[GUIDE][MOD][GB]Settings Shortcut in StatusBar [New method] 25/02/2013

b16h22 · Sep 22, 2012

Well,this new method is much much easier than the old method.Minimal smali editing is involved.So even newbies can follow it.

You are going to need

1.SystemUI.apk
2.Apk manager,virtuos ten studio or any apk compiling/decompiling tool
3.Notepad++
4.Patience and some time.

STEP 1Decompile your SystemUI.apk and go to status_bar_expanded.xml.Open the file and look for this (stock systemUI).

Code:

<com.android.systemui.statusbar.CarrierLabel android:textSize="17.659973dip" android:textColor="#ffffffff" android:layout_gravity="center_vertical" android:orientation="vertical" android:paddingBottom="1.0dip" android:layout_width="0.0dip" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_marginLeft="5.0dip" android:layout_marginTop="1.0dip" android:layout_weight="1.0" />

paste this code below that

Code:

<ImageView android:layout_gravity="center_vertical" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:src="@drawable/ic_notify_quicksettings"[COLOR="Red"] android:onClick="settingsButton"[/COLOR] />

Now save the file.

Code:

[COLOR="Red"] android:onClick="settingsButton"[/COLOR]

is an xml attribute used to call a method when pressing something.Now the settingsButton is the name of the method.

Note;It doesnt matter where you put the code for settings button in statusbar expanded.The above steps are for sgy users.You can put that code anywhere you want.But think logical and use common sense.

STEP 2 Now we can add the method settingsButton to StatusBarService.smali.Open the file and look for the code

Code:

# virtual methods

Paste this method below

Code:

.method public settingsButton(Landroid/view/View;)V
    .locals 3
    .parameter "v"

    .prologue
    .line 1717
    invoke-virtual {p1}, Landroid/view/View;->getContext()Landroid/content/Context;

    move-result-object v0

    new-instance v1, Landroid/content/Intent;

    const-string v2, "android.settings.SETTINGS"

    invoke-direct {v1, v2}, Landroid/content/Intent;-><init>(Ljava/lang/String;)V

    const/high16 v2, 0x1000

    invoke-virtual {v1, v2}, Landroid/content/Intent;->setFlags(I)Landroid/content/Intent;

    move-result-object v1

    invoke-virtual {v0, v1}, Landroid/content/Context;->startActivity(Landroid/content/Intent;)V

    invoke-virtual {p0}, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/StatusBarService;->animateCollapse()V
	
    .line 1720
    return-void
.end method

Now save the file.

android.settings.SETTINGS is the intent for calling settings app activity.You can change the intent to call diffrent activities.For example

android.settings.WIRELESS_SETTINGS -wireless and network settings
android.settings.WIFI_SETTINGS -Wifi settings
android.intent.action.POWER_USAGE_SUMMARY -Battery usage summary

STEP 3Now download and extract this Settings_shortcut_drawables.zip.Put the ic_notify_quicksettings.xml inside your drawable folder and the the other two pngs inside drawable-ldpi folder.

STEP 4Now compile and push.

Before asking doubts think twice always.If there is any error in the codes,do let me know.Happy to help.

Old method
Actually this mod is not made by me.I've just ported it and found the way to implement this in other roms.I've studied the SystemUI.apk from the theme by C.O.D.<D.J> for creed's rom.So all credit goes to him

Code:
EDIT:There is a small correction in the code

Code:

invoke-direct {v0, p0}, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/StatusBarService$8;-><init>(Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/StatusBarService;)V

.I've forgot to add <init> after 'StatusBarService$8;->' in the guide.Thanks to 'chevanlol360' for pointing out this error.

It's easy if you follow every step correctly

STEP 1: Decompile the SystemUI.apk.There are several threads around xda to show you how to decompile an apk.Navigate to res/layout/ and find status_bar_expanded.xml.Find the following code in the file

Code:

<com.android.systemui.statusbar.CarrierLabel android:textSize="17.659973dip" android:textColor="#ffffffff" android:layout_gravity="center_vertical" android:orientation="vertical" android:paddingBottom="1.0dip" android:layout_width="0.0dip" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_marginLeft="5.0dip" android:layout_marginTop="1.0dip" android:layout_weight="1.0" />

Paste this code just below it

Code:

<ImageView android:layout_gravity="center_vertical" android:id="@id/settings_button" android:paddingLeft="0.0dip" android:paddingTop="0.0dip" android:paddingRight="8.0dip" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:src="@drawable/ic_notify_quicksettings" android:contentDescription="@string/accessibility_settings_button" />

Now save and close the file.

