I work with a lot of motorola canopy (wireless point to multipoint and BH stuff not a lot to do with phones) but my point with this is i have talked to asked many of thier engineers a lot of simple questions for similar problems and usually get laughed at so dont hold to many high hopes for calling up there and them handing you the keys lol
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Erebus671:
Its not that they will get pissed, they'll simply tell you that you've voided your warranty, probably laugh at you for even trying to ask and then hang up on you. But hey, by all means, who knows what could happen, and if you manage to get that internship, then you could probably get access to that sbk for us. Not likely though, but still, good luck with that.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anaschillin:

hello all

I was trying to edit the framework-res.apk which can be found in system/framework/framework-res.apk

this file holds alot of images that you can edit (e.g slider, incoming call, icons etc...) framework-res.apk\framework-res.apk\res\drawable-mdpi folder

i edited the png's jog_dial_bg_rev_down.png and jog_dial_bg_rev.png

they are the call slider revamped (just removed the shadows so it doesnt cover the incoming call)

i have used apk edit, Apk manager, APK sign and everytime i build the framework-res.apk and move it to the system/framework/ folder

everytime i move the file my phone either gets bricks, bootloops or get tons of force close down of some apps

has anyone got any solutions how to edit framework-res.apk without all this bricking bs?

i have uploaded the edited images for the sliders on Slider_Revamped.rar
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Eyama:
When you sing apk than you need to replace :

Meta-inf and recourse.so from original framework-res.apk.

You just open both frameworks with 7zip and drag from original to edited;)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] faiyyaz:
i had same issue.. thanx will try ;)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Satch09:
Download "NinjaMorph" off of the market, it decompiles any APK, TAR whatever and allows you to replace any file (including XMLs if you like) from the APK with those on your SD. What I do is decompile the APK then plug my phone in and navigate to where NinjaMorph decompiled the APK to on the SD, which is "AndroidThemes", do the editing on my PC then disconnect the phone, recompile the APK and it automatically pushes the APK to wherever you pulled it from. I've used it many times when I've been messing with frameworkres, it works every time.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] xbecomingx:
Does this method also work with .9.patched files?
[HTC Desire S] old.splatterhand:
Hi out there.

Like mentioned in some threads in dev section i have problem in some ROMs with connecting my phone to my PC in USB/Harddisk mode (but only in some).

When i get connected i see the window where i can choose the mode but when i use USB/Harddisk mode the sdcard is going to be unmounted and nothing happens.

I can see drive letter in my PC but i can't get access.

USB-Debugging is on in every Rom.

The Roms i get no problem:

- All Virtuous Unity Roms

- Shipped Pre-rooted Desire S stock by Adidas108

- RCMix3d 3.5 S v1.2 [Stock & OC Kernel] by proxuser

The Roms where i have the problem:

- VoidU

- All OTA Roms by proxuser, michaelm007

- Hyperion/Endymion

So cause it works sometimes i don't think its a hardware defect.

Maybe it is driver related?

I have installed various HTC Sync versions, AlpharevX fastboot drivers, uninstalled, reinstalled... no changes.

So what drivers do you use?

Other ideas?

Interesting for example michaelm007's Untouched Saga don't work and Pre-rooted stock by Adidas108 works. :confused:
[HTC Desire S] murdocknl:
I think i have the same problem. Windows 7 just saying unrecognized device. With some roms my phone only charge and with some roms it pop up that is connected to PC and what type of connection i want.
[HTC Desire S] kylon:
I have no problems with usb connecions

Try to download the lastest htc drivers,

And anyway,there is a program,named Android commando(or something like this,i don t remenber very well)where you can open your phone on the pc also in charging mode,like adb.

With this you can open the android system,so system,data etc.. and the sd card
[HTC Desire S] murdocknl:
cant find the program.

Just flashed CM7, previously using Alien. Seems like the email.apk in CM7 is the old version or something, not the same released in OTA or Alien, i have downloaded some apks with no luck.

Can someone point me to the apk that was included in the last OTA update? Forced to go back to touchdown... man i hate entering the ping to access my corporate emails.

