Hi everyone,

I'm working on a project in which I need to remove any logos during boot time.

Boot animation was easy, I have just removed bootanimation.zip and binary from /system/bin and nothing is shown

But I'm having problem with removing/changing that samsung galaxy pocket logo at boot.

This phone doesn't have initlogo.rle/logo.rle files I could change,

I have also tried no rle method from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1795388 and there is no /common/driver/video/logo

but I have changed /driver/video/logo(not in /common) as in instructions and then I couldn't even boot into compiled kernel

Do you guys know any solutions for removing or changing bootsplash to all black? I can use custom rom or kernel for it if needed

A week ago, more less, I installed KatKiss-5.0_TF300T_014b.zip on my Asus tf300t and everything was ok until today. When I have turned it on this morning I have noticed that it was staying in a reboot loop.

After that, I tried to reinstall this rom again through TWRP 2.8.0.0 but the reboot was there again. Then I tried to flash CM 11 snapshot m12, but the reboot was earlier. And now i don't know what I should do.

More info: when I flash superSU and gapps, the screen says

"E: Unable to mount data"

. Perhaps I should do a format data to fix it. What do you think?

Thanks for your answers
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmendonc2:
I actually got the same problem with it when I flashed that. I did a factory reset from TWRP, then reflashed the ROM and Gapps to make the rebooting stop.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sergiolopezsan:
Format data??

I have already tried it (factory reset) and the problem remains. What if i do a "format data"?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmendonc2:
The Format data within TWRP will delete all your apps and settings.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sergiolopezsan:
Now my tablet is ok after formatting data.

What is Google Saved Games?​

Google Saved Games is a Google Services feature that allows you to sync your game progress or savegame among different devices, specially android. The game in question needs to support the feature (i.e. it's not an automatic backup and restore feature) but rather a feature on demand.

Scheme: Game name in english with market link - version tested - day/month/year

Games supporting Google Saved Games:

Asphalt 8: Airborne - v1.7.0k 01/01/2015

Lara Croft GO - v1.0.49390 - 30/08/2015. You need to activate the option inside the game.

Plants vs Zombies 2: It's about time - v3.1.1 - 01/01/2015

Puzzle Pets - v1.0.0r - 24/01/2015

Soccer Stars - v1.3.3 - 01/01/2015

Games that don't support it:

Angry Birds 2 - v2.0.1 - 12/08/2015

Azkend 2: The World Beneath - v1.1.9 - 02/01/2015

Crossy Road - v1.0.0 - 9/1/2015

Galaxy on fire 2 - v2.0.8 - 01/01/2015

Gunbrick - v0.7 - 11/01/2015

Monster Dash - v1.50.0 - 01/01/2015

Offroad Legends - v1.3.7 - 01/01/2015

Offroad Legends 2 - v1.0.1 - 01/01/2015

People reporting games either having or not this feature will be added in the first post.

There are other types of cloud saving. Some games or apps may store the data based on your facebook account, others may require you to create its own account or others will store the savegames in the sdcard, dropbox or google drive directly. There's nothing standardized so each app or game has to be evaluated independently.
[Android General] GTX90:
Thank you!

That is not accurate. Google Play Games has nothing to do with Google Saved Games. Saved Games is the real thing to save your game progress.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] TechBill:
I brought Cingular 8525 off Ebay over a month ago and love it. I like experimenting things to improve and learn of this website about upgrading your Hermes to make it better than stock version provided by your carrier. I have been reading this forum for almost a month now since I got this 8525 and wanted to dive into it but I would like someone to confirm the step I am plan on doing is the way to go with least risk of bricking my pda. I understand there always a risk of bricking it but I want the least risk as possible =P

From reading this forum and wiki I learn that I should do this steps but correct me if I missed a step or doing something in wrong order.

1) Since I am going to use Hard SPL I don't need to SuperCID my phone and just download Hard SPL Hard-SPL-V2.zip at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=296722 and flash it using usb port on a xp with activesync installed.

