Hi,

Anyway that i can put the new ringtones into my ringtones list without it appearing in my music playlist?

Thank you
[HTC Sensation] Miloud Florian:
Screen?????
[HTC Sensation] mexxxico:
Copy the ringtones that you want to /system/media/ringtones

To see all download Wallpaper.zip and extract to a directory on your hard disk and see what you like :)
[HTC Sensation] x3nophobia:
do i have to flash ringtone via recovery or extract it?
[HTC Sensation] mexxxico:
Extract and copy to /system/media/audio/....

Thanks for ringtone
[HTC Sensation] ptit developer:
Nice idea man, I will fast download, listen and look them.
[HTC Sensation] dzhoshkun:
Where do i need to put the new wallpapers so they will appear when i scroll trough my stock wallpapers?

I`ve made a folder on the SD card "Wallpapers" but the only way to set them is to open with gallery and to crop them.Is it possible to avoid cropping? What`s the point of having this wallpapers if you need to crop them in order to set them,so they no longer look like original ?
[HTC Sensation] mexxxico:
These are the original wallpapers with models that have higher resolution screens.

If you make them on size of the screen for HTC Sensation, I'll do the same thing as gallery.apk :D
[HTC Sensation] dzhoshkun:
So what`s the point then of having cropped wallpapers if they will not fit Sensation in original?
[HTC Sensation] mexxxico:
What's the purpose to have any kind of wallpaper?

Well, you don't have to watch a black screen :p

I've been trying to think of a decent idea for an Android app that would actually help people for a while now, and finally thought of something worthwhile a week ago. I learned the Android SDK while making this, but still tried to make it as polished as possible.

FlickHopper is the outcome. It's an app for people that go to movie theaters and watch multiple movies in a row. You select your theater, check which movies you want to see, and a "timeline" schedule is created so you can easily see which times will work best for you.

Please download from the Market and post your critiques/suggestions here!

[Android Apps and Games] wuddersup:
Any suggestions, critiques anyone? Very open to them!
[Android Apps and Games] CyberpunkDad:
Provide a link for people to download the .apk that doesn't require the Market. Not everyone has access to it all the time. Just a thought.

One interesting alternative use for this could be for parents looking to find the best time to see two movies at the same time, or near two it. For example, Mom & Dad want to see Chronicle but pre-teen kids want to see Journey. This app would let you easily see when the best time it would be so that the parents could see one movie and the kids another at the same time.

Fantastic! Having current info all in one place is rare, especially on "older" devices.

Edit: Maybe add a section or note about ViperMOD
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Woody:
Nice job Luna.

+1 on the vipermod. That is what I used and it was extremy simple.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] luna_c666:
ViperMOD..the one thing I have no experience in on this device it seems; I did a crash course, seems it was actually based right off of Nachoroot, just a cleaned up command prompt interface, and interestingly works on TF101 and TF201. Perhaps that is why I never used it- the post is located in the Prime forum section :)

Added to OP, guys help me check for accuracy, and correct me if I get anything confused.

Next have some few things to polish up in my thank-yous and try not to leave anyone slighted. Also, thinking of a few more common problems to add to post two. Anything not addressed here just comment or PM me about it I will amend these posts.

THANKS!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Malandro2011:
Hi Luna

I tried to follow the Return to Stock instructions you listed but there seems to be some problems.

I know these problems are not your fault but maybe you know of another alternative which is as easy to follow as well?

I need a WW Version of the packed stock Rom but neither US nor WW are available due to the mediafire problem.

And the recovery is called 8239USrecovery so I assume I can't use it with my WW version?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mcbyte_it:
So theoretically this stock recovery mode will allow us to recover to a stock Asus signed ROM in case the main ROM get damaged? for example if rooting goes wrong or any other reason?

I have an SBK2 TF101, and I don't want to install CWM for the moment but want to have root, and don't want to brick my pad.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] edo2005:
Outstanding post. Thanks a lot...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] luna_c666:
The recovery mode can be used regardless of region or firmware version, and if you are unable to locate the firmware files due to mediafire and megaupload etc. being down, simply retrieve them from Asus' website here;

http://www.asus.com/Eee/Eee_Pad/Eee_Pad_Transformer_TF101/#download

I'll update the OP to make this more clear ;)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] luna_c666:
Yes, if you retain your stock recovery mode then it will be able to flash your firmware in the event that your ROM gets messed up for whatever reason, so long as you use the Stock signed copies of your firmware from Asus (i.e. the official files), recovery mode as stated will only flash official Asus files, they are digitally signed by Asus and without the signature recovery mode will fail.

