"wondershare panorama" is pretty good too.

Why not just use Photosphere?

Hey guys,

I'm a photographer and graphic designer by profession, and I've always wanted to create a sleek, matte, "premium" looking theme for the GN2, specifically for Apex/Nova/etc.

I can make graphics, no problem, but I really don't know how to compile the theme into a flashable or app store package to get it working.

Does anyone have any ideas for me?

Thanks!

(The person with the best answer gets his/her own custom made wallpaper :P)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrevankyle:
I would start with using VRtheme to apply your graphics and unzipping system apk's and just figuring out what goes where. Thats how i started
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] silentecho13:
Awesome, I'm gonna have to look into it.

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] hapticxchaos:
Alot of the basic theming functions are de compiling the APK, sorting through folders, and swapping out the images with the ones you want. More involved theming is editing XML's and something called 9pings or something? IDK tbh I stopped theming after metamorph made it to easy LMFAO.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lipcikm:
is there way how to lower my screen brightness level lower then stock? I want lower my screen brightness because I use my fone in dark a lot and my eyes get tired really fast. So I am looking for any mod or application which is capable of something like that.

Has anyone had any success in booting Backtrack 5 on their Nexus 10?

I just unlocked, rooted, and added the cyanogenmod to my phone.

But I can't seem to get backtrack to launch, and get the below errors:

and I basically followed these steps.

[Nexus 10 General] Jotokun:
I'd guess that the script they're using to start it isn't set up for the path storage is mounted to on the N10. I'd check myself, but it seems you need to download the whole thing to just get the script, and I"m not doing that.

If that's the case, it should be a pretty easy fix.
[Nexus 10 General] Aron_H:
I know this an old thread but i would try

Re: Unbrick Projekt (RiffBox JTAG)

Good luck you both good guys with your great and important mission!
[HTC One S] Sneakyghost:
Thank you all who helped out get the RIFF Box together! It was a cool experience and i see it indeed does help a few people.

Success-Story... nice...
[HTC One S] slainbybeats:
AW: Unbrick Projekt (RiffBox JTAG)

I am really interested in how this whole thing works. I wish tec all the best for the progress with the box!

You guys rock!
[HTC One S] Sneakyghost:
[EDIT]

The Story i had put here detailing how Multi-Com would send us a free JIG didn't work out as expected in the end.

Short version: after much delay we asked multi-com what the deal was now and got the reply that they're not interested in my mainboard anymore since they got a One S Mainboard close by, which they preferred.

So the deal died a sad and tragic death.

Two weeks later we found the first One S JIG adapter at Fonefunshop and Multi-Com.pl, both the same pieces. Obviously, Fonefunshop gets them from Poland too! Nice thing to see. Well, however.

We needed to buy it then. Bummer. Costs where quite high.
[HTC One S] theguitarman94:
@sneakyghost So you did decide to send your phone in to HTC in the end?
[HTC One S] Sneakyghost:
I tried lol. But as i wrote on some other threads: quite clearly, Arvato would have charged me for the brick. So no way i'm gonna do that when we can also do that ourselves, learn a lot from it and have some additional help for the forum people available. Gain is much bigger, costs are lot lower.

Well not quite. Tec and me had to come up with a fair hundred euro extra to get all stuff together in the end but now we're all set i bet and i am looking forward to the results.

One thing is already clear though: due to Arvato glueing the phone together, the frame got damaged by pulling it apart. Will have to live with that. Pity though. It looked like brand new for two month, didn't have one scratch despite being in my pocket all day without any protection. Amazing quality of the housing and screen once the initial MAO issue was overcome.

Goatshocker:

Tecardo will post shots of all bills from all purchases with personal details blacked out once the stuff arrives.

We believe, since you all paid the device mainly, we owe as much transparency as can be. Of course, a picture of a bill with details blacked out can be fake at any time, but we wouldn't know how to make it quite clear we didn't misuse the money.

It needs a bit of trust from your side too.

And everything else interesting turning up will be Photo-documented. Tec and I are still discussing what's worth posting and what not.

