Thanks but I don't see how that comment adds anything here.

Looks like the issue is above commands copy the actual system folder (not the contents of the folder) To the root of the partition. ls shows the folder "system" not the contents including etc. They are inside the folder but if the partition is mounted as system then the folder is redundant. Will check copying the contents and see if that helps.

Once I get it working in will post back to let others know

**** in the first block of code replace

- cp -r system tmpfolder (---this will take a few minutes---)

with

- cp -r system[B]/*[/B] tmpfolder (---this will take a few minutes---)

many thanks!

Why would you go out of your way to say that? It's not constructive. As a junior member with three posts and 0 thanks after a year and a half, sharpen your teeth here at XDA before you act like a big shot.
[Nook Color General] samuelhalff:
Right thanks. Changed it.

Has it worked for you?
[Nook Color General] Homer_S_xda:
Are you certain on this part? Last I read in that thread, Froyo needs a different minimum kernel.

UPDATE: Nevermind, I missed this updated effort.

[Nook Color General] samuelhalff:
Well, last time I checked, my NC was running at 950 on froyo with setcpu.

Check the forum. There's a nookie version of quickie. Except accelerometer doesn't work..
[Nook Color General] starkruzr:
First, huge thanks to the second poster - great guide! Can we sticky this?

Second, yes I know what dd does, etc, I've been working with Linux for about ten years :p. I just don't know the ins and outs of embedded devices yet.
[Nook Color General] theyownus:
yeah i was up till 4am last night but got it working. first i tried to use my existing nf sd card... bad idea. would boot from emmc to the touch android screen to begin, but could not get past. i assume it was the issue on nookdevs because wifi was not enabled. so i removed the setupwizard.apk but somehow bricked and was unable to boot from emmc. so i took the following steps to get things working properly:

1. reimage boot and system from the stock 1.0.1 images and reset the nook to stock, didnt even touch. at the intro screen i just powered it off.

2. next i took a fresh nf sdcard and run steps from your post(with the correction to copy system contents)

3. from there i had a working nf from sdcard! i did my tweaks (google apps, market fix and button remapping from nookdevs froyo tips)

i might to put together a post with a more verbose set of instructions for a one stop froyo shop but if i do i will be sure to give you credit for your contribution.

thanks again!
[Nook Color General] samuelhalff:
Hi,

Well, that's a nice contrast. I've been working on Linux/Android for about 2 months now :)

I should have mentioned that the NF uSD Card must be a newly burnt image, without all the nookie tips added to it. Of course, your Google framework will crash if you port it without your data.

By the way, there's a nice trick to get past the numb android interface, simply touch every corner of the screen, starting with top left and going clockwise. You'll then be sent the your home screen, and from there you'll log on to google account again.

I think the best way of doing it would to create a flashable .zip, which I'll make tonight if I find the time and if people are really interested. But don't forget CWR dosen't work on nookie for the time being. The only way back would be through adb.

So, does anyone wish to have a flashable zip of this? Or will it be a waist of time?

Sam
[Nook Color General] starkruzr:
I would love a flashable .zip. I think many others would as well.
[Nook Color General] chubb16:
Can't wait for a flashable zip. Maybe even some cm7 release candidates would make me real happy.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smacsteve:
I've just become the proud owner of a Nexus S. Stock it has 5 home pages, but I know that Android in general will support 7. I can't find an option for updating this on the Nexus S with 2.3.1

Anyone?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wesbalmer:
It depends on the launcher you're using. If you're using the stock launcher, you'll be limited to 5 home screens. You can download ADW, or Launcher Pro. ADW seems to have more customizations.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nxt:
Real stock Android 2.3 is 5 homescreens only, you can not change it. HTC Sense UI can do 7.

If you want more, your option is to use a 3rd party launcher like ADW.Launcher

and I would like them to look like the rest of the GingerBread theme like this:

Any help with any information would be very helpful. Thank you for your time.
[Android Themes] rhamej:
framework-res/res/drawable-mdpi or drawable-hdpi folder.

The images to change start with button-default...

