Dear JustArchi Oracle :D

Realizing I'm been a little greedy with all your knowledge and previously excusing me.

I could perform the experiment but think that the answer you may already promptly have.

We, at 'Windows Theme Planet' :o, have a set of batches called APKTOOL that, in association with several jar's, decompile and recompile all the app's needed for our jobs.

Furthermore, we release the work using another tool called Villain Theme Flasher (and forks) to the users. vrTheme does an excellent job but if not used carefully can do some awful things.

Finally (UFA!) my question is: couldn't we 'run' APKTOOL set of jar's from within Android to accomplish the theming assembly? (replacing vrTheme)

We themers would release our work uncompiled (.9.pngs, xml's, smali's and stuff) and submitted to the user's device Android-Apktool. As apktool is as safe as Android memory loading regarding non addressed resources, it would create a fail safe distribution method. Developers/Modders/Themers would still be able to inject new resources when properly editing their coded references but not even one themers png left over from older versions would be committed to the apk's anymore.

After these tons of words, I'm in doubt if I've been understandable. :rolleyes:

Thank you anyway for all your time and supportiveness

.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustArchi:
Actually, vrtheme is exactly what you're asking for.

Vrtheme is a linux script, which overwrites every specified file from folder of an app.

It doesn't overwrite non-existent files, therefore if you limit your theme to only .pngs .jpgs .gifs or anything, it won't overwrite classes.dex or anything like that, therefore you can be sure that your mod will work with every Samsung release, as long as they won't implement new pictures.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kdio:
My Oracle! :D

Unfortunately vrtheme does inject anything you give him. Only Universal Theme Flasher (vrtheme fork) if the UFT.config flag CLEAN_MORPHING is set to YES will have the desired behaviour.

What I've could research, vrtheme does not de/re compile ... it just un/zip things and UTF is the same.

Think that only a set of tools aimed to the apktool jar's would be safe enough.

Thank you very much.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustArchi:
I know what you mean now.

This could be possible with my pocket debian, as I could bundle native java and execute baksmali.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kdio:
There is light! There is light! There is light! There is light! :D

Well ... not really have the knowledge to evaluate the details but seems a YES :D

Now I can start somewhere !! Some1 pointed the direction of the light !!!

Thank you so much for your synapses lost while helping me here :D

Nice regards my master.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustArchi:
Still, without ROM-side support it shouldn't be possible to flash, as pocket debian requires ROM support firstly. As for now it's ArchiDroid-unique feature only in SGS3.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smokey_bear:
My phone: Note 3 N9005 KitKat 4.4.2, rooted with CF-Auto-Root.

Light Flow - LED&Notifications was working well till I upgraded to KitKat 4.4.2, since then no led notifications anymore. Sound notifications works fine. I tried several Light Flow versions, the most recent 3.15.103-105 included, but the led notification problem remains.

In phone settings->security>notification access I switched off and back on Light Flow and rebooted the phone but it didn't fix the problems.

In phone setting->accessibility Light Flow is switched off.

Everything is de-activated in phone settings->led indicators.

Anyone knowing how to solve the problems with Led notifications?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewpmoore:
If you are running in standard mode (ie not root mode) you'll need "notifications" on in the phone settings led indicators.

If running root, you will need root mode, Samsung root mode and potentially dependant on the rom "run all commands as root". These settings are all in lightflow, settings
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smokey_bear:
Phone is running root, no custom rom, settings are as advised (Samsung root mode) but it doesn't solve the problem...
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewpmoore:
Do you have "run every command as root" enabled as that's the usual issue if using stock rooted
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smokey_bear:
Yes, is enabled.

In settings is activated:

- Enable Light Flow

- Dark Theme

- Root mode

- Samsung root mode

- Run every command as root

- Run in foreground

- Enable Clear all

- Accessibility check

- Version upgrade reminder

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smokey_bear:
Problem is solved

In the very first place my gratitude to the Light Flow developer, despite the fact it's weekend he reacted straight away to solve the problem!:good:

I did what he suggested:

Switched off Root Mode in Light Flow settings, subsequent switched in Phone Settings > Led Indicators notifications ON. Finally I rebooted the phone.

LED Notifications Light Flow are working now, I'm again a happy Light Flow user. And like I already told before, support issues Light Flow are handled in a great way by the developer.

[HTC One X] lukes91:
if you are on custom rom, you can find the apk in the rom zip, so push it via fastboot or copy/paste it in system/app folder with a file manager... if you are not on custom rom, search the apk somewhere and push it the same way... always pay attention to the apks you push in your phone!!

[HTC One S] -Luke-:
thank you and thanks to [MENTION=5066258]rc420head[/MENTION] for testing :)

I fixed the guide and the title if this thread may be useful to someone, mods can move the thred in the development section.

does the temp root still work on 4.1.1 ?

thanks
[HTC One S] ChristianFS1:
i'm curious whether that works on my phone. here are the specs i could retrieve ATM:

[IMG="#1"]http://dl-1.va.us.xda-developers.com/2/8/2/8/7/1/9/2014-07-02_15.42.06.png?key=wzuplxk9bZ72pI_rKDf5ww&ts=1404308748[/IMG]

i have a mac with ADB setup.

