[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DooMLoRD:
guys at the moment baseband CANNOT BE FLASHED VIA xRECOVERY... u have to use flashtool for it...

only roms/themes can be flashed via xrecovery...

also after flashing baseband u do not need to wipe anything IF you will be using the SAME rom... in case u want to use a DIFFERENT rom only then wipe data/cahe/dalvik...
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cancar96:
i am using falsh tool again but this time it stucks on PREPARING FILES FOR FLASHING i am trying to flash the latest ,any help would be nice..
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ynkamat:
How are you flashing. The baseband should have .ftf extension. Put that ftf file in the firmware folder of your flash tool and then flash and connect ur phone in flashing mode.

I'm trying to install cyanogenmod on my G Tablet, but I can't figure out how to get files onto the root of the drive, specifically the update.zip and recovery folder.

I've successfully rooted it using z4root, thinking that would give me root access to the files - but not so...

So, I'm at an impasse. I can't move files from the sdcard folder, nor the sdcard2 folder into the root folder.

How can I get the needed files there?

Thanks!
[G Tablet General] muqali:
they need to be in sdcard not root. at least it is where mine go

edit not sure with cyanogen. you may need a different file manager to place them in the root directory
[G Tablet General] pqrs:
try using ghost commander, it lets me move files around. otherwise plug it into a pc and move the files that way?
[G Tablet General] scheda:
Ghost Commander is giving me the error, "File not accessible" when trying to copy it from sdcard to / (I assume this is the same as the linux filesystem?)

Edit: I've gotten it to give me root access, I'm just having trouble getting files to transfer now. It tells me that things transfer, but I'm not seeing them in the file system. I'll keep messing with it though.
[G Tablet General] tekrhino:
You only need to put the update zip file on the main directory ( /sdcard ) not the root directory which is just ( / )

Then flash the update zip via recovery mode.

Be sure to wipe data and cache first if you are flashing over another rom, which it sounds like you are.
[G Tablet General] scheda:
I just figured that out :) And this is my very first flash, so I'm entirely inexperienced with this.

I've just done the update.zip portion, now I'm moving onto the next step as detailed here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=865245

I was originally just going to flash with ROM Manager, but it force closes when I open it now, so I'll just follow this guide.
[G Tablet General] tekrhino:
Good Deal, welcome to the MOD world!

:cool:
[Defy General] Fast-Droid:
Today i accidentally removed motoblur accounts from my rooted defy with root uninstaller pro and did not back up before uninstalling.:mad:I am no longer able to access accounts in the settings menu.Im getting a force close and do not want to factory reset my handset because im afraid i will not be able to get past the initial motoblur accounts setup.How can i reinstall this app without doing a factory reset.ihave another moto rooted phone with motoblur and was thinking sticking my sd card in it uninstalling motoblur accounts saving to sd/backup/apk..stick the sd back in the defy and try to reinstall.dont think this will work but if anyone has a solution let me know.Thanks
[Defy General] Jt612:
dont factory restore ! it only wipes user data so accounts would not be restored and as you say you will not be able to complete setup
[Defy General] Fast-Droid:
Yeah thats what i thought.My phone still works awesome but i cant factory reset.Is there a way to reinstall motobull**** version 3.6.360 back on my defy? Been looking around but found nothing yet.Well if theres no solution it gives me more reason to buy an Atrix.
[Defy General] naenee:
How would getting another phone prevent problems caused by the user?
[Defy General] Fast-Droid:
Hey Naenee getting another phone will not prevent user error.If you read the post properly it says the app was removed by accident.It had been backed up with TB before but when i went to reinstall blur accounts it was corrupt.Hey ish happens....So if you cant help or have a solution keep it moving...Anyway im OC@1200/62 using Adw launcher/honeycomb theme with tango video chat,tikl ptt,barnacle wifi tether,etc etc etc and my defy runs amazing.No fc's or reboots no problems at all.I dont use blur for anything.I know blur still lurks in the background but i have no use for it except to push my email and its still working properly.My only problem is not being able to change or manage accounts and my check for updates is no longer working..The Atrix is an amazing piece of hardware ive had my eye on for a while and want bad!!! I ask again can i reinstall blur 3.6.360 on my defy?? Somebody has to know...
[Defy General] Peglezn:
Theres always an option of reflashing the .sbf, if u cant get the backup from someone else
[Defy General] Beach_Head:
What specific APK would that be?

I can upload it for you if you want...
[Defy General] Beach_Head:
Sent you the file I believe is what you're looking for.

Let me know...

