Changing my internet icon into Safari Browser Banner

just played with my HTC touch HD and try to figure it out on how to change the Image Banner/Browser Icon on my Internet Tab....
check this out
http://s157.photobucket.com/albums/t57/butz007/htc%20touch%20hd/?action=view&current=safari_browser.jpg
how to do it very simple
1. Create an Icon... must be on .PNG (whatever software do you prefer will definitely do as long as the final output would be on Transparent PNG)
note: the size of the PNG icon must be on 480 by 200 pixels, 72 dpi
2. Edit the XML code, don't be afraid this won't bite you (for all the newbs and non-developers)
you could always locate the XML code on this path on your device go to Application\Manila
InternetPortal.xml and InternetPortal-en-AU.xml
copy that and edit it on your desktop computer using a Notepad
note: make sure you have a back-up copy of the original better do this than sorry
then heres the original code just look the following highlighted text this is the one you going to change
***************************
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<InternetPortal>
<IncludeUserFavorites>True</IncludeUserFavorites>
<Banner
DefaultImagePath="\Windows\480x200.qtc"
SelectedImagePath="\Windows\480x200.qtc"
Text="Launch Gee!"
NavigateUrl="http://gee-select.starhubgee.com.sg/wap/"
Width="480"
Height="215" />
<OperatorLinks>
<Link
Text="YouTube"
Executable="\windows\youtube.exe"
ImagePath="\Windows\HTC\Assets\Images\InternetPortal\youtube.qtc" />
</OperatorLinks>
</InternetPortal>
*******************************************
the first two highlighted text where the image path and the filename of icon that you just created... OK!?
example
DefaultImagePath="\Windows\myicon.png"
SelectedImagePath="\Windows\myicon.png"
second, I'm using a Blackstone that i bought in singapore so theres starhub logo and starhub link there so I've really don't know on your devices if were both the same but i think all htc devices were all the same when it comes to firmware.. so next on my device I got a welcome text
example
Text="Launch achu chu chu etc etc...or welcome to my world!"
Third Highlighted Text is the link of your banner
Whatever Link you may think that you usually go so often using your device
NavigateUrl="http://playboy.com"
and then FINALLY
copy this the two edited xml file and overwrite it on you devices, same path ofcourse.....Application\Manila, using Total Commander
then put your created art (PNG) on the main windows folder and viola, your personalized Internet Tab.......
...............................................................................
LIKE it..LOVE it.. HATE IT.. WHATEVER!! just enjoy it! ...

Question about APN info from apns-conf.xml

I managed to get a system dump from a Samsung Acclaim which is the only Android phone available for my service provider (US Cellular/USCC.)
I found the apns-conf.xml file but I'm not sure what info I need from it to get added to the APNs available for XDAndroid. (I've attached the file.)
Also, wouldn't there be a way to just add this to my system.ext2?

the apn list provided is sooooooooooo small. Probably because the phone is only available in the US. Not worth looking at but if you wanted to add it to your system.ext2
then
Code:
mkdir mountfolder
sudo mount -o loop system.ext2 mountfolder
Add the apns-conf.xml to /system/etc
then
Code:
sudo umount mountfolder

Well I went through it all but it didn't allow me to use USCC as my apn. Thanks for your help though Babijoee!

Well if the APN was provided within the apns-conf.xml it should auto-detect. Otherwise you can input it manually

Actually this is not correct the RUU_Bravo_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.19.707.7_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_126179_signed rom has an apns-conf.xml that looks like this ..

And as you can see there's SFA in there that is useful however this rom has no problem configuring the APNS for all of the Asia networks... I have yet to figure out where the configuration is hiding or if it is actually downloaded from the internet using a generic Internet apn named "internet" ..

AsiaWWE-apns.xml
I finally found it .. it seems that the framework-res.apk contains an apns.xml with all the details in it. It would appear that the old /system/etc/apns-conf.xml is depreciated in favour of res/xml/apns.xml in the framework-res.apk file ..
I have attached the Asian WWE apns.xml definition file for everyone in this region ..

nice find will look into it when time lets me

I tried it once again with no luck. I think the issue must have to do with the network being CDMA.

I'll have to have a look at what sidewindr suggested. It could be the root of the problem.

so in my endless quest to play with apn settings, i tried to replace the apn.xml file in the framework-res.apk and when i loaded the new apk, it kept crashing my phone.apk. once i put the original back, it loaded everything up again no problems.
babijoee, do we have an easy way to edit the apns to our liking yet? for testing or whatever...

