Hello [MENTION=655433]LordManhattan[/MENTION] found your thread. Is there a way through titanium to work out what each apk you listed actually does/associated with app? Thanks
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
If you're not sure what to delete, i recommend you to stick to Titanium or an app like this.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] nathlynn22:
Of I will do just before I deleted something would want to no what the actual system app does
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
Fine, i'll add some descriptions to the list.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] nathlynn22:
Lol Ive never used titanium backup before I'm just asking about if when you view the apps you can backup and restore and delete can you view the app details not asking you to write a massive list lol
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
No, it doesn't always say what's what. But it's too late now. Check the first post :p

This is my recovery, for ZTE V967S.

DISCLAIMER:

Rooting your phone and using custom Recoveries and ROMS have risks and may result in bricking your device, and has nothing to do with Google or the device manufacturers. In case of any mishap I am not responsible if you brick/ruin your phone in any way.

Basic computer skills are required and minimal knowledges about phones and phones utilities too.

Make sure that whatever you do, you are doing it at your own responsibility.

The touch module is inspired mostly by scanno touch recovery for Advent Vega and cleaned up and modernized with some stuff from Cannibal Open Touch Recovery. The full touch module is developed by Napstar from UtterChaos Team - Napstar touch recovery, adapted, modified and improved in some parts by me.
​

A big THANKS to Napstar for his full touch source. ​

FEATURES

To be able to use Aroma File Manager, for which you can find an entry under Carliv menu in recovery, you need to go to amarullz thread and download the version 1.80 of aromafm.zip, because as BOND has discovered this version will be full touch. Rename it to aromafm.zip, make a folder named ".aromafm" (notice the dot before aroma) in clockworkmod folder on sdcard, and copy aromafm.zip in .aromafm folder. Now you can browse your phone without rebooting to Android or connecting the phone to computer.

For porting, unfortunately there are same limitations as in COT recovery - your phone resolution.
​

The most important thing is that you will use from now on the same folder as previous CWM Recoveries, same backups, same settings. Is very good and stable recovery.

Carliv Touch recovery v1.5 - only navigation touch menu

The new version 1.5 can be downloade from OP.

Basically is CWM 6+ with touch buttons menu. It has all functionality of CWM Recovery, and I added extra, Aroma File Manager support.

The touch module is inspired mostly by scanno touch recovery for Advent Vega, but also Napstar touch recovery, and cleaned up and modernized with some stuff from Cannibal Open Touch Recovery.

This is not a modified COT recovery. You won't find here settings or theme or some other cool stuff they created for COT recovery. For that go to COT Recovery thread. I made this recovery to keep it simple and slim, because MTK phones have a limited size recovery partition. As I said, is a CWM modded recovery with touch screen menu buttons. Also I kept the Go Back entry in menu, just in case if for some devices is not working the touch menu (brocken or something) - in that case it will be just a good CWM recovery.

Video will be added soon.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] triwira:
Good Job, I will try this asap...

Why don't you try to make TWRP recovery to this phone...?

I think TWRP has a better UI than CWM
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Deleted member 5186178:
You didn't pay attention at what I said:

The MTK6589 Phones have a recovery with size of 6.2 Mb, and if we took down reserved space from it, it will remain a recovery with 6080-6090 Kb in absolute size. Anything bigger than that won't boot. I know there are some guides on how to increase recovery size modifying scatter file, but that didn't work in my phone (I guess because this phone doesn't have a stock ROM in SPFlashTool format). And also rua1 said that modifying only scatter won't be enough.

So, why make my life complicated when I can simplify it :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] MiLToS_666:
Nice work!

I'm now running your ported COT on my FAEA F2 and I like it a lot!

I'll be waiting for you to port this one for 1080x1920 resolution so I can try it as well! ;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dnle71:
can you share your aroma file manager 1.91?.. also i will be waiting for your hd version of this recovery.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] triwira:
Ok, thank you very much for the explanation, I have no experience in it, but I can understand.

So, I think Carliv Touch Recovery is the only choice if I want to use Touch version of recovery...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] SystemErrorOne:
Will test & create video to show others how this Touch Recovery works on Blu Life Play or other MTK Devices.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Deleted member 5186178:
Sure, but you need to port it first for phone resolution. And the "key test" doesn't work because I remaped keys for touch panel - I should correct that in next release. Or, of course, you can build it from source and repack it after to work in mtk devices.

