I never tried it, but what if you overwrite a default tone (stored in rom so not so easy to change or delete) in \windows and assign it to the event? You can overwrite rom files & restoring is dead easy just delete the ram file!

I tried it with Alarm4.wav & replaced it with a mp3 the 'preview' didn't work. Got no wav at the moment, so you have to give it a shot yourself.

Cheers, M
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Exec.:
HI,Oltp

I have got a few .wav HERE

But, I have no idea which fold under the windows\ I should put them in.

You know we can only change the ringtone from the default fold but browse from other folds.

So, which fold you have tried before? :lol:
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] oltp:
try overwriting \windows\alarm1.wav
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] oltp:
Ok This works, I got home and put a small .wav over the \windows\alarm4.wav my default for reminders. It previews ;-)K

Tested it with a scheduled appointment, works t:-):-)

Now it's your turn,

M
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Exec.:
HI,just try.....

but I cant find the \windows\alarm4.wav

or any similar alarm.wav under the \windows FOLD

are they under any specific fold after \windows

I use 2003SE as well

cheers
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] oltp:
What kind of browser are you using? I don't see them with my PC explorer via Act.sync & using resco exporer with the option 'hide files in rom' there invisible too.

The normal ppc file explorer shows them & resco of course when you uncheck 'hide files in rom'.

They're in \windows no sub folder. Names can be found in the event box too. I'am sorry don't know how to be more specific than, just go to \windows with the default ppc file explorer.

Cheers, M
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] oltp:
Any wav will do

Hi Exec,

It's even more simple, just put your .wav in \windows & you can select it in the list-box of the notifications tab. So no need to look for existing wav files.

Tried it myself & it works.

So I'm trying to find out if I'm the only one getting terrible life out of my battery. I used to get 16 hours + and still have 10% left. Now, it drops about 15% an hour. I use less than 25% brightness.

Lux dash as auto brightness (I hate the fact that you have to lower the brightness settings to get better battery life?)

I'm usually on wifi, on my better battery stats, I go 3-4.5% per hour when I'm not using it which can last the whole day but once I use it, it just eats up the batter from 15%-25%max per hour usage. Very disappointing.

Use a file manager. I use root explorer (have since 2010!!!).

Navigate to /, aka root. Look for 'system'. Go to 'app'. Pathway is: /system/app

Find hangouts.apk. Rename to hangouts.apk.bak. Paste the apk from download. Change permissions to match the others. If using root explorer, it's:

Reboot.

Try this Software!

If u r on any stock ROM try this software Eroot 1.3.4 (Google it and you will get dev hosted download link )

Connect your cell with MSC and Debugging ON and press root button. Your cell will be rooted in few minutes.

If you are not on stock ROM , then mostly all custom ROMs are pre-rooted . Even if they aren't search superuser.zip and flash via CWM your cell will be rooted in no time :D

Hello!

I've followed this tut: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2099784

After that, i got some problem:

1. LGOG bootup to Nexus screen animations, so long > 5 minutes, i've tried "fastboot -w".

2. I've flashed stock rom ICS, V10c, then flash conversation .bin file, LGOG stoped in nexus bootanimations. :crying:

How do i convert my LGOG to Nexus 4???? My device is running stock rom 4.1.2 v20j .

Thank you so much! and sorry for my bad English :(

do it again fastboot -w thats your problem... and check if your phone really is connect with pc.. in fastboot mode..

Make sure you have Nexus 4 driver install in your pc
[AT&T LG Optimus G] nguyenhonganh:
I'm sure, i typed "fastboot devices" and Nexus driver was installed. :(

I think After LGOG has converted to nexus 4, the internal storage has came ZERO Byte, so nexus 4 can't bootup.

:(

Anyone have idea for me ?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] DanielGalan:
Go into recovery and do a factory reset. Then go into fastboot and unlock the bootloader and install a customr recovery like CWM or TWRP. Then, go back into custom recovery and in advanced format SD Card. Reboot phone and good luck

[AT&T LG Optimus G] extremeblizz:
Very simple- I've done this conversion many times, you just need to do something very simple- get to fastboot, and use the command fastboot oem lock and then fastboot oem unlock

after that you'll get a bootloader unlocking menu, press unlock, it will boot and all will be well.