And to put you at ease, the likelihood of anything going wrong while rooting is much smaller than flashing custom ROMs or recovery mode. Rooting is fairly fail-safe if you follow directions well.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mcbyte_it:
I am asking because, as mentioned earlier, I only need to root for now without going the whole mod thing, because at the moment I am still not convinced that an android tablet suits me, so in case I still don't like it I want to be able to restore the stock ROM without going more into modding CWM and risking a brick.

So, in the case I root then later decide that I want to unroot, it is enough to put the signed stock Asus firmware on the SD card and boot into recovery mode, and it will be unrooted? why is it then that most unrooting guides does this with a special repacked zip file? why not just stock asus zip?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] blickmanic:
sticky! :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] luna_c666:
First, you should know that if you do not install CWM and flash a custom ROM, you will never actually know what you can do with an android tablet ;)

But to answer about why others use special zips, unrooting with the Asus file actually does not delete anything on your system partition, it will simply rewrite all the system files, if there are other files that are unrelated to the rooting process leftover in your system partition those files will remain after unrooting. That is what the unroot zip files do usually, is they delete everything and reformat the system partition before installing (instead of just overwrite installing) to avoid leaving orphan files. But these orphan files usually do not impact your system (the entire system has been rewritten anyway) and for sake of argument your TF is unrooted, as you no longer have root access. To avoid leaving anything in your system after unrooting you should factory restore and delete all user apps/data with something like titanium backup before installing the stock firmware over your old rooted ROM. I will think of how to add this to the OP to make it more clear.

Basically though, if you unroot you will want to manually remove any files that are in your system partition (root directory) that were not there when you first rooted your TF or flashing the stock ROM will simply leave those and overwrite the other folders/files.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Woody:
Just to throw something in here about that. Vipermod does have an unroot setting in it's commands.

Or using terminal emulator or adb

su

rm -r /system/app/Superuser.apk

rm -r /system/xbin/busybox

rm -r /system/bin/su

reboot
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mcbyte_it:
Thanks, now it is more clear :)

I know that rooting is great, as I love the ability to hack devices: My current HTC HD2 is so much modified with Android (remove Windows and put Android on the NAND), this is way ahead than just rooting, and that's why I have little experience with real Android-only devices and their root method.

I'll read some more before deciding whether to root or return and look for an SBKv1 device somewhere (even used)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] luna_c666:
NP, bear in mind I learned all this and I just yesterday discovered that I had a SBK1 device (B70) lol SBK 1 or 2 doesn't really matter as much as people like to make out now that nachoroot and vipermod are here, so long as you only flash recovery OR rom, do not flash both at one time without confirming the other is still functioning. :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] luna_c666:
Yes, I did see that, was debating on whether I should include that as a perk of vipermod, but was trying to make sure nachoroot did not have a similar function included as well before adding that to the OP..can you confirm that nachoroot does NOT have an unroot function? Only vipermod does?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Woody:
Not sure b/c I did not use that method but if Viper is based off of Nacho I would think that there should be some method that is inherent in both. I will re-read the Nacho thread and let you know later on. Also since Nacho uses terminal to push the BB and SU, the commands that I gave above do the same thing just in reverse more or less.

I'll let you know what the thread says about it and get back to you. I am at work right now so gotta keep the side-tracking down, if you know what I mean?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] luna_c666:
BTW those terminal emulator commands seem to only delete the superuser app, the busybox binary and the su binary, which will result in losing root access, not exactly unrooting IMO as unrooting usually means returning to stock rather than just breaking that device's root access

Also, those terminal emulator commands should work on any rooted device with any rooting method, not exclusively the TF101 nor ViperMOD/Nachoroot/Razorclaw etc.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Woody:
Well yes and no.

Unrooting just means taking away Root access. You can still use a custom rom and delete Superuser (although I have no idea why you would ever want to do that) without going back to "stock".

