Hey guys, I'm not doing well with CM9 without being able to compile from source (HDD space issues) so I think I'm going to move onto a Sense 3.6 ROM. I was wondering, what are some easy first time mods I can do to Rosie.apk? Like for example APM and Volume wake up? Or changing the color of settings background from white to black?

I don't need my hand to be held through the process, I would just like to know which files need to be edited for different mods. Thanks :good:

How can I get my phone meid unlocked so that I can send it to beigephone and get it flashed to page plus. This DFB didn't pay her bill so I'm stuck with a bolt I can't do anything with but Wi-Fi use any ideas
[Thunderbolt General] skeet43169:
I guess is that it's not possible :( fml
[Thunderbolt General] quickdraw86:
i have no intentions of flashing to another carrier, but several thunderbolt users i've seen have been able to flash to pageplus. you may need CDMA workshop if you want to do it yourself, i think CDMA workshop is around $100.00. there's a free demo version too, but i'm not sure that the demo would be sufficient to do this.

check this out:

Yea dude I know all that I need the meid freed from a contract
[Thunderbolt General] disconnecktie:
So you're in a contract with Verizon right now?
[Thunderbolt General] allo_87:
I'm not sure that you can 'unlock' an meid yourself, that's something the carrier has to do (with stolen phones and whatnot)

So if it's on her account, she'll have to get in touch with them herself and give her IMEI number and account details. They should then give an unlock code to make the phone usable again.

If that IMEI number has been flagged (as stolen or possibly delinquent) even an unlocking service won't be able to help you until the carrier clears it.
[Thunderbolt General] KidJoe:
What you are looking for is to CLEAR the MEID/IMEI so that it can be used on another account.

You can't do that. Only the carrier can. Until the account is settled/paid with the carrier, that MEID/IMEI will be associated/assigned to that account and therefore can't be used on a different account.

Since PagePlus uses VZW towers/service (to my knowledge), you're stuck until the old account issues are settled.
[Thunderbolt General] skeet43169:
Yup I'm stuck with Wi-Fi only thunderbolt this sux I guess she won in the long run although I have seen some nice prepaid phone's I seen an HTC one and some evo 4g's that have ics and are affordable virgin mobile and boost have unlimited data

[HD2 Android NAND Development] Rick_1995:
another thing you might want to know,

I've removed logo.rle from ramdisk, both to save time and space. I don't fancy bootup logos, Currently it will show wierd patterns on boot if you switch off and power on or the last screen you had if you reboot. This requires a small fix in the kernel which I will release with my next version with the new kernel.
[HD2 Android NAND Development] securecrt:
can you also update the mmc part from my git, as I want to install your rom to my sdcard:rolleyes:
[HD2 Android NAND Development] Rick_1995:
I don't fancy compiling android, I'm more interested in the lower level work of bootloader and kernel. cm7 because it has most stuff working and is smooth, stable. This is the build i use whenever i go out like a man on a mission.

Sorry, but i didn't get you what mmc part from your git should be updated ? or Do you want me to update the initrd for phoenix's method of system on sd-ext ?
[HD2 Android NAND Development] securecrt:
I mean, the mmc driver in the kernel,

I made the following changes from CAF.

Hi.

Im new to HTC and I can't figure out how do unlock my friends Wildfire so he can use a different ?carrier?

Im not so good at english and I don't know what keyword to search for. I've tryed to searched for many hours now. I've rootet an fixed recovery and CM7 rom. Im not totally stupid but this was hard, I've fixed many Samsung phones, even a totally locked Iphone :@.

Can someone please help me with this? Don't care if its takes a couple more hours as long as I can fix it(with your help)

Regards

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Echo237:
You can go to the htcdev.com website and unlock the bootloader.

And try searching "unlock carrier locked HTC wildfire" in google....and only see the xda link.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scratch0805:
There is no way to unlock a wildfire to another carrier that we know of, other than purchasing a code from ebay etc etc....

Samsung are a little more open than htc when it comes to customization thats why they are easier to root etc etc
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rekkaone:
How do I know if its Wildfire A3360 A3380 or regular?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Echo237:
Umm, do you have the which in which it came ?

And remember this will only unlock your bootloader. And if Scratch said that they don't know about it, then I'm sorry there might be no other way. He is much much much more experienced in this than I am.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rekkaone:
okay thanks. Its weird that i cant unlock carrier, its f***ing 2012 now :(
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Slymobi:
as mentioned by scratch,you can unlock the carrier but just not for free. Believe me when I say we have tried......and tried!!! .

you've done the hard work by managing to root and install custom rom. for most this enough as now you can flash many other available roms.

p/s: Using 16GB Kingmax class 10 microSDHC for internal and external sd :p
[Streak 5 General] thouae:
Did u change internal storage?we can use that as sd storage or not?
[Streak 5 General] abdulm:
Which SD card is this? I mean make and class...
[Streak 5 General] nnn286570:
details please..!!!

BEEN TRYING WITH 16GB CARD...REIMAGED THE CARD WITH EXT3 AND ALL BUT IT WOULD NOT ACCEPT 16GB CARD......PLEASE GIVE US MORE DETAIL ON HOW TOs....THANKS IN ADVANCED..:confused:
[Streak 5 General] TheManii:
He just installed a 16gb card and formatted it properly.

You must use extended partitions and not primary ones, at least that's what the stock card is set up as
[Streak 5 General] ellisna:
Does the benefit come from the class of the sd card or the size? or is it the format (ext3vs4 or some such thing)?
[Streak 5 General] deysmacro:
class for sd card means speed... so the higher the better..
[Streak 5 General] TheManii:
Speed class determines it's actual read and write speed, FS is important as ext4 is the most efficient fs currently available.

It's supposed to be a good deal faster then yaffs2 and more efficient then ext3
[Streak 5 General] deysmacro:
i go on and make it ext4 both for cache and data for the internal sd.. boots up normally and yes... you can see something faster...

its a shame that the CWM 6 not supported ext4 and therefore nandroid backup is impossible for now...

i also tried and make both internal and external sd not in the slot... and see if streak manages to boot up or not.. well... it stuck at dell logo.. lol :D

so internal sd is a must so that phone can boot due to the needs of use cache and data dir...
[Streak 5 General] TheManii:
I can easily make a build that supports it, it's just that the rom must also support it.

The rom could likely be modified to mount /firstboot as /data, but there's not enough partitions to also have /cache on the nand.
[Streak 5 General] deysmacro:
i see...

well i am using longhorn 2.9.3...

CWM 6 cant read ext4 because how the script work? i really thought it could since it is newer and i know streakmod had issues with ext4...

but when i am thinking back.. it seems it have same baseworks...
[Streak 5 General] TheManii:
It's turned off on the normal S5 build as ext4 requires additional modules, as it normally doesnt use ext4 I simply built it with them off.

I dont recall of CWM 1.8/2.5 (which streakmod is based off of) even supports ext4, the earliest one I can confirm it does is 4.0 as that was the 1st version built against the stock GB recovery. GB was the 1st rom that uses ext4 by default (on devices that launched with GB or newer)
[Streak 5 General] jitin02:
Themanni.

Can we have a third partition on the inner sdcard??? To use as external storage. If so can you help/guide how to!
[Streak 5 General] TheManii:
I havnt actually tried it (but I plan to some day in the future): just manually make the partitions and add an extra one onto the end for /system.

At that point: unless you follow a standardized layout, you're going to need to manually build CWM as CWM needs to know ahead of time the layout and size of the partitions it's going to deal with. If it doesnt it could lead to corrupt filesystems on flashes/nandroids.

If I ever do build it, it'll either be for a 8 or 16 gb card with a defined set of partitions.

You'll also need to modify the rom to actually boot from innerSDx too.
[Streak 5 General] deysmacro:
well... i would appreciate if you could make it support by default of ext4... no harm to it right?

lol.. i really thought streakmod comes from 4.0 but it seems i missed that... man ... streakmod really so obselete.. :p
[Streak 5 General] deysmacro:
although i really welcome additional 3rd partition.. dont it have issues with mounting? because how streak works and meant to be, it never have one such as sd-ext ... i mean... some have tried to make it appear on windows but failed miserably.. and thus gave up on it.. and since the fs is ext type, we do need to install driver for it such as Ext2Fsd to make it able to read and write on windows... also.. for media file, it may not detect it unless we explicitly want the third partition to be used only for storage .... but if we can make it able to detect media.. that would be even better... :D

currently that work wonder is by using wifi file browser for now... for storing file inside /data :)
[Streak 5 General] TheManii:
sd-ext is/was rather redundant as the S5 has a very large (for it's time) /data.

If anything you'd be better off making a large partition to mount as /sdcard and chainmount the real sdcard as /sdcard/sdcard2 or just /sdcard2 on ICS.

I have no idea how easy/hard all this is, I havnt tried any of it.

It really depends on if the kernal can detect additional partitions beyond innerSD0p6

I've bugged n0p about adding MTP into the ICS kernal so you can simply have a very large /data + /data/media, but he's not interested.