Maybe, if you want to see anything particular, just ask for it.
[HTC One S] Tecardo:
I payed for the Riffbox now :)

Receiving Shipment soon.
[HTC One S] Sneakyghost:
AW: Unbrick Projekt (RiffBox JTAG)

Yeah thanks Buddy. Good you're looking after that. I am really looking forward to when you can start working with it and how it will go then. I hope the deal with multi-com.pl works out though.

Sent from my Oldschool HD2
[HTC One S] Snoob25:
i don't own this device but... great work!! you're sorting out something amazing :fingers-crossed:
[HTC One S] Tecardo:
Device costs now 195€ with shipment.

Good thing: No Zoll :)
[HTC One S] Sneakyghost:
Which is kind of a bummer. it's at least 25 Euros more than expected.

Legija is doing some very gooood thing with the Riff, I use it for almost 2 years for different phones, even for unlock.. Go Legija, rock'n'roll :D
[HTC One S] Tecardo:
AW: Unbrick Project (RiffBox JTAG)

Why legija?
[HTC One S] mano42:
He is the leader behind the riff. He is an old gsm hacker, he also made the ultima box and motorocker, a motorola service box... almost 10 years ago, hehe...

BTW riff, change cables, the cables given with the box, they suck, better use thin and small lenght wires... I advice you, before trying resurrection , read more about riff here: http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f634/

If I can help you in any way, just write me... riff is good choice... congrats :P
[HTC One S] Tecardo:
Found out JTAG Pins for One S.

So only need to do JIG :)
[HTC One S] essentialmindz:
woot woot... good stuff... glad you guys finally got it... hope that jig comes through.. -=D
[HTC One S] mano42:
Actually if you have some soldering skills, and some very thin wires, you don't need jig..
[HTC One S] Tecardo:
Try to find it. But I have it.
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
can't find however you have it ;)
[HTC One S] Tecardo:
Yes :)
[HTC One S] donverse:
Do you still need it? I'm on vacation right now, won't be back til monday. So, progress looking good?
[HTC One S] Tecardo:
No don't need it. Progress is not bad right now.
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
hope this week it will be ready the phone .-.
[HTC One S] TheDrone:
Dude you need to chill out... U ask for an update every few minutes the phone will get fixed tec can't go any faster than he is... Chill out a bit like Don give tecardo some space
[HTC One S] Tecardo:
Phones will be back tomorrow, will try to send them out this day :D
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
Good you need address?

EDIT: All ok waiting for the shipment :) Thanks Tecardo.
[HTC One S] donverse:
So they are WORKING?! Are you ****ing serious?! This is awesome! Nice job!!

P.S. I sent you a PM, please check before sending it out. Thanks!!
[HTC One S] Tecardo:
Well try to send out as fast as possible.
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
Good Job Tec! Really, hope for the future you will get a dedicated power supply for our htc one s and, why not, if needed let's make donations to let you get it for an easier and faster unbrick :)

sorry for my poor english :D
[HTC One S] Tecardo:
Sented out. No number given yet.

Yours mcgiver. Don. I send yours tomorrow.
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
Ok if you get the number send me in a pm :)
[HTC One S] slainbybeats:
Cool to see that the project is really working! :) Did you study electronics or where does your know how come from, tec?
[HTC One S] Tecardo:
Learning, testing, using.

I already fixed devices out of xda;)

As my education goes: I'm interested in electronic long time ago. I see electricity from an other perspective, it gives us the chance to communicate, to hear opinions and develop our own opinions.

The humans are getting more intelligent with more opinions. Every person is capable of being an expert, and I'm good in electronic :). Everyone can do this, if he wants. Everyone can search it on the internet. :)

I hope you don't get me wrong, I'm not special, I only now this things, cause I want to know it and help you. Everyone is good in something. Thanks for reading.
[HTC One S] amigo2000:
Hi Tecardo, greetings to South-Germany.

Sorry, yes I know, this thread is about HTC, but please let me ask the question anyway:

Can you also fix jtag-problem on Samsung S3 clone (Tinji GT-i9300, dual core MTK 6577)?

I bricked my phone by flashing with flashtool, all was looking good, at the end of the procedure, bar colors are changing and it shows the green ring at the flashtool-window... but then my phone was dead. No response, no light, no connection with pc anymore...