Going back to stock is just that. Going back to stock-ROM. You can run a "stock" ROM Rooted or Unrooted. It's your guide though, so I was just throwing that out there.

Yes

This is a great ADB setup thread for those needing ADB to run NachoRoot.

Great post luna.:)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] luna_c666:
Well, I think for clarity's sake there should be a distinction made between 'breaking root access' and 'unrooting', for sake of argument, breaking your root access will effectively 'unroot', but like it was mentioned this could be done on a custom ROM even, so traditionally when someone inquires about 'unrooting' they typically refer to 'returning to stock configuration', including stock ROM and recovery modes.

Technically you can break your root access while still having CWM installed, but generally folks who are looking to unroot are also looking to replace firmware with stock versions.

Not trying to sound argumentative but I think this would be best to make this distinction clear :)

Great guide, I'd not seen that before- added to OP!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Woody:
I agree. And you are not being argumentative at all. No worries here. Keep doing what you are doing.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] luna_c666:
Unless someone can tell me I'm wrong, after much study it does seem that Nachoroot does not have an included unroot feature, I am going to add to the OP shortly.:D
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Dreamboxuser:
I could have sworn i saw something about unrooting with Nacho while i was checking it out. I'll keep an eye out for it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] luna_c666:
I figured I would link to this, though I feel it incomplete so I'm not putting it in my OP, and it isn't really adding much to what I already have, this user PM'd me and asked basically if they could post a guide with my info and take all the credit, I think it's funny but whatever..to be polite I am linking to his guide here.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1494178

And added Nachoroot info to OP, should be fairly up to date, still working on a few more things for post 3.

Wow. A battle. Maybe we should start a poll for who's guide is better.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] rev1775:
Just for my clarification, I am rooted and now have CWM Recovery installed, but have not flashed any new Roms/Themes.

If I want to go back to stock 100% from here, I would need to flash the Stock Recovery AND the Stock Rom or will just the Stock Recovery be sufficient since I didn't flash a different Rom?

Also, for rooting I used the ViperMod Rooting guide and I am figuring that flashing the stock Recovery will only break root, so if I re-root using the ViperMod then go ahead and use ViperMod to un-root all traces of root should be gone...

Thanks for this guide by the way, as it was a breeze putting CWM Recovery on my tablet with this.

I know you stated that there are 3rd party apps that allow you to boot directly to recovery and I use QuickBoot for my phone and it reboots into recovery perfectly. However, on the tablet it simply reboots the tablet and not into recovery. Thoughts on that or is there a different app that will work instead?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] yukkerz:
This thread was very useful. Thanks man.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] baseballfanz:
If you want 100% stock with no trace of SU you'll need to also flash the

repacked stock ROM via CWM. If you flash only stock recovery, you'll still have a stock but rooted ROM.

Use Gnufabio's Reboot to Recovery

https://market.android.com/details?...sMSwyLDEsImNvbS50cmFuc2Zvcm1lci5yZWNvdmVyeSJd
[Eee Pad Transformer General] luna_c666:
Baseballfanz above answers your questions well, yet I would also like to add that flashing your recovery to stock will not break your root access, for that you would actually have to either remove superuser or make it not functional in some way. Think of recovery as one thing on one side of your internal memory (a partition of it's own), and the rom on the other side (on another partition), the data from the two do not mix at all, so affecting one doesn't affect the other. I hope that makes sense?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mcbyte_it:
So rooting with the above method does something beyond modifying system files in the main root folder of the ROM ( / )? maybe something in other partitions (Boot)? and even putting back a stock ROM by Asus the root will be still there?

Yesterday I rooted my Transformer with the ViperMod method, (i didn't feel like going with the commands by hand, and Vipermod is the same (uses nacho method) but in a batch ready-made script.

later i'll try to put CWM with the RecoveryInstaller, and maybe try some custom ROM.