(though like it sounds, it only works on ICS or newer, it was introduced in HC 3.2, but we dont have a rom for that)
[Streak 5 General] deysmacro:
thats what i have been trying to do this past weeks.. making it /sdcard and chainmount the real sdcard as /sdcard/sdcard2 but to no avail... as it has no real solution to it...

mtp support is a huge leap since many says it has better file handling protocol but if its get added to ics that we have here.. wow.. that one is a huge plus for us.. :good:
[Streak 5 General] TheManii:
have you edited your vold.fstab?

You need to edit that and change the mounts in your ramdisk at the minimum to do so
[Streak 5 General] DorkyDev:
Well now, this was all a useless reading... I saw nothing at ALL about resizing the partitions...

All I saw was you mention a rom (In which I don't wanna use), and flashing it and dual mounting and creating files in the fat32 innersd.

Jack about resizing again I say. LoL

So yea, do carry on since must've ya misunderstood what I was asking? I'm not trying to mount anything yet, just trying to resize the 2 ext3 partitions I have, maybe cache to 5Gb and data to 15Gb and then the rest (All I have is 3) to 20Gb's of fat32 (Or some other format better to use).

Closest thing I saw was this, which IDK if it's what you were talking about: [S-OFF] BLACKROSE (Custom HBOOT) [2012.04.21], which you never mentioned elsaghir did!

_

Has anybody thought of trying to access the unused amount (while it's ext) in something like Paragon Ext Mount for Windows and then seeing if once ya moved the data onto it if ya could access and use it in android?
[Streak 5 General] DorkyDev:
If so then again I am having problems... I installed the driver for ADB Device, ADB Bootloader and ADB Composite and all 3 error out and say Your HBoot Is Not Supported
[Streak 5 General] DorkyDev:
Scratch that, I got it done my way... I used Acronis Disk Director and managed to resize the 1.92Gb to 15.49Gb's so this is good enough for now... Later on I'll worry bout trying to resize the cache.
[Streak 5 General] DorkyDev:
Question... Can I just delete the unallocated space, then resize the (what once was, I guess this is the data) 1.92Gb and the resize the 200 some odd mb (Cache?) partition?

I'm thinking of resizing data 25Gb's then resizing cache to 5Gb's then using my external sd card normally. I know it might be over kill but with space like this I can afford it. Or would even 1Gb cache be good enough?
[Streak 5 General] jitin02:
Just get into gparted and plug in your sdcard. You can delete any partitiow without formating card
[Streak 5 General] DorkyDev:
I tried with GParted and it was being a "bish" with Acronis Disk Director it let me do stuff GParted wouldn't but was supposed to. Plus I didn't have to reboot the pc. LoL

I'm just making sure it's okay to delete that.
[Streak 5 General] DorkyDev:
I made the cache 1.32Gb's
[Streak 5 General] SJackal:
My innerSD is 16GB and has been running perfectly for a week now. I must admit that I haven't read all the reactions, since the instructions to replace/upgrade the innerSD worked perfect for me. But you remark of the cache makes me curious, where can I find the part to increase the cache?
[Streak 5 General] DorkyDev:
From what i gathered the larger the cache the better. Plus if ya look at deysmacro's table chart he showed me on page 17, you'll see they doubled the cache to 512mb's instead of 256mb's, so this also made me wanna give it a shot. The cache in this case stores personal stuff, saved passwords and so on down to cookies and other junk. Plus there might be some system page filing and such too. I think?

Someone correct me if i'm wrong with this analasys but the cache is ALMOST like a Pc's memory/ram and the data is like the hard drive.... Right?
[Streak 5 General] TheManii:
The cache stores nothing except the ocassional partial download, it's almost always empty.

It's the equivilent of %temp% on windows except for that fact the vast majority of apps never generate any temp files.

80% of the time the only thing in it is a file in the process of being downloaded, and custom recovery logs.
[Streak 5 General] _2bad4u_:
I have open the streak and take the card and put it in a card reader and i saw it in linux mint, it has 2 extended partition one is 260mb and only 20 mb used and one is 3.4gb witch is for apps, why the 240 system partition is only used 20mb, is it normal, if you want i post a screenshoot, i'm using miui rom.
[Streak 5 General] deysmacro:
i forgot to tell you guys bout this matter..

if you guys change the size of /cache .. nandroid backup most probably failed .. miserably ...especially if you guys use streakmod recovery ...

it may says that the nandroid backup successfully completed but in reality ... it may not ...

worst case scenario ... when trying to restore nandroid ... the internal and/or external sd might be damaged or lost its partition table ...
[Streak 5 General] TheManii:
If you're not using the standardized size, you really shouldnt be using nandroids period.

All custom recs require the partition sizes ahead of time, I'm guessing for that very reason.

You can risk your data doing other things, but risking it while nandroiding seems counterproductive.

You shouldnt be using streakmod either unless you're using the stock layout.
[Streak 5 General] DorkyDev:
And if ya changed it back to the normal 260? Oddly enough I've noticed with the cache change is my system isn't as snappy as it was before. LoL
[Streak 5 General] TheManii:
I simply use 512mb, that's what I have written down for streak5sd8 and streak5sd32, 512 is a very round number (in binary).

I cant say that any of this will make it faster, I'm mainly interested in the addtional storage.
[Streak 5 General] deysmacro:
you have to use the modded rom such as longhorn 2.9.3 b1 or b2 to see any difference .. i for myself .. dont notice any lag at all... in fact the battery life have been very great :)
[Streak 5 General] jitin02:
Why there is folder named "sdcard" in /data? ?

Is that what deysmarco Did?
[Streak 5 General] deysmacro:
i believe that one is pre-prepared by TheManii in case he manages to make dual mount support by default ..
[Streak 5 General] SJackal:
Has anyone tried this with the Stock ROM?

I upgraded my internal SD when I was using the DSC rom, and it worked like a charm.

Just for testing, I installed the Stock ROM on my device, (so with the 16GB internal memory I was using for weeks).I installed the last retail stock rom from Dell (Android 2.2.2, BB360, build 17397), and after setup I saw that the internal memory had just 100MB free! :confused:

I put the original internalSD back, flashed to the Stock ROM. Now the internal memory showed approx. 1.5 Gb free, (as expected). Next I performed the steps to upgrade the internal SD, so imaged this SD card and restored it to the 16GB SD card. With GParted expanded the partition, and then put the 16GB in the streak.

After this, everything worked as expected. I had the 16GB internal memory. But when I did a factory reset, the internal memory just showed approx. 100MB free! :confused: I tried this a few times with different 16GB SD cards to make sure I that the 16GB SD card was not corrupted or something, but always the same outcome. So with the Stock rom on a larger internal SD card, a factory reset causes headaches :eek:

I also tried the factory resets on the original internalSD, it there it nicely stays on the approx. 1,5 GB free.

Just confused why, life's hard! :crying:

Anyone else experience with the Stock Rom and a bigger internal SD card? With DSC rom I didn't have any issues with the same SD card.
[Streak 5 General] deysmacro:
it is quite simple of why actually... the stock rom properly supports max 8gb for internal sd.. nuff said :cool:

just use 8gb for internal sd and you will be free of headache.. lol :D

or if you want to use 16gb and up.. dont do factory reset when using stock rom... or just use custom rom and you can do factory reset...

you can have either but not both :D
[Streak 5 General] SJackal:
Ordering a 8gb right away! :laugh:

Thanks!! :good:
[Streak 5 General] _n0p_:
SJackal, i wouldn't hurry :)

If you feel like doing some tests, i can prepare a kernel with different ramdisk so it'll mount partitions on 16GB SD.
[Streak 5 General] SJackal:
Always in to do some tests. ;)

But do remind that it worked flawless with your ROM, and I will go back to DSC. I was just fooling around and it was nagging me why there was a difference. I'm will stay on this stock till you release DSC v1.6. So if you want me to do so tests... :D
[Streak 5 General] _n0p_:
Oh, i see :)
[Streak 5 General] deysmacro:
get a 8gb class 10 while you are at it... higher class means higher performance tho i cant see much in naked eyes :D
[Streak 5 General] jitin02:
Sir I am up for testing this kernel

As I am really willing to get back to dsc . My fav rom
[Streak 5 General] _n0p_:
Here:

http://n0p.8bit.fm/streak/DSC_PhoenixB.zip

Should work for DSC & 407 - will mount /cache and /data (ext3) without checking innerSD.
[Streak 5 General] PqRambo:
First of all, thanks for the tip.

Works 100%.

The only difference is that I instead use a 16 GB card, I chose to use a Sandisk Mobile Ultra 32GB Micro SDHC Memory Class 10 UHS-I U1 Android.

It worked the first time. I have the Streak 5 "running at a week and never blocked me.

Again thanks for the explanation. Easier than that, no.
[Streak 5 General] deysmacro:
32gb only? heh.. you can go more than that if you want .. :D
