[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] xweaponx:
I see the comm managers but I am trying to find a way to skin my current one. Is there a way to editthe skin on my device? Where are the skins for the comm manager kept at on the device?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Dishe:
All of the graphics for the Comm manager exist in windows\

If you find those files and edit/replace them, you can change the whole way comm manager works.

Problem is, every button is its own image and each has 3+ states (on, off, disabled, or other options). On the 10 button comm manager, that means there are 80+ files to edit.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] xweaponx:
Thanks Dishe.

Looks like I have a lot of cutting & pasting...

Update:

For anyone looking, on my Alltel PPC6800 I found the files to edit in the \windows dir. The backgrounds are the P_BG & L_BG (portrait & landscape). The status icons are labeled as Status_Off & Status_On.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Dishe:
What someone should do (I'd do it if I had the time!) is create a photoshop .psd file with all of these graphics assembled as slices. Then we can change the background color, etc. and export them as individual files without having to manually edit each one.

In the mean time, the long way is the only way...
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] dc13:
i just got done getting all the files on to my card... and now on my computer.. should i make a PSD or just zip it and then people can do w/e they would like?

i have all the PNG files in the windows dir.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] skanndelus:
I am trying to do what you are but I posted a thread about the access rights of the files for being able to replace them... are you not running into the same problem?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] xweaponx:
It wouldnt let me modify them at first but once I copied them to my computer, clicked on properties and removed the read-only, all was well. After amendment, they copied over the original on my device with no problems...
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] skanndelus:
Oh wow I will give that a shot... thank you!

I am not sure how that would work though, seeing that the files on the device would still be read-only and shouldn't be allowed to copy over. When I changed the settings in TC it didn't save them either...
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] skanndelus:
Nvm I figured it out! Thx :)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Dishe:
Honestly, I'm planning on replacing them on the ROM-level, and flashing a new custom rom with my new files.

dc13, getting the files are not a big deal... I have a decomposed ROM image on my computer with all the files that go inside it, so I didn't even need to look on the PPC. I just viewed all files by thumbnail, and grabbed the 80+ files that looked like they belong to the comm manager. BTW, not every .png is for the CM. Some of them can be HTC Home, or the Dialer, etc...

I would have put them up if people were actually having a hard time getting them. The problem is changing them in a uniform fashion!

For example, if you're familiar with photoshop, and you want to change the gradient background to be, say, red and black instead of grey and black, you'll need to create a full sized gradient background that starts from the bottom of the screen and goes to the top (just like the current background image which starts at the bottom as a darker color and ends as a lighter gray on the top), and then make sure somehow that every icon has the appropriate part of the background appearing behind it in the png. This is very time-consuming to do to 80 files.

However, if you had the time and knowledge of Photoshop and ImageReady slices, you could create ONE .psd file that contained all the .pngs arranged in their proper places. Then, change the background of this larger picture, and do whatever you need to do with the icons (which would have to be arranged as layers), then you click to save it, you can have it automatically split it into all the slices needed as individual .png files.

Once this is set up, skinning the comm manager will take a matter of minutes. The problem is that this is probably 2-4 hours worth of work to set up, and I personally don't have the time to dedicate to it right now, especially since its not a paying gig.

I'm in the market for a new tablet to replace my Gpad GPE. Storage and RAM are the same on the K1 as I have now, and I am always having RAM and storage issues. The RAM is my biggest concern because this GPad slows to a crawl when RAM use is high.

How does the K1 performing for everyone? Any RAM issues? Would anyone recommend looking for a tablet with 3gb of RAM instead?

I do not do any gaming. I read, stream videos and play downloaded music, primarily on the tablet.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] macaroniblues:
Galaxy S3 won't turn on but is detected by PC as "relink hs-usb qdloader 9008"

Hi everyone! I was given a Galaxy s3 recently, the SC-06D variant but it doesn't turn on no matter what. It won't boot into recovery or odin mode.

However, when I plug it in the PC its detected as "relink hs-usb qdloader 9008". Is there any way to fix my phone? If so what should I do?

Any help would be appreciated :D
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Looks like the phone is hard bricked. You could try to revive the phone by booting with a boot image from an SD card and then try to flash a stock ROM.

Alternatively, you could try a cell shop that can force flash the stock firmware.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivadow:
No power at all means only jtag can recover it. Dead phone. Time to upgrade.

However, if your pc is detecting it then the board is alive but may not be in a recognisable state. You might be best looking for a bootloader for that particular board (the same as the factory would use to get the firmware on it in the first place). See this: https://goo.gl/qFcdsF

Found this post (kind of a noob here, so bare with me). From what I've read, it seems that my Kernel version is basically "un-rootable". So will installing a custom ROM or different stock ROM allow me to root my phone? Will installing a custom ROM trip Knox?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
No. What that thread is saying is that it cannot be unlocked from Straight Talk's network. You can however install a custom ROM on it. Most custom ROMs come already rooted, and installing one will trip Knox.

If you are still under warranty, installing a custom ROM will terminate it.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Nico_FR:
Hi guys,

I have a nexus 7 2013 which boot loop (or any watchdog restart ?).

If I try to normal start this one, I will get the Google logo for few seconds, then it will restart on its own.

If i press the volume down during this process, I can boot to bootloader, but same way, after few second, device will restart.

Any clue on what can be wrong ?

Thanks
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] k23m:
Hello, connect external power and try again. If it works now, you will have to replace the battery.

If it does not work with external power and it can not stop in bootloader/fastboot mode, then the hardware is faulty or the bootloader is corrupt.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Nico_FR:
External power does not change anything. Still boot loop, so really should be a hardware issue.

If I keep volume up key pressed, it boots, but almost unusable if I have to continuously press the volume up key.

Same when in bootloader: if I continuously press the volume up key, it does not reboot.

I've tried to erase everything with fastboot, but cannot do most of the operation. When trying to format data, it says that partition does not exists (it exists, as it can boot !)

Bootloader is locked, so cannot go with TWRP for example, as I cannot validate the on screen confirmation needed to oem unlock.

Do you know any way to unlock bootloader without use of onscreen confirmation ?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] SoulSmasher:
I don't know if that would help, but when I was installing Lineage OS and updated TWRP, I also boot looped once on recovery (recovery itself was boot-looping), and re-downloading (from another browser) and re-installing recovery at fastboot mode fixed my issue.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Nico_FR:
I cannot unlock the bootloader because of this issue, so cannot flash anything
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] P.Kosunen:
Could be broken power button, if it is stuck and pressing it continuously.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] coremania:
Are you able to reach your recovery to factory reset?

I mean can you reach it from the bootloader menu?

If not you could try to put twrp.img or recovery.img into your PC adb&fastboot folder and try

fastboot boot twrp.img

or

fastboot boot recovery.img

Don't know if this works with locked bl

If your Carrier has a super awesome way of dealing with warranty issues, that might be a reason to go with carrier.

I'm on Bell here in Canada too. Bell bootloader isn't locked...Don't think any of the carrier's is in Canada.
