[HTC EVO 3D] bramgg:
Hi there!

I've tried multiple times and also used the base lock ring, combined with the .dat files of my custom lock ring but I can't get it to work. I followed all the steps and all I get errors and no flashable zip.

The only thing I want to change is a simple custom lock ring. There are a zillion different lock rings out there and I can't seem to even get one working. Am I the only one with this problem??

Could someone with the skills please assist me with this as I don´t have the knowledge to see what I am doing wrong.

Please help as I am out of options.. Any tips will be very,

very much

appreciated! Thanks in advance.

EDIT: I've followed the steps more carefully and made the conclusion that I did'nt put the right lockscreen file in the designated folder. Now I've used the right (horizontally 180 and mirrored) png file along with the Orighinal Rom and also with the Base Lock Ring. Now I don't get any errors and everything seems successfull. After completing step 4 there should be a flashable zip in the 'Collect recovery zip here' folder, but this folder stays empty. So maybe someone could point me in the right direction as I am following these steps completely, but no flashable zip is created...
[HTC EVO 3D] seedogg:
Look in your Mod_files_here folder. Do you have 4 folders with a bunch of png and dat files inside?
[HTC EVO 3D] seedogg:
Bramgg, I sent you a pm.
[HTC EVO 3D] TrofeoSC:
Everything seems to go fine until in bat 4. when I get to the part where it is looking for *.apk in Lock_Ring_Kit\M10_Tools\EXTRACTED_APK\Fusion\ It says can't find and that is true when I look it is not there????

It also looks for the *.apk in \Idlescreen_Base\ which is not there either???

The bat then continues merrily along "adding" stuff until it gets to "Signing APKs and then it says that " 'java' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. In the next line it says "The System cannot find the file specified."

It then goes back to the fact that it can't find the two original files and then says "0 files copied."

Then back to building the flash zip and adding files coming then to signing the flash zip and then the same comment about 'java".

It then asks for the name of the Lockring Mod Zip file and that is about the end of the process. Even if you provide a name for the file it doesn't work and there is no zip file to retreive.

I have Java 6, build 29 on my Windows 7 home premium machine.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jon.01:
So I am running the T959VUVKD1 Deodexed ROM on the SGS4G and instead of the lockscreen that comes with stock ROMs, I would like to change it to the standard Android lockscreen.

I have used UOT kitchen but nothing gets changed, I think that the AOSP lockscreen and the SGS4G lockscreen exist simultaneously but only the SGS4G lockscreen is 'active'.

How can I change it so that I can use the Android lockscreen instead?

I don't want to use other apps such as WidgetLocker since I have had bad luck with those, and I don't want to use other ROMs since I like the default theme and cannot replicate it exactly on the UOT kitchen.

Try this thread:

I never cared much for the lockscreens, so I can't really help you. Read the thread and it might explain it all.

Keep in mind that this probably ONLY works on Froyo. It might cause a soft brick on GB.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] TheKucho:
Maybe you can flash the froyo ICBINB without the sweet acid theme. It's pretty much stock with all the tweaks and mods. Give it a test man! :D
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jon.01:
I just read the description, screenshots show THEME+ROM. Fail on my part. I will flash it on and see what it is like.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mike-y:
That's what I'm using right now.. ICBINB Froyo with NO theme. It's a great rom. I made my own tweaks with UOT kitchen and it's perfect for me. Great battery life too.

[EVO 4G General] Fazulka:
I remember reading about these on gizmodo or engadget or something. They announced them then disappeared for a year or so, then released them. IIRC, the reviews were poor because they do not fit in a standard sized electrical box that most outlets have, but instead require one that is slightly bigger. Unless the contractor that wired your house had exceptional foresight, count on knocking a rather large hole in the wall to pull out the old box and install a larger one.

Edit:

Here is the article
[EVO 4G General] MultiDev:
Yeah, this was an issue for me. I bought one only to find out it wouldn't fit in any of the electrical boxes in my room. Definitely something to consider.

Another issue to consider is if you have wall warts (the plugs that are big black boxes), those will block the USB ports.

I do remember the manufacturer following up on one of the reviews saying it was looking into making a small more compatible version. I don't know if anything came out of that. Anybody know?

Only your comment has nothing to with the Evo. A USB wall receptacle is pretty useful to anyone with USB devices, including the Evo.
[EVO 4G General] yamaford:
Wall worts with usb built in would be useful as well. No installation needed.
[EVO 4G General] MultiDev:
Thats actually a pretty good idea. I'd hate wall warts a lot less if they did this.

The closest I have seen to this is a nightlight that has a USB port.
[EVO 4G General] culua:
Isn't there a like a wireless mat charger?
[EVO 4G General] SilverZero:
A USB wall outlet would be very easy to make yourself if you had any basic soldering skills (and electrical knowledge, of course).

