Best is to use XML Notepad from Microsoft. Its free & great, makes it very easy to edit cpr files. Google for it.

Start menu 4x4 with big icons:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Also did a different rounded-hexagone-select image.
Just replace the files on your Windows folder with the attached zip files.

thank you
I ask that questions ARE NOT ANSWERED in this section.

[Q] Need help with making a dialog transparent.

Can someone post a style for a dialog that is 100% transparent? (Any API version)
I've found many but not a single one works
Definitely missing something.
Style:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
<style name="Transparent" parent="@android:style/Theme.Dialog">
<item name="android:windowFrame">@null</item>
<item name="android:windowContentOverlay">@null</item>
<item name="android:windowIsTranslucent">true</item>
<item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>
<item name="android:windowIsFloating">true</item>
<item name="android:backgroundDimEnabled">false</item>
<item name="android:textColor">@color/white</item>
<item name="android:windowAnimationStyle">@android:style/Animation.Dialog</item>
<item name="android:windowBackground">@drawable/transparent_bg</item>
</style>
</resources>
Tried these without success:
Instead of the transparent image (@drawable/transparent_bg) in the style, using:
<item name="android:windowBackground">@android:color/transparent</item>
Even tried defining a transparent color entry and using it.
removing "parent="@android:style/Theme.Dialog"" from the style tag
Programatically calling setTheme(R.style.Transparent); from the activity's oncreate() before creating the dialog.
Manifest:
<application android:theme="@style/Transparent" ....>
Creating the Dialog:
The main activity creates and shows the dialog in its onCreate()
Here is what the same code looks like on Froyo and Gingerbread (emulator images but accurate on my Nexus)
Gingerbread (black dialog bg):
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Froyo (grey dialog bg):
thanks.

How to: Add 2.5GHZ/5GHZ preferred band toggle to Settings/Wifi.

Here is how to add 2.5GHZ/5GHZ toggle to Wifi Settings:
NOTE: You need root to do this
1. Open up others.xml located @ /system/csc
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<SamsungMobileFeauture>
<Version>ED002</Version>
<Country>GERMANY</Country>
<CountryISO>DE</CountryISO>
<SalesCode>DBT</SalesCode>
<FeatureSet>
<CscFeature_Web_DisableMostVisitedHomepage>TRUE</CscFeature_Web_DisableMostVisitedHomepage>
<CscFeature_Sip_DisableAutoCorrection>TRUE</CscFeature_Sip_DisableAutoCorrection>
<!-- Launcher -->
<CscFeature_Launcher_TotalPageCount>5</CscFeature_Launcher_TotalPageCount>
<CscFeature_Launcher_DefaultPageNumber>2</CscFeature_Launcher_DefaultPageNumber>
</FeatureSet></SamsungMobileFeauture>
2. Add the line on a new line "<CscFeature_Wifi_PreferredBand>true</CscFeature_Wifi_PreferredBand>" inside the FeatureSet brackets.
3. Should look like this:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<SamsungMobileFeauture>
<Version>ED002</Version>
<Country>GERMANY</Country>
<CountryISO>DE</CountryISO>
<SalesCode>DBT</SalesCode>
<FeatureSet>
<CscFeature_Web_DisableMostVisitedHomepage>TRUE</CscFeature_Web_DisableMostVisitedHomepage>
<CscFeature_Sip_DisableAutoCorrection>TRUE</CscFeature_Sip_DisableAutoCorrection>
<!-- Launcher -->
<CscFeature_Launcher_TotalPageCount>5</CscFeature_Launcher_TotalPageCount>
<CscFeature_Launcher_DefaultPageNumber>2</CscFeature_Launcher_DefaultPageNumber>
<CscFeature_Wifi_PreferredBand>true</CscFeature_Wifi_PreferredBand>
</FeatureSet></SamsungMobileFeauture>
4. Now you should have toggle!

I had stumbled upon this randomly so thought I share but I dont have a 5ghz router to test it.

wow...this hack is way too simple...I wonder if it works...I will check and see...
edit: confirming this works, but router is dual-band 2.4Ghz and 5GHz...

Write privileges to SDcard in Marshmallow

Im have:
HTC One M9Plus
Android Marshmallow
Root superSu 2.78
S-OFF
and installed "Marshmallow SD Fix - Root"
Titanium Backup have privileges for write to SDcard in Marshmallow SD Fix - Root, but Titanium Backup can not create files on the memory card
This instruction I checked, too, does not work
instruction:
Go to Local > / Device > system > etc > permissions > and open platform.xml as text in “ES Note Editor”.
Find the following line:
“android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE” permission
Change it from :
<permission name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" >
<group gid="sdcard_r" />
<group gid="sdcard_rw" />
</permission>
to :
<permission name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" >
<group gid="sdcard_r" />
<group gid="sdcard_rw" />
<group gid="media_rw" />
</permission>
Do you know how to give privileges to write to the marshmallows?

Have you check the "Mount namespace separation" in the setting of SuperSU?
