FILES YOU CAN EASILY EDIT IN THE RAMDISK

There are some files in the ramdisk that can be edited pretty easily. There are also other files editing which means you gotta be RD or gotta have similar talent. Let's not go into that for now. The easy ones are:

1. initlogo.rle - The file that is easiest to edit. Basically you can convert any image to .rle format and replace it. make sure it is the right resolution.

2. /sbin/recovery - You can use recovery from another kernel (for the same Android version)and replace it in yours. You can also compile your own recovery binary by issuing the make recovery command after a successful CM build.

3./sbin/bootrec - You may have to change this when you change the recovery. Just a simple copy paste, that's all.

4. /sbin/rec_input - This file may need changing too when you change recovery.

5. /res/images/.. - Every .png file in this directory can be easily changed to any other .png file. Just make sure the resolutions are right, or else you will not be able to navigate properly in recovery.

6. init.rc - This file is easily changeable but you need to know what you are doing, otherwise you may mess up the boot sequence.

You can have a shot at changing other files, too. Lemme know how it goes.

this should not be done it is cheating

until claiming warranty everything is OK but damaging it to get money back is wrong this should be avoided

and Samsung will never pay the money back they can only fix it
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] sthakker:
Why not simply sell it to someone? Its a new phone, still has warranty and people are nowadays willing to pay for good cheap Android phones. Its the smart way to do.

However if you really want the phone to be Bricked, install ROM Manager, play a little with it and I'm pretty sure your phone will become so Hard Bricked, no one will ever be able to revive it back.:laugh::cool:
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] arfu34:
just go sell it ..m sure u will get a buyer as phn is in warranty too..this way u'll recover some money..

just flash an empty zip file then your done if they

ask whathappend say I'm updating my phone and the battery whent off

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] kirakun:
yup its hard to get a refund, but you could brick it and say u want a new phone, u will add xxx money further for a new phone, u are dissatsfied etc, but be prepared for a struggle. Probability of success is low but why buy the phone if u don't like it, you could've tested it before purchasing...

How is it distinct from CM? Anything it does significantly better? Would you recommend it over CM10 nightly?

AOKP is all about tweaking and customizing your device, status bar, themes etc. But Cyanogenmod is more about performance.

Hi All,

I can't post on Sean's thread since I am a new guy... ;)

Well - I have flashed custom rom from Sean's - seanzscreams :good: (SKy JB 1/10/12) and it's great - thank you for the great work,

Few issues I did found :

When using a car charger the phone gets really really hot...

The BT bug (cyanogen's 10 known) and I tested 4.4 fix which seems to work for me :) - although after 4.4 fix - my in call audio was routed to the speaker...??? Maybe there is something in the thread there - I should check...;)

I use an application which is called Peak stocks to follow on stocks - and it does not show the graph for some reason... (it was working fine on stock rom and on sky ICS)

also - I am missing the Stock voice SW from Samsung (which is actually Vlingo based,,,) it was working great rather than the voice commander used currently which is not recognizing my English very well...

The home screen shortcut edit does nםt work after you save - I tried adding a direct dial shortcut and it wasn't showing...

The phone responsiveness is quite good, personally I set the touch sensivity to 100%.

Missing also is the contact join function from various accounts like Skype, Google, whatsapp etc...

Overall for a development ROM it is very solid and good

Thanks for a great work on Skyrocket Jelly Bean :)

When pressing the Back button from the dialer - it will not go back to the main screen.

Had I was able to post my finding there I would have...

[General Questions and Answers] hellfreezover:

The graph that was not showing is now visible on peak stocks - to fix that I had to disable the "Force 2D apps to use GPU" under developer tab.

it now works :)

it might indicate something with the GPU processing on CM10?

Well,

It has been almost 24 hrs of use,

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loozacc:
First of all - if this is the wrong section, then i'm terribly sorry.

I have a serious issue with my Goclever A93 tablet. Some time ago i've decided to root the device as well as remove some of the useless, bundle apps however i do think i've removed a little too much.

The problem is the tablet properly uses the sync option to sync emails with my google account however i'm not able to download ANY app from Google Play Store. Whenever i'm trying to do so (either update a pre-installed app or simply download a new one), the download simply freezes.

IN other words, i select either UPDATE or DOWNLOAD for an app, then hit the ACCEPT & Download button and that's it. There is an information "Downloading ...", the progress bar is moving HOWEVER the download never starts!

I've tried a huge variety of solutions - i've updated the tablet's software (from 4.0.4 to 4.0.4 but a newer build), updated Google Play app to 3.5.19 (newest i guess), removed external SD card, did dozens of factory resets -still nothing.

I'm guessing, again, that i've removed too much system apps while in the root mode, nevertheless i do not know which ones i'm missing ;(

The device still has a warranty however if anyone has any idea how to fix the issue without sending the device for a repair - i'd be much obliged.

plz hlp ;( ;( ;( ;(
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pawelqwanacja:
I had simillar problem after the root with my goclever. You need to do a full format via Livesuite. At the beginning the software ask for the format mode; manditory or upgrade you need to choose the 1st one and confirm twice. suggested upgrade mode doesn't help in case of this problem.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loozacc:
Thank you Pawel, unfortunately this is not the case :/

I've tried simply every method i found on the net - i've flashed the device using the newest IMG from goclever.com site (dated to 29072012), i've installed the newest G Play App (3.8.19 i assume), i've formated the device like bilions of times, removed the external SD card.

The only apps/games i can install from the market are those over 50MB (which require donwloading additional file through WiFi); i've managed to install Batman and some other games but only because the additional file was required for download. As for the rest of the apps - NO method works.

I guess i'll need to send this since the warranty is still valid :(
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loozacc:
ok, found a solution. It turns out GoClever screwed the system IMAGE up. Reverted back to the older rom and it's working fine.

[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
You need to start by reading the STICKY posts in the General and Development sections. These are the first posts you will see in each section.

If you just want to root your current ROM, you are now in position to install a custom recovery and then you can flash Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip to gain root access.
[HTC Incredible S] srv.abhishek:
Normally the HTC Incredible S ROMs are rooted.. For steps to flash a new ROM, you can use the following steps:. You don't need to downgrade you HBOOT (new models have 2.0).

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hallstevenson:
As part of flashing every new ROM, I will always end up removing multiple apps that come pre-installed and I've always wanted to remove these BEFORE I flash it but never dug into it. Seems to me that re-signing the ZIP file after modifying may be necessary, but others say that's not needed. I've also seen people who remove apps say the ROM won't boot after flashing. Conflicting reports, basically....

What's involved with this ? And don't worry, the apps I remove have NEVER caused any issues by not being there.

Examples (from Sense-based ROMs) are:

Friendstream (and widgets)

Hello

I am a total newbie in regards to this.

I was wondering if creating a swap partition can help improve the phone performance and/or what other use can you give to it?

Also, how do you accomplish this?

Thank you!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ImSoBored:
Please press Thanks button if helped ^^

Swap can improve the phone performance, since the phone will use some of the SD Card memory as "RAM", but this "RAM" will be much slower, but the drawback is that it may reduce the SD Card life, since the phone will use the SD Card all the time. I don't know what other use you can give it. Sorry :)

You can download an app to do this here:

Google Play.

You need root to use it.
