[HTC Droid DNA] KyJelly69:
If you change it you'll need to install the multi-dpi play store apk
[HTC Droid DNA] CharliesTheMan:
Since you're wanting to run desensed, I think if you run a third party lockscreen you can change the DPI to 320.

You'll need an app like market enabler and a custom lock screen and I'm thinking I'm missing one other thing useful but can't think of it.

If you check out JWhetstone02 (he has an inverted menus thread in apps and themes DNA subforum) and look through his posts he's got a lot of pointers and small DPI screenshots.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cheekoo:
I am in a weird situation. Few days back I disabled samsung keyboard using nobloat app as i use adaptxt all time. But i have an encryption password and as samsung keyboard is disabled, i cant turn my phone on. I click on the text box for entering the device storage password when it boots, nothing happens (obviously)

I will appreciate any ideas or hacks to work around this issue, so that i will be able to use my phone.

Is there a way using command line to restore my keyboard app? I would ideally not want to restore/format my phone, but I am open to that.

Thanks!

[General Questions and Answers] mschief148:
I saw many posts about how to port a ROM. But in each post, there are many requeriments. My real question is to port, for example CM 10.1 for my phone that uses ICS 4.0.4 Stock ROM, but I don't know the real requeriments. In a post I read that it had to be the same manufacturer, for the drivers problem. Plus it said that must be the same resolution, the same Android version and the same processor or processor type. Can Anyone tell me wich are the real requeriments to port a ROM to my phone?.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
Ok.....so there are several different levels of "brick" (CMIIW)......

Bootloop.....recovery and download modes are both accessible and wiping cache and dalvic will fix the problem....

Softbrick 1....recovery and download modes are accessible, wiping cache and dalvic doesn't solve things but reflashing the ROM in recovery does......

Softbrick 2....Only download mode accessible....flashing a firmware via odin fixes the problem.....

Hardbrick 1.....neither recovery or download modes are accessible, but you still get the battery charging symbol appearing when you plug in your charger....a jig *might* get you into download mode to flash a firmware, a jtag *might* also help......

Hardbrick 2 (aka...call in the undertaker).....no recovery, no download, no signs of life even if the charger is plugged in....jig and jtag will NOT help.....mainboard replacement by Samsung the only option......

On that list....where are you? And what were you doing to the phone to cause it?. Also, what firmware/ROM were you on before it went "pear shaped"?.......

If you don't want to have to deal with downloading this and installing the apk, you can get it to update on its own by going to manage apps then play store services, and then clearing the data. After you have done that, open up the play store and it will have updated on its own.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ice_w0lf:
Hello,

New here and hoping someone can help me with my problem.

I've got an AT&T Captivate i897 that I put Jelly Bean on. The first time I did it, I didn't do the efs back up (the directions that I followed never mentioned it). This caused my phone to have a generic IMEI. After doing some digging, I found out that returning it to the stock GB 2.3.5 would put the correct IMEI back on the phone. I did this, and it did. I did a back up using EFS Pro 1.9.12. I then went back to Jelly Bean, hoping I could do a restore and all would be well. Unfortunately, this is where I am stuck.

EFS Pro 1.9.12 doesn't recognize the phone when I plug it in. I got the newer 2.0.26 version. This recognized the phone, but there was nothing for it to restore. I also tried using a root manager app, but there was no efs folder in there for me to put the back up in to.

If anyone could help, that would be a huuuuge help.

Thanks :)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] x0ne215:
If there was no efs folder, should just be able to make one and put the files inside. It's odd this only happens for some people, when I updated to 4.2.2 everything worked fine for me no efs backup etc.

But try putting the folder there anyway, reboot into recovery, fix perms, reboot. Might work (idk I've never had this problem, but putting the required files where they should be and letting the phone fix the permissions should help)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Val D.:
CM10 is the base of most custom ROMs. From stock (rooted and with CWM) flash CM10 and you'll see a backup of your original EFS folder on your internal SD. Check your IMEI in CM10, if good go ahead and flash your favorite JB ROM. Many custom JB ROM's require CM10 flash anyway (to create needed JB file system).
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ice_w0lf:
Tried this.. I think. When I plug the phone in and turn it on as mass storge, I get an F drive and a G drive. G seems to have all of the phone info on there, so I just create a folder G:/efs and unrar the backup into that?

I used CM10 to put JB on but I don't see a back up of my original EFS.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] x0ne215:
Which ever drive is the internal sd, if you can't tell put a folder on your EXTERNAL SD named blah and which ever drive doesn't have it is the external. You also fixed the permissions after placing the folder? If it isn't properly chmod'ed, the phone may not recognize it's existence or be able to access it. Once you put the folder on the internal sd, boot into recovery and fix permissions.

Tell me how it goes.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ice_w0lf:
Ok, here is what I have...

G:/ was my internal sd. So I created G:/efs with my unrar'd back up put into that folder (I'd post a pic, but I'm still under the 10 post rule).

I then reboot the phone into recovery mode, went to advanced, and hit fix permissions. That did its thing, and then I rebooted the system. Checked the phone data and it still has the wrong IMEI.

I'm wondering if at this point I should just wipe it all, return to stock GB, do a back up again (any suggestions for something other than EFS-Pro for backup/restore?), and then put CWM+CM 4.2.2 back on and do a restore.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Val D.:
/efs is a folder in root, not in your storage. Need to use root explorer. Better go to stock to restore your IMEI.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] x0ne215:
Why not just put it in storage then just copy it to root with root explorer? Less work no need to reflash.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Val D.:
I know, but OP is not very confident what to do. Also, just restoring /efs very often won't restore phone's IMEI. The easiest and guaranteed method for him is back to stock.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ice_w0lf:
Ok.. some success! I returned it to stock, did a back up, put the mod back on.. and now I've got the correct IMEI :good:

Now I am trying to take the AT&T sim card from the gophone that I bought so that I wasn't cut off from the world (the phone worked on my contract with my contract number) and put it into the Captivate, and I get Emergency Calls Only. I go into status and I get:

Network: Unknown

Service State: Out of Service

Mobile Network State: Disconnected

My phone number: Unknown

I'm guessing at this point that I just need a new sim card?

Also, thanks for all of the help so far.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Val D.:
Can you try this SIM on another AT&T phone?

What exactly JB ROM you flashed after stock ROM?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ice_w0lf:
SIM works in another AT&T phone (Alcatel OT-510A to be exact).

I used the [NIGHTLY][ROM][4.2.2] CyanogenMod 10.1 for Samsung Captivate right from the Captivate Android Development thread.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Val D.:
Hmm... check what modem (baseband) version you have in Settings>About Phone. With CM10.1 it must be I9000UGKG3, I think.
