[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monstaX:
Is there anyway i can backup my whole ROM as a zip file? I want to be able to bring it to my computer, edit some png's, then reflash and have the modifications up. If there is such thing please let me know. I am extremely interested in this!!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ÜBER™:
Why not just transfer the rom.zip you used to flash and edit the framework-res and systemui.apk's and then gut a flashable zip and place those in appropriate folder and flash that? That's what I do if you need a plain empty flashable I can upload one for you ;)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ÜBER™:
Let me elaborate on that

You take a flashable that already contains an updater-script in it aka meta-inf.

Make a framework folder and this is where you will put your signed and renamed Framework-res.apk then make a folder named System and in system folder make an App folder and this is where you'll place the SystemUI.apk.

*note* you need to sign these when your done swapping pngs and rename them appropriately.

Once done sign the whole.zip boot into cwm and flash it this will replace the stock framework-res etc and you'll be good to go :)

http://db.tt/xfQOB8Kg

Use this .zip for your flashable this will do all the work in cwm mounting wise. Just delete the folders in the system folder and do what I told you above ;)

this post was so noobish i feel stupid
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ÜBER™:
What do you mean? All you'd have to do is open the zip and find the .apks extract them edit the pngs and sign them put them in the flashable and flash it... I'm not understanind your issue
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monstaX:
its because what i want is literally like a clockworkmod backup but as a flashable zip. This is not possible is it? I want all my settings and referennces to be saved along with my messages etc.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ÜBER™:
No if you create this flashable what you edit to put it this it will only change what your flashing like if you put nothing in the flashable then nothing will change. If you want to flash a vending.apk put in this flashable and flash it that's all that's going to change is the replacing of the market...
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ÜBER™:
What do you plan on editing anyways? An app? Your theme?

that would be great:D. if you find please post a link:)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ÜBER™:
Lol if you have windows 32bit ill find my installer on my pc for the apksigner and ill upload it for you xD

If you plan on editing an applications png then once you've opened it and replaced said pngs then it needs to be resigned and renamed to not have the "signed" in it :)

Signing means its certifed and has the ability to be installed as application :D
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monstaX:
lol upload it please. im using apk manager 4.9 but man this really tough. can u elaborate a bit more? im so sorry lol im just not grasping it. :(

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monstaX:
how bout this look: so im trying to make a minor change to an app just for fun. its airdroid. so is the first step to extract the apk or to decompile?

and lol i was trying to accomplish the task of making mynandroid backup a flashable zip but this interests me to.

So, lets get clear, what exactly r u helping me do now? In my head im thinking ur trying to help me edit an app and then install it in my phone right?

if im wrong then tell me what we are trying to do!! lol
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ÜBER™:
Yeah that sounds like its much more difficult then what I use what I use you drag and drop the finished apk and it signs it lol simple ;) give me a minute to find it upload it and paste a download link..pc sucks arse phone is much faster....:(

Edit: yes I'm helping you edit an apk and then have it install on the phone or be able to be pushed to the /system/app folder...

Which part is specific to the phone? I obtained the unlock code for my phone from T-Mobile, but right now I don't have another SIM. I would like to enter the code before I get to China and find out the code I'm given doesn't work. I remember on my old Motorola phone I could enter a sequence in the dialer to bring up the unlock function, enter the unlock code, and it was good. Is that possible on the MT4GS?

Do you recommend the method from the sensation forum, or your method?

They are both posted under the sticky in the general section.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
If you can get your hands on an AT&T or other non tmobile sim card, you can unlock your phone. Just insert any "foreign" sim card and the phone will prompt you to enter the code.

lol, flag down a friend and use their sim card for a few seconds
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] abcdavidefg:
I'll try tipping **05*06390811*1234*1234# but it gave an error and then 9 try left. The method for the sensation didnt help either.

You can always call tmobile (if you have tmobile) and say that you are going to leave the country for 1 month and need to unlock the phone to use it outside. They are legally obligate to give you the code if you have been with them more than 6 months (or something like that). I dont know what are the laws outside USA
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
That's the reason why I started this thread. I don't have tmobile, so I can't ask for a code from them. I was hoping someone else on XDA would be able to help me out with that, by requesting a code for me.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ratchetrizzo:
I used a 8 year old NEXTEL sim to get the unlock prompt :)

I was totally aware it would not connect to any network afterwards, I only needed the prompt.

I did verify it (days later) with a AT&T sim and all was good
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Droidmoder:
You have to have root to get the msl code threw the terminal . You did something wrong I can assure you it does work.

I have never used the second method in the sticky.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Etn40ff:
IFRC they are the same thing; the sensation had 2 alternatives and the one I posted is just one of the two. I would use the one I posted, it requires 2 lines of adb but should not be too complicated.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] qayshp:
Finally got around to installing MikTouch and using the unlock code found earlier. It worked perfectly!

I did find some things odd though.

Even though I am "eligible", T-Mobile could not provide an unlock code for this phone. They said they don't have authorization from the manufacturer. Odd, as 611 provided codes for every TMo phone I or a friend has ever had, since 2008 until this one.

The T-Mobile UK SIM I popped in didn't get a unlock prompt even with MikTouch, but actually worked! I had to use a different SIM just to get the prompt. The same T-Mobile UK SIM in my partner's phone (TMo US locked Samsung Vibrant) however did cause a prompt for the unlock code.

http://www.clearprotector.com/samsung-galaxy-tab-10-1-extended-protector.html

Free shipping, usually takes only a few days. Oh, yeah- they also have a standing 50% off coupon: iwantultra

Had them for 3 different devices now. I like the extended protectors, but you can just get the screen cover if that's all you want. They go on wet, takes about 45 minutes to work out the water (and bubbles, if you don't know what you're doing) and stays tight, even after several months. Also, they have a lifetime warranty that I tested and they really will send you a new set, just ask in an email (they ask that you send them the old one back in the envelope). Great protectors, great people to deal with.

Also: to those folks that think gorilla glass is all you need to protect your investment: 1) scratch-resistant is not the same as scratch-proof (think "water resistant" vs. "water proof"); 2) there's several other benefits to these protectors, including reducing screen glare and increasing the texture (if you like that; I do); and 3) the back of the tablet is not made of gorilla glass.
[HTC Desire S] smash_07:
Hey everyone. So I would like to bring you some discussion here about on what the future holds for our HTC Desire S when it respects to the official HTC support.

The main question here is, what do you think that HTC will do with the Desire S? Will they bring ICS to it? Will they try to be soft and bring just Sense 3.5? Or is our Desire S done and no more updates will come? It would be quite interesting to see what everyone thinks that may happen in the next few months :)
[HTC Desire S] djisgod:
i doubt very much we will see anymore major official updates ,just maye a few revisions.htc support there phones pretty badly tbh,and as much as i love my desire s and this community i doubt very much i would purchase another one of the htc phones as it will carry on the same legacy i expect .
[HTC Desire S] dan-fish:
I think HTC will do nothing. They can't support all the phones they released which is why they've decided to take it slow
[HTC Desire S] AquaSheep:
I hope that HTC is still going to release an ICS update for Desire S, but that's probably false hope. HTC has released too many phones (about 5 different versions of the Sensation?) to provide support for every phone. They will just concentrate on the higher-end models, which unfortunately the Desire S isn't. Luckily there is a great community working hard to provide us with future updates :)
[HTC Desire S] Deleted member 2496007:
The current/typical market trend IS to take advantage of the thirst for the bleeding-edge OS and the cutting-edge hardware, and as businesses, they'd be mugs for not exploiting that. There is no way HTC had any serious plans for giving the Desire S official ICS ROM. However...

They (HTC) have gotten the balance wrong this year and they know it. Too much quantity, not enough quality. Sooner or later, even the rich kids will get fed up of being 'expected' to upgrade a handset every 8 months to stay 'on trend'.

At least HTC seem to have taken note of this...

http://www.engadget.com/2012/01/26/htcs-uk-ceo-wants-to-ease-off-the-new-product-gas-focus-on-am/

Don't forget the original Desire did eventually (through popular demand) get an official gingerbread update, just that HTC never designed the phone's hardware to cope with the increased size of the OS over Froyo. So disclaimers were required should we then complain that there were only enough room for 10 apps once 2.3.3 was installed!

But on the flip-side this is why you chose Android. This is why you chose XDA. You want something that comes out of the box, and gives you the opportunity to improve it in your own way, to your own liking. To take the initiative. We almost need HTC to drop the ball so we can pick it up and run with it.

The day a stock Android phone comes out of the box perfect to everyone's needs for years after its purchase will be a sad day for XDA.

:)
[HTC Desire S] djisgod:
what he said..... hit the nail on the head with that one
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
Fair enough, I would have believed HTC if they released a official statement about Desire S not meeting hardware requirements.

However, hearing that the Sensation XL is receiving ICS really got me annoyed. It proves the hardware is capable.

The XL is almost identical to us, apart from the OC'ed chip, and thats getting ICS.

I don't see why we can't get the upgrade.

Where is HTC's announcement of the second wave of devices that are getting ICS too? We are still yet to hear from them.
[HTC Desire S] Deleted member 2496007:
Sorry, i wasn't suggesting that the desire s couldn't cope. I'm pretty sure it could. Just saying that in my opinion it's unlikely HTC will be in a hurry to stop us buying more handsets, and it will be good to see what the devs here manage to port for us.

This week a friend asked me what he should upgrade to this march. He has an old desire, and isn't a heavy user. Not interested in dual cores or massive screens. I looked at all the options and it was still the desire s or the Xperia Ray.

The only reason i recommended the xperia ray was because he HAS to have a Vodafone upgrade. Vodafone's stock ROM on the desire s has that ludicrous 'pocket mode' forced on, and you can't turn it off. 8 hours battery life max. My dad ended up sending his back for that reason. He wouldn't let me root it!
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
No mate, I wasn't ranting at you ;)

I was criticizing HTC for their poor decision. If the XL is getting ICS, we should get it. We have the same specs.

Heck, even the 2010 phone, Desire HD has near identical specs as the XL. Even that, should get ICS..

Silly move by HTC.
