Yeah, WidgetLocker can't swipe that screen for you yet, but I found if you set it to IMMEDIATELY lock so the lock (pattern, pin, whatever) is always shown, you only get WidgetLocker followed by the lock. If you don't want the lock every time you turn on the phone (like myself), Delayed Lock will fix that, I have it set to "5 minutes after power off".

However, I've noticed a few times I've unlocked and the lock did NOT show, so I'm paying closer attention to it. I've twiddled a few settings in Delay Lock, maybe that'll help. This setup worked perfect on my Nexus One.

Hi everyone. In this short thread I just want to show you how to create your own app. Continue this steps:

*It's really easy. :cool:

1. Register in www.iBuildApp.com.

2. Select the device you want for (Android and iPhone).

3. Customize your app.

4. Enjoy the app.

well.. i guess its completely free. except that i found that there was an iBuildApp icon alone on the bottom of the app when i created mine.

but anyways its simple and its awesome!

Wow this does look cool! I'll give it a try in a little bit. I think we've all wanted to make our own app at least once haha.

[Kindle Fire General] meso100:
Hi

I have been reading this forum today and haven't managed to find an answer that is 100% confirmed.

I am close to buying a Kindle Fire and live in the UK.

If I buy it can I unlock it with the Boritto unlock if it is version 6.2.2 or does it only work if I was in the US? I read something that suggests I need to be in the US to do this.

Also, is there a proven way for me to block Amazon from forcing an update to the device?

Many thanks
[Kindle Fire General] Sblood86:
Assuming there is nothing stopping you from downloading burrito root I can't imagine what location would have to do with rooting it. I believe there are a few different methods that people have tried though I cannot speak to how well they work. Easiest way to guarantee amazon doesn't update it is to flash a non-amazon rom lol, but as I said others may know more regarding killing OTA
[Kindle Fire General] meso100:
Really? So you think its as simple as putting a ROM on i.e. CM7, something that isn't stock and the update won't get through?

If so that sounds pretty simple...
[Kindle Fire General] Sblood86:
Let's put it this way, I bought my kindle in late december; amazon pushed an update, I've never once seen :P
[Kindle Fire General] death2all110:
Flash cm9/cm7/miui once rooted. and you wont see updates from amazon.
[Kindle Fire General] meso100:
Thanks guys that's really good news. It would be pointless for me to keep standard as I wouldn't get any amazon services being in the UK.

Next question, how are you finding the tablet with a flashed ROM, is it smooth running with no issues?
[Kindle Fire General] dieandromeda:
i bought my kindle preordered last november. in a couple of weeks (no custom rom atm) i just use stock rom with minimum tweak. as expected amazon market is useless even if we using us ID. apart of that, all went well until i installed custom rom; cm7. so far so good. i can run most of my fav apps, listening to music, hd video and other simple browsing and reading.

stock adw launcher is a tittle bit sluggish so i just use launcherpro which performing as it should without any hiccup.
[Kindle Fire General] meso100:
Hi, I don't know if its me but that sounded a bit contradictory.

You're on stock ROM, all went well until you installed CM7 and so far so good?

Just so I am clear, you are not running CM7 you are standard with a launcher?
[Kindle Fire General] ammubarak:
I lived in Saudi Arabia and I bought mine in December last year 2011. I rooted it and install CM7 just after I received it. Currently I am using CM9 (ics) in daily bases with no problem. For sure, I do have a complete backup of the original stock ROM, if I need to go back.
[Kindle Fire General] meso100:
So you bought it to not use as intended and just to change into a bare bones tablet like in am intending?

Is it what you expected? Do you wish you had chosen anything else like the Nook for instance?
[Kindle Fire General] vahusa:
Even though you live outside U.S you can still enjoy the different amazon services like videos & app market search for "World Wide Kindle Fire" in the android market.

Those services are the added value of this device, don't give up on it :).
[Kindle Fire General] meso100:
Thanks I had never heard of that. So the unroot and root, how long would that take?

Also the reviews seem a bit mixed, lots saying or doesn't work. It must be problems with the server...
[Kindle Fire General] ammubarak:
I like to have a full control of my device, especially this device is equipped with hardware specifications suitable for functions beyond the original Amazon defined use.
[Kindle Fire General] vahusa:
The unroot, root process takes less then a second...

