[Q] Where to find Incredible 2 3G Taskbar Icon

I just installed the Kingdom Rewind Sense 3.0 Rom which is extremely stable. However it says 4G for the Data icon. Does anyone know where I can find the 3G icon that comes standard on the Droid Incredible 2? It looks alot different than most of the other phones data icons. Thanks

Download one of the Incredible 2 roms and go to /system/framework/framework-res.apk..All the images you need are buried in that apk

Nope. The correct one is in SystemUI.apk. I can make you a mod if you upload ur systemui.apk. I'll give you the new one.

But would i flash the whole task bar or just the 3G icon. If so, how would I extract just the 3G icon and it would it be a zip or .apk file?

How do I do that?

I'm not sure if it'll work with a Framework apk but if its just 1 image then just use Ninjamorph

Once I have that app then what do I look for?

Part 1
1. Download this zip: http://www.mediafire.com/?4cwpdod5ycxq5fb on your computer
2. Unzip it
3. Copy files to your SD card
Part 2
1. Download NinjaMorph
2. Select New project>system>app>systemui.apk
3. Let it do its thing
4. Go into res>drawable-hdpi
5. Find all the files that have the old 3g icon, and replace them with the ones in my zip. All the ones you need are in the zip. So, in other words just find the files with the same file name as the ones in the zip. Tap on the file you want to replace and select the file with the same filename that came from my zip.
6. Go back to main menu of NM.
7. Click Finish project, select systemui.apk then yes, then no, then no
8. Hot Restart
Hope this helped feel free to ask any questions.

Looks like nyterage made you a flashable in your other thread, but oh well.

Nice write-up, sorry OP I was at work so I couldn't answer your question in full.

Is there a way to find an icon from another ROM and use it instead? Where would it be located in the system files?

...download calkulin's stock rom once downloaded go to where you downloaded it on your computer double click the zip file to open it up inside the archive manage open the system folder open the app folder scroll down to touchwiz30launcher.apk...thats the file that controls touchwiz and the file you are replacing...
once you have this open, double click on whatever calk rom you already have downloaded whether it be 2.8.1 regular or deploted...if you dont have the zip downloaded to your computer downloaded again...follow the steps i have before to get to the same location... open the zip goto system goto app scrool down to touchwiz30launcher.apk the files are named the same but calk altered the apk file internally... extract that file
go to where u extracted the file copy it into the stock rom and replace the already existing file once completed close the zip and put the altered stock rom zip on ur phone and flash as usual...
when your phone boots up it is going to look like the old touchwiz with the four buttons on the dock bar... open your app drawer click on the menu button click on view type and change to customizable grid...click on the menu button again and hit edit click on whatever app u want and drag it down to the dock... click on menu button again then view type and change it to what ever you like
if you followed my instructions ur app drawer will be 5x5 and will be able to have 5 buttons on the dock bar in a stock rom

Haven't tried it yet but maybe it requires TW framework? Idk. I'm on AOKP right now, anyone else try this?
Edit: Actually it doesn't look like it needs TW framework since people are getting to work on their Galaxy Nexus's

Now.....after reinstall..should I reboot or no..?....I mean I will have to do a reboot eventually...
UNTOUCHABLE EPIC CM9 BETA 3

i would try it without a reboot at all to see if it does work for you. i did not reboot after installing.

I just installed and no reboot no move and it appears to work fine. I would love if eventually the microphone on the screen in cm9 in the search bar could be modified to run svoice instead of googles voice search

Folks, just download the file from here and extract the files from the rar. Push the voicetalk.apk to /system/apps and change the permissions, (or use root explorer) then open the APK file in winrar or winzip, go to the lib folder, then the armeabi folder and extract the libvoxtts.so from that folder. Put the libvoxtts.so file in /system/lib and change the permissions appropriately. Reboot and it will show in the app drawer under S Voice.
No problems on reboot at all. In fact... here are the S voice APK and the lib file already extracted for you, just open in winrar and put the apk in /system/apps/ and the .so file in /system/lib/, change the permissions on both files to rw-r--r-- and then reboot and you will be good to go.

