[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alteredlikeness:
You either have to edit the .9.png files with the draw9patch.bat file located in \android-sdk\tools.. and copy basically the pixel borders - put up two windows side by side - one stock and the one you are editing. And make sure you only have one new copy of that file in your drawable folder when done.. no normal .png's of the same name.

Or you could just "borrow" those .9.png files from another rom and use GIMP to basically edit the color only and save... just don't decompile them - use 7zip instead.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
Editing a .9 png like that is not the prper way to do it. He will just have issues if he tries to decompile it again. This is why alot o themes break when people try to decompile them to learn.

Take some time out OP and learn how to do it properly. The easy way is never right.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alteredlikeness:
Which way is not proper? The 2nd suggestion was not intended to be a proper way, but it can work.. and the first way I suggested is what I would consider a good way to learn how to draw the patches - by comparison with known working ones..

EDIT - please elaborate on the not being able to decompile it again later though - I was aware of this issue and had come across it - but never new the cause.

EDIT 2 - I just noticed your stats - please share your seasoned wisdom... I have got a lot to learn yet...

Ok, i have a better way to do what i want, i jzut want to edif bools.xml inside values folder, so ill apply default theme, decompile and edit, and then i replace it.

Thanks to all who helped me!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
The bools XML will be over writted when you flash the theme.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
Ok the 1 px boarder around the image has to be the last thing applied to an image. You can edit it with gimp and 7zip but that breaks the border settings. This is the reason most .9.pngs break when decompiled.

My Sensation 4G gets really hot on the bottom front and back, assuming thats where the cpu is. Its been doing this since i first got it, and it burns my hand thats how bad it is. Any help would be appreciated.
[HTC Sensation] flare4000:
This is a known issue with sensations I had mine for awhile and it still heats up, even on stock. When this happens don't worry just let your phone rest for a bit.
[HTC Sensation] Airo18:
Thanks, really weird it gets that hot though. And i usually do put it down for a few minutes and it cools back down.
[HTC Sensation] Akatosh:
Try to reduce the brightness to about 50% and also install leedroid techniques and turn off the capacitive buttons, you can still use them but the lights won't turn on. This helped me to reduce ny heat a lot.

I attempted to use the multitouch kernel with clockwork mod after rooting my glowlight and for some reason it seems to have hosed the glowlight controls completely. I was hoping that the n2t recovery by ros87 would help but the server hosting the image is not working. Does anyone have a mirror of the image?

EDIT: In my panic I didn't check the entire thread and found a dropbox mirror of the file further on in the thread. Let this serve as a warning to first stay calm and also not to attempt multitouch on the NTG. Sorry if I wasted your time.
[Nook Touch General] eded333:
Here you go.

Just wait for a NTG modded kernel, dont use the device specific resources for the NST.
[Nook Touch General] Schneicw:
Thanks for the quick response and the advice which I will be sure to remember. Any idea how long it's going to take to port multitouch to the NTG
[Nook Touch General] GabrialDestruir:
It'll take about the amount of time for whoever brought multitouch to the Nook Simple Touch to download the source for NTG and then make the appropriate changes. That's if they even care.
[Nook Touch General] mali100:
Hi,

the kernel in the attachment should work for the NTG. I patched it a month ago and totally forgot to upload it :cool: .

Works also on the normal NST.

The zip file includes only the kernel, its not flashable by cwm, you have to push it manually to your boot partition and add the permissions in the xml-file.

Git-Repository: https://github.com/mali1/NST-kernel_115
[Nook Touch General] Schneicw:
Thank you. Is it possible to replace the uimage in the original CWM zip with this one and do the same thing as for the nst or should I follow the directions in the original thread which if I understand right involves burning noogie to an sdcard then then booting the nook up, connecting it to a computer, finding uimage and replacing it.
[Nook Touch General] mali100:
Yes, that should work.

[Nook Touch General] nrseife:
>>you have to push it manually to your boot partition and add the permissions in the xml-file

Using Root Explorer, where do I have to copy the (extracted kernel) file to (exact path/folder)?

Add permissions: Can I do that in Root Explorer rather than opening the xml file (filename?)? I do not have an editor for xml files....(which one would you recommend if I cannot change the permissions directly using Root Explorer)?

Thanks!

Glowlight not working

Hello,

I have a problem with my Nook Simple Touch Glowlight that I hoped you could help me with.

I rooted it and it was working fine. Then, I tried to add the multitouch mod, but I think it was for the NST, and now the glowlight doesn't work at all. I did not have a backup, unfortunately. I tried doing a factory reset and rerooting, but when it gets to the "try the glowlight" part of the setup. I can't go any further because the light doesn't work. How do I fix this problem?

Thanks,

Joe
[Nook Touch General] rgraville:
Glow + multitouch + Norefresh?

After rooting my Glow I downloaded and installed the .zip I found in another thread to enable multi touch and an APK that was to enable NoRefresh. The norefresh didnt work at all and the multi touch worked but killed the glowlight. Now I understand what happened, but basically i ended up with the kernal for the NST that enabled Multitouch.

After downloading and ADB pushing the the kernal that has both Glow and MultiTouch I am satisfied but not completely happy. I would really want the addition of norefresh but I have not been able to find a kernal that has all three.

USB host would not be a bad thing to have also, as long as it doesn't hose the battery life. It isn't a required component for my needs.
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
I've been looking around to see who has been working on this.

As mentioned elsewhere, EpdController has been changed in 1.2 which will break anything designed to play with Epd modes.

I've no experience or real interest in "NoRefresh" since for what I want

it's better to integrate Epd control at the application level, which I do.
[Nook Touch General] rgraville:
Oh, I should have mentioned. I am at 1.1.5. I used Glownooter because I wanted the Market access, utilizing the Search Market tool. As far as I could tell, the rooting methods that work on 1.2 don't include Market capability.

If I could update to 1.2 and keep market that would be cool. It might be that any dev work has been scrapped for 1.1.5 as that is an old version.
[Nook Touch General] elsita:
here is multitouch for nook glowlight, it is in zip format for installing with CWM, I made it changing the uimage file for the rigth one in the NST CWM zip file from the first post

I have tried it in my nook glow with firmware 1.2, spanish language, and previously rooted with glownooter, I had installed too the norefresh toggle previously, it works like a charm with opera browser, and of course light is working

I installed it after previously have done with the no glow version and having lost my light, so it works also as an amendment to this failure

[Nook Touch General] soolcio:
I do not have NTG for now but I may order one soon for 49 pounds in Argos UK as a spare reader

Than I will try to do some hacking but I am still unexperienced in Nook reader so I'd better somebody more experienced try and post the results.
[Nook Touch General] Mnurlan:
Turned out I have W1.2.0 on my NSTGL (you can't just look in Setup on my nook it will say unknown (uninstalled all B&N apps) - I've looked in buildprop. or something like that. Installed Multitouch for NSG using CWM - works fine and Glowlight works (turns on and off) as should - long pressing the "n" button, I don't need any NoRefresh or FastMode.
[Nook Touch General] soolcio:
Dear Mnurlan,

Could you please tell me which solution did you use to root your Nook with Glowlight? Was it either NookManager or GlowNooter?

I have mine rooted using NookManager running fw 1.20 and I do not know if I can replace kernel by booting CWM from the microSD card and then replacing the multitouch kernel. I bought my Nook yesterday so I am not yet fully familiar with all the solutions and tricks.

Thanks for advance,

I don't think that rooting methods matter anything in this case. I've rooted my NSTGL FW1.2.0 using this magic wand: http://dropme.net/zln, never had any problems, so I believe you can just follow elsita's advice above, good luck.
[Nook Touch General] Crispy3000:
Looks like that kernel is built from 1.1.5 sources. Which should work but could be better.

Would be nice to have a 1.2.1 kernel supporting glowlight and multitouch with sdcard fix applied.........

I would be interested in this too. My copilot GPS for example has about 1.4GB or because of the built in maps. I used the App2SD app on my previous GB version of this tablet to free up space and would like to move this over at some point.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] samaz:
Maybe the app2sd can not resolve your problems about it, I think app2sd just can move files inside apk to your extsdcard but no other files like the files download when the game run first time.

but you can make it by using scriptManger which can mount internal folders to extsdcard .

use Directory Bind. It's on play store.
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] AlexM555:
Also try GL to SD(Root) if you are rooted... it's in the Play Store.... It was designed to move Gameloft datafiles to the ExtSDCard but other users have discovered that it also moves other game data files as well.

Hi guys,

Googled for this extensively, found so many conflicting answers.

I'm writing a free app to publish on the Google Play market. In the app, on the about page, I have a PayPal donate button that simply acts as a web link to the PayPal donate page for my merchant account. The donation will be STRICTLY voluntary, and will not unlock ANY new functionality. I've also emailed Google to ask them, but I don't expect a reply anytime soon. Any idea if we're allowed to do this? I know the Google Play T&C state that you cant charge for a free app by doing an in-app donate to a PayPal (or any other) payment gateway, but since this is a purely voluntary non-mandatory donation LINK, wouldn't it be okay?

It may not be as good as google.

BTW, you can use google with the site: directive

Rom manager SCH-I800 site:http://xdaforums.com/

But I think TheATHEiST is right. ROM Manager doesn't support any of Galaxy Tab 7 variant.

Basically if ROM Manager does't find your device, it is not supported.

And don't you try to flash other device's ROM into it.

It may be hard to get out from it. Once the bootloader is screwed, you have a brick.

[Acer Iconia A500] meduza:
To help you I need first some information about your tab. First,what android version is installed on your tab? The best backup will be with CWM but then you need root.

Of course you could connect your tab to the PC via USB and copy everything to your HDD. But I think here you need root as well to be able to see the system folders... .

[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
A paradox.

You can't save your current rom in it's native form unless you root. And you can't save it, unless you install a custom recovery. And even then, you're saving a modified OS that if you restore, will be modified. So a paradox.

So if you want to root, and install roms, you'll just have to suck it up like everybody else ;)

Fortunately, lots of methods to revert back to stock in case needed.

So, you either take the plunge, or stay stock.
[Acer Iconia A500] Vintage144:
Not only that but most Big Box stores dont have a clue and rarely look at it anyway ,unless you tell them its something you did (which would void the warranty) . But for me personally I void warranty within a few hours on everything I get , if its electronic they always take it back , I wouldnt worry about it , run a bunch of stress tests for a couple days if the components are sound ,it will complete them no problem , then root away and have fun!

Thank you all for your replies! :D I can honestly say, I can happily root my device without a worry now. But I have a couple of things I'd like to ask, for one. What is a cpu ID?
