Anybody running the dark dialer, mms, contacts theme http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2366938?

It's working fine but I lose native call recording after flash, is there anyway to get it back and keep the dark theme?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mwep:
Leaving it open on Faux Kernel didnt work. After 2 mins the camera app closed. Reopened it and message came back.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mcleaver84:
Some have this problem others don't. Try doing a full wipe then flashing again if it doesn't sort out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] templton:
I can confirm that I did have the dark dailer theme working, don't have it to a t yet but I believe that flashing the old remove smart eye and wifi notification has been causing a loop... Overall absolute favorite rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nicholi2789:
Flash a different kernel. It won't finish on Faux kernel. I would personally recommend KT kernel. Best kernel out there in my opinion. My camera wouldn't update and then as soon as I flashed KT kernel I opened it and let it sit for about five minutes and it was done. From what everyone else is saying the stock kernel works fine too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
Everything is running great, even got google wallet up and running without issue.

Question though. Would it be possible to make a flashable zip of the stock status bar for those who don't change the color? As well as a stock TW notification dropdown with dividers and that blueish background behind "Notifications" etc? I'll explain.

On a normal (stock) me7 rom the homescreen and lockscreen status bar is transparent by default. When you enter into an application it actually turns to a shade of an extremely dark grey by default (very close to black).

Now my issue with some applications using this rom is as follows - status bar set to black but at max transparency because I like the look on the home and lockscreen. But sometimes I'll see the completely transparent bar over a game and let's say, wifi icon, clock, etc.

Notice the upper right hand corner for example. And the status bar below. It should be that near black color like stock.

Is it possible somehow to revert the status bar as well as the notification dropdown to total stock behavior with a flashable zip? (without touching anything else like music controls etc). I understand that all of this functionality is taken care of using the xml files in the SystemUI.apk. I just don't know how or where to begin.

Sorry if that's confusing, but that's my only "gripe" if you even want to call it that. Otherwise, this rom running faux kernel from aroma is lightening!

If anyone, including BEANS is reading this thanks for any help resolving this.

I would also like to add that the phone auto rotation is a stock feature of the latest me7 build. For everyone concerned about that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] fletch33:
cant you just to to My Device > Custom Settings > Rom Control > Status Bar Mods > Statusbar color and make it black again? wouldnt that solve your issue?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] idrive67elky:
Aroma? Wipe?

Hey, sorry for the noob question. Is there a writeup on what the Aroma installer thing is? Also, what the OTA update thing in the ROM is..

Is Aroma a way to backup/reinstall app settings and logins similar to titanium? If not, is there a way to re-install all my settings easily with Beans ROMs?

Also, the instructions say to wipe when updating.

Is this wipe required? I am on B5 now. Back when I had gnex(toro) running Shiny ROM, I could always just dirty flash the updated ROM version through TWRP recovery. Only wipe was required when major updates (like ICS to JB) came in. From B5-B6 is just a JB to JB minor update, right?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jds3118:
I recommend following instructions and the full wipe only for the fact B6 is the ME7 base from the MDK base. As for aroma it's a tool to help give devs the ability to add xtra features and mods to there roms for example bloatware apps, music player apps , as well as icons like signal bars and centering the clock etc.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] anthony92170:
check post 1911 i posted both
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
Problem with that is if I make the status bar black in the rom settings, it remains black on the home screen and lock screen. I'm looking to just keep the stock me7 status bar behavior. (Transparent on the home screen and blackish color while in app.)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] fletch33:
you have got something going on with yours that i do not have on this rom. my lockscreen and taskbar is transparent and apps are solid black as they should be. not sure why yours is different?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
Do you have something other than a solid black background to show your app switcher?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] fletch33:
duh haha i didnt even think of that. i switched to a blue background and it looked like yours. sorry about that :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
Yeah in some applications, including the app switcher it will show up as transparent. It just does it when it's not supposed to lol.

Curious to see if beans can concoct a flashable to revert the status bar to stock me7 behavior.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cubarican84:
If you are running the touchwiz launcher with any of the touchwiz wallpapers than the status bar will be transparent on the home screen. But if using any other wallpapers the status bar should revert to black
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
That's how it should be, but because you have status bar mods in the rom it remains transparent at times where it shouldn't, such as the app switcher.

The notification dropdown is also slightly different than stock, not having dividers or a blue background behind where it says "Notifications".

I've PMed BEANS to see if he can give some insight on this as everyone has their specific wants with a rom. Hopefully he'll get back to me. Lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] VadimTk:
I am still getting notification on 100% battery charged.

