Change H to 4G? - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Currently running Glacier AOSP 1.3.0, and am annoyed by the H
Any flashable zip for turning the H to 4G?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda app-developers app

You don't need a flashable zip. Rom already has all the 4g icons you need.
Just extract your systemui, go into res/drawable-hdpi and rename all the 4g icon files you want to use to h. Should look like this.. from this(stat_sys_data_connected_4g.png)
To this(stat_sys_data_connected_h.png)
You need to do this to 4 files. Connected PNG, in PNG, inout PNG and out PNG.
Once you're finished renaming the 4g icons you want, either the green or the blue 4g icons you're going to zip the systemui folder.
Once it finishes zipping the folder, go to the systemui.zip and rename it to systemui.apk. move the new systemui.apk to system, change permission and move to app folder.
Restart your device and you're done. Remember to backup your original systemui.apk.
Looks harder than it what it really is. It's very simple to do this.

Worked for my Glacier (had to put the systemui in the rom I flashed, didn't lose any data) but my Galaxy Nexus didn't like it. It shows up blank on my nexus while my Glacier shows the correct stuff.
Nexus is stock rooted 4.1.1 btw.

Bootanimation

How do i change bootanimation on evil d new 3d rom??
Sent from my Htc vision using XDA App
absolute system app. Its 1.99 but it easily changes bootanimation and fonts. And there are a ton to choose from. Definitely worth the $2.
same as any other pure Sense ROM... either use Root Explorer after ROM has been flashed open system>customize>resource replace bootanimation.zip with the one you want to use, or unzip ROM on your computer look in same folder replace the bootanimation.zip and re-zip and flash
Thanks to the both of u really helped out alot!!!

[Q] mod help for virtuous unity 2.35

I love this ROM but will enjoy it more if it was possible to have stock 4G and battery icons with a transparent pulldown with recent apps. I know that's a lot to ask but if someone can get them all together in one zip for me I will appreciate it much. BTW, I find stock 4G and battery icons, I find transparent pulldown with recent apps but just can't get them to work together. Please plz plz
You shouldve looked in the theme and app section first.
In the link I posted I have a zip of the 4g icons that work with the latest vu. Also a step by step on how to add the the 4g icon. For other mods you can also check the same thread or do your own in uot kitchen. Its how I do it.
You can see from my screenshot. My own 4g icon I extracted to work with vu2.35, no clock in status mod(by jack_r1), then androdian top bar, custom battery and transperant bright silence pulldown all done in uot kitchen.

The easiest way to get all the mods you want is to do them yourself. Uot kitchen is easy to use. Everything you need is already there. The way I do it is going to kitchen and and applying all the mods you want and kitchen will zip them all for you and all you have to do is flash. Then once you flash the zip from kitchen with all mods, do the 4g icon mod. Then you'll have all the mods. You want.

[ICS] Change 'H' Icon to '4g'

Hi, I wasn't sure where to post this, so I'm sorry if it's in the wrong place. I am looking for a mod to change the 'H' icon in the status bar, to the 4G icon.
Yes, I do know that 'H' isn't 4g, but I would like a flashable zip, specifically for ics 4.0, for me to try.
Thanks.

Depends on what rom you are using, one cannot simply make a zip that makes that kind of changes on all ICS roms simply because there are framework differences between the likes of CM7, CM9, AOKP, Sense, etc.
If you have Sense ( I think 3.5 or older ) there was one such mod in the Application subforum.
yes as well as one for cm7, have not seen one for ics or jb but I'm sure if you work hard at it you'll find one/make one

Yeah I've seen the one for cm7, but virtuous g lite has it already. Guess the rom wasn't designed for the U.K as it shows 4g when it should be 'H', which is exactly what I want for myself on Mimicry.
On the CM7 mod, someone talked about changing the System Ui.apk, under system-apps, and replacing the 'H' icons with 4g ones. I wondered if that would be the same for me. If anyone could shed some light on this, it would be great.

I don't know how to create a flashable zip, but here is the modified SystemUI.apk - I think it is specific for Andromadus Mimicry 1.4.0.
Since you seem to be new, here is a little guide to apply the modification:
Before doing anything, make a Nandroid backup, just in case something goes wrong.
0. Download the SystemUI.apk and place it in the root directory of your SD card.
1. Open the Terminal Emulator app.
2. Type su and hit the Enter button to gain root permissions.
3. Type busybox mount -o remount -w /system and hit the Enter button to make the /system partition writable.
4. Type cp -f /sdcard/SystemUI.apk /system/app/ and hit the Enter button to copy the modified file to where it belongs.
5. Type chmod 644 /system/app/SystemUI.apk and hit the Enter button to fix the file's permissions.
6. Reboot and enjoy.

