Will not let me Unzip the file. redownloaded, reset my computer. I can unzip other files. not this one. Any ideas?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xerravon:
thank you,
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xerravon:
You need to use 7zip to unzio it

Rooted my stock 3.2 TW using that method, worked flawlessly
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] jhanford:
Hi all,

When I'm restoring multiple apps using Titanium Backup, I get the Package Installer prompts (Install/Cancel and then Open/Done) for EACH app.

When I do this on my phone (Droid X 2.3.3) this does not happen, and I can batch restore 100+ apps with no interaction.

Is there a setting in TB or HC I need to check/uncheck?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] DiscipleDOC:
It's not seeing your license key.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] jhanford:
You, sir, rock verily!

I'd copied it off to my microSD before nvflashing. Forgot to copy it back. You just saved me another 300 screen taps! :D

I got the update to gmail 2.3.5 today and it broke some widgets like gmail unread count. All i get are FCs. Does anyone have the last version of gmail? Care to post the apk

From something awesome
[Android Software Development] eatmold:
Can you not just remove updates from Settings -> Applications?
[Android Software Development] killersnowman:
I can remove the whole of gmail but i cant role back to an earlier version without the earlier versions apk.

Hi

This one i have ripped from the oldest ROM i had

Hope it can make you smile again

:p
[Android Software Development] killersnowman:
The version i reverted to is 2.3.4.1

From something awesome
[Android Software Development] Fr4gg0r:
The latest version does not permit any other app to read emails which is ridiculous.

-untick automatic updates

-uninstall update
[Android Software Development] killersnowman:
To be fare none of the old versions specifically allowed for emails to be read. It was a work around that allowed apps to read the gmail.db directly that allowed apps like unread count to do what they did.

Apparently this undocumented "api" has chabged somehow

From something awesome
[Android Software Development] Fr4gg0r:
The READ_GMAIL permission was granted to every app, now it's only granted to apps by google.

If it's granted to every app, it's kinda of an api.
[Android Software Development] killersnowman:
Yea i guess the permission is a standard one but there was no method calls or dedicated classes for accessing gmail. I don't even think there was a public uri for accessing the database.

I guess it was somewhere inbetween an api and a hack

From something awesome
[Android Software Development] ChocolateLab:
Gmail 2.3.4.1
[Android Software Development] Fr4gg0r:
The Contentobserver still works, one possibility would be to read the database as root then.
[Android Software Development] redwoodflyer:
Exactly. If devs never ever used undocumented APIs, MANY apps would be neutered and lack numerous features that allow the android versions to be much better vs. the iOS ones. One huge benefit of open source is the ability to find/utilize tweaks and such that the original programmers never thought of themselves.
[Android Software Development] thevoiceless:
Not only did it mess up permissions with other apps, the 2.3.5 update has been giving me separate notifications for each of my gmail accounts on my phone. Since I have two, it's now taking up twice the space instead of having it all in one notification like before.
[Android Software Development] killersnowman:
This is just a crazy 'upgrade' to something that was working great. So do they expect every app that wants access to gmail to have to use the wireless radio to query the gmail servers? Was it really so insecure to have mail read from a db?

I have actually been working on a gmail widget that used the permission READ_GMAIL but now im not even continuing to pursue it

Works really well on Galaxy S i9000

But the mails are hard to read, the font color should be brighter.

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] decalex:
Ok, here's the one I've been using and tinkering with for a while.

I'm not even positive who to credit with the base version, but Fernando Sor and Ecsnead are the main dudes.

Font color changed to almost white as requested.

Also, main email and labels screens are slightly transparent. I'll update the OP with photos n stuff later on.

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] ceno808:
Cool, much better.

One thing is still really bad, in the adress field is a light blue color, this looks really bad. Could you change it to 73B6D6 ?

Are there any tuts how you change colors in apps?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] decalex:
Are you referring to the color of the "to" text when you reply to an email?

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] dreamsforgotten:

Yes, that is what I meant
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] decalex:
I think I found the location.. and, hehe, those colors are pretty similar.

73b6d6

I'm gonna pick a color first to make it easier to identify, and change all instances of it.. just to test it out. But I'll get to the bottom of it. I haven't seen a Gmail specific tutorial. If anyone-- Dreams would probably know. :)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] decalex:
eh.. here you go anyway.

I switched out the colors.. :)

Download Me - Gmail Mod 2.3.5

you need to rename this and copy or push to /system/app/Gmail.apk ... or it might install normally.. I forgot right now :)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] marleynyc:
Looks good! thanks
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] ceno808:
You need to replace the file with e.g. RootExplorer

Many Thanks! You are great!

How do I install this ?

I can't find the folder /system/app ?

I used Astro to install it, and it just gave me the standard white version. I rebooted into recovery, but it's just an apk, so not there. Please help this newb out :)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] ceno808:
You need root to write on /system/, are you on a rooted phone?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Zorachus:
Yes Oxygen 2.2.1 w/Matr1x 5.5

I typically have used Astro before to install .apk's, and recovery to flash zip's
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] ceno808:
Works for me here, just tested it on Astro.

I went up to root and there was /system/
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Zorachus:
I never realized I could go up to root folder in Astro, I did that and folder is empty, but there was the system folder, and it did show the black Gmail.apk file, but I would launch it, and still the same ol white e-mail, nothing different.

Too bad this wasn't a zip to flash in recovery, that is how I installed the new theme "Inveretd Black test messaging"

I did go into Root Explorer, found the new black Gmail.apk, and tried to install it, it went through the install options, and tried to install then said Application not installed.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] dreamsforgotten:
Go into root explorer copy the file from sd move to system app there is a button at the top of root explorer mount click that then paste finally make sure the permissions match up with the rest

Of the apps
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sinik420:
My gmail is stored with regular apps as com.Google.gmail or something close, I tried renaming your file to move there but no luck. Any ideas?

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] ceno808:
Try to rename the modified file as your original and replace it, but do a backup of your original Gmail!
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sinik420:
But should I keep it in the data/app or move it to system/app, also I think this is the reason that when I delete my emails it does not sync with my account

sent from my nexus s on a kang from simms
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sinik420:
Just tried, only fcs. How do I get gmail to.be kept in system/app again.

Edit- got it, redownloaded, deleted all gmails and changed permission and rebooted. We're good =]

Anyone else seeing that? Are u running tmo theme engine theme by chance? Post a screencap if u get a chance and I'll take a look.

EDIT:

Also noticing that the mdpi icons are not themed-- if your phone is mdpi. (Nexus S is hdpi).

Let me know if that's the case and I could do the mdpi folder too.

hello,

i use darky 10.2 on my sgs i9000. I am trying install this, but I am wrong in something. I don't know what. First install meridian is not working because blacked gmail cannot install.

Second method is questionable in last step when I can't find permission button. Where I can change permissions?

Thanks in advance!!
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] nickert0n:
nob question what does dark or inverted versions mean?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] decalex:
All good :) just means that the base color is black instead of white. I love the black on our phones with the super amoled screens. Some say an energy saver, but I just like how it looks.

. . NS4G . . CM7 . .
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] decalex:
Do you have Root Explorer, the app?

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] markywylder:

Download ES Datei Explorer, activate the root options. Under properties you can change the permissions.

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] ryboto:
is there a reason these wont install without pushing them to the apps folder? When I uninstall my current Gmail, and try installing these my phone simply wont install them.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] JaSauders:
Someone care to take a stab to logically explain why this type of functionality was left out of the default Gmail app in the first place? :D
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] dreamsforgotten:
Because the signature in gmail the md5 sum sees a change in code pushing it to system app tricks the os to allow it we don't have google key they signed it with to re sign it legit

using root explorer and going into system/apps and im not seeing gmail? is it named something else? :o also im running 2.3.7, does that make a difference?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] decalex:
It should be there. If you are using some kind of search, make sure that G is capitalized.

2. 3.7 shouldn't make a diff

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Fidel Cashflow:
I'm probably in the minority but I prefer the stock icon is there an easy way to change it?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] decalex:
2 ways. 1... The easiest, if you use a launcher like GO LauncherEX or Launcher Pro, you can probably just long click the icon, and change it.

2. To make a more permanent change, you could grab the download at the top, open with 7zip, navigate to /res/drawable-hdpi/ic_launcher_mail.png

Replace that file with your desired png, exit, save, then install again. Make a backup of your existing first! :-)

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Fidel Cashflow:
How do I uninstall? Market is showing an update to GMail and I want to update.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] decalex:
I recommend backing up with titanium backup, then Uninstall (from tb too). Then download fresh from market. Let me know if that works for you.

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Fidel Cashflow:
Really appreciate all your help. I ended up finding an updated version on another forum. I tried your trick with changing the icon but it never worked and I ended up with an empty android placeholder instead. not the end of the world.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] lowlife113:
yesterday i opened my new sk4g and and everything works but the internet unless im running off a router. in the top bar it varies between e and h but it just never works i know i have the data plan also so you can rule that out...any suggestions

also its running smotth maximus x now but it didnt work before i flashed it
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] tylermaciaszek:
can you download a different browser such as dolphin browser just so we can narrow down the problem?
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] lowlife113:
yes...dolphin browser is downloaded now i turn off wifi and still nothing no internet no email no market
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] tylermaciaszek:
go into settings then into wirless and network and got into mobile networks

make sure the first box is check

acces point name ist-mobile us
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] lowlife113:
the access point name is t-mobile us and the first and second boxes are checked
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] tylermaciaszek:
stupid question but have you done a battery pull?

