[GUIDE][HOW-TO]Add Invisible Power Button to Status Bar - Sony Cross-Device General

Heya Guys Wassup
Today i Am Going to Teach You How To Add Invisible Power Button In The Status Bar
What it actually does is
it will add an invisible power button on the Clock on the Top Right of the Status Bar
By touching it once you can screen off
and by long pressing it you can access the power menu​​
Ready???
So Here We Go:angel:
STEP 1-Pull SystemUI.apk from Your Phone
STEP 2 -Decompile it
STEP 3-Open SystemUI/res/layout/status_bar.xml
STEP 4-Find These Lines At The End
Code:
<ImageView android:layout_gravity="top|left|center" android:id="@id/rounded_corner_ul" android:visibility="gone" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:src="@drawable/rounded_corner_ul" />
<ImageView android:layout_gravity="top|right|center" android:id="@id/rounded_corner_ur" android:visibility="gone" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:src="@drawable/rounded_corner_ur" />
</com.android.systemui.statusbar.phone.PhoneStatusBarView>
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
STEP 5-Add This Line
Code:
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.policy.KeyButtonView android:layout_gravity="right" android:id="@id/home" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:src="@drawable/screen_lock" android:layout_toRightOf="@id/recent_apps" android:contentDescription="@string/accessibility_back" systemui:keyCode="26" systemui:keyRepeat="false" systemui:glowBackground="@drawable/ic_sysbar_highlight" androidrientation="vertical" />
So It Should Look Like This
Code:
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.policy.KeyButtonView android:layout_gravity="right" android:id="@id/home" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:src="@drawable/screen_lock" android:layout_toRightOf="@id/recent_apps" android:contentDescription="@string/accessibility_back" systemui:keyCode="26" systemui:keyRepeat="false" systemui:glowBackground="@drawable/ic_sysbar_highlight" androidrientation="vertical" />
<ImageView android:layout_gravity="top|left|center" android:id="@id/rounded_corner_ul" android:visibility="gone" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:src="@drawable/rounded_corner_ul" />
<ImageView android:layout_gravity="top|right|center" android:id="@id/rounded_corner_ur" android:visibility="gone" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:src="@drawable/rounded_corner_ur" />
</com.android.systemui.statusbar.phone.PhoneStatusBarView>
STEP 5-Save It And Close it
STEP 6-Copy The attached png to res/drawable-xhdpi and drawable/xxhdpi ( if available )
for hdpi devices add the png to drawable -hdpi
http://d-h.st/avH
STEP 6-Recompile and Sign Your Apk
To Use Copy To system/app with Permissions RW-R-R
Reboot And Enjoy And Dont Forget To Press The THANKS Button:laugh::good:
CREDITS
@Leo For the png and inspiration

What it actually does is
it will add an invisible power button on the Clock on the Top Right of the Status Bar
By touching it once you can screnn off
and by long pressing it you can access the power menu

I just tried with my LG-P500 running cm-11, SysytemUI.apk and got this error while compiling it. Its showing "id with value @id/home" not matched", see the log. Appreciate your kind help.
Edit: Solve it by adding manually adding ids into value/ids.xml. Will try and see

Hmmm...one simple question....what if the user use center clock? does the touch point also move to center or it stay on the top right of status bar?

Guide 1
For my cm7 status bar I used
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1953934
although it should work on stock roms too
Follow guide 1 - its simple just requires add smali and line in status_bar_expanded where you want the header
The header will look like screenshot but without the brightness slider or icon and iv also modded the clear button too so you wont have that - will just be date and time

If you want to try something more complicated you can try the following and will look like

This is why you cant blindly follow guides - you must have some level of understanding and be able to adapt code to your needs
you can try just putting this
under
Code:
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.ExpandedView android:orientation="vertical" android:focusable="true" android:descendantFocusability="afterDescendants"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
put
Code:
<LinearLayout android:gravity="center_vertical" android:orientation="horizontal" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.StatusBarJellyHeaderView android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>
put the smali in the given location in the guide
dunno if it will work - if not follow the other more complicated guide for stock roms
without an understanding of what you are doing and how to fix any compiling errors and so on you will not succed - especially if you try guide 2 because you will get errors unless you manage to do everything perfect first time

you should already have the smali if you have lidroid - I was just providing it as a reference if you dont or its different
search for a guide - I cant spoon food you everything - You will have to learn to search and do things yourself - sorry
As a clue - you remove a line from the app you want to hide in androidmanifest.xml and you add some lines into settings apk in xml/settings.xml

