With Launcher Pro, every now and then, I go to the home page and see no icons at all. None. No idea what I'm doing, but it's getting to be very frequent and was wondering if there was any fix with this other than restarting Launcher Pro every single time.

So I rooted my phone for the dumbest reason...so I could take screen shots lol anyways, it's been freezing up with the texting and stuff. I was wondering if there is anyway to unroot it. Please someone help.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thom_house:
That's a funny reason to root your phone.....anyway, just flash a stock rom. Make sure you wipe first.

What is wiping
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thom_house:
Boot into recovery (hold volume down and power at the same time, after white bootloader screen appears, select recovery), now in recovery select wipe data/factory reset, then select wipe cache, then select advanced, then wipe dalvik cache - wiping dalvik is optional in clockworkmod, since it is already wiped in the previous steps (this is the menu and steps for clockworkmod recovery, RA recovery is similar)

Anytime you flash a new rom or kernel, wiping gives you a clean slate helping prevent future issues.

ok i have the evo i am on a stock rooted 2.2 but i cant seem to figure out how to flash the custom rom. i have followed all of the steps but when i go to install rom from sd card and click on the rom i want to install i do not get the option to back up and wip etc... it goes to folders like system/ data and meta.....wtf is this y isnt it working?????? help me

i tried downloading it on my mac and transferring it over and from my phone and the files download in a folder containing seperate folders. but when i download it says zip though
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cfrock:
should be 1 file 'whateverROMname.zip' and it needs to be in root (not in sub folder) of sd card.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kdfrumda3:
its on the root im compressing the files into zips now then ima see if it works
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cfrock:

Try rom manager from the market, it works great, it has some updated roms pre installed or you can download to sd card, very simple to use, for a noob like me.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chriskellyrohrer:
Here is how i do it.

1. Download Rom (the zipped file)

2. Put on SD card

3. Reboot into Recovery

4. Install zip from sd card option

6.Choose the zip file you put on sd card in step 2

5. Reboot

You can find the Droid X bootstrap app in the market. Just download it and run, then select boot into recovery, scroll down to Mount & Storage, mount system, apply zip. This is all assuming your already rooted.

Rom manager doesn't work on my droid for some reason. It reboots the phone but nothing else. My phone is rooted. I don't know if I should buy this and it doesn't work

But thank you for explaining what to do very helpful :)
[Droid X Android Development] Gimpeh:
Rom Manager and the Bootstrap tool are two seperate utilities. Search under koush to find it if your having trouble. You don't need rom manager in order to install roms.
[Droid X Android Development] Venc:
Hey

I downloaded it. I hit bootstrap recovery and then the second link. It rebooted and got to the "green screen". I went to back up and restore and hit it. Now my screen is black. Did I messed up my phone, is it normal and takes a while, or can I just pull out the battery and start fresh??

EDIT: Forget it got it, it was empty, I just hit the power button and it went back to normal....

Actually I'm supposed to hit the camera button not the home button, I just saw that :/
[Droid X Android Development] acidbath5546:
You are definitely NOT breaking any rules.

The leak is just that, a leak of a Verizon test ROM, or perhaps Moto, but leaked software nonetheless.

It is not anyones original work other that Google, Verizon, Moto.

If it was a ROM Developers personally modded tweaked themed built ROM, then it would be inappropriate.

I feel that leaks should always be given to the community for free if someone gets ahold of one, its better for the community.

Anyways...I have installed and works fine...no significant changes from. 13 I have seen.

Cheers!

amen - paying for a leak is just wrong pfft nice community we have here
[Droid X Android Development] LexusBrian400:
The market speed on this leak SUCKS. If you're happy with what you have, stay there. You gain absolutely NOTHING from updating to this.

If you want, I can make you a build.prop that says your running 2.3.15 and it'd be the same thing. You'd never notice.
[Droid X Android Development] Gimpeh:
I had a similar issuing going from the first leak to the second. What I did is simply restored the original market that I had backed up via Titanium backup. I suspect just clearing the cache and resetting defaults will have the same result.
[Droid X Android Development] LexusBrian400:
No, I tried everything. Clearing cache/data did nothing. I did a checkin, a *228, and replaced build.props, everything. Only thing i didnt do was restoring a market from Titanium. Glad it worked for you, but I really dont notice a difference or see any need whatsoever to make this "upgrade".

Look at the thread on MyDroidWorld.com about it lol It seems more like a bug reporting thread than a "thanks for the good work" thread.

I'm also running 2.3.9. Anyone had any experience skipping 2.3.13? Also, is this update just the system files, or does it change bootloader like the OTA does?

How is this a custom ROM question?
[EVO 4G General] Lokifish:
Benchmark standardization would help clear up "A vs B" fight's I've seen in a many threads. I am still working on a battery life bench but here's my proposed testing standards and what I've been doing:

Tests are run from a fresh flashed phone. Software is run as it is (no change in settings). All tests are run three times with a computed average. The phone must be rebooted after each test to clear any data from the RAM. (BTW this takes fffooorrreeevvveeerrrr)

Software used: An3DBench, FPS2D, Linpack, NBench, NenaMark1 and Neocore.

Example:

ROM X Kernel X

An3DBench=3355

FPS2D=28 dev3.5

Linpack=33

NBench=2.69/4.049/0.92

NenaMark1=14.8

Neocore=25.9

Feedback and input would be greatly appreciated, then hopefully an agreed upon standard.

+1 on quadrant

For battery life you could do two tests. One by letting the phone sit idle for like a hour or two and another by playing a movie or something for thats like 30mins or hour long. only thing that sucks is that will take forever!

I'd be willing to test a rom just pm me with witch one you want me to do.
[EVO 4G General] Sporkman:
funny part is these numbers mean NOTHING in the end it how YOUR phone run is what matters
[EVO 4G General] Lokifish:
As a few dev's have stated,and I've been able to duplicate, Quadrant numbers are easily manipulated at the kernel level. That's the reason I didn't include it in my tests.

Yes and no. For example An3DBench, NenaMark1 and Neocore scores mean nothing if FPS2D shows you have a high deviation. A high deviation affects gameplay, video playback, video recording and ui smoothness. I've benched a number of roms and kernels and the ones with the lowest FPS2D deviations stutter less on all areas. It's been brought up many times that the soft side needs help. As a tech going all the way back to 386's and IIe's, I've found that tests like these show where things are good and where things can be improved.

[Android Apps and Games] shocka2430:
Get apkmanager and it will sign it for you. Plus apk manager will let you decompile and recompile then sign so you can mod anything and it's a whole lot easier.

[Android Apps and Games] dkdude36:
Different problem, same answer.

I have been trying to install a custom framework res for a while now. I am on a Mac. I simply have been changing ext to zip, unzipping, making changes, rezipping, using mv command in terminal to change to apk, and pushing to phone. It hasn't even kind of worked. Could someone please help? Are there any steps I'm missing? Do I need to sign the framework res apk?

Please help
[Android Apps and Games] okolowicz:
Post it or post a link to it and I'll sign it.

That said, if you modify one apk it is highly unlikely you will not modify others (which is a good thing). Therefore, I would highly recommend getting acquainted with the proper tools.

First you will need to install the Android SDK on your computer. Here is the link:

http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html Bear in mind that to use it you will also need to install the JDK (Java Developers Kit) on your computer but the links are in the instructions so it is very easy.

In addition to the SDK download 7zip if you do not already have it. It is a free archive utility that enables opening and editing the contents of archives without extracting them.

Lastly, if you just plan on editing images download Stericson's autosign tool so that once you finish changing images you can resign the apk which is necessary to install. However, if you want to delve a little deeper into apps I highly recommend Apk Manager. Not only does it include a signing tool but can also decompile apks so that you can do deeper editing.
[Android Apps and Games] okolowicz:
The framework-res.apk does not need to be resigned. In fact, there are few, if any, reasons why any system app would need to be resigned. Therefore, that should not be your issue.

That said, in the steps you listed above I see several areas which could problems so, it would be beneficial if you provided more information. Here are my initial comments:

1)When you are rezipping the apk are you recompressing the folder created when you unzipped the apk OR, are you selecting the contents of the folder (e.g. AndroidManifest.xml, res folder, etc. ) and compressing them? It is important to do it the second way I described.

2)No need to bother with the mv command as you are using it. Once you've rezipped the apk (it will likely be named Archive.zip) you will need to rename it "framework-res.apk" at which point you should only need to push the apk back to the phone. The process would go like this:

a)put modified framework-res.apk into the tools folder (located in the SDK folder)

b)open up terminal.app

c)type "cd " (without the quotes) and drag the tools folder located in the sdk folder into the terminal terminal window, and press Enter

d)type "./adb remount" (without the quotes) and press Enter

e)type "./adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/" (without the quotes) and press Enter

f)type "./adb reboot" (without the quotes) and press Enter. (The phone will reboot which is necessary to see your changes)

g)Marvel at your accomplishment

Obviously, you should make a nandroid backup of your phone first so that in case you mess anything up you can restore it as if nothing happened.

If you have any more questions simply post them and I'd be happy to answer them. I bought and rooted my EVO the day it first came out which was before there were any Mac tutorials and have since become fluent in adb due to lots of trial and error.
[Android Apps and Games] lucas.scott:
could you possibly help me with my widgetlocker apk? i have adb pushed ( finally learned how to do that on mac) and it still wont install . have contacted ultralynx (he did the mod) but im not getting a response...thank you .
[Android Apps and Games] okolowicz:
Hmmm... If ultralynx did the mod for you it is probably already signed. I've seen some of his threads and he clearly knows what he is doing. And, signing is apk-modding-101.

Where did you ./adb push the widget locker to? /system/app/ or /data/app/? Adb push does not install the apk if you push to /data/app/

My recommendation would be to do the following:

1)Using root explorer, find and delete the widgetlocker.apk from wherever you adb pushed it on your phone. Exit out of Root Explorer.

2)Reboot phone

3)Confirm that you don't have any previously installed versions of WIdget Locker on your phone. From your home screen press the menu button and navigate to Settings-->Applications-->Manage Applications-->All and look for Widget Locker. If you find it select and uninstall it.

4)Assuming the modified widget locker.apk was signed you should not need to mess with adb. You certainly can but it is not necessary and I'd hate to confuse you with the commands. So... Instead, connect the EVO to your computer and mount as disk drive. Put the widget locker.apk you want to install on your sdcard. Personally, I would recommend creating a folder named Apps and putting it in there.

5)Unmount phone as disk drive and unplug phone from computer

6) Using any file manager (Root explorer is fine) navigate to the apk on your sdcard and select install.

If that doesn't work let me know

Thanks for the help okolwoiz. I am fluent in adb and have been hacking for a while. I think I know the problem.