try and take out the sim card wait a minute or two and out it back in
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] lowlife113:
haha yeah ive done it a couple times
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] tylermaciaszek:
damn i would call tmobile see what they can do because i am lost. i mean everything sees right you could have gotten a messed up device or maybe tmobile is screwing things up!
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] lowlife113:
ok new problem...i think i soft bricked it i get a black screen with a phone caution sign and computer in the middle. now i downloaded the stock firmware and am going to flash it through odin but its stuck on this screen and i cant get it into download mode as soon as the screen flashes it come back up with the same screen
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] xmeatizmurderx:
Pull the battery, plug the phone into the computer and while holding volume down + power + trackpad insert the battery and you should be in download mode
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] tylermaciaszek:
just to add on yes this may seem like an awkward position but it will work!
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] lowlife113:
Right but when I do that it doesnt do anything
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] tylermaciaszek:
you cant get into download mode?
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] lowlife113:
Correct ok heres what happened its my buddies phone I rooted it flashed smooth maximus x on it. He tried to do the software update from the computer at the end uf the update it saod error so he unplugged it now its got that screen and I cant get it to go into download mode
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] tylermaciaszek:
take out battery plug into computer open odin insert pit and pda files hold the trackpad and volumedown and put batter in at same time (yes it is an awkward hand position) check auto reboot and re-partition and hit start
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] lowlife113:
Along with the volume down and trackpad do I do the power button also whole putting battery in and just so I understand correctly someone else os going to ha e to put the battery in as im holding the buttons right
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] tylermaciaszek:
no need for the power button and if you have another person you can have them put the battery in but you still need to hold down the buttons its awkward to do yourself so if you have another person put the battery in it would be easier
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] lowlife113:
tried that and it still wont go into download mode and odin doesnt recognize that the phone is there
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] sduvick:
That black screen is recognized in odin as download mode, just flash from there.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] tylermaciaszek:
you sure you held down both buttons and put the battery in at the same time its supose to work 100% of the time

[General Questions and Answers] sr89:
Hey guys!

I'm planning on some app development for smartphones and I would really like to know how detailed the app-statistics in the different markets are.

To specify my question: is there any statistic in the market of Android and Windows Phone 7 that tells you, from which country your app was downloaded (this week/month/year/overall) or what the default language of the devices is, on which the app is installed? Or does it just tell you how often in general it was downloaded?

Answering that question would help me a lot. I recently created an account on Android Market, but since I didn't upload anything yet I don't have access to any statistics.

Sincerely,

SR

P.S.: Even if this additional question does not really fit to xda, may be someone knows it - what is the answer to my question regarding to Apples App Store?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] missingxtension:
Mms

Okay i got mms, but first to vent.

First of all In my experiences with this phone, its not worth the hazle.

Get an evo or a shift.

also this phone should be defecated on, and flushed down the toiled.

The keyboard is cheap, the amoled screen is not noticeably better than evo(unlike iphone4, and not worth the 100 part price), the keyboard is cheap, gps is half decent, ui is horrible. The epic is by no means an evo killer, i have had it for 2 months and all the time i have been cursing this phone. I have bricked it 2-3 times while at work to where cw recovery wont help you any.

Then there is the issue of the kernel, you need a kernel that has iptables support.

You guessed it the stock kernel doesn't have such a thing, so compiling is the best option. Until you go to the samsung page and cant download the source. I tried opera, firefox, marthon, ie, chrome, and UC. When i get my hands on the source code i will provide the a kernel.

Next up is get a rom that has a kernel with support, oh yeah that sounds easy.

No luck so far, i have reason to think that epic experience has iptables support.

But its become abandoned and its not updated to work with the new version of clockwork recovery (edify). Just so you know simply aosp does not have support

Do yourself a favor and sell it, but if youre like me and have 2 of then.

This phone cannot be flashed just like any other phone, you always have to jump trough hoops.

Okay so lets say you got an old cw , flashed experience and were able to get a kernel with iptables.

you would get this

http://www.4shared.com/file/yofYy6uB/epic_4g.html

it comes with

u2nl

autostart.sh

iptables

telephony.db

Mms.apk

apn back up xml file.

what you need

Autostart

es file explorer and enable the root features

apn backup and restore

busybox installer

first off you need to do what the autostart.sh says.

copy u2nl, iptables, telephony.db, Mms.apk, and a copy of busybox to /data/local

then copy autostart.sh to /data/opt and you need to create the folder called opt make the autostart.sh executable. You should run the autostart.sh manually on the terminal like so ./autostart.sh. If you get a FIX ME!, it means your kernel doesnt do iptables.

the last thing is to restore the apn with apn backup and restore with the one i provide, but you need to edit it with your phone number.

edit this file acordingly in the apn xml

mmsc="http://mms.metropcs.net/mmsc?X-Device-MIN=5555555555

rerplace with your phone number like so

<apn type="null" mmsc="http://mms.metropcs.net/mmsc?X-Device-MIN=2222222222

then resotore it.

that should be ready.

I dont have it right now like i said because of stupid problems.

but like i have said, i have sent AN mms once already. But right after that i bricked the phone so i had to delete everything.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] playaller:
Thanks for the post missingxtension. Looking at the posted files they all seem to contain Sprint info within each file. The telephony.db file, autostart files, apns file and so on. Was this an accident or....??
