Ok, I managed to unpack the KDZ file but still couldn't find a way extract the Orange Signal Booster apk from boot.img file; so if anyone has backup of the apk it would be greatly appreciated.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ballandbiscuit:
I tried the same thing but had no luck. If you had the handset you could use a number of different apps (astro, titanium backup) to make a backup of the .apk file with very little technical knowledge.

It would be god send if we could get this app running on other handsets...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ballandbiscuit:
Here is the APK!

OK here is the APK which I have extracted from the ROM image. I tried installing it on my desire and it FCs as soon as I attempt to run it. If anyone else wants to get onboard with this please do!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] OTamayo:
Hi ballandbiscuit, many thanks for the APK. Tried it on my HTC DHD and had the same FC result as you. As far as I can tell, this is not a hardware restriction but possibly the result of other system services required by the app not installed on the handset.

I really wish someone from Orange with a bit of technical knowhow would get involved and assist us with this much needed feature.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] The_ERROR:
what about some kind of logging? maybe it say something...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] tabi13:
Okay, I just had a little luck with the UMA application.

Not quite there yet though.

BASICALLY, I have come to understand that the application extracted from various Roms FC cuz they are missing other files they depend on from the ROM.

I was using Orange Signal Boost apk from the Orange Desire S rom (am attaching it) on my HTC Legend.

Then I came across stories of someone in US who had extracted an apk from so Tmobile Rom for wifi calling and made it to work on a Nexus 1. I downloaded that files (also attached). This file was a modded version of original apk and had all the dependant files. (and consequently was 3mb vs 600kb of Orange signal boost)

So what I tried was

1. Install tmobile wifi app

2. Install Orange signal boost on TOP of it. It will ask you that this progam will replace another older program on your phone. Clcik okay.

3. What this does is leave old installed files needed from tmobile app and this time LO AND BEHOLD, signal boost app launches without FC

Here comes the problem though, it doesnt work, cuz somewhere hardcoded in the files that the tmobile app installs is the network info and naturally, our sims being orange are recognized as invalid sim.

Me and a LOT of other people would REALLY appreciate it if someone with any knowhow can look at this and figure it out for us
[Galaxy Spica Android Development] an9093:
As some of you probably know, the ps3 has recently been hacked, allowing us to run unsigned code. The source code for the exploit leaked and a dev called KaKaRoTo managed to get it to run from a Nokia N900. The other day, KaKaRoTo released his source code and someone already ported it to the Palm Pre. This quick port was possible because the N900 and Palm Pre both share the same USB controller(mUSB) which happens to be the controller used by the Droid/Milestone.

This has already been posted in the droid section, but I figured I would post this in here. Maybe some of you guys can get this working on our Samsung Galaxy Spica i5700!

thanks nicholasbgr for writing this up.

-------------------

Well, first, you need to figure out what controller your device uses, in the case of the N900, it’s ‘musb’.. (Luckily we have he same controller!)

Then go to the driver code for that controller (probably in drivers/usb/gadget) and look for ‘SET_ADDRESS’. In the case of musb, it was in drivers/usb/musb/musb_gadget_ep0.c. In there it was setting the address to the USB device, so just copy that code into the psfreedom_machine.c to allow setting the address, and add a similar function to be able to retreive the address.

Then add a function to return 0 or 1 depending on whether the controller supports HIGH, FULL or LOW speed mode (go to usb_gadget_register_driver for your controller, and in the first lines, it should validate the speed argument, it will tell you which ones are acceptable), set LOW speed mode to return TRUE only if FULL speed isn’t available .

Finally, add a function to return the endpoint names.. it will usually be something like ‘epXin’ and ‘epXout’ (where X is the endpoint number), or “epXin-bulk”, etc.. look at how the driver initializes its endpoints or grep for “->name” in the file to find where it sets it…

That should be enough!

-------------------

This doesn't look too hard to do either. We shouldn't need to do too many alterations to get it working on the milestone.

Here is what we apparently need to do to port it from the nokia.

