Hi guys,

I wanted to give cooking a try and was wondering what the easiest approach for me would be.

My goal is to use the official ROM as a basis and

a) remove an app such as CoPilot

b) add an app such as Pigeon

What tools etc. would I need?

Thanks for any hints :)
[HD2 General] troed:
remove/add prgs is no ROM-cooking, it´s removing and adding apps .........
[HD2 General] pub00515:
So then tell me, how can I remove CoPilot? ;)

Anyway, the two points were starters...

I'm sure I will do more modifications later on.
[HD2 General] EddyOS:
Search for 'kitchen' and you'll get more info on it
[HD2 General] troed:
Move Copilot-prog to SD-card with Resco-Expl. and then uninstall it, Afterwards make a reg clean-up with reg cleaner (a little bit crude though but worked nicely for me ;) )
[HD2 General] kilrah:
If you do that there are still files in the ROM you can't get rid of. Plus a duplicate of what you just deleted, don't forget the files that are in Program files after a hard reset must come from somewhere ;)

Complete removal can only be done by cooking, and it saves quite a bit of space indeed.

Hi!

I just got my Nexus One last week and its my first Android phone, and so far I love it!

There is one thing that I want to change though, the appearance of the emoticons/smilies in SMS and the "syntax" to use. Right now I have to write :-) to get a smiley but I also want to be able to write just :)

Is there a way to change this or has someone else maybe already done this?

For the new emoticons I don't really care how they look, just some regular yellow smilies.

Can this be done?

Thanks!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] waterproof125:
+1 on this, it looks nice on my end with the coloured smiley but if the receiver isn't on android it looks kinda stupid.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bebou:
+1 and Up

It would be very nice if someone find a solution to change the combinaison of smiley's [ :-) to :) ] and also change the pictures of the smiley's
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Jimmarn:
I've seen a rom for the Desire with changed smileys. Xperia ones on it. I'd love those for my Magic aswell.....

If someone finds out how to change, message me asap! :D

Oki, I just found it out! :D

Not the code combination, but the smileys, the emoticon pictures.

Ofc you must be rooted, and get to the "framework-res.apk"

Then you change the .apk to .zip or open it with 7zip or winrar.

in framework-res.apk go to: framework-res.apk\res\drawable-mdpi-v4 (this may be different from phone to phone, look in all the "drawable" folders to find: "emo_im_undecided.png" every smiley is there with names starting with "emo_im_" Change them in photoshop and you got yourself some different looking smileys :D

If you change .apk to .zip remember to change it back to .apk after editing it. and allways backup! incase something doesnt work as it should
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Kermode:
God, I hate that "of course you must be rooted" - NO, I don't want to root - this should be possible in normal versions. Damn google.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] SiL3nTKiLL:
i would like this too!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Vuska:
Can you explain these step by step ?

Do i have re-sign 'framework-res.apk' after i replace the icon ?

:confused: i already sent 'framework-res.apk' to my HTC, but why still green smiley appear not my smiley :(

Please help
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] GabrielSousa:
thanks a lot, but how we remove the nose ? the "-"

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sorbe88:
smiley syntax :) not :-)

+1 on the syntax of the smileys.

An easy way to change the appearance of smileys is to use handcent as your sms client btw - you can download smiley packages which display different images, and you don't have to be rooted for it to work.

But does anyone have any idea how to make Android display :) etc as emoticons as well as :-) etc? Most non-smartphone users, as well as iPhone and BB user use the former syntax. It's so irritating that Android uses the latter.

I assume it's necessary to modify either a system framework file, or a file within the mms apk, but I'm no developer so have no idea where to start to tackle this!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] zahinasaur:
anyone ? *sigh*
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] himanshu.sharma:
plzzz... find a solution for this... :(
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cdesai:
Changing icons is easy, but syntax hard, you gotta edit some jar files aka smali editing.

