Can't set Live Wallpapers... - XPERIA X8 General

I think I've uninstalled live wallpaper stock app, I want it back for my x8 don't want to reflash , plz someone upload. thanx in advance...

you can download modded stock rom from development section and take the livewallpaper.apk then push it to /system/app/
don't forget to reboot your phone

thanks +1 , but how to extract the apk from that rom ?

just extract the ROM and there will be 3 folders (data,META-INF,system)
browse to system > app folder, there's a bunch of apk files
just take the LiveWallpaperPickers.apk then push it to your /system/app/ folder on your device
let me know if it solved your problem

well that's what I'm asking, how to extract the rom ?

just download the ROM that you're using (ex : update-GingerDX.v007.zip)
extract update-GingerDX.v007.zip isn't that simple?
i attach the apk from GingerDX.v7, try it and report if it works

thanx, but i'm using stock rom, And the file you gave me earlier is working fine, I had to push it to system/app
and then install it..
thanx

No need to install,just push it to /system/app/ and restart
So it solved your problem? Good to know

well i pushed it to system/app and restarted but no luck, then I had to install it...

i wonder how it can work in eclair
because it was v2.3.5

can u please provide the link to official android 2.1 update 1 , untouched ?
can't find it,
found it but it was made using xrecovery...

Ah,most of eclair ROM provided in development section is xrecovery backup file
I'll attach the apk from eclair when at home
may i know what version of eclair that you're running?

i'm on latest eclair 2.1 update 1
okay is there a way to extract things from xrecovery files ?

here's the apk from 2.1.1.C

thanx but the file u gave me earlier is working well.

CUSTOM ROM (deodexed)

Hey guys,
you probably don't know me, but I have created a custom rom for our Galaxy 3 based on Froyo.
It comes with both, the TW Launcher and the stock launcher, Launcher2.
So YOU are able to choose one of them.
It has modiefied framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk too (Gingerbread look).
And last but not least, I rebuild the zImage kernel for speed and this is probably the first DEODEXED rom avaiable for Galaxy 3.
The only PROBLEM is, that my rom comes an an update.zip package which i cannot sign with the samsung key since I don't have it.
So if you guys could manage to create a custom recovery that lets us apply update.zip packages like in times of ECLAIR, we could use my rom.
So I need you guys to to this.
Then we can use my deodexed, optimized froyo rom.

If possible, could you PM the instructions on how to deodex a ROM?
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy 3 FROYO
great now we can modify the indivisual apps in the samsung...crap.......
and yes i thinkthe framework folder also needs to be deodexed...
right now we can only modify /hack the framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk as they do not have odex files with them i.e deodexed....
while others are odexed...
this is the first great step to galaxy 3 custom roms and from that i mean great roms....
Instructions
So for you guys, here is the instruction for deodexing .
First, go to youtube and follow the video instructions of nokia7vista's tutorial for creating a custom rom for Samsung Galaxy S.
(Download a base rom that you want to customize (i.e. XXJPF) and download and install magiciso to open the factoryfs.rfs from XXJPF (in magic iso, go to open and then select all files, then you can open factoryfs.rfs). When you have done this, extract the content of factoryfs.rfs to your desktop and put it into a folder called "System". Put the folder "System" into a new folder called "CFW". Now you have to download the rombasics.zip based on JPA FROYO, which are found in another post in the xda - Forum in the development section. (Sorry I'm a new user so i'm not allowed to post links. When I am, I'll do !
Then, put the content of rombasics.zip into the folder "CFW".
After that, follow nokia7vista's tutorial part 4 to install cygwin correctly and install the HTC Android kitchen.
When you followed the tutorial, you should know how to start the kitchen (open cygwin, cd to folder where you placed the kitchen and type "./menu" (without quotes ).
And in the kitchen, you must first do nr. 1 (building working folder from the folder "CFW"). Then, you can type 0 to access the advanced options and type 11 to deodex. Easily select if you only want to deodex either only /system/app or only /system/framework or both.
AFTER you have followed all these steps, you have to select 99 in the kitchen. This will set up "CFW.zip" in the /kitchen/output folder.
When this is finished, you have to extract the "CFW.zip" and copy the factoryfs.rfs to any Froyo based ROM for Galaxy 3 you like.
THEN you're done

please post your deodexed rom, atleast we can get to know if it works for g3 or not
is it working for you??
after deodexing what advantages have you taken of that???
So my deodexed base ROM so far has not booted.
Any reason why?
Custom Rom (XXJPA)
@DarkLestat :
My custom rom (deodexed) is working, yes. But I think it's way to slow to use it every day because it's based on JPA.
When you gyus want me to release a super fast and super stable deodexed rom, which I'm actually able to build, you have to share the rombasics.zip based on XXJPF.
If anyone could do that, that would be great.

I'm using Gsam101's JPA Clean ROM with the ronbasics for JPA.
is that a reason?
How exactly did you get the factoryfs.rfs from the CFW.zip? All my .zip has are the folders I zipped into it, and its supposedly the finished ROM?
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy 3 FROYO
How would i go about creating a factoryfs.rfs?
EDIT: Anyone?
CFW.zip ?!
Ehhhhm...DarkLestat... If I#m understanding right, you wanna build a custom rom with an update.zip package..
If you are doing so, let me say that it don't works since samsung has implemented a new recovery in Froyo builds which don't allows us to flash the update.zip packages anymore.
You actually have to create a flashable odin package.
(including cache.rfs, datafs.rfs, factoryfs.rfs, modem.bin and zImage)
After you have done that, repack these files to a odin .tar package with the following commands in cygwin : (after you cd'd to your rom's folder)
Code:
tar -H ustar -c cache.rfs datafs.rfs factoryfs.rfs modem.bin zImage > output.tar
@The Dark Lestat: What's the source? JPF or older?
i have deodexed the jpf system/app all contents except settings .
deodexing settings causes loopback boot and phone does not boot.....
though i am verifying but deodexing is great....
i have tried changing the icons of apps, now they work, in odexed they were'nt...
though the gallery app, music player seems to be slower
spl. gallery is a tonn times slower. dont know the reason....
boot is fast.....
lets see..

[Q] Problem with UOT Kitchen Themes :(

Hello,
I'm facing a problem where I'm unable to apply UOT themes on my Gingerbread/Sense rom . I'm currently running InsertCoin CM7/A2SD+ v02, and extracted the framework_res, as well as SystemUI from the ZIP but still I cant get it to work.
No matter what I try nothing changes. Can anyone help me?
What's going wrong exactly?
EDIT: When you've chosen the stuff you want, check the Summary area and make sure there are no red boxes indicating something is incompatible/wrong

if you cook framework and systemui - it means you changing system theme. So after flashing UOT, select "System" theme in ThemeChooser.

unzip your ROM and put
-SystemUI.apk from the app_s folder
-framework-res.apk from the framework_s folder
from the unzipped ROM
load this 2 files in "UOT File upload" up
then cooked your file and download it.
download this file h ttp://dl.dropbox.com/u/18354786/black_circle-bat_flying.zip
then unzip your kitchen file and black_circle-bat_flying.zip.
put your kitchen SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk.
copy this files in to the follow dirs:
-SystemUI.apk to the black_circle-bat_flying/app_s folder
-framework-res.apk to the black_circle-bat_flying/framework_s folder
then zip it, now you can flash this file in recovery.
the black_circle-bat_flying.zip works with InsertCoin CM7/A2SD+ v03 data++ version.
i have used the installscript from alexdiaz themediazGingerMix7.
i hope its allowed to use this script, if not ok then i delete the zip.
Sorry for my bad english
for gingerbread roms you need 3 files. the other one is com.htc.resources.apk
u need to upload the com.htc.resource file as well to make the theme work,
I am on insertcoin v0.8, everything works great, very smooth

[Q] can´t install calculator

I am trying to install stock calculator from orange froyo to CyanogenMod 7 Nightly but every time i try to install it I get:application not installed
how can i get it in the phone?
Dude you can't do it, there is no such way that you can do a normal install with a copied HTC apk from rom. As they are not intended to install like normal apk. Besides you have to copy it to system/app. And you can't do it straight. You should be rooted. Also there is a support file in the folder of original file( dnt remb its name) which is required for its working. You have to copy both of them in system/app.
Repeat the question in threads like" android app development or some thing related to apps or developments, to get a procedure based fast replay.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App
Cm7 i think comes with a calculator!!! Unpack zip on PC before install then in unzipped file goto system app and delete calculator then copy the apk your trying to install into same app folder then rezip all unzipped files making sure you don't include original zip package and make sure you have named it same as original too ending in (.zip) then flash as normal,should work if not then it must be the apk is at error.

[Q]Delete XBass, Beats Audio and Bravia Engine?

How do I delete the above mods without having to restore to an older backup or flash a new ROM?
I am well versed with the android system and if you tell me to shell rm or delete using root explorer I can... Also I figured out that a few files were replaced while flashing these mods... so any help would be appreciated....
What u can do is unzip the files and see where they are being placed and then delete from root explorer. If any files are being replaced, unzip ur flashable rom and pull the original files and then place in directories, overwriting the modified fikes

[TUTORIAL] How to Fix RTL (Arabic, Ardu, Farsi & Hebrew) Stock & Custom ROMs GT-S5830

[TUTORIAL] How to Fix RTL (Arabic, Ardu, Farsi & Hebrew) Stock & Custom ROMs GT-S5830
This Patch will only fix RTL (Right to left Languages) and connect letters So you can read correctly.
This Patch Wont Add Arabic or other language to your rom Settings.​Please make a nandroid backup of your system before attempting to apply this patch.​
Requirements:
1- Your device needs to be rooted.
2- Your Android version is 2.1 or newer
3- Your ROM needs to be deodexed.
4- Your rom is not based on MIUI.
Steps to apply the patch:
1- Download the patch arabic_script_0.907_windows.zip from Attachments and extract it to a folder on your computer.
2- Pull these 3 files from your phone /system using any explorer and place it in the subfolder "input" that you extracted in step 1
a) /system/framework/framework.jar
b) /system/lib/libandroid_runtime.so
c) /system/lib/libwebcore.so
3- Double click on commands.exe. Do not close the black cmd screens that will pop up. Once the patch is done, you should get a flashable file in subfolder "output".
4- Go into recovery mod, mount system and flash the file.
If flashing through recovery didn’t work for some reason, you’ll need to do the following manually:
Put /framework.jar in your phone at /system/framework/
Put /libandroid_runtime.so in your phone at /system/lib/
Put /libicuuc-arabic.so in your phone at /system/lib/
Put /libwebcore.so in your phone at /system/lib/
Put /lib__bcore.so in your phone at /system/lib/
5- Downlod & Extract DroidSansArabic.zip from attachments and replace DroidSansArabic.ttf with the arabic font located in /system/fonts and reboot
Sometimes permissions and xml data doesn’t get updated correctly resulting in corrupted data entries. If you receive a bunch of Force Closes after a reboot, you’ll need to Factory Reset.

Browser language is related to /libwebcore.so So try to replace this file from any other rom and run the patch again. it should be fine :fingers-crossed:
try it on lg e400 deodexed rom ... ang get flashable zip .. and replace the files .. then flash zip file ,,, get bootloops .. so many time

Replace files from the flashable.zip with the rom.zip and flash the whole rom again. this is the safest method to avoid any bootloops
I've been looking for this long time ago...
