Hi everyone, i was wondering if I can un theme my galaxy note i717

I think my theme makes the phone slower :(

Is there any ways that I Can un theme easy and simple?

I don't want to reinstall Rom again :( took long time to get here)

Thank you
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
I'm not real sure what your wanting, but you may be barking up the wrong tree. A theme is simply a collection of visual setting changed to match. Depending if your running a custom rom or not (assuming you are if you flashed a theme), you can change this, but I doubt very seriously that you will much or any performance gains. What we could do is start by discussing your issues and possibly recommend changes to help you get things moving smoother.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] diablo009:
Make a list of files changed in theme, and replace them with the ones from original ROM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] GuestX0019:
if you have a nandroid from before you themed--you should--just restore it--
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] welchertc:
It's not your theme that's spring down your phone. Look for other issues.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] an1mal:
I want to un theme as well. Not for performance reasons, just cause I'm bored of it and want the old look again atleast my app icons, I like the rest of the theme. I did not do anything special before installing this theme on Saurom ROM so no Nandroid. How can I get back to stock theme??? I have looked everywhere and no luck getting any useful info. :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] studacris:
Making a theme revert instructions:

Take the ROM zip, and the theme zip on your pc. Make a copy of the theme and rename it revert(or whatever you want)

Now, open both the ROM and your newly made zip with 7zip

put the windows side by side

Ignoring the "meta-INF" folder go into each folder of the revert til you get to the apks, doing the same with ROM zip, til your open to the same place.

take all the apks that match the ones in revert from the ROM and drag and drop them into the revert... Thus overwriting the ones in the revert presently.

Do this for each folder with apks in it(again not touching the meta-INF folder)

After that's done just close it up and transfer t0 phone and flash in recovery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] an1mal:
Thanks so much man, I'll give that a try. I'd like to leave everything the same except the app icons. I really like the rest of it as is. Thanks again!

[HTC Sensation] swift2fly:
i'm sure this has been asked before but i just want to make sure. both the sensation and the XE have the same cpu chip but the XE chip is O/C'd to 1.5 ghz, correct? meaning i can O/C my sensation to 1.5ghz and run it daily without any worries of shortening its life? also, what is the max frequency this chip can handle, safely?

HTC|Sensation|Cambodia
[HTC Sensation] mrew42:
The normal Sensation is in fact underclocked, so by clocking it to 1.5 you are releasing its ability. :)

As far as the Max is concerned, mine tops out @ 1.72 before I start getting problems (shutdowns and VERY warm handset)

Remember every chip is different so what is good for me may not be good for you, or you may even be able to go to 1.8!!!
[HTC Sensation] swift2fly:
thanks for the info. i can OC up to 1.83, anything after that my phone would just reboot. if the chipset is underclocked ive been underclocking it even more to 1.18.

HTC|Sensation|Cambodia
[HTC Sensation] Pash.:
The Sensation and Sensation XE use identical hardware - just with the case of the Sensation, as pointed out by the previous post, is underclocked - the Sensation XE is just clocked higher, has had a lick of paint and been covered in Beats gimmicks. Which is pretty worthless if you're flashing ROMs anyway.

When it comes to overclocking, any form reduces the lifespan of components, but not to any sort of level that you should be losing sleep over. You should just play around with clock speeds and get the balance between speed and stability you're looking for. As pointed out in countless threads, every CPU is slightly unique, so some can take higher clocks than others, whilst some can only just make the 1.5GHz mark, or so I have read.

If you do go over 1.7GHz, it is probably worth keeping an eye on any excess heat being kicked out. Overclocking does have a slight degradation on battery life, but it's heat you should be wary of. Heat is the death of electronics, and warranty doesn't cover overclocking (although, if you are overclocking, you're rooted, so your warranty is void anyway :p).

Just don't go mad. In my opinion, it's definitely worth bridging the gap between the Sensation and the XE by bolstering it up to 1.5 GHz, but after that point, it becomes more of a benchmark game - which don't really mean anything anyway. Clock speed isn't everything - it's more down to the architecture of the CPU more than anything.
[HTC Sensation] swift2fly:
thanks for the info. i dont plan to over do it. i recently installed GTA3 and it was running slow and choppy so i set my cpu to 1.5ghz and cpu governor to "performance" and it runs the game smoothly. just wanted to make sure that its ok to run it at 1.5 for a long period of time. i dont really have a reason to clock my cpu any higher. if anything i'd just stick to 1.18 just for battery consumption reasons.

hi all,

I have installed and flashed few roms on my GS2. Suddently google play stopped downloading apps, it gets stagnated at "Downloading" status. Have tried every trick in the book like reinstalling ROMs, reinstalling market/play app, clear data/clear cache.. tried many different roms including stock.. but this problem flows in all versions all kernels and all solutions..

badly need you help in solving the problem.I am able to restore apps back from titanium and these apps function normally!and no problem with google talk as well!

Its the same kernel that is in the rc rom.. i think that is a standard one.. but as you read... Next on my todo list.. is the kernel.. which should hav overclock undervolt.. maybe some speed improvements.. more govenors.. like smartass2.. tweak for wifi... Etc...

Battlife.. should be the same as original.. but should be better with selfmade kernel... As we can force cpu to use max 256 mhz if screen off.. but also be able if on to go to 1500-i think max 1700mhz... And undervolt the kernel...

Thx :)

[HTC Sensation XL] MadCobbler:
DutchDanny did an OC kernel for the BinDroid rom which should in theory work on this, but to be honest I thought stock speeds were better than overclocking, I think you're right though on the Overclocking as anything higher than 1.7Ghz was a little unstable and anything above 1.92Ghz was very unstable... having said that if you can UV it a little that might make it a little more stable ;)

When playing a m4v file format with the default player 720p it works perfactly but when it passes the 2,5g size it won't recognize it, and in the htc sensation android 4 it read the 3,5g file with no problem. So is it android os problem or xperia player? ??

Thanx
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Trappyhappy:
MX player should work if you switch to hardware decoding. I noticed it just closes the file directly on some videos. If it does, open settings and try different ways of decoding as default (for both video stream and audio stream and see wich works, i dont remember wich settings i used to solve it).
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] BluechipJ:
Can anyone please confirm that it will play MKV (720p or 1080p) encoded using the High @ L4.1 Profile?

Excellent. Thanks added. :-)

I use my phone with HDMI frequently so it has to be able to play any media I put on it. All the TV I download is MKV and most are switching to 4.1 for the best compression.

Honestly I think everyone should try BS Player, I tried a lot of different players but BS was the only one really capable of playing 1080p video smoothly :)

You fail at reading.

As stated in my post, there's an entire folder of samples.

Downgrade is the best way now.so just follow this steps:

Tool you Need : download all

a: Flash Tool.Geit it here http://androxyde.github.com/Flashtool/

b: Firmware WT19i_4.0.2.A.0.58 .Get it here http://www.mediafire.com/?zwmzpu9czf9ib4c

c: Rooting by Doomlord Get it here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=18805532

d: Cwm Recovery.Get it here http://www.mediafire.com/?73xv18tht0e8zt4

Steps:

1.Unzip firmware and put in flashtool firmware

2.Go to flashtool.Power off hp.and switch on with pressing volume down while connecting usb.You ll see green led.Flash firmware.And setup as 1st time you buy hp.

3.Extract Doomlord root kitt .Before root make sure usb debugging is tick and display screen timeout at hp set to 10 or 30 minutes. Run runme.bat.check whether superuser is there

4.Now.you must update to new firmware using update on air(OTA).In your hp,go to setting-about-software update.download and install.WARNING : DONT UPDATE USING PC COMPANION OR YOU WILL LOSE YOUR ROOT

5.After update.Unzip cwm install and run the second file script for wt19i.install-cmw2.cmd.This proses like the 3rd step.Make sure usb debugging mode and displays screen timeout set to 10min

And done...u have newer version root firmware + cwm without unlock bootloader.Thank to doomlord and nobodyAtall

Press thank if you like my threat.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Kira.Lawliet:
So any other method than that other than unlocking the bootloader or flashing custom .62s? Too bad since mine doesn't have an OTA update because it tells that i'm on the latest fw although I have the .58 official stock rom. Been checking for days now.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] yusmiza:
I think it because of your firmware factor.Try reflashing using my method.Before this my newer firmware is. 69 after update but i downgrade using my method because i m losing root and now my newer firmware is. 62.maybe because csc.base on region.some of us get. .62 as new firmware and some got, .69 as latest firmware available .my method no need to unlocking bootloader or custom rom.its stock rom.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
If you have .58, then you don't have to flash again. Just root it and then make OTA update.

Over point 2, I disagree. To enter flashmode on WT19, just plug in USB cable to computer, turn off your phone, hold down Volume Down button and connect USB cable to your phone. Green LED shows up.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] rvhynn21:
i'm sorry i dont know how to update my phone via ota wat do you mean by ota? i'v done updating it before via pc companion but it disable my root, i'm trying to update via wifi but it says your phone is up to date.. do you have a tut for updating it via ota??tnx again..
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] yusmiza:
Ota mean on the air.u can update from your own hp.without connecting to pc companion.u can update firmware by its own.go to your application in ur phone,find update center or go to setting,about,software update.make sure u connect to wifi cause its using bunch of data...i think u re not connect to wifi or good network data and thats why your get message that you already have new firmware because your update center cant connect to update server.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Someguyfromhell:
Just a note, if you have rooted phone, updating via PC Companion will lose the root.

Wow, nicest forum i have ever been on, i like how the forum gives you responses similar to existing post titles. Not seen that before. Clever.

I am a noob, new, rook etc.

Yes i have googled it, i have about 40 root-related tabs open at the moment.

Have had my imported galaxy s2 GT-i9100 for about 7months no dramas. Sick of waiting for official updates, was still on 2.3.4 XWKI4, decided to attempt to root -> custom rom

Got as far as the root before i f##ked anything up.

Got a matching insecure kernel from odia's post. Got odin 1.8.5. Was going to use s2 root but haven't got that far.

Put phone in USB Debugging mode.

Put phone in download mode

Restarted

Connected, used ODIN, got as far as zImage and then it all just stopped.

Pulled the battery.

Reinstalled Kies drivers

Turned all Kies processes off/Firewall off

Changed Cables

Pc/Odin wouldn't recognise phone in any mode.

Rebooted Pc

Reboot phone (seemingly fine but didnt check everything worked, just assumed i got this far so it must be okay)

Usb debugging turned off, to check phone still connects to kies.

Phone connects to kies and is back to it's good old self

phone back into download mode

Killed all kies processes

Connect to odin fine

stuck at zImage again

Hoping it will still work after i pulled the battery as this is my daily.

Tips anyone?

Sorry for overly long explanation, but was hoping to limit how much of other people's time i waste.

if you are using windows 7 and latest odin, dont forget to select "run as administrator" when opening odin and also check the device manager for missing drivers if any.

Run as administrator

Hadn't thought of that. Had already tried doing 1.8.3 and 1.8.5. Running the usb to the back of my pc straight into the motherboard. Both cables that I have tried are pretty good. Going to try a different one today. Will try new firmware again. Really just want this to work.

I was having the same issue. Then, I killed all Kies processess, moved Odin from desktop to Documents and started as administrator. Turned off the device, remove the battery, put back and tuned on download mode. Then, all worked fine.

For me, unconecting the device after close Odin, and just after that remove the battery, worked fine!

For me as well, thanks ;)

But there's yet another problem: After it finally worked and the device rebooted it's stuck in a bootloop (or rather on the splashscreen with the newly acquired triangle :D)

However I can't get into recovery and it won't boot. All I can access is download mode. What should or could I do?
