Try to copy any shortcut from \windows\start menu\programs\

and paste it to the location you want, rename it & edit it using Total Commander (right-click on it & choose Properties, then go to Shortcut tab and change the TARGET parameter to "ctlpnl.exe cplmain.cpl,1" without quotes.

The icon will automatically change to the password icon :)
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] iggy:
Sorry ezzkht, I did exactly what you said but it did not work. Tried with and without quotes, tried 0 instead of 1 but the icon never changes to the password icon just an executable icon but nothing happens when I click on it.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] ezzkht:
OH yes you are right!! sorry! :oops:

Ok here's the shortcut, I just get it from my device..

I opened it with a HEX editor & found the following line inside it:

51#ctlpnl.exe cplmain.cpl,1?\Windows\cplmain.cpl,-6000

plz tell me if it worked with you :)
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] iggy:
Hi ezzkht, I tried but this also does not seem to work.

I checked the registery and their is a mention of a Password.cpl in the Windows directory which is not in mine. I installed logologin and picturepassword and have recently removed them, don't know if they might have also removed this file. It may be the the problem, do you have this file.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] ezzkht:
Neither me, I don't have password.cpl file in \windows directory!!

I have cplmain.cpl only!

I noticed that the password link points to cplmain.cpl with a parameter of : password.cpl

I guess that cplmain.cpl is a composite file which contains alot of programs, one of them is the password program!

Do u have the cplmain.cpl in windows directory??
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] ezzkht:

[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] iggy:
Thanks ezzkht, this was good but it still did'nt work. I think somewhere their is a file missing. I will try emailing MS and see if they have an answer.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] ezzkht:
You welcome, but I did nothing!!

A hard reset could help, unless you are not willing to install your programs all over again! :)
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] iggy:
You got that right, finally got all the programs and the look I want. I am going to do a backup via Activsync and a clone backup tonight at home then if all else fails I will do a HR, copy any missing files from the windows directory and reinstall my backups.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] ezzkht:
Seems a great idea :wink:

Compare the two WINDOWS directories, and copy only the missing files..

Good luck dude :)
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xratx:
Ok about 2 months ago I've broken my display and touchscreen, replaced them, started the phone everything seemed to be nice and well but,

when I try to turn on the Wifi it says "Turning On" and after that "Error"

Bluetooth says "Turning On" and nothing happens come back to "normal" as I didn't even start the bluetooth.

What are the chances to be something Hardware and not something Software?

Mac Address on both shows Unavailable.

Hi, just flashed the note 2 to page plus and was wondering if ill be ok If I update my modem to mc2 or will I have to re flash the page plus data? thank you
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] cbucz24:
Im sorry I dont know specifically the answer but I can direct you to the right area. I believe garwynn wrote a detailed description of the partition data locations over in the Android development threads.

My guess, yes you can do it and it wont change that as the place that holds your provider data is on a different partition.

But before you do anything just check out his thread. Ive flashed phones to another carrier before I know what a pain it can be...I'd hate to miss direct you in any way

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] TwistedMexi:
I just learned that double-tapping the Home button will open S-Voice. That's great, but I'd honestly prefer Google Now. My old droid incredible (Yeah, I made quite the leap with this upgrade) had a physical search button, and being able to hold that for Now voice input was one of my must-haves. Any way to replace that command to open Now instead? (unrooted. Waiting for recovery before I bother.)

Thanks, but I just tried it and it seems the stock double home setting overrides it - so it still goes to S Voice unfortunately.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] tysj:
You have to disable the option to launch S voice by double tapping home from within the S voice settings.

I have an unlocked htc one x and when I try to find my location using maps, it says current location temporarily unavailable. I have the location services turned on in settings and the GPS satellites option, but it still doesn't work. If anyone could help, that be great. Thanks!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jerrycoffman45:
Did you try rebooting
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Herc08:
Are you using a different ROM other than stock? Are you outside or by a window? Did you try another app? Need a bit more details please.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Try the Play Store app GPS Status & Toolbox. Install and open the app. On the app's main screen, you will seen on the circular display, "dots" for any satellites that the phone can track. Below the circular display is a bar graph, with each bar depicting the signal strength for each satellite (should turn green when locked). Let the app do its thing for at least 5 minutes and see if any satellites are being tracked, and how good the signal strength is.

