[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ancilary:
hey guys

i m planning to cook my own rom and i need some help here.

i m planning to build my custom rom based on CM and aokp

i wanted to know about this : it has gappas, i have to edit only base rom right? i dont have to touch gapps if i dont want to theme it ? am i correct?

and i just started learning it , so i m using kitchen

thanks for your time
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demoneyes905:
Yes that is correct. The UI framework that android uses is in the base ROM or system. Gapps just contains the assortment of Google applications that cannot be added into major ROMs directly due to licensing issues (since CM/AOKP source is GPL and Google apps are proprietary). This is why CM/AOKP provide gapps but do not bake into their ROMs from the get go.

Hope I helped!:)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kev_cr:
Think u can make gapps native to your own rom...I've been doing this from far now and never had any problems...the thing is CM can't include them,you're not cm...anyway you can theme as much as you like them,but will have to make your own zip path for users...it's not as difficult as it sounds, you can even take meta-inf from original path and just compile and sign it

I was trying to connect my D4 with the leaked ICS ROM though adb

but after typing adb shell, it keep telling my device was offline

if i can connect the device, is it possible to push the busybox, su, etc to /system/xbin and enabling the root privilege?:confused:
[Motorola Droid 4] podspi:
Can't help you with actually rooting the build (sorry), but I have seen other threads that seem to indicate that if you reinstall your drivers the problem should resolve itself...
[Motorola Droid 4] twizzles:
Where is the leaked rom?
[Motorola Droid 4] bdsullivan:
all the info on the leaked d4 ics is @ DROID forums. in the d4 development section.
[Motorola Droid 4] twizzles:
Thank you
[Motorola Droid 4] pimpsalot69:
no luck anyone? i really want root back.....I love everything about this update i just want my root back please!!!!!
[Motorola Droid 4] problematic:
I can point you in the right direction. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1467598 I think if we knew the correct hex values to change in the .bat we might be able to get root.
[Motorola Droid 4] disablewong:
It seems the problem i face now is i cannot push the files to the phone as permission denied.....or device offline....i actually could even push su to /data/local

which render other commands useless.....

Per p3droid twitter:

@P3Droid R U A Moto fan, then this is exciting news, @djrbliss just created a new universal root for the new 4.0.4 leaks.

Im not sure if it was posted yet.
[Motorola Droid 4] bdbraaten:
The last posts I saw from him said it's not posted yet. He posted it's been tested on the D4 as well. So it shouldn't be much longer.
[Motorola Droid 4] dewhashish:

[Motorola Droid 4] pimpsalot69:
How did you get root please help me!
[Motorola Droid 4] twizzles:
Voodoo after fastboot. Then had root after flashing the leaked ics
[Motorola Droid 4] detox702:
pimpsalot69: He was referring to getting it installed, not getting root. Unfortunately, if you lost root during the upgrade process (like I did) there isn't currently a way to restore it. You'll have to wait for a new method to be released.

Please Help root Droid 4 ICS

I have the same problem - am happy to pay someone to help me root (I am roaming international and now cannot apply the GSM patch).
[Motorola Droid 4] GermanGuy:
I thought the GSM patch is automatically enabled on the ICS ROM? All you have to do is put in your foreign SIM card and you should be ready to go.
[Motorola Droid 4] pimpsalot69:
yea i saw that afterward I guess I just got excited, thanx
[Motorola Droid 4] wreuvers:
Can't access foreign data, but voice works.

It doesn't seem to work - I put in the foreign SIM and can make and receive calls without an issue. But no 3G data available (and I have set all the data roaming, etc. on in settings). If I had root access, then I could try to flash that rom to see if it worked. I'm in South Africa on the Vodacom network (3G).
[Motorola Droid 4] GermanGuy:
I don't think Root access is going to help you here. Are you sure you have your apn configured correctly?
[Motorola Droid 4] Die Bruine:
I honestly find it hard to believe that 3g does not work on ICS. I take it you are unable to flash ICS? If so fastboot stock, then try ICS. If you already are on ICS, your apn must be badly configured. Try that first. Manually enter all the correct parameters and try again.
[Motorola Droid 4] danifunker:
You might need to setup your APN properly. Give that a try and let us know. You might need to check your carrier's site for more info

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Domiel:
So I repartitioned my media and storage drives yesterday, and although I did have a few problems (post #156-158) I finally managed to repartition and proceeded mounting the drives in 1.4.1 rooted B&N. Also checked if they worked via usb to computer which they did. I then decided that I wanted to try cm7 today and installed it flawlessly. Only problem is that now my newly resized 10GB internal media partition don't show up. So tried installing the;

[CM7][GB] Soft-mod RibbonICS ROM by veronica, but still no change.

In the storage settings i've tried to mount the

Additional storage/mnt/sdcard/_internalSD but doesen't work and thats probably also just the folder I created myself as instructed in the soft-mod.

So yeah I'm wondering if I can only use the extended media part in stock rooted B&N or if its got to do with the problems I had with the process. Or mayb I just need to mount the media drive somewhere?

Please help

Went into adb-shell in CWM and checked via the p command if the media drive was there which is was

(looked like this: 10 1611MB 11.6GB 9989MB fat32 media msftres)...so it really should work.....shouldn't it?

Edit: actually the above is not entirely correct: I have found my media partition in the file browser now but its just not really accessible it seems. Is it just not mounted or what?

Included in the soft-mod for cm7 is also an application called multi-mount sd lite which should help with this but it force-closes on me even after i fix permissions :( need help with this..
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] kingtechmartyn:
nook tablet cm7 can not access internall sd

Hi

I loaded cm7 onto my nook tablet 16g internal SD using your latest Zip and it worked like a charm. Thank everybody.

only problem I have is that I can't access the internal SD from my windows computer. It accesses the external one fine but not the internal one.

can download app into internal via web and brows around it.

It doesn't seem to be mounted for external USB access.

Can anyone help with this?

Thanks Martyn
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] bernardicus:
There's a typo in two lines of the build.prop. Described here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1540272&referrerid=4611244

But the link to the corrected build.prop there doesn't work! There's a good link further down the thread...but I attached mine here if you want to use it.

Just download to the root of your removable sdcard and install it from CWM. Or extract it and copy it to /system with your favorite file explorer to overwrite the "typo" version.

EDIT: by "mine" I mean my copy of Celtic's.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] bernardicus:
OOPS!

Sorry. My reply above was to kingtechmartyn, not the OP domiel...didn't mean to hijack the thread.

Very sorry.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] tmjohnsonfse:
Just remember when changing build.prop to always make a backup of the original so if you want to revert you can.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Cubanluke88:
I don't know if its specific to root explorer or not, but whenever I modify a build.prop that I have navigated to via root explorer, it automatically adds a .bak extension to the original build.prop file.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] old_fart:
for an edit of build.prop, be sure to use the correct edit tool which places a 'line feed' at the eol and not a 'carriage return and line feed'.

hth.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Demetris:
Normal
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] tmjohnsonfse:
you are right, normally a backup is automatically created. But, I have seen a lot of requests since November when we started messing with this device of people making mistakes and not having a backup. So it is always a good idea to copy and then save to the sd card just in case.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Cubanluke88:
Well to be quite honest, before you make any sort of system modifications, you should always make a nandroid backup.

Having a backup of the build.prop or whatever file is nice because it allows you to quickly revert. But a nandroid backup protects you from when the damn thing decides to temp brick.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] RhinoNelson:
build prop differences

Also be aware that the build prop typo correction from the Team B CM 7 release (and I believe the RC2 release from a different source I cannot remember) is different from the mods Veronica released - she has developed her own build prop to handle the internal storage. I also had problems with the included Multi Mount SD Card Lite included in her mod and purchased the full version for $.99 which corrected the problems. Also note that there is an underline before _InternalSD in the full release of her mod which is different from just the small mod that handles the Internal over External SD card. Make sure you are being consistent with the folder name you create with the mod version you have installed.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] tmjohnsonfse:
exactly, if more people would do this there might be fewer issues due to being able to restore if there is a oops moment.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] kingtechmartyn:
Hi Bernardicus

Thanks heaps you are a champion!

