I'm assuming you are using Windows? If so, did you set up adb in the "path"? Is a little to techie for me to explain, but if you know what I'm talking about then you do, if you don't know what I'm talking about then you probably don't :p Google "adb in path".
[Continuum Themes and Apps] ciscogee:
I believe java should be in path too.
[Continuum Themes and Apps] jaycush:
I use windows, I'll look into it tonight if time allows. all in the name of getting new green soft keys and ticket clock. :D really hoping to get the ics/jb soft keys.
[Continuum Themes and Apps] roaddog665:
Good luck! It can be kind of a pain to get set up, but once you do it opens up all sorts of options for this phone. It's a learning process.
[Continuum Themes and Apps] jaycush:
What the heck am I doing wrong that I can't get adb in the path? I swear it's as bad as working with Oracle, you think you got it and it should be self explanatory but there is just one little piece I must be missing. I've downloaded the development tools I have the samsung drivers but everything says adb not there. I see the application in the sdk folder but have no idea what to do with it. I am running windows vista 32 bit if that makes a difference.
[Continuum Themes and Apps] jaycush:
What should the path line look like? I have adb there but now need java. I will try and reinstall java and see if it automatically puts it in the path or if I have to add it manually. I'm learning as I go and there is just so much information spread all over the place it's unreal.

I finally figured it out. Feel like an idiot sometimes, I was over-complicating the solution.
[Continuum Themes and Apps] ciscogee:
sorry i couldnt get to you sooner, glad you got it going, did you view my tutorial on the themer yet?
[Continuum Themes and Apps] jaycush:
I viewed it, will review it, for nervous at the thought of pulling my framework because not sure what that exactly means. I want not screw up as this is my everyday phone.
[Continuum Themes and Apps] ciscogee:
Oh themer won't damage phone, unless u make mods that don't work and flash via cwm

Even then it won't damage, u just have to make zips of apks u are modding for backup restore
[Continuum Themes and Apps] roaddog665:
What ciscogee said... Just remember that when you "pull" something from your phone you are really just making a copy of it, it is still on the phone. I always keep a copy of the original framework, services.jar, whatever I am working on... That way if I make a change that causes problems I've got the good copy to send back to the phone. It can be intimidating at first, but once you've used it a couple times it is really easy. Trust me, if I can do it anyone can! :p
[Continuum Themes and Apps] jaycush:
Thanks to both of you, those were my biggest concerns. Does it need to be in download mode or just only when I push does it need to be in download mode? Last night it looked like it was ready to pull it and all I did was plug it in. I read more of the TUT and will read again and again and download the visuals. Hopefully I can start with ics softkeys colored #00ff0f. I love that color.

Which coincidentally there is a nice dock clock available on the play store. I use it and it is also color customizable.
[Continuum Themes and Apps] roaddog665:
If you are using the themer your phone just needs to be turned on and plugged in. Then start the themer, it should detect the phone and you will have the option to select the file you want to work with. It will "pull" the file, then you can set the options you want, clock color, soft key images, soft key mapping, etc. Then the themer will work its magic and create a new file. Then it will ask you if you want to make a CWM flashable package, which is the easiest way to get your mod onto the phone, so say yes. You then will have the option to rename the package, which I recommend you do so you can keep track of them. Then you will have the option to "push" the package to your sdcard. Do that. Unplug the phone, reboot into recovery, wipe cache and dalvik, install your mod, reboot.

Hope this helps!
[Continuum Themes and Apps] jaycush:
That helped a lot thank you
[Continuum Themes and Apps] roaddog665:
Glad to help... I had to have plenty of it myself. Once you've worked with it a few times and see why things work the way they do it gets a lot easier. With ciscogee and Trailblazer's help I've pretty much got my phone set up and doing what I want, so I haven't been tinkering too much lately... Until someone comes out with the next great thing!
[Continuum Themes and Apps] jaycush:
We have success, ics blue soft keys, now to turn them green. Woohoo!
[Continuum Themes and Apps] jaycush:
Here is what I'm talking about. Go Green!
[Continuum Themes and Apps] jaycush:
I will say this, once I got it up and running it was very simple and easy to use. I will sit there and follow your pictorial while changing my soft keys until I fully get it memorized and start learning what is actually happening. So :good: on the tut. I also downloaded paint.net and was able to alter png files (soft keys) which is where I got the green keys to match the rest of my phone. The next thing I want to be able to do is keep my settings, apps, color scheme and start making it look more like ics over all. Where is the next logical step after soft key pngs. Where do I start altering app icons and change the layout? I was using holo launcher but it just sucks too much battery and makes everything lag. Current configuration has much more zip so would rather alter what I like instead of trying to find a ready made solution.

Another question is what does the altered twlancher do and how do I install it? I need to keep learning this stuff, it's fun and interesting.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trevoryour:
I'm planning on using the UpdatezipCreator from this thread http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1274736 to build an update script for some APK updates I want to package up. It appears this app has the ability to build a update-binary file for you.

I have APK files in both the system/app and data/app that I want to be copied to my phone. I'm confused on a few things.

First thing, can I have multiple destinations for the files in the script? I haven't found any examples with two destinations and there doesn't seem to be a spot to configure the source which makes me think it just takes everything in the zip and puts it in the folder you specifiy in the package_extract_dir function and that adding a second "package_extract_dir" function would confuse it.

The second question is I keep running across scripts that us busybox instead of the built in commands. Why would you need to/want to do that?

This is what I would think would work for my script:

ui_print("Preparing to update");
ui_print("Copying files..");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
package_extract_dir("data", "/data");
ui_print("Done! You can reboot your system now!");

I know I need a mount command before the package_extraction but I don't know which I should use and if I need a second mount for the /data/app folder as well.

