[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HANDSY:
The black background is the inverted version exactly the same in every way as a normal play store app. The black background is a power saving mod as it's less for the screen light up . The multi DPI is so it can recognise devices with differing DPI settings. (i think) Its an option to change in settings. Stock slim is dpi 182 i prefer 240 . Multi dpi play store will work with both
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Calliddus:
Ah alright, I didn't realize the black background had power saving purposes, I thought it was either a glitch or just supposed to look cool. I just got done messing with the DPI settings. I think I settled on 210? 182 was a bit too small. Thanks for your help and info.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Parashock:
Slim ICS / JB on S ll

Hello Calliddus.

I do not intend to hack your thread, just need some help.

Am new to the forum and to android. Have read the noob tutorials posted around.

I bought a new Samsung Galaxy S 2 which came with ICS 4.0.3 running on it.

I intend to install Slim bean ( if possible ), or Slim ICS (if its more practical) on the phone.

You seem to know what you are talking about, and I can't post on the Development threads in the forum.

Hence if it isn't must trouble, can you please guide me through the following ?

1. I tried looking, and since I couldn't find anything, would i be right if I assumed that installing a Slim ROM (Either ICS 4.0.4 or JB) over the Stock Samsung 4.0.3 , would not be something wrong or undesirable to do ?

2. I am not a very heavy or avid user, but I would like a simple, plain and glitch free OS with the advance customization options, so should I just stick to Slim ics or should i think about Slim bean (assuming its possible to install it on my device) ?

3. What backup method would you suggest, assuming I will fail in my upgrade and will have to go back to stock once again? ( Nandroid, CWM recovery, etc.. )

I have a lot more questions, but not as important.

Your help will be appreciated.

I just installed the latest nightly (10/23) on a captivate for my GF. I used the 80 meg Latest Gapps file. Why is there no Camera app on the phone? Gallery does exist and works. I installed Camera Zoom FX as a temp solution but I'd rather have the stock app. It's less confusing to use.

Thank you so much sir! That did it. It's not a bad flash as far as I can tell. Simply the camera app was MISSING! I placed it where you said to and set the proper permissions and it works great! You are a life saver!

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bolini900:
Hi

Im running SlimBean 2.7 on my device and normally in companion with francos kernel. Earlier this evening I tried another kernel, faux Mainline Edition Max @ 1.4 GHz Quad, GPU @ 512 MHz. The installation went fine and the deviced booted up as it should. I played some Batman for about 30 minutes and had no issues whatsoever.

A few minutes later (after I was done playing) the device freezes. I can still turn on and off the display but it wont react on anything else. So I hard rebooted the device pressing the power button for 7 seconds. When im all booted up I decide to reboot into recovery to revert back to francos kernel and this is when all the spookiness starts.

When I try to reboot (or shutdown) it get stuck at "Device is rebooting/shutting down...", when I try to boot in to recovery with the volume keys pressed down the bootloader starts, but when I choose recovery the device freeze at the Google logo. I then read somewhere to try the same thing with the USB-cable plugged in to the computer, so I tried that. Sadly the bootloader only starts up, but the device won't react to neither pressing the volume keys noir the power button.

Also have tried to reboot in to recovery using the menu in ROM Manager and also in francos kernel downloader app, but same thing happends here, it get stuck while trying to reboot.

Any suggestions on what I should do?

Alright so, I'm trying to flash my QMobile Noir A2, also known as MyPhone A818 also known as MicroMax A45 PUNK. But qMobile is different, same firmware but when i turn off the phone, remove batter, re insert and plug it in. PC Detects the "MT65x PreLoader" And so does the SP Flash tool which I use to flash a custom ROM (Pre-Rooted) to the phone. But then, my phone shows the battery charging logo and PC no longer detects it. Is there anyway I can get around this? I tried EVERY method of rooting so please don't mention that.