[How To] Port Note keyboard to S2 [dedicated number row]

Christian ported this keyboard to S2 but this is a how to do it yourself, prepared it from scratch after a lot of research
1) Extract SamsungIME.apk from the ROM that you prefer that has the default S2 Samsung keyboard
2) decompile the apk
3) in the extracted/decompiled folder, browse to res\xml-sw320dp-hdpi\properties.xml
4) search for the following line and change the value to "true" as seen below
<Property key="USE_ADDTO_NUMBER_KEY_FIRST_LINE" value="true" type="bool" />
5) add the following line at the bottom of the same file
<Property key="NOTE_KEYPAD_TYPE" value="true" type="bool" />
6) next browse to /res/xml-sw320dp-hdpi/qwerty_en.xml and add the following code at the top. Blue color code is what was added to the top to add the numeric row. Modified file attached.
<Row android:keyHeight="0.0px" android:horizontalGap="0.0px" android:verticalGap="@dimen/qwerty_first_line_vertical_gap">
<Key android:keyWidth="100.0%p" android:codes="-257" android:keyLabel="StrEmpty" />
</Row>
<Row android:keyHeight="@dimen/qwerty_number_key_height" android:rowEdgeFlags="top">
<Key android:horizontalGap="@dimen/qwerty_first_col_horizontal_gap" android:codes="0x31" android:keyEdgeFlags="left" android:keyLabel="1" />
<Key android:codes="0x32" android:keyLabel="2" />
<Key android:codes="0x33" android:keyLabel="3" />
<Key android:codes="0x34" android:keyLabel="4" />
<Key android:codes="0x35" android:keyLabel="5" />
<Key android:codes="0x36" android:keyLabel="6" />
<Key android:codes="0x37" android:keyLabel="7" />
<Key android:codes="0x38" android:keyLabel="8" />
<Key android:codes="0x39" android:keyLabel="9" />
<Key android:codes="0x30" android:keyEdgeFlags="right" android:keyLabel="0" />
</Row>
<Row>
<Key android:horizontalGap="@dimen/qwerty_first_col_horizontal_gap" android:codes="113" androidopupCharacters="@string/default_umlaut_q" android:keyEdgeFlags="left" android:keyLabel="q" />
<Key android:codes="119" androidopupCharacters="@string/default_umlaut_w" android:keyLabel="w" />
<Key android:codes="101" androidopupCharacters="@string/default_umlaut_e" android:keyLabel="e" />
<Key android:codes="114" androidopupCharacters="@string/default_umlaut_r" android:keyLabel="r" />
<Key android:codes="116" androidopupCharacters="@string/default_umlaut_t" android:keyLabel="t" />
<Key android:codes="121" androidopupCharacters="@string/default_umlaut_y" android:keyLabel="y" />
<Key android:codes="117" androidopupCharacters="@string/default_umlaut_u" android:keyLabel="u" />
<Key android:codes="105" androidopupCharacters="@string/default_umlaut_i" android:keyLabel="i" />
<Key android:codes="111" androidopupCharacters="@string/default_umlaut_o" android:keyLabel="o" />
<Key android:codes="112" androidopupCharacters="@string/default_umlaut_p" android:keyEdgeFlags="right" android:keyLabel="p" />
</Row>
7) most of the ported keyboards did not have 5 rows in the symbols page. I preferred to match 5 rows on the symbols page like the note keyboard. So, I had to make changes to qwerty_number_symbols.xml file. I remapped the keys and hence attached xml file to the post.
8) Finally I preferred to increase the height of the numeric keys and so I change "qwerty_number_key_height" in dimens.xml to 48 from default value of 31 or 32
I change it both under \res\values\dimes.xml and also \res\values-sw320dp-hdpi\dimes.xml
9) decompile back the apk and then replace the original file with the modified apk file in \preload...\app\
Note: these are the steps to be performed to English language keyboard. For other languages, you need to edit the corresponding qwerty_xx.xml and qwerty_number_symbols_xx.xml file. Thanks to Christian for highlighting this.
Hoping not to missed anything. Got ideas from Korean website.

Corrected, thanks

Good job with the guide mate
But don't forget to type that they need to edit all the remaining querty_xx.xml (xx is the abbreviated language) or to edit their favorite language
Good job once again , I was too lazy to start making a guide for the extra row with the numbers

Does not seem possible because of the Samsung framework

Thanks for very useful guide. I could edit the code and got number row working on my Samsung default keyboard on Galaxy S3 Korean variant. I was looking for this guide from many days. Thanks again bro.
One thing, there are no keys beneath the number rows, can you guide how to add these ? only number rows are seen

Thanks.

You might want to check "sip_key_bg_number.9.png" and "sip_key_bg_number_qwerty.9.png" under res\drawable-sw3**** folders. For landscape layout, you need to also make changes in folder "res\drawable-sw***-land***" folders

thanks josephpatrick,
I deleted <Property key="USE_ADDTO_NUMBER_KEY_FIRST_LINE" value="true" type="bool" /> from properties.xml and the problem was solved !!
Can you help me, How to disable the secondary keylabels seen on the number buttons ?

