Hiding the System Bar - Gen9, Gen10 General

So I am trying to figure out a way to hide the main menu bar (from SystemUI) on my G9 101. I am running ICS 4.0.4 rooted.
I noticed that the startup wizard is able to control the availablity of the home button and recent apps button. The back button is still visible, but it seems like the wizard takes control of what it does.
So I disasembled settings.apk and settings.odex to try and figure out how this is done. It seems like a call to:
Code:
view.setSystemUiVisibility(20905984);
is the code that makes this work. I inserted that into my application, but did not get the same result. Any body have any ideas as to how I can make this work in my application? Is there a way to grant the same capabilities to my code that the settings.apk has? Do I need to install my application in some other location?
Any other ideas how I can use the setup wizard as some way to launch my application without having the systemui elements?
Thanks!

Now that the source is out - does this mean I (or someone) will be able to do this more easily?
Thanks

ICS source code is out for quite some time. BUT this doesn't include Archos specific changes (like 3G stick support etc)

[ADDON PACK][12/18/11] Bulletproof MIUI Pack v1.2 :: OC/Optimized/Extras!

Bulletproof MIUI Addon Pack
Due to a lack of time, I've discontinued weekly updates to Bulletproof MIUI. I didn't want to leave anyone behind, so I believe I've come up with the next-best-solution.
The Bulletproof addon pack is designed to be flashed directly over the weekly translated MIUI builds (e.g. MIUI.us/MIUIandroid.com, etc). The pack will enable all of the features listed below, and should make your phone run significantly better.
The addon pack allows you to update as soon as the translations are available, so you're not stuck waiting on me to update every week! This pack should (in theory) work on pretty much any G2/DZ ROM, but your milage may vary. Please always make a backup before flashing, just in case.
Features
- /system converted to ext4 file system.
- Virtuous OC Daemon (Installing SetCPU or CPU Tuner will automatically disable the daemon.)
- Tsubus' ILWT kernel
- EFS wiped on flash to prevent GPS issues.
- Wifi Calling conditionally installed for T-Mobile US users, uninstalled otherwise.
- Modified SD card read cache (set to 4096)
- Applications Zipaligned on boot (skipped if already ZA'd)
- App Widget Picker added for users who prefer to use alternative launchers.
- CyanogenMod/Galaxy Nexus ringtones/notification/alarm tones
- OC/UV Beater bundled to control/configure OC
- Themed keyboard that's much more MIUI-like
Installation Instructions:
- Install the MIUI ROM of your choice (MIUI.us/MIUIAndroid.com recommended)
- Flash the Addon pack
- Configure OC settings via the OC/UV Beater application
Whenever you update your MIUI each week (either via OTA or by manually downloading/flashing), simply flash the pack afterwards and you're all set!

