[XPERIA X1 General] dmxl:
Hi there,

I'm trying to get glossy black bars in the default WM6.1 Xperia X1 theme. For some reason they are flat black by default.

I've searched quite a bit on this forum, and tried the "glossy black bars" executable, but it unfortunately doesn't work.

Does any of you know how to get the bars glossy black?

Thanks in advance!
[XPERIA X1 General] skycamefalling:
START -> Today -> Themes

The standard Xperia black has flat bars. You need to use/install a Theme with "glossy" bars.
[XPERIA X1 General] doministry:
Like the Silver Xperia Theme I use..
[XPERIA X1 General] dmxl:
Thanks all.

I used UItweaker, to get the glossy bars back for the default Xperia theme.

Well I finally got my G1 and dont have to use my Wing anymore. I got the unlimited G1 plan so im all set with that. Ive been lookin on the Development forums about rooting, and everything, but is it really worth it? There seems like theres alot I gotta do, and everything is getting updated fast, should I root my G1?
[G1 General] JackD3ath:
no, you should hack your Wing, now that you dont "need" it. Or go root, it just requires a little reading and some understanding of what you read. I am a noobenstein with android but I got it to work and have a few themes installed. The only thing you might not like is that OTA (over the air) updates wont work, so if they release cupcake wyou will prolly be waiting for it from here.
[G1 General] AsaSpades:
I have modded my Wing, but im going to get rid of it. That is my main concern with Rooting my G1, is the OTA updates
[G1 General] d00m:
If you have no interest in themes or development theres no point in getting root and voiding the warranty. I would just play with the phone for a while and get used to it and then later decide whether here or not you want to root it.
[G1 General] rsfaze:
you say you are concerned about OTA updates. What exactly are you concerned about?
[G1 General] AsaSpades:
Good question, but what I will be concerned about will depend on what is updated ota, but im sure what I use on my rooted G1 will be bettr than what is updated ota.
[G1 General] diabolical28:
Ya rooting is easy. As I remember you from the Herald forums. Also with a rooted phone you can install a Jesus Freak Modded version of OTA updates. Finally as said before when an OTA update comes out Tmo-GooG don't just drop it on every market they "roll it out" so chances are you can probably get it here and flashed well before your "market area" is pushing the updates on to the G1s
[G1 General] Micronics:
Sounds like a big plus to me ;)
[G1 General] Dayzee:
I was undecided too - here's what swung it -

1 - Task Manager for root - this app in the market allows you to actually close apps that are running constantly in the background - it saves a LOT of battery and (to me it seems) makes the stuff you do run after a lot faster. Not to be confused with Power Manager, which can change display settings and stuff, but can't close any apps down.

2 - You can move the Market Cache (which grows like a mo fo) and the Browser Cache (Again with the growing) to your SD card quite easily using the terminal thingy. (Plus other Caches, but those are the two that made most difference for me )

I'm a total noob to Android and linux, but if you follow the clear instructions on here, it doesn't seem that hard and mostly is salvagable - Nothing too scary that can't be recovered from.

[G1 General] Brutal-Force:
Current Benefits of Root

1. Multi-Touch Browser - Ipod like pinch/unpinch to zoom

2. Recovery from Bootloader (Think of it kind of like Windows F8 Safe mode)

3. Back-up from boot loader

4. Use of Task Manager (Root Only) - Shut Down Apps

5. Auto Rotate

6. Themes (Currently maybe 10-15 Themes, Check 'em out)

7. Cache to SD Card (Saves alot of Phone memory for application use)

8. Install to SD Card (Better than just cache-ing) Cons: little more tricky than cache-ing to SD Card, but not much, if you have gotten this far, then you can do it.

9. Install Debian (For true hacks that know how to use Linux)

10. Mod your Start up screens.

All of these things are just for starters. The Cupcake, IF and WHEN it comes out, will surely be hacked (Probably faster than you will get it over the air). All these things will likely be added or improved upon in future updates.

I definitely recommend thoroughly reading these forums, and then start small.

Good luck on your decision.
[G1 General] AsaSpades:
Ok, ive been convinced, looks like I will root my G1. But it seems like there are different ways to do it? What are the differences with these ways?

Also would I need to Hard SPL?
[G1 General] Brutal-Force:
Ways to do it.

Basically all of the "ways" are the same. The differences are just whether your a Windows/Linux/Mac user.

You can Push stuff to your phone using USB. Its much like using the command line in DOS (C Prompt C:\). I prefer to just copy the files over and use the Astro Application (Available on Market). It lets you use the file system like Windows Explorer. You can copy and paste back and forth. The push sytem is a little safer to start in case you have any problems, but if you follow instructions exactly it shouldn't be a problem. There are even Video Tutorials and if you have any questions there is always someone here that can help.

As for HardSPL, yes you will end up with a SPL which is either Hard SPL RC30 ver. 1.41 Mod (Recommended version) , or Engineering MOD which is the version on the DEV phone, or the G1 Original SPL. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=455860

Basically its like this, you will revert back to the original RC29 Software version where the Root Loophole was before T-Mobile Closed it. Using Dreamng.ing you will then download Terminal Emulator from the Market. Type in Telnetd, you will then have Root. Then you will upgrade to JF ver. 1.41, No need to go through 1.31. Then you will be at the most recent Mod update.

From there you can just browse this website for all the tips and tricks associated with a rooted G1.

Hope this helps for starters.

[G1 General] nolageek:
It sounds like you know what you're doing, but I'll offer my advice. Previous to the Android I'd flashed roms to a few WinMo devices. The first time is always the most nerve racking, but after that you see how easy it is and it's addictive. :)

Before I rooted and went to JF's 1.41 firmware I read all the modding threads that had instructions.. they're all pretty much the same thing, just said different ways. I wound up using the ones found here:

http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=Quick_Root (skip to "Downgrade to RC29")

Just make sure you have everything downloaded beforehand. :)

The only snag I ran into was that I couldn't get from RC29 to JFv1.41 the first few times, I kept getting a error saying that a file wasn't found in the update.zip file. Once I installed HardSPL this went away and everything has been peachy since.

The main reasons why I wanted root was custom boot splash screens and the Root Task Manager. Enabling auto-rotation is cool, but I find it anoying sometimes when viewing the device when I'm laying on my bed (it constantly switching on me!)
[G1 General] AsaSpades:
Thanks for all the help everyone, I read that I had to upgrade to JF v1.31 before going to JF v1.41 otherwise I will need to wipe, what will wiping do? Im guessing delete everything?
[G1 General] nolageek:
Yes, it will get rid of your apps and data... however, there's an app in the market called MyBackup. The icon is a flotation ring. If you really don't want to re-install your apps you can use it to back everything up --- but really it's not THAT much of a hassle to install apps as you want to use them. I used it to back up my contacts, home screen icons, my bookmarks and my SMS messages.

A few things to remember about MyBackup:

If you restore your homescreen icons before you install the corresponding programs, you'll have a bunch of broken icons ... not earth shatter, but you'll be all "uhg, ****" afterwards.

Do not restore your google contacts using MyBackup. You will get duplicates on your phone that will then get passed on to your google account. If you do this (don't do this, trust me) do not remove the dupes using the phone -- remove them via google on the website itself. If you use the phone to do it you will no longer be able to sync contacts and you'll have to wipe all over again to fix it. It's much easier to just sycn your contacts to google anyway.
[G1 General] AsaSpades:
Thank you, ill get to it now.
[G1 General] Ryanmo5:
Can also use mybackup to backup system settings which is a time saver as well. Take your time on root steps and download everything before you get going. As far as root goes i wouldnt hesitate, you can always go back if needed.
[G1 General] AsaSpades:
Thanks every1, I have successfully rooted my G1, with no errors at all.
[G1 General] Ryanmo5:
Good deal man have fun!
[G1 General] JackD3ath:
Good Job! Welcome to the club.:):)
[G1 General] Brutal-Force:
Good Job.

