[Wiko Rainbow ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Shahbaz23:
Hey , initially there was internal memory in the storage section as well as the file manger, but now after using USB storage and recovery from internal storage ( I don't exactly know which caused it :P ), there is no internal memory showing in the storage, nor is the /data mounting :( Hence can't even backup the rom... also MTK Droid tools doesn't recognize the phone.
[Wiko Rainbow ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] pocthird:
its the same problem as the one i had , i think its due to recovery , i just flashed again the rom and used only external sd from philz recovery and internal storage and mass storage both work fine now

[Wiko Rainbow ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] putridfoetus:
How did you decrypt? Just by doing factory reset? Or other method?

I ask because I can't take a backup from recovery due to /data not mounting.

Or maybe there's something else causing that?

Edit: Could it be because sdcard and internal storage are switched?

I just did a nandroid backup with Online Nandroid Backup app. worked fine.

Thank You for this awesome rom :) I wish there will still be further updates
[Wiko Rainbow ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] MaxisMan:
It's probably because of the forced encryption. Anyway, you can disable it by decompiling the boot.img, then open up fstab.mt6582 and change 'force-encryption' to 'encryptable,' decompile it back and flash it thru Flash tool. After that, since we can't mount or format /data, go to Factory mode and select 'Clear eMMC' and you're done. :) You can download the boot.img without forced encryption for Beta 4 here if you want. :good:
[Wiko Rainbow ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] putridfoetus:
derp

is that the edited boot.img? because i've already got the beta4 boot.img. the rest of your post was like my comp sci classes 10 years ago... :eek:

[Java for Android App Development] alicarbovader:
Hello everyone!

I need help in making a really simple app that can copy a zip i provide in the apk to a folder on the sd card. Im using Android Studio and most of the github repos ive been trying to study and replicate have so far proven unhelpful because of one reason or another. So i would like a small step by step tutorial or just the codes to make that happen.

PS ive got Android Sudio all setup and ready.

I'll be very thankful if someone helps me out :3

Cheers :)
[Java for Android App Development] SimplicityApks:
Hi,

you have to be aware that the user needs to open your app before you can start any services to do the copying. And I'm not sure whether extracting files from an apk (even if it's your own) is possible without root (maybe with an expansion file?). I would provide those files over the internet instead. Other than that, where exactly is your problem? If you have no clue of Android development I'd suggest you start reading the developer tutorials.
[Java for Android App Development] alicarbovader:
Okay about the part of not opening the app, zooper skins are able tp do just exactly that ie getting installed from playstore and bam all the files within the apk get copied to sd card. Im looking for exactly the same thing, but instead of zooper, i intend to have my own zip file being copied to the sdcard.
[Java for Android App Development] SimplicityApks:
Well the zooper apps I tried just now weren't copying something to my storage without me opening them, and I am sure this isn't possible since Android 3.1 (see here). However, something similar might be possible with the app extension files though I am not familiar with how that would work. Is not explicitly starting the app really such an issue?
[Java for Android App Development] alicarbovader:
Okay i decided to create a UI for the app, where i can show the screenshot and added a button which you can press to install the theme.

my question now is about this piece of code:

private void copyAssets() {
AssetManager assetManager = getAssets();
String[] files = null;
try {
files = assetManager.list("");
} catch (IOException e) {
Log.e("tag", "Failed to get asset file list.", e);
}
for(String filename : files) {
InputStream in = null;
OutputStream out = null;
try {
in = assetManager.open(filename);
File outFile = new File(getExternalFilesDir(null), filename);
out = new FileOutputStream(outFile);
copyFile(in, out);
} catch(IOException e) {
Log.e("tag", "Failed to copy asset file: " + filename, e);
}
finally {
if (in != null) {
try {
in.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
// NOOP
}
}
if (out != null) {
try {
out.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
// NOOP
}
}
}
}
}
private void copyFile(InputStream in, OutputStream out) throws IOException {
byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
int read;
while((read = in.read(buffer)) != -1){
out.write(buffer, 0, read);
}
}

i found it on stackoverflow, and i wanna understand how to use it to copy stuff from my assets folder to /storage/MycolorSCreen/Theme/exported/zip folder :)
[XDA Assist] atcrs:
Second attempt at getting some help, - perhaps first attempt was waaay too greedy for a noobie.

