Exactly. But first move both from sd card to another folder (e.g. /system/) and switch the permissions to rw-r--r--.

Then copy first services.jar and then framework-res.apk to /system/framework/

The device should restart itself. Otherwise do it on your own.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] tlink91:
Hi , i know this was explained in the post above, but i am still rather confused. Could someone post as to how this theme should be applied stating all the steps ? would be greatly thankful :) ( i did notice the original post said that it was running stock 2.1...)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] Trevor_g:
Followed these instructions to install (re: moving the files from SD to system\framework, after using Root Explorer to mount as R/W), but I'm having a real issue:

Services.jar replaces fine, but when trying to replace framework-res, the phone immediately reboots and freezes at the Motorola logo.

Thank goodness for nandroid!

Any help here guys? I'd really appreciate it. : )
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] wallla:
It is supposed to immideately reboot after changing the framework-res.apk.

Did you change the permissions for the files, like i described?

Do you run the right version of the firmware (2.36.0)?

EDIT: It was posted today YAY :)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] lajosch+:
Gerade nach deiner Methode vorgegangen und nun geht praktisch nichts mehr. Direkt nach dem Verschieben der framework-res in den Systemordner ging das Display aus bzw. zeigte nichts mehr an und bleibt beim Reboot beim M hängen. :-(
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] wallla:
You're sure you had the right Firmware version on your device?

If the device doesn't boot any more, I'm afraid you should roll back to your last Nandroid-backup. Restoring the system-folder should be enough, though.

Notifications have black text so can't be seen on the black bar.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] bockers:
Also getting FCs in the Marketplace. Anyone the same?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] wallla:
You have to use not only the framework-res.apk, but also the services.jar.

This services.jar makes the notification-bar-text white.

I can't imagine that this has any relation to the theme..
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] bockers:
I did copy on services.jar as well. The time is in white, but any text like sms notifications from handcent cannot be read.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] wallla:
Yeah, you might be right.

I will look into it when I find the time.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] bockers:
Maybe this will help?

Notification text is found in the: update.zip/framework/framework-res.apk/res/layout/status_bar.xml

Open the status_bar.xml with your favorite hex editor, find the instances of 00 00 1C, and the next three values will dictate your color choice.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] wallla:
Thanks for the notes.

I updated it. Should be fine now. See first post.

Have fun.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] Shoib:
Can someone please help? I tried doing the procedure step by step and when I put one of the files it bricked my phone and now it won't get past the M logo. I tried to change the permissions with All System something but I guess they didn't go through. I don't know how to fix it and I didn't make any nandroid backups. I don't even know what that is. Can someone please help me with my problem? I paid $650+ for this and I can't afford another phone.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] joalo:
thank you for your work!thanks for the tutorial and for this gingerbread touch
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] wallla:
If you've got no backup you have to flash the phone. That means that all data, except everything on the sd-card) will be lost.

Here are the instructions:

Sorry.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] santiemanuel:
Shoib if u got OR 1.46 or up you can mount sd and transfer the original files. Framework-res.apk and services.jar, then enter to console and type:

cp /sdcard/framework-res.apk /system/

cd /system

ls (here you check if the apk was copied correctly)

chmod 0644 /system/framework-res.apk

mv /system/framework-res.apk /system/framework

Repeat the process for services.jar and reboot.

It's all good. I just had to flash my phone to GOT's 2.2.1 sbf file so now I have froyo. But will this work on froyo?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] wallla:
No. It's only for the 2.36.0 version of 2.1.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] .kannabizz.:
nice theme bro ;)

keep the good work :D
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] Chad_Petree:
Does this only work on 2.36.0 ? what version is my device using? i couldnt figure it out just by looking at the about screen
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] wallla:
You have to look at "Número de versión".

I can't say for sure if it might work.

I would just make a full nandroid backup and try it out. If it doesn't work you can switch back.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] LowRider150:
This Theme will work on Milestone 2.1 Eclair 2.38.1 ??
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] wallla:
I've no idea where this will run on, additional to 2.36.0.

You have to test yourself.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] frankxanders:
when switching permissions, i get the message "permission denied"

.... now what?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] wallla:
You can only switch permissions in a folder not on the sd-card.

You have to be root.

You have to have writing-access to the folder, not just reading.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] frankxanders:
I rooted using univeral androot. Does this not provide write access?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] wallla:
Some folders are default read-only. For example /system/.

If you use Root Explorer you can change this by clicking the "Mount R/W" Button on the top right.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] frankxanders:
I wasn't really sure about getting Root Explorer, since there were other root file browsers for free, but i haven't found a single one worth keeping installed yet. I supposed i'll just have to take the $4 plunge.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] wallla:
You don't absolutely have to.

