How did you "swap them"? If you extracted all the files and then repackaged them, I'd say that's why it didn't work. I modify resources by directly editing the APK. Use 7-zip, right-click the file, under the 7-zip menu hit "open archive", and drag and drop the files you changed to their spot. That should work.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] wowthatisrandom:
thats exactly what i did, same way i modified the framework apk... but it just keeps force closing no idea why... figurd id attach the apk for people to try it has all the images in they keyboard folder
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] luniz7:
You can make them a mm theme.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] wowthatisrandom:
im not familiar with w metamorph themes,

ill post the zip of the images
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] luniz7:
Yea post the images and I can put it in a mm theme if you want.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] qmartman711:
Hey all, here is an Metamorph theme for PurpleSwype by wowthatisrandom

Open Metamorph, Extract the theme. Then apply. Restart phone- Yippee-ki-yay:)

**Important. The swype file must be named Swype.apk and must be located in system/app...so rename the apk and/or move it (sometimes its located in data/app)

Let me know if it doesnt work. Attached is a screenshot as well!

Thanks wowthatisrandom!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] wowthatisrandom:
no thank you! thats why i couldnt get metamorph to work i was trying to use the com.swype.inputmethod.apk and it kept failing...

thanks a ton for making it work properly!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] theratdude64:
Sorry to dredge this old thread up, but hey... I searched lol.

Does this purple swype download work on other phones? I'm attempting to edit it myself but I'm not sure if I'm applying it to the apk properly.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbwhat:
so i have had my htc hero rooted for a while now with unevoked and it has been fine well i decide that i wanted to put a custom rom on it because i could stand that my phone was so slow. so i download and installed rom manager and it went well till i rebooted after installing the zip. yes i wiped data and cache. i even took my sd card out while booting no luck. i tried different roms and yet again no luck. i hang on the boot screen even when i try to restore my nandroid what can i do to but custom roms on?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andygu3:
Did you flash your recovery image first?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbwhat:
what do you mean?

when i opened rom manager and choose the rom i wanted to install it asked if i wanted to wipe and backup or something but i know i check both. then i install the zip in the recovery boot menu and rebooted and no luck. then i tried another rom and wiped before installing and still no luck.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andygu3:
At the very top of rom manager, you must flash 2.5.0.1 recovery. Did you do this first?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbwhat:
so im just going to run the ruu and reinstall the phone back to factory setting. then im going to root it then when i open rom manager tell me what to do exactly so i don't hang again at the htc boot screen.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andygu3:
Sounds good, let us know.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbwhat:
still get hang on the boot screen even when i try to restore my nandroid
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andygu3:
So you flashed the clockworkmod recovery, booted into recovery and made a nandroid of your stock rom. Then, what rom were trying to flash?
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrinehart93:
This exact same thing happened to me. What I did to fix it was pull the battery, then wipe everything (dalvik, data, cache), and then rebooted. My phone was able to boot then.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joefried:
I'm having the same problem with rom manager. I just rooted my desire using the unrevoked method, then ran rom manager. I did install the recovery mode first, then backed up the rom. How my desire is just rebooting to the htc screen. How do I get out of this?

Many thanks,

Joe
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joefried:
dumb question, but how did you wipe everything?

Joe
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DikkieDick:
Hey, that's exactly the same issuing I'm experiencing now. Did you solve it? And if yes, how?

Well, a few hours later I solved it by restoring a backup and then booting went well. Also described in a thread on androidforums dot com (I can't enter the link here due to not having posted enough messages) .
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] il Duce:
I don't know if this helps, but I'm pretty sure nandroids are specific to which recovery they were created with, I read that somewhere a few days ago. If you did not have clockwork before, I would try getting the recovery you used to make the nand, install that recovery and then restore the nand. Then try the whole wipe everything and get clockwork and go to town. If you haven't tried RA/Darch 1.7 recovery, I would recommend it, I personally like it better than clockwork, it seems faster, and simpler to use.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PMGRANDS:
Exactly What "Il Duce" Said Will Fix Your Problem, Same Exact Thing Happened To Me, What I Did Was Go Back To Previous Version Of Rom Manager Then Flash Alternate Recovery, AND Regular Clockwork Recovery, Should Be Good After That!

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hydrocharged:
It will not make a sound whatsoever! Everything I try, it only vibrates. I do not have a single option for vibration enabled! I've tried changing various settings through the Settings/Sound and Display submenu, and I've even went into the SMS/MMS application and see nothing in there that is set to vibrate. I've tried my phone in Silent, and it's Silent. I've tried it in Vibrate, and it's Silent. Yet, when I up the volume to max, it vibrates. Anything between Vibrate and Max Volume, the phone vibrates. Anybody have any ideas?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yomaster91:
Have you checked to see if theres a notification/text ringtone enabled? It's possible to set the ringtone to "Silent," while having all of your volumes turned up.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tytdfn:
If that doesn't work also try a factory reset
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stanGib:
from the initial messaging screen click the menu button, settings, scroll to the bottom, there is a notifications settings section, make sure you've got a ringtone selected in there & if you dont want the vibrate in addition, uncheck vibrate.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hydrocharged:
The ringtone is set to tweeters and the vibrate option is not ticked.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dave1977nj:
this is a bug I have had the same problem. I think it's when you get a text while your talking on your phone, but i'm not sure 100% But if you shut your phone off and turn it back on it will fix itself until it wants to do it again
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mauriciorubio:
The same thing as happening to me I shut it off and on several times and it still doesn't work help plz i have also uninstalled the music player and replaced it with another android music player maybe that's the problem?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] warrenb213:
A folks,

I'm starting to make my own complete build based on CM6.

I'm becoming confused though as to how the other dev's are switching ppp on in one build and off in another.

Can somebody please document this.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] thatruth132:
probably best to pm a developer
[Captivate General] reno55:
Id like to test out some of these new roms and being new to this what is the best way to backup what i need (apps, logs, texts, etc) so that upon new flash i can just restore?

I bought titanium backup and have nandroid so if someone could kindly outline the process that would be a huge help!!!
[Captivate General] flashman2002:
Ummm lets see.

-Titanium backup backs up your apps data.

-ROM Manager makes a full backup of your phone at that time.

Run both and you are set so you can flash whatever you like.
[Captivate General] jhernand1102:
Yes use Titanium Backup and back up apps&data, be careful about backing up system stuff as it can mess up the ROM you may try to flash. Use ROM manager and you can make a complete backup of your current ROM. This way you can restore if needed. Read and understand before you try anything and you will be OK...:)
[Desire Android Development] mmastrac:
Hey all,

As you may have seen elsewhere, we've been working pretty hard to bring you unrEVOked 3.2 with out-of-the-box, one-click support for all Android versions on the GSM and CDMA desires.

Available for Linux, Mac, and Windows:

http://www.unrevoked.com/recovery/

Please start by visiting the help page and reading it through:

http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/unrevoked3

1. Windows users MUST install the HBOOT drivers for this to work:

http://www.unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php?id=public:windows_hboot_driver_install

2. Windows users need to uninstall HTC Sync or any other program that might talk to the phone over USB (doubletwist, etc). Disabling HTC Sync from the system tray is not enough. They interfere with the root process and will cause problems.

3. When asked for USB connection type, select "Charge Only" and "Remember this".

Special thanks to Sebastian Krahmer for the rageagainstthecage exploit.
[Desire Android Development] ownhere:
oh my god, can't wait...
[Desire Android Development] b8b9:
Thanks! I will wait for a new masterpiece.
[Desire Android Development] Ronaldo_9:
will this make UK Desire (i think they gsm) S-OFF?
[Desire Android Development] heavymetalmage:
Woot! I got root! (and s-off)
[Desire Android Development] mmastrac:
It's live now!
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
Only CDMA Desire is being made S-OFF it has always been easier for CDMA models to be hacked due to radio differences :(

v3.2:

* Added support for Froyo builds on all supported devices (thanks to Sebastian Krahmer)

* Added support for the CDMA Desire

* Optionally disables security on supported CDMA devices

no mention of gsm desire
[Desire Android Development] heavymetalmage:
GSM Desire should be able to root the OTA (HBOOT 0.92) without downgrade. Although only us CDMAs have S-OFF ;) (Not that I care much, I just want some ROMs now, lol)
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
99% of us all here are already rooted
[Desire Android Development] dosesdoyle:
Is this safe to use on the CDMA version. Basically can someone with a USCC branded phone confirm that it works?
[Desire Android Development] ruffruff:
so, HBOOT 0.92 is supported by revoked already?
[Desire Android Development] heavymetalmage:
Yep, I can confirm.
[Desire Android Development] dosesdoyle:
Will it wipe my apps?
[Desire Android Development] heavymetalmage:
Yep. It's just a few steps less now if you still need to.
[Desire Android Development] heavymetalmage:
Nope. Only doing an actually wipe/flashing a new ROM will do that. Do a backup in recovery after you have rooted if you're worried.
[Desire Android Development] Ronaldo_9:
I tried this 3.2 on my rooted desire UK version.

It failed phone got stuck when it said waiting for root, i just had HTC logo screen.

Took battery out, everything is as it was. I was hoping for S-OFF
[Desire Android Development] AdamG:
Doesn't matter which HBOOT you use now, a hack was found for ADB, so basically every device is susceptible at the moment.
[Desire Android Development] xtcislove:
Will the S-OFF coming for our GSM Desire Owner, too?
[Desire Android Development] mrshark:
as unrevoked announced s-off for gsm desire soon after 3.2 release: http://twitter.com/unrevoked/status/23085304999

if we apply now unrevoked, can we reapply it when s-off will be available, or what? better to wait a little bit? can root be done on an already rooted device? thanks
[Desire Android Development] ruffruff:
Hi Adam,

Thanks for the confirmation. Will try it later. :)

By the way, will you be releasing a new OpenDesire Sense rom soon .. your rom is still my top favorites. :)
[Desire Android Development] DigiPilot:
I uninstalled all the usb drivers, the failed ADB device, then installed the whole HTC Sync software, then uninstalled the HTC Sync portion and left the HTC Driver Installer installed, then it worked.
[Desire Android Development] mmastrac:
We're testing some builds in #unrevokedtest on freenode right now. I think we're getting close to a final 3.21.

SIM UNLOCKing with rooting of Desire

Hi guys,

can someone clarify to me what is necessary to do along with rooting with unrevoked (if anything is necessary) to get the phone unlocked for using any SIM card, not just one it is locked on currently.

Desire is HBOOT 0.92, software is Froyo (android 2.2) 2.09.405.2, and the phone is currently accepting only Telenor Serbia SIM cards.

Do I have to make a goldcard, use unrevoked 3.2.x (when it is out) with goldcard in a phone, and then flash another stock or custom ROM from recovery, to get the phone to be SIM unlocked or it is something else that I need to do to acheive SIM unlocking ?

I was searching around for this on Desire forums here on XDA, but I didn't managed to find a concrete information on this....

Any help would be nice.

Thanx !
[Desire Android Development] ikdedinges:
does it work with hboot 0.93.0001?
[Desire Android Development] mrshark:
just read the thread...
[Desire Android Development] elmalote:

HTC Sync are uninstalled, correct patch driver installed.

How can I resolve this? :S
[Desire Android Development] ikdedinges:
i couldnt find a good answer.

but i rooted and it worked!
[Desire Android Development] Rastaman-FB:
you are asked not to do it until it is released and then you ask for help when you go ahead and do it anyway?

if your recovery is borked you might need to reflash an ruu
[Desire Android Development] BlackWhiteOne:
it works good for me.

it roots my desire with WWE Asia OTA 2.2, HBOOT 0.93.
[Desire Android Development] maulajutt:
I can't . Program stuck at waiting for device

After selecting debugging and charge only mode.
[Desire Android Development] gosa:
Hey guys...

I've been "lurking" in this forum for some time now, and waiting for Orange España to get their thumbs out of their sweet behinds to deliver Froyo I'm getting closer to root & flash an alternate rom with every breath I take.

One question though... Can I - With the help of Unrevoked - root and install the "generic" unbranded Froyo Rom with Sense (RUU something??), or do I have to do something else to "unbrand" first?

Ohh.. I have a HTC Desire - version Orange Spain
[Desire Android Development] LoDRpR:
Well, according to all threads around XDA, using unrevoked will not get your phone SIM unlocked, in order to be able to use more operators..

on the other hand, unrevoked will root your phone, meaning you will be able to write system files in recovery mode, meaning you will be able to flash developer's ROMs; there's no connection between root and unlock, at least not one I'm aware of!
[Desire Android Development] EddyOS:
You need the drivers...
[Desire Android Development] Sevennl:
You can use unrEVOked to root your phone, then reboot into your old rom and keep using it if you like.
[Desire Android Development] Sevennl:
Or he didn't start unrEVOked in administrator mode ( under vista / Win7 )

Important to check : NO HTC sync software, only the drivers, Desire USB drivers installed and start the program in admin mode.
[Desire Android Development] EddyOS:
You don't need to be admin - I did it in Windows 7 Ultimate x64 without being Admin
[Desire Android Development] Sevennl:
I tried it without, well i forgot to start it as admin, and it would not see my phone connected.

Started it as admin, and it started the push immediately.

So it could be depending on your windows 7 install method or your tweaks afterwards :)
[Desire Android Development] DiamondGar:
in a word Yes, you can install any rom off these boards once you are rooted.

I recommend installing cyanogen 6.0.1, it doesnt include sense but has lots of other improvements which more than make up for it.
[Desire Android Development] EddyOS:
No tweaks, it didn't see my phone at first so just installed the drivers from the installer (opened it in 7-Zip) and voila!!
[Desire Android Development] chitowncubs:
So do are all HTC Desire (BravoC) US Cellular phones have a HBOOT of 0.98 ? Because I don't see anyone talking about this.. I've rooted my phone perfectly fine the first time using Win7 (using Unrevoked 3.2) .. the unoffical one, since its not on the site anymore .., now I either wait for an update for the root to make it offical and I'm also waiting for some nice Custom ROMs, since it looks like there are none out there that are stable enough for me to take a look.
[Desire Android Development] crfrank:
ieftm has a way of doing it - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cwRcyAf95Z0 - but it's not being made public yet (think there's an issue over it using proprietary HTC code to do it).
[Desire Android Development] gosa:
- Well... my point was that I'm tired of waiting for the official update to 2.2 from Orange, so I want to use Unrevoked to root, to be able to put a rom with Froyo on it instead. And since that is not out yet I guessed there would be a dose of "debranding" included...

Perfect, then I feel I can go ahead and try this during the weekend..

Well... without knowing anything about Cyanogen I just want to say that I happen to like Sense quite a lot (haven't tried anything else to be fair) and I don't really have any great requirements from "extras" (whatever they might be) For the moment I'm quite happy with being able to put a few of my apps on SD and maybe being able to take a screenshot or two, along with maybe removing an app or two that I don't feel I need.

That is why I would prefer to get the "original" Bravo Rom (Froyo version - it's named something like RUU-blablabla, right?) installed after rooting, and then re-rooting again (if needed) to be able to do that little extra.

And when (if) S-OFF comes to the Desire GSM I'll deal with that and evaluate whether or not it's interesting for me.

Anyway - thanks for your feedback!
[Desire Android Development] The_Moves:
I've rooted my US Cellular CDMA Desire when using a test build from Sept 8th - however I don't believe S-Off is enabled as I can't remove apps fromthe /system/app folder. In order to do this I have to boot into recover mode. Also, when I try to do this with Root Explorer, remove an .apk and change the directory back to R/O, it reboots my phone.

Anyone have any ideas how to get my S-Off enabled? Also, was my original non-rooted ROM saved when the phone was rooted? The reason I ask is if I might have to re-root my phone/run Enrevoked again. Can I do this with my phone rooted already, or do i have to take my phone back to the original non-rooted rom?
[Desire Android Development] DigiPilot:
To get S-OFF on the CDMA Desire, you'll need to re-run unrevoked. Before plugging in the USB cable into the phone, click on the File menu of unrevoked and select the "Disable Security on the Phone" option. If that option is checked when you plug in the phone and re-run the procedure, it will give you the S-OFF when completed.
[Desire Android Development] chongreene:
For all the devs out there who need a tester, I have a rooted S-Off CDMA Desire and would be more than happy to offer to test any ROMs that are out there. Just let me know.
[Desire Android Development] craoul:
I can confirm root for 093 hboot on gsm desire with unrevoked 3.2 test but no S-OFF. Good job. But waiting for S-OFF also.
[Desire Android Development] killer_metallica:
It's stuck on "waiting for device. enable USB debug"

I've only installed HBOOT drivers, and don't have anything else installed (as I booted Windows form my Mac just to run this)

Any help ?

Thanks A lot ivarson_swe...you made my day. rooted my HTC Desire on 0.93 and latest android version of 2.10. and it worked like a charm.
[Desire Android Development] rippe93:
Hey all !

I just registered and got interested of rooting ! I have had HTC desire for 3 months. It is not a contract phone. So is this cdma or gsm and whats the difference? Im running the newest update from htc 2.10, but i dont what is the version of my bootloader?

And could someone give me instructions in nutshell to root with unrevoked ? Whats the meaning of the recovery thingy ?

My main reason is why i want to root is that i want percent battery thing and better wifi hotspot.

Thanks ! :)

-rippe
[Desire Android Development] sam9s:
Is the final version ready????
[Desire Android Development] BlackWhiteOne:
not release yet.
[Desire Android Development] Mekrel:
GSM vs CDMA info here, although some of it is out of date such as they mention EDGE as being GSM's answer to a fast downstream data link..

With your device turned off, turn on your device whilst the volume down button is held. You'll see a HBOOT number listed, this is your bootloader version.

RE: Guide, search for a thread made by 42turkeys, he has made a guide.

Recovery: Think of it as a partition on your phones internal memory, and on this partition there is a recovery console that needs to be installed.

You boot into this recovery console in order to flash new ROMs, Radio's, Mods and do backups etc.
[Desire Android Development] rippe93:
Aa i didnt know that there are different.versions of desire !! Thanks for your quick reply. Im on 0.93hboot ! I think I need to do some research and learn a bit.of rooting before I root the device!

Thanks a lot !

[Desire Android Development] SpideRMaN-17:
Now that I have root (no S-OFF) using unrevoked Version 3.2 (not 3.21) on GSM SLCD Desire HBOOT 0.93.0001 with Froyo 2.2 OTA Update + latest OTA Update . . is there a way to unroot without loosing data please ?

Thanks :)
[Desire Android Development] DennisG1:
does the testversion of 3.21 can make my gsm desire s-off? bad english....i know :-P
[Desire Android Development] roger99:
Nothing wrong with your English there m8, I'm English and my efforts can be worse than that sometimes ;)

Anyways, as far as I'm aware 3.21 is a bug fixed version of 3.2. So no s-off for our GSM phones as of yet. Shouldn't be long now though :D
[Desire Android Development] BlackCat21:
It worked well on GSM Desire 0.93 and latest update. Used the mac version of the test build. I have noticed huge battery drain problem. Don't know if rooting caused it or any other program for rooted devices that i installed. I haven't tried any custom roms yet.
[Desire Android Development] BrainMcFly:
i have some questions:

afaik unrevoked can root a HTC-Desire with Froyo and SLCD

So, is the HBoot downgraded from 0.93 or not, an when not, does ist affect the function of custom roms?
[Desire Android Development] Mekrel:
No, Unrevoked doesn't downgrade HBOOT - it uses a hole in ADB to change HBOOT to allow root access.
[Desire Android Development] teppic74:
It doesn't alter HBOOT (currently, gsm anyway). It roots the ROM/updates recovery as it did before, it just uses an exploit that now works on Froyo based ROMs.
