[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] sajanNOPPIX:
I want to flash the 'stock everthing' .tar from SAMMOBILE. I've done this with Odin before, but don't have access to a Windows machine at the moment and am looking to do this with Heimdall. I am on Xubuntu.

I installed the latest version Heimdall and the frontend, tried to load the .tar from SAMMOBILE, but it errored out saying the 'firmware.xml' was missing.

Assuming the firmware.xml file just held information about the package for Heimdall to read, I didn't find it a big deal.

I then installed an older version of Heimdall thinking that it wouldn't require a firmware.xml file. So now when I open up Heimdall, I see the following.

So I then went on to extract the tar on my computer and have the following files..

Screenshot - Attached

I guess my question is, which of those files go into which fields so that I can flash all of them and return to stock.

Thanks.

Bump?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cdshepherd:
The last time I checked heimdall didn't support our device. But its been a while since I checked.

If you Google search "how to create a heimdall package" you'll get plenty of answers:thumbup:
[HTC Desire S] TeddyOFLove:
How many hours of Video recording can i get from my DS. Atm i am using Sabsa prime 6.5 sense 4.0 Ics ROM with tweaked8.6 kernel. But the question is how many hours can i get from my battery of continious record if i am charged at 100% to zero.

I will be participating in 8 hours seminar at my college and i thought of recording it. Dont know if battery can handle 8 hours of recording, even if i set max freq t o 768 and set UV.

So has anyone tried it? Should i go agead and try or should i barrow camcorder from some friend(dont know if there is enough time, couse its on Tuesday)? Maybe if i remove sim card it will give a huge batttery improvement?
[HTC Desire S] SimonTS:
The only way you are going to find out is to test it - but I would be amazed if it lasted that long. While recording the screen will be on, and that is the biggest sucker of your battery - far more so than mobile data or phone signal.
[HTC Desire S] rain987:
If u are using ur phone u better get a nice spot to place the phone. And u can't be too far either, doubt u will be able to get a clear voice. Or u can try to get those in charge of the pa to record the audio for u, that way u can just sync it together.
[HTC Desire S] snaplasherx:
I've read elsewhere that I can root my phone and keep S-ON by flashing 4EXT Touch recovery and then from recovery mode installing su-3.1.3.zip to apply root and superuser to my stock ICS ROM. My first question is does this work and is there a guide for it I missed.

The second issue is, in the same thread I read it would wipe my data and apps. This is fine if it's just music and pictures etc but I'm wondering will I keep contacts etc in my SIM card? If I will, that's great.

Thanks for reading!
[HTC Desire S] rain987:
1st question, I only read and didn't tried it out. So I have no comment.

2nd question, just sync ur contact with Google. Just save what u wan on the sd card and back it up in ur PC.

[HTC Desire S] Aquous:
1st question: yes, but only if you're htcdev unlocked

2nd question: that is part of the htcdev unlock process. I *think* it won't touch your sim card. Either way, you can always remove it when doing the actual unlock from within fastboot.
[HTC One S] th3ant:
Just a bit of research I thought may be interesting... Enter the poll and add any comments if you feel necessary :good:

How can I tell?

If you don't already know the S4 model usually clocks around 1.5ghz and the S3 clocks at 1.7ghz which you can check with several apps on the market. Another way to check is the model number on the box, Z560e is S3 and Z520e is S4.

Prediction:

I recon there is going to be more S4 people around due to this forum being used by a lot of people in the regions that only sell them. Although saying that, I bought my One S in the UK which should have been an S4 model but turned out to be a S3 and I can't refund it :(

Results so far:

Interesting, 2 days in (23/10/2012) and the results are as follows.

S3 - 13 Votes - 30.23%

S4 - 30 Votes - 69.77%

Don't Know - 0 Votes - 0%

Did I not say there would be more S4 users? ;D .. No brainer really..

25/10/2012:

S3 - 25 Votes - 35%

S4 - 53 Votes -74.65%

Don't Know - 0 Votes - 0%

S3 percentage is slowly decreasing..

And who knows, if there is enough S3 users dev's/chefs may consider whipping up a few more S3 Roms.. ;D

Also, Tell me if this is the wrong section for this poll, but I felt general should be fine for most things including polls ;)
[HTC One S] saculetz:
S3 here. I also didn't know what I was buying :( it is not a bad phone, but it is not the best either

Did you get it on T-Mobile UK contract? Is it branded?
[HTC One S] mikness360:
just to know,I think that devs have s4 version,so they didn't get any s3 phone on which they could work,that's my thought

but despite that I hope there will be somebody,that good soul that will do the job :laugh:
[HTC One S] stylus1828:
torxx does not have a HOS with S3 processor but he still cooked a great rom for us!

L.E.

And tweaks! :D
[HTC One S] th3ant:
I got my phone off Amazon.co.uk unlocked and unbranded. I did however talk to the seller before getting it and he said it was from the UK (Carphone Warehouse to be precise) I have a feeling he may have lied as the CPWH website says it sells the S4 model :C Oh well, live and learn eh?

Yeah I have a feeling your right apart from torxx who has done a great job! Why can't more people be like that.. or should I say why can't I make roms :')
[HTC One S] usaff22:
I'm trying to learn, but will start off with the S4 and maybe make one for the S3 if It's good.

You have an S3?

[HTC One S] th3ant:
Nice to see a lot of replies! It's still about 30% of people that have an S3 so as I said it would be a shame to leave them all out :( Anyway thanks to all for the help, and continue to vote if you haven't even though I (and hopefully you) will have seen what you want to see by now.

Hey guys,

im really desperate about this. I searched for 2 hours but could not find a single firmware from german t-mobile. It doesnt matter which one, of ics or gb. I need the branded firmware for a warranty case. I hope you can help me.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] oache:
not needed relock bootloader then use pc companion
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] alphaboy:
Firstly thank you but could you be a little more detailed. Is the branded rom flashed when i restore with PC Companion.or what am i supposed to do with the tool? I dont have time to test it now.

Thank you for your replies,

alphaboy
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] oache:
The relock botlooader file you will find in xs development topic with all explication then use pc companian .branded firmware usealy mean some apps from your mobile operator

Nebunia lu Salam
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] alphaboy:
If i restore with PC Companion i will get the stock unbranded firmware, but what i need IS the branded firmware with the startup logo and the apps.

Its about my local t-mobile shop accepting the warranty case. They could deny it if they see the device is unbranded..
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] oache:
Just a ideea relock bootloader and make a bootloop,the rest is up to you to lie them that you have receive an update etc...

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jayjojayson:
great tutorial, i think this "how to" with the chosen options of beckzz should also work on other tablets. i will test your options on my acer iconia a510 this week and report it to you...

so maybe we can open a list of supported tablets for PimpMyRom..

greetings
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] seeknom:
Awesome work, thanks for this, trying it out right now!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] beckzz:
Great, let us know how it works!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] msfguard:
we should run what HDPI? cant remember what this tablet was
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] neckbonest:
that is correct

---------- Post added at 08:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:05 PM ----------

also if you force gpu 2d rendering, some apps will not work.

just remember if you check that and you are having isues with any apps try it without checking it
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Subsonic44:
Nice job Beckzz! I tried this a couple of days ago and it actually slowed my prime down so I restored back to where I started. Just reapplied with your suggestions and indeed it does seem slightly faster. And I'm running data2sd too.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] neckbonest:
i use just bout the same options as you do beckzz. i can confirm that sony walkman works also.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] beckzz:
Hey, thanks for your replies!

Yes, HDPI is correct, will add that later... ill also test Sony walkman and then add it.

Thanks again!

EDIT: Ok i added a changelog part to the op and added data2sd Kernel (confirmed by Subsonic44) and the proper PmR Version for Prime (HDPI, thanks to neckbonest) to the guide. And again thanks to neckbonest for giving the advice on "force GPU 2d rendering" - has been added too

Grz
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] beckzz:
Updates!

So i tested some more features today with very good results, check out the changelog!

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rege0039:
Great thread, thanks for starting it.

When installing PIMPmyROM do I need to do a full wipe etc and then re-install everything ?

Anyone have any experience of loosing any data ?

If I'm just using HB1.3 with data2sd kernel (one that came with it) is there anything special to do in the way of preparation for the install ?

Thanks. Will have a go at this.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pooblej:
Can you share some benchmarks before and after this mod to tempt people!?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] McJesus15:
Anyone tested the beats audio tweak? If not I'll do it later.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] beckzz:
Hey, if you already tried some other Scripts like SuperCharger v6 or anything else, it is recommended to make a clean install.

But its not really neccessary! I would say: try it! :) Make a Nadroid before you start. If it fails, or you get strange results you'll have to do a clean install and start again. But i think it should be fine.

