Perfect example of why you should read the whole thread before trying to apply a mod/tweak/update to your phone if you don't know what you're doing. Or did you not realize the forum that thread was posted in was for the Droid Bionic? That site doesn't even have an Atrix 2 forum so why you would attempt any of the mods for those other devices to yours is beyond me. Bet you won't do that again :D
[Motorola Atrix 2] msumrell:
Nope wont do that again. Thought I got there from an A2 link saying the root worked. Anyways, any help would be great.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Gadgetz:
Like I said, perfect example of why you should read the whole thread first! The very last comment in that posts says "the next post will tell you how to root your device." That should have been a hint that what you were about to do was not what you wanted to do.

[Motorola Atrix 2] JRW 28:
How are you getting the phone into RSD protocol mode? I tried doing it the same way as my OG ATRIX and don't get the option?

Nevermind I take it you're using AP fastboot mode? Went and dug around the RZR forums to see how they were doing it. You do have all the current Motorola drivers installed? I had problems with my OG ATRIX and had to uninstall them and reinstall them before getting it to work properly.

at this point I have to say it does not work. I have tried from different usbs and get the same results. failed. It is certainly an easy enough process. A am guessing it is not a compatable image? dont know. I also tried just loading teh system.img and grfs.img with moto-fastboot in a dos window and no go their either.

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrMidi:
Hello everyone,

First post as I usually do not have a problem after installing a build.

I just just installed DJ_Steve's GingerStreak 2.4.4

Looks great, install was fast.

Installed with these option:

adwlauncher

density120

us120

portrait

bios

I flashed the phone in fastboot with Steve's recommendations:

fastboot -i 0x413c flash amss amss.mbn

fastboot -i 0x413c flash dsp1 dsp1.mbn

fastboot -i 0x413c reboot

The phone is now giving me this Error Message: The process com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.

I have read through the Dell 5 forum and cannot find a definitive answer. Any help would be appreciated, as I would hate to roll back to 2.2

Thank you in advance

Can i use superwipe from ARHD's page for flashing Runnydroid v1.0? And how do you now if the ROM is ext4 rom? Thanks .
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hopscotchjunkie:
Yes, you can.

I think most ROMs going about these days format the system partition to ext4 during install, but the dev providing the ROM should mention somewhere what file system it uses if this isn't the case.

Edit: as a last resort you can always just check the update script in the ROM zip you want to flash; this will show how your data partition is going to be mounted.

You flashed the stock kernel via odin? which means odins working and seeing your phone?

Probably stating the obvious, but have you killed all the KIES processes in task manager etc? (think there are 2 or 3 you have to manually kill off for ODIN to be completely happy)

If you can flash via ODIN then do a complete install again, because it sounds as though your bootloader has been corrupted . . best of luck!

[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] Benjyp:
I'M OUTDATED YO.

I gave Benjyp senior my awesome Kindle as an awesome Christmas present to my awesome dad from his awesome son so I will not be updating this guide any further!

As of now there is speculation that this guide DOES NOT WORK but I know there are many

better

alternatives to be found elsewhere!​

I'm just gonna get right down to it.

If you don't feel comfortable doing this, please don't!

Here's what I did:

1. Locate your framework-res.apk file found at /system/framework/framework-res.apk

2. Copy onto your computer (I used root explorer to copy it to the "sdcard" and then jut plugged the Kindle in)

3. Download APK Mukti Tool

4. Place your framework-res.apk in the "place-apk-here-for-modding" folder

5. Run Script.bat

6. Press any key to continue

7. Set current project (25) (hint, choose framework-res.apk)

8. Extract apk (1)

9. Go to projects\framework-res.apk\res\drawable-mdpi and observe all of the JPEG image named "wallpaper_xx_xxxx"

10. Replace these files with either one image of your choosing or any other you may want

NOTE: I did not try removing or adding any images, only replacing, if you do let us know what happen!

11. Once you are done editing, go back to APK Multi Tool and "Zip apk" (3)

12. Select "System apk (retains signature)" (1)

13. Next, Zipalign apk (5)

14. Go back to the "place-apk-here-for-modding" folder and copy "unsignedframework-res.apk" elsewhere

15. Rename "unsignedframework-res.apk" to "framework-res.apk"

16. Copy this file back to /system/framework/, I copied the file to the sdcard via usb and used root explorer to copy into the folder (must mount r/w), but if you are more comfortable with ADB than I, just push it!

NOTE: I got a force close error around this point but nothing terrible happened! (I think!)

17. Change the permissions to rw-r--r--

18. Reboot!

19. Enjoy your new wallpapers! :cool:

*You are probably going to experience errors with commands not being recognized with the APK Multi Tool, you must add locations to the windows PATH (just google your error ;))*

Sorry for the exessive length, I was trying to be thorough!

*Edit*

[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] blauciel:
Thank you very much! I got this to work with one slight hiccup and workaround:

Step 13 gave me an error "(Option 24)" and the unsignedframework-res.apk file disappeared. The workaround was to add:

step 12.5: Set current project (25) - Hint: select unsignedframework-res.apk

Then step 13 worked, no error, and the file did not disappear.

