I know Launcher Pro always has that contacts issue for me when I flash a new ROM.... but the fix should be easy. As Jstine stated, simply long-press on contacts, choose 'change shortcut', then 'applications', then 'contacts', then choose the icon you want, and voila..... hopefully, lol. I hope this does it for you bro, and maybe the same will work for phone??
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Did you try a factory reset will in CWM3. Install the standard rom, check your phone and contacts. Then try installing the theme. What do you mean by "Yes I am using the newest Launcher Pro" it's already in the theme you shouldn't have install it again. The ACS full version which comes with TW3 Laucher. For LP *.03 all that is needed is your key. Are you using the full version of ACS rom or the standard?
[Epic 4G Themes] dazednconfused:
I tried it with the Launcher Pro that came with the theme, and I also have Launcher Pro Plus it didnt work either way. Ive tried it with both ACS version with the Syndicate Rom and the Bonsai 3.0 with the Bonsai Rom. Im having issues with both.

My phone and contacts are completely removed from my application list as well for some reason. When you do the long press and go to applications they are missing there as well, like they disappeared. I checked and they are there before I flash the Theme and after reboot they are gone??? When I go back to my restore without the theme, everything is fine.

I haven't tried the factory reset while in CWM3, but I will look into that and give it a try. I used Odin to go back to stock eb13 and one click root with CWM3 and have the same issues. Tried reformat on my SD card and everything. Let me look into that reset while in CWM3 and try that.
[Epic 4G Themes] dazednconfused:
Im using the Fully Loaded version. Im getting ready to try the factory reset and standard version of the Rom. Sorry about the double post in advance.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Thanks for the feedback. Could be that what the problem is, since I have not use the full version with TW3. May have to update my zip for ACS Full Version. Let me know if your problems stop with the standard version. Later today or tomorrow I will post another zip made for the full version.
[Epic 4G Themes] dazednconfused:
Ok, I tried Wipe data/factory reset 3x, wiped cache 3x, wipe Delvik 3x, flashed the standard version of the rom and everything was ok. Phone, contacts and everything was fine. Did wipes and flashed theme and all of the problems came back. Phone and contacts force closed and both are missing out of applications. Long pressed the icon and Launcher Pro force closes. I even tried without the wipes in between the rom and theme and I get the same problem.

I tried the Blue Glass theme and got the same issues. Then I tried Emotionless Beast theme and everything works fine. Its just in those 2 themes. Sorry for being a pain to you all but I don't have a clue what I'm doing wrong. I really love the Black Void theme. Well I'm giving up for a few. Sorry I couldnt be anymore help for you all. Thanks for all of your help. I haven't heard anyone else complain so its got to be something that I'm doing wrong. Its really no big rush for me, so try to enjoy a little of your vacation.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Is there anyone else reading this post and having the same problem? Please post a comment of yes of no. I really need to know if this is more wide spread than one person.:confused:
[Epic 4G Themes] yogi2010:
I was gonna say that the ROM/theme combo posted in the dev. section worked fine for me..... I might have had to change the contact shortcut to one that worked, but it did work. And no problems with the phone shortcut.

and for what it's worth, i Odined to stock EB13 before flashing.
[Epic 4G Themes] rhyme187:
it seems im not the only one then cause i to share the same problem
[Epic 4G Themes] dazednconfused:
oh, then I'm not all by myself in this matter. Ive even got a lot of issues when I try the Bonsai Theme with the Bonsai Rom. Phone and messages and contacts all force close. I wish they would've let him leave it as a combo when he had it in development as a rom. I wish I still had that link, I would have like to try that. These 2 themes are just beautiful on the phone.
[Epic 4G Themes] yogi2010:
oh damn sorry, i didn't realize the DL link had been removed from that thread. i have the file on my computer, and if there's a way to get it to you and no one minds, i will. otherwise i'm sure there will be a fix soon.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
A question for all that posted with the same problem. Did you Odin to DI18 stock before you did an Odlin to EB13 stock before loading custom roms? Just looking a common denominator to the problem. I for one can not duplicate the problem. Just wondering if the above process is the the difference.
[Epic 4G Themes] rhyme187:
i did not odin to stock first in fear of loosing gps lock...
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
I did just as I said and I have GPS lock. For those having problems I suggest you Odin DI18, then Odin stock EB13 before. I install both of themes and made several call in and out. Use Contacts, GPS,Phone,Market,Phone again, Contact again. And my phone has been off the charger since 1900 hrs yesterday and still at 47%.

