sorry for my poor english.. i write this guide by request.
this is pretty simple thing..
1. decompile framework-res.apk
- you need apktool.jar 1.4.3 version to decompile ics apk.
download 1.4.3 : http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/downloads/list
download 1.4.2 : http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/downloads/detail?name=apktool1.4.2.tar.bz2&can=1&q=
(if you have problems with 1.4.3, use 1.4.2 instead)
2. open /res/values/bools.xml with a text editor
3. find "config_showNavigationBar" and set to true
4. to turn off capacitive buttons backlight, maybe you need to edit arrays.xml
- it does not work on my nexus s but seem to be working well on some other devices..
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
* 5 [WVGA devices only] it would be better to slightly resize navigation bar height to avoid keyboard overlapping problem (see this post).
(or you have to lower lcd density but that cause app compatibility issues)
: open dimens.xml and find the line "navigation_bar_height".
and you need one more step to compensate buttons sizes.
download : http://www.mediafire.com/?758mnayrlt3dee4
this zip include 4 png files. add those files to SystemUI.apk (/res/drawable-hdpi/) using 7-zip or other program. (replace original PNGs to these files).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. recompile
- you need new aapt.exe from latest platform-tools.
download : http://www.mediafire.com/?0q52u6v8vdkpq1i
7. done
*if you don't know how to modify apk file, read this post first.

Where did you get apktool 1.4.2?

How would I disable the onscrwen keys in twlauncher 4. 5? Cause we already configured the ics keys to be our softkeus?

just put aapt.exe in the same folder as apktool.jar. that's all

can someone please help me with using apktool and decompiling my framework-res?

I'm not having any trouble with decompiling, but after making the necessary changes to bools and array, I can not get it to recompile.
What am I doing wrong here?

apktool d framework-res.apk

Same here, getting the same error when recompiling it -_- 3 people have told me it's because aapt isn't the ICS version but I updated it 3 times and even asked someone to upload and I get that same error.

Yep, i did the same thing with aapt. I triple and quadruple checked that it was the ICS compatible version, but still no dice.
I don't know. I'm still patiently waiting for a proper developer to throw together a version for the Incredible that has the on screen nav buttons since i know next to nothing about this stuff, but seriously, this process looks so simple yet I'm having so much trouble with it.
Even if i did get it to compile, I'd be stuck because adb never wants to push or pull files from my phone.

You can always copy it over and set permissions (although it usually crashes before you can), or put it in an update.zip. The update.zip method is my favorite.

How does that work? Sorry, I'm pretty new to all of this. Do I just zip up the framework apk, name it update.zip, then flash it in CWM? Or is there more to it?
If it's that easy, that would be awesome, if only I could get the apk to compile.
I'm so frustrated with this that I'm about willing to offer a donation to someone who could do it for me, although it would be much more satisfying if I could get it done on my own. Maybe I could give a donation to someone who could successfully walk me through it. The offers out there of anyone wants to take it.

Were you able to get it to work with that?
I found a work around two days ago. I took the customized XML files and put them in a Metamorph zip file. I ran it and it successfully changed framework-res.apk but the navigation buttons still wouldn't show. Now, I don't know much about this, so I'm not sure if doing it that way should have worked, but if it should have, it didn't, which would mean the instructions in the first post are incomplete.
I'm doing this on my Incredible, so maybe the ROM I'm using is missing something else. I have no idea. I've tried it on three different ICS ROMs and it didn't work on any of them.
When I get a chance, I'll try it with the new aapt.

Thanks for that new aapt, it works. It recompiled everything, but the file size is 4mb smaller than the original framework-res.apk. I get nothing but bootloops now. I also compiled with APK Multi Tool which also worked, but with the same results - bootloops.

Would it be possible to enable the soft buttons on a gingerbread ROM?

