Guest grifforama Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 I love the new 2.o CDMA ROM. Man, it is quick. I would love, now, to remove the curved grey bar in the lockscreen apk, which I am led to believe is com.htc.resources.apk and is located in system/framework within that is a folder res/drawable-port-480x320, which contains the 4 .png files. Thing is, if I simply remove them, it throws the phone in a continuous loop when booting up, so obviously it is looking for something to go int here. Is there any way anyone can tell me what should be there if I simply want to remove the grey bar ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Fleming Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 Slightly off topic, but if you push the eclair lockscreen apk to a 1.5 rom, would it work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pulser Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 Slightly off topic, but if you push the eclair lockscreen apk to a 1.5 rom, would it work? I doubt it, but if you've got a full Nandroid backup, and know the adb commands to do the push, then you can give it a go. Just make sure you have a way to get into Nandroid (ie. fastboot/patched recovery) as I think you'll need to get the old one back on, since apk files are not normally backwards compatible like that- hence the SDK version errors running newer software on our Heros, we need 2.1 to get back up there...

Guest markspark100 Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 You will need to resign the update.zip before you can apply it to the phone otherwise it will bootloop.

See: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=471586 Hi Mark, Are you referring to this thread about the lockscreen? Just as I'm not sure what you mean about signing the update.zip. I thought the OP was trying to add an APK to the system. Hold on, I think I know what you mean. Yeah. You'd need to resign the APK to work with 1.5. I'll leave this here to clarify it for the OP. Well spotted! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well from what grifforama said I assumed he was just trying to remove the grey ark from the standard lock screen by removing the images which is effectively making his own theme. If he wants to do that and then apply the update he'll need to sign the update.zip otherwise it'll just boot loop...won't it i've never tried without signing an update.zip I may have completley misunderstood what was being asked though :S Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah yeah I'd never really thought of just modifying the .apk and pushing it to the phone, I've always made an update.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