I am looking for the links and instructions that are not jumbled up on how to root the Galaxy 10.1 tab 4g LTE from Verizon.

I have seen many threads on people bricking their device by watching the youtube video that is apparently for the wifi version 10.1.

If someone could post simple straight forward instructions for me on this tab it would be greatly appreciated.

I am using Odin and have Keis installed but, any way to do this I am comfortable with.

[Legend General] kvasnevsky:
Hi All

Does anyone got Google+ on your Legends? Since I don't see it at Android Market and wonder is it device or country/operator restriction...
[Legend General] Asovse1:
I have it, and I've reinstalled it while in three different countries. Vietnam's, Japan's, and Canada's Android Markets all have it.

If you have root, use MarketEnabler (from the Market) to fake an American carrier and download the app.

Otherwise look in the General forums for an .apk. ;-)
[Legend General] johnzik:
I did not have any problems downloading it from the Market...
[Legend General] qzem:
Here you go this apk for Google+.
[Legend General] kvasnevsky:
Thanks everybody but I really wonder why on earth its restricted from the Market and who is the guy (in Google or operator) who suppose to click "magic button"?

It sounds absolutely ridiculous since I can use it through browser but not native Google app from Android phone.
[Legend General] filipathtc:
Yes,i have g+ (from the market) and i live in germany
[Legend General] psyionx:
I can't download it from my market unless I use market enabler.

[Legend General] petalyaa:
Here also dont have in Malaysia. Also use market enabler 2 fake my operator.
[Legend General] chongyixiong:
I downloaded Google+ when I was in Singapore though. The Market in SG seems to carry this. Can't find it while I tried to search on the MY Market.

Cheerios.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VictorWL:
I went into a T-Mobile store and had an associate upgrade my handset to Gingerbread. Everything works fine except for when I go into Navigation to use GPS. I type in the location where I want to go, but it says, "Searching for GPS..." and then it never finds it. Of course, I'm trying to use it in locations where GPS previously worked fine.

Here's what I've done to try to fix the issue:

1. restart the phone

2. download an app called "GPS Status & Toolbox" It has a tool that allows you to reset your gps data or something like that.

3. factory reset

Does anyone know of something else that I can try?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h22aboi:
http://teamroyal.net/gps.html

this is may/may not help.

I would recommend you root and d/l a AOSP rom with new panache radio or similar, but that's another story.... :)
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VictorWL:
Thanks for the reply, h22aboi. Unfortunately those procedures didn't work either.

I called T-Mobile tonight, and they couldn't give me an answer on how to fix the GPS. But the lady mentioned that others were having the same problem, and they were working on a solution. I asked her how many people were having this problem, and she said ten. That's not exactly a huge number, so I don't want to hold my breath for a fix.

I'm thinking about rooting my phone, but I'm under the impression that I would need to first downgrade to Froyo. I found a guide on how to do that, but it looks really complicated, especially for a total noob like me. I don't even know what an ADB is.
[Verizon Droid Charge] rami98:
I found this trick on the way to the beach. I had sunscreen on my hands and I started using my phone and found out this trick. Take a bit of sunscreen (doesnt matter spf or type, just make sure its the lotion kind) and rub it on your finger tips. Take your phone and use your fingers to rub around the sunscreen on the chrome. YOU PROBABLY DO NOT WANT TO GET THIS ON YOUR SCREEN. I HAVE NOT TRIED BUT THE RESULT MOST LIKELY WILL NOT BE GOOD. Rub it around good and leave it for 10 minutes to dry. Then take a wet towel or cloth and wipe it off of the chrome and it will look like new! This tip also works on any other type of chrome like on an iPod Touch or other electronic chrome device.

You and me both :] Especially with imoseyons lean kernel(which has Voodoo Color)! I honestly can't believe I was considering waiting for the Galaxy S2(which isn't even coming to Big Red), this phone is fantastic and suits all my needs :]
[Verizon Droid Charge] rami98:
I guess some polish could do the same thing but this is a quick and easy fix as everybody has a bottle of sunscreen handy, even Sarah Palin. I have no idea what that stuff is but i just call it chrome whether it be metal or plastic. Another thing, i love imoseyons kernel, i also used his kernels on the tbolt before i switched it out for a charge and it made the damn thing last a whole day on 4g but for some reason on the charge, i can't notice a difference between voodoo color and stock. Is there some setting im missing?

edit: I have tried a damp rag many times before and it does very little or nothing.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] andyxover:
dear all,

I'm sure of lot of people already know this,

but apparently others, especially new android users are unaware of this feature.

"paid apps are refundable within 15min after purchase"

you can download the app, play around with it, and if you don't like it or thinks that its not worth it, simply go into your market app, click on my apps,

find that particular app in the installed app list on the left,

in the brief information of the app that appeared on the right, at the bottom there's a return/refund button. click and you will uninstall the app and get your refund.

beware tho you can only do it once for each app, the next time you purchase the same app the refund button wont show up again.

hope this helps.:):)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dr.m0x:
In the good old days it was 24 hours. Even 1 hour would be nice. Sometimes 15 minutes just aint enough to try something out properly.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] javieritos:
In my opinion 15 minutes is not enough time for try apps, especially when some games requires download 200 MB and you have a poor DSL conection... you spend your 15 minutes downloading data...

Enviado desde mi Transformer TF101 usando Tapatalk
[Eee Pad Transformer General] grenademasta:
Your 15 mins start after the download completes and not when your download starts.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dr.m0x:
When your download completes from the market. Many games require further resources to be downloaded from within the app, which counts towards 15.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
Not to mention, if an application turns out not to work properly, but you don't find the bugs in the first fifteen minutes (or give the developer the benefit of the doubt that they'll fix the bugs), then you have no recourse.

I downloaded TravelDroyd and paid for the Hong Kong map, only to discover that the built-in offline Wikipedia content doesn't work at all. I reported it to the developer the same day I bought the app, having discovered it outside the 15-minute window. They replied the same day and told me that it would be fixed. Four months later, they haven't issued a single update to TravelDroyd *or* the Hong Kong map (which itself has issues with extremely inaccurate content, something else I reported to them.) The app is basically completely unsupported, but you have no way of knowing that when you buy it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] baseballfanz:
Not ALL app have a refund policy. FYI
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dr.m0x:
Yeah its crap now. 24 hours was probably too much time but 15 minutes is defiantly too little. Heck you can easily play with some apps for 15 minutes and still not have a grasp for what they can do our if they work properly.

All it has done is made me not want to try any app which doesn't have a free trial version, ad supported version, or the like.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] bkrodgers:
Just so you know, developers do have the ability to refund your purchase if they so choose. So you have some recourse, but it's totally at the mercy of the dev. I've seen some apps where the dev actually says right in the description that if an app doesn't work out for you, or you have an issue they can't resolve, to ask for a refund and they'll work with you.

Of course, a developer can say no or simply choose not to respond at all, but I think there are a lot of developers who really do care about doing right by their customers. The example you cite may not be one of them though, and for that reason I really wish they did have a longer refund window, during which the control lies in our hands, not the developer's.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
Or simply a dispute process where you can provide proof of an app's failure to work to spec, and have Google reverse the charge if the developer refuses to do so.

Sadly, I don't see Google doing so any time soon, for the same reason they won't provide basic features like the ability to sort apps by rating in their own market. It would have developers up in arms, and likely lead to quite a few jumping ship, which they can't risk while they're trying to grow their market share.

Good point that some good developers may offer the protection that Google themselves should be providing, though.

Greetings SGS2 owners,

I'd like to know your opinions on the SGS2 touchscreen surface.

Sometimes it's an unpleasant experience to swype texts because my finger gets stuck to the screen.

But some other time, the screen surface is silky smooth. Not sure why is this happening.

And the other day, a friend told me that my SGS2 has more screen friction compared to an iphone. Anybody can verify if this is true?

Is there any way to fix this?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S II General] Krooked22:
Your fingers have grease on them naturally, it makes them slick. However if you clean your screen or wash ur hands it will stick
[Galaxy S II General] Mittaa:
Thank God I don't have sweaty hands ...

It dosn't matter if I use a screen protector or not ... when my finger gets moisty/wet I can't use Swype LOL

On most other surfaces water would make it more slippery ... strange

Thank God I don't have sweaty hands ...
[Galaxy S II General] evolutiontheory:
Yes, all boils down to the dust or grease accumulated on the screen and on your hands :-) Nothing else ...

I have a rooted stock rom and tried flashing a kernel via KM but when I hit "download and flash" it takes me back to the kernel list. Anyone know how to fix this?

Question 2

Can i use the 32gb of internal memory to nand backup and flash roms and kernels with cwm? Or will factory reset,wipe procedures before flashing new roms also clear up the internal memory where I plan on storing roms and nand backups?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okantomi:
If you want to flash a kernel, why not just go to the Xoom Heaven thread in General; it's a compendium of Xoom resources. It'n not exhaustive but it's a wonderful place to start.

I'm not sure that Kernel Manager has been updated to work properly to flash current Xoom kernels.

OK, you are better off using the custom CWM Tiamat v3.2.0.0 R4c recovery, which will enable you to flash zip files from, and back-up to, the external microsd card. Get it here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1074979

You can use the CWM v4.0.0.4 from Rom Manager to back-up to your internal storage, but it could get wiped, and you will not be able to flash any roms or kernels from internal storage (sdcard). the v4.0.0.x does not recognize the external microsd card.

There is a new recovery, based on the v4 which uses a usb thumb drive (check out the Rogue Recovery, if interested).

I hope they solve this because its not going to be my phone only but the two new galaxy pros.
