[Samsung Infuse 4G] gwbard:
One of the "tricks" I usually do is this:

- make a copy of the .zip you're going to install -- rename it with 'revert' or 'undo' or something

- open the copy with 7zip, navigate to see what files are in it... (*don't touch the META-INF folder)

(themes usually contain /system/framework/framwork-res.apk and /system/app/SystemUI.apk)

- extract the same files from your current ROM

(either from the original zip, or directly from the phone -- I like to use 'Android Commander')

- replace those same files in the 'revert' zip -- and Bingo -- you now have a backup to restore if you don't like the theme :D
[Samsung Infuse 4G] joeym11:
Thanks ryan very much:D

And gwbard... i dont exactly understand that

Edit: Alright i got to the part where i extract the same files wiht my current rom... but how do i do that?... i just opened the zip from infused and all i see was the meta and then a folder with updates... what do i do?:P Im on infused 2.2.3 if that helps
[Samsung Infuse 4G] gwbard:
Just browse through the "update-infused-v2.2.3-full.zip" -- get familiar with the filesystem.

At the root you should see META-INF, system, and updates.

'META-INF' contains the scripting to run the update itself.

'updates' contains the modem & kernel.

'system' is what you should be looking at. Inside 'system' (amongst other stuff) are 'app' and 'framework' folders. "SystemUI.apk" is in 'app'. "framework-res.apk" is in 'framework'. 99% of the time these are the only two files changed in themes.

Now, not all developers follow the same folder structure in their CWM zips, for example they might just have a folder 'framework' where the scripting copies framework-res.apk to /system/framework, and so on...

sorry but it appears my building is on fire :eek: gotta go

[Q] Defy running CM7 1.0-RC1.5-jordan "Mobile Network Not available" T-Mobile

Is anyone familiar with this error?? I'm wondering if my SIM card is fried but I'm really new to all this and not sure if there is a setting I'm missing or if I need to do a reset. If I need to do a reset, can you give me some pointers? Right now I have no mobile service at all and T-mobile was pretty clueless. I know I can get help at a store but thought CM7 might cause some issues unless I find a really cool tech to help me. Thoughts? Ideas? Thank you all so much in advance! I'm going crazy without my phone
[Defy General] UEman:
Have you tried setting the right baseband with the baseband switcher?
[Defy General] jh20:
defy baseband switcher is pre-installed with cm7. you can find it in the app drawer. you need to select the correct baseband frequencies for your phone/carrier.

if it doesn't work straight away after that, or the signal strength seems weaker than before, you need to go into settings/wireless & networks/mobile networks/network operators, wait for it to finish searching and select the top one if your carrier name appears more than once. the list seems to start from the tower with the strongest signal and down......

You should have an app called Gmail, in which you can set up your GMail account to send and recieve your Google mail to and from your phone. If you use Yahoo or some other mail provider, you have to ues the app called email.

I use the email app (not the gmail app) for all 3 of my email accounts. I have GMail, Yahoo, and Buckeye-Express mail all set up on mine.

Just go into the email app and press the menu button and choose 'add account', and then fill in the info for your particular account.

[LG Optimus 2x] McFlow90:
Hey all,

I have my LG Optimus 2X running with CyanogenMod 7 and I am perfectly happy with my device. A few days ago I wanted to buy Madden NFL 12. I did not find it in the Market. So I went to the NFL Homepage and clicked "buy now". Then the market opened and said that the game is not available in my country. I used the Market Enabler to fake my provider to Verizon. After that the Market gave me a message that this game is not compatible with my device. I also tried to mess around with the LCD Density but that did not help. After some further research it seems that the game is not compatible with the Tegra 2 platform at all! I really can't imagine that this game won't run on my LG Optimus 2x. So my question is: Is there maybe a way to get it running on my device? Maybe a modification in the build.prop? I have no idea why the game should not be compatible with the Optimus 2x.

Thanks in advance!
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
Using a bastardized version of Topogigi, it shows up fine in the market here, and I get to the point where I can click "Accept & Buy" (which I'm not going to do.)

Two alternatives I guess.

Download topogigi and compare the build.prop with yours.

or

Install another ROM, download and install, backup with TB, go back to CM and restore.
[LG Optimus 2x] McFlow90:
Thank you very much.

