:good:
[HTC Sensation] ydoubleun:
Thanks for the fonts.

I did replaced my native font with Roboto- Regular. I can read all my native font now.

But I have a little bit problem, the fonts in Settings menu are disappeared now.

Any idea?
[HTC Sensation] reubenbubu:
Did you do the permissions ?
[HTC Sensation] ydoubleun:
Yes, I did. Like u did. Rwwrwwrww
[HTC Sensation] reubenbubu:
I'm very sorry but i have no idea why it wouldn't work completely :\

It seems to have worked to plenty of other users.

Maybe you could try taking a full backup install a different rom and try changing font again just to see if it's an issue with the rom of your choice.

But it seems like a lot of work.
[HTC Sensation] ydoubleun:
Yes. It will be a lot of work. Let me try to replace original ttf and use a different native one.
[HTC Sensation] ydoubleun:
I just replaced with another one.

So far okay. Will update if anything wrong .

Hope not!
[HTC Sensation] ydoubleun:
i think it works fine now. not a problem with Settings Menu font.. cool!

thanks again reubenbubu
[HTC Sensation] step909:
i really like the look of this font,im currently running a JB rom but when back on ics im going to give it a shot

cheers

ah, i tried all that option of restoring EFS... no luck.... my IMEI number is still unchanged... WIFI / Bluetooth not working.... Serial number of phone shown as 00000000

it does work and i can make calls/receive... is it possible to restore it from another skyrocket or modify any files
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cschmitt:
Try:

Dial:

*#197328640#

In service mode menu select:

[6] Common

[6] NV Rebuild

If the bottom of screen says:

Golden-backup exist

You can Restore Cal/NV

Then you can try:

[4] Restore Cal/NV

Then reboot.

DO NOT USE MENU ITEMS 1, 2, or 5 - These will wipe the hidden efs1, efs2, or efs backup partitions.!!!

Proceed at your own risk.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] nkamurlekar:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cschmitt:
So what exactly were you doing to the phone that caused the imei to be lost? Rom flash? Deleting files in /efs? Knowing the cause will help with solution. What Rom are you currently on? What file names are in /efs/imei folder?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] nkamurlekar:
IMEI folder contains - bt.txt / keystr / mps_code.dat... i set to default nv_ram from dial secret codes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cschmitt:
If I'm understanding correctly, the reason the IMEI was lost in the first place was because you did a 'Load Default NV' from the 'REBUILD NV' menu?

Sorry, but your out of luck. That menu option rebuilds the efs partitions containing the IMEI information stored in mmcblk0p18 and mmcblk0p19 with default values and is not recoverable.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cybertlc:
Is there no way to fix this? I'm in the same boat. I have the IMEI number (it's on a sticker on my retail box).........but which file(s) need hex edited to get it back in there? I had to do this with my Sensation once (I believe it was editing mmcblk0p4 5 and 6?).

Any idea on this phone???
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mindmajick:
If cschmitt says it can't be done.... it probably can't be done.

Sorry! :(

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cybertlc:
From the sounds of it blk18 and blk19 have the IMEI embedded in there somewhere according to his post? I looked at them both and don't see it, though.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cybertlc:
Thanks, I'll do that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cschmitt:
You don't see them because both of those partitions are encrypted. One is the working copy other is a fail over backup, in case the first is corrupted. They also contains radio calibration data, phone isn't much use without it.

Did you attempt the restore golden backup thing listed a few posts back?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cybertlc:
Yes I did. So basically it's 100% hosed? There's no hack or hex edit that can change my IMEI back to my original IMEI (which I know?)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cschmitt:
Well, your question has prompted me to dig a little deeper. :)

There may be a slim possibly of restoring the M9K partitions, provided you have a nandroid backup of the device prior to the IMEI loss. If so, can you check in the data.ext4.tar of the backup and tell me if there are 3 files (efs1.bin, efs2.bin, and efs3.bin) located in /data/qcks of the tar?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cybertlc:
I'll check tonight when I'm home and let you know. Thanks!!

---------- Post added at 02:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:19 PM ----------

I don't see the QCKS directory in that archive.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cschmitt:
So no /qcks subdirectory under the /data folder? Are there other folders in /data such as /misc, /property, /radio, /secure ? Maybe PM me a dropbox link to the data.ext4.tar and I'll hunt around.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cybertlc:
There's a property folder........but no EFS files in there. There's a radio folder which is empty. There's a secure/data folder which is empty. Misc folder has a CAL.BIN and some other files and directories...

I"ll upload the file.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] solid009:
I'm reviving this thread :) I cannot locate my nv_data.bin in the efs folder and when I go into service mode to restore nv it says golden backup does not exist. I do have the /data/qcks/ folder with efs1, efs2, efs3 and temp.dump files in it though. What can be done?

EFS Partition Help Please

After a couple of hair pulling days I finaly ran across your post about restoring EFS partitions on the beloved SkyRocket Here: http://xdaforums.com/show...9&postcount=27

While I am extremely grateful for you post, I have a couple of questions about the procedure.

1. I have never used a hex editor before, and could use some guidance with that I do have Notepad++ installed but I don't know which hex editor plugin to use as there are two. one is UNICODE and the other ANSI I tried to istall both but Notepad++ said that I could not use the ANSI because My Notepad++ was UNICODE.

2. What would the actual step-by-step of removing the first 40 bytes of the header be exactly. Using Notepad++ on Win7

3. Why is it that we are to remove 40 bytes instead of 44 bytes, as the 3 efs.mbn files in system/etc/firmware are all 44 bytes

Thats pretty much all the Questions I have the rest of the process I am pretty familiar with.

I'm needing this information not because my EFS is corrupt exactly but because somewhere along the way I restored a nandroid from my SkyRocket to My Wifes SkyRocket and now they both have identical IMEi's as well as identical serial #'s.

That reminds me to ask you about that now

4. Do you know of a way to restore the factory serial# from a nandroid. or will the above discussed procedure fix both " one could only Hope "

Any Way, Thank You Very Much,

Your many guides and contributions have been a blessing for the 4 years I've been running these SkyRockets.

I hope to hear from you soon.

Thanks again

So I tried the method posted in post #27

as a result I now have IMEI 0, IMEISV 00, Serial number f9b*****

I did do the dd backups of 17-20 first but restoring those is only going to get me back to having essentially a cloned device.

oddly enough I still have service my lockscreen and power menu still function normaly

even with the current state IMEI 0

any Help greatly appreciated

Hi cschmitt. I have a GT-i9210t, an Australian version of the Skyrocket with the same issues described above. Reading my PIT file, it seems this model has efs1 on partition 17 and efs2 on partition 18. I've created copies of each file as above from my backed up qcks folder having deleted 40 bytes leaving the exact 3,145,728 bytes as you suggest. My question is, do I use the above push and flash commands but change the block numbers from block/mmcblk0p18 to block/mmcblk0p17, or should I be using another command

Hey Everybody.

As some of you may know I have an Archos 70IT Tablet -Running Android 2.2 Froyo. It is awesome, but lately it has had some lags and it has been quite slow.

It sometimes doesn't respond to the keyboard or sometimes restarts by itself.

I have Urukdroid, with Android 2.2, and the "ice cream sandwich" Launcher from syndicate apps (the default Froyo doesn't look attractive!) and have the usual amount of apps!

I love my Tablet but this is letting it down!

Please Help!!

Thanks
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dyverse:
Ill see if i can help but need a lil more info... are you using overclock kernels? Have you made use of compcache and/or SWAP.. also it could be the launcher slowing things down, i use launcher pro on mine and its super smooth an fast, i also would recomend maybe GOlauncher, if you like setting themes i.e ICS they are available and its fast an smooth aswell, also did you custom partition during uruk installation?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BMWPower06:
Hey guys, has anyone seen this before? I'm running 4.0.4 stock, rooted and deodexed. I customized the launcher slightly as you can see (removed search bar at the top and added the BMW logo at the bottom). It has been fine for months, now all of a sudden I am getting this. At first a reboot would fix it, but now that doesn't even seem to do it. Please help!