STEP 2.Open res/values/strings.xml.And add this line at the end

Code:

<string name="accessibility_settings_button">System settings.</string>

Save and close the file

STEP 3.Open res/values/ids.xml and paste this code at the end

Code:

<item type="id" name="settings_button">false</item>

Save and close the file.

STEP 4.Now extract the files from the attached zip.Take "ic_notify_quicksettings.xml' and put it in res/drawable/.Take 'ic_settings_normal.png' and 'ic_settings_pressed.png' and put it in res/drawable-ldpi/.

Now recompile the apk and push it to system/app to make sure the settings button is there and everything look right.Now decompile that systemUI.apk again.Navigate to res/values/ .We need to find an id from public.xml

STEP 5.Now open public.xml and find this line

Code:

<public type="id" name="settings_button" id="[COLOR="Red"]0x7f090027[/COLOR]" />

Remember the id highlighted in red above.We need to use it.

STEP 6.Open StatusBarService.smali and find this line of code

Code:

.field mScrollView:Landroid/widget/ScrollView;

Paste this code below it

Code:

.field mSettingsBut:Landroid/view/View;

.field private mSettingsButListener:Landroid/view/View$OnClickListener;

Now find this code

Code:

    iput-object v0, p0, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/StatusBarService;->mStopTracing:Ljava/lang/Runnable;

Paste this code below

Code:

    .line 1703
    new-instance v0, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/StatusBarService$8;

    invoke-direct {v0, p0}, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/StatusBarService$8;-><init>(Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/StatusBarService;)V

    iput-object v0, p0, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/StatusBarService;->mSettingsButListener:Landroid/view/View$OnClickListener;

    return-void

Now again find this code

Code:

    iput v7, p0, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/StatusBarService;->mEdgeBorder:I

And paste this code below

Code:

    .line 333
    const v7, [COLOR="Red"]0x7f090027[/COLOR]

    invoke-virtual {v1, v7}, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/ExpandedView;->findViewById(I)Landroid/view/View;

    move-result-object v7

    iput-object v7, p0, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/StatusBarService;->mSettingsBut:Landroid/view/View;

    .line 334
    iget-object v7, p0, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/StatusBarService;->mSettingsBut:Landroid/view/View;

    iget-object v8, p0, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/StatusBarService;->mSettingsButListener:Landroid/view/View$OnClickListener;

    invoke-virtual {v7, v8}, Landroid/view/View;->setOnClickListener(Landroid/view/View$OnClickListener;)V

The id highlighted in red must be the same as the id from public.xml.So make sure it's the same.Now save and close the file.

STEP 7.Take 'StatusBarService$8.smali' from the attached zip an put it in com/android/systemui/statusbar/.

STEP 8.Now recompile the apk and push it to system/app/ and put the permission rw--r--r--.

If you want to get the feel of it in your stock statusbar i've made one for you just in case. Download it from here:

DOWNLOAD

Flash it through recovery.If you are running an odexed rom,delete SystemUI.odex from system/app before you flash the zip.

I'll look into it.I'm not near my pc.Actually step 1 puts the settings left to carrier text.You can add that code before the code for clear button.

How to move 15toogle to down settings button

alkspo said:

if the Statusbar have this code :

Code:

    .line 338
    .local v4, qsv:Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/quickpanel/QuickSettingsView;
    const-string v8, "ro.csc.sales_code"

    invoke-static {v8}, Landroid/os/SystemProperties;->get(Ljava/lang/String;)Ljava/lang/String;

    move-result-object v1

    .line 339
    .local v1, code:Ljava/lang/String;
    const-string v8, "XEC"

    invoke-virtual {v8, v1}, Ljava/lang/String;->equals(Ljava/lang/Object;)Z

    move-result v8

    if-eqz v8, :cond_1

you can delete it ,

If the statusbar have this :

Code:

    .line 340
    const v8, 0x7f030003

    invoke-static {p1, v8, v10}, Landroid/view/View;->inflate(Landroid/content/Context;ILandroid/view/ViewGroup;)Landroid/view/View;

    move-result-object v4

    .end local v4           #qsv:Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/quickpanel/QuickSettingsView;
    check-cast v4, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/quickpanel/QuickSettingsView;

    .line 348
    .restart local v4       #qsv:Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/quickpanel/QuickSettingsView;
    :goto_0
    iget-object v8, p0, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/StatusBarService;->mExpandedView:Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/ExpandedView;

    invoke-virtual {v8, v4, v13}, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/ExpandedView;->addView(Landroid/view/View;I)V

and delete this :

Code:

    .line 344
    :cond_1
    const v8, 0x3030003

    invoke-static {p1, v8, v10}, Landroid/view/View;->inflate(Landroid/content/Context;ILandroid/view/ViewGroup;)Landroid/view/View;

    move-result-object v4

    check-cast v4, Lcom/lidroid/systemui/quickpanel/PowerWidget;

    .local v4, qsv:Lcom/lidroid/systemui/quickpanel/PowerWidget;
    invoke-virtual {v4}, Lcom/lidroid/systemui/quickpanel/PowerWidget;->setupWidget()V

    goto :goto_0

you can change into :

so the line like as :

Code:

    .line 337
    const/4 v4, 0x0

    .line 344
    const v8, 0x3030003

    invoke-static {p1, v8, v10}, Landroid/view/View;->inflate(Landroid/content/Context;ILandroid/view/ViewGroup;)Landroid/view/View;

    move-result-object v4

    check-cast v4, Lcom/lidroid/systemui/quickpanel/PowerWidget;

    .line 348
    .local v4, qsv:Lcom/lidroid/systemui/quickpanel/PowerWidget;
    const/4 v9, 0x1

    invoke-virtual {v4}, Lcom/lidroid/systemui/quickpanel/PowerWidget;->setupWidget()V

    iget-object v8, p0, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/StatusBarService;->mExpandedView:Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/ExpandedView;

    invoke-virtual {v8, v4, v9}, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/ExpandedView;->addView(Landroid/view/View;I)V

    .line 352
    new-instance v8, Landroid/widget/LinearLayout;

    invoke-direct {v8, p1}, Landroid/widget/LinearLayout;-><init>(Landroid/content/Context;)V

    iput-object v8, p0, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/StatusBarService;->mMiniCon:Landroid/widget/LinearLayout;

    .line 353
    iget-object v8, p0, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/StatusBarService;->mMiniCon:Landroid/widget/LinearLayout;

    const/4 v9, 0x1

    invoke-virtual {v8, v9}, Landroid/widget/LinearLayout;->setOrientation(I)V

    .line 354
    iget-object v8, p0, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/StatusBarService;->mExpandedView:Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/ExpandedView;

    invoke-virtual {v8, v12}, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/ExpandedView;->findViewById(I)Landroid/view/View;

    move-result-object v8

    check-cast v8, Landroid/widget/LinearLayout;

    iget-object v9, p0, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/StatusBarService;->mMiniCon:Landroid/widget/LinearLayout;

    invoke-virtual {v8, v9, v13}, Landroid/widget/LinearLayout;->addView(Landroid/view/View;I)V

    .line 358
    const v8, 0x7f030005

    invoke-static {p1, v8, v10}, Landroid/view/View;->inflate(Landroid/content/Context;ILandroid/view/ViewGroup;)Landroid/view/View;

    move-result-object v8

    check-cast v8, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/CallOnGoingView;

    iput-object v8, p0, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/StatusBarService;->mCallOnGoingView:Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/CallOnGoingView;

    .line 359
    iget-object v8, p0, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/StatusBarService;->mCallOnGoingView:Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/CallOnGoingView;

    iput-object p0, v8, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/CallOnGoingView;->mService:Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/StatusBarService;

    .line 361
    return-void
.end method

If the resolution png (too small) with a resolution of handle you then I rename a ldpi, if png (fit) with a screen resolution of your handle then I rename a mdpi, if the png does not fit the screen resolution of your handle (too big) then I rename a hdpi .
thats trick to make png no zoom ( big or small icon ) . and make to past you screen resolution .
try my mods . push to system/app

sorry for bad english

alkspo · Sep 22, 2012
