[Blade General] mohitgujar:
Hi everyone,

A few question i wanna ask that are screwing me since last few days.. I have ZTE BLADE running CyanogenMod 7.2... I had followed karthikn's installation guide and successfully flashed cymrom... My questions are as follows:

1] If i partion my SD card and in near future it gets corrupt or i wanna use it for sum oth purpose, is it possible to change my sd card?

2] if i remove my Partioned sd card, will my blade work ? what if i remove it temporarily and again insert it?

3] What are Mod's (Beats audio,MegaBass etc) ?

4] How do i flash them and what do i need to backup b4 installing them?

5] What is the Max allowed optimal freq range i can clock my blade (..its lagging frequently) ?

Hope people help me out with this.... Would be great full for all the replies....:o
[Blade General] MrKiller2010:
3. The Beats Audio is a hidden feature. You wont be able to see it.

But the Mega Bass Is the DPS Manager. You can change alot of settings there.

4. You flash them via Clockwork mod the same way you flashed cyanogenmod 7.2

5. You should test it by your self. by increasing little and little until its stable.
[Blade General] Faiz Malkani:
1. Yes. You can change your SD card anytime

2. Yes. It'll work. Only your installed apps will be gone. If you remove it and reinsert it, reboot to get them back

3. Above

4. Above

5. Above. 710 MHz is the standard frequency accepted by Blade users, though some go up to 745 MHz
[Blade General] mohitgujar:
Can you pls also specify the Min value of the range... I personally keep it between 320-480 Hhz... anyway thanks for the reply bro...:o
[Blade General] mohitgujar:
thanks for the reply bro...:o

Can you pls also specify the Min value of the range... I personally keep it between 320-480 Hhz...

Also i had previously flashed a bravia engine Mod but nothing worked out... Ther's no diff in performance.. now to flash MegaBass do i need to erase the earlier Bravia Mod.. How can i erase the prev mod (In case if it is eating sum space?) :)
[Blade General] Faiz Malkani:
Minimum 125 works but 240 is the optimum frequency. The Bravia engine performance boost is slight and can only be noticed by seasoned users. Also, the mods are small script files. No bigger than 1MB. Plus they go to your ROM partition.

In short, they don't take space. If you wanna erase them, reflash the ROM
[Blade General] ufizo:
for me 652 MHz is the highest stable frequency, so it really depends on your phone.
[Verizon Droid Charge] chefthomas99:
I don't know if it's just me or is it difficult to take a nice & clear photo with the Charge? I have young girls and try to capture special moments, they end up blurry.

Any recommendations for an application/settings?
[Verizon Droid Charge] jco23:
wait till they get older.... j/k

I believe it's more of a hardware thing rather than an app. the shutter speed is only so fast - and even with some apps that take quick bursts, it can still be blurry.

that being said, I have found that Camera ICS (thanks Jihad Squad) to be the best for me. if your phone is rooted, then installing droidwall to block internet on this app will remove the ads.
[Verizon Droid Charge] chefthomas99:
Miles better than the rest! Thanks man.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Velocifero:
I haven't tried Camera ICS yet, but in trying to find a camera alternative, I tried many including Camera360 and a bunch of others. But I found stock to be the best (gonna try Camera ICS after this post). It has many good features and options compared to aftermarket. My settings are as follows:

Outdoor visibility: Unchecked

Focus mode: Auto focus

Scene mode: None

Timer: Off

Resolution: 2560x1920

White balance: Auto

Effects: Normal

ISO: Auto

Metering: Matrix

Anti-Shake: Checked

Auto contrast: Checked

Blink detection: Checked

Image quality: Superfine

Guidelines: Checked

Review: Unchecked

Shutter sound: Off

GPS Tag: Unchecked

IMO, the Guidelines and Anti-Shake options are the money options for the stock camera for taking decent pics.
[Verizon Droid Charge] chefthomas99:
^^^^ These settings and the stock camera are the best above all camera apps I've tried. Thanks!
[Verizon Droid Charge] tmanschuette:
Has anyone tried the build.prop edits concerning image quality and such?

