Hi,

I would like to express my opinion on the latest Westcrip´s rom, the v9.1.

It´s perfect, very, very smooth, the battery is excellent, it almost lasted 48

hours, no more FC´s, crashes or reboots. The speed data connection, the

speed internet connection and the stability are 5 stars.

Just ask one thing, see the portuguese language, but Portuguese from

Portugal not portuguese from Brazil. I have nothing against Brazil, on the

contrary, but there are many differences on the words.

Good job Westcrip, the 9.1 is magnificent.

Thanks.

Does anyone have the stock system font zip file? I want to revert back to the stock font. If anyone can pull that up for me, i would be very thankful to them
[HTC Wildfire S] intel007:
Search "font installer" in the market its by jrummy, install it then choose stock font and install it.

Hope this helps

Well let's hear what you are using and why.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] THE_KINGDOM:
For me I'm loving AOKP its seriously amazing. I like to have lots of tweaks/mods.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Truballa4real7:
I'm using codename

Right now works well for me
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bekyndnunwind:
Loving AOPK! Best features, stability, speed (even on stock kernel)...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aagvain:
Bugless beast. Reminds me alot of enomthers n1 roms. Not alot of bells n whistles but extremely rock solid/stable and amazing battery life.

Personally not looking for endeless mods although that can be fun. I just wanted a rom that does everthing i need it to do well, and that i dont have to have the phone constantly connected to a power source.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Kid Cassidy:
Honestly, from the title of this thread i would assume the OP was talking about the different Galaxy phones on different providers? and not custom roms on the Galaxy Nexus? Maybe he could chime in an clarify this :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chopper the dog:
Is it just me or is there one of these "what's the best" threads created daily?

good day.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TechBSwift:
hands down the best rom out there is Liquid on rootzwiki no question!!!!!! It does everything every other rom does plus more.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yiannisthegreek:
I'm using FoxHound ROM. Good performance, nice custom features and a nice black theme...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
The one you like, is the best rom for you.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Kid Cassidy:
Okay just so everyone doesn't think i'm crazy from my post earlier.....the original thread title was ( What do you think is the best galaxy from and why?) till the OP edited it! ;)

Probably, Minutely :eek:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
I wish it was minutely.

Long 'u' btw.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kindatired:
I think people missed the point of this thread. I see people asking what is the best from all the time. What I wanted to know is why people decided to choose the rom they are currently using.

Is it because you wanted a ton of features, do you want to keep to the stock experience as much as possible, etc etc.

The question was, "What do YOU think is the best rom and why?" It wasnt, "Tell me what the best rom is because I can't find out for myself?"
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
The best ROM out there is the one YOU want because of what features it has to offer. Go read all the ROM threads and take a look at the features, screenshots, user feedback.

You don't need a special thread for yourself for people to tell YOU what's the best ROM. There is no absolute answer to that question. It's like saying what is the best car out there? the best car is simply the one that fulfills your needs.

This goes for kernels as well and there are 50 other threads with this same question. Use the search feature and read existing threads.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gogol:
Stock rom on gsm model is the best :)

Why? Using 2000 mAH battery, I could get 3 and a half hour screen on time with more rhan 3 days stand by. Or almost 6 hours screen on time with 2 days stand by :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] heo_con184:
Totally agree :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chuckdz3:
Gotta atleast try AOKP. Customization, battery life, extra features and runs smoooth. Although every phone is different you might just want to try a couple different ones and see which one is best for your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Kid Cassidy:
Im coming from a D1 that i had for 2 years and was rooted and rom'ed up since day one. With the D1 most people including myself would reboot their phone once a day to keep it fresh and (lag free) Atleast, for me after a day or so i would notice some slowness to it....But with the G-Nex there is no slowness :)..its snappy everytime i use it..havent rebooted it in 4 days and it doesnt even blink...So my question is...is that because of the difference in RAM between the phones? or does anyone reboot their phone as a daily routine still?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Most likely.

With 256mb, ram has to be watched, and a memory leak is fatal.

