Sorry

To anyone who downloaded Cache-Dalvik-Wipe-Photon.zip I had up earlier, please delete and download updated one (at same post). I got my projects crossed and used the wrong updater-script, resulting in a status6 error...LOL

Updated one is posted and working :)

Guess I need to make sure I test everything I put out there before posting...LOL
[Motorola Photon 4G] rendut:
:( i can't flash a black&cyan themes error 0

n then i can't boot system.. :(
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
The single file I made works...and has all the working apks.

The individual ones dont work with photon. The syntax in the update script isn't right for the photon. Same with the binary. System error 0 is wrong binary used...

You can unzip them individually, put them in /system/app, set permissions and reboot.
[Motorola Photon 4G] rendut:
and the setting.uot replace to ..?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Which app are you looking to install?

When you unzip the cwm flashable zip, look at the folders listed...whatever folder the file came from, that file must go into the same folder on your phone.

There were a few I didn't mess with, as I figured this was not made for our phone (Photon) and was worried about how it might work on it.

App widget picker

Alright guys, I got another one for ya :)

Tested and working on CM9. I simply installed like a regular APK and checked box to set as default, then into recovery and cleared cache / dalvik cache / fix permissions, then reboot system. DO NOT RENAME THE APK LIKE THE INSTRUCTIONS SAY IN LINK, IT WILL NOT WORK IF YOU DO THAT.

I had posted before an ICS themed widget picker, now I have found something even cooler... A An ICS themed / Honeycomb styled widget picker. Checkout the screenshots attached and follow the link below

Happy modding :)

[Motorola Photon 4G] Moguledyouth:
Has anyone found the Calendar.apk that has the month view as a widget like in the black and cyan screenshots? I have tried a fair amount but half the apks don't have descriptions or screenshots...

EDIT: I have tried the Photon Inverted Large CWM zip, as well as the only download I could find for calendar from black and cyan thread, as well as one that was just floating around. I also tried the first Calendar.zip from Black and Cyan but could not get it installed at all...

I guess my question is, does anyone have that month view widget that is in the calendar screenshot from black and cyan?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Which ones have you tried? It's tough to point you in a direction without knowing which ones you installed. I'm not sure if the one in the large .zip with all the inverted apks has a widget like you're looking for....I'm on spleef's MIUI build right now and am still getting used to it, so I haven't tried modding too much...
[Motorola Photon 4G] ZeroManArmy:
Still having problems with it and that app is not here at all now...

---------- Post added at 12:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:13 PM ----------

He is looking for the Calender widget that is on the screen shots. I was hoping to find one as well...
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
This has themed Widget

Calendar.apk

Push into /system/app, set permissions rw r r and reboot
[Motorola Photon 4G] ZeroManArmy:
Does that update the default widget from CM9?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
I only tested it on MIUI...not sure how CM9 will handle it...
[Motorola Photon 4G] That_Guy0505:
Hey guys, just wanted to make a quick post on how to get Th3Bill's themed apps to work on 0.4.0 Here is what I did (coming from 0.3.3):

Reboot into recovery (I used joker's custom recovery located Here)

Then wipe cache/dalvik using Th3Bill's cache/dalvik .zip located Here

Then flash 0.4.0 and reboot *Do not flash Gapps yet!*

Reboot back into recovery and use the cache/dalvik .zip again

Flash Th3Bill's themed apps .zip located Here and reboot

Boot back into recovery (yes, again)

and flash joker's gapps v11 located Here

reboot and enjoy!

Use this method for version(s) 0.4.0 to 7.0.0

Boot into recovery and flash latest version located Here (No wiping necessary)

Then flash gapps v12 located Here and reboot

Boot back into recovery and flash Th3Bill's themed apps .zip located Here and reboot

Boot back into recovery, flash gapps v12, reboot, and enjoy!

If anyone has any issues with this process, feel free to send me a pm.

If this helps, please hit the thanks button because it makes me look :cool:
[Motorola Photon 4G] ZeroManArmy:
Ive noticed, with Jokers Custom Recovery that a lot of flashable zips not made specificly for his, they wont flash.
[Motorola Photon 4G] FernBch:
Unless joker has changed something you can use Romracers custom CWM, 5.2.0.7-photon3. I don't have the link handy, but it can easily be found here at XDA.:)

I'm a MoPho-er
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
It's not joker's CWM...least I don't think it is. It's the syntax our phone requires to run the .zip. Each manufacturer has its way of implementing these scripts...they use similar wording, but different "style". If you want to see how easy they are (it's really simple once you really look at a few .zips). Good places to look

1) Unzip a .zip I have posted and look at the updater-script in /META-INF/com/google/android This will give you a good idea of how to set it up. Each line has an action followed by (plus whatever you want cwm to do) followed immediately by ; No spaces between lines.