So you are my last chance!

I hope, you can help me.

Thanks in advance and sorry about -off-topic.

Regards

Manfred
[HTC One S] Tecardo:
I need to look at it. Can't answer this question without seeing the device
[HTC One S] amigo2000:
Thanks for answering,

shall I take some pictures in/out and give you additional specification and send this to your email address via this forum or do you need the phone itselfe to investigate?

Regards

Manfred
[HTC One S] Tecardo:
Try with pics
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
15€ sent, please now get the tracking number! -.-"
[HTC One S] donverse:
Dude, you seriously need to chill out a bit! And be a bit friendlier, he fixed your 300€+ device for literally nothing for god's sake!
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
Yes I should, I'm not angry with nobody, Tec has sent me the phone but the package is now back to him because dhl said that was refused by me but i didn't saw any courrier coming at my home, however now is coming back again with tracking number :D

Guys please I'm very sorry for my insistence but I'm without any phone and I need it for work too, that's why I'm insistent. Sorry again.

EDIT: sorry for my bad english

Cheers.
[HTC One S] Darknites:
Em dude did you read what you put? I would be worried if my phone took this long after all it not cheap item. And before you say you wouldn't, send me your phone and I keep for a bit and give it back a some point in the future and see how you feel.
[HTC One S] RussianBear:
It was a useless pos before he sent it in... not even touching on the fact that the owner, most likely, bricked it by being irresponsible. Give op a brake. There area ton of jtag places in Europe. Op wasn't the only guy providing this service.
[HTC One S] Tecardo:
Phone is send out again.

Don your phone will be send out tomorrow.

Sorry for your problems.

I found an powersupply for charging the phones.
[HTC One S] Darknites:
Em debatable but even taking the jb ota bricked phones and where did you get that I had issue with op?
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
That's a really nice news :) why don't you update the first post with some pictures of the repaired phones? :D
[HTC One S] Tecardo:
Oh, cause I forgot :D
[HTC One S] amigo2000:
Hi Tecardo,

did you have had the time to take a look at the pics and the additional information I sent you last week?

Is there a possibility for you to fix the jtag Problem at that phone?

So please let me know your answer.

Thank you in advance, that you spent your time to read about my problems.

Regards

Manfred
[HTC One S] Tecardo:
Yes. Already answered you.

I need phone to look at it. But can't promise anything, seems to be bad.
[HTC One S] Mohhamad Rehan:
I fixed my bricked lgp920. Without jtag riff and ported it with ics
[HTC One S] ryanshew:
Lol...and that has some importance here because...?

I doubt you were hard bricked if you just flashed a ROM to get it to boot. These phones are dead as dead, can not even get a charge light, not recognized by pc.

Didn't forgot you :) researched a bit on the devices I have. It's only possible to revive your devices(one s) with jtag. Can you please post your country here?

I will tell you then a person in your count ry, who can repair your device. For German Users, you need to contact me.
[HTC One S] Mohhamad Rehan:
Well not a bit sometimes it happens i understand that it is irrelevent of me posting the link here and btw i did not use any jtag riff box for ressurecting my phone

---------- Post added at 02:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:42 AM ----------

Well i wanna learn about all the devices
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
Phone is at home!! :)
[HTC One S] Tecardo:
Dont forget to reset :)
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
ehm.. reset what? however i noticed the present and I appreciate it a lot :) However I'm having some problem with the camera but i think it's a software problem because it opens but it stay with black screen and no command works in it. Maybe with factory reset will fix this?
[HTC One S] Tecardo:
Try it. Didn't did anything on cam
[HTC One S] donverse:
What do I need to reset? Mine is scheduled to arrive today, too :)

You mean factory reset?
[HTC One S] Tecardo:
Yes factory :)
[HTC One S] donverse:
Okay. Just so everyone can read it: YOU. ARE. THE. ****ING. MAN!!!

Amazing, camera works without a problem and everything just flies. Oh man, didn't know, HOW slow my desire was compared to the 1S.

Thank you!!
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
Lucky one :( my camera won't start all is working very well but camera doesn't respond..
[HTC One S] donverse:
Did you try installing a different Rom?
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
yes with viper one s 1.2.0 it opens to a black screen and then after few seconds home screen and if i try to open again camera it say "can't start camera" frontal camera isn't working too.
[HTC One S] k1llacanon:
Did u run a ruu?
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
no, I have this RUU RUU_Ville_U_JB_45_S_HTC_Europe_3.16.401.8_Radio_1. 11.50.05.28_10.27.50.08L_release_301814_signed_2_4 .exe

Will this CID: HTC__101 work fine with this RUU? Because i have SCID now. Also i need to re lock bootloader but to run the RUU i need the stock recovery for one S (S4)? if so can someone link it to me? i can't find it anywhere :(
[HTC One S] Tecardo:
You already have it. Stock recovery
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
hmm no because i flashed twrp.
[HTC One S] Tecardo:
The one sneaky gave you
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
Ohhh totally forgot to have the link in pm :D
[HTC One S] Sneakyghost:
:D

Good luck mcGiver!

mobile post
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
well got error 132 I'm trying with another CID, however you guys know why my sdcard it doesn't format when i unlock bootloader? i still have all my data on it. isn't weird?

Sorry if I went OT.
[HTC One S] Tecardo:
Yes, but that is only your hboot version :)

Or the recovery isn't perfect
[HTC One S] chardmont007:
need help

Hi,

I just newbie here.

My galaxy S I9003 got hard bricked no power at all, can't go to recovery mode also.

I need to restore it, can someone help me.

I need advice how to get it back to life.

my location in QATAR.

Thanks in Advance.
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
This is HTC one S section. However let's wait for Tecardo.
[HTC One S] Tecardo:
Already replied his pm
[HTC One S] Sneakyghost:
This indicates that the SD cannot be accessed. Which -could- also explain the black camera, since it is totally dependant on fast SD access. If that fails, the camera software will likely screw up.

Maybe it's not the camera broken but the SD partition f.u.cked up.

Tecardo, think about that device, did you have issues when rewriting the chip? Issues with the 2 byte shift? Maybe his SD partition is still borked?

mobile post
[HTC One S] Tecardo:
No, not on this device.
[HTC One S] Tecardo:
But you can explain him how to fix ? You did it before :)
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
So that's could be the reason that when I unlocked the bootloader my SD it doesn't get wiped? However you know how can i could fix this problem? Hope it's not too hard and risky :D
[HTC One S] Darknites:
Flash stock recovery and then factory reset in bootloader.
[HTC One S] Sneakyghost:
When I killed my SD, that didn't do the trick. I spent nearly a week trying to get it back using all sorts of half-educated guessing and wizardry, including miniTool partition wizard, EASUS partition master, Windows format, Panasonic SD formatter, android native formatting (only possible when android detects a damaged partition - it then offers to format it), and the boatloader factory reset and clear storage options.

In that process, the SD was often visible to the recovery and/or the android system, sometimes mountable in one but not the other and then gone completely but still visible to some other tool. It really was a MESS.

Don't know how I got it back, really.

mobile post
[HTC One S] Darknites:
Ya I remember you telling me before and must be bad if easeus didn't help because that fixed my SD card when I somehow messed it up with apps to SD on my old phone.
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
Well Clear Storage doesn't wipe my SD card but it did like a factory reset fresh stock rom and i still have all my data on the SD card. what's wrong? :(
[HTC One S] Darknites:
Well I did say do factory reset.

Edit, em wait a sec you SD wasn't working and now you are :confused:

Edit, ah it sneaky that confused me, unlocking don't seem to wipe SD when unlocking even tho I'm sure it did the first time I did it but didn't the 2nd time.
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
I say that because sneaky told me that clear storage wipe sd card. Will try factory reset then. :D

