Ok guys i've managed to successfully install the LiveWallpapers.apk from the NeXus dump and also the MagicSmokeWallpaper.apk on the G1 on android 2.1. problem is that I can't get the LiveWallpaperPicker.apk to install in order to use live wallpapers. reason being is because it isn't being deodexed properly.. I used the deo-all tool and it de-dexes the .apk but i see that it throws an error during the process and i can't find out what it is since the terminal quits to quickly for me to do so. i sign the .apk and install, but throws the error "dexopt". so my theory is its not properly being de-dexed.. once I get this solved i'll also have the new launcher2.apk, gallery3d.apk, and visualization wallpapers.apk able to be installed.
any help??
bump this get this poppin
I liked to see those apps working as well...
Major progress, so thanks to a cpl devs who helped out (miketaylor, djengizz) i've been able to install the livepaperpicker.apk and the prompt to use live wallpaper shows up now.
but it fc's. reason being is because for some odd reason when it gets deodexed the mainclass in the classes.dex gets deleted and so the activity can't be read and it isn't initialized by dalvik. all we would need is to be re-compile the classes.dex back with the mainclass and in theory it should work.. but that's where the problem lays. smali isn't being so nice and throws bunch of errors.
ive heard talk about these wallpapers. what exactly is so special about them?

From what i've seen they allow the wallpapers to be animated, so for example, you can have a wallpaper that has different weather effects, or a pic of the ocean moving etc.
I cant wait until this is working on the Manup 1.0.1 rom.
good luck guys, this would be amazing.
update: there's just 1 issue holding this back from happenning afaik, once we get this worked out it should be a go.

Thanks for your feedback
Hope you can tune the app soon!
Maybe something is wrong with the app that you been trying to deodex. Have you tryed downloading another nexus dump from a different source and deodexing those apps? Just a suggestion in case you didnt think about it just trying to help!
i am trying to install this on my droid with 2.1.
You need to move over some of the libraries from 2.1 or else it will not work.

ok like what libs??.. my main issue right now is when de-odexing the apk, it leaves out the mainclass activity, so it cannot be initialized by dalvik and throws a fc. I've got it installed however and attempts to intialize when prompted

Any Progress on this...ill be a beta tester if you need any
this is one of the coolest features of 2.1 to be honest...the eye candy factor is amazing. Seems like progress is being made though...you think it will be done soon? want it on my mt3g soon =D
guys, I have everything I need to get this working, it's just I still have the 1 problem that is totally hindering this. i'ved asked for help to somebody but they haven't responded back, although it's not something that me and djengizz haven't tried already. at this point, only hope we have is getting an un-odexed dump, OR jf updating the smali tools that are throwing the errors that we get. believe me, if u guys can't cait to have this, imagine how i feel having everything set and ready to go with only 1 thing holding it back, especially since I was basically the first 1 to start up on this mod before anyone else.
Sucks I cant do anything to help...im just sitting down while you do all the work so I can watch my wallpaper move
sounds like your really trying hope you get this out soon...you'll be my hero for sure.
basically, the main problem is in smali... I have all the smali files and try re-assembling but smali just throws loads of erros and doesn't make the classes.dex we need to get this up and running.
Hi All
I have the most recent version of Oxygen which includes a "theme picker" app.
Similar to the one found in the HD ROM's it gives the opportunity to change the entire system theme, without flashing a zip. Which is good news
However, I have been trawling the internet trying to figure out how to create the .apk needed to create my own themes, failing miserably.
Could someone with the required knowledge post a tutorial maybe? Or a link to where the info is so that I can do my own research?
Thanks
i've not installed the test rom so cant check, but does it come with any theme.apk's pre-installed?
if so i'd start by pulling them apart and looking at the .xml and images and change them from there.

Do you know I didn't even think of that
I shall do so and see what I can come up with
Well I downloaded the Android SDK and all the tools required, then I installed eclipse and started a tutorial on how to build an app - as I assumed this is what I will need to do... but then my brain started to hurt and I needed sleep!
I am a fan of Home Base but I have yet to successfully install the "Blue-Chronic" version and have the theme come active. When I look at the preferences for twlauncher it says the active theme is none and there are none to be loaded from the sdcard. Any help would be appreciated as I have done searches but have not been able to find evidence that anyone else has had this issue so I figure this is some kind of Noob mistake on my part.
bugly...
Hi all.
I'm working on a custom ROM for the Nexus 10 based on the latest 4.2.1 build.
It's almost finished, but I'm struggling with a few things and though someone might be able to offer some assistance.
1: I'm trying to add the advanced power menu like is found in some other ROMs for the N10, but am hitting dead ends everywhere. I've found a few guides online but none seem to be relevant to this device. My ROM is de-odexed. I have decompiled the framework-res.apk file but can't find any clues.
2: I'm trying to disable OTA updates and hide the "System Update" option from the "About Tablet" menu, but can't seem to figure it out.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, I know both are possible as I have seem both working in other ROMs, but I don't want to rip off someone else's work.
Cheers,
Will
With some help from a fellow forum member I was able to figure out how to remove the "System Update" button from the About Tablet menu.
I modified the device_info_settings.xml inside the settings.apk file and recompiled it, then re-cooked the rom and flashed it and it worked perfectly.
Now I just need to find where the updater.apk or equivilant is hiding!
In the meantime I cooked in fotakiller.apk which seems to do the trick.
Cheers,
Will
Re: new "developer's edition" N910V ROM compatability
From the few ROMs I've tried to flash so far, I've gotten a lot of error 7s in TWRP
As far as I can tell from some googling, this means that the updater-script in the ROM isn't allowing it to be installed on the device because it's not one of the ones in it's approved list based on some prop file somewhere
I think the fix to this is to edit the updater-script file by making it a .txt doc, deleting some amount of lines after the "assert," and changing it back to a file before putting it back into the ROM... so I'm trying to learn enough about coding to find out where exactly I should stop the deletion at. Or, alternatively, what I'd have to add.
It's also possible that I'm totally wrong and I'm getting this error for another reason entirely.
If anyone knows what they're doing here, I'd definitely be open to suggestions. If this is what the problem is, I imagine it won't be hard for devs to edit though.
