Hey Friends,

This is a little Tutorial about changing app icons permanently. There was a lot of applications available in Playstore like

“ icon changer free” etc etc to change the app icons. But the problem is that u cant use that changed apps in ur app drawer. U can only use that in ur home screen as a shortcut.

So I just decided to put a little tutorial to do that easily. I know everybody will know this already. But it will help for someone I am sure….

TOOLS NEEDED

..!!

1.Photoshop(Ps)

2.a flashable zip

3.root explorer on your phone

4.7-zip

STEPS-

1) Get some cool icons from my xperia z icons pack - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2287388 and save it to your pc.

Edit: If u need some cool Galaxy S4 icons Download it from Here - http://www.mediafire.com/download/k2522edgik21tp1/GS+4+Icons.zip

2) Whichever app icon you want to mod say the "video player",just copy it's apk from /system/app/<apk_name>.apk

and paste it to sdcard.

3) Now transfer this apk to your pc and extract it using 7-zip.

4) Now look for the app icon the file name maybe in drawable-hdpi and drawable-sw320dp-hdpi under res.."video",or"homescreen_icon" or anything...

5) When you find it just right click on it and click properties under the details tab check it's dimension something like"84X84","42X42","50X48"

6) Alright then you know the app icon dimension now.

7) Now save the image as <app_icon_name>.png on the desktop(make sure the name is proper)

8) Open the apk with 7-zip

9) Now drag and drop this image from the desktop to the folder drawable-hdpi and drawable-sw320-hdpi

and click yes when the prompt appears and close 7-zip

10) Open any flashable zip and don't touch anything except the system folder.

11) Open the system folder and keep only the app folder delete other folders in this app folder copy your "video.apk" and delete other apks if present.

12) Now close the flashable zip and send it to your phone ext _sdcard and flash it by mounting system...and you are done!!

Hit thanks if you got it​

how to change icons of installed apps?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Jeetu:
Same procedure as mentioned above. :)

Copy that apk on pc open it with 7 zip and follow the procedure.:)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] MyLifeRocks10:
Besides drawable-hdpi and drawable-sw320dp-hdpi folders, icons are located in mipmap-hdpi folder in most apps. And they are mostly named as ic_launcher_appname.png, so change this png to change icon of that app.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theshawty:
Sorry for creating a lot of help threads, but things just don't wanna work my way.

Yesterday I wanted to flash a RUU to see exactly how HTC does things and if it's easy or hard. Anyway. I come from a Galaxy S3 and if I wanted to go back to stock from any other rom, I simply flashed a stock rom tar with a program called Odin, but it doesn't seem to be as simple with HTC.

I downloaded a RUU for the Europe region as it seemed the most obvious thing to do, but my CID is Nordic (HTC__Y13). Here's how it went:

Being on a 4.2.2 custom rom:

I tried running the RUU when I was on a 4.2.2. custom rom (InsertCoin 2.0.2), and I fired up the RUU file and followed the instructions. Then it said my phone isn't supported and that I need another RUU file.

Being on a stock odexed 1.29 rom:

I then installed a stock 1.29 rom from Mike1986. and then fired up the RUU. I followed the instructions and it seems the flashing started. It sent me to the RUU mode (the HTC screen) and began the flashing process. It said it wiped the data and that it sent some signature keys, I think. Three minutes later, the RUU window disappeared. I could see the program was still running but the window disappeared. It quickly flashed for about half a second and I could see some text saying that my phone isn't supported, but why the hell did it commence the flashing?

I pulled the cable, long-pressed the power button and let it boot, it hadn't wiped a thing.

Let it be known that before I opened the RUU's, I made sure I was bootloader locked and S-ON (with the revone method).

Is it because I have the Nordic CID and I had a RUU for the European region? If so, I looked anywhere and everywhere for a Nordic RUU but there's none to be found.

Any help is appreciated.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
You can only use an RUU which is the same or newer than the firmware on the phone, e.g. if your last official update was 1.29.401.13 you could only use an RUU that version or above UNLESS you're S-OFF, in which case you can use an older one if you have Super CID and a locked/relocked bootloader
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theshawty:
So what you're saying, is:

If I acquire Super CID, then flash a Europe RUU and then set my CID back to what it originally was (or maybe even set it to HTC__001) and then reflash the RUU, and it'll work beautifully? I'm S-OFF, btw.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobsie41:
Where you S-Off or S-On when you ran the RUU?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theshawty:
S-ON with the bootloader locked. I wanted to see if it was possible.

I'm not really looking to revert to unrooted stock, at least not now. I just want to know that it's possible without too much work for when it would be necessary or when I want to try out unrooted stock again. It's always nice to have a fallback.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobsie41:
As far as I'm aware, you can only run a RUU that is relevant to you device whilst you are s-on and only one that is equal to or above the firmware that you are running.

The only way to return to official un-rooted stock is, again, to run a RUU for your device or install a completely stock nandroid backup of your device or one running the same version as yours.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
OK, full example...

You originally get an unbranded One from the EU and you get the OTA to 1.29.401.13. From this point on, with an S-ON/Locked phone with CID HTC__001 you can ONLY flash an RUU which is 1.29.401.13 or higher. This will never change. If you get an RUU from a specific carrier you cannot flash it as it doesn't match your CID.

If you unlock the bootloader, but stay S-ON, you cannot flash an RUU at all - you HAVE to relock the bootloader first but you can still only flash an RUU matching your CID and is the same or newer than your current version.

If you S-OFF and change the CID to 11111111 you can flash ANY RUU you want, even those older than your current version, e.g. 1.28.401.7. You still have to have a locked/relocked bootloader but you can stay S-OFF and flash the RUU. As the only RUU available at the moment for the unbranded One is 1.28.401.7 it means you can flash that and then get the OTA updates in sequence to get to the latest version

Once back at the older version using the RUU you could change your CID back to HTC__001 if you wanted but I don't think it matters
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theshawty:
Ah, thanks for the clarification! If I do this (Super CID plus flash the RUU), should I change back to the HTC__Y13 cid or change to something like HTC__001 to get the updates for the Europe region? I heard Europe gets OTA's faster than other regions.

One more thing, why does the bootloader have to be locked? Does the RUU check for this?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobsie41:
If you wish to get ota's you will need to have a cid which is relevant to the RUU you have run. Either of those cid's should work for a x.xx.401.x RUU. Not sure about the bootloader locking for an RUU.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theshawty:
The bootloader doesn't need to be locked to flash a RUU. A guy over at Swedroid flashed a Europe RUU (401 device) (after setting Super CID) coming from a carrier-branded One and the RUU did flash perfectly.

I would of course want OTA's, but the thing is, I heard Europe gets them faster than the Nordic region.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobsie41:
Not necessarily. As with the s3, releases seem pretty random from country to country in Europe. I had the one x with HTC__001 cid and was one of the last to be updated.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theshawty:
Locked the bootloader and went into fastboot and started the RUU. It is now flashing :victory:

After it's done, I will turn the CID back to HTC__Y13 and reflash the RUU.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
I, personally, would relock the bootloader purely to cover yourself. As for CID, it's up to you. Using HTC__001 might not get it the second an OTA comes out but I'm sure you're patient enough to wait a few days ;)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theshawty:
I just want back to stock for a few days. I'm a bit tired of custom roming yet I can't stay away from it!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
I've done the same with my Nexus 4, and shall do the same with my One when I get it next month. I want S-OFF purely because the only RUU we have is an older than what I'll likely get on my phone. This way I can always go back to stock (unless a newer RUU leaks that is!)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theshawty:
How awfully peculiar, though. After I flashed to stock (the 1.28 something RUU), I got an update to 1.29.401.12. My brother, whom also have a One in the same region as I, has the 1.29.401.16 update (I am four decimals behind him :p).

I thought I would get an update to .16, or am I just being too impatient? :p

I know I had .16 before custom roms though.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erto90:
I read all, very useful conversation,saved me lot of time

Only a thing i havent understand

Im now S-OFF,unlocked with superCID ( runnind a branded italian rom with (now old)TIM__041(if i rememeber right)cid)

What i need to do to have a stock unbranded european RUU

Do i need to relock bootloader Before flashing or not matters?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
.16 was for the M7_U handsets, M7_UL is on .12 ;)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theshawty:
But my little brother and I both have UL devices, and his clearly says UL in the about screens.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
Hmmm, perhaps it is down to CID then...I don't know anyone in the UK with anything over .12

Hey guys,

I've noticed that on Task 06/07 (with task's gapps and task's kernel, no modifications to ANYTHING) (and stock TW as well for what it's worth), the front-facing camera seems to be laggy and not very good quality. I have noticed however, that on the 06/08 CM nightly(with 03/01 gapps and CM kernel, again, no modifications or changes to ANYTHING), that the front-facing camera works AWESOME. Just wondering if there were some commits or something pushed to CM that weren't picked up in Task's ROM. I can't imagine what would cause the camera to be BETTER on an AOSP ROM rather than a TW ROM anyway.

I did some searching and nothing found to "camera" was relative to this. Is anyone else experiencing this and/or know what the cause of this is? I MUCH prefer to use Task's ROM over anything else but I use the camera multiple times a day, every day.

ROMs with slow/laggy front-facing camera:

Task 06/07

MintJB (Nottach's ROM)

Stock AT&T firmware

ROMs with good front camera

CM 06/08 nightly

I'm having the same problem!!

Hi,

I'm having the same problem!

I've flashed the XXALJ4 rom version and the phone didn't restart completely, freezing with samsung logo!

Since this is my 1st time flashing I've got scared :(, and had to remove the battery to be able to go into "downloading mode"!

After that I've tried again the same rom, unsuccessfully! So looked on sammobile for a different rom, and at least got the phone working again, although this isn't the XXALJ4 rom!:D

So have tried over and over again (also w/ a different PC), and with no success flashing the XXALJ4 rom!

With this trials what I've found different is that, when I star the process with Odin flashing XXALJ4 rom, it freezes (shows "not responding" message) for some seconds, but after that the process seems OK, but at the end of it the phone doesn't work!!!

I really want to flash the KyleOPEN ROM, but without solving this problem, I can't go forward with it!!!:crying::crying::(:(

Here is my problem:

I am porting MIUI V4 from Jiayu G2 to Alcatel OT992D. They have the same hardware and screen resolution so I thought it won't be a problem.

However it won't boot. If i use stock libandroid_runtime.so it gets stuck in bootloop, and if I use the one from the port rom, it gets stuck on splashscreen before boot animation. I can't get a logcat because adb says waiting for device. If any of you have an idea what could be the problem, tell me, because i am trying to port it for a few days, i have tried changing base rom and even port rom but its always the same :(

Also i have tried porting manually and using rom porter.

Try PatchRom from Miui. The guides can be found here http://en.miui.com/forum-12-1.html Use Ubuntu 10.x and you might have better luck. Patchrom will take Cyanogenmod for your device, insert MiCode (MIUI code) and where it fails you'll have to resolve the rejects. Then build the zip and things should work.

Yes, I confirm that sound works in CM 10.1, too.

I have been building CM10.1 from source (the HP Touchpad specific code is obtained from milaq's repository).

I guess that the reason some ROMs do not have sound working may be a duct-tape workaround in getting rid of one compilation error regarding the audio module - the line of code located on line #1279 of device/hp/tenderloin/audio_hw.c:

adev->hw_device.common.version = AUDIO_DEVICE_API_VERSION_2_0

I ran into the issue today and mistakenly replaced the right hand side of the assignment to zero. (This workaround was intended for use with an older version of the code)

Keeping it as it is makes sound work!:laugh:

For those of you that use the AOSP MMS on Roms you may want to try this trick.

So as it's known if you accidentally tap a person's picture in AOSP messaging it causes the app to force close. Well if you install NinjaSMS, turn it on, then off, and tap the person's picture the little contact card of the person pops up. No more force closes. I hope that helps someone.

I think it should be no problem if they have higher impedance, lower impedance than minimum will probably be really bad for phone but as they have higher...

Thank you for your reply.

Well, the thing worried me was this sentence I read on wiki.

I don't know if it's the same with mobiles or not.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Masrepus:
Well, i think it COULD happen that the battery drains faster: because if the impedance is high, you need more power to get an electric current that is high enough for the headphones to work. But as they must have been tested in order to be sold, there shouldnt be any problem :)
