This is pretty much just to help you further customize your device and make it more yours. But it could serve to feed the flashaholic in you lol.

If you give me the mods you want made I will make you a zip file and upload it for you.
[HTC Sensation] irrelephant:
And that is why you are off the chain! I will just wait until I set up my new system Dual boot and do it then... but THANKS FOR THE OFFER :)
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
Really man it would be no trouble to make one for you it takes no time to make one, just let me know.

Also I updated the OP with a Hboot 1.27.1111 .dll plugin for those of you with the Hboot 1.27.1111. If you have a different Hboot version just let me know and I will make another .dll plugin.
[HTC Sensation] xtcislove:
im just waiting for some reviews :P
[HTC Sensation] scotty1223:
i appreciate the work that has gone into this,but i personally its a bad idea to mess with hboots. a bad flash will leave you with an expensive paperweight,not to mention that if a user visually chagnes his hboot to locked its quite possible that he could forget,or a differnet user could writesecureflag 3,leaving the device useless.

while i can appreciate wanting to customize all partitions of ones phone,there are some pretty serious risks involved here.

just my 2 cents :)
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
You are very right anything involving flashing of the Hboot has a certain higher level of risk, and all users should be vary aware of what they are doing. That is why I wrote a detailed post about this mod. It is also why I place both of the following in the OP.

Also to be fair any flashing has it's fair share of risk to render a device usless. Recovery could for some odd reason get stuck and possibly nuke one of the patition. Or a wipe could go bad and leave you with a un flashable device. For example the not to long ago bug in AOSP and AOKP ROMs that actually formatted the internal memory of the device when you choose to re format your SD card via your device and in the ROM resulting in a hard bricked device and only JTAG to fix it.

Also if someone is actually stupid enough to not flash a stock RUU before doing "fastboot oem writesecureflag 3" is lucky enough to have the HTC Unbrick Project that they may be able to resurrect their device with. Point being though is that if you are reading this thread or on XDA at all for that matter you have already excepted the fact that what you are doing is dangerous.

Now if the camera worked better on HD2 running ICS I would post a screen shot of my Hboot screen, and asking my ole lady to use here phone is out of the question, not ridding that storm again. I have used the first .dll plugin I posted, the 1.27.1100 one. And my device is perfectly fine. Also like I said before to make new .dll's I only have to change the Hboot version that is referenced in one line and make the file. So this is as safe as it can be made, and regaw_leinad has stated he has made this as safe as possible.

In closing if you want to use this mod you do so at your own risk, but I have tested it on my device and it works.

Not being on a stock Hboot/non modified Hboot and using "fastboot oem writesecureflag 3" will soft brick your device cuase it screws up the Hboot some how, Don't ask me how but it does, but this is somethingmy friend dexter93 could explain further.
[HTC Sensation] memnoc:
Oh ok, I thought that someone should do "fastboot oem writesecureflag 3" before flash a ruu to return in a "stock condition" that's why I asked, thx for the explanation anyway;) and for the op I think it shouldn't be more clear than this, and yes you're right when report those examples of recovery fault that bricked a ton of devices, I remember hundreds DHD bricked in just one day, on the other hand I've never ever heard about someone who bricked a phone flashing something in bootloader since froyo 2.1:)

Ok I was just reading through some threads and check out this recovery thread, and I come across the below post on the first page posted only a week ago.. Really dude, I got to say I found it very comical.
[HTC Sensation] Pavelol:
very good stuff!, just tested and worked great.

can you plz tell me how to add marks\signs like in the REVO's hboot ~Revolutionary~
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
To be honest I am not quit sure what you mean. But if you are talking about the "Banner Text" then just type in what you want it to display there and make a zip, then flash the zip.
[HTC Sensation] dexter93:
heh.. a "tool" to do automatically what we've been doing manually with hex editors. Something completely pointless, just for showing off

and before anyone asks, dont turn s-on with that hboot. flash a RUU to return to an official one
[HTC Sensation] tessut:
I would say a noob friendly tool :D
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
Yep I had to use a hex editor to get the values to put in the plugin, that was actually the hardest part cause I had to learn how to use one. Yeah you are right it is just for showing off but you got to admit it is cool you can do it lol. Oh and about flashing a RUU before reverting to S-ON I will add the flash a "stock RUU" to it but I have the below in the OP already.
[HTC Sensation] dexter93:
i'd change that to : " you can fake your s-off to s-on, but you wont be s-on"

and stress that it wont be s-on. thats needed to avoid confusion. s-on/off flag isnt "just" a display on the bootloader screen
[HTC Sensation] Stephen:
Does "fastboot oem writesecureflag 3" only become a problem if you dont have super cid?