MIUI Resources and Addons
1. Long press on the icon in Toggles to launch the settings for that icon.
When you pull down the notification bar, you will see the Toggle settings for plenty of options (such as WIFI, volume, backlight etc). Long press on any icon in the Toggle mode will launch the setting for that icon.
2. Built-in Screen Capture function
One of the lacking feature in Android is the lack of a built-in screen capture feature (like in iPhone). Not anymore. With MIUI, you can press the “Menu” key and “Volume Down” key at the same time to capture a screenshot. The printed image is saved in the “MIUI: directory in the sd card.
3. Press Home key to preview screens
Pressing the Home button once will bring you back to the Home screen. Pressing the Home button button will show you all the screen thumbnails. You can also ad/remove screens from here.
4. Slide from left to right to quickly delete a message or a call log.
In the SMS or Dialer app, swipe left or right any entry will bring up the Delete mode.
5. Move home screen icon easily
Hold down an icon by one hand to enter Edit Mode, and then use the other hand to slide the screen to move the icon to the target screen.
6. Launch Music Player in lockscreen
In the lockscreen, double tap the time zone to launch the Music Player. (The Music Player is hidden by default, unless a song is playing)
7. Quickly access the Dialer or SMS from the lockscreen
In the lockscreen, hold down the icon of Call or SMS, and you can enter the responding program.
8. Activate the torch from the lockscreen
In the lockscreen, hold down the Home button to enable the torch.
9. Access shortcut menu from contact image
In the Calls, SMS or Contacts app, tap the contact image and a shortcut menus will appear.
10. Search via voice recognition
Long press on the Search button will launch search via voice recognition.
11. Switch the Battery UI to show percentage
The default battery UI can be switched to display percentage of left battery capacity. To do so, go to “Settings -> System -> Battery Settings -> Battery Indicator Style -> Percentage“.
12. Long press on the Home button to show History
Like any other Android ROM, long press on the Home button will show the recently used apps. However, in MIUI, there is also an App Killer and App Manager button. Swiping the popup left will show the search form.
13. Setting up IP dialing
If you need to add an IP prefix for a particular number in a strange land, you can set it in Settings -> Common -> Calls Settings. Turn the “Auto IP dialing” ON and set the IP prefix and current area code.
14. Send SMS for rejected calls
When you are not available to answer the phone, you may slide up the panel to reject the call and to send a message to the caller at the same time.
15. Enable 720P to record a video
If your phone comes with a camera that support HD recording, you can enable 720P in the Video mode. Run the Camera app and switch to Video. Select “High” -> “720P” in the pop-up menu of video quality.
16. Quickly uninstall an app
To uninstall an app, simply press and hold the icon until the trash bin show up at the top of the screen. Move the icon to the trash bin to uninstall the app.
17. Quickly read SMS and mark it read
In the lockscreen, press down the SMS button (without dragging it down) to reveal the new incoming message on the lockscreen. Once you have finished reading it, double tap on the SMS button to mark it read.
18. Making the MIUI launcher smoother
On first boot on a fresh install, go into Launcher Settings, and toggle hi-res graphics on, then back off again (If you intend on using the stock MIUI Launcher, this seems to smooth it out significantly)
19. Brightness slider on notification pulldown
Disable auto brightness and you'll get a brightness slider in the notification toggle pulldown.
20. Built in FTP server
MIUI has a built-in FTP file server. To use it, open the File Manager application, and tap on the "FTP" tab.
BONUS: MIUI is pronounced "ME YOU EYE", but say it however you want

I installed it and it performs well so far. I flashed the tiamat 1.1 kernel to because i like the smartass governor a lot, but now it seems as if the virtuous overclock controller just doesn't work with it (fc's all the time).. Does this mean that the daemon doesn't work either?
Whats better abouth the virtous controller compared to setcpu?
Cheers keep up the good work tho!!
thanks for your hard work, will try it later!

The overclock daemon wasn't intended to work with the smartass governor. The daemon uses screen off profiles which makes the smart ass governor useless. Switch back to the on demand governor or the per shoot kernel and things will probably work better
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App
first thing i notice is that scrolling through the homescreens is smooth as butter! wow.
im going to try this one for some time, see if it becomes my new favourite!
Just wondering is the kernel important to work with the daemon or does the governor just need to be set to on demand and it works with any miui compatible kernel?
so could i use tiamat or streamline5 with this kernel then? (sorry i know jsut the concept behind daemon but not the specifics like this)
The force closes of the controller are due to the frequencies in the scripts that are default not being supported by the kernel. If you want to use a different kernel change the frequency in the script then everything will work as expected.

