Nice mod bro :) btw interested in 2G/3G Toggle mod? ;) Unfortunately my current mod is out of bandwidth till next month so if you want to port it by yourself you'll have to wait until 1st March.. :o or go to like-p's page on XMP themes and apps and he already ported the 2G/3G Toggle to XMP :)
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] brezzz:
any chance of getting back to kill app on its own without all the other stuff?

Ty, how do you turn mega bass on?
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] bladesuk1:
i don't see why not... do you need it as an installable zip, or are you more interested in the details of the changes so that you can hack around with it yourself? i'll see if i can get something sorted out for you on this score later on today either way.

2g/3g toggle mod could be a useful addition to this so thanks for the heads-up! i'll have a look and see if i can work out how to include it - i have to admit that the smali code is a complete pita to get my head around - such a shame apktool doesn't decompile into java instead as i've worked with that for over 12 years :p i don't suppose you know of a language primer for smali code at all?
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] hansip87:
Smali is essentially a java optimized for dalvik. It's easy to understand once you get used to it :) only that all the type is included in each object mentioned instead of one include directive on top of java file. :) another differences is that variable is assigned with a v (v1, v2, etc) and parameter is with p (p0 -> usually a replacement for 'this' inside object based function or just a first parameter in a static function, p1, p2, etc)

Hiya mate

Yer a flashable zip of just the back to kill would be awesome mate if you could, thank you. I would also be interested in the 2g/3g if you can figure it out mate.

Thanks for your time buddy and hope to hear something soon.

[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] bladesuk1:
it's on once the files are installed for it, by all accounts. it's basically a tweak for better bass response from what i've been able to gather. there's more info on the thread i linked to above.

b
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] bladesuk1:
consider it done - should be attached to this post for you. for an undo, you should be able to just use the one from the first post. i've not had time to test the installer, so just let me know if you have any issues and i'll take a look later on tonight when i get back from work.

well, i've tried to keep the mods as separate as i can while i was doing them so that they could be combined. there's only a few that crossed over significantly, but the control panel mod was one of them. as it stands, i'm toying with the idea of trying to move it beneath the notifications as in landscape mode it takes up most of the available screen space, and the notifications aren't really visible. ideally, i'd do it more like miui, with the page of icons and a page for notifications, with the view defaulting to notifications if any are present. but that's just me - i really liked miui, but for some reason the touch-screen doesn't seem to respond properly on cm7/miui on the arc s. ah, well :)

Hiya mate

Just installed the zip. All files installed and rom booted. The option appears in dev settings and lets me select it with the tick, but holding back doesnt kill anything :( its a if its not even there.

thanks

sorry about that - i'll have another look at this later on today. might be as simple as me forgetting to put the correct jar file into the zip with a bit of luck :/

second attempt, then: try this instead :) just tried it on my phone, and seems to work fine for me this time. it still has the 'never' option on the display timeout in there too, as i'm a little pushed for time to pull all of those changes out, but there shouldn't be anything else left in there.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JazonX:
Guys/Devs,

Im in Sri Lanka, and my CSC package (SLK) is included in the INDIA firmware.

IS it really Important that you have your own country's CSC Installed prior to using your Galaxy Note ?

* I already Know my carrier's Data/MMS settings. I can load it myself.

* Apps like Music Hub Disappear when I switch to my own CSC.

* Google Maps and several more apps are not shown in the market when I use my own CSC.

* Does the CSC affect my Signal strength and my Call Quality ?

+ If its not really important to have your own CSC, Which CSC is the best to use ?

(Best as in All apps working, shown in market, unlocked)

Thanks !
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PorscheGuy:
Hmmm, that concerns me about not having access to certain Market apps! I just flashed LB1 Open Germany but my CSC is KOR. I was thinking of switching it to DBT to match my ROM but I didn't know it could cause Market issues. :(
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JazonX:
KOR has all the apps unlocked I guess ...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chasmodo:
CSC affects absolutely nothing on your Note (signal strength, call quality), it only affects the Market (which apps are shawn). If it is important for you to have access to local apps, then set your CSC properly. If not, who cares?