What is the proper way to fully disable it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xray808:
Love love the ROM, my question stems from 2 things... Has anyone found a way to fix the bluetooth stack for streaming of audio for music??? Bluetooth works perfectly but seems to skip and drop for any type of streaming audio. Proximity Sensor fix? When enabled my phone shuts off the screen upon the phone app which is awesome, however during a call or after a call the screen doesnt automatically light back up, so i have to physically power the screen on then end the call, instead of pulling away and it coming up... REAL PITA and not like any of my other 6 droid devices :(.... even my wifes old ass nexus does this correctly. Thanks again for all the hard work gents!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] fletch33:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] tombepa:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SCDroid:
So anyone have a fix for phone app rotating when in a call?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dseda86:
There's nothing to fix, that's stock phone behavior on me7.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SCDroid:
Wow. Ok. I've had 6 Android phones and have never seen the phone app rotate when you have auto rotate toggled off for the whole system. That's wild and incredibly stupid.

[HTC One S] kkevin94:
Hello all. I got my One S from a guy that didn't want it anymore. It came rooted and flashed with CM10.1. I've gone into fastboot and it says I'm unlocked, s-off, and on hboot 1.14. My question is if this means that to change ROMs all I do is wipe/clear and flash. Or do I have to flash GUI or boot.img every time. I use to have a LG P509, but this seems to be much more complex than that device's flashing.

Thanks
[HTC One S] dwarriors1987:
Yeah all you have to do is wipe and then flash.
[HTC One S] blackcell1:
S-on means your security is on and HTC semi locks your boot loader so you need to flash the boot.IMG via fastboot or the GUI to bypass htcs stupid bootloader limitations, being as the ville/one s now has s-off (as your phone is) you don't need to flash the boot.IMG after flashing the rom. I hope this helps you understand a little more.

Hey guys! Daniel here on my unlocked HTC one (dev addition)....

I have been having some issues with my camera, every custom kernel I have tried has made it be black, and unresponsive.

So far I have tried elementalX (The Kernel I hope to have work), and 2 other xda kernels, all with both camera fix on and off...

I have also tried this with the stock ROM, and CleanROM, with no change in effect~

Any ideas for diagnosing this issue?

There isn't even source code for 1.29 properly yet, never mind the new Android 4.2.2 :D I'd strongly recommend using the stock kernel until the source code is released for kernel devs

I'm surprised the only issue you're having is with camera tbh :D

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abtekk:
As a little personal learning project, I'm having a go at trying to build ICS AOSP for my phone (Haier W718).

To start off I copied the moto/stingray device folder and modified all the files/folders to fit my phone to the best of my ability, mainly due to the fact that I don't have much experience in this field yet, and I'm doing my best to learn.

I added the device to the lunch menu, and lunch loads the variables correctly. However, upon running

make -j6

, the compiler process spits out the following:

==============================================
PLATFORM_VERSION_CODENAME=REL
PLATFORM_VERSION=4.0.4
TARGET_PRODUCT=full_w718
TARGET_BUILD_VARIANT=userdebug
TARGET_BUILD_TYPE=release

Now, I can successfully compile Android for full_eng IF my device folder is not present.

For reference sake, I've attached my device folder as a .zip, if you wouldn't mind looking through the files.

[Acer Iconia A500] j8ner:
Ok, I seem to be making things worse and worse, so I've come here to beg for help.

TLDR:

my acer iconia a500 was running skrilax_CZ's bootloader V8, I screwed it up (I think) by trying to install ClockworkRecovery.

I was still able to boot into Tegraowners_JB-MR1_ROM_v11t4

I messed a BUNCH more stuff up. a bunch!

Now, I can still see the internal and external SD but when i try to use blackthund3r's tools to root/recovery/custom-mod

it gets stuck when trying to enter APX mode. "No APX devices detected"

I do have the CPUID and the SBK

Longer explanation and details:

I installed Acer's USB drivers: USB_Acer_1.06.1500_A30H_A

I rooted the device using: ICS_rooting_A10x_A5xx --> runit-win.bat

I used blackthund3r's tools: A500APXFlash.exe and A500Manager.exe

I installed a custom bootloader rom: V8-Thor_1.7.3_recovery.a500apx

I installed Tegraowners_JB-MR1_ROM_v11t4 and gapps-jb-20130301-a500-v2

I was happy as a clam for 2 days playing with my fancy tablet.

I installed Superuser App

I made a nandroid backup at least once from the v8 bootloader.

I made a batch Titanium backup

I then tried installing clockwork recovery mod, and I think that's when i screwed myself.

Suddenly the power on + down_volume switch just led to a screen that said "Skrillax_CZ's bootloader V8"

"Booting recovery kernel image" and then it would hang there forever.

I could still boot into Tegraowners_JB-MR1_ROM_v11t4 so I tried to run a restore from Titanium Backup,

it froze halfway through with the message "superuser access denied"

I rebooted, and suddenly most of the widgets/apps are gone, and the back/home/and application navigation

button that are usually on the bottom left corner are also gone!

then I did a bunch of crazy/desperate stuff with blackthund3r's tools, (something involving trebuchet?)

and I finally blacked out amidst tears and despair around 5 am this morning.

so

now, when I use A500APXFlash.exe and A500Manager.exe it tries to put the tablet into APX mode, and the

tablet goes to a blackscreen, with a white LED on the power button, but I get the error "No APX devices detected"

I also tried inserting a paper clip then turning the power on, same result.

I do have the CPUID and the SBK

Please help if you can, and please dumb down your explanations if possible, this is my first tablet and

i'm totally new to android, etc.

Thanks for your time

-Joel

couple more details, it boots to the point where you swipe to unlock it, but when i do, i get a popup that says Trebuchet has stopped,

and when i click ok, it just comes back infinitum

oh, and when i use A500 Manager.exe it says that it's connected and usb debugging is ON, but I have no way of getting into the settings

to confirm that?

I don't want to come across as lazy, I literally have 8 tabs open from xda-developers and 3 from tegraowners. I also just tried afterotav_109 but that didn't do anything.

I found

the following files in

Computer\Acer Iconia Tab A500\Internal Storage\0\.AcerRecoveryInstaller

(see attached picture)

I'm guessing I can't rename recovery.old to recovery, or something easy like that?
[Acer Iconia A500] j8ner:
small update, installed android SDK and adb shell

when I launch adb shell I can see the various directories on the tablet internal and external SD. I'm in the process of scouring the forums for info about how to use the adb tool to fix my problem, am I even on the right track?

thanks for any feedback y'all can provide

[Acer Iconia A500] dibb_nz:
I'm going to reply to each part of your post, just in case someone else is having the same probs...

TBH installing T/O's rom you should really be asking on their forum - their roms are a little different to the ones on xda - like, you don't need the v8 unlocked bootloader you can run it on HC or ICS Bootloaders.

android adb/usb drivers?? you dont mention them are they on your PC?

Didnt you already have cwm 1.7.3?

How did you try to install it? and yeh this is probably where you went wrong.

You must install custom recoverys using either fastboot or an appropriate flashable zip

For future reference what you should have done here is run the 1.7.3.apx with apxflash tool.

Yes it gets like that sometimes:) dont panic its fixable!

If thats the error it means the drivers are screwed up. Completely uninstall the acer drivers, reboot and reinstall. But w8 theres more....

Make sure you got the adb/fastboot drivers here

Acer recovery installer? OK so I assume you used that to try and flash a recovery? This app works best on HC Bootloader - the only way to use it with ICS is IF you already have the v8.

Also, you must make sure you run the correct recovery for whatever version of ROM you are wanting to flash. So check the OP of your chosen rom for which recovery you need. Most of the ics/jb custom roms here on xda work with cwm 1.7.3, TWRP or public recovery. BUT these wont work on HC

You can use an appropriate recovery.img and flash via fastboot

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

OK so lhow do we get you fixed???

You need to do a complete FORMAT (factory data reset) of your system to get it back to a state where you can use the tools.

Install the adb drivers first!

Lets see if fastboot mode is available.

As long as you see skrilax_cz v8 bootloader on your screen connect yr micro usb cable - power down and boot up holding VOLUME UP button...you should see the fastboot menu now follow the instructions here on using the fastboot commands to WIPE userdata and cache

THEN if you have the correct recovery.img you can flash this too (see that post) if not run the apxflash tool again using cwm 1,7,3.apx file.

Now, once you have run it BOOT DIRECTLY to recovery and flash your rom. (Doesnt matter which one as long as its ICS or JB...)

This is important...if you try and boot yr tabs OS, you'll get either booting primary kernel error or be stuck on the acer logo -

IF fastboot is not available then run the apxflash tool to install recovery instead then using that same post it shows you how to do a full format wipe, with cwm.

I hope this isnt too over the top for you...I've tried to explain things so you can understand a bit better - but I may have to 'dumb' things down a bit more, let me know

good luck with it

[Acer Iconia A500] j8ner:

[Acer Iconia A500] j8ner:
in fastboot, please advise

DIBB IS TEH AWSEOMEMEMEST!!!!!!!

fastoot mode worked!

one thing that threw me off is that I had to figure out that I needed to type

fastboot.exe flash [B]recovery[/B] recovery_thor17_403.img

the guide here

doesn't specify which partition to use so I got an error message until I guesstimated I wanted the boot partition.

Anyway, once you fixed my bootloader, I restored the full system from a backup I had made on the first of the month.

thank you thank you for your awesome help!

now I can break it again and again!

made a minor edit, changed boot --> recovery in the "code" section above
[Acer Iconia A500] dibb_nz:
Glad u got it:)

Not sure why you had to use fastboot.exe as the command tho? but as long as it worked and you're up and running, that's the main thing!

happy flashing

I am considering buying a second hand Nexus 7 for a friend, but seeing as it has the two pin power adapter I assume it is an American tablet. It is a non 3G tablet, 32GB.

As I am in the UK, are there any differences I should be aware of before I consider purchasing this? I don't wan to buy it to find that the software is different, or certain services don't work in the UK or the WiFi is a different frequency.

Any help would be appreciated.
