I'm trying to replace the lock screen sounds in System/media/audio/ui and I'm not sure which files to replace. I've replaced Lock.ogg with another sound file but the water droplet madness still continues! Which file am I looking for here?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metalfan78:
It depends on what lock screen effect you use. There is lock_none_effect, lock, and lock_ripple (I think), oh and lock_particle.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] mickeyasamoah:
I rooted my device a few days ago in order to stop the 4.1 ota update, I am currently on 4.0.4 and the device is an xt912.

Today I decided to install safestrap and after installing the recovery and booting into it, I backed up the stock rom.

After backing it up, I clicked on reboot to system.

The device then jumped into a bootloop.

So I cleared cache, dalvik cache, and even factory reset but it won't pass the DROID eye.

So I created a new slot and restored my early backup and to my suprise, it booted up.

I then rebooted back to recovery and cleared system, data,cache and dalvik cache of stock slot and restored the same back up there and rebooted, and it booted up nicely. But after that the recovery kind of disappeared. So I installed safestrap apk again and rebooted to recovery to make sure it flashed.

I was able to boot into the recovery but as I tried to boot back into the rom, I got stuck in a boot loop again.

My problem is if I reinstall the recovery, the device gets stuck in a bootloop, unless I wipe everything and restore my backup.

Also when turn off the phone and connect it to wall charger, the battery sign doesn't show up again.

Can u guys help me out??

Doesn't matter if I loose my stuff.

I just want a working 4.0.4 with root and to be able to charge the device when it's off.

(BTW my version of safestrap is 3.3.0 I think. Its 3 point something.)

I need help ASAP.

[G4] blazoner:
It was suggested in this thread that those unlocking their Wizard devices through IMEI Check, download USB-Monitor (available HERE free for 30 days as shareware) and run it BEFORE RUNNING THE IMEI CHECK SOFTWARE ON THEIR DEVICE!

Then post the results to the FORUM.

I propose that we use this thread to do that, so a SIMPLE AND FREE unlock method can be found!

Before you start in on me about taking one for the team, I PAID TO UNLOCK MY G3 WITH IMEI CHECK TOO! :rolleyes: (And if I'd have known I could have helped by doing this, I would have!)

I feel it would be an excellent way to repay the entire wizard community for their wonderful time and effort!

And NO, this is NOT something I'm doing myself, I'm just trying to get the ball rolling!
[G4] __s:

[G4] blazoner:
Thanks for taking notice, Faria!

It's some of the discussion about your 3.0.0.0 ROM's that has inspired me to get this started.

I figure the more objective (system provided) information we have, the closer we are to a simple solution.

Looking forward to any findings! :D

But file size is over 2mb !
[G4] blazoner:
Cool! I was just about to assume that the IMEI Check software checked for usb monitor, etc. and disallowed running the two together.

Can you zip the file and upload it?

If you don't have a zip program, google winzip, or winrar.

If the file is text based, it shoul zip nice!

Mine is Locked
[G4] pof:
Have a look at this thread in order to understand how this was done in the Hermes:

Reverse engineering the HERMES imei-check unlocker

The bootloader commands for the Hermes are explained in these wiki pages, you _really_ need to do something similar for the wizard:

Hermes Bootloader Information

Hermes Radio Bootloader and AT command interpreter

Some hints that may help you:

1. You can run the unlocker as many times as you want, it doesn't matter if you've already cid unlocked your device, the imei-check unlocker will behave the same.

2. In order for the USB monitor capture to be useful, you need to click on the "COMPLETE" tab and when you have captured it, export it as ANSI TEXT.

3. If the app fails (communication error) you need to create 2 admin users, 1 for running usb monitor and the other for running the unlocker. Use right click, "run as..." and then select the other admin user. You need to repeat this process several times until you can successfully get the log.

4. be careful on what you post here, as imei-check has intelectual property rights on their work. Do not "copy" their solution, but reimplement it in another way.
[G4] docdoc8:
look its not intellectual property simply because its a solution around a software lock put on by the manufacturer ...this voids the warrantee anyway. post it simply because you can don't worry about intellectual property
[G4] lasc:
goldcard

and what about goldcard(http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=270952)? is it way to flash whithout unlockCID?
[G4] blazoner:
It's intellectual property simply because it's their solution. DON'T post it, unless you want to be named in their lawsuit! Furthermore, DON'T post it because none of us can afford having xda-developers closed down because they are getting sued!

The trick is that the ultimate solution was designed by HTC. IME Check just exploits it.

Therefore, if we can see what IMEI Check is doing, we can find a different way of doing the same thing!

As an example:

IMEI Check rolls a ball by pushing it with a stick, so we blow on it to make it move, or we dig under it to make it roll downhill.

Either way, we can't be accused of doing it the same way they are, but we're still rolling the ball. ;)
[G4] docdoc8:
if anyone will sue xda developers it will not be IMEI Check it will be the HTC or the companies involved in making the phones/MDA's. Remember its the company who made the phone G4 so people couldn't mod it.

i doubt IMEI check has the money for lenghy court costs.

plus if you reverse engineer IMEI's way of Unlocking but change the order of doing it your essentially copying them anyway.