Thanks!
[Defy General] zyxwvut:
Fast-Droid... You should post progress and whether/how this problem was fixed and all steps taken! This way the whole community can learn from all of our mistakes!! That is indeed the point of these forums. The devs and senior members go out of their way to help us and then they say here I am giving you tools and ideas to help you, let me know if it works.... and then no response on your end? That makes this thread completely useless other than your personal gain... Don't take offense, it's just that these good people have helped me more than once and all they want in return is status updates: What worked and what didn't so that the whole community can learn what makes these phones "tick"
[Defy General] alfchin:
acctually,you can flash ur phone via RSD LITE with ur ROM's fully Sbf.

No need to wipe,and u'll find everything is OK
[Defy General] Fast-Droid:
Hello fello defiers, sorry for the absence but i been busy with work,wifey,kids....Anyway i got my phone back up after semi bricking it by flashing the wrong SBF to fix my accounts mess,yet the solution was rather simple........First id like to say if you received the T-MO blur-3.6.360 update like i did by OTA before i fubared my phone(The white light black screen syndrome) The only thing that worked for me after flashing almost every SBF i could possibly find was to use the T-MO signed leaked froyo 2.2.1-3.4.2.... I used RSDlite 4.9 with the latest moto drivers and it booted right up first try.All seems to be working fine but I'm not getting 3G now....However I've already found the solution for it i just haven't had the time to try it yet.....I also noticed some1 just put up a signed froyo 2.2.2 i haven't gotten around to yet that might possibly work....Anyway Id like to give a shout out to Beach-Head and all the other Doc Browns on XDA for helping me fix the major malfunction with my flux capacitor lol...(scratches head and ponders when phones will manifest worm holes).... If it werent for XDA and the info available on here my phone would still be a useless $400 waterproof brick.Thanks!!
[Kyocera Zio M6000] MagickalShadow:
OK, so...it seems no matter what launcher or theme I get for Android, I still have this dully, gray top bar with the same battery icon, then same clock and the same signal icon.

There are clock widgets, battery widgets and signal meter widgets...but what is the point of just duplicating everything that is on the dull gray bar?

So I am asking, does anyone know if there is a way to hide the top bar on Android? Any launcher, theme or anything where I can get this thing out of my sight?
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Fate43:
GDE home replacement has a full screen option on it, that hides the notification bar.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] dreamstryder:
Pretty sure adw lets you hide the top bar
[Kyocera Zio M6000] z3r0t0l0rEnCe:
I'm using Adw withe the Gingerbread theme and have mine hidden.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Sorry_8D:
GO launcher and live home both have options for hiding the notification bar.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] bri000:
Hide status bar

I like "ZEAM" . Its a very light, smooth running launcher . It ran faster/better than the stock launcher on my droid x (2.1/2.2) and actually FIXED some lag issues I had with changing screens and scrolling studder in the app drawer! I get my ZIO next week , it will be my project phone. I'm hoping ZEAM heips with the reported screen lag on it. If anyone is willing to try it please post results.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] sinisin:
Vtl launcher has the option to hide it. Or use UOT Kitchen fo change it to your liking.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] Mattix724:
That's right, just swipe up on the home screen.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] pomeroythomas:
LauncherPro also lets you hide the notification bar.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] bigchris212:
Open Zio rom for a black top bar.
[Kyocera Zio M6000] bigchris212:
Zeam launcher is super smooth, and you can hide the top bar.
[Xoom General] lastlancer:
Ok so I'm having trouble getting my xoom rooted. At this point I have unlocked the bootloader and need to flash the new img. Going through the instructions it says after opening command for the SDK tools folder to type "adb reboot bootloader" and i get the error saying no device found. No idea why its doing that, my computer can see my xoom.

I will say this, since the adb.exe was put into platform tools instead of tools I did move it over along with its dll files, not sure if that might have done it.

Any help is appreciated.
[Xoom General] lastlancer:
Ok so feel a little stupid now, got that taken care of but still cant flash the img. Just sits on "waiting for device" and neither do anything.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] TommyHD2:
Frustrated with this, ive read that i needed to format the SD card as i have Phone7 so did that but its still saying the above error message.

Could someone tell me what needs to be done to sort this.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Kailkti:
Could you clearly state your problem. Or if you think you've done so, be more clear then.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Skellyyy:
Are you formatting the SD card the right way? Using Panasonic SD Formatter 2.0. If you haven't, try that. ;)

What exactly are you formatting it for? For dual-boot of WP7 & Android? Using an Ext3/4 partition for Android or just want your full storage back on your SD card?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] TommyHD2:
I have formatted the SD card with the Panasonic software. All i want to run is a nand android but as soon as i install a few apps it tells me that the storage space is low. I have re-loaded the Abdroid nand rom after a format of the sd card and still have the same problem.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] TommyHD2:
Can anyone help ?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Skellyyy:
You have a Leo512 HD2 yeah? (One without T-mobile branding on the top)

If that's the case, you need a ROM (most do) which supports either Apps2SD or Data2SD. You need to create a Ext3/4 partition for it to work.

Use the search bar and you'll find out how to partition your SD card if you don't already know. :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] TommyHD2:
Well im thick i searched partition n got no answers
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Skellyyy:
Search for something like "how to make an ext3 partition using minitool". Can't get a link atm as I'm on my phone.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hun_gery:
minitool partition wizard will be good for you i think
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
Hey,

This recent leak of "gingerbread" from samsung does not have animation enabled by default. The code is there, they've just disabled it from the xml.

So here are the steps :

For developers :

1. Get apk manager

2. Put framework-res.apk in "modding" folder

3. Run apk manager, decompile with dependancy (option 10)

4. Drag twframework-res.apk into the script.

5. Go into projects\framework-res\res\values\bool.xml

6. Make config_animateScreenLights to false

7. Go back to script and select compile.

8. Say y

9. Say y

10. Delete resources.arsc from keep folder

11. Enter in script

12. U'll find unsignedframework-res.apk in "modding" folder

For users :

adb push unsignedframework-res.apk /data/local/tmp/framework-res.apk
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/stl9 /system
stop
rm /system/framework/framework-res.apk
cp /data/local/tmp/framework-res.apk /system/framework/
rm /data/local/tmp/framework-res.apk
reboot

Make sure settings -> display -> animation isnt set to none.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] g00ndu:
Hi Daneshm90,

Did you manage to decompile Settings.apk for GB? Funny thing now is that there is an additional apk in the /userprofile/apktool/ folder. There are now 3 apks (resoures.arsc):

1.apk

2.apk

127.apk

This is something new. Is it now the apks are tri-dependency instead of co-dependency for GB Galaxy s?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
Hmm havent tried that. Will try and let you know.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] g00ndu:
Thanks, and waiting for your good news. :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] adhikarb:
Hey thnks for the screen off animation..can u also check whether the glow in end of list is presebt in the code but has been disabled....coz it works in some apps like youtube where u scroll sideways thanks! :-)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] DeHD:
Can I ask something?

is this way only for I9000?

I'm using Korean GalaxyS(SHW-M110S, it's shape is same with I9000).

When I pull this framework-res.apk into my SGS, SGS boots infinitely(I don't know this term in English.. sorry)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] beaminwoo:
galaxyS

I am Korea Galaxy S [M110S] user is using. I've tried to apply the source code does not work on framework-res.apk bool.xml config_animateScreenLights to false in a note that if you're saying?:cool:
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
Nope these steps are standard. So you can pull your framework-res and undergo these exact modifications
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
For me i need twframework-res and framework-res in order to decompile settings.apk w/o error.

So i get 1.apk and 2.apk
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] kenkiller:
You guys are using gingerbread leaked rom? Iirc it should be a prerequisite for this mod.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Perka:
This will come in handy.

Thx.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Mothatt:
Worked on JVK, thanks for this

EDIT: Added the resulting framework-res.apk

EDIT2: Complied wrong, all pngs are duplicated, taking up a lot of space. Please do not use this one. Use either danesh's or the one in perka's stash should be updated soon

EDIT3: The fixed framework-res.apk is in perka's stash here http://goo.gl/Lf7LF
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Darkyy:
Hi mothatt :D

See you in IRC :-)

v10.0 beta 4 / RC1
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] oaiebmxxx69:
when i try installing it on my phone it says application not installed. what to do?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
Its a framework installation.

Just follow the adb instructions in OP. This is a framework apk, not a user apk.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] oaiebmxxx69:
sorry mate but didn't understand a word...
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
Do u have adb setup ?

If not then read up on how to set it up and then execute the "user" commands i have in the main post.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] oaiebmxxx69:
i got apk manager and i select option #10 but it just disappears and it also says i don't have java but i do...please help me dude get this thing right
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
U can use ones i posted. Click my.profile n search my posts. I posted it in jvk thread
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Brotuck:
I tent to get a lot of bootloops when i try to push the unsigned framework that i compiled. Adding the resources.asc manually (first take it out the framework and manually add it again with no compression) resolved that.

Is that extra step not nessecary anymore ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] oaiebmxxx69:
ok so i got some of it sorted but i still can't drag the apk in the script...it doesn't allow me to do that
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
Hmm thts wierd. The "keep" method does exactly that. Whtever u don't delete, it copies over from original apk. Are u using the keep method ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
What version of apk manager u using ? Try 4.8
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Darkyy:
As the dev of apk manager, which version do you recommend?

I use 4.9 (windows) and mostly have problems getting running framework on gingerbread.

Thanks for all your work, Daneshm90.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Brotuck:
Normally i would create a cwm package (see my signature for my theme) and use a script to copy over the existing apk file(s)

When i use the unsigned version without my resources.asc method it bootloops. Actually never used a direct push with adb ever.

