Edit: Click me.bat doesn't open menu.bat automatically, after I click 'click me.bat' I had to click 'menu.bat' to get the options to appear.

works like a charm~

good to see you're porting this over
i'll include the windows version in the original thread and have every OS in one place
all thanks for the windows version go to you

Sorry for that, I'll have a look tomorrow and see what's wrong
I'll post a new update with lots of fixes tomorrow
(Strict parents - spent so long on computer they nagged me to turn it off, I'm 16 and they still boss me around lol)
I'll make sure all menus work (including click me) and most of scripts work properly
//edit
The only reason I know of for it not working is because you have a space in your username for Windows. Fix will be up today
//edit
The reason I didn't post it in yours because its too buggy to display in your thread, I wanted to keep a high standard in your thread. Once its finished I'll post it in yours

the click-me still not working for me on windows 7 x64

To get the patch work in windows 7 all you need to do
is place the "ThemePro" folder on you desktop!!
mine wasn't working either until i did that

nope still not working

then also try to enter the
"properties" of both the '.bat' files in the directory and play with the "compatibility" options.

hmmm, I don't see why it doesn't work, I'll do some research about x64 because it works fine x32
Can you post up the path to your desktop please (if you don't want to show username, replace with ** but if there's a space in your username include it clearly)

Found a better way of calling the other files, it will work with everyone
(sorry for issues VeeDubZ)
You will be able to run Theme-Pro from anywhere you want, no need to place on Desktop
The Work Directory will still be placed to Desktop by default, I'm adding an option to let you specify the directory you wish to put it
(e.g Where would you like to place your Work Directory?: C:\Users\shoey-n\My Documents)
The update will be up today, and I hope to merge most of Theme-Pro 3.0 features by tomorrow

Hi shoey-n,
Why do you use this command line in CLICK-ME.bat :
call "%homedrive%%homepath%\Desktop\ThemePro\menu.bat"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
instead of this one :
call "menu.bat"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
?
I had the same issue than VeeDubZ with the original click-me.bat and by using this command line, it solved it.
Cheers

Thanks for the suggestion, I just noticed that when I was testing out my new way of doing it. That way will be much easier. I'm updating it with that now
New version should be up tonight
//edit
Sorry guys, I've updated the script but haven't had time to upload ( internet is really slow, so it'll take about 15 minutes )
So I'll do a major update for the release tomorrow, just for you lot

thanks for the fix, no worries about the problems with it, i started using the linux version for now, your version will just save me rebooting to use that one.
my path is the standard path that a user would use without any spaces C:\Users\vaughn\
Thanks for the progress update, looking forward to the release.
V.

Alpha 3 is out, few changes and enhancements to this version
Been tested outside of ThemePro but not inside. Hopefully new method works (hopefully uploaded right one )
Added transparent notification drawer mod (uploading for themepro 3.1 Mac/Linux in 5mins, compiling it and adding to scripts right now)
Changelog is up on first post

alpha 3 broke it all for me... none of the options work, Cmd spits out an error about "er" not being a system variable, and not being able to find the directory...

That means I made a typo somewhere, the way I done it means I only have to check 2 files so should be easy to fix, thanks for reporting the bug, fix will be up in the morning

[HOWTO] Remove Samsung Apps

Lists of apps which may be removed safely have been provided elsewhere on this forum, I have taken a list from the AngeloM thread and created a script which may be run each time a new rom is installed to remove all Samsung apps.
Pre-requisite: You need to be rooted!
1 - Install script manager which is free from the market (https://market.android.com/details?id=os.tools.scriptmanager)
2 - Copy the attached script file to your sd card. You may edit it to add/remove apps as required.
3 - Start script manager, point it to my script file and tick to box to run as root.
4 - Run
That's it.

Thanks mate!
But your script had some problems to quit running
Edit:
Found a typo: rm /system/app/SamsungWidget_. ews.apk -f
And probably a remount ro and some status-echos would be neat

My unix scripting skills are pretty poor ;-(
I've fixed the typo and re-loaded.

Well, I'm currently at work
Maybe I'll put up a better script, when I find the time this weekend
Would be easier, to make a list of the apk's and then go through every element with a for-loop.
But as this is a quite simple script, it's not that necessary to make a beauty out if it...
Ah, by the way, the script didn't finish here. ATM I don't really know why. Will go through it, when I find the time
Thanks for the nice list of removable Software

Hey guys
i'm just taking a simple adb script to do this job...
something like this works great for me!
regards
fluxx

That should do the job as well. More than one way of skinning a cat
Just makes it easier than having to do it manually (especially after loading new rom).

How will I be able to update the camera firmware once the Samsung Apps is removed?

Good point and good question...
Btw one more question,
If I'll just freeze those apps the OP listed using Titanium Backup, is that means that Titanium backup will start running in the background in order to block those apps ?
If so i'd better just remove them ?
Thx.

Script manager just get stuck.. Doesn't run the script..

[TOOL][PC/WIN][SMS]DatApp - A SMS Puller

DatApp​(looking for better names)​
This is an experimental tool to pull messages from an android device using ADB. I have tested it on an EVO 4G running an AOSP ROM. Not sure if it works on other skinned ROMs. The device must have USB Debugging enabled (to use ADB)
Version 1
Pulls SMS silently
No Window Present
Planned
Fancy Menu
Ability to pull call logs and contacts
More stuff that I don't know yet
Please post any bugs or which other devices this works on. Gracias.
Download Version 1 Here

I'd be more than happy to test once someone gives a thumbs up on if the file doesn't have a virus, malware etc
can't be too careful on the internet these days.....

Haha, I know what you mean. It happens...

You don't need a better name, you need a better description! What do you mean with "pull SMS" !? (Where does it go? Is it creating an external file? what????) What is it used for? Why use this instead of a SMS-backup app?

Good Point. I'll go into detail on what it does.
1) DatApp.exe starts adb, and pulls mmssms.db from /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/database/
2) The database full of messages is saved.
3)The program then uses SQLite3 to convert the database to a CSV in human readable format.
4) The decoded file is then saved under "decoded", with the computer name, as this started as a payload for USB flash drives.
5) The database is deleted.

I would be great if you could expand this tool to reload the SMS messages after wiping system/data or ROM update.

"SMS Backup and Restore" anyone?

Please Please Re-up this tool!! Just what i was looking for! My buddy's HD2 with android just took a dive and the digitizer doesn't work, so i need to pull the messages via adb...
Or is there just a command i can run via adb to get em??
Many thanks!

[XAP] AdBlocker For Windows Phone 8.x+

Hello everyone!
Today I release a beta build of my very first hand made app called AdBlockerWP!
***YOU NEED TO BE INTEROP-UNLOCKED AND HAVE ALL CAPABILITIES UNLOCKED AS WELL!
It is very simple, download the app from the attachments and install it using Windows Phone Power Tools or the use the deployer built into the SDK.
Then run it and then select "Update Hosts File" Then wait.
Boom it has blocked ads for you! Enjoy
There is also a feature to disable ad blocking.
Please please please let me know how this works for you and what model phone you have as I can only test on emulators and a Lumia 640, but this should work on any Lumia WP8.x Phone.
EDIT:
New Feature(s) Added:
Users can now specify their own URLS to download
Removed 2 default URLS, and changed 1 URL
Current Default Hosts URL List:
https://adaway.org/hosts.txt
https://github.com/StevenBlack/hosts (Using GitHub rawcontent servers to get the HUGE hosts file here which is updated frequently from many sources.
Change Log:
V4: Fixed userList.txt not being found when editing custom user hosts url list.
V5: Added option to edit Windows Hosts file, or just view. (Alpha feature, it is very slow on larger files)
V5.2: Fixed bug on first launch of crashing
V5.3: Default lists can be disabled by user, and better custom list parsing
Source Code: Download Here

Good job, buddy!
Probably, your app needs some UI "polishing" and nice tile but at least it's functional & working
Do you have plans to publish app sources on the github? It will be nice.

When it comes out of beta I will publish source to github and yeah the UI is, how do I say..... Lacking if you will, but it is functional which is the idea behind a beta product LOL.
So far I found some bugs of my own:
2 of the 4 hosts files fail to download from a 406 error.
&
because of the first bug, not all ads are blocked. So i noticed some, not all, ads in some web sites and apps. but some are blocked.
I am also going to add a feature where a user can add his or her own entries, as well as adding their own URL's for Hosts files so those will be added/downloaded as well.

What sources does this app use?

@sandix great work, this app even works well on W10M with interop/cap unlock.

is ok but still many ads not blocked from web pages... second and third host download fail...

I could recommend to @sandix, to get a blocking uri sources from the popular Android or desktop ad-blocking software (AdAway and/or AdBlock). Maybe it's not very ethical but these blocking lists are up to date and 24/7 available.

This application is using the default sources from adaway for android, but 2 out of the 4 source get a 406 error, ill be releasing an updated version that fixes this issue so more ads will be blocked. The next version will also allow you to add your own sources as well

Is that even a good idea?
I meant won't that risk breaking your hosts file if let's say your internet connection drops during the download?
Also a bit of a unrelated question: doesn't windows phone require a reboot after changing the hosts file just like PC windows does to actually apply the rules?
And you should add the hosts file from here too: http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.htm (note: not direct link to the hosts file, scroll down a bit) that's what I'm using on my pc and laptop in windows.

That hosts al ready in the list, and if internet is dropped during download, that hosts file won't be included, worst case you have to reupdate the hosts file, but no damage would done regardless because I have a restore option in the app and afaik I have not needed a reboot, but a reboot, if you would want to, would not damage anything either

Added Update V3, includes some bug fixes and features, update now!

With v3 this happens when I open the edit user list screen on W10M.
EDIT: Same error happens when I try to save the list and when I try to update the hosts file, can't be used on W10M anymore.

work fine, you must manually add (your) userList.txt

That is weird thanks for telling me, I didn't have that issue, but I will fix it in the next release.
If you updated from the previous version, remove the app and then reinstall it and that should fix the problem I hope for now.

Ok, will try, thank you, and no need to use file manager cause I can just enable Full FS Access and do it that way.
EDIT: Worked, thanks.
Also @sandix is there any reason you removed the ability to read the current hosts file and are you going to add it back in the next version, it was quite a good feature to have to make sure your hosts have been applied?

[script]Remove password/fingerprint lock

Hi all,
I made this small update script because sometime when you try a rom and use a backup to restore the previous one the authentification get broken, so this script will just remove all locks and allow you to start your phone without any data lost.
I'm not responsible if something is going wrong.
Flash using any twrp will probably work.

great. will try

thanks!

well we can delete gatekeeper files manually from the TWRP file manager, and everything is fine, no data lost.

Yep probably, but for most of people here it's safer to use a script than let them find the files manualy.
And maybe faster

you deserve compliment for your work , but it takes only one file to delete to remove passwords or lock. and its neither lengthy nor unsafe, i have seen your script, it deletes to many things.. which is not required i think. And your updater script has spelling mistakes too bro..

Does it also removes the mi account? Device locked because mi account think the device is stolen.

If its patternlock, then its gatekeeper.pattern.key, if its password then its gatekeeper.password.key, you can delete both.

Successful Using RX & Deletion of /data/validity/template.db
Doesn't work for me! Ran rx from recovery, wiped caches, & rebooted. Typed in backup password, unlocked (same as b4). Went to the Settings for fingerprint this time it constantly rejects any attempt saying too many incorrect pls wait. Prior it wouldn't take fingerprint or password.
Any suggestions for this?
PS: Would be nice to list what each file does /is for. I am also an advanced user...
After running This Rx use (root) X-plore/etc F. M. Then DELETE:
[*W/Rx SUCCESS*] /data/validity/template.db [*W/Rx SUCCESS*]
Reboot. Type in Previously Used BackUp Password. Go to Fingerprint Settings & setup new fingerprint & backup password!
[*MIA*] data/system/users/0/settings_fingerprint.xml [*MIA*] Could not find this file, so I assume not needed.
This was done on Stock Base Marshmallow ROM N915 (Note Edge).
BTW Thanks for RX & Could You Please add the above file to RX?
