In case airplane mode usage, no wifi - mobile - bluetooth, 25% screen brightness, my 1.5 years old note 2 can get around 12-13 hours screen on time :victory: (firmware 4.4.2 rooted)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrosetto:
I'm about to get my SGSII in about an hour and the first thing I plan to do is flash the Siyah kernel through odin and gain root. Is there a way to backup the stock kernel without root before I flash this one?

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] screenager:
you dont need to backup the original stock kernel. you can download it anytime, just use the search function. i recommend flashing a matching stock rooted kernel for your firmware, then perform traingle away and then flash siyah from cwm.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrosetto:
OK, thanks for the good advice. I will definitely go that route since this is the first SGSII I've owned and you would know better than I do. Just for the record if I did it my way would it have bricked my phone?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jokesy:
After getting your galaxy s2,

First thing is to Post your firmware details here; Goto Settings - About phone, and post everything you see.

You might not need to flash any kernel at the end the day.

Happy Independence Day!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrosetto:
OK just got the phone and they didn't send it with a battery...

Anyway here is the info

Model Number: SGH-T989

Android version: 4.0.4

Baseband version: T989UVLH1

Kernel version: 3.0.8

Build number: IMM76D.UVLH1

Let me know if you need anything else.

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jokesy:
Good.

1. Your device is T-Mobile variant of the Galaxy SII.

2. Flashing anything meant for GT I9100X including Siyah kernel will destroy your phone.

3. Visit the right forum for your phone, and continue from there: xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1329

Consider yourself very lucky!

Don't flash Siyah kernel at all

Happy Independence Day!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jrosetto:
Wow thank you for saving me. Didn't realize there was a subforum for my phone. I definitely owe you one.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UnwiredDroid:
STOP! Dont flash your phone with siyah kernel. It will brick your phone. Right now Siyah works only for the International version.

Are there any app that allows us to swipe the bottom to show/hide the navbar like Smart Statusbar?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Neera:
I use Nova Launcher and it gives you an option to show/hide the status bar and dock. You can then assign a gesture to show/hide them if you like.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qwer23:
I think he's talking about the actual navigation bar, not about statusbar or dock. I'd be very interested too, but I doubt it unless it is cooked into a ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crixley:
flash paranoidandroid and be fully happy :P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Neera:
Oh sorry, my bad. I though the OP was talking about the status bar since the app he referred to has screenshots of the status bar being hidden.

But ya not sure if there is an app to hide the nav bar (back, home button...) unless on a custom ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 11768:
What can it do?

Thanks guys for the replies. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mgamerz:
I think he means swipe up on the screen to open the launcher menu.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rice923:
Here's what I'm doing at the moment:

1) ROM: ParanoidAndroid 2.14 (about to flash 2.16 which is reported to have transparent navbar)

2) Alt. Nav: LMT 1.5

3) Launcher: Apex

Using PA 2.14, I went to settings to hide the navbar completely (it never comes back up unless I turn it back on). I then use LMT 1.5 to navigate (typically through "pie" buttons at the edge of the screen, but gestures are also supported). I also hid my status bar via Apex Launcher and toggle it on and off.

Note: Apex Launcher only hides my status bar at the home screen. When I am on any other page aside from home, the status bar comes back automatically. You can completely disable navbar and status bar in PA using the "expanded desktop" feature.

Took me a few days to come up with this set up, but it works great :good:

edit: as far as swiping up to access navbar, try apex's gesture settings
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 11768:
Thanks. Tried LMT and it work great. Will stick to this for now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tgyberg:
Can someone post a screenshot of the transparent nav bar on PA? Thanks! :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] strumcat:
Navbar removal is now an option in CNA ROM as well.

Hi there,

I was wondering if someone was working on multi view / multi window for i9300?

and same for air view.... i really like that features on my s3
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] stu5797:
I just purchased nova launcher prime on my rooted kindle fire hd and i can not believe how great it runs. This tablet is amazing!
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] PhillyFlyer:
screenies?
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] tofuturkey:
View attachment 1368142

I kept the Amazon launcher because I wasn't able to start the Kindle app from Nova. I think it needed a reboot, it's fine now.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] PhillyFlyer:
Awww mannnn, that looks so awesome. I just got a Kindle Fire HD yesterday and I can't root. I just can NOT get the ADB to recognize my device. I am super disappointed.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] tofuturkey:
The problem I had was I didn't initially have the composite version of the ADB driver installed. I had to do a Windows update where it found the correct driver. Is that the issue you're facing?
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] PhillyFlyer:
I am not quite sure if that is my particular issue. As I mentioned, I got this thing yesterday afternoon. I am pretty good with the Android devices because I have a Samsung Galaxy S III and I have been using XDA to mod most of my phones for a while now. But, I am a bit confused with this Kindle Fire HD - when using the root que I can not get it to recognize my device which makes me think that the drivers are wrong. I really am clueless with this one. But thanks for the screenies - that looks awesome.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] migjr415:
I had the same problem where it wouldn't recognize my device but I could see it in device manager. So I rolled back the driver and that fixed it for me. This was on windows seven, hope it helps.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] iMJets:
I cant Get Nova Launcher Prime from the Play Store to work.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] alkemist80:
OP doesn't give much details, but if its the same with go launcher ex, you need a rooted device, download, don't install, move apk to system/apps with permissions rw-r-r, install, reboot and it will say the system is updating and the launcher will work and you can set as default.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] iMJets:
yah i ended up, reading that thread after haha. Got go launcher thanks for the help! :good:
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] gpmartinson:
Moving to /system/app

seems to the do the trick. That's all you need to do...Install both the Nova and the Nova Prime launcher in /system/app and then reboot. You'll be primpted for which launcher you want...Now I have a Nexus 7 with the ability to rent from Amazon!
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] uhupong:
make aure you enable ADB in the device and uninstall what ever driver you installed earlier.

You also have hdmi out capabilities. Much better than nexus 7!

How about Go Locker ? Such a great replacement for the annoying original locker with ads :D
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] iMJets:
I was gonna try this not sure if it would work though, Swiftkey 3 crashed on me but the concept was there.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] gpmartinson:
Hey Guys, is there a trick to getting the kindle app to launch off Nova? I have to launch the kindle launcher and then find my books within...
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] iMJets:
I was gonna try this, I would love to have a new lockscreen without ads.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] tofuturkey:
I tried a couple of things... I may have reinstalled the Kindle app via the file manager, then rebooted.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] iMJets:
I have gotten Widget locker to work as the main lock screen. But the problem is the amazon lock is behind it still. So rather useless without tinkering.

*Edit* it only shows the amazon ads lock screen once. After restart with proper settings changes
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] PhillyFlyer:
Hey, I was wondering if you had the previous drivers so that I could try rolling mine back? That would be so helpful, thanks!
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] Xyth:
Installed Nova Prime in the system folder with correct permissions and root. Cam up ok and updated on reboot. Worked for a while, However, after another reboot it came up saying "Nova launcher has stopped". Installed again but keeps throwing the same error. Nothing was altered between reboots, so the Nova launcher might not be the best choice for the HD.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] alkemist80:
Go launcher ex has been stable for me. Lots of reboots and no force closing. I noticed in general the KFHD is extremely finicky. Things can work fine and then randomly stop on a reboot and breaks when nothing has changed.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] :
Thanks for all the help, folks. Got this up and running and it's pretty fantastic. Still hoping for an unlockable boot loader but this has convinced me to hold onto my KFHD for sure.

One question: has anyone had any success changing the wallpaper?
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] PhillyFlyer:
Guys, after a whole day of investigation - I was able to root my Kindle, I had the newest firmware which was making ADB a nightmare. ANYWAY - can you speak to me like im a child and tell me how to set permissions on the launcher apps and when to do this. Basically a step-by-step? Thank you MUCH.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] onemeila:
After you move the apk to the system/app folder. Scroll down and find the the apk in system/app folder. Long press and choose the properties option should be the last one. A screen will pop up with a change button beside permissions.