I cannot thank you enough. This worked perfectly, with no issues. Your help has been amazing.
Just one question though. If I change roms (factory reset included) or flash a Andromadus Mimicry update, will I lose the 4G icon? Or is it stuck forever?(which would be good).
Thanks again!

you will loose it, but you see how easy it is to get again, maybe see if you can find someone who will put it in a .zip for you and you could just flash it right after the flash of a new compatible rom

http://uot.dakra.lt/kitchen/ is the kitchen website. I am currently using mimicry, so I guess I will give it a go and see if it works.
Well I just looked at UOT and their icons (at least for me) didn't have any 4G, they all had H

I gotta contribute to this thread with a little note from my post here. Since our devices can't achieve HSPA+ speeds (4G), why do you want to apply that [incorrect] label in the statusbar? Is it purely an aesthetic thing like "hey I know I don't get 4G but LOOK the ICON shows it!!!!! :victory:".
Maybe I don't understand the point/appeal? If I'm on a 4G network I'd want it to say 4G, if I'm on an HS*PA network I'd want H and if I'm on Edge I want E. The whole point of that icon is to correctly convey the actual network connection, but it seems like you guys just want 4G because it "looks better"?
THAT SAID, right now in ICS if you're on HSPA+ (which has been relabeled to 4G) it will still show H, but as I said, our devices don't seem to be HSPA+ compatible, at least according to GSM Arena.

You are exactly right of course. I am only doing this nonsense for my friend, who is yet to join XDA (sad, yes I know). However, I personally think the 4G icon does look better than H. Its personal preference, I feel. By the way, your zip works fine. I have added your zip to my thread, giving u credit. Is that ok.

AOKP ROM usually has this as an option (not sure if it's in there yet--they're still on build 1, officially).
Thanks! Do you know if there is a stand alone hack for it?

Thanks for the link, that was helpful!
How i do it..
you must have root .
Copy the system ui.apk out and save it to your desktop ( do not move it)
open the file in 7 zip... browse to the folder that has the .png files you want to change.. (DO NOT UNZIP OR EXTRACT)
Copy the dpi folder your making changes to the .png files within.. to a new folder .
Edit the .png files.. (you can also edit xml. notepad++ (use caution..)
I use photo shop and paint shop pro to edit the files..
Open the original system ui file up.. browse back to the directory where the folder you copied out is at .. DO NOT UNZIP OR EXTRACT
PAST THE Edited file back into the zip...
push it back to your tablet .
using file manager put it back in the system/app folder where you found it..
YOUR TABLET WILL CRASH WHEN YOU SAVE IT HERE ( THIS IS EXPECTED ..) REBOOT WITH HOLDING THE POWER BUTTON..
YOUR tablet will reboot showing the changes you have made. If you mess up you can adb push the unmodified system ui back and reboot .
This is a very dirty quick how to hope its understandable..
good luck
Thanks for that but I did it using metamorph like the link says.

Ok, here you go - Read everything below first, before you do any of this please.
The usual "I'm not responsible for anything that happens to your phone" statement applies.
First, make sure you flash either the .27 or .33 radio. I chose .27 as it is the most stable for me in my area. You can find the radios here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2087227&page=1
Once you have flashed the radio, then flash the audio fix (using the old LTE radios on stock 4.2.2 kills the in-call audio - this file will fix it, just flash in recovery).
You also need to flash the build.prop fix. Both the audio fix and build.prop fix flashable zips are here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2327199&page=3
Once you have flashed both of those, you're going to need to replace your apns-config.xml file - I have attached the file to use so that you don't have to do the edits (just unzip the file first). In root explorer or ES file explorer (both work fine) navigate to /system/etc and rename the existing apns-config.xml file to apns-config.xml.bak. Then paste the file I attached to this post in the same folder (/system/etc) and rename it to apns-config.xml. Make sure you set the permissions to rw-r--r--
Now comes the crappy part. You have to factory reset your phone. But the good news is, once you do, you have permanent LTE on rooted stock 4.2.2. Yep it's that simple.
Please keep in mind, if you have already modded your build.prop in previous attempts, it's important to delete it and restore your .bak build.prop file if you want to use the flashable zip I linked you to. The flashable zip won't check to see if the mods are already in there, it will just write them in, thus possibly duplicating entries.
If you're build.prop already has these lines added:
telephony.lteOnGsmDevice=1
ro.telephony.default_network=9
ro.ril.def.preferred.network=9
And this line removed:
telephony.lteOnCDMADevice=0
then you don't need to flash the build.prop zip.
Let me know if you have any questions.
I just realized I didn't change the name of the apns file I attached, so you don't need to rename my attachment. Just rename the existing apns file before pasting.

I did everything as stated it worked once I rebooted it went back to h+ waited 20 min to 4 g showed up
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium HD app
I should have mentioned, once you factory reset, you cannot ever go into the apn settings or the #*#*4636*#*# phone menu or it breaks it
Try doing it again and remember to factory reset right after you change the apns file. Before you factory reset go into the #*#*4636*#*# phone menu and set it to LTE/GSM/CDMA, then wait for 4G to show active then FDR
