If you can give a bit more detail, we can probably help you. So far, you could be experiencing anything from the same statusbar as before all the way up to a brick..

If you're anal for not liking that AT&T crap taking up screen estate that could (and SHOULD!) be used for actual notifications...Then I'm just as anal!

And so a 'Thanks' for you for doing this!
[LG Nitro HD] schwin97:
You would think with a 720p screen we would be ok with AT&T plastering their name on our phone, but that is not the case... I will also be trying out your version shortly.
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
dang, nice work, thanks!

i am the same, besides, ATT is written on the phone about a 1/2" from the spot on the notification bar, irritating to say the least.
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
WE HAVE OUR FIRST DEV!!! well....somewat :D roflmao!!
[LG Nitro HD] itiskonrad:
Haha, oh dear god, no. I'm just obsessive =)

Anyone actually try it? Have any problems? The only problem I can envision is not putting the proper permissions on the new SystemUI.apk or someone trying to unzip SystemUI.apk instead of just dragging and dropping status_bar.xml into the layout folder of the unzipped archive. Otherwise, I tested it a bunch and had no problems on my phone! Someone please let me know I'm not sabotaging phones all over the world right now =)
[LG Nitro HD] netnerd:
can you also replace the stupid annoying battery icon with "% battery".

WTF is google thinking?? that stupid stock battery icon doesn't do anything but take up spaces!

WARNING! you might brick your phone, i tried it, and my freaking phone wont boot! and freaking LG is not putting the recovery rom on their "LG software updater"!
[LG Nitro HD] itiskonrad:
Well, crap. Sorry dude. I can't change the battery icon to individual single percentages yet. The best I can do is replace it with images that will show % at 5% intervals (there's a different png for every 5% charge of the battery in the framework already).

How did you try to put the status_bar.xml into your SystemUI.apk? I'm sorry it's doing that! Is your systemui otherwise stock?
[LG Nitro HD] netnerd:
i didnt try your status_bar.xml cus i'm scare! haha

i used uot kitchen to cook % battery and i replaced the files, and my phone wont boot up.
[LG Nitro HD] itiskonrad:
Ohhh, thank god. I thought I ruined your phone! Yeah, you can't use uot kitchen right now. If whatever it produces doesn't bootloop your phone, it still won't work. Most of the image files are in xhdpi folders (for 720p screens), and since kitchen only supports up to qhd, it'll change the files in the hdpi folders, most of which are useless to us. But it will still screw with the xml's causing disaster. Can you do anything with your phone now? Can you push files or anything? Kitchen uot will only screw with framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk. If you could at least still push files to your phone through your computer, I could give you the original two system files to put back onto your phone and overwrite the kitchen uot crap...
[LG Nitro HD] netnerd:
i already exchanged for another new one from att! good thing it' within my 30 days.
[LG Nitro HD] itiskonrad:
Haha, yay for 30 days! So do you have any interest in switching the battery icons? As I said, I can make the battery show 5% intervals, (ie 5%, 10%, 15%, etc), but I can't show any higher resolution than that yet (still working on it! I'm new to this, remember =)). Let me know if that's something you'd be interested in/willing to risk your replacement phone for within these first 30 days =)
[LG Nitro HD] netnerd:
i'm not touching this phone until there' a recovery rom available. doesnt look good keep exchanging the phone.
[LG Nitro HD] itiskonrad:
Haha, that probably is the prudent thing to do...
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
ola, i am trying to switch the files via ninjamorph but i cannot find the apk, could you please provide the full path to the file?

thank you in advance.
[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
Off topic question here....well while we are talking about bricking phones lol....

