[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pintek:
this is what i get for oding late at night but i managed to do something very very stupid I odined my phone with a one click package for my captivate

I've been able to get the phone back in mostly working order now though.. but i feel in my gut something still may not be right.

here is where i got the package

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1300843

This below is what version i accidently installed.

I897UCKI2 Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread

With Bootloaders - Link to thread - Second Post [With CWM Injected Kernel from Boog]

so after i made this mistake.. (noticed my phone had a at&t bootscreen an wouldn't load) I went forth an flashed stock firmware avail for aiotools for the vibrant an then installed the stock froyo bootloader

I'm hoping everything is right in its place well except once i get cm9 flashed it boots up an shows a EU error so i freak yank the battery an odin this phone back into the stoneage an well... surprisingly.... my internal memory is 100% there O.O

anyways current issue is not being able to get cm7 to install though i'm probably missing something due to being tired anyways..

help sugestions banter calling me a noob I just want to make sure i did possibly everything to fix this mistake.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
You,my friend, dodged a bullet here.

Well, when you say you are not able to get CM7 to install, what exactly is it doing?

Are you getting thrown into a bootloop (caused by CWR mismatch and pretty common)? If so, pull battery and boot into recovery and re-flash CM7 over itself again. No wipe. Then reboot.

You may have to flash a different kernel, like glitch or something like that. But try the above first. Should work for you. Does it still say ATT when you boot up?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ali1276:
Lucky for you, everything is good, but if you want to flash a GB or higher ROM, i would suggest you flash the bootloaders in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1117990

After that just flash CM9, and you *should* be good, if not, try flashing it again with wiping data, cache, and dalvik cache. I guarantee that will work.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pintek:
I ended up having to format both SD cards an retrying install custom rom via aio tool an with luck was able to get cm7 installed then cm10 an i dno't have the ime error everyone else seams to have o.O. I did before this flash the gb bootloader over this cause it was the only thing that managed to remove the at&t splash screen before the kernal.

Lesson I learned....

remember that the vibrant you use aio tool not a premade pack >.<

an ya i do own both phones so this does complicate things now an then <,<

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WietsedeVries:
The first thing I want to say is that my English is not really good. I hope you understand my questions.

I have an idea for a new Android rom, but I'm faced with a dilemma. I want to have as much as possible supported devices, so I also can just build a launcher apk which can be installed through Google Play. In this way all mobile devices with the minimal platform version can use it. The biggest problem is that I don't only want a replacement for the application launcher but also the notification drawer and everything else. Is it possible to replace them also? I don't think so, so I think I'll work on a custom rom.

The next problem is which base rom I would use if I really build a custom rom. It's most likely to use AOSP as base because it's clean. The question is which version of AOSP: Gingerbread, Ice Cream Sandwich, or the newest version Jelly Bean. You would probably say Jelly Bean because this is the newest version. The problem is the phone support. Gingerbread is supported on most phones. If I build ICS or JB the phones which are supported by Cyanogenmod are easy to support, because I can use their device files. The only problem is that my phone, the Samsung Galaxy Gio is not officially supported and the unofficial port is not really stable. I don't think it's a big problem to use this device files and just wait till the developer makes it more stable, but I don't know for sure.

The last thing I want to know is if it's really that simple to support multiple devices. If I read tutorials about porting existing roms to your device they all say you just have to add your device files to the source and compile it. But they never say something about the kernel. Most devices need another kernel because their hardware is different isn't it? Please explain me how this works.

I'm sorry about this hazy story, but please help me before I make wrong choices. Thanks on purpose.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wingie6200:
These changes you are talking about can be done. They are system changes so not supported by the android app installer.

Eg: Your notification drawer, status bar are part of SystemUI.apk. The source for this is can be found in the AOSP source code under android/frameworks/base/...

You can make your modifications, compile it into an apk and then make a flashable zip to replace the current one (or push it via a rooted adb console).

or you can compile the entire source code into a flashable zip (eg CM7,9 etc..) and use it a replacement ROM with your modifications.

This is the line between an application under the android runtime and the android runtime itself.

these files, under framework are part of the OS. so to provide a customized version of the operating itself is what people like to call ROMs.

Now ROMs (like any OS) are device dependant. Windows has the code to run in a lot of different hardware configs, but android aims to be small. It should have only the minimum required code to efficiently run itself on a device.

Thats the kernel. The kernel communicates with the hardware and so the rest of the hardware can happily talk to a working kernel and expect the hardware to function as advertised. Kernel is a simple program which goes into the RAM on system start and sits there directing the operation of the phone.

Kernel devs work on making sure the hardware and the android runtime work perfectly together. Now, in this imperfect world, not all sources are open, even though they should be. and therein the issue lies.

If you want to compile android from source and make sure it works on your phone, first you need to make sure you have the kernel with all the changes(patches) to it made by the vendor (chap who made the phone and bullied you into buying it) to get it working on your hardware.

If you dont have that, you have to do it yourself. Or wait for someone else to do it.

once you can compile android and get it working on your phone with all the itty bitty hardware working A-OK.. then you can browse through the source, make changes as per your individual requirements and compile it into a ROM.

see the changes to the OS are separate from the changes to the kernel. The kernel changes are for hardware-software interaction so they are phone SPECIFIC.

but changes to your custom android OS (ROM) can be "cherry-picked" from other ROM/gerrit/AOSP/CM/AOKP sources and put inside your own source tree to get included in your build.

so if you have all the device / kernel stuff from a working android distribution, you can take the source of another android distribution and swap the device stuff into it and see if it works.

hope this helps.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WietsedeVries:
Thank you very very much for your explanation! It's a pity it's impossible to hit multiple times "Thanks". :P

I think I'm going to make a modified SystemUI.apk but you didn't tell the application launcher is also in this file. Did you just forget this or is this stored in another file/folder? And the lock screen? And I want also to replace the boot animation if it's possible.

If I take the source files of the SystemUI.apk of AOSP ICS, does this work on every phone running ICS? Included CM, AOKP and other (smaller) custom roms? And my last question: Since SystemUI.apk a apk file is, is it possible to edit these files through Eclipse and build it in Eclipse? Or do I get errors?

//Edit:

Still another question: How much work is it to, as example, port a modified Gingerbread SystemUI.apk to ICS? (Or vice versa)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FrankyDoodle:
Only way is through exchanging the png files since porting the whole .apk is impossible.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WietsedeVries:
Thanks for the answer. And do you also know the answers of the other questions?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wingie6200:
There are two roads you can go now - one is use apktool to *decompile* apk the apk file that you've taken from your phone, it doesnt convert the app to java source code but java bytecode in .smali files (like an assembly version of the source) but you will have access to the resource files (xml, images etc..) so you can replace them and create some new themes.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1814441

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1760133

And no - a GB systemUI.apk will *NOT* work on ICS. It is very probable that any changes you make through any of these methods can brick you phone. So make sure you have CWM and a nandroid backup.

If you want to add/edit functionality within the source code of systemUI.apk, you need to learn how to compile Android from Source. i would suggest getting hold of the CyanogenMod source tree for your device and playing around with it.

Ginger bread is CM7 and ICS is CM9.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1552090

once you have the full source tree, you'll find a folder called android/frameworks/base/core/...something../systemui/..

this will contain the javasource code for your application. Here you can edit stuff to your hearts content!

Note that this cannot be compiled standalone by eclipse. The Android build system must be used to compile this (cuz its a system app).

a nice resource i used when i was doing the same thing :laugh:

So this is the scenario, my TF300T (WW v30) is unlocked, rooted, TWRP and running ICS 4.0.3 in the shape of Hydro 4.4A.

Questions:

a) Can it be updated (manually of course) to US JB4.1?

b) What are steps to do it?

c) Is root and/or TWRP lost in the process?

The silence around the (only) custom ROM for TF300 is deafening, i am willing to go stock JB and don't wait for updated Hydro....i only installed it because i was tired of browser lag and needed to use browser2ram...which lag i understand now is fixed in JB.

Hi guys I have started a thread so that I can teach you that how to get jelly bean on your device without flashing any jellybean custom roms like cyengmod 10 or any other.

Of course you are not going to get the cool new features of jellybean like Google now and project butter but you can make your phone look completely like jellybean.

1) download apex launcher from Google play.

2) then download jellybean theme for apex launcher.

3) then download camera ics from market.

4) then download jellybean keyboard from market.

5) then download jellybean messaging from market.

6) now download ics statusbar from the market.

7) download holo locker for jb lockscreen

8) download ex dialer from market and ics theme for exdialer.

[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SALLEBALL:
I am not sure I'm getting the question right. But, you're looking for an effect on your Launcher?

I did a quick search and it seems that a few roms with the Rosie Launcher has removed the Carousel effect from the rom. Your best bet is probably to flash a new rom that actually has the effect, or download another launcher that has a similar effect.
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Asovse1:
The carousel effect absolutely destroyed Sense 3.0 and Sense 3.5. HTC finally got their heads straight on Sense 3.6 (aka Sense 4.0 lite with ICS), and either toned it down or removed it (I forget). It's awful.

This video in particular sticks out like a sore thumb for those long, forgotten days:

[YOUTUBE]VIJ3Hi6AtYw[/YOUTUBE]

If you want anything remotely close without an impediment on performance (actually, it's once of your only choices), use LauncherPro (Plus may be needed, not sure), and apply a homescreen transition animation.

Another launcher may have this, and it may be free, but LauncherPro is my launcher of choice despite not having updated for 1.5 years. It's pretty damn fast and has everything I need; no more, no less.