I thought if you have super cid, "fastboot oem writesecureflag 3" only changes the bootloader back to s-on but you could still run any rom? But if you had a vodaphone cid for example and had a non vodaphone rom then ran "fastboot oem writesecureflag 3" that is where you would run into problems.
[HTC Sensation] memnoc:
Hey Ghost;) Well, I don't need this, I was just asking cause I'm damn curious lol we should definitely ask Dexter? But we're ot I guess, let's pm me if you got some doubts ok? Sorry op :rolleyes:

[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
S-OFF gives you write permissions on all of your partitions. If you revert to S-ON yes you need to be on the correct stock ROM for your device flashed via RUU, which means you will have a stock Hboot again. If you are super CID you still will not be able to flash custom ROMs because you do not have right permissions on any partition. Just know this, if you ever have to revert to S-ON via "fastboot oem writesecureflad 3", by all means flash the correct carrier specific stock ROM for your device via RUU before doing this. Again someone like dexter93 can probably give a much better analogy of what S-OFF is, he is part of unlimited.io.
[HTC Sensation] memnoc:
So what you say is: if you want to use "fastboot oem writesecureflad 3" you must flash your "original" ruu (for ex it's a TIM branded one for me (TIM is an Italian provider) then use the fastboot command to change the bootloader display from "set-off" to "set-on", right? Otherwise the ruu won't be flashed correctly?

Inviato dal mio HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e con Tapatalk 2
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
What I mean is before you use the fastboot command to revert back to S-ON staus you need to flash the correct stock software via RUU to your device before you use the command. And after you use the command re flash the RUU just for safety precautions. I bases all of this from the below quote from the "[Guide] to Installing S-off, Unlocking, ClockWork, Root, SuperCID & S-on" thread.
[HTC Sensation] memnoc:
Definitely clear, very useful to know, thx a lot mate;)

[HTC Sensation] scotty1223:
im not sure whats comical about it. you can fastboot flash and fastboot boot with an unlocked hboot.like the radio secure flag, the "lock status flag" doesnt change unless you very purposely do it,so each time i run an ruu with a different hboot,its allready unlocked and ready to fastboot flash a recovery. i dont care if my sensation hboot ever says locked again,so for me its a good solution.

like i said: i appreciate the work and effort youve put in so folks can customize their phones,and i dont doubt that it works,and is as safe as you can possible make it, but im entitled to my opinion,wich still is that this is a bad idea. its one thing for somewhat experineced users to modify and flash new hboots for fun,but totally another when folks start using your tool to make devices look stock,so they can be sent back to their carriers or htc.

do you think any carrier or htc has the time to thuroughly inspect every device that comes in for minute details that it may have been modified? alot of these will find their way right back out to the general public,potentially resulting in bricks and/or confusion.

again it wasnt a personal attack on you,so thicken your skin up so you can take some constructive criticism.no matter what disclaimers you put up,the fact is that your tool will potentially help people fraud their carriers,rather than correctly unrooting.
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
What I found comical is you stating, "its a bad idea to mess with hboots. a bad flash will leave you with an expensive paperweight," in your post here. But I find a post where you say, "i just got tired of re-installing eng hboots everytime i ran an ruu". Do you see the irony?

I am sorry you interpreted this tool as something meant to, "start using your tool to make devices look stock,so they can be sent back to their carriers or htc." This is not at all what this is meant for, this tool is meant to be fun and a extended way for power users to customize their device. This is totally meant as a novilty not has something to try and foul carriers and OEM's for warranty purposes. I guess I will have to add further warnings and info on this subject even though I tryied to make it clear in the OP that this is not adviced to use this for warranty work.

Well I can almost assure you the first step a OEM tech takes when a returned unit comes in is check for any modding done to the unit, the process probably only takes a minute or two and they probably have a way to test multipule units at one time. The OEM's are going to try to void warranty if they can, trust me, and I do mean every unit. Plus when a device is refurbed it leaves out with total stock software on it to be resold. So if, as you say, "alot of these will find their way right back out to the general public"' it will be because of Ebay and similar sites. Plus I have no control over what others do with their device or other peoples not making responsible decisions. Regretably I know what you are saying is bond to happen, but again I nor you can be held responsible for others decisions.

