[HTC Sensation] 8thsiner:
I would like to partially design my own themed icons but I need to know how many icons are used in total.

A number would be nice, A list of them all would be nicer.

Also a list of dual use icons if they are used such as highlighted version or something.

A note on sizes would help too, it seems you can use smaller icons but presumable some more than others have size restrictions.

That way I can start making my own. Not sure if I could actually create the theme by myself, I am new to the android really. But presumably if the icons were made in advance it should not be difficult.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] knuckledragger2725:
Got my AT&T Note yesterday and it is awesome. I am having some issues getting it into Download Mode. After 100's of tries I am still unsuccesfull. With the phone off I hold the power and volume down buttons at the same time after about 3 seconds the screen flashes and shows the robot and a message about pressing volume up or volume down keys. The screen is only displayed for a second or two, if im fast enough to slide my finger from the volume down to the volume up, it will briefly advance to the next screen and sow the robot again with a few lines of text in the upper right corner with the first line in red. This screen may be displayed for a second or a second and a half and thats it.

any help would be appreciated

( my device is not rooted) , any help will be apreciated
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mDroidd:
I'm not sure either...

You can backup your APPS without root, and also your contacts, bookmarks etc.

You can also backup your data with it, but you can't restore.

The trick is ADB. Do you have a windows or Linux PC?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fadi96:
what is the point of backing them up if im not gonna be able to restore them ? :confused: i have windows 7 os :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mDroidd:
I hate windows...

Well, you can backup ALL, but you only can't restore the data.

example: you backup a game and you came to lvl 25. when you restore, you have to start over.

Gimme moment, I'll send you the necessary files!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fadi96:
aah , it is ok , better than nth , thx alot dude :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mDroidd:
OK.

You see the attachment?

Well, download it.

No go into any directory (but it has to be a bit clean).

Make a directory called BAK

put the adb.exe (inside the .zip) in it.

Now right click on any empty space in the file explorer and click "open cmd here" or something like that.

Now drag adb.exe in the opened window. text will apear.

Then comes the hard part. I don't know if it works when upgrading system, but I want you to type this first and see what happens. that backs up EVERYTHING with data.

(w/o quotes):

"backup -f -all"

See if it works!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mDroidd:
If you want to restore, drag adb in the window and type:

"restore -all"

I think

If it does NOT work, you should do it seperately for every app, or do this:

drag in adb, type:

"backup /data/app/*"

none of these things I tried myself, but they could work.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mDroidd:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fadi96:
i couldnt find the open cmd here button , so i opened it from the start menu and did what did u say there , it says " un recognized command "
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mDroidd:
download this and try again. I couldn't find the open CMD here myself either (whoops).

click the windows icon, in search bar, type "cmd" and press enter.

type "cd" and then drag the folder with ADB in it into the CMD.

Delete everything in it (also the old ADB) and extract this in it:

http://hotfile.com/dl/137291057/f7c3ff1/adbUnzip2Cdrive.zip.html

Then try again.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mDroidd:
Sorry, have a birthday now I'll reply as soon as possible

Greets!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mDroidd:
OK, here you go:

Go to your C drive, and make a directory called ADB

go in it, and extract the files from the link I gave you

click on the windows icon, type CMD in search bar, end press enter.

In your file explorer, go to the ADB directory (so you can see the direcory adb [YES, small characters)

in the CMD, type this (w/o quotes): "cd"

Now drag the folder adb (small characters) out of the file explorer into the cmd and press enter.

now drag the file adb.exe into the cmd and type this (w/o quotes):

"backup -all"

that should do it.

to restore:

"restore *"

Not as in hunting night vision, but night vision theme which allows us to read in the dark without destroying our own night vision...

Most reading apps now have a night vision mode but I want the entire phone to have this mode either as a theme or an app.

Thanks for any help.

I am well aware of the potential of actual night vision possibilities.

And here may be a good tip for other enquirers...thank me

Google - cheap night vision goggles, you will find references and links to buy RED and BLUE light filters, these combined in multiple layers blocks all light bar infrared spectrum enabling the camera to work on true night vision. Simple buy a separate cheap case, and glue these nicely over the camera hole, either stitch over it to keep it tidy or what ever but make sure it won't come off easy.