See it wasn't too hard, and you have done the hard part already. From here you are pretty much safe even if you completely wipe your G1 out.
[G1 General] Minker17:
I have a quick question. RC29 and 30 are US wheras the just R numbers are UK.

What the heck are all these J ones?
[G1 General] Brutal-Force:
The J numbers

If you mean the JF ver. 1.XX versions, those are the Modded versions from JesusFreke with upgrades.
[G1 General] AsaSpades:
Haha, I love this phone, probably my favorite phone ive owned.
[G1 General] Fear_Zoa:
Yep....With Root...the G1 is quite amazing
[G1 General] AsaSpades:

[G1 General] nabzilla1990:

[G1 General] charlatan01:
Please forgive me if there's someplace this info lives... I couldn't find much though. Is it a safe assumption that most or all of the applications written for the G1 will run as expected with a root'd G?

Specifically, has anyone installed the Touchdown exchange application?

Thanks!

I just got done rooting my g1. my first problem was the formatting the sd card. i used linux to format the partition to fat23 but i guess i didnt do it right. i popped it in my windows pc and it showed the sd card was a raw file system. anyways thanks to xda-developers. the whole purpose of rooting was for wifitether. i bought the app and am enjoying the tether capabilities. which something i miss when i had my treo 680. now what other cool things can i do with root?

[HTC Vox] Addicted2xda:
Get CorePlayer - NOT FREE (or maybe TCPMP - free, but not sure if youtube works)
[HTC Vox] frauhottelmann:
Or get the free Flash Video Bundle, it works with TCPMP! Or use Skyfire and watch the videos (any flash videos) right in the browser!
[HTC Vox] iamcrazi:
Hey

There are a few ways to go about this (in order of my preferance):

1.) Use SKYFIRE browser: http://tinyurl.com/comrrk

this is the easiest and best way. skyfire will play videos directly in the browser just like it does on normal computers.

2.) Use VTAP: http://tinyurl.com/brm7t4

with this you can search for videos off a number of sites and watch em.

3.) Use TCPMP media player: tinyurl.com/wafj8 tinyurl.com/dbdyr3

you need to instal both the files there

everyone recommends this but i don't like it at all. everytime you use the player it leaves the backlight on constatnly till u go to the settings again and it would interfere with calls on my phone too; but youll be able to use internet explorer mobile on your phone and go to youtube directly and open videos

[G1 Android Development] andyandrwew:
I was thinking last night, that maybe by recreating the entire system.img and userdata.img we can add more files the G1 can read.

but

I guess it will take a long time but if all extreme developers pitch in then we can get it done in no time.

Maybe we can add more than just native file types... this could be an innovation.
[G1 Android Development] lbcoder:
What exactly are you asking about?

Running software written in, for example, C?

This is possible right now to a certain extent. Terminal software (i.e. text only) can be cross compiled and run from the terminal. This is not a challenge, or for that matter, even particularly innovative.

What I suspect you are after is more along the lines of running GRAPHICAL software that is compiled for the native hardware. Neat idea, would be ok for now, but this will introduce SEVERE problems once other hardware shows up. Code that is compiled in a native executable format can only run on the same hardware (or sufficiently similar) as that for which it was compiled, so if you had software compiled for one hardware set, it will NOT work on another. That is the reason why the UI is all JAVA.
[G1 Android Development] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Hmm, what about if you had an app that compiled the c code(akin to gcc but in apk form) aand executed the app from there? In theory that'd give you a little app launcher from which you could run native apps... plus it should be a lot faster than the java code of apks

Try looking for the older HTC home plug in and add that to th e kitchen.

Run the kitchen to look for double files then remove th double files from the HTC Home folder. when all the double files are gone, remove all graphics from HTC home folder, bring over theregistry settings from the htc home rgu to the top of the m2d rgu, also move the remaining files from the htc home folder to m2d folder.

Maybe that is what you are missing.