With 1gb, not so much. Of course, Android has also improved quite a bit since the D1 days.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Kid Cassidy:
LOL...Fatal is an understatement! Especially running Gingerbread...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
Most of us dont reboot. I go about 500 hours of uptime on average and the phone is just as solid. No worries.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sliderocket22:
I rarely if ever reboot my Nexus, I only did initially when I had to add the AT&T HSPA+ APN, definitely a smooth and speedy experience.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nwmiller:
It wouldn't hurt it to reboot... IMO. I haven't reboot mine in a few days now and see no problems. I do occasionally pull up the multitask menu and swipe out the apps that I know I won't be using anytime soon. Maybe there is a better way to do that... but either way... rock solid without reboots. I came form an OG droid to a Gnex as well (what a difference that was).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lilirose:
I've gone up to two weeks without rebooting with no lag. I finally rebooted when the keyboard stopped working. Before that, no lag, no problems at all, and the keyboard was fine again.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androyx96:
I'm running Windows Phone Mango 7.5 (7.10.8107.79) on my HTC HD7 and now I'm fully Interop Unlocked. My firmware is 2250.21.51004.401 and I received an update available (firmware 2250.21.51101.401 from HTC). I read this firmware update does not break Interop Unlock, but makes less privileges to some apps (I don't know which). My question is ONLY if I can still explore (and edit/copy) my system files using Windows Phone Device Manager (last release) or not. Please I need an answer! (Did someone try to explore files with this firmware revision?)

Thanks
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strollaco:
Can you copy any type of file with Windows Phone Device Manager? For example it copy pdf or zips files from phone to PC.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androyx96:
Exactly, Now I can copy whatever file I want to copy from and to the phone. So you answer..? After this update, can I still do it?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinister1:
Don't update to any new HTC firmware updates, it will disable your interop unlock. Ignore it at all costs.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
@sinister1: This is incorrect. It will disble many (pretty much all) of your apps that use interop-unlock (although *.*.51004.* has already crippled most of them), but it does not impact interop-unlock itself.

PLEASE do not mix what interop-unlock is with what apps that require it can do.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androyx96:
Yes, you're right. But can you answer my question? :(
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinister1:
Okay, if you guys are brave enough to take that chance then go for it and upgrade then.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
I'm not sure what system files you're asking about, to be honest... it's possible to read the \Windows folder (and that won't change) but it's not (on my system) possible to write to it using WPDM.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androyx96:
With "sytem files" I mean all the files I can't "normally" access (Windows folder, "Applications" folder). With new firmware can I still do it?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
TouchXperience is not, at least on my (interop-unlocked) HD7, even a ID_CAP_INTEROPSERVICES app. It's not using the firmware drivers, just Microsoft's APIs. A firmware update is extremely unlikely to modify anything that TX or WPDM can do.

That said, if you specify a specific thing that you're trying to do, and ask if it will still work, I'd be able to give you a more concrete answer.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androyx96:
Yes, the specific thing I'm trying to do is: Copy, Edit and Delete files and folders with Windows Phone Device Manager ("Applications" folder and Windows folder).
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
It shouldn't *ever* have been possible to delete files from \Windows using the Mango version of WPDM... at least, it's only ever been read-only for me. Are you using the public version?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androyx96:
Sorry.. I mean delete files ONLY from Applications folder.. (with the App ID code).. So can I still do it after the update?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
Oh yeah, sure (for sideloaded apps only, I assume you mean). That's a standard feature of the OS, intended to allow developers to modify the storage of their apps for testing purposes. You can use other tools, including one of Microsoft's own downloads, for that purpose.

I don't consider those "system" files at all though; they're data files installed by the user. If you can actually directly change the system files in any way using WPDM, that would be news.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androyx96:
Thanks a lot! So you answered my question! I update my HTC ASAP!! Thanks!

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] 95Z28:
You have to flash one of the 2 alternate packages. The fully stock one is just that and doesn't include a cwm kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lumin30:
As far as ODIN not recognizing your phone - go to this thread - and use the program to list and uninstall all Samsung and Android drivers listed. People have said after using Heimdall, ODIN will not recognize their phone. After uninstalling all the drivers, use kies mini to reinstall your drivers and see if ODIN will recognize your phone.

phordych05 - just a thought and suggestion. Instead of starting a new thread for every problem flashing you are having... use one of the other three or four threads you have started to ask the questions. We will still help you in those threads with your problems and will have less clutter for others to try and find answers.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
I found, heimdall and odin don't work together on the same USB port. I have one port setup for heimdall and another for odin. Try setting up a different port for odin. Once setup, odin any gb kernel with voodoo, and you should be good to go.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] tablador:
WARNING: This guide involves modifying your phone's boot loader and may brick your phone if done incorrectly. It is most likely to soft brick your phone if something goes wrong, meaning it should be recoverable.

