Sorry for my pool writing style, and I just listed my steps for the skilled Wizard DIYer, an in-depth tutorial would be great for all the Wizard users.

HTC Screen is chanagable, actually it is contained in the remaining untouched part of my steps 1.6, the problem is its format is unknown to me, please refer to belowing for its headers, looks like a BITMAP, but can't be loaded into any pic editor, seems being encrypted in some way.

The whole part of the HTC splash screen is attached, it is dumped from NK.NBF by typhoonnbfdecode.pl.

I am having the problem where after it is written onto the device, if I do a hard reset and it tries to run my customizations it pauses while installing the second file on the list and doesnt move any further. Then after performing a manual soft reset if I open /extended_rom/ in pocket commander the entire directory structure is screwed up. Any ideas?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] lewcamino:
I didnt hard reset, but maybe I should check my EXT rom eh?

Well I checked it out, looks ok to me.

Sorry, perhaps you made a mistake with the hexediting?

Later; Lew
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] xelencin:
I got it not to corrupt (I set the file properties in winimage to read only) the problem now is when I boot up after a hard reset and it tries to autorun customization it doesnt install any of the unsigned programs in the list. I see it go through all the files, and the config.txt is setup properly, but it actually doesnt install unsigned cabs. Any idea?

Try 'Cert_SPCS.cab', whether it works at new ROMs.. If yes, just place it in ext.rom and run first.

Well I've had an easier way to change your boot screen for awhile...and I've posted it a few times suprisinly no one has taken notice so I'll post it here....

1. Use aWizard to backup your original ROM, Radio, GSM, etc...(make sure to run the enable rapi and unlock cid)

2. Flash your Wizard with the iMate 2.16 ROM

3. Again enable rapi and unlock cid (the cid will generate an error it's okay)

4. Backup only the new iMate ROM using aWizard

5. Use aWizard to write the original ROM (Original T-Mobile, Cingular, whatever).

6. Use aWizard and enable rapi and unlock cid (might give error again...it's okay)

7. Use aWizard and write the splash screen that you backed up in step 1 or use your custom slapsh screen.

8. Use aWizard and write iMate ROM only (the one backed up in step 4)

That's all.....I've done this on 4 wizards with success on all of them. They were all the T-Mobile MDA (US Version).

Also if you have T-Mobile US and want to get the functionality back download this zip and install the cabs include the registry cab.

As fot the extended ROM....I'm trying to figure something out that's not soo cryptic.....perhaps more of a click and you're done kinda thing...

I suppose this shoul work on 'official' Qtek AKU2 rom as well?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] shanksv:
But this method does not get rid of the HTC and the Windows splash right? It basically replaces the iMate, Qtek etc splash with the Cingular one correct?

I have tried this but I can't seem to get rid of the HTC and Windows splash. It is just 2 too many splashes for me :x

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] lvlolvlo:
yeah it doesn't get rid of the HTC splash, or the Windows Mobile (which is just the png file in the windows directory)......but i fig'd the HTC one isn't too distracting but a big blue iMate for life, for...is kinda annoying
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ZeBoxx:
I'm curious... how often do you people soft reset? >_<

Before this morning, when I tested some theme thing for another thread, I hadn't seen a single splash screen in days - and that time before was again just because I was tweaking something.

Seems to me it's perfectly typical that a person may not see a splash screen for weeks on end.

Not complaining about people wanting to make their own splash screens - I think that's cool :) I'm just curious as to why some people make it out to be such a big issue like "oh no! 3 splashes! I can't live with this!11!!!!1!" when those 3 splashes speed by in just a few minutes and you won't see them again until you soft (or hard) reset -_-
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] hrb:
Right you are - but the related problem (not being able to use the space of the Ext ROM) is a REAL problem !

'twas my understanding that the steps in the first post - although cumbersome - do allow you to modify the ExtROM, no?

It will say "Binary counter: 1" (or however many times it has been tripped) that's how you can tell it has been modified.

If it shows nothing about the counter or shows "Binary counter: 0" you have reset the counter.

[Ubuntu Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krawdawg:
I have a GT-N8013 (Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 wifi model) and had flashed Ubuntu Tough to the device. The Ubuntu Touch distribution that was available at the time had iffy power management, so the tablet would require re-installation of Ubuntu if it froze or went into standby. Now as I am trying to revert it to Android for further research and general use, I am unable to get Android to load. I have tried flashing ClockworkMod to it in order to be able to flash Android ROMs that I have, but this does not seem to do anything. The device currently boots to Android System Recovery, which does not allow for custom ROMs to be loaded. I am using ODIN to flash the device. Any suggestions on how to get it back to Android?

[General Questions and Answers] Howie Dub:
I'm having a couple of issues with Wi-Fi Calling and wanted to see if anyone else is experiencing the same. I have an LG G2 and whenever my phone goes into deep sleep, I don't receive any calls through Wi-Fi Calling. If a push notification comes through, Wi-Fi Calling will work again until the phone goes back into deep sleep. I have Wi-Fi always on in Wi-Fi settings, but that doesn't seem to work. The only thing that works is an app called Regpon WiFi Keep Alive, which prevents the phone from going into deep sleep. It works great, but it drains the battery. Appears to be a software issue since Wi-Fi Calling works fine when Regpon is on.

The other issue is when someone calls in, they sometimes will hear an echo on their end, but the call sounds fine for me. I'll call back and it's fine. I've brought these issues up to T-Mobile Customer Support, but they just regurgitate the same turn off router and wifi, turn on router and wifi, factory reset, etc. If anyone has a remedy to these issues, particular the deep sleep issue, it would be greatly appreciated.

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] spaghettiknight:
First of all you may have to have Play store installed, unless you can find any of the apps I mention in this thread from different sources. UPDATE: I found one of the apps that is need for this tutorial below at 1mobile.com link will be below. For more info on that search around the threads or visit my kindle fire HDX setup thread. It is targeted for the 7" model but you may be able to download these apps from 1mobile.com on the 8.9" or on a 7" that doesn't have play store.

So, first off, I installed a app from play store called recent apps quick button, which basically activates android's recent apps, I havent found another (legal) link to this besides playstore so please share if you do. then I installed a app from play store called Home2 shortcut, here's a link to Home2 shorcut on 1mobile, I haven't confirmed it works on default ROM so let me know your findings! this lets you assign the resent apps quick button to double tapping the home button so now when i double tap the home button it brings me to recent apps. It's really nice since kindles default Rom doesn't have a recent apps button! let me know what you think and if i works for people without a different launcher (I use ADW launcher). post any questions you have in this thread.

Are you using a third party app to screenshot? or is there a button combination to do it that i don't know about.

No not that kind of screenshots... I mean the "previews" in the recent apps which is in reallity small screenshots of the apps while recent apps are running.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] CmdrCrichton:
Does sliding the right side of the screen to the left show the same recent apps?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] dcoig1:
Possibly, but this program he is referring to also allows you to close recent apps by swiping them away. I like to pin this recent apps program to the "W8 taskbar" application which also has a task killer and shortcut to desktop. It makes accessing wifi toggle and reboot/ power off simple to do.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] Hanzo.Hasashi:
You can use switchr for recent apps. It works and looks good too. Lmt launcher is also working although it fcs. I think fc has to do with root, cause it actually needs root to work properly.

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] thewihlygeek:
Yeah you can, it's in the options. You can have so you swipe through open apps, swipe down to kill the currently selected one and even swipe to the upper right corner to kill all.

Though that might be the pay version. I can't remember what's in which version off the top of my head.

Ok, so I have an HTC One X and it is the white AT&T LTE version. I have CM11 installed on it now and in the phone info section of settings it lists the phone as a One X, but when I had IMAGIOrom installed it listed the phone as the One XL. The model number on the back is PJ83100. I am getting ready to order a new screen/digitizer to replace my scratched and cracked one. There are several ones on ebay that are AT&T branded and the description says they are for the S720E and from what I read elsewhere that the S720E is the device that carries the Endeavor codename and the X325A is the Evita, which is what I have. I just want to make sure that if I order one that has the AT&T logo on it, that it will work. From what I can tell the size differences between the Endeavor and the Evita are very minimal, but enough to make a difference on whether the glass will fit. Any clarification or other suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
