1 Install touch xplorer to device

2 Ensure that you have no media synced onto your device

3 Sync the alert tone you'd like to use to the deivce

4 Launch touch xplorer and navigate to content folder of zune

5 Locate the file you want (will not be known as the filename on your PC, which is why it's a good idea to not have any other media synced to your device)

6 Change the name of the file to "Alert-01" or 02 etc... upto 10

7 Use touch xplorer to copy the file and then navigate to the windows directory on your device

8 Paste the file and select Yes when prompted to over write existing file - NOTE that the original tone will be overwritten.

I will be porting ICS today on the.evo and im a noob on development but should have something that boots up and maybe even passes the lockscreen. might take a day or two I just got my new computer with a new processor and maxed out graphics :)

Hope I dont get beat to it.

Update: got the sdk as I have slow internet :/ going to start to tackle this port tomorrow :)
[EVO 4G General] Mazda:
Good for you man! I hope you don't get discourage from all the trolls that are going to be telling you that you're wasting your time making an SDK port or all that other crap that they tell people that do things they can't!

[HTC Sensation] mohd.abdelkareem:
I currently have the DHD, and I was kind off interested in the sensation XE as a possible upgrade, finance is not an issue, but i was really discouraged after reading about the sensation's ''Death grip'' issue.... I have looked around on the internet but couldn't find any suffiecient responses regarding that issue....

1.do you guys know if the death grip probs are still being reported by sensation XE users???

2. if no, do you recommend me upgrading my DHD to XE??

**motives for upgrade== better specs, better battery life i.e more movies, more **games etc. , better music experience, and last but not least to possibly get **the new version of android and htc sense

p.s plz feel free to recommend any other device for a possible upgrade (excluding Galaxy s2 :D)
[HTC Sensation] dansharpy:
Ive just upgraded from the DHD to the XE and i couldnt be happier! I havent noticed any issues with a 'death grip' at all.

Dual core is smooth and havent had any lag, beats sounds amazing (although i know they have a runnymede port on dhd anyway), the headphones are pretty good and phone feels the usual HTC quality. The thing i noticed the most is the better screen resolution, and as it has gorilla glass, there's no need for a screen protector!

All in all a very decent upgrade and id have no hesitation in recommending it!
[HTC Sensation] Reviewers:
Just wait off there are better phones coming out soon
[HTC Sensation] wmoore:
If you live by that policy, you would never buy a new phone. Or a new PC. Or a new car ......

I've had no issues with death grip on my Sensation. Couldn't be happier that I made the right choice.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] consegregate:
No. But if you do get connectivity problems you might wanna try switching basebands.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] geraldgeron:
i would suggest to you to try both..

you can flash them via cwm..

you can jump between this two if you choose the right one that suits you..hehe

I mean in the instructions,it said that you need 2.3.4,While CyanoAce is having 2.3.7.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] dragonnn:
I think you can flash directly but make first wipe cache and dalvik cache. If you get bootloop make wipe data/factory reset too.

Even I was on BehradGH's CM7. Later on I flashed Cooper KANG without any problems.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drag83494:
Hello.

I'm trying to change the Mac Address of my Xoom tablet.

Region: Europe

Firmware: 3.1 original

Root: Yes

I tried the following:

- some tutorials (I suppose about froyo and gingerbrand) tell to look for a file called "nvram.txt" but in honeycomb doens't exist any file with this name (I used root explorer to searct)

- I found a file ( ect/wifi/mcm4329.cal ) with written: mac_address: .... and one full mac. I tried to edit it with another one but the point is that when I look in "tablet --> info --> status --> wi-fi mac address" I realized the mac address wasn't the same writteng on mcm4329.cal. So I suppose the one I found is not the wifi address.

- I tried with ipconfig | grep HWaddress and similars... from adb shell (--> "grep doesn't exists) and from terminal (--> permission denied)

And thats'all.

I suppose there is some file where I can add some line in a way similar to "edit nvram.txt".

Any idea?

Thanks in advance
[Nexus S Android Development] ahbeng:
I have written this guide as most existing guides for Mac OS X use MacPorts and include steps that are now unnecessary. It is geared towards intermediate users and up, who know some Terminal basics.

I had used the same build environment previously on Snow Leopard and later on when I upgraded to Lion. Now that I have just clean installed Lion, I documented the steps I took to rebuild my build environment.

