Continuous input gone?

It was working when I first got my phone but it magically disappeared. The option to turn it on is gone & now replaced with T9 trace.Anybody know why & how I can get it back?

This happened to me also after flashing a new Rom. Somehow it fixed itself after I agreed to the terms of use. Does it say this trial is expired?

That's what I use now. I can't figure out why the stock keyboard changed all of the sudden. Even the Google voice typing quit working on it

Notification drop down background change

Been getting in to modding my phone. So far I've been able to change the lockscreens and glodots with my own images.
One thing I miss with paranoid android is not being able to change the notification dropdown image.
I have ninjamorph but have no idea what file I have to change and what size the image has to be. 540px 960px ring a bell?
Even if someone could give me a few pointers would be great.
Thanks

You can't do it that way. It is coming trikes by xml not an image. You have to redirect the xml to an image

Yeah well the way i changed the lock screens. I used someone else's hdpi and xml zip. Changed the png's and edited the XML. Rezipped and ran through zip themer. Worked a treat and I have lots of personalised lock screens. Even if someone could give me a zip that I could play around with?

See that is alot easier then What you want to do. The background is built into the layout folder as a color code and not an image. So you would have to go in and change this in the apk as those tools dont allow editing of that folder.

How do I do that. Do I use apktool?

Anyone any ideas? I want to learn!
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium

Well that's an attitude we could all use. Wanting to learn!
I'm not very sure on how to do it, but it should be this .
Get the framework-res (or sysemui..)
Decompile
Find the XML that points the colors or images to something
The line for the background should have something
<drawable name="notification_header_bg">#FF000000</drawable>
So change the color to your drawables.

Ok. Thank you I'll have a play about and see if I can work it out
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium

Ok I think I've found the file. I will use apk tool tomorrow when I am at a laptop to decompile. So I'll be editing the XML file, but where would I put the image to tie up with it?

Am I getting warmer? Lol. I can see notification_bg.XML but on the next screenshot there doesn't seem to be a .png to fie up with that.

Because the XML links to a color code. You need to change it to a png

Ok here are the changes you will need to make.
For the toggles background you will need to change quick_settings.xml in the layout folder
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.phone.SettingsPanelView android:id="@id/settings_panel" android:background="@drawable/notification_panel_bg" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
For the shade in the notifications you will need to change status_bar_expanded in the same layout folder
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.phone.NotificationPanelView android:id="@id/notification_panel" android:background="@drawable/notification_panel_bg" androidaddingTop="@dimen/notification_panel_padding_top" android:layout_width="0.0dip" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_marginLeft="@dimen/notification_panel_margin_left"
Mind you those are for an AOKP rom. Once you decompile the system ui you will be able to see what your rom uses. Once again you can NOT make this change with ninja morph you will have to decompile the apk to see what it is using.

So let me see if I understand this right.
In the XML file in the layout folder I have to change it from a colour code to a .png file that I have made. And as there is no .png file for this I would have to put this file in the drawable folder to tie up with the XML file?

One last thing. I can't for the life of me find what size I have to make the notification panel in px. Do you have that at hand?

[How-To][Code] AirView Samsung Galaxy S4

I didn't find a Thread with a guide for use the AirView in SGS4 so I did it.
In AndroidManifest.xml
Code:
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
[B] <meta-data android:name="com.sec.android.airview.enable" android:value="true" />
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="com.sec.android.airview.HOVER" />
</intent-filter>[/B]
<activity
android:name="edu.uanl.secondapp.MainActivity"
android:label="@string/app_name" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
[B]<intent-filter>
<action android:name="com.sec.android.airview.HOVER" />
</intent-filter>[/B]
</activity>
</application>
You can use It this way:
Code:
View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_main_dummy, container, false);
TextView dummyTextView = (TextView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.section_label);
dummyTextView.setText("Something Here");
[B] dummyTextView.setOnHoverListener(new View.OnHoverListener()[/B] {
[user=439709]@override[/user]
public boolean onHover(View view, MotionEvent motionEvent) {
switch(motionEvent.getAction()){
case 9: // Enter Hovered
case 10: // Leave Hovered
view.setBackgroundColor(Color.TRANSPARENT);
view.setScaleX((float)1.0);
view.setScaleY((float)1.0);
break;
case 7: // On Hover
view.setBackgroundColor(Color.RED);
view.setScaleX((float)2.0);
view.setScaleY((float)2.0);
break;
}
Log.wtf("Something", "I'm Being Hovered" + motionEvent.getAction());
return false;
}
});
dummyTextView.setHovered(true);
If this thread is repeated, or this is not the place to post it, my apologies I'm a semi-noob on this.
Hope this can help you.

[app] Moto X's Kitkat Dailer

So apparently the moto x dialer app works on the droids running KitKat. So here you go. Just push dialer.apk and dialer.odex to system/priv-app. The the odex is probably not needed but Im using it w/o issues.
One issue is this will not replace the stock droid dialer so you end up with two phone apps. Use the blue one. I'm currently working on a mod to the contacts.apk to fix this.

Just a heads up. This is already posted at least 1 other place.
Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

Yeah I tried this from the other thread its cool but doesn't dial and any calls that come in go to stock dialer I just uninstalled it. If this ever gets working 100% great but not till then.

It works fine if you use the flashable zip. Incoming calls will come through the old dialer but all history, outgoing etc work fine.
Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

I wonder if Verizon didn't want us to have this dialer because they have that caller id they charge you to use if so that is B.S. I hope someone figures out how to get this working 100%

The Verizon moto x has the dialer.. I don't understand why we wouldn't get it.. Unless it was the reason people were have issues with moto x

I own all 3 devices. The Moto X has an updated dialer (as it has a few other things that didn't make it into the Droid lineup's 4.4 build), however the X's dialer lacks the ability to search by nearby places. One of the most sought after features of the new Nexus dialer. The X's dialer is basically a look-alike that they didn't really add any new functionality to. Here is what it should look like with the proper Nexus dialer. Note that it says "nearby places" in the search bar.

Oh wow well that's a B. I didn't realize the moto x dialer is basically just skined. I thought it was legit nexus dialer. Well I'll be renaming the thread now for the sake of accuracy.
Have they had any success on the x with an actual aosp dialer?

Poop
So if I understand correctly the contacts.apk is the app that generates/directs the phone/dialer app icon.
So the question becomes can the contacts app be modified to generate the Google dialer shortcut?
This is the the contacts.apk manifest, would I be correct in thinking this is when the change needs to be made?

Volume boost mod

Looking for flashable volume boost for CM11. I haven't found one that works and editing mixer paths XML has proven to be worthless.

Volume boost of what? Headphones? Speaker?
Editing mixer_paths.xml is the only way to do it. If you already tried something along those lines, you did it wrong.
Sent from my LG-D802 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

I´ve edited the mixer paths with a root explorer, and after reboot the device the audio is improved. Maybe you need to try with different values in:
<path name="speaker">
<ctl name="RX7 Digital Volume" value="70"
and
<path name="headphones">
<ctl name="RX1 Digital Volume" value="58" />
<ctl name="RX2 Digital Volume" value="58" />

Thanks everyone. I'll give it another go.