-is this exploit dependent on which hboot i'm running?

-can anyone confirm that the temproot method actually works for this device?

-would it be prudent to use geohot's "towel root" app to gain root?

Thanks in advance! :D
[HTC One S] light_n_roses:
I have tried yesterday evening to do the S-OFF with the firewater but after I agree to the conditions this is the result :

http://postimg.org/image/8u3gmvxwb/

Still S-ON ...what can I do?

P.S. I have tried the first way.
[HTC One S] light_n_roses:
any help?
[HTC One S] -Luke-:
Which os you have on your pc? You can try with one different than windows (especially 8/8.1)..try with different os (like Linux) reboot phone and try again
[HTC One S] light_n_roses:
I have tried on windows 7 x64...indeed I have specificaly installed it on a hard drive...
[HTC One S] -Luke-:
Hmm, seems to be a driver issue. For this I suggested to try another os ..

Otherwise you can try uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers and try again.
[HTC One S] light_n_roses:
I'll try to reinstall the drivers anyway it seems strange to me that the drivers are the problem because fastboot was responding and all the steps worked except the last one.
[HTC One S] lingowistico:
Does this method work with both S3 and S4?
[HTC One S] -Luke-:
I'm not sure but It should work on both
[HTC One S] light_n_roses:
I have tried again with an older version of the HTC driver but still it doesn't work. Same situation of the last try. It said: nasty, need a chaser
[HTC One S] Steve-Oo:
Worked for me after second try.

First try opened two bottles and returned to normal command prompt line. The phone seemed to be turned off.

Issuing the command adb reboot restarted the phone. Tried again after reboot and gained s-off on the first bottle. Thanks!
[HTC One S] bernanio:
Hi,

I'm looking for firewater, ther is only sunshine :/

Have you got any links?
[HTC One S] Flippy498:
Firewater doesn't exist, anymore. There are only rumrunner, facepalm, moonshine and sunshine for this device.
[HTC One S] bernanio:
I found firewater on my old backup of files, now I need CM11 to use it

If this doesn't work I weel use oters.

Thanks for replay!
[HTC One S] Mr.zeus:
please share it

anyway it's like RUMRUNNER

and that works very good

So I bought GTA SA today in the Play Store and when I launched the game just force closes...

Just a black screen and then a force close..

I'm running KatKiss #019 (Android 4.4.2) but I think its not the roms fault.

I saw on Google something about the Tegra 2 not being supported by GTA SA?

Anyone knows something? Or I payed 6 euros for nothing...

Try a few other themes (changing them should help) - it should revert back to same color.
[General Questions and Answers] the immunity:
Hi.

I made an account just to post this because I honestly don't know where else to go. I'm new at rooting so please explain everything in simple terms.

I rooted my Verizon Galaxy S4 a few days ago and everything was great. I did a few soft mods with Xposed and Wanam and everything was still great. I thought I would wait until the weekend to do some custom ROM flashing and whatnot since I knew it was a time consuming process.... MAN was it a time consuming process. Mainly because I messed up my whole phone.

I installed Safestrap v3.71 (CWM Recovery wasn't compatible with my phone or something...?) and flashed Hyperdrive RLS13 to my MK2 build Verizon Galaxy S4 on ROM Slot 1. It worked great but I saw that all my free space in my internal memory was taken up because of my Stock ROM being too large. So I proceed to wipe data from the Stock ROM slot after backing it up and putting the backup on my computer. I factory reset the Stock ROM and hit reboot. I think the error occurred because I forgot to reselect the ROM Slot 1. Or maybe factory resetting like that isn't supposed to happen... I don't know.

But now my phone won't boot up all the way. It's stuck on the Samsung Galaxy S4 screen. I tried booting into recovery but it just takes me to the stock recovery. Apparently Safestrap is unable to be booted into directly or something... so i tried to factory reset from there and it did.

Now my phone won't even go into recovery mode. If I try it will say "Recovery Booting" but the screen will go black and reboot again and get stuck on the Samsung Galaxy S4 screen.

I HAVE LOOKED EVERYWHERE ON THE INTERNET and nothing directly applies to me or is simple enough for me to understand... I am currently downloading the NO-WIPE method stock ROM or something for what I think applies to me from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2578209 so I can put that into Odin which I downloaded (but don't really know how to use) and it says it will take 3 hours to download. GREAT. More waiting. I would like something quicker if possible.

SO MY QUESTION IS:

WHAT THE HELL DO I DO???

Specs of my phone again:

Verizon Galaxy S4 SCH-1545

Android 4.3

Build MK2

Kernel Mk2

(I'm not even sure what all that means but there it is)

ALL HELP WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED BECAUSE I DON"T KNOW WHAT TO DO!