On what happened with the images I selected:

I left the very first image intact: wallpaper_01_2422 just in case it didn't like my images. I then replaced all the other images with other images of mine of the exact same filename. wallpaper_02_1953.jpg, wallpaper_03_6474.jpg and so on. I did add one new image, because their wallpaper_05_????.jpg is not there, I put my own in it's place. That image does not show. Apparently there is a filename index somewhere that specifies what images to show. Also, all the images are 840x1024, while the screen size is 600x1024. I'm not sure why the difference, as the images DO get cropped. Also, I accidentally forgot to resize one of my images and it was much larger than the display, so I only saw the center 600x1024. Lastly, my image image file sizes were about 20% of what they already had. So the original framework-res.apk file is 29.8Mb, while mine came out to ~12Mb

Bottom Line lessons learned:

1. There are 21 images, and without further changes, only 21 allowed.

2. The naming convention is "wallpaper_##_9999.jpg" where the ## is 01-04, 06-22. They skipped 05 for some reason. The 9999 is a number they designated, no apparent reason or pattern.

3. You must use the same filenames.

4. Your image can be any dimension, the image is centered and cropped for display.

5. If you want your entire image to show, crop them to 600x1024.

6. File size is unimportant.

7. Each time you turn off the screen, and it locks, the software picks the next image down the line. No shuffle or changing of the order. See the filename list below.

Full filename list:

wallpaper_01_2422.jpg

wallpaper_02_1953.jpg

wallpaper_03_6474.jpg

wallpaper_04_5588.jpg

wallpaper_06_6043.jpg

wallpaper_07_5751.jpg

wallpaper_08_1905.jpg

Good! One other thing, doing this caused my Kindle to lose all remembrance of all things signed in. I had to sign in to google and in to amazon again, including registering the Kindle again. Twice... :/

---------- Post added at 08:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:45 PM ----------

Sorry for the double post, but I noticed after a text search through the unpacked framework-res.apk that each of the wallpapers is listed in this form:

Name: res/drawable-mdpi/wallpaper_14_6752.jpg

SHA1-Digest: w4mPNGSdoaKDPQW9Jf6HI7Jpegk=

Google reveals that SHA1-Digest is similar to an MD5 code that basically verifies the contents of the file. It would seem that simply changing or editing these entries would limit or add more wallpapers.

So are you saying that we have to have 21 wallpapers no matter what or it will not work? Guess if we want just one wallpaper then we have to put the same one on named the different ways?

Sent from my EVO with Tapatalk
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] blauciel:
You can put 21 copies of the same image :-) though I gather you can delete all but one and replace that one with one you like. I just replaced all of them with cropped/resized images from my own photography collection (and one of the erupting volcano in Iceland).

[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] EABonney:
So I tried to replace all the wallpapers with just a single wallpaper..it didn't work. It put my device into a bootloop that I couldn't get out of. :( I had to use parts of the Unbrick thread to get my device to boot again after pushing my original framework-res.apk back to the device.

Trying a few other options now. Anyone know how to sign the apk after putting just a single wallpaper in it? I think the signature is what caused it to get all screwed up.

-Eric

So I got it working by replacing all the wallpapers with a single image but named the same way as the other 21 wallpapers. I still had to go back and get temp root again through adb and set the permissions from adb because as soon as I copied the apk to the folder the device reset on me and started boot looping. It is working fine now but still would be nice to replace with just a single image to reduce the size of the apk, or better yet once we can just do it on the device like all the other devices. :)

This IS a rather silly implementation that we have to work around.

This method does work with 6.2. I tried it with another APK tool and bricked my Kindle. I think the problem is the other one doesn't "sign" the apk. Putting the right framework-res.apk back in place fixed it.
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] Muzungu12:
I had trouble with the GUI interface and changing out the framework.apk out. I played around with adb and I figured out how to due it via command prompt:

You have to root again so that "adb remount" works

Locate android-sdk/platform-tools

Move the new "framework.apk" a new folder to C:\framework

Insert commands without " "

"adb kill-server"

"adb devices" (isn't necessary but I like to make sure that my device is connected)

"adb remount" (changes system files to rewrite)

"adb push /framework/framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk"

Then restart Kindle Fire and it'll work! I don't know if this will work for others, but it worked for me after hours of playing around :)

THIS THREAD NEEDS TO BE REMOVED. ITS BRICKING KF's.​

I did this the day after Christmas and followed it to the letter, and bricked it. It was stuck in a boot loop. After visiting a few irc channels I find out "THIS" thread and its instructions are damaging hundreds of KF's. And the only way to fix it was to get a "Kindle Fire Reset Cable", which is near to impossible considering the only guy that makes and sells them has a huge back order for them. A direct result of this thread.

So I had to make my own reset cable, which is a bigger pain than a bricked KF.

My Kindle is rooted with 6.2.1, with that said it is believed that this mod most likely worked BEFORE 6.2.1. So if your KF is running 6.2.1 don't do it.

Want to make your own cable, click --> here

For any of you wanting to do this, DON'T! Just wait for CM9/ICS.
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] liquidicem:
I found another method yesterday that worked for me. I can't find the link right now though and I'm working from memory as I don't have my kindle in front of me.

I did this a few different times with different methods. I used go launchers wallpaper setting as well as root explorer. You change the wallpaper as you normally would.

Once it is changed navigate to data/data/com.android.settings/files/wallpaper

Then use root explorer to remove the write permissions from the wallpaper file.

Now the kindle won't have the ability to change the wallpaper. If you want to change it to something else you need to go back into the file and add the write permissions back in.

I did have one occasion where the screen would not come back on after the change, but holding down the power button and rebooting fixed the issue. Either way, proceed at your own risk.