It will originally look like this: ( with checks though not x's)

r w e

x x

Uncheck boxes to look like this:

Not sure if this is necessary though cause I loaded golauncher hd and didnt change permissions. Still worked and seemd to be fine. But the stock launcher uses these permissions so....?

---------- Post added at 06:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:57 PM ----------

sorry dont know why it bunched those tables together
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] alkemist80:
Just throwing this out there, but you need some form of file manager such as root explorer or es file explorer. Normally you long press the file to bring up options, you should see one called permissions. Otherwise its covered in the above post so I won't repeat unless there are further questions.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] Xyth:
I tried go launcher and like Nova it works great until a re boot. It gives the upgrading message then throws the stop message when it tries to start. Any ideas of what to try next? I installed google Play in the system folder before without problems And using the same steps.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] tofuturkey:
After you move the .apk to /system/app, did you click on it again to reinstall?
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] Xyth:
Yes. Works at that point but will not work after a reboot. I have a boatload of apps loaded, so I'm guessing a conflict with another app that only a factory reset might fix. I will live with the stock launcher before I redo all that work.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] onemeila:
Try this- dont install it after you move the apk just reboot the device. it should automatically install
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] iMJets:
if u install the original gallery.apk that is found on all most every phone you can think of. you can get wallpapers that way. Just follow the same steps, moving it to system/app then changing the permissions. I have my phone gallery working on my KFHD.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] onemeila:
I didn't have to do anything to change my wallpapers. It changed to the go launcher ex default wallpaper when i installed it but easily changed it like you normally would. Downloaded a wallpaper app from play store for more choices but thats it. I have disabled the ads though by removing all permissions to the dtcp_apk.apk, not sure if that made a difference but i guess it could have.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] Xyth:
Thanks, but no difference. Good news though; Go Launcher HD worked where Go Launcher EX would not. Not sure why, but HD seems to be a nice launcher.

Can't use the Kindle reading app yet though, need to figure out why only that seems to fail in the new launcher. Maybe a reinstall will help.

Edit: Reinstalling the Kindle app from inside the system/app folder worked. It runs fine off the Go Launcher screen now
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] Zedd247:
Go launcher hd is for tablets

[7" Kindle Fire HD General] gpmartinson:
So I go in system/app and reinsyall the kindle app and I still have no love in getting kindle top run. Any other ideas. I can get it to run by running the kindly launcher.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] Xyth:
Update: After reinstalling the Kindle application, it seemed to be working fine. However, occasionally Kindle will not launch from the Go Launcher HD desktop or taskbar. The work around is to flip to the default Kindle launcher, run the kindle book app, then flip back to Go Launcher HD and run kindle from there. It seems to work then, but something eventually stops it from working. I put the Kindle launcher icon on my Go launcher task bar for quick flipping in and out if needed.

When I determine the root cause I will post it.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] PhillyFlyer:
HEY - shout out to all for the support! Thanks. We are all eager to get these incredible machines rooted and modded, etc.

Just thought I would update on my Kindle Fire HD situation.

I am rooted and using GoLauncher EX. All apps working properly - no forced stops. Initially I was having google app problems, but I uninstalled the Google Services and framework and reinstalled, rebooted device, and it all eventually came together. I would really like to get the GoLocker working - but I need to figure out a way to disable the Amazon locker - if anyone has any ideas regarding this issue - lets share.

Thanks again for all who keep replying and helping through this process.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] stu5797:
I use the app " no lock " in the play store and set it as a system application
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] Xyth:
Ok, I think the issue is related to the "Kindle for Otter" version of the Kindle reader that is installed by default. I think it has dependencies on the stock launcher, like the book selection feature. So I doubt this can be resolved without a different Kindle .apk. However, I'm not going to try that at this point. If your reading one book, hit the home key to exit rather than the backarrow, and Kindle will relaunch for that book. I dont see a way to get back to the book selection without slipping into the default launcher first.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] PhillyFlyer:
Okay, so if you have a minute maybe you could help me..

