[Q] Typhoon colour changes with 3.8.0 - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

I can't post this question in the Typhoon thread as despite using the Rom for a year I don't post much!
I've searched the thread and not found an answer....
I've been using Typhoon since 3.7.0, and recently upgraded from 3.7.6 to 3.8.0
The colour scheme seems to have changed....battery level and signal strength levels in the notification bar, and the email and messages icons on the home page were green and are now blue!
OK it's a small thing, but I wonder why this has happened, and, actually I preferred the green, so is there somthing I can change to put it back
Obviously the fact I'm asking such a minor question shows what a good Rom it is and all thanks to Tyween etc for the work.
Thanks in advance.....

I did an ROM upgrade only.....Noting the post from Walidhazem above stating it is a 7.2 Vs 7.1 thing, I wonder what caused you to maintain the Green?
I don't use an sd-ext partition....
What do you mean by "restored data"?
Thanks both.....

after you take the full backup in cwm, do a wipe data / factory reset(in cwm) then flash the new version, let it boot clean to the 'welcome to android' screen, then reboot the phone, enter cwm - backups and restore - advanced restore - select the backup folder - and you can selectively restore whichever partitions you like, in the normal case you restore the data partition, and the sd-ext partition only, meaning the system is the new rom, and the data and installed apps from the old rom get restored and all is as it was before the flash when you reboot into android, but with the new version in the /system partition.

Assuming that you just want to restore it to the old colour scheme, go to the T-Mobile theme Chooser (the icon looks like an Android with 4 colours) and change the theme back to system instead of Cyan

The default theme was changed to cyanbread in 7.2rc, so either you can delete the two lines containing cyanbread/theme/tmobile in your build.prop or just go to theme chooser and select systemUI

Q: How to flash the ROM?
A:good info here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=709220

Q:how to Change your lock screens from adb or terminal shellLock
A: there are 13 different lock screens including the HTC one

"HTC Mail Mod for EAS Admin Removal" You just go to settings -> security -> remove admin policy
Any chance someone wants to actually put this on the wiki?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Droid_Incredible
There is a ROM section in there and would be a much better location than in a forum post.
What do you guys think?

Baseband version 1.00.03.03.06
hi
I am running SkyRaider 3.0 Sense RC3 but I have been unsuccessful in updating the radio. I've tried HBOOT but it doesn't like the image, tried renaming to update.zip, tried running the zip from Recovery.
Please advise.
thanks
Jack
Hello,
I would like to know what is "HTC Mail Mod for EAS Admin Removal". Is this some kind of feature?
I would like to disable the PIN Lock on my phone that is enforced by my companies security policy. I used to use LockPicker on Android 2.1 but that no longer works. Is there another solution for Android 2.2?
Thanks.
Nevermind I found it. You should add this to the FAQ. You just go to settings -> security -> remove admin policy (forgot the actual name since after I removed it, the option is no longer there)
Im having a couple of problems
1) I cant get my Yahoo mail account to set up, I have installed the Mail Mod from ROM manager.
2) I am trying to install an application from the market and i am getting the error saying I dont have enough space to install. I really dont have many apps so i dont think thats accurate. I have cleared the market's cache, data, and restarted the application, problem still persists.
Thanks for the help

Check to see how many saved backups you have. Each backup can be upwards of 300mb's. If you have more than three that could be the problem. Happened to me once before. I got rid of a couple unnecessary backup files and freed up over half a gig of space. Apps from the market installed with no problems again afterward.

Q: How to enable Tab Lock Screen with Sound Controls?
A: You need to remove the HTC lock screen to get to the underlying stock lock screen, get into Recovery, mount system, I go into adb shell to remove
cmd prompt
Code:
c:/sdk/tools>adb shell
~# (showsup) mkdir /system/app.disabled/
~# mv /system/app HtcLockScreen.apk /system/app.disabled/

You have to let it sit for a good while... mine took like 5 minutes after changing the lock screen.
Is it normal for it to take up to 3 hours to complete? Cuz that's what keeps happening

There icons that can b changed through metamorph. I made mods to mine with colored icons like bluetooth, car mode, sms, gmail, email. Two kinds of email- basic email app icon r have one made for me for yahoo. So now when I get a email a yahoo icon pops up in my notification. Ask a themer to make you some. Themes and apps has some. I suggest using sysinterwolf cuz he is the man.

