[Fascinate General] Xxw0lfxX:
Ok, so first of all I want to apologize, because I'm fairly new at this. And second off, I dont have enough posts yet to post in the Development forums.

I'm going along the lines of the "[RECOVERY] Updated ClockworkMod for all (non-voodoo) ROMs" thread, trying to update my phone, because somehow somewhere something got messed up. I finally got Odin to connect to the phone, I selected pda and the "cwm_froyo.tar" file, and pressed start. It took about 10 seconds, and said that it had passed and the phone turned off.

Then it booted into the blue recovery, and I selected apply update from sdcard. Phone kinda rebooted, then brought me back to the same recovery screen. I retried it one more time, then I saw the red recovery screen, but I'm not too sure what selection to make from here.

Am I going about this totally wrong, or somewhat right? I'm so confused with this all. My buddy that I worked with set up all this on my phone, and now that he no longer works with me, I'm trying to figure it out myself. I appreciate any help given, thank you!
[Fascinate General] rushfanx1:
Similar issue

I am having a similar

I can no longer boot to Green Recovery... everytime I select Update.zip, it reboots right back to Blue Recovery..

Anyone?
[Fascinate General] Xxw0lfxX:
I cant even get my phone to boot into "Download" mode anymore. I'm afraid I did something and now I cant fix it myself.... Ugh
[Fascinate General] rushfanx1:
I was having this problem too, but I finally got it to work

Try leaving your battery out when you do it.

Also, try using a different USB port.
[Fascinate General] Xxw0lfxX:
I'll try that, but I've done it a few times with no luck so far... But IF I do get it working, once it's in Downloading mode, I press start in Odin right? Then once it's passed what then?
[Fascinate General] rushfanx1:
Correct... Once you see the Yellow Triangle and it says Downloading, you should see in Odin a Yellow Box on the COM line.. SHowing you are connected,

Then, in the files area, select the CWM Tar file you want to install.. Make sure you select in in the PDA area...

Then press START

Then it turned off my phone. But still, when I want to change something in the rom, it reboots, verifys package install, then loads into blue recovery mode again....?
[Fascinate General] rushfanx1:
From Blue Recovery, you should select Update.zip...

That should bring you to Green Recovery
[Fascinate General] rcs7:
What does it mean when it won't boot green recovery? I'm having the same problem too.
[Fascinate General] rushfanx1:
There are 3 different color Recovery Screens

Blue

Green

Red (Voodoo)

As long as Ive been doing this (which is about 2 months), ive always booted to Blue, selected Apply update.zip and then it booted to Green.

From Green, you can then wipe your cache/stats etc.. and then install your custom ROM.

I decided to try installing EB01 Stock using the RED recovery and all seems to have worked fine... So, I guess green is no longer needed

If anyone has any additional comments, please help us out.
[Fascinate General] Xxw0lfxX:
So from blue, I apply update from sd card, then it takes me into red... LOL I'm so lost
[Fascinate General] dukan0660:
copy cm folder from.other i 500
[Fascinate General] Xxw0lfxX:
Ok, I'm still confused on where I should go from here

So let me start out from the beginning....

I'm running the latest Cwm, with Blackhole-4.01 . When I went to change the theme or anything on the rom, the phone reboots, verify package, then shows me the samsung screen, and from there it shows me the Blue Recovery.

So I was told to flash a custome recovery via odin from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=942021 . So I start my computer into Downloading mode, and flash cwm_froyo.tar

That then gives me

"<ID:0/011> Added!!

<ID:0/011> File analysis..

<ID:0/011> SetupConnection..

<ID:0/011> recovery.bin

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 1 / failed 0)

<ID:0/011> Removed!!"

and shuts off the phone.

So now I put the battery in, and turn on the phone and it reboots into blue recovery. From what I understand I'm suppose to apply sdcard:update.zip . From there it now shows me CwM Voodoo Lagfix Recovery v2.5.1.x Red. At the bottom of the screen it shows

"E:Missing bitmap progress_empty (Code -1)"

"E:Missing bitmap progress_fill (code -1)"

"CwM Voodoo Lagfix Recovery v2.5.1.x"

What do I do from here? Lol, or am I not even suppose to be in this screen. It seems I'm missing bits and pieces of the whole process
[Fascinate General] uslacson1:
You can ignore the error message it does not affect recovery functions.