2) Download Radio 1.38 without gps HERM_RADIO_1.38.00.10_Only_SSPL.rar at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=297925 and flash it the same method above via usb and activesync.

3) Test phone make sure everything working after 2 flashes.

4) Download WM6 ROM (I am leaning toward MWVI Black Edition v1.2) Windows_Mobile_VI_-_Black_Edition_v1.2_(Release_22-03-07_GMT+10_4am).exe at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=298936 and flash it the same step as above via usb and activesync.

This part I am lost on is the statement on that forum -> "To install, run the (.exe). This will automatically push Des's SSPL to your phone although if you have security enabled then you will need to answer "Yes" to the dialogue when it appears on your phone."

Do I need to answer yes because I have Hard SPL install or is it going to overwrite my Hard SPL with Des's SSPL? I am lost about that one and wasn't sure on this.

5) Download cabs to restore Cingular data and mms settings at http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=1163312&postcount=1 and install it on phone.

6) Download Cingular Keyboard layout fix and install.

Also I am thinking of skipping step 2) - Radio upgrade also 4) - MWVI ROM upgrade and instead go with LVSW Edition at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=298809 which came out yesterday and since it come with Radio 1.34 and are there any steps I need to do with SPL or it will flash fine with Hard SPL? then resume step 5) and 6)

In the future if I want to get a new pda and sell this one, all I need to do is download stock ROM from Cingular and flash it back on my 8525 then it should be back to the state it was like when I brought it overwriting or removing the Hard SPL and Radio and OS?

Thank for your inputs and help!

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] TaurusBullba R.I.P.:
... answer, "yes". It's just a warning/message, that's all. Sounds like you have a handle on everything else. Just go for it (and be sure to keep your eyes open).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] vp3G:
SSPL stands for SoftSPL, so no, it won't overwrite Hard-SPL. It will run 1.09.des bootloader on your device for the duration of the flash, then you'll be back to whichever SPL you had before you started. If you don't have security turned off on your device (most don't), you'll have to answer 'Yes' when SSPL is pushed to your device because it's unsigned code. It has nothing to do with being Hard-SPL.

Whether or not you'll overwrite Hard-SPL with your flash depends whether the ROM you are flashing also contains SPL (and what version it is). Best to know exactly what you're flashing before you do.

The rest of your plan looks good to me, especially step 1 being to flash Hard-SPL. While nothing can "innoculate" your device from a brick (i.e., sh*t happens), Hard-SPL does give you a way out if a flash goes south on you.

Watch the Cingular settings cabs... I've had some issues with them. I prefer to set things up manually after a hard reset, but that's just my experience. They work fine for others.

Also, IMHO the newer radios work better with WM6. The combo shown in my sig runs beautifully for me (but, as always, your mileage may vary!).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] thasiccest13:
i am on a cingular 8528 and i am looking fo rthese 2 cab files.

WM VI Black Clean Icon Patch.cab

Cingular 8525 keyboard CAB

i am in a huge rush so can someone point out where tehy are? thank you in advance!

Eric
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] silent_killa:
Yep

Yep

If you wish

Looking good

Hard SPL is only there to help recover your device if it gets bricked during a flash. The security is OS dependant and only requires you to click yes when SSPL is pushed to your phone as it indentifies it as an untrusted source. This will probably happen when you install the Radio upgrade as well. SSPL is only a temporary psuedo bootloader and will not overwrite Hard SPL or any other bootloader on your device.

Unsure if those settings will work, maybe a cingular user can confirm this. If in doubt copy down your MMS and data connection settings and input them manually after OS upgrade.

Great!!

Ok, if you decide to go for the LVSW ROM then download the OS only repack that is posted somewhere in that thread (not the one thats in the 1st post). The reason for this is because it includes a bootloader that will overwrite Hard SPL. Just download OS and replace with Black Edition noted in step 4.

Shouldn't be a problem

No problem, nice to see someone do a bit of research for a change.