[Q] No status bar / No notification bar

edit: SOLVED - details below
Every version of Cyanogenmod I install on the nook color has no status bar. I've wiped caches when installing, and still no dice.
The device seems to be saving things somewhere, though, because when I start the new ROM, all the old apps are still loaded, and their positions on the home screen... so I assume the problem is some sort of app data that's been corrupted somehow or something, but I'm at a loss about how to proceed.
Is there some simple solution (a setting somewhere to toggle?) that will fix this, or do I need to do something more drastic?
Should I be doing a full "factory reset" and starting from scratch that way? If I do that, do I need to re-"nooter" the device before flashing Cyanogenmod again, or will the "root" status be kept if I "factory reset"?
Or is there some way just to delete all app data, reflash, and start from scratch that way?
Sorry if this has already been asked. I tried searching fairly extensively and couldn't find anything. Thanks in advance for any advice.
edit: Turns out all I needed to do was delete the /data partition in recovery and everything reset properly.
Thank you for posting your solution for anyone else with this problem in the future to see, far too often people will edit their whole post to say *solved*, and give no explanation.

I wouldn't say jerks. They just don't know any better. The jerks are the ones who answer a question with something like "Google is your FRIEND". This is fantastic I just searched Google and that's how I ended up here!
I've usually got a few projects going on at one time that requires alot of searching and I see that alot. If that's the best answer you got then don't post. In good communities someone is usually around the corner with some copy and pasted info.
I'm having the exact same problem. Where is there an option to delete the /data partition in recovery? Under "mounts and storage" I found "format /data" but I keep getting a error when I try to do so.
Thanks!
SOLUTION FOUND: I figured out that due to fact that it was a newer Nook Color, it had the different size for the data partition. I flashed the partition resize pack and reformatted, now everything works great.
Adding to the solutions!
Okay, so I don't have a clue how to delete a partition in recovery (no option for that, or silly me I couldn't find it) and even though ed209 correctly offered that the partition had to be re-sized, I was like, "great, and I have no clue how to do that either!". So in the interest of sharing how I did get to a fully operational modified Nook Color please google, "How to make a bootable CWM (ClockWorkMod) version 3.2.0.1 recovery sd card" (androidforums link). I followed the directions and was able to get the partition size matched up so that the menu/navigation bar now shows up! Hope this helps someone else runs into the same problem.

No that won't work for you. You need to tell use what system you are running. Rooted stock, CM7, CM9, CM10? And do you have the ROM on internal memory or SD. Then we can tell you how to fix it.

[Discontinued] Helly Bean Cbalt Edition V26 Test Online

Here is just some of what is changed. Mine isn't just a stock port, mine has stuff removed. dave71670's Salty Rom is in the second post.
Now without further ado, here is my V26 Test Release
Wipe Data/Factory Reset/Wipe Dalvik Cache/Flash Rom/Flash Addons/Advanced Fix Permissions In Recovery. If your power button randomly stops working from flashing my rom or anything else happens and you blame me I am going to laugh at you. If you do not know what you are doing, don't attempt to flash it. If you break it you fix it, I will help, but I am not responsible for anything.
My V26 Test Build = http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?iv6mz6cr82l663p
V26 Addons (Same As V25) = http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?ja32agzq3o82ky3
Removed Apps & Files Folder (Some of them are newer than the old folder) = http://www.mediafire.com/?c0f17oxct7dq5
I am calling it a test release at this point, since I haven't ran it more than about an hour. I haven't had any problems though. If coming from CM10 or something else you will more than likely need to flash twice, first flash will go to around 15% and flash the kernel and reboot, second flash will go all the way and say install complete.
Changelog :
Based on 09/04/2012 Helly Bean
MMS updated with pop up notifications
Added https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.helroz.GSII_Repair&hl=en to the rom since I have noticed people complaining of losing there EFS folder a lot lately. I would download this on your current rom and back it up as long as you imei is correct, just to have it for all future releases of my rom or whoevers rom you decide to go to in case you ever lose your EFS folder which has your IMEI. It is a small app, is free and works great, I tried it by backing it up on my phone and then deleting my efs folder, then restoring it later with this program after I got the generic imei error. Credits go to Helroz for the app
Old Version Still Available V25 Rom = http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?mlet0rdrlduzl8k
My V25 Addons (Same As V24) = http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?0661t2w37jevi98
Link To Folder With Removed Gapps & Files = http://www.mediafire.com/?skubg7sgqbsew[/URL]
Md5 On Rom Zip = 839AC816B9D36E229C4A9344DA54EA33
Changelog =
Compiled from latest source of CM10 which you can find the changelog at http://changelog.bbqdroid.org/#captivatemtd/cm10/next
renamed the two navbar menus
More Build.prop tweaks
Edited Build.Prop Look In About Phone
Kernel in rom is always the latest VC Kernel
Updated GPS Config
Changed Boot Animation, Wait for a few seconds on boot up if you think it froze, It did not.
Changed Modem To KC1
Changed Updater.sh to Flash Modem if you have a modem already installed or not.
I have also created what I would like to call Cbalts Launcher Program. I have 4 launchers in the removed files folder, Apex, Nova, Trebuchet, And Zeam. You can flash any of them and it will remove the default zeam, to get zeam back flash Removal Tool.zip which will remove all 4 of the launchers if you decide to install all four of them at once. Then reflash the launcher of your choice and that will be the only launcher you have. If you do not reflash a launcher after flashing Removal Tool.zip you will not have a launcher. All launchers remove zeam, but the zeam launcher, I set it up that way since zeam is the default launcher. If you want a new launcher, tell me your choice and link me to it and I will make a flashable zip for it.

