Not sure whether they've been deleted or not, unless you have been reposting. They are under BlueAngel_Roms instead of Extended_Roms. Things seem to keep getting moved.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] HDuser:
And what are they doing there ?

Sure I have been uploading to ExtenedRoms for over an hour now.

I will move the buggers!

Rename The Folder Exteneded_Roms

Clean up the file names

Gee I love house work thought I was would be cooking in the Rom Kitchen, but no.

We are going to have to post the links as they got killed once before.

Thought you were out.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] HDuser:
Can you belive this!

Got a folder name that says "Dont touch MDAIIIUser Uploading" and we have dowloades.

You around need so help.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] HDuser:
ok done

cleaned up the Exteneded_Roms

Will post in the morning.

We need to take these apart and find what version they are then rename them.

Do you need some assistance with the Excel sheet for ROM Versions and contained cab files?

Is there a neater way of structuring the ftp server directories? Is there any way of setting folder permissions on the server for read/write only and not alter/delete?

Do I need help in the Exteneded Rom Kitchen. Does the .... (ok no bad jokes)

Sure do BIG Time!!! Its not my kitchen, I just work there!

The Idea of the Kitchen is not realy to find out what version number Orange Rom A has for an application but to see if Orange's Rom A has application / Patches that are better than our base.

The Sheet just is a list of the files which go:

Base (I-mate) + Rom A + Rom B = Extended Rom Kitchen (ERK) Rom

My end goal is to generate a ERK Rom Version which is as upto date as possible.

And have this info on wiki so we dont need to hunt for it.

How far am I, Well The UK orange rom has been looked at but info not posted in the kitchen.

( I think RTP worked on that but I am not sure as I was haveing PMs with few people about that rom. )

We have the 3 roms above that need to be looked and info posted in the Kitchen and added to the Excel Sheet.

The Excel Sheet needs to be made to look nice so the rest of us can undersatand it.

We need to check against the "List of know Blue angels" to see what rom is missing and see if we can find it.

Oh yes and its friday, I get to pick my kids as its "The 3rd weekend of every month" and as my ex-wife has got a date, thus By 12:00.

Chances of me doing much till monday are ZERO.

So you want a job, pay is s**t, hours are bad, it can get hot in the kitchen when there is a fire and you lose all your stuff.

You need to understand Roms, read cab files, use your brain and most of all admit to the fact that you don't know everything and thus ask.

I am looking for Pastry Chef as well. One that can write applications.

Given that at the moment we are all the user XDA, I would say no.

What we need is a "BA_Admin" that revokes the rights of XDA to Read only, then we just get into the next problem, the person that posted (XDA) can't update it, so he needs to be BA_Admin...

The FTP site is a public place and like Toilets some people just can't pee in the Pot like the rest of us and sonebody has to clean up the mess.

Got some ideas, then share them with us.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Bebbo:
Will have a look at dir structure but seems reasonable to me at the moment (Though Extended is the correct spelling :D ). Will use my WinCE CAB Manager to see what if anything is different on rom's you haven't had chance to view yet and generally assist where I can.

I will have a look at the orange rom as well, time permitting.

Would it be better to extract the .nbf files to sub dirs under the Extended_ROMS dir and have similar structure for radio and CE ROM?

ie ->

BlueAngel/Extended_Roms/Imate_PDA2k_WWE_12200_162_10600_SHIP/ms_.nbf

(With cabs extracted as well under a cabs sub dir?)

BlueAngel/CE_Roms/Imate_PDA2k_WWE_12200_162_10600_SHIP/nk.nbf

BlueAngel/Radio_Roms/Imate_PDA2k_WWE_12200_162_10600_SHIP/radio_.nbf

Or leave as is and use the kitchen with a CAB's dir under it with all known versions of cab files so we can select the most appropriate ones?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] RTP:
I've posted the document on the Orange 1.12.139 ROM into the Kitchen. It's fairly large since there is so much in the Orange ROM.

Here's a link:

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Bebbo:
Unfortunately nothing really new though (Wish I had known you were doing this rom - just wasted 2 hours!).

I haven't looked at the WModem.exe update yet - any ideas what this is for?