Glad u figured it out. Normally the number row has a different background image/color.
For the symbol part, system/csc/feature.xml ==> remove following lines
<CscFeature_Sip_UseSymbolInCMKey>true</CscFeature_Sip_UseSymbolInCMKey>
<CscFeature_Sip_EnableSymbolInSecondary>de;en_US;en_GB</CscFeature_Sip_EnableSymbolInSecondary>
Use root explorer and edit the file

deleted above lines from feature.xml but the secondary labels on number keys are still present
Note : labels are seen only during alphabet view of keyboard, during symbol view it does not show up.

A few tricks with stock ROM J510FN (Android 6.0.1)

Here are a few tricks that work with stock ROM and some apps I use. Maybe you find something you like to use too.
Little note on text here, sometimes you see " " (spaces) appear in text/code. They shouldn't be there. You will know when you see them. Ignore!
A very quick summary.
What type of values can you find/change in Android?
0) Linux sysclt values, use sysctl -a to list them (stored in /proc/sys/...)
1) Android properties, use getprop en setprop, you find them in /etc/build.prop
2) Android Settings databases, use settings list [system][global][secure] etc
3) Samsung CSC values, specific for Samsung to hide or show extra GUI elements in /system/csc/feature.xml or /etc/feauture_default.xml
4) Samsung Floating features, like above in /etc/floating_feature.xml
How to find them (1+3)?
- root your phone (install busybox on Android 4 or less)
- goto adb shell and su
- find /system -type f -exec strings -f {} \; | grep "persist\."
if you are looking for perstist. variables. Or to find CSC values use "CscFeature_"
Caveats: some "persist." values are stored in /data/property folder. Keep that in mind.
For some you need to change /system/build.prop, some are Samsung CSC features with the /system/csc/feauture.xml file or Android system settings db.
For some I cannot remember if it was already visible without tweaks. Anyway lets go
I put feature.xml (with a lot of nonworking csc features too!!!), build.prop and disabled_services.txt in attachement.
Reboot after putting new feature.xml in /system/csc folder. Permissions of the file: root.root 644, same for build.prop
If your Samsung ROM has no csc feature create /system/csc and put content in other.xml instead of feature.xml

EDIT 19-01-2016: Added stock Camera from J7 which produces better quality picture.
Code:
- download SamsungCamera4_ESS_J7.apk
- adb push SamsungCamera4_ESS_J7.apk /sdcard/
- adb shell
- su
- mount -o remount,rw /system
- cd /system/priv-app/SamsungCamera4_ESS
- mv SamsungCamera4_ESS.apk SamsungCamera4_ESS.apk.J5
- mv oat oat.J5
- cp /sdcard/SamsungCamera4_ESS_J7.apk .
- chmod 644 SamsungCamera4_ESS_J7.apk
- stop
- sync
- reboot
After reboot start camera and clear settings first! Then do camera settings.
Remove Knox
To disable all Samsung Knox packages:
Code:
for p in $(pm list packages |grep nox) ; do echo $p | busybox awk -F ":" '{print $2}' | xargs pm disable ; done
pm disable com.samsung.klmsagent
pm disable com.policydm
To remove all Samsung Knox packages:
Code:
for p in $(pm list packages -f|grep nox) ; do echo $p | busybox awk -F "/" '{print "/"$2"/"$3"/"$4}' | xargs rm -r ; done
To remove all data from disabled packages:
Code:
for p in $(pm list packages -d) ; do echo $p | busybox awk -F ':' '{print "/data/data/" $2}' | xargs rm -r ; done
Disable Knox (hidden) services
Code:
stop
mv /system/container /system/container.OFF
rm /data/dal*/arm/*
sync
reboot
EDIT 09-02-2017: Added /etc/mixer-paths.xml for increased volume on speaker, headphone and handset speaker.
Finding the proper loudness values can be done from the shell command line with tinymix command.
example:
Code:
tinymix (see all audio objects)
tinymix "RX1 Digital Volume" (see all possible values for this audio object)
tinymix "RX1 Digital Volume" 86
Note that a value of 83 represents 0dB.
Some extra settings for system, global and secure db (/data/system/users/0/settings_system.xml etc)
Find yours with settings list system, global or secure. These settings are Android version (API23 in this case)
related. Beware of that when copying it from xda or anywhere else.
Code:
settings put system enable_mtp_settings 1
settings put system intelligent_sleep_mode 1
settings put system white_lockscreen_statusbar 0
#settings put system white_lockscreen_wallpaper 1
settings put system lockscreen_wallpaper_transparent 0 (1=hard to see statusbar)

