Ill tell u step by step what I do:

1. Recovery to adb sideload on phone

2. Move ROM to c:\android where fastboot and adb are located

3. Run cmd

4. cd c:\android

5. Adb sideload "ROM name"

6. I get the error
[HTC One X+] XAlexander_AlexanderX:
Adb is located in platform tools. Put Rom there and CD cmd there and run the command.
[HTC One X+] Ghand0ur:
open platform-tools(or the folder where adb is found) shift + right click on any empty space, you will find "open command prompt here" press on it, then type ADB devices, if it is read, simply type " adb sideload " then drag and drop the rom zip into the command prompt. it will automatically write its location and prevent the spelling mistakes.

IF: ADB devices can't read your device try the following:

1-Try another usb port, if you tried 2.0 then try 3.0 and vice versa.

2- If you are on windows vista or above, open start menu and search for cmd, right click on it and run as administrator, however you will have to cd to the platform tools location, " cd C:\Android\sdk\platform-tools " then you type in adb devices should read your device fine now. however running cmd as admin prevents the drag and drop technique (atleast here on windows 8.1 it does) so you have to type in the location of your rom and rom name correctly, and dont forget the .zip

Ok great thanks it worked! Question: can u flash a custom kernel that's not in the same and ROM? I got viper ROM and everything is slow and I'm trying to make it fast
[HTC One X+] Ghand0ur:
Since we have the stupid s-on, your choice of custom kernels is very limited and they make almost no difference, if you are on viper rom which is sense based, you can use the stock kernel (I THINK<<< Not sure) or insertcoin kernel's , but no they don't make any difference as far as i know. Try and see

Hello, and I've already used the "4.3 10.4.1.B.0.101 Central Europe 1. + ROOT" + the "stripped.ftf" and the truth is that it works very well, but what I ask and I would love be answered is whether, between the amount of Chinese and non-Chinese who get apk to root Android 4.2.2, enabling root Android 4.3 such as the 4.3 10.4.1.B.0.101 sgp321.

[Windows Phone 8s by HTC] kowsar:
I would say HTC 8S is really a smart looking phone, but the major problem is apps can't be installed is the SD card where the phone has only 2GB internal memory where most surprisingly the operating system almost grasp all the space so that only 5/6 apps can be installed in this phone.

Can any developer or user can share a solution to overcome this f..king circumstance?

More importantly, I have seen there are few HTC windows phone has the facility to upgrade it operating system into Android. Does this facility applicable for HTC 8S????? If this can be possible please I request someone to come forward to share the procedures.

Regards,

Kowsar
[Windows Phone 8s by HTC] charlatan1978:
Hi, when windows phone 8.1 comes out (assuming it is released for the HTC 8S) there will be the option to install apps to the SD card.

The developer preview will hopefully be available to download in April sometime, but this isn't for definite.

So it is worth you waiting for another month to see if this helps with your phone.

As far as upgrading to Android, I am not aware of any windows 8 phones that this can be done with.

hi i have htc 8s and the windows 8.1 is not available ,how can i install aps on sd card?
[Windows Phone 8s by HTC] tech virus:
for your kind info, none of the Windows phone can be changed to android...coz, android hardware config differ from Windows !

try installing any third party apps to move apps to sd card :)

hit thanks if this helped :)

WP 8.1 on HTC8S

Hi, have you installed the preview for developers?

You can only install apps on the sd card running wp8.1 (not wp8).
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] baniaczek:
This can be valuable for ROM makers only ;)

Bored with welcome screen? Let's play with HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Welcome

Create Key HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Welcome,

create DWORD value Disable, set some values

execute \windows\welcome.exe

and look at the screen names, which

doesn't

appear

FFFF FF7F - disable everything except 'email setup' screen [WM5 only AKU 3.x]

FFFF FFBF - disable everything except 'password' screen [WM5 only]

FFFF FFDF - disable everything except 'complete' screen and the finishing tap

FFFF FFEF - disable everything except 'location' screen

FFFF FFF7 - disable everything except 'pop-up menus' screen

FFFF FFFB - disable everything except 'stylus' screen

FFFF FFFD - disable everything except 'align' screen

FFFF FFFE - disable everything except tap on the first screen [ignored if any other bit is cleared, the only difference is between FFFF FFFE and FFFF FFFF]

FFFF FFFF - disable everything [displays first 'splash' screen and exits]

Other bits - probably reserved for the future [look at the order of the things above]

There is another value: SystemStart - I have no idea what does it mean

There is another key Software\Microsoft\Shell\Event\Welcome - I have no idea what does it mean

There are references to the files "\Storage Card\Welcome.Not" "welcome.Not" - I have no idea.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] shugoh:
Great work!

