[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] techno-np:
Hey guyz after watching the Note 3 and new Samsung devices I noticed that they all have this new multiwindow style which really looks cool . Only a single line and a small dot like shape in the middle really does save screen space for real multitasking !!

My request is can any one port this cool new multiwindow for our beloved S3 !!???

ya it looks like moto g + grip shell

so does this mean that our phone is not durable without the grip shell???
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pisherthefisher:
This phone is pretty damn durable, I've dropped it countless times with the regular shell and the screen still perfect.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zazzy24:
Though that is comforting to hear, i notice that yours is a US version of the phone. In the Indian dual sim version, they have used some cheap components unlike the US version, like having some **** co. manufactured memory instead of the samsung one used in the US version. So not sure how it would hold up in the long run!

Even i have managed to drop the phone a couple of times, but I am using a azmer hybrid case for protection. It does screw up the phones amazing looks, but hopefully provides some much needed durability. As they say, better be safe than sorry!
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pisherthefisher:
I wasn't aware of this. You should get yourself a grip shell in that case, it's a little expensive for an accessory but it does make the back more durable and also prevents the phones screen from shatters or scratches when falling flat on the ground.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zazzy24:
The case i am using is kinda like a grip shell but claims to be sturdier than a grip shell! It does add a lot of bulk and weight to the phone though :(

Hello guys.

I bought this phone from the chinese.

It has a nice ROM in it, but I found out it doesn't detect the compass/orientation sensor.

When I use GPS,the arrow goes crazy, because of that.

I think it might be the ROM they gave me to flash.

The ROM is nice and all, 4.0.4, sweet colors and stuff, but I would really like to use the compass.

And other thing, the phone can't run Antutu Benchmark, gives error and quits. Don't know why.

Maybe, 889s ROMs work with 889m?

889m specs

889s specs

So, here's the call.

Thanks

The new Galaxy s5 in some apk files there are some new files with extention .pkm instead of .png ...

So i was wondering if there is a tool for Windows to convert .pkm files to .png files and vise versa...

Cause if we can not convert the pkm files to pngs, how we will make Themes??????

In a little research i made in the internet i found out that .pkm files are also image files but with smaller size than pngs...

So if all companies switch to that pkm files we must find a way to continue Theming right??? So if anyone knows a solution please report here...

Thanks ....

Then when install is done, go to <mali install folder>/bin

Then:

<input.pkm> is your pkm file to unpack and <outputdir> is your folder where the unpacked png will go

Ok i tried it but when i save the .pkm files as .png files, it doesn't keep trasparency (it puts black background)... So it's impossible to work with these pngs... Also there is no batch proccess of converting the pkm files... This is also a big problem for Themers... Imagine that in every Theme of mine i change thousands of the icons... So it will take me years to convert one by one the .pkm files...

So we need a tool that can make batch convertion of the .pkm files, WITHOUT loosing transparency, to png files... And then when we finish editing/changing the png files created, to batch convert them again in pkm files, to replace the original ones...

Only if there is such a solution we will be able to theme the new pkm files...

if I leave them in png then, while flashing my themes (i use VRTheme engine) the pkms won't be replaced (if I don't have changed pkms inside my flashing zip) and you will see no UI changes..

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] titooo7:
If you need a batch file to convert from .pkm to png I can make one for you in less than 5 minutes.

But probably more than half of the pkm files won't be converted because what we actually need is some software that let us convert any kind of pkm files to png.

For now me and some friends can convert some pkm files but not all of them...

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikeymopar:
The AndroidSDK command line tool works for encoding and decoding your own images but doesn't decode a lot of the existing Android .pkm images. The error returned is bad header PKM Header.

Those same existing images won't decode with the Mali Tool either. (conversely, any png images I encode to .pkm will decode properly)

Trying to figure out why some existing ones won't decode using either approach. Gonna try updating the SDK stuff when I get to my office tomorrow to see if it helps.

Be nice if someone has/gets a solution. :good:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] titooo7:
Yeah. If you open a "good" pkm (the ones that can be converted) and a "bad" ones with an hexadecimal editor you will see that the bad ones have IPT0 in the header. So that's the reason why we can't convert it. It looks like it's not a conventional pkm file or at least not the pkm file we would expect :/
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aureljared:
The Google Code page for it (containing .pkm wiki and grafx2 downloads) is found here

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kalagas:
ANyone knows if will delete the .pkm files inside the apks and put .png files with the same names as the .pkm files had, will do the job???

Or it's neccesary the icon files to be pkm?

Cause if the apks using pkm files, will recognize png files with same name, it's easier. The only problem is that we will not know the dimentions of pkm files...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slink_59:
We can know the dimensions of the pngs to create, open the pkm in a hexadecimal editor like notepad++, see the header:

8 Columns of 4 Numbers each

-The Third Column is the width size in hexadecimal

-The Fourth Column is the height size hexadecimal

Example :

Here the width is 60 so 0x60(Hexadecimal) = 96 (décimal)

Here the height is also 60 so 0x60(Hexadecimal) = 96 (décimal)

The PNG should be a 96x96 icon (or picture)

Do not bump threads after 6 hrs. Once after 24 hrs only. This isn't your personal tech support hotline.

Besides, this is basic stuff; if Samfirmware, AndroidFirmwares.net or Samsung-Updates.com don't have the stock rom in question, you're out of luck. Choose another.

Once you're back to GB & how to install CM7, read the CM7 thread & follow the instructions, again basic stuff. Obviously you'll need to root your phone again first, root methods for GB are easily found by searching like everything else you've asked.
