Ok I think I'll answer this, but bear with me as it's NOT easy or for the faint of heart. If you read this and you DO NOT feel comfortable I would recommend you not giving this a go.
Before you start ANY of these steps below, MAKE SURE YOU BACKUP YOUR FILES BEFORE REPLACING THEM. I WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE CAUSED FOLLOWING THESE STEPS! You have been warned.
1) Visit the website above and run through the steps to get the battery images you want. For the purposes of this tutorial/howto I am not covering how to change anything else (KISS: Keep It Simple, Stupid).
2) The easiest ones to change are the Version A-I ones, just choose which battery set would work best for you on your phone and click "Next"
3) Choose "Do not include icons" and click next. The icons it is talking about here are the signal, wifi, usb etc notification bar icons and as I mentioned I will not cover how to change those here.
4) Leave "Do not change notification status bar" selected and click next. Again I'm not covering that here.
5) You can choose a different boot anim if you want, they are very easy to upload to your phone and you can figure out where they have to be put yourself with no problems. IMPORTANT: If you do change the boot animation, make sure you choose the correct type of rom you have from the dropdown selection.
6) Upload your existing framework-res.apk (using something like DroidExplorer, navigate to /system/framework and paste it onto your desktop, then upload here). This will update the relevant files in your framework-res.apk automatically. (If you cannot obtain your existing framework-res.apk I cannot guarantee method 2 will work, sorry but feel free to try)
7) Replace your framework-res.apk (via DroidExplorer or your chosen ADB browser) on your phone and reboot. Voila!
This worked for me on shubcraft 2.0 drop mode but obviously I cannot guarantee it will work for everyone. Please remember my warnings above that this is not guranteed.
hello, thanks for your quick help, but it doesn't work for hyperdroid rom V1.7
any idea ?

there is another far more complicated way around it, but it really does take about half an hour to work out.
Basically, you need to get your framework-res.apk and extract it with winrar or something similar (an apk is basically just a zip file) and find the folder called res/drawable-HDPI. this is where all the icons for things like your battery icons live.
Copy and paste the new icons from someone elses framework-res or even one you download from the website above into this folder and replace the drawable-HDPI folder into your framework-res.apk, replace it onto your phone and reboot.
Again, this is a quick description of a much lengthier way of doing it but it does work. Also, my disclaimer in the post I made before still stands, do this AT YOUR OWN RISK and do NOT complain to me if something breaks. If you don't fully understand, don't do anything.
I tried the kitchen method, but I receive a huge error log after uploading the framework apk
is the page currently partly down?

It doesn't seem to work all that well with frameworks from our current modded builds. I've tried it with a rooted desire framework (from my gf's desire) and that worked. Evidently all the work that the devs do on our hd2's make them very different to other android builds. the second method I posted (adding the png's to your existing framework) works perfectly.