Thanks!

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] cloak:
I'm using WM5 on my MDAIII a few weeks now. I've installed SPB Pocketplus

and tried the SPB themes. After installing a theme the system ignored the theme and goes back to the original WM5 theme.

But after loading the extended VGA theme's and playing them a few times my system hang's and I've done a soft-reset after shutoff the power.

Now my system accepts the SPB themes and i've a much better screen quality, more colours and a much faster sytem. Also the TomTom maps looks better. It seems that there was something wrong with the video settings. Perhaps the system was running in a poor basic video mode? Perhaps loading a VGA Ext theme has changed the settings?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] realkhaki:
Hi,

Can some please help me to recover photos from my broken S3? I want to download them to PC and then delete before I give it to repair.

My Galaxy S3 dropped, there is a small crack visible in the corner and the screen is completely black. Phone turns on/off (leds do flash), also when I press main button the 'menu' and 'back' buttons flash. Screen does not display anything and I'm not able to tell if the touch input works.

What I've already tried:

1. Connecting to PC - device is visible but I can't enter internal storage

2. Samsung Kies - does not work as the device is locked and can't unlock it (possible because touch input is broken). Also I can't use 'unlock' option on Samsung page as I can't activate sim card.

3. GALAXY S3 UNIFIED TOOLKIT skipsoft.net/?page_id=213 - does not work, probably because the sdk option is not enabled on S3

I can't tell if it's connecting to wifi - on router there is one device identifying as unknown, probably it's S3.

I've found something about recovery/download mode but don't know how to use it to recover photos (if possible at all).

I would really appreciate any help as I have a lot of photos on my S3.

Thanks,

Mike
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robin2:
If you can't enter the internal storage on your pc, it's because your phone has a lockscreen pattern or code. You could try to draw the pattern on the black screen as the touch might still be working. Another option would be to buy a micro usb to hdmi cable and connect the phone to your tv or monitor.

adb and pull it the data out ?, and if you saved the pictures on the SD card just get a reader and pull it from the SD card.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] realkhaki:
Thanks for replies but it did not work.

1. When connecting S3 to TV I got black screen. Tried with other phone - HTC One S and it's working so my micro usb-hdmi adapter is ok.

2. Tried to draw lockscreen pattern but no luck, touch does not work.

3. Connected even USB mouse to S3 and tried to draw lock pattern - no luck, it's very hard to reproduce it.

4. Also can't do adb as the usb debug is most probably disabled on my phone. Tried all possible troubleshooting found online but still 'adb devices' command gives nothing. Again tried with HTC - works.

I need to extract from internal storage, there is no ext. card.

Any other ideas please? Other than hw intervention like self replacing screen...

Thanks,

Actually you should do adb from custom recovery NOT android.

Thanks rootSU!

I've entered recovery mode on S3, now 'adb devices' shows my device. //Edit: what I see is: 4df10efb68e24f99 recovery

I've followed sticky and when doing 'adb pull /data/media/0/ c:\...' or 'adb pull /data/media/ c:\...' I got message that remote object does not exist.

When doing adb pull /data/ c:\... I got message: 0 files pulled. How to find file structure?

//Edit: tried 'adb shell' and then 'adb devices' -> received blank list

Tried 'adb root' -> received "adbd cannot run as root in production builds"

Not really sure what to do next..

//Edit 2: I start to wonder - in the sticky there is: Boot into recovery, connect usb and go to "mounts and storage". Toggle the "mount data" options to mount these partitions. Tip, when mounted, the option then becomes "unmount data"

I don't understand this part: go to "mounts and storage". Toggle the "mount data" options to mount these partitions., where should I do this? Phone screen is dead..

I just wanna ask something out of curiousity.

I'm gonna start off with an example. I have two games which are at least 99% similar..the only difference is their main character's model, but inspite of being the main character, they do.not move, they just simply appear on one side of the screen as if they're just an image file.

So, I wanna transfer Game 1's main character to Game 2 so that they can become 100% similar. How hard will this be, but be gentle with answers please, I'm not a developer and I know only little HTML and Javascript. Thanks.