[MOD][ICS][XPOSED] Tweakbox: no-flashing tweaks collection (1.4.0)(23.01.2013)

Maybe you have read about my project called "Xposed", maybe not. In short, it is a framework that can be used to create modifications without touching the APKs, which in turn means that nothing needs to be flashed.
Tweakbox was the first module for Xposed and developed for a 4.0.3 stock ROM for of the Galaxy S2. While Xposed works with many different devices and ROMs, quite a few (or many?) of the tweaks below assume certain existing code in the ROM which can be patched and used. As a consequence, they might work or might not work for you. Especially if you have a non-Samsung phone, only few of the tweaks will work. It depends on your exact ROM what will work, I can't tell you because I don't have your ROM.
Please also note: I'm no longer using Tweakbox after my switch to CM10.1. Therefore this module is no longer actively maintained. You can try if it works for you, but it's unlikely that more features or support for more devices will be added. Patches are still welcome. So please don't be upset if it doesn't work for you - I had planned to remove it, but why should I if still lots of people are using it?
Now to the list of implemented tweaks:
Statusbar
Number of bars for signal strength indicator
Background color. Looks weird actually because most apps aren't made for this.
Clock color
Toggle "switch input method" notification while typing text
[*]CRT (see below for requirements - will probably not work for you)
CRT off effect
CRT on effect
CRT landscape detection
Battery
Levels for critical/low battery warning
Disable Samsung's "100% charged, unplug me now" notification
Phone
Vibrate on Call Wait
Increasing Ringer Volume
Call Recording (see below for requirements - will probably not work for you)
Built-in SIP
Miscellaneous
Don't turn on the screen when unplugging from USB/AC
Choose long HOME key behaviour (do nothing, classical/icon-only, new/thumbnails). Just sets a switch, the implementation has to exist in the ROM.
Skip tracks with a long press on the volume up/down key, ported from here (only when screen is off)
[*]Experimental
Fake 240 DPI for Play Store
The colors can be picked with an extended version of the color picker made by [email protected] This gives you the chance to select any RGB color plus the transparency - steplessly!
Requirements for CRT / call recording:
The CRT effect requires that /system/lib/libsurfaceflinger.so is prepared for this effect. Many phones produce flickering for the CRT off effect. The CRT on effect and rotation awareness is isn't included in the normal library.
Patching the library is much work and unfortunately the library cannot be transferred to other ROMs or phones in most cases.
If you have a stock-based ROM for your I9100, you can push the library from the attached zip to /system/lib at your own risk (if you don't know how to undo it if you get a bootloop, don't do it).
For the I9300, the library can be found here.
For other phones/ROMs/versions: Sorry, I'm not planning to patch more libraries.
Call recording will probably only work on I9100 ICS Stock and only if you have the libraries install from this post. Same game: Know what you're doing or don't do it. I don't know where these libraries originally came from, so I can't provide them for other ROMs.
You might also try this module, I believe it only works on Samsungs's JB ROMs though.
Changelog:
1.0: Initial version [126 downloads]
1.1: Fixed signal strength bars, added color picker for status bar background color (replacing the list) and clock color (added in this version) [543 downloads]
1.2: Some intermediate release, only some betas published
1.3: Lots of new things [3676 downloads]:
- Toggle "switch input method" notification while typing text
- CRT off (no flickering)/CRT on/landscape awareness for SGS2 (tested) and SGS3 (waiting for your feedback). Also triggers the CRT effect if the ROM doesn't (should fix SGS3).
- Phone tweaks: Vibrate on Call Wait, Increasing Ringer Volume, Call Recording, Built-in SIP
- (experimental) Play Store fix for non-standard densities
1.3.1: Compatibility with framework version 2.0
1.3.2: Minor changes for Xposed 2.1
1.4.0: Clock color tweak should now work for more ROMs. Removed (not working) market fix and hidden per-app DPI settings
Installation: See the first post in the Xposed framework thread. You need the framework AND the attached module.
Source code: at GitHub.
Credits to Tungstwenty for all the support and his many contributions, the CM9 project for the long press volume key mod, el_liberator for a hint about the statusbar color, attenzione for the color picker.
Although th 5/6 signal bar mod works, it still has a maximum value of 4 signal bars with the last 1/2 bars always empty. Hope you can fix it.