[HOW TO] Compile/Decompile ICS Apk easily|100% working

We are all here to learn, take from community and give back to community!!!
@Lord ClockaN
Hya guys, after A LOT of requests, I decided to share with the community something that I found really REALLY useful for Dev's but also for other users too that want to mess up with compiling and decompiling process. Usually, non problems at all with that, but since ICS come out, many dev\users are not able to decompile\compile properly many ics apk (not all). This guide will ensure you a good result, 100% working, easy, and fastest way to mess up with ics for theming and resizing purposes, or whatever you want
BIG THX to my friend and Dev teammate @Bichon for this

About Apktooll
Please consider to visit the original thread about this tool, because what I'm explaining here is just 1\10 of the real skill of this tool. You can do basically whatever you want with AutoApktool, themers will love it, Dev's will appreciate it a lot, I'm sure.
Why can't we use Apktool???
Well, you can, but it's more difficult, that's it.
Why do you say "must use 1.4.1 apktool version"??
The reason why is that since 1.4.2 version, apktool generate java code while recompiling process is going on, and this lead to errors that 9/10 makes decompile process fail.
Requirements (Windows environment, mine is Seven 64 bit)
Java (last version)
JDK (last version)
JDR (last version, usually included in JDK or Java)
SDK (last 3.0 version for ICS source code)
Auto_Apktool 2.0.0 (DOWNLOAD THIS ONE NOT OTHERS!!!)
HOW-TO (NOTE: before start, select Apktool version with option 21, YOU MUST CHOOSE 1.4.1 version!!)
1) Download and simply unpack Auto_ApkTool 2.0.0
2)Click on "autoapktoolmain.bat", prompt will open

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
3)put the apk you want to mess up with in "_INPUT_APK"
4) you can chose more than one option to decompile (option 6 is strongly recommended)
5) when option 6 is being selected, drag the apk from _INPUT_APK folder into the windows prompt and click enter
6) A Note window will appear, and will show IF the decompiling process has been done properly. Once you close that window, you will see the decompiled folder in _INPUT_APK folder
7) do your edits (xml, snali, or png, doesn't matter)
8) recompile with option 7 (NOTE: this time you MUST drag all the FOLDER, NOT the apk)
9) Once recompiling finished, open the decompiled folder, go to "dist" folder, and here you got your edited apk
10) you MUST sign the apk with option 10 (NOTE: drag the apk from dist folder to the prompt, then press enter, and in the SAME folder, a signedxxx.apk will appear)
11) Rename the apk, and push it |NOTE: you can push the apk with 62 option or with sdk typing:
Code:
adb remount
adb push xxx.apk system/app
adb reboot
That's it

Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks a milli.

First you must install framework-res.apk first then choose default option to select ur SystemUI.apk.
Then should be work fine....
If still cannot mean that apk files has been edited before !!!!!
Looks like 9png. files was edited...
Is it true that you edit any png files in res/drawable-* folder ?????

I have installed framework-res. I am not edit any file.

U are messin up with 9png mate, as themer who I am, I remember you that those png MUST be fixed with 9png patch...also remember that guys, messing up with png is always safer and cleaner when it's done on the stock apk, which means no xml edits, no smali, whatever! First of all, custom png, second recompile, third smali/xml edits, recompile again, that's the way..

I made no changes to the systemui, I simply decompiled it (which worked fine) and then recompiled it.
Yes, I did apktool install the framework from the same system, before hand.
I have gotten this error everytime on the systemui, no matter which guide or apktool version I use. The framework-res works without a hitch, but the damn systemui is a ***** that has no mercy!
Thank you for any help you can throw my way. Me and a few others on the Prime thread are trying to get a % battery mod done for the Prime, but we need to be able to recompile the SystemUI.apk first.
- Thanks

