[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] catsfive:
Guys, don't laugh at this question, but I am running a 100% updated Dell Streak with 1.7.0. Some of my apps that require root won't work. How can I tell if my phone is rooted? Is it rooted automatically if I have 1.7.0 (a friend of mine did it for me, so that's why I might be a bit confused)?

Are there and instructions on how to root my phone with DJ Steve's ROM installed? I found some threads but they have conflicting info. THANKS IN ADVANCE and also thank you to everyone who works so hard and shares their smarts with guys like me so that I don't have to own an Ed Hardy iPhone. :D
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marvin02:
1.7.0 is rooted already. Is the SU icon in your app tray?

Try turning the phone off and then on.

Install the busbox installer from the market. When you run it it will tell you if you have busybox installed.

If you did not get SU and busybox as part of the ROM you may want to flash it again. Who knows what else isn't right?
[Samsung Mesmerize] obliviator33:
I like the default Froyo theme but the battery Icon in the status bar is completely worthless because it doesn't accurately reflect the current percent remaining.

Is is possible to change only this icon?
[Samsung Mesmerize] phidelt82:
If you have flashed the Froyo Pick-n-Pack ROM, you can go to the UOT kitchen here, and upload the framework-res.apk file from the ROM. It will implement accurate battery mod for you and then you just have to flash the package that comes out. Pretty easy to do.
[Samsung Mesmerize] obliviator33:
Success! Thank you. That website is very handy.
[Samsung Mesmerize] BakedTator:
phidelt82...what are your super secret mods and rom...i wanna try it...not knowing is killin me...lmao
[Samsung Mesmerize] bdemartino:
Without getting too in depth, I'll try to explain;

To change battery pictures, you must open the framework-res.apk file in 7zip and replace the existing .png files with the ones you want (while i'ts still "compressed" aka packaged, DO NOT UNZIP IT. Sounds easy, but it get's complicated;

Accurate battery mod means that the XML has been edited to show an image at more specific battery levels (1,2,3,4,5...) So, if what ever theme/rom you're trying to change already has this mod in it then you just have to make sure that the theme you're pulling the new clock images from also has the mod. This is obvious because there are more images than the stock version (it went by 10's and 15's)

EDIT: Just going to leave this random bit of info here lol..
[Samsung Mesmerize] akellar:
I think he was actually referring to Phidelt's "projects" he's been hinting at and referring to in his sig lately. Good info on themeing though!
[Samsung Mesmerize] bdemartino:
Yea.... for some reason I didn't even see phidelt's post...we'll just pretend that question was asked instead lol (you may want to edit your quote since I was a dumbass the first time)
[Samsung Mesmerize] gr4ybu5h:
I'm having trouble finding the rom on the website. What is it under?
[Samsung Mesmerize] bdemartino:
After you've selected your battery icons and color it should give you the option to upload your framework-res.apk, after that when you go to the pickup page there should be a heading of "my uploads" or something, seperate from the rest of them. That will be the one you did.
[Samsung Mesmerize] gr4ybu5h:
It seems as though this has to be done from your computer. Am I wrong? I tried doing it from my phone and when I click on "choose file", it takes me to a page where it says "no files found"
[Samsung Mesmerize] gr4ybu5h:
Alright. I finally found where to upload the file (using the computer and not the phone). Now everytime I try to upload the framework-res.apk file, the upload fails. Am I doing something wrong?
[Samsung Mesmerize] bdemartino:
I had to try a few times too, it's finicky.

Swyped from my Mesmerize
[Samsung Mesmerize] gr4ybu5h:
I got it to upload and it spit out a file. I flashed the file it gave me and the battery icon is still the same
[Samsung Mesmerize] gr4ybu5h:
Sorry I keep bringing up this topic but I've tried flashing the .zip that the kitchen spits out twice. I've disabled lagfix. It doesn't seem to want to work for me. I may to give up on this mod. Is there a detail that I'm missing? Heres what I'm doing:

I have the unzipped PnP file on my computer.

I go to the kitchen and cook up my file.

I upload my framework-res.apk.

It takes like 10-15 mins. And receive my file.

From my computer, I put the file it cooked up on my sd card.

Boot into recovery, Disable lagfix and reboot

Boot into recovery again, select install .zip from sd card

Select my cooked up file, and reboot

And my battery is still the same

What am I doing wrong?

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] tribalb:
So I've made some icons and used desktop visualizer. But is there any way to align them without launcher pro or adw...id like to keep my twlauncher
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] gtuansdiamm:
Try extracting the apk with 7zip that you wanna put a new icon for and replacing the regular icon with yours

Jus saying im not sure if it will work so try a experiment first
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] tribalb:
Oh I don't think you understand what im saying. I kinda wanted the windows 7 look but keep twlauncher without switching to adw or launcher pro. Those 2 launchers align the widget icons better. Give me a sec to take a screenshot
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] tribalb:
There. As you can see the widgets are not aligned straight
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] jmcghee1973:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koreancanuck:
AT&T and T-mobile have different 3g bands. I believe Vibrant actually has AT&T 3G bands that can be used but not Captivate for T-mobile. Probably best to sell your captivate and get a phone that works with T-mobile 3G

[Galaxy S I9000 General] SamsungJohn:
Hello Guys,

My name is John, I recently became the social media analyst at Samsung mobile. I wanted to start opening the lines of communication between XDA and Samsung. First I wanted to say I have noticed your work on our devices on the XDA forums. I think you guys do an outstanding job, I myself am a developer for mobile devices. So let’s get down to business, we’re going to be in Austin from March 10-15 for the SXSW(south by southwest http://sxsw.com/convention). I was wondering if any of you guys are going so that we could meet up and share a couple of ideas I have. I am looking forward to meeting some of you GREAT developers!