Now that you're saying it.. I thought I just didn't have a full signal.
This setting actually just enables something built-in, but deactivated. And it seems that Samsung had just started to implement this, but has not finished it. The part where it calculates the signal strength to be displayed is still in the range from 0 to 4. I'll see what I can do. I think Jkay has activated the same function, so maybe he can tell me what he did to fix it.
No problem. Hopefully you can fix it!
Also, could you do mods such as hide alarm clock, vibrate/silent icons, time hide, battery hide?
I found some smail codes for that here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=8104552#post8104552
The signal strength bars are fixed in the next version.. at least for GSM. For CDMA, EVDO and LTE, the signal strength will be interpolated (means that level 1 will be skipped, plus level 5 for the 6 bar version, to have a range from 0 to 6 instead of 0 to 4).
I have also started looking into the status bar icons. I think I found a good place to hide them, but haven't tried yet.
Can't wait for the new version. I can test for you if you there's anything.
thread bookmarked!
Things to consider implenting:
- ics lockscreen on/off
- sammy lockscreen on/off
- hide sms from call log
- no autoconvert of sms to mms
- toggles?
- clock color
- new notification bar in dropdown?
- brighness level/profile
- lockscreen switch
- density changer with market modder
- show/hide statusbar icons
- hardwarebutton for cam
- no low/full battery sound
- reboot options
- remove swipe to unlock text from ls
- tranparent ls
- ...
There is so much u could implement...i think, that is the problem jkay is struggling with. Samsung and google have left so many gaps to fill...i will try to help and find some tutorials to support this project.
Anyway ur idea and approach is brilliant!! Lots of thx for ur efforts mate! Cheers

I think a switch between the two would be better
I have just uploaded version 1.1. Additionally to the signal strength fix, I have added the possibility to change the status bar clock color.
Also I found a very nice color picker and added it to the settings. This makes it possible to select any color with any transparency.
@haasgo: Thanks for the big list of suggestions!
In general: I will concentrate on things I use myself. I have a full-time job, a girlfriend and don't want to spend *every* free minute developing, otherwise I will probably lose interest soon. As I use Go Launcher EX, WidgetLocker and exDialer, it's very unlikely that I will create mods for the launcher, lockscreen or dialer. Also you mentioned some SMS related things.. I write and get very few texts, so don't hope for these features too much.
Anyway, here comes the good thing. In contrast to mods as we know them, where someone patched the framework-res, systemui etc. and published the files, you can combine different modules. Someone else can implement some lockscreen mods and you can use both, with the combined power.
And second, the project is open-source (see first post). If someone implements a new feature or a bugfix, they can send me a pull request so I can integrate it into the Tweakbox.
That said, some specific notes:
- ics lockscreen on/off
- sammy lockscreen on/off
Do you mean this? Sounds easy to implement.
- hide sms from call log => see above
- no autoconvert of sms to mms => see above
- toggles? => the quick settings? yes, definitely on my list!
- clock color => done
- new notification bar in dropdown? => not sure what you mean
- brighness level/profile => will look into it
- lockscreen switch => is this the same as above?
- density changer with market modder => what is the "market modder"? I used the "LCD Density Changer", which works fine
- show/hide statusbar icons => will look into it
- hardwarebutton for cam => maybe
- no low/full battery sound => already implemented (see menu "battery")
- reboot options => what would you like to see there?
- remove swipe to unlock text from ls => see above
- tranparent ls => see above
Totally agree with your approach on this.
You came up with an awesome concept, took the effort to actually make it real, and have now provided a great tool for modders / tweakers to use this framework to do the stuff they please.
I also have a (more than) full-time job, a wife (which is worse than a girlfriend, time-wise ), and definitely agree you should focus on stuff you actually use, which is the things that you're surely more motivated to work on when you do have some spare time for this hobby.
For the community, the great added value you can bring - in addition to the huge step already achieved - is perhaps improving the framework here and there in order to make easier and easier some of the tasks. One of the examples I recall is the recent discussion about the "pos-layout-inflated" hook so you easily have a way to programmatically apply a delta over an existing layout, minimizing collisions between mods or base stock changes that render invalid a mod one writes.
About the mods that could be written, and on a personal preference, the stuff I'm more eager to get (or implement when I get the chance ) are definitely the quick toggles and the additional entries for the power menu (which is what I believe haasgo was referring when mentioning "reboot options" ???).
Also, in the framework itself, I'm still not totally aware of the level of support for changes without reboot, meaning: activating/deactivating a mod (perhaps you can activate it but then must manually kill say "SystemUI process"), changing settings for some of the Tweakbox items and have them reflected immediately, etc.
In summary: you've done an awesome job so far . There are still some small things that might be helpful in the framework itself, but the definite quantum leap is about to happen as soon as this thing gains momentum and mods start appearing that use the framework, bringing more and more devs to this paradigm.
Sorry to be picky but now the 5/6 signal bar mod always shows no bars at all.
I cannot reproduce that.. it has always been working fine for me since I fixed the problem a good week ago.
Anyone else having this problem? Did you restart your phone? I had some strange effects (e.g. battery icon gone) when I tried to just kill the SystemUI. And what does the phone status in the settings app say? For GSM, the number of bars is directly dependent on the "asu level", for others there should be a simple translation from the default (0 to 4) levels.
Anyone using a non-standard density and being annoyed that some Samsung apps don't use the available space? For example like, I'm using 210 dpi. In the calculator, phone, calender etc., there is a big gap on the bottom right.
Well, I found a way to trick those apps into some kind of compatibility mode, which scales up the dimensions. Sometimes that's a bit blurry, but much better than before. And of course, it's looking like a baby phone again with those big buttons. I'm just wondering why it doesn't work well for some apps. Theoretically, this should make it possible to select different densities for all/most apps, but it works only partly.
Your software work very good bro
Good job.
It is possible to add fonctionnality crt on ? For exemple and %battery.
Add most or change toggle it is possible?.
Why % battery bécause when i make this my systemui work when i put in uptdate rom but not work in full rom instal i lost my status bar grrr Lol.
Thanks for your very good job bro.
2 Phone tweaks
I finally took this baby for a spin and implemented 2 patches that I was missing.
This is very rudimentary for now, but just like rovo this is most of all to fulfill my personal needs
The 2 patches I implemented were:
Activate the phone call recording button. This requires manually replacing 2 library files, initially shared by rlorange in this post but that I know attach since the link is dead.
When calling someone and that person is in the middle of a call (outbound call waiting), in addition to the popup message also vibrate the device so you'll know you're on hold even if you're no longer looking at the screen.
Hope this might be useful to someone.
You'll need to have the Xposed framework v1.6+ installed and activate my module in there once the app is installed. Also, you'll need to activate the patches you want (both default to OFF).
Cheers!
Wow, congratulations on that! Nice to see a mod by someone else.

I don't think it's possible from Java side to enable CRT On... the CRT Off is already there (although buggy on some ROMs), I just had to set the switch.
Battery percentage.. maybe. I actually prefer battery icons that already include the percentage.
And what do you mean with "Add most or change toggle"? Those quick settings? I will implement more toggles, but I didn't find the time yet.

Even in sgs2 there are some variants (asian, I think) that don't enforce that restriction. I guess that's where the alternate libs came from.

ICS Custom Navigation Bar Buttons

I'm looking into developing an app that adds a current-app-restart function for force-quitting the current app with focus and then restarting it. But, I want to add it to the Navigation Bar in ICS (requiring root would be fine) but I can't seem to find anywhere that talks about creating an app that inserts a button into the nav bar. If it is possible, will it have to be manually started via a regular app link or can it register itself with the OS? Either way is fine; the latter preferable, of course. The app logic itself is no problem, it's the adding a nav button I need help with. I'd rather not do it with xml edits and instead do it with an installable apk.
Anyone able to point me in the right direction for documentation? Is it possible without recompiling the rom? Thanks for the help.

