The problem we have now is, similar to what I thought would be the problem with the other zip I posted, but wasn't, because it was the stock Fresh framework-res, is that the riptide framework-res appears to have used a kitchen to create the circle battery, etc, and I've been finding this modifies the stock XML files and create problems with the hex edits, etc, potentially.

So, be sure to nandroid and try and flash the attached, and see if it works for you. Again, I'm not 100% confident, based on others findings who ran into similar issues with these auto-generated framework files that for some reason are changing out the folder names, etc...

Myn's warm twopointtwo

I am new to my rooted EVO, I have Myn's warm twopointtwo rom and have tried to use this hex method to change lockscreen. I followed original directions and when I was done, rebooted, it still showed "Sprint" on lockscreen. Everything else seemed to be the same, but finally noticed all of my contacts had been deleted. I restored nandroid and they are back. Has anyone gotten this to work with Myn's? or Did I do something wrong??
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Post up your modified framework-res.apk and I'll take a look, though, if nothing changed at all, obviously something wasn't done right.

Pushing to a live phone can sometimes cause issues like you described, as mentioned earlier in this thread.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] sumlaan:
After going back through my steps, I believe my problem is the file I put back into layout folder is listed as a text file, not an xml like every other file in that folder. I tried to rename the file but in windows 7 it does not even show a .txt extension at the end it just shows .xml.

edit: I had to go into control panel and unhide known file extensions and I could delete the .txt extension
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Please don't take this the wrong way, but there's a certain minimum level of computer proficiency that you're going to want to have if you want to start tinkering around with your phone. Understanding the simple task of modifying a setting in Windows to view file extensions should be one of them.

In Windows-7, click on the 'start' button, and in the input box type 'show extensions' and click on the result under the 'control panel' listing, and find the check box option that says 'hide extensions for known file types' and uncheck.

Now, when you navigate to the file, you will see the full filename, including extension, whereby you can rename it. Or, better yet, once you dropped it back into the apk, the extension should show, and you could rename it while right inside utility.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] sumlaan:
I did say noob here sheese. Now my question is I used 7-zip to extract .apk and I dropped file into the folder, how do I close and send to the phone. Your command pushes .apk back to phone, but I need to zip or convert this open folder back to .apk to push back?

And my intention of posting my dumb error of not changing extension properly was posted just in case someone else made that error and it could help them.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
You don't want to extract the APK with 7zip, that's not necessary. Just open it up using 7zip, navigate to the folder, replace the XML and push it back.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] sumlaan:
Lockscreen still displays 'Sprint'

Im sorry for being a huge pain, but I am attaching my edited hex file. After finally figuring out how to get the file put into .apk and pushed back to the phone, it does not display correctly. Any help would be greatly appreciated
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Which lockscreen are you using?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] sumlaan:
Default lock screen on Myn's twopointtwo
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
I don't know what the default lockscreen is on Myn's. Is it the vanilla android lock (slide tabs left / right for unlock / slient), or HTC lockscreen slide bar down to unlock?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] sumlaan:
I have it working,now.. i did not understand vanilla or htc or the difference. It may be time to unroot my EVO and sell or give it away. I have alot to learn..(hangs head in shame)

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
While tedious, I suppose you could install a hex editor on your phone to modify the xml file:

Then use NinjaMorph to replace the XML in the apk file directly on the phone as well:

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] evohack99:
Okay, new to xml code, I kinda need the basics on how to do this from my phone, iv taken computer programming, um which file was it again that would change the "sprint" at the top of the vanilla lock? Where is that found? I looked around layout in the frame work res.apk, but not quite sure , thanks for quick reply! After I get this done I'll put up a tut on it and give you all credit thanks.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] evohack99:
Okay throw me a bone here, I dl the two apks you told me, I opeend up hex ed, went opened up frame work res apk, then it shows a bunch of code strings, how do I find the right code? I converted "sprint" into hex and serched that with no luck, I really don't understand what program I run first, the ninja one, or hex ed, I'm feeling stupid

Sent from my netarchy_toast, froyo beast of a machine evo!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Did you read the first post in this thread? All I'm going to do is repeat myself telling you what to do here...

In summary, download the attachment in the first post named 'keyguard_screen_tab_unlock.xml.txt', remove the .txt extension, open it in your hex editor program, change the 20 char value from what it is set to to what you want it to be, again, per the OP instructions. Save it. Use NinjaMorph to open your framework-res.apk file, navigate to the folder where the newly modified XML file you edited goes, and drop it in. Reboot, enjoy.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dwertz:
First, most important, use AmonRA 1.80 and do a back up so it backs up your WIMAX.img. There has been know just flashing the radio if the instructions are wrong that it deletes your RSA keys.

were is the unknown sources check box?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
You have to enable sideloading. With the captivate it is not available through settings because of at&t

Roms like cognition if you choose to flash it will enable sideloading.