Tut on how to Add Bravia/ X-reality/ Super-vivid​
Hello Guys
Every one asked me on how to add These engines to settings
SO here i got a very small tut on how to add these settings to you app as shown in the Picture below
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Requirements :-
1. Apktool or you can try one of my tool here
2. Java jdk installed
3. Framework-res.apk, SemcGenericUxpRes.apk and Settings.apk
4. Patience with good mind
Now lets start work mates
Step;-1
Download the Apk tool and place as per your requirement
install the Framework first . ( if you are using the tool then place at the location as provided and run script )
If you dont have a script then follow this code
Code:
apktool if framework-res.apk
and
apktool if SemcGenericUxpRes.apk
Now Your Framework got installed and you need to proceed for Step :-2
Step;-2
Now you need to De-compile the SEttings.apk
If you have tool then there is no need of code. If you Dont have try this
Code:
apktool d Settings.apk
After the settings.apk got extracted
move to res->xml->somc_add_display_settings.xml
open it using NotePad++
You will find something like this
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<PreferenceScreen
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:settings="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/com.android.settings">
<com.sonymobile.settings.preference.CheckBoxPreference android:title="@string/swiqi_strings_swiqi2_txt" android:key="swiqi2" android:summary="@string/swiqi_strings_swiqi_desc_txt" android:defaultValue="true" settings:dependOnSystemProperty="ro.service.swiqi2.supported" settings:before="first" settings:valueOfSettingsSystem="com.sonymobile.swiqi2_mode" />
<com.sonymobile.settings.preference.CheckBoxPreference android:title="@string/swiqi_strings_swiqi3_txt" android:key="swiqi3" android:summary="@string/swiqi_strings_swiqi_desc_txt" android:defaultValue="true" settings:dependOnSystemProperty="ro.service.swiqi3.supported" settings:before="first" settings:valueOfSystemProperty="persist.service.swiqi3.enable" />
<com.sonymobile.settings.preference.CheckBoxPreference android:title="@string/glove_mode_checkbox_title" android:key="glove_mode" android:summary="@string/glove_mode_checkbox_summary" android:defaultValue="false" settings:dependOnResource="@android:bool/config_enable_glove_mode" settings:before="brightness" settings:valueOfSystemProperty="persist.sys.touch.glove_mode" settings:valueOfSettingsSystem="com.sonymobile.touch.glove_mode" />
<com.sonymobile.settings.preference.IntentPreference android:key="white_balance" settings:dependOnIsValidIntent="true" settings:after="brightness" settings:hasMetaData="true">
<intent android:targetPackage="com.sonymobile.whitebalance" android:action="android.intent.action.MAIN" android:targetClass="com.sonymobile.whitebalance.WhiteBalanceActivity" />
</com.sonymobile.settings.preference.IntentPreference>
<com.sonymobile.settings.preference.RemovePreference settings:targetKey="wallpaper" />
<com.sonymobile.settings.preference.RemovePreference settings:dependOnIsValidIntent="true" settings:targetKey="wifi_display">
<intent android:targetPackage="com.sonymobile.tvout.wifidisplay" android:targetClass="com.sonymobile.tvout.wifidisplay.WfdStarterActivity" />
</com.sonymobile.settings.preference.RemovePreference>
</PreferenceScreen>
So all you need is to add these lines
Code:
<com.sonymobile.settings.preference.IntentPreference android:key="image_enhancer" settings:dependOnIsValidIntent="true" settings:dependOnSystemProperty="ro.service.xrfm.supported" settings:before="first" settings:hasMetaData="true" settings:valueOfSystemProperty="persist.service.xrfm.mode">
<intent android:targetPackage="com.sonymobile.imageenhancer" android:targetClass="com.sonymobile.imageenhancer.ImageEnhancerSettings" />
</com.sonymobile.settings.preference.IntentPreference>
If you add you will view something like this (Red Lines Are added one )
