[MOD] Battery mods repository thread

[kalpik]

Hi Guys!

I think we need a central repository for all the mods scattered around various firmware threads!

I was thinking we should keep various versions of mods and the original framework-res.apk in this thread, so that everything is in one place!

I will also take requests for making various versions of mods in this thread. Others are welcome to chip in and ill link the mods you made in this post.

Credits go to Fightspit (for the fightspit mod), and various other mod makers (mentioned below). Special shout out to Tayutama for teaching me how to make these mods.

The requests should be in the following format:

Firmware version: I9000xxJMx (full version)
Mod requested: Version a/b/c/d/e
And you need to attach the original framework-res.apk (zipped)

Versions that can be made:

Version A:

Version B:

Version C:

Version D:

Version E:

Version F:

Froyo

Instructions:

If you have 2e Recovery on froyo, you can just rename the zip to update.zip and flash via 2e recovery or clockworkmod. Else:

Manual Method 1:
Download desired version.
Extract framework-res.apk from the downloaded file.
Type the following in a command window: adb push framework-res.apk /sdcard/framework-res.apk
Type: adb shell
Type: su
Type: rm /system/framework/framework-res.apk
Type: cp /sdcard/framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk
Type: sync
Type: reboot

Manual Method 2 (recommended):
- Extract framework-res.apk from the downloaded file.
- Open root explorer, and copy the framework-res.apk (extranced above) to /system/framework/ chose yes for overwrite.
- Things may start force closing, but its normal. Wait for a minute, and then reboot phone.

Automated (don't use it unless you know what you're doing. Known to cause problems):
Link: http://www.mediafire.com/?wuzy9iss3k43v4h
Download this tool.
Download desired file from OP post.
Extract the tool.
Extract framework-res.apk from the downloaded file and copy it into the extracted tool dir.
Run Change Framework.bat
Accept the Superuser Permission prompt on the phone.
The script will reboot when it's done

Minor bug... You will need to set your wallpaper and google accounts again

This tool also makes a backup of the old framework-res.apk. It gets saved on /sdcard as framework-res.apk.bak

Disclaimer: I (or any other modder) will not be able to test each and every version of the MOD I, or anyone else makes, so we will not be held responsible if the mod doesn't work, or if your phone doesn't boot. Though the max you will have to do is to reflash firmware using odin. Please keep a current backup of you apps/data and the original framework-res.apk before flashing

P.S.: For people looking for how to do this themselves, have a look here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9318973&postcount=1290 (UPDATED, now very easy)

Don't forget to share what you build

 

[mekwall]

Good idea!

There's a similar thread in the Captivate forum, but it's not maintained anymore... Perhaps you could base your thread on it?

That's the idea! Ill keep making minor edits

 

[Tayutama]

Not a bad idea...

Here is the link to all 4 versions i made for I9000XWJM6: http://www.mediafire.com/?w7r87i531r5bh

You can also get the C version for I9000JPJG8 in the same folder since i made a main folder for Battery Mods and then a folder for each firmware... Ill make the other 3 versions later today

Thanks! Added to the first page

 

[mystifiyer]

Can check if any of these versions are compatible with JM5?

Or is it that a specific version must be made for each firmware release?

Thanks

 

[kalpik]

Specific version needs to be made for each firmware.

 

[Tayutama]

Specific version needs to be made for each firmware.

Not true

If you look at the Captivate thread you are linking to you can see some modded versions that works for more then 1 firmware

 

[kalpik]

Not true

But that's like shooting in the dark! Versions may or may not be interchangable! So why take a chance? It hardly takes 5 minutes to make a mod

I've tried this vesion from the Captivate forum and it restarted the UI every time I lose a % on the battery! With this here everything is OK!

Using I9000XFJM6 Version C with the same ROM Version

 

[Orcie]

Is it really that hard to generate a new apk with the new icons embedded in them. Can someone explain the procedure?

 

[kalpik]

Ok, a small tutorial for people trying to do this on their own:

1. Copy framework-res.apk
2. Decompile it with APK Manager 4.8
3. Paste the source files from the original thread, paste the xml files in drawable and the png files in drawable-hdpi (for eclair) or drawable-hdpi-v4 (for froyo).
4. Compile the apk
5. Copy META-INF folder and AndroidManifest.xml from the original APK to the modded one

That's it!

Could someone make request for Canadian jh2 version d. Got the version c and did not backup framework so cannot make request myself.

tbh it shouldn't be a problem to use your modded version as we only replace the image files in it when it already is modded.

 

[kalpik]

Yep.. Should be easy! Post your apk
