Thanks...need more info.

Actually...I have hard reset my phone (after flashing with secsetting). Now when phone restarts, screen shows welcome screen and the 'language' selection section....when I want to proceed....setting crashed!

So, I can't open my phone...and cant use root file manager to delete SecSettings.apk.

Is there is any other way to do this?? Would you please send original secsetting file for repatch??

I have downloaded proper FW (G7102XXUBNG4_G7102ODDBNG4_INS) file...but when flash with Odin, It says...Auth (Fail).

My phone has CWM installed. I have used many versions of odin...not worked. What to Do?
[Galaxy Grand 2 Themes and Apps] WaseemAlkurdi:
First of all, you were supposed to delete the SecSettings

.odex

, not the apk.

WHAT?! NEVER FACTORY RESET A PHONE THIS WAY! THE WAY TO FIX IT WAS TO FLASH WITH ODIN! Anyway, usual suggestions: open package with winrar and check if it opens (even with some error message about a tar record). Then check by reflashing CWM or any other Grand 2 compatible Odin package. Use Odin 3.09, and the stock USB cable. Tell me if this doesn't help. In this case, I'm gonna make a really big sacrifice to get the sstock SecSettings.apk ..
[Galaxy Grand 2 Themes and Apps] sanjiban:
First of all, your "ThemedSettings.zip" is open/extracted successfully. there was no error....Reflushed CWM again with Odin 3.09 successfully. Wipe cache / Delvic etc via CWM menu...But no luck. Always 'Setting' crashed. I know my stock firmware is still ok...but phone not starting due to improper sim initialisation (setting crashed).

My phone is very new...and I am not a rich man...and don't want to loose my phone....please help.:crying:
[Galaxy Grand 2 Themes and Apps] balliboxer:
Did u flashed on Stock rom ?

Wots ur base buildnumber ?
[Galaxy Grand 2 Themes and Apps] sanjiban:
Pardon, I can't understand properly...yes, i flashed the zip file (copied to phone...then flashed with CWM) on my official Rom....which is recently officially updated to Kitkat. 4.4.x.

Where can I find base buildnumber ?

Anyway.. I have attached my phone in this state (previously attached pix) and kies saying something about firmware update....please see attached pix....you can also may find my build number etc.
[Galaxy Grand 2 Themes and Apps] kuldude:
Didn't work for me...

As per instructions I flashed it with CWM and cleared the cache and when i rebooted my device always error message coming unfortunately settings has stopped. .....
[Galaxy Grand 2 Themes and Apps] sanjiban:
Same problem as mine....what to do?? I want my phone back...any ways?

I am running a conversation with owner of this zip...he is very co-operative and you can see this thread...

If you find any way to cure your 'setting' working...please inform me.
[Galaxy Grand 2 Themes and Apps] amarstha:
Use aroma file manager. U can use it from cwm. Delete secsetting.odex. It will work if any other thing is not messed up.

(i m not the owner but try it)
[Galaxy Grand 2 Themes and Apps] sanjiban:
Thanks for your link...installed...file manager opens...but can't see any.odex file under /system/prv_app...'system' folder only contains 'bin' folder...empty.

What to do now??
[Galaxy Grand 2 Themes and Apps] kuldude:
Yeah right but unlike you i created a backup with CWM just as a precaution and when it didn't work for me I restored it....
[Galaxy Grand 2 Themes and Apps] amarstha:
Sorry forgot to tell u. First after u open aromafm plz go to its setting and at last there is an option auto mount tick it and save it. Then restart aromafm. U ll see files
[Galaxy Grand 2 Themes and Apps] WaseemAlkurdi:
I ain't either ... I don't like people losing their phones ... I'm preparing a flashable ZIP with the original SecSettings RIGHT NOW.

how to copy. it says cant read write system. or i tryed with total commender. it going copy but. its not working. there is the problem in percing the package
[Galaxy Grand 2 Themes and Apps] WaseemAlkurdi:
One of three options:

1. Your phone isn't properly rooted.

2. You have applied enough mods to fill up the ROM space. Use an app called Apps2ROM to check the free space on the ROM. If the space is less than 70 MB, then reflash stock firmware via Odin and install the mod again.

3. A corrupt download.

4. The ZIP is flashable via recovery, not via Total Commander!
[Galaxy Grand 2 Themes and Apps] WaseemAlkurdi:
So what are the symptoms? Can a doctor diagnose a patient if he didn't know what hurts him?

[Galaxy Grand 2 Themes and Apps] aapav01:

[Galaxy Grand 2 Themes and Apps] WaseemAlkurdi:
No. That's a Grand 2 KK one, decompiled, and xml edited to enable hidden S5 grid layout.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Uzephi:
You most likely tried flashing something not for your phone. Your thread name states you have a One max, this whole section is for the regular one m7. Go to the one max section and flash an ruu for your carrier specific version. Most ruu threads will have instructions on how to flash it.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsw5775:
Yes, I flashed with M7_Google Edition_4.4_3.58.1700.5.zip. Even worst, when I send first flashed zip command, it showed the common HTC typo, said failed and need to send the same command immediately. Then I did it again and again and fastboot.exe crashed. Then I pulled out USB cable. That was the end. Never known a wrong ROM will cause such a big issue. I thought it was just like installing a bad operating system and reinstall by myself is always possible. BIG lesson for me.