NOTE: This guide instructs how to replace the boot graphic in the boot loader but does not modify the kernel graphic. Doing this requires compiling the kernel.

Prerequisites

:

Heimdall or Odin, with appropriate drivers. (The guide is for Heimdall)

A replacement.jpg graphic that is not greater than 68,849 bytes. The file should be 480x800.

A copy of param.lfs for your phone. This file is included in the Heimdall one-click packages, and probably other places.

Running Gingerbread bootloaders.

Steps

:

Open both replacement.jpg and param.lfs in a hex editor.

Go to offset 532480 in param.lfs. At this location, there should be a JPG beginning of file (BOF) marker FF D8.

Verify that offset 601327 contains the JPG end of file (EOF) marker, FF D9. There are other JPG BOF and EOF markers between these two offsets because this JPG file contains embedded thumbnails for some stupid reason. :p

Go back to offset 532480. Use your hex editor to paste the contents of replacement.jpg into param.lfs at offset 532480 in overwrite mode. Use of overwrite mode will ensure that the file does not change size and other offsets are not affected. Use of a replacement.jpg less than 68,849 bytes ensures that other data within param.lfs is not overwritten.

Save new file as param2.lfs. Verify it is the same size as param.lfs

Heimdall

:

Ensure that Heimdall, the Heimdall front-end, and appropriate drivers are installed.

Connect your phone via USB and start the Heimdall front-end.

Under the Utilities tab, click Save As and save your PIT as device.pit.

Click Download.

Under Flash tab, in the PIT subwindow, click Browse and select device.pit.

Click Add in the Partitions (Files) subwindow, and select PARAM from the Partition Details subwindow. NOTE: if you do not select the PARAM partition, there is potential to hard brick your device when you flash.

Click Browse in the File subwindow, and select your modified param2.lfs. NOTE: If your param2.lfs is corrupted, or if the flash otherwise fails, your device will be soft bricked and your device will be in download mode (although it will not have the familiar yellow screen). Attempt to reflash the PARAM partition with param.lfs.

Verify that PARAM is selected in the Partition Details subwindow. Click Start to flash param2.lfs with Heimdall to the PARAM partition.

These are some handy utility functions I wrote in Python.

This script finds most of the JPG files in param.lfs. It will choke on JPG files with embedded images.

import re

jpg = re.compile(b'\xff\xd8.*?\xff\xd9', re.DOTALL);
data = open('param.lfs','rb').read()
jpgs = re.findall(jpg, data)

for i,image in enumerate(jpgs):
open( str(i)+'.jpg', 'wb' ).write(image)

This lists all the JPG BOF and EOF file markers. Helps for spotting images with embedded thumbnails.

import re
import binascii

jpg = re.compile(b'\xff[\xd8\xd9]', re.DOTALL);
data = open('param.lfs','rb').read()
markers = re.findall(jpg, data)

for i, m in enumerate(markers):
print "%i: %s" % (i, binascii.hexlify(m))
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] tablador:
An update to this post. I have written a script which is run on your desktop with a Python installation that perofrms the modification of the param.lfs binary. Attached to this post is a package containing (1) logoreplace.py, (2) param.lfs [from GB bootloader], (3) Sgs4g.pit [also from GB bootloader].

Also, I have attached a param_acid.lfs with the Team Acid logo. This will go well with your team acid kernels.

(1) ./logoreplace.py logo.jpg param.lfs

(2) adb reboot download

(3) Run heimdall-frontend

(4) Click "Flash" tab.

(5) Browse to Sgs4g.pit. Add.

(6) Select PARAM partition.

(7) Browse to param_acid.lfs

(8) Click "Start" to flash.