Make sure you get rom. Manager from the market and read up on it

Use appbrain from market to easily restore all apps. Without enabled sideload.

I am a noob as well, but these are key steps before you start messing around especially rom manager

Titanium Backup Answers

For the many people who are having problems with Titanium, 3 things:

1 - there is only 1 version of titanium. what makes it the paid version is a text file called titaniumBackupLicense.txt that contains your info. it goes in memory, just like the titaniumbackup folder.

2 - you must have debugging enabled or it goes VERY slow

3 - in titanium, press the menu button, got to preferences. All the way at the bottom is "app processing mode". change to "auto, indirect" and reboot, then run the batch.

I hope this helps
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] panflute:
scattered information

I have had many phones and have always looked here for improvements. My Captivate Galaxy S is the best one so far. This info about first having to sideload the phone before using Titanium is key. Had I known my phone needs to be flashed in order to use Titanium I would not have purchased it. And all of the other info about odin, appbrain, rom manager, etc is scattered everywhere. There is nothing straight ahead about any of this. And sometimes when people put of good info with good intentions they assume you know all of the terminology and tech talk which is not always the case. Its easy to make a mistake since all these tools are dependent on each other. I want to backup my apps, data, and rom, but I am only willing to go so far and do not want to flash my phone right now since there have been way too many screw ups. I am content to wait for the offical AT&T release of 2.2. Sometimes when someone asks a question he/she runs the risk of being ridiculed for not reading thru everything. I don remember it being so nasty here before. I'll continue to try and FIND and DECIPHER what I need to backup the phone but asking a question can be hazardous to your health.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
first of all. all the info is here. its important to read and understand what it is you are doing before you dive in. I realize that its all scattered around, but just figure out what you want to do and then focus on understanding that one thing. then move on to the next.

secondly. you do not have to flash a rom in order to enable sideloading, have a look in the dev section, or in the apps section. there is a one click decrippler that will enable sideloading, or it can be done manually. It is not hard if you follow directions.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] panflute:
ok

Thanks for the reply.

I rooted my Galaxy S, installed the USB drivers, installed NET 4.0. Ran one click OCD and it said it was sucessful. I did this in order make Titanium backup work. But Titanium is still giving a message saying to tick "unknown sources" under applications in order to enable restoring apps, however unknown sources is still nowhere to be found. I only saw the one comment about unknown sources that said i needed to enable side apps to make it visible and that it is not there because of AT&T restrictions. Since i enabled side apps is there something else that Titanium requires to work properly? If I can't get it going what would be a good second choice for making backups? thanks
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] techmik67:
The unknown sources checkbox is an i9000 thing. It doesn't appear in regular captivate roms, though you can still do what needs to be done. You have 2 choices, IMO:

1 - Install a rom that is already sideloading-enabled (which is pretty much any rom)

or

2 - Pay for 2 apps that are worth it..... Buy and install Root Explorer.... navigate to /dbdata/databases/com.android.providers.settings/settings.db and copy it to /sdcard. Then, When you try to open it, it'll say you need to buy and install sqlite editor... buy it and install..... go to secure...... line 3, install_non_market_apps.... change the value from 0 to 1, then save and exit. Then, copy it back where you got it from and reboot

Good luck getting someone to help you, I'm flat out getting an answer to my updater-script problem!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] franklin01:
You can try to download a custom rom like the froyo remix and mod it according to your needs.

Open files with winrar, delete or add and try it... also i found a script to create update.zip but cant remind, try to search for it.

edit:

If you want to create a full custom rom you need to use a "kitchen" (can be found at samdroid or modaco).

It could be possible to create rom using tools like nandroid and clockwork recovery (flash, install app/mod without sim or sd, then backup).

If you just want to mod a rom already flashed, you can use an updater script like this one: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=769374 but if you change fils inside you will probably need to edit the "updater-script" and validate the apks using this: http://www.londatiga.net/it/how-to-sign-apk-zip-files/

It would be good to create some kind of "how to create your own custom rom" whitout using kitchens or harcode, some kind of gui tool where we could put an official rom, and remove/add apk/odex then choose to build the full rom or just the update.zip ...

Good luck