Thanks,

Use Enhanced Email (in market) much better, no problems for any of my accounts, including exchange.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d11dog11:
Second this. Using it now and it works great. Even circumvents exchange security if you want (optional)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Swiftks:
Yeah, the only thing that quirks me, and I can't figure out, or understand why, is after you open the app, or receive a message... it cause like 10 -15 of my other apps to open (pre-load) in the background. I know this b/c I will kill everything before hand with a task/app killer, open Enhanced Email, close it, and then hit the killer again, and it says like 15 app were killed... not a big deal, but takes a chuck out of the ram if you don't kill the background apps.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hater385:
Thanks for the options but it is not free. :(
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Swiftks:
Nope it is not... but you get what you pay for most of the time ;)

Dev updates regularly too.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beatphreek:
What's the issue with the CM7 email App? It works fine with exchange. Push is fully supported.

I like that you can have multiple accounts and color code them. I it isn't quite as asthetically pleasing as the blur one where you had a folder with all your accounts but it is just as functional.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Dennis_:
Those apps probally auto restart. This is the reason you should not use a task killer. It actually causes more battery usage if you auto kill since auto kill, auto restart cycle uses battery/CPU time.

Not a Root issue

Rooting has nothing to do with your MMS issue, Better check you settings for MMS.

Rooting your phone makes you the boss and you can do anything (good or bad) on the device ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Shery4life:
i use htc sensation and i was thinking of getting a sgs2 but i really love sense and i still love my phone.

i was wonderning if any of the sense as well as the os can be ported to sgs2

for example can htc sensation rom be used on sgs2 if yes then i would buy sgs2

the only reason i'm thinking of getting sgs2 is because of the screen Super amoled but my sensation has also very good screen and that is because of higher resoulation.

please reply back to me let me know if that can be done
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] florelui001p:
Its not possible, sense cannot run on any Samsung phones only HTC. You also couldn't install a sensation ROM due to hardware differences
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dandrumheller:
As far as I am aware, there really isn't a way to get actual "sense" on anything other than a stock based HTC ROM, as the sense features are not open sourced, and function through deep integration with the HTC ROM. So will you see sense on an SGS2 - almost absolutely not.

That being said, the "look" and behavior of sense can be pretty closely replicated through the use of 3rd party launchers, themes, and apps. Your best bet to doing this would probably be to look through dev forums on HTC phones which have a CM7 or other non-HTC based ROM running on them, as some members have probably already tried to do this and posted the apps/themes etc. they are using.

You haven't mentioned any specific features of sense that you would "need" to have, so I guess you would need to narrow those down and see if you could find a suitable 3rd party replacement....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] craigbailey1986:
They are working on this port on the international gs2.... maybe follow them
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SSJ_Gomike:
Stick my HTC if you really want Sense....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dokjon:
So I've done some research on this and couldn't find a clear answer. There are two types of data toggle widgets you can use to turn data on/off . One type will actually enable/disable mobile data. The other type will change the APN settings (for instance, Elixir widget adds/removes '-elixir' suffix to the APN settings) to indirectly control data feed on phone, but the mobile data stays on all the time.

My question is, would these data widgets that alter APN settings save battery? I'm guessing they wouldn't because data actually stays on and the phone would keep searching for data signal...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] servbotx:
If the APN is disabled or can not connect because the information is invalid due to a name change, there is no data connection.

Either way, your battery will benefit significantly.
[LG Thrill 4G] mikeeey:
I can't seem to find a good way to sync my facebook contacts. The regular facebook app doesn't support high-res photos, nick names (such as mom and dad), or manually assigning a contact to a facebook profile.

Other apps I've used have randomly synced EVERYONE to my contacts, I've added people from school, work, etc over the last few years, this is over 300 people!

The best I've used is "Friends Sync", which properly synced about 95% of my contacts, nicknames and all (except of course my mom, who I have as "mom"), but best of all it's high resolution, which looks amazing in any full screen caller ID app. It is lacking the ability to manually assign a profile to a contact, and if you also have regular facebook synced (so I could get those missing 5% contacts), the separate low resolution photo will take priority over "friends sync" and show that when someone calls, meaning you need to disable regular facebook sync if you want high res pictures to show.