Thank you.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Asukal:
oh!

that is great!

i used another way to delete this entry from inflashfiles.dat and inboj.dat

Directory("\Windows\StartUp"):-File("Welcome.lnk","\Windows\welcome.lnk")

but yours better :o :o

and the others tpics,

if just replacing shellres.dll.xxx.mui on RAM

welcome will be come evry boot.

<mainly i used this for testing to make shellress.mui instantly>

i made one cab it can del the welcome.lnk from StartUP folder.

but after hard rest, welcome will come again,

(this is another topic..sorry)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nottoosmart:
Ok, so i know this post is old and probably out of sight and mind. But I have an issue. This key does not exist in my registry and I only get the alignment and password setup screens. I want the whole thing enabled. Please help a brother out.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] luv2chill:
FYI, the welcome.not thing skips the entire wizard. We used to use this in the WM2003 days (back then you couldn't skip the stupid Dr's Appointment tutorial). It was handy if you store your touchscreen alignment in the extrom.

You just create a blank text file called welcome.not and put it on the root of your storage card (won't work in extrom, naturally). Then do a hard reset with the card inserted and it will skip the welcome wizard entirely. If you hard reset without the card inserted, the welcome wizard will proceed as normal.

However, the registry entries are far better than that method. Good find!!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] trueg:
I just wanted to make a little update to this thread for anyone using this information to skip various screens during welcome.

Only the last 8 bits are actually used to select/de-select subroutines when running welcome (at least for WM 6.1).

7F - disable everything except 'email setup' screen [WM5 only AKU 3.x]

BF - disable everything except 'password' screen [WM5 only]

DF - disable everything except 'complete' screen and the finishing tap

EF - disable everything except 'location' screen

F7 - disable everything except 'pop-up menus' screen

FB - disable everything except 'stylus' screen

FD - disable everything except 'align' screen

FE - disable everything except tap on the first screen

FF - disable everything [displays first 'splash' screen and exits]

For my ROM, I wanted to run welcome with align, location & complete screen.

1111 1101 (FD) - align screen

1110 1111 (EF) - location screen

1101 1111 (DF) - complete screen

---------------

1100 1101 (CD) or 205

ends up being....

<wap-provisioningdoc>
<!--334.05_Welcome-->
<characteristic type="Registry">
<characteristic type="HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Welcome">
<parm name="Disable" datatype="integer" value="205" />
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</wap-provisioningdoc>
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] irus:
also if you want to skip everying just put the file welcome.not in the root of the storage card. **.not is the file extension ;) **
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] trueg:
Yes indeed, but make sure you apply the alignment settings by another means (provxml, cab, etc). I just spent a few days trying to figure out why endkey.exe was not working in the most recent version of my ROM (I use it to switch between vibrate/ring on long end key press). Turns out that if you don't do the align and you don't apply the settings some other way, endkey.exe does not work when you do a long press of the end key (at least on my Touch Pro).
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] adwinp:
I'm reviving this old thread since I'm running into an issue.

I usually disable everything in my ROM, thus:

Disable=dword:ff (or ffffffff)

After customization though, I need to tap on the taskbar to lauch the home screen. Otherwise, it just stays on the welcome splash.

Any ideas?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] chrisd1a1:
just bumping this up as i'd really appreciate an assist.

i've been trying to change the first boot in my 6.5.x build rom.

all i want is the 'allign screen' working

the current entry is

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Welcome]

"Disable" = dword:00000080

i may be thick but i'm really having trouble getting my head round this. i've tried

"Disable" = dword:FD

"Disable" = dword:1111 1101

"Disable" = dword:FFFF FFFD

which are all from this thread but none of these are working.

does anyone know what the entry actually is for 6.5.x? and if so i'd be grateful if someone could help.

many thanks in advance

this is doing my head in. i'd appreciate any other ideas???

many thanks to anyone who may be able to help

Chris
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] RoryB:
Check the registry after you flash and the ROM is finished setting up. Does it read the values you set? Maybe there is another provxml or rgu setting it to a wrong value.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] chrisd1a1:
looks like you guys are right about something messing with this.

i set it to FC as advised but when i checked the reg on the build it's showing AC. i'm going to try a variation to see what happens..

i really appreciate the advice, just wish i could figure the fix:(

thanks for the help i appreciate it

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] cruiserrr:
What are you using for building the rom? I am pretty familiar with Ervius Visual Kitchen and it is quite straigth forward to use the search tool. Even if you use another kitchen you can download evk, put your files in the ext folder and do the search. Good luck!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] trueg:
I find Agent Ransack is a handy tool for searching the contents of files.

