:FAQs:​

Q: Wanna know about Aroma File manager?

Visit the aroma file manager main thread for more info---> Aroma file manager main thread

Aroma file manager is a touch file manager which can be used while in recovery. It has options for copy, paste, delete, change permissions and many others. Also, it has a Terminal inside. So, if you forgot to give correct permissions to any file you can do that directly from recovery. This file manager has got many themes, font, icons, etc. options and it's UI is fully customizable.

Q: How to start this File manager in Recovery?

Rename the downloaded file to 'aromafm.zip'.

Create a folder 'aromafm' inside 'Clockworkmod' folder on your sdcard.

Now, move that 'aromafm.zip' file to the 'aromafm' folder.

We're ready now, when you want to use it in recovery just double tap anywhere OR go to "philz Settings" and select "Aroma File Manager" and it will start up.

If you also want to browse /data, /system and /sd-ext then mount them in the "mounts & storage" option in recovery.

Q: Problems with Aroma file manager startup?

After doble-tapping OR selecting 'Aroma file Manager' option under 'philz settings' if recovery gives error: 'aromafm.zip not found at /clockworkmod/aromafm' then, wait for 4-5 seconds and again select 'Aroma file Manager', because it maybe busy mounting sdcard.

If still doesn't work, you've made mistakes in steps mentioned in first post, please do again carefully.

Q: Does your phone every time reboots to recovery?

This happens very rare when you flash the recovery using any bad app or via any wrong (not proper) method. What you can do is:

-If you've made a backup of your current ROM then just restore only it's "boot" and then select 'reboot to system'.

OR

-You don't have a backup? Then just flash the ROM which you are using currently again and wipe 'dalvik-cache'. Then reboot to system. Booting process will take time.

[MENTION=5165022]Bhargav97[/MENTION] you would like to compile TWRP for callisto.

Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] Bhargav97:
I would have done it until now but you wasted my enough time in PMs. You asked the same question in 3-4 PMs. And now, here. I already started work on TWRP for armv6 devices. I first did it for Galaxy Mini. Now, I'm making it stable. Once, it gets stable, I'll make it for other devices and the last would be your device. Because, I don't see many people using this Galaxy 551 and moreover you wasted my time in PMs, so...keep waiting
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] Bhargav97:

[MENTION=4141775]chraso[/MENTION] all hardware and virtual on screen keys working correctly and now virtual keys got transparent but philz touch background doesn't work.
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] steve8x8:
Any news? As the latest Callisto ROMs require a changed recovery (b/c of partition layout), these PhilZ recoveries won't work anymore, right?
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] Bhargav97:
I don't have a PC nowadays so I don't think there will be any updates (atleast for the time being). You can use CWM for flashing CM11 builds and PhilZ Recovery for older ROMs. Should be alright (?)

I think unpack-repack of kernel and fstab (replacing from latest CWM) might work but I'll need somebody's help that can unpack-repack in their PC.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] spkr4thdd:
Ok, so I've installed TuMa's 1.4 ROM and love it, I've also falshed Ivan's latest but it was just too 'clean' for my liking and some of the useful stuff in WM5 just wasn't there...

My only issue now is that I can't seem to get CallerID working? I have the camera and album updates installed and they both allow me the option to 'apply to contact' however if I select that option it errors saying 'Database Not Found'... If I try to add a picture to a contact in Pocket Informant it just does nothing... and my phone shows only numbers not pictures, even with the ETEN Dialler installed...

Could someone please point me in the direction of a CAB file which can sort this out (I don't want to use a 3rd party app!), or a WM5 ROM which inludes it as standard...

Slainté,

spkr4thdd
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] xplode:
CallerId will not work in any wm5 rom, why do you need it ? you can add a picture to any contact in WM5
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] spkr4thdd:
Not true with TuMa's 1.4 ROM... the Pictures & Video app is screwed and therefore when you click add to contact, or apply to contact or apply picture or whatever in the multitude of apps it blanks you... so I can't add a pic to any contact in WM5, even if I sync from a contact in Outlook with pic it throws up an error... so it just doesn't work in TuMa's build...