But I still don't understand why a wrong ROM could brick the device. That is not a good design. I thought it should only be hardware support difference. Could someone explain a little bit? Now I know hboot is very critical and in charge of other booting flows. I still have a parttial functional fastboot mode but could not go to recovery or RUU mode. My getvar all info mostly are broken. Adb could not detect device anymore. Fastboot detected the device as ??????????? device only.

I really don't know why anyone is worried about this. The MotoX will definitely receive Android L. It would be foolish for Motorola to abandon support for a year old device. We probably won't get it super fast, but I'm sure we'll get it within 2-3 months of Android-L coming out.

[MENTION=3639055]mrvek[/MENTION]: a follow-up to http://review.cyanogenmod.org/61837

dalvik.vm.dexopt-data-only is being completely removed from CM currently, btw.

I've been playing with a little hack.

To get the unused/wasted space of system partition back to the read/write domain, we can swap the cache and system partition names (they are usually mounted by name, so the partitions can be effectively swapped by this).

diff --git a/fs/partitions/efi.c b/fs/partitions/efi.c
index 6296b40..4bc9234 100644
--- a/fs/partitions/efi.c
+++ b/fs/partitions/efi.c
@@ -666,6 +666,12 @@ int efi_partition(struct parsed_partitions *state)
info->volname[label_count] = c;
label_count++;
}
+ if (!strcmp(info->volname, "cache")) {
+ strcpy(info->volname, "system");
+ } else if (!strcmp(info->volname, "system")) {
+ strcpy(info->volname, "cache");
+ }
state->parts[i + 1].has_info = true;
}
kfree(ptes);

userdata are not affected by this change (no wipe/factory reset by user required), system has still almost 250MB free available when the current CM11+gapps are installed to the formerly cache, now system partition.

The r/w mounted cache has around 1.4 GB now.

The following script can be put as e.g. 10dex2cache to /system/etc/init.d

#!/system/bin/sh
rm -rf /data/dalvik-cache/*
/system/xbin/mount --bind /cache/dalvik-cache /data/dalvik-cache

So the dalvik-cache is stored in cache partition, freeing some space from userdata

In my case, it means over 400MB more free space in userdata when dalvik is used.

ART files are much bigger (the test of ART actually made me do this, as I haven't had enough free space in data for the switch to ART anymore).

plus:

- more free space in data

- much less wasted space in r/o mounted system

minus:

- free space in cache is not monitored, if it runs out, things will fail miserably without proper user notification of the cause (that's the main reason why dex in cache support is being removed from CM; when switched to ART, I have currently less than 400MB free in cache...)

- users would need to use a recovery with the same hack in its kernel => using some random available recovery build would result in partition mismatch

- fastboot erase cache issued by user would erase system...

- it's a hack

I'd welcome some opinions about this hack, [MENTION=3457922]stargo[/MENTION] , thanks :) .
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Loader009:
Is a kernel-hack the only way to change the mounts? (I assumed I would find something like fstab or similar).

I wished we could partition our phone >.<

Btw. I am not able to switch to ART. (Over 2.9 GB free space on the phone.)

After a reboot it's back to dalvik again. (build 03.08.2014; dd.mm.yyyy) It must be one of the installed apps, maybe XPrivacy.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kabaldan:
Kernel hack is certainly not the only way, but it's the simplest way - you do it at a single low level place and that's it, both android system and recoveries are then covered.

xposed is not compatible with ART - it's the xposed framework what keeps switching the VM back to dalvik for you.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Fr4gg0r:
If I apply the kernel fix, I don't need the mount script, right?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kabaldan:
The kernel hack effectively swaps system and cache partitions (stock system partition is 1.4 GB, cache 755.9MB; the kernel hack will swap them to 1.4GB r/w mounted cache and 755.9MB r/o mounted system)

The bind mount script is just one of the possible ways of use of the gained space in the now larger (by the kernel hack), read/write mounted cache - it moves the dalvik-cache from /data partition to /cache partition...
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] eigerzoom:
why cant we just change our partition sizes like the touchpad?

[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] mifritscher:
No idea :( Simply throwing parted at it doesn't work, it seems that the partition table is saved somewhere else (Result: data was moved, but original partition table restored -> broken data)

I also tried unsuccessfully parted.

When I was done with parted, I rebooted. All partitions were reverted back to stock.

I believe it is as mifritscher said...

You don't have to S-Off to install custom roms and kernels, it just makes it easier to install.
