Guest bearded1 Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 you know - i have absolutely no idea what you fellows are talking about but no doubt something mega-awesome will appear as a result. :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tdroza Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 I've now changed the battery & charging icons from the green gingerbread themed icon to the new blue honeycomb icon to match the others. I've updated the framework-res.apk on my Dropbox here (this is a patched version of the one from MCR r7) - as before please only apply this if you know what to do with the file, and know how to recover if anything should go wrong(!) I don't know how to create an update.zip for Clockwork, but I'm sure someone around here does. Or if you just want the icons to patch to your own framework-res.apk I've added the 14 battery icons to the others in this zip. Updated screenshot below...

Guest merlin_1492 Posted February 25, 2011 Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 if someone do any tutorial of how to install this (with no crashesXD), it would be much better... :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sir Gash Posted February 25, 2011 Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 if someone do any tutorial of how to install this (with no crashesXD), it would be much better... :huh: Make sure USB Debugging is on and you have ADB on your PC (e.g. C:\android\tools). Then follow these steps: - Copy the framework-res.apk of your choice to the same folder as adb.exe for convenience. - You can copy the following code into a batch file (e.g. PushFramework.bat) or just start a Command Prompt and type these commands in one by one: adb shell stop adb remount adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk framework-res.apk.bak adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk adb reboot This also makes a backup of your current framework file so you can just push it back with the following if something goes wrong: adb shell stop adb remount adb push framework-res.apk.bak /system/framework/framework-res.apk adb reboot Job done.

Thanks tdroza, it looks great now and will keep me happy until a true Honeycomb port :) I have modified your version and added in the fancy animations/transitions and also removed the nVidia wallpapers from /res/drawable which makes the file 3MB smaller! You can get it from my Dropbox here: framework-res.apk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dagrim1 Posted February 25, 2011 Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 Hmmm, why is it that every wallpaper I try on the vega (including the one posted here by wobblydoggy) is blurry on my vega... Is that just how it is or do you guys actually get nice n sharp wallpapers? (Running launcherpro and doesn't seem to matter how I 'cut' the wallpaper...)

Is that just how it is or do you guys actually get nice n sharp wallpapers? (Running launcherpro and doesn't seem to matter how I 'cut' the wallpaper...) My understanding is the stock gallery is only 16bit colours(?). The Modaco ROM has a 32bit colour replacement for this. But if like me you you wish to keep stock ROM a workaround is install a 3rd party gallery from the market such as fish bowl photo viewer and apply the wallpaper within this program.

Is that just how it is or do you guys actually get nice n sharp wallpapers? (Running launcherpro and doesn't seem to matter how I 'cut' the wallpaper...) The wallpaper handling in Android sucks! Try this one instead, it is the original image resized to 1200x600 then I increased the canvas size to 1200x1024: Then install Wallaby and apply the wallpaper (make sure you DO NOT select 'Resize image to screen height'): Android Market AppBrain Edited February 25, 2011 by Sir Gash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest newbe5 Posted February 25, 2011 Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 I really like the menu fly-in animations, but I HATE the screen transition flipping. Could someone tell me how to change this back within the .spk please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what the filenames are, but you could always find a transition you like and copy into your framework-res.apk anim folder yourself. Have a look at this thread, with videos! More are available here. EDIT: The above link has the filenames you need so just copy over the ones you don't like (on 2nd post) Edited February 25, 2011 by Sir Gash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest newbe5 Posted February 25, 2011 Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 I have modified the framework-res.apk to change some of the animations to nice, smooth swipe/face animations which I really like (as well as keeping the menu box fly-in effect) and also re-themed a large amount of the rest of the file to make it more blue/honeycomb-esque. There are some more things I would like to do, but it tied the whole thing together nicely IMO. I've replaced the fly-in option menu's with blacker gingerbread/honeycomb ones and replaced checkboxes etc. It still needs a little work, but it is working nicely for me. Let mw know what you think guys, I'll possibly post some screenies tomorrow. Zeb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Solidare Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 Nice work on all the framework mods guys. Heres my effort for anyone that fancies a try. Im using Dan's r8a with the normal status bar. framework includes - Modified stock Vega 'home', 'back' and 'settings' icons - Honeycomb battery icons - alphaola rom animations - Modified unlock sliders - Custom notification dropdown using a mix of stock and Honeycomb - Modified USB android images from Honeycomb If it doesn't work, you should just be able to push your previous framework using adb while its stuck booting, so be sure to do a backup. Loving the Honeycomb boot screen aswell, anyone that ain't got it - get it. :huh: top job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only problem I have is the toaster pop-ups are messed up: As you can see, the frame for the pop-up is offset too low and it is too small making it unreadable when there is anything on screen when you get a pop-up: Cheers Edited February 26, 2011 by Sir Gash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll try and fix all of this and add some more stuff to it tomorrow when I get some time :huh: My aim is to have a full Honeycomb theme so I'm gonna try and replace as much as I can to make it look nice.

Guest cawhite Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 HI, I go through this whole process and everything seems ok within the dos commands but nothing changes on the device. I am in USB debugging mode with the Vega on. I am using Launcher Pro if this could be anything to do with it? I would be grateful for any help with this issue. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Hi cawhite You could try this http://android.modaco.com/content/advent-v...ega-tools-v3-0/ (Try and do a nandroid backup from clockwork recovery first, pays to play it safe) Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
