Hi All,

Sorry if this is question may sound stupid but I have searched for so long and I couldn't find any solution.

What I want to do is just replace my boot screen for Samsung Galaxy S. I found out that it is not easy. So I rooted my phone using the one click root that I found here which is SuperOneClick.

So once rooted I immediately tried the following:

C:\sdk\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>adb remount

I got an exception saying:

C:\sdk\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>adb remount
remount failed: No such file or directory

So I tried the following:

C:\sdk\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>adb shell
$ su
su
# mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system
exit
$exit

C:\sdk\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip

In which I got the following exception:

C:\sdk\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip
failed to copy 'bootanimation.zip' to '/system/media/bootanimation.zip': Permiss
ion denied

So I tried searching again and some say that I have to install busybox. So what I did is I installed it in my Samsung Galaxy S which has a SpeedMod kernel and tried again using the command above.

As of the moment I tried it again to no avail. My Usb debugging is turned on so I don't really know the reason why I'm not able to push.

I appreciate any help.

Thank you.

if you used speedmod kernel, theres no need to apply SuperOneClick

because speedmod already has builtin Lagfix and root, options are accessible by booting into the Recovery Menu

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] rockstarsouth21:
I just did your suggestion and installed the latest speedmod but when I do the command that I posted above still gives the same error in Windows, any other suggestion? many thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] DamianGto:
Just use a file tool and copy it to data/local.

It need to use root.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ramsfan_Jim:
Has anyone else had a problem where the DZ battery discharges while the device is switched off? I have twice had the problem now where I charge up before turning off for the night, then when I switch on again in the morning it is only half charged.

I am going to try removing the battery overnight to see if I still get the same effect, but was wondering if anyone else has experienced this?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
I definitely shouldn't be discharging overnight. But more likely I would think would be the battery being faulty, and just not holding charge.

However, I wonder if it's a battery calibration issue. i.e. when the phone is on, the ROM *thinks* it's fully charged or whatever. But then when it's powered off and left for a while, when next booted the ROM looks again and decides something else ?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Has the battery meter has been properly calibrated? Charge it to 100%, then let it drain to about 30%. Repeat a couple times, so the battery meter actually knows what voltages correspond to "full" and "empty".

Also, somebody posted on here recently, about his G2/DZ having bad power drain while the screen was off. He exchanged the phone, and the new one was fine.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ramsfan_Jim:
I am still experiencing this problem, and I am getting slightly concerned if I am the only one. I have now had the battery discharge significantly overnight when the device is off on a number of occasions (it was fully charged last night & 8% when I turned on this morning). This has occurred with 2 different batteries, and DOESN'T occur when I take the battery out of the device overnight. I therefore deduce it is the DZ and not the battery that has the problem.

Is there any process which continues to run when the device is powered off? Is there an internal clock (for example) which continues to use power?

I have overclocked the DZ, but I can't recall whether I encountered the problem before that or not.

Has no-one else had this problem?:confused:
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nycjv321:
well I get a discharge overnight I thought everyone did due 2 the signal? I put my phone on airplane mode and fixes the problem... 1% or 2% usage at a max overnight :D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Ambious:
Is there any app that adds toggles in the notification bar like in CM6?

I googled and found several almost-like-it apps which have since disappeared from market.

It not adds the toggles directly, but could show a sort of "popup"

[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] mudstuff:
I use widgetlocker for a nice custom lockscreen on my Desire and would like to do the same on the TAB but can't get it to remove the similar Samsung lockscreen - when I press the power button or the device times out, I am greeted with the widgetlocker lockscreen and then the Samsung one is underneath?!

I've sent a mail to the developer but wondered if anyone else was using it and had managed to overcome this somehow...

If I hear more from the developer I'll post it here too.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] GANJDROID:
Had the same issue. First time I chose the root bypass of five second thing, it got rid of the stock lockscreen, but after a reboot it came back reguardless of what I do :(
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] mudstuff:
Kevin the developer got back to my email. All you need to do is go to Buttons and Inputs and select Easy Wake Mode. I've done that and the Samsung one doesn't come up :):):)

LockScreen Doesnt Appear FullScreen

I have purchased and Install WidgetLocker on my Galaxy Tab.