Okay, since someone else already grabbed above me, I gotta say this.
This boot animation (cbalt) is beyond atrocious. The idea is not to have as much **** fly over the screen as possible. The last image looks like a 10 year old + ms paint.
Look at slim ics' animation. That one does it's job, looks good and classy.
I know I'm coming off as a troll, but it needs to be said.
I look forward to the rest of the ROM. Thanks a lot. I do really appreciate it.
I think the separate thread was a good idea.
Cool!
I may check this ROM out.
You may want to create a zip file for those who want to add back on any of the removed stuff.
I woud not need this as I use Titanium Backup.:victory:
factory reset?
is factory reset really necessary? i thought wipe data, cache partition and dalvik would be sufficient. and fix permissions too.
charging my cappy now. will report on the rom later.

Probably a wise idea since you are coming from a different JB ROM or an ICS ROM or GB.
I would imagine that subsequent flashes of this ROM would not require a factory reset or /system wipe once you are on this ROM.

now that you mentioned it, it does looks familiar 'wipe data / factory reset' in cwm. initially i thought factory reset means formatting internal storage. i don't want that to happen.

I personally recommend a wipe every update of this rom, just to help avoid issues, since dirty flashing is never ideal. Yes you can dirty flash, would I do it no, I wipe every time even if it is just a little change I did in the rom, I like to try and avoid issues as much as possible.
Full wipe it is - format /system, too?
Anyways, you need to update your sig/link:

Sounds like you've got a great rom here. The change log is GREATLY appreciated. Could you fill me in on the difference between "my v13" and devil v13 please. Do the "nightly 8/1 changes" apply to only the devil edition or your v13 as well? Thank you!

Most of the difference is the stuff that is removed from devils version in my version. There are some other differences, such as some build.prop changes, updater-script changes, gps changes and some other stuff. If you look at the first post it will show must of the stuff I removed.
PS I am working on CWM Flashable Zips to Restore All Apps I removed and then Individual Zips to restore just one app that you want or more than one. Also working on a flashable zip to restore media aka notifications, system sounds etc.

Yes they do, since his rom is my base that I improve more to my liking since I like a slimmer rom personally and dont use all the stuff I removed. He rom is an amazing rom and is perfect if you use all the stuff he includes.
quick question, if i am on Devil Edition V13 Aka 0801 Build, but want to try cbalt's V13 Release, does that require a wipe / factory reset? or could i just wipe cache and dalvik and flash?
pros - quick boot time, snappier than DerTeufel1980's V10 (rom which i was from), benchmarks show better scores than my previous rom (antutu, quadrant, linpack,nenamark,smartbench)
cons- not sure what you want to show in your bootanimation but i've seen better ones. changelog contains negativity. i don't know what happened between you and those 3 people but including rage in your rom does create some perceptions among users, at least me.
nonetheless, keep up the good work! with less anger perhaps

Was my first animation, haven't had time to create another one and improve on that one. If you don't like what I put in the changelog and don't like the rom, then don't install it. Simple as that. I make the rom primarily for me and share it to be nice.
Btw im not angry.