"run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");"

or

"mount("/dev/block/stl6", "system", "/system", "rw");"

The folder structure of my zip is;

Zip

/system/app/apk files

/data/app/apk files

/META-INF
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smokin1337:
Do this in your updater-script:

run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/data");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
ui_print("Preparing to update");
ui_print("Copying files..");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
package_extract_dir("data", "/data");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/data");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/system");
ui_print("Done! You can reboot your system now!");

[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] hackmiester:
I am running Liquid Gingerbread ROM version 3.0 and I installed it just two days ago. However, I have already managed to screw something up. Something I have done has caused status bar corruption. When the notifications are closed, my battery icon does not "line up" with the actual meter - the green section isn't the right height and sometimes it doesn't show at all. It's like it is referencing the wrong part of the image containing the bar. Also, when I open the notifications, there is a bunch of random text at the top of the screen that looks like a bunch of salutations - I found the full string and it includes DR, MR, MRS, PASTOR, etc.

What do I need to clear/edit/delete/erase/run to fix this? I've messed around with Android and *NIX for a long time but I am at a loss on this one.

I can't post links but you can see a demonstration of these issues at i.eho.st/ppil41mx.png and i.eho.st/ppqb39u1.png

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EthanMG:
I'm wondering what the phone bootloader update tick box is for in Odin. Some instructions say to tick this if the tar you are flashing contains bootloaders, and others say dont. either way, im pretty sure they get flashed, so i dont understand the purpose of this box. I ask because I'm attempting to make my Odin One-Click and I'm not sure if I should tick this option since the PDA tar I'm using contains the bootloaders. Again, I'm not just lookiung for a "use it" or "dont use it", I want to know its purpose and why it seems to make no difference. Thanks!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrhaley30705:
I've never used it when i made my one clicks. I've always been told the bootloader tab was used only for nexus phones. If the bootloaders are in the pda file, you shouldn't need to check the update bootloader box.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] mickliq:
Given the MTP limitation on the GT 7.7, the only "stock" way to get data onto the Tab is via Kies.

A much more elegant solution is to install "Samba Filesharing" (free app on Android Market) which turns the GT 7.7 into a full SMB server that you can mount -- I did so with my MacBook Air. You can then copy files across via WiFi (no USB cable!).

You may need to perform the SD card hack listed elsewhere in this forum to write to the SD card when it's mounted (even via SMB)...I didn't have any luck until I did that.

Of course there are other alternatives such as Dropbox (or my fave Sugarsync) but these require a sync to the cloud and then a download, which both eat into your broadband data (caps) if you're worried about such things.

Just thought I would share!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] hudl:
Why not use AirDroid? Imo the best tool out there. And you can manage SMS, contacts,... everything too with it!
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] mickliq:
^ I tried AD and don't like the web interface. The nice thing about Samba is that it's integrated into the Finder so you can use the native file copy tools. Makes batch copying a breeze.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] EarlZ:
Thanks for this info, I always assumed that the Tab7.7 also had the debug mode where I can just plug it in like the Galaxy phones, any links to that mounting options for the Sd card?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] onicrom:
adb push anyone?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] mickliq:
Unfortunately not. MTP mode only. If you are on Windows, you can still use explorer to copy, but on Macs you must use Kies...which is why Samba is a better option for me.
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] EarlZ:
Id prefer a file copy over wireless so I need to know how to use that Samba thing..
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] devanteswing112:
ES file manager allows you to administer files from the tab and access network shares including streaming 1080p mkv files. Pretty nifty, but doesn't mount the tab.

What's the speed of "Samba Filesharing" ?
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] burhanistan:
I use DooBlou Wifi file explorer (was one of Amazon.com's free apps of the day) to dump files from my Mac to the Tab. You have to be rooted to write to the external SD card, as with other non-bundled apps, however.

Why would you not? you want Google+ to stop running so what's the purpose of having a app on your phone that you don't want running in the first place?

You can always reinstall it via the market anyway.

I guess I'm gun shy still from when I had my razr, you uninstall an app you weren't suppose to on that and your completely off the upgrade path.

and from the OS developer no less? wtf
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tree of Knowledge:
If you're rooted install root explorer if you don't already have it. Create a directory under /system called app.disabled and move the apk from system/app to there. Problem solved. If you ever want it re-enabled just move it back.

Hello ppl ! :)

Few days ago i became owner of my first android phone, samsung captivate. I am totally loving it, but at some point i realised it has much more potential then as it comes with stock, i made a update with kies from samsung website to gingerbread and i also was able to root my phone, so after researching i found out that this is a best forum for android stuff, spent few days over here reading a lot, but still don't understand how to install custom roms.

my firmware is 2.3.5 , baseband version I897UCKK4 kernel 2.6.35.7-I897UCKK4-CL614489

I'am very keen to start with SimplyStock KK4 V1.0 (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1486344) but cant achieve anything.

as far as i understood, in a first place i need to install/flash clockwork recovery, i downloaded few versions but when i try to install it from recovery mode it says:

E:failed to verify whole-file signature

E:signature verification failed

Installation aborted

i also tried to install few custom roms from recovery mode but same issues

i performed wipe data / factory reset and wipe cash as well, and as far as i understood i can wipe system only if i have clockwork recovery that i don't!

so this is my situation, any advise and help would be superb !

thank you guys :)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Red_81:
Welcome to the world of flashing. First, I would read some of the stickies on how to use Odin.

The easiest way to get CWM would be to flash a kernel with CWM already built in. The Corn Kernel is one such kernel. Flash it with Odin (the tar file goes in the PDA slot). You will then have CWM and can flash ROMS and other packages.

Once again, read first! It can help keep you from bricking your phone.

P.S. Back up your /efs folder (read threads about this one)

Tanks a lot !!!!

I made backup with Efs Pro as a tar file