Thank you. So. Very. Much.

I had a bricked iphone 4 clone mc517ch with a mt6573 hardware. Can anyone help
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jhr5474:
So I posted a thread earlier about not being able to make phone calls after flashing to MF1 for MIUI and then flashed back to ML1 for Wicked sensations still could not use my phone to make calls. So after doing lots of reading I decided since I could get into download mode to just flash back to stock I went with 4.1.2 MF1 It flashes through the whole process and passes, for some reason I get no blue bar. Then my phone wont boot, It pops up the samsung screen with an unlocked padlock on it and then nothing just goes to 4g lte verizon screen. Never past that. So I decide I will flash an odin philz touch to see if I can get it to boot recovery and it works. So I try and flash TKrom and when it boots it tells me with a triangle to go to verizon store blah, blah, blah NOT HAPPENING! Any ideas? My boot loader is still unlocked right? If so how do I get back to using recovery and flashing roms this is just ridiculous. When I flash with Odin it always goes directly to android and starts flashing a file, I am totally lost here. I have been reading for hours and cant figure it out.

EDIT: first flash must have been bad I am now on 4.1.2 stock and headed to casual!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jhr5474:
still cant use my phone to call people!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] twistedillutions:
Is ur mei imei intact? Wicked sensation a tw base.. Did u take the 4.3 OTA?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jhr5474:
Oh wow, somebody replied. No I did not take the OTA, I have succeeded in going back to stock 4.1.2 and I rooted, unlocked and put recovery on and flashed TKrom still same issue it just sits and says dialing when I try and use my phone dialer after I press call. I do still have my IMEI, I am now on TK with same issue data no calls.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] twistedillutions:
Wen u went back to stock were u able to make calls etc?

---------- Post added at 04:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:48 AM ----------

Make sure ur on Global(lte cdma gsm evdo) and ruim/sim
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jhr5474:
NO, That is what has me so confused
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buhohitr:
I suggest to flash back to stock, then go into settings->about phone->status and make sure your the stuff still there (PRL, IMEI etc.), call VZ support and ask to reprovision your phone. It's possible you may need a new sim card, but they will let you know if it failed to reset by them.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jhr5474:
So I went back to stock and talked to verizon, they said there was no problem they could see but my switch wasn't working and the best he could say was that I should go get a new sim card thinking The new OTA had the radio in it that would allow me to make calls or maybe the bootchain would fix something I flashed it. NO, still text and data no calls and now I am on the new OTA locked! Anyways, went to verizon got a new card, everything lists right in phone status, I did notice before the new card that my phone number had changed to a weird ooooooo9 or something however I could text my google voice and it came up as my number. Well, I am stuck I am not sure if it is time for a new board or what to do?

Verizon, did their litlle provision thing and it still didn't make it work, I have never not been able to fix a phone that turns on and sends texts and has data but this one might have me beat. Verizon said their is no way to fix it. Then again the people at the corporate store have no idea of what ODIN is either so yeah, that says it all right there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jhr5474:
Problem solved!

I replaced my board, and guess what I have 4.1.2 rooted now:) I am experiencing an issue with the power button on this board though. For some reason it is VERY touchy. So I have rooted it but I need to figure out which recovery the power button does not effect. Not sure how I will fix the power button issue it's like the switch on the board is faulty and it is super touchy might just take the button out! At least I can make calls now and I am back to root.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buhohitr:
Seems like your power button is on its way out. Are you technical enough to replace the power button which can purchase from Ebay for a few bucks? Bad power button is like you lost your right hand!

STOP OTA UPDATE and NOTIFICATION

If the OTA already downloaded, delete it here /cache/fota

To disable the OTA:

Rename or freeze the apps with Titanium backup:

Rename fwupdate.odex, fwupdate.apk located in /system/app

and freeze SDM1.0 located in /system/app

What is the most recommend screen protector? Or glass protector...opinions please. ...im thinking about the zagg hd
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] xile6:
Tons of threads about screen protectors.

Check those out.

i always go with a clear protect from ebay. I end up getting 6 for like $5 and i change them out if they get scathed or starts to not look clear.

Normally i can go about 6months without a problem. Other times its been a yr.

The never used a glass protector before but i have heard that some of them are very hard to get off and then its still glass so it can scratch. While others will loose there glue and come off.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] dr.m0x:
Illome flex. No problems with the glue though I haven't needed to take it off. Yeah it can scratch but it's much harder to scratch than a plastic protector. You can't even begin to compare to clarity and feel of a plastic protector to glass either.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] DLCPhoto:
I like the Verizon TPU Holster/Case, and so wanted as thin a protector as possible. It's a little on the pricey side, but I went with the 'Just Like Glass Nano' and am extremely pleased with it. Just as thin as a plastic screen protector, but with the clarity and smooth surface texture of glass. Gives me the best of both worlds.
