To answer ur question: Its a matter of preference. There is a thread here that shows battery life comparison. And every ROMs OP and some early and later posts tell abt what's working and what's not.

So I got this crazy error while trying to get wifi tether to work on SRF 1.1.0. i was using version 3.0pre12 in ad-hoc mode. Anyone have any idea what this error means? I have been able to make it happen twice now.

In case anyone is interested I wrote to the developer and got this response:

Hi!

First I have to say that I don't own a Epic 4G (I'm from Europe and

such a device - or similiar - is not available here). So, it's quite

hard to debug such stuff.

Well. You get the "what the hell"-error because the phone tries to

start wifi. "Wifi Tether" uses the wifi-interface (of course) in a way

which is not recognized (it's not done via the official

android-framework - that's why it requires root-permissions) by the

phone. So, the phone "thinks" the wifi-interface is currently not in

use. If now another app enables wifi (geolocating for instance) the

message will be displayed! One app which I know is doing such stuff is

"shop savvy" but others might do the same.

Regarding infrastructure ... the phone reboots if you start tethering

when you have 4G ... correct?

Thanks,

Harry
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rjohnstone:
Here are the App and Framework system files for 4.1.57 fully deodexed.

You must already have Root access in 4.1.57.

Typical disclaimer as always...

USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.

This is for experienced users only please.

Remember to make a backup of your existing framework and app folders BEFORE you do this.

Link: Atrix-1.57deodexed IGNORE the instructions in the zip. Updated ones below.

Feel free to mirror.

Note: Photoedit.apk was pulled form the 1.26 Adeo file as the 1.57 version would not deodex properly.

This file did not change from 1.26. to 1.57, so I see no issue with using it.

UPDATE: The instructions contained in the zip have an error... oops.

This is why I don't write scripts. I type to fast. :o

Hopefully some of you guys caught that before entering the commands.

Again, backup your original system/framework and system/app files BEFORE you do this in case you want to revert back to an odexed system.

Here is the correction:

Put your phone in USB Mass Storage Device mode.

Copy the app and framework directory and their contents from the zip file to the root of your sdcard.

***Verify the copy was successful before you continue.***

Set USB mode back to None.

Type the following commands via ADB.

adb shell
su
stop
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system
cp /sdcard/app/* /system/app/
cp /sdcard/framework/* /system/framework/
rm /system/app/*.odex
rm /system/framework/*.odex
mount -o ro,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system
reboot
[Atrix 4G Android Development] lindsaytheflint:
Thanks, you beat me to it!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rjohnstone:
;)

I deodexed them last night, but wanted to run through some testing before I packaged them up.

Anyone feel like scripting this, go for it.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] tl_bull:
I must have done something wrong in shell... soft brick, certain it was my fault.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rjohnstone:
Not your fault... I found an error in my instructions.

cp /sdcard/frame/* /system/framework/

should be

cp /sdcard/framework/* /system/framework/
[Atrix 4G Android Development] lpsi2000:
Another error with the commands

it should be the following for the mounts command:

mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system

mount -o ro,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rjohnstone:
Thx. Updated OP.

The mount commands I originally posted did work for me without any issue though.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Ririal:
It looks like this isn't complete. There are some files in framework that you did not deodex, installing this on any phone will very likely brick.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rjohnstone:
What is missing?

Running on mine without any issues at all.

EDIT:

I see what you're talking about and it's a non-issue if you follow the commands to load them.

The 4 files missing from the framework folder were not odexed to begin with, so the originals will remain.

Remember, I'm not having anyone delete the entire contents of the framework folder, only the .odex files AFTER they copy over the deodexed versions first.

rm /system/framework/*.odex

These files are not odexed to begin with, so they are not touched.

blur-res.apk

framework-res.apk

moto-res.apk

android.test.runner.jar

You will also notice that 19 files are missing from the app folder as well... again, I'm not deleting any .apk files in the instructions, only the .odex files.

The 19 .apk files that are not included in my zip file are already present on a 1.57 system in a deodexed state.

I saw no point in adding them.

Make sense now?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] zeyoner:
I followed every step however when I attempt to run the following command

mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system

I'm receiving Permission denied.

Edit:

Had to use usb port on the rear instead of the front when rooting.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rjohnstone:
Sounds like you don't have root access.