#settings put global heads_up_snooze_length_ms 2000
#settings delete global heads_up_snooze_length_ms
settings put global heads_up_notifications_enabled 1
settings put global low_power_back_data_off 1 (drop data conn if low pwr
settings put global low_power_trigger_level 5 (5% batt is low pwr)
settings put secure button_key_light 0
settings put secure long_press_timeout 300
settings put secure location_mode 2
#0 = LOCATION_MODE_OFF
#1 = LOCATION_MODE_SENSORS_ONLY
#2 = LOCATION_MODE_BATTERY_SAVING
#3 = LOCATION_MODE_HIGH_ACCURACY
PS: Don't quote this post. Is is considered useless and annoying.
PS2: more Samsung MM mods/tweaks can be found in this xda thread.
PS3: added meizu camera mod apk with very good image quality (Smaller version here https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/themes-apps/camera-app-t3283962)

I disabled a lot of bloatware using the pm disable command (too much for you I guess). Also in attachement.

Cool, but when multi window is enabled, don.t you get the scroll bug in recents apps? (especially in the bottom part of the screen)

Yes the bug is there. Pull down notifications corrects it shortly. Multi Window on small screens is not my thing anyway.

Can I enable multi-window in J500F the same way? Would love to have two apps on screen simultaneously.
Perhaps, what's the scroll bug?

Added information of how to increase volume on different audio outputs with /etc/mixer-paths.xml and test it with the tinymix command.

tinymix "RX1 Digital Volume" 86 gives me tinymix is not executable.
chmod 755 does not return error but still not executable.
putting <ctl name="RX1/2/3 Digital Volume" value="86"/> or even 90 in the mixer_paths.xml and reboot does't increase the volume.
I'm missing something ?

What ROM are you on then? I have stock.

Dude I don't understand how to use this. Please help me. I really want these features.

Added my latest build.prop and init.qcom.post_boot.sh

Found Some Interesting Files in system/etc/sysconfig/

I am on SM-G975U1 so needless to say I am not rooted, but whilst perusing the system files I came across 2 Samsung .cert files; both of which are not installed in security certificates, or user certificates, though they can be. The other is nfcee_access.xml, which I'll get into the details of after the first 2 are described.
I tried installing them in User Certificates, first for Apps and VPN, which led to a constant warning in notifications so I removed them and tried installing them for Wi-Fi which got rid of the notification while having them installed. They don't seem to do anything so far, but their name is whats interesting, one is ASKS_INTER.crt, and the other is ASKS_ROOT.crt and they are both signed by Samsung Incorporated.
The subject and issuer details for both of them are -
CN = Samsung Cert INTER/Samsung Cert ROOT
OU = Mobile
O = Samsung Corporation
L = Suwon City
S = South Korea
C = KR
Basic Constraints are -
Subject Type=CA
Path Length Constraint=0
The key usage for both are -
Digital Signature, Certificate Signing, Off-line CRL Signing, and CRL Signing.
I de-compiled an .apk for a file viewer, added them to the existing .cert folder, then rebuilt them from scratch in Android Development, but I know too little about building apps so I was unable to install after compiling it.
I'm not sure what the certifications are for, but they aren't installed anywhere in the phone except the two locations I found them in which weren't app files; they seem to be just be a hidden extra.
The NFC_ACCESS file was found in another folder, I can't recall which, and is not a .cert file, but an .xml file. It contains multiple different signatures (let it be known I do not have a T-Mobile SIM card, nor did I flash to U1 from a T-Mobile variant of U) -
<!-- Samsung nfcextras Signature -->
<!-- Samsung Platform signature -->
<!-- T-Mobile development Signature -->
<!-- T-Mobile production Signature -->
<!-- Mobeewave Signature -->
Under <!-- Samsung Platform signature --> is -
<package android:name="org.simalliance.openmobileapi.service" />
<package android:name="com.android.se" />
<package android:name="com.skms.android.agent" />
<package android:name="com.samsung.android.spay" />
<package android:name="com.samsung.android.spayfw" />
<package android:name="com.sem.factoryapp" />
</signer>
The only package I don't have installed on my phone is <package android:name="org.simalliance.openmobileapi.service" />.
I'm not sure what this file could be for either, the only thing I can think of is adding the .xml signatures to the .apk of NFC or somewhere within the system NFC files. I am unsure of where the ASKS_INTER.crt and ASKS_ROOT.crt would go, maybe they are just for building apps and signing them?
Are any of these files of any value? What could they be for other than signing apps? From what I can tell they are standalones.

The ask_root.crt one is very eye brow raising. Can it be hex edited or decompiled? I know very little about all this. Maybe someone with more knowledge can chime in.