Here is the code:

#!/usr/bin/env python
import sys,os

if __name__ == "__main__":
if len(sys.argv) != 3:
print "Usage: %s <logo.jpg> <param.lfs>" % (sys.argv[0],)
else:
image = open(sys.argv[1],'rb').read()
fw = open(sys.argv[2],'rb+')
if len(image) <= 68849:
fw.seek(532480)
fw.write(image)
else:
print "Image file is too long. Must be <= 68849 bytes."
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
@tablador How do I use the script that performs the modification of the param.lfs binary (logoreplace.zip)?

I tired running the logoreplace.py after inserting my replacement.jpg in the directory on my phone and got:

/sdcard/logoreplace.py
import: not found
/sdcard/logoreplace.py 5:syntax error word unexpected (expecting ")")

I used both methods listed in the OP as well with no luck (Did not find the offsets mentioned in the first method and was a little lost on what to copy from the replacement.jpg).

I did read both OPs that you linked to in the credits.

I using the alternate method, I received an error when trying to copy replacement.jpg (In both ADB and Terminal):

cp: can't create '/mnt/.lfs/logo_T759.jpg': file exists

I am using vb final, and bh's rc1.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] tablador:
Are you running the script on your phone? The script runs on your desktop via Python. Sorry if that wasn't clear. Once you create the file, you flash it using Heimdall.

Also, I removed the alternate method information. As I noted, that method was untried and untested on this phone, and from what I can tell after trying it, does not seem to work. My best guess is that phone's bootloader has the offset of that information stored directly (e.g. bypasses the filesystem) so renaming the file does not work. OP all revised to reflect this.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
Yes, I ran it in python. But it didn't change anything. I also renamed my image (replacement.jpg) to logo.jpg.

I added a raw_input() to see if I could see an error or something to indicate any kind of activity.

This is the output I got:

Usage: C:\Users\mydirectory\desktop\logoreplace\logoreplace.py <logo.jpg> <param.lfs>

Which is what you have set to print. Otherwise, there are no errors. I have my logo.jpg in the same directory as the logoreplace.py. What can I possibly be doing wrong?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] tablador:
How exactly are you running the script? And what OS?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
Windows 7 (32)

I have double clicked on it, and tried running it manually using python.exe terminal and no errors. Am I suppose to copy my logo.jpg to /mtn/.lfs?

Would it be easier to just send you my logo and you could hook it up? lol...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] tablador:
How exactly are you running the script? If you don't tell me, I can't figure out what the problem is. Are you typing something into the commandline in windows? If so, what?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
I have tried typing the code you wrote in a python terminal for windows.

I have tried just running it by double clicking on it.

I just tried it in portable ubuntu by double clicking on it, but cannot get it to run (only open in text editor). I also changed it to open with python and I Usage: /home/pubunto/Desktop/logoreplace/logoreplace.py <logo.jpg> <param.lfs>.

I would think I would need to add my logo.jpg to .mnt/.lfs so it knew what image to look for.

I just tried running the logoreplace.py via pubuntu terminal. Here is the output:

root@pubuntu:/home/pubuntu/Desktop/logoreplace# ./logoreplace.py <logo.jpg> param.lfs
bash: ./logoreplace.py: Permission denied
root@pubuntu:/home/pubuntu/Desktop/logoreplace#
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] tablador:
This is what you need to type:

./logoreplace.py logo.jpg param.lfs
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thomas.raines:
Yep. Just figured that out right after I sent the output. But now it change the param.lfs icon from a text icon to an blank icon with "usage" on the top. I flahsed it with heimdall which said heimdall crashed and got a oddly colorful strip on the top of the screen and now the phone is soft bricked... lol... I checked the size of my jpeg and see that it is 3 bytes over the allocated size...lol... Going to shrink it and try again... Will keep you posted...

EDIT

I got it to work! YAY!

Thanks for your help man!

The only thing, it displays before the normal boot splash logo (logo_vibrantplus.jpg). Is there a way to either replace logo_vibrantplus.jpg, or make it display after the default boot splash?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] tablador:
That image is in the kernel. You would have to do your own compile. I know how to do it but it involves setting up a toolchain. I will make a guide when I have time...

Also, it is interesting that the script didn't give you an error when the filesize was bigger than it should have been. I will check that out.
