Random UI .qml patches info request
asked 2017-09-22 16:23:14 +0200
Hi, I'm preparing myself to switch to Xperia X and have several questions on what files I should patch to get some things more convenient. Could you help?
- change date format in sms list and in sms thread (I want to have full dates a-la 22.09.2017, not Yesterday, or Friday)
- how can I hook incoming phone number name look-up? Suppose I have a .txt file with many local phone numbers of organizations. If the incoming number is not within Contacts list I want it to parse that .txt
- how can I add a 'delete' cross on incoming sms on events screen? Nowadays banks often send 'login' sms when I log into online banking. I would like to hit 'delete' when I receive them without going into sms app
Thanks!
I've tried editing the files responsible for date/time formatting in both SMS and Email, as they use the same mechanism, which is one of Jolla's inventions and as such, there is little to no documentation on the subject. I've tried to replace it with a different technique which works for current time and date but yields odd results in SMS or Email UI - suffice to say, I came up with nothing!.

No idea at all on your 2nd point, it's not something I've looked at before, sorry.
For point 3, take a look at a patch from Ingvix, found on Openrepos. It allows either dismissal of the notification or to delete the notification without entering the application.
