[HOW TO][Gingerbread] Adding Reboot option to Power Menu

---

Here is a tutorial with screenshots on how to add the reboot option to the power menu for the Defy.

This is not my work .It is a rewrite of this thread modified for use on the Defy .

For this operation you will need :

1. APK Manager

2. smali/baksmali or use the one attached .

3. Notepad++

In this tutorial we are going to modify these files :framework-res.apk,frmework.jar ,android.policy.jar .
You require knowledge of decompiling/recompiling apk and jar files ,and some basic text editing (.xml and .smali)

For this example I'm using the 4.5.1-134-DFP-132 rom ,but this should work on any Gingerbread rom ???

Ok,let's start.

1. We need to add this line to your build.prop file or the whole thing will not work :

ro.mot.deep.sleep.supported=true

2. Next we need to add the resources to framework-res.apk .Decompile the framework-res.apk file.
In the project folder open "framework-res.apk\res\values\strings.xml" and add your string resources .

<string name="reboot">Reboot</string>

Screenshot :



save and close

Now open "framework-res.apk\res\drawable-hdpi" and add an image that will be shown next to the reboot string in the power menu .
Name the image "ic_lock_reboot.png".

Screenshot :



Recompile the framework-res.apk .This will create an unsignedframework-res.apk file in the "place-apk-here-for-modding" folder.
Decompile the unsignedframework-res.apk file and open "unsignedframework-res.apk\res\values\public.xml"
Find your image and string id's and write them down .

Screenshot :





3. Next we need to modify Defy's shutdown method to accept 1 more option .
Decompile framework and open "com\android\internal\app\ShutdownThread.smali"

Since we are going to pass an integer to ShutdownThread and then evaluate that integer when the code runs,
we have to have a spot for the integer so add this to line 25

.field public static mReboot:I

Screenshot :



Then at line 545 add this code before "invoke-static {}, Landroid/os/Power;->shutdown()V"

sget v1, Lcom/android/internal/app/ShutdownThread;->mReboot:I

      const/4 v2, 0x1

      if-eq v1, v2, :reboot

Then after this code on about line 555

invoke-static {}, Landroid/os/Power;->shutdown()V

.line 512
return-void

Add this code

:reboot
      const-string v4, "now"

      invoke-static {v4}, Landroid/os/Power;->reboot(Ljava/lang/String;)V

      return-void

Screenshot :



Save and close

Compile framework

4. Now we are going to add the extra options to the power menu

Decompile android.policy

Open "com\android\internal\policy\impl\GlobalActions.sma li"

The first thing that we need to do is increase the array length by 1 so in method createDialog on line 628 change this :

const/4 v0, 0x4

      new-array v0, v0, [Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$Action;

To this :

const/4 v0, 0x5

      new-array v0, v0, [Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$Action;

Screenshot :



Now add the new menu items this is where the resource id's that we added to framework-res.apk com into play.
So on line 658 after "aput-object v1, v0, v12" add this code :

const/4 v1, 0x4

      new-instance v2, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$10;

      const v3, 0x108045c

      const v4, 0x10404fc

      invoke-direct {v2, p0, v3, v4}, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$10;-><init>(Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions;II)V

      aput-object v2, v0, v1

Screenshot :



Make sure to change the resource id's to match what you added to to framework-res.apk .

Save and close .

Next add the code that runs when the menu item is pressed

Copy GlobalActions$5.smali and name it GlobalActions$10.smali open GlobalActions$10 and replace all instances of GlobalActions$5
with GlobalActions$10 then add this code to line 54 before
"invoke-static {v0, v1}, Lcom/android/internal/app/ShutdownThread;->shutdown(Landroid/content/Context;Z)V"

const/4 p0, 0x1

      sput p0, Lcom/android/internal/app/ShutdownThread;->mReboot:I

Screenshot :



Save and close

Compile android.policy

Done.

Now you can test it on the phone.

Zomg XD not so fast Thanks dude ^_^

Hi, would you explain to me what should i have to start modifyng this? I used notepad+ to edit values and others... but it is not enough, i don't know development, but i'd like to know how to proceed and with wich tool should i do those changes. Thanks

sorry for bothering .. !

The tools are listed above ,but here again with download locations :

1. APK Manager

2. smali/baksmali

3. Notepad++

This is what I use .Hope it helps .

Edit: edited first post

Thanks you very much!!

Why not simply flash the nandroid that already has it built in? :S Saves a lot of time and hassle.

Of course it's easier ,but some of us here like to know how it is done .
Furthermore it's not just for this specific rom .I belive it can be applied to all gingerbread roms (didn't try it on all ,maybe the line numbers and resources don't match ,but the principle is the same ).

Guess the title is a bit confusing .Changing it.

Hello spear1403.
I would like to add this option to defy my stock rom 2.2.
It may do? I have it root.
If you pass me the necessary files you would do?.
Thank you very much. Greetings from Argentina.

PD: Sorry for my bad english. :$

I don't know if it works on Froyo roms ,but You can try it out .Be sure to make backups of your original files ,so if something goes wrong You can go back.

It works. Check out this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=812341
But I'm half noob on these issues. Your tutorial is very well explained.
But there are things I do not know how we do.
For example:
As decompile and compile JAR files.
Or at what point using "Automated Smali"

PS: Could you upload the "Automated Smalian BakSmali" to any fileserver.

I appreciate your time and help.
