I allowed 2.3 and up when I released the app, but it turned out that people would give constantly bad ratings, due to high incompatibility with Gingerbread.

So I "cut" the 2.3 support and began taking advantage of newer versions of android such as the action bar, object animators and so on.

Framework Tool is in a state where the benefits of going back to 2.3 compatibility are so small compared to all the work needed to accomplish that.

Sorry for the bad news! :(

Also I feel 4.0+ devices are the future its difficult to make the app compatible on lower versions of android. 2.3 and below versions have a different prospect towards framework altogether...

Hi, would it be possible to have an option to make pointer_arrow.png in res/drawable-xhdpi/ invisible? It would make it a lot easier to hide then pointer that shows with the S-Pen for Galaxy Note 2 users on AOSP ROMs. At the moment lots of people suggest changing the pointer type in the pen IDC file, but that disables palm rejection.

Thanks.

I used this on Samsung Galaxy S2 and it works flawlessly. It gives TW roms some new life. Can't wait to see what updates you will throw our way.I also bought the unlocker to support you!

It can be made completly transparent, if that is what you want.

Hey jannis I would like to report a bug

Have you ever used MX player or vlc media player?

If yes then do you know that while the video is playing we can adjust volume by sliding up on the right side and brightness by sliding up on the left side?

My bug is after using framework tool the brightness doesn't adjust in the player but can adjust it manually in settings

I think you can reproduce it in MX player and check it yourself:)

Thanks for the feedback.

I just installed MX Player on my frameworktooled Nexus 4 and the brightness slider on the left of the screen worked as it should.

Maybe a restart will fix it. ;)

I've been using it on CM9, back when I still had my SGS2.

So yes, it should work.

    This app will make Theming your phone as easy as tapping on a button. The concept is easy:
    You tap the MOD you want, and my app will apply it for you. Currently there are about 20 functions, but I am willing to improve the app even more. Now it is your turn! Test it on your device and let me know what you think, if you are not very happy, tell me, if you are, tell me too. This is a communitiy project, so lets see how far we can get and create more hot features as the possibility to use your own backgrounds (Settings as an example) for the system, with just a few taps, and no computer required! This app needs Root! This App can now run on versions below 4.0, BUT it can leed to strange things



    Wait! If you download this app, please do write a review here or in the Play Store!


    Click here to download from PlayStore, this is recommended

    Changed App Theme



    Beta 2.1:
    Added new blue skinned loading spinner
    Added new AppStartup animations (Gingerbread and Jelly Bean)
    Ad behaviour changed
    ------

    Beta 2:
    Added Backup feature, it will also ask you atomatically for a backup if you update your ROM.
    Added Clean Up feature, without it strange things could happen.
    App can now run on versions below 4.0, BUT I do not support it!

    ------
    Initial Beta release - Beta 1
    4
    You can now download Beta 2.1:

    -It changes the ads behaviour
    -Adds new app startup animations
    -Changes the way the "blue spinner" looks

    Other news:
    I found the definite problem with previous app builds and the random "su-shell" behaviour, it was JavaScript beeing executed in the WebView.
    4
    Ok, here is a little update on my progress:

    The whole day, I tried to find out, why my app began to execute su-commands only randomly. And it turns out, that if I add another Activity, to the app, this akward behaviour returns. This means, the app will stay "one-activity" only. This is bad for me, and will lead to long loading times and "App not responding"-Notifications sometimes.

    The good thing about this is, that I don't have to rewrite everything. :laugh:

    EDIT:
    Expect Beta 2 to be available tomorrow!
    3
    tested on aokp #40
    - all animations doesnt work
    - after reboot, google account was remove
    - cant back to original framework
    - spinner not smooth

    good job!
    Give me a download link to your ROM, or just framework-res.apk, and I am sure I will fix it. I am working on a Backup feature, but it will take at least 1 hour until, I am done with it. Anyhow, please don't use sarcasm and be nice, a "beta" is supposed to be nowhere near a final product.

    ok, played enough with some of the option. Now, how can i go back to default options?
    Stay tuned! If everything goes as expected you will be able to restore from the app itself. But first of all, you will need to reflash your ROM. I thought people would create an backup on their own first.

    sometimes it gives me the blue ics one but sometimes it shows an ugly Orange box!
    I am sure this is due to ParanoidAndroid and its akward dpi-usage. But it should be possible to fix it.

    But why my google accounts are deleted after install ?
    Ehm, I guess it is some kind of security mechanism by google. It seems to happen only on some ROMs. For me as an example on CM9, it is not happening.

    very nice app
    can u make another app like this but for status bar and notification bar
    The SystemUI.apk is too different from one phone/rom to another, so it is not on my ToDo-List.

    Check the video and you'll see an orange box while loading.
    http://db.tt/5YEYds8a

    Any clue which png's are these into res/ folder? I want to manually replace them.

    I am sure it is because your ROM normally uses the resources which are not used by the modded xmls. But this is something that can be done.

    NOW MY QUESTION:
    An update for the app which adds a backup functionality first, or a bigger one, that will also patch the "orange boxes" as an example together with the backup. The 2nd will require more time. ??