[MOD][HOWTO] 4 Way Reboot / Clock / Battery / ART-Dalvik ADB Toggle

Important tools to have handy that will be used in these guides:
APKTool
Baksmali / Smali
Example Builds for Stock Odex KOT49H:
Advanced Power Menu
Statusbar Modifications
Advanced Power Menu:
First you will want to copy the entire framework folder from the build you plan to use to a working folder.
After that is done, make sure you have baksmali, smali.jar, and baksmali.jar in the same working folder.
Copy the odex file for the item you want to modify, in this case android.policy.odex into the root of the working folder.
Open up a command prompt or terminal and cd to the working directory then run:
Code:
./baksmali -a 19 -x android.policy.odex -d framework -o policy
Now open up the policy folder that was just created and open all the folders until you get to:
policy/com/android/internal/policy/impl
In this folder, you will want to open GlobalActions.smali
Search for:
Code:
invoke-direct {v1, p0, v2, v3}, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$2;->(Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions;II)V
Right below that, you will want to make sure you have:
Code:
invoke-virtual {v0, v1}, Ljava/util/ArrayList;->add(Ljava/lang/Object;)Z
new-instance v1, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$99;
const v2, 0x108007c
const v3, 0x1040361
invoke-direct {v1, p0, v2, v3}, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$99;->(Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions;II)V
invoke-virtual {v0, v1}, Ljava/util/ArrayList;->add(Ljava/lang/Object;)Z
the next code after this group should now be .line 264
Close and save this file, then open GlobalActions$SinglePressAction.smali
You will see a section that reads:
Code:
# annotations
.annotation system Ldalvik/annotation/EnclosingClass;
value = Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions;
.end annotation
.annotation system Ldalvik/annotation/InnerClass;
accessFlags = 0x40a
name = "SinglePressAction"
.end annotation
Below that, you will want to add:
Code:
# static fields
.field protected static rebootMode:I
.field protected static final rebootOptions:[Ljava/lang/String;
Now skip past the next section:
Code:
# instance fields
.field private final mIcon:Landroid/graphics/drawable/Drawable;
.field private final mIconResId:I
.field private final mMessage:Ljava/lang/CharSequence;
.field private final mMessageResId:I
and add the following section directly under # direct methods:
Code:
.method static constructor ()V
.registers 3
const/4 v0, 0x4
new-array v0, v0, [Ljava/lang/String;
const/4 v1, 0x0
const-string v2, "Reboot"
aput-object v2, v0, v1
const/4 v1, 0x1
const-string v2, "Restart"
aput-object v2, v0, v1
const/4 v1, 0x2
const-string v2, "Bootloader"
aput-object v2, v0, v1
const/4 v1, 0x3
const-string v2, "Recovery"
aput-object v2, v0, v1
sput-object v0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$SinglePressAction;->rebootOptions:[Ljava/lang/String;
return-void
.end method
You can now save and close this file. There are three additional files (attached to the post as GlobalActions.zip) that should also be added to the folder you are currently working in.
You are now ready to package the modification back into a file. Make sure you are still in the working directory in your command prompt or terminal and run:
Code:
java -Xmx1024m -jar smali.jar policy -o classes.dex
Now it is time to use winrar, 7zip, or whatever archive program you have handy to add the new classes.dex to android.policy.jar
Once this has been done, move the file to the device and follow the section for how to odex a file.
Statusbar Modifications:
For this one, you will be modifying the SystemUI.apk directly with apktool. Copy that to the working directory and run:
Code:
./apktool if framework/framework-res.apk
Code:
./apktool decode SystemUI.apk
First, open up the SystemUI/smali/com folder and add the contents of percentage.zip (attached to post), so the new percentage folder is in the same directory as android already was.
Now return to the SystemUI folder and open SystemUI/res/layout/status_bar.xml and search for:
Code:
<com.android.systemui.BatteryMeterView android:id="@id/battery" android:layout_width="10.5dip" android:layout_height="16.0dip" android:layout_marginBottom="0.33000004dip" android:layout_marginStart="4.0dip" />
This is the battery icon. You can keep it or remove it. The placement from the top to the bottom of this file goes from left to right on screen. If you place a battery percentage before the icon in the file, it will be on the left of the icon on your screen. Same as placing it after would be on the right of the icon on screen.
Depending where you decide you want the percentage, paste this code:
Code:
<com.percentage.BatteryText android:textSize="14.0dip" android:gravity="center" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" />
If you want to change the size of the text, replace 14.0dip with the value you want, such as 16.0dip to match the battery height.
To center the clock, first remove the current com.android.systemui.statusbar.policy.Clock line and search for:
Code:
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.phone.IconMerger android:gravity="center_vertical" android:orientation="horizontal" android:id="@id/notificationIcons" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_alignParentStart="true" />
Directly below the </LinearLayout> add:
Code:
<LinearLayout android:gravity="center" android:orientation="horizontal" android:id="@id/clock" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.policy.Clock android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Clock" android:gravity="center" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:singleLine="true" />
</LinearLayout>
This will create a centered layout in the middle of the statusbar that contains the clock.
Now you can close and save this file and return to the command prompt or terminal window and run:
Code:
./apktool build SystemUI
You will find your new SystemUI.apk in the SystemUI/dist directory that was just created.
Don't forget to create an odex file if you came from an odex build, which is the next guide below.
How to Odex a File:
Copy dexopt-wrapper to /system/xbin/ ( One can be found at the Original Tutorial )
Code:
chmod 755 /system/xbin/dexopt-wrapper
Code:
dexopt-wrapper MODIFIED-FILE.*** TEMPORARY-ODEX-FILE.odex /system/framework/core.jar:/system/framework/conscrypt.jar:/system/framework/okhttp.jar:/system/framework/core-junit.jar:/system/framework/bouncycastle.jar:/system/framework/ext.jar:/system/framework/framework.jar:/system/framework/framework2.jar:/system/framework/telephony-common.jar:/system/framework/voip-common.jar:/system/framework/mms-common.jar:/system/framework/android.policy.jar:/system/framework/services.jar:/system/framework/apache-xml.jar:/system/framework/webviewchromium.jar
(The long string of files at the end is everything after export BOOTCLASSPATH in init.rc / init.environ.rc)
Code:
busybox dd if=ORIGINAL-ODEX-FILE.odex of=TEMPORARY-ODEX-FILE.odex bs=1 count=20 skip=52 seek=52 conv=notrunc
Code:
mv TEMPORARY-ODEX-FILE.odex ORIGINAL-ODEX-FILE(NAME).odex
Now place the modified file and new odex file in a flashable zip or directly into the target directory replacing the originals.
Toggling ART and Dalvik from ADB:
Code:
adb pull /data/property/persist.sys.dalvik.vm.lib
open the file and replace the "libart.so" with "libdvm.so" (no quotes) to switch from ART to Dalvik
open the file and replace the "libdvm.so" with "libart.so" (no quotes) to switch from Dalvik to ART
Code:
adb push persist.sys.dalvik.vm.lib /data/property/
Code:
adb shell reboot

