Also worth considering is that this is a very new device. I've come over from the SGS which I only bought in February, and there are still an enormous amount of themes/ROMs being made for it, and the SGS is ca. 1 year old. And I think I tried every one of them too.

All good things come to he who waits..

I was messing around with the root finder and somehow delelted my TouchWiz30Launcher.apk and TouchWiz30Launcher.odex in the system/app folder and now i have a black screen. Any know how to fix this please.....
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
please dont post a topic in the dev section asking for help, the mods will lock this im sure. i replied to your post in the launcher thread. i need to know more about the state your phone is in before i can point you in the right direction. i see you are rooted. that is good. was debugging enabled before this happened? have you modded 3e recovery so it can run update.zip files?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] kosherdill34:
No I was not in debugging (forgot)

I get a black screen and a task bar, nothing else my buttons dont work.. I can see any apps or anything but black screen, I think I moved or did something to the TouchWiz30Launcher.apk and TouchWiz30Launcher.odex

I was hopeing I might be able to get into the system/app files from m y cpu..
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
you would need to be in debugging mode, have you restarted the phone? if not good! hold the home button for 5 seconds, see if the recent app list pops up. if you have rebooted you need to prey that recovery is adb enabled
[Samsung Infuse 4G] kosherdill34:
i think i am screwed, I am past all this I have no recent apps and the phone has restarted on me
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
no not really screwed. are you on a windows computer?

do you know how to boot into recovery mode?

have you ever used adb before?

how are you with comand line?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] kosherdill34:
On a Mac (which makes this even harder)

Forst android phone

Not to good with adb or command lines....
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
this might be a pain. before you do any mods you want a backup plan. im hopefully gonna get you setup with cwm recovery then after it is fixed(if we can do it) you will have a way to restore from the phone. ill be back with links and instructions
[Samsung Infuse 4G] kosherdill34:
If i go into the Android system recovery and choose delete all user data or something from there will that help or work
[Samsung Infuse 4G] DroidXcon:
wait you have cwm working?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
well no. andriod doesnt work like that. maybe reinstall packages can restore some things but not likely the launcher. but deleting user data is all you will do with a "factory reset" it is kinda a misnomer. it assumes you didnt delete anything.

Rooted my Galaxay i9100 yesterday, and im having the Force Close program problem (Orange net work) , so looked at through the forum to reistall the origainal firmware, as most user are doing.

Question is do i need to reset custom binary counter to reinstall the original firmware?? And do i need to use SuperOneClick to re root my phone?

PLUS i may have forgot original firmware name .... could of been kda ,but i did a update before i flashed it ..... :/

I also get the yellow warning triangle on boot up...

No but counter still shows custom rom number

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dazmancumbria:
Any advice on how to work out the original firmware or does it matter??
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dan13l:
If you want to downgrade it, I would look at flashing KE1 with Odin. Have a look in the android development forum.

It was my understanding that flashing official roms does not increase the counter, but flashing anything else does. So flashing the custom kernel will increase the counter. You can look at getting yourself a jig to reset it.

As for rerooting, yes, you'll need to do that again after flashing down to KE1.

Or you can just stick with it, I've heard it doesn't actually prevent functionality, it's just annoying. I'd anticipate a KE3 soon to fix the problem.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Personally if on Orange i would wait for the upgrade due KE3 .

Original firmware Orange branded phone is warranted by seller .

Stock firmware via Odin and Samfirmware is stock Samsung firmware . Seller may reject this under warranty but Samsung cover it .

Kies will probably not update requires Odin and Samfirmware for updates .

Rooting breaks your warranty full stop and requires removing before warranty claims .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dazmancumbria:
Thanks for reply jje , still trying to get the stock firmware back on trying KE1, doesn't seem to work :( using Odin but it does it so quick .. and when i check in settings under about , it still shows the same as before , is there any other flash program i could use ?

Ok I'm a bit confuse with amon ra recovery. I recently did an nandroid back up with fresh Rom 4.0. Then I flash a new Rom which is omj Rom. So I decided to nandroid restore back to fresh and once done I'm stuck on the HTC logo for very long time. So I keep on wipe and restore over and over still same problem. So I went and reflash fresh again after that I went back to amon ra recovery and nandroid restore and it works. so I'm confuse about it. do I need to be on the same Rom to restore back? I can't restore back to different Rom?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HipKat:
You can restore to anything that you have made a nandroid of, normally.

Just wipe everything in the Wipe setting, and I usually wipe dalvik and cache again, separately, then restore the nandroid you want.

TBH,m I have a nandroid of stock/rooted that I restore to before I flash any new ROM
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
Some people say it isn't necessary to wipe, but it seems like you may need to. Try wiping data, cache and dalvik then restoring next time.