This method will not work with the battery icons which shows all 100% increments. This method will only work for the standard battery icons, which only involves like 12 battery icons.
In order to add the 1% increment readings in the battery, it involves modifying xml files to read and associate the correct battery icons at each increment.
can you give a tut how to add the version a manually?
nvm, I got it!
Hi Guys!
Now that finally the devs arrived with some amazing ROMs, I change these ROMs a lot every day. But I experienced some problems because I often do that at work where I don't have adb shell available. So I created an xRecovery zip-file to install Android Terminal Emulator before booting into the ROM the first time.
That gave me the idea to offer you some zip-files with useful (free) applications you perhaps want to have pre-installed on any ROM before booting it.
I also attached two blank zip-files where you can easily add your own apps, perhaps a preferred keyboard in your language or whatever you want to push onto your phone via xRecovery.
If somebody's interested we could turn this into some kind of collection for universally usable xRecovery files.
How to use the blank zip-files:
To use this method, you need to have the app available as an apk-file, of course.
If you have the app already installed on the ROM you're looking to replace, you can just use a root file manager like Root Explorer to copy and paste the apk file from \data\app\ to your SD card.
If you cannot get the apk file, you can request it here or send me a PM and I'll try to prepare the zip-file for you. Don't ask me to do this with paid apps! This whole method is meant to be used with free apps and I will not add or support warez in any form!
Okay, now let's start. As you can see, I attached two blank zip-files: blank_data-app.zip and blank_system-app.zip. Why two of them?
There are basically two locations where you'll want to install your own apk's:
\data\app\ --> contains all non-system-relevant user apps and should be your choice in most cases. If you install here, you can easily uninstall the apps later if you don't need them anymore.
\system\app\ --> contains system-relevant and pre-installed apps such as vending.apk / phonebook.apk / Email.apk / Gmail.apk / Calender.apk / etc.
Only install here if you want to replace one of these apps with a themed one or if you want to force-update market for example! It's not possible to uninstall anything you installed here the usual way! You'll have to use Titanium Backup or another third-party app.
Only overwrite existing apps in this folder if you know what you're doing!
So, just choose where you want to install your app, open (NOT extract!) the corresponding file with a zip-file manager of your choice (I'd recommend 7Zip or WinRAR) and drag the apk-file you want to install into data\app\ (for blank_data-app.zip) or system\app\ (for blank_system-app.zip. pretty obvious, huh? ). Confirm to copy the file there and close the zip file.
That's it. Now you just have to give your zip-file an appropriate name and push it onto your SD card to install it via xRecovery-->install custom zip-->choose custom zip from sdcard.
__________________________________________________
Some comments on the zip-files attached:
- Android_Terminal_Emulator.zip:
This is useful if you installed a new ROM and experience problems like flashing homescreen or no GSM/data connection. In that case, open ATE and type the following:
su (confirm SuperUser rights)
busybox killall servicemanager
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This will restart the phone and hopefully solve your problems. (I know this mini guide seems not to fit here, but perhaps someone reads it before spamming the dev thread with questions that were answered a thousand times )
- JIT_Enabler_v2-zdz.zip:
all KUDOS go to zdzihu. Make sure you visit his thread to always get the latest version of JIT Enabler.
Note that you only need this file on 2.1 ROMs where JIT Enabler isn't pre-enabled! On 2.2+ ROMs JIT is always included.
- New Market V2.2.11.zip:
Make sure to sign into your google account and open market once (accept licence agreement) before you update to the new market. Many people experience problems if they don't do this!
- TitaniumBackup-3.6.7.1.zip:
You can also create this file yourself. If you open TB and tap on Settings-->more... there's an option to create an update.zip
- XDA_app.zip:
Useful for any kind of problems of course
__________________________________________________
So, not much of a collection at the moment, but perhaps there's interest for something like that. If you know something that will come handy to have it preinstalled, just tell me!

i like that point of view! well i only found one for creating a whole update. zip for a rom with android kitchen I can explain some of the basics inside this zip file this evening after work. a zip just for installing apps is created quite easily. it gets more complicated if you have to set permissions and things like that.

good idea!
thanks
Great! thanks a lot for this useful guide, I will use it.
Just one question in the same line like mezo, If I already have a rom zip file and I want to add to this rom the apps, would it be possible? and Could you explain us? or its just copy the files inside the \data\app\ folder?
Thanks again for your help.
Great idea, thanks!

As long as the apps aren't system-relevan, it's as easy as that, yes
For all of you willing to learn more: I'm quite a noob, too, but I'll try to make a tutorial on how to create recovery zip-files as soon as I can.
Won't be today though, because I'll go out to party into my birthday this evening
So long,

You can use the Android Kitchen to create custom zip files, I use the Cygwin method as it makes file management a little easier imo.
Great idea man, a lot of thanks!
1 zip - several apps
Is it possible to create one zip to install several apk's?
Maybe I have a few "stock" apps, the ones that I always need, and want to install all in a single step.
Can this be done or I have to install one by one even using xRecovery?
Thanks!
Great tuto and thank you for sharing

Firstly, the xRecovery depends upon its version of busybox. In the version I use it is 1. 15. 3
So re-install xRecovery(just in case).
Secondly, u don't hv to keep the back key pressed but tap it a few times repeatedly during the screen with "Sony Ericsson" logo.
Hope this helps.

sorry, backup and restore only works with stock se rom and mods based on it (like kx10 or blue sparks,...). it's impossible to install on any 2.2/2. 3 or 2.1 AOSP rom.