I did the following on Lion 10.7.2 and Xcode 4.2. As far as I can recall, it should work with Snow Leopard and Xcode 4 and above. Do let me know if it does not.

Setup Build Environment

Install Xcode

Install Java

Install Homebrew: (For more on Homebrew: http://mxcl.github.com/homebrew)

Install Android SDK:

with ADB:

then install "Android SDK Platform-tools" and close the window.

Install Repo:

Install and symlink packages:

Create a case-sensitive partition or disk image:

Download CyanogenMod Source

Copy Proprietary Files

This only needs to be done once.

Connect device to computer and then:

Download ROM Manager

This only needs to be done when ROM Manager is updated.

Edit CyanogenMod Source

Build will fail unless the following edits are made.

Add lines in red to cm7/external/elfutils/config-compat-darwin.h:

Comment out every line in cm7/external/qemu/Android.mk:

Compile CyanogenMod Source

If the build was successful, there should be an update-cm-X.X.X-NS-KANG-signed.zip in the cm7/out/target/product/crespo folder.

Congrats! If you've made it up to here, you can breathe a sigh of relief and enjoy your own hot smoking bacon. :D And when you want fresher bacon:

Update CyanogenMod Source

then build as before.

Building Kernels

If you have done the above, there is nothing much more to add for building kernels.

Install packages:

Download kernel source:

Generate default config:

Compile kernel source:

Best to put the above in a Bash script. Temporarily symlink stat and expr, only for kernel compilation, as OS X versions might be expected elsewhere (like in CyanogenMod's scripts). Other guides for cross-compiling Linux kernels on Mac mention several ways to resolve missing elf.h definitions. Luckily for us, CM7 source already has an elf.h, so we can include it with HOSTCFLAGS="-I../cm/external/elfutils/libelf".

[Nexus S Android Development] viper2g1:
So how do you take the compiled kernel and make it the default kernel in the new Bacon, or will it be automatic on the next Bacon build?
[Nexus S Android Development] ahbeng:
It won't, that's just to compile. The kernel part of the guide is more to document Mac-specific workarounds for people who want to work with the source of the CM7 kernel or other kernels.

If you're just making Bacon, the latest CM7 kernel binary would already be included in the CM7 source. It is the same as what you'd get if you compiled unmodified CM7 kernel source and I think it is a good idea to have that to fall back on.

However, I guess it would be useful to document how to package the compiled kernel and modules in a flashable AnyKernel zip. Bit busy now, will add it later. :)
[Nexus S Android Development] viper2g1:
Ok thanks, it would be awesome to know how to make Bacon with matr1x already set as the default kernel.
[Nexus S Android Development] quaa:
quality post.
[Nexus S Android Development] ahbeng:
I realized that if I started to include instructions for that, I should split it out along with other tips into a new post on how I bake in some simple customizations with a bash script, without a full-blown kitchen. (Because that is not platform-specific) When I have time! In the meantime, some quick pointers:

To change the default kernel for any ROM, you'll need to change the boot.img in the zip using unpackbootimg and mkbootimg, which would have been built along with CM7 in cm7/out/host/darwin-x86/bin (linux-x86 for linux). Copy them to somewhere in your path like /usr/local/bin. Copy the boot.img from the ROM zip and the zImage for the kernel you want to embed into another directory then run the following commands in that directory:

then replace the original boot.img in the ROM zip with this new one. Hope that helps!

PS: And replace the modules in system/modules with the ones from the kernel you want to embed. (Caveat: I don't do any of this manually)

mkdir: /Volumes/Android: No such file or directory

Help?
[Nexus S Android Development] :
You can make your Android folder anywhere, it doesn't have to be in volumes. Just make sure you use the right path in the subsequent commands.

Or maybe you just need to make the Android folder before you make the cm7 folder.
[Nexus S Android Development] Aquethys:
What does mkdir do? Make a directory?

