[MOD][ICS]Recent Apps, quickpanel toggle w/sound, NO CARRIER LABEL-Alpha2 & Seraphim

This is a few different mods rolled into one.
First mod is for recent apps thumbnails, based on evilisto's excellent guide. I've made my own changes to it. This is not his WP7 app switcher.

Update 4/19: I made some mods to the quickpanels in version 2. Removed the text, got rid of the permanent settings notification and moved the settings button next to the date. Also, I added the sound toggle back into the quickpanel and removed the power saving.

Update 4/20: Carrier label has been removed from the status bar at all times.


There are now versions of V2 and V3 for DAGr8's Alpha 2 and The Collective's Seraphim
Update: Unofficially V1 is working on Seraphim, too, based on babalonius508's feedback.



This mod changes the framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk so you WILL LOSE all framework and other status bar mods, including the 15 toggle mod. BUT, version 2 has it's own toggle mod, adding in the sound toggle to switch between silent/vibrate/sound!

==>USB mount works with this toggle mod because it's native!<==

Disclaimer - I am not responsible if you mess up your phone in any way. Remember this is only for DAGr8's ICS Alpha 2 and it will remove any other status bar and framework mods you've already done. Using the Alpha 2 revert doesn't get the toggles back, either. You need to flash that mod again.


If you read this far, put "42" somewhere in your post.

Look great man!! Fantastic job! Can't wait to test this out. So this won't work on any other rom?

Alright, I decided to test it out on Seraphim and it works fine but like you mentioned, it removed the themed notification icons and toggles. It's a bit of a trade off.

The full screen thumbnails look fantastic and I'll be fine without the themed notifications and toggles for now until there is a way to keep both. Regardless, thanks for the awesome mod!

Would be interesting to see someone put up a video of this in action. I'm interested but not sure if I want to try putting it on over my jade seraphim. If I saw it in action, I might have to change my mind. Cool work nonetheless. Oh, and 42.

Hit my thanks if I helped you :)

There was an issue with the 15 toggle mod where some users reported that after flashing it, they lost the ability to mount as a usb storage device (Wireless and Network -> USB Utilities -> Connect Storage to PC). Does the version 2 mod here (which modifies the toggles) suffer the same issue? I'm still on GB so I can't test ATM. Thanks!

No. I activated native code that had been deactivated, or more accurately hidden from view.

You can mount USB with this toggle mod on ICS.

It looks good in the video and "42" lol I read the whole op and rest of thread. I'm using the xda app on seraphim right now and like most other posts the screen shots posted just look like place holders so I can't see them til I get to a PC. Is it still modded blue in seraphim v2? The video shows green only reason I'm asking. Thanks.

Oh and my 2nd question. Previously on dagr8 kc's leak alpha 2 and flashing 15 toggles from SR forum it also messed up the resolution of the drop down bar for ongoing activities it only displayed 1 line even if the ongoing activity required more. That was due to framework / XML from the SR and differerent resolutions. Any issues like that? I'm very happy you got it working with USB mount still functional too : )

The Seraphim version is blue. It uses the SystemUI and framework-res from their ROM, so their theme is intact.

The one in the video is the Alpha 2 version because that's what I had on my phone at the time.

    This is a very nice upgrade to the task manager! You have been thanked and rated 5 stars.

    On the ICS version, how would I go about changing the notification bar icons blue? Is it as simple as unpacking the zip, recoloring the images, repacking the zip, and then flashing? The green is a Gingerbread color.

    42
    Thanks for the thanks and stars.

    You can do it that way, yes. You just need to change out the images in res/drawable-xhdpi.
    The green is just the stock ICS color from Samsung. DAGr8 didn't change the colors for A2.

    Here's a hint though: You can flash the Seraphim version if you have A2 and it'll give you the blue like in the screenshot. That's actually what I did when I tested it. I'm just not going to officially say that in the OP because it's not really good practice to cross system files like that. And it might not work...just make sure you have revert files and nandroids.
