[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Wooaarr:
I basicly used common sense.

Let me give you some examples:

Removed Keyboard.apk -> libjni_latinime.so

Removed DSP-Manager -> libcyanogen-dsp.so

No OTA-Updates for our device -> backuptool.sh

No Boot-animation -> /bin/bootanimation

..... and so on.

I'm sure there is still more to remove, but i didn't find anything about that on the internet.

For example I think lights.msm7k.so is used for LED's, since this device doesn't have a LED, it would be useless. But I still need to confirm the exact use of lights.msm7k.so...
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] TechBurner:
Must have taken a lot of time and patience. Thumbs up!
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] harleylla:
use common sense but unsure of something....., :eek::eek:
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Wooaarr:
If I was in doubt I left it in there. You are more than welcome to share what you know and help everyone...
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] smolny2:
In hacker's keyboard, mysteriously all alternative layouts vanished - the choice of "Input languages" was still there, but no choice changed the available characters.

Reinstallation of the hackerskeyboard-v1037.apk made it back to normal.

It's the 18.05. version + brightness zip.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] antanisv:
Why am I not able to flash this rom? It always sticks on samsung logo and then boot loops.........I even tried by formatting system......but no luck.......in fact, in all the older versions also I faced the same problem..........

Anybody can throw some light on this as to what could be the reason and the solution too?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Wooaarr:
I removed all languages from Hackers keyboard as well. My idea was, that everyone just uses this keyboard just as a start, because most people do use Swype, Swiftkey, TouchPal, etc.

If you want to use the proper Hackers keyboard, yes you would have to redownload it.

May I ask which recovery you use and which Rom you are currently using?

Also keep in mind that some Roms, gapps and superuser apps have an OTA survival mode, which could interfere with Rom flashing. Usually formatting /system should solve this. (Maybe even /data?)

I would recommend using cwm 5.0.2.8. as this one works just flawless.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] antanisv:
I am using recovery 5.2.0.8 and the rom is void Tom based on 7.2
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Wooaarr:
To be honest, I really don't know why it does not work for you.

Some things that do come to my mind are.

Did you change the zip in any way?

Do you have a broken zip, so an incomplete download?

If nothing helps, the only thing coming to my mind are

Flashing a other Rom first

Flash stock Rom via oding, then cwm, then my Rom

Sorry for the troubles, but if you manage to grab a logcat, I might find your issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] antanisv:
Oh that will be too lengthy a process. Never mind I will try once more. Thanks for your valuable advice.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] malwarebyte:
i cant seem to find root whitelist in /system/etc/dsc.su_list, how do i grant root ?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Wooaarr:
Sorry again for your troubles :(

I really don't know what is going on there, as it seems to work fine for most people.

Root will be granted by default to any app. I used the insecure version of it, not the one where you can actually whitelist apps.

Are you having trouble with a particular root app? If so you might want to install SuperSU from the market and update the SU-binary. This will completely replace SimpleSU with SuperSU.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] antanisv:
The problem could be becaused of broken zip........?? I will have to find that out.......let's see, I will revert back on this.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Wooaarr:
It just means that you did not download the full zip, maybe your download stopped before it was actually finished. Simply re-downloading usually fixes this.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] malwarebyte:
nope dont have any problems, didnt know that it auto grants...

i tought i needed to whitelist app, but as it seems i just needed to restart phone, everything is fine
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Mohamed Yaser:
i like that rom and i will try to implement all languages
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] helderfp:
that would be great, i've installed other rom just because the only language on this rom is english.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Venkatesh:
Use "more locale" app from playstore.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] helderfp:
i've tried and does not work, only some parts changed to my country language. and to have a system part english part portuguese i prefered change rom
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Mohamed Yaser:
for me i implemented Languages specially arabic FULLY in many roms Based on stock,cm,aosp so i Know what to do ..

Just i got a time proplem (No time)

as I Have exams after two days:mad:
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] jayOOMjay:
Use Test your ROM zip to test the integrity of your rom

edit : wrong quote, I meant that to antanisv
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Wooaarr:
Implementing the languages is not really hard. Decompile settings.apk and cmparts.apk, add the language folders from another decompiled Roms apks and most of your stuff will be in your language. The rest of the apps only contains little bits and pieces here and there.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] smolny2:
Well, I had Polish characters after fresh installation of your ROM. That's why I called its disapperance "mystery" :)

Then I reinstalled hackerskeyboard.

After couple of days, it reverted itself to English as the only input method - even though only Polish is still marked.

In fact, the characters are that of English keyboard regardless of the input language I select.

Again, reinstallation of hackerskeyboard makes it back to normal.

Not a big deal, I can reinstall HK every few days, but am just curious aboust the cause of such behaviour?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Wooaarr:
Well that is not just a mystery to you, but me as well ;)

Did you uninstall it properly, or just deleted the apk? There might be something left of the old app. SdMaid is a good tool to take care of such problems.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] antanisv:
Finally i was able to flash the rom and its perfect....thanks to jayOOmjay and the OP of course in helping me to resolve my problem. Now how do I get rid of these annoying game ads pop ups that appear too frequently? I have tried adfree and adaway but they don't seem to help. Any help in this?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Wooaarr:
As I don't play much games, I can't give you any definitive advice. I use adfree and it works just fine for me.

I know there used to be an xposed module, which is now discontinued, called minguard (or something similar), which worked great.

Disconnecting from the internet, or restricting internet access via afwall or lbe works for some games as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] antanisv:
Neither do I play much games on the phone. But the problem still persists. Well minminguard of xposed module works only on android ics and above ....
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Wooaarr:
This is not true, I remember MinMinGuard working quite well on my phone ;)

It also appears that MinMinGuard is continued in some way. Just have a look here...

You can find the whole thread here...
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] smolny2:
No, I didn't uninstall the keyboard - just reinstalled it over the previous one (so the Polish was still marked as the input language after reinstallation). As the Polish characters are gone again, have just given a chance the SDMaid to uninstall the keyboard. In a few days I shall know if that makes any difference (in this case I mean :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] ohnonot:
thanks wooaarr for this nice rom - a godsent.

question about hosts: can the system handle such a large hosts file?

doesn't it become outdated quickly? so the idea is to manually update it?

any recommends on that, is the list specialised for android phones?

is it possible to further de-googlify and minimise? i don't use the play store or any google services at all, could i just remove these:

google calendar sync
google contacts sync
google partner setup
google play services
google play store
google services framework
com.android.provision
DRM protected content sorage
pico tts
tts service
fm radio

is this rom somehow "more GPL" than cyanogenmod itself, or why did you add that to the thread title?

there's no criticism anywhere here, only appreciation! i'm just inquisitive.

bikeshed:

any themes recommendations (flat and minimal and working properly on mini/ldpi)?

edit: oh, i just noticed that you included gapps... so can i just remove everything that starts with google...?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Wooaarr:
I never had any troubles with large host files. I know that Crossbreeder used a different, dynamic method. Honestly, my approach was always "Why complicate things?". The hosts file is working perfectly and I for one, cannot find any difference in terms of speed...

I used Adfree from BigTinCan to update the hosts file.

Of course, everything that contains a Google in it's name is safe to remove. Have a look at this.

Nah it is not. I remember a time when the moderators wanted the GPL in the thread title. I didn't want to bother with any of the license stuff, so I just included it...

No harm done mate ;)

I always used plain CyanogenMod, so I can't really help you there, sorry.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] ohnonot:
this one i suppose.

i will check it out.

i think the best (least resource-hungry) would be to update the hosts file only manually. those ad-spammers are inventing new domains all the time, but there's no need to run a daemon for that.

thanks.

took me a while to realise i had to install another app to remove system apps.

now i'm happy.

btw, this list you linked, does that mean that other (default install) apps are NOT safe to remove? there was a few that still caught my eye, e.g. that drm-content thing...
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Wooaarr:
You can disable the auto update function in adfree, that's what I did. This way it will not run, unless you want to update the hosts file.

Theoretically you can delete nearly every .apk in /system, but like I wrote, you will need some for a functional phone. Take systemui.apk for example. It is fine to remove, but you will lose the statusbar. But this doesn't render your phone useless.

Same is true for most of the other apps.

Deleting the drm related apk will stop you from using any drm protected content. If you don't need it, delete it :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] rhonalddean:
Im using your ROM for daily use for almost 5months now, is there any way to change the soft button design?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Wooaarr:
I just enabled the included CM 7.2 soft buttons. I don't know if there is a navigation bar mod ala ICS for CyanogenMod 7.2.