Choose the option you need and proceed as with green recovery.
[Fascinate General] Xxw0lfxX:
But when I apply update from sd on red, the screen turns blank and just sits there with the four lights on the bottom lit up.
[Fascinate General] uslacson1:
What update are you trying to install?
[Fascinate General] Xxw0lfxX:
The Updated ClockworkMod for all (non-voodoo) ROMs. I was told that I had to do that seeing as how when I try to modify my existing rom to make changes, that the phone reboots into blue recovery, and wont allow me to make any changes
[Fascinate General] uslacson1:
From your previous post you have mentioned the error message associated

with the new red CWM, if you are able to get to that then you already have the updated recovery.
[Fascinate General] Xxw0lfxX:
Ok, so why is it when I modify my rom, and the system reboots to apply the modification, does the phone reboot showing blue recovery. And when I actually get the phone booted back up, the changes were not made?
[Fascinate General] uslacson1:
if you're doing it with rom manager you need to copy update.zip from your sd card rename it recovery-update and replace the file in clockworkmod folder
[Wildfire Android Development] warriorvibhu:
Hello Everyone,

This is Just a small and easy mod/guide for all those who want Default Android Lockscreen and like me hate the HTC slide down Lockscreen:

Usual Warning : I am not responsible if by doing the steps below ::

You brick your phone (Highly unlikely if you follow only given steps).

Your GF starts loving your phone and wants it.

Your GF gets pregnant. Its you who did it ;) .. well hopefully :P

Let's not delete your lockscreen just keep it in case you want it back. yeah yeah i am all for safety just like my rom.

(Always be safe) :p

STEP BY STEP GUIDE​

Connect your phone and use ROM manager to reboot into recovery alternatively you can disconnect your phone reboot into recovery (vol down+power) and then connect your cable when you can see the green text.

Select partition menu or mount ** (dont remember the option its mount something something) depending on your recovery version and

Mount system

Now i hope you know how to use adb. (Download and install android sdk)

Open command prompt (cd "path to android-sdk-windows/tools" without quotes) on my pc for example it is

cd C:\android-sdk-windows\tools

If you're on LINUX i am sure you know what to do.next all instructions are same:for Windows and Linux

Run following commands

adb remount
adb shell
cd /system/app
mv HtcLockScreen.apk HtcLockScreen.bak
exit

Now you will get a nice transparent default android lockscreen.

In case you want your stock HTC lockscreen back do this

adb remount
adb shell
cd /system/app
mv HtcLockScreen.bak HtcLockScreen.apk
exit

I have tried this with SUnAaBh ROM and it works flawlessly and ideally should work with every ROM including those not meant for HTC Wildfire.

The suggestion in the next post i.e post No.2 will cause your framework to change i.e your Theme and look of icons on notification bar, dropdown bar, battery icon etc SO to Preserve your framework just INSTALL THIS FILE..its same from attachment.

Hit Thanks if it helped.

Will using this work:

- If you set a alarm ( for waking up or something ), does it work then?

- If you start Angry Birds, to make it working I must power off my screen, go to lockscreen and unlock it. And then I could play. Does this work too with this lockscreen?

Thanks in advance!

I've tried this a minute ago! And it's really simple.

1. Download the android-sdk-windows folder and place it anywhere

2. start cmd.exe ( open it via start > cmd.exe )

2. Enter: cd: C:\whatever\whatever\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools

3. enter: adb.exe

4. then enter the things from the first page ( the adb commands )

5. unmount system ( ! ) on phone

6. reboot phone.

And you got it! I really don't ever used adb! So it's really simple with instructions. Maybe you could include my instructions?

How to apply these HewGballpatches ... ?? by flashing them right ?? i am using wildpuzzle v8 .... shd work 4 it ryt ...
[Wildfire Android Development] wildfire.daniel:
sorry i didnt notice... i was typing at the start>run windows... >.< sorry ahhaha... now i did it and now why the sliders are so fat????????? i've been to aosp roms before and the sliders are not as FAAT as this.................... what should i do?!
[Wildfire Android Development] warriorvibhu:
Yeah but that patch modifies your framework.. So u can get boot loops / force closes etc etc..