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
something with your launcher getting corrupted. I remember it happening back when there were alpha ports of ICS for the G2 (and similar devices).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BMWPower06:
how do i fix? do i need to find a new launcher2.apk or just reinstall my current one?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BMWPower06:
Tried reflashing my modified launcher2.apk with no luck...anyone know of any fixes?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BMWPower06:
No one has seen this before?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] memoreks:
It happens to my stock 4.0.4 nexus every now and again. I'm sorry but I don't have any answers for you, but at least you know you are not alone!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Archpope:
The troubleshooting steps I'd try would be:

1. Change fonts.

2. Install a different launcher, such as Apex or Nova.

If changing fonts doesn't fix it, and Apex doesn't have the same issue, then it's definitely the launcher. If the other launcher has the same problem, I don't know what to tell you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BMWPower06:
Just installed Apex and I'm actually happier now than before. The only thing I miss is the BMW roundel logo as my app drawer launcher icon at the button of the screen (as seen in the pic above) otherwise, it is working even better than before. Hopefully it stays this way!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BMWPower06:
It came back :/ just updated to 4.0.4 IMM76 hopefully that'll fix it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Archpope:
You can still have the BMW logo on Apex. Long-press any icon, edit, touch the icon, see your replacement options.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BMWPower06:
Awesome! Thanks :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DriVAnce:
Hello, I first wish to say that I did a basic search and didnt find any info. maybe I searched wrong since this is first time this has happend to a phone I know of.

second I don't have time to do a full extensive search, sorry if it looks like I didnt search but I did.

Anyways here to the problem:

What happend? Well the Note just died. from simple usage. the screen is all black, won't boot at all, can't even see any lights. (Got Desire HD, Tho I don't remember this phone had a charging/signal light, but I believe it has)

The Note is my mothers so she wanted me to look at it.

There were no problems during flash or, rather it wasnt me who flashed it. but got it pre-flashed of tradera (part of ebay) and nothing was wrong besides old rom, was waiting for full drivers ICS since I havn't seen one for the N7000 so I havn't flashed a ICS rom since my mother needs the most support but anyway

I tried taking the battery of and putting it back again (Fixes 90% of my problems!), I tried fail-safe booting it. I am kinda stumped on what to do, so if know whats the problem and if its a cheap one I will be happy to do it. hopefully its not a motherboard replacement... :-( then I will cry...

Edit:

It turns out it started working with 25% battery after being having battery taken out for 1 hour, and was in the wall socketed charger for 7 hours. YAY!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qsec:
So it just died in middle of using it normally?

You didn't do any wipes or such in recovery and then it didn't start after that?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hkgrob:
I am not sure there is enough detail here to be able to help. But if it does not go to download mode with the usual ways or with a USB jig, then it will need to go to samsung repair centre, or you could try to JTAG first.

But if it is a result of a bad bootloader flash, then JTAG might work. If its due to a bad ICS kernel flash, then motherboard replacement is most likely.

Hope it works out.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DriVAnce:
First of All, it doesn't have ICS yet. (since i havnt found a good kies ICS yet that everything works on yet, havnt checked the past few weeks)

Second, it died in standby mode, during work when she was gonna take a picture for her work (she has card that allows usage of camera during work place in volvo)

Third, it wasnt during flash or anything. I will have to check the phone with shidapu when he wakes up... ARGH HIM! for not having normal mornings where you wake up around 6 or 7am...

I believe it didn't die during middle of usage but when the phone was in power save or whatever its called when the screen is black and not phone in use but in operations

I guess JTAG is the only option, but how does that work exactly, if possible please do link ;)

because my computer can't even see the note when I am connected to it with USB. can the battery died? since I don't know if the note can be powered up without battery. *tried connecting without battery but no luck :/
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qsec:
Try to remove the battery for a couple of minutes and then insert it again and connect the wall socket charger and wait up to one hour. The Note has a charging animation but if the battery is totally drained i think it won't show directly.

If you having troubles finding another battery to test with you can always come by Astra in Mölndal and try mine as i see that you are living in Gothenburg.

Jtag is a service in that someone solders small cables to the mainboard and reflashes the bootloader on a low level. But this is only if you know that you have failed a flash or such, don't think this is the case here.

I did send a SGS2 to mobiletechvideos in Texas for that service, and i really do recommend them and thier great service.

Good luck.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DriVAnce:
if shidapu can't fix it that is (irl mate of Shidapu) he know a bit more than me about Droids

sadly don't have have a extra battery I believe, but I do what you said, I will pull the battery off for now, and when I see the phone next time I will put it in and wait a hour. if all above fail, I might P.M. you that i might be visiting you =)

edit, connected to a wall socket, does it make any differs if I use my HTC wall socket charger?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kunalteji1993:
umm..mind if i say something....?

well u can use any charger since u need to give charge to the battery.. but recommended is charger for note.

Next i had a problem with my battery as well. try to put the phone on charging (there ain't any charging light on this phone ) but you'll see an animation of battery. if it shows up don't worry your phones safe but not the battery but if it doesn't then i think there's some problem with the bootloader or the kernal ...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DriVAnce:
Hiya guys, after having the Note on charger for like who knows 7 hours or so...

I actually could boot it! YAY! got into the droid as usual.

But there is one wrong thing... it says 25% battery left. orange...

now it says 26% =)

Well I guess I have to reset the state of the battery? (battery-memory wipe or whatever its called?) if thats possible, if so is just simple CWM? (does Note even use CWM?, I am a HTC user and it wasnt me who rooted that device as I mentioned earlier so I dunno what recovery software there is for samsung)

Well Anyways, might be just some faulty battery. guess I have to order a new one if it does it again.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kunalteji1993:
maybe u should take the battery off the phone for a while and try to charge it without booting the device . maybe then it will work fine. just do it three or four times whenever you charge your battery. this way the battery will charge efficiently without it's use on the phone... i hope you got it since i am not able to type well today as i am right now a lil bit anxious about my notes problem
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DriVAnce:
I believe i mentioned it started working. Charging it after removed battery for a hour or so fixed it. took a long time tho, 7 hours for 25% full battery. (26% short after, well samsung are known for their extreme long battery load times... galaxy tab 10.1... that was a device that took over 2 hours to charge...)

It might need a new battery.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tdodd:
The same thing happened to my Note yesterday. It was last charged on Saturday and, with light use, after three days it still had around 50% battery charge remaining when I went to bed on Tuesday night. Yesterday (Wednesday) morning I tried to wake the Note and it was completely dead. Of course I did not expect a flat battery, given the usual discharge performance of my Note. I removed and replaced the battery and hit various buttons and absolutely zip. I connected the charger and again no response. Nothing lit, no beep, nothing.

It's probably worth mentioning that I'm on the latest stock Samsung ROM and unrooted. I really thought it was FUBAR and would need to be sent off for repair. Anyway, I do have a jig so I plugged that in and the screen woke up, so I knew there was some sign of life. But still it would not boot.

Anyway, to cut the story short the battery was as dead as a dodo. I don't know why. It should not have been. I left it on charge from the AC charger and after a short while (a minute or two maybe) the charging symbol appeared with a hazard triangle upon it. It took over 4 hours to finally make it to a fully swollen 100%. The phone is almost exactly six months old and this is the first real scare I've had with it.

I only bore you with the tale because it might give hope to people who think their phone is bricked when the fact is that nothing worse has happened than the battery has gone (unexpectedly) very flat. Right now, 27 hours after I finished fully charging it the battery is down to 92%. That's the sort of performance I am used to. I will leave it without further charge for another few days to see if a similar thing happens again. Hopefully not.
