1. SOFT POWER BUTTON

--------------------------------------------------

Today I will introduce about my new mod. This will add a soft lock button on your screen which help to decrease the usage of hard lock button :p

And another great thing is that this button has the same funtion with power button (hold to show power menu as well).

I'm on stock Bell 4.1.2 so the attached file below is only applied on Bell 4.1.2 deodexed only. U also may try on Mexican retail 4.1.2 and I think it should work. About 4.1.1 (Bell & ATT), I'm not sure so if anyone who is interested in, I will write a guide.

Note: About Back, Home, Task icons, I have used SoftkeyZ to change and forgot to go back to stock one before modding :D So if you want, search for the app and change it again. :">

Instruction:

- Put file in /system/app

- set permission: rw-r-r

Download: (see attachment)

Guide for doing this mod is in 2nd post below.

Here is screenshots:

-------------------------------------------------

5 SOFT KEY BUTTONS ( BACK, RECENT, HOME, SEARCH & MENU)

-------------------------------------------------

Here is the new mod as request from

It currently has a small limitation is that the search & menu button always show on lockscreen. I'm trying to figure out how to make it show only in homescreen. If anyone knows, plz tell me. Thank you.

Anw, enjoy this mod. Of course, this is for Bell 4.1.2 only :) I have no time to flash other stock firmware. I also attached the modded files for anyone want to compare and do this mod by themselves.

INSTRUCTIONS:

- Put file in /system/app

- set permission: rw-r-r

SCREENSHOTS
[Motorola Atrix HD] Codex01:
Looks nice, and should come in handy to people with dis-functional power buttons. :good:

If only we could get an IOS6 style "Assistive touch" just like the one on the iPhone.
[Motorola Atrix HD] devilsking:
Ya. I did this mod becoz all apps such as Toucher, Easy Touch...etc which look like "assistive touch" have problem with lockscreen funtion. After the screen turn off, it automatically turns on to lockscreen again. And that makes me mad =.='. So I decided to mod this one :)
[Motorola Atrix HD] huatz84:
Any guide to make it work on another rom,bro? This is so helpful to keep my power button.
[Motorola Atrix HD] devilsking:
I will write the guide when i come back home tonight
[Motorola Atrix HD] devilsking:
Wrote the guide as ur request :D have fun!
[Motorola Atrix HD] huatz84:
Thanks for the guide,bro.. I'll try it when I have much time. :)
[Motorola Atrix HD] PearlKami:
I tested it. It works awesome.
[Motorola Atrix HD] eugenile:
wow, this is a great mod. very underated.

im surprised its not more in demand to have a MENU SOFT KEY, the stock navbar uses a lot of space and it can easily fit a softkey button for menu.

thanks again op, maybe you can add a matching menu (three dots) button in the nav bar section.
[Motorola Atrix HD] devilsking:
I think it's possible. As i Checked in code of menu button, it's only be invisible :P modify the code and it can be come visible. U can do it urself :) I'm busy these time and I dont know when I can do it :(
[Motorola Atrix HD] IP IHI II IL:
I'm an idiot... While wrestling my 2 year old to sleep, I applied the mod without renaming the original systemUI.apk... Now systemUI is dead, and I have no backup. Any chance someone could upload the stock AT&T systemUI.apk PLEASE?

I know... N00b move, but I blame the kid... Lol

Edit: extracted the apk from the rom zip and replaced modded apk. No go... Just gonna reflash and start from scratch... Ugh...

N7...'Nuff said...

[Motorola Atrix HD] devilsking:
Done it as your request. Check the 1st post.
[Motorola Atrix HD] huatz84:
Thanks a lot,bro! Can I request advanced reboot on power menu? :)
[Motorola Atrix HD] devilsking:
U means expanded power menu? For Bell 4.1.2? If yes, I already did and I will upload for u :D :P
[Motorola Atrix HD] huatz84:
Yeah,bro.. For Bell 4.1.2. Thanks a lot! :)
[Motorola Atrix HD] devilsking:
Here u are. Flash it with cwm and remember to mount /system before flashing.

I changed some things in my framework-res (lockscreen mod) so if u want stock one, u can use myth tools to make it go back to default :D

http://d-h.st/Iwt
[Motorola Atrix HD] huatz84:
I also like the lockscreen mod. You are awesome,bro!! You can combine all your mods into a new stable ROM.