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<PreferenceScreen
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:settings="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/com.android.settings">
[COLOR="Red"] <com.sonymobile.settings.preference.IntentPreference android:key="image_enhancer" settings:dependOnIsValidIntent="true" settings:dependOnSystemProperty="ro.service.xrfm.supported" settings:before="first" settings:hasMetaData="true" settings:valueOfSystemProperty="persist.service.xrfm.mode">
<intent android:targetPackage="com.sonymobile.imageenhancer" android:targetClass="com.sonymobile.imageenhancer.ImageEnhancerSettings" />
</com.sonymobile.settings.preference.IntentPreference>
[/COLOR] <com.sonymobile.settings.preference.RemovePreference settings:dependOnSystemProperty="ro.service.xrfm.supported" settings:targetKey="swiqi3" />
<com.sonymobile.settings.preference.CheckBoxPreference android:title="@string/swiqi_strings_swiqi2_txt" android:key="swiqi2" android:summary="@string/swiqi_strings_swiqi_desc_txt" android:defaultValue="true" settings:dependOnSystemProperty="ro.service.swiqi2.supported" settings:before="first" settings:valueOfSettingsSystem="com.sonymobile.swiqi2_mode" />
<com.sonymobile.settings.preference.CheckBoxPreference android:title="@string/swiqi_strings_swiqi3_txt" android:key="swiqi3" android:summary="@string/swiqi_strings_swiqi_desc_txt" android:defaultValue="true" settings:dependOnSystemProperty="ro.service.swiqi3.supported" settings:before="first" settings:valueOfSystemProperty="persist.service.swiqi3.enable" />
<com.sonymobile.settings.preference.CheckBoxPreference android:title="@string/glove_mode_checkbox_title" android:key="glove_mode" android:summary="@string/glove_mode_checkbox_summary" android:defaultValue="false" settings:dependOnResource="@android:bool/config_enable_glove_mode" settings:before="brightness" settings:valueOfSystemProperty="persist.sys.touch.glove_mode" settings:valueOfSettingsSystem="com.sonymobile.touch.glove_mode" />
<com.sonymobile.settings.preference.IntentPreference android:key="white_balance" settings:dependOnIsValidIntent="true" settings:after="brightness" settings:hasMetaData="true">
<intent android:targetPackage="com.sonymobile.whitebalance" android:action="android.intent.action.MAIN" android:targetClass="com.sonymobile.whitebalance.WhiteBalanceActivity" />
</com.sonymobile.settings.preference.IntentPreference>
<com.sonymobile.settings.preference.RemovePreference settings:targetKey="wallpaper" />
<com.sonymobile.settings.preference.RemovePreference settings:dependOnIsValidIntent="true" settings:targetKey="wifi_display">
<intent android:targetPackage="com.sonymobile.tvout.wifidisplay" android:targetClass="com.sonymobile.tvout.wifidisplay.WfdStarterActivity" />
</com.sonymobile.settings.preference.RemovePreference>
</PreferenceScreen>
Now you are done adding these things just compile now
Code:
apktool b Settings
If you have my tool it will compile/ zipalign/ sign
So now you are finally done with settings and you got ready to replace
Here is the main thing you need to do :-
Download the Bravia zip Provided at bottom
Place Your compiled Settings.apk at this zip (*.zip->system->priv-app->)
and Flash the Zip now you are done
Never mind That Your Rom is Odexed Or Deodexed This flash script will delete the *.odex file
If you use this mod just Mention me have fun

yes this works for all [4.0+] and works with your device too...
yes boot-loader is required so pics work goog
if you had unlocked not a problem pics may not show much difference...
but mode of these works good with videos.
Soon I will use this lines on my future ROM using AOSP [kk/LP?] to acro S... Maybe will work.. Maybe not... Will need much MUCH modding/hacking certificates to make that work with non stock sources but I'm have hope it will works
I'm crazy.. But nothing is impossible ;D
Sent from my LT26w using XDA Free mobile app

Code:
apktool b Settings
