Well, if u know how to up ROM via PC then tell me, because I often up ROM directly on my Diamond, not via PC. And I plugged it to PC and the word "Serial" disappeared, but the word "USB" did not display on the screen :(

So I'm still trying to learn and I guess I'm moving kinda slow but with the holidays so close... well you get the point. Anyway, I extracted some of the system apks with ninja morph. Themed them and it worked out pretty well. My question is where are the framework res folders so I can theme the status bar in aosp for example?
[Android Themes] dean.d:
system\framework\framework-res.apk.

Inside the framework-res.apk

res\drawable-mdpi\

Images will be as follows:

statusbar_background.9.png = the status bar(with the time, battery.ect)

status_bar_item_background_normal.png = displays ongoing notificatition such as music, downloading ect.

status_bar_item_app_background_normal.9.png = basically the same as above. Nedds to be edited a well to avoid mis-matches.

status_bar_header_background.png = displays the carrier name

status_bar_close_on.9.png = bottom of the drop down.

status_bar_background.png = the background for the drop down.

That should cover it hope this helps.

caus the topic name is good for me to:

where are the png files i need to edit to get a custom background on the lockscreen ? :D ( the normal lockscreen from froyo 2.2 )
[Vibrant General] XiaoSiuMai:
I was using Axura 2.2 with Super IO kernal. I thought I would try to use stock JK6 Kernel. It boots just fine but it was slower that Super IO so I want to go back to it. I went Rom Manager and boot into recovery mode. It restarted and when it got to the recovery point it gets messages saying

E:Missing bitmap indeterminate1

(Code -7)

E:Missing bitmap indeterminate2

(Code -7)

E:Missing bitmap indeterminate3

(Code -7)

E:Missing bitmap indeterminate4

(Code -7)

E:Missing bitmap indeterminate5

(Code -7)

E:Missing bitmap indeterminate6

If i go rreintall packages, it just stalls at Find update package...

I can boot back into the normal phone but the clockworkmod cant be accessed
[Vibrant General] pdefazio:
JK6 uses 3e recovery. Clockwork won't work with that. You have to do a modification to get CWM to work. Read up on it here:

[Vibrant General] XiaoSiuMai:
Im kinda new to android and I don't really understand the whole adb process. Is there any other methods to either make clockworkmod work or change the recovery back to 2e?
[Vibrant General] pdefazio:
You don't have to use ADB. If you are rooted (I assume you are) then download Root Explorer from the market and use it to put the 'keys' and 'recovery' files where they need to be. Scroll down a bit in the link above and find the post the explains exactly where they go. I think its 5 or 6 posts down.
[Vibrant General] XiaoSiuMai:
Thank u for your help. Gottawait til pay day on Monday then I can do it. Ill let u know how it goes.
[Vibrant General] zephiK:
Wrong. The OP can also use Odin to go back and re-flash Axura.

Odin will restore everything back to it's stock state.
[Vibrant General] XiaoSiuMai:
Do u mean print back to stock jl1 then reflash axura?
[Vibrant General] zephiK:
Yeah or you can go into ROM Manager and hit Flash Clockwork Recovery again.. the problem probably has something to do with the kernel using 2e and 3e recoveries. Some kernels remove 2e recovery so when you go to recovery, it automatically goes to 3e. Some stay on 2e and you have to hit Reinstall packages to get into 3e.
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:

Hi,

When I use swypes double click feature to change words, two windows pop up: first the swype word selection window, secondly a sense text edit window which hides the first one. This is really annoying. I did not have this behavior on my old Desire.

unfortunately no, i dont think it will work

looks like the same patch i tried

ds2784_battery.c is not used on our phone

the file we would probably patch would be arch/arm/mach-msm/htc_battery.c
[Droid Incredible Android Development] superchilpil:
dang :/

they ported this to the evo? isnt the evo extreamly similar to our phone?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] invisiblek:
from what i understand (and i may be wrong here) the evo also uses htc_battery.c and not ds2784_battery.c so porting it to the evo shouldnt affect it either

ask them when they build if they have a ds2784_battery.o file after building, if the phone is using it, the .o will be there (it isnt here)

I've been waiting patiently for my 2.2 OTA upgrade ... now my patience is running thin as hell with Samsung as well as t-mobile for not stepping in to remedy the problem. The worst part is that I just heard that Samsung pulled the 2.2 update from kies. So this is probably a bad sign for any one who is afraid to root or scared the void any warranty.

Im unfortunately one of the ones that hasent wanted to root cause im still paying off my phone. I know its easy, I just want the option to claim warrenty.

Im giving them until the new year to release an OTA for 2.2 or 2.3 if not that a date and then first deadline they miss in rooting.

Sent from my futuristic phone
[Vibrant General] pdefazio:
I say go ahead and root. Then read a lot. Read some more. And then flash. Don't worry about the warranty. You can always flash back to stock and unroot. They'll never know or care.
[Vibrant General] anthonys2r:
Honestly, you're probably not going to get 2.2 by years end. Gingerbread is out and we're still running software that was released over a year ago. At this rate, we'll get Gingerbread (if we ever) couple months after Honeycomb is released..

edit: I also applaud your patience thus far. I couldn't even stand waiting more than a week for JI6 update (after it was reported it was being released OTA), which prompted me to root + flash.
[Vibrant General] ironlood:
Actually I was one of the lucky ones with JI6. I got the update notification the same day it was announced.

If it wouldn't be too much to ask could some one point me in the direction of a n00bs guide to rooting and flashing

[Vibrant General] 1quickturbosix:
I would just go with the One click lag fix for rooting. I think the .apk that allowed you to root got pulled from the market. But if you search around here... you can still find it. Very simple, just install the app, click root, boom, start flashing away. Just search for One Click Lag Fix, gotta get one of the older versions though.
[Vibrant General] KWKSLVR:
Root, read, learn, then install the Stock JL4 Froyo Rom some of us are running. It's pretty slick and practically perfect.

Go ahead and use ODIN and update to 2.2 FL4. You wont be disapointed, unless you talk about battery life. I lost an hour at least going to 2.2. However, the features/speed improvement is well worth it.

Sent from my futuristic phone
[Vibrant General] os2baba:
I am in the same boat - except that I have rooted. I didn't flash a custom ROM since it's so much more difficult than on the G1 which had the excellent Amon Ra recovery to do BART backups in case something went wrong and a flash from a zip file side loaded on the phone.

Flashing ROMs on this is so much more convoluted with ODIN, kernels etc. Plus 2.1 was decent enough on the phone and I kept expecting Samsung to release 2.2. But this is now getting ridiculous and I'm getting pissed of as well. This is definitely the last Samsung phone I'm buying. My next phone is definitely going to be an HTC. HTC modding is stabler and more advanced for obvious reasons, not least of which is that HTC seems relatively okay with it.

What is 2.2 FL4?
[Vibrant General] Haxel:
FL4 is the latest "leak" of the 2.2 "final" rom for the Vibrant.

Dont listen to others that are saying to factory restore, after you are done with the flash, boot it into recovery (the volume button turn on) and just clear the cache, then reboot. You wont lose any data. (If you rooted 2.1 you will may have to factory restore, but it doesnt hurt to try the cache trick first. The method I'm referring to seems to work best if your a non-root user like me).
[Vibrant General] ironlood:
I seen or read about the cache trick somewhere on here before just can't remember where.

Sent from my futuristic phone
[Vibrant General] ironlood:
Can someone post a link to a good thread so I can research what I need to do or atleast provide me with the right word or phrases to search.

My first concerns are what everything is, like ODIN and OCLF (I finally figured out the OCLF thanks to this thread means one click lag fix ... I never put 1&1 together) Also they put the OCLF back in the market with all the tools just minus the ROOT option. Reading through the help file provided with the OCLF app he tells you what you can do to obtain root.

[Vibrant General] ironlood:
I've been looking through a few rooting threads to gather information. I see people saying that there making backups and installing busybox or superuser. If acquiring root is as simple as a button press and a restart why make a backup. I understand that It's always good to make a backup when delving into the inner OS.

Also the OCLF, Super Oneclick, and Z4root, methods I've researched are a little less explanitory then i thought. They just say something like "INSTALL AND CLICK ROOT" nothing step by step or anything talking about safty precautions.

Blue-segmented Battery Indicator Mod CWM Flashable zip, cooked in UOT Kitchen (online) from

STOCK JL4

framework-res.apk (attached below).

Just copy to /sdcard and flash using CWM.

A perhaps more conservative approach would be to cook your own CWM flashable using UOT Kitchen (online):

http://circle.glx.nl/

XDA thread here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=775970

I say more conservative only in that the UOT Kitchen website will cook the precise version of the framework-res.apk that currently resides on your phone, thus eliminating any chance of versioning problems. This is very easy to do, even for a klutz like me. Takes all of ~15 minutes; no programming at all, just upload the framework-res.apk from your phone and download the resulting CWM flashable. Having said that, the attached flashable works fine on stock JL4.

It seems to me that this method may well represent a future trend in mod'ing, given that it is so flexible (configurable) and that the dev need only maintain a single website-based version of his/her code. Great job, QLIRATU, MENDOZINAS, AVREEN, and company! :)

Screen-by-screen instructions for Vibrant users, to avoid ambiguity:

(1) Make sure that you are running a deodexed ROM; otherwise this will not work. (E.g., both geoffcorey and krylon360 recently posted stock Vibrant Froyo JL4 flashables in both odexed and deodexed versions. Use the deodexed version).

(2) First Screen: I used the first version option on the first page of the website, "SCB with %, Version [A-J]". More specifically, I used Version B-White because I have black wallpaper.

(3) Second Screen: Choose "do not include icons" (that has to do with other mod'ing not applicable to Vibrant).

(4) Third screen: Choose "do not change notification status bar" (N/A to Vibrant).

(5) Fourth screen: Choose "do not include boot animation." (N/A to Vibrant).

(6) Fifth screen: Choose "not not include Windows animation" and disregard the warning in red. (N/A to Vibrant).

(7) Sixth screen: As detailed on website and in XDA thread, you can upload the version of framework-res.apk currently on your phone, or the version in the flashable zip file that you used to install your current ROM. If you do the latter, don't do what I did at first and try to upload the unzipped framework-res.apk from the flashable ROM file. You must unzip the flashable ROM file and then upload the unzipped framework-res.apk.

(8) Download cooked result from link provided and flash using CWM. I deleted cache and Dalvik cache from CWM environment after flashing and before re-booting, although that is probably not necessary.

(9) It might be a good idea to un-install any previously-installed battery indicator mod (e.g., a battery indicator downloaded from Market) before installing this one, although I do not know whether this is necessary.

Enjoy!