Thanks! Works great.

This is what the android community is all about. Thanks mate.

...and I'm spent. Well, I think that covers everything but the DPI modifications. I may or may not get to those later depending if they are already available when I get back. Right now I use a 240 system-wide DPI so they are more or less pointless in my case.

In the battery mod thread you were saying you were busy. Linked directly to the images and your thread. And permission to take stock system files, follow a tutorial, and still give you credit anyway? Seriously? I know you do it for the credit, but I did it for the users.

And? This does not mean that I make no versions.

But only, after someone created the files, which you can use.

See below

Speaking of which... A lot of these ANCIENT modifications are still heavily used so it would be good to have them all rounded up as instructions instead of single use flash files. I think I'll gather up the guides that were used and post those here so next time an update hits people have an option to make it themselves.

It seems the original publisher of the advanced power menu rushed through the mod and released a broken version so that is proof enough that the ones hosted here are rebuilt manually and not cloned.
The builds are available under the example heading

...I really have to explain this again? Someone call an adult, these kids are making a mess all over the brand new thread.

Question... Does this work with ART enable? Specially the 4 way reboot.
Request...Is it possible to make a volume buttons "skip tracks" zip or a guide on how to do it?
Thanks
Edit: OK, I read your explanation in the other thread :thumbup:

Technically it should work if you enable ART AFTER installing the mods. I tried it, but was unable to test because I had Xposed and it locked up my phone. Speaking of, I should add the quick guide to disable ART from ADB.
Well, I found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2071970 so let's see if it works. I have a lot of respect for the people that can actually write smali code (but not those who copy it and flip out like that makes them developers). It looks a lot like when I write Java after not sleeping and functions end up wherever I am when I start writing a chunk.

I'm guessing it's not worth doing in a Windows environment?

They make some visual apktool for windows. It's probably easier. I use a Mac. It's like the outcast since everything has to be ported or modified.

I have a Ubuntu build I can jump on if needed
Did you cover changing the size of the % at all? I'm after the battery % to the left of the icon same size as the clock font and with the % the same size as the number (like cargo's original mod)

Something is up with my app or the forum because half that section vanished. In the XML, you would change the font size from 14 (I think it was?) to 16, 18, whatever for the com.percentage.BatteryText

I change a few things in the bat mod.
Change the bat icon line android:layout_marginStart="4.0dip" to android:layout_marginStart="2.0dip"
and add this at the end of the percent line: android:layout_marginStart="2.0dip"
Works on percent on the left of icon only

Code:
const-string v0, "android.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW"
const/16 v3, 0x18
aput v3, p2, v2
goto :goto_2a
[COLOR="red"] :sswitch_2d
const-string v0, "com.sony.smallapp.permission.SMALLAPP"
goto :goto_2a[/COLOR]
:sswitch_data_42
.sparse-switch
0x7d2 -> :sswitch_3b
0x7d3 -> :sswitch_3b
0x7d5 -> :sswitch_36
0x7d6 -> :sswitch_3b
0x7d7 -> :sswitch_3b
0x7da -> :sswitch_3b
0x7db -> :sswitch_2a
0x7dd -> :sswitch_2a
0x7e7 -> :sswitch_2a
0x7ee -> :sswitch_2a
0x7ef -> :sswitch_2a
0x7f0 -> :sswitch_2a
[COLOR="Red"] 0xbb5 -> :sswitch_2d
0xbb6 -> :sswitch_2d[/COLOR]
.end sparse-switch
.end method
notice that the goto: after "com.sony.smallapp.permission.SMALLAPP" is the same goto as a the goto above :sswitch_2d
and that the :sswitch_2d was not in the origonal method if you already have a :sswitch_2d make it something else like :sswitch_3

Nice Guide.Keep it up!!!

Does it any chance will work without superuser mod...
As stryder ported another system ui which doesn't require superusermod(same thread u linked) n that worked for me
I tried to enable superuser mod
Made necessary changes in services.jar
But problem is phone boots up normally but reboots after every 30-40 sec...

Yes there is a chance. not sure if the Dailer will work properly though. I have added the No SuperUserMod SystemUI to the fixes section, because I notice the same thing on my AICP Build it wouldnt work with the z5 systemui. so I just flashed the SystemUI in the fixes. Mine booted and dailer worked but not properly.
my suggestion is try it. add SuperUserMod anyway even if its not working. then flash the SystemUI Fix.
If you do manage to port it please send me the 4 framework files from the guide and a link to your rom. I want to start putting flashable zips so people dont have to port it themselve they can check if it already ported yet.

Thankyou!!! Everything worked except for Phone App.... had to flash it apart and wipe data

i'm trying all thing but this is my error log

DIRECTV NOW app for Shield TV?

Hi all,
**This is regarding the DirecTV NOW service that just launched 11/30, not the normal satellite DirecTV**
At launch, no app for Android TV yet, just on mobile and tablets. I tried the following sideload methods:
Sideload mobile Android apk
-Only air cursor works and video will not stream. Eventually force closes
Sideload Fire TV stick apk
-wont let you sign in without Amazon app store
A lot of you here are a lot smarter than I am. Any ideas to try? It's a shame they didn't support Android TV at launch.

Does anyone have a gen 2 Fire TV device?

Ok, so I was able to extract the Fire TV .apk file and sideload onto my Nvidia Shield TV. I was able to open it and navigate using the standard Shield remote. The only issue I am having is playing live TV content. Sometimes it loaded fine and other times it gives me an error and telling me to Refresh the content. Seems to be very buggy for Android TV. Here is a link to the extracted .apk file. I would like to see what you guys get trying this out.
uploadfiles.io/52771#.WEGhSyGy1_U.email

Anyone knows if this works under any US VPN outside of USA?
I guess I will try modding this app later to try to make it work on the Shield. Or try the one posted here but I know the IOS app on my iPhone I just can't make it work behind a US VPN, it detects that I'm not in USA with any US VPN connection I try. It gets the info from Location Services.

If a VPN doesn't work, I'm not sure. The app wouldn't stream on my phone because it was rooted. I removed root and voila, streamed fine. So unfortunately that takes some options off the table.

I just tested. I can confirm it no longer asks for Amazon credentials, but it won't let you stream. The app works perfectly, and will even start streaming for a split second, then you get an error 40.
They must do some sort of device check only when attempting to stream because this is the same exact way it behaved when I tried it on my rooted phone (my shield is not rooted).

I can also confirm that it no longer prompts you about the missing Amazon app store. Streaming remains unchanged from the original ported app however, I can only get about 15-25 channels to stream reliably, with the overall majority showing error 40 after working for just a split second. (All the ESPN and Disney channel's seem to stream fine).

This ^^^. They required GPS to stream and that requirement has been removed in the new version. Could very well have been what was tripping us up

..

Thanks for modding the app again. The good news is that you don't have to modify it for lean back, it already appears in the launcher after installation.
The bad news is it still only streams a small handful of the channels, so the newer version of the app didn't solve any of the issues of trying to use it on the shield.
The app functions so well that I am hopeful that they will reach a deal to get the official app to Android TV sooner rather than later. Here's hoping that they can integrate it into the Live Channels app, which is probably what the hold up is.

..

JJ-KwiK which tool or which commands are You using to decompile and recompile the apk?
I keep getting an error when recompiling with apktool after I made my modifications with Notepad++
I usually don't have issues with other apps. That's why I'd like to know what you are using to decompile, recompile and sign the apk
I think we can remove 3 checks if we bypass these checks. If anyone wants to do these and also remove the Amazon Store Check from the latest FireTV version maybe we can get a working version for the Shield.

There is also the check that throws an error if outside USA even behind a VPN. But I'd like to know if bypassing these checks help

Basically if we can patch the app to let it know that the device is secure and not rooted it might work. This is how I patched the AT&T U-Verse app and I can stream with it on the Nvidia Shield Android TV

..

Thanks JJ-KwiK. With that tool and Dex Manager. I was able to do the modifications and recompile the apk. However. I'm still getting error 40. It's still failing the security check

At least we can Google Cast until an official app is released or hacked proper. Would be nice to cast over mobile data though and not use up ISP data.

Is there any word on an official release for an Android TV version of DTV Now? I got the free Apple TV 4 deal but much prefer my Mi Box.

ya i got the free apple tv coming which i know would work well but i really would like to have this on my shield tv sooner than later! Thanks for the work i know i tried for a log time to get amazon videos on the shield

Haven't tried it yet but feedback says it's working on all channels with no buffering.