And here's a link to the source code over at github:

[Wildfire Themes and Apps] LogicXLz':
I' m getting prety angry to tell you the truth!!! I really don't want to bother users to explain the same thing over and over again, but it seems in general, almost no one "TAGS" their questions!!!

I' ve been spending most of the time searching for the answers to some very basic questions and I just cannot believe people get anything done thru search results to the most of their problems. I like to think of myself as far from being stupid and unresourceful and yet I' ve had it with spending so much time looking for solutions!!!

Those of you who know what you are doing are getting it done. Those of us who are yet learning are doing it by trial and mistake, or what??! Well, I for one am not like that! I like to know all the facts and the theory before I do something!

So, to get to the chase...

Please answer me this:

- When I dl. an ICON PACK in a .ZIP format, file, where to put that or what to do with it, before using the icons with ie. Folder Organiser? (there are .PNG files in the folder...)

I get the part on how to change the icons, but no one explains on the above. In plain and simple english, the answer please? :confused:

So for the future enthusiasts, let this be a first for all the "noobs" to find the simple and direct answer to the problem! I'll even tag it correctly...:rolleyes:

Thank you for understanding and for your help. :)
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] kevin2516:
I already answered your other question so stop whining. Just extract the zip to your sd card. And then you can select the icons using whatever app.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] LogicXLz':
DON'T BOTHER WITH ANSWERING...

After some more wasted time, I've managed to find this, And just as in all the other cases the answer came in a topic related to my issue, yet a stumbled upon it by accident and not by searching the forum... That's why so much time gets wasted! So many people and no one seems to be bothered by the logistics. Do you acctually realize how hard it is to help ourselves with the thing which is acctually created to be helpfull??!!

Anyways... Here is the solution for all you noobs. Hope this spares you some time...

(1) Download some Icons from the Market. Search the Market for "Icons" and "Icon Packs", most are free and will install on your phone. Most Icon Packs will say you need Bettercut or Open Home to use them, ignore this - they work just fine with FolderOrganizer (and any other app that can change icons)

(2) Optional - Download some icons from the internet. The best way to get icons from the internet to your phone is using a PC and transferring them to your SD card by USB. To do this, create a new folder on your PC called "Icons" or whatever you want to call it. You can create a new folder with a different name for each set of icons you download, which makes them easier to find later. Connect your phone to your PC using the USB cable and select "Disk Drive". Open your SD card on your PC using Explorer and copy your Icons folder to the SD card (don't put it inside an existing folder on your SD card, just add it to the top level directory). When the copy is complete, unplug the USB cable and the phone will scan the SD card and find your new icons. (Note: an alternative method is to connect your phone to your PC as a Disk Drive before you start, create a new icons folder on your SD card and download the icons directly to your SD card - just select the icon folder on the SD card as the save location)

...and here is the link to the whole guide...

BTW, I'm not angry at anyone, just the way the world operates... Ufff...
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] LogicXLz':
Sorry 'Kev!!! A thousand APPOLOGIES... Did not refresh the page so I've missed the answer... In general, I was pissed by the amount of time spent for such a minor problem... Otherwise I'm not such a nag.

Installed the Clockwork Recovery ( I'm assuming it installed correctly..). Then went to power it off & back on again to install the Vegan Rom and i get a white exclamation symbol and then it reboots to the original stock rom...HELP

AM I doing something wrong?
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
The exlamation mark means standard recovery - your update didn't work. :(
[G Tablet General] rothnic:
Sounds like Clockwork Recovery was not installed. So when you went to install Vegan, the stock recovery did not see the /recovery/command file(only needed for the stock recovery, not clockwork), so it basically is saying "I'm not supposed to flash anything!" to you.
[G Tablet General] RuncaProfundus:
I had to take the micro SD card from my phone and put the cm v.08 setup stuff on that. Did you follow the CM install instructions to the letter? I went from the stock ROM and recovery to CM recovery and vegan ROM in about 15 mins.
[G Tablet General] Reginhild:
Load on a SD card then try again - may want to try a standard config boot load without clockwork as in TnT lite directions

[Streak 5 General] stoney73:
Hi,

I was running Steve's 1.5.1, and then decided to go back to the 8105 build. so i flashed the stock recovery, which went fine. I then went on to flash the 8105 build.