I think the best one to use is probably Open Europe, it let's you download almost everything.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JazonX:
Thank you so much chasmodo for the insight !

By Open Europe, Did you mean XEU ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JazonX:
Answering my own Question -

Open Europe or OXA Package contains..

XEU

XEF

KOR

DBT

ITV

So I guess, XEU is good.

Thanks a lot !
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indie:
I had Xeu and never got any updates. I now changed to DBT and got latest updates by flashing KK9 Rom first.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JazonX:
Thanks , But DBT is an operator specific code, Isnt it ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indie:
It for Germany and is open I believe. No operator apps are installed
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JazonX:
Thank you !

In conclusion, DBT is a good CSC code and Im using it. But still, Some apps like Google maps wont show up. so for that I use Market Enabler and configure as Germany Vodafone.

About APN, the CSC folder has an XML that holds all the APNS. You can just write them down and add them to Apns.conf xml in System/etc. So your APN's will be automatically configured.

Thank you everyone for the help !

Hi,

I have an AT&T i927. The usb doesn't work, but I can charge it.

Is it possible to update it with custom rom or official rom without usb functionality? I would like to update to Ics when available.

thankx to all.

[Samsung Captivate Glide] signo82:
The problem isn't driver or debug mode.

I think I broke the usb plug because I pull the cable with phone attached. So I'd like to know if there is a way to update wiithout usb connection.

Thank you.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Erbid:
On my previous phone, I recall using marketplace to install Rom Manager (either OTA or Wifi), then using ROM Manager to install CWM (Again OTA or Wifi). I'm pretty sure I had root already, though I do not recall for certain. I do know I was pleased and surprised to get a custom recovery that worked (Had to watch the bootloader versions, USB was very handy for that. Updating a bootloader could kill recovery, so USB would then be critical to putting the old bootloader back on the phone until a newer CWM became available)!

Once I had Clockwork Mod (CWM) installed as my recovery, most of my flashing was done without USB.

Here's a thread for the Glide and CWM

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1458153

Apply Update (or other .zip file) from SD is the key function you need. Catastrophic recovery of a bootloader may not be possible w/o USB though.

I would post this in the Sony section, but I feel this is a good talking point for all Android devices. Nice to see something outside of the Nexus devices receiving direct support. They mention specifically that they want to get developer input and are taking suggestions into consideration. I like this a whole freaking lot. How much easier would it be for finished dev Roms to be released for us all if other hardware manufacturers made things so streamlined?

This is a huge step in the right direction: direct-from-manufacturer Roms, open communication and a limited number of devices. Moto, Samsung, HTC, I hope you're paying attention. Especially you, Moto, because between you and your paramour Verizon you seem to love to maximize the pain for those who wish to bring us Android bliss.
[General Topics] j0h4n:
I think this is a realy good and smart move as this makes me aktualy concider getting a Sony. And hopefully drives manufactuers in the right direction.
[General Topics] Saythis:
Wow, I actually sort of agree with them releasing Beta ROM's to the public.. Allows the customer to maybe even have somewhat of a voice in the end product they receive I guess. Makes me sort of wish I went Sony now.

[General Topics] 4ktvs:
Sony does seem to get it more than most when it comes to OS's. I think next year they will bring the big guns. The s is a good phone, but it should have been an S4 with AT&T LTE bands. (No I am not asking for it to be sold by them, just make the world phone with LTE that works on AT&T.)

Now I wait for the SGS 3 of doom.

P.S THE NEW IPAD, thats it's name for real? Even if it was called the 2s it would have been more fiting, but to just slap new on it. Man they really must know that it's fans will buy anything.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjbadd385:
Hi all, I am going to be as thorough as I can. I am rather new, and I'm stuck trying to downgrade my MT4G to froyo (PD15IMG). I have read the tutorials, and learned enough about adb to attempt this task, but I think by doing the HTC Bootloader unlocking update last week, it may be the reason I'm stuck. I follow the instructions on the tutorial, to gain temp root, until I get to the part where I should get a "#" in the command Window when I type "adb shell" but I keep getting "$" instead, although everything seems to be going ok until I get to that point.

