[DEV][MODDING] CRT, Airview, 4-way reboot, ink effect, phone, sms..etc [9/Dec/2013]

[Spannaa]

Can anyone please help me change the way my phone shows the current Date in the Notification bar?

PS: I think its in SystemUI.apk.. Maybe some smali files needs to be edited... like DateView.smali or R$string.smali ot some other smali file perhaps I did do some "editing" here and there but that didn't help me either.. And here's a picture to make this look more clear:

(I know that this is not the proper place to post my request and I'm sorry for that)​

On my S3/NeatROM/4.3 this is set in:

SystemUI.apk\res\values\strings.xml

The line to edit depends on what date format you have set on your phone.

It ought to be either

    <string name="status_bar_date_format_day_month">" 
EEE, d MMMM"</string>

or

    <string name="status_bar_date_format_month_day">" 
EEE, MMMM d"</string>

Not sure if you'll get a blank first line like this though - if you don't, try adding \n (new line) on the top line instead of the single space.

The style is set in SystemUI.apk\res\values\styles.xml
<style name="TextAppearance.StatusBar.Expanded.Date"...

Of course, it may be completely different on your device and setup...

Thanks for your reply mate.. I did a little more editing and this is what I got:

Now all I have to do is get rid of the "day of the week" on the first line... And sorry, I didn't understand what you wrote towards the end:

Do you have

EEE, d MMMM"</string>

If so, change it to

<string name="status_bar_date_format_day_month">" 
EEE, d MMMM"</string>

and the \n thing was for if this didn't put the date on the bottom line of the two

<string name="status_bar_date_format_day_month">"\n 
EEE, d MMMM"</string>

Values-sw359dp-land-xxhdpi not exist on note3.. no values for landscape mode. Adding this from mega 5.8 (6×4) app drawer and mod 4x6 portrait... using compatible mega 5.8 accuweather force auto rotate works with minor bug.. test on note2 with note3 pack.. now using it on g7102.. G7102 already have sw359dp-land but need to force also coz no rotation config.

Random from SM-N9005 + SM-G7102 + G34R

On 4.3 my note3 has the sw359dp. Now on 4.4 they changed it to sw360dp.
I would assume I can't just add the old value folder and it work.
In the sw360dp integers I added the config line needed. Then added the line also I'm the androidmanifest.xml and signed it. But it still didn't rotate. I'm a bit lost as where else to look. I've diffed the files out an the lines needed are there

I'm still using note3 with 4.3 MJ7. Note sure on kitkatt. Does it has Folder "Values-sw360dp-land"?

That's the problem, I don't have it... These are the only ones I've got in my String.xml file:

<string name="quickpanel_month_day_year">E, MMM d</string>
<string name="quickpanel_day_month_year">E, d MMM</string>
<string name="quickpanel_year_month_day">yyyy MMMM d</string>

It sure is different in different versions of Android / TouchWiz UI

In systemUI.
Status_bar_expanded_header.xml it could start with tw

I'm not at my pc right now to tell you the line exactly.

It's set up in fairly the way it's displayed on your phone. There will be lines there that display and control what content is where. I've moved stuff around a lot.

Sometimes you can simply remove lines. Doing it this way can at times break the ui, so make a flashable backup.
you can set it to ("invisible").
Find its name and in dimens.xml set height to 0.0px
Or in styles make it transparent using the hex code.

go to tw_status_bar_expanded_header, now search this

com.android.systemui.statusbar.policy.DateView

then, add this android:singleLine="true" before />

I did that (last night) but this removes the second line.. not the first one..

Hey guys hows it been?

I have a question that im hoping someone can answer. @majdinj has it listed to edit enable the launcher rotation. not smart rotation. but force rotation by editing the integers.xml on the SecLauncher.

Its editing the line

<integer name="config_screenOrientation">1</integer>

Is this something that is inherent to touchwiz? is there smali code that its attached too? What im asking is what makes this reference line work?

I know im on my fancypants note 3 but i cant find anything that relates to it and ive looked through all of my note 2 files where this worked.

My note 3 has seclauncher4 and it doesnt have that line. i tried adding it but that didnt change it either?

Long press menu button to kill app
[/hide]

Hi, I was successfully able to port the function to my phone (SG Young S6312; JB 4.1.2).
But I want to use the back key, instead of menu key.
I did try @Mirko ddd 's port(both methods), but both times it resulted in bootloop (http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...-to-kill-tw-roms-updated-25-nov-2012-t1969499).
Could you please guide me how i can switch the function to back key? (My phone does not support multiwindow, but the codes are present)

Thanks.

Of course you can try. I will say no matter what version of touchwiz your on, unless it's the exact version in here its going to be different.
Just takes time an practice. Make backups!

Hi! First, sorry my english and my very limited skills at coding!

I'm on Neatrom 4.8 lite (4.1.2) and I wanna reduce the original number of options at reboot menu from (reboot, hot boot, download, recovery) to just (reboot, recovery).
I've decompiled & edited GlobalActions$SinglePressAction.smali inside android.policy.jar from:

# direct methods
.method static constructor <clinit>()V
    .locals 3

    const/4 v0, 0x4

    new-array v0, v0, [Ljava/lang/String;

    const/4 v1, 0x0

    const-string v2, "Reboot"

    aput-object v2, v0, v1

    const/4 v1, 0x1

    const-string v2, "Hot Boot"

    aput-object v2, v0, v1

    const/4 v1, 0x2

    const-string v2, "Download"

    aput-object v2, v0, v1

    const/4 v1, 0x3

    const-string v2, "Recovery"

    aput-object v2, v0, v1

    sput-object v0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$SinglePressAction;->rebootOptions:[Ljava/lang/String;

    return-void
.end method

and did this:

.method static constructor <clinit>()V
    .locals 3

    const/4 v0, 0x[COLOR="Red"][B]2[/B][/COLOR]

    new-array v0, v0, [Ljava/lang/String;

    const/4 v1, 0x0

    const-string v2, "Reboot"

    aput-object v2, v0, v1

    [STRIKE]const/4 v1, 0x1[/STRIKE]

    [STRIKE]const-string v2, "Hot Boot"[/STRIKE]

    [STRIKE]aput-object v2, v0, v1[/STRIKE]

    [STRIKE]const/4 v1, 0x2[/STRIKE]

    [STRIKE]const-string v2, "Download"[/STRIKE]

    [STRIKE]aput-object v2, v0, v1[/STRIKE]

    const/4 v1, 0x[COLOR="red"][B]1[/B][/COLOR]

    const-string v2, "Recovery"

    aput-object v2, v0, v1

    sput-object v0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$SinglePressAction;->rebootOptions:[Ljava/lang/String;

    return-void
.end method

I've got the menu with only those two options, but when I select "Recovery" it performs a "hot boot" instead.
Which is the proper way for doing this?

You posted this in another thread but ignored the reply. You should get a log. Whenever you ask questions you should accompany with a log. Then people can explain what its telling you and next time you may be able to fix it yourself

I'm sorry, but the way you answered I thought that I would have to analize the log all by myself (have no knowledge to do this).
I'll get those logs and post. Thanks.