As a test you can set the registry the way you like and then run welcome.exe to see if the behaviour is the way you expect.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Staxxthedan:
Dude I use EVK, had same issues. Just make sure you put add more zzzzz...to the EXT package containing the tweak and make sure it runs as close as possible at the end of Building ROM. You can dump one in OEM in zzzzz and another in EXT in zzzz and see if yuo won't nail this baby...:D:)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] chrisd1a1:
issue fixed

Hi Folks

i've fixed it!!!!

trial and error found the other entry. as well as the RGU i've had to ammend the 0409\OperatorPkg\mxiupdate_operator_100.provxml file as there is also a welcome entry. it was causing a conflict in the build.

many thanks to everyone who helped me with this and i hope the solution helps others

thanks again

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] rookietech:
i opened a thread on this:

Ok here is the low down.

I have been able to disable the alignment screen and setup screen on my PPT8800 (which is using WM2003).

I also was able to copy the "alignment" settings from the registry and copied them into the application folder and platform folder.

When I do a cold boot though, the alignment settings, don't go into effect. The only way I get the screen to respond properly to is to perform a soft boot. I even checked the registry after the coldboot (through my remote program) and the settings showed up, but the screen would not respond to the settings.

Also, one time I did a cold boot, pressed function 6 and brought up the alignment screen. But because my battery was running low, the notification announcement about the battery life, closed the alignment screen. After the screen closed (and I didn't even perform the alignment) the reg settings went into effect.

Any suggestions? I was thinking of trying to write a script that says: perform a soft boot after cold boot. But I don't know how to write that, and apply it to the device. I know how to write basic scripts and commands.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] RoryB:
I cannot find it right now, but there is a registry value that gets changed after you run the screen alignment at welcome. I have seen somewhere in this forum that talks about what to set to get screen aligned using provxml or something like that.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] rookietech:
the alignment settings were exported from [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\TOUCH]

and I saved it to both application folder and platform.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] cruiserrr:
Remember to store also "pressure" settings, calibration screen stores both the alignment settings and the pressure settings.

Hi,

We are a lot to search for a solution to root our S4 mini with the firmware XXUBML4.

As far as I know, there are actually 2 solutions to root this phone without triggering Knox (but..) :

- Safe Root by [MENTION=3940199]k1mu[/MENTION] but does not work for that firmware...

- Kingo but we don't know if the company who owns it, steals or not information so use with caution...

Any other solution ??

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xozeus:
Still no solution?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vexorian:
Did you *try* safe root? If so post the output of the safe root script to see what's wrong.

But if safe root definitely doesn't work and you don't trust Klingo (and I don't think you should), then your only way to have root is to void your warranty. Maybe you should wait for a while, it may happen that someone will figure out a way to avoid the warranty bit issue in the coming months.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xozeus:
Yes safe root does not work and I didn't kept the log but the author of the script told that it does not work with this firmware..

Waiting or void warranty.. I quit apple world because it was too complicate and too long to get a jailbreak iPhone.. And now it's exactly the same thing whereas Android is free and open.. A shame!

Tried searching for this but can't seem to find anything similar. I did think it was down to this camera bug but I don't think it is...

Basically, in the last few days, my Nexus thinks the WiFi is on when I've not used it in weeks. This is based on the battery stats in the Settings menu. It's killing my battery, like 10% in less than an hour, and this is also the same on a fresh install of the factory image with now other apps installed.

Anyone know what's going on, or what to suggest?

In Safe Mode, all the Google apps/services are disabled?

Maybe some Google sorcery :confused:. I mean with the setting mentioned above disabled even with the Wi-Fi OFF you see it in the battery stats, so now maybe something related to Photos, G+ and so on?

I guess you verified, but just in case...

Gotta be something with this particular phone, funny it's only just started doing it...I'll keep digging