I have No Lock now.

1. Do I drop this in /system/app and install it there, for this to work?

2. If i get No Lock to work, and it takes away my amazon locker, how could I get the GoLocker to work in its place?
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] vzwty:
I have Nova and AWD Dx. Both work fine but when I set a wallpaper it disappears and defaults back to what looks like the honeycomb wall paper? Its odd and bugging the crap out of me! Thoughts?
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] tofuturkey:
I renamed the Otter version, and installed the one from Play store, didn't like the lack of fonts and number of words per page, and reverted back to Otter.

Seems like Nova Launcher is no good for me either. Bummer, I hate Go Launcher. :p

Went ahead and tried Go Launcher as well and it crashes too. Hmm.

---------- Post added at 08:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:18 PM ----------

Not sure where I screwed up yet. I am properly rooted. I backed up the Nova Launcher and Go Launcher APK files from my Nexus 7. I didn't install either, I just copied to System\App folder. Changed permissions to rw-r--r--. Rebooted. Choose Nova or Go Launcher and just get Not responding crash messages. What did I miss?
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] onemeila:
Couple of things,

Do you have a lot of apps loaded on your device already(especially from amazon app store)? I know some of the apps i had download from there didnt react well and i erased them. Not just those though any number of apps could be causing problems. There is a thread on here that talks about Gmail causing the notification bar to disappear so i imagine one could be causing the launchers to not work.

The first time i loaded go launcher i got the same message of "not responding- wait or force close". I hit wait, then it started working , don't know if it was just a fluke though and haven't had a problem since. Going on a week now with multiple reboots.

Lastly try getting the apk files from a different source. Not sure why this would make a diff. but maybe worth a shot.

Hope something from this helps.

Sent from my rooted Kindle Fire HD
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] alkemist80:
When I had my KFHD, I had moved the apk (most current version and not installed) to system/apps, permissions rw-r-r, and installed, THEN rebooted. It still gave me the system updating when it loaded and worked perfect. Used it for a few days after and no problems.

You might want to consider a system reset and clear out all the files. There maybe conflicts happening. When I was messing around and installing programs all over, I ended up using 3GB of data. I have no idea how but after I reset and installed what I needed and knew where to put it, it wasn't even close to using 1GB.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] Misfit77:
I am using Nova Launcher and after several reboots I still cannot access the Kindle App. How do I get it working?
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] vzwty:
I have the same issue. As far as I know there isn't a way. You can access the Kindle Launcher from your app drawer and then access the Kindle app. I use Aldiko mostly anyways so it's not a big deal for me.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] Misfit77:
So you have to put it in system/app and set permissions?

Update: Uninstalled Widget locker, moved it to system/app with rw-r-r permissions and installed from there. I then rebooted and my Fire and it "upgraded" but still went to the ad lockscreen. What were the settings changes you made?

Update 2: I noticed that there's a kindle special offers .apk int he system/app folder. I wonder if deleting that would get rid of that lockscreen?
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] onemeila:
Don't delete that apk. Just remove all the permissions. This just removes the ads from lockscreen. Worked for me and have not had a problem. Still brings up random pics but no ads.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] gpmartinson:
What is the name of the app in system/app that puts ads in the lock screen?
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] onemeila:
dtcp_apk.apk
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] iMJets:
I required Widget Locker that was moved to system/app with the rw-r-r permissions to start-up and override the lock screen on boot. That is found in the normal settings of the widget locker. After doing this, i rebooted. But the screen came up with the default lock screen, but right under it was the widget locker. After that point I didn't see the stock lock any more. Just once every-time I boot. I do not recommend deleting any files, because it is hard to get them back. I am still trying to figure out how to remove the stock one completely on boot.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] Misfit77:
Okay, thanks. I thought you had been able to get rid of the stock lockscreen completely.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] iMJets:
I wish i could figure it out. I believe I knew how but i do not want to fiddle with renaming files until I know a hundred percent what they all do..
