Yo all,
If you did not follow all of my off-topic posts on the cm7 thread lately, here's my little x-mas present for you...
I've been asked a couple times if I could regroup all of the cm7 tweaks and mods in one spot so here it is!
It's no an exhaustive list as it mainly covers the stuff from the last 2-3 months; I did what I could on this with the limited time I had for this today.., but I think it's a good start and that it should keep you guys busy for a while anyway. I also did this for my own personal recollection and for future quick reference and access.
Notes:
- I always do my best to give credits to whoever it is due, but if I forgot to do it anywhere, please let me know and I'll do the correction.
- Please play it safe and before you try any of this, make (nand) backups, undo zips and remember that you do it at your own risk.
- As usual, please do not full-quote my long posts.
So here we go:
Tips on how to Remove Ads from apk
How to disable Search button tweak
1- Faster screen orientation rotation tweak AND 2- ZipAlign at boot (zip included)
How to enable lockscreen rotation tweak
Battery fix for red lenses Defy - [for Defy+ build installs] (zip included)
My thread on How to Make Your Phone a Little Safer - The Easy Way [using hosts file]
My mod on how to increase the attachment size limit of default cm7 Email.apk
App suggestion: an alternative task switcher (in notification panel)
...I'm working on this but app has problems so READ THE NOTES CAREFULLY
How to use (some) of the JB screen transition animations to cm7
How to use the ICS style date/time/day layout in notification panel on cm7(and remove date from statusbar when its expanded)
And one post above, the OP of my own (WizAL) cm7 theme thread
Note on recompiling the phone apk [this one is basically a reminder for myself]
My Cm7's Phone.apk mod for bigger contact picture (zip attached) AND
Mms.apk with 7-line max compose window size + no smiley key on KB (zip att.)
My thread on tips and tricks regarding PDroid (increased your private info security)
Cm7's Mms.apk with bigger/better quality mms pic attachments (zip attached) AND an
alternative Mms.apk with same tweak (zip attached also) [credits to llamatron]
2 must-have apps suggestion to increase privacy/security on your phone
How to use a custom script in order to get Droidwall to work while using DroidVPN (read post#2)
How to get my favorite text font
OK well, that was basically what I could put together from the latest 1/5th of all my posts here on xda...
For sure there are some missing and I also have a few new ones and writeups in mind; so we'll see what future holds in this regards.
But if you want more, you can start by reading through my threads; this one for example has quite a few tweaks and apks included. And on post #2, there's a guide on how to make the statusbar transparent [although still on my todo list is to add to it a guide on properly create/modify patch-9 pngs - coz I still see quite a few people having problems with that ]
* * * MOST IMPORTANT NOTE FOR THE END: * * *
Some of the old (pre-September 2012) flashable zips I've posted might, or rather, will no longer work on recent cm7 builds. So PLEASE READ THIS and find out how to correct/redo them to work properly:
My thread on how to make CWM recovery flashable zips
Sorry, but I will not go through 900+ posts and redo all my zips... at least not now.
So let's all rejoice that we've survived 2012 doomsday, I wish a merry x-mas and happy holidays season to all of you.
Cheers,
/AL

Anyhow, I hope you enjoy them.

Thanks again!
This is/was another very easy tweak to do.... well... I mean, I still had to experiment a lot in order to get it right...
And even though it is not perfect either: since I did this very simply, [i.e. did not redo the app layout appart from contact pic size] the call status on the right side [what replaces the call duration timer] might get truncated in some occasions. So for example, you might see: "on ho" D) or something similar when placing the call on hold... No biggy for me since my theme has a coloured statusbar icon for that and even custom dialer background color for it... but I just wanted to tell people..
I'm sure that you know how to find out what I did, but for other members; all there was to do for this is:
In the Phone.apk's res\layout\call_card_person.xml
Change this:
Code:
<RelativeLayout android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="172.0dip">
<ImageView android:id="@id/photo" android:background="@drawable/incall_photo_border_lg" android:layout_width="172.0dip" android:layout_height="166.0dip" android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" android:contentDescription="@string/contactPhoto" />
To:
Code:
<RelativeLayout android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="[COLOR="Red"]248[/COLOR].0dip">
<ImageView android:id="@id/photo" android:background="@drawable/incall_photo_border_lg" android:layout_width="[COLOR="red"]248.0[/COLOR]dip" android:layout_height="[COLOR="red"]240.0[/COLOR]dip" android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" android:contentDescription="@string/contactPhoto" />
Note that anything bigger and you'll have more layout overlaps and it gets uggly
And you probably know the also excellent software Winmerge useful to compare two files or even two folders...
And as I'm sure you are aware that, Google Sync limits the size of contacts pictures to 96x96px on Gingerbread; so anything too big will look pixelated. Personally, I do not sync my contact pics with Google, so bigger size in the dialer looks fine [as long as my original contact pics are of a reasonable size].
OK well, enough on this tweak.
Cheers.