The app use several different servers, so if one server doesn't work you can always switch to the next one... also you can enter your own proxy server manually.

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] snlzkn:
I was using XXKPQ Gingerbread. Soon my phone started restarting and giving errors.

When I use ODIN I can put new files in to system folders. I installed XXKPE and clockworkmod, then I used adb remount, adb shell to delete everything under data/data, data/app, sdcard, sd-ext. When I do ls it said folders were empty but after restart everything came back!

Is there a way to mount a file system as a volatile memory? It accepts all the changes I say but it reverts back when unmounted and remounted. I thought it might be permission problem but fix_permissions script does not solve it. Also I heard 0 available memory bugs in the forums but my case is not that either.

On recovery menu, I used clockworkmod options to mount the data folder, I erased everything in it via adb shell, and without restarting I unmounted and mounted again using CWM, the files were there again in adb shell!

Since there are files under data/data and data/app folders, I get crashes of those applications all the time when I try to use the phone. If I install the same application from market it works fine but after restart it reverts back to crashing.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ggclanlord:
Exists even after xxkpe + pit flash?

Try converting to ext4 and formatting and then flash xxkpe + pit.

Having read many such issues now, it seems its MoBo issue. Search around a bit. From what i have read, probably service center's the only one who would be able to help you now.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] reivaj20:
Try VurrutRom , when you install it the rom exchange the internal sd with the external sd.

you will see that your /data folder is now in the external sd. I hope this fix your problem.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] snlzkn:
@ggclanlord: This phone had motherboard issues before but this looks more like a protection to me. No matter which rom I install the applications and their settings just stay there. I might try ext4 later as well.

How do I change the internal sd with external sd? I have found this but it does not say it needs to be Vurrut. Is it somehow easier with Vurrut?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1088474
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] silentvisitor:
First of all, why are you trying to clear any partition manually ?

Second, /data is a separate partition altogether neither on internal sd nor external.

Flash a full xxkpe with pit and re-partitioned checked. Then flash CF-root. Your phone should return to normal.

Generally you should not need to manually format partition ever but in case you need there are options under Advanced in CWM.

Hope it helps!

Good luck !

[Desire HD General] mpathan:
I've just upgraded to 2.3.5 (tmobile) and noticed that the car panel and premium navigation missing.

Any idea how to get it back?
[Desire HD General] mpathan:
Anyone?
[Desire HD General] zdjaib:
HTC has removed the car panel since 2.3.5 update. :( You can try to find some free software...

edit: this is google car panel apk http://www.mediafire.com/?2v4mjjmew9crhcf
[Desire HD General] mpathan:
Thanks zdjaib.

I thought the upgrade had a problem.

I can get to the car panel via locations, but there is no direct access to it, nor is their direct access to premium navigation. That too is accessed via locations. :-(
[Desire HD General] eastpaw:
Hi, mpathan,

The loss of standalone car mode drove me nuts too. In my case, I was happily using Car Mode Control to switch into Car Dock Home v3, but the 2.3.5 ota with Sense 3 completely borked that up. It actually made me so unhappy that I finally got down to rooting my phone, lol. Now I've got my phone running the way I want it once more.

Anyway, if you're looking for a solution to this, read on:

1. Install Titanium Backup. The free version works fine. You need to be rooted to run this though.

2. In Ti, navigate to backup/restore. You need to click on the following two programs and uninstall them:

a) Locations

b) Locations Launcher.

3. Install the car panel you want to use. I'm very happy with Car Dock Home v3 (available from Android Market), but you might prefer Google Car Home or some other car panel instead.