Or if you are feeling adventurous, get the source and find a way to change it (I'll try when I have some free time)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] psrfraxxerz06:
Got the same problem, have replaced the framework-res.apk still the green smilies. any solution? :mad:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Cryss:
U need to change smileys from MMS.apk and framework-res.apk :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Talminator:
I agree about the syntax problem, I'd really like a solution to this if someone would be kind enough to help. Being the noob that I am, I tried doing a bit of tweaking in the mms.apk file, but it made no difference when I pushed it to my phone.

All my friends use the :) syntax instead of :-), so I tend to just avoid typing emoticons at the moment :(
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kHjz:
Doesn't work

Hey dude, I tried your method and I have the same bot smileys on my xperia mini, but when someone texts me I get the same smilies of the SE (although the ones in the framework-res.apk folder are the green bot smileys which i want them to be on my phone)

Tell me how to get those bot smileys :( I want them badly
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] casparke12:
framework

edit framework-res.apk
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kHjz:
I tried that, and the files emo_im_xxxx are all those green bot smileys, but what all I do get are the standard SE's smileys :/ I edited framework-res.apk, but somewhere I read that I need to edit mms.apk too, I don't have it though!

Hello, all.

I have 2 phones: IOLITE and Touch cruise.

I'm working in some place with strange GSM situation: my old cruise is on 3G network with full coverage, and Iolite shows 2G only status and low coverage..

Please assist how to solve the problem.

I checked my network connection properties on both telephones and it's configured for "Auto"...
[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] Frank C:
Strange indeed..suppose you have the same operator for both? Or do you switch sim cards?

My experience is that I have better coverage with 2G than 3G. And therefor have a 2G/3G switch in my communicator.....also to save on battery.

Attached is a small program to check signal strength more in detail (per %). You can use to see how the pattern you describe develops. I do not use this programm anymore.

I have owned both a Touch cruise (Polaris) and have a Iolite now but can not say that there is a difference between the two (quality of radio).

Perhaps some other members can add.....:)
[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] torrentonly:
demon-resident: Maybe you already solved it. But for others. You must also look into Phone settings -> Band tab and keep both options on auto.
[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] demon-resident:
I suppose I have a RADIO problem - my IOLITE phone never gets 3G option...

May be some radio re-flash will solve this issue?
[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] Frank C:
Or try hard-reset......back-up your data first......
[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] demon-resident:
can some one suggest me a new RADIO ?
[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] Frank C:
Have not seen a seperate Iolite radio Rom circulating here.....only 0.41.30.12.....:(
[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] demon-resident:
This radio is with 3G function?
[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] Frank C:
This is stock Iolite radio.....and for sure can handle 3G......;)

Check your boot screen which radio you have (when you do a soft reset).....the black screen with red letters....."R" is for radio.....
[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] demon-resident:
the radio is as previously mentioned - R 0.41.30.12

I performed a Hard Reset, but unfortunately I can't see a 3G icon on my phone...

May be I need to reflash a radio rom anyway?

If so, where can I get this radio?
[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] Frank C:
Ask guys like Billabongstaff, serfer222 or roo303oom if they can make for you a seperate Iolite radio rom....install with RUU

[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] torrentonly:
demon-resident: Did you try to look at settings as I wrote i my previous post? Try to look in Phone setting options. One tab is called Network and this is not as important as another tab called Band. In that Band tab, try to manualy select different options from the list (Select your network type and Select your GSM/UMTS band) and apply those settings. You will see, if something changes.
[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] demon-resident:
On "Network Type" I have next options: Auto, GSM, WCDMA

On "Band": Auto, UMTS(850+1900)+GSM(850+1900)

I suppose that I have no GSM 1800, UMTS 2100, UMTS 850 etc...

It looks like I have a BAD ROM version
[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] Frank C:
There are meanwhile some nice custom Rom's available to choose from......give it a go....:D
[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] torrentonly:
demon-resident: Yes, that is the core of your problem. Network type is ok, but in band, you should have these options: Auto, GSM(900+1800)+UMTS(900+2100), GSM(1900+850)+UMTS(1900+850) and UMTS(2100+800). New ROM should solve the problem.
[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] demon-resident:
Yes,

please can you provide me with link to new ROM with stable radio inside.