Also, its not clear from the OP:

1) Are you trying to get the GPS to lock on outside? This is the best condition (especially for a first time lock), with a clear view of a majority of the sky. Let it sit for at least 5 minutes.

2) Did it ever work, and now it stopped working?

3) Any recent change, like RUU, or flashed a new radio?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Yblehs:
I was outside when I tried to find my location, and I've only tried with google maps. I downloaded the GPS status app and after running, all it says is it can't find my location. I also didn't have any network Internet after unlocking the phone, but I changed the APN settings to be compatible with tmobile if that helps any with this problem.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Venomtester:
Try turning update through network and WiFi off. See if it will locate then turn it back on.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Any dots on the circular display of the app, or any bars appearing on the bar graph?

If the GPS is working at all, it should at least be able to track some satellites, even if its not strong enough signal to get a location lock.

If nothing at all, it suggests a hardware issue, or the OS not being able to communicate with the GPS for some reason.

Also, I asked before but didn't get an answer: has it ever worked before, and just stopped working? Or never worked, newly purchased phone, etc.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Yblehs:
There was one green circle but no bar graph below. And it hasn't worked since I've had the phone. I purchased it from a friend who upgraded and didn't need the phone.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] hojnikb:
also have the same issue, my gps doesnt lock to sattallites at all.

Its unlocked and on ARHD 21.0. Sometimes it finds one sattallite (no lock though) so i'm guesing that actual gps hardware isn't dead.

check if USB debbuging is enabled and that you have that latest drivers installed, if not

Hello

I came across a thread with this software , I receantly purchased a Galaxy s3 GT-I9300, from overseas.

Build # IMM76D. 19300ZSALED

Android Version 4.1.1

Base band version I9300XXLEF

I tried to load the driver pack 4-5 to my computer so I could root the phone and update the rom but the international drivers seem to work.

I cannot get it to connect and display the serial number on the screen. What driver should I use?

Hello,

im new to android from iPhone and with all this customization im lost in the goodness of changing everything to my liking... but what is the difference from icons, and wallpapers, themes and launchers....

will one give me the option to change all of them or is each one different.... ive been searching on the play store but am so confused...

thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] creepyncrawly:
Launchers: available on and installable from the play store. The stock Samsung launcher is touchwiz. This is the main interface for the phone. Changing to another launcher will change the way this looks, and works.

Themes: These are modifications of the general look and feel of the phones firmware. These are done by themers here who take the stock (or custom) framework files and modify them. These are currently unavailable until the S4 has the ability to install custom firmware. The locked bootloader has to be unlocked first.

Wallpapers: The background of your screen. You can change these within the launcher, including stock touchwiz. You can add custom wallpapers and use them also, by choosing from the gallery.

Icons: Generally built into the applications and not modifyable.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] JL84:
Thanks. Would you recommend nova launcher?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] creepyncrawly:
I've never used it. Many like it.

I use Apex on my SII running 4.1.2
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] RTBee:
I've been using Nova Launcher for a while now and it's pretty nice. Lots of things to customize, like the look and feel of the app drawer and how app screens flip or roll from one to the next. Nice thing about downloading a launcher from the playstore is it installs along side the original or in this case Touch Wiz launcher. So if you decide you don't like it, simply switch back or try a different one. ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] alacrify:
I recommend searching - Google will get you comparisons of all the available launchers and give you full information on installing, changing settings, different features, and how to clear defaults and change launchers if the app itself doesn't offer the option. Include XDA as a search term and you'll get lots of theads around here...

One of the bonuses with Android vs. iPhone is since it's all hackable, there are TONS of threads, reviews, and blog posts on how to do anything. The browser on the phone works great (especially with this nice big screen).

You've probably started another thread that will turn into more of the same - until we get custom ROMs, you won't get any info that isn't on another thread already ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] quikmeister:
I have both Apex and Nova Launcher. I like them both. They do a great job. Until custom ROM's are available you can check out this guys site:

http://czarnomorski.pl/ (Some great simple wallpapers on his site or in app format here

He made some great themes that work with both Nova and Apex as well as Go Launcher EX or ADW Launcher. Check Play store here:

If you are using TFS Shell then you need this one:

If you install the theme you can then go into the settings of the launcher and apply it. You can apply the whole theme or just parts of it like the Icons or Wallpaper.

Enjoy.