Why some are not have problems with Emotionless Beast I don't have an answer.
[Epic 4G Themes] dazednconfused:
Just wanted to say thanks again jstine671 for all of your help on this issue today. I love this theme and it looks so slick and smooth on my epic. I would also like to think Yogi2010 for helping me out earlier today as well.
[Epic 4G Themes] MysteryEmotionz:
I read back a little bit and I see people are having problems with contacts and phone disappearing. So I got a couple questions. Are they missing from the app draw or twlauncher it self? Is this problem only happening on the loaded rom or standeres also
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Good question, I have since labled the link as standard. I am going to download the full version and install and see if that is the problem. thanks ME
[Epic 4G Themes] Sleeth7:
Has anyone tested this theme with SFR 1.0.1 yet? Any issues?
[Epic 4G Themes] MysteryEmotionz:
Don't. It will look like it works but cause problems where you can't see.
[Epic 4G Themes] Sleeth7:
Thanks for the heads up ME. Perhaps a change in the OP title then so that it doesn't say ACS 1.0.1

I'm browsing from the xda app and all I see is acs 1.0.1, bonsai 3 a the end of the title before it gets cut off. Could be a little misleading. Thanks again
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
New updated will be posted in about 30 mins from now (1230 CMT)
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
updated theme for newer rom 3/10/11.
[Epic 4G Themes] yogi2010:
cool, thx! just to make sure, we just flash this over our Bonsai ROM, no need to delete any existing apk's?
[Epic 4G Themes] yogi2010:
got it flashed and working! do you have your black-ish Gmail from before? i have tried to move it from the ACS/theme combo from before, but it always shows up stock. can't figure that out... i'm pretty sure i delete ALL traces of the old one.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Yes for flash over and No for removing apk's.

You may want to download the HomeSwitcher.apk found in post #2 since Bonsani uses TW3 in his rom. TW3 only comes in ACS fully loaded.

Yes, the one that ME uses. But several peopple complained that they hard a problem reading some of lines that remained in black on a black background. So I stopped using it until I get more time to look at the file.
[Epic 4G Themes] yogi2010:
excellent, thanks my friend! but as I recall, you had a semi-blackened Gmail in the Frozen ROM/void theme combo that was pulled? that Gmail was black-ish, but not all black in the messages, and was AWESOME and no problem to read. I keep trying to put that apk from the rom/theme into system/app, or data/app, and it installs but keeps showing up as stock.

anyway, not a big deal at all.... LOVE the theme! and I'm using K9 with dark theme for now. thanks a bunch!
[Epic 4G Themes] MysteryEmotionz:
I have the newest version of gmail included I'm my theme and its black but the messages are stock. I would use that. The original black gmail is an older version. The roms are using a new version of gmail and that's why the changes ain't sticking.using root explorer delete all instances of gmail in system/app, data/app and data/data before flashing
[Epic 4G Themes] yogi2010:
right on, Mystery, will do.thanks a LOT, I appreciate the help!

SOLUTION for LOST IMEI in Galaxy 3 / GT-i5800 / GT-i5801

1. Check that you are ROOTed (probable), insert an SD card, and connect with USB Debugging enabled.

2. Run a terminal. ("adb shell")

3. Issue the commands below:

$ su

then

# dd if=/dev/block/stl4 of=/sdcard/i5800xt.dat bs=16 skip=4

..

or

(ONLY if the last one failed with "/dev/block/stl4: cannot open for read: No such file or directory")

# dd if=/dev/block/mtl4 of=/sdcard/i5800xt.dat bs=16 skip=4

NOTE that if step 3 (last) fails, probably means you have a damaged NAND chip.

4. Exit terminal (ctrl-c, or more elegantly, typing 'exit' twice.

5. Copy the file 'i5800xt.dat' from the SD card with any method (reader or adb)

6. I can calculate/verify hash now - which is not checked in phone anyway - so no photo necessary anymore!

7. Create a ZIP / RAR archive with the i5800xt.dat from (5)

8. Send me a PM for a mail address to which you can send your archive. I will need the IMEI as well (in the email text is OK)

9. I will send you your repaired nv_data.bin.

DO NOT ATTACH YOUR FILES HERE. OR YOUR PHONE WILL BE BARRED.

DO NOT send me email or bump the thread for your sake of 'urgency'! Everyone has things to do for living.

NOTE that this NOT necessarily solves your problem..

That's why this service is FREE *for a period* but NO WARRANTY.

Also, i5801 processing is added now (being in alpha stage)

However, I just solved my problem.

And, it is unlikely to get any worse, definitely.
[Galaxy 3 General] crusher:
My method has the definite advantage over others (box, etc) in that - when it works - you won't overwrite your battery and RF calibration data (symptoms: weaker reception, shorter battery life).

Of course, if they are already gone, nothing can really be done about it.
[Galaxy 3 General] flores.diane02:
what about i5801
[Galaxy 3 General] Szaby59:
Same device...
[Galaxy 3 General] stubborn_d0nkey:
I think the i5800 ONLY! in the title might be a hint...
[Galaxy 3 General] Szaby59:
i5801 is the same phone as i5800.

If this method works with 00 it will work with 01 too.
[Galaxy 3 General] stubborn_d0nkey:
lol.

They are not the same. they would be called the same if they were the same. There are differences, however minute they are. It is not true that everything that works for i5800 will work for i5801.
[Galaxy 3 General] Szaby59:
i5800 software works on i5801, so they are the same.

The only difference that i5801 has touch sensitive keys.

ALl custom roms and i5800 boot loader works with 01.
[Galaxy 3 General] disconsolate:
...has anyone tried this, and does this really work, or is he simply collating IMEI numbers :(
[Galaxy 3 General] crusher:
Well, i5801 may qualify as well!!

thanks for pointing this out

But NO i5700 etc
[Galaxy 3 General] crusher:
Sorry to point this out, but I am a member here for 6 years..

Wouldn't you think this would not make sense "collecting IMEI numbers" for 6 years?

Anyway, this IMEI thing has gone WAY too far..

Anyone doing this longer than 2 years must be able to calculate checkdigit.

I just take the TAC part (first 6 digits), then I can generate as many valid IMEIs as I wish, so this does not make sense only for noobs..

Not mentioning that one forgot to read the actual procedure.

For this half-rebuild procedure, I just need the IMEI for verification purposes.

Thus I trust anyone else just that much they trust me..

But I can decode the IMEI from the dump, so IMEI is asked ONLY for comparison - anyone lying should tell a definite smelling or otherwise interesting story - or not bother at all.

[Galaxy 3 General] crusher:
then please post here your version (*#1234#) along with the output of command of "mount", and the list of "ls -a -l /dev/block".

adding a "CODE" tag here around a longer output should be wise.

(nb. mtl4 is lowercase MTL4, no big i, or similar)
[Galaxy 3 General] cadusir:
Hi dear crusher

First, congratulations because you did a great job.

Second, I don't have any problem with my IMEI but somehow I'm interested in your method that is subject of my second question!

now 2 questions:

1. I did what you said now I have a i5800xt.dat file (4351KB) in my sdcard.

the problem is that when I go to /dev/block with Root Explorer there is only an empty (vold) folder. no stl4 no mtl4.

Edit: Problem solved!

It seems that we can't see stl files with Root Explorer.

used Terminal Emulator and all files are there :)

2. my real problem is that my phone is locked and none of the unlock methods for SGS working for me (us?) because as you know our NV_data.bin file is different from them.

Now that you are familiar with NV_data.bin do you know any way to unlock SG3?

there is no SSNV in a lot of NV_data.bin files from SG3.

Best regards

Terribly sorry, pals, I managed to toast my southbridge on my laptop with a "careless" USB experiment, and just managed to get another one.

Some days till I get accustomed with it (updates, kernel-mode and comms drivers, disabling checks, policies, etc) and I will continue on.

(In the meantime if anyone has a new AF82801IBM for sale I would be grateful.. Due to a recent legal issue I have no means of reballing one ATM)
[Galaxy 3 General] cadusir:
Oh dear, even after 40 days they are still one of the most beautiful tags I've ever seen in this forum!

:D

ummm .. ah... yes... and dear god please send a brand new AF82801 IBM from heavens to my friend crusher, cheap and tax free.

P.S.1. no offence crusher I was just jokeing. acually if you do it for us it will be a great favor.

people pay money for this and you're doing it free for us.

P.S.2. please remember no to toast your southbridge of the brand new IBM that god is going to send you!

good luck

Hy chrusher...

Desperately need help.

After the network unlock, everything works as it should only missing IMEI (000000000000)

Please can you do for me hash calculate for my GT-I5800.

I will send you to the PM. Zip file 'i5800xt.dat' and. Txt file my IMEI, with the back of the device.

I'm not sure, shuld I in /efs change just nv_data.bin, or I need to modify MDH5 file ..

I ask for advice, of course, when replacing files

>adb shell

$su

# mount -o remount, rw / dev/block/stl4 / efs

#cd /efs

#cp nv_data.bin /sdcard/backup/nv_data.bin

#rm nv_data.bin

then for example:

#cp /sdcard/your_nv_data.bin nv_data.bin

I am not shure is this mount point correct :-(

Grateful in advance Tomass..

[Wildfire General] zephyri-xr:
They twitted:

unrevoked

Maybe good news for people with HTC Wildfire. We're looking at it. (Also maybe good news for people with EVO Shift 4G sooner or later.)

so we wait as always :)
[Wildfire General] SrKlein:
they wrote this a month ago or so, and theres no news... if they had something they would have said something... so i guess they dont have anything at all... :(

[Wildfire General] Ardeloth:
SSDD.... We're all waiting here guys no need for drama.

Its just that as i said before, no news is not always good news... They could at least give out an update on their progress...

Either way not much we can do at the moment. Enjoy our stock ROMs :)
[Wildfire General] FrogdogSweden:
Ungreatful? What do we have to be

greatful of? All the information and statusupdates that they share on the progress? I can't understand why its so hard to just post a simple statusupdate of the progress if there is any or just tell ppl that the project is no longer alive. Just say something.
[Wildfire General] 3xeno:
You dont have to be grateful of anything. No one is saying you to go ga-ga over them and pay them with your money and stuff like that. But, there is no reason to simply go and badmouth them, because, they are not obliged to release something for you. I will not be going into the "they have personal lives / it is their freetime project" and stuff like that, because it has already been explained by many others.

If they want to share a status update, they will,. If they dont feel like it, they wont. Don;t like that? Too bad there is nothing to do for end users like you and me. Just to remind you, this is the way the system works for all devices. I am yet to see some project where the dev gives out regular status updates. (I have an iOS Device, A Sony PS3 and many Nokia Symbian Devices, and, in all cases, when a project is ready to be released, it is released)

So just to reiterate, you don;t have to be grateful, but, there's no reason to go out and badmouth them, simply because it is unwarranted, and, they are not obliged to release something as I said previously.
[Wildfire General] Mowg1i:
What an ungrateful arrogant post.

So because you can't get root on your device your going to bad mouth the team at unrevoked because you feel they have not done enough to keep you informed of any progress they may or may not of made with Hboot for Wildfire.

Here's a couple of ideas for you:

If your that bothered about progress why not check out there IRC channel for news

Perhaps consider investing cash into XTC

Try learning Code/programming to crack Hboot (please remember to give us all ten minute updates of how it's going)

Or even better you could quit moaning and bad mouthing unrevoked as they are under no obligation what so ever to help you with a tool for gaining root access to your Wildfire.
[Wildfire General] pl0ppy:
This thread is too dramatical :S
[Wildfire General] yuanvn:
I think the Wildfire is old. They don't do a root for this.

I think the Unrevoke now doing root with new version of HTC phone, so that they don't have time to do root with Wildfire.

That's mean, we never have a rooted Wildfire Froyo phone.:(
[Wildfire General] tehshouter:
Im 100% sure that unrevoked will give us a rooted wildfire ;)

And if you dont like waiting, than try it by yourself its not so easy as we think.
[Wildfire General] Buldog:
please do not forget, the devs of unrevoked and all others do have a real live, too. They ´ll do it for free.

if you can´t wait, just go to buy a xtc clip
[Wildfire General] tjlaoli:
good news?
[Wildfire General] djdevine2:
NO! If there is any news the whole of the HTC wildfire section of XDA will go mental!!!
[Wildfire General] yuanvn:
Of course, It is free.

Beacause it is free, so that no one to do root for Wildfire Froyo.

This will never be rooted.

Now I am selling may Wildfire, to buy new Phone.

What is good, HD2 or Xpreria X10 or Desire HD.:confused:
[Wildfire General] Ardeloth:
yuanvn i'd go for an Orange San Fransisco (ZTE Blade http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=906 ). Patch it and you get a bigger screen, a faster CPU, a GPU and 512mb of RAM. Even the Wildfire S isnt that good....