Has anybody tried returning a bricked phone, beyond the 30 day exchange window (with warranty as well as insurance)? I'm thinking of bricking my lovely atrix n exchanging it with the nitro. Does AT&T question the hell out of you to figure out what happened?
[LG Nitro HD] itiskonrad:
So sorry for the slow response! Went to bed early =) Full path is:

system/app/SystemUI.apk/res/layout/status_bar.xml

Let me know if everything goes smoothly! It really should, I tried it a million times, I'm just super paranoid about ruining someone's phone.
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
thank you, i swapped the files via ninjamorph and restarted, ATT is still there. :-(
[LG Nitro HD] itiskonrad:
You're kidding! Can you copy your status_bar.xml from your phone (the one that should be the modified one that ninjamorph put on your phone) and post it on here or something so I can look at it? The only thing I can imagine is that ninjamorph failed to actually swap it out. With the width and font size being 0, it's quite impossible for it to still show AT&T. Have you tried the manual way, copying SystemUI.apk to computer, dragging and dropping XML into res/layout, moving back to phone, copying to system, changing permissions, then replacing SystemUI.apk on phone with new one (which I prefer anyway), or is it too complicated?
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
HI, I would be happy to copy that file, but I am not sure how to do that. It very well could be that nm is not swapping the files, am i to see a confirmation after it does? Because I do not.

I've read the manual way many times and have decided I am not comfortable going that route, although I appreciate your posting that method. :-)

---------- Post added at 04:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:40 PM ----------

OK, i figured out that I was not finishing the nm switch project. so now that I am finishing, it is asking if i want to zipalign the switch.

do I want to zipalign?

thanks in advance.
[LG Nitro HD] itiskonrad:
Okay, I just tried it with Ninjamorph and can confirm Ninjamorph can't copy the xml file over for whatever reason, unfortunately. It thinks it has, but when I extract the actual file from my phone, it's still the original. For whatever reason, it can't shove it into SystemUI.apk, so it looks like the only way to get it on is by manually putting it into the SystemUI.apk file extracted from your phone. I will edit the first entry. Sorry! =(
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
what did you choose for zipalign?
[LG Nitro HD] itiskonrad:
No. After restarting, it was identical. I checked the file and it was still the original. Swap never happened. Then I tried the manual swap again and it worked fine. Doesn't seem like Ninjamorph could swap it out...
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
well, crap, i finished the ninjamorph project and now i do NOT have a notification bar.

and advice?

---------- Post added at 05:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:07 PM ----------

i rebooted and the original notification bar is now showing again.
[LG Nitro HD] HotWhipT/A:
First post! LOL. This doesn't look to complicated.

Is this only to remove the logo or does it also include the blue icons? I want the blue icons!

---------- Post added at 03:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:39 PM ----------

Turns out I can't figure out how to backup SystemUI.apk. I searched for awhile with no luck. I'm a total noob at this so if you can explain in detail like you said, that would be wonderful! What to use, apps, how, where....etc. I tried using Astro and I found it, but it won't let me copy it and i don't know how or where to put in on the SD card.

Thanks in advance!
[LG Nitro HD] itiskonrad:
Haha, the status_bar.xml only includes removing the AT&T carrier logo, but if you want, I can send you the framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk that will give you the blue icons as well. Then you'll just have to swap out both of those apk's with the ones I give you using root explorer. You're comfortable with root explorer and you have root, right? I only ask cause I can't bear the guilt of bricking someone's phone =) My modifications so far include:

blue battery (framework-res.apk modification)

rest of blue icons, ie, signal, wifi, etc (SystemUI.apk modification)

solid black notification bar instead of that weird gray (SystemUI.apk modification)

remove AT&T logo in notification bar (SystemUI.apk modification)

removed lock-pattern buttons, since I don't want them blocking my screen and I know where the buttons are (they appear when you press them) (framework-res.apk modification)

Tell me which of those you want and I can upload the necessary files so long as you're fine copying them onto your phone and changing the permissions with root explorer! (I don't think ninjamorph/metamorph works for some reason). If you're not, I'd be more than happy to tell you in excruciating detail if it'll save you from ruining your phone
[LG Nitro HD] itiskonrad:
Haha, okay. You wrote that right before I posted my last response. First you need root, then you need root explorer. Then we can start copying and pasting to and from the system folder of your phone. Do you have that stuff first? I sent you a pm in case you need grosser details =)
[LG Nitro HD] HotWhipT/A:
My phone is rooted. I do not have root explorer. Is it the $3.99 app? Either way, i don't know what I'm doing yet! LOL

I'd like these:

blue battery (framework-res.apk modification)

rest of blue icons, ie, signal, wifi, etc (SystemUI.apk modification)

remove AT&T logo in notification bar (SystemUI.apk modification)

My status bar is already a nice blackish fade...when I pull it down, the background is dark gray with white notifications. I like it as is.