Any suggestions or input would be very appreciated.
[LG Thrill 4G] wolfmatters:
Have you tried SyncMyPics? This has a settings option to download highres.
[LG Thrill 4G] Tyqar:
Using the facebook app you can sync the contacts, and then merge them with your existing contact (with the nickname of your choice). This doesn't solve your hi-res picture problem, but it did work for me.

You would probably even be able to merge your contacts that you created using Friendsync, just go into the contact that you created (not the one the app did) and choose to edit. Once on the edit screen, press the menu key and it will give you the option to "Join" contact. Join contacts together, and voila!

Lemme know if this works, if not, sorry.
[LG Thrill 4G] mikeeey:
Excellent! At first I wasn't sure what to join the contact to, being that I can't just transfer a single Facebook contact to my contacts. Then I tried making a second contact with the same name as on facebook. Facebook synced to this second contact i made being that it had the same name. I was then able to join my original contact (with the nickname) with the new facebook synced contact, and now it shows the nickname contact with all facebook info + high res picture.

Thanks!!

[Desire General] wolffer691:
are there any roms with sense 3.0 or better that are for the cdma devices?
[Desire General] MatDrOiD:
Check dev section.
[Desire General] wolffer691:
been there and checked it out but not sure what roms will work with the cmda uscc version of the desire?
[Desire General] MatDrOiD:
If it's not explictly written in the rom's thread, then it's not supported.
[Desire General] Ligor:
I was looking into this as well. It seems all support is for the GSM version of the phone, but much of the US, aside from those on AT&T and T-Mobile, use CDMA phones. I'm currently using CyanogenMod, but I'd also be interested in an upgraded Sense ROM.

There are ROMs in the dev section here that claim to have CDMA support via a CDMA patch, but I've tried all of them, and in most cases my phone will boot, but certain features won't work. I've even had everything work except for wi-fi, which is rather important. For now, I guess there's no Sense 3.0 or 3.5 support for the CDMA Desire.
[Desire General] con247:
Yep, Wifi, accelerometer and some other stuff isn't working. It probably never will. Thats what we get for having a phone that isn't a flagship on sprint/verizon

[Motorola Photon 4G] xTMFxOffshore:
Okay, quick question. I've made a back up in CWM recovery. (Unlocked, Rooted yada yada) If I RSD the 154 SBF can I flash back recovery? It's home base ROM or would I need to reflash it? Thanks.
[Motorola Photon 4G] KTT16:
I think if you flash any SBF, you'll lose CWM...So you'll probably need to unlock and reflash CWM afterward.
[Motorola Photon 4G] xTMFxOffshore:
Yeah. I did that . Knew I would have to. I also found running home base with alien theme and doing a restore after sbf I got some fc's and no service. So unless I missed something this isn't possible with the setup I'm running.
[Motorola Photon 4G] KTT16:
Ahhh that sucks...so you tried updating to the latest sbf and then unlocked and flashed cwm and then tried restoring? Sorry if im confused...but I think because home base was based on an older build it probably wouldn't work..just a guess...
[Motorola Photon 4G] xTMFxOffshore:
Tried it from the 198_7 and the 154_5 builds both failed. And yes you got it.
[Motorola Photon 4G] KTT16:
I remember asking qbking a similar question about alien...he said if I tried updating phone and then tried to flash alien rom there would be problems. I didn't ask for details, and can't be sure what the issues are...did u just want to keep over clock?
[Motorola Photon 4G] xTMFxOffshore:
I wanted to keep the theme. It wouldn't work with 198_7.
[Motorola Photon 4G] KTT16:
You can flash the de-odexed 198_7 stock based rom and run alien theme over it, cant you?
[Motorola Photon 4G] xTMFxOffshore:
Tried that. Force close issues
[Motorola Photon 4G] KTT16:
Damn...yeah..well I wish I knew how to theme...i might read up tomorrow..it seems like such a lame thing, but I guess I really liked the menus and the dialer..the blacked out look was sick...this stock blue dialer makes me want to yack.
[Motorola Photon 4G] xTMFxOffshore:
That is why I am on home base with the Alien theme. I like it. I agree though. The black and green is sweet.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mister Hat:
Can I get a straight answer about the peek of homescreen before the lockscreen comes up. Any devs know where I can look to fix that fade in animation coming before the lockscreen? Im using widgetlocker and it still happens. Stock 2.3.3 of course. Please help.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] moeahmad1995:
It happens even without widget locker. Someone should help him without sending him a link to cm7 or something. He likes his stock rom. I would like to know even though I rarely use stock. The problem is annoying.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tahahawa:
I haven't tried but try turning off animations. It's a problem in the lock screen part of the framework and or the animation part.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mister Hat:
Tried to no avail. Thank you for defending me and my stock. I think I'll just move back to CM7 i just found stock alot more stable. If anyone finds anything thanks! But I'll just stick to CM7 i guess.

