Do you mean the screensaver pictures? Someone talked about looking for them before, but I never heard that anyone did.
Well, I got curious and I went hunting and this is what I figured out.
The pics are in the /data/data/com.amazon.bueller.photos/cache
Pics are named like ffffffff-cdaa-2d45-ffff-ffffbbfce200.0.cloud
They are jpegs. You need to chmod them to get them off the system.

Thank you very much

Thanks for posting those, they are very nice pictures....but they are not the pictures I see on my Kodi 17, when it goes into screensaver mode. Is there a way to get the pictures I want?

i'd like to figure this out, as well. attempts using ThemeGenCE haven't kept the 'flat-ness'
I remember reading up on this here is how to make them flat:
With WM6 Bars are 3D. But if you define Specific keys like these one :
* "Color_SoftkeyFlatCenter"
* "Color_TitleFlatCenter"
they become "flat". Thanks to Meschle, for this precision.

Glad you got it working, didn't have the program installed myself, so it was just chucking that out there and hoping it was useful

Custom picture frame?

I'd like to change the look of the frame used with the picture frame widget, but I can't find the image anywhere in the ROM (CM 4.1.999). Anyone know where I might find it? Thanks!

thank you
Awesome. Thank you!
Edit: Hmm ok, so I went in and replaced the default image with one I made, almost exactly the same except it's got sharp corners (I know, I'm picky). Anyway, I went ahead and repacked the apk and pushed it thru adb to /system/app. Now, the default frame is gone, but the one I made isn't showing up. It's like there's no border at all. Thoughts? I used Photoshop,, same dimensions as original with transparent background, saved as PNG.
this image is a ".9.png", are you aware that these have to be edited and compiled correctly to work correctly? You should search the theme forums for "draw9patch", it is a tool that is used to properly recompile these images.
A ".9" is a strechable image that has guide-lines on it that tell the OS where to stretch the image. then you must use eclipse to recompile the images, and THEN they will show up and work correctly.
If you need any help, or a good in-depth explanation of how this works, lemme know...

If you don't plan to do a lot more "theming" than setting everything up to sign 1 .9.png probably isn't worth it for you.
If you upload the file I'll sign it for you.

[Help PLEASE] Spectrum/Charter Cable App Without "hdmi" detection

Looking for a working Spectrum TV app, modded to get rid of HDMI detection.
Thank you.

I am wondering if anyone can get rid of the "HDMI Detection" for the Spectrum/ Charter Cable App from PlayStore. I'd like to use it on my Firetv box so that my kids can watch cable in their room since I can't afford to pay for another cable box.. I would greatly appreciate the help. Below is a link to the app from my Dropbox. Thank you.

The app you referred me to, installs but when I click on it, it force closes immediately. I posted a link to a modded one I found here somewhere, which partially works. Maybe that one can help you.

However, If I can get HDMI, can worry about other MODs later, because isn't the HDMI thing the issue? (why we can't just install from playstore)

Bet you'll be heavily contributing to the FTV(S) sceen. Welcome aboard.
After your done playing with the Spectrum App. If you get bored or have some time. Maybe you can take a look at the ATT UVerse apps (FireTV & PlayStore) to see if they can be modded. Specially to bypass the root check.
I can quickly test any mod you send/post. PM me any time.
Here are some mods that might help on Spectrum & other apps too:

Thank you my friend! With TWC switching to Spectrum, am losing channels left and right, and now a set top box is needed on every TV.. No thanks, I was happy with my 2-71 channels with just a direct cable, so the FireStick was something I wanted anyway, so I decided to pull the trigger on it, to quickly find out the app is supported :silly::laugh:
Hopefully myself or someone else can get this sorted out as it's a great MOD that was created and I hope I can revive it. There is so much info though, and just making the ones today took hours, but the confusion is that I am making literally the same edits as the app that is linked here into the new app but yet it just isn't taking, so maybe some new checks are in place, but I couldn't find them. But with a device for myself to test will save some good time, and it's always a good learning experience.
I know how it goes. To me the process or learning experience can be even more fun or rewarding then even a positive outcome. Gotta enjoy the road. Not just the destination. I've been in the FTV(S) sceen for over two years. And it's been a blast. Hope you enjoy it as much as I have. As much fun as it's been. This relatively cheap devices really solved a ton of content access problems too.

Stereo MOD possible?

Any talented dev in here who could accomplish a stereo mod for the MI 9 SE by using the earpiece as second speaker?
There are already MODs for the MI 8 e.g.

I can attempt it. But I'm going to need some files from your mi 9 se which requires root. If you have root. Please give these files :
mixer_path_mtp.xml
mixer_payh_tavil.xml
It's ok if you only have one of the above.

Nope sorry, can't upload anything to Gdrive.. Maybe someone other can? I've packed all mixer-files from my Mi9SE (Global) in the attached .zip, maybe that will help you out, for downloading..

It's a bit hard to find the lines to edit, in the earpiece section, change RX0 Digital Volume. But you also have to change RX0 Digital Volume on the upper page is the file. I'll attach some screenshots.
Here they are
thanks, man.
but i have to say.. the upper speaker is barely listenable.. it's just a little bit of support.. no real volume. perhaps it's just not potentional enough

Some phones are just not capable enough to make it noticeable, so what volume did you get it to?
