Phonemod for cm9 PICO v2.1

[APP][MOD][CM9]Phonemod for cm9 PICO v2.1

Note: This might work for other devices. Test at your own risk.

Does not work on evervolv. Certain bugs are experienced.

Let me begin by saying how popular the HTC Explorer (codename Pico) is. Almost anyone who wants a budget smartphone has one. Its simply the best phone out there in the price range. Even the hardware specs aren't that bad. It is very much capable of running Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, although unofficially an unofficially ported version of Cyanogenmod 9.1.

Cyanogenmod 9.1 on an mdpi device such as the Explorer poses some problems/bugs caused due to scaling down of the graphics. One such problem is the caller id screen where by default, it is displayed as shown below in the attachments.

As you can see the caller picture is cut off by half and looks really ugly. I have developed a fix for this and now the caller id will display the full contact picture as shown in the picture.

v2.1 changelog (see attached image)
  • Added Enable status bar option during calls (Useful to check messages or other notifications during call).
  • Added Disable lights out option (Does not turn off light when near proximity sensor).
  • Added Exit to home on end call option (Disable going to call log after every call).
