[MAGURO] [MOD] 4G/H+ Icon for HSPA+ [AOKP M5] - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hello everyone! This is my first ever mod . It's not much, but it was a wonderful learning experience! I've created this thread here because it's probably more appropriate here than in the development section.. Hopefully a mod can delete the one there! This one has more information anyway .
NOTE: This is only for the GSM Galaxy Nexus (Obviously, CDMA Nexus doesn't have HSPA+ ) and is only for the AOKP rom version M5!
Now this isn't just another SystemUI xml mod that swaps the H icon for the 4G icon. This is actually a mod to the source of SystemUI.apk so it can distinguish between HSPA and HSPA+ and show the H icon for HSPA and the 4G/H+ Icon for HSPA+.
Screenshots of both the 4G and H+ are attached.
DISCLAIMER: Although this is a very simple modification and should in no way cause harm to your device, it is still your own responsibility to be careful when modifying your device .
TESTING: I have made flashable zips for both the 4G icon and the H+ icon. I have not tested them though so I'm not positive it works, but it should! If anyone wants to do a backup and flash the zip and let me know how it goes I'd greatly appreciate it! Otherwise, use the manual install procedure below that I know works.
----------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE I'm pretty sure these zips don't work . If anyone wants to private message me with some more info on how to make zips and what's wrong with these I'd appreciate it! For now, you should use the manual install procedure below!
Instructions for zip install:
1. Download zip.
2. Reboot to Recovery (CWM).
3. Install zip from SD card.
4. (Optional) Wipe cache/dalvik cache.
5. Reboot.
6. Enjoy!

----------------------------------------------------------------
Instructions for manual install (not using flashable zip above):
1. Download SystemUI.apk to your SD card.
2. Using your root file explorer of choice, go to system/app and rename your SystemUI.apk to SystemUI.apk.backup (in case you want to go back). Don't forget to Mount R/W if using Root Explorer.
3. Copy SystemUI.apk from your SD card to system/app.
4. Fix permissions on the new SystemUI.apk to rw-r-rr-rr (Owner: read, write; Group: read: Others: read).
5. Reboot
6. Enjoy your 4G/H+ icon!

What if I wanted to revert?
[Edit] Figured I could just save a copy of the one I already have in the phone and have it as a backup.
[Edit 2] Flashable didn't, uh, flash. Curious.
[Edit 3] It should now show GPRS, EDGE, 3G, HSPA, and HSPA+? (By saying that, I ask if you added H+ and left H intact.)

1. For reverting, saving a copy is the best idea!
2. Yeah the .zip was formatted wrong, I just barely fixed that, should work!
3. Exactly! H is intact. H+ is only shown on HSPA+! (HSPAP:15 for Mobile Network under settings)

thank you kind sir!

Interesting. My hometown's antennas seem to be set to only have HSPA+ and 3G (and all the ones below) then. No "regular" HSPA.

Yeah I've talked to a few people where this is the case. If you watch your Mobile network type under Settings>About Phone>Status you should be able to verify that it's working. I only change to H+ when it's HSPAP (HSPAP:15 on TMo in the US) (From my research, that's H+). Otherwise I show just the H (HSPA, HSDPA, etc.)

alright no worries, I appreciate your work

Can you say me pls how to do this, because I´m on Apex and I want the 4g icon too

Just tried the APK. I get systemUI force close when i reboot the phone. Navigation keys and status bar dont start up. I had to restore the old systemui.apk

tried both files
looks like they are both 4G, no H+ ?!

AOKP B37 support?
I love this tweak, but several things of AOKP build 37 don't play well with it. Any chance of an update for this build?