I was a iphone user...I really liked having the battery percentage, but I'm noticing that isn't possible....yet. I see you are working on something. In any case, I have a battery indicator app that shows me an icon of a gray battery with the percentage inside.

Other than the so so battery life, I love this phone! I wish they had more cases available for it. I'm naked for now.
[LG Nitro HD] itiskonrad:
Hmm, you know, it's been so long since I bought root explorer, I completely forgot it's not free. Okay, if you don't want to pay, I think the free es file explorer will do the same, but let me get home and test it on my own phone first before I suggest you try it (taking the metro home right now)
[LG Nitro HD] itiskonrad:
Ok, do NOT try ES File Explorer. Root explorer all the way... ES file explorer did not work. SystemUI.apk was okay, but framework-res.apk = disaster. I'm the proud owner of a bricked phone. Off to att store I go... wish me luck
[LG Nitro HD] HotWhipT/A:
Damn, I'm sorry. Best of luck. Stuff is touchy!
[LG Nitro HD] V@no:
Yes, please! At least something rather then waste of space with no numbers showing as full when in reality it's 71%:eek:

And while you at it, can you remove that useless headphones icon? When we plug in headphones, do we really need reminder that they are plugged in? Seriously?

Thank you.
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
itiskonrad,

If/when you get a new phone, I'd love all your mods rolled into one with the exception of making the pattern lock invisible. Please just give us the step-by-step and include instructions that you think would be obvious, but that a noob might miss lol
[LG Nitro HD] itiskonrad:
OKAY! I'm back in business! Yes, so, lesson learned. ES file explorer is no root explorer =). I spent quite a bit of time getting everything back to normal on my "new" phone, so I think I'm done for the night. But tomorrow I will prepare a set of apk's with the changes besides the invisible lock, as requested. I will say, though, that given my most recent experience, my instructions will require root explorer, which, I know, I know, costs a whopping 3 bucks or so, but it's totally essential for all phone modding in my opinion. Sorry to have to use a paid app in my instructions, but I know it works, (I know es file explorer didn't), and when there's still no recovery mode yet, better safe than sorry =)
[LG Nitro HD] V@no:
Now I'm confused. What exactly can't ES do what Root Explorer can?
[LG Nitro HD] itiskonrad:
When replacing framework-res.apk, a system app required for running the operating system, but also a desirable one to change icons in =), root explorer will allow you to copy the apk into the phone and initiate the new changes after a restart. Es file explorer tries to start reading the new framework-res.apk immediately as the file is being copied, which is obviously not good for an operating system...and so the os freezes/shuts down/becomes basically unsalvageable without a ROM backup accessible before the os starts up. Other apps, like SystemUI.apk that are always running, but aren't as core as framework-res.apk, can be swapped with es file explorer, but again, the phone immediately tries to read them while copying, so the phone looks and acts bizarre until you restart. So either way, for this sort of stuff, I can't recommend es file explorer
[LG Nitro HD] V@no:
As far as I know replacing either .apk with root explorer on Skyrocket would produce non-stop FC of notification bar, it continues FC until rebooted. But what you say makes sense, because ES uses notification bar to show progress when copy files.

Good to know.
[LG Nitro HD] itiskonrad:
Okay, I'm going to just start a new thread for installing the removed carrier and blue icons all rolled into one (no invisible lockscreen, don't worry). This will of course require root and root explorer, and again, I make no guarantees to anyone! We are all living dangerously without a recovery mode =) But if you are so inclined, you are welcome to try the methods I'll describe which have worked peaches for me. Before I start, I figured I'd just list the combinations now so I can have the files ready.

