[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Giannis86:
you wont be able to overwrite system files just like this in windows. you have to change the folder settings.

check here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=450073

once you do that, disable tf3d and then copy paste my files on the windows folder..that should be easier
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Boris83:
I followed exactly what the post said however the option "show hidden files and folders" will not stay active after I click "apply". it changes back everytime I access those options again. Also the author said to go on my phone and "kill manila" through settings/today/items. What does that mean...I don't see an option for that. I'm guessing that means turn off my TouchFLO 3d but that doesn't help my Windows folder appear

My Windows folder is still not visible.

Thanks again
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Giannis86:
he means that you have to go to settings-->today-->items and uncheck the box with TouchFlow 3D.

once you are done with the icons you enable it.

Doing this makes sure that you can see the new icons without having to reboot the phone..

i will check tomorrow more about this problem when i get back home..
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Boris83:
also another quick question....does overwriting the old icons mean that they will be lost? will I be able to switch the theme back to default later?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Giannis86:
no they wont be lost

Total commander will not ask you to overwrite the first time..after you do it once it will ask you if you want to overwrite the next time

basically all manila files are stored in the ROM. If you delete a manila file from you windows directory, the ROM will automatically restore the original one. So in other words, if you delete the manila files from my icons, the original icons will be restored

a quick way of doing this is with Diamond tf3d config. It has an option to restore the default theme (essentially what it does is delete the manila files responsible for the themes for you)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] lubbad85@hotmail.com:
new theme

Check out my theme. Kind of a vista aero custom. Landscape and portrait. I was inspired by this thread
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Giannis86:
nice stuff there

may i suggest to use the 3icon menu from nisse..this will make sure that you can only see 1 icon on the scrollbar when something is selected..
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] bojangalz:
Wow...This was the first time I've done any reg editing or theming on my htc touch pro. Thank you so much, it looks great. If I may, I've got a few questions:

First off, the color for the windows title bar and soft keys is still the standard blue/green color. Do I need to change this manually?

Also, how on earth do I change the background picture for my start menu? I can't get that one figured out for the life of me. It changed when I loaded my first today background, and now I can't get it to change at all.

It appaers that the slider is not wide enough to cover the full icon on my TF3D bar. Is this normal?

I'd also life to change the color to the background of the landscape page. How do I go about this?

Again, thank you so much for the awesome theme. I completely fell in love with it the moment I saw it. I don't expect that I'll be theme shopping again any time soon.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] sickboy555:
Looks nice but totally messed up my TPro. After installing files TF3D does not work, but phone grinds along seemingly struggling to do anything.

I installed other TF3D themes without problem.

Untill someone else confirms it works, I would avoid.....
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] vicunasm:
when i try to copy the manila files to my touch pro in the windows file it says cannot overwrite the files because there is not enough space or the files are write-protected or in use. i know there is enough space and i disable the TF3d in the settings in the today section. what am i doing wrong?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Giannis86:
as mentioned in the instructions you have to use total commander or another explorer that allows overwriting system files
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] liv004:
found my mistake.

sorry im new at this and I loaded the fire files to test it out and i changed to another theme but the fire theme is still on the touch flow tab icon that is active. how do i remove that?

:confused:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] fottenlahi:
can we use this with TF3D config?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Giannis86:
in case you want to restore a theme quickly you can always do it with Diamond TF3D ->restore default function..

@fottenlahi

i guess you could but you have to zip all the manila files DIRECTLY (WITHOUT any folders). otherwise it wont work
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] fottenlahi:
okay i will give that a try and let you know.;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] RaudelJr:
Giannis86,

Can you create the theme in such a way that it can be installed using Diamond TF3D Config?

I have other themes for example, "MacOs Djoub.theme" (notice the *.theme extention)

Diamond TF3D Config finds the theme and extracts all the manilla files to the appropriate folder.

Do you know how to do this? It would make your Theme Installation much easier. Just an Idea.

By the Way your Fire Theme is just what I was looking for to replace my MacOs Djoub.theme.

Raudel
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Giannis86:
diamond config can handle zip files too

put the files in a zip file (WITHOUT FOLDERS - so select the files-->send to compressed folder)

that should do the trick
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] RaudelJr:
Thanks for the tip.