[ROM UPDATE 01/19/12][Deodexed][1.12.23-2.1.13 Framework][ICS] Nexus S 4G 4.0.3

In the interest of time I will make this quick. I ported this from MIUIScotland's 4.0.3 rom. Everything works if you flash the matrix kernel 13 or 14.5 (see below) Feedback is good.
Proceedure:
*v.1.12.23*
1. Full Wipe (format data, system, boot, cache if boot loops)
2. Flash rom (link below)
3. Flash either of the Matrix Kernels below.
4. Reboot and enjoy
*Update v.1.12.23-2.1.6*
Notes: ROM can be flashed over 1.12.23. Researching standalone flash results. For now install 1.12.36 (the original) then the update to be safe.
Full wipe if coming from anyother rom besides 1.12.23
*memory offset notice during flash is not an error notice, so disregard as normal.*
Working:
WiFi, bluetooth, voice, data, GPS, market, launcher, camera, DHCP, SU, Exchange (ActiveSync), Flash Player*
*Download the BrowserGoogle.apk>place in /system/app directory>fix permissions>enjoy
Not Working:
WiMax

Oh yeah, I am not liable for anything that happens due to this rom.
**No worries though this ROM is stable and crisp.
Includes bash-4.0.0 binary that I added as a supplement. type "bash" using any terminal emulator apk and then type help to view command and version info.
01/16/2012
Update: Below is the ROM Update I promised to deliver.
Version: 1.12.23-2.1.6----->>>>> I have merged my orginal base rom with the 2.1.6 MIUI framework. This merge results with all features functioning as in the orginal rom, but with the added system ui color scheme of 2.1.6. Also, I have added about a dozen new binary files in the /system/bin directory that I have aquaired and or patched from the basic ARMel Linux architecture. In addition to these binary files, I included about 12 new apk in the rom to minimize my own post flash configuration process. I hope that this can save someone else a little time and frusteration too. Bonus features of the new framework are the Supermarket, Notes, YouTube, Google+, DSPManager, the original SprintTV app, the orginal Nexus 3D Gallery, and all Supermarket downloads are now fully functioning. The build number is the same to prevent the mobile data from crashing. So with out further adoo, Here tis'...
Download Link: http://www.mediafire.com/?3c4rbocb90nne49
ATTENTION- Force Closes on inital boot can accure, but should not persistantly inhibit system function. Solution below...
REPLACE GOOGLELOGINSERVICE.APK AND GOOGLESERVICESFRAMEWORK.APK WITH THE RESPECTIVELY NAMED APKS BELOW IN /SYSTEM/APP/. MANUALLY FIX THE PERMISSIONS TO MATCH AL THE OTHER APKS IN /SYSTEM/APP/>REBOOT. ​[1.17.12]Upgrade (pronounced Oop-grad in German*) Build v4 1.12.23 R2: China 2.1.6 framework resources included
This refined version is fully flashable after a complete wipe/total device reformat (I tested it on my crespo4g this time). I has a tone of features and I received only one force close on boot, Updater App, which after closing only once did not come back to stain me like mustard on a new pair of pants or pantaloons depending on your local vernacular.
What works[Everything from previous builds +]: USB Mounting, Facelock, Language Dictionaries, Theme Manager's online library, over 2000kb/sec downstream on 3g (basically 4g is working after you create a new APN named sprint[pm me of look it up on the net if you need help.
Not Working: MMS..probably..I am sure someone will let me know about their precious mms

It is a aethetic error. Usually roms say "Sprint," but I did not edit the xml, so it reads that the phone is not roaming, which is the next line item in the array string.
It says everything works but does mms work??

I did not edit the boot.img or the framework, so you shouldn't have boot loop problems. Formate system, data, cache, and boot. Reflash rom and please let me kow the result for troubleshooting purposes. Thank you.
Nope, just tested all three. Check browser settings ie pop-up blocker or safe-screening type filter settings.

