[LG Optimus G (International)] Jishnu Sur™:
Easy.. first draw out the res folder from the systemUI.apk. then rename the go to drawable Xhdpi and you will find the 5 bar signal png's. JUST rename the 5 bar signals to the the one's of 4.. put back the res folder and replace the original res folder..

[General Questions and Answers] sisilk:
Hi,

I recently purchased a generic brand Android phone. General specs are; Android 4.1.1, Dual Core 1GHz, RAM 256MB.

I'm brand new to the smartphone thing, and Android 4.1.1 on a generic device isn't helping my experience. Lots of 3rd party apps have been factory installed on it to the point of choking the RAM and making it nearly impossible to run more than 1-2 apps simultaneously.

I need to root this phone, like, badly.

I searched XDA Forums diligently and tried several suggestions, but nothing worked. I searched plenty of other forums too, but haven't received any kind of satisfactory solution.

The saddest thing is, this phone doesn't seem to have a Recovery option. I've pressed and held the Vol - and Power buttons together, nothing. I've pressed both Volume + and - and the Power buttons together, nothing. I've pressed all 3 buttons plus the Menu button, nothing. I even tried begging it. Nothing.

This phone doesn't have any USB drivers, so that I can use an Android SDK and the SuperUser app to root it.

I'm crazed beyond the point of recovery, because I seem to have purchased an Android that can't do anything it's meant to do.

This is the device description on the company's website;

gphonebd.com/index.php?action=product_details&no=114

Some internal hardware and software details;

Phone Name: G'phone

Model Number: D16-Eye

Android Version: 4.1.1

Baseband Version: MTK6517 (Dual Core)

Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7 xh@xh #3

Software Version: G'phone-D16-Eye_D8_V1.2-20130424

Hardware Version: 1.1.0

Please help in finding a solution, anybody! :crying:

Thanks in advance, to whoever responds.....

Have you tried framaroot? I honestly don't think it'll work, but it's worth a shot.

Worse case, it'll tell you none of the exploits work, so you'll have to uninstall.
[General Questions and Answers] sisilk:
Thanks for your reply. Since posting my original thread, my phone has now gone on the blink. I connected my phone to my laptop via USB to transfer some photos and BANG! The screen goes white and shuts down. I tried rebooting, but the OS isn't loading anymore. I tried Recovery Mode, but it seems there isn't any recovery software installed in this thing.

I'm desperately searching for a solution to this, now...... :eek:
[General Questions and Answers] zelendel:
YOu are gonna be hard pressed to find anything, and to be honest your gonna have trouble no matter what you do. Your device doesnt even meet the min requirments to run android. So it will lag and be barely usable.
[General Questions and Answers] sisilk:
Yeah, I know. But believe me, I've seen phones with much lower specs, RAM, Clock speed and so forth, comfortably run Android 2.3.6 (Gingerbread). I guess the manufacturers of this phone shouldn't have put Jelly Bean on a device with these specs. I tried searching on the Forums here if there were minimum hardware requirements to run Jelly Bean, but haven't found anything informative enough.

Can you tell me, if you know, the minimum hardware requirements to run Jelly Bean 4.1.1? It would be a big help and guide for me, because I plan to replace the phone I currently own. I'll have to get it replaced from the dealers first (it's still under the device warranty) and once that's done, I'll put it up for sale. Then, I'll probably hunt around for a better phone. That's why it'd be a big help if you could give me a guide on minimum hardware requirements to run Jelly Bean.

Also, if it's not much trouble, could you tell me which would be better to run, Android 4.1.1 or Windows Phone 8? I mean, if you consider everything, such as prices, device range, apps, usability and durability.

Thanks so much for responding to my questions!
[General Questions and Answers] zelendel:
For the most part it is ok but if you search google for the requirments you will see that anything above GB needs a min of 512 mb of ram and then it still lags all over the place.

I am a developer at heart so Android is my choice but with all things considered I would look at windows phone. It is a good set of devices and is very easy to use.

[General Questions and Answers] sisilk:
Thanks so much for the reply! I guess for a smartphone noob like me, I'm probably much better off using Windows Phone. Android is way too complicated for me, I guess....

One final question, please. D'you think I should go for a Lumia device or one of those HTC's running Windows Phone 8? Is there one or two that you can recommend? Thanks again!
[General Questions and Answers] zelendel:
I heard the Lumia is a good device but IF i was to get a WP I would get an HTC as they have proven themselves to me over the years. I really cant say which one is better as I have never looked at a WP device.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Rirere:
Hey guys,

I've been having issues with an AOSP-based 4.2.x ROM, and I'd like to revert back to a Sense-based 4.1 ROM. I do have a nandroid backup on hand, and I was wondering if I could safely revert to it after the partitioning changes made by the 4.2 flash. Anything I need to watch out for? (I know I need to move the backup for TWRP to see it again, obviously).

I don't care about data overmuch, so if I can just flash a 4.1.x based ROM then that'll work fine as well.

I've heard that restoring nandroid, then flashing the ROM will work (or maybe it was the other way around?). Either way, any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks!

Well, i installed merruk 2.5 kernel some weeks ago, and them started trying overlock. The problem is the CPU frequency is set only after the reboot and sometime after that it goes back to 832 mhz, i can't manage to keep it on 1248. So i was wondering if its possible to delete the other frequencies, make 1248 the only choice. I have seen some people talking about a file that have the frequencies, etc, the idea is edit that file and flash it, so 1248 will be my only frequency. But as i'm a noob, i need instructions =D

I got a bolt recently for parts, and it turned out being in better condition than my current one.

Only downside to the new one is that the USB port will only charge and not recognize being plugged into PC.

I've seen an app that allows wireless adb w/o root, but it requires you to be plugged in to initiate it...

Just wanted to see if there was any hope for getting root on the thing...
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] santod040:
You may just need a different cable, or to use a different USB port on the PC.

May even wanna try a friends/family members PC if yours doesn't have at least one powered USB 2.0 port.

Most likely it's the cable, the port, or lack of drivers on the pc.

If the port gets power to charge, then the port should be fine.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobz1993:
The phone does work great for the most part, but the water damage stickers are bad. I popped it open and the insides look alright, but considering the sticker on the inside is bad too, there may be a chance it messed with one of the pins or something on the micro USB port. It is too small and covered for me to be able to tell if part of it is actually bad. Computer notices something was plugged in (listed as unknown).

As I mentioned, it was listed as a parts phone (claimed to not turn on), but figured I could pull the screen assembly if i cracked another one..

Same result using multiple computers/wires, leaving it to the phone.

I have rooted many of these before using the old adb methods and revolutionary, generally using your ROMs, mainly because they're made with quality and you're one of the only developers this phone has left.

I've been trying to work around the need for the USB cable, but using adb provides the permissions needed to get the files over to the data folder.. I do have ssh access to the phone, but the commands are very limited (no dev mode).

I rooted my Nook (1.2.0) with NookManager and played a bit, but dont think it is worth it for me. So I tried to restore the back-up I had, but it was corrupted, and could not restore...

I suppose this is the 1.2.1 update, but since the device is rooted, the update fails.