Lets start simple.

I have a bricked kf2

I now have a factory cable that, when plugged in , does indeed power up the kf2 in fast boot.

The pc acknowledges that a device has been connected, but no disk drive or portable device etc appears in "my computer" [xp speak!]

In device manager, the kf2 reports as "Otter2-prod-04"

Can someone please help me connect it to the pc correctly, in order for some of the utilities to be able to interact with it - ie. more chance of unbricking it

thanks in advance

Andy

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gaya4:
Hello,

I'm using Slimkat 4.4.4.8269 since its release. It has a neat feature called the custom tiles which is the feature that keeps me on that rom because I was unable to find a similar function in another ROM.

The Slimroms custom tiles basically lets you set unlimited "custom" tiles in the quicksettings which you can set with apps, os functions or whatever. They take a second action for a long press and they can cycle through multiple apps on that one tiles.

This is basically a quickstarter for apps. The thing that makes this marvelous is actually that opening an app doesn't get that app into the foreground, that statusbar stays in the foreground such that I can open a second and third, etc. app through very few taps.

An example what I use this for: My worst but not rare case here:

Navigation+speedcam warner+mozilla stumbler(wifi and cell existance to gps mapper)+openwlanmap.org (wifi to gps mapper)+openbmap.org (wifi and cell to gps mapper).

The best approach is to use a directory on the homescreen, if my launcher supported it. This way i don't have to search in the app drawer.

So I would open the directory, start app 1, press home screen, start app 2 and so on.

Until i started the 5 apps, I have done (swipes and presses+ app-open-taps combined) 15 actions.

Using custom tiles as slimkat offers it in the status bar I swipe to open the quick settings and then open my apps, 1 swipe+5 taps=6 actions.

This is for me much faster and allows me to pay much less attention to my phone while starting what I want.

However, I would like to update to Lollipop or M, anyways, go with CM most likely but that feature isn't there. I found out that the GravityBox with the xposed framework offers some kind of similar features but it only features 2 custom apps, currently I have a bit more than 20 in my status bar.

I could use "Tasker" for this approach as well, but actually that configuration is rather weird and static to one action/app (condition) which I first have to fulfill. That approach fails if one of the apps is already started and I only want to start one app especially if that meets Taskers condition. I end up using the app drawer and search for my app.

This post pretty much covers the configuration and outcome of the custom tile in Slimroms in two pictures:

http://xdaforums.com/google-nexus-5/orig-development/rom-slimkat-hammerhead-stable-5-0-t2511512/post51495728#post51495728

Have you seen any other ROM with decent updates (that seems to be only CM for the hlte at the point of writing) or way to accomplish something similar? It doesn't need to be in the statusbar, even though that is quite easy to access.

Parts of my post I took from my post to a CM feature request at JIRA:

https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/CYAN-2227?jql=text%20~%20%22custom%20tiles%22

Thanks in advance!

Try Layers, http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4/themes-apps/systemui-overlays-5-0-t3025183
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gaya4:
Thanks for the reply. I think layers is some sort of theming app overlaying the normal icons with other colors. This is something new to me and interesting, but not what I wanted in this thread.

I found something that goes a bit in that direction: Hangars. It displays some appbar in the notification area. Upon opening an app the area disappears and I would have to open the notification area again. Still better than the homelauncher and its folders.

Something I tested previously going into the same direction is the PIE control as well as some sidelaunchers like omnirom and such. Still the custom tiles allow a faster operation.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gaya4:
If anyone is interested in those, you could vote for this as well:

https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/CYAN-2227, It enclosed this feature.

From time to time I changed to CM or something like it, but return very quickly to my custom quick tiles as they are irreplacible and other roms waste time and I can hardly operate them blindly like slimkat.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gaya4:
Just heads up, Google finally may have thought those tiles to be useful and they were added in Marshmallow. You can only go there using the System UI tuner (google for it, if you don't know what it is. You'll need another app to configure those nicely, like custom quick settings. Due a bug you can't add more than 18 tiles in total, but if you like it and don't need more go ahead. Right now I have 40+ and they're in color.

So far I can't think of changing from the lovely slimkat.