But the lockscreen does not appear in full screen, guess it is shrt of 1 row

Any Idea how to fix it? Attached pic for your reference (Please focus Towards the right side of the screen)
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] codewisp:
You can take a screenshot of the tab by pressing back + power. That picture is huuuuuuuge.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] rahuldave:
Lockscreen doesnt appear fully

Sorry just notice the trick to capture a screenshot. By the way any chance to get the problem fixed?
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] suilow1991:
it might be cause by the broken image of the 'bar' inside the apk. so far all the version of widgetlocker i use on my tab did not have this problem.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] rahuldave:
I have reinstall it but the problem is still there when I used rotary or Sense UI lockscreen. Appreciate some answer.

Is it because I'm using launcherProPlus with my SGT? An my Tab is not rooted, is it because of that?
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] Namulator:
I have wigetlocker on my tab and looks and works fine. I haven't had any problems with it.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] cramjammer:
Rahuldave-

Same issue here...emailed dev, said he was working on update for the Tab. FYI
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] rahuldave:
Thought I'm alone. I have got reply from Kevin TeslaCoil mentioning the same. Thanks
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] mudstuff:
Also still having some issues myself. Rooted with z4root and checked easy wake mode but i occasionally get a message saying widgetlocker has been given superuser access and then the stock lockscreen will show up again when i next turn the screen off and on again. It'll be fine then for a couple of hours and then do it again. Hopefully the dev will get to the bottom of this. Might fire him a quick email again.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mycorrhiza:
Adding Ext Power as well as % Battery Mod is very easy thanks to Jim Panses super Arbeit

Many thanks also to Dena and whiskeybro for their Theme as well as vukandric for the Gingerbread theme.

This is how I did it on Darky's Rom, but it should theoretically work for any Rom based on JPU.

Possibly the Rom needs to be deodexed what most custom roms are anyway.

You will possibly lose animations but there is an easy way to get them back!

Read end of post for this!

Ok let's get started with the simple (but limited) method.

Step 1:

Download the theme from Dena, the Gingerbread Theme as well as the framework-res.apk attached to this post. Put them on your SD card.

Step 2:

Install Dena's Theme with extended Power Menu

Step 3:

Install Gingerbread Theme

Step 4:

With Root Explorer copy the framework-res.apk file out of this thread to /system/framework

Your system will most likely crash after that and reboot with the new framework-res.apk active. Then change the permissions to 644 meaning all boxes in the first column selected as well as the topmost row of the second column selected. All else unselected.

Done!

This should work for any rom, but I can't confirm it yet.

For anyone interested in making their own themes compatible with ext pwr + % battery here is the more complicated way to do this and the way I actually did it:

Step 1:

You will need Dena's Theme again as a base as well as a another theme that already has the % battery but lacks the power menu. (It work too if you don't have % battery yet, but then only for the ext Power Menu)

Step 2:

Extract the framework-res.apk of each theme.

Step 3:

copy everything from framework-res.apk\res\drawable-hdpi of the theme you want to use into the same (sometimes also called "...\drawable-hdpi-v4") folder within the framework-res.apk of Dena's Theme.

Do not extract the framework-res-apk files. Use 7-zip to open them and do the copying!

Step 4:

Do the steps from the "simple" guide but instead of gingerbread theme you use your theme of choice and the framework-res.apk you use is the one you created.

Animations:

Many Themes use custom animations now.

The most common is the fly-in animation.

These animations might be lost with this method.

To get them back simply download the "Animations.zip" from this thread. Extract and move to /sdcard/AndroidThemes and then install with Metamorph (app can be found on market)

Here is another way provided by kenkiller

Haven't tried yet, but I see no reason why it should not work

reserved for me
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Jonas.M:
you might wanna change super arbeit to great work :P
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mycorrhiza:
That was intentional ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ragin:
Very useful, someone should try this on Darkyy's 5.2
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mycorrhiza:
I AM on Darky 5.2!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ragin:
Were you able to retain all of Darkyy's animations after doing this?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
No it doesn't. Not all rom can use it. Each rom framework-res.apk is different.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mycorrhiza:
differently themed maybe, but it should still work as they are all based on the same framework-res.apk (that of JPU)

Animations are gone, but I have a good idea how to fix this
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ragin:
Animations are what puts Darkyy's ROM apart. Apart from his very good themed colors & graphics.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jim_panse:
Thank you for the credits!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mycorrhiza:
The fly in animations are exactly the ones used in darkyy's rom,or at least similar enough that I didn't notice a difference yet.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jim_panse:
If you used my files as the base for this, its only a little part of the fly in animation, because i dont liked the whole package!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] HaTeNL:
What Dena theme do you mean? That link is to the captivate forums?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mycorrhiza:
After installing the Gingerbread Theme all transitions are lost. I used the ones from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=774738

If you want to add your own animation set I would gladly upload it here, too :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mycorrhiza:
My mistake, fixed it!

Thx for the info
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ragin:
Giving it a 5-star. Helpful.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kenkiller:
it's pretty easy to regain the animations if u prefer the original.

Just extract the anim folder inside darkky's framework-res.apk with 7zip, and then overwrite the same folder and contents with the framework-res.apk you intend to copy to ur phone. But in the case of animations, it's needed to clear dalvik cache in CWM.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Jonathan_m84:
This actually does work on most custom roms, as long as they are deodexed.. Great work though..

Is it also possible to only add ext menu and keep glass window lock screen? I like the instant sms reader :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mycorrhiza:
I added this to the front page, hope you don't mind.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] calvinbui:
root explorer says application cannot be installed. hmm
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] g00ndu:
If I understand you correctly, the framework-res.apk is only for the JPU rom. Likewise for the android.policy.jar and the framework.jar. You simply can't put, for example, a XWJPA into a DXJPA rom, because the framework-res.apk are different.

That was why I did the extended menu for DXJPA from scratch, with help from Idan73.

Putting the wrong framework-res.apk will result in reflash, unless you have either a nandroid backup or your original in an update zip stored in your sdcard.

Edit: I see that you have corrected your post. ;)

What about the android.policy.jar and the framework.jar files? These 2 files are needed for the extended menu.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Mycorrhiza:
Installing a framework-res.apk with root explorer means moving it to /system/framework, I will update the install instructions

@g00ndu

That is what I meant all along: Any Rom based on JPU

The other files were modded for JPU by Jim Panse they also will work with any JPU

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] HaTeNL:
I have experience in editing themes, but I can't see the use of flashing 2 themes behind each other... Doesn't the second theme overwrites the first one, so there is nothing left from the first one.

Both themes have the same files (names) in the zip.

[Galaxy Tab General] 69reichertm:
Hello I bought a Galaxy Tab at T-Mobile in Germany.

I wanted to install the latest firmware from samfirmware.com.

I downloaded the latest XXJMA and flashed it onto the device over ODIN 1.7.

After it flashed it did not go out of the download mode.

I had to manually turn it off.

Then when I booted the device only the samsung animated logo appeard and then only the letters samsung appeard.

No more booting from here.

Now I tried lots of firmwares but nothing helped.

What I succeded inwas:

turn down the device

turn it on with sound on buttom and i landed in Android System recovery (3e)

Here I can read the error:

update media, please wait

E:Can´t mount /dev/block/stl10

(Invalid argument)

E:copy_dbdata_media:Can´t mount DBDATA

your storage not prepared yet, please use UI for format and reboot actions.

Here I tried to wipe / factory reset but nothing helped

I read hundreads of threats but I do not get it to work.

Can you please please help me - I am so dissapointed about my error - I want my Tab back .

please any idea would be perfect.

Regards and greetings from nuremberg

[Galaxy Tab General] foxmeister:
Try looking at this thread - it may help!

Essentially, you'll need to flash dbdata.rfs only.

Regards,

[Galaxy Tab General] sedde:
Re-flash the same JM Firwmare you got, and after that when it reboots into download mode again, flash dbdata.rfs underphone again, and you will be able to boot it back.
[Galaxy Tab General] 69reichertm:
it does not go into download mode again - after the flash it does not reboot - I have to manually turn it off and turn it on again and then it goes into the loop

How should I flash this file ?

Thank you !!!!
[Galaxy Tab General] foxmeister:
It should definitely go in to download mode again!

I take it that from a completely off Tab, you are holding volume down and then powering on again?

Regards,

Dave
[Galaxy Tab General] 69reichertm:
ok after normal reboot it goes to the samsung logo and loops

when I reboot and press vol down it goes into download mode

ok but there is no dbdata.rfs in the JMA Firmware

file and how should I open it into odin ? Odin does not let me take a dbdata.frs
[Galaxy Tab General] foxmeister:
Look at this post - under "Misc Notes".

EDIT: IIRC correctly, you flash it under PDA.
[Galaxy Tab General] 69reichertm:
Dave - thank you a lot - I just took this dbdata.zip - dezipt it and made an tar archive and now I wanted to flash it over odin and it did start but now it does not end. Could this be the wrong dbdata.rfs ? What is the dbdata.rfs ? Thank you again - I am so desperate - I thought I know a lot about flashing but this Tab makes me go crazy. I trying now for 2 days.

[Galaxy Tab General] foxmeister:
Might be an idea to try reflashing JMA first, and then flash dbdata over it.

[Galaxy Tab General] foxmeister:
One other thing!

The zip file in the post I linked to contains a TAR archive, so it sounds like you unzipped it and tar'd a tar file!

[Galaxy Tab General] kijsophon:
Flash again
[Galaxy Tab General] 69reichertm:
Funny - if i unzip the file dbata.zip from the link there is no tar - it is just dbdata.rfs
[Galaxy Tab General] foxmeister:
I use WinRAR, so when I unzip, I get another file called "dbdata.rfs", which is also openable by WinRAR. The reason is that it's a TAR file, and the extension has been hidden. If I right click on the file, and select properties, it shows me that the file name is dbdata.rfs.tar and the file type is WinRAR archive.

Regards,

Dave
[Galaxy Tab General] 69reichertm:
Hey Dave - thank you - I just found out - I downloaded it on my mac and it did not see the tar - I switched to my acer notebook and now I sa the tar and could flash it and now it works !!!!!!! GGGRRREEEEAAAAAATTTTTTT

Thanks to you. How can I thank you ?

Can you just tell me what the dbdata file is and contains ? Is it independent from the rest of the firmware ?

Again THANK YOU MAN

Greetings Marcus
[Galaxy Tab General] foxmeister:
It's the partition mounted at /dbdata.

Regards,

Dave
[Galaxy Tab General] 69reichertm:
IS the partition empty and is it not important that the dbdata file matches the Formware ?

Or is it just a partition description ?

Dave - thank you again you helped me so much.

I told my Wife and some people about your help and this community

[Galaxy Tab General] foxmeister:
Hi Marcus,

Pleased to be of assistance!

DBData is important, but I think the apps themselves create there own data on it, so I don't think the version itself is particularly important.

[Galaxy Tab General] qatra:
Hey i have excactly the same problem. I tried the dbdata reflash but it changed nothing.

Another problem i have is that i can't flash any firmware older then JM6 they all fail to flash at the beginning when odin starts to write Kernel/boot

Do you have an idea?
[Galaxy Tab General] foxmeister:
Can you boot into recovery? (hold down volume up whilst powering on)

If so, does it come back with any errors?

There's a thread here concerning downgrading from JM6 which may help.

Regards,

Dave
[Galaxy Tab General] qatra:
Yes in recovery mode i got like I said excactly the same errors as foxmeister.

Thanks for the thread i'll read through it.
[Galaxy Tab General] foxmeister:
If you mean this:

and you've flashed dbdata.rfs, then you should try again.

Remember that you need to flash it as a TAR file, and it needs to be in the PDA section ODIN on it's own.

Regards,

Dave
[Galaxy Tab General] qatra:
waaaaaaaa I LOVE YOU!!!

I got my tab working again with JM6.

That's what i did:

I just flashed MODEM and CSC from JJ4 with P1_hidden_pit after that the errors in recovery mode were gone. And after that i could normally flash JM6.

Up and running now it's time for JMA :PPP