Thanks :)

So to make a long story long! I have a beautiful almost 10 year old daughter who is in need of a phone and I have a droid inc that was giving to me a while back but never was used.. Well I went to power it on and it would just get stuck on the incredible screen..So i did some research on xda and decided to give this a shot through hboot http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1944012 it seemed to quick to be true which I was correct because it still pretty much does the same thing but I did notice some differences.. I noticed the charging light now comes on when plugged in, the white droid incredible screen looks different then past, also the date on the hboot screen changed from 2010 to 2012.. Any help at all would be super! I am attaching some pictures to show what I get.. Please help times are a little tough and I cant really afford to go out and spend $$ on a new phone..

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zimeron:
Best bet is to flash the latest stock RUU. You can find instructions all over on how to do it and you can find the files here: http://dinc.does-it.net/Stock_Images/
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
Either the ruu you used the first time was corrupt, or you may need to backup your sdcard to a pc, format it fat32 and then put only the PB31IMG.zip back on it in no folders. The lates ruu is here http://dinc.does-it.net/Stock_Images/4.08.605.15/PB31IMG.zip. If that dosent fix it you will need to root the phone and get a custom recovery on there.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zachf714:
Yep..install the android sdk and get the platform tools folder pack. Go to htcdev.com register and skip the boot loader update just unlock it and install TWRP recovery .. Download from the TWRP website I forget the URL right now.. From there rename the recovery image to recovery.img put the phone back to fast boot and open a window inside the platform tools folder.. You should be able to get the download from and s-off guide.. Anyways plug the phone in and type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img.. Then reboot boot loader hit boot loader and press the power button and go to recovery and hit power... From there you can mount the phone as a USB drive transfer cm7 or touch of blue my favorite gingerbread choices and flash it .. And flash the gapps package with cm7 to ;) hope that helps a littel
[HTC Wildfire S] Max-E-Moose:
I was messing with a friends Wildfire S recently and changed his ROM to CM7.2 as he seemed to like Cyanogen on another phone.

While adding some tweaks I discovered this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1905483

It's a guide to adding Jelly Bean transition animations to Gingerbread ROMs!!

I had a bit of trouble modding the framework-res.apk but the thread-starter, Dinhodroid, was kind enough to edit one for me and it has worked really well.

Here's hoping someone is interested!!
[HTC Wildfire S] Nightshadow931:
I guess you should have attached something ?
[HTC Wildfire S] Max-E-Moose:
I was going to attach my modded framework-res.apk but then I realized that someone may try to use it on the wrong ROM and I didn't want to go on too long in the first post. :)

I will attach the modded one for CM7.2 (cm-7-20120616-UNOFFICIAL-marvel). <--------------------------------ONLY FOR THIS ROM.

You can probably create another one for other GB ROM's but the attached is only for CM7.2 mentioned.

To use it, put it into the ROM.zip before you flash the ROM (Use winrar the delete the old one from "system/framework" and then drag and drop the modded one in it's place).

Have you unlocked your bootloader?

[Motorola Photon 4G] mystaku:
I got a used Motorola Photon that has Android 2.3.5 (build 254_12) and it has an unlocked bootloader. After going through numerous posts in XDA I came to know that 2.3.5 doesn't support bootloader unlocking. I asked the guy I bought it from and he said that initially it had MoPho 2.3.4 - he unlocked it, upgraded it to CM10 JB rom and then downgraded it back to 2.3.5 (as JB was unstable). I confirmed my MoPho has an unlocked bootloader from here ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1650520 ). It's also rooted.

So I just wanted to know, are there any risks in installing a custom kernel/rom since my MoPho's OS ver is 2.3.5 ? Are there any internal conflicts that might occur since my OS version/build is different - one that doesn't allow unlocking of bootloader and root access?
[Motorola Photon 4G] hoslayer13:
No there aren't any major risks. Just make sure the kernel corresponds to the system you are using. For instance, if your using cm7 and want to overclock, make sure to use a kernel built for it.

Most ROMs are flashed with the kernel it needs to boot. Version 2.3.5 could be thought of as just another ROM. To flash something different, make a backup with your recovery then wipe and install the ROM of your choice.

Just be sure to us common sense and not to accept any ota update because it could lock your bootloader and brick your phone. Be sure to look at the stickies for a ton more information
[Motorola Photon 4G] na7q:
do as you please :) no risks with anything really. only phones that took the 2.3.5 OTA update are locked. or new factory restored ones. the previous user put the 2.3.5 update on their in a safe manor that doesn't lock the phone. :silly:
[Motorola Photon 4G] mystaku:
I've the 254_12 build. And (I think, I'm not sure) the OTA update is probably the only way to update your system to 254_12.

What I'm not able to understand is how he could have downgraded from a CM10 JB rom to 2.3.5(254_12) without locking the bootloader. Is there anyway to do so? :confused:

All the root/unlock guides in XDA and other forums warn us, before proceeding to unlock, to ensure that our MoPho has 2.3.5 (198_7)or below to unlock/root. Shouldn't I be worried about it? :confused:

Here's a screenshot of my system specs.
[Motorola Photon 4G] hoslayer13:
No. You're unlocked. That's just your system build information. It will change when you flash a different ROM.

The ota update is the only way to update your stock and locked phone without any sort of modification. Since you're unlocked and rooted you shouldn't have an issue flashing a custom recovery and ROM
[Motorola Photon 4G] na7q:
My friend, as I mentioned, the previous user had downgraded or "upgraded" the stock firmware in a SAFE manner that does NOT lock the bootloader. It's done the same way custom ROMs work. It just another ROM basically. Pretty simple. Don't take everything so literal in terms of 2.3.5 :P only OTA updated or factory restored phones are locked. Which you don't have (:
[Motorola Photon 4G] mystaku:
Thank you, it's clear to me now :D
[Motorola Photon 4G] na7q:
Great! I hope you have fun trying out ROMs!! It's always a blast!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] albundy2010:
Buying a gnex now when a new phone is going to be announced on Monday. Lol.

Wait until Monday. See the price of and the launch date of the lg. See if the price drops on the gnex... Then decide.

I'm sorry but anybody that orders a new gnex right now is mental.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PoorOldMoot:
You should wait until Monday to see the specs of the new phone.

I would recommend buying it off contract (if you can afford it) because being free to choose your carrier is great. You can switch at any time if a better deal comes up and you can even take advantage of prepaid wireless. T-Mobile has a good prepaid plan IIRC.

[HTC Rezound] bik2101:
I'm trying to work on and figure out why my battery life on any version of Rage rom is so terrible compared to everyone else. Clearly it's not the rom, so it must be stuff i'm running.

The biggest culprits I always see on my gsam reports is apex launcher and Android System. But I can't understand what apex launcher is doing that its responsible for 30% of my application's battery usage

I've posted a few times in the Rage thread, but haven't had any responses there, so decided I'll check here
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Yes they can.
[HTC Rezound] bik2101:
ahh.. i'm gonna try to get rid of them and we'll see what happens.
[HTC Rezound] SynisterWolf:
depends on the wiglets and how often the update. stuff like one for music that isnt being used wont take up to much battery but something like system info that updates every 5 sec will
[HTC Rezound] bik2101:
that's what i thought too.. i have a tasks widgets, calendar, and weather. the weather updates every 4, calendar every 6, and tasks i can't set any intervals. but widgets were the only thing i could think of that would be casuing apex to be using so much battery
[HTC Rezound] 1Raiders:
Do you have location enabled for the weather widget? Ive always found weather and location type widgets to be very power hungry.
[HTC Rezound] bik2101:
yes i do. but if its only updating every 4 hours, that shouldn't be too bad i'd imagine.
[HTC Rezound] 1Raiders:
Yeah but locations is running non stop. Do a little experiment, disable all locations services and freeze Google maps and HTC locations picker and things like that.

Facebook apps and widgets are really hard on battery life but I don't remember seeing that mentioned.
[HTC Rezound] bik2101:
yeah i don't use facebook.

by locations, you mean gps? because i do have that disabled. only turn it on when using nav. only thing i leave on is the google location services. but that's never come up anywhere near the top in betterbatterystats so i doubt that's an issue.
[HTC Rezound] AshtonTS:
