[General Questions and Answers] amrmostafa1998:
yeah i've done that but after all the steps nothing happens, and when i try to install it, it says "App not installed"

sorry for bothering but im still a newbie
[General Questions and Answers] giannism13:
Don't try to install the app manually. Just put it to system /app , set correct permissions and reboot. After reboot finished press the home button.
[General Questions and Answers] amrmostafa1998:
done, nothing happened :/
[General Questions and Answers] giannism13:
Did you pressed the home button. You must press it after unlocking you SIM and screen. Also, a window may pop up asking you with what app you want to process and you must select your stock launcher. If none of the above worked then go settings>applications find the launcher that comed preinstalled with your Rom and select clear defaults. For further help you can ask from someone to do a proper port. I can't help further.
[General Questions and Answers] amrmostafa1998:
yea i pressed the home button after i unlocked sim card and screen

thanks for helping anyway .. :)
[General Questions and Answers] giannism13:
Found a Guide

I did a little research and i found this guide.

I can't help you further. If you failed to solved your problem, although you followed the guide, then your best bet is to post a request on your device

forum.
[General Questions and Answers] Mr. X.:
before flashing rom just add ur stock launcher.apk in zip of custom rom

path=system/app
[General Questions and Answers] giannism13:
I will work, only if the rom is stock-based. If it is cm-based, or aosp-based it won't work.

What is the best PC Decrapifier? Something like Ccleaner, but better?
[Windows 8 General] SixSixSevenSeven:
You already named it, at least for registry decrapifying.

In my opinion though the best decrapifier is not crapifying in the first place.
[Windows 8 General] GoodDayToDie:
Or learning to do it manually. I've never met one such tool that I trusted, or that I was confident did enough good to be worth the risk of harming the system.
[Windows 8 General] stevedebi:
I have had good luck with System Mechanic. It has kept my xp machine usable - after 10 years! www.iolo.com
[Windows 8 General] ericerk:
Is there a tutorial on this?
[Windows 8 General] mcosmin222:
Yep

1) go to control panel>programs and features>uninstall a program

2) find the stuff you want to remove>uninstall, follow on screen instructions.

for trash files:

Right click partition>properties>general tab>disk clean up>use it to delete everything you want.

After you;ve done these

right click the partition from which you deleted the files>properties>tools>defrag/optimize and defrag the disk.

Do this every 1-2 months and you shall have a happy relationship with your PC.

There is also a good thing to keep all stuff downloaded from the internet in the downloads folder until you can make sure you actually need it, so you can delete it all at once.

There is really no magic stuff the "cleaner programs" do. And windows does it better than they do. So why not use the tools you have at your disposal?

as 6677 said, it is better to avoid getting craptose in the first place. Just be careful what you download and you shall be fine.
[Windows 8 General] stevedebi:
Certainly one should keep the list of installed programs as minimal as is possible, but over time Windows builds up problems in the registry and elsewhere that simply slow down the system. In fact, uninstalling programs often leads to the registry values not being uninstalled as well, because of poor uninstallers by the programmers. Even if the values are uninstalled, that produces gaps in the registry unless it is compacted as well. That sort of thing simply isn't efficiently handled except by a program designed for the purpose. So one can improve the system by uninstalling - but the little stuff keeps building up.

Defragmenting the hard drive also helps, and should be done periodically.

It is a poor design by Microsoft. One simple solution is to simply reformat and reinstall windows every few years, thus clearing out the registry and all Windows problems. But that can be a hassle to reinstall and re-download all the updates.

My home XP machine, at about 10 years, is the longest I've ever maintained any Windows installation without reformatting. It boots a bit slowly, but once it is up and operational it is still usable. Before I ran system mechanic (and still use it periodically) it simply could not be used. I didn't reformat the machine because it has programs (mostly games) that my son still likes, and I don't have the disks and/or install codes for them any more.

I would suggest a reformat / complete reinstall as the best possible solution.
[Windows 8 General] SixSixSevenSeven:
CCleaner clears out the old registry keys in theory, otherwise one can do it manually as GoodDayToDie suggested.

Windows actually defrags as you go along now, you will generally find that manual defragging is entirely unecessary. Although if you do want to do it as piece of mind it at least wont take long (my desktop I upgraded to windows 8 on release and has still only just reached 0.1% fragmented).
[Windows 8 General] stevedebi:
It is rather difficult to clean out registry values that have no clear naming convention, just a random string of hex codes - not all programs are logical in the directory entries. So manual cleaning has never seemed that good to me.

I'm presuming that the OP is not using windows 8, which really hasn't had time to get cluttered yet. For those older windows xp and win 7 installations, I have found System Mechanic Pro to be the best program, since it has programs for optimizing as well as cleaning out. I haven't yet installed it on any of my Windows 8 machines (no need yet so far as I can tell).

I've not heard of windows automatically defragmenting the disk, do you have a link?

EDIT: Nevermind, I just checked my Windows 8 and I see that microsoft has set up the defrag to run periodically. I'm not sure this was enabled in Win 7, but I had diskeeper on that installation so I would not have noticed.
[Windows 8 General] ericerk:
I'm using an HP ENVY 17 w/ 4th gen intel i7 (Running 8.1)

It just feels slower, than my win 7 platforms.

It's a refurb, It was on sale from staples for 50% off. This thing: http://www.staples.com/HP-ENVY-Touc...rbished-Laptop/product_12329?cmArea=home_box1

It just feels slow... Yes I got rid of bloat, yes I keep a good eye on installed apps. Yes I have anti viruses, there are no viruses.
[Windows 8 General] mustbepbs:
If you're talking about pre installed crap that comes on every pre-built system, you've got to do it manually.

If you're talking about toolbars and trial ware and junk ware and ilk, I use a combination of ADW Cleaner, Ccleaner, Combofix and Super Anti Spyware. Gets the job done. Some stuff is still manual, though.
[Windows 8 General] GoodDayToDie:
The only legitimate excuse for an OEM-installed OS image is to boot the thing up so you're sure you don't have a lemon. You can copy the "drivers" folder (which can come under a variety of silly names) off the machine if you want to, but they're all online anyhow and often the online ones are more up-to-date. Make sure you have the license keys for any installed software that comes with the machine (the OS license key, and the Office one if relevant, are typically on stickers somewhere on the machine, though they can be elsewhere).

Once you've completed the initial bootup, shut the machine down, boot off of a DVD or flashdrive or external HDD or netboot or however you want to do it, and wipe the disk. The Windows installer, in "custom" (clean install) mode can do this. Delete all of the partitions, and either re-create them in less-stupid layout, or just let Windows create a sane partition layout for you by telling the installer to install Windows on the now-empty system drive. Once the system is set up, you'll need to install updates and software you actually want to use, but you'd probably have to do all of that anyhow. Drivers should get pulled down automatically, and for those that aren't, it should be trivial to retrieve them (the obvious exception would be if you somehow don't have working network drivers, in which case grab them off the web on another PC and transfer via USB).

Those OEM system images are pure garbage. In my experience, the first bootup of such a thing can sometimes take longer than the entire OS re-installation, including *its* first bootup! A clean install will run faster, more securely, and more stably; you will have far more resources available including disk space and RAM; you can be sure there are no unexpected programs lurking in the background to "optimize your customer experience" or similar BS. Since you already have the license keys, it won't cost you anything. Best of all, those OEM turds masquerading as software (Norton anything, WildTangent, etc.) will be gone, far faster *and* more cleanly than if you'd tried removing them without taking the nuclear option. It's the only way to be sure.
[Windows 8 General] ericerk:
Wait... So in theory If I can find a legit version of Windows 8.1 (some RTM or straight from Microsoft) I can just reinstall it, and use my current serial? I don't have very much installed so I there's nothing really i'd need to back up, other than some Touchscreen drivers.
[Windows 8 General] GoodDayToDie:
Yep. That serial may not work on any *other* computer (or it might; I don't know how restrictive OEM licenses are on 8.x) but it should work (again) on that one.
[Windows 8 General] ericerk:
Worth A try.
[Windows 8 General] ericerk:
It won't even work on my mine getting an error message:

(Same thing happens w/ 8.1)
[Windows 8 General] GoodDayToDie:
Seriously?? Wow, lame. I've been doing that for years. I guess they don't allow the use of OEM licenses with retail copies at all anymore, even on the same hardware. I'm sure you could get them to activate it if you called them, but that's a bloody pain to need to do...

It's possible that the .WIM file (Windows IMage) in the recovery partition is a clean installer without the OEM crap (I'd be surprised, but not shocked; they could have it run a script to crapify the installation after re-installing) in which case you *should* be able to use that, but... meh. That's less convenient, for sure.
[Windows 8 General] ericerk:
I did the windows 8 reset, which took about 6 hours and just loaded up the OEM bunch of software w/ all the bloat installed. I guess I'll call Microsoft soon... Do you know of a direct number?
[Windows 8 General] stevedebi:
Just go through the computer and remove the junk programs. The control panel will allow you to uninstall them. If you haven't done it yet, I'd install classic shell (or similar) to get your start menu back.

You can also use msconfig (type the WIN + R and type in the command) to remove startup programs from running.

I'm sorry, I thought you were dealing with an older machine, that is why I suggested system mechanic. A new machine can be easily cleaned up manually.
[Windows 8 General] ericerk:
It's all good, I did that the first day I got the comp!! It just feels like like its sluggishly running.

I don't know but you can delete some bloatware which produces wakelocks with a root browser or titanium backup.

Check the apps betterbatterystates or wakelock detector.

You can also turn on stamina mode in settings.

Hi everyone

I'm facing a very annoying problem. my Atrix show and explain the problem to me even though I telephonist is all programmatically, they said I need to format but I think I have hardware.

