I have uninstalled your ROM because I have overheat in my tablet...... My tablet was very very hot..... And the battery was decreasing very fast!! Battery drain!!! I don't know why it starts to overheat but this is dangerous..... Please fix it...... Thanks..... And you are doing a good work,.... Just ....just .... Just continue!!! ;)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Skyfall007:
I'm not experiencing overheating or battery drain. Flash factory image and then install the rom... I don't have what to fix!

ps: try first with a custom kernel... it will control your cpu cores better than stock one does so your tab will be cooler

[MENTION=4325717]Skyfall007[/MENTION] I am LOVING these animations! In fact, I was able to pull them successfully from your ROM and add them to the framework on my S4, and it worked perfectly. Do you mind if I share the animations (in the form of a VRTheme flashable zip) with the folks over on the S4 forums?

All credit will be given to you, of course :)
[Nexus 7 Android Development] Skyfall007:

[Nexus 7 Android Development] alonsoch:
So strange...... I flashed stock 4.2.2 and all is fine...... The first 2 days all was working excellent... The third no...... Maybe is my tablet or something like that..... Thanks for the answer ....... I will flash your rom again in the future.... Thanks!!

[Nexus 7 Android Development] Skyfall007:
don't worry.. it's the updater script.(a prank).that's what the installation must show.. install it again and reboot..

I'm recent member of this forum and I would like, in my first post, to congratulate everybody involved for the high quality of the information provided.

The reason of my post is simple, I've recently purchased a T-Mobile MDAII in Germany and I would like to change it for English.

Rom version: 1.60.00 GER

Rom date: 12/03/03

Radio version: 1.06.01

Protocol: 1 337.16

Ext Rom version: 1.60.07

I appreciate if anybody out there could give some simple directions from where should I start. I have seem that there are a lot of upgrades with different features however for now I would like to start slowly, if possible.

Best Regards

So I made a backup of my stock TW state with TWRP and then flashed over to a custom ROM.

Is it safe to just restore the backup of the original stock, rooted TW ROM?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] tdevaughn:
yes
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] ExBrasil:
I didn't Loki my original TW though. Would that be a prob?

I just installed the recovery via Goo Manager and flashed a Loki'd ROM

Why would you need to Loki the original TW? It's a signed AT&T ROM, it's gonna verify just fine with or without loki :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Josephfilbert:
Mobile ODIN operation always ends with everroot after that it reboots before wiping data/cache/dalvik cache.

I used this on first time when upgrading my tab from ICS to JB, mobile odin did not wipe and did not perform everroot. Fortunately, there are no bootloops.

Because I was curious why is this happening, I tried again by downgrading back to ICS. It flashes all partitions except data, it ends with everroot and reboot (skipping wipe). The flashing process ends with samsung logo bootloop. Fortunately, I still can go to recovery mode to wipe user data. After rebooting to ICS, neither SuperSU nor Mobile ODIN was found in app drawer. And root is lost.

Is there anyone know why is this happening?

UPDATE :

Now the wipe is now working, I think sometimes it doesn't work. However EverRoot DOES NOT work at all! Opening SuperSU and it can't install the binary.

Software :

Mobile ODIN Pro v3.65

Mobile ODIN Flash kernel APK (eu.chainfire.mobileodin.flashkernel.p6200.v2)

Android 4.1.2 (P6200XXMD6/P6200XXMC3/P6200OLBMD5)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] seking:
I Think it may want you to flash the same firmware again. That may be the reason. Like sometimes we may want reflash the same firmware, we need not root again.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Josephfilbert:
I have retried re-flashing ICS (4.1.2 to 4.0.4), I chose all partitions flashed except data, I enabled EverRoot, wipe data and cache, wipe dalvik cache.

Flashing successful but ends in Samsung logo bootloop, I tried to wipe data in recovery, and tab could boot successfully but it was unrooted.

So I can say that flashing using Mobile ODIN Pro (v3.65) on Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus GT-P6200 cannot wipe data and cache (wipinh dalvik cache seems still working) and cannot inject root (EverRoot)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Josephfilbert:
I wonder how does EverRoot and wipe data actually works and why it doesn't work on all devices. Is anyone know ?

ClockworkMod Recovery:

ClockworkMod Recovery zips are used for flashing individual files to whole ROMS and can be a life saver if you push a badly edited apk to your Phone that results in a bootloop. There's also a few programs that can assist you with that too, but if all you're doing is replacing a few files all you really need is a template, then it's just a matter of creating the Phones folder setup in the zip which is simply creating folders: system\app - system\media\audio etc then dragging and dropping your files into it. A basic understanding of the updater script is essential, a ROM.zip will more than likely wipe your Phone whereas a Theme.zip may just replace files but it might delete some also.​

In the Apktool_2.4.4.zip is my CWM_backup.zip which is set up so you can add your own files to the framework and apps folders in the main system location, but you can easily add other folders to it if you want to add things like fonts, tones or anything else, just remember to add folders within folders if that's where the files you want to include are such as tones, media\audio\alarms for example. When adding files to your zip add them using Normal as the Compression Method and remember to remove any example files I've added otherwise they will be flashed to your phone too.

View attachment 1990173

and for setting color, i want to change text color to holo_blue

I don't think it will be, it is either a protected apk or from a brand of Phone that isn't that common would be my guess, but you'd need to list the error logs?

hi

i have a question

if i modified file in values folders in framework, then i just have to copy resources.arsc to sign the apk?

or i must copy other files?
[Android General] SXUsr:
The code for that is probably in your SystemUI.apk, but cant quite remember where, but it will have "date" in the code.

You still need the meta folder and manifest too.

OK

I modified values folder and AndroidManifest

the i compiled the framework and copied meta and resources but got bootloop :(

please help
[Android General] SXUsr:
You need to copy 3 files in total, if you're still bootlooping then check what you've modified.

...Sent from Zed
[Android General] dhirend_6d:
And make sure resources.arsc is not compressed in the APK. I have had bootloops many times because of compressed resources.arsc. :p

Its in SystemUI.apk in styles.xml.

<style name="TextAppearance.StatusBar.Expanded" parent="@*android:style/TextAppearance.StatusBar" />
<style name="TextAppearance.StatusBar.Expanded.Clock" parent="@style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Expanded">
<item name="android:textSize">32.0dip</item>

<item name="android:textStyle">normal</item>

[Android General] Karim Kahale:

[Android General] SXUsr:
You don't install system apps in that manner, you need to copy/move it to the system (where your build.prop is) and change the permissions, then move and overwrite the original and should work without having to reboot, if you don't see your changes then reboot, done. :)
[Android General] Karim Kahale:
