Ink Effect Mod 18 Colors for JB
Ripple effect must already be enabled for this mod to work.
This mod is pretty complex and requires a good deal of tedious work.
Fortunately, I've already done most of the hard stuff but there is still some left to do so let's get on it.
If something is not clear, let me know and I will try to clarify. Tnx - TD
First of all, please download and extract the attached file.
Android.policy.jar smali edits
The android.policy.jar file edits are pretty straightforward. Just copy over the pre-modified smali files, replacing any existing files and recompile.
SecSettings.apk edits
Copy over the ink .png files over to the decompiled SecSettings.apk from the files download.
Add the following code to strings:
res/values/strings.xml
Compile SecSettings.apk and then DECOMPILE the new SecSettings.apk because we need to get the new values from res/public.xml.
Before we start working on the smali code for SecSettings, we now need to fill out the blank worksheet provided in the file below. A sample worksheet has already been included.
Here is an excerpt:
Worksheet legend - by category:
Color - 19 colors listed in the order they are programmed in.
- Note: NONE is considered a color since it has an image file and takes up a line of its own in all the arrays.
Ink_effect_color - values associated to the string values.
- For example: ink_effect_color_black - in public.xml value is represented as 7f090d6d
Ink_color - these are the drawable values that represent the .png image files we placed in the drawable-hdpi folder before compiling
- For example: ink_black in public.xml value is represented as 7f0203e3
__________________________________________
Fill out the Worksheet
Now, we are going to fill out the included blank worksheet and this will take a little time so be careful and patient.
Open SecSettings/res/values/public.xml in notepad+.
Also open Ink.template.blank in notepad+ so both files are open at the same time.
Ink_effect_color Category
Search res/values/public.xml for ink_effect_color and copy and paste the 8 character value (without the leading 0X) into the spreadsheet for the corresponding color and keep doing this until all colors have a value in the ink_effect_color category.
Ink_color Category
Search res/values/public.xml for ink_black. We have 2 entries, one for ink_black and one for ink_black_h like so:
Copy and paste ink_black value directly beneath the ink_color row and copy and paste the ink_black_h value offset as shown in the filled out example worksheet. Keep going through public.xml until you have filled out all the colors as shown in the example worksheet.
Now that the worksheet is completely filled out, we can start editing the arrays.
You can see that the second row on the worksheet shows the file we will be editing for the corresponding values.

Find array_10:
EVERY ARRAY IS ARRANGED IN THE SAME ORDER AS THE WORKSHEET
This is where it gets interesting. By my example worksheet, we can see that the value for None is 7f090f48, (that is the row in the worksheet we are using for this array).
Let's break down the array. The array has 4 vertical rows. You will notice that nearly all of the vertical rows except for rows #1 and rows #2 have the same values.
The first HORIZONTAL row is the value for NONE. The 7f090f48 is listed BACKWARDS 2 characters at a time. The same values are hightlighted blue in our array above for row 1. 48 is row1, f is row 2 (notice the leading zero drops off for rows 2 & 3), 9 is row 3, 7f is row 4.
Value listed backwards in groups of two, and corresponding first line of the array:
Now take the values listed in the worksheet you filled out and start putting the values in the array accordingly. The only values you should be inputting into this array are from the ink_effect_color category.
Note: More than likely you will not need to edit vertical rows 3 & 4 at all.
SecSettings Smali Edit:
com/android/settings/InkeffectPreview.smali
Find arrays 14 & 28:
We are going to do the same thing we did for the LockScreenSettings array here.
The first array (array_14) is going to get the values directly below the ink_color category.
The second array (array_28) is going to get the values that were offset beneath the same category.
Note: These offset values represent the drawable value of the colors with the _h at the end of their filename. That is the reason we separated them slightly for easier viewing.

This edit is pretty straightforward. Go through and replace all 19 matching values in this section (remember NONE is still a color for coding purposes). The values are from our worksheet beneath the category Ink_effect_color.

Now take the values listed in the worksheet you filled out and start putting the values in the array accordingly. The only values you should be inputting into this array are from the ink_effect_color category.

We are going to do the same thing we did for the LockScreenSettings array here.
The first array (array_14) is going to get the values directly below the ink_color category.
The second array (array_28) is going to get the values that were offset beneath the same category.
Note: These offset values represent the drawable value of the colors with the _h at the end of their filename. That is the reason we separated them slightly for easier viewing.

This edit is pretty straightforward. Go through and replace all 19 matching values in this section (remember NONE is still a color for coding purposes). The values are from our worksheet beneath the category Ink_effect_color.