(~: Tweaked out on Peace :~)
[Verizon Droid Charge] dwitherell:
The jpeg quality one is in tweaked - haven't tried any other ones.
[Verizon Droid Charge] stueycaster:
Are you tapping the screen on the spot you want to focus before you snap? I always get well focused pics.
[Verizon Droid Charge] chefthomas99:
Yes sir. No issues thus far.
[Verizon Droid Charge] stueycaster:
Ok. Just wanted to make sure since this hasn't been mentioned anywhere in the thread.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
Dont remember what apk its in. Its either in /system/app/systemui.apk, /system/framework/com.htc.resources.apk, or /system/framework/framework-res.apk. Use a zip manager like 7zip to open the apk and look for the pic file. When you find it, just copy and paste it to your desktop.

Hello,

All is in the title, where can I find stock boot.img ?

Thanks
[HTC One X] M@c|-|oR:
In your Nandroid backup, which you made before flasing custom ROM.;)

Search xda, there is a guide how to revert to stock from custom. The whole process is presented step by step, so you can do no damage.
[HTC One X] laurent56480:
OK thanks for your response but i haven't do a nandroid backup

Can you give me the link of the guide.
[HTC One X] Zomere86:
Maybe http://www.xda-developers.com/android/htc-one-x-completely-stock-rom-and-rooting-tools-available-before-release/

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phenom97:
Hey guys, I apologize if this has been answered but I was wondering if there was any way at all to change the soft keys for the Stock 4.1.2 rom?

I prefer to stay stock and I did try an AOKP rom, having a menu and a settings soft key would be awesome.

I am indeed rooted.

Thanks for any help.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ryan35310:
Nope. You need a custom ROM. Might I recommend CodeNameAndroid. It is like AOKP and CM10 combined almost. It is very stable. Click on it on my signature to get directed to it.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mnoguti:
Damn! It's the wrong forum. I was looking about softkeys/Galaxy Nexus phone and i didn't realize i fell into a Nexus 7 forum.... So sorry! I don't know if i should delete my reply. Should I?

Actually, you can change the softkeys whitout a installing a custom rom. You'' need to download it but wont' install it...

i'm running takju, stock jelly bean 4.1.2 and followed a video on Youtube called "LG Nexus 4 Softkeys on Galaxy Nexus | How To Guide"

The only thing i did a little bit different was running a clockworkmod recovery instead... but that was just me.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tamanaco:
My apologies in advance if I'm a bit off topic given the JB version on my N7, but I didn't want to start another thread about modifying softkeys. The answer might also be very obvious to some, but I just want to make sure I'm not searching for the impossible. I have an Nexus 7 running JB 4.2 unlocked, rooted and with TWRP recovery. All I'd like to find out is if there is a way to move the back softkey to the right and move the apps preview softkey to the left. I have a SGSIII that I use most of the day and it has the back hardware key on the right... and so I keep hitting the preview key instead of the back key on the N7. My understanding is that this can only be done with some custom ROMs that are deodexed and not with the odexed stock ROMs. Is this correct?... Is there no app, tool or hack (flash zip file) that can be used on a rooted stock N7 that can either replace the necessary files or deodex the files that need to be modified, make the changes and odex them again? If not, why not? I'm sure I'm missing the obvious.
[LG Nitro HD] ShadowOf:
CWM offers the volume rocker/sleep wake UI for the Nitro for free, available through ROM Manager. You can upgrade through ROM Manager for $1.99 to the touch interface (I had the touch interface in 5.8.x.x recovery).

But Clockworkmod offers the Touch Recovery .IMG for free here: http://goo.gl/iC5rz AS long as you're willing to download and do a couple lines of code, it is FREE.

Following the instructions here (http://goo.gl/X0Xwh) I got CWM Touch Recovery 6.0.1.5 working on my rooted AT&T Nitro HD (P930).

Backup your existing recovery:
1) [COLOR="Magenta"]cat /dev/block/mmcblk0p13 > /sdcard/recovery-backup.img[/COLOR]

Flash the new recovery by:
1) Download the recovery .img and rename it "recovery.img"
2) Copy the recovery.img to your /sdcard
3) Via terminal emulator or adb shell execute:
[COLOR="Magenta"]
su
cd /sdcard
cat recovery.img > /dev/block/mmcblk0p13[/COLOR]

All Done!
Now to Boot into recovery , press the vol down+pwr button , when it asks you to factory reset , tap twice the pwr button to confirm (dont worry it wont format your device)
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
Alright, so I know drumist brought this up in another thread, but I think it'd be better to continue the discussion here. 6.0.1.5 appears to have deficiencies in terms of backups. drumist said they actually completed for him after a long wait, but they weren't even finishing for me. He also stated that he was left with a large "blobs" folder about 400mb which I observed as well. So I did some research into things. I found that I was able to get a successful backup by rebooting to CWM, changing the backup type from dup to tar, and then initiating the backup. Afterward there was no residual blobs folder and it still took a damn long time, but I think that's probably because of the amount of data I have. It's been a long time since I've done a backup and I remember it taking quite a while before as well. If anybody discovers anything else interesting, feel free to post it here :)

I haven't worked up the courage to wipe my phone and restore the backup to see if that operation works properly.
[LG Nitro HD] ShadowOf:
Thanks for the note. I ran a backup and it seemed SLOW, but did complete. Looking in Astro File Manager the folder it produced under CWM Backups was very small 27 MB, compared to my last backup of 1.37 GB.

I hope to have time tomorrow morning and I will run a comparison. I'll run a backup using 6.0 Touch, 6.0 Recovery, and 5.8 Touch. I'll look at Time it takes, Battery it consumes, and File size of the Backup Folder.
[LG Nitro HD] noemtfj:
Not that small if you look at the "blobs" folder
[LG Nitro HD] ShadowOf:
Forgive my ignorance. Is the BLOBS folder new to the 6.0 backups? Or was it around in 5.8?
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
It's new in 6.0.

If my understanding is correct, the blobs folder is a deliberate way to reduce the size of multiple backups on the SD card. It's actually a good idea IMO, and the problem isn't that it uses the blobs. The problem is that the backup just takes forever and, in Malnilion's case, didn't work at all.

Personally I'd just recommend people who already have 5.8.2.0 installed to just leave it for the time being.
[LG Nitro HD] ShadowOf:
I agree. I upgraded to 6.0 Touch yesterday and performed a backup, which created a Backup folder and the Blobs folder. Deleting the backup in CWM does not delete the Blobs folder, so if you downgrade from 6.0 to 5.8 you can manually delete the Blobs folder to free up space.

To compare, in order, I cleaned cache, fixed permissions, flashed new recovery, cleaned cache, fixed permissions, booted to recovery and created a new backup, which I deleted after measuring (then I repeated this procedure for the next recovery). And here are my results:

5.8.2.0 Touch Recovery

Backup Folder Size - 1.43GB

Blobs Folder Size - N/A (0MB)

Battery Usage - 6%

Time Elapsed - 11 minutes

6.0.1.5 Touch Recovery

Backup Folder Size - 30MB

Blobs Folder Size - 1.33GB

Battery Usage - 19%

Time Elapsed - 42 minutes

6.0.1.5 Recovery

Backup Folder Size - 30MB

Blobs Folder Size - 1.32GB

Battery Usage - 19%

Time Elapsed - 38 minutes

The folder size totals in 6.0 are smaller than in 5.8, 1.36GB compared to 1.43GB. I did not do multiple back ups, so I don't know how the filesize would grow, but it sounds like two backups would be 2x the size, but with 6.0 it would be significantly smaller, depending how much of the system/data changed. For me the smaller filesize does not make it worth waiting 30 extra minutes. I'll stay with 5.8.2.0 as well.
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
I just want to throw this out there to everyone and reiterate that it appears 6.x CWM introduced a new backup method called dup whereas previously tar was the only option. dup is set to be default and appears to be what is buggy for our devices, but if you manually reboot to CWM there's a setting to change your backup type back to tar. I just ran a backup initiated through Rom Manager and it did a tar backup that completed with no issues, so it appears that once you change the setting to tar, it's saved for future backups. You don't end up with a blobs folder either.

Edit, read this post from our man koush for more info.
[LG Nitro HD] -ReaL-:
Do not install CWM 6.0.1.5 or 6.0.1.4!!! It can't mount and format partitions so it can't install zip's - bootloop.

Cannot go to recovery

Hey guys!

