How hard is those to install? Any pros or cons? Like grip for example? I am thinking to buy one because they look great! Thanks.

Very easy to install! Grip increased a lot and I think it looks very good :)

Is there any cons? How does the analog part work now? For example, is there too much grip on it? Thanks very much for your response.

I got my Xperia Play snap on hard case off of Amazon for literally $3.75 (that included free shipping.) I always say you get what you pay for, so I expected it to be total crap, but surprisingly it has really kept my phone from getting scratched and scuffed going on four months now.

Hi.

I got a simple question for you all here.

I don't seem to find a method to upload a picture to my friends walls. There is only an option to upload images to my own wall. But how do I send it to someone others wall?

Thanks in advance,

Pemell
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jensveraa:
Post fb picture on wall

I also miss this feature. I've been searching for it a long time now and it seems it is currently not possible.

I tried going to the official facebook page and even over there it's not possible. (It is, but you cannot browse for the file)

I am now going to try it by going to the mobile site of facebook and the touch.facebook.com site. I'll let you know it it's possible over there but I wouldn't count on it.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pemell:
I tried it to. The only way I found possible was to send the photo to my macbook and upload it there.

It wasn't possible through the phone at all. Bugger.

Though please keep me posted if I'm missing something.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
It looks like it's not even possible to do this using the official Facebook app. Lame.

As for using the browser, it's actually a limitation of the permissions system. The m.* and touch.* sites aren't going to add any more permissions! Mobile IE actually runs in the same kind of sandbox as normal apps, meaning essentially no access to the filesystem. However, it *could* use a PhotoChooserTask (or similar) if Microsoft had bothered to implement that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ryfiphone:
I need confirmation before I spend time trying to exchange my phone that people have Notes that do not show major "black crush" on the photo below. I also included examples for those unfamiliar with the terms. I am prepared to have Best Buy open every single one in an attempt to find one without the issue, but the extremely low amount of people who state they are not experiencing the issue makes me wonder if maybe their eyes are not sensitive to it, or they are not testing in low light/dark room conditions.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ryfiphone:
The first picture of black with clouds is a test image for you to see if it's occuring on your device. The second two images are examples of it occuring for people who are unfamiliar with black crush/clipping; so yes the second two images will look terrible on all screens. The first image looks normal/great on my infuse but on the Note has terrible black crush.

Dear All,

I'm in a critical situation,My device is totally stopped working when I have tried to flash a custom ROM (I9100GJPKH8_i9100GDZKH5) to my Samsung Galaxy S2 I9100G but the process failed and can't go further even I'm not able to restart my device the only option to restart is to remove the battery and once i do that i got message telling me that "software update fail" and it won't allow me to go to ODIN menu.

I have searched the net for the original ROM for my device model but with no luck ( Original ROM is: I9100gzcki1_i9100gozhki1_chn)

I seek your help in order to get my device back to work.

I don't think u can get a USB Jig fast. U need to buy it from eBay. Between Wer u from?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
OK. If you can get into download mode (turn phone off. Then hold down the home button & the volume down button. Keep holding these down then hold down the power button), go to Sammobile & download a I9100G stock rom & flash this in Odin following whatever instructions Sammobile have for flashing stock roms downloaded from there.

If you can't get into download mode there's a slim chance a jig might get you into download mode.

There's a thread over in the General section where people have offered to let other people use their jigs. You might want to have a look at that thread & see if there's someone close to you who might be able to help you out rather than you buying a jig on eBay & waiting for it to turn up in the mail.

If you tried to flash a custom rom ANYTHING other than Juffo rom based on DZJk2 for Gingerbread on a I9100G using odin and you cannot get into download mode... you probably soft bricked your phone.

Buy a USB-jig (basically a microUSB connected to a resistor, there are multiple videos on Youtube you can make one urself or order it online)

Insert the USB-jig into the phone while its powered off, and you should be able to get into download mode automatically.

Go find the original Stock rom and flash it back and look up how to properly backup/and root your device + using custom rom.

There are not many I9100G roms out there, theres the Juffo Rom and the Dark rom for "ICS experience" if i am correct, someone can correct me on this.

** if a USB jig does not turn your phone on or boot into download mode... and your phone is powered off... you hard bricked the phone, and should go see a JTAG service to unbrick your phone.

[HTC Sensation] matt95:
yeah :) i recommend it too! learn some skill and then go with the harder part ;)
[HTC Sensation] cwibel:
As i said before, i would recommend You to flash a GB ROM version to begin with. Flashing ROM is very easy.

Here are the steps:

Place the ROM on SD card

Place a Wipe script on SD card

Boot in recovery mode

select install zip from sdcard

Select "choose zip from sdcard" and browse to the location of Wipe script (DON'T CHOOSE REBOOT!!!)

select "choose zip from sdcard" and browse to the ROM

After flashing is complete, reboot the device.

Good luck:)
[HTC Sensation] jiggaman508:
Honestly.....read, read, and then read some more. Before I ever rooted for the first time on my trusty og Droid, I read information for about a week. You shouldn't flash anything until you feel comfortable doing so. If this comes off rude I'm sorry, it's not my intention, just some friendly advice. Good luck and happy flashing.

Thanks to all,very helpful.Feel much better now and YES I am ready to flash.Hope I will have beginers luck.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NeoCream:
Hey there

I just installed Go Contacts and was wondering if the semcphone app could be replaced with the Go Contacts one (it has phone capabilities).

Unfortunately, I cannot set the Go Contacts as default app to handle in-incomming calls. Freezing the stock phone app results in "no signal".

I guess the semc-phone app is heavy integrated into the phone... anyone got a 3rd party phone app to work as default phone app (that can handle in-comming calls, too)?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rashid.fairus:
it cant be replace since it connected in framework(very sensitive file),like using cm7 or miui stock app in stock rom,it wont work unless someone able to port it(not an easy work),but you can still using 3rd party app alongside the stock..

Do you mean while in Silent Mode? Or with Notification Sound?

I know that in these early ICS ROMs there is a bug that will not allow the vibration and ring/ notification to happen at the same time.

Team Rocket ICS has the same issue, I believe.

If you have bugs like this to report, you should add them to the DEV thread so the developer can work on it. Chances are you are not the only one with the issue, and there may be a workaround in the DEV thread.

Can't dual boot only way is to flash to and from nandroid backups.

Flash works on rooted custom roms, goto apps section to download.

Best to use 10.2 it is the least laggy.

I found Flash 10.2, and it works, thanks! But the wildfire is having a hard time, i'm using hense mod rom and have "No Frills Cpu" installed, i set max CPU to 806Mhz (which is max possible) but that didn't make the flash video playing any better... Is there something more i can do?

Also replace my actual 11.x on Xperia Play to make it smoother? Actually it's already quite smooth i think, but why not making it more...And about dual boot, is that HTC? I mean, i read people reporting dual booting on other devices, like Xperia Play, so why not my Wildfire S..?
[HTC Wildfire S] MrGuyFawkes:
I think the flash problem have something to do with the chipset of the WFS to do (Qualcomm MSM7227).

And if that's the case, it's not much you can do about it :(

There's just not enough space on the system Rom partition to hold 2 os's.

Hi, i need help with changing statusbar background image.

I pulled SystemUI.apk, decompiled, changed images

\SystemUI\res\drawable-hdpi\status_bar_background.9.png

and

\SystemUI\res\drawable-hdpi\statusbar_background.9.png

but it wont let me compile it again, it gives some errors...am i doing this right?
[Android Themes] Waddle:
The images are a .9 type. That means there is a black border around the images which you can't mess with. You need to get the original pictures, and do it again, but without touching the borders. So in gimp, that means you should use colorize, or colorfy.
[Android Themes] kristjanp:
Didn't quite understand that, can anyone do it for me?

I added the SystemUI file and the statusbar file.

Thanks:)
[Android Themes] SpaceCaker:
use 7-zip for it:)

wil also work and never gives errors ;)
[Android Themes] kcls:
I have also wondered about this. If I changed one of those statusbars in a theme that was a .9 png to a standard screen width statusbar image, and renamed the png to statusbar_background.png in the drawable folder and in the XML, would that work? Or would I need to make other changes?

[Android Themes] kristjanp:
So someone can do it for me :D ?
[Android Themes] bombadier:
Didnt work will try again
[Android Themes] VegasEvo4G:
No, I'm 99% sure that won't work. I say that because I've modified images and in renaming, I accidentally deleted the ".9" leaving just ".png". My tweaked image did not show up and instead, it still displayed the stock.9.png.

I'm gonna assume that you know how to modify .9's correctly. If not, here is a new tutorial I just saw without even searching. There are several others out there both here and on you tube. I could help as well if need be.

As long as you know how to modify and recompile .9.png's, here is a nice little shortcut for modding any system apk as the OP originally inquired about. Start by decompiling your apk. Modify whatever .9's you want and use one of the MANY tools (one is linked in the tutorial above) to recompile each individual .9.png. Once all of your .9.png's are recompiled, open the COMPILED apk you are modding using 7zip as someone mentioned above. (Left click, go to 7zip, open archive) Then navigate to res/drawable-hdpi/ and just drag your new, modified images in to the folder overwriting the old ones. Close the 7zip window and you are all done. Pretty simple. MAKE A BACK UP (just in case) and then adb push it to your system folder or use root explorer to copy and paste it.

I'd love to go into more detail, but I gotta run. I hope this helps a little. Trust me, I am no computer guy. A year ago, I didn't even know what "root" meant. I've learned everything from reading these forums and having some questions answered by other helpful users. Good luck
[Android Themes] Curiousn00b:
I usually just change the Status Bar backdrop in the Mdpi folder, then sign it.
[Android Themes] kcls:
Problem is, some statusbars can't use a .9, as they aren't a solid color the whole way through. Excellent writeup by the guy a couple posts above me by the way. But I just wonder what the best way to change the statusbar background from a .9 to a full 320xWhatever (for mdpi) png is. Can it be done? Am I being clear? Because sometimes I don't make much sense :)

Tapatalkin it from my IHO CM7.2'd, MIUI Themed Optimus V
[Android Themes] VegasEvo4G:
I certainly can't speak for every rom or every phone, (and maybe this isn't exactly what you are referring to) but this is an old statusbar I made for a MIUI theme that worked just fine as a .9. If turned horizontal, the middle stayed the same size and both of the solid colored sides would stretch. Actually, the sides are a black to grey gradient.
[Android Themes] shanman-2:
Try this....

Draw9patch is the tool used for creating .9 images, it is included in the android sdk.

1 .Navigate to the tools folder at the dos prompt and type Draw9patch.

2 .Drag and drop the image to be edited into the window that opens up when you hit return.

3. Press press shift and select one pixel at two corners of the image (diagonally opposite)

Then simply save 9 patch image from file menu.

Make sure you name it as-- yourfilename.9.png

It works for me anyway :)
[Android Themes] kcls:
So with this tool, you can take a full blown statusbar, say the one a few posts above, or one with gradients and such, and make it into a .9? I wish I'd known about that earlier!