2) THIS SITE will give you the commands (actions) as well as what information you need to follow them with.

Hope this helps...any questions, I will try to help...I know some things...but please understand if it's beyond my abilities :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] Moguledyouth:
Unfortunately this is NOT what we are looking for, in the screen shots of "Black and Cyan" there is a Month grid calendar widget. That is the Calendar.apk we are all searching for.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Calendar.apk

This is the apk from the file in that link. It's from the V2 zip. If it's not the right one, try sending a message to Hello00 from this post

it's more than likely going off of the stock based widget is well. We may have to find an external ice cream sandwich themed widget to use.

[Motorola Photon 4G] MobileAllStar:
Anyone know if its possible to install a "text reflow" option on cm9 like the ones from previous cm versions... Always loved how text and pages would adjust based on pinching to zoom in and out...
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
I just realized that those apks weren't developed for the Photon...they're from some other phone. You're probably right that the widget is being based off the stock widget for that phone...
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
you mean in browsers? I think QuickICS does...but in the paid version. Stock doesn't as far as I have seen..
[Motorola Photon 4G] ZeroManArmy:
Have we got a fix for 0.3.3 yet?
[Motorola Photon 4G] bhake:
There is another one very similar to Quick ICS Browser, called ICS Browser + that has text reflow built in (under advanced settings) and its a free app.

App to get to launch *#*#info#*#*

Dug this out of a MIUI rom, I don't remember which one cuz i have like 5 MIUI roms from different devices unzipped, looking for goodies that work on CM9.

It's an app that goes directly to the phone info screen that we use to change the network status from let's say CDMA AUTO to GSM / CDMA AUTO.

No more need to open up dialer and dial *#*#4636#*#*

In the first screenshot, you can see the app icon for phone info and the second one is what it opens up to when you open the app. Enjoy :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] NewMan4Life2010:
This is a free app on The Google Play Market (https://play.google.com/store/apps/...251bGwsMSwxLDEsIm15Yy5waG9uZS5QaG9uZUluZm8iXQ).

Nice find! Thanks!
[Motorola Photon 4G] illidan8984:
I have followed all steps to install CM9 0.3.3 but android.phone.com force close still occurred. Is there any other way?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
You followed the steps in the post on the first page? I know that there are different directions on the main cm9 thread. The directions on here...if you follow them to a T, should get you a working version of 0.3.3...
[Motorola Photon 4G] illidan8984:
I followed these steps:

If you run into issues with 0.3.3 not booting up after doing a fresh install, do the following:

1) Format /System, /Data, and /Cache (can use the Wipe-All-Photon.zip in POST 6 for this)

2) Flash 0.3.1 from above link and Gapps

3) Reboot and allow phone to come to main screen but do not sign in, reboot back into recovery

4) Wipe /Cache and Dalvik (can use Wipe-Cache-Dalvik-Photon.zip in POST 8 for this)

5) Flash 0.3.(2, 3 +++)

6) Fix permissions

7) Reboot...should work now
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Try rebooting into recovery, doing wipe-cache-dalvik.zip and fix permissions again. If it doesn't work, need to start at beginning again. This for a Photon?
[Motorola Photon 4G] bullfrog527:
just wanted to say that this worked for me!

Thanks alot guys for taking the time to find all of these goodies to make our photons/electrifies AWESOME!
[Motorola Photon 4G] illidan8984:
Thanks, i did it. I think I got force close because I did not format emmc. After factory reset and erase emmc, everything is good.

Not perfect but this third party app will you recording videos at last. 720 works but is mildly laggy, lower res is great though. App name is "videocam illusion" free in google play store or a paid version.

For CM9 By Joker

I directly flashed 0.3.3 (not from 0.3.1) first then flashed 0.4.1.

Everything works like a charm even GSM.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
0.4.1 doesn't require a "base" to flash over. 0.3.3 had the issue where it would not boot on its own, and required 0.3.1 first.
[Motorola Photon 4G] sunha1007:
When I flashed 0.4.1 without "base" gsm didn't work.

So I re-flashed 0.4.1 over 0.3.3 (after flashing 0.3.3 my phone booted without any problems)
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Interesting...I haven't used 0.4.1 (switched to MIUI during 0.3.3). Good to hear that GSM is working.