Explained here, but it may not work right with files that have already been modified. They might not decompile correctly, I'd check with Tim before changing anything though, he'll let you know if it's workable.

I have already made a mod for the carrier labels in the fi27 update. The new carrier label says team rejectz. If you would like to make your own carrier label(s) for fh23 for your own personal use, here's how...
What you will need:
-Pc/laptop updated with the latest java /sdk/jdk. (google it)
-Team Rejectz quick fix. (xda-dev section)
-Root file explorer such as : root explorer or ES file explorer OR adb shell on your pc to pull/push files from your pc to your phone.
-Notepad++ (google it)
-7 zip (google it)
- rooted e4gt and a NANDROID BACKUP!
1. Pull the framework res from your phone. Make a copy and save it. (system/framework)
2. Use the quick fix to decompile the framework res apk. The quick fix will make a framework res folder.
3. Go to res/values/strings.xml and open it with NotePad ++
4. At the top of NotePad ++ you will see an icon that looks like a pair of binoculars. That's the search icon.
Search for "Sprint". You should get 3 instances.
5 edit "Sprint" to say Black or Team Rejectz, your name or whatever you like. Just make sure its not too big or it won't work.
6. Recompile. After quick fix is done recompiling, there will be 2 new folders in the framework res folder; build, and dist. Go into the dist folder and you will see your new framework res apk.
7. Open the archive (don't extract, just open archive) of both the original copy of the framework res and the new one you edited from the dist folder. Drag and drop the META inf folder from the original to the modded apk. Now double click on the res folder in both archives. Drag and drop the drawable hdpi folder from the original to the modded archive.
Close out the archives and push your new framework res to system/app on your phone with either adb or your rooted file explorer. If you use the file explorer to push the framework res make sure you set the permissions the same as the rest of the system apks first. Push, reboot, enjoy.

Thanks

Yea. Tried this today. I ran into a couple problems. The last step you say to push the framework-res file to "system/app" is that correct cause there is no room in there. I only have like a couple megs in there. I would have thought that it replaces the original file in "system/framework". I copied it there and over wrote the original and set permissions . The phone restarted by it self when I did that and got stuck on the boot animation. I force restarted the phone again and it still gets stuck on the boot animation. I restored my nandroid. I followed your instructions to a T. With the exception of where the framework-res file should go:crying: My carrier label has the same amount of characters as "Team Rejectz".

Ok, first yes that should go to framework, system/app must have been a typo. Second, the getting stuck on boot could be a number of things, you'll have to get a logcat to find the specific cause. When this happened to me it was an improper edit that caused the xml to fail although it recompiled fine. Hope that helps.

Modifying GAPPS

I want to take an existing gapps and modify it with all of my favorite apps to make flashes between roms less painful. Been researching and saw you can use a zip program to easily achieve this. Question, is it that simple or is there more to know? Any advice be welcomed.
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2

Yes it is almost that simple. Make sure you add the apks you want in the data/apps folder and have signature verification turned off. If you need to any further help just pm me.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda app-developers app

Yes, this would be very easy
You need: 7zip and the apks of all your favorite apps
1. Grab the zip for the gapps you're using
2. Open the zip using 7zip (DO NOT EXTRACT)
3. There should be a folder named "data". Open it and go into the "app" folder (final path should be gapps.zip/data/app)
4. Now go to where the apks of your favorite programs are and drag all of them into the open 7zip window. Say yes when the prompt comes up
5. Thats it. The flashable zip extracts EVERYTHING thats in the "data" folder so your apps will be included in that
For more info, and to learn how to creat your own flashable zip (its not very hard actually) go to the following thread:
Note however, that it would be easier to just make a whole different flashable zip that contains your favorite apps since gapps vary by rom and by android version

Thanks for the quick feedback guys, some great responses. Excited to have a reason to fire up my pc.

Some apk's need lib files added to the zip file. Titanium Backup is one, for example, that I add to all my ROMs before I flash them. Swiftkey is another.

Titanium Backup Pro will allow you to create a flashable zip of all of your installed user apps in a single click