Do you see a $ or a # in your command prompt?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] domin8:
i have $ in my root access... i'm getting permission denied at when i type 'su' but im pretty sure i rooted it earlier today

edit fixed i wasnt rooted
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Ririal:
Yeah I looked it over again, should be fine.

EDIT: Nvm saw you updated.

I'm working on a new method to automate this, I'll post something when I have it working reliably.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Rad ryan:
looking for another way

Question, possibly a dumb one but anyway it is. . . I couldn't get the script for root on update to work so if I go this route is it the same as getting from moto and is it possible to still have root with it?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kennethpenn:
Very nice contribution! :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rjohnstone:
This won't work without having root access first.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Immix:
I am still on 4.1.26 rooted and deodexed. Do I have to update my phone to 4.1.57 before copying the framework and apps folder? I know the script in OP won't work in my case but I can come up with another script. Thanks.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] shawnbuck:
Right - this is only for 4.1.57. If you do it on 4.1.26 you'll get a soft brick.

rjohnstone, its always best to do stuff like this under Early USB Enumeration mode. It is possible to get it to stop the automatic rebooting by typing "stop" into the console.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rjohnstone:
Thx for the tip.

I did use the stop command in my process and was able to prevent a reboot.

The process is so quick that I didn't see a single FC during the copy.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rraquib:
I think it should be mentioned in the OP that root is required.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rjohnstone:
That's pretty much a given, but I will add it. ;)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
No dice... soft brick. everything was fine until I entered: cp /sdcard/framework/* /system/framework/

Then I got a bunch of framework not found errors.... Yeah, I might be stupid enough to try again. :p
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rjohnstone:
:eek:

That's a new one.

Sounds like the files didn't get copied to the sdcard.

The real head scratcher is the soft brick.

If you ran the commands in the order I posted them, you should have been fine.

Nothing has been removed or changed in your system/framework folder at the point you entered the command.

Tell me you didn't run any delete commands first. ;)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
No, I put the two separate folders on the sdcard, opened adb shell, ran all the commands in order, and when I got to the framework cmd it threw all the errors codes my way, so I couldn't back out since I had stopped su, so I remounted and reboot, and softbrick boot loop... already flashed 1.26 and aroot.. going to update and try once more, before I do any other mods.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
SUCCESS!!!! I have no freaking clue what happened on the first try, probably typo-ed a cmd wrong.... but it's worked fine this time. Thanks for your great contribution!

Sing it if you know the words....

There aint no odex files on me, there aint no odex files on me. Well there might be odex files on some of you mugs, but there aint no odex files on me! :D
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rjohnstone:
Nice!

I assumed it had to be a typo or a file copy that went wrong.

Glad to hear you're up and running again.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Enixenigma:
Directory not found??

OK I could use someone with more expertise than I have, obviously.

I've copied the app and framework folders to my SD Card, but whenever I enter:

cp /sdcard/app/* /system/app/

I get:

cp: cannot stat '/sdcard/app/': No such file or directory

I can see the folders plain as day from file manager. I'm confused...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rjohnstone:
You need to set USB mode back to None after you copy the files over. ;)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Enixenigma:
I've done that, multiple times. I've made sure that the SD Card is mounted each time, but I still get that message. I don't know what to do at this point.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rjohnstone:
Are you in debug mode?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
Just making sure you know that sdcard does not mean a micro SD card...:)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Enixenigma:
...and that would be why you are the expert and I am teh n00b. Went on without a hitch. Thanks a bunch!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
Yeah, I thought that might be the problem, when you were saying SD Card, instead of sdcard (which is actually in the phone). Just for future reference the micro sdcard will be called sdcard-ext when viewing files through the phone.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mramirezusa:
Quick ? Why if I am deodexing system app & framework on my PC using a fresh ROM 4.1.57 and make a MD5 check against your files fail?

What r you using for deodexing? Last ver. of baksmali & smali 1.2.6 ? Last ver. of xUltimate 2.2.3?