[THEME] Change ICS Grey Background to Black using ZipThemer/MetaMorph

This mod will change the stock grey gradient background in ICS to solid black (see attached pic). This should work with any ROM. To install, see the instructions at the bottom of this post taken from atticus182's thread (anywhere that it refers to "Softkey Style", replace that with "blacked-out.zip").
This zip is 100% the work of belipe: blacked-out.zip
atticus182 said:
*** ZipThemer ***
Download and install ZipThemer from the Market
Download a Softkey Style using the ZipThemer link in the First Post, and open up ZipThemer on your phone
If this is the first time using ZipThemer, hit the (hidden) menu key -> Hit "Update Edify" -> Hit "Browse" (pick a file that you have flashed before on your phone, like your ROM or a theme) -> Hit "Configure" -> Then hit the 'back' softkey to return to the main screen.
Click the "+Theme" button, browse to the download folder and select the .zip you have just downloaded using the ZipThemer link in the First Post, probably /sdcard/download
Click the "Build It!" button, and when it prompts if you want to make an "undo-zip", click "Always"
You will now see the output screen with the Build Log, check if everything went alright, it will show that a zip file has been created on /sdcard/
Reboot your phone to Recovery after this and flash the .zip file that is created on /sdcard/
Done! If you experience problems or want to undo the action just flash the "undo-zip" that's also located on /sdcard/
*** MetaMorph ***
Download and install MetaMorph from the Market, open it at least once so that the folder AndroidThemes will be created on /sdcard/
Download a Softkey Style using the MetaMorph link and move this .zip file to /sdcard/AndroidThemes using your favorite file explorer
Open MetaMorph, choose "Unzip/Extract new theme" and select the .zip file you downloaded. A popup screen will appear, meaning it has been extracted. Press the "Close" button.
Hit the "Apply all!" button and wait +/- 5 seconds (nothing will happen)
Reboot your phone immediately after this and you're done! Oh, and set a new wallpaper because it may be restored to default..

[SOFTKEYS] [09-03] Softkey Collection 2.0 [GSM/CDMA]
[THEME] Blue Magic (Full ICS) Theme (CNA 1.5.0 | Universal .zip!) [Mar 10]
I was wondering if it's possible to make a similar zip file to change the grey background in the ICS Settings and other screens to solid black? Is this even possible? Being able to apply this to any ROM using ZipThemer or MetaMorph would be amazing - that grey ICS background gradient is just so ugly.

of course that is possible, as you can see in many themes. I dont know zipThemer or metamorph, but generating a zip with the changed images is very easy.
you can find the image you have to change in /system/framework/framework-res.apk/res/drawable-nodpi the file you have to change is: background_holo_dark.png

Thanks, I'll try the manual route for now then (will try this on BAMF). The reason I thought a file compatible with ZipThemer or MetaMorph would be good is because is auto-generates a flashable zip for you, as well as an "undo" zip. Very convenient and user-friendly.

Yep I know that, but sadly I never worked with that. The manual method is the method I prefer, because I control whats in the zip and whats not
this would be awesome especially for rapid release roms like cm9 nightlies

It should work on any rom.
Just an alternative in case you guys don't want to use metamorph. I always use this. Makes for a clean look.

JOP40D Stock Wifi Tethering

RE: Sprint, Glaxy Nexus running Stock 4.2.1:
Has anyone found a way to enable wifi tethering with a rooted stock JOP40D yet?
Oh no, three angels have fallen from grace as a result of your mis-leading title and posting in the wrong section.
Now for the goods I was gonna do the hack for that but I won't have time, its simple to do all you need its apktools and the knowledge of how to use it and you're good to go.
1. use apktool to de-compile framework-res.apk
2. navigate to res/values/arrays.xml
3. open arrays.xml in a notepad editor
4. edit the line "config_tether_upstream_types" change the 4 to a 5
5. save changes and re-compile framework-res.apk
from there you will be able to tether

wrong thread? I am talking about a Sprint, Galaxy Nexus running JOP40D stock and rooted and the wifi tethering functionality, this requires some dev work (see post above yours). so maybe I should have been more descriptive in my title or even my post I guess I assumed since I posted it in here it would be obvious sorry to anyone who may have been confused or mislead, if a mod wants to move it no worries :good:
Anyways... I will try the decompile/recompile steps and see if that works, I just didnt want to re-invent the wheel if someone already had done it
thanks!

