Yes, order of operation is important. I think that file gets loaded on boot. If you are deleting the file first, then rebooting, then creating the file, and expecting the lock screen and power menu to work withOUT rebooting, that could be your issue - because the file doesn't exist when you are booting the phone.

yes i also reboot after the file creation/copy...

Screen Lock Problem

For ALL whoever are facing problems with the LOCK SCREEN here is the solution :

Tools Needed:

1. Hex Editor

2. Root Explorer

Steps to restore:

1. Using root explorer locate the /efs/imei/ folder. In that folder there should be a file called keystr. In my case the file was missing which is why the lock screen was missing and was causing my problems.

2. using root explorer create a new file called keystr

3. also in root explorer open the file keystr in text editor and type ON

4. now go into hex editor and locate the /efs/imei/keystr file.

5. using hex editor the first two values in green should be 4f and 4e. all others should be 00.

6. make sure you save the file.

7. reboot.

Press Thanks, if it helps you...

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rubber guard:
So i got a formerly euro based xoom , but for some reason its a MZ604. Its a refurb by motorola

but when i booted it up it was in dutch with the corresponding time zone.

i tried putting the IML77 build on a stick and flashing via stock recovery but it failed the verification test.

any help would be appreciated.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rubber guard:
OK, after reading post after post I found this, which did the trick

you have to revert your xoom back to stock US 3.2 (3.2.1 had been patched so harder to get around) and then allow it to update via OTA.

this was a perfect set of instructions in this thread. Very thorough and I followed them exactly and it worked on the 1st try. Thanks.

[Desire General] erklat:
I can't comment on that as I wouldn't touch anything >Sense 1.9 with a poke. What I'm saying you might get marginal improvement at a risk of getting more trouble than needed. When you get random dropouts or data connection issues, changing radios might help, but battery life was never drastically improved in my case.
[Desire General] akhillad:
Which camera do u use??? The sense 3.0 cam or the amaze cam....

U must have selected one of them in the aroma installer while installing the Rom....

If u selected sense 3.0 cam then any sense 3.5 or 3.0rom can give u that... Eg. Aurora( sense 3.0 ROM)

2) Is it possible to for some one to post benchmark/quadrant results for both ROMS? I would really appreciate it.

Aceoyame is on the move trying to move to a new home and he is busy. The highlight of the week is a crappy soak test Moto is pushing down our throats.

I will **** bricks if that somehow turns out to be ICS, but that is so unlikely I am willing to bet a $1000 on it (No, sorry, I won't be giving out said money to anyone on the off chance that Melvin at Moto released ICS via the soak... :p). At the very least I hope the new update is rootable AND has a 2.6.35 kernel because apparently that will help some things, as per DZK. I remember him saying sometime back that there are some functions in the 2.6.35 kernel that can help him port ICS...

Hello all.

I saw a few people who couldn't get extra space on Dropbox. It's short guide how to do it.

First of all you need rom with Sense 4 (we've got a few. It's your choice) and of course Dropbox account (but you can create new so don't worry).

1. Get mobile network package if in your rom WiFi doesn't work

2. Do full wipe

3. Flash rom

It's obvious.

4. Configure rom. When you see Dropbox login please log in or create new account.

5. Continue configuration and use your rom.

That's all. You should get an e-mail from Dropbox crew: "You got 23gb bla bla bla".

After that check your Dropbox. I done it on my PC. Just opened Dropbox folder and after few minutes it showed information about my extra space.

If something doesn't work please do full wipe, flash rom and try once again.

You'll get extra 23gb space valid for 24 months permanently.

If it works plz click thanks button :cool:

Plz don't write about illegal Dropbox app on this thread!
