I could be wrong but it says that apktool.yml isn't present which usually is created when you decompile. At least I've seen it when I've been doing it.

The phones run completely different versions of sense. The of evo was sense 1. The 3d is sense 3.0 or higher, depending on the Rom

I figured out what I did wrong. I didn't in compile the HTC resource apk.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] billbowers:
Hey robobob.. What version android are you running?

I'm afraid that I forgot to mention, whenever you decompile com.htc.resources.apk, there is a folder in there, I believe it's called raw...I'm out of town and not near my laptop right now. Anyway, it contains the animations for the weather on sense 3.0. It will not work if compressed and will cause a FC anytime you turn on your phone. The fix is to take the folder, using 7zip or winrar, and remove it from a non edited resources.apk and drop it into your modified one. Make sure compression on 7zip or winrar is set at store. Sorry about forgetting that little detail. Hope this helps out.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Robobob1221:
Hi,

I'm on 2.3.4. Others have already said this particular mod won't work as I'm on an older version of sense. It worked on settings and a few other apks but caused several inc. people, to either fc or just not open. something to do with the drawable-hdpi folder. then after a reboot a bootloop.

Thanks for the advice anyway though.

Edit: Tried what you said as a last ditch attempt. I copied over the raw ,and drawable hdmi folder to make sure. Then I added the META-INFO folder and Manifest.xml all from the original com.htc.resources, and bingo!! I got me my transparency! Thanks for the advice:D Been driving me mental for the past week! I'm a slow learning noob at these things.

LG Vortex (the verizon optimus)

My phone is a LG Vortex with 2.2 on it. I rooted it with gingerbreak. Installed rom manager and flashed clockworkmod (selecting....incorrectly, LG optimus v....i thought v was for verizon not virgin mobile....) then proceeded to "flash from sd" from the rom manager menu. It asked if I would like to wipe data and cache, to which I said yes. Then it rebooted and got stuck on a second LG logo that replaced the verizon logo. It goes no further. Now, I've pulled the battery then tried to do a master reset using vol down + home + power, which does nothing.

My question is, "Is there a way to save my phone?" I understand if all my data is lost (I've already backed all that up). Thanks in advance, and sorry if this is the wrong forum, I didn't see one for the lg vortex....

I have 1 question

Hello there,

I have a Galaxy GT S7500 bought from Vodafone, it was coded on their carrier and I got some apps from them like Vodafone Update and in Play Store it's customized for vodafone users and it kinda bugs me. Is there any way that I can reset that customization ? I want the pure android without the vodafone in it.

P.S. : Won't root cause I'm a newbie with Android phones, this is my first one and I don't want to do something wrong, I still have to learn about these types of phones and Android.

I have Android 2.3.6 installed.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] theja239:

Out of curios...here is ur ans..it may work...download latest google play like google play.apk in google search download and install hope it does the trick...if not mention try to help with other..
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] :
Answer

Yes, it has been unlocked after a day.

Yet the Vodafone customizations are still on, and that Update program is starting in background, it consumes RAM memory and it ain't that much, but for a 400 MB RAM Memory phone, i'd spare as much as I can for my other apps.

Tried, that's why I'm writing here, I am newbie on Android but not in computers/OS-es... I've tried uninstalling and am thinking of a factory restore/reset.

Just need link to ICS root tutorial

Not sure this is the right thread, but it does encourage questions, so here is mine: I have an "Ematic eGlide XL PRO II". It was just released to the public 2-3 weeks ago, so there is no device-specific posts to reference.

I want to install Google Play, which means I need to root the tablet. I have spent hours searching these forums and the web: I cannot find a single tutorial about how to root Ice Cream Sandwich (it's the default OS on the device).

I've seen tools and instructions for rooting Android 2.X, but I'm thinking using the tools and guides on Android 4.x might be a good way to brick the tablet.

I need device-independent instructions!!!