Here's my screenshot :
[Motorola Atrix HD] Youngunn2008:
great work keep em coming
[Motorola Atrix HD] eugenile:
WOW!! THANK YOU SIR YOU ARE AWESOME!!

this should be implented in all roms for the atrix hd from now on its that awesome!!
[Motorola Atrix HD] eugenile:
i followed instructions using root explorer in es explorer. extracted the rar. moved it in the system/apps folder

gave the permissions.

then it was crashing

i then realized im in ASOPizza and it wasn't confirmed to work.

i am downloading and will be flashing the mexico retail 4.1.2 JUST so i can use the softkey mods.

im setting this phone up for my sis in law so prefer she has the menu and all the softkeys for ease
[Motorola Atrix HD] huatz84:
This mod is intended for Bell 4.1.2 and Mexico retail only. For aospizza,you can use skeevydude's reboot mod.
[Motorola Atrix HD] eugenile:
yea thanks.

i dont care about the power menu though, i care more so about the soft key menu button row. i think this is the only mod around
[Motorola Atrix HD] neoriix:
Does this work on the mexican retail version?
[Motorola Atrix HD] devilsking:
Havent confirmed yet. U can help us to test if u're on mexican retail. Thank you.
[Motorola Atrix HD] neoriix:
I'm using the retail version of Nextel (Mexican version) and doesn't work, looks the same :(
[Motorola Atrix HD] devilsking:
Can u re-check to see if it's really replaced in system? Becoz if yes and it doesnt work, I dont think your statusbar/nav bar works without any changes. It may be lost or Force close.
[Motorola Atrix HD] neoriix:
The proccess forces to close when I replace it, not working on Mexican retail version :(

I have not been successful flashing any of the kernels. After flash phone wont boot past the Samsung logo. Not sure what else to do. Any ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] juancarlos5:
You made wipe cache and dalvik before flash kernel?

What kernel you flash?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] robin48:
Yeah did the wipe. Tried them all.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] wase4711:
you have to make sure that you flash an AOSP kernel on an AOSP rom, and a TW kernel on a TW rom...are you doing that?

what exact kernal are you using each type of ROM?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] freakboy13:
^this

Well first thing ya better do is see if you still got your recovery.

:p

Then if you could, give us more details?

You said you flashed so you HAD recovery but what about now?

How did you get to where you are at?

What kernels did you try n flash?

Were you on stock kernel?

Rom?

You are on a sghi317?

Im going to assume this is your backup device your posting from?

You ...did unlock your phone right?? :eek:

Lol you'd be surprised...:rolleyes:

I would check two things:

1.Do I have recovery still

2.Can I get into dl mode

Post back! :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] robin48:
Oh yeah I was able to get back to recovery just fine. Did restore and decided to leave kernels alone lol. I'm currently running Liquid Smooth. Never had issue like this before. Had the same trouble with Carbon and with Sean's Skynote TW rom
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] robin48:
Phone is not unlocked but is rooted.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] juancarlos5:
You use kernel for i317 in your n7105?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] robin48:
No its a i317. Don't know why it says that.

Hi,

i just flashed jellyshot 4.3 and i getting this message when i turn on the cellphone:

"insufficient storage to complete this action. Please free up space and try again", i don't know why if every thing is empty, i did a clean install and i just installed whatsapp and Facebook....

i used to have CM10 and i got the same message, its really strange, i always do a clean install...

thx
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Might2Be:
Try to check the backup files

it's take too much space
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cas0404:
Thx but i always do a full wipe before flashing... So all partitions are with space ... I dont know why my phone shows that.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Might2Be:
i know you wipe every thing

but you have to go to the file of back up

and delete it manually by your self

just delete the file of back up that you don't need it
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cas0404:
I got it, but where are those backup files???

Thx

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] iB4STiD:
To begin, I am no galaxy fan boy.. But even I of all people wanna give my thoughts on this little issue, This may help someone who is on the fence if they should go out and buy a htc one instead.

Why the lag on a flagship phone?

Samsung I imagine had a good understanding of the time frame of the launch of the "one", They also Knew Apples time frame for when they might launch a new iPhone. As a company they knew they had to get there device out b4 apple and in a perfect world, around the time htc would drop there new flagship device. In my mind Samsung is a hardware company in the past they have shown there software isn't always, well ""ready for prime time". Samsung Knew they had bumped up the specs, but the design language would remain in tact from the s3 to give customers a sense of a "brand", similarly to what Apple has done since 2007 with the iPhone. Problem was Samsung Knew they could not Compete with Apple or htc as far as build quality goes and since the design language was not so far removed from the s3 they needed something to set it apart, all while fighting a deadline.

