I'm starting to make my own android roms and i was wondering if it was possible to change the default android settings you get when you flash a rom. For example, when you first boot, animations are already turned on and orientation is turned off (unchecked) by default.
I've got an .apk manager so i've had a feeble attempt at going through .xml files in the decompiled Settings.apk. "res/xml/ sound_and_ display_ settings. xml" had the most potential but i couldn't see any "enable/disable" options.
My OEM's preloaded rom is almost-nearly stock, apart from 2 things:
1. White background on "system settings" interface and not the default holo. Cant that be changed to default?
2. Ribbon effect instead of flash-light in holo effect, which tbh is quite annoying, because the ribbon effect is also quite large and in slower animation speed so that,s 1 second of frustation everytime i scroll to the end. (Yea, 1 second isnt much but, add those up and it gets annoying really fast)
How can these be changed back to default without installing a custom rom?
I've had my Droid X for a couple of weeks now and am still acquainting myself with things.
I downloaded Instant Upload (a nice, simple FTP app) that allows me to upload individual files from my "Files" browser directly to a web server... but I'm curious to know if I can add this as an option in my "Share via..." menu?
The "Share" menu has a bunch of options I will likely never use, but I do use some of them, and additionally I would like to add certain apps such as Instant Upload to the mix. Is it possible to manually modify this list?
I'm considering flashing Clockwork but first I want to know if there is a way to back up some apps and settings so I don't have to start completely from scratch.
Are there any apps in the market that would give me this ability?
how I can reset the default app settings. For example, using Blinkfeed on my M8, when I tap on a link, the first time I was asked which browser should be used. How can I reset Blinkfeed, or any other app to ask me again which app to use? Is it always an app setting, or can I centrally control that behavior?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am Cooking ROM based on 4.0.4... There is Data and Time in Settings... it is set by Default to 12 Hour Fomrat. You have to check the 24 Hr Time Format to enable it.
My Problem is that there is a bug in my ROM with status bar which isnt accepting 12 hr Time. Status bar Force Closes non Stop until I go to Settings>Date & Time and change it to 24 Hr format.
Being ROM Cooker I dont want my users to see the first screen to appear as "SystemUI has Closed" after Flashing Fresh ROM...
The only solution I have to prevent is to set the time to 24 Hr by default. i.e enable Check ON like some other options in Settings which are checked by default..
I saw everyhere in Settings.apk but there is no place I could change it..
in res/xml I saw a file date_time_prefs.xml.. it has code below
Code:
<CheckBoxPreference android:title="@string/date_time_24hour" android:key="24 hour" android:defaultValue="true" />
I added the last line android:defaultValue="true" to set it to default checked but still after a fresh install it isnt checked..
How and where I can set it to default checked?
I hear that some kernals are better than others and I assumed they change when you change your ROM but I'm not sure. I feel like I would have better battery life with a better kernel.
View 1 Replies View RelatedContext: Today im investigating how works android classes:
android.provider.Settings.Secure and android.provider.Settings.System
both works over settings.db into
data/data/com.google.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db.
There is something that surprised me:
When I had never changed one of settings, for example LOCK_PATTERN_ENABLED, the method:
getString(ContentResolver resolver, String name) returned null.
By default lock pattern is disabled when i activated it, method returned 1 and then when disabled returned 0.
My question: is true that when you havent changed the value of a setting, the system goes to look for its default value out of settings.db? and is true that this value at settings.db until you change it is null?
I've read some post about it, but no one working against api. For who may be interested: [URL] .......
I decompiled Settings.apk, SettingsProvider.apk and Phone.apk. There you can find some bools.xml where are stablished default values for some settings I've not found yet every setting I need.

Ok that means i dont care about the language my apps will be displayed in as long as it is english "which should be in every rom.."
But i do care about the region they are set in... means when i start MIUI News/Weather (geniewidget.apk) I want to see News from Germany and temperature in Celsius..
When I play "who-becomes-rich" I want Euro for currency! and so on ...
Is there any way to set the region like that ? (build.prop or anything else..?)

I cleaned a bunch of files with Titanium Backup and have have backups of the uninstalled apps which include my default gallery (I had another gallery app), Homescreen Launcher and some others.
By mistakenly I reset my phone to factory settings and now after resetting I cannot access any functions. Since I had deleted the launcher. I am having the files of the launcher though but since the phone has USB Debugging turned off and Google Account not set, I am not able to do anything!! Is there any update.zip kind of file to reinstall the launcher? I am using Motorola Fire XT311 which has locked bootloader so no Nandroids too !!

View 1 Replies View RelatedI currently use a HTC HD Mini (Photon) running the SCREAM ROM by Ling Gan. It has a few bugs for most of which there is either a workaround or fix but there is the one problem which has remained unsolved: the default wallpaper on everything BUT the home and lockscreens cannot be changed. It is of a tree in a meadow under a blue sky and when rotated to landscape changes to some smiling chinese lady in the "settings" submenu. Doesn't hamper use much but it is quite annoying.
I have tried a number of solutions some of which resulted in my having to reflash and others did nothing. I post this here because I think it is a CM7 issue. The ROM developers have so far been unable to post a solution within the thread and I am aware that a fix for similar problems on CM9 ROMs exists using ADB to edit framework-res.apk. I felt it was time the problem was tackled by the wider XDA fam. Used google translate to look on the chinese site where the ROM is native to (mobile-kon) but found nothing as well.

I have a MK802 II. Unfortunately my TV seems to have issue with 720p, it works perfectly on 576p. ICS is set to boot into 720p and so I would have all the time after booting to revert through the setting applet to 576p. Is there any way (a config file? a kernel option?) to have the OS start by default in 576p?

I have Go Launcher installed and would like to change the default icon for an app in the tray. When I press on the icon now it gives me the choice to replace it with a custom icon and that is what I would like to do. I actually would like to use the icon for the default calendar (on my Bionic) for the icon for this app but I can not seem to locate the calendar icon.
