[General Questions and Answers] daftboy04:
ood night, i´m really happy to join this big comunity;

My question is this... severals weeks ago, i got an incredible 2 in verizon (in from Mexico City), i tried to unlock to use it with the mexican carriers, but I thought i would be a good idea to root it and get a nice rom.

I use the fastboot way, but, i forgot to make a backup to the original ruu, so i can not be able to follow as the procedure said.

I've been stuck for a several weeks trying to solve this, reading this and another android (mostly htc foums).

the i got this link from android forums (i´m a new user so i cant post links i can share by inbox ) but my i understand that the adb only can be run in the "normal" mode, i mean without the phone bricked, in this point i got my mobile with this..

i have the recovery clockwork 5.0.2.0 vivow

i know that i cant do too much with the S-ON, neither cant boot any rom, and i tried with fastboot, but the adb command "adb devices" doesnt recognize the phone, the fastboot command is actually working , so i cant do anything though.

i´m not an expert, i spent all these days on google before asking directly in any forum, but i ran out of ideas (and forum theads), i´m just beging a couple of hints.

Thanks for your time and redards from México.

[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seokhun:
Hey guys, I've been wondering a few things, and I'm hoping to start some educational discussion going.

If the 2nd-bootloader simply bypasses the first locked one, doesn't that mean we can treat it as if it was the first? In other words, we can update the bootloader and such. Also, here's to the recoveries. Along with the 2nd-bootloader came TWRP. If I happen to find another recovery suitable for the KFHD7, can't I just flash that in TWRP?

It's not that I have problems with the defaults, it's just I'm a huge customization guy, and I like CWM Touch on my Android devices, running CyanogenMod. I know both of these are just not available for the KFHD7 just yet, but in case they do, will these be possible? I do know that if you try to update TWRP, the KFHD7 will end up in a bootloop, but for what reason, I have no clue. Can we go through the same process to install the 2nd-bootloader, but substituting the outdated TWRP with the updated TWRP?

For that matter, here's yet another thing: is the TWRP in the 2nd-bootloader specifically-designed for the KFHD7? If so, that probably explains why the recovery will not work if you try to update; the newer versions need to be ported in order to work. Anything you find interesting?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrkhigh:
It seems like I recall due to the placement of the boot loader hack, the boot loader has to be modified (because it's sitting in the wrong spot). I would assume any are possible, but needs modified, and this is also why you get your boot loop
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
Aside from the KF HDs having completely different partition tables from what the current custom recoveries are made for, the version of TWRP we use is slightly different from those made for the original KF.

The version of TWRP used for the 2nd generation KFs, uses the command 'rm -rf *' to wipe the partitions rather than doing a complete format as with most other versions. When ROMs are built, they are to include the stack override that hijacks the boot process and makes it possible to install unsigned boot and recovery images to their respective partitions. Without the stack override in place, there is no protection from the OMAP HS checking the signed headers of those partitions and halting the boot process, thus resulting in a major brick.

The sectors of the system partition that hold the stack override are supposed to be marked as protected, which should theoretically prevent the stack override from being wiped out by 'rm -rf *' when the system partition is wiped and the user decides to do something stupid like rebooting the device without installing a ROM (and in effect, the stack override) first.

I am told, of course, that this level of protection is entirely untested, but it goes to show you that custom recoveries need to made specifically for the 2nd generation devices with this in mind. And if the original KFs are any indication of how often people will try to reboot their device without a ROM in place, we'll know that protection of this sort (whether tested or not) is absolutely necessary to protect the average user from their own stupidity/ignorance.

As far as updating the 2nd bootloader, I'm not sure what would really need to be updated about it. It already does what it needs to do and I'm not sure what added functionality could be included with it since it's not an actual "bootloader" other than the fact that it might load and start the kernel. There are probably no hardware inits done because the first bootloader would have taken care of that, and there is no fastboot functionality added because fastboot still works with the first bootloader. I think that covers pretty much everything you would expect from an actual bootloader so other than changing the splash screen, there isn't really much you can change about it.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seokhun:
Very nice response, thank you!

In regards to updating the bootloader, I've seen devices like the Nexus 7 that updates the bootloader in order to flash new kernels and ROMs. I'm wondering if that same process applies to the Kindle line, if at all. That was never the case for me, because whenever I try to flash a new bootloader version (say 4.13 to 4.18) using a flashable zip, it would show as successful but my bootloader version remain unchanges. That brings up a question: can I flash literally anything that can be flashed through fastboot using the custom recoveries?

In other words, if I have an boot image, and someone theoretically converted that into a flashable .zip file, wouldn't I be able to flash the .zip through recovery, and have the same result as if I flashed using fastboot? This applies to newer custom recovery images, also. If I find another custom recovery specifically-designed for the Kindle (say a ported version of CWM Touch, similar to Hashcode's ports), do I have to flash the image through fastboot or simply create a flashable .zip and flash through TWRP?

Yes, I believe that's correct. I just read that Hashcode needed to port the specifically-designed recoveries, because otherwise the normal downloads on TWRP's websites are for unlocked devices only.

Try clearing the caches of apps u commonly use like browsers, social networks, chat, etc. Over time, app caches tend to build up and reach enormous sizes.:)

You can clear them manually, or use third party apps available on the Playstore.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] king_below_my_lord:
Lol, your sd card is not that is full, its your Internal Storage(in S2 its usually a 2Gb area) which is full you must have installed a lot of apps haven't you? Well i suggest you to use an application which can move some of your application files from internal to sdcard, apps like app2sd will work fine or you can do it manually by going into applications taking a lot of memory in your application manager and manually click on option "Move to sdcard" in the required application, which will free up a lot of space depending on the application

It's the fault of the kernel, not of the ROM. First flash the Stock kernel, then save all contacts in the sd-card and flash Custom kernel again. Then import all contacts from sd-card into internal memory.

The ONLY way ro rever back to sprint settings you will need to odin stock.

Tried swiping away the notification and it continued to get louder. Went in to the alarm app and tried unsetting the alarm, by this point the cat was climbing on me clearly trying to help me in my distress. Eventually I clicked the alarm and it opened up the usual swipe left to snooze, right to stop thing that comes up when the phone is locked.

So clearly I failed that test.

Hi Friends,

This is a little Tutorial about changing app icons permanently. There was a lot of applications available in Playstore like

“ icon changer free” etc etc to change the app icons. But the problem is that u cant use that changed apps in ur app drawer. U can only use that in ur home screen as a shortcut.

So I just decided to put a little tutorial to do that easily. I know everybody will know this already. But it will help for someone I am sure….

(1) Get some cool icons from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2207136 and save it ur PC. Give him big thanks for the work.

Edit:- If u need some cool Galaxy S4 icons means go here: - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2216289 Please give thanks for his work..

(2) Put the apps u want to change the icons to a Folder in ur PC. For example SemcAlbum, Phonebook, Browser etc

(3) Here I am taking the Phonebook app for Example..

(4) Right Click the Phonebook apk -> Open With -> 7zip File Manager. Then U will get a box contained some files like this

(5) Then double click on the res folder and u get another box like this

(6) Find the folder named “ drawable-xhdpi “ and open it. U will get This

(7) And most important thing is u need to find the original icon and its name of the phonebook.apk or whatever apk u take …

(8) For that an easy way is create a new folder in ur PC’s Desktop and select all the images from the box ( Image 3 ) then drag it to the that new folder in the desktop.

(9)Then open that folder then search for original the apk icon. like this

(10) In my case the name of the Phonebook.apk’s icon is “ic_launcher_contacts “. So just note down the icon name and then open the folder that contains the icons that u downloaded. Like this

(11) And choose which icon u need and select it. Then rename it to the exact name of the original apk icon. ( For example ic_launcher_contacts )

(12) After that just drag that renamed icon to res/drawable-xhdpi. It will ask for overright. Press Ok or Yes. That’s it. Copy the apk to ur phone and move it to the System/app with correct permission…

Check this Attached Images for your reference .

U can do it with almost all the apks. But I cant guarantee that it will work with all apks. Some System apks did not worked for me…

And also u can take icos from other apks too..