Yeah that can be done .. i will make a patch..
[Wildfire Android Development] xyzisahero:
So i just wanted to be sure before trying the Hewgball patches ...

so after it modifies the framework .. can i just flash a new rom or do a nandroid backup .. and the modified framework would revert back right ??

nd also the boot loops if in case i get it ... the solution would be flashing a rom or a nandroid backup right ... :/

nd yeah i am currently using Sunaabh rom .... so it works for it right ???

nd one more ques which one should i use to have the android slide lockscreen ...

*install_htclockscreen.zip

replaces the HtcLockscreen.apk

or

*remove_HtcLockscreen.zip

removes HTC Lockscreen and world clock

installs stock clock and applies lockscreen fixes done by me

( smaller slider + disable menu unlock + layout fix) Lockscreen wallpaper is left to transparent until i figure out how to set homescreen wallpaper.

This one can be used on any Sense froyo rom
[Wildfire Android Development] Alex_GP:
This one.10 cheap chars
[Wildfire Android Development] kaefert:
Is the "DeskClock.apk" from your first post that patch for thinner bars? It doesn't seem to work for me, even after reboot I still got the thick bars...

When flashing "remove_HtcLockscreen.zip" you get thin bars, but you loose the htc clock app that normally starts when clicking the htc clock widget.. (the one with stop clock and timer and world clock and all that stuff)

So does a solution exist to have both: thin bars in the AOSP unlock screen and a working htc clock app?
[Wildfire Android Development] Alex_GP:
No, if you keep the htc clock but use the default lock screen, you can't stop alarms. Just use another clock widget like beautiful widget or fancy widget.
[Wildfire Android Development] Popples:
So, Is there (and, in case, which is) a way to have only the android lock screen instead of the Htc one, without any other changes (framework, clock, icons ecc.)???

Thanks.
[Wildfire Android Development] kaefert:
Just read the first post: If you delete, move, rename this apk:

"/system/app/HtcLockScreen.apk" Then you will have something close to the AOSP lockscreen, but the icons and bars will be too big. To have those bars in the original size you have to use the method of the second post but this will change a lot and break the htc clock app
[Wildfire Android Development] kaefert:
the "Beautiful Widgets" app costs 2€ in the market, is that what you ment?

and the "Fancy Widget", at least the free version doesn't seem to have half of the features that the HTC Clock has: Stopwatch, Timer, Alarmclock, World Clock, Weather

This really is not even remotly a replacement for the HTC Clock
[Wildfire Android Development] Alex_GP:
I was just suggesting a clock WIDGET, not a clock APP. See the difference?

The default alarm clock app, from the HewGBalls thread has the alarm clock feature...

If remember right Fancy Widget Free had weather, two months ago when I tested it, don`t know if it has it now.

Yeah, Beautiful Widgets is what I meant. Been using it since I gave up on Sense`s crappy performance and went the Launcher Pro (2.99$) and BW (2 euros) way.
[Wildfire Android Development] Popples:
I just wanted to try the Android lookscreen, but if it gives, as I'm reading, all these troubles I think I forget it....

Thanks.
[Wildfire Android Development] kaefert:
Well of course I know the difference between a Widget and an Application. But the HTC Clock is both and has lots of features that I like. And a Widget-Only thingy cannot replace that..
[Wildfire Android Development] kaefert:
Well the first method (renaming "/system/app/HtcLockScreen.apk") does not have any side effects (not that I have noticed) and is easily undone by just renaming it back.
[Wildfire Android Development] Popples:
Not even with the Htc Clock?
[Wildfire Android Development] kaefert:
No. Just moving the HtcLockScreen.apk didn't give me any side-effects, but as stated this doesn't give you the real AOSP-Lockscreen, because the unlock bar is to thick. But its probably better than the htc lockscreen either way ;)

EDIT: Now I did find an issue with the lockscreen achieved by renaming the HtcLockScreen.apk:

Pressing the Menu-Button has the same effect as the unlock-slider..
[Wildfire Android Development] Alex_GP:
I`ve heard that other htc phones also have this bug/feature.
[Wildfire Android Development] Popples:
I've solved installing two apps:

- No Lock to remove the HTC LockScreen

- LockBot that includes several type of LockScreen (and also the Android one ;))
[Wildfire Android Development] :
Yeah. Worked for me. The solution even for unrooted phones. Thanks
[Wildfire Android Development] ErwinP:
For those who do not like the thick bars of the default android lockscreen, but don't manage to install the patch from http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10192875&postcount=2.