Ass far as thick skin goes I have plenty of it, I will leave it at that as any further conversation about it will only lead down a bad path. Again you misunderstand what I posted, I was not posturing a attack on you, nor am I now. You said above that you have a right to your opinion, well that is a two way street i have the right to mine as well.

Now this part is not directed as a personal attack, it is a generalized statement. As far as, "frauding carriers", I frankly could give a crap less about the carriers or OEM's their bank accounts are huge and get bigger everyday. Carriers and OEM's continually rape us/you "the comsumer" so why should you care about them being done dirty. They certainly do not care about you, they just care about your money and how to get more of it out of you.
[HTC Sensation] scotty1223:
no,i dont really see the irony. since the comment was that i unlocked my hboot to avoid unnessary flashes ;) i see you looking for posts ive made looking for something to criticize ;)

i did not interpret your tool as something intended for bad uses. but that wont stop folks from using it that way. i am as annoyed as anyone with recent cahnges in my phone bill,but still,fraud hurts us in the long run and drives up the price of phones.

verizon has admitted that they do absolutely no checks of returned devices for signs of being rooted. they check for:

1)the overall condition of the shipping packaging

2)that the device powers on(or doesnt)

3)the overall physical condition of the device(scratched case,screen,etc.).

rooted phones have made it back out as refurbs. maybe vzw is unique in this lack of concern since they are a large carrier,but its something to think about. i used to think each device was inspected thuroughly,polished up,and new software pushed. i was pretty suprised to learn it wasnt the case.

this was just intended to give you something else to think about. you might consider eliminating the option for the user to change the security status. one can customize the banner,etc. but make the device stay s-off. in all honesty,why would anyone even want to cahgne their s-off to s-on,other than for some sort of fraud? devs have worked hard to give us radio s-off,so why would you want your hboot to display s-on again? personally it makes me smile every time i see s-off in the hboot screen... no way id chagne it! forcing the user to leave s-off on the hboot screen would go a long way to keep users getting modded phones on ebay or as refurbs from having a bad experience.
[HTC Sensation] Pavelol:
well..., i was an idiot enough to try editing hboot.img with notepad++ and it worked like a charm :D

if you are editing carefully the right props in the hboot, there shouldn't be a problem at all.

i'm still in shock, where the hell i got the balls to do it :silly:
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
I understand where you are coming from man, and I have added more to the disclaimer in the OP as well as made it a little more attention grabbing so users will see it and hopefully read it. I will be honest I did not know about Verizon's statement but all I can say is careful what you take as fact from "public statements". Corporations are full of lies and deceit, and will flip their words around in a heart beat to make it apply as they want. Rooted and modified devices making it back out on the market is probably from shady deals with what I will call non reputable dealers so big companies can recoup some cost from returns. And in that scenario I can see why a carrier or OEM would not care to test units as these deals are probably not public domain. Yes I know I have a shady view of the world but that is because I know the world is shady. But as I said I added more to the disclaimer and that is all I can do.
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
Ha well yes you can do that, but the correct way would have been to use a Hex Editer, but this mod makes it much easier and safer.
[HTC Sensation] heavy_metal_man:

[HTC Sensation] Hitorijanae:

[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
Hmm if you put the RegawMOD Bootloader Customizer.exe and the HTCPyramid.dll file in the same folder and then run the RegawMOD Bootloader Customizer.exe. When you click on "Create Zip" it should make the zip file in that folder. Not trying to be a smart a$$ but you did click on "Create Zip" right?
[HTC Sensation] silverspoon80:
i'm not 'strictly' linux but x2 on that

regardless though, that's one great mod, OP.
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
I will have to ask regaw_leinad if he plans on making the cusomizer compatible with Linux. If he does not I will see if I can come up with a solution are maybe try my hand at converting it to linux. No promises though.
[HTC Sensation] regaw_leinad:
Just found this thread haha. I'm subscribed to it now, so if there are any questions, feel free to ask away. I do plan on compiling it at some point against the Mono framework for mac/linux support. I've just been super busy and haven't had the time to update any of my xda projects lately.

And seriously? Enough bickering lol Just don't use the tool if you don't believe in it and move on. And yes I realize this is an old thread ;)
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
Thanks for coming in and posting regaw_leinad, I hope you are pleased with the thread here. Also thanks for the comment about bricking.

I have been looking for some way you allow Linux users to use this tool in a virtual enviroment but with no luck. So you adding linux support would be great man, sadly I do not have the skill to do it myself yet.
[HTC Sensation] jmcclue:
Alright buddy, sorry to bumb this thread but i got myself a sensation and used this tool, cool as f**k haha, gave thanks to u and to Regaw. This is why i got the sensation, prob one of the best phones to FULLY costomize to make it ur own. I made some 4ext themes for the desire s and the desire and gave u the credit for helping me ages ago haha, u should check them out, they cool i think.
[HTC Sensation] regaw_leinad:
Awesome, man! Nice to see everyone is still enjoying my bootloader customizer :)
[HTC Sensation] jmcclue:
Yh its cool alrite. It would of been better tho if u could type in ur own date coz if i sold the phone no one is going to believe the phone was made last night lol. Anyway, great little tool for flashaholics like me :)
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
Hey man i remember you. I like the 4EXT them too, nice work. You can port your themes to the Sensation as well. You just need to resize the background images and edit the prop file to re size the processing animation. Thanks for stoppin by.
[HTC Sensation] jmcclue:
lol i just got the "you are limited to 8 thanks per day" msg. thats the first time i ever seen it haha. Anyway il try port the themes tonight maybe, well atleast the Black ops one, i like that one. See ya :cyclops:

[Galaxy S III Accessories] sargorn:
Been hunting around ebay/google looking for a screen protector for the lens of the Galaxy S3.

So far I have one of the SGP old Galaxy S lens protectors which kind of fits. I've had the phone three weeks and this lens protector already is a bit scratched. So I feel a proper fitting one might be useful.

What I've found so far:

Martin Fields:

http://www.martinfields.com/JP/Martin-Fields-Overlay-Plus-Screen-Protector-Samsung-Galaxy-S-III-

+ Heard reasonable reviews.

- Expensive.

- Only one lens protector in the kit? Two in the kit.

Rock:

http://www.miniinthebox.com/perfect...ctor-for-samsung-galaxy-s3-i9300_p344489.html

(also on ebay)

+ Cheap

+ Comes with 9 lens protectors

- Looks like the lens protectors come in different sizes and are round.

iMak:

http://www.cbay.co.nz/iMak Ultra Crystal Film for Samsung Galaxy S3

+ Cheap

+ Comes with properly fitted lens protector

- What the hell is cbay?

Nillkin:

http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2373012/all

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nillkin-ANT...464?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4604de3258

+ Cheap

- Forum post says it comes with a lens protector, ebay doesn't mention it.

Edit: looks like it might include it.

- eBay versions do not include the lens protector.

Best Skins Ever:

http://www.bestskinsever.com/samsung-galaxy-s3-skin

+ Fairly cheap

+ They're the best skins... ever? ;D

- One lens protector included

- polyurethane - (orange peel?)

Cut your own:

http://your scissors .com

+ Cheap

- Accuracy

- Effort

Anyone seen or tried any other protectors that come with a camera lens protector also?

And I know it'll slightly degrade picture quality. Not really important to me - I'd rather a scratch free lens and the ability to put the phone in my pocket.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] eiraku:
Best Skin Ever full body skins also includes one lens protector per set IINM.

Not sure how polyurethane film (BSE) is gonna influence pictures taken vs a piece of thin plastic though (normal SPs).
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Michael_P:
I just cut up a screen protector and stuck it over the lens and works as well as anything I could buy.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] melonbar123:
Stick a piece of clear scotch tape.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] msgnyc:
I just cut up one of my SGP Ultra Nano Clears for my GSIII. There a 3 pack and only needed one so.. ;)

In the past I've used the cutouts from the bestskinever full body skins. Apply wet for best results applying pressure with your finger for a short while so it sits firmly on the lens and metal trim around the lens without lifting at the joint. After a short curing time, gently rub it smooth with your finger or cleaning cloth to remove any fingerprint indentations left behind. ;).

They worked great. They're precut, No orange peel effect, smooth and I didn't notice any alterations to photos ASLONG AS YOU TAKE CARE OF IT. The problem is that since the material is soft, you have to be weary of where you place your phone down. It can show indentations and such which can alter your photos.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] otariq:
Will best skins ever help hide scratches that have already possessed my back cover

Could I request a version that is sped up? Silll 30 fps, but I guess with the equivalent of every other frame removed. The Galaxy S Blaze (480x800) has an insanely fast boot time. Barely get to see the actual Batman sign appear :)

If not, I can always load up the series of images into Virtualdub, speed it up, and export it back into an image sequence and inject it into the zip... Figured you might have a quicker way though.

Thanks for the great bootanimation!