S.K.

EDIT: LOL!! Deleted my first post to create a nice lengthy reply and other ppl have beaten me to it now.... *cries*

First off i hate being called PAL, but thats ok.... i did search BUT i can not find it! i found 2 links that were not in use anymore, so i could not download, instead of making a nasty reply why even reply at all?

I am new and i do this for fun, just like everyone here, so relax and have a good time!

Eric
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Arktronic:
You hate being called PAL? What about SECAM? :p

OK, seriously though, the Black Edition patch was designed for the Black Edition, it's probably not a good idea to use it on the LVSW ROM.

The search function can be pretty crappy at times, which is why you can search the forums using Google instead. I think that changing the registry yourself is better anyway because then you know what you're doing...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] TechBill:
Wow thank you everyone for your replys!!

I am still undecide which OS ROM to go with.. Both look great!

You could try both if you want to. That's one of the benefits of this community. You can actually *choose* what you want, and then have the option to change your mind as many times as needed!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] vp3G:
Ok SPORT (better?), perhaps you're totally oblivous to the fact you hijacked the OP's thread as if your woes take precendence over anyone else's. But oh, that's right... "you're in a rush".

Not "being nasty", just asking that you demonstrate a modicum of respect for the forum.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] TechBill:
Upgrade was a success!

I went with Black Edition and I must comment it got nice Splash screen and today screen! I was a little worried it was going to be gothic looking screen but it wasn't and it is a very nice looking screen and setup and seem to be easier on the eyes too.

Thank you for all your inputs and feedbacks!

I entered the Cingular WAP setting manually and use a cab to fix the keyboard layout then uninstalled the cab so it wouldn't be in my Remove Program box.

OH yeah you got that right! The Radio flashing was exactly what you said. A real nail biter, there was moment when I thought my phone is screwed then it would jump another 4% or so in the status bar then another long pause.

But it was an awesome learning experience for me and now I feel more comfortable upgrading my pda.

Hi There.

Wishing all of you a happy new year.

I have finally found some time to work on Miui. Here is an updated 4.12.6 rom . It is on kitkat. (mostly the rag tag kitkat system that is not true kitkat, but runs in the kitkat system)

Anyway.

This is for the Xolo Q1010i Users. Others who want to port this please port it to the MTK6582 devices.

Download from

https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0BwkQgsLo9fXHbFVoeGIzSUlPQnM&usp=sharing

It is being uploaded. It should be ready in about 90 minutes post this thread is submitted.

[Android Apps and Games] migueldbr:
the idea is very good, but in my opinion it needs a better design. I dont know if you plan to change the design of the app, but you should think about that, maybe switch bubbles style and some of the icons and add some material design or something. Its one of the main things that users look when choosing a sms app because there are already a lot of sms apps to choose from with lots of features.

hope you dont take my opinion the wrong way.For such a new release, the app is very good!
[Android Apps and Games] Charlie:
Τhe main advantage of the app should be the speed.So design is in low priority for my opinion.Yes the design of an application is very important and many users love material!

OP keep up the good work and we are here to make your application even better! :beer:
[Android Apps and Games] PetGS:
Looks promising

But I can't see it at Google Play (Honor 3C)... One more thought: It could be hard to explain to a mass of users why they should download this app...
[Android Apps and Games] theturbanator:
Nice app! I just have a couple of suggestions: can you make an option so that an incoming text starts the app, but with the closed "chathead" instead of the entire pop up? It can be pretty distracting to have the entire pop up show up all the time, but the chathead would be great (like FB Messenger).

Also, can you make the size and transparency of the chathead customizable? Currently it's a bit too big and opaque to have around for a longer period of time, which is what I'm looking for. Thanks so much!!

Great app. I like how it shows seconds as well for the sent and received times.

Would it be possible to add an option to display the times received messages were sent? This is a common option in many full SMS applications.

Lots of potential here. Subscribed to the thread and looking forward to future updates.

This is the only SMS app I've used that shows the times in seconds. Really great feature, especially if you can implement the sent times for received messages.

That would be great – being able to get a closed chat head pop up that we can click to respond to the message rather than the full pop up would make this app so much more usable for me! Thank you!

Also, I can't seem to select a contact from the list without entering in their full number without any parentheses () or dashes -. Is that ability only available in the pro version?

Thanks for the continued development!
[Android Apps and Games] migueldbr:
+1 on the closed popup! and maybe show contact pic when available on the closed icon popup?if it does not give too much work

Looking good!
[Android Apps and Games] luutinhit.1412:
Thanks,

Is that same facebook messenger?
[Android Apps and Games] migueldbr:
Are you asking if it would be like facebook messenger to have the contact pic when popup is closed? In that case yes, it would be like facebook messenger. I like facebook messenger a lot, it would be really cool to have a sms app similar to it=p
[Android Apps and Games] theturbanator:
Exactly. When you receive a new Facebook message, the small chat head pops up on the edge of the screen instead of the whole pop up that you have right now. It would be a great option to have.

Also, I've discovered a bug. In the US, numbers are typically written as (123) 456-7890, where the first three digits in the parentheses () make up the area code. But when the number is written in that format, and I try to click on a contact, I get a toast message telling me to enter in the contact's number. This doesn't happen if the number is written as 123 456 7890, which isn't typical in the US. Would greatly appreciate it if you could fix this!

Thank you!!

If you have a problem, please report for me.

Thank you very much :)
[Android Apps and Games] migueldbr:
if i may offer my opinion on your app...i dont think you should charge for the app right now, maybe keep the pro version but only as a donate option, and keep the same version of the app on both free and pro/donate. I have seen lots of people start a new app and then abandon it and leave paying users behind, which sucks a lot. Also, to attract more users to your app you should keep the latest version free so that everyone can install it and check it out and later, when it is better known, start adding some extra features and turn the donate version to pro and keep those extra features only on donate/pro version.

I think that this way you would get a lot more users testing your app and maybe sticking with it. Of course its just my opinion and it doesnt mean anything because its your app, hope you dont take it the wrong way!
[Android Apps and Games] luutinhit.1412:
Thank you very much :)

That is the way I am using :)

Free and pro version is the same, it only different with some features. I will always keep free and pro version and support all user are using free or pro version.

2 questions for you brotha:

1. What is the difference between free/pro version?

2. Does this mean we need to use this as a default SMS app? Or is this more of a "sidekick" to say, Textra (the SMS app I use right now).
[Android Apps and Games] theturbanator:
A quick question for you: after updating, whenever I open up the app, it wants me to grant notification access to it. Just wondering why it needs notification access to send/receive SMSs? Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] luutinhit.1412:
Grant notication access for clear notifi of SMS default after read message. But now It's only clear notication on xperia model. I'm trying clear notifi for all devices.

Thanks for the update! Any chance that you're making progress on incoming SMSs showing up as a small, closed chathead on the side of the screen rather than as a full pop-up? That's the only thing that's keeping me from being able to use this app in its entirety. Thanks so much!!

[Android Apps and Games] theturbanator:
Awesome!! Thank you so much! Looking forward to it.
[Android Apps and Games] theturbanator:
The pro version has been great so far, and the closed chat head appearing with incoming SMSs is nicely implemented. A couple things to suggest/report:

1. Can you add in an option to disable the notification access request? I'm fine with not having the notifications be dismissed, so I want to get rid of the notification access request every time the app/chat head opens. That would be really, really great.

2. Whenever I get a text and the chat head appears, it "breathes" (fades in and out) until I finally respond from the chat head popup. I think it should breathe only until the chat head is opened to show the SMS because sometimes you don't want to reply right away, and so the chat head just keeps fading in and out nonstop, which is a bit distracting.

Thanks!!
[Android Apps and Games] luutinhit.1412:
Thank you very much with your suggest/report :)

I will fix it in next release version :)