When I turn off my phone every December 6 turns. For example, when I delete one to two applications, photograph shoot, when I reboot the phone by the programs have come back, if my photography is gone, WhatsApp My speech is going back to December 6.Connect the phone to the PC in the same way music, rom, etc. when I threw the zip file .. usb disconnect the look of the phone seems to have deleted files, seems to throw more precisely, I cant go to the factory settings, I cant format sd card.Fastboot mode operations such as hard reset formats'm doing. When he opened successfully but says does not change anything from December 6 phone again Cwm in the mount process data, cache, system, Preinstall, gives an error when formatting. Original GB Stock ROM flashing with RSD, but the phone while flashing process is going repositionable 6 december. Most application itself off, the process terminates, etc.. In short, I can not do any operation with built-in storage, screwing with my head.:eek:

such remains. All unmount / mount have repeatedly tried by .. There's nothing changing.

My english is not good.. When you translate text in many places i used google translate :(

I hope you can help me and understand. :silly:

Recently bought a O2 XDA mini s off a mate, and realised there is no MMS mailbox, all other messaging apps seem to be fine.

Anyone know how i can resolve this?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] jamichy:
try doing a hard reset, that will restore everything hopefully, or you can reload the ROM again
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Puckster:
It sounds like the extended rom setup wasnt run as theres extra cab files there that add the mms folders. I have a copy of the O2 mini s german extended rom and the cab file you will want will be similar to CAB-Shortcut-O2UK-09Sep05.cab however it might be named differently for you depending on what rom you have installed. You should find the extended rom you need on the xda ftp site.

Also, some peoople have reported that installing the i-mate equivalent to this cab file on their k-jams hasnt worked so there could be other files needed to complete mms setup. If it works for you it could at least save a hard reset if you dont want to lose all your current sms's, settings etc.

Cheers,

[HTC One X] AlexTheMatrix:
I've had my stock unrooted HOX for about a year and a half now. Recently it sometimes won't charge when it's plugged in, even though the LED lights up and the phone tells me it's supposedly charging.

It has happened when it's been at 0% and will only turn on for a minute before dying again, and it has happened when it's been at 100% and started to drop when I've started using it when it's plugged in.

This can happen from a few weeks without an incident to not charging every night, it varies a lot.

I have replaced the charger with another "official" one.

Strangely if I plug it into the USB port of a computer it will start charging just fine, but doing that isn't practical for me.

My question is basically to ask if anyone else has had the same problem and found a solution that doesn't involve sending it off to T-Mobile/EE. I have already sent it off once to fix the common wifi issue, which they didn't fix anyway.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] bqudamith:
First root your device.

- There are many ways to root. But i used this.

Then install RegionLockAway-v1.3.apk. ( This app needs root access )

After that remove region lock with RegionLockAway application..

I just found the way. Please thanks to original authors.

** Checked with 4 i337 devices.. All unlocked perfectly..

If you are on mk2 lease try this..

Thank you

Just tried with an MF3 SGH-I337. The app said it looks like the unlock was successful, then I rebooted with a T-Mobile sim inserted.

It never asked for an unlock code upon boot with the new sim... Thought that was a good sign...

I have full bars of service signal from T-Mobile, but no data. Checked APN settings, and the phone pulled the correct settings from the network, but won't connect to data, even edge.

Tried to make a call, emergency calls only prompt comes up. Only option is to click OK.

Did I do everything right?

I'm not trolling - trying to get people bricked. If you are worried, don't take my word for it - don't run the patch - I don't care.

I'm reading that jortex's root also works for this unlock. I'll test this tonight. Kingo hasn't earned my trust without releasing their source code.

Edit: Removed root previously applied via SafeRoot. Re-rooted with jortex's method. Ran region lock away. Rebooted with T-Mobile sim inserted. Emergency calls only prompt. Stock MF3 ROM. Too bad. I'm not restoring to complete stock with odin just yet. Maybe some other time.

Hey all. I have Galaxy S4 AT&T I337 on MK2 base. I root & SafeStrap MK2 then upgrade using Muniz NC1 flash. Then reflash from within SS the I337 MDL MODEM files **only**. This allows you to gain access to the hidden Service Menu via *#0011# on keypad ... then simply use the well documented method of unlocking via Phone Control menu option ... rebuild your NV ... save it as Golden Backup ... reload it ... reboot your Galaxy and then run the Qualcomm AWS flash procedure to gain additional bands for other carriers. This achieves permanent unlock. I have tested this method using T-Mobile and Straight Talk Sims and both load and work perfectly fine and survive updating and reflashing Roms.

It is a licensing feature.

1) Licensee information are stored at a very simple website. With columns for Names, IMEI and Remarks.

2) I have the following chunk of code:

.setMessage("Your device is registered.\nWelcome.")
.setPositiveButton("Send", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener()

You can show a toast using:

Just make the text String first with the text and time. For duration use Toast.LENGTH_SHORT