I'm a new-bie with LG Nitro HD. I cannot go to Recovery even though I do the same things as instruction. I search through Google and XDA but there's no help. Anyone help me! I feel nearly disappointed! :crying:

long time no see ~~~

su

cd /sdcard

cat bc64-recovery.img > /dev/block/mmcblk0p13
[LG Nitro HD] ShadowOf:
What is the name of your .IMG? Is it "bc64-recovery.img" at the root of your sdcard? Remember to save the .IMG to the SDcard root, and rename it. I recommend "recovery.img" but anything is fine as long as your terminal command matches.

Update: The first backups where long ~40 minutes. Subsequent backups have been about half that at ~20 minutes. Still longer than 5.8xxx, at 11 minutes. But the total filesize is smaller if you keep multiple backups.

Guys today I tried installing MIUI v4. I followed all the steps mentioned in the thread. I installed everything properly but my phone is stuck onthe android logo. This happened when I rebooted my phone after installing MIUI. So please tell me what is the problem. Also when I am truing to restore some type of error is cropping up. Please help.

Before installing make backup wipe dalvik cache , cache, do factory reset and try again .. hope it helps
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] pranjaldixit:
Actually I tell the whole story now. When I was making backup of my stock ROM the sd card showed low on space. So I removed that SD card and inserted the one which came with the Phone. On that I installed all the required zip files. Then I made backup of the stock ROM and the data. After that I followed these steps mentioned here -:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1863260

According to the steps I did not did wipe davik cache etc. after instaling the ROM I did wipe factory and data reset and wipe cache partition. After following all the steps mentioned I rebooted my phone as mentioned. But after rebooting the phone is stuck on android logo. I then again went into recovery and tried to wipe dalvik cache the confirmation page that appears before wiping anything is not coming. Also when I tried to restore my phone to the stock ROM an error message is coming. So I am not able to restore to the stock ROM. This is the whole thing. So guys please help. I hope I have not bricked my phone. Any solutions?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] AiphNday:
As long as your phone can go to recovery mode it wasnt bricked..

May i know what recovery that you use to install the rom??
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] pranjaldixit:
Mate I used latest version of ClockWork Mod to install the ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] AiphNday:
What version it is??

If you are install custom rom from stock rom,its better to use px-cwmV2..

If test it,and it minimize the risk of stuck on android logo..

After that you can change the recovery to other version that you want..
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] pranjaldixit:
I think the version is 5.0.2.7. Also when I am switching off the phone after sometime it is automatically switching on by itself. So for the time being I have removed the battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] AiphNday:
If you use that version,use the version that can support rfs+ext4 file system..

Stock rom use rfs file system and custom rom usually use ext4 file system,so therefore you have to use recovery that support both..
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] pranjaldixit:
Could you please tell me how to proceed? Because the backup of stock ROM is showing problems.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] AiphNday:
I suggest that you flash your phone to stock rom again via odin..

Then change your recovery,i was preffered px-cwmV2,but i dont know is the link still alive or not..

Flash the recovery,reboot..

Then enter recovery mode again,install rom..

[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] phreak_or:
If you have working recovery it's no use to flash stock ROM, just flash px-cwmV2 http://www.mediafire.com/file/y1xy6g2y5tpp1fg/px-cwm-v2.zip.

Then wipe all, including dalvik, flash desired ROM, wipe all again (including dalvik), and you should be good to go.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] pranjaldixit:
I hope you must have read my post about the problem. I have clockwork 5.0.2.7. The backup I made is alao showing some error when I tried to restore it using CWM. So please guide how to proceed.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] phreak_or:
I have. As i said, you could just try CWM v2.

BUT to be absolutely safe flash a stock ROM using Odin, see http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=20397915&postcount=3.

After u flash the stock ROM, go to default recovery, factory reset, boot the rom, shutdown.

Flash the desired version of CWM using Odin or trough recovery, and then flash the custom ROM u want.

For me CWM 5.0.2.7 ext4+ RFS couldn't wipe dalvik, nor could it mount /system. So I used cwmV2.

Good luck!

when you flash firmware with odin, it will also flash a new recovery.

just enter recovery like normally, and flash cwm-v2.zip

after its done you pull the battery out, and boot into recovery again.

now you have clockworkmod installed

Copy px-cwm-V2.zip on your SD