hey im having a problem.
I know that you will say "this belong to another thread" but since this way i can trick the thing and install again the system apps like the Package administrator etc, i need to know what to do in mi case with this method:
mi BETA3 was working smooth!
iv been using the BETA3 a long time but some days ago, suddently i couldn't install apps anymore (thouse that are in mi SD or frome the market...not even Applanet...nothing)
The screen shows the "barber shop black and white" bar rolling and rolling and never stop.
Mi USB detection is not working, that means that mi PC is recognazing the phone (it sound like a UYSB is been conected) but never apear the folder of the SD. nto even options of debugging usb etc in the notification bar of the device.
and when i get in Settings> runing aplications, all aplication are in "calculating..." mode. so they say 00 mb. and never stop triying to get the numbers. its so odd.
the other aplication (that came installed with the BETA) works fine.
I have tryed, erasing the firmwares and isntalling them from the beginning and everything worked fine with old firms like 2.0 and 2.1 update1. too!
then i do the root (first z4root, then busybox, then xRecovery) and make xrecovery work. install the beta 3, and again i can't do anything.
i triyed installing the BETA4 but never stop rebooting so i just yield and stick with BETA3.
any idea..plzzz!!! i really don't whon't to use Eclair...it's just so ugly!!
it's not working on mi xRecovery. i put the apps insinde app folder of thwe .zip and put it in a random folder of mi SD, then do >the Recovery > install custom.zip>Choose from SD card>confirm install the selected "blank_data-app.zip".
and it say:
Finding update package.....
opening update package.....
E i asume E means Error!) can't open blablabla/blblabla folder/blank_data-app.zip (bad)
installation Abnorted.
i asume iv done something wrong...!?!?
PS: BTW can somebody sen me the original .apk of FROYO bwecasue i can't find them , to use the system-apps.zip
thanxxx!!!
So, i got fed up with dealing with thumbnail MMS for TMOUS while using MIUI, and i dont believe using a different txt messaging app is a viable solution, thus, i took matters into my own hands and edited the UA in the messaging app to NexusOne.
!!!NEW CHANGES!!!
This uses the N95 UA and Uaprof for carrier compatibility reasons.
The MMS Size has been changed to 120000 per request from relldroid
I tested this on my own phone without any issues.
Based off of 1.12.16, 1.12.9 and the latest stable 2.3.4a
Simply boot into CWRecovery and flash like any other update
Let me know of any issues, and i'll try to help as much as possible
Thank you.
INSTRUCTIONS:
1) Download file for your chosen build
2) Save it to your SDCARD (root dir is the easiest)
3) Boot into CWM Recovery
4) Select "load zip from SDCARD"
5) Select zip file on SDCARD
6) Reboot
-6a) It can be considered safe measure to wipe the cache and Dalvik cache prior to rebooting. No harm no foul
--Alternatively, if you use Rom Manager, you can use that as well. That program works directly with CWM Recovery.
How-To for yourselves
Hard Method;
Req - SystemUI.apk, Framework.apk, MMS.apk (all from the same build, no mismatching) APKManager (google is your friend )
1, install APKManager
2, move SystemUI.apk -> c:\users\*your username here*\APKTool\
3, rename Framework.apk -> 1.apk
4, move 1.apk -? c:\users\*your username here*\APKTool\Framework\
5, move MMS.apk -> ~\apkmanager\place-apk-here-for-editing
6, run apkmanager from the installed directory (instructions of how to run it is with the download)
7, decompile mms.apk
8, within the \projects\ folder, there will be a folder labeled MMS, locate the xml file mms_config
9, edit the string userAgent -> NexusOne (other useagents can also work, NexusOne is a known working one for HD2 + TMOBILE)
10, once edited, compile, hit yes, then yes
11, follow the one screen instructions (it's straight forward)
12, rename the newly created apk unsignedMMS.apk (located in \place-apk-here-for-modding) to MMS.apk
13, place the new MMS.apk into the \system of your phone
14, reboot
Easy method:
Req - latest MMS fix
1, download my latest fix
2, unzip
3, unzip the mms.apk (treating the mms.apk as a zip file)
4, locate mms_config.xml
5, copy to the new mms.apk (again, treating as a zip file
6, move to \system of your phone
7, reboot
Use only the above instructions if you know what you are doing, I take no responsibilities in any damage/issues caused by the provided methods.

