Hello, i have downloaded Alexander Theme JX0218, however the icons arent as valid when using an alt home screen loader like Go Launcher. Is there an icon pack from this theme out there? When i search the zip file for .png, there are over 14,000 and for whatever reason my computer cant/wont copy, i think some are inside .apks, i'm not really sure. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] technut:
If you find the .APK that your icons reside in just rename it to .zip and unzip. Walaaa instant folder of icons.:good:

As the development is lifting off, it is immediately apparent to me that we need to find a solid hosting platform for our Devs. There have been a couple of ROMs already put out there that I have not been able to download due to an extremely slow rate. (30 - 80 kb/s)

I am posting here before spending my own cash on a solution. Is there anyone on this device who can offer file hosting that will give us reliable and speedy downloads?

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cloudyherb:
I got a general enquiry, if I am currently on a trickdroid custom rom and wanted to flash ARHD, do I make a nandroid back up then full wipe before flashing ARHD? But when I restore the nandroid, does it revert me back to trickdroid since the nandroid backup was built using the data of trickdroid?

My goal is to change Roms but also able to retain apps and settings that I have set in my last Rom.

I just downloaded titanium backup too.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gunnyman:
Nandroid is a complete backup of /system /data and boot.img. You want titanium backup to retain data from rom to rom.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cloudyherb:
I have read a few threads but wasn't sure, thank you for confirming this. Much appreciated.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gunnyman:
just avoid restoring system data, just restore apps and userdata.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cloudyherb:
Hi Gunnyman, I have googled some guides in regards to wiping rom and restoring backups created by Titanium backup.

In my understanding of the process, The major point is not to restore system data and system apps as you have mentioned, but couple of guides have mentioned just to download the apps from the play/market store instead just restore the actual apps that was backed up by Titanium (So this will only restore the apps data). If this is true, is there a way to automatically download all my apps after I sign into my accounts after setting up the new ROM and restore partially the data from TiBU?

Many thanks in advance.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gunnyman:
Unfortunately Google's "restore this phone" feature you see when setting up a phone is hit or miss and there's no way to force it to do so.

HTC backup, present on some ROMS here, like mike1986's ahrd does the trick it uses dropbox to store backups of your phone.

I just use TiBu for everything as it always works and is more convenient for me.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cloudyherb:
This is actually my first Android phone, I have always been using iphone (jailbroken), but I was never a religious loyal fan of their products, it is like a streamlined factory of robots and using it makes me feels like a prisoner. Android's customisation definitely lured me here, I research their system and finds it more promising in terms of customisation and personalisation.

I have a 25GB dropbox account, which was a free subscription rewarded for registering a new dropbox account through HTC devices., ( I had one existing 2gb account so I used a new e-mail address.)

I have actually turned off the HTC sync option, delete my account and disabled it. I saw posts on the forums that this is to maximise battery performances as constant syncing drains battery to a fair degree.

I am actually on ARHD 7.1 but considering flashing Trickdroid for experimenting purposes and also to test out its customisation ability in comparison.

What is your backup setup like? For example, if you would have to flash to a different ROM, or updating a Rom, would the steps be different? Because updating a rom over an existing one, IE ARHD 7.3 over ARHD 7.1, it can be flashed dirty without wiping right?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gunnyman:
I always do a factory wipe, then restore my titanium backup. back up in running with new ROM in 15 minutes.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cloudyherb:
And then using HTC and dropbox to restore your apps? But using TiBU to restore the apps settings over?

The user data have to be input manually, correct?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gunnyman:
I use HTC sync then tibu to restorethe data and any apps it may have missed.

hello everyone,

After flashind a prerooted deodexed zipaligned stock rom...

when i open playstore to update youtube.apk..

it says that it isnt signed properly...

does that have to do something with zipaligned??
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Primokorn:
Hi

Most of Custom ROMs have zipaligned apps. Do u have this issue with YouTube only or all your apps?

If YouTube is the only app that doesn't work, let us know where you downloaded it.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] oFFgotoFF:
Not so long ago I was total noob for Android, few posts later and nothing has changed :victory: JK off course, the truth is that I learned some basic stuff (rooting, unlocking bootloader, difference between SU and regular user, customization and CWM etc.) and all that thanks to you guys - god bless YouTube, inetrnet and XDA developers! :highfive:

Now the probing questions:

1. Is it possible to flash custom ROM's to Miro with bootloader locked (currently stock)?

2. Which one would suit me best (gaming and/or performance is a MUST!)?

3. What to install mod other then CWM (cuzz it's not supported by phone)?

Thx guys, I'll make sure to thank each and every one of y'all! :o
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] c4cyro:
1. Yes u can always use stock based roms without unlocking.

2. My personal opinion is that The ultrabeast rom has great gaming performance. Im using it currently.

3. Didn't get your question.

Sent from my ST23i
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] oFFgotoFF:
In order to flash the ROM onto device I need some Mod and ClokWork Mod is not supported by Miro (for fastboot etc.) so which one should I choose?

Is there any way u could send me a download link and instructions for that ROM?

So many question marks....
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] c4cyro:
Who told you that cwm does not work for miro? It works very well.

There is a separate thread for that.did you try to search? Just go to the android development section. There you will find both cwm and twrp. Install whatever you want. I prefer cwm.

And you will also find the rom alongwith instructions there only.

Sent from my ST23i
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] oFFgotoFF:
Thx dude, and still waiting for that ROM of yours, if its not much to ask cuzz I tried everywhere and seems I can't find it :confused:
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] auni:
Do not post questions which indicates "Which is the BEST ROM" or such issues. It's strictly against the XDA Rules.

The point of the forum is try out different ROMs available in the development section. So browse around and try and see it yourself.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] idtheftvictim:
Does anyone know of a 4.1.2 MC6 Rom with the option to change the music track from the lockscreen like in CM10.1?

I would like to go back to touchwiz for a while and see if battery life gets any better, and also for the stability since CM10.1 has been pretty bad lately.

Any suggestions?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] iburnhearts:
Touchwiz lock screen doesn't incorporate widgets like aosp does. But some music apps will create their own lock screen with music control.

You can however pull down your notification and skip songs without unlocking the phone.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] HANSB57:
Hi There all,

I bricked my device!

I installed multi window manager and ran the patch.

I should have not done this.

After one last message (something like copy binary from SD card) the device was dead.

Any help is highly appreciated
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] sefrcoko:
Can you access recovery or download mode?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] HANSB57:
No I cant.

All combinations (power, volume home etc.. failed)

Removed back cover, disconencted battery

No result.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] roustabout:
How did you remove the back cover?

I've been able to get mine out of pickles not involving the /boot partition by holding down the volume down, home and power keys simultaneously. Shortly after the model 5110 message displays, I release power and am asked if I really want to put the device into update mode.

I use Odin to write in the firmware I downloaded from samfirmware a few weeks ago.

I needed to do this last night after trying to disable a few system apps. I'm not sure which, probably a thing called "bubble," but as soon as I had, the device froze. A reboot went all the way through but then locked up after my startups finished.

I also needed to do this after something much closer to a soft brick involving trying to use the Xposed framework to change lcd density.

I reflashed and was able to defrost and I was back in business.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] roustabout:
something just occurred to me - you've pulled out your sdcard and set it aside? sometimes a bodgy sdcard can get in the way of boot up, though it seems unlikely here.

It doesn't seem that patching the framework, even if it keeps you from booting past the model # screen, should be able to keep the device from at least powering on.

If you connect it to your PC and try holding in power for ~30 seconds, does any USB device or android device activity occur at all, even if a device appears and disappears again?

I did find that I had a "konawifi" device attached to my PC and needed to update its driver to access the device in CWR mode.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] HANSB57:
I pulled the SD card

This afternoon I will try your tip (connecting it to the PC)

I also will try a jig although I think this is useless

My last resort is back to Samsung. I have 2 choices, repair or make a frisbee out of it. I prefer the first option especially beacause I was rather pleased with the device
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] roustabout:
I tried making a jig when I bricked my Galaxy Media Player, and it did not work. Samsung repaired it, eventually.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] HANSB57:
Just brought it back to shop. Will sent it back to Samsung.

will take 3 weeks. Luckely I have my trusted tab 10.1 to use.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] bjbinc:
Its totally impossible that patching the FlashBarService.apk could completely brick your device... A Boot loop is possible, but not a brick.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] kennielsen:
Flashed the wrong recovery!

Hi there, Ive soft bricked my Note 8.0 by accidentally flashing Note 2 recovery. Anyone know how I can fix this? Stuck in boot screen. I can get to download mode and Odin recognizes it, but I have no idea what to do from there.

Any advice/help would be greatly appreciated..
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] rowihel2012:

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] iselfseeallah:
Sorry but I am new to soft brick. Have 3 rooted devices and never brick before. Can put device in download mode as kennielsen but I'm lost after that. Details on what to do and how to do it would be very nice, please!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aimetti:
Does anyone know if its possible to add google music to the HTC car mode app?

You can click the + and add the ICON but the controls do not work in car mode. They are stuck to just HTC music app.

Back on the htc one x you could go into music app and select google music so it would work in car mode but doesnt seem to be the case now.

Not sure if its just not possible at this point.

Thanks
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aimetti:
Guess im the only one this bothers haha
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IIHomieII:
The way Android music players work is whichever app was started last AND a song was started in that player it is now in control of the buttons..

so for example you can add the Google Play Music app to the car dock then go into it and play a song from that point on the dock's main screen it will still have control of the play and pause next and back buttons.

It will not be updated on the dock screen showing what the song is because that is part of the HTC music app but if you are on a car stereo via bluetooth for example, the song titles information are still played from the Google Music Player to the stereo..
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Hexen302:
Ok so I have noticed the included headphones with the One look just like beats without the branding. Also to me at least they sound very good. Could they be beats internally? Any thoughts.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Teklock:
Yes, it's no secret HTC builds all "Beats" products now instead of Monster Cable.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] _MetalHead_:
HTC only owns 25% of the Beats brand. Beats is its own company and they build all their own products. The headphones included do look like they belong in the Beats line but they don't match any of Beats' current offerings. That said, I'm sure they were designed to give off a Beats vibe but Beats they are not. They are good quality for a free headphone, I will give them that. Beats headphones suck anyways so don't look at it like it's a negative that they aren't actually Beats headphones.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Teklock:
That is not true. Beats never made their own products, Mosnter Cable did until last year. HTC makes ALL of them now. Go to Bestbuy or Frys and look on the back of the box. The box looks exactly the same except one will say made by HTC and the Old stock with say made by Monster Cable. But yes you are technically correct, "Beats" is it's own company. They just don't actually make anything.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] rgoyena:
Dude the headphones sounds so good
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Teklock:
I agree, and for what it's worth. I find the HTC made "Beats" to sound much better than the Monster Cable made.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] _MetalHead_:
I am aware that Monster used to make Beats headphones. In fact, when Beats first came out they were not only manufactured by Monster, but were also completely designed by them, regardless of what Dre and Iovine would have you believe. When Beats and Monster split, Beats got all the patents. Now they manufacture their own. HTC doesn't design or build Beats headphones. They just have a percentage of the company. They had the controlling stake when they first bought in which would explain the "By HTC" on the box because technically if you own 50.1% of a company, you can say you build their products. They only have 25% now. Either way, HTC never actually built Beats headphones. HTC's factories are in Taiwan, Beats are made in China. You can Google all this if you don't believe me.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] omgabunny:
Just my opinion but they look like crap and the bass is all muddled. That being said, they tend to stay in my ear better than some of my other earbuds and I do like the flat cable.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Teklock:
When Monster made Beats they were actually made by Foxconn (as most Monster products are), but now they are indeed made by a HTC owned (ok controlled may be a better word) plant. As I have said before Beats doesn't make anything as with most American "brands" like this. And yes, I know this for a fact. As we all know, the actual plants that make these types of products are always subcontracted.

The point I'm making by all of this, is that fact that the old Beats and the new Beats sound completely different (for the better) and HTC can make headphones that are identical to "Beats" and not call them "Beats". Case in point. This is exactly what they are doing with the included headphones with the One.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] graffixnyc:
Actually Beats got back most of their ownership from HTC. They were 50/50 owned but Beats bought back half of the HTC owned section and now the Beats brand owns 75% of Beats and HTC only owns 25%. Far from HTC controlling them

[AT&T HTC One (M7)] ErebusRaze:
I've been prowling the these boards and heard that the cheap looking headphones were better than the ones included in my S4. So I did a comparison today and grabbed the cheap red and black ones from my girlfriends HTC One box. May I say I am disappointed in Samsung. HTC not only has better sounding speakers but a better sounding headphone. From lows to highs and bass these headphones rival Beats. They're ugly though.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] jeebuz:
They sounded good for a whole 10 minutes. The wire at the base of the jack, when wiggled just a tiny bit, causes loss of sound and distortion. That wire didn't last long. :P
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] designgears:
Haha, love the people that think they sound... they sound TERRIBLE! The apple earpods sound almost as good as a $200 pair of earbuds. These beats audio ones that came with the phone and in general are so muddy sounding... You guys need to get your hearing checked.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] sjorge3442:
who uses ear buds anyway? I just throw them in my bag to have them in case my bluetooth, over the ear headphones die.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] _MetalHead_:
I use earbuds. I have a set of Yuin PK2s that are pretty much the best $80 I've ever spent. I tossed a set of yurbuds sleeves on them and never looked back. I also have a pair of Shure E5Cs and SE530s both of which were $500 when they came out, and I prefer the Yuins over both of them. When I travel I use my trusty Sony Z1000 which are some of the most detailed and articulate cans I've ever listened to. They are also about $500. But yeah, the buds that came with the phone suck compared to other things out there, but considering that they were free, I think they sound pretty decent. Would I ever use them? Absolutely not.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] nattoleon:

I often get a laugh when reading user experiences on xda-developers, and not just from the poster's wit. Some of the typos and spelling mistakes are enough to completely change the context of messages to the point that they're hilarious!

Perhaps the news area on the front page could also include a post-of-the-day/week/whatever as voted by members/moderators? A button could be added to the post-view screen to allow members to vote for a post if it tickles their fancy, and the post with the most votes would be displayed in the news area.

The XDA Developers site is place to make laughs but first to share experiences and help about XDA devices.