And you do need it, as if you use the camera to take a 'contact' picture and then select 'apply to contact' it wimps out saying CallerID is not installed!

I've just flashed Ivan's latest and 'Pictures & Video' works first time, as does the 'apply to contact' option... the problem with Ivan's is that it doesn't offer me the stereo headset profile for my BT headset which TuMa's did... or the 'contact' photo' option in camera... and I can only have either my handsfree or my gps linked, not both, which I could in 2003SE... but I'm sure I'll get a workaround to that... hopefully TuMa's much vaunted 1.5 will be the best of both world's :)

Cheers for your input though,

Slainté,

HI

I have tried so many ways to root my phone.

It seems that all the file related to Knox were deleted. I can run supersu, and I allowed some apps to have the root power, but none of the apps can really function as root. What can I do?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antique_sonic:
you never mentioned, which firmware you are in, what root method you are using.

:)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fliptechnologies:
goto settings > about > more

and see what status se for android is set to

if its enforcing you need to change it to permissive

there is a few apps in the market that can do this
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nghaiamo:
Thanks. Because I know not much on this field.

the se for android is set to "Enforcing SEPF_GT-7105_4.3_0018"

So I should first look for some apps that can change it to permissive?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nghaiamo:
I found that those apps need root permission, how can I change the se status without root?

I am into theming right now and have themed systemui.apk

and m ready to put that in my system.

there are 2 problems right now

1st is that when i recompile systemui using apktool it gives me warnings but builds the apk

even if i recompile it unchanged it gives some warnings

aapt: warning: string 'something' has no default translation in C:/Users/T3/apktool/ab/res; found:mk

there are numerous such lines. ab is directory where i have decompiled systemui.apk

2nd is that my rom is odexed and stock so on replacing systemui.apk it stops

so is there anyway i can put the systemui withoud deodexing my rom??

or some ppl have made flashable zips for systemui. Can someone teach me or give me a link where i can learn doing that??

or is there any way to deodex rom without usin odin and flashing??

Iknow I could have googled but i tried and found somethings related to linux and ubuntu but since im on windows

and here ppl are into theming i thought i could get some help here..

Thanx in Advance
[Samsung Galaxy Star] insomaniacdev:
Buddy... delete the systemui.odex and replace the stock systemui.apk with ur systemui.apk . N if u hv modded it correctly. Then it will work.

N

For making flashing zip.

Just add ur systemui.apk in meta inf folder in system/app/here paste it.

U can get Meta Inf folder by google or take it from any other flashing zip.

Don't forget to hit thanks :p
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkwoof:
Hi All,

I was using my phone normally about 2 days ago, then put it back into my loose shirt pocket. When I took it out a few minutes later, I realised that the phone was off. I turned it back on, and while it was on the "Samsung Galaxy S II" logo, I placed it back in my pocket to give it time to boot.

I kind forgot about it later, and when I took it out about half an hour later, I realised it was still on the same screen. Thinking that my phone has frozen, I tried to depress the power button for about 5-10 to shut it off, to no avail. I did a battery pull, replaced the battery but found that I was unable to boot the phone at all.

Thinking that maybe the battery is flat, I tried another 2 more original Samsung batteries that I had with me, both fully charged. Nothing worked. I even tried entering recovery and download modes to no avail. I also tried several other methods described in XDA including plugging in the battery while doing the keypress for download mode, both volume buttons while without a battery and sticking in a connected USB cable, and even my old USB jig. Nothing. No boot screen, nothing on the capacity buttons.

Oddly though, if I plugged in my battery and press and hold the power button for 5 seconds, then leave the phone aside for a while, I noticed that it gets warmer. If I pull the battery out, it cools down. So it seems like turning on the power does "something", but the phone wouldn't boot. Plugging it into to computer doesn't recognise it either. Neither can Odin 3 see it.