For testing purposes i've made a clean install with all my apps, settings and stuff - did a nandroid of that and for every test i restore the clean install again.

jep i'll do that today or tomorrow. After applying the new steps yesterday i did 4186 points with Quadrant Standard-Edition...which is the highest result i ever made with the prime so far...was pretty amazing. Hope i can do it again, then i'll make a screenshot and post!

Not atm, if you could do so would be great.

Grz
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] McJesus15:
Alright so I flashed the Beats Audio mod and booted. So far no issues and combined with the Sony Walkman mod it sounds very, very good. I have tested with headphones and sound on my $10 headphones that outperform most $30 headphones. Only noted issue is sometimes if the song is more rock/metal the system won't be tuned for that so just play the the fx manager and it can get to an acceptable quality. THERE'S SO MUCH BASS X)!

EDIT: Running Hb1.3 with CleanKernal.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] beckzz:
Added screenshot with benchmark results from a pimped Prime...

@McJesus15: will add it soon...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jayjojayson:
test on acer iconia a510

since yesterday i test PmR with your described options on my acer iconia a510 and it work, no FC's or something like that..

but my score is not growing up in benchmarktests, i lose some points.. don't really know why... but the sytem is stable and smooth...:good:

also i had see the following option it not necessary:

Choose from the list below:

[--] Add Open-VPN support

[--] Beats Audio

[--] Install Adrenaline Boost script

[x] Sony Walkman

[x] Block Ads

[x] Un-Block Ads

you have to chose Block Ads or Un-Block Ads, but not both..

the first one will set the file to blocking ads and the second option will delete the file for blocking ads..

i hope that help a little bit...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] beckzz:
hey dude,

nice to hear!

[x] Block Ads

[x] Un-Block Ads

thought this was clear to everybody, same for:

[x] Remove Android Logger

[x] Re-Enable Android Logger

its just tagged as "confirmed working", maybe i'll add a little hint tomorrow..

I made this theme for my wife, but thought others might enjoy it too, so here it is! ;) As always, big thanks to Huexxx for making this possible! CWM flashable ZIP attached.

To install themed "Settings.apk" and "Contacts.apk" files, copy or push to /system/app, setting permissions to rw- r-- r--

R2 update includes:

- Accuracy enchancements/improvements

- Increased battery icon size to match that of SGS3

- Themed Settings.apk

10/29/12 update includes:

- Themed Contacts.apk (incl. dialer)
[LG Optimus Black] yekk34:
Thanks this's ssuper which launcher do you use :)
[LG Optimus Black] Alucard:
Not good mate it fd up font of the rom letters not showing.
[LG Optimus Black] grayduck:
Are you referring to the black-on-black text issue with certain "ongoing" notifications like Downloads, Uploads, or Now Playing in Music? Some apps, like those mentioned, use their own theming XML files for notification text coloring. I prefer to use the more ICS/JB authentic white-on-black text style, and for the very few apps I regularly use that have this issue, it's worth the trade-off for me. If you're handy with XML, you can manually edit the appropriate file(s) within the apk for any apps experiencing this to correct it, but for me, it's not really worth the effort. This is a universal problem for all Gingerbread ROM themes with white-on-dark notification text styles.
[LG Optimus Black] grayduck:
I'm using Holo Launcher, tweaked to resemble SGS3 launcher.
[LG Optimus Black] Robsen87:
Nice theme, which weatherwidget are you using? :)
[LG Optimus Black] grayduck:
It's BeWeather.
[LG Optimus Black] rrgrrg:
please post the modded holo launcher :)
[LG Optimus Black] grayduck:
I actually modded a Holo Launcher-compatible icon pack that I purchased from the Play Store. Since it was a paid app, though, I can't post it here. I have, however, attached the SGS3 icon files to the OP so that others can do the same. Most Launcher Pro icon packs are compatible with Holo Launcher. I only adjusted settings in Holo Launcher to match the SGS3 launcher so that my changes wouldn't be overwritten every time it was updated. Hope that helps.
[LG Optimus Black] morx:
icons in phone settings menu, should be colored.... :(

Overall, great theme !
[LG Optimus Black] bluehunter9:
Would it also be possible to theme the dialer?
[LG Optimus Black] grayduck:
Thanks! :) The icons you're referring to are actually in "settings.apk," a separate file altogether. I may be able to find the time to theme that file too at some point. That, and maybe the dialer file as well, we'll see...
[LG Optimus Black] timvdhoorn:
The battery icon is too small
[LG Optimus Black] Grakel:
Really awesome theme, Im actually enjoying it. Thank you sooo much for this :D

Just dialer and settings left to fully fit sgs3 theme, it'd be awesome if you themed them too :)

Oh and I also like to see the percentage inside the battery icon, but thats kind of subjective.