You will have to change the xml files to change the font color though. And I have no idea what one it is. Maybe someone else will chime in on that.
[Android Themes] ACD168:
doesn't seem to be this, I changed these, this is how some are the way I want, but the resst are still stock...
[Android Themes] rhamej:
I'm positive those are the button images to change. Did you recompile them using a 9 patch tool?
[Android Themes] dully79:
The png's you want to edit are either btn_check or btn_radio, can't remember which ones sorry
[Android Themes] gomorrah:
Im pretty sure he means the black buttons that are underneath the pop-up. Theyre called common_b_button.9 and theyre in the com.htc.resources.apk. Theres regular and small ones, so just replace them with the default_buttons from the framework-res.apk that youre already using and they'll be uniform.
[Android Themes] rhamej:
Weird. All I changed in my theme was the ones in the framework-res folder. But all roms are differrent :-/

HELP

Ok guys i have rooted moto cliq xt and open home full i have my theme working fine can someone tell me how you people are changing the notification bar up top color or icons. I don't wanna change rom bricked phone last time. it seems like you dont need to change the rom so help thanks:):confused:
[Android Themes] dully79:
After re-reading the post your right, that'll teach me for sneaking a peak at xda while at work :)

As for the buttons sorry im at a loss :confused:

You need to open your ROM with 7zip.

Navigate to system/framework/framework-res.apk/drawable-hdpi and locate the icons that begin with "stat", these are whats shown in the stauts bar at the top of the screen.

Drag them out into a new folder and edit as you want

The notification bar you refer to is named "statusbar***.9.png" depnding on what you want to edit, there a couple of images, the very top bar holding the icons is named "statusbar_background.9.png"

.9 image editing is not for the faint hearted, nor are they scary :eek: they just need understanding :o

You can apply the new images by adb pushing, creating a flash zip or metamorph(free from the market)

Check out the guide in my signature

If you need any more help P.M me or create a new thread so we dont hijack this one.;)
[Android Themes] ACD168:

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bierce22:
Hey my mom was calling tonight saying her phone was messing up and I went over and HTC sense keeps force closing non stop even after reboots and for some reason it wont load the boot loader so I can factory reset it just stays on the black screen with triangle I've also tried to fast boot into recovery and it does the same thing oh yea she's on completely stock 2.1 sprint sense non rooted
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] il Duce:

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bierce22:
I think she's going to the store and she want even let me touch it otherwise it would be on aospmod right now lol
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nslouie:
mine was doing the same thing the other day when i got it back. you can factory reset it when the unit is turned off by holding the home key + end key + back key. It should bring you to the white screen with the android on skateboards and will ask you if you want to delete data. This will wipe your phone. My hero was not rooted and was up to date with all cuurent updates. My evo was stolen so i had just reactivated my hero this week.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bierce22:
What I did was I pressed the search button and got to the market that way then I downloaded adw because it was just sense fccing and installing a new home launcher that stopped the force closes so then I just rooted and installed asop9.9.2 and surprise surprise she likes that way better than sense lol and I also figured out what was causing the force closing it turns out HTC weather sync that was using the clock widget wasn't working and that was causing it to crash
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bierce22:

im running full stock everything for starters.

When i am in a call sometimes up to my ear or speakerphone the screen will go black and i wave my hand in front of the light sensor and nothing works. The screen stays black. I like having the lock button hang the phone up so i want to keep that option on...

Just wondering why it is doing this, thx.
[G2 and Desire Z General] kcokla:
Its a thing to save battery usage,

do you have a case on it?

from my experimentation, the sensor is somewhere at the top, left of the power button when the phone is facing you.

prehaps your hand, hair, or case is covering it causing it to turn off - as it should

it thinks your in a call and you dont need to look at the screen.

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] notebookgrail:
I posted this q'n/feature in the DVP forum. But thought it would be more appropriate here. Pardon me if this is a stupid q'n.

I was playing with my Dell Venue Pro WP7 device. When browisng the IE i stumbled upon the search result coming from dlinksearch. To test this when WP7 is connected to PC, try typing contacts.exe(or anything that is invalid) in WP7 IE, then result will come from your router seacrh if configured. That made wonder why would my home router default search come from WP7 device when i am not connected to wifi. Upon further researching, i found that when the WP7 device is connected to the PC and zune running, the router and local home network can be accessed via IE with no wifi turned on.

Eg: If you have Tversity running on your home network, try accessing the URL (their port is 41952), if will show your music and videos. Unfortunately, when i play a music, it downloads the music, but ends up giving the message (zune is connected and being sync'd and asks to disconnect). I guess the WP7 zune player is launched infact, but since zune cannot play when connected to PC, it stops there. Now it can play when on wifi and not connected to pc.

My question is ,

1. is this normal behavior for WP7 or any mobile device?

2. Is MS transferring files to the phone via some web address when connected to PC?

3. Is there a simple way to access local home media server music and files via this route and stream them? See edit below.

4. Is Wifi turned on automatically when connected to PC?

EDIT : More findings :)

Infact i am able to access the local media server with wifi on and not connected to PC... it is streamed and played. Nice WP7.

This proves the theory that WP7 is turning on wifi automatically(?) when connected to PC and zune running.

Now i can stream all kinds of video and audio formats to my WP7 (all encoded by Tversity).

Looks like someone else already tried the tversity - http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10510376&postcount=4

Found this completely by chance (and via a little help from a ruby script). The /viewsonic portion tells me that this might, and I stress MIGHT, be a soon-to-be-released final. We shall see.
[G Tablet General] FateZero:
Anything great in it a 2.3 Maybe
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
Fat chance on that. :) I don't expect 2.3 from them for quite a while, unfortunately.

Gingerbread cm7 or TnT 3588 to test tonight.... hmmm.......

EDIT: Very few changes between 3452 and 3588 - the usually app apks touched, build.prop, and the framework files. I haven't checked the kernel version yet. Maybe they finally fixed the camera.

EDIT EDIT: Same kernel as 3452, so this would be a TNTL 4.2.0. Not sure what they changed over 3452 yet, maybe just some under-the-hood tweaks. No Flash in here, btw.
[G Tablet General] brian_h_kim:

I'm going to watch this for a few days, to see if it gets finalized. Good to hear that it seems faster than 3452 - maybe they tweaked something in the framework.

it would be helpful for us neophyte tinkerers if someone could extract the 3588 system disc image file

[G Tablet General] jimcpl:
Hi,

It's pretty simple to do (Windows):

- Google unyafss.exe and download it

- Unzip the file from VS

- Make a dir named system

- copy system.img to dir system

- cd system

- <path_to_unyaffs>\unyaffs system.img

That should extract it.

Jim
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
I did a diff betwen 3452 and 3588 already, and only the app apks and framework files have changed. Nothing else. My guess is that 3452 (which is the basis for TNTL 4.x.x) was an early UAT and 3588 is now either a RC or possible a future final version.
[G Tablet General] ThunderPuppy:
Scores 1800+. Stock 3588, no enhancements added.

[G Tablet General] roebeet:
It's up to you. Some of the users here run stock (or stock + enhancement pack), so the OTA updater affects them. The update will wipe /system, so root and the enhancement pack will be gone. Tmk, the enhancement pack should work with this, but YMMV and I haven't tested it.

[G Tablet General] Mrhorology:
What does this update include? Is it worth updating ?
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
If you are at 3389 (the last "released to production" version) then I think it's worth it. I heard that it performs better and we think that the lag and SDCARD media issues are corrected. At least we think so.

I wish they had a changelog. :(
[G Tablet General] butchconner:
roebeet, et al,

I advise CAUTION with the 3588 update -- particularly if you are new to G-Tablet, modding, etc.

I posted earlier that when I logged in about 7 p.m. Central tonight I checked "Update" and it said 3588 was available. So I downloaded it.

After downloading, I told it to install and the tablet shut down and rebooted into the recovery mode. Shortly thereafter the screen showed the Android/exclamation point in triangle.

After no progress or change for a while, I rebooted into CWM (ClockworkMod) and went to /sdcard. Recovery had no command file in it and there is an update.zip there but I haven't taken it apart. I ran the update.zip using CWM to see if it would install.

The tablet did reboot afterward, but a message came up quickly saying the 3588 install was unsuccessful. Checked "About" and I'm still at 3389 (and I assume still the Enrichment stuff).

I'm not an alarmist, but thought people would like the extra warning that something may be amiss.

Rev

CORRECTION: I hate this silly forum system where we wind up with all these files that aren't what they seem. I forgot that this thread was the one where roebeet found the early 3588 and established a download link for it. But it was not the OTA 3588 and somehow this got moved back to the top of the forum confusing the issues. My experience above with the download OTA 3588 is recounted correctly -- but not to be confused with the D/L 3588 Trial this thread is about. Sorry for the confusion. :(

I'm getting mixed messages. Is this true? CWM disables OTA updates?

Surprise, surprise :(
[G Tablet General] woneill1701:
CWM does not disable updates - it simply uses a slightly different install mechanism than the standard updater. Automatic updates don't work properly with CWM installed, and the files - once downloaded -need to be installed manually through the CWM interface instead of the process being automatic.