Raudel
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] geeteedan:
ok, few things

got it loaded and the icons are on there but i dont get them looking like your in the first post

I cant access TF3D config, give me an error message when i try and open it up so i cant change the way the icons appear

also, i used phm regedit and went to change the color to red but i dont have a highlightcolour under the phone tab.

and last, where is the bmp file so i can get the volume control looking good?

Thanks a million
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] guitarman584:
This has got to be the best theme I have tried yet! 1 question though. Would it be possible to change the color of the tab selection and globe to match this theme? The sprint colors just don't go along with this theme. Thanks.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] guitarman584:
Forgot to add this in to my 1st post. The boxes around the slider icons isn't centered around the icon. Did I do something wrong?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] shiverz26:
ok trying to learn

can this be done with a stock ROM? using Sprint Touch Pro and i think im having the same problem that someone previously was having... i can navigate in TC and all but my device does not show up in TC unless i put it into disk drive mode at which point i can not find any of the mobile device folders it only shows the removable media card... so how do i get to find the device on my computer. i can use active sync and when in disk drive mode can copy files to the storage card all day long but not to the device itself.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] mjak83:
htc sense ui?

will this work for the manila 2.5? i got the volume control to work (mostly)using the regedit in total commander but nothing else will work so far.second is it at all possible for you to pack age this in a .cab file for those of us that arent familiar with zip files and all the language used?
[Poco X3 GT (Redmi Note 10 Pro 5G)] surfturtle:
I have the GLOBAL version of POCO X3 GT (chopin) 8GB/256GB and its a good device but the Google Dialer is making the whole phone unusable becuase of its Call Recording.

1) It does not have Automatic recording for all calls

2) Even after manually recording calls it takes ages to search for recorded files as there is no way to access them.

I do not want to root my phone for security reasons however I came across some posts which mention that the INDONESION firmware has MI Dialer & Contacts instead of Google which is enough incentive to void my warranty and try to change firmwares.

It has been a couple of years since I last played with custom roms, bootloader, fastboot flashing, etc. So I would appreciate if you guys can help me with a few questions:

1) Bootloader unlocking: Whats the best method for Poco X3 GT

2) Method to flash different region stock firmware

3) Is it safe to re-lock the bootloader after the new region firmware is flashed? or do I need to leave the bootloader unlocked?
[Poco X3 GT (Redmi Note 10 Pro 5G)] Longtn:
1. use the official xiaomi bootloader unlock tool

2. Easy, just download the region fastboot rom you want and extract them. Flash via MiFlash -- pay attention to tick clean all in the corner of the screen if you don't want your device to be bricked

3. don't relock, if you lock the bootloader on other region firmware, you will be bricked
[Poco X3 GT (Redmi Note 10 Pro 5G)] surfturtle:
thanks
[Poco X3 GT (Redmi Note 10 Pro 5G)] surfturtle:
Worked like a charm.

however it seems that 5Ghz wifi is not working after the Indonesian firmware flash.
[Poco X3 GT (Redmi Note 10 Pro 5G)] kamboz:
hi, i want to use indonesia rom too. are you still using it? would you recommend? thanks.
[Poco X3 GT (Redmi Note 10 Pro 5G)] abubasim:
Oddly enough, this was not my experience. I unlocked my bootloader, flashed the Indonesia version 13.0.5.0 fastboot image using MiFlash using the clean all option. Then after booting and setting up the phone, it offered the update for version 14.0.1.0. I let the phone complete the update. Once the update finished and the phone had booted up again I rebooted it to bootloader mode and ran the command fastboot oem lock. The phone went through a factory reset and then booted successfully to the new phone setup dialogue.

Also to mention that I did also experience problems with 5GHz WiFi with version 13.0.5.0 but these problems were resolved after the version 14.0.1.0 update.
[Poco X3 GT (Redmi Note 10 Pro 5G)] surfturtle:
Even after update to 14.0.1.0 my 5Ghz wifi did not work. After waiting months I have just flashed back to global 14.0.2.0.TKPMIXM firmware yet still 5Ghz wifi is not working. Can someone guide how to fix it? Have I messed up its baseband or something during flashing?
[Poco X3 GT (Redmi Note 10 Pro 5G)] abubasim:
Still unlocked bootloader?

