can anyone mod a ACS rom for me so it can say "Stevie" in the lock screen and notification bar? instead of acs
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=976194
bump.......
there's a couple problems with this. What theme are you using. If your using a theme your gonna have to contact that dev and ask him. If your just using the rom I'm the man to talk to.
if I do this for you then others are going to want it done then it will be time consuming. And I won't be able to work in my other projects. However I wrote a how-to on changing the sprint branding. You can always follow those instructions.
If I have some free time I may try to fit this in.

you need to give the thread some time so people can see it. If no response in 24 hours then bump it. Not in the same time or in a matter of minutes. We don't live on the internet

i tried it the other day but i messed up and i think i would rather wait for whenever you have time to mod it im in no rush i just thought it would be cool
just keep trying until you get it to work, you will feel awesome and you may learn a thing or two about android. there are a pretty limited number of ways to mess up such a small change so just do a little reading and you'll figure it out.

+1 to this. I recently started using a theme that I wanted tweaked in one little way. I posted something in the thread and got no response and so started screwing around with it myself. It took a while (and multiple screw ups) but I eventually got it to do what I wanted. However, I learned a ton in the process that made me come up with new and improved ways I might screw up... I mean improve... my phone.
By the way, I think the key to doing this with confidence is doing a full "nandroid" backup (i.e. a backup in clockwork). As long as you do this before messing with anything on the phone, you can pretty much always restore the backup and be right where you were. I got myself stuck a couple times and this saved me.

When I'm working on mods I zip up the files I edited so I can flash and test the mod. I also create a 2nd zip with the same files but un modified. So if the modified zip breaks things I flash the un modified zip

Strings.xml after you decompile framework-res.apk zz_roaming text you'll see it probably says acs already. Pull the framework res.apk decompile in apk manager, then navigate to projects/framework-res.apk/res/values/strings.xml. Scroll down towards the bottom and search for zz_roaming_. Note in apk manager when you recompile and it asks is this a system app choose y. Then it asks to preserve signature as well as files choose yes thenin apk manager you'll now have a keep folder. Delete the file named resources.arsc and then goto place here for modding folder. You'll see unsigned-framework-res.apk in there rename that to framework-res.

Turn usb debugging on in settings applications development. Hook your usb cable open a command prompt and in the terminal cd to the directory with the modded framework and type adb push framework-res.apk system/framework/ and then hit enter. This requires you have the android sdk installed and the tools in your path if u you have trouble with that then get a theme that works on your rom open the theme with a zip program and delete everything inside the system folder except the folder framework. Next open the framework folder and delete both framework-res.apk and twframework.apk. Next drag and drop your framework-res.apk into that framework folder close the zip and flash

Hi there,
I m thinking of deodexing stock 351 rom. i did apps and framework successfully and flashed them back via zip but after that m stuck on bootloops.
Please someone helpout. i wana learn not go back via nandroid:]
Best way to do this is to download the htc desire kitchen rom maker. It has great options to deox and zip align as well as make a cwm flashable rom....
I tried to do this manually and always ran into issues, with the downloadedable kitchen it works everytime.

LOL, agreed! The thread may however provide some answers the the issues that were encountered.
You do plan to Cook it afterwards right? You aren't just DeOdexing for the sake of DeOdexing? From what I've read there is basically no point to it unless you intend to create your own ROM based on the DeOdexed one. It probably won't hurt anything in a way that you'll notice, but it won't improve anything either.

if you're flashing frameworks you need to make sure the old ones are deleted first and that the correct permissions are set on the files.
I've no idea what you're trying to do with the zips, there's so little information in this thread to actually point out what you've tried to do so far..
if you just want to replace frameworks with deodexed ones (why? odexing is a way of speeding things up, unless you want to try theming) then you also should be deodexing the system/apps as well, and clearing dalvik-cache.
"Apk files have respective odexes that devs use to supposedly save space. Deodexing means you convert it back to a .dex file and put it back inside the apk. This allows you to easily replace files (not having to worry about odexes), but the main point was to deodex services.jar so that you can change all text to different colors (such as the clock color to white) and to deodex services.jar, you need to deodex everything. "
There are huge amounts of tutorials online about deodexing roms if you really want to do it.
if you're using windows then there's a fairly good tool called AutoDEOTool (v 1.02 works fine) but you still need to read the instructions.
I deoxed and zip aligned and I have noticed a differences in speed

I use the kitchen to deox both /system/app and /system/framework.... not sure about your update script because the kitch actually makes that for you so it should be correct

Once a deodexed rom is released it will be easier to test the hotspot mod out. Because not having the phone would require someone else that can Odex the files and test. This would be a pain because you would have to do that for each test. For now I am curious about something though. Is there anyone out there with the S5 that is paying for the hotspot? If so can you configure it and connect to it at least once, if you haven't already, and send me your services.jar and services.odex? You will probably need to be rooted in order to get to the files. Don't worry there won't be any sensitive information in the files.
I tried the mod you posted, same as was done on Note 2. Not sure if it worked or not as the build had some data issues, so couldnt comnect to test. It compiled and booted fine with the line deletion at least. Was easy enough to find
Gettin frustrated with getting the deodexed working to move on. Have some issues ive never seen before. Just Play store, Hangouts and Google Calendar sync FC's. Think its a GmsCore issue

Thank you. Could you Odex your hotspot mod and try it with either your rom or stock to see if it works? If it works on Odex then you know it will work on deodexed once it is ready.
To get the native hotspot working, you need to:
update carriers set type="default,mms,dun" where apn="n.ispsn";
in the following file:
/data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db
This is what worked for me on Sprint North America. Just got it working today, was trying all the known tricks including rebuilding framework-res.apk with no luck. Be advised however I first used a sqlite app from the market and it added a space between mms and dun which did not work. I installed the sqlite3 binary and did that SQL command from adb shell. Can do more of a walk through if needed, let me know.

It's not a big problem. I knew your zip was different. My only point is that Mike published the method of unlocking the hotspot first. So he should have been credited for finding the fix. That's it. You could have kept your zip alive if you wanted to. Although I still believe his install is safer.

Because his zip only does a sql update for the specific change that is required. You're zip replaces the entire db file. Nothing may ever come of that. But if a user had a db file which had different contents than the one you provide they would lose those changes. There is also a very slight possibility that permissions on that file could get corrupted when replacing it. Highly unlikely though. I'd be more concerned about the first possibility.

status 6 means incorrect update script - you have made an error and there is incorrect syntax
I suggest you look at other icon packs and compare updater scripts so you get an understanding on what it should look like