For some reason I did not see the pop-up for the 50gb promotion when I opened up google drive for the first time. Any ideas on how I could activate the promotion?
[Moto X Q&A] shkrmkr:
I forget....Is Google Drive pre-installed on the MotoX or not? I'd try clearing data/cache on it and try again. If downloaded from the play store, you could even go as far as uninstalling and re-downloading. Reason I asked if it was pre-installed was because if it's a system app, then you could try a factory reset from the phone settings. If all else fails, I guess you'd have to contact google.

- Tried to install drivers for a tweaking app, tablet shut off as soon as i clicked install.

-Somehow got my self to recovery options by holding power + clicking the volume down once while the dead android is showing.

-Factory resetted

- Still stuck on logo

- Can't go into download mode = Dead android with exc. mark / Home button non existant.

-Terribly Frustrated

http://shop.o2.co.uk/shop/o2uk/jsp/tariffs/selectTariff.do?tariffPageView=PayMonthly&pageTab=12Month

clearly says " Unlimited free GPRS and i-mode browsing until 31st December 2005 (compatible handset required)"

although from reading this forum , appears thats not the case - so I emailed / called them and was told - only applies to i-mode phones, well if thats the case why list it on nrmal tariff and not under "imode "

instead I get 5mb for first month, then 1mb pm thereafter

Not happy ! - 5mb may be enough for a small gprs /wap, but not for html browsing on a pda ( which I had inctended to link to laptop)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] dalelane:
i got a similar email reply to this myself today:

they have received enough queries about this by now that they surely must be aware that the page is misleading? and yet, they are still selling Exec's online with the 'unlimited free gprs' claim on the page.

My complaint email ... asking for reinstatement of offer or a small ( in comparison financial rebate) .. their reply just repeats their 1st email, not answering question/ complaint

I will follow this up (This offer is potentially worth 2.3 months x £75 = £172 !! ) ,
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] colinc57:

I have had mine about a week and it says on my bill I get 5mb free (though I e-mailed and asked and was told it was unlimited).

Re; Free GPRS

Hi, I have an online account with o2 and pointed out to the customer help line the URL detailing the "Unlimited free GPRS and i-mode browsing until 31st December 2005 (compatible handset required)". After having a word with his line manager not once or twice but three times! They agreed to add a note to my account stating that I would be reimbursed for any GPRS usage between now and 31st December.

Hope this helps?.. “if you don’t ask.. you don’t get!” :lol:

I had the very same argument with them. It says "GPRS and i-mode" I just kept referring back to their website details. Took three attempts for them to agree, it's very misleading! Hum?.. Accidental?.. Who knows?.. But they haven’t changed it yet!

I have phoned the O2 help previously when I was using the O2XDAIIs and the call centre said "its free so use it" - I did - and to date I have never been charged, now I have the Exec (second device with its own number) I have been using GPRS quite heavily - and await my second bill - the first showed no G3 traffic charge - I will phone when I get chance but to date O2 has not cost a penny above the normal line charge - the advert on the web does state "free" and that means no charge in anyones opinion - Mike
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] colinc57:
Totally agree with you Mike ,

As I read that others were being told , " its not free" , and given its something like £3 per mb on my tariff , I thought ( perhaps stupidly! ) that I ought to check , as rather not be arguing a £1500 bill for 1.3gig download ( which I would had done if also connected to my laptop)

Next part of the saga

---

Sent an email to them , suggesting that as I did not have the free GPRS for 8 days, and it took 6 attempts ( calls/ web forms / emails) befo0re it was resolved , perhaps I should receive a token of compensation

( I also pointed out that under their terms 8.3 / 8.4 I felt I was actually entitled to terminate contract early as it took themn more than 7 days to correct their error. -Petty maybe , but thought a good bargaining position ------ This is not the same as returing phone under 14 day period)

Now get a reply stating ....

Ok they do give me the option of the 14 day return , although implied phone would have to be returned, but cost not credited!

do they mean unlimited or the 5mb first month

--

not really used much ( phone or data) on purpose , until it is sorted once and for all...

does yours show data usage ?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] shabba007:
My online bill does not show data usage even though I have been using it regularly. But to cover my back I emailed O2 online customer service and I told them I had the exec and also asked them whether I had free GPRS on my tarriff with the exec.

I got a reply stating that I did have free GPRS(until dec 31) and so I have saved the email in case they try and bill me for it !!!! you know what they're like, not just o2 but the other networks as well!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Broon:
