Hi guys,

It could seem a strange answer but I have deleted all the pre-imposted sketches on s-memo and I remember they were all drawn on different backgrounds (White stripes, blank white, yellow notepad, etc.). Now when I open a new file I can only draw on yellow squared background. Does any of you know how to choose a different background? Thanks.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] btyork:
Open settings with the memo open.

Change background.

Profit.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sino8r:
Is the trey broken or actual contacts on the board itself? If it's just the contacts... you could solder it yourself. There are quite a few tear down guides and buying a soldering iron is MUCH cheaper than 75 euros lol! Maybe try another sd card to be sure? I'm sure you already tried that though...

@XDA I'll write both in italian and english because he will be more likely to understand in italian, sorry for this, but I think that if I can help him, I should try and english wouldn't be so fine... Sorry for posting in italian...

Hi you should at first try another sd, than have a look at a teardrop guide on the internet for Desire Z to see if you are able to do this, a solder isn't much more than 15-20€... Then you should find a motherboard, use ebay from international sellers... Or the problem may be resolved just with a solder without having to buy a new motherboard, you may want to post some photos so we can help you

Ciao dovresti per prima cosa provare un'altra sd, poi cercare una guida per lo smontaggio del desire z (desire z teardrop guide) e vedere se riesci a farlo, un saldatore non costerà più di 15-20 euro, poi devi trovare una scheda madre su ebay dai venditori internazionali... Magari basta il saldatore e non serve una nuova scheda madre, se posti delle foto, magari possiamo darti una mano

Hello all,... :)

This is my first Helpful thread in XDA,.. and is aimed to help all the new android Galaxy Fit Users :).. Being a newbie, i was unable to satisfactorily see a complete GUIDE about the rooting world,.. So here is my contribution :cool:

Basics :

1. What is Rooting ?

2. What are Custom ROMS ?

3. What is ODIN ?

.......Odin is a software for your PC to flash Stock ROMS and CWMs

4. What is CWM ?

.......CWM stands for ClockWorkMod Recovery, and helps you in flashing custom ROMS ! Try CWM 5 by tj_styles. U don't have to ROOT your phone for flashing CWMs

5. How to Flash STOCK ROMS ?

6. How to ROOT STOCK ROMS ?

7. How to Flash CUSTOM ROMS ?

.......This is beyond the scope of this GUIDE since each ROM has its own method of Flashing. It is mostly done with CWMs 'n some (like Creed's Rom below 1.4) are flashed via ODIN,.. get help from developers.. :)

8. Does ROOTING 'n CUSTOM ROMs Void your warranty,..?

......As long as you are not bricked... it can be considered as a "pause" to your warranty period. U can get back your warranty any time by flashing a official STOCK ROM ! :D

GOLDEN RULE :

Read, Re-Read the procedure, to prevent mistakes,...! Never experiment ROMs without full knowledge of the developer and the procedure (Unless you are a pro :p). Keep the phone charged to atleast 60% before flashing. Keep your Laptops charged while using ODIN !

"I am not responsible for you bricking the phone,.. Keep the wails for yourself" :p :D

search for apktool help. download apkt tool and follow instructions .then decode them all based on what you are trying to alter and edit or replace the .png files with or to your liking. then recompile and then sign the apk file. I'm still learning also. but this helps me to figure it out somewhat. keep in mind some things cant be changed because of obsolete m10 tools for ics

[HTC Sensation] NRGZ28:
No.. it's just because red is not a very cool looking color, for a guy with a manly gadget in his hand :)

To the OP, starting with simply unzipping an APK, looking around the drawable-hdpi folder, edit what you would like to change, and drag and drop the modded files back into the .apk file. Just remembr to stay away from the files ending in .9.png ! Then, once you get the hang of that, look into using the apktool to actually decompile the .9.png's and recompile them back.
[HTC Sensation] synergymike:

since I rooted my device and start flashing custom roms, my GPS not working probably.

sometimes when I turn it on it starts working then disconnecting - reconnecting again

sometimes it will not be able to connect at all

and sometimes it's working like charm!, I'm really confused

, I tried fix-GPS app in the market.. same nothing changed

and yes.. i tried it alot with many different roms and ofc under clear view of sky with route66 and sygic. my current rom is rooted stock la6 supertweeked.

anything you advise to do?

is it possible to flash a stock kernel and keeping root with cwm in the device?

and from where I can download that?

I'm just wondering is it possible that because of la6 is not the proper rom for my region the GPS won't work probably and how to fix that?

I dont know if any other guy here went through this hysterical problem but yeah would like to inform those who flash more often without surmounting about thinking before doing it..

Also dev's i think this problem should be rectified immediately! !!

Here's what happened with (not so)lucky me

I flashed cm9 beta 2 directly over cm7 by tj_style..(edit wiped out data and dalvik cache too) and then after installation found out that my IMEI no. was null(0000000000000000)

Tried every possible legit method to restore my IMEI back but to no avail.

Googled everything but sooner got frustated

In the end i ended up in the samsung customer care center, acting all dumb like i had no clue about my phone and then there was my phone without imei.

I told them(care center ppl) that "last time i sent a text to a friend.

The next day i checked my cellphone , there was no signal coverage."

You know pretending like i had no clue about what the hell was happening and made out stories.

The funny part was that the center people believed everything.

Finally they took in my phone and gave it back after 2 and half weeks(after constant inquiring about my cell xD) & finally i had my original IMEI restored (salvage)

.

That was about my problem.

Still can't figure it out how my IMEI got washedoff adter flashing cm9 beta 2..

(Sigh).... .. but now I'm on the safe side. ^^

So i think its serious matter about wiping IMEI.. and it should be considred under attention.

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] BlueHack:
what is IMEI on a phone ?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] thousandecibels:
IMEI(INTERNATIONAL MOBILE EQUIPMENT IDENTITY) no. is a number, usually unique, to identify GSM, WCDMA, and iDEN mobile phones, as well as some satellite phones. It is usually found printed inside the battery compartment of the phone. It can also be displayed on the screen of the phone by entering *#06# into the keypad on most phones.

The IMEI number is used by the GSM network to identify valid devices and therefore can be used for stopping a stolen phone from accessing the network in that country. For example, if a mobile phone is stolen, the owner can call his or her network provider and instruct them to "blacklist" the phone using its IMEI number. This renders the phone useless on that network and sometimes other networks too, whether or not the phone's SIM is changed.

I thought 228 would fix it but no, so I went back to sense (sabatoge), and no change, then I went to mikrunny, still no change, I keep doin full wipes in between, everything but sd card, I even flashed the newest radio, I was on 722, still no change, I can't figure this crap out but my phone is almost useless now, o, and battery life sucked since then too, anyone else having similar issues?

Battery life is relevent to signal strength. Crummy signal = crummy battery life. Make sure that your battery cover is on tight. The antennae connectors are actually on the back of the battery cover and if it is not making a good connection then your signal will be dramatically affected.
