[MOD][KE7] Gingerbread Stock 1% Battery - May 22nd

[chalid]

Opening this new thread, because the other one got way too crowded with many different files and modifications.

It's only a small mod and is based on pendos gingerbread battery modification, which he posted here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13659496&postcount=71

Thanks for providing them.

So this is basically a stock-battery-indicator with the percentage numbers added and the charging animation being smoother. No CRT effect, no other icons changed.

Note: THIS IS FOR KE7 ONLY!
Note 2: Backup the old file and activate USB-Debugging. Just in case ...


Install instructions
with ADB:

adb remount
adb shell stop
adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/
adb shell chmod 644 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
adb shell start

with root explorer:

1. copy new framework-res.apk to /system/
2. change file permissions to rw-r--r-- (should be the same as for all files in system/framework -> check it!)
3. move new framework-res.apk to /system/framework/ and replace the old one
4. reboot

Copy your old framework-res.apk before doing anything, so you can go back if something goes wrong. You might encounter 2 or 3 force closes when replacing the framework. Click them away, finish the process (if you havn't already) and reboot the device. Everything should be fine from there on.

How to install it???
I run it from "Root Explorer" and it says "application not installed"...
Do i have to copy it over the original "framework-res"???

Great thread, the other one "Greener SystemUI.apk" got way too messy. This could be a lot easier thread to look out for, given that people keep this strictly for the battery mods.

Any chance we could get a step by step guide for installing these mods in the first post?

I use Root Explorer to do all of this. Make sure you give yourself R/W to /system/framework & don't use the " "'s.

1. Copy Chalid's file to MicroSD card (you don't have to copy to your MicroSD, you can copy to sdcard if you want)
2. go to /system/framework & rename "framework-res.apk" to "framework-res.apk.old" (don't panic if you get some FC for some running apps)
3. go to /sdcard/eternal_sd & move "framework-res.apk" to /system/framework (don't panic if you get some FC's .......)
4. reboot
5. enjoy

remember to change the permission's to mimic the original "framework-res.apk".

Hi, worked for me but lost all my contacts. It seems that this process removes the Google sync account. After re-syncing all is well. Thanks!

Can this also been made for KE2?

 

[sjaanjean]

I wanted to try pendos tutorial using adb on my pc:

adb remount
adb shell stop
adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/
adb shell start

I've already copied my original framework-res.apk to sd card as backup. When I type adb devices it gives my serial number as expected, but when I type in adb remount it says operation not permitted.

I've already flashed ke7 and rooted using chainfires kernel which is all working without any problems. Any suggestions?

Without a valid framework-res.apk in /system/framework/, even for a couple of seconds you spend renaming the files, the google account syncs will be deleted. So better replace the file right from the beginning and backing up the old before that, instead of renaming it.

1) I suggest renaming der new one in .new first.
2) copy to /system/framework.
3) check/change permissions of .new
4) rename old one in .old
5) rename .new

that way, the google account information will be deleted.

(I FORGOT to copy the new framework-res.apk to /system/framework )

What can I do now??? Can someone please help me out? Thx
