M$ Letter

Guys,

I'm quite new here but let me just give my two cents regarding the Supposed letter from M$.

You have to understand 3 things important to M$ right now.

1. They know they have a great product on their hands right now.

2. They still do not have the volume to sell that would make MW OS Series as profitable as they want it to.

3. They are tied up with their hardware partners.

Having these 3 things in mind, M$ will not shut down or jail anyone of us(yes including me because I've been using WM2003SE on my XDA2 since late last week) as of this time. Big and influencial as M$ is, it still needs us because we are the ones creating the hype (1) and influencing other people to shift to using MW enabled phones (2). By having an active forum such as this forum, we are helping them in at least 2 facets of their business such as Technical Service that they cannot legally attend to because of their agreements with their hardware partners (3) and most importantly, you guys do the R&D that M$ people might have overlooked.

Remember, we are only a small faction of MW enabled PPC users in the world. However, as small as we are, we are the most active part of the market. What we do here is far more valuable to M$ right now because the forum constantly develop ways and means to make WM a better product. Furthermore, the forum also pushes the limits of both OS and hardware. Thus, opening more ideas and opportunities for M$ and its hardware partners to user and exploit.

I dare say that for all we know, one of us is either an M$ informant or related to one.

After everything's said and done, we have to remember 1 thing. No matter who wrote the letter or whoever threatens the forum, we have to continue on in renovating ways and means to tweak and improve WM OSes and push them to its limits. This way, M$ would learn more of what they can offer us in the future and continue on innovating and renovating what they currently have.

This forum doesn't distribute WM OSes indiscriminately like what other people may perceive but rather, we distribute the OS to people who love these products and would go to great lengths just to be able to obtain them for testing or personal use. In essence, most if not all of use here are beta users. Although we do not directly send M$ our findings and experiences with its product, M$ can look through the forum and learn a lot about how its product function in the most varied conditions.

Anyway, I've said too much already. Great work guys!

Thanks!

hi,

By mistake I flash a i9500 recovery on a 9505 and it installed (see picture) and erased my EFS.

I flash a stock with spit, then replaced the EFS (which I had saved on the PC), but each reboot EFS disappears! and the image returns.

you must be rooted, type the following commands in terminal emulator:

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samersh72:
rm >> will remove old "keystr" file (if existed, responsible of power menu and lockscreen) and old "factorymode" (responsible of this yellow window)

echo >> will make new two mentioned files with a "on" in it

chown >> will change file owner and group information of these two files to the right one.

chmod 744 >> will set the right permission for the two files rwxr--r--

reboot :good:

you can also use "adb shell" to execute those commands.

Sorry but the command does not pass error file read-only '

I do not understand why if I replace the EFS it fades to reboot?

For those who want to have Samsung Bloatware on Custom ROMs, I uploaded these on my Dropbox account. ;)

ODEXED APPS (XXLI1 firmware)

ODEXED FRAMEWORK (XXMD1 firmware)

ODEXED APPS (XXLD3 firmware) Thanks to bittertruth277

These Apps are odexed. This means you will need to download the .odex file which has the same name as the app too (Odexed apps give you better Performance, Faster boot and more battery life but they are very difficult to modify).

DEODEXED APPS + Superuser.apk (XXMC1 firmware)

These apps are deodexed. This means you only need to download the .apk (Deodexed apps have the opposite properties of Odexed apps).

How to install an app as System app

1. Goto /system/app

2. Place the .apk (and the .odex) there

3. Now set both the permission rw-r-r

4. Now reboot and you're done

You beat me to it! Where were you when I needed you?

Hello All. This is my first post so please forgive any lapses in protocol. I am a complete noob. To tell you the truth, I am still reeling from watching that sign up video. Man that is VERY INTIMIDATING.

Anyway, I only signed up to firstly thank all the people who contribute to this wonderful site (I have referenced it many times over the last few months and learnt 'alot' as a result) and secondly to try and give something back to the community. Specifically, I was going to ask permission to upload stock apk's for the Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830i with Gingerbread 2.3.6 (especially the browser which I know are difficult to find). However, the OP definitely beat me to it.

It's quite funny but I wish I had found this post a few days ago when I was looking for the stock browser apk files for my own phone. I was a bit careless with titanium backup and ended up deleting alot of bloatware and the browser. I kept getting through to the 2.3.4 thread and can confirm they didn't work with the 2.3.6 version.

I have noticed that you reference XXLD1 build. Mine shows as XXLD2 so I don't know if that means my files will be different or the same.

FYI, I am in the UK and on the TESCO MOBILE network. I think it shares it's infrastructure with O2. If any body does need files please say and I will try to upload them (I have to learn how to, first).

Here is the link to the 2.3.4 thread:

[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] mathm2013:
You all see? That's what i call a newbie, and not a noob. You are not a noob. A noob asks tons of times questions that were already answered. Welcome to Xda, i say. I hope you contribute a lot for this forum, as well as i hope you find this forum useful. For uploading your files, try Dropbox or Mediafire (i think Dropbox is easier to use). Files from other stock are LIKELY not to work on your stock, as well as they may work, though. And if it doesn't works, why don't you upload your apk's? They might be useful to another user. Again, welcome to XDA.

Ps.: my reaction to that video was the same.

Or are any of these compatable? i accidentally deleted some of the stock apps, and now i can't update via Play store. I also get a lot of errors that some proccesses can't start or crashed. I tried factory reset, but i guess once the stock stuff is deleted.. it's deleted for good.

Once you flash a kernel, you will lose root. You need to re-root the device again after flashing flar2's kernel.

I saw the note about that in Flar2's thread, so I reflashed SuperSU 1.5.1 immediately after flashing the kernel, it still wouldn't work.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Obveron:
Hi all, I've been scowering the depths of Android music players trying to find an app that will simply let me browse SMB shares, sort according to ID3 track number tags, and play/queue music files.

The only app I could find that could come close is Xenoamp Beta, but it's buggy and often crashes when I point it at SMB shares with thousands of songs.

Otherwise I've come up with nothing.

Popular Music Players like Power Amp and Rocket Player etc, won't allow me to add SMB folders to their libraries.

I've heard of solutions to mount smb shares into the "sd card", but such actions require root, which I don't want to do.

Popular Media Players like BSPlayer can browse SMB shares perfectly, but it won't parse ID3 tags and allow me to play according to track number.

Excellent File Managers like ESmanager will browse SMB shares with ease, but also won't recognize track number tags.

Is there an app out there that will work? I figured this would be a common requested feature, but I can't find much discussion on the topic.

the reason i want to change is coz i cant access few apps like "root explorer" and "ad away" coz when open them they say "Either su binary could not be found or you did not allow the root permission for adaway" but i have already granted the permissions... this is happening in these 2 apps so far while other apps like greenify and other are working fine.

the thing is that there no option either to update the SU binary in superSU app which is installed in my custom rom "SUPER JB"

I think I found out why its happening in these 2 apps... Coz I installed them manually frm file explorer using their Apk file n not from play store... But I still dont understand tht

Y is it happening.. I mean bfre also they used to work... Maybe is it the new custom Rom I flashed.. superJB?
