Version for stock 4.0.4

I went ahead and made the mod using the stock 4.0.4 framework-res.apk. It's just the edited .apk and not flashable. I used adb to push it, but you can probably download one of the flashable .zips in post 1 and put this file in there if you want. This mod is great with LMT Launcher and the pie option.


Please if you don't mind would you patch this for me? I would greatly appreciate it. I'm running Ir11 beta 2.
It's simple to do by yourself :). Download the attached working-apktool.zip. Extract it. Double click Command Prompt.bat. Put your framework-res.apk into the same folder. Type "apktool if framework-res.apk". Then, type "apktool d framework-res.apk". It will make a folder called framework-res. Find bools.xml and follow instructions in post 1. In command prompt, type "apktool b framework-res new.apk". Open (don't extract) framework-res.apk and new.apk with an archive manager (I use 7zip). Drag resources.arsc from new.apk to framework-res.apk. Close the windows and you are done. Place it in a flashable .zip from post 1 or use adb.

If you can't get it, post and I or someone can try. I'd rather teach someone how to do it themselves than do it for them :D.

See my edited post above. I got that from someone's post here on xda, but I don't remember the thread. It's a modified apktool that works better with ICS.

can you use apk manager or apkmultitool? i was using apk manager maybe thats why it didnt work.

also just to clarified you just take resources.arsc out of the modified frameworks apk and put it in the original apk and push original apk to device?

Op you need to put a donate button so i can buy you a beer! this in combination with LMT is the best mod for the GN in my opinion.

I haven't had as good of luck with apkmanager/multitool. I just use apktool itself since it's simpler to me. Yes, resources.arsc is the compiled .xml's and you want to go from the modified version and replace the stock version. I've just always done things that way since I followed a guide I found awhile ago and I'm not 100% sure it's really necessary (but since it takes 2 seconds, I just do it anyway).

I just flashed this mod on paulobrien's modaco 4.0.4 and it's working beautifully with the new LMT v0.85 pie feature. No lag, no stutter... Pure full screen! Might even hide the notification bar.. Haha.
Finally full screen enjoyment of our gNexus!

    hide navbar for Paul's Modaco Rom 4.0.4

    Well guys , I got many requests of how i flashed 4.0.4 with this mod , so I am posting a flashable CWM zip for paul's 4.0.4 Rom . So here is the attached file. I didn't do any scripting, just replaced the op flashable file of aokp with 4.0.4 framework of modaco. Make sure you guys install latest version of LMT before you flash so you can navigate better after the flash.