I always tend to wipe a few times and always use the format_all.zip... which unfortunately I do not have a link to at the moment. Make sure you wire the cache and davlik-cache separately imo
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] happimeal:
Would there be anyone willing to do a different kind of guide for those wanting to learn to theme or even rom.

If someone would .... as there creating a theme, document the whole process, and as someone trying to learn, could download the files needed and instead of just downloading an already completed theme, they could build the same theme themselves while following the directions. I think that could be a great way for someone to learn this craft. I imagine once you have built one, things start to make more sense.

I have read a few of the themeing guides, and they are great, lots of great info, but a lot of times they dont explain the how/why things are done. Like when can you just edit the .png files to gain a certain look, vs. when you have to go and edit xml files, or which files need to be edited to create a lot of the looks we are looking for.

For me, i learn best by doing. I would love to d/l the same base rom one of you devs. would and follow some instructions and just follow along and perform all of the modifications you might make to create a theme from start to finish. Then a lot of other things might make more sense.

Just a thought if anyone has the time or would be interested, I am sure many people would like to learn this talent.

Thanks.

You took the time to get out of the Development forums then didn't go near the Q&A? I should flame you, but to get back there are also mutliple threads on this. You want to take S-OFF away then run your local RUU.

I'm sure that makes no sense, but like I said, I'm sure there are threads about it.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] akafaze:
Wrong section buddy, I suppose someone with grammar problems is also unable to post in the correct forum.

All you gotta do is a nandroid backup, which can be found in your recovery. The easiest way is to backup by Rom Manager, find it in the market.

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision#Rooting_the_Vision_.28G2.2FDZ.29_and_DHD
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] redpoint73:
You need to root the phone and get S-Off in order to flash a custom ROM. The Wiki method linked in the previous response is considered the most reliable method to root.

Once rooted, install ROM Manager from the Android Market. Then using ROM Manager, flash Clockwork Recovery, then backup your current ROM. This backup is also called a nandroid backup, and will return your phone to your current setup, whenever you want.

Then you can go ahead and wipe and flash Virtuous Fusion (either using ROM Manager or Clockwork).

Hi just wondering when I download a battery icon for example of the kitchen do I have to wipe before I flash it? Also if I decide I won't different font for example do I just flash that over again and the battery will stay?

Thanks
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
No you don't news to wipe. And yes the battery will stay. The fonts are just normal font files that get put in /system/fonts. The battery gets built into the framework and the framework gets replaced. Just to be safe I would backup first because I have had it where the flash has messed up.

uot kitchen thread by mendozina.

you shpould considere what your are flashing and how... each time you flash new icons, if it's system icon then framework is replace. you should use (copy) the mod bat framework from you system to flash new icon and keep the already mod you had done.

but this is a though since you don t give a lot explaination.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
Are you using the ROM files provided by UOT each time? If so, each time you make new items in the kitchen you're only over-writing those specific files when you flash it. Therefore if you choose not to change the battery mod in the kitchen when you flash new icons, you're flashing standard battery settings over the previously flashed customer battery settings.

i have similar problem,

today i have cooked my first mod, just new battery icons for status bar, status bar icons and new font. rom gets cooked w/o problems, also flashing goes as smooth as should be. the thing is, when i boot the phone no change is visible.

i didn't upload framework and system apk-s, i used IC 1.1.0. from kitchen, which is the rom i use. i did use edify script (for CM 3.x) and uncheck ThemeChooser.

That will cure it but your battery life will suck . If you force close it , it turns off to flight mode and then comes back .

If your on Orange UK Network then you can downgrade the firmware to KE1 that will stop it . You will have to wait for the next firmware release to see if it has fixed the Orange UK issue .

Be aware though that I have noticed battery problems with KE1 and I live with KE2 as it has better battery performance for me . It only force closes on phone start up so not a biggy really .

If your not on Orange UK , then hard reset the device ( BE AWARE THIS WILL ERASE YOUR DATA) and see if that works .

[Bada Software Development] mortara:
Hello,

one of the biggest problems in bada app development is the lack of simple mechanisms to install apps to the handsets of beta-testers. There is a way to do this when the tester has installed the bada SDK on his pc, but i always thought it should be possible without it.

This is why i started to examine what the SDK does when you're running an app on the target device, and begun to recreate this mechanism. What i have now is a tool that installs in-development app on a handset. The tester only has to install the root certificate from the SDK on his phone, no need to download and install the whole SDK anymore.

Any interested app developer can contact me to get a copy of the tool for his own app for free! For security reasons, the tool has a hard-coded list of known apps that it can install, so there is no reason to offer it as direct download here.

The tool offers the possibility to restrict installation to handsets with certain IMEIS, as well as an expiration date after which the app can't be installed anymore.