Editing phone banner

Want to change your phone's service banner from "Sprint" or whatever your rom has? Here's how to. There are a LOT of how-to's out there that will cause bootloops and other errors. This has worked 100% for me

Grab the following programs:

Editra-great xml editor...works perfect, and is lightweight

ICS_Apktool-decompile, recompile

An Archive manager (7zip, or other)

1) Set up Editra by clicking on .exe

2) Unzip ICS_APKtool into a folder for itself. Inside that folder make folders (start) (compiled) and (decompiled)

3) Extract your framework-res.apk from your rom zip and move it to the (start) folder

4) Open ICS_apktool by double clicking on the icon ICS APKtool.exe

5) Click browse next to Apk file in decompile. Find your framework-res.apk file in the (start folder) and hit ok

6) Choose the (decompiled) folder as your destination folder, and hit decompile

7) Go into your (decompiled) folder, then navigate to /res/xml and double click eri.xml. Editra shoud open up with your eri.xml in it. Edit the line that you normally see on your phone (change ONLY the name...Sprint, etc) to whatever name you would like in your banner. Save the file and close Editra

8) When done editing, go back to ICSAPKTool and choose the (decompiled) folder for source folder and (compiled) for your destination.

9) Press compile. DO NOT USE THIS FILE...YOU'LL BE FORCED INTO A BOOTLOOP(sorry about caps lock..but it's VERY important)

10) Go into the (compiled) folder and open your framework-res.apk in an archive program. Extract your eri.xml you edited. Copy this to your (start) folder and close the archive program.

11) Go to the (start) folder and open your original framework-res.apk in your archive program. Replace the eri.xml in the apk with the one you edited. and close the archive program.

12) Open your rom .zip in the archive manager, and copy the newly edited framework-res.apk from your (start) folder into your rom in the framework folder.

13) You're done!

You can also use this to edit other valuable info in your system...storage, battery stats, etc.

Cheers!:)

[Motorola Photon 4G] moonzbabysh:
My bad guys, I found a newer, easier Phone apk that actually has the "Option" to disable the notifications from its settings menu. I've attached it below. Enjoy. :)

Backup your current Phone.apk or rename it with '.bak' then just move this one to system/app and match the permissions to the original and change owner to root/root and reboot.

NOT WORKING ON MIUI STILL. I HAVEN'T GIVEN UP ON YOU GUYS THOUGH, IM STILL LOOKING :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] ChadH42:
I found this while poking around XDA and it works on 4.5.1. The only issue is that the display gets a little funky. Functionally it does it all including clearing the status bar notification.

Use the Sprint VVM download and install from recovery.

[Motorola Photon 4G] moonzbabysh:
That's the Sprint Visual voicemail that I posted a while back on this thread and also in the Apps section. Although, now with Google Voicemail integration (which is very well done, and simple) right into our call log list in the phone app, I have completely stopped using Sprints vvm.

I noticed two issues while installing V4 2.4.20 in my MoPho.

1. The four button key backlight wont lit properly. I need to go to Brightness and o adjust or click Automatic Brightness for lighting up. Any fixes ?

2. I tried to Sync the Facebook Contacts and Orkut, LinkedIn and all other contacts. But its not getting synced into my Phonebook contacts or not even showing there. Any fixes ?
[Motorola Photon 4G] hellot1M:
1. That is normal. Even on stock unrooted out of the box. Same as every other phone I have used with back lit touch keys. Its odd and I freaked out at first too and was very aggravated but noticed soon after that every other phone I was using with the same style of touch keys did the same thing.

2. That is miui. Though I have never used miui 4 to see if things have changed but miui has never been able to sync well with contacts and you can forget about saving those numbers unless you use a third party contacts app. The miui contacts app will not save new numbers to your Gmail account for transferring. (Could be different now with miui 4. Last year I tried asking someone about that and they said it was miui source and would always be like that due to legal issues or how dramatically different it was from stock)
[Motorola Photon 4G] moonzbabysh:
If you guys would like to disable the Capacitive buttons backlight altogether, you can use the LED's Hack app attached below.

[Motorola Photon 4G] xecuter2:
Any chance someone has a copy of the black mms.apk with the 160 split built in? I am back on CM9 and have to use this version (v2 I think?) but really miss the inverted colors. Someone linked to another thread with all the inverted apps but the inverted v2 mms from there is the only one that will not work for me, it just doesn't get found on phone reboot and does not show in the apps.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=22917501&postcount=7
[Motorola Photon 4G] moonzbabysh:
If you go into mms, then the settings, there is a check box that says "split counter" if you check that box, you enable 160 split.

the link for mediafire now is showing up as malware, my anti virus detected it and will not even let me download it. Not sure if its the site or the file itself
[Motorola Photon 4G] FernBch:
It's probably the way your AV is handling the link. It's mediafire, some AV companies think you're more likely to download infected software from there. See if there's a setting to allow that site (white list it).

[Motorola Photon 4G] armyranger251:
To fix mms on jokers cm9 6.1 download this mms.apk

And use root explorer to copy apk to system/app

Long press on app name and scroll down to change permissions and change them to match all the other apps
[Motorola Photon 4G] FernBch:
If you are having problems with the dialer and automated services such as voucemail (keypress echo or double input from one keypress) go into dialer settings and disable audible touch tones. Doing this is a workaround until it's fixed. This applies to all ICS builds based from CM9, too.

My MoPho's in the kitchen sink!!
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
I can assure you that it is NOT malware. I am not the type of person who would ever do something like that to someone. It's like Fernbch said....many AV programs flag file-sharing sites as being more likely to have a virus on them....

The APNS fix isnt working for me. It may be becase I deleted all three then did the new ones. Any help? On CM9 0.6.9.2

Also does working APNS mean I can download Picture Messages or is that a different issue?

I love that APK. It has the Split Messages option. The default one in CM9 doesn't anymore...

Help Badly Needed

I came from Stock Rooted,Unlocked, Flashed

I downloaded CM9 beta 0.6.9.2 from Jokerax

Got the Error " Unfortunately the process com.android.phone has stopped"

I then tried the with CWM and Cache-Dalvik-Wipe-Photon.zip but got an error about expecting 3 arg but got 4

So thinking I would do better with "kitchen sink" tried it also got the same error about com.android.phone. ..

So then I used CWM and wiped /data /cache /emmc /osh and dalvik flashed the CM9 rom twice installed gappsv12, rebooted once got the error, rebooted again no change...

As a what the hell effort I, wiped /data /cache /emmc /osh /system and dalvik

flashed 0.3.1 (cool splash) didn't login, went back to recovery ,deleted Cache and dalvick flashed 0.6.9.2, ran fix permissions rebooted, WTH it appears to be working....{Sorry I was typing while I was doing this} ... ok let me install gapps 12 and fix the APNS.... Wow can't believe that fixed it..
[Motorola Photon 4G] curtisimo:
I am also unable to download images I receive in txt messages (mms) after upgrading from 6.9.1 to 6.9.2. I have deleted and recreated the two APNs with no luck.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Chavy09:
for the jokerax you are supposed to flash one of the earlier versions first and then let it boot up then get back into recovery and flash the latest version right on top of that (meaning no wipe)
[Motorola Photon 4G] WiredAnim:
I'm having the same issue with mms. I can get it to work in GoSMS but I would rather use the stock app.

I have tried the APN changes from page 1 and that was able to get me sending mms. I then tried both mms apps from page 10 neither made a difference but the dark one looks sweet :-)

I'm going to keep digging but if anyone has any suggestions I'm all ears

CPU Editor

I found a CPU script that is working VERY well for me and thought I'd share... Sorry but I don't know how to link the forum or I would... Search XDA CPU Editor. Dev's name is smokin1337... I'm running it on Joker's 6.9.3 and its giving me an extra 4-5 hrs of battery life easy... It's a flashable zip that you then access with terminal emulator... Very simple!

Word of note... I did disable setcpu before flashing the zip to make sure there were no conflicting scripts or issues... I'd recommend doing the same!

Please have a look and let me (and everyone else know what you think)

Edit:

I have my system set up as

Core 1

Max: 1000000

Min: 216000

Core 2

Max: 1000000

Min: 216000

I also have the 2nd core force enabled and have them set to power save option and set on "Sticky Mode" to apply the setting on Boot... It's all very simple and self explanatory once you flash and open the terminal...
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Only real "Fix" is to flash 0.3.1 first, let it boot up, then flash the latest CM9 on top of it. For some reason, CM9 seems to have this issue, though the ROMs based on it (MIUI, AOKP, etc) do not seem to have the issue....not sure what is causing it.
[Motorola Photon 4G] ZeroManArmy:
I am testing this right now. Will post results soon.

Oi okay. I will test this as well. This first. I'll also upload a mirror for it.

How did things turn out with the installation and battery life?

Thanks!!
[Motorola Photon 4G] misfitdeluxe:
I flashed it to mine and it worked. I changed all the settings, applied, and closed the CPU tweak editor. Reboot into recovery, created a backup, then I tried to boot my phone up and it got stuck at the screen with the red circle and M logo on boot up. I tried taking it off the computer USB plug and plugging it into a wall socket, but all it does is warm up the battery and doesn't get past that logo. I can't even access recovery or anything.

I need my phone back. I'm expecting an important phone call. *sigh*

UPDATE: I was able to get into recovery by holding the power button and volume down whilst plugging the power in. I think maybe my battery drained right after the backup in TWRP. I've had the phone plugged in for over half hour though. Don't know why it hasn't charged enough to boot up. I'll wait another hour and report back.