As a comparison, whenever I unlock the bootloader on my Nokia 7 Plus and flash a custom ROM, I am not able to use 5GHz WLAN. It only works after relocking the bootloader and flashing stock firmware.

I am not sure if this was the same with the X3 GT and I cannot test it anymore as my wife took the phone and I am now using a X4 GT.
[Poco X3 GT (Redmi Note 10 Pro 5G)] surfturtle:
I relocked after flashing to ID rom from Global and it seems to work fine but 5Ghz WiFi still not working.
[Android General] UltimN8:
Hello fellow friend,

"Corrupted device" NO LONGER

This guide is targetted at those who like me, locked their bootloader and got the message : "corrupted device blabla"

And are desperate as Lenovo doesn't answer when we ask for the unlock file via the ZUI unlock website.

Well, it is possible to change your serial number temporarily to unlock your bootloader with a known file for this serial. And this how you do it ->

1. Go into EDL mode (hold down volume up and connect to PC)

2. Launch QFIL, go to Tools -> Partition Manager (make sure you have selected the correct programmer prog_firehose_ddr.elf from the Chinese ROM)

3. Right click on the partition "fpinfo" -> Manage Partition

4. Click read data

5. Backup the data (it contains your serial number), you can find it in : AppData\Roaming\Qualcomm\QFIL\"your folder" mine is COMPORT_3 (the file contains the start adress of the partition : 0x2208)

6. Open a copy with an hex editor like HxD and modify your SN to HAHAHAHA (make sure your file is the same size as the original)

7. Back to QFIL : Load the modified file to the partition

8. Right click on the partition "frp" -> Manage Partition

9. Backup the data (file 0x2188)

10. Open a copy and change the last byte from 00 to 01

11. Back to QFIL : Load the modified file to the partition

12. Download sn.img for HAHAHAHA from here

13. Boot your tablet into bootloader mode (check the new SN)

14. fastboot flash unlock sn.img

15. fastboot oem unlock-go

16. CELEBRATE because your bootloader is unlocked !

17. Back to QFIL : inject back your serial number backup in partition "fpinfo"

18. You can go back where you left -> Flash the Stock Chinese ROM
[Android General] TEK023:
did you lost safetynet when unlocked bootloader ? also after locking the bootloader ?
[Android General] gunalarix8:
I dont have problem with safetynet with unlock and relock bootloader. However during unlock and root, need to install magisk module, magiskhide and safetynet fix by kdragon. I want to try fix L1 widevine with this method, later next day. 😀
[Android General] UltimN8:
So I updated until 13.1.560, my widevine was L3

Then decided to lock bootloader because that's the latest ZUI version (it erases memory) and my Widevine became L1

THAT is a hell of a win :D
[Android General] UltimN8:
I did not mess with twrp or magisk or anything.
[Android General] rb25zed:
@UltimN8 does this method work if you did not toggle the OEM unlock in android before locking the bootloader? If it does I will be very thankful to you.
[Android General] UltimN8:
It does, the ultimate goal here is to unlock bootloader and toggle oem unlock with fastboot

View attachment 5704955

Al intentar bloquear el bootloader se me borra todo el sistema y solo me sale esa pantalla, hay alguna forma de solucionarlo o es hora de ir a llorar debajo de la cama?
[Android General] UltimN8:
You only need to lock after you updated your system to ZUI 13.1.560 (search the forum for the files), else it will "semi-brick" your device.

Follow my guide to unlock back your device.
[Android General] Neter_:
You are right, I already requested the sn.img, hopefully they will send it to me soon, thanks for your help.
[Android General] rb25zed:
It worked! Thank you so much @UltimN8.
[Android General] UltimN8:
I'm glad it worked for you !

Have you install the latest ZUI and relock bootloader ? it works like a charm afterwards (dont forget to debloat your device, remove random chinese apps)
[Android General] rb25zed:
Yeah it worked great!
[Android General] empty.cad:
i don't understand about 10. " last byte "

[Android General] opurarafael24:
@UltimN8 what tools did you use to lock your bootloader? Can you please send me the link. Mine was still L3 when i lock it on latest stock zui 13.1.560.
[Android General] rêkleighner:
Do you know where I can find the update.zip file for 13.1.560? Couldn't find it on the forum. I tried locking on 13.1.550, but it's 'semi-bricked', not the latest version. Thank you in advance.

[Android General] marcosvsgouvea:
Before you do 3 and 4

Open Qfil and click on SelectPort button, then you to go Tools and Partition Manager, after that you load the file that shows in step 2. when you do that a poup up should appear then you go through step 3 and 4

Tôi đã đọc dữ liệu, giờ tôi muốn sao lưu lại và tìm để chỉnh sửa thì làm thế nào? Tôi đã có HxD
[Android General] marcosvsgouvea:
you go to your folder "C:\Users\youruser\AppData\Roaming\Qualcomm\QFIL" then u will find a few folders right there, one folder will have the file name "ReadData_ufs_Lun0_0x2188" (something like that), u will make a copy of this file to backup because you will have to modify one
[Android General] marcosvsgouvea:
here is how it gonna be after you modify (if ur SN has 8 chars then you have to do HAHAHAHA, if more you have add more HAHA to be equals on the size.)
[Android General] marcosvsgouvea:
this is the second file you have to modify on step 10
[Android General] Asakura088:
Sau khi chỉnh sửa, tôi sử dụng chúng để thay thế phân vùng cũ đúng không?
[Android General] marcosvsgouvea:
yes, after you modify, you click load button and load the modified file (remmember to backup the original files, because you will need it after you unlock your device, and then you load the original files back)
[Android General] Asakura088:
Mình đã làm rồi nhưng khi vào fastboot để flash sn.img của HAHAHAHA thì máy không nhận flash, khi nạp serial gốc thì máy nhận fastboot.
[Android General] marcosvsgouvea:
You should turn off your device then hold volume up and connect USB to computer, after that you run fastboot comand to unlock, then you disconnect and turn on our device you should see bootloader unlocked, then you load the Chinese rom and load back the files you did backup
[Android General] Asakura088:
Khi download root file về máy sẽ nhận fastboot như hình. Khi download file đã được chỉnh sửa về máy tính không nhận được. Mình đã tắt máy và làm như bạn hướng dẫn nhưng vẫn không flash được sn.img
[Android General] Asakura088:
I have succeeded thank you very much for your kind help. Dear friend

You're welcome !

In part 10. Open a copy and change the last byte from 00 to 01. Should I leave the s/n that i have from stock or also i have to change S/N to HAHAHAHA apart of the change of the last bit to 01?

I mean that i changed S/n in fpinfo. I have to change the s/n in frp too?

[Solved]

Im editon this message because I solved my problem. It was my mistake I was editing wrongly the partitions, or maybe I loaded the wrong partition.tried to do it from start again and everithing is ok now. Thanks for the good and tricky tutorial. It helped me a lot.

[Android General] yenene:
I just got a J606L with similar problem except I think the partitions were totally erased and nand too it seems, I have the serial number of the device from the box but it's not showing in bootloader at all. is there any way to restore it using your method ?

Serial only showing 0123456789ABCDEF

There's no way to get to ADB to flash in locked state. When flashing during reboot I only get "Flashing not allowed in Lock State"

In my case frp and fpinfo are totally empty 000000 files

is it possible to restore original partitions and serial manually trough Qfil ?

Hi, I'm lost on this.

it does not work.

I get the message of * wait for device....

help thanks¡¡
[Android General] Frugipon:
Hi, thank you for the guide !
[Android General] vinaythoke:
This does not work for me. I'm on updated system 14.0.127.

Actually, Fastboot commands don't work in EDL mode. It just shows <waiting for device> on screen.

When I try to go to Recovery mode from EDL mode by using Power + Volume up + Volume down and then go to Fastboot mode (not bootloader), only then the command is accepted, BUT it doesn't flash still. Shows error that says something like cannot flash on locked device.

Is it because I have updated to 14.0.127 and the firmware is now new? Is there a way to unlock bootloader still without the sn.img file of my device as that's now impossible to get from Lenovo's website anymore.

Thank you for your (and anyone else's) help in advance!