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] Midget_1990:
Hi guys, as soon as we get some more money the 2nd athena should be arriving to me, so in light of this i'd like to see what your feature requests are for the rom i will be building :)

Everything will be considered, but no guaruantees :D

Dont forget to

or this cant happen ;)
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] LTxda:
suggestions...

- Fix all trueVGA graphical problems. Icons, screens, etc. I would like to run in trueVGA full time without having these types of issues.

- Unlock Extended ROM so people can put their own apps in for the next hard reset. ;-)

- Put the "Tray Display" utility into the ROM so people can show or hide their trays. File name "traydisplayinstall_196.CAB".

- Setup the "BlueTooth Tray Status & BT Audio Util" on the ROM. File name "btIO-0.5.CAB".

- Maybe the functionality to add/remove program icons from the tray without having to modify the registry? ;-)

- All black VGA theme. Similar to the default WM6 theme but all black. :-)

- If possible, maybe an updated version of Pirazu so we can control a mouse cursor with the joystick?

- Alternative to BlueMouse so we can use a BT mouse cursor on the device. BlueMouse is nice but it costs.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] Nara-e-Mastana:
Make it work like "Touch" ;) may be the looks....
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] jab:
vueFlo for everything. :)
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] LTxda:
Yes...how did I forget this. For sure trying to tie the vueFlo into other apps and possibly games, etc.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] wgary:
For me, these first five would be a darn good start.

- With #1 - Usable dialer in TrueVGA would be #1 on my list.

Couple more (may already be fixed in WM6, but have yet to plunge):

- WiFi On/Off is flaky unless you actually go into the Comm Manager (e.g., PhoneAlarm and other programs are not effective)

- I still have problems doing multiple mappings to Win and OK buttons. AEBPlus does this kinda, but then other buttons get mucked up. Given few number of buttons, this is really limiting.

Wish list:

- USB-powered Beer Tap. I know the low-power port might be an issue, but I'm sure this should be doable. Integration with MS VC would also be great, "Computer, pour beer." (All I can say is, it's been a long day!)
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] jab:
Actually I should have just put mapping of the vueFlo API. That should open up the rest of the developers to building cool widgets also.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] bebox:

Solid & Fast ROM compatible with previous backups

Damn guys...you're not asking for much are you...hehe. Actually I quite like the sound of the all Black VGA ROM with Touch like interface.:)

But hey, I'll settle for a an all black super reliable and damn fast ROM in vanilla favour.

You guys have made some great suggestions, that I can't argue with. All I can say..is I'd love a ROM that I can use my Spb Backup files with...without corrupting any software, so when you release version 0.1, 0.2 etc...it will still be compatible with my backup files, making the switching of ROM's a quick thing to do.

I hate my phone being out of action.:( and having to re-install everything again.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] c0mput0r:
I third the black vga theme. Also in vga mode is it possible to make the start bar a little bigger so it is more finger friendly. Something the size of when it it is in qvga mode would be great. Also when you push the start bar and the drop down list pops up it would be great if that was larger with larger text. Also at least for me in vga mode in wm6 none of the 3g, signal strength icons show up in the start bar only the time does.

The only thing i'm against is the vueFlo. Except the part about using vueFlo to sense when to rotate the screen.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] boinger66:
why not just make vueflo toggle ?
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] fallenczar:
i think i can fix the larger text part...

here try this

WARNING...THIS IS NOT REVERSIBLE....NOT WITHOUT CHANGING SOME REG. ENTRIES... AT LEAST (and i don't know which one's need to change!!)

works well with se VGA too esp. if you have fading eyesight!!!
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] eaglesteve:
How about an icon on the task bar that rotates screen.

Also, when using the device in QVGA mode, smaller icons on today screen, start/program screen, start/setting screens.

When in VGA mode, but running a QVGA program , show a matching size bigger soft key buttons.

Show connection icons (H, 3G, G) correctly when in true vga mode.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lucaoldb:
It does not work for lollipop, while it seems to work for kitkat, so you should downgrade before testing this app.

I don't know if it can be considered a safe practice, since the app, to perform the exploit, requires your data to be sent to a Chinese server and you will not get superuser, but the corresponding Chinese app. Anyway, some say they have eventually been able to remove such app and replace it with superuser. It is not something I tried by myself, so please do not take it for granted but it should be possible to flash lollipop by using mobile odin, while still keeping knox 0x0 and root.