Im using JW MIUI 1.4.29 -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1050645
How i went about it is that i put the mms.apk in the root of my sd card using ES File Explorer (which supports system rw mounting) then copied the file into \system\app\, overwriting the original.
If you try to install it as a normal apk, it will reject it, since it's a system app

MIUI is a custom android suit, like how sense is for android. It originally started out as a knock off from the iPhone but evolved into something more unique. Go check it out @ www.miuiandroid.com, they update the rom once a week, every friday
Still a novice here....
How do you flash the size fix with the zip file?
Do I just unzip the file using root explorer?q
Force close
I tried everything even pushed through adb and still not working. :l
This is the 1st ROM I developed/cooked
It is based on official B572G Release so it's Gingerbread 2.3.5
The ROM follows a K.I.S.S philosophy trying to have almost no extra apps installed so you can build your system around your needs
Let's see what changed:
Changes:
1) Changed Default Launcher to Zeam
2) Removed a lot of apps from Huawei and left only the essential ones(install everything else you need from PlayStore or by installing apk files from other roms)
3) Changed Default CPU Governor to SmartAssV2
4) updated hosts file(no more ads) and gps.conf (for europe usage)
5) Added Volume Rocker Wake
6) Unlocked FPS & Root Permissions(of course )
7) Removed some audio files from the media folder to save space
8) Added init.d & build.prop tweaks(some of them may not work,but they don't have any side effect in the system so I left them there on purpose)
9) Changed Camera & Settings Icon to look like ICS (thanks to Pikachukaki for his great guide in replacing .png files in apk files)
10) Patched libsqlite.so
11) HDR function enabled on camera(well this actually is included in number 8 cuz it's a build.prop tweak )
12) Fast Boot Option is removed (again a build.prop tweak)
I have also made some little tricks here and there in the cust.img so make sure before flashing the ROM that you have a working backup and/or a backup of the cust.img
I edited the cust.img and removed all extra apps and module files there,and also changed the default language to english because without this the ROM would boot the 1st time in chinese
If you don't want to flash my cust.img that is in the .zip file simpy delete it from there
If you flashed and you want your old cust.img back simply boot into pink screen and replace it with you cust.img backup
There is no side effect from the cust.img change except that you will lose swype,huawei ime(I prefer the basic android keyboard anyways) and also the Totem Weather Widget
Installation:
Do the following in any order
-------------------------------------------------
Wipe data/factory reset
Advanced->Wipe Dalvik Cache
Mounts & Storage-> Format system
--------------------------------------------------
Now flash the .zip file
Reboot
Enjoy!
Everything is working in this ROM (because it's based on official B572) except TV-OUT of course
Anyway.Tell me what you think of my 1st work on android.
Happy Flashing

Nice ROM. Keep It Up. Post Some Screenshots If You Can.
Thanks.
Screenshoots added!
Note that the screenshoot app and es file explorer that you see in the 2nd image aren't present when you first install the ROM.You have to install them from play store
That's great. thanks for share.
Nice work..you manage to edit the cust.img??nice!!!i was bored to install linux!!
Modding the cust.img wasn't hard actually.
Btw pikachukaki,again thanks a lot for helping with my first updater-script issues!

hmmm. That is a personal opinion. I like cm7 more due to the power widget,screen on/off animation etc
But if someone wants an official huawei gingerbread ROM(official for U8800+, not a port from honor e.g kalo) then this should be a good choice.

Can you fix your Release? (CyanogenMod 7.2 (By Moihack)
And there are no such things:
1. GoogleContactsSyncAdapter
2. GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter
3. Gmail
To put it all in, as you should be?
And post it back here!
Please!
And if you can try to put this App inside if you can of course!!! Sound recorder from MIUI...looks like old tape
Thanks in advance!

- Unzip and copy this file (power_profile.xml) with winRAR to your current framework-res.apk (res/xml)
- Flash your rom again
- wipe cache and dalvik
(decompiling and recompiling not needed !)

If you flash your rom again, the edited framework-res.apk will get overwritten, so what's exactly the point of editing it?
And what does this change exactly do?