Just my opinion.

anyway this site is great, keep up the good work fellas.
[G4] SanderZ:

[G4] simplekanc:
Try to run aWizard with CID unlock. If write operation success - CID was unlocked by IMEIcheck. Or I'm wrong?
[G4] machinagod:
CID unlock and DOC protection are 2 very different things. Unlocking the CID shouldn't enable write-access to the DOC.

Just my 2 cents,

[G4] simplekanc:
Ok. r2sd spl command :)

wdata 92000000- it's checker splash.

wdata 91000000-910BFFFF - SPL,

on first and second stages differs (some bytes)

We need at least one more log from another device to compare

See post below.

For those afraid of attaching because of imei info, do not attach the .lgs file but convert it to text (using the export function of USB monitor) and then remove your imei in the text file, it is shown after AT+GSN.

Hi,

http://www.fla242.net/Fla242-unlock-log.zip
[G4] pof:
I guess this is more or less what they do:

1. At stage 1 they flash a patched the SPL (bootloader), so that instead of reflashing the splash screen it writes to the security area where the CID is stored

2. At stage 2 they send the wdata commands to reflash "splash screen" to the modified bootloader, this changes the CID

3. they flash a normal SPL back again
[G4] mun_rus:
so, can we say that the free way to cid unlock on g4 exists?

wht about tool that was atached in previous post? does it cid unlock g4 device?
[G4] simplekanc:
No, we can't.

I have some questions:

1. Who knows how to convert SPL from our log (wdata 91010000-910BFFFF) to .nb file?

2. What is located at addr 8FA00398? (from log: wdata 8FA00398 4, bytes:01 00 00 00)
[G4] mestrini:
1- Maybe joining up those log chunks and seeing if they make up 64k. If so then try to use typhooncidedit.pl or lokiwiz to decrypt it (just some thoughts)

2-Those 4 bytes exists at the very start of an encrypted CID block (at least extracted from my G3 wizard, may differ from others) but dunno what they're for

I know that this is a but off-topic but does anyone know how to get out of a kadc command in mtty.exe?
[G4] pof:
Use any hex editor, copy paste the HEX values (without the ascii right column) and save as binary.
[G4] the-equinoxe:
also you can have good help from excel:

Cut and paste the parts from the log to a txt,

import it to excel, removing ascii and saving it again as a txt (replce all [tabs by [space], takes a while!!), then opening the new txt, opening winhex and paste the hex..

Works like a charm ;)
[G4] neonkoala:
Do we not need wdata 91000000 10000 as well to make the complete SPL?
[G4] mestrini:
You need all the chunks as they are 12*0x10000 which makes 0xc0000, the size of SPL ;)
[G4] mestrini:
It's common that G3 SPL can't be used in G4 and vice-versa so how come this unlock software's SPL makes no distinction between both types of SPL?

Anyone has any thoughts on that?
[G4] pof:
Probably "set 32 2" or "info 0" commands return different output depending if device is run on G3 or G4 wizard.
[G4] mestrini:
Info 1 returns the device SPL with all the digits so that should mean that the sw must have two kinds of SPL packed inside itself...

Once again, a bit off-topic, but do you have any clue how mtty communicates with the devices? Normal USB drivers/commands? Do you know any amateur work on that area? tx

[G4] fla242:
hello,

This is not good topic here, please take a look in other thread in G4 section.

[G4] libertysyclone:
Question #1 DOES the project still need more logging info from this? and do you still want me to use USB monitor or some other program? Who do i need to send it to?

Question #2 does a unlocked CID allow me to use any ROM or do I still have to stick with the G4 friendly ones? and does it reamin unlocked after everyreflash?
[G4] neonkoala:
1. I'm not sure but any logging info is good so if you are paying to unlock then any results would be great! Stick with USB monitor I would think is best as some people have licenses for it to replay the log.

2. You still need G4 friendly ones as this is due to the chip inside being different to the G3, and yes it does stay unlocked after every reflash.
[G4] PiGG:
PiGG

I saw there was some confusion about my attempt.

It did succeed. I unlocked the CID ( The SIMlock was already removed via lokiwiz ) and upgraded my Vario to 3.0.0.0 from molski.biz

That version is running fine and stable now with numerous benefits, which would be offtopic here.
[G4] d0ug:
I'm curious what the status is on this unlocking project. I've seen a couple people have posted USB logs. Do we have enough information now to make an unlock utility now? If we do have enough information now, is anyone actually doing any coding, or do we need a coder to go any farther?
[G4] pof:
The data written to the phone is actually different in each unlocking, most probably this is dependant on the DOC unique ID of each phone, so it would be good to have this dumped (pdocread) before and after the unlocking process is done.
[G4] CAnnabYS:
wouldn't it be a bit easier to figure out how the key files for the imei check program are generated? :confused:
[G4] internetadam4657:
so do we have any updates on the progress?

i've been a long time lurker here but i just got a g4 wizard and i'm not too keen on forking over $40 USD for unlocking my 8125.
[G4] madjokeer:
i tried just unlocking the sim with lokiwiz but i didnt work for the G4, i see posts in there stating its working.. what version you guys using for lokiwiz?
[G4] neonkoala:
Going off topic ^ but try using Lokiwiz 3.0 rather than v2.

I think progress is reliant on rebuilding some of the ROMs snatched from USB into workable files from the hex.
[G4] uberdeity:
Hey there, I'm just a mere newbie, but has anyone tried just renaming the key file? I just paid to unlock mine and I recieved a 32.3kb .unl file with the name in the format "<first 15 digits of IMEI returned from *#06#>.unl"

Does this seem like it would work? Also, would this be legal?
[G4] d0ug:
I highly doubt that would work. That would just be too easy. Most likely the file contains an encryption key based on your IMEI, and maybe the actual encrypted binary files that are used to unlock the phone. Seeing as the file is 32k, that’s a lot of data. Even the strongest of encryption keys can fit in under 1-2k of space. The rest of that file is either parts of the unlocking program encrypted to keep people from cracking their unlocker, and probably even the chunks of data that they write into the flash of the phone to unlock it.

I actually paid to unlock mine last night. I’ve already had the phone 2 months. My luck if i keep waiting it will be another 6-9 months if ever until a free unlocker comes out. By then ill probably be moving on to a new device.

[G4] starkwong:
1. You are obviously posted in the wrong place, it's a G3

2. You certainly did not unlock your CID before flashing

3. Wizard is NOT Prophet, you cannot flash a Prophet ROM to Wizard device

Try this:

1. Go to http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=285435 and read through the whole guide

2. Download the button's 1.05 ROM (Don't ask where is it, you didn't read the post carefully)

3. Follow the instruction to recover and unlock CID.

4. Upgrade your IPL/SPL to 2.xx

5. Pick a WM6 rom FOR WIZARD and flash it.

still no g4 cid unlock for free solution

:( so there is no g4 cid unlock for free, if anyone find some kind of solution please do post, at the moment i use ShellTool to do ROM change but.... not any more since the last time because of an error the almost brick my 9100, SO! STILL LOOKING FOR A FREE SOLUTION :D
[G4] CrArc:
I am going to squat on this thread.... I just bricked my last G4 flashing a naughty ROM with Shelltool. Because it was CID locked, i couldn't flash a working ROM back onto it as I couldn't boot into Windows! :-D mind you I can't afford £40 for unlocking my new one...

*patience* though what I'm really after is the wizzy new GUI on the HTC Touch..
[G4] mestrini:
You can't brick a phone by using a RAPI tool. what you can do is mess up IPL/SPL and OS and make it a very strange software salad for the phone to accept. But, as long as you can go into bootloader mode you might have a way to get your phone back.
[G4] CrArc:
Yeah you'd think! I was convinced I could revive it too, since it could boot into the bootloader. I had to mix and match RUU utilities because half of them threw up errors until I found one that worked, and then it was a case of trying several different WM6/WM5 images to find one that it booted with.

I couldn't try the mtty app to try the copy-to-miniSD-then-copy-back method as it was CID locked. But it solved the problem for me anyway, because after about the twelfth flash, it died completely - wouldn't charge, turn on, nothing. So... bricked. *sigh*
[G4] mestrini:
That's not bricked!! It's flat battery :p
[G4] ChristoA1:
A little worried...

Hey guys, I don't know if this is a little off topic or not...

I just bought the IMEI-Check software, and got the unl file from them. When I try to run the program, it's shutting down my computer. I don't have the USB Monitor or anything installed, and I'm running Vista Ultimate as Administrator. I'm emailing back and forth with them (to their credit, they're pretty fast on responses, less than 10 min at this time of day), but I'm worried about them saying "Sorry, it's just not working" and then me being out $40. If worse comes to worst, and I have to do a PayPal dispute, is there anything they can do since they have my IMEI? Is it legal for them to do? I don't want them to deactivate my phone or anything just because the software isn't working...

Advice? Hopefully it won't get that far and either 1) we'll get it working, or 2) they'll refund me.
[G4] AdamG:
I myself bought a unlocking key from imei check as well a few days ago, it worked fine but I'm on XP, they can't lock/deactivate your phone no matter what theyre website says because the service they offer isn't fully legit anyway, the CID lock is put there for a reason and they are offering a service to unlock it and its leaving O2 and other companies out of pocket effectively in a way, so they're not going to report fraud to anybody. Can't you put one of these Windows XP Mini USB Distros on your a USB flash disk and just use that so you can use your unlocking key?

Also in response to this topic, I think we could just use they're tool to unlock our XDAs if we could create the unl files they give, the algorithm can't be that hard to crack as they instantly generate files using they're php script the PayPal IPN is processing to. I'm willing to donate my unl file to help with this if anybody is wishing to try and take this path, just send me a pm.
[G4] ChristoA1:
Thanks!

Thanks for the response! I figured about as much, but just wanted to be sure... This is going to sound dumb, but what would you suggest for said "Windows XP Mini USB Distro"? Also, if things don't go well, I could donate my unl file, as it means nothing to me, and I'm the only one with this IMEI :-)