A different alternative for you might be Button Saviour or a similar app. You can find it on the Playstore.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] vixonitas:
I just log in only to say THANKYOU. I've been using this ROM almost 6 month.. And this is what I need. :good:

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Joe Hanson:
Guide Me Please

[MENTION=4663907]Wooaarr[/MENTION] Can you tell me a pc application on how to deodex any CM7.2 rom?

I try to use Universal Deodexer Tool V5 & Deodexer - Odexer Tool, but result nothing :rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Wooaarr:
I always used VirtuousTenStudio when I working with apk's. It definitely can deodex apk's, but I'm not sure if it has a batch option as well.

Anyway it should get you started.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Joe Hanson:
[MENTION=4663907]Wooaarr[/MENTION] Sorry for asking here, did your kernel is init.d support? Cause last time I flashed

Fly-On Mod, it'll cause bootloop :confused: thanks in advanced
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Wooaarr:
Yes, of course it does support init.d.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] beowolf:
I updated the rom yesterday and now I am having problems connecting to the internet. SMS messages are ok and the phone but when I try to access the internet I get an error saying that there is a problem with my connection.

I had no problem using the internet with the custom 2.24 rom. Can I go back to it? Or am I stuck with 2.26?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] kyphur:
You really need to provide more info like carrier and the settings you are using.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] beowolf:
Sorry,

I am using T-mobile and I use wap.voicestream.com.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] kyphur:
Sorry, I'm on Cingular, can't help but now maybe someone else can...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] markgamber:
If you don't have the full internet package, are you sure you entered the proxy information and if so, correctly? If you ARE subscribed to the full internet package, try internet2.voicestream.com and see if you make out any better.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dkb218:
Where would you enter "internet2.voicestream.com"? I've never used it and haven't had any trouble getting on the net. However, I just attempted to use it as a proxy and couldn't access anything...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] eViL D::
From what i've been told by Tmobile, is "t-zones" cannot be used to access HTTP (although it can work, but it is a hit and miss). You need to purchase a full fledged Tmobile internet plan to get full access. You would change the settings by going to settings and then connections, connections again and click advanced. Select the network and click edit twice. Make sure the "select a modem" is cellular line *GPRS* and click next. This is where you would change your APN (access point). If it says wap.voicestream.com, change it to internet2.voicestream.com. Now click next and finish and yes to verify.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tharealmb:
Currently my Xperia Z stopped working. I hadn't used it in a while, since the connector broke off. I got the connector fixed, and the phone seems to function, but it wont boot.

It boots to the SONY logo, and then goes black. The thing i have tried:

- Flash stock rom using Flashtool, i keep getting this:

Then i tried using Fastboot to install a new boot.img, which is succesfull

Flashing kernel

OKAY [ 0.355s]
writing 'boot'...

Done !
Press any key to continue . . .

I'm able to get into Fastboot and Flashmode so the USB seems to work fine. After using fastboot i got a litte further, now it boots to SONY, then i get "the software update failed, make sure that your phone is connected to the computer and try again."

I tried using EMMA, but i have no idea what to do there. It keeps "updating the services"

Preparing service...
...service successfully prepared.
Sending data to the device...
...data sent successfully.
Finalizing service...

I also tried PC Companion which complains that i use unofficial software.

Anyone has any idea what else i can do?

[Nokia Lumia 1020] LevanG:
hello,

Can someone tell me how to unlock AT&T NOKIA LUMIA 1020 which has a bad IMEI number?

I want to use it in my country (not in USA)

is it possible?

thanks in advance
[Nokia Lumia 1020] jonaspaz07:
Unlock??

Could you unlock it?? Im in the same process as someone sold me a blacklisted IMEI phone :(
[Nokia Lumia 1020] LevanG:
I have bought unlock code on eBay and it worked :) but I'm not sure that my phone was really blacklisted.

it takes up to 25 days from order and there is no 100% guarantee that it will work for you too, but it's worth to try :)

you can contact this seller :)

maybe they can help you. and I assume that you don't want to use it in USA :D
[Nokia Lumia 1020] DmPanther:
if the phone has bad IMEI at this point the unlock is impossible
[Samsung Gear 2 Neo] flipq88:
Starting a thread so people can show off watchbands on their neo. I'm still looking for one so it be nice if some people posted pics of theirs. Go.
[Samsung Gear 2 Neo] admiral70:
I wonder how many will replace the band? I am considering it wondering if the OEM bad will stretch a little over time?
[Samsung Gear 2 Neo] JimSmith94:
My watch has been shipped but I haven't received it yet. The stock band is too small for my wrist so I'll either have to replace it or do the "baseball cap mod" to the stock one.
[Samsung Gear 2 Neo] wayfr-v2.0:
I replaced mine immediately with a $8 band from Walmart. It's the black nylon with a Velcro closure, no stupid lettering.I think the part that the watch attaches to is made of lycra. Not sure, but it is stretchy enough to allow for the charger to be installed between the watch and the band. Came with new pins. Buy the size that says 16-20mm. It is so much better looking and way more comfortable than the stock band.
[Samsung Gear 2 Neo] markbc01:
Here is my replacement band. I think the original is nice, but this is something different. It's just a bit more loose and comfortable.

Amazon "Steel and rubber bracelet for the luminox 3100 series dive watches " for 39.95 plus tax.

It has a solid, but not heavy feel. For me it's OK.

However, to present another view, my wife does NOTlike it; since there is no steel/silver in the watch body. She thinks that the band doesn't quite work.
[Samsung Gear 2 Neo] jongilluley:
Here's my nato style strap....

Had to cut and seal a space out of it to use the heart rate sensor but was easy and cost £3 off eBay. ...
[Samsung Gear 2 Neo] JimSmith94:
Does the heart rate sensor really work with that gap between it and your skin? There are posts about people having trouble getting it to work with full contact.
[Samsung Gear 2 Neo] rEVOLVE:
A couple of metal bands I ordered from eBay:

I prefer mesh style bands lately. This one I liked because the links are more pronounced and chunky so it goes more with the size of the watch. It's like black chainmail and more rugged looking without going overboard in size.

I am currently using this one more because I like the "lighter" feel of it. Very similar to the bands on Skagen watches I've owned.

***You should note that the Spigen sticker protector is peeling off at the corners nearest the bezel after only a few days of application!!! I've done quite a few of these installs on other devices, so I know it was installed properly, just seems that those corners are hard for it to stick to. I will write them and see if I can get another set, and if those also do the same thing, I won't recommend this product. Sort of puts me at a disadvantage because I am nervous of the rubbery coating wearing off eventually.
[Samsung Gear 2 Neo] dorrien12:
Here are my bands..
[Samsung Gear 2 Neo] dorrien12:
My watch band collection thus far; Silver stainless steel band, Red/Black 2 Piece Nato band, Black leather band & a Rubber Silicon band.
[Samsung Gear 2 Neo] opdrago:
i cant understand people that ugly their watches with redicioules covers.

put the watch in a foam box all day it make sure you'll have no scratches.
[Samsung Gear 2 Neo] jillora:
I really like this turquoise one I got off Amazon. It came with the pins to attach it to the watch. Only problem is that the leather is a bit stiff. Still, I much prefer it to the stock watch band.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0067U2X7U/ref=oh_details_o01_s01_i03?ie=UTF8&psc=1

This is my first time trying to attach thumbnails, so I hope it works.
[Samsung Gear 2 Neo] JimSmith94:
Looks nice! Did that come with the slots already cut out for the Gear pin "levers" or did you cut them out yourself?
[Samsung Gear 2 Neo] jillora:
It actually came with the quality pins already installed, it was super quick to remove the old strap and install the new one. Like 5 seconds. Maybe :) I'd definitely buy from the seller/brand again. Much better looking than any I saw at Walmart.
[Samsung Gear 2 Neo] peaster3:
I really like both of those bands you have. Can you tell us who the ebay sellers are? Thanks.
[Samsung Gear 2 Neo] rEVOLVE:
I found the seller link - Here you go!

http://www.ebay.com/sch/hklovestore/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_ipg=&_from=
[Samsung Gear 2 Neo] flipq88:
That first stainless steel band you showed, how is it? Does it feel like good quality. Also, did it come with the pins and was it easy to change the band?
[Samsung Gear 2 Neo] rEVOLVE:
Yes, it came with pins and so far I like the fitment and quality. Mesh bands are designed to be very light, so expect that it's not going to "feel" heavy especially if you relate weight to quality. It is heavier feeling than the finer mesh one, though. I expect that eventually the black anodizing will wear/rub off like all of these dark/black metal items I've purchased before. Time will only tell how quickly this happens.
[Samsung Gear 2 Neo] riazabzal:
I like that leather strap. Can you please share where and for how much you bought that one? Thanks.
[Samsung Gear 2 Neo] dorrien12:
I actually found it at Walmart, it was either $9 or $14.