I used adb push to place the build.prop of the mentioned ROM to the CM7 Nightly I am currently running. After the reboot there was no connection to my carrier but the wireless LAN worked. It also showed Madden NFL 12 in the Market. I could buy, download, install AND play it! Nice. I switched back to the original build.prop and the game still works.

Again, thanks for the hint with the ROM. I'll have a closer look at the build.prop files at the weekend. Hopefully I find the difference that causes this.
[LG Optimus 2x] noodles2224:
This "method" should work with the 9mm game right? Because I'm running stock G2x and it says incompatible with device.. and I mean, come on, you know? I really don't know what other rom would be compatible because I don't like any of rom in that section, all buggy and all.. cm too.. I mean, stop with the nightlies and release stuff that work.. since there's a team with individual devices, let them be the "nightly" testers.. that's why stock and rooted is always the best.. :) anyways, sorry.. carried on out of nowhere..

[Motorola Photon 4G] kennypow3rs:
I stopped using setcpu back when i had an HTC hero (2009). You really don't need it imo lol. Wanna save battery, use an undervolt kernel or turn off mobile data when you're not using it. You could also turn off auto background data sync.

[Motorola Photon 4G] Rabidmechanic05:
Don't think an app can control our cpu. I've tried setting frequencies only to have them ignored, pretty sure some programs will have the under volt ignored.
[Motorola Photon 4G] TheChronicDroid:
Set cpu undervolting my photon def works.. I did notice (not recently though) that under a lot of stress while undervolted itll kick up to a higher voltage though I havnt seen it do that for a long time now..
[Motorola Photon 4G] tcf84:
So there is or is not good reason to use setcpu on the photon?
[Motorola Photon 4G] kennypow3rs:
Its all based on the personal preference man. If you feel the need to use it go ahead. Myself, I don't think its necessary. I mean it's good for setting profiles in different situations (screen on/off,charging etc). Most of the time the kernels baked in settings are good enough but some people combine a custom kernel with setcpu for maximum control over CPU. Setcpu is absolutely pointless unless you're running a custom kernel. Plus if you use cyanogen roms it will allow you to set CPU values within the rom. Again, these are just my thoughts on it man.
[Motorola Photon 4G] tcf84:
Well I'm in the process of trying to get CM9 working, so I guess I wouldn't need it.

Thanks for the clarification.
[Motorola Photon 4G] El-Nath:
Can I ask, how did you UV your cpu ? is it somewhere within the setcpu, or it comes from the kernel ? I really don't understand about ocing/uving an android phone, thx.
[Motorola Photon 4G] kennypow3rs:
Custom kernels will allow you to over clock or undervolt. Set CPU just allows you to set clock speed upon boot along with custom profiles. If you install a kernel that allows undervolting it should have the custom values baked in. Again, use set CPU if you please. Joker has a set of custom kernels both uv/oc. I'm using his 1.3 oc kernel for CM7 at the moment but I'm only clocked at 1.2 just testing out. So far its amazing.

[Motorola Photon 4G] lancelot916:
Doesn't voltage control also work? When I was using my Epic4g, i preferred voltage control over setcpu since it does both: OC and UV.

However, I'd agree with kennypow3rs that i dont think any of it is necesary with the Photon. It's quite fast already and the battery life is amazing. I hacked my Epic 4g like crazy, through 10 ROMs, OC/UV, Eclair through GB, and I have to say, it was a waste of my time. I am now extremely happy to have the Photon, stock and rooted.

[Motorola Photon 4G] bigstar3:
thanks man!
[Motorola Photon 4G] TrojanZulu:
I prefer to use this instead of the ones built in to cm7/9, personal preference i guess.

But the only real reason i use it is for the profiles feature. Which i set my phone to screen off to max at 216mhz(wish i could auto disable while using Pandora), then to any time below 100% battery to max 750mhz (with jokers kernel that disables the 2nd core) and then finely to run full speed when its plugged in.
[Motorola Photon 4G] El-Nath:
where can I find those custom value ? and how I set them ?

and while on it, I want to ask since I'm using setCPU to undervolt, what is the normal voltage of 1.2 cpu clock ? I'm noob at this please bear with me, thx
[Motorola Photon 4G] dsims7_2000:
Funny, I have been using SetCPU until Kennypow3rs said something. Although it worked, I have ROM Toolbox Pro. I figured out yesterday, It does all that performance crap and more. Matter fact, I got 15 hours out of my battery (Granted, 7 of those hours I was sleep!)