I was just wondering why is it a good idea to root ?

What do you guys do once you have rooted your phones ?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] fateoas:
some people likes their phones as they are.

some people likes to make some changes to their phones, as fonts, battery indicator, delete some idle apps, make device a little bit faster and comfortable for everyday using
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] del1701:
I do understand hacking phones, I even used to cook roms back in the day of the omnia 2 but I'm just wondering because I'm new to android, why or should we root the new ones ie, 2.3.3 2.3.4 and what benefits we can gain from it if we don't flash custom roms ?

Oh and I have just re rooted my neo by the way
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] SCHUMI_4EVER:
The biggest benefit is most likely the ability to use Titanium Backup if you're not interested in all the tweaks and custom roms and themes.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] del1701:
Ah thanks, is the free titanium on the market any good ?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] SCHUMI_4EVER:
The Pro version has far more features but yeah the Free version is good enough for a basic backup.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] venoma333:
I personally rooted my phone so I can tweak it. I like using the V6 supercharger to alter minfrees and fix OOM-groupings. I also like playing Tegra games with Chainfire3D. My ROM is currently the SE TWEAKEDv0.5 and my Kernel is DooMLorD's (the new one by inteks) i'm on 283 because I don't like updating for no reason... oh and WifiKill :P (it requires root )
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] tinyXperia:
There's also a tool called ROM toolbox. SassiBoB reviewed it. It is quite similar to TB, but the free version offers more features.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] del1701:
Ah sweet guys thanks I'll look into these.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] evilRafael:
Rooted apps I use:

Titanium Backup:

backs up ANY app and app data, even system apps, and more importantly has the power to UNINSTALL ANY APP, even system apps.

EzBoot:

reboot your phone quickly (turning it off, waiting and then turning it back on is so dumbphone-like).

Root Explorer:

can access hidden system data files in internal memory.

Chainfire 3D:

it's supposed to trick hi-end games into thinking your phone has a Tegra chip or simply downscales textures to improve performance, but I admit I'm yet to see a game that needs this.

Script Manager:

needed to Supercharge your phone (just did that, I'm not sure if this actually improves performance.

Font Installer:

yeah, I changed all fonts on my phone. And yeah, it's pretty useless. :)

AdFree:

promises to block ads on the phone. I was led to believe this is supposed to block ads on all apps, but I notice it doesn't work on some annoying apps with very intrusive ads. It does work on most web pages when browsing the internet though.

FasterFix:

it's supposed to get faster locks on GPS satellites. I'm yet to test it properly.

Before I rooted, the only thing I ever wanted with rooting the Xperia neo was definitely Titanium Backup (I can't stand the sight of demos of Let's Golf and Nova HD eating up space from my internal memory). Now I can count 8 rooted apps here. The thing is, phones should all come rooted, period. The user should be able to choose to give away root access on an app-by-app basis.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] del1701:
Thanks ;) I'll have a look at these ones
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] centavar:
I'll mention the most basic and useful thing you can do to a rooted Neo-uninstall all the bloatware that comes with the latest Neo firmware and free RAM. Those useless apps constantly occupy around 30mb of RAM and decrease performance. I for example don't want that intrusive Facebook app spread throughout the entire system running constantly.That,Titanium Backup and Ad Free are the major reasons to root for me.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] evilRafael:
Yeah, besides freeing RAM, it also frees my blood pressure. I can't stand the sight of demos of "Let's Golf" and "Nova" stuck in my phone.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] taaviu:
I guess +100Mb is no problem to after cleaning ;)