You decompress your rom and put that file on framework-res/res/xml with winRAR and you repack your rom again. That's all !
Update : fix radio voltage

This is just plain wrong on so many levels...
1. Don't tinker with an .apk unless you decompiled it. With your way you will inevitable break zipalign, thus slowing everything down.
2. The power_profile.xml you provided is already pre-compiled. Why?
3. You flash the Rom again - This overwrites the changes you made before. Lee me guess, without going back to the original framework you device did not boot? That is because you not only broke zipalign, but also the .apk's signature. So the system refuses to install the vital framework.
I said it before in one of your threads. Be careful on what you upload here, as people usually trust xda and, excuse my language, rubbish like yours is of no use for anyone...
I hope you realize that by now.
So long...

you can verify it by decompiling your new framework-res.apk and compare it with stock one.
just for sharing with people
if you don't like it so it's not for you and don't use it. it's simple

If you upload something that is wrong, than I think it is fair enough if I say something. It seems you find stuff on the internet and just upload it as 'new' here.
Anyway best of luck with your endeavors. I'm out...

who told you that ??? give me the link where you found my work !
i think you are a little bit paranoid. don't use anything from me or talk to the moderator or specialist, he can verify my files !
please leave this thread alone
if someone want to verify. see these two files and compare them

Ok I said I'm out, but you are pushing it...
Do you have any idea what the power_profile.xml actually does?
It provides consumption values to the framework, so that this may properly calculate the battery consumption. Changing values in there won't change anything else then the readings in the battery report or apps that call upon that data.
It will in no way affect the actual energy consumption, so I stand by what I said before.
You provide a not working thing, period!
If you don't believe me read more about it over
here...
Anyway that's it from me, good luck...

u're wrong. it works for me :good:
there are many errors when compiling roms from cyanogenmod and stock rom by sony and samsung and others. see my sound fix thread for example you will see the difference ! cyanogenmod didn't fix that sound problem yet !
http://forum.xda-developers.com/sony-xperia-z1-compact/general/cm11-sound-fix-ultimate-t2861135
And as you can see on stock rom or cm11 give a high value (for radio, BT,GPS, screen-on or cpu idle) will drain battery fast !
compare the two files decompiled !
So what is about with this mod? What are the benefits of using this? Can someone confirm working this? I read this discusion and i dont know its safe or i brick my device?
it really works for me. i never upload that never works or never tested. i got a great battery life after found this solution : two days with heavy usage. believe it or not ! make a backup and test. better you decompile and modify the values like uploaded here. :good:
ok so can you adviced me what i need to do?
im using stsock kk russian second edition 108.
what i need to change or is any option to create flashable zip file to instal it via recovery or i need to push it manually? why i need to flash new firmware after this operation? after flashing i understand that all of my data will erased with all settings and all my file will be cleaned ? i dont udnerstand why it wouldnt works after flashing? maybe you could post some instructions step by step to clean up everything im a little bit scared that i can brick my phone or something.
cheers
I see that it was mentioned before, but it seems it went unheard.
This mod will not work because of the simple reason that the second step overwrites the change!
Flashing the ROM again will remove the modified framework-res.apk file.
You can try and see for yourself. after doing the steps, unpack the apk again and see which power_profiles.xml is there.
I'm pretty sure you'll find the default one.
Also, the file has nothing to do with actual power consumption, as is mentioned in the Android documentation.
I hate to say it but the battery improvement you noticed is just a placebo
If you really want us to believe it works, then at least show us what you got. A screenshot of battery usage and screen time are a good proof

I think he means open the ZIP of your Rom on PC, put that file in and then put the Rom to phone again and flash it over your current Rom.
And yes, a proof would be good
Is there any way to fix/improve battery life on CM11? Z1C with the same usage on stock rom gets over 2.5x longer battery life.

Well, I replaced in the archive file, but how to pack in the APK?
P.S Understood with the help of Root Explorer

you got a bad or an oudated apktool. i don't have any error after decompiling. try it by yourself !

sorry but you must have some basic knowledge on decompiling to make the change. if you don't know what is decomiling/compiling, juste take the file and put it like in OP. thanx

Yes, but it was very simple) I just renamed the Root Explorer in zip archive, there has replaced the file, and then simply copied the zip on the apk, it works)
but how does it affect the battery, I still do not understand
