[guide][jb][3-way] easily enable extended power menu for mtk devices

pavan kr · Jul 9, 2014

Hello Everyone ,

In this guide i'll show u how to add Reboot and Recovery option to power menu

There is lots of Guides on how to add recovery option to power menu but none worked perfectly on my device(MTK)

so i found a new way , in which we need not to find proper globalaction files

Requirements :

apktool
Notepad++
android.policy.jar
framework-res.apk
Time and Patience

Part-1

Decompile Your framework-res.apk and navigate to - res/value/strings.xml

add these lines at the end.

Code:

<string name="reboot_text">Reboot</string>
<string name="recovery_text">Recovery</string>

Like this

and add the attached pngs to - res/drawable-hdpi/ and compile the apk

again decompile the modded apk and open res/values/public.xml

Part-2

Now Decompile your "android.policy.jar" and add the attached files to - "android.policy.jar.out\smali\com\android\internal\policy\impl"

Now open GlobalActions.smali and find this method

Code:

.method private createDialog()Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$GlobalActionsDialog;

Below that you will see

Code:

.locals 11

change it to

Code:

.locals [COLOR="Red"]12[/COLOR]

Now find

Code:

.prologue

Below that paste this

Code:

const [COLOR="Red"]v11[/COLOR], 0x1080030        <------------ Replace the id with ic_lock_power_off (power off drawable) in the opened public.xml

Now Find this

Code:

new-instance [COLOR="Purple"]v1[/COLOR], Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$2;

const [COLOR="DarkGreen"]v2[/COLOR], 0x10400e7

change the id 0x10400e7 with the new id in public.xml

Code:

<public type="string" name="global_action_power_off"

now below that you will see

Code:

const [COLOR="Magenta"]v3[/COLOR], 0x10400e7

now delate the above line and paste this below

Code:

invoke-direct {v1, p0, v11, v2}, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$2;-><init>(Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions;II)V

    invoke-virtual {v0, v1}, Ljava/util/ArrayList;->add(Ljava/lang/Object;)Z

    .line 317
    iget-object v0, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions;->mItems:Ljava/util/ArrayList;

    new-instance v1, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$98;

    const [COLOR="Red"]v2[/COLOR], 0x108061a  <----------id of <public type="drawable" name="ic_lock_reboot" 

    const [COLOR="Magenta"]v3[/COLOR], 0x104054f  <----------id of <public type="string" name="reboot_text" 

    invoke-direct {v1, p0, v2, v3}, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$98;-><init>(Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions;II)V

    invoke-virtual {v0, v1}, Ljava/util/ArrayList;->add(Ljava/lang/Object;)Z

    .line 327
    iget-object v0, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions;->mItems:Ljava/util/ArrayList;

    new-instance v1, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$99;

    const [COLOR="Red"]v2[/COLOR], 0x1080619  <---------- id of  <public type="drawable" name="ic_lock_recovery" 

    const [COLOR="Magenta"]v3[/COLOR], 0x1040550  <-----------id of  <public type="string" name="recovery_text"

    invoke-direct {v1, p0, v2, v3}, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$99;-><init>(Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions;II)V

Replace the above ids with the id in your public.xml

Before :

After :

Code:

.line 281
    new-instance v0, Ljava/util/ArrayList;

    invoke-direct {v0}, Ljava/util/ArrayList;-><init>()V

    iput-object v0, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions;->mItems:Ljava/util/ArrayList;

    .line 284
    iget-object v0, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions;->mItems:Ljava/util/ArrayList;

    new-instance v1, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$2;

   [COLOR="Blue"] const v2, 0x10400e7

    invoke-direct {v1, p0, v11, v2}, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$2;-><init>(Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions;II)V

    invoke-virtual {v0, v1}, Ljava/util/ArrayList;->add(Ljava/lang/Object;)Z

    .line 317
    iget-object v0, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions;->mItems:Ljava/util/ArrayList;

    new-instance v1, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$98;

    const v2, 0x108061a

    const v3, 0x104054f

    invoke-direct {v1, p0, v2, v3}, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$98;-><init>(Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions;II)V

    invoke-virtual {v0, v1}, Ljava/util/ArrayList;->add(Ljava/lang/Object;)Z

    .line 327
    iget-object v0, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions;->mItems:Ljava/util/ArrayList;

    new-instance v1, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$99;

    const v2, 0x1080619

    const v3, 0x1040550

    invoke-direct {v1, p0, v2, v3}, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$99;-><init>(Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions;II)V

    invoke-virtual {v0, v1}, Ljava/util/ArrayList;->add(Ljava/lang/Object;)Z

   [/COLOR] .line 309
    iget-object v0, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions;->mItems:Ljava/util/ArrayList;

    iget-object v1, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions;->mAirplaneModeOn:Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$ToggleAction;

    invoke-virtual {v0, v1}, Ljava/util/ArrayList;->add(Ljava/lang/Object;)Z

Now compile and flash both the files

I have attached my GlobalActions.smali for comparision just change the extension from .zip to .smali

Result :

Hints :

1 . While Replacing the id from public.xml replace only last 7 digits

like this

2. keep track of registers (like v1 v2 v11 etc) and .Line numbers should be unique

3. Register values (like 0x108061a) will be Different for Different roms

I've Tested this guide on 3 different roms and it is working fine without any errors

If u Have any Problems Post here i'll try my best to help you