I prefer an original ROM..
[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] torrentonly:
demon-resident: Try this one -> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=522934
[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] Frank C:
This rom is with standard Iolite radio as you now have......
[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] demon-resident:
The ROM has been downloaded.

But to flash it I need a Iolite Hard-SPL Unlocker...

I downloaded it from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=552481 but I have a problem with openning the EXE file inside the zip. This may be a problem of the file, or may be a problem with my PC. It strange, but no problems with other files....

Can some one "repack" it for me? or may be some one has an alternative link with other "unlocker"?...

I posted this question on the "Hard SPL" post.. but no answer till now.
[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] Frank C:
When your anti-virus program does not like it, disable the program for a while and try again.....
[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] demon-resident:
Yes, but I'm not a system admin on this notebook... :(
[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] torrentonly:
demon-resident: Then you must do flashing on another computer. Repacking of archive will not help at all, because HardSPL program is still the same.
[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] demon-resident:
Hello, all.

final updates:

Device was flashed with RUU_Iolite_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.11.707.1_Radio_Sign_12.41.30.16_0.41.30.12_Ship - unsuccessful, because it stacks at "customization" process.

-> RUU_Iolite_SMC_Voda_WWE_1.12.990.2_Radio_Sign_12.41.30.16_0.41.30.12_Ship.exe - this ROM flashed OK..

Conclusion:

now I have all types of frequencies in the "band" tab...

but still only "G" icon is on my screen.. and no "3G"... I don't know-may it work like that? may be there is no "3G" icon?
[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] Frank C:
Well you have a 3G phone so it "should" be in.....at least a step further with all the band frequencies....:)

If you do not use data transmissions but only calling than my experience (vodafone Holland) is that 2G has better and more reliable signal strength.

Think your 3G icon is in shellres.192.dll.....in windows folder....can you check?
[Touch Cruise 2 ROM Development] demon-resident:
Yes, I hope that may be a problem with an "3G icon" only.

May be I can run some test (3-rd part soft) to check what is a real-time frequency my phone on?

I'll compare it with my HTC cruise (old)....

Can you please suggest me this soft?

I'm trying to flash my Hero using the guide on Theunlockr

http://theunlockr.com/2009/08/27/how-to-load-a-custom-rom-on-your-htc-hero/

In step 8 it says "Select Wipe from the menu, then select Apply Update.zip"

Problem is, I have several wipe options!

Wipe data/factory reset

Wipe Dalvik-cache

Wipe SD:ext partition

Wipe battery stats

Wipe rotate settings

Which one is the correct one?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Wipe the first two. If you use apps 2 sd in the future you may have to wipe 3 as well but I am guessing you just need the first two.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] zaphyr:
Thanks for the quick reply! I did the first one, but the second one gave me an error: "Error: Run 'wipe dalvik' via adb!"

So I did

C:\AndroidSDK\tools>adb shell

wipe dalvik
unmounting /data
No ext partition found!

I'm surely doing something wrong here...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vido.ardes:

Does anyone know how to backup playlist in Music tab of SENSE?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] aho77:
The only way to backup the Manila Playlist, is to backup the whole Library.

You can fild the Library here: \Application Data\HTC\AudioManager_Eng\AudioManager_Eng.vol

After a Hard Reset or flashing a new ROM just copy "AudioManager_Eng.vol" in the folder "Application Data\HTC\AudioManager_Eng".

I've been following a lot of these threads for a while and having decided on my ROM of choice (toms) and doing as much as i understand i've hit my wall when it comes to knowledge of the system! The background i use is quite light and makes it difficult to read the text under certain tabs like the Text tab and the twitter tab. Is there a way i can simply change the colour of the text?

Is there a way i can do it? i'm a quick learner :):confused:

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pirzrk:
Hello,

I made a nandroid backup of my HTC Hero and I'm playing with the files generated : I used the split_bootimg.pl script on my boot.img and now I have the boot.img-kernel and boot.img-ramdisk.gz files.

I created an Android 1.5 AVD named myavd.

When I try to launch the emulator with the following command line :

emulator -debug all -avd myavd -kernel boot.img-kernel -ramdisk boot.img-ramdisk.gz

nothing seems to happen...