*Also, I put the PD15IMG.zip on the root of my sd card, and start my phone in bootloader mode, and it finds the PD15IMG.zip, and a blue progress bar appears in the top right corner of my phone for about 90 seconds, it then displays "parsing PD15IMG.zip" then stops at the hboot screen and does nothing. I just select power down, then power on my phone and nothing will have been done to my phone. I guess what I need to know is, by doing the HTC bootloader unlock update (which I did before I read that it was a bad idea), can I still downgrade and root with normal methods, or will I have to do something different?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
You can start differently. Since you've unlocked the bootloader, try to flash recovery directly, by downloading recovery image directly from Clockworkmod site, rebooting to FASTBOOT (adb reboot bootloader) and using the command "fastboot flash recovery your_just_downloaded_recovery.img".

If recovery flash doesn't work for you - download the 2.2.1 PD15IMG, unzip it, and flash the following 2 files from it:

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot erase userdata

Then reboot. You should end up on 2.2.1, which is perm-rootable using the guide (Visionary for temp-root, gfree for S-OFF, and then perm-root if you want).

Then flash the recovery and the engineering bootloader.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjbadd385:
Here is what I did, I am giving a link to pastebin as instructed, it seems to go perfectly until I try to flash the StockRom. In the meantime I will attempt what was just posted above^^^^^^^ http://pastebin.com/fYrC6tAZ
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjbadd385:
One last thing before i have to throw away my phone. I couldnt leave well enough alone. I did this "fastboot flash boot boot.img" as you stated in the post above. It was successful. I then entered this one "fastboot flash system system.img", and it failed (said the img was too big or something) so I did the "fastboot-windows reboot" command and it is now stuck on the white HTC MyTouch 4g splashscreen. Is my phone toast? My PC no longer recognizes that my phone is connected to the USB port, however I can hold the volume dwn & power button and it comes on in the hboot mode.Is there any hope?

Also, when I boot it up by vol/dwn & pwr, the Hboot screen comes up and finds the PD15IMG that is on my sd card, goes through a 1 minute or so process (a blue status bar loads in top right corner), then it just stays on the hboot. It did that before it stuck on the splash screen, but never actually wrote anything i dont beleive.

OK its letting me use FASTBOOT and here is exactly what I got when i tried to flash the 2nd file in your post above. It came from the PD15IMG.zip as you instructed:

C:\adb>fastboot flash system system.img

sending 'system' (571388 KB)... FAILED (remote: data length is too large)

finished. total time: 0.016s
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjbadd385:
Can someone please let me know if there is hope for my phone? I can communicate with it through Fastboot (on my PC) and it will boot up in hboot mode. But it WON'T go past the Tmobile/MyTouch splash screen. If I get it fixed, I promise to never touch it again until I study! I truly feel there is hope, but I think don't know enough to figure it out. I loaded the PD15IMG on my SD, and it attempts to flash it, (a blue status bar appears in top right corner and fills up in about 90 seconds), but afterwards, it still sticks on splashscreen. Is there anything I can do to fix it? Anything I can flash it with in Fastboot? Please anyone?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
You mixed 2 ways, and did it completely wrong way. And you didn't attempt to flash the recovery at all.

The first part, that went well (till ./flashgc), already prepared your phone for downgrading, and you should have recognized and understood it. You don't need anything else, no flashes from bootloader or anything. All you needed was to continue - put PD15IMG.ZIP on the SD card, reboot into bootloader, and let it downgrade.

You can still do it, so please do.