So there plan was to build upon the latest android OS, use that as a selling point along with 10000 software gimmicks, and if there was any issues or bugs, they would be ironed out later.

Nice story, but that doesn't fix my lag issue!

I would agree, but.... My take on all that (if the case) is that once Samsung puts out a ota, things will improve greatly. Now, it may take an update or two. But I know one thing, Samsung is a company with money and a lot of it, they can afford to throw money at this and optimize touchwiz to be where it should have been on launch!

I'll end this with something I was thinking about, I owned a "one" for a day, And tho the build quality was solid, I realized I had to use this as a device. Sense 5 is a mess, a simple task like dragging a shortcut onto a homescreen led me into a sense of confusion, and a end result of "who came up with that idea?" Never have I felt confused by an OS, I have made roms for most of the flagship devices on different carriers. I never once felt like I needed to read a manual to get around a device. Again I'm not a fan boy of Samsung or hate HTC, I even own an iPhone 5 :).

Buy what makes you happy, Be on Samsung's A$$ and complain as much as needed, but i have a feeling that this will be fixed. I for one am happy with the s4, and look forward releasing roms for this device.

Important to note

My stock s4 runs smoother than a stock s3 running 4.1.2, My lag is more of a stutter at times, which at the end of the day, is just TW needing to be optimized. From what I have read the s3 suffered from the same sorta thing when launched
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] calvin35:
I hope you are right about getting an update to this phone as it desperately needs it. When the LG Optimus G Pro outperforms the latest Samsung flagship you know there is a problem.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] raqball:
Samsung problem is they want to overload Android with gimmicks, and a TON of them..

For some reason they also feel the need to duplicate Google systems, apps and functions which also makes the matter worse..

S Translate? Seriously Samsung? Google already had this. I can go on but you get the idea and know the drill.

I wish Samsung would get rid of all the gimmicks as most don't work anyway and focus on hardware and on fine tuning TW.

I really don't mind TW if they would just tweak and de-bloat it..

If they don't fix the issues they run the risk of heading down the same road traveled by BlackBerry, and HTC..

You are only of top in the Smartphone game if you keep pumping out high quality devices. If the S4 gets a bad rap and / or leaves a sour taste in people mouth then they won't buy the S5 and down the king will start to go..

As of right now I would not recommend that a family member or friend get the S4.. And that's bad news for Samsung if others do the same..

My .02
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] SlimJ87D:
Totally feel you on that last part. I actually feel partially responsible if someone asks for a recommendation and I give them a bad one.

I recommended the sgs4 to one of my coworkers. Now i feel like it might have been a bad idea.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] WCF:
I recommended the S4 to a family member and became worried after reading about all the lag. He has been waiting all this time for the black HTC One, but since it is nowhere in sight he went for the S4.

I warned him about the lag on the S4, but we went to take a look at it anyway. We did not experience any lag on the device whatsoever. Right away, we disabled S-View, Smartstay, Smartscroll, etc etc etc from the notification bars. We still dislike that there is so much bloatware that you can't uninstall without root, but we do not experience the lag reported on this forum.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Nizda1:
I havent yet either. However same as you I disabled most of that junk and switched to nova for now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Mike:
The amount of lag threads on this forum is too damn high!

It's making XDA lag... LOL :silly:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Planktron:
Lag? What lag? 60 apps and counting and the only lag I've noticed is the native gallery is quite slow. Everything else is snappy. Keyboard pops up instantly, chrome loads in milliseconds.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ovoxo.:
You're one of the lucky few.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Mike:
The only time I really ever feel like there is a delayed response is when hitting the home button. There is a noticable delay when using it to exit apps or even when on other homescreens and using it to get to the default screen. Anyone else? Other than that everything seems to be working well. Hope you guys get everything straightened out though.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] gzrecoil:
I don't have much lag either, sometimes, it's there, but relative to the Atrix and Atrix HD, there is nothing to complain about. Didn't really notice a difference after freezing all the bloat either. I have recommended the galaxy to a lot of people and know at least three people who purchased it on my recommendation.

That being said, it would be nice if they patched it up a little better, this thing has more potential for sure.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Hippoman13:
I did two things and now my S4 has no lag. Importantly, I'm rooted.