HTC 'MyModes'-like app for Android (Samsung Galaxy S3)

Hello there:
I am looking for an application that can do the same thing that I was able to accomplish with MyModes when I had the MyTouch 4G which is change the phone profile based on Time, Location, Manual, etc. I have found quite a few 'phone profile' apps on the Play Store but none can do what MyModes can (that or I haven't figured out how to do it with those apps).
This is an example of what I want that app to do:
Switch to Work profile and change:
- change Home screen (with Apps that I use for work only) and just have say 3 screens
- change Wallpaper/background
If I switch to 'Kids' profile
- disable phone calls
- disable SMS
If I switch to 'Home' profile
- change Home screen to a different wallpaper and re-arrange apps to what I use when I'm at home (eg: I use the 'Local' and 'TripIt' apps a lot when Im on the road for work so I have them on my Home screen when using the 'Work' profile but when I'm back home I don't so I dont need them on the Home screen for my 'Home' profile)
- Also I wanna have 5 screens (Home screen plus 2 on each side)
etc etc etc...
All the profile changing apps I've looked at on the Play Store such as Locale, Tasker, Profile Scheduler, PhoneWeaver, and Easy Profiles are good at changing sound profiles and doing a lot more things but they don't seem to be able to do what I need as I mentioned before (or like I said I haven't figure out how to do that with those apps)
Can anyone point me to an app that does that or explain how I can do it with the apps I've mentioned?
Thanks in advance!
You might just be out of luck, as MT4G had its own UI system or launcher or whatever you want to call it. It was not a SENSE theme UI, launcher or what ever you want to call it.

Yea I think I might just be ...actually all those other apps do some of what I need except for changing the Home screen and re-arranging the apps based on which profile is selected
Well hopefully we SGS3 users get the Jelly Bean 4.1 update at the end of this month or early next month like it has been rumored and I'll be able to install and use this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=29999828 <---I just found about it researching my issue here on the forum and it sounds EXACTLY like what I'm looking for!
Yayyyy
The only working solution I can think of for home screen switching is if you use one launcher for work with 1 wallpaper and apps arrangement and another launcher for home.
Have you looked into "tasker" or "locale" on the market?

Hello there:
I am looking for an application that can do the same thing that I was able to accomplish with MyModes when I had the MyTouch 4G which is change the phone profile based on Time, Location, Manual, etc. I have found quite a few 'phone profile' apps on the Play Store but none can do what MyModes can (that or I haven't figured out how to do it with those apps).
This is an example of what I want that app to do:
Switch to Work profile and change:
- change Home screen (with Apps that I use for work only) and just have say 3 screens
- change Wallpaper/background
If I switch to 'Kids' profile
- disable phone calls
- disable SMS
If I switch to 'Home' profile
- change Home screen to a different wallpaper and re-arrange apps to what I use when I'm at home (eg: I use the 'Local' and 'TripIt' apps a lot when Im on the road for work so I have them on my Home screen when using the 'Work' profile but when I'm back home I don't so I dont need them on the Home screen for my 'Home' profile)
- Also I wanna have 5 screens (Home screen plus 2 on each side)
etc etc etc...
All the profile changing apps I've looked at on the Play Store such as Locale, Tasker, Profile Scheduler, PhoneWeaver, and Easy Profiles are good at changing sound profiles and doing a lot more things but they don't seem to be able to do what I need as I mentioned before (or like I said I haven't figure out how to do that with those apps)
Can anyone point me to an app that does that or explain how I can do it with the apps I've mentioned?
Thanks in advance!

Active Android stock virtual buttons.

Hello people, someone know how to active the default Android back, home and recent apps buttons on my s4 mini with stock 4.2.2 ROM?
Thanks!
Same here
Well I've been trying to get this feature on too. But so far no luck!
Here is what I've been doing:
adding in
/system/build.prop
the line
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
Then reboot and all I got is repeated alerts of System UI crash
With no status bar showing.