UPDATE:

I've been reading the unroot procedure, but I am getting questions about it:

the guide says you need to download the repacked stock ROM and flash it with CWM, but the update-script for that package does this:

it does replace the whole system partition with what it seems to be stock Asus system partition, but immediately after that it reinstall SU and Superuser.apk

if the root process modifies the boot partition (or something outside the system partition), it remains still rooted ?! or am I mistaken?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] daranman:
Bump. Needs a sticky!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] luna_c666:
It says this above those download links;

So I assume the script will simply fail to find the SU to install, but to be on the safe side I think I previously suggested to download the firmware directly from Asus, the packages they offer on the website for download are recovery-flashable, which is also why I suggest flashing the stock RECOVERY first and then using that to flash the stock ROM downloaded from the Asus website.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mcbyte_it:
But you said:

so after rooting, and changing some system files, su, integrating some apks in the system apps, then using the stock asus update will leave all those files in their place, and Asus can detect that the rom has been tampered with, while the special zips format the whole system partition with a clean dump of the rom.

anyway, the repacked zip DOES contain the "su" and "Superuser.apk", so it will re-root.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] baseballfanz:
If you go to the 1st post and under "return to stock" section, there's a link to theunlocker site. There you can find repacked stock ROM worth NO su app
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mcbyte_it:
Checked that, it does not contain the Superuser.apk, but it still got the su binary :confused:

anyway, not to keep double posting, I've replied in the unrooting thread
[Eee Pad Transformer General] luna_c666:
This is all the update script says in the stock ROM;

Stock recovery says a bit more;

Looks like you have a re-packed version, just go get the original from Asus.

Alternatively (I'm guessing) you could remove the section from the updater script that says "Automatic rooting", or otherwise modify it to not install the su binary, but you don't have to if you just get the OEM asus file. It is CWM flashable too..but, like I said, it won't format the system partition only write the blob, any files not in the stock blob will remain in your system partition.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Woody:
I am still surprised this isn't stickied yet.

Luna, you should PM jerdog or Mr.Clown and see if they will stickie it.

Not that this will somehow get moved down to the 2nd page (although with the amount of obtrusive ICS ETA threads, it is a possibility).
[Eee Pad Transformer General] luna_c666:
lol I appreciate it, but i figure i would give the mods a few weeks and even then if it doesn't get stickied then my feelings aren't going to be hurt about it ;)

it's in my signature, which was the real point in making it, not to get stickied, just so I could reply to the repetitive posts and say 'check the link in my sig' so it would be helping while not encourging noobs to further ask repetitive questions, alterior motives were to clear out some of the repetitive posts not to get thanks or get a sticky with my name on it (though it probably would be good to sticky if someone were to have the notion to do so)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Aphax:
Thanks so much for this overview <3

I've been trying to figure out the exact consequences of my device having a SBKv2, and now I finally sort of understand.

One question though:

Hmm, I have to say I'm pretty sure I was able to install an OTA update while being rooted though (from .19 to .21 I think it was), or do you mean that the stock recovery itself won't allow flashing stock/signed updates if you are currently rooted? (i.e. have a su binary/SuperUser app installed)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] luna_c666:
Thanks that is poorly worded, a stock rom and recovery does get ota updates, unless you are running a custom rom. However receiving an ota while stock rooted could break your root or otherwise fail to install, depending on the nature of the update :)

And of course the stock recovery is absolutely required to install it in the event that you do receive it while rooted..
[Eee Pad Transformer General] luna_c666:
Ok guys, I've been experimenting with rooting and unrooting all day, I have a new procedure coming and some new information I discovered (well, maybe not 'new', just confirmed).

Sorry I took a break on finishing this guide it is still a WIP.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] rev1775:
Oh good, I will be looking forward to that when you get the guide updated. I've not gone back to stock recovery or un-rooted yet but most likely will if and when ICS comes along.

Your guide has been very helpful in my getting CWM Recovery installed with no issues..

[Eee Pad Transformer General] luna_c666:
Ok guys, brand new video up n the OP, and it's already out of date..lol I just found out that someone has already repacked the Rogue recovery into Gnufabio's RecoveryIntstaller apk (I found multiple copies by multiple people so not sure who did it first, but credit to baseballfanz for having been the one to make me aware).

My video uses the older RecoveryInstaller with the CWM-flashable Rogue zip to do essentially the same thing with one extra step, I will detail this in my video description and in the OP, but packing to go see the circus now so will have to wait a few days.

On a side note- I found some stuck pixels today on my TF while shooting the vid, now I'm upset :( oh well, trying to fix them with a few color-flashing apps now, we'll see, but nothing so far.