There is a post on XDA somewhere that describes this method, but are unable to find it now.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
I'd recommend the beta for 4.9/5. Only thing is apktool/aapt issues with framework.

Hence id say use those, just replace apktool/aapt with that of 4.8. Which was apktool 1.3.1 i believe.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
when you say "my resources.arsc"....wht r u referring to ?

Sorry if i sound lost lol....

Ive followed the exact instructions posted in OP and haven't had problems for jv1/jvk.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Brotuck:
When i use the compile method you will get a unsignedframework.apk

I open that up with 7zip and move resources.asc out of the zipfile

Then i add it again with the store option of 7zip to the zipfile.

Understand what i mean ?

Just wanted to know if i can skip this step now, or must i keep doing that ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
When you compile what do you answer to the 2 questions it asks ?

Do u say yes to system and keep method ?

If so then no,

If u say no, in that case now the manifest is one that apktool compiled. It's hash will most likely be different in which case a push while core is not running is required. Aka

adb shell stop

push

adb shell start

or while in recovery.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Brotuck:
Most of the time i changed something in a xml file.

So i say yes to system apk

Then yes to get the keep folder

Then i delete the resources.asc

Back to script and press yes

then i get the unsigned frameworkfile

Or is it better to just say no to system apk ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
Well depending on xml, make sure u delete the xml itself as well. Only for eg in values folder, u don't need to but like in layout folder, if u modify something, make sure u delete it from keep folder as well.

I always recommend the keep method, as its the safest bet
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Brotuck:
maybe offtopic, but after replacing the framework-res.apk file the phone defaults back to the default wallpaper and all my emailsettings are gone.

Had this twice now ! :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
Yea i get tht too, i think when bootloops occur, tht is when it happens. If a successful framework replacement occured, it doesnt.

For me even market/gmail gets resetted, and if u check log, all of ur dalvik-cache will get recreated too.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Brotuck:
I tried to use rootexplorer to copy the file, but got a out of diskspace. So i immidietly used shutdown. And rebooted to cwm to install my backup of the frameworkfile. Pfew happy i made that one, otherwise i need to reflash everything :D

Gmail and Exchange was gone indeed :p

Not a real problem, but never happened to me before on 2.2.1
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
Yea thts why i dont suggest root explorer for framework replacement.

Because android's core is dependant on it, and apps are dependant on the core, u cannot replace w/o taking a risk. Adb is always the safest route :)

Im thinkin of writin a script tht enables this, not sure though cuz its so easy to do manually :S
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Dr.laser:
thanks so much for this

any chance for scrolling glow effect?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] phranzee:
Thanks for the info. Would it be possible to implement a power-on crt animation?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
Its not impossible, but it is infeasible.

I suppose ur referring to that as in cm7. They basically reversed the animation, but a lot of opengl/java code is what produced it.

Considering we deal with closed source, kinda hard.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Dravenlee:
Would the ADB commands need to be reworded to read:

adb push framework-res.apk /data/local/tmp/framework-res.apk

adb shell

su

mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/stl9 /system

stop

rm /system/framework/framework-res.apk

cp /data/local/tmp/framework-res.apk /system/framework/

rm /data/local/tmp/framework-res.apk

reboot

in order to push the file that Mothatt provided?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Mothatt:
Yes :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Dravenlee:
Thank you for the quick response. I had already mucked this up once tonight and was getting a little nervous! :eek:
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Mothatt:
No worries. For the

adb push framework-res.apk /data/local/tmp/framework-res.apk

bit, just drag and drop the framework-res.apk file into cmd instead of typing framework-res.apk
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Dravenlee:
I just can't seem to get this right. When entering ADB commands, do you copy and paste the entire string of commands into CMD, or are they entered in one at a time? I have tried both ways, and it has bricked my phone three times thus far. I can get back up and running with a little more than extreme aggravation, but thus far, I have been able to pull the .apk off, make the unsigned one, and get to the point of pushing it back onto the phone, but it locks it up every time and I have to wipe and SBF back to 2.340 ---> rooted gingerbread.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Dravenlee:
Whoops. I spoke too soon. I hit enter in ADB, and the reboot command came up. Phone rebooted, and when I hit the lock button, it closes like an old TV would! Thanks for all of the help with this...... endeavour.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] chaosxq:
I had a look into it, after seeing the problems that some of you are having seems a bit fiddly for me personally. Nevermind.

It's a shame cos I absolutely LOVE that animation. Would be cool if someone could just come up with a normal APK that does it automatically.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] almi88:
Can this be adapted to work for screen on to? :D Wold be nice, like on CM7
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] c0llal0:
Which way u able to use two dependee files? Drag an Drop wont work right?

Alright found it ... ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Daneshm90:
Checkout my response to this in previous page.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Joshuax8:
yes Yes YES!! :p I'm not the only one who wants it :D

$omator said he would look at it :)