EDIT: no when I recived my phone from unbrick I figured out that I still have all my data on the SD and i say "WOW that's fantastic :D". My sd has always worked well i can write and delete files etc etc but the only problem was the camera so sneaky think could be the sd partition that could make the camera laggy and to don't work. If factory reset won't work may I try with the JB RUU 3.16? However another thing that i saw was that if i write on fastboot "fastboot getvar main-version" it gives me "main-version: " just blank.
[HTC One S] Darknites:
Ya it will reset everything.
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
I unlocked the bootloader 2 times and still have all the data :D my phone it's so weird
[HTC One S] Darknites:
3 times for me but the last wasn't by choice and was trying to unlock it for over 12 hours.
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
Why 12 hours? :eek:
[HTC One S] Darknites:
No idea and no idea how many tokens I tried as well but then it unlocked so no rush to lock it again lol.
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
Well I'm going to work :D will try something tonight and hope to don't brick anything as sneaky is scaring me too much ahahhaha. Have a nice day guys :)
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
Ahh noticed that accelerometer is not working on temple run but on Android calibration it works..
[HTC One S] Sneakyghost:
I am scaring you? Well then i did a good job educating you don't you reckon? Because all that you can experience with these things should scare the sh.i.t out of you. All pretty dangerous. :D
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
Yeah android modding it's not that fun as it seems.. I think I'm out of modding on future phones.. I don't want to **** my life again..
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
Flashed 2.31.401.5 RUU and.. opened camera app and I said "well it didn't changed anything" :( ) then I tried to run the mirror app to see if the frontal camera was working and after 1 minute of black screen the front camera started working, then I tried again to open the camera app and leave the phone on my desk for some minutes too see if something will happen and after 1 or 2 minutes I was able to open camera settings, Focus settings, flash settings, also in the gallery box appeared my last photo can open effects menu so I can use all the buttons in the camera and if i put the front camera is working and i can do photo but the rear camera seems dead and the camera app it's laggy (I think because the software is checking if the camera is working or not). Well for now I'm pretty sure it's broken the flat cable of the camera or what else? Should open the phone to discover it myself.

EDIT: Accelerometer still isn't working when running games. (only games)

Thanks to: Tecardo, Sneakyghost, Darknites, Touch of Jobo helping me flashing stuff to see if it was broken or not. :)

Cheers from my half working HTC One S. :crying:

- mcgiver93
[HTC One S] Sneakyghost:
Sh1t. At work right now. Might have some time tonight to discuss options on gTalk. For now, I'd suspect hardware damage. Might need to set up a chat with Tecardo to see how we could possibly help you.

mobile post
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
Well I'm at work right now too, tonight i am Free to talk with you all guys.

Cheers

Sent from my HTC One S with broken camera.
[HTC One S] Tecardo:
That wonders me, as I didnt touched both.
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
Front camera is working, only rear camera.
[HTC One S] Tecardo:
look at logcat please

And upload.
[HTC One S] Sneakyghost:
Thing to think about: when i disassembled my HD2 and fixed it up, i was very careful and rebuild the flex-cable connections multiple times, even cleaned the contacts, to make sure the upper board with the camera and the sensors would connect. Still, the proximity sensor never worked again.

It died. Just so. It sat on the same board with the camera (which still worked). I never found out what went wrong. There is a good chance, the cable, the camera or the SoC which controls the camera, suffered serious damage during the process. This is definitely not impossible and wouldn't be the first time to happen either. It is quite a possibility.

A LogCat is a good starting point.

I pulled a clean LogCat of one Photo taken with camera from Cam launch to exit. If you need a reference Log, Tecardo. It's 1600 lines of output, nearly all camera related :D
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
Here you go the logcat.
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
Accelerometer seem to not work only in temple run (that's so weird). Now I restored my old JB backup before brick :D now will tell you guys what i'll see when i open the phone when i can :).

Now I'm enjoying the rest of my phone hahaha.
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
First of all Sorry for my triple post :D. I finally opened the phone and found that all cables are connected and there isn't visible damage.

The camera got ESD damaged, so maybe with a new one will fix the problem or maybe not.

I'm not sure if try to fix this or buy a One X.

Thanks for this adventure :cool:

bye.
[HTC One S] Sneakyghost:
no-one said it's ESD damaged. I mentioned in chat that this is a possibility but more regarding the mainboard and SoC rather than the cam itself...

Offer your phone to Tecardo for a few bucks so he can use it to charge dead batteries then ;)

mobile post
[HTC One S] McGiver93:
I checked myself twice.. the cable isnt broken so its 99% esd damaged. Tec has a power supply now if im not wrong