Running Der Teufel version and only issue I'm noticing is SDCard not being mounted after a reboot. Have had to go into Settings -> Storage -> select Mount SDCard each time. This also causes my default ringtone/notification to show as "Unknown" and has to be reset.
Anyone else having similar issues?

Yeah, I don't understand how it works but for some reason whenever I got the navigation and notification bar to disappear I just flashed the softkey mod and it appeared again . Hopefully someone more technical than me will make a use of it and design a better fix.
Big thanks for sharing this mate! Using a couple of these mods now, and that Greenify app is AWESOME. No idea how I haven't heard about it before

hi shem2409,
ok. 2 things:
- that is most probably my fault but the softkey_...._black.zip also gives you a black background for both, status and navigation bar. I could have been more descriptive in my post... sorry =)
- Ticklefish's Black status+ notification bar mod should give you in addition this:

I've also changed the background of the toggles on the notifications screen to black as well. Looks nice, huh?

but since both mods change SystemUI.apk they are going to overwrite each other. and if you flash the softkey mod, the black background of the toggles should be gone? can you confirm that? (the bars will still be black - since you flashed the softkey_black.zip)
and there could be a problem when doing mine and ticklefishs mod in the opposite order: I've put the ".odex file" into the SystemUI.apk, so it runs with odexed and deodexed roms - but it deletes the SystemUI.odex during installation (this is needed so the one from inside the apk is taken by android). Since ticklefish's mod does not have that "odex file" included (it's actually "classes.dex" when it's inside an apk), it will not work if you install his mod after the softkey mod...
so as far as I can tell from here (I haven't tried it out - just have looked at the files), step 5 is overwriting the changes made in step 4.
cheers and thanks for the video tutorial!
If you were to flash smaller soft keys, would games and apps scale correctly or would the image just be stretched? So right now if the soft keys occupy 100 pixels in height, and was changed to 50, would games use the extra pixels? Would it be stretched to fit or would it run at a higher resolution? Or would there be a dead space?

I checked in a couple of games and the bar remains smaller in the games, so I guess the game is stretched to fit the extra screen space.
Advanced reboot menu needs a deodexed rom so I wouldn't advise flashing it

Thanks for that information. I will add it to the video. I am actually on a deodexed stock rom and it worked fine for me.

I have modified the information in my post to account for what you thought me. Thank a lot for that. Tbh I always flashed one after the other and never even checked that flashing small softkeys on their own would do the job.

After TWRP backup I would install, Titanium backup, and do a backup of all the apps and settings, then install an optimised ROM, then 4 and 5 are covered in most cases.

If someone is on locked bootloader there is a limited number of ROMs available at the moment and tbh I haven't found one with smaller softkeys yet. As far as I am concerned the only one for locked bootloader available is the one in the link under my video. I could be wrong though.
Well, flash the smaller keys separately.
I have added the new MOD to add a background to the notification bar to the list.

Click to expand...

not used this rom but im guessing you would have to decompile SystemUI.apk and either make changes to the pngs (resize them although this may make the pngs too big in other layouts if they use the same ones) or make changes to the xml layout regarding this panel - eg change the dpi of the area of layout to make it bigger
you will have to play around with the pngs or the layout xml of this panel (names will vary but by opening the correct xml you will see what its about)
default setting
so recently installed this rom. And it's a pleasure. The rom looks great and works incredibly well. I started tweaking things here and there and i think i accidentally tweaked some things from the "Performance Setting". I kind of get some weird results and i just want to go back to the default setting. so can you tell me the default setting there? )) Thanks a lot. )
Do you have update for S5 reincarnation rom? Because the lockscreen and security is not working. Please Help

The double sms is due to the popup sms service... Find and Uninstall it from the system or freeze the message popup using titanium bkp.

It already happened to me before. Try a FULL WIPE and reflash the ROM.

I presume you want to format sd-ext in cwm
You need a cwm that supports this - the CWM in whitexp kernel for example does and cwm6 for cm11 does
If it shows mount sd-ext in the mounts & storage section then you can mount & format that partition
Else you could use Link2sd app to format this

Swipe to the right to bring up menu
Select clear up 2nd partition
Anything that is not currently linked with link2sd should be deleted eg if you just flashed a new rom nothing will be linked so it should remove everything

Use a kernel that has a cwm that supports ext mounting so can format it in cwm then
Can i replace system apps, i want to replace camera app of this rom with stock camera app.