Thanks this worked perfectly! For anyone choosing to do this things to note:
1. It will wipe your google account so you will have to re-login and setup the gapps
2. the framework-res.apk size will not be the same (in my case it was either a full MB larger if I unzip/reziped it with my changes or 4 MB smaller if I just dropped my new resources.arsc into the original apk.. very big size difference but everything still boots up and works *shrug*

hedrickms, first of all, thank you very much for doing this and posting it for the rest of us.
Would it be possible to post a "back to stock/restore to Sprint configuration" flashable .zip, just in case? (It's always nice to have that available in case I need my phone to appear to be truly unrooted and stock.)
-- Andrew
OK not sure if this works but here is a flashable .zip to return tethering to Stock (Locked) state. I did not flash this to see if it works so if you have issues please let me know and I will see what went wrong. The "tethering_4.2.1_Return_Stock.zip" is for Sprint Android 4.2.1 only and will not work with 4.1.1 or 4.1.2.

Morning managed to get 4.2.2 from the gsm version of galaxy nexus working on my vzw galaxy by changing the build prop and adding and deleting some files in the lib folder and adding and deleting xml's for the vpn.. the 4.2.2 I flashed isn't mine so I take no credit for it just used it to flash because it was deoxeded and rooted already... it was zipped by bigxie (bigxie_magurTA_JDQ39-signed.zip) just look in the gsm galaxy nexus thread. Flashed rom first then flashed current vzw radios and then moded files and set permissons. The files were:
sys-Vendor-lib" libsec-ril_lte.so from 4.2.1 and deleted libsec-ril.so from "lib"
"ECT" apns-conf.xml from 4.2.1 and deleted the original file
"ECT--PERMISSIONS" com.vzw.hardware.lte.xml from 4.2.1 and com.vzw.hardware.ehrpd.xml and deleted com.hardware.telephony.gsm.xml
Modded Build.prop for cdma and lte...(there wasn't to many but not gonna list them all)
wiped cache and dalvik and now have a strong 4G signal and fast data...not a developer here at all, just tried to figure out how to get lte and vpn on 4.2.2 so sorry for bad post...good luck..
Mwalt2 did a complete mod in zip form with bigxie rom that is a smoother and grabs signals better and no messing with permissions and everything like that so way easier...here is the link

the 4.2.2 rom isn't in there just the files I added, screen shots, and the modded build.prop, but just a weekend warrior here so not sure if I just got lucky but all is working good so far

There are a few other things that will need changed. I'd think that your GPS and WiFi aren't going to work well or at all. I've posted a list of CDMA files that need to be included on this forum before and I think in the q&a gnex forum (search there first for posts by me and see of you can find it...I would but won't be on a PC for awhile).

That link is for the GSM Galaxy Nexus. I wouldnt flash that on your Verizon Galaxy Nexus. If I understand this right, the zip file given here are just the files you have to manually replace yourself in a file browser and not a flashable zip.

i understand that thats a gsm version. but to get this going don't i have to flash that rom as a the base and follow the op by replacing the system files?
they would be set rw-r-r correct?
i may just hold off a few days but im anxious to get these bugs fixed :laugh:

I just re-read the OP and I guess thats what he did. Flash the GSM zip and replace files with Verizon files. I havent tried it. I, personally, am going to wait for something else.

yeah that's what worked for me, the rooted 4.2.2 and those files and i got 4g, and the correct vpn showing afterwards...even the baseband showed correct after the build prop changes so Yep...should work out just don't forget to set permissions and delete the gsm files..

yes the permission are set rw-r-r or 644 and it was kind of easy you just have to get lte/cdma files in the lib or ect so the rom knows to look for lte or cdma and not gsm...all they are are xml files and just have to add a bunch of ro.cdma and change the name in build prop..i was actually surprised how easy it was when the baseband showed correct and I got a blue 4g signal

no...I did flash the GSM 4.2.2 on my CDMA VZW GN, there is NO GSM RADIO IMAGE on the 4.2.2 GSM ROM the dev removed it.. so there is not damage to the CDMA GN... so you are just flashing a ROM meant to pick up GSM, all you have to do is replace the files so the rom picks up lte/cdma...and all they are are xml files and one .so file and the build prop to tell the phone where to look...thats all...it was actually really easy

and sorry for the confusion that zip is NOT flashable just the files I used to get the rom over to lte/cdma..I used root explorer to add the lte/cdma files and for setting perms
Hij,
I tried doing the same on Sprint Galaxy Nexus.. But it didn't work. Do you have any tips?
Cheers

the only way i figured it out was to look at the build prop especially the RIL lines..they give the exact file that needs to be replaced
ex. on the gsm: rild.libpath=/vendor/lib/libsec-ril.so libsec-ril.so is the driver the rom is looking for
I replaced the file in the "lib" folder and build.prop line with rild.libpath=/vendor/lib/libsec-ril_lte.so so the rom will now look for the lte driver
make sure the "telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice" line equals 1 it tells the phone that it is a lte/cdma device..if there is a 0 the phone thinks it is a gsm device
also don't forget to set permissions as rw-r-r as they are in screenshots and to delete out the gsm files ...they aren't named the same so there is no overwrite or replace.. you have to delete them. I don't know how sprint files and radios are setup though but I hope this helps...
You guys may as well replace the files in the gsm zip before flashing it and save yourselves some time. There's no reason to do it after unless you just like using a file explorer on your phone. Also, an easy way to see what is different is to compare CM roms for the gnex.

[ROM][T989UVMC6] Lightly Tweaked Stock [25/04]

Lightly Tweaked Stock
Purpose of Rom
You may have noticed that this rom unlike others is essential all stock. I've done this for the people who want a clean rom to start their own development from or just like the complete stock experience without the hassle of Odin and rooting afterword.
Features
Based off UVMC6 (4.1.2)
Deodexed
Rooted with supersu
CM10 APN
Screenshots
UVMC6 Related Issues
If you don't use a radio based on a 4.1.2 rom you will get no signal bars and may experience frequent disconnects. If you're on a provider other then t-mobile like me you will be able to connect to your data network provider if cm10 supports it but you will need to disable wifi calling in the settings.
Flashing Instructions
Use Odin to get a custom recovery (Tested on TWRP 2.5)
Wipe System/Data/Cache/Davlik/Preload
Flash Rom
Reboot
Let sit for 10 minutes
Reboot agian
Enjoy!

No offense, but this is not development, this belongs in general.

Perhaps I am, what have you done here then development wise other than posting a rooted stock 4.1.2.? Seems like there are about 20 threads in this forum that already that cover this.

If you don't know what the difference is between this and the other 20 then flash it and see or STFU and GTFU! :good:
wifi tethering
if you want wifi thering on a stock rooted rom then try this. download wifi tether widget from play store and set up name and password. then go to system-apps and delete tetheringprovisions.apk. then create new apn. name it tether. then on apn line enter epc.tmobile.com or whatever is in the apn line for your provider. save it you dont have to set it as your apn. you should have wifi tethering now:good:

I've never had any problem's charging to 100% with UVMC6, did you try wiping your caches and/or data? You could try to charge to 100% in a recovery or when the phone is off and reboot that way, it's unlikely it's a hardware issue but if it is that would let you know.

Tetheringpervision.apk is hard coded into the framework-res.apk. For it to successfully work you would also need to decompile the framwork-res.apk and navigate to red/values/array and remove the part about tetheringpervision. Then recompile the apk and push it to system/framework. if you need help let me know.
Also the APNs need to be unlocked or you won't be able to change it. Last there is a hidden APN for tethering, if it isn't removed you will never be able to connect.

There's also a good guide for t-mobile touchwiz roms here , I'm going to upload a flashable zip with the mod incorporated in a few mins.
This is exactly what I was looking for.

But, I can't seem to find google play store after I boot, or reboot, what did I do wrong?
Never mind, I decided to go back to ICS via odin and wait for the official update from koodo.

Yes Jovy is one of my buddies. He and I trade modifications all the time. Anyways, like I said if you need a hand let me know... or you can just grab mine. That is fine with me as well.
Great!
