after i've installed HyperDroidGBX-v11 i go to storage settings and i've got there total space: 151mb and available space 118mb. after android restores all my programs i have only 40mb free space and after 1-2 weeks i've no storage space. i'd like to have about 100mb more for programs.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Richy99:
sounds about right if you are installing apps on the internal nand but it does say to use a 150CWM partition not a 250, that should gain you an extra 100meg straight off
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bulla666:
i don't understand exactly what do you mean. can you just tell me how can i get more storage for apps please? is it possible at all?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Richy99:
you are using the wrong partition size for thew rom!!! you are lsoing 100meg by using the 250CWM you need a 150CWM as per the rom instructions...reflash using a 150CWM partition size and you will more free space

also sounds like you dont have an ext3/4 partition for use of a2sd
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bulla666:
ok. i've changed recovery_250M to 150M and i have 67mb more. what is going to happen if i change 150M to 100M? do i get an extra 50mb free space?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] akapaul26:
The ROM probably wont load if you use a partition lower than recommended then you will have more problems. If you follow directions of the developer you will be fine.

thanks guys. now i know how it works. i've had that before Eelkede but i didn't know why i have to change size to lower but now i understand, so everything is clear ;) thanks!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] 3pcssuits:
I personally use the 100meg recovery size as the system size for v11 is very small have not ran into any problems. I believe he uses the 100meg file and recommends it.

I'm asking this for a friend, he currently doesn't have internet access...

Well he's buying a droid 2 from one of his friends, and he has METROPCS

would he be able to use that phone on metropcs with no problems?

what would be the instructions to do this? or is there a thread consisting the instructions? Sorry for the questions, I'm a Galaxy S Vibrant user, and we usually have stickies on how to root/unlock etc.

Thanks for the help in advance.

Check locally for a cell phone repair store as they have the most knowledge about flashing phones. Locally most metroPCS stores send customers to SilverSpoonWireless.

[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
Hi everyone,

Update 31/03: Works with all 2.2.2 ROM's, including the awesome MoDaCo kitchen!

For me the notification controls for the music player are an admirable idea but ultimately useless if you don't prefer the stock music player. It would be ideal if any music player could hook into them but alas, with the current implementation that's not possible.

I found the option to turn these controls off in the Music app to be utterly unreliable. Frequently I would reboot to find the controls visible even though the option was unchecked in the Music app. I also found that if you freeze or remove the Music app the controls become visible again and there is no way to remove them.

So here's the fix:

Modified framework

Actively hides the controls every boot

Music app can be removed, controls remain hidden

All I have done is add the following code to framework-res.apk/res/layout/statusbar_expanded.xml in the music controls section.

android:visibility="gone"

And, since this didn't work for all users, I've now added the following so even if it wants to show it will be 0% high ~hidden.

android:layout_height="0dip"

Here an update.zip you can flash using Paul's Clockwork Recovery, please make a backup first.

Only tested on P990 with Android 2.2.2!

[LG Optimus 2x] DocRambone:
Nice work, but did not make any change for me. Buttons still there if i remove the music.apk
[LG Optimus 2x] Gilg@mesh:
did not work here either :/ really want to get rid of that :D
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
Oh, really?

Well, I'll need to take another look, worked for me... :confused:

I'll do that tomorrow, thanks for the heads-up!
[LG Optimus 2x] Gilg@mesh:
I had already deleted the music.apk before I tried this, but I tried it anyway but still it was there, then adb pushed the music.apk back and removed it through settings, but when I deleted the music.apk it was there again so adb push back and now it's gone but I keep the music.apk but hide it with Launcher Pro until this works :) thanks!

btw this has nothing to do with the music control, but the power widget control (wifi, bluetooth etc) I change my LCD density to 190 from 240 because 240 is way to much and looks bad, but the power widget don't fit the screen if you know what I mean (it fits but there is a little emty at the right side, hard to explain but I think you can test it for yourself it you want too), is it possible to fix it? and another thing, I just want wifi, bluetooth icon there (with my Nexus S CM7 I have wifi, bluetooth and flash but there is no flash atm) is it possible to hack it somehow? :D
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
Well it's interesting, I've tested it again and it does work for me with one exception:

* When I activate the shade in landscape mode the music control comes back.

When this happens, because I have removed the Music app, I can't disable it again... :) But when I reboot it is gone...

So I need to look into the landscape bug... are you using landscape mode at all?

And yes, I think you can alter the toggle buttons... I'll look at that too.
[LG Optimus 2x] MaliciousKen:
didn't work for me too. The buttons reappears when I delete the music.apk
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
I've updated it guys, details in the first post, let me know how you get on.
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
Yes, this is all possible:

</TableRow>
[LG Optimus 2x] Gilg@mesh:
Great, is it something I can do easy or does it take some "time" (maybe you can make a update.zip file)? as I said, I only need Wifi and Bluetooth (flashlight when it's possible, maybe you can make a flashlight button?) and if would be nice if the buttons fills the screen (make them wider) when using density 190 :D

thanks!
[LG Optimus 2x] DocRambone:
Confirmed functional :)

Thanks .
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
lol - the problem is the testing... I don't have my density set like that so couldn't test and the changes are very fine-grained which means there would be lots and lots of testing...

It's not hard to change but you need to first understand adb, apktool, framework-res and layout.xml stuff... it's all on the forums though!

If you get up and running with adb and apktool (http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/ & http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=640592) - verified and tested - then I'll show you where to start making changes.
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
Thank you kind sir!
[LG Optimus 2x] Gilg@mesh:
ok, I already have adb, I downloaded apktool and copied the files to the Windows directory, now what? :D
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
Try and decomplie an apk, recompile it and get it working on your phone. Report back.

[LG Optimus 2x] marco_ch:
Hey

worked well for me, thanks!

It did not only remove the music controls but also changed the design of the status bar icons. But this isnt tragic :-)

Would you also know how to remove the service provider name in the notification window? its saying Orange CH there for me which I find rather pointless. Its taking up space only.

thx
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
The provider text can be removed or replaced but it doesn't save any space because the "clear" button also resides in the same area (often hidden).
[LG Optimus 2x] salisbury_steak:
Perfect! I too dislike the music controls stuck in my notif bar when I already have LG's music.apk removed. :p.

I'm downloading it now.

Also, would anyone know how to remove the default toggle widgets in the notif bar? I hate those too.
[LG Optimus 2x] Mjuksel:
well i edited the xml to remove those too, but i cant compile somehow..
[LG Optimus 2x] salisbury_steak:
I flashed and it successfully removed that annoying music bar in my notif. Thanks djmcnz!

@Mjuksel: Well goodluck then. I really hope you can sort that out. :)
[LG Optimus 2x] shpapy:
got some issues as well

i took the framework file de-compile him, changed the relevant values

and then recompiled.

1. the original size is 10Mb the new one is 6.7Mb strange right?

2. the permitions were not set correct (we need 644 for this file)

3. after placing back the file via CWM and adb the phone starts up but get stuck after the desktop has loaded and restarts with F.C on google.gapps.

4. i also tried just to retrive the file , decomplie and recomplie same results with same size as before..

any ideas?

Thanks.
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
Did you post this in the correct thread? I'm not so sure?
[LG Optimus 2x] shpapy:
yes i did cz

1. its the same subject.

2. its related to the problem / solution.
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
:) I understand.

Yes, a smaller apk means the resources probably did not build... what version of apktool are you using? I recall 1.3.1 is good but 1.3.2 has problems - I don't know about 1.4.x

You also need to logcat at boot to see what the problems is (but smaller apk needs to be fixed first).

So - my suggestions is to decompile, do

not

change anything, recompile and push to phone and boot - does that work?

If you push framework-res.apk in recovery then permissions will be correct, no need to change them.
[LG Optimus 2x] shpapy:
yeh i tried that already, but the result is the same,

i basiclly select the project,

a. i tried to decomplie with option 9 and 10 the results are the same

b. then i compile with option 11

i also tried to zipaling the files still the same.

attached below is the versions, are they o.k?

About

-----

Apk Manager v4.9

ApkTool v1.3.2

7za v4.6.5

Roptipng v0.6.3

Sox v14.3.1

Android Asset Packaging Tool v0.2

Thanks in advance
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
You need to change your version of apktool - either down to 1.3.1 or up to 1.4.x

1.3.2 is broken.
[LG Optimus 2x] shpapy:
o.k!!

thanks alot i will give it a try iam @ work now so i cannot.

thanks!

---------- Post added at 10:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:51 AM ----------

same result with apk tool 1.4.1

http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/downloads/detail?name=apktool1.4.1.tar.bz2
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
Okay, then don't use apkmanager... just apktool at the command line and check the output... should identify any errors.
[LG Optimus 2x] shpapy:
thats the whole issue,

no errors anywhere, just dosent work, and the logcat is crazy, loads of no permitions to run etc...
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
Try with another (simple) apk to make sure your config is right... phone.apk or launcher2.apk would be my suggestions.

An are you loading the correct framework using the 'if' switch for apktool?
[LG Optimus 2x] shpapy:
Ian using the if statement I will try phone.apk and see

thanks!! i'll try it!!

[G Tablet General] jimcpl:
Hi,

I think that it was discovered fairly recently that there are some serious potential incompatibilities in the latest unofficial rom (3991), and the devs, and others have had their hands full trying to help people. I don't know firsthand, but I imagine between this forum, the irc channel, and PMs, they must helped a ton of people.

Then the woot deal happened this week, and everybody probably worried about multiples of that, so I think the posts/threads about "be careful", were just proactive to try to help users avoid problems.

JMHO.

[G Tablet General] BoulderGeek:
I'm a "Wooter" and came over here to get info on ROM/firmware builds for the device. I'm a current unhacked Archos 70 owner, and have had Samsung Captivate and HTC Evo 4G as well.

I haven't really seen _much_ condescension from this community on the Woot influx. Just some tongue-in-cheek "there goes the neighborhood" and "here come the n00bs" stuff.

I'm ready to admit that I am a n00b with the Viewsonic device, but welcome any help and "ROMs for Dummies" tutorials from this community.

My device should be here on Tuesday, so I hope to see a built and optimized 2.3 firmware package by Wednesday. :-D
[G Tablet General] edirector:
That may be somewhat true but when I first bought my GTab and I got it from Office Depot and came to this thread I experienced the same unfriendly treatment. Most are just trying to learn and better GTab. Not here for confrontation, argument or unnecessary challenge.

To the original poster, I get what you are saying and don't feel singled out because you are Woot. Some here don't make newcomers feel welcome. Why I don't know. After awhile (and it should not exist at all) it tapers off, hopefully for you more sooner than later. Enjoy your GTab.
[G Tablet General] goodintentions:
I'm a wooter, too. My woot gtab should arrive tomorrow. That said, you have to admit that the woot deal is probably the single factor that brought/will bring a significant higher people to this site. And please understand that many of us have spent years dealing with the non-tech savy. We know how the typical non-tech savy behave.
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
What I've generally seen so far is a lot of "please read the FAQ's" and "please use search" and "please read the instructions thoroughly when modding". I've also done a few tongue in cheek comments, but if anything else I'm not being condescending -- if anything else I'm a little nervous at the amount of users that might be coming. Everyone was a n00b once.

When new users come in small dribs and drabs, I think the forum has been able to handle it. But if there are potentially hundreds of new users in the next week, it's going to be complete madness.

I've actually re-written ALL my main posts, with Woot users in mind. If anything else, the Wooters have gotten me off my sorry arse and gotten me to really look at my instructions and go through them with a fine-tooth comb to ensure that stuff is clear. :D

One of the other reasons for my own temporary push of posts is because it's EOM and I may have a smaller footprint this week (work stuff). So I'm spouting my concerns now before my visibility is lessened.
[G Tablet General] edirector:
Thanks, Roebeet and I am laughing. It is always rough when you are starting out with new equipment even if it is functioning properly. Throw unstable into the mix and you will have tens of thousands trying to figure out stability real fast.

Also, I cruised Amazon's tabs yesterday and they have GTab as number one best selling on their site. The buyer's reviews all point to XDA and immediately modding your tab. I'm not kidding. This tab was a sleeper because most tech mags--cnet, pc mag, pc world, etc. gave it bad reviews. However, when people got their hands on one (from at a store, friend, peer, colleague, family member or such) it was a different story. The general public is now starting to respond favorably to GTab. You may get even more traffic.

I like your spirit though, you are good people. Look at this community as the future "tech forum facebook" 500 million and counting... Hey it is a blessing when you have multiple mainstream sites throwing traffic your way. You don't have to work at SEO rankings. Please translate that to some of the other people who are here already that make newcomers feel unwelcome. The term wooters is not nice. What happened to "new G Tab owners"? Some egos here need to be minimized on the task bar or forced close. -Peace, mostly this is a good site offering a wealth of information.
[G Tablet General] aaron19953:
My $.02 ..

the people who have been on here, and owned a gtab for a while are the people who are more apt to purchase bleeding-edge gadgets, and are generally more savy and aware of potential problems..

Some may be viewing the "wooters" as uninformed consumers looking for the best deal ..

yeah, i realize this is a huge generalization but i imagine alot of people are thinking the same thing..

so i say "Welcome wooters !" (just don't ask a question thats been answered 38 times) hehe
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
I was a Wooter long before I joined XDA - don't worry, it's an acceptable term and we wear it with pride.

[G Tablet General] NinetyWt:
Maybe us Wooters could be put to use. I'd be glad to donate some time to work on a wiki, for example, although I've never actually put one together. Surely there is something that new board members could do.
[G Tablet General] Mikeg1969:
Sorry for the long post but I must echo the sentiments of others. It is not the intent of most to make new members feel unwelcome, as I can remember when I first got the Gtabs for my wife and myself after finding the community support of XDA. Even in the smaller Gtab/XDA community, members had problems and needed to be helped, many would not use the search function and just ask repeatedly about issues that had already been addressed and resolved. Now that Android tablets are coming to light with the heavily advertised Xoom, the fear is simply that thanks to the overwhelming response to WOOT the common questions will appear again and again as our great forums expand to receive more and more new members. I'm sure that there is no animosity or malice intended, just an attempt to make new members aware of possible pitfalls and resolutions. More users will make this forum and the Gtab better and better.

Welcome to all :)
