[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimmyhauser:
I really, really, really want to like Windows Phone. I never really liked Android before I got this Nexus4.

I like the UI of windows phone better actually. It may not have widgets, but it has live tiles. I liked the screen on the Lumia 920 better. It was nicer, crisper. But the apps are just horrible. They have apps for just about everything you would need (contrary to what google and apple would have you believe) it's just that most of them are poorly written or don't work well. The onscreen keyboards are about the same. I don't really like either of them (say what you want about iphone, but it's still the best phone keyboard I have used)

I am going to give WP another try in a year or so (assuming Microsoft doesn't give up before then)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grisoxxl:
I will never buy WP, you cant do nothing with it. Even if you want copy music from pc to phone you must instal zune.

I'm thinking of getting one of them, the Chinese note 2 with dual sim's as my replacement work phone and use the sim card from work and the sim card from my own phone in it so I can stop lugging around two phones.

I was talking about the controls, they won't work (beside volume), that's why I referred to Bluetooth devices. When you have a Bluetooth device all the controls will work as supposed.

Ask yourself why they wouldn't work on the Sony? Never heard of a pair of headphones not working on a specific device, they would only cut their own fingers....

Hi, Hope you could help.

I have an LG G2X P999, it worked great on wifi, but when

I inserted a T-mobile sim, taken from my other phone, the G2X

showed my phone number but no carrier, nor any bars.

I did a 2945#*999# and the G2X showed the unlock dialog box,

meaning the phone is still locked?

If it is, then would buying an unlock code work?

Thanks much.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] redmonke255:
Yes you need an unlock code, you must be on a stock based rom to input it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] pi77:
Thanks for the quick reply, Redmonke. Please bear with me.

Curious, hy would the LG G2X T-mobile be locked against

its own T-mobile sim?

When I plugged my T-mobile subscribed sim into the phone, it showed

the correct phone number, but there were no bars, nor carrier name,

could it be that the phone had bad IMEI, rather than the phone being

sim locked?

I know I am in a good reception area so there is no signal strength problem.

Thank you.

Hello,

I have a weird request, I hope someone here can help me.

I am looking for a specific notification sound (Can't remember its name) that used to be included in the stock image of Android 1.6 on HTC Magic. Can anyone help me get the extracted notifications from the original image?

Thank you

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolsandie:
As now, nobody would be using Android 1.6 donut, its impossible to get the sounds from a working device.

The nearest things you could do is to download the android-sdk and download the Android 1.6 (API 4) SDK Platform, and you'll find an images folder inside the platforms folder and inside that you'll find the system.img

Extract that system.img using any img extraction tool like dsixda kitchen etc, and you'll be able to get its sounds and audio files I guess.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jessenj:
I have a fully modded Verizon SGS3 and I did a stupid thing and took my screen protector off my phone, and today I put my phone in my pocket and my keys shattered my glass. Should I get an insurance replacement or wait it out since the phone is still fully functional, get the s4 or something else? I wish Verizon would do a waterproof phone. Is there anything better than the s4 coming? I heard that the HTC officially won't be coming and the Nexus 5 is a long way off.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] CrustyMcLovin:
I'd try to get the phone replaced with your insurance, there isn't much better available on Verizon.

In regards to getting a waterproof phone one suggestion would be that Liquipel service. I think its only $60 and they do some kinda nano particle treatment to make it waterproof. They are located in my area so I recently went over to check it out. The sales guy told me to wait a couple weeks for a warranty announcement, I think that would be worth it.

The mkrom tools will allow you to 'unpack' a rom, i.e. extract all the files that are in it.

A rom, to the best of my understanding, has a 'native' or stock part to it, and then a series of XIP chains -- programs that are added into the free spaces of the rom.

I dont know what happens if you try to remove files from a rom that are part of the standard build...

Maybe the TMobile stuff is in a 'removeable' section of the ROM... there is also the 'operator' section... I am assuming that is a location that will give the 'operator' or creator of the rom space to put specialized programs, such as TMobiles phone apps, etc.

So, it seems that your best bet is to get the mkrom tools and read about how to extract/remove files/rebuild a rom.

Hey, it may even work!

J
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Richjn:
You can rebuild a rom image from extracted files and leave some files out but Mkrom does not use compression and therefore the rom you end up with will probably be bigger than the rom you started with.

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] JohnSmith:
I've used mkrom suite to do this (even for Smartphone2002). This are great tools.

Unfortunately it's not as easy as you might think. It's nearly impossible to build a ZERO-KNOWLEDGE ROM file explorer which can add or delete files "on the fly".

You will still have to look for valid gap's in the original rom where you can add a new XIP block.

All .exe and .dll files are "fixed up" that means they MUST run at THE fixed ROM position where they have been initially placed (execute in place). If you dump an exe or dll file you can't use it for other than disassembly to see how things work.

Removing files is a very hard task (they are splitted over the whole rom). And the resulting gap's are mostly not more than 10-16 kB. All you can do is to "hide" files (simply patch the directory entry).

So you see compression is not the real problem (see programers corner for a .bib file which can be used with romimage.exe - a Microsoft Tool to build XIP blocks, this tool supports compression)

John Smith
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] itsme:
only the kernel actually runs in the virtual memory area mapped to rom,

all the other XIP stuff runs from a virtual memory area mapped somewhere

in the top of each processes memory space.

( look at the 'real=' values in the output of dumprom )

so for all the other modules it should be possible to move them around

in rom a bit, I think you only need to keep the pagealignment the same.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] JohnSmith:
Hi,

The virtual memory address is also fixed in the module. (That's why I've to rebuild all the stuff I want to copy from other roms).

Since all relocation info is gone the module can't run from another memory position. So the only thing you can do is to move it in it's own XIP section...