1000000 Max and 216000 Min

To directly answer the question: I have mine set to 1000000 Max and 216000 Min, On Demand. And set on boot is checked.

You can add many profiles if you like, but the one I almost always use is Screen Off - which I set to 216000 min and 608 Max.

I used these settings on the Evo 4g too, and it really helps batter life a lot. Especially on the Evo, it seemed to double battery life.

I never get any perceived slowness or stalls with these settings, and the battery lasts two days on the Photon.

(the problem with simply turning off mobile data or syncing as someone suggested, is that you will not get emails and other updates in a timely manner. wHich defeats the purpose of having a smart phone and spending an additional $10 a month for it)

p.s. you need to be rooted for this to work.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] spudtheimpaler:
Hi all,

So, despite being careful I inevitably dropped my shiny Galaxy S2. I was more than unlucky though, and it fell in the path of a revolving door! End result is a smashed screen but working device. Nope, no insurance and I bought it without contract so I've lost a lot of pennies.

However, I am hoping to save something from this. I'm typing on my old desire so excuse the brief initial post bit I'm hoping I can at least not let the phone go to waste...

I have the MHL to HDMI cable and using this I can see the phone started ok and the pattern screen is displayed, so far so good!

However the screen doesn't respond to touch. Bummer.

So my thought is this: I've seen that you can hook up a Bluetooth mouse to the phone ... I'm wondering if I can pair a Bluetooth mouse before the pattern lock using adb and thus have a phone I can leave connected to the TV, use a mouse with and still get some use out of.

What do you guys think?

Cheers!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] manosv:
Its actually very doable.The problem is how to pair the mouse
[Galaxy S I9000 General] spudtheimpaler:
Indeed, that is very much the problem! I would hope that once its paired it will all be plain sailing, but trying to get it paired in its current state is the crux of it :-)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xchasa:
Why not buy a new screen?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] spudtheimpaler:
Mostly because they are almost as expensive as the phone itself... That and it's not just the screen, the surrounding frame is also quite badly damaged. I figure if I wait till after xmas I can probably get a new S2 for a similar price as I would be paying for just the screen now. I have my old desire which is keeping me going in the meantime.

Thanks sargorn, however my phone doesn't have debugging enabled to I can't adb into the phone in anything other than recovery mode...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] spudtheimpaler:
Hi swiftshifter...

Yes, this is an option to get rid of the unlock part but I'd rather not hard reset if there are alternatives. I'm keeping this as a backup.

I still need to figure out the send event stuff though because I'll probably need this to 'press' the buttons required to pair a mouse.

I think my biggest hurdle at the moment, or the biggest win if I can get it, is to enable debugging mode whilst the phone is on normally as suggested in http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=17910067 But I haven't had a chance to try this yet...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] MindToAsk:
How about going into your market account from PC and remotely install VNC server? One problem though.. how to automatically start the VNC server...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] spudtheimpaler:
A good idea! But yeah, hindered by the same issue. I think long term I'd prefer the bluetooth mouse but for the sake of setting everything up VNC on there would probably make life a lot easier! Can't believe I hadn't though of it to be honest!

Now just to work out how to get it started ;-)

I am stuck with a rather odd issue as of late..I did a full wipe and re-install of Bumble Bee 2.4 on my Virgin Mobile Optimus V phone about 4 weeks ago.

In a summery when I download a new app i back it up using Titanium Backup immediately after the installation is finished. Then I move the app to my SD card. Sadly anytime I want to update that app through the Android Market Place or even the Amazon app store, BumbleBee will crash and restart during installation.

I tried a few things on my own. Such as moving the apps to internal storage and updating then but the crashes still happen. I even uninstalled a app and tried to download it from the market place but the phone would still crash and restart upon installation.

I did some looking around and the only thing close to my problem I could find was this.