I don't even know how to get terminal into su yet so you zip was a god send.

Now I have to work out how to enlarge the 1g of memory, i must admit it's very fulfilling modifying my Nook, looking forward to be proficient enough to return the favors from you all.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] bernardicus:
Absolutely correct. I'm running her ribbon ics mod now on top of the Team B CM7 ROM (and loving it). She also modded the vold.fstab in /system/etc to reflect those changes in build.prop. I ended up replacing her vold.fstab with the Team B version and editing her build.prop to reflect the corrected "typos" in the Team B build.prop. (I know, I de-modded the mod, but for some reason, using the multi mount widget to do something that the OS should handle made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up!)

I'm spending more time modifying this thing that actually using it! But it has been fun.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] alanjames72:
I'm running Veronica's NT_CM7_Ribbon_ICS_v2.1 and I have the same problem. I replaced her vold.fstab with the Team B version and edited her build.prop. Now I can mount the Internal SD on my computer. Thanks for the help.

so, i got my One S, and i love it. except for one thing. the sim cover didn't come fully off when i got it, and i couldn't figure get it on again when i finally got if off, and now it's a little wobbly. not alot, but i can definitely feel it. sometimes i can click it in a bit. should i try removing it and then put it back on? i'm afraid it will only make the situation worse. thanks in advance. cheers :D

Hello,

I got my phone the Samsung galaxy s (I9003) now for almost a year and since a week now, it’s been automatically resetting itself when I go to bed in the evening and I leave it on for my morning alarm. What happens is that even if it is completely full on battery when I go the bed, in the morning the battery is completely empty and when I turn it on, I have to reconfigure all my phone settings.

Does anyone maby know a solution to this problem?

thx

Was wondering if it is safe to restore NAND backup that was made with CM9 on CM9 recovery? :)

1st i installed CM9

2nd i made backup

3th i want to change DPI but if something goes wrong can i back up via CM9 or do i have to flash GB and CM9 and start again?

I heard that CM9 is "safe"
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neomatt:
I'm wondering too, since I wanted to try MIUI (based on CM9) from CM9, and was thinking of doing a backup if MIUI doesn't do it for me.

My guess is that it's "safe", since once you installed CM9 with the proper instructions (from GB and all), you have a proper CWM, buuuut a second opinion would help. :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SoonHD2:
True that. Well at least BackUp went fine but still have no balls to try restore it. And was wondering also that should i install abyssrecovery (red touch) or can i use stock CWM on CM9...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sotiris20:
In my opinion it's safe guys. The problem with the procedures in CWM was mostly caused by Wipes. Also the cf-root kernel was definitely something to be afraid.

Therefore in CM9s' CWM there's nothing harmful.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neomatt:
Well, since MIUI didn't flash (I need to look more into this), I grabbed my balls and tried the whole backup + restore thing, with the "stock" CWM. :)

And it all went fine. No loss of data, booting up into CM9 like before, all set.

So it's safe.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sotiris20:
The theory is true again!!! :D

I told you, there was nothing dangerous there.

hi.

i want to migrate about 20k sms from a sgs1 @ darky/semaphore to my new nexus @ aokp/franco.

testing several apps and tools, effect is always the same:

backup finished, 10k unread sms displayed and when i want to open them, there are no conversations and it wants to refresh for an endless time.

i used sms backup/restore, myphoneexplorer, titanium backup, my backup, yaffs extractor and a manual copy of the mmssms.db...nothing worked for me.

strange:

i tested the sms debugging script by Honusnap and after that, i could access all sms.

but because of an error, i could not send sms anymore.

http://www.theverge.com/2012/5/16/3024854/htc-one-x-multitasking-operating-sense

I was wondering if Sense 3.6 does this also? I am still on Android 2.3, Sense 3.0 stock. Not that I can multitask much anyway because I have less than 100mb free and Sense keeps reloading and killing all my apps.