---------- Post added at 06:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:13 PM ----------

Once you end up on 2.2.1, please follow the "Ultimate rooting guide" from Development section, and flash Engineering bootloader.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjbadd385:
Thank for your response. I have tried doing the PD15IMG.zip by booting my phone in bootloader mode. It finds the PD15IMG.zip and then a blue progress bar appears in the top right corner of the phone, finishes in about 90 seconds, the a message appears that says "wrong zip file". I would be happy just to get my phone back on with the gingerbread 2.3.4 on it, and simply leave it alone until I know what Im doing. Is there a way to just flash the original s/w back on it? If so if you could tell me how I will not mess with it again until I study alot more. But flashing the PD15IMG doesnt appear to be working for me.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Download the file again, and check MD5SUM on it before you use it.

If it responds "wrong ZIP" - it's because the ZIP is corrupted. When you'll download a good ZIP, it'll work.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjbadd385:
Ok you were right, the one I had the wrong MD5SUM, but i d/l the correct one, it had the correct MD5SUM, but it still gave me the "wrong zip file error". I feel like there is hope, but I cant figure this out!! Thank you for trying, is there anything else I can do? I also tried going into recovery and doing factory reset/ data wipe etc...but it continues to get stuck on the splash screen....
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
How did you copy the correct one to the phone's SD card, and where did you put it? You either didn't copy it to your SD card, or named it wrong, or put it in wrong location, not overwriting the older file.

In any case, if flashing PD15IMG fails for you:

Download CWM recovery from here:

http://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-glacier.img

Boot to bootloader.

Enter FASTBOOT.

Execute:

fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-glacier.img

Boot to recovery. You should have Clockworkmod.

Download a stock rooted 2.2.1 ROM from Development section.

Flash it in Clockworkmod recovery.

Extract boot.img from this ROM.

Flash it in fastboot, using "fastboot flash boot boot.img".

Boot into the ROM.

Proceed with gfree.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjbadd385:
OK!! I got it fixed and it all makes sense to me now! I flashed the 2.2.1 boot.img to my phone, when it still had the 2.3.4 on it. It was as simple as that. I hadnt flashed the downgrade on it when I flashed the boot.img and I guess it was a mismatch. I read your last post to extract the "boot.img" from the rom and then it clicked! Yesterday I wrote the 2.2.1 boot img. to a phone that had 2.3.4...so I found a stock 2.3.4 rom, extracted the boot.img from it a BAM! its rolling again....thank you so much....
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Yes, indeed, you flashed a mismatched, older kernel to your ROM. I was suggesting that you install custom recovery and change the ROM to match your boot.img, but the other way around also works - as long as you don't need to root your phone, that is.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjbadd385:
Well I will soon attempt it again, however I think I need to read a little more so I can understand the concept of what I am doing. I learned a ton by making that mistake. But as soo as I got it fixed, I couldnt resist, I used revovery and flashed [ROM]:: ProjectMIUI 2.2.17 [R6]- UPDATED 2/21/12 - [Stable + Smooth from the DEV section and I have never been happier with my phones performance! I will soon try the cyanmod, but I want to chill with this rom for a week or so. Again, I appreciate your help, I learned alot.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
As long as you don't mind flashing kernels separately using fastboot for each ROM you flash, you can go indefinitely and flash ROMs as much as you like with your current setup, not needing anything else. The only good reason for you to go for S-OFF would be to flash Engineering HBOOT, to be able to flash kernels from recovery directly, avoiding extra fastboot step.

Also, thanks for finally confirming that you can flash recovery using fastboot on HTC-Dev-unlocked device. There was one device that didn't allow it (I think Incredible S, but not sure), so it's good to know that on MT4G it works as it should.

Bumping your own stuff is super bad form if people are looking for what you have to offer they will find it

Rule #5
[Eee Pad Transformer General] aligatro2010:
You need to install tcpdump on your router and simply sniff all traffic going on wifi, wan or bridge interface. Then use wireshark to open created file and search for string keywords like "asus", "fota.asus" or "google"(some devices receive updates from google server). You'll need router with custom firmware that either has optware installed or the one that can be modified to install optware packages.

I can write in detail how I did it on my ASUS RT-N16, but many people have different routers probably.

Another way is to look into debug log and find link there. There is a program called logcat(?) on android market that let's you view it. But I haven't tested this way, so I could be wrong.