Good luck!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshik:
I do that using "fastboot oem unlock" on Nexus7. It works fine.

But I wanted to know whether this operation replaces the existing bootloader? Currently fastboot mode shows me "Flo-03.14" as bootloader version.

Is this boot-loader (i.e. Flo-03.14) second stage boot-loader which resides somewhere on internal storage (maybe in boot partition)?

I am under the impression that unlocking the bootloader and rooting the device are two different thing, and former does not require the later.

Similarly flashing a custom recovery (e.g. CWM) does not required device to be rooted, and one can remove the stock recovery with the custom one.

Kindly let me know if this understanding is correct.

Best regards.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdfzhi:
Yes, up until now that is correct. Rooting usually doesn't require unlocking bootloader and flashing recovery doesn't require root. On older samsung phone, to root it I always flash custom recovery (cwm or twrp) via its stock recovery first, then boot into the custom recovery and flash superuser or supersu flashable zip to root it.

On older xperia phone where all of them are bootloader locked, its possible to root it without need of unlocking the bootloader.

But now with google enforcing selinux and dm-verity on newer android, that might not be possible anymore.

Sent from your phone
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshik:
Thank you for the information. And unlocking the boot-loader replaces the older boot-loader?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
No, it just removes some security flags in the bootloader which is completely replaceable with

fastboot oem lock

The beauty of owning a nexus....
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshik:
Okay.

So this booloader (Flo-03.14) is second stage bootloader and stored on "\boot" partition? And normal kernel(not the recovery one) is also stored in boot partition?

And what is the way to mount \boot partition. I tried to first boot in the recovery, and after that used this to mount-

mount -t /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot /boot

But it fails with the error that operation is not permitted. I tried mounting read-only, but that too does not work.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Boot partition is kernel not bootloader, what are you trying to accomplish?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshik:
Okay.

So this booloader (Flo-03.14) is second stage bootloader and stored on "\boot" partition? And normal kernel(not the recovery one) is also stored in boot partition?

mount -t ext4 /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot /boot

But it fails with the error that operation is not permitted. I tried mounting read-only, but that too does not work.[/QUOTE]
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Again, boot partition is kernel

Bootloader is its own partition
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshik:
Do you know the name of that partition? Apart from boot, I can see "aboot" and "abootb" on Nexus 7.

And I am able to flash the custom recovery without rooting. I think, only unlocking the bootloader was required (on Nexus 7) in order to flash the custom recovery.

Does that apply on other android devices too? Or we need something more than unlocking the bootloader?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Unlocking is often a prerequisite for rooting but every android device is different so there is no universal method

And you will not be able able to mount bootloader partition or list this or any inactive partition. Not sure what you are trying to accomplish but if you explain in more detail I'll see if I can help
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshik:
I was just curious about checking the contents of boot partition, so thought of mounting it.

And as for unlocking the boot-loader, I wanted to know whether that is enough for flashing the custom recovery, or the process varies from device to device.

Sorry for creating the confusion, maybe asking multiple questions in the same thread is not a good idea.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
No worries, feel free to ask as many questions as youd like, and keep asking if confused that's how you learn

If you want to see contents of boot that you'll need to either download a kernel source or extract contents, either way you won't do it on your phone just from PC

The bootloader is much more difficult to break down and will require a lot more skill to understand than the boot partition, this is much more locked down often as it is proprietary

And yeah, every device has a different method to root

Not sure if there would be a gprs symbol or some such that would tell you, you were connected by 02 but for me the simplest answer would be to surf a page and then turn off your modem. Press a link on the page and if it comes up with a page not found, you know you were using your adsl. You could do pretty much the same by turning off your bluetooth device and see if the page links work.

Just as a note, why didnt you buy a wifi dongle or pci card which will give you far quicker browsing than through bluetooth ?