If Sense 3.6 does not have this, will you guys still want Sense 4.0 if HTC ever release it for our phones?

No I don't think Sense 3.6 has such an aggressive task killer.

I'd still want Sense 4.0 as the task killing aggressiveness can be adjusted I believe.

Hi,

I have bought a Samsung i777 mobile phone from EEUU (Im from Spain), It has the LCD Broken so I replace it with my i9100 LCD that works (My old i9100 was water damage), everything works fine but.....

The home button of my i9100 LCD doesn't work!!, I have seen that original i777 screen not have a physical home button, so I think this issue could some thing that a ROM or similar can fix.

I need some help with this, If anyone knows how to make the button works I'll be very thankful.

Thanks!

PD: Sorry for my really bad english xD
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Phalanx7621:
Yer looking for a way to remap your button keys? There is an app for that. Or I could be misunderstanding what yer asking.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sdavidone:
That could be a solution but first I wanted to know if there are some way for use the home button without remaping :S

Whats the name of the app??
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MotoMudder77:
So i9100 LCD in an i777.

i9100 has physical home key.

i777 has 4 capacitive buttons.

i9100 lcd is way different than i777 because of the physical key.

Thats really a long shot man, if at all possible.

Iim sure you can get the two capacitive keys on the i9100 screen working, but the physical key.......
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sdavidone:
Now everything works well but only the home button :(

If I flash a i9100 ICS room will work??
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MotoMudder77:
Did the i9100 LCD have the physical button attached?

If so then basically you have an i777 mobo, in an i9100.

Flashing an i9100 ROM, will actually screw up some things, like the mic will be reversed with the noise canceling one. we have a workaround for this.

But basically you need a ported i9100 ROM, minus the button remaping.

You could do that yourself, somewhere around these forums is a guide/post for info on remaping the keys.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sdavidone:
Yes it has the home button attached :)

So...

I need to use a i9100 room ported to i777, and work around the button remaping to get the home button working?

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MotoMudder77:
exactly. undo the remaping of the key's, should be the only thing you have to undo.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sdavidone:
Some help doing the remapping? I have searched but not found nothing clear :S
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MotoMudder77:
Yea its something that has gotten lost since we no longer have to use it everyday to flash i9100 ROM's like we did in the past.

keep searching around, and I'll do the same.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] howtomen:
ill give u a file with the remapping but what ive been thinking about is doesnt the home button need a special connection in the original phone that isnt available in the i777? like some connection to the hardware?

im not an expert but for the button remapping i can help u.

ur only solution in my opinion would be to flash an i9100 rom and flash one of our kernels. and maybe it will work. otherwise theres nothing in button remapping for the physical buttons. as this is all in the i9100 mappings:

key 158 BACK	WAKE

key 139 MENU	WAKE

key 115 VOLUME_UP	WAKE

key 114 VOLUME_DOWN	WAKE

key 102 HOME WAKE

key 107 ENDCALL

key 105 DPAD_LEFT

key 106 DPAD_RIGHT

key 103 DPAD_UP

key 108 DPAD_DOWN

key 232 DPAD_CENTER

key 116 POWER WAKE

key 212 CAMERA WAKE
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sdavidone:
Thanks for help everyone :)!

Now I'll try flashing i9100 rom, I have notice that there is a conector in the middle frame from i9100 that i777 doesnt have but I get succes changing also the middle frame from my old i9100 to i777, now I have notice that I can get the download mode by pressing vol. down + home (physical) button + Power, so this mean that home button is recognized and working right??

Some advice with the room to install?? we are closer to get it! Thanks guys!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nick281051:
Not necessarily on this phone holding the home button isn't necessary.