After a few minutes I noticed that the screen was 'flash failed'.

I've mangaged to get clockwork mod recovery v1.8.1.7 flashed, but the sdcard wont mount. It keeps coming up with errors.

For example:

E: Can't find MISC

E:cant mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p2(no such file or directory)

Error mounting SDEXT:1

Please help. At present I dont car what buil is put on, so long as it works. Btw, I'm a rebelsim user.
[Streak 5 General] stoney73:
wow, 58 views and no reply? hmm.
[Streak 5 General] fone_fanatic:
That feature on clockwork recovery doesn't work on the dell streak (atleast in all the versions I've tried)

So if your device isn't booting, get a card reader and use that to access it.

Good luck

I have a sony erricsson xperia x10a and I am having a problem with it. It is loading up but then shutting up and trying to load again, pretty much looping at the boot stage. someone suggested I reinstall update 2.1, how can i update it again or is there any other way to do it. :confused:

Thank you.:)

Post this in the x10 section. Go to the x10 rom development section and you can find out how to re install 2.1. I had the same boot looping problem and solved it by reinstalling.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] My20:
Install ROM

1. Put file on your INTERNAL SD-Card.

2. If you're on same lagfix, you don't need to disable the lagfix.

3. Recovery and "Choose zip from SDCARD" and "select the ROM zip file"

4. Install addons (Without Reboot)

5. Reboot

I'm sorry, but what's the difference with Doc's ROM? Even the description matches. The only difference I can see are a few .apk's were added. Is this based on Doc's ROM or did you do this yourself?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] st4rk:
Edited as promised and sorry for my assumptions..

Good luck with your project. ;o)

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Bara2:
C'mon guys - give him some time to answer and upload :)

I do hope he did it all by himself - we need more quality roms for our sgs. If Doc left some time (Nexus S?!) there would not be many choices left...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jaju123:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ed10000:
Cut him some slack guys. At least for now. Obviously he can't speak English very well. That MIGHT be the reason he just copy-pasted the description from Doc's ROM. We don't KNOW whether he's using Doc's ROM as the base yet.

He can use any style he wants - that's just a compilation of characters :p

Hi cahmbo622 ;)

Nice to meet you again :p

Yeah, the OP should make his instructions alone...

Would be better.

It's ok that he takes a base to learn.

You know, I did the same with v2.2.

On v3.0 it was my own base.

v5.x is completely free from any other base.

You get the picture.

Did you try it? :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pspbirte:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] st4rk:
Edit - didn't read last few posts..

If its not based on docs then I'm sorry for assuming that.. But it was quite a logical assumption given the beginning text.

People here would be interested to see new roms..

Imo it needs to be more unique, otherwise its just the same as docs and people will choose docs because he is way more established/practised.. Hope you under stand that.. :o)

To My20,

I didn't mean to put you off in any way and now we know you did it yourself.. That's great, well done. I hope you can see that it was an easy assumption to make that you copied it from doc because you copied his txt word for word.

No joke but an overwhelming, loud mouthed minority of these newcomers, I'm talking about you people who joined June/July 2010 onwards, are the most ungrateful, unrespectable people on XDA and you guys are pissing me, and a lot of others off. Heck, you guys ***** about how so and so stole this or how they are not different. If they give credit for it, it's only strengthening the current and future development of this phone and well as strengthening the community. If you guys think it's so easy, you give it a try rather than take take take and criticize the rest of the time. Just to be clear, I doubt most of you even know what your talking about, rather just repeating what another says.

Seriously, this has to be the most ungrateful section of XDA. No wonder why HTC devices get things ported over more quickly, they have a much more friendly and supportive community.

Kudos to all the people who make the time to help, create and share on XDA.