4. Restart your phone. Now Car Mode Control should once more be able to turn on car mode and call Car Dock Home!

Of course, this method completely kills HTC's Locations app, but since I don't bother with that, it's fine for me.
[HTC EVO 3D] SlevinK:
I properly installed the rom, at least I think so, and everything seems to working just fine. The only thing that worries me is slight shocking from touching the camera button
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
Sounds like you have somethin grounding out in the phone hardware issue.
[HTC EVO 3D] SlevinK:
I don't see how the hardware could have messed up within a few hours. This was not happening with other roms, I flashed MeanROM less than 4 hours ago. Everything booted up fine, and from what I can see there is nothing wrong with it except for that small issue. I haven't full tested as I'm scared of actually getting shocked.. lol
[HTC EVO 3D] tgruendler:
You really think a rom would cause the phone to shock you?
[HTC EVO 3D] chlehqls:
There's a reason why it's "mean."

Wow
[HTC EVO 3D] patrao_n:

[HTC EVO 3D] joehunni:
I'm beginning to think you have Down Syndrome.
[HTC EVO 3D] SlevinK:
Perhaps, that's not funny though and rather rude. There was no need to use such a term, as there is plenty of other things you could have said.
[HTC EVO 3D] notsointeresting:
All flaming aside, the guys are trying to say something. There is no real way for the ROM to be the cause of a continuous hardware problem such as that. "Getting Warmer" makes sense because of things the Kernel may be doing or RAM intensive background tasks , but a camera button creating an electric shock because of a ROM no. To prove this point (and what you could have done before making the thread specific about MeanROM) is flash a different ROM, and see the problem still persisting
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
Lol not helpful but funny.... But again I think the guy has hardware issues with the phone like something grounding out which is causing a shock effect not related to the rom ... Hardware issue... I would take it to sprint..
[HTC EVO 3D] SlevinK:
If I take it to Sprint, would my insurance(TEP) cover it even though I rooted? Also, I understand that ROMs should not cause severe hardware issues but, as I'm still a newbie, it was something which I needed some suggestions. On a side note,I've been running the ROM for a few days now and the issue went away after I removed battery and has not come back. The ROM is great and the battery life is amazing, 4 hours of Netflix on 3G at 50-75% brightness for 90%. My battery then lasted another 5 hours on the last 10% with a few calls, texts, and data.

Thanks to all for the suggestions, will keep looking into it and continue reading.
[HTC EVO 3D] phantomg1:
no sprint will not support the phone if they see if its root. they will tell you to reload the stock software. the only way they would support it is if you drop it in water or something where the phone didn't turn on anymore. because at that point they don't know or would know if it was rooted.
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
You shoudnt have any issues just unroot .

Thanks for the great guide!

I have a few questions. What are kernels? What do they do? Can I have a bad kernel and ROM combination? I'm currently using AOKP build 27. What are some good kernels you would suggest? Should I save my current kernel? How would I go back to my current kernel?

Are BAMF and CM9 only for the CDMA GNex? They both say Toro and isn't that the CDMA version and Maguro is the GSM?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 7unk3r:
Tks man it was easy and smooth, now i´m rooted rocking cm9 on my Galaxy Nexus!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubakuba:
Kernels are the base of your phone.

They are the "engine" as far as software is concerned.

Bad Kernel/Rom combinations...kind of.

Some features may be removed from kernels. Like the ability to use the color control built into CM9. But generally, no. Other than hard-linked features built for the rom and supported by the kernel, no. I've yet to find any other than the CM9 reference I made.

Going back is as simple as re-flashing your kernel.

Remember: turn of any CPU changing apps like SetCPU or Rom-specific "performance" features before switching. You can then re-evaluate your settings.

Bamf is toro only still, I believe.

If it isn't too much trouble, it would be awesome if you could put the steps to renaming the recovery.sh so the clockwork mod sticks and perhaps to reverse it (if I remember this right).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubakuba:
Actually, I would include that...

But flashing recovery through rom manager works as well.

And I'd rather keep it noob-friendly.

I follow a forum where they said to rename that...and there are like 15 pages of people asking the same questions as to why terminal/adb aren't working.

Upon checking to make sure I wasn't wrong...

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
By all means. :)

"mount -o rw,remount /system" should technically work as well, but given that I'm not a big fan of shortcuts, I like to explicitly indicate the partition and the file system.

-o rw,remount <== this remounts a partition that is already mounted, as read-write

-t ext4 <== this specifies to mount it as ext4

/dev/block/mmcblk0p1 <== this is the system partition

/system <== this is what you are mounting it as