However, when I launch the emulator with the following command line :

emulator -debug all -avd myavd -ramdisk boot.img-ramdisk.gz

(thus loading with the kernel included in the SDK), the emulator appears on screen.

Isn't it possible to use the emulator with the kernel dumped from the HTC Hero ? Or am I doing something wrong ?

Thanks a lot in advance.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
As far as I'm aware, the emulator is emulating a specific set of hardware, and thus requires a specific kernel.

Regards,

Dave
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pirzrk:
Thanks,

Then I have another question : is it possible for the emulator to emulate the characteristics of the HTC Hero (mimicking his behaviour) ? If yes, does that mean that the emulator source code must be modified and rebuild to take those characteristics into consideration, or can that be done by passing specific command line arguments ?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Swedeman1:
I would just like to make a formal appology on behalf of the peoples of Sweden for the idiot who was posting yesterday under the nom de plume 'poorboy1' - in no way do we condone behaviour like this in Sweden and I'm glad to see you have dealt with it in an appropraite manner. This is a very serious and upstanding site with moderators who are in no way overzealous. It's not like we don't have moderators here in Sweden, with their own moderators sub-forums where, if the general, easy going populace were to see the behaviour of these moderators, I'm sure they would regard them as fine upstanding citizens - in no way little people pumping themselves up and ironically displaying the behaviours they are supposed to moderate or understanding a pun on the word 'moderate'. Just to clarify once again - appologies for anybody displaying a bit of humour that isn't along the lines of Star Trek, Dr Who or that isn't technically / geek oriented, for example:

Did you hear about the broken hard drive? 0 - The zero in this indicating, of course 'no', with the recipient of the question genuinely not having heard that the HDD (to use an abbreviation for space saving purposes) was broken - and let's face it - that gag was funny

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] dennisv9:
question;

i've got a mda vario III aka htc tytn II (Kaiser) which cannot make an usb Active sync connection. the usb connector seems not really fine, it charges over usb

BUT in bootloader menu i get an usb connected message even if i do not have an usb cable connected. so my usb connector will be shot i think

what do i want to accomplish:

i need to change the language from german (german htc rom installed) to the either the WWE or NLD htc rom.

i downloaded both original htc roms, but i need to flash it via micro sd since i do not have a working AS connection. i have hardspl installed, and i think the previous owner sim and cid unlocked it. but i do not know for sure and cannot test it because i cannot run the unlocker program again! (it had hardspl on it, and it is sim unlocked. so i believe it is cidunlocked too?)

but if i extract the image i get amongst others 'RUU_signed.nbh'. i can rename that to KAISER.NBH (or something like that) and if i put that on my microsd card it 'might' just install the original htc rom back. but, will the hardspl that i have flashed be gone also! i only want it to update the radio rom and os, not off course overwrit my hardspl. since that is the only way to flash the device, i cannot risk loosing the hardspl.

Hi all,

We have 2 HD2s which I have cofigured to connect to our exchange server via wireless activesync. Both are running the same ROM (T-Mobile, I know...) and have identical settings appart from the user name and password.

Mine works fine with 'As items arrive' set for the sync schedule yet my bosses simply won't update. It is showing as 'connected' but no updates ever arrive. If I set the schedule to every 5 mins it appears to work.

I know 5 mins isn't a long time to wait but you know bosses!!!!!!

Any ideas would be fantastic!

Thanks, Tom.:confused:
[HD2 General] the_tominator_1982:
Update

It now appears that both handsets keep losing and cannot reestablish their connection. ActiveSync keeps reporting various errors including 0x80830002 and 0x85010018. The only way to establish a connection again is by syncing via USB. After disconnecting the connection stays live for a few mins then drop.

This had all been working fine until a few days ago.
[HD2 General] tintan:
Don't know your errors, but:

Have you activated Microsoft Direct Push in your Phone?

Maybe its a Server-Setting for the User? Or the Authentication SSL/NONSSL.

Do you have to install a private/self generated Certificate?

I would first Check the following:

can your connect via OWA?

Export the Cert (dont forget Root/Intermediate Certificate) install it on your Phone.