Is my phone truly dead? Or is there any possibility of fixing it?

Thanks.

Replace motherboard - Samsung service centre (expensive option), or source a 2nd hand board online & either replace yourself or pay a local mobile repair shop (not Samsung service centre) to do the replacement for you (cheaper option), or new phone.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkwoof:
So it sounds like a defective mainboard to you? Mm.. If so I'd probably go for the 2nd or third option. Already bought a new phone, but I do have 2 SIM cards (one issued at work without a phone) and I would like to be able to use my S2 (currently using and aging Motorola Q9H). Plus there's some data I had in the internal memory and the phone does have some sentimental value.

I'll go source for a board I guess... But the flash memory will be lost with a new board wouldn't it?

Thanks for the advice!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Given the majority of components that would cause a phone to simply die like that are located on the motherboard, that's the fix. As to what component(s) specifically died, nobody here could tell you that because we don't have the phone open in front of us with the gear to diagnose.

Some repairers in some countries have been flogging a 'we can just replace the individual component(s)' fix lately (as evidenced by people making threads here saying they've been offered these fixes), but this is a very tricky job that not even Samsung service centres attempt; basically, if you want it fixed guaranteed first time without the risk of potentially double paying (for the first fix that doesn't work), you replace the board.

Yes, you'll lose whatever data is in the NAND on the existing board, that's not really recoverable, but a company which specialises in recovery of data from dead HDD's may be able to help (I haven't seen a single thread on here in 2+ yrs where someone has been able to get this done though), expect this to be very expensive if it is possible.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkwoof:
I see...

Worth a shot I guess. Samsung's CSC aren't really an option here past warranty, and the professional recovery firms here charges sky-high rates. I'm looking at motherboard replacement guides for the i9100 for now, may look for a 3rd party repair shop if all else fails. Pity, it was a great little tool. I had it running on a smooth JellyBean 4.2.2 =\
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FPSUsername:
I had this exact problem, what my case was that the battery died completely.

I bought a new 1800mah battery and it works fine. I can't boot with the original old one anymore, it is 100% dead (still has some juice in it)

but if you can't use other batteries (that work with the s2), then I guess your nand is dead.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkwoof:
Damn. I have 3 working batteries, one was in the phone. Two fully charged, none worked. =(

Well the major problem that it has is the sd write issue

U can't use any other apps that require access to sd card except stock file manager

So no es file manager

You would have to root it to fix it

But if i rooted it, im going to miss future updates right?

Any other concerns about kit kat?

I have my doubts bout updating, thanks
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arnabbiswasalsodeep:
I don't know but you should get updates

Also if you don't get then you have many devs who will give you updates with custom roms like cyanogenmod
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gac3la:
thanks, im updating right now.

also i have read in some forums that the camera imprvements are not going to come in future updates, cuz are the "improvements" with z2, so it makes sense. i think i will have to root my z1 and install them. i saw them here in xda.

also i read that if i root my z1 i will lose my x reality engine, and i dont want that BUT i also read here on XDA that it can be installed as a APK.

thanks !
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Swiftflikk:
Hi there,

I'm having problems when trying to install a ROM through the 'install zip from sideload' feature in ClockworkMod 6.0.4.3. My Windows 8.1 PC can't recognize the device at all while in the sideload (Mounting USB storage works perfectly). The device doesn't show up when I type

adb devices

in the command prompt, even when I run it as an administrator. It can't be the recovery because I've tried downloading from different places and tried to flash about 3 times.

Is anyone else having this problem? Or has had this problem in the past but has solved it already?

Thanks in advance

i had the same issue, i fixed it by replacing "gps.*** " ummm, i dont exactly remember the name of file or the exact path, but you should be able to find it in system partition.

somewhere on these forums there is a list of different gps files for almost every country, find and download the one for your country or neighbor country.

just google for "replace gps file for fixing gps on android"

and find it