1) Deleted (not just disabled) all bloatware that I don't want.

2) Changed the CPU governor to 'Interactive' from 'Ondemand'.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] j510:
I factory reset once I got my phone. No lag
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Hippoman13:
That is probably due to S-Voice, disable its start up from a double tap in the settings of the app itself

You have to be joking? Sense is a mess because you can't read the word shortcut on the top left of your screen when in your app drawer when you long press an app to add to your homescreen. By your logic TW is a mess because you can't simply drag one app into another to create a folder.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] jiwengang:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] iB4STiD:
sense 5 is a mess, why? at the end of the day its a "UI" that htc claims to be easier to use than stock, tell that to anyone that owns a nexus 4 :), Who has to long press a shortcut from an app tray , only to have nothing happen, only when u drag that shortcut to the status bar area does "shortcut" pop up, your trying to tell me someone ls gonna guess that ? come on, at the end of the day htc has to sell this to people that just want a phone that is "intuitive" hence why there about to go out of business! .. sense has been a bloated wreck since the hero, you can defend your purchase but if you have a "one" why you here? buyers remorse?

btw good luck on those updates, when did the one x get jelly bean? oh ya that's right march 2013. htc will just have you buy the "one.2" for that next major android update :cool:

And ya you always can flash cm, but is the regular joe gonna do that? no, there going to see that the galaxy gets updates. that's one thing i give Samsung, and again Im not there biggest fan

sad part is I loved my g1 and nexus, but those days are over time to move on.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nisekyuu:
Hi guys I'm caught in a bad situation. I tried to install a ROM but it went bad so I booted into CWM and erased everything including /data and /system as well as /cache and everything else except for /0 amd /clockworkmod. I then proceeded to install another ROM but it went fine until halfway through it quit and went back into CWM. I didn't know what to do so I restarted the phone into the bootloader and just clicked factory reset hoping it would fix something. But it restarted and stayed on the HTC screen that has the development text and copyright warning on the bottom. It got stuck there for quite a while so I restarted the phone again and tried to go back to CWM but now it just flashes briefely before restarting itself to do the same thing over again! Help please I'm scared I might have bricked it

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ybcb:
Hello,

I am a complete noob when it comes to dealing with phones.

I have a Sony Xperia Sola (firmware 6.1.1.B.1.54 ICS)

I downloaded Rom Manager via Play Store and want to flash a custom rom.

But whenever I try to select the option "Reboot and Install", only a normal boot happens.

How do I reboot and install the rom?? I have tried the button combos (power+volume - and volume +) but nothing works.

Please help!

PS

I am

-rooted

-bootloader unlocked

-clockworkmod recovery via recoverX

-rom is [ROM] Unoficial JellyBean stockrom 6.2.A.0.400 Sola
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] k66473:
I understand that the rom you mentioned is recently ported and also deleted from development section of sola (munjeni rom).

According to his instruction, you need to do following thing:

Enter fastboot mode (off phone then hold volume up and plug cable)

Flash boot.img in zip Rom file to phone (fastboot flash boot boot.img)

Turn on phone and enter recovery menu (on phone then spam the volume down)

Do the clear data, cache... then install the zip file (rom)

Done.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] zombiegenerator:
Why was the rom deleted from the development section? Any clue? It was such an useful rom (using it myself)

And no, the original instruction only said to flash the zip file. Not fastboot the kernel before that. Fastbooting is only necessary I you get boot loops on normal flashing
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ybcb:
I finally got into recovery mode yesterday (CWM touch), but today when I tried to do it again, only a stock recovery occurred. What happened?? I can't go back into cwm touch recovery

You have not flashed your kernel (boot.img) properly
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ybcb:
I finally got into recovery mode, but when trying to flash the JB rom, it says something about a (Status 7 error) Flash aborted. how did you successfully flash yours?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] k66473:
First, you flash the stock ICS rom of sola. It will create the compatible partitions for JB in sola.

Second, you enter recovery mode and wipe all data, cache.... (maybe flash boot.img is required to entering this mode)

Finally, you install the zip file (rom).

Good luck.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ybcb:
I have flashed stock ICS, but even after I wiped/factoy reset, it still says Status 7 error:(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] k66473:
Maybe you should try to flash the boot.img in the zip file of munjeni before entering recovery mode and wipe all data, cache.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
You flash in fastboot mode, or with recovery, but you must have unlocked bootloader, or it will brick your phone.