Thanks in advance,

John

Hi!

Quoting myself from the Vibrant thread :
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Auzy:
First things first.. It would be nice if you guys made a roadmap for stuff under development for our phone. At the moment, we have no idea which bugs are getting fixed or when. And we have no idea what's being worked on. We don't need a accurate timeframe, simply an indication of what's being worked on

Even better, track the serial numbers/IMEI of the phones, and allow each owner to vote on where development should be targeted (such as what Dune HD does). You could even make an application on the Samsung store to let us vote directly on the phones (which might make it even better).

I wont be there in Austin (too far), but I think what I have mentioned is important, because Samsung tech support is unresponsive and horrible (when you send them a bug by email, you NEVER get a response). However, by at least implementing a voting feature, poor tech support suddenly becomes less relevant.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] jj03:
I have a simple suggestion. Samsung are really ontop when it comes to hardware but we haven't seen any advancement in battery technology. Perhaps, as well as focusing on samoled screens power saving prowess, we could address where we are on the battery side of things. So many features require a modern battery.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Captainkrtek:
Check your Private messages John, sent you something
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Kewjoe:
Let's not turn this thread into a laundry list of things we want from Samsung. That's not the point and it'll just spiral out of control.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] [Ramad]:
I think that this is a big and important step from Samsung, which they should have done earlier, to be present instead of being silent all the time.

It's for sure that there is brilliant developers at XDA that has done some excellent work, imagine how much they could have done if there someone they could get answers from when the questions do present them self.

PS: does your initiative comes from Korea or you didn't shared yet? I must tell you about a few people there ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Maddmatt:
It's great to see Samsung getting involved here. I hope this is not just for PR purposes, Samsung and the customers would get huge benefits if you work together with the developers here.

For a start, I recommend you take a good look into the work that members Supercurio and Hardcore on this forum have done, and work on implementing them into your own firmware.

The difference the 3rd party firmware on the Galaxy S makes is huge. It's faster, the screen looks sharper and better, and the new sound drivers they have worked on are brilliant. The two members I mentioned seem to be the main ones contributing to this.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Logicalstep:
How about not fragmenting Android and talking to the devs about the best way to allow them access to all the firmware and drivers that are currently not open sourced? (NDA for select devs maybe?)

This would give you all the love you require form the Members here ;)

My phone reboots before the rom loads, I rooted my evo using the unrevoked method and everything was fine until it started to reboot on its own. I, however, messed up and ran an older pc36img.zip so it unrooted me to 2.1 (2.1 does not reboot in other words its stable) thats not where the problem is at, when i do the over the air updates and get to 2.2 it reboots again and i would just take it to sprint but the s-off is my problem. What can I do fix the reboot or show s-on?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Almost sounds like a boot loop. If you can still boot into recovery, do a full wipe, then reflash a rom. That should help.

Because SBC for Netarchy's 4.2.2 More Aggressive CFS has trickal charge for the battery i had 4.3 installed and battery charger would stop chargeing over night at 100%.this one does not turn off and i feel this is a better battery chargering one.I would be at 100% when i first took it off charger and drink a cup of coffee then it would be at 95% before i was done..I know camera works on that one,but I just dont understand why it doesnt work on this one.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nosympathy:
I would say take a look at the Savaged.Zen kernals. You can get them with trickle charging and they work on the 0004 HW. I am running Savaged.Zen version 0.0.5 BFS with SBC (AKA trickle charge) for GingerBread and the camera works fine. They have a froyo version that works fine as well for the 0004 HW.

Netarchys Kernals are nice, but since I mainly use AOSP roms I prefer these kernals. The kernals support WiMax as well.

Hi everybody,

Today I stumbled upon a very important collection of info - Worldwide list of Access Point Names(APN). I am presenting that hoping it will help many of my friends here.

I have converted this into a PDF file so that everybody can download it and keep with them for offline use and as a ready reference.

I also hope that some ROM modder will include this into their ROM and save people from hassle of setting up APNs while changing SIM cards.

Hope it helps !

Not sure if this changes in 2.2, but the stock dialer is horrid compared to HTC, it isn't the worst thing in the world, but I am surprised there aren't more dialers available. I was wondering what people use for a dialer, do you usually download a 3rd party app? Use a dev-made dialer?

Just have not had this so long, I would love to just hear the responses.

Thanks so much in advance (and can we stick this to 2.1? The dialer may change in 2.2 but I have stuck with 2.1)

Dialer in 2.2 is not any better. In fact it logs your sms as call logs so for somone like me who goes through 6000 ( literary) texts a month it becomes annoying. I'm using "diar one". Its fast and has a lot more cutomization options. Give it a shot. It's free on the market.
