S4 threads and was created by @Aou who has since left the AT&T world so development
stopped at that point, I have taken the code and modded it slightly to work for our S5 devices (All variants even the Active)

All devs are free to use this MOD with proper recognition in your OP make sure you provide a mention to "Aou" for the
original code found here Removing SysScope - Permanent "Official" Device Status
and myself for the re-write of the instructions and changes to make this work for our devices.

Prerequisites:
You need java installed and working at the command prompt.
You need smali and baksmali in your working directory. I used v1.4.2 of each. Here's some links: baksmali and smali.
Basic ADB skills
A good text editor, such as Notepad++. Even better, and good text comparison tool would be great to check your work (get a trial of Beyond Compare 3 maybe?).
Originally, I used a comparison tool, but in the end found myself just making the edits in Notepad++.
7zip or some other compressing/deompressing tool that can add a file into an .apk file.
Zip-Align (available in the SDK tools and other places around XDA) - technically optional, but probably a good idea
Get all these things into a working folder, open your command prompt in that folder, test ADB, and then begin.
Main Instructions:
1. Make sure you have an unmodded copy of your framework files (twframework-res.apk and framework-res.apk)
you need have these available locally for your chosen method to decompile (I'm not going to describe how
to decompile in this thread, If you don't know how then this MOD is not for you)
2. Pull a copy of the SecSettings.apk
adb pull /system/priv-app/SecSettings.apk
3. Decompile SecSettings.apk (using your favorite tools I recomend Virtuous Ten Studio)
4. Edit classes_out\com\android\settings\deviceinfo\Status .smali manually (using Notepad++).
"Remove:" means to delete a line or remove a section entirely.
"Change:" means to look at the original code, and make it look like the "to" part.
NOTE depending on your ethod of decompiling you may not see the line numbers
however, if you do delete from the appropriate code section as well.

you need to change the whole method out the lines with the ID are what you need to look up in your build to match to the appropriate status response.

Actually I found a module for xposed called xuimodule it allows for over scroll color change. Works OK on stock but with the koolkit.xml it's a little funky as I believe it was causing some lag so I removed it and lag is gone.

hmmmm, i wonder if it has an entry in csc that it couldnt handle because its locked down? I might have to re-think the whole "xPosed-Proof" feature mod.

Hey, followed your CIQ removal guide and everything went perfectly. I've checked for any CIQ threads or network traffic and there is none. Job very well done.
However, with this guide, I am finding I have /system/app/SysScope.apk but no SecSettings.apk. I have a bunch of other APKs that begin with the Sec prefix but no SecSettings.apk. Any ideas?
EDIT: Found it under /system/priv-app/SecSettings.apk. You should update the pull command in the guide.
EDIT2: Can't find /res/values/public.xml file that contains any mention of sysscope, checked framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk as well as SecSettings.apk. No luck. Is the definition somewhere else perhaps?
EDIT3: Perhaps this is tied to the fact that I can only open SecSettings.apk for editing if I chose "basic editing" in the import. If I try for advanced editing, I get a slew of decompilation errors, regardless of which FrameworkTag I pick.
Decompilation errors that occur if I try to decomp with aapt are the same as the ones I see if I try to do "advanced editing". I've tried both framework tags when importing and I always get these errors during unpack. I have a feeling that "basic editing" doesn't fully unpack the res directory as needed and advanced is having trouble with the XML parse.

1. Make sure you have an unmodded copy of your framework files (twframework-res.apk and framework-res.apk)
you need have these available locally for your chosen method to decompile (I'm not going to describe how
to decompile in this thread, If you don't know how then this MOD is not for you)
2. Pull a copy of the SecSettings.apk
adb pull /system/app/SecSettings.apk
3. Decompile SecSettings.apk (using your favorite tools I recomend Virtuous Ten Studio)
4. Edit classes_out\com\android\settings\deviceinfo\Status .smali manually (using Notepad++).
"Remove:" means to delete a line or remove a section entirely.
"Change:" means to look at the original code, and make it look like the "to" part.
NOTE depending on your ethod of decompiling you may not see the line numbers
however, if you do delete from the appropriate code section as well.

from the error looks as if you are trying to decompile with the wrong frameworks youll need to make sure the framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk are the ones unmodded stock ones from your rom base

once you have the mod completed yes, remove sysscope.apk and place modded secsettings in rom base and flash

ok...can you take a look at these? I get about half way through your guide and then it gets lost. I don't know if the info just isnt there or what?
Thanks!

Hey, followed your CIQ removal guide and everything went perfectly. I've checked for any CIQ threads or network traffic and there is none. Job very well done.
However, with this guide, I am finding I have /system/app/SysScope.apk but no SecSettings.apk. I have a bunch of other APKs that begin with the Sec prefix but no SecSettings.apk. Any ideas?
EDIT: Found it under /system/priv-app/SecSettings.apk. You should update the pull command in the guide.
EDIT2: Can't find /res/values/public.xml file that contains any mention of sysscope, checked framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk as well as SecSettings.apk. No luck. Is the definition somewhere else perhaps?
EDIT3: Perhaps this is tied to the fact that I can only open SecSettings.apk for editing if I chose "basic editing" in the import. If I try for advanced editing, I get a slew of decompilation errors, regardless of which FrameworkTag I pick.
Decompilation errors that occur if I try to decomp with aapt are the same as the ones I see if I try to do "advanced editing". I've tried both framework tags when importing and I always get these errors during unpack. I have a feeling that "basic editing" doesn't fully unpack the res directory as needed and advanced is having trouble with the XML parse.

your not looking sysscope your actually looking for " <public type="string" name="sysscope_normal" you have to be specific in the search

am having trouble getting dropbox or anywhere to work. Here is the untouched status.smali.
Thanks very much...I keep getting stumped because the edits I need to make just don't seem to be there when I decompile the apk. Not sure why.

Hello.thanks man. Working great on my 5.1.1 Samsung note edge ROM..
regards

@cstayton
"<public type="string" name="sysscope_tampered" id="0x7f0a01be" />"
and also for "<public type="string" name="sysscope_normal" id="0x7f0a01bd" />" and also for
"<public type="string" name="sysscope_status" id="0x7f0a01bc" />"
Those are my public values.
Im having trouble with the last Change. I have changed and removed everything else, could you help me with the last step? Im not sure what needs to be changed. My smali.status should be attached. any help is appreciated. thank you