1.) No carrier only

2.) No carrier, blue icons, blue battery

Nobody wants to have the blue icons WITH the carrier, right? That seems weird to me, but you never know. To each his own =)
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
Lol, you might as well just go ahead and offer the blue icons and battery separate while you're at it if it's not too much trouble. Somebody will probably want it eventually. Will you provide uninstall instructions as well?

Awesome work so far!
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
i am going to give this a whirl.
[LG Nitro HD] itiskonrad:
Uninstall is basically doing the exact same thing, only putting back your original SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk back into your phone and overwriting the modified ones.

I actually can't make separate files for no carrier and icons, etc, since the files that are required overlap with the same apk's. So I can make a whole package with each combination, but I can't very easily have a "mix and match" if you know what I mean.
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
can you make mine say *dude* in seafoam green?
[LG Nitro HD] itiskonrad:
Haha, while that's very possible, it would take some experimenting I would only be comfortable doing with some kind of recovery mode =)

Dear Fellas,

After reading a bit through the pages of this Q&A forum I realized that there is no thread describing a proper method to flash a stock firmware into our "stock" tablets, I mean, without any customization or root.

Anyone please, could share his knowledge and enrich us into this subject? Yes, anyone knows how to proceed to flash a stock firmware through microSD?

Just to make things clear as possible, my wondering extends to which files add into microSD, the correct format, the correct structure to flash.

Really appreciate ideas and directions.

Cheers

Get the firmware you want from the asus webpage, extract it, find in the extracted path another zip archive and rename it to EP101_SDUPDATE Make sure you leave it a zip dont change the extension AND make sure it is on the root of the card... boot by pressing the VOL DOWN + POWER button... as soon as you see some text press within 5 sec the UP button....and wait

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samawil:
Hi everyone,

My N1 is stuck on the X, but my problem seems to be different to the other "my nexus is stuck on X" threads, as I've tried everything that was suggested and am still stuck...here is as much info as I can give.

My phone is rooted (has been since day 1 when it first came out) but I had not used it in a while.

The last rom I had on there was Cyangenmod 5.0.5 (or something like that.)

I booted into recovery (amon_ra from back in the days) and tried to flash Cyanogenmod 7.

The phone booted up, got passed the X but got stuck on the android on the CM circle with the rotating arrow...only the arrow was not rotating.

Anyway, I went back into recovery, and tried again...same thing...so I tried 5.0.5 and that worked.

Happy with my success I tried to install clockwork and try again...

this time, the phone got stuck on X...

tried going back to 5.0.5 but again, phone stuck on X.

So I tried to go back to stock.

fastboot flash boot boot.img and user data.img worked fine but system would fail.

I tried the PASSIMG.zip, but 7) system was fail-PU

read some more and some people said that with hboot 0.35 this was not possible, so I managed to downgrade to 0.33, but that didn't help either.

I've tried Clockwork and Amon

older roms and newer ones

PASSIMG.zip from different sources...nothing has worked.

In hboot now i have 0.35 and underneath I have a B (which I think is for amolded)

I've can't seem to get ADB to work either...I have done in the past, but for some reason this is not working for me this time...fastboot yes.

Could anyone PLEASE help me...

Thanks,

Lou
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Fail-PU means Failed Partition Update, means your internal memory on /system partition couldn't be written, means a dead NAND, means your phone is really bad.

You could try to recover from it by using Blackrose hboot, and repartitioning the device.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samawil:
Blackrose it is...I'll try that..thanks

L
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samawil:
So I got blackrose on, but that didn't help...still the same thing...

I've given up on the phone, but I'd still like to solve this, now that I've devoted som much time into it :(

L
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
You don't need to just load Blackrose, it won't solve a thing. You need to repartition your phone, making sure that the /system partition isn't sitting on the bad block. Try to move /system partition forward, making /data smaller.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samawil:
I partitioned it as per the blackrose thread...are you saying i should use different values? could you recommend some to try?

L
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
I can't, because I don't know where the failure might be on the /system partition.

Try to change values between /system and /data, for example (move /system into /data). Just for testing. You'll need to find some position for it that won't cause write failures, and there's nothing I can suggest but to try and see at what address the failure seems to be, and repartition in such way as to exclude this address.