I don't know the other file explorers.

But basically, you even can do everything necessary via adb from the console of your PC.

I think there is somewhere around here on xda a newbie-guid to adb. That would be a good start if you want to try it that way.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] frankxanders:
Found it! SO helpful.

So just to clarify... assuming I'll be using adb for this.

- use shell to change permissions

- remove current system and framework files from /framework/ using pull

- replace with your system and framework files using push

Correct steps, and order?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] wallla:
I think the second step isn't possible/necessary.

use adb push to get the files to /system/ on your phone

from here on use adb shell as root to

change permissions

move from /system/ to /system/app/

adb shell is just like any linux shell. You can use the mv command to move files, etc.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] scores87:
Does this work in 2.2.1?

No.

I'll update it if a final 2.2.1 will be released by Motorola.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KGBxxx:
Lol. What's the purpose of safe mode on a phone?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lioryte:
From HERE "blah blah blah...Then the Safe mode notification will be shown on the bottom left of the display. In Safe mode, all third-party applications will not be executed so you can boot up your phone successfully to uninstall any applications that you may have recently installed or which may be stopping your phone from booting correctly"
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MadSage:
For example, if you have SetCPU configured to clock your phone at 2.3GHz at boot, then you won't be able to boot up normally. You would boot into Safe Mode, uninstall SetCPU, then reboot normally.

Hey everybody,

So I'm interested in getting a PSP2 next year, but I won't want to get it unless I can port Android onto the device.

Do you know if that would be possible? I would think that it would, considering the hardware it will have (dual core processor, solid state memory, etc.), but I'm not a software expert.

-Stephen

P.S. I know that Sony Ericsson is coming out with a PlayStation Phone early next year, but it won't have the processing power (dual core, high on-board memory) or hardware buttons I want (like dual analog controls and rear-mounted touch panel). I'm only interesting in porting Android to the PSP2.
[Nexus S General] Whoareyou:
Ummm, I just realised that you can't flash roms to the Nexus S via Recovery, since there's no SDcard slot, that means NO ROMS!!! :-( :-(
[Nexus S General] theimpaler747:
Hmm... Can't you just put it on internal storage?
[Nexus S General] Azure465:
Yes you can, just put the ROM file on the 16gb internal memory;)
[Nexus S General] swetland:
You can either use fastboot to flash new system images, or, as folks have already pointed out, drop an update.zip on the internal 14GB /sdcard partition (using USB Mass Storage, if you like).
[Nexus S General] krumb:
errr, no.

heh
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
there will be space allocated as mountable
[Nexus S General] Darrien13:
Yea you put it in the internal memory :)
[Nexus S General] Whoareyou:
Ohhh, ok :-)
[Nexus S General] theimpaler747:
You mind if I close this?
[Nexus S General] mingkee:
Do you know there's a thing called "Odin"?

Flashing Samsung Android phone doesn't require memory card.
[Nexus S General] Anderdroid:
FACEPALM.

On the Vibrant, you MUST put the ROMs on the internal storage in order to flash it. It's literally an 'internal sd card'. It IS an sd card. aka /sdcard/

The Vibrant's external SD card is /sdcard/sd/ or /sdcard/external_sd/

Therefore it's the same process on Nexus S. Copy the ROMs over via USB onto the storage. Which is, /sdcard/.

[Android Software Development] supermamie:
hi!

I'm trying to implement custom brushs in my application (ARTags) and I'm stuck with MaskFilter.

I didn't manage to find any doc on it so I just downloaded android source to check how BlurMaskFilter and EmbossMaskFilter are created.

Since I'm really not comfortable with the NDK yet, I'm wondering if anyone already managed to implement a custom MaskFilter.

If not, I'm not sure which path to chose between trying to understand the source and use the NDK or try to implement the draw part of my application entirely by myself.

Thanks for your help
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] mattjmartin:
My girlfriend has an original mytouch 3g from release date that I'm trying to install a custom Rom on. It has the 2.2 OTA Rom from t-mobile and I have attached an image of her boot//spl and radio versions.

I have root access already and can flash clockwork or amon's recovery just fine. I already have nandroid backups on the computer and the Rom I want on the SD (either yoshi extreme 1.5 or brewed froyo).

The problem arises when I flash a Rom. It doesn't matter what Rom I am flashing or whether I use amon or clockwork, it just bootloops at the green mytouch screen. I have searched for HOURS to figure it out, and I think it is an SPL issue, but there is way too much info on the phone online to sift through. When I had my 32b (never had OTA froyo) I just downloaded the Rom, booted into RA and flashed. It always worked.

I'm not looking to be spoon fed here, just point me in the right direction. If I need a new/eng SPL, please point me towards which one!

