Update... (3.8.2)

-marketfix is back ;)

- you can now save & restore your homescreen (if you are using twlauncher), it seems as if widgets do not get restored =/

- added "clear market cache" script

-little bugfix

If anybody know how to backup the widgets on the homescreen, let me know..
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] tazman171:
On it as always fr4gg0r. Thanks. :cool:
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Fr4gg0r:
Newest version is SGSTools_dev.apk.

Sry, the market version cannot be updated anymore, because I did not backup my certificate when switching from XP to Ubuntu...

With SGSTools_dev.apk you can download & install Browser with useragent setting and the touchwiz launchers modified by gtg.

(Before you can install SGSTools_dev.apk you have to uninstall any previous version..)

I've upgraded to 2.2 yesterday through Kies. Installation of sgs is ok but when im trying to change the startup and shutdown sound value to no bootsound the phone gives a vibration and then the message SGS Tools (proces de.Fr4gg)r.SGSTools) is stopped.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Jim
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Fr4gg0r:
propably a faulty busybox (installation).

I'm experiencing the same thing at the moment (but my device rebooted instead of fc).. -.-
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] tazman171:
Actually the startup sound hasn't worked for me since I flashed Cog 2.2 b9.1.3. It worked on all of the previous versions of Cognition though. I just get no sound, there aren't any messages.

I do have the sound files in the SGS Tools folder as well as the proper system folder locations.

Edit: I haven't loaded the newest SGS Tools, I'm still on the last market version. I just remembered that.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Fr4gg0r:
That will not make any difference. :o

Btw: New version online, which includes GTG TouchWizLauncher with Dena Theme.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] tazman171:
OK Fr4gg0r, wasn't sure. I installed the latest version and still no boot up sounds. I think it's something to do with the cognition rom though. I use Launcher Pro Plus but that's cool that you added the tw stuff. I noticed that in the menu. :cool:
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] ImraanK:
I did the browser upgrade cause i wanted the ua settings...does this browser have any other tweaks besides these settings? .. Cause it cant stream properly.. Videos stutter and when they buffer it bounces from 1 to 100% and i am unable to play the video.. Installed the backup sgs tools made.. So much better.. But i still gave the ua string settings..

Btw im in jpo

I´d like to know a bit about the installing of the GTGlauncher. Is´that like irreversible or what´does your app actually do? Will I be able to go back to the stoch TWlauncher just as easy?

I´m kind of new to rooting.....

Also, there seems to be some new versions of GTG coming up, could I just upgrade to a new version with your app?

Sorry for noob questions.:o
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Fr4gg0r:
The app downloads the launchers, then it backups your launcher.apk and your .odex (if already backuped the backups will not get overriden).

Finally it overwrites the old launcher.apk with the downloaded one.

If you want to go back you could do the following:

su

busybox cp -f /sdcard/sgstools/TouchWiz30Launcher* /system/app/
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] semlex84:
Ok, the installation part seems great.

But getting back, that involves ADB right?

I haven´t tried that yet, could I use Root explorer? How?

Can I use it to remove Google Latitude and Places?

If not, then how?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Fr4gg0r:
That cannot be true.

The changes are done in code and xml inside the .apk, so if you would have restored your backup, your useragent settings would have gone.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Fr4gg0r:
busybox cp -f /sdcard/sgstools/TouchWiz30Launcher* /system/app/

Root Explorer should be able to do the same.. you will find your backuped launcher in /sdcard/sgstools/

It often takes some time, until the fix actually works (up to 24h).

At the moment not.

You could take a look into /system/app..
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] aditya104:
Is that using Root Explorer, you mean? Can I remove Latitude/Places with that?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] ImraanK:

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] aditya104:
Updated to the latest version this morning.

What does the following command do?

Apply Script>clear_market_cache.q.txt

I did it. After that the market didn't work giving error of no data connection. Eventhough I was connected and other apps were able to access the net.

Reboot. Market working fine now. But the old search terms are still there. Wonder what that script did. Also, what can I do with other scripts?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Fr4gg0r:
The script does the following:

busybox rm -rf /data/data/com.android.vending

So it removes all data of the Market application.

I think the old search terms are bound to your google account online...
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] aditya104:
Cleared Google browsing history from website and then cleared search shortcuts history from Google search app in the phone. None of those helps to clear market search history.

Anyways whats the usefulness of other scripts?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Sinsst:
Yeah, about the scripts, do i have to do anything special to make them work, or just have the phone rooted, click the script and auto activates?(i'm asking because it says that it needs to be located in /sdcard/.... for the script to run)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Fr4gg0r:
You need root, and the script must be located at /sdcard/sgstools

The app comes with some prebuilt scripts that look like this

echo "clearing market cache"
busybox rm -rf /data/data/com.android.vending

You could also use a terminal app and do "sh pathToTheScript".
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Fr4gg0r:
Your search temrs are propably bound to your google account (= stored online).

The scripts should be quite self explanatory ;)

Btw: I fixed the issue that the market will only work again after using the clear_market_cache script if you reboot the device..

Market release will probaply be next week under a new package name, since kryptix is not replying to me.

Btw: I added the possibility to create dialer shortcuts.. will be in market version then. ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] dantichrist:
Awesome app! Thank you!

As for the market search history, it is stored on the device. It's located in /data/data/com.android.vending/databases/suggestions.db.

They can be cleared with another free app on the market called "history eraser" I'd link it for you guys but I'm not sure how to do it ;-)

Hope this helps! :-)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Reeby:
I've read here that the Market version is outdated. Is that right? Do I have to get it here somewhere?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Fr4gg0r:
I looked but could not find a folder databases inside com.android.vending :confused:

Btw: the new version is in the market.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] dantichrist:
Hmmm that's strange. I'm still on 2.1 so that may be the reason if you're on 2.2?

Try doing a search in root explorer or any other file manager for suggestions.db and see what you come up with.

History Eraser has Froyo support so it has to be on there somewhere.

If there's any way I can help feel free to pm me anytime :-)

accidental uninstall of stock clock app

This is my first post, because of my first mistake.:o

Afteer updating to froyo, rooting, lagfixing etc. I felt so confident that I accidentally took the original Clock app for the awful clock widget and deleted it with SGSTool. I realized the mistake while tapping the widget clock to set an alarm with no application popping anymore :eek:.

I have the ClockPackage.apk and odex stored in the SD/sgstools folder, thanks to the backup function you wisely implemented.

I tried to reinstall with Astro and to restore with Titanium Backup, but none worked. I think it's because the files should be in system/app to work (but I just guessing since I use android since 4 days :confused:)

Can you suggest a way to restore the clock (I mainly need it for the alarm functions, the widget's clock is working anyway)

Many thanks for the useful job and for any kind of support.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Fr4gg0r:
Search for "sgstools", without spacing. :(

Or scan the qr code in first post.

Yeah, installing the .apk cannot work, because the .odex is needed.

You could execute the following commands via a terminal emulator:

su
busybox mount -o remount,rw /system
busybox cp -f /sdcard/sgstools/ClockPackage* /system/app/
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] tazman171:
Place the clockpackage.apk into the /system/app folder and reboot. Not sure which version rom you using for froyo but if it's deodexed you'll just see apk files in that folder, not deodexed you'll see .apk and.odex files. Hopefully your using something like cognition and it's deodexed and putting the file in system/app folder is all you'll need to do. You can't run it to install it no matter which version of froyo your on, just make sure it's in the above folder and reboot. :cool:

The speed is scaling from min to max constantly, even if I am not touching the phone. Is this normal?

I am currently on CM6.

Also, I just came from a Sprint Hero with CM6 and Setcpu and the speed would stay at the min setting until I touched the screen, in which it would scale upwards.

Any help on this will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antiphon:
If you are using a scaling governor like ondemand or interactive, then yes, your CPU speed will dynamically adjust based on workload. As for the governor not adjusting until you click on it, that's a bug with SetCPU. SetCPU 2.0.3 just came out which should fix that.

Try yourself, and change your dns address with the below settings to enable to watch US channels and refresh.

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Tempott:
Im still pretty new to the smartphone world. But after looking at various apps I noticed the app declares a list of permissions it will need to certain files on the phone. Im just concerned that any one of these apps are gathering sensitive information like our contacts or notes on our phones. How do we know exactly what is being accessed and sent out. I just realized an app like mixzing sends the developers information about the songs we listen to, our playlists, etc.. Now Im not too concerned about this in particular, but how do we know what other information they or any other developer are grabbing from our phones? On a PC you atleast have a firewall, router, security sofware, etc..
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] NoDataFound:
Its interesting that someone finally asked this question. I asked this very thing since i.had my G1.

I am in infomation security and as a security researcher, ive used a rooted device and the shark app which is like wireshark for packet captures from your phone. You could always stick your vibrant on your wireless network and watch the packets there as well.

Take a peek at this screengrab from an alt keyboard install from the sticky page. I would not trust any app at all :-)

On a side note, if you saw the forensics app for these phones...wow
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] junkdruggler:
there have been apps said to collect sensitive data that it doesnt need to function... In russia there was also a tip calculator that sent sms messages to various numbers without your knowledge... at the moment there is no virus, or worm, or trojan for android atleast not on this side of the world...

Just be careful what you download, always read the apps permissions..

Lookout is a great tool to have. I use it on all my phones, out scan every app as you install, if its bad, it'll tell you
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Chief Geek:
SO how man y, if any, bad apps have you encountered? I havnt bought into the whole AV for mobile phones yet. I understand the potential risk, but the real world risk seems minimal to nearly nonexistant at this moment. Now I will probably be one of the first ones to go palm to face when the first virus makes its way around and I get it, but for now i'll stick with the ignorance is bliss unless this lookout app is actually kicking back potential risks.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] zephiK:
It's 0.. I use it mainly incase I lose my phone. That's the thing about Lookout, it isn't intrusive at all. It runs weekly scans (disabled if you want), and scans when you install a new application.

It has a lot of other functionality other than scanning for malicious applications.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bemymonkey:
Shouldn't be a problem. Do you have a permanent recovery on your phone, like Clockworkmod or Amonra?

Is so, try the following:

-Turn on the phone while holding the back button

-Select "bootloader"

-Select "recovery"

Then just active USB Mass Storage mode, pull over the ROM you really want and flash it. No problem ;)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
If the phone is powering on then there is around a 90% chance you can use recovery. And if it powers on at all, your not bricked.