I could but doing it for you would not help you learn anything... And I already gave a hand, an arm and a leg writing a detailed guide about it... Have you read/tried any of it? Please read the first post again, find where I gave a link related to your question and read some more.. If you have problems then, at least try to figure out which file from YOUR phone has to be modded and post it on THAT thread.
Thanks for your understanding...
Try to see it from my side...: it seems that the more I give, the more people ask to be spoon fed...
;
Please do your part first and experiment; you'll be glad you did once you succeed. Just nand backup first...
Added an update for Droidwall to work properly on 3G networks (bottom of OP).
...and a couple others ine earlier which I did not feel the need to post about again...
But the Droidwall one might be very usefull to some...
Enjoy!

This looks incredible, I'll be using this. Thanks mate
Im stuck at this step. If I press restore widget...I get to the RSS Widget Config. Pls guide
Setting up the Lolli-Tab home screen
------------------------------------------------------------
Tap: Tap to restore widget (middle of screen) and load the LT_Home_screen template from the SD Card option.
If this is a fresh installation of Nova Launcher grand it permission to Create widget and allow access,
Tap: resize or tap to start and load the LT_Home_screen from the SD Card option.

I will revise that step, it's unclear, sorry
If you load the LT_settings in Nova and exit the program, you already can tap: resize or tap to start (middle of the screen) and load the LT_Home_screen from the SD Card option in Zooper.
Please let me know if you got it setup

Got it working now - was using Zooper Free and not Zooper Pro. thx
I'm struggling with sizing the Home Screen widget as Zooper widget sizes are limited. Nor does the Zooper scaling help.
Pls advise whether I'm doing cowrrect procedure.
1. Open a new widget
2. Select Zooper widget
3. select size (tried 1x1; 4 x 4; 4x2; 6x2 )
4. Then tap to resize or start
5. select sd card/LT Home Screen
6. Exit
Where do I go wrong?
Wrong thread
All working . Thx
Hey Mokum,
Very nice theme!
I'd like to use it on my 10inch Asus Transformer, but I don't get the homescreen so crispy as you do.
Is that because of the dpi? Or the resolution?
Please reply!

I looked it up for you and it's '1280 x 800 pixels (~149 ppi pixel density)'

Separate widgets?
Hello,
fantastic job, even the other system info widget on the other thread, and very accurate explanation about how to configure everything.
From my point of view I see only one problem: such widgets are perfect for landscape but practically unusable for portrait, and having a Tab S 8.4 the last one is my most used mode.
I don't know if I'm asking too much or you already have tought about... Maybe you like my idea and you'll decide to do for yourself first
1) What if you make many different widgets instead of a big one? In such way you would give maximum modularity to them. It would be possible to use in portrait too, people could change order, etc.
The same for the info widget on the other thread.
2) What if you add customization using ZWUtilities even with these widgets like Meteo, Music, News, Calendar etc.?
3) What if you make at least "blank" 4x1, 4x2, 4x4 widgets, where "blank" means pastel coloured header with 3 stripes on the left upper corner, and white or dark background below... Luckily always with ZWUtilities customization to have a coherent theme.
To be sincere, I'm already trying to extrapolate elements by the big widget you already made, simply I personally miss the time to go fast on this job, so if you like the idea and you want to extend by yourself your own work I'll be happy too
However, really congratulations again for what you already made! And sorry for my english, isn't my primary language and I hope my ideas was enough clear.