Of course you could make yourself some slip ons to fit over regular glasses, and then just use the glasses to block the light if you want to take infrared spectrum images.

Or simply carry glued together filters inside a split ring with silicon around the edges and use this as a keyring until you need it to block the other spectrum.

Also because of the lack of infra red light around in the middle of the night in the woods, look into buying an IR torch. Personally I think the surefire Vampire is one of the best and strongest but far smaller and cheaper versions are available. Including security spotlights.

Been trying the XXLPH ICS rom after lots of people on the SKy Go thread stated it was boss! And I must say I am quite impressed.

But... The phone keeps going into a massively deep sleep from which I don't seem to be able to wake it. It necessitates me taking out the battery and then rebooting the phone. I am certain I must be doing something wrong but b**red if I can work out what.

Tried a search but couldn't find an answer and I wondered if one of the wise heads here on XDA oculd help me out!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anakin1979:
Very strange. I took some photos earlier during the day. When I got home, I connected my unrooted Galaxy Note to my Mac with USB debugging mode on and mounted the USB and SD card drives on my desktop. I copied the photos on to my desktop.

Next I ejected the two drives and disconnected the USB connection on my Note. I unplugged the USB cable and the usual "Media Scanning" started.

Normally, the "Media Scanning", "Preparing USB Storage" and "Preparing SD Card" notices would just run for a couple of seconds then your phone will be ready again.

This time though it just kept on running "Media Scanning" and got stuck at that point. I tried opening Gallery, but it would force close. Same thing with Camera.

I clicked on the My Files application and it sees all the contents of both the USB and SD card fine, but the "Media Scanning" thing doesn't want to stop.

Here are the steps I've tried:

1. Rebooted the phone.

2. Disabled USB debugging.

3. Unmounted the SD card, turned phone off, removed SD card. Put it back on.

4. Removed the battery for about five minutes.

5. Went to the "Gallery" application and cleared data.

No luck. Can anyone help me?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
check it again, where it stucks exactly, during scanning pull down notification area n watch

SD card

If it is SD card, remove SD card, scan with antivirus On PC, if not works try format it.

It seems to be stuck at "Media Scanning" and doesn't say if it's USB or SD. I tried connecting it again to my Mac and the two drives mount just fine.

If I copy and paste the contents of both to my Mac, format both drives, and paste the contents back to the phone, you think that would work?

Whats your capacity and SD card class? Mine's 8gb, class 4. I have lots of photos and at times when i transfer large files over (>1gb) and total used space is >4gb, my media will scan for at least 10 minutes, longest i'd have to wait was 30minutes.

Try leaving your phone untouched and battery more than 80% if possible because scanning would cause it to run at max clock freq and it drains battery pretty fast while getting hot at the same time. If you'd like, let it charge, altho it might be hotter.

Mine hit 48deg cel normally when this happens. Wanted to ask if anyone else experienced this?

Hi Guys, I'm looking for a nice clean fast rom with a stock kernal that will allow me to watch sky go.

The only pre-requisite is that it should have the volume wake tweak as my power button is broken.

For months I have been loving the plethora of roms to choose from, with miui my favourite, but now I'm having difficulty with the fact there are so many :p
[HTC Desire S] enigmaamit:
If you've been around for so long, you surely know which way to go right?

If you want a stock kernel, you've left yourself with only Sense ROMs to choose from... and you can try any of the pre-rooted Sense ROMs available (look in the INDEX - or my signature). The volume wake addition is simply a matter of replacing the android.policy.jar file on your phone with one modded for the volume wake patch (Use search and you'll find it somewhere on this forum) - easily done with a file manager with root access....

Also, apparently you don't really need root to get volume wake up.... see this post by @fox2delta : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=22903125&postcount=4 who uses a combination of golocker+golauncherEX+widgetlocker to get the same thing.

What do we have here:-

All Gameloft games working on motorola razr/droid razr/razr maxx

What do we need to:-

Do a little build prop tweak. This will make your market think that your device is xperia arc s instead of razr

open your build properties and from there change your

ro.product.model to LT18i (or any other which you want)

ro.product.brand to SEMC (or any other which you want)

ro.product.device to LT18i (or any other which you want)

That's it, Save your settings and reboot your device to apply updates!

Then simply open any app and play!

Have fun!