Keep it up dude! And thank you again :)
[LG Optimus Black] Robsen87:
As Grakel already said, thats a theme to enjoy (I do too) :)

Some things to do here and there, rly hope you keep it updated. It's the best SGS3 Theme i've seen so far!

Thanks for your work ;)
[LG Optimus Black] didi_ghost:
I like the theme, but i just want to request something. Is there any way possible the have the battery icon with percentage? Or recover back the Zeus 7.0.3 Theme?

Regards.
[LG Optimus Black] didi_ghost:
Noob question xD. How can i use these icons you shared? They are packed, how to put them to use in Holo Launcher?

Regards.
[LG Optimus Black] NoNaYo:
i men, i use Holo Launcher, how can i use those icons ??? O.o?
[LG Optimus Black] yinfox:
nice;)
[LG Optimus Black] Mini Franki:
Nice work!

But its not a complete theme... Miss a lot of thing like sms, dialer, contact, setting, calls, group, fonts, etc.
[LG Optimus Black] grayduck:
R2 update in OP! :)
[LG Optimus Black] grayduck:
The easy way -- Unpack the icon files to a folder on your SD card, then long-press on one of your home screen icons, tap "edit," then tap on the picture of the current icon to select one that you copied to your SD card.

The slightly more complex way (the way I use) -- Download a LauncherPro-compatible icon pack, and replace the appropriate files in the icon pack's apk with the ones from my archive file. Copy/push the modded icon pack apk file to /system/app, fix permissions to rw- r-- r--. All you need to do then is open Holo Launcher's "Launcher settings," go to "Appearance Settings," and choose your modded icon pack under "Icon Pack." This will preserve your icons regardless of how many times Holo Launcher is updated.
[LG Optimus Black] Robsen87:
Thanks for updating the theme, hope you'll keep it up to date :)
[LG Optimus Black] didi_ghost:
Thank you for answering. Can you please suggest me an icon pack and explain how to convert the RAR file with the icons into an .apk ?

Sorry for being a noob :s

Regards.
[LG Optimus Black] grayduck:
Added themed dialer/contacts to OP... :)
[LG Optimus Black] rrgrrg:
can i flash it in cm7 ??
[LG Optimus Black] Robsen87:
Thanks for the contacts.apk :)

Well the contacts itself aren't themed, are they?

For me, only the dialer have changed :)
[LG Optimus Black] Mini Franki:
That will be possible to make a 1 flashing file when you will make the final release(when the theme will be complete)?

Good progress! Keep working

Im hurry to put this theme on my phone when it will be finish
[LG Optimus Black] dare14:
Cn i flash to other gb rom reply me plz i nees to flash soon
[LG Optimus Black] elderap:
how to uninstall?
[LG Optimus Black] grayduck:
The easiest way would be to wipe cache & dalvik cache, and then just re-flash Zeus.
[LG Optimus Black] grayduck:
You could try, but my guess is that there would be problems, since they come from a different base.
[LG Optimus Black] grayduck:
You could theoretically install this theme on any GB-based non-Zeus rom, but in my experience, you'll probably have issues - particularly with the "power dialog" screen. For this reason, I would only recommend installing it on Zeus.
[LG Optimus Black] rrgrrg:
nice working mate , i suggest changing the sub-color from the aqua blue to dark blue ,it will be much better
[LG Optimus Black] Grakel:
I modded this theme to my own personal taste.

I just wanted to share it, in case someone wants to use it as well.

It just adds centered clock, now the slidebars (even the brightness slidebar at notification dropdown menu) are all green (instead of blue, which dismatches the theme), the battery shows the percentage, and I dunno if Im missing something.

Im in a hurry right now, so I cant post a screenshot with the changes, but well, here it goes.

Ok maps it locks on, GPS status app shows sats but no fix on any of them even outside. Tried flashing the sgs3 GPS fix, the Google universal fix, and still nothing. I mean it says lock in status when I open maps, and has me in the general area, but no luck with nav. I've tried restoring backups, no dice, even with fixes. Never installed an aosp Rom. So Idk what happened this weekend worked on my way to the hotel for this trip, and I go today to set it for home and it wouldn't lock on and has nav stuck in that parking lot. Even after restores, or a full wipe and new Rom install, uninstall maps, everytime I reopen nav it's still I'm that lot and I'm not even in the same town.
