I like GS pocket magic but the icon files it uses are obviously from the older versions of Windows mobile.

I remember seeing a post on here with a newer decent WM5 bitmap but can't for the life of me find the post. Also, are there any other bitmap files around for the other buttons to improve their look?

Thanks

Not sure if you've seen it, but check out this page:

http://homepage3.nifty.com/UK-taniyama/tools/GSPMagicPP.html

I think they include VGA icons, but also describe how to make your own. You can read Japanese right?

GSPM was open source at one time, but I think it's become closed at some point (see if you can find out why :wink:) , and is now being updated there.

Does someone know a way to unroot the LG 4x HD (p880) without losing all my stuff
[LG Optimus 4X HD] nikolas60:
what rom are you running stock only root?

Rom

Iam running a stock rom rooted
[LG Optimus 4X HD] kessaras:
no. factory reset.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Flying_Bear:
yes there is.

if you can't unroot via the app (SuperSU), just reflash kdz. it will preserve all programs & data, but your system files will be reverted to stock (which means it will unroot you)

the answer is universal unroot apk.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaqual:
Hey people,

Maybe this is a newb issue and I'm just being dense, but I've searched around and can't really find anyone with a solution for this...

A couple of days ago I flashed my phone to Eragon, and no longer had root privileges. I've been on a couple of AOSP variants, and most recently Viper and Insert Coin, all 4.3 ROMS. Never had a problem with root before.

So I tried to reinstall SuperSU, even manually deleted the files and reflashed through TWRP, then deleted again and tried to install through the Play store. Upgraded TWRP from 2.6.0.0 to 2.6.3.0, tried to reflash Eragon and Sky Dragon again(with full wipe if course), even restored the TWRP nandroid I had made, but still no root!

I've got a Sprint One, unlocked but still S-ON.

Any help would be appreciated...

Ok so never mind, apparently I fixed it somehow between flashing viperboy's old "Sprint disable write protection" and attempting RUU to 1.29.651.7, then restoring ViperROM 3.1 nandroid. Don't know what happened, just works now. Thanks for taking the time to read this(if you did, which of course you would know, by the time you get to this sentence).

Hi,

I am using GE v15 rom. I was wondering which kernel is good for 4.3 on the latest firmware.

What is the advantage/disadvantage of the stock Talop 1.3 vs Abyss 1.7.1F ? I am mainly looking for performance and battery . More emphasis on battery though.

Any useful input is greatly appreciated!

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emerica243:
I for one dont feel the need for LTE myself yet. Perhaps if im dling a large file or something i would want to use it, but my ever day activities that i use my phone for, 4G(HSPA) does just fine. So i decided to do some tests. The main reason i would turn off LTE and just use HSPA is id assume it saves battery. Ive come to this conclusion knowing LTE requires more phone power to hold the signal, and also the conclusion that when im on LTE, my phone signal is always significantly lower then when on HSPA. 1/2 bar vs 4/5bar normally.

How id normally turn off lte was using a shortcut to the Phone Info menu. Where you could change network modes. By default it is LTE/GSM Auto(Prl). I would normally set it to WCDMA Preferred to have it only use 4G(HSPA). However every reboot would reset that.

Until recently i found the Network Mode option within the settings menu. Wondering what the differences are side affects are, or if one mode affects the settings of another. So far ive found that the Network Mode and Phone Info modes are some what linked.

Network mode is under Mobile Network within the More Wireless Settings.

I have this case and it really does not add a lot of bulk to the phone.

I would say around half the thickness of the Spen on its slimmer side, if that makes sense.

Protects the phone really well though, since it has 2 material composition.

I have dropped my phone from my face height several times (talking while holding multiple other stuff on both hands) but case looks fine besides a few surface scratches.

"Fake?" Poetic is just branding a generic case from the same Chinese supplier as the Bear Motion bumper ring case.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Jfree3000:
Just looked at the bumper they have on their site and it looks very similar to the Poetic and Bear Motion, doesn't seem slimmer and its 2/3 times the price. Looks good though, but not for 24 dollars.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] CZroe:
Doesn't look all that similar to me. My main concern is that it might have a transparent shell based on that watermark logo in the pics. That would prevent me from using it with my slightly thicker official Samsung wireless charge cover battery door. The Bear Motion / Poetic case fits fine but I hate the squishy power button. They don't show any pics without a phone so I can't tell if there is a shell or not. With a shell it wouldn't technically be a bumper, but Love Mei is guilty of that error too.

Flash stock firmware with Odin.

Factory reset.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] edcantu9:
Hey thanks for the quick reply!

Yeah I followed this guide at a blogspot website.

It had me flash it with WICKED v10. It didn't work so now I just want it back to normal and I will purchase a sim unlock code from somewhere.

I followed another guide on youtube on how to get it back to stock which I followed.

For the most part it took off most of the Wicked stuff but on the lock screen it still says WICKED and there is an icon with utilities for it, So I am guessing it is not completely removed??

I tried using the phone reset function but still it remains??

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!!

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Bass_Man25:
Take a look at this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1949687.

On the first post, you'll see the firmware under ***root66***. Click "Show Content" to get the listing of zip files. Under the T999 heading (not T999L), grab the zip file for T999_UVDMD5 - Official JB Firmware - Latest JB 4.1.2 Firmware.

Once you have that, scroll down to the second post - it will tell you how to flash that file via Odin (as well as download links in case you don't have Odin). This will return your phone to stock everything (including recovery) but with Root injected into it so you can flash a custom recovery after the reset. It will also upgrade you to Version 4.1.2.

Good luck.:)

--EDIT-- You'll need to go to the second post to the part entitled, "How to Flash the Stock Firmware" and the sub-heading "Using Odin".
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
You followed the Wrong Guide. You follow the Root66 Thread. Since you don't even want your phone to be rooted, you may want to download the Stock firmware from Sammobile.

I did flash with ODIN the stock firmware but as stated it still says WICKED on lock screen and in apps there is a control panel for it. So it is still not all gone. Just want the phone as it came in box in first place. The link you gave me is very confusing. I know a lot about many subjects and can learn quickly, but right now I just need a guide that step by step tells me how to do it.

[HTC Wildfire S] VictorShaun:
Hi ho, all. Maybe one/some of you can shed some light on this...

I have a WildfireS (CDMA, Virgin Mobile in the US, S-OFF RL hboot-1.06.0000 microp-0354 Radio-0.94.00.0824)

It was rooted with installed CWM recovery, but I had to reinstall the stock ROM from RUU.

I want to install the stock recovery, since I think the CWM recovery is prohibiting an OTA update that I need to get back root.

Question is this:

If I put the correct version of the stock recovery on an SD card as PG76IMG.zip, the recovery should find it, recognize it and replace the currently installed CWM, right? This has not worked for me in the past and I'm wondering if it's an issue with the versioning of the .zip, or if flashing using this approach is somehow flawed. The RUU that I used worked, so I should be able to flash the recovery from the same RUU, right?

Tangentally, is there a reason that Shipped-roms doesn't list USA roms for WFS, i.e. Marvel? Lawyers?

Thanks in advance,