And yes the only file I had an issue it was PhotoEditor.odex, so I ended using -i paramater and it work perfectly
[Atrix 4G Android Development] rjohnstone:
I'm using the current version of xUltimate.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] tonecreationz:
Deodexed!! Thanks! Now i can mess around and do some modding...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] aquariuz23:
DEODEXED TOO!! :) Thank you very much for your guide and efforts. Now I just have to figure out wat I can do with being deodexed lol.

p.s. can anybody just real quickly tell me the advantages of deodexing? Other than theming, does it improve the performance of the phone itself?

Thanks again :D.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
If it does improve performance, it's minimal. Mainly for ease of use for themeing.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Shadohw:
Well I don't know what I did but it seems to be fine as far as I can tell. I got to the

-"mount -o ro,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system"

step but when I attempted to run it I got a

-"mount: Device or resource busy"

I tried running it a couple times and got the same thing and I followed the directions very carefully and went and reread the prompt and everything went fine, I just continued from the step and rebooted and the boot took a while longer than normal (is that normal post-deodexing), even hung at the screen where the at&t logo appears but my phone is one now and seems to be functioning fine. Should I go back and redo anything like the mount or do I appear to be good to go?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Swiftks:
Just go check /system/app/ and /system/framework/ folders with root explorer and see if you see any .odex files. If you don't then it took just fine.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] drinizi:
1.Task29 (all internal memory of the phone will be wiped)

2.Download the latest/correct radio for your phone (*WARNING you may brick your phone if wrong version is downloaded and installed)

3.Enter bootloader "power button + up/down volume" while connected to pc.

4.Run/install latest radio version.

5.Reinstall your android room

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samsamuel:
No!!! Holy crap, Why on earth would you task 29 to flash a radio?? Task29 doesn't even wipe the radio partition.

@op, ,,, into bootloader, (power and voldown, not vol up), connect USB, flash radio, restart, done. New radio, same rom, no lost data, android never even notices what you just did.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] scariola:
Or unzip and rename the .nbh file from the radio to LEOIMG.nbh.

you only have to right click the file, select rename, and type LEOIMG, then hit enter.

Put that file in the root of your SD card and power on phone and hold volume down, follow directions. Soft reset after complete.
[Nook Color General] tylrdoan:
I'm kind of new to this, but what is a dual boot? how is it different to just a normal one. is it better at all in performance...i've been looking at the dual boot and it seems very interesting, i dont know if i should try it or not
[Nook Color General] JLCollier2005:
it basically just means you can have one ROM installed on the internal and one installed on an SD card (or however many on different SD cards) People mainly do this for two reasons...the first is so they can keep the stock B&N software on the internal so they get all the benifits that come with the nook. The second is to try alternate ROMS (such as someone who has froyo installed on their internal and want to try and see how CM7 works)

There are no performance benefits to it and, in fact, can make the ROM run badly if you have a low-class SD card.

If you're not sure about a ROM (or rooting your device in general) then it's nice to try other ways out, also.
[Nook Color General] Gin1212:
Actually... I think he's referring to the "Dual Boot" in Android Development forum. It's where two OS's are installed on the internal memory. They just share the hard drive.

So that way you can have stock eclair(android 2.1 and what comes on the nook originally) and Honeycomb(android 3.0) if you want.
[Nook Color General] JLCollier2005:
yeah..I just realized this a few minutes ago.

basically the same thing as I said above, except for the SD card problems.
[Nook Color General] Iucas:
I think the dual-boot will be helpful if you want to try other OS version. But it will occupy some space of you media drive. And please do read the thread throughly before you take action. Otherwise when hit any problem you will not know how to bring your nook back to normal.
[Nook Color General] tylrdoan:
If i do have two OS on my nook (right now im running CM7), how would i go to the other os when i boot...like if i wanted to go to honeycomb?
[Nook Color General] Iucas:
Holding both "n" and power button when turning on. And dont release the power button until you see the multiboot loading screen . Then continue holding home until you see the "ANDROID___" loading.

does launcher pro drain battery more than adw?

because i was using LP (switched back to adw) and it would literally drain 20% in 10min easy. and id look at battery usage and it would say my display is using 80% or more.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
I always saw more battery drain and other bugs/lag on Launcherpro than on ADW Ex. I get more customization, stability, and battery with ADW, which is why I switched.

Using a launcher over the one that comes with the ROM shouldn't use more battery, because the built-in launcher shouldn't be running or using any additional battery.
