Editing Tansparent PNGs

I have some experience with editing transparent PNGs.

Where is what I did in descriptive terms, with Imagemagick site together it should help you.

1) -ALPHA EXTRACT to get 2 jpg files 1 non-transparent icon and 1 grey scale transparency layer.

2) Do your needed mogrify on the icon colours.

3) -COMPOSE COPYOPACITY the 2 jpg files to get a transparent PNG again.

You could experiment with changing the transparency layer too.

One day I hope to be able to do this ON my device so I can theme ALL my icons in my app-drawer.

EDIT: here's an experimental script for sketchy transparent icons:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trobing:
I am thinking about upgrading to a Galaxy S2 (the International version or Hercules on USA T-Mobile), and I'm just wondering about one thing:

One of the strengths of GS2 phones is the photo quality. Being that photo quality is not only affected by hardware, but also software, does this mean that photo quality will be reduced if I was running a custom ROM on the device (CM7)?

I have not cared much about picture qualities on my previous phones, but by the look of it, GS2 could really be a replacement to point and shoots.

Thanks in advance.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davmoi:
Hi guys,

After a lot of trouble (I will not mention them but it was a long pain for me and my desire!) I've finally unbricked my phone BUT usb doesn't work anymore.

I learn that it's called usb-brick.

Sadly, Exhausted from this fight with my device, I've mistakenly installed RUU from htc with gingerbread. And with the new bootloader 1.02.0001.

Problem: I have not find any method to root the phone without the need of usb link with the installed rom.

I hoped to do it when I read about Gingerbreak but infortunatly, it doesn't work with htc version of GB.

Moreover, because the exploit of revolutionary is not known I can not exploit it directly on the phone.

So, I need root for usb unbrick, but I need usb for having root :'(

Is there a way to root my device without needing this usb link?

(Of course, I can access fastboot usb.)

Have anyone an idea?

I know, it's a tricky question... But I have really no idea what to do...

Thanks,

Dvad'
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davmoi:
My problem is solved if I can become s-off.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davmoi:
Thank for answering.

I read this method but, it works on froyo build only. And I've gingerbread. :(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andQlimax:
Do this:

-extract this on ur computer (its a "portable" version of adb)

-install this widget from the market, it allow to use adb over wifi (without cable)

-try this local root exploit by revolutionary (its work even on 2.3)

after u get temp root, use the flash_image method to flash the misc partition (as for every guide for usb brick fix)

EDIT: Sorry the widget on the market requires root to work..hmm

send it to htc repair, tell they after the upgrade with their 2.3.3 ruu, ur usb stopped working..maybe u get free repair under warranty :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davmoi:
My problem is solved!

In fact andQlimax were right! The idea is to run adb with a wifi connection.

Wifi over adb needs root. I don't understand why because this method doesn't need root:

1° Type this In android terminal. it configure the phone to run adb over tcp.

2°Connect your htc on a wifi network

3° on the pc run:

You can access adb shell, have Temp root with zergRush, and flash your mtd0.img.

Problem solved!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andQlimax:
Then u just did that and solved? Cool :)

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seekified:
I've got this exact problem, but I can't get the WiFi ADB to work. I've got the official Gingerbread RUU installed and the USB is dead outside of fastboot. The terminal on the phone accepts the commands without issue and connecting to WiFi is fine, but my PC just won't find it for some reason. Ideas? I don't fancy an out-of-warranty repair. :p
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andQlimax:
any firewall/antivirus blocking the port 5555?

what the result of "adb devices" from ur computer after the above procedure?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seekified:
Nope, nothing like that is even installed on my PC at the moment. adb devices gives me "List of devices attached" and then an empty line. Is the terminal on the phone meant to return anything when you enter above commands? For me, it simply goes to an empty line when enter the command and doesn't state whether or not is was successful.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andQlimax:
well, after searching this on internet seems that to be able to do this:

setprop service.adb.tcp.port 5555

stop adbd

start adbd

you need root...so I don't know how the previous user, davmoi, managed to do that..

so in my opinion there is no way to use adb over wifi without root..and there is no way to root the desire with gb 2.3.3 without adb..and without root there is no way to restore usb brick..

call htc and say they that after the 2.3.3 update ur usb is gone..(as u was just flashing their ruu, u should get repair under warranty)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seekified:
Pretty much what I figured.

I've spoken to HTC and apparently they consider use of the 2.3.3 update to void the warranty as they've put up several warnings and such on the website... which is pretty crap. I'm guessing it won't be too much work for them to just re-flash it though. As long as I can make this phone last until MSM8960 chips hit the market, I'm happy. Never using Amon Ra again though.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dexterm1:

Strange, I swear I was not rooted when I used these command lines. (Superuser and titanium was saying that.And it was on a stock 2.3 rom so....

I simply enter them in Android terminal emulator with a user shell.

Can you ping your phone on your wifi network from your computer?

Dvad'

Edit: I think that if we needed root the phone would say "operation not permitted" when you enter the command. The problem seems to be elsewhere.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andQlimax:
ur phone was rooted, that commands requires root permission
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davmoi:
Maybe, but in that case, I was able to root a completly stock Gingerbread RUU without adb... And without knowing it!

:/

And if it is the case I can not say how, because I have done a lot of tries with my phone, and I don't remember all of them..
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andQlimax:
out of curiosity ur phone was s-offed when u run the 2.3 ruu?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andQlimax:
after estabilished the wifi connection, u need to get temp root with the zergRush exploit (see my previous post), then in the terminal emulator (on the phone) launch "flash_image misc mtd0.img"

I did the zergRush exploit and "flash_image misc mtd0.img" on the phone. still permission denied.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davmoi:
That's because you dont have Su installed yet. It's normal.

Wow, am I the only one who thinks the stock camera app is AWFUL on the Bionic? I love this phone and it is 100% better than my DroidX, but the camera app leaves a LOT to be desired. Takes 4 or 5 seconds to take a photo. When I tap the camera icon sometimes it just turns blue, then takes the photo 3-4 seconds later. It is VERY slow and the shutter lag is 2 or 3 times what it was on the DroidX. I have tried 5 different 3rd party camera apps, but all those images come out grainy/horrible quality.