Who keeps moving files in the BlueAngel section of the FTP server? Makes life difficult having to keep searching each time. Please let us all know what you are trying to achieve as it keeps breaking links on other web pages!
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] RTP:
Running it comes up with this text:

It then gives options for Serial, IrDA, USB and Bluetooth. Start, Stop and View Log buttons. Plus connection status LEDs - Connection, Send Data and Receive Data.

I've never tried it. I tend to use something more direct for dialup from my laptop.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] xdadom:
OK guys!!!

I don't know what your naming system is but I've uploaded the O2 UK EXT ROM and I've called it "O2_UK_XDAIIs_Ext_ROM_112178_WWE.zip". This one is the original from my device.

Ext_ROM password??

Any known pw's for those .nbf files? I tried Rom editor but couldn't recognize the pw's :(
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Bebbo:
Re: Ext_ROM password??

They aren't .nbf files???????? They are zipped up (rar'd up) cab files extracted from the extended roms.

+*+*+*+ FOR INFO +*+*+*+

The xda3nbftool has an extra command line option of -t which attempts to discover the xor key used to encrypt the .nbf files. This seems to work well for all files except the radio_.nbf file which causes it problems. Try it on roms that you are having problems with to see if it is the correct key. You can check the resulting .nba file with a hex editor to ensure the PH20B and other data is shown at the beginning of the .nba file.

+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+

I have pulled the above ext roms apart and the version numbers are as follows:

IIs Asia WWE Ext ROM.zip = Version "1.12.925 WWE"

Seimens_SX66_Ext_ROM_ENG.zip = Version "1.20.115 WWE"

T-Mobile_MDAIII_Extended_Rom_Inc_DeviceInfo.zip = Version "1.06.117 WWE"

Files renamed appropriately so any links will now be broken (plus the fact that some kindly person has renamed the Extended ROM directory to its correct spelling!)

Hey guys i am back from my holiday!!!!! so here is some help for you which i learned on the way!!

Hey guys i have a funbook p300 and it fell on the road (got a crack on the screnn and the power button broken!!!!) i tried the button remap app but it didn't work ( i tried many other apps including the auto screen on, fix power button and many more...)

The only thing which worked was the app called AWESOME ON OFF

you can get it from playstore- it will help-

You just have to pickup your phone and- voila your phone/tab is on...

good app- will tell you if i find more- (it has both versions- paid and free

:good:;):cowboy::)
[General Questions and Answers] droiddddd:
I've been using this app for the broken power button on my Droid RAZR and to lock the screen I use LMT launcher's double swipe down gesture with key = 26(power button). I find the awesome off option a bit of a hassle.

This app causes wakelocks however.
[General Questions and Answers] Jordanh8:
This is awesome, thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] sralli:
So hey guys i found a new app named Gravity Screen. you can download it from playstore. it has a special feature in which when you move your phone to a special angle it will switch off and when moved to a certain angle it will switch on. so those of you out there whose powerbutton is broken and don't have a proximity sensor, this will help you
[General Questions and Answers] doma8108:
Yes, its a great app.. I use too due broken power button
[General Questions and Answers] :
You can also use the command "adb shell input keyevent 26" to turn the screen on/off.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] frediesta:
Hi all,

I'd like to replace the internal memory with a huge one, as big as possible.

For example instead of having a 16GB or 32GB S4, to walk around with a 1TB version. How cool would that be :cowboy:

Is there any way the chip can be soldered off and replaced by a new one?

I'm prepared to brick my phone, I just wanna try it.

I can't seem to figure out the model number / manufacturer's SKU of the memory chip.

Any and all thoughts are welcome :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] blwnv8:
I don't think it would be possible. The phone is probably setup to recognize the 16 or 32gb in the software. I'm sure that could be changed though. It would be a pain in the butt I'm sure to desolder the old one and put the new one in. Small components and very delicate. Can't use to much heat. It would be worth the trouble if it works. Would be very interesting to see if you could make it work if you find a chip.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] najaboy:
There are quite a few reasons why this would not work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] papstar:
And those reasons are...?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Legacystar:
You wouldn't be able to solder the chip as its surface mounted .
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] oneandroidnut:
Wow thread fail. Close thread

For starters already started solder and the software implementation of that kind of storage would be difficult to do as well. So if you can solder as good as Samsung motherboard makers and right better code then Samsung and find 1 tb micro sdcard size to fit in the board then I say go for it!!

But really wow lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pedrohz:
As someone said, it is surface mounted, you won't be able to do that. Even removing the old memory without screwing up the board will be extremely hard.

And... 1tb? Are you serious? The maximum capacity for single chip NANDs doesn't come not even close to that.

Get yourself a 64gb micro SD, it's the only way.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] berfles:
The fact that you even think you could have a 1TB phone leads me to believe you have no clue how to solder something effectively.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] BusyPooping:
lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jpmcnown:
I just wanted to bump this to the top of the list again, because I think it's of such great importance. We need to find a solution to this. Forget that online storage.:D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] najaboy:
The sheer complexity of micro soldering. The physical size of the NAND that the op has wishfully postulated. The interoperability of specific NAND with the mainboard. The fact that the new NAND would have to have information written to it before it would even be bootable.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brizey:
Why stop at a TB? I want an yottabyte phone...my phone will BE the cloud. You all can just store your **** on it for cheap.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] IamPro:
Why stop there? I want a DeLorean that travels through time :laugh:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] vacaloca:
I have access to techs at a friend's company that could do SMT work, but I'm not about to sacrifice my phone ;) Some said there is a software check, where would that be?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] 0reo:
Just the practical aspect of de/re soldering a surface mount chip...

I'm a jedi master with a fine tip soldering iron and I wouldn't try this unless it was my only hope to get off a desert island or something.

My father, who I learned from, and made a good career of fine electronics repair before whole-board replacement became cheaper then component replacement, even he didn't do this, not even to replace a $5 chip with the same chip on $50,000 boards. I do remember him pulling it off exactly once tinkering with a VCR back when they were new technology. But chips were different then and had much larger pins. Surface mount chips today don't even have pins. They have contacts that are sort of glued with a conductive cement; can't be removed, period.

Best of luck to ya but understand this is a fools errand.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mutelight:
I bricked my phone in attempt to get 1TB, YOLO!

(pro tip, the HDD barely fit)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lSUPERFLYl:
I don't know what's worse...the fact that you think this is possible or the fact that you're prepared to break something that probably cost you around $650 for fun.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pblmndzn:
Hi, my GS3 just died. Apparently the motherboard is broken. I really need to recover the pictures in my internal memory card. They should have been uploaded automatically to Dropbox but somehow they did not. I just had a baby and would be really sad to lose all the pictures I took over the last months.

I know this isn't exaclty the appropiate thread, but as you're talking about removing the internal memory chip, I wonder if that could be done so I could read the memory once it's not on the broken board anymore

Thanks in advance. Please don't be rude if this sounds idiotic to you, I'm just not an expert
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bclaas:
Same problem

I've got exactly the same problem. Only its my wedding and honeymoon pictures. The phone broke during honeymoon :(

Anyone know if this is posible?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cko0003:
It can be done this thread just has too many novice. You will have to be the bet at every move and you can rewrite the code. Now the rest is up to you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] treysis:
I think the only real problem is for the software to recognize the size. Since you cannot change the partition layout without signing the partition table with the correct signature from Samsung, I don't see how this is possible. On the other hand: there are e.g. 16 and 32 GB version of S4, yet firmware ist the same for both.

It has been successfully done on iPhone 7 (upgrade to 512 GB). Of course, 1 TB chips are not readily available, so would have to go with smaller size. But 128 or 256 GB would already be nice.

Damn wish wifi calling os still there.. its so helpful
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] j_smith305:
Flashed this earlier today and it's been running pretty smoothly :good: Wifi calling would be awesome. I get terrible reception at work. Is there any way we can manually add it back? I'd be willing to give it a shot
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Kamau54:
Flashed last night, and it's running pretty smoothly.

One thing though is I cannot get pattern lock to start.

Edit: I did get it going with a reboot.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] enewman17:
Anyone can do whatever they like with this ROM. I just figured that with the features loserskater and I implemented, thought you enjoy it.

With that said it shouldn't be much of an issue for a dev here to pretty much copy the features we added. Getting the WiFi calling back will involve putting the toggle back in the SecSettings.apk use the original IPServices.apk this one is hacked. Replace the missing ims-service.apk and ip-provider.apk Replace the phone.apk . Replacing the phone.apk will get rid of call recording. You won't be able to get call recording back using the T-Mobile phone.apk. There might have been more WiFi calling stuff removed in the android.policy.jar as well but I don't remember.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Kamau54:
I've never understood the WiFi calling issue. I personally use Talkatone, and haven't missed a beat.