First of all:

as said by warriorvibhu, you have different icons etc (see printscreen attached) due to the changes in your framework (correct me if I'm wrong). What I did was copy the entire system/framework folder to my computer (altough I think I only need "android.policy.jar" and "Framework-res.apk"). And I also did an nandroid backup. So in this case, if you do not like your new look, you can always go back.

Second: you can unlock your phone by the menu button. This is not nice to me, but time will teach if that is a problem. Just telling so you know.

What I did:

1. do exactly what warriorvibhu says in the first post

2. download "remove_HtcLockscreen.zip" from the link above

3. open the remove_HtcLockscreen.zip and copy the "system" folder to C:\android-sdk-windows\tools

-> you now have a map in the tools folder, called system

4. Open command prompt (cd "path to android-sdk-windows/tools" without quotes)

5. Run following commands:

adb remount
adb shell
cd system/app
mv WorldClock.apk WorldClock.bak
exit
adb push system/app system/app
-> this copies the files in the system/app map on your computer to your phone
adb push system/framework system/framework
-> this copies the files in the system/framework map on your computer to your phone
adb reboot

here are some screenies. Note that I

- use LauncherPro Plus as home launcher (so the Icons below do not come with this new framework)

- I use fancy widget to get the htc-look-a-like flip clock.

- the pull-down bar has a slightly different look due to the framework changes

- the unluck-pattern has smaller buttons due to the framework changes

- again, you can unlock the whole thing just by pushing the menu button

Thats all :)

Btw, does anyone know if there is an easy way to make the pull-down bar transparant? Or do I need to make changes in the framework.apk manualy (decode, look for the pull-down image, change it, rebuild)?

And a second thing, can this lockscreen be changed easily? Because, as you can see in the second picture, I think the clock of the lockscreen is annoying and makes the whole thing unreadable.

Erwin

EDIT: actually, there are more differences in this new framework, like collor changes and an other layout of menu's. En to be honest, I think it looks like **** :)
[Wildfire Android Development] ErwinP:
A bit frustrating

As you can see I managed to make a lot of things of the status bar transparant, but not the statusbar background itself..

I made almost everything that begun with "status_bar_" in the res folder of framework-res.apk to an opacity of 30%, but the really desired background transparantie doesn't work.

Does anyone know what else I should do?

Thank you in advance!

Is it possible to have the new sense 3.0 locksreen by porting the locsreen.apk of sense 3.0 ?

I mean replace the stock one in sense 2.0. :)
[Wildfire Android Development] Karting06:
It is possible :)

Take the lockscreen of SenseOnFire:

[Wildfire Android Development] bynge:
You mean with usual notifications ?

I am using Sense 2.0 launcher and want htclockscreen from Sense3.0 through a native apk. Not by 3rd party softies.

Shall i extract it from Senseonfire and replace my native apk from Sense2.0 ?

Biggest apprehension is the compatibility of Sense3 lockscreen to sense2.0 launcher.

Primarily, there won't be an option to customize icons on lockscreen, as it is a new feature in sense3.0
[Wildfire Android Development] VigiDroid:
What rom are you using? The wildfire doesn't have a sense 2.0 based rom....
[Wildfire Android Development] bynge:
Ya, you're right.

I am running Stock 2.2 ROM, where the Sense is stil ver 1.0

Does this change anything ?.

What I am doing now is replaced my stock apk with SenseonFire apk. But I get the Android lockscreen :(

Has anything additional to be done to get the replaced apk working ? Like odex files or anything ?

@Vigidroid: Notifications are working on your lockscreen ?. I am not too demanding on Music player widget, Weather animation and other features.

How would I go about with customizing the lock screen shortcuts/time ? Any thoughts ?
[Wildfire Android Development] VigiDroid:
Well considering the htclockscreen will probably be calling on things from resources that are only in senseonfire rom and roms that are based on sense 3.0. To edit shortcuts you need the new personalize menu that is only available in sense 2.1/3.0. So my say would be that there is no way you will get this working on roms based on sense under v 2.1 unless the .apk has been severely modified..

If you still want to get the sense 3.0 lockscreen on it without modifying or switching roms, you can always download agile lock from the market. There is a free version but you can unlock the full paid features by downloading a couple of apps which once installed can be uninstalled and the lock app registers it as downloaded and then unlocks the features.