Also, how do I keep it from flashing over amon/clockwork upon boot?

Thanks guys!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] mattjmartin:
So, do we need to replace the spl from the ota 2.2 update before we can flash roms? What spl should I flash? I'm going to flash one of the roms that are based on the ota update...

I just want to flash something a bit faster and overclock a little to hold her over until we get her something better. Maybe ill just pick up an hd2 for cheap and throw a desire rom on it! Or perhaps give her my mytouch 4g and pick me up a nexus s! :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] WoblyGoblin:
You just need to install eng spl like 1.33.2005 by crios or 1.33.2010 you flash it via recovery, install yoshi or brew or my mod and you will be fine
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] mattjmartin:
I JUST saw your reply man! I had all but given up until today when my girlfriend started complaining again about her phone! Thanks for the help!

Cyanogenmod, here we come!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] mattjmartin:
Okay, so I tried flashing Cyanogen 6.1 after flashing 1.33.2005 and it just bootloops. I'm trying Yoshi now.

UPDATE: Everything bootloops. Nothing will boot. Here is where I'm at with spl/radio. Any ideas?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] CBATESY:
I recently got a new mt3g...again, downloaded the ota 2.2. what did you root the phone with??? do you have ROM manager on the phone?? With that you have there you should be able to Flash CM6.1 stable I would have thought. If you have ROM manager installed just download the rom on ROM manager with gapps, just make sure you check backup and do a WIPE. if you dont do a wipe will bootloop.

If you dont want CM. download superwipe. you can find it on here. If you go that route. Go into recovery performed nandroid backup, installed zip file for superwipe. let it do its thing. reboot phone back into recovery and flash you ROM, then gapps and then kernel. First boot is the longest. I would flash CM6.1 if you have never flashed ROM before. Yoshi is kinda difficult if you have never flash ROM before, just a fyi.

The wierd thing is my phone said the same before you installed the new eng spl.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] mattjmartin:
I've flashed plenty of Roms in the past.

The problem ended up being my radio version. Both radios from the OTA 2.2 updates turned out to be incompatible with cyanogenmod...

I just ended up finding a ported version of CM 6.1 final that worked with the new OTA radio and spl. The new radio and spl together free up an extra 15 mb of RAM too, so its a nice bonus. I had to flash the new spl back with fastboot before I could flash CM, but otherwise it was simple. The phone is MUCH more snappy now compared to OTA 2.2.1, no swap or anything.

If you decide to go that route, its very simple.

1) root with superoneclick

2) download amon RA and flash with Rom manager

3) wipe and flash the ported cyanogenmod Rom

Viola, cyanogenmod with an extra 15mb of RAM. You could even supposedly flash one of pershoot's kernels which now support the new radio and spl RAM hack.

If you have any questions, let me know!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] CBATESY:
or you can flash regualar 6.1 and then flash ezterry's 2708 port kernel. pershoots has one as well.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] IphoneKiller125:
hey guys

ive noticed that a thew of you are having issues with the touchscreen,particularly when running recent roms

now ive been having a look and have come up with an idea to resolve this problem,first we have to understand the screen,our lovely HD2 has a multi touch TFT capacitive touchscreen, 65K colors 480 x 800 pixels, 4.3 inches WVGA

now about multi touch capacitive touch screen from wiki as bellow:

Multi-touch has been implemented in several different ways, depending on the size and type of interface. Both touchtables and touch walls project an image through acrylic or glass, and then back-light the image with LEDs. When a finger or an object touches the surface, causing the light to scatter, the reflection is caught with sensors or cameras that send the data to software which dictates response to the touch, depending on the type of reflection measured. Touch surfaces can also be made pressure-sensitive by the addition of a pressure-sensitive coating that flexes differently depending on how firmly it is pressed, altering the reflection.[2] Handheld technologies use a panel that carries an electrical charge. When a finger touches the screen, the touch disrupts the panel's electrical field. The disruption is registered and sent to the software, which then initiates a response to the gesture.

if you get what that means then we'll move on.Now then most of the builds weve been using are designed for either AMOLED/LCD capacitive touchscreen at16M colors so in basic terms when we touch our screens it sends a signal to the software saying youve touched only the software thinks were all using 16M capacitive touchscreen when in actual fact were only using 65k capacitive touchscreens thus eventually causing lack of responce,so whats the solution i hear you cry,well we have to look at our beloved friend the evo 4G wich has the same screen TFT capacitive touchscreen, 65K colors so we have use the files/script/value or whatever devs use to controll the display and touchscreen from the 4g and use them in HD2 android builds this way we shouldnt be able to wear out our touchscreens in android builds,something for Devs to do and we already have Evo ports,probably explains why no one or heard of has had this problem when running Evo builds.Does that Make sence :D