As for the features I look for to make or break a rom for me, this rom is tight. Phone, camera/pictures and music are all working great so far. I'm gonna be trying some different kernels later to see if I can tweak the battery life (it's all right now, but I'm always looking for improvements), and maybe another theme, though the dark green one I chose in Aroma is nice itself.

All in all, so far this rom has gotten off to a strong start. Nice job, and two thumbs up.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] EtherealRemnant:
Is the call recording feature mic-based or is it true intercepted recording? I thought the MSM89xx series couldn't do intercepted recording (and mic recordings always came out horrible) so if you have true recording working, I'm jumping on this ROM just for that feature let alone all the other nice features it has!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] enewman17:
The call record uses the same method that worked in ICS by wanam. And the recordings are saved in the sdcard/sounds in .amr format.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Kamau54:
Wait. There's a call recorder in here? I've looked in the app drawer and don't see one.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] EtherealRemnant:
Sounds like call interception. Kick ass, downloading now!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] enewman17:
It's one of the AROMA options. It's in the phone.apk. When you make a call there will be a record button instead of add call.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] enewman17:
Mind you it's still not a high quality recording.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] EtherealRemnant:
AMR never is but its better than a microphone recording. I have missed being able to record calls on my Captivate and Inspire... It really comes in handy when dealing with customer service (especially wireless and cable companies).

EDIT: Wait, I thought the wanam hack was for Exynos and didn't work for Snapdragon?

---------- Post added at 11:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:01 AM ----------

Crap... just noticed this doesn't have the 5x6 TW launcher. Means I'll have to set up my icons all over again lol.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Kamau54:
I'm having a small issue with the patter lock. At first, it wouldn't take until I did a reboot. But now, plugging in the headphones deactivates it. I can reactivate it by doing another reboot, but it deactivates when I plug the headphones in again. Don't know if this an across the board issue.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] enewman17:
Ok, I'll look into that. I know that plugging in the headphones unlocks the device with just the swipe lock, this was a stock feature. Maybe the quick unlock with pin or password broke something.

Edit: I can not replicate the error with any combination, pin, pattern, password, tw lock screen, AOSP lock screen. When I plug my headphones in takes me to the pattern unlock and does not unlock my phone. All lock screens are working for me as soon as I change them. I'm not sure what would cause that.

Anyone know of any good Icon Packs for TW and easy way to apply them? I am so used to CM 10.1 it's taking some time to adjust.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] TheLastSidekick:
Is the kernel locked at minimum 1136 by default? I underclocked it to the minimum on stock kernel and it's still working perfectly the only difference is that my battery has improved. This ROM is incredible. I'd love to pick enewmans mind about it sometime.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] enewman17:
No it's not locked I'm not sure what is going on with it.... Seems apps that control clock speeds just aren't reading it correctly. You'll probably notice if you refresh the app the clock speeds will jump around.

You and tons of others want to pick my brain all the time. LOL
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] TheLastSidekick:
Well no offense to other developers here... But this is running stock kernel and is better than most AOSP ROMs it honestly puzzles me very much. Congrats good sir!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] edboy21:

The easiest way to apply icon packs is using the Xposed mod. Check the thread in my sig for the download. That can install nearly any icon pack in the play store.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] toobz:
Great rom! Thanks Op. Couple of questions though.

1. How do I change the clock to the 12 format rather than the 24 hour format?

2. Is there any way to customize the Aosp lockscreen shortcuts?

Thanks again, great rom!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] enewman17:
1. In the date and time settings

2. nope, sorry.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tony6083:
Thank you for the great TW Rom. I actually like it again. I have been on AOKP for three months and then before that MIUI. I thought AOKP was cool because of all the customization. It also ran very smooth. With this Rom, the smoothness is there with the convenience of all apps in multi window as well as AOSP messaging. The best of both worlds for me. :D. I really appreciate all the people and the work that went into this. XDA has awesome developers. What a great community.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] enewman17:
Thanks!

Yes it's normal. Thing is I can't close the gap for one icon. Everything is in a linear layout for how the icons are displayed. Even though there is no battery image there, there is still a placeholder for that space. Sorry but I can't close the gap. We tried. :crying:
