Hey all,

I recently rooted and put a ROM on my phone and now I'm realizing that I wish I still had the stock ringtones and notification sounds. Is there any chance that any of you thought ahead and backed those up? I'm really used to some of them and I'd love to get them back.

I know, bizarre question, right? But if anyone can help, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!

Download the stock rom and extract them from system/media
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daveyian:
I know this is a "noob search" trap.

But would you kindly explain what tools can be used to extract from a rom, winrar?

Also, kindly link to a rom.

If we can get those into this thread then we'll help the next guy too.

Thanks.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tinpanalley:
Also, I can't seem to find a stock rom? :)

Check the "Slide ROM Bible" stickied in the Development section:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6846969&postcount=1

There you'll find just about everything ROM related for the Slide. Look for ROMs released by CR. They're pretty much the stock, T-Mobile ROM with root.

Most files for Android phones are zip files (even if they're named *.apk). They can be explored with any unzip utility.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tinpanalley:
Thanks. I checked it and didn't find what I was looking for. This is gonna seem ridiculous but all I want is the Modem ringtone that sounds like an old Hayes-Compatible dial up modem logging into a BBS. :)

It's not in the audio folders even though I know it was on the stock ROM. Any idea where I might get it?
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PcFish:
Do you remember what it was called on stock?
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tinpanalley:
Yeah, it was called Modem. Or something to that effect but the word "modem" was definitely in there.

Weird that that one ring would be missing in the ROM I tried to download and extract.
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] sandpaperback:
Good day,

Here's a quick port of Lithid's Elegant Steel theme for #TeamFenix v2.0 and CM6.

For whatever reason, the TeamFenix zip didn't work with CM6, so I made one for each. These are flashable zips, so quick and easy to apply.

I take no credit for any of this. I only know how to follow directions and run scripts. :) All credit and thanks should go to the people who are awesome enough to share their skills and knowledge with us.

CyanogenMod 6 version: http://dc129.4shared.com/download/AiARr9Qo/ElegantSteelSlide-CM6.zip

- Based on stable release

- Adds Quick Search widget & Vending.apk

#TeamSlide v2.0 version: http://dc249.4shared.com/download/JJ0ES3x1/ElegantSteelSlide-TeamFenix.zip

I take no responsibility if this causes horrible, irreparable damage to your phone. But I will feel bad (Catholic guild, you know). I can also offer no real support. As I said, I merely followed directions and ran scripts to create this. I'll do what I can to make changes.

Backup before flashing. Otherwise, enjoy.

Bootlooped on latest cm6 nightly.
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] sandpaperback:
Yeah, I tried the stable CM6 and there were issues. So I guess this is strictly a #TeamFenix theme. I'll port to CM6 when I get home tonight.

Sorry.
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] sandpaperback:
OP updated.
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] wrayc:
Will this theme work on the new CM nightly's or only on RC3?
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] donkey72:
I am running cm6 nightly and bootlooped. Love the concept. Greatly appreciate the effort. Could be operator error.
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] sandpaperback:
I've only tested it on the stable release of CM6. I'm totally little disheartened that it doesn't work. I need to learn a bit more about theming and such.
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] donkey72:
Don't get disheartened. Appreciate you making the effort and putting it out there. There are not many folks left working on the slide. the concept of being able to flash a theme is awesome. I hope someone can help you out.
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] t3mp816:
Bootloop for me. Like they said there's not to many on the slide anymore. Thanks for the hard work and will try again when stable.
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] sandpaperback:
t3mp, are you running the nightly builds or the CM6 stable release?
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] wrayc:
I flashed my MT3G original recipe with Chromatic 4.5 which is based on the CM6 08-08 Nightly, and after deleting the Chromatic boot animation (which was hard to do...his boot anime is Amazing!!!!), this theme flashed with no problems and is running amazing.

Great Work!!!!!!!!!
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] sandpaperback:
Yay! Nice to hear I'm not the only one it works for! :)
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] etu_aty:
Hey man I just wanted to let you know I flashed this on top of chromatic slide 1.4 and it works flawlesly (the one for cm6) I'm loving it, great work bro thanks n_n
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] sandpaperback:
Yay! Another successful flash! :)

I'm going to look for another theme to try this week.
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] jojo7972:
I flashed and it worked fine after rebooting a few times, but I only notice a difference in the notification bar and only 1 icon has changed, did you all see all the different icons come up? I'm running the CM6 nightly (the stable 2.2.1)
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] sandpaperback:
I think the only changed icons are the phone and contacts. I believe the other icons are a flashable zip. I'll try and dig them up.
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] rapidfire224:
if you can, i want the theme to his launcher please, looks amazing! :)

Can someone post a link so I can download this version (CM6 08-08 Nightly)?

I am running cm6-09142010-nightly and my bluetooth will connect and transfer files, but will not push audio to my earpiece.

The android version is 2.2
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] angelo420:
just get cm6.1.1
[myTouch 3G Slide Themes and Apps] fermunky:
Come on guys, remember nightly builds are not meant to be stable. So OP, I wouldn't be bummed that yours doesn't work on the nightly CM builds.

Installed the app just fine, it opens up and gives a network error... I presume we would need to 'cook' it using a working verizon number using the following procedure??

Are you running it over 3G or Wifi?

Did you install it from where you dwlded it or did you move the .apk to a system folder?

I am running JI6, rooted and side loading enabled using 'SuperOneClick'..... a noob with a newfound love for rooting here...no joy with this app so far.

[Captivate Themes and Apps] sanumaj:
Will work only if on Wifi / initiated on Wifi.

You are right, for those of us on att this app seems to be working only on Wifi or if you initiate it on wifi and then turn it off... see the thread below

Do you think the 'Bell Vibrant Modem' is doing the trick for you? I have read in the vibrant forums that this app works on T-Mob Vibrant on 3G... just speculating.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] id10terrordfw:
It is entirely possible, I am running a full i9000 ROM as well. That could be the difference.

i am looking for something like that too, would be very helpful
[Captivate General] krash:
Hey everyone, I know I'm new here.. but I've been searching google and the forums for a while, and I can't seem to pinpoint my problem. (I'm on Froyo)

When I'm at the shell and run rageagainstthecage, it closes the shell.. then I open it again and I'm root. So while root, I copied the contents of Captivate2.2RootPack.zip (su, busybox, sqlite3) to where they are supposed to go, and I chmod'd them to 4755.

However if I reboot my phone and load up the shell again, when I go to "su", it hangs for about 10 seconds and then says "Permission denied".

I obviously missed something.. I just can't figure out what. Anyone have a clue?

Thanks folks.
[Captivate General] Pirateghost:
when you type su, do you have your phone screen on? it will prompt you to allow root access, and you have to allow
[Captivate General] krash:
Haha okay.. I admit that was pretty silly. I did have my screen on but it was locked. When I unlocked it and looked at it, it was asking for permission.

I appreciate it.. :D
[EVO 4G General] Dozenboy0012:
I was just wondering if anyone has ever heard of or used a app store called AndAppStore? Im sure if you google it you can find it but if you experience plz give some input.
[EVO 4G General] Ruki_Uki:
I just downloaded it after reading your post out of curiosity and so far I guess its ok. I like how everything is so organized in categories and sub categories. But it looks like they just have what's already on the app store. I'm going to still play around with it. I still think the best third party app store is MiKandi (18+) lol

Freshhh EVO = iPhone 4 murderer
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] wondercoolguy:
If this hasnt already been done, I think it would be a good idea. A weather app with live wallpapers. It's kinda a rip off of sense/beautiful widgets. The idea would be a weather app that based on the weather in your area a live wall paper would display. So if its sunny you have a live wallpaper that is clear with the sun out. Rainy the wallper is raining so on and so forth. If an app exist already please let me know which one and ill delete this post, if not discuss.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] SBERG117:
If im correct beautiful live wallpaper does what your asking, its in the market.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] wondercoolguy:
It looks like it does but it requires beautiful widgets
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] bigdog_nick:
I love beautiful Widgets with my live weather wallpaper. Highly recommended app.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] ryan75:
There are several in the market other than the Beautiful Widgets one. I personally own:

Radar Live Wallpaper - animated radar loop from NOAA by city

Weather Live Wallpaper by Travis Pearson - similar to Beautiful Widgets but imo not as nice of animations

Also, searching for Weather live wallpaper in the market returned 4 or 5 including the one thats packaged in with WeatherBug Elite.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Airosa:
try Animated Weather Pro.

Not a live wallpaper but it's beautiful as it gets.

I guess the developer could step up and make a live wallpaper out of it.

Animated Weather for Android - Weather forecast application. The exquisitely realistic video effects of cloudiness, rain and snow provide the vivid sensation of current or future weather conditions for more than 50000 locations over the world.

[Epic 4G General] issai:
One of the issues I'm having with Epic and Android 2.1 is functionally by design, but I'm not too comfortable with it.

One of the biggest issues I have is that the updates in the "Notifications" windowshade don't persist. Is there any way to sticky the list? Or is there an app out there which would store all of the Notifications that showed up on the phone?

Somewhat related to the previous idea but taking it one step further, does anyone know of an Android app that acts like a centralized, unified messaging stream? Similar to the concept of the master Messages folder on the Blackberry? Thinking back, if I'm not mistaken, WebOS may have something similarly implementated, but I could be wrong.

For those who don't know what I'm talking about, the concept seems simple enough: to have nearly everything which produces messages, such as SMS, Emails, Gmails, Social Networking apps, etc., all be consolidated into one unified, sticky stream, in chronological order.

There are other valuable features that the BB Messages folder provides, such as the ability to compose a message using nearly any of the accounts it's unifying, right from the BB Messages folder, and to be able to choose which account to use to send the message.

Then, as a business user, I have other gripes such as lack of total all-push and instantaneous messaging, lack of copy & paste in many areas, but those are superseded by my need for a consolidated view of messages. Too many times I've missed reading email B which showed up in the Notifications drop down only because email A also showed up but took up 10-15 minutes of my attention to address, during which I forget about email B.

What do you think?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoshuaMac:
I'm a total noob here and to Android...well to all of this really. I've searched the forums (I swear) to find an answer elsewhere, but found only solutions based on the EVO or Experia, and neither was exactly the issue I'm facing. Here's what I did:

1.) Had total stock phone that got sluggish and lagging after installing JI5 through Kies.

2.) Factory Reset and One Click Root. Phone was noticeably snappier still with the JI5 obviously, so the reset helped that.

3.) Used Rom Manager app to make a backup

4.) Using Titanium Backup removed some of the bloatware (got sick of Slacker Radio and TelNav randomly running when I never opened either once)

5.) Went about re-downloading apps lost in the factory reset and noticed the NY Times app isn't even in the market anymore? Read in another forum about it being copy protected (even though it's free!) and therefore wont show up in the market on a rooted phone. Ugh...

6.) Start reading and trying to learn about kernals and custom Roms, Odin, and flashing...and "holy crap, I'm in way over my head".

7.) Unrooted, and still no apps.

Now I just want to get back to where I was before Installing JI5, have access to the whole market, and be able to get the JI6 OTA update. I've read the "Easiest way back to stock" thread but not sure that's going to fix the copy protected apps problem, and I'm worried that's going to screw up my GPS again (though,to be fair, it isn't that good now), and not sure what that does to my ability to get to JI6.

Guys, I know these questions are long, probably annoying, and possibly redundant. I've learned my lesson, I wanna get back to the shallow end of the pool! Can anyone help get me there?

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoshuaMac:
After more reading, would flashing Bionix 1.7 fix all of this?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 00sivan:
first, check to make sure your phone can enter download mode by connecting the usb cable to the phone and computer and pressing all three buttons until it resets. release the power button when you see the vibrant logo.

if you see a little yellow robot shoveling **** you're in.

if it doesn't. search around the forums for info about Hardware locked phones.

if it does:

download Odin

download stock JFD

use odin to flash JFD with repartition checked and the 512 pit file.

then use odin to flash JI6 with repartition UNCHECKED and the 512 pit file.

then you should be at stock and everything should work as if you never touched it and just updated.

note this will erase your system and data (your settings and stuff).

more info by searching the forums for any of those items.

I dont want to use the samfirmwares.com version because I want the official version. Help!

[Vibrant General] tpreludesh:
im on 1.5.3 and it still wont work, i just tried it again. I tried rebooting the pone and computer and still nothing worked. it just keeps saying unable to update. when you installed kies, did you install it as the UK as your country or US?
[Vibrant General] jscarano:
Mine says "PC Connection only available in idle screen Close running applications" when I try to connect with Samsung Kies mode???? What am I doing wrong?
[Vibrant General] kmfisher:
Back out of everything on the phone, make sure you are in Kies mode. Run Kies first, then connect phone.

I have yet to see on the forum where somebody went from the JI5 from Kies to JI6 either OTA or through Kies. :( I've tried 1.5.1 and 1.5.3.81 for Kies and neither will update my phone.
[Vibrant General] darksonic:
Updating through Kies right now. I had to do the regedit fix for Kies 1.5.3.

EDIT: Whew, phone isn't bricked. Just made it past the Vibrant screen.
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
is it possible that kies may brick the phone?
[Vibrant General] nateball:
How long is the Kies update taking for you guys? I'm pretty sure I'm hung up. It made it through the downloading, and now it's about a 1/4 of the way through the upgrade bar, but hasn't moved for an hour and a half.

I am totally stock. No mods, no nothing.
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
that's not good. if i'm in your condition maybe i'm already sweating. maybe just wait a little more.

i tried to do this but the kies hung up when it's copying my contacts.
[Vibrant General] nateball:
Well, it's not gonna do me any good to sweat. I'm over two hours now of just watching it sit there 25% done. No movement at all, computer's cpu is at 0% use. I think I have to pull the plug and then call Tmob if the phone is messed up.

Just to be clear, I was 100% stock, no root, no fixes, nothing other than apps installed from the marketplace. Here goes nothing...
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
what happened? me too, i unplugged my phone before anything goes wrong.
[Vibrant General] tpreludesh:
ive made the backup of my contacts, but after that it cant continue to update, it fails every time, i guess i am stuck waiting for the ota unless someone has a fix for kies
[Vibrant General] nateball:
My phone now only shows an image of a mobile phone and a desktop with a caution sign in between them. The same image shows if I restart using the power button, pull the battery, shake it vigorously, etc. I do believe I am now the proud owner of a non-functioning phone. Kies will not recognize it, nor does windows recognize it when it is plugged in. Crap.

I guess I'm off to the T-mobile store to try and get a replacement.
[Vibrant General] FamousDroid:
im in same boat i have no clue what im doing wrong? im i missing steps here?

if has any idea what i need to please help.

im a bone stock
[Vibrant General] nateball:
Well, I'm pretty sure that we are now lacking functioning firmware on the phone. I'm thinking a new phone is the way to go, but maybe they can do something at the store.
[Vibrant General] xplanowestx:
Anyone where the update is stuck, you will probably have a soft brick at this point. However, this does not mean your phone is broken completely, it just means you will probably have to get into Download Mode and Flash via Odin.

Have fun :)
