Defy+ CM9 On-screen button

[marhensa]

The size when in landscape is perfect, plz make portrait the same.

the landscape size is the default one.. :angel:
48.0dip

if you just want to use default size, you don't have to flash anything..
you only simply need to edit build-prop in /system/build.prop

check m11kkaa post about it.

May we try first at least to see if the bigger size would be comfortable or not?
Thank you beforehand ...

navigation bar = is the real name of "onscreen button"

just go back to default (flash REVERT zip)

then add this line in build.prop
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0

in the next nightly, just add that line to activate onscreen button.
no need flashing any zip.

i create zip only for custom size of navigation bar button.

Seriously? That's it?
Just by adding one single command in the build.prop?

I'll give it a try right away, master ...

Wait a minute, how about the disabling of the 4 capacitive buttons?

only for Motorola DEFY (DEFY+ included, i think)

 

[AlexGraves]

Okay ... The default size is okay.
Not taking too much space, and definitely more easier to press ...

I can live with this ...

I rewrote my Tool to python-language so it now should work in windows and mac.
And I added options to change height in landscape and width.
https://github.com/M1cha/android_navbarenabler

usage: patch-framework.py [-h] [-d] [-w WIDTH] [-s HEIGHT] [-sl HEIGHT_LANDSCAPE] framework frameworkNew

enable/disable NavigationBar and change their size.

positional arguments:
framework
frameworkNew

optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-d Disable NavigationBar instead of enabling
-w WIDTH Set NavigationBar-width to WIDTH
-s HEIGHT Set NavigationBar-height to HEIGHT
-sl HEIGHT_LANDSCAPE Set NavigationBar-height to HEIGHT_LANDSCAPE

pure awesome from you, m11kk44..
:good: goodjob..

maybe you should create new thread for it,
maybe in this devs section or theme and apps.
since it could be used for many devices.. :good:

your script needs to be in the news..
it would helps saving much time.

also systemui.apk needs to be edited right?
or not, on your method?

 

[m11kkaa]

If you want to modify the icons, you need to edit systemui.apk, too.
But I can automate this process. BUT: How can I successfully de/re-compile SystemUI? With the apktool used for framework-res.apk I get an error while decompiling resources.

PS: If it could be helpful for multiple devices this should be in general-forums not in defy-forums. I'll make a thread soon.
Edit: Here's the new thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=29246427#post29246427

 

[marhensa]

DONE.. AWESOME..

[FONT="Courier New"]patch-framework.py -w ??.?dip -s ??.?dip -sl ??.?dip framework-res.apk framework-res_edit.apk[/FONT]

if you facing error decompile and recompile SystemUI.apk
use this aapt.exe and apktool.jar (attachment)
i can decompile and recompile apk sucessfuly..

BUT, as long as it's not code editing,
icon replacing is simply just put replace the icon into zip
we don't have to decompile and recompile..

and um... small problem here,
inside new patched framework apk, you forgot to rename the files and folder?
it's:
framework-extractedassets
framework-extractedmeta-inf
framework-extractedres
resources.arsc
framework-extractedandroidmanifest.xml

it should be: assets, meta-inf, res, resources.arsc, androidmanifest.xml right?

Yes, but for me it works.
And: if the names would be wrong like you said you couldn't boot your system after patching. Did it boot? If not maybe there is an problem with windows-pathnames

here on windows, using phyton 2.7 (phyton 2.7 which packed from ArcGIS, a mapping software)

i didn't try to push it yet,
i lost my cable, maybe my friend borrow it.
i'll inform you later.
thank you very much.

 

[m11kkaa]

Okay that shouldn't boot.
I'll try my script on windows to fix this.