[Nexus S Android Development] Miche1asso:
Hopefully someone is still reading this thread.. I have a big issue. I did compile various kernel and the compilation went fine, but then after I installed one for finally testing I've got a blank screen. then I remembered that at the beginning I couldn't even make the ext4 modules loading. But I just started so I wasn't sure what I was doing. I tested again now:

BlueMoon:common Michele$ rm fs/ext4/ext4.ko fs/jbd2/jbd2.ko
BlueMoon:common Michele$ make modules
CHK include/linux/version.h
CHK include/generated/utsrelease.h
make[1]: `include/generated/mach-types.h' is up to date.
CALL scripts/checksyscalls.sh
Building modules, stage 2.
MODPOST 57 modules
LD [M] fs/ext4/ext4.ko
LD [M] fs/jbd2/jbd2.ko

Which is fine. Also they seem to be compiled for the arm architecture:

BlueMoon:common Michele$ file fs/jbd2/jbd2.ko
fs/jbd2/jbd2.ko: ELF 32-bit LSB relocatable, ARM, version 1 (SYSV), not stripped

I push them with adb in /cache, but when I try to load them I get this:

sh-4.1# insmod /cache/jbd2.ko
insmod: can't insert '/cache/jbd2.ko': unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter

This is from the compiled Samsung source code. Is the cross compiler doing something weird? I've got the toolchain from the google instructions and made it working with MacPort. Do I need a different toolchain? Any OSX/Android wizard here that can help?

EDIT: Never mind. It was the cross-compiler. I used the one inside the CM and now the modules load fine. Great thread anyway.

u can also create an ext part on ur phone with this also

2. rooting u need to do to tweek ur phone

like overclocking & removing any un wanted Bloatware etc.:)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lucaurso:
Hi all!

I've read a lot of threads but I didn't found a valid solution for my problem.

My USB socket is gone..I can use it only to charge the battery.

I rooted (only rooted, no custom ROM) my SGS2 with odin when it was at 2.3.3..then I updated it from Kies to the 2.3.4.. (i know..it was a stupid thing to do) and i apparently lost the root (app that needs root doesn't work anymore).

After a while my usb socket has brocked and now i want to repair it under the warranty. The problem is that over the device info it says "kernel version: 2.6.35.7-I91000XWKI4.....root@....". so They will not repair the phone under warranty.

How could I fix that? I've and USB Jig..

Thanks in advice,

Luca

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chakynet:
That "root" you speak of in kernel version is superuser (root) on Linux/Unix system where that Android ROM was build. It has nothing to do with your phone.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicholaschum:
The best way is to use CWM recovery and flash another kernel on the phone to hide what you have.

Tbh, my friends brand new SGS2 came with a kernel named "root@ubuntu" funny yeh? It wasn't even rooted, so really you don't have to worry.

Then use a launcher with hiding capabilities to hide the Superuser app.

You can do that from your Contacts App.

1. Go into Contacts.

2. Hit the menu soft key

3. Choose More and then Display options.

4. Deselect phone contacts and select SIM contacts.

5. You should now see only SIM contacts. Hit the menu soft key and delete them all.

Hope that helps a little.
[Blade General] mightygoose:
Hello, i have a ZTE - Blade white - Orange UK, and it has too many pattern lock attempts, & my friend has forgotten the token googlemail account she set up with her phone....

so i figured i can just reflash it. but to my reading dismay, it seems i need to identify whether the handset is gen 1 or 2....

is there anyway to tell using the phone serial number?

is there any way i haven't found to hard reset the handset?

is my phone most likely a gen 1, and should i proceed?
[Blade General] Amphoras:
You could flash a rom like GSF that is compatible with Gen 1 and 2. That way it doesn't matter which it actually is. You can check after you've flashed the rom then decide what you want to do after that. GSF thread is here.
[Blade General] mightygoose:
thanks, nexrt problem....

Ok i downloaded the clockworkmod recovery, i figure i can use that the restore to factory settings.... i already have adb installed.

i grabbed the ZTE usb drivers & installed them. i connect the phone, ran the new hardware wizard successfully.

however in ADB it lists the device as offline? on the off chance it recognises the usb device at all...
[Blade General] wbaw:
If it's still on the Orange UK stock rom (android 2.1), then it is definitely a gen1 phone.

For adb: Make sure that usb debugging is enabled on your phone, there should be an icon in the status bar, you can enable it in settings (settings -> applications -> development -> usb debugging). However, if you can't get past the pattern lock, you might not be able to do it.

If you're wanting to wipe it & flash another rom, then a TPT would be the easiest way. Follow the instructions here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1258855 You'll need a microsd card reader to copy the files (poundland sell them)
[Blade General] mightygoose:
well i couldnt get to the status bar to enable usb debugging but the TPT worked a treat.
