I tried to disable family square and that video page because i don use it and hate the icons i never use. Like your clean look but it doesn work for my view. After a reboot the icons are stil there.
How did you do that?

did you use Debloater or that apps Package Disabler he post on

Package Disabler didn't work for me.
Debloater hides apps fine though.

I just bought package disabler from ospolice aiming to remove that in my case unused video-startscreen.
So far i couldnt remove it but it wont start any app when i click on it leaving me not too happy as i wanted to get rid of that waste of screen-estate.
Any hints on how i could do that with package disabler?
Cheers, red
Ps: Oh, and the small family sqaure icon is also still present on the lower left although it doesnt seem to do anything any more...

Whoopsie, guess I now semi-bricked my t670 through package disabler from ospolice ;(
After disabling all bloat-packages (which did not remove the video-home-screen as mentioned above) I re-enabled some and possibly also disabled a package so that my galaxy view now won't launch the android UI but hangs after the Samsung animation repeatedly showing a warning message 'GUI stopped' (translated meaning).
I can hit 'OK' how often I want, the andoid-UI won't show; luckily, I can still enter ODIN-Flash-Mode by holding Vol-Up and Vol-Down while powering the device on.
The big question for me now is: where do I get the original samsung ROM to re-flash and hopefully unbrick my galaxy view?
EDIT: I've found my countries version on the following sites:
- http://www.mrcrab.net (links to rapidgator)
- https://www.samdownloads.de (requires registration)
- http://www.sammobile.com (requires registration, slow free download (15kbps))
- https://samsung-firmware.org (requires registration)
i wonder which of those is trustworthy? any experiences with any of the mentioned sites?
speedwise: downloads from rapidgator and samdowloads load rather fast in my case (>200kbps), samsung-firmware is capped at 75kbps.
any ideas on this are very welcome!
EDIT2: downloaded ROMs from mrcrab.net, samdownloads.de and samsung-firmware.org, they all yield the same T670UEU1AOJC_T670OXX1AOJC_HOME.tar.md5 with the same md5-hash e3a20cc856904f97f107e5136eed22cf so I guess/hope that they represent the original ROM...
EDIT3: re-flashing via ODIN succeeded but UI did still not come up after a restart so i also wiped data and performed a factory reset. afterwards UI came back and the t670 was of course factory reset. at least my tablet is not semi-bricked any more.
so... i still have to find a way to get rid of that stupid video-home-screen. if anyone succeded please outline what steps were performed.
cheers, red

[ROM] VanillaDroid v1.0

VanillaDroid v1.0
Based on my eris21official-root ROM.
What's new?
- Sense removed (almost, had to keep a few things such as HtcContacts for FB syncing to work)
- Android lockscreen
- Vanilla keyboard
- DialerOne (removed HTC dialer)
- Nexus Music app replaced HTC music
- Added PDFViewer (since I removed it from my first rom)
- Wireless tethering installed stock
- Live Wallpapers
- Custom bootscreen
- Better Alarm (Nexus Alarm app port, since HTC alarm won't work without the HTC lockscreen)
- JIT dalvik executables (boosts performance, average 3.5Mflops vs 2.5Mflops without)
- OTA updates disabled
- Other misc minor things
I'm not guaranteeing EVERYTHING works 100% without Sense, but I haven't run into any problems myself. You'll notice there's almost 15MB free on your system partition as opposed to maybe 1 or 2MB free with most roms.

GrdLock's ROMs Download Page (VanillaDroidv1.zip)
(Click a banner on the download page before you download to support me!)
Installation:
- Place file on sdcard
- Reboot into recovery
- Do Nand backup (just incase!)
- Wipe data/dalvik
- Flash from zip
Removing JIT executables:
If you experience stability issues that get in the way of doing something, you can remove the JIT executables using JIT-remove.zip that is on my website. Simply flash it from the recovery partition without wiping anything.
EDIT: Just an FYI, the wallpaper in the screenshots isn't a live wallpaper. I included one live wallpaper that is one of my fav's that you can enable, and more that work can be found in the market.
EDIT2: I ditched my old host and am hosting the website on a new server. Those of you who have experienced download troubles from it shouldn't have to worry anymore.
Very nice, good job!
Sweetness. Am testing it as we speak and so far its hot. Thank GrdLock!
edit: This may have already been done, But could a patch be written to
replace the HTC music app with the nexus one app on other Roms?
Looks very nice GrdLock, I'm glad to see ROM's starting to pop up. Now The actual fun may commence with our Eris'!
Anyway we could get you to port this over to the cdma hero?
Wow, can't wait to flash it. Thx for all the hard work.
UUGGHH!!!!!!
I have the 2.1 leak and this is seriously making me want to use the "smash eris with a rock" method of getting root!
Thank you and keep up the good work!
Any chance we can get a mirror on multiupload?
I'm having trouble getting the zip from your server it gets to about 40-60 MB then I'm getting size mismatch errors in "Download Them All!". Regular downloading just stops at about the same point as well. I've been trying since there was only 1 download shown on your site now there's about 94. :\
Downlad site
My downloads never finish from your download site. Internet Explorer 8 doesn't even start, it just opens the download screen and then finishes right away, and in Firefox, it gets about 70-80% and then finishes incomplete? Any ideas?

My host just sent me an email saying the issue has been resolved.
Try the download again and let me know if you're still having the problem. If so, send me a PM with your IP so I can give it to my host to point it out.
Problem..
I am also having problems with my downloads not finishing. my ip is :24.179.229.209 . I also tried several times downloading from my main pc and my phone, which I dont have the ips for, with the same result. Maybe try uploading to another site like rapidshare or something? Keep us posted, want this cool rom bad.
Lukifer
Having the same problems as others. I can only download 60-70mb before it just stops. I've tried firefox and ie. No luck.
Tried installing it but having a problem. It can't open the package (bad) and Installation aborted. Looking forward for this ROM
i just downloaded it and had no troubles ,, flashing now just wanted to say thanx for ur hard work
Also, those who are having download problems... are you on slow connections?
I usually get 1-1.5 MB down on a good torrent. Trying DL again. I on the other hand have not had this problem before when downloading from your site.
is there a problem with the market? it wont download anything ,, just sits at starting download ,,doesnt do anything else? she i just try and reflash or is this something you know about ?i know it says not everything works but i was just lettin you if if you didnt already
Firefox works
I tried again with Firefox and it worked fine.
Is anyone else still having download troubles? If so I think I'm just gonna switch to a new host.

How many levels of compatibility does this have? Sorry, couldn't resist. Specs sound good, more choices are always great! Rock on!
links are up
super fast, however: i see that there's a cifs.ko in system/lib/modules that doesn't seem to like cifsmanager. am i missing something here or was cifs support nit included in this build?

Nice
First of all, thanks to all the devs that put time and knowlegde into these great roms. This is a speedy rom, but miren browser kept freezing my tablet and forced me to reboot. The final time it froze, the tablet is completely unresoponsive... just going to let it die and play around with this rom a little more. I definitely have a problem with miren though.
After waiting 5 minutes, give or take, my tablet did shutdown. Just restarted and since I installed this rom, my hard home button does not function. The other buttons work great, but the home button does not. All the soft keys work. Tried the titanium backup market fix to no avail. Never got market to give me an error. Love the rom... Keep up the great work
Content on sdcard - Garbage after reboot
Not sure if this is just me or something in the ROM. After a reboot, it took more than 5 minutes to finishing scanning user internal storage. The notification indicated "Checking Sdcard for Errors". After this finished, all of my data is just garbage. I have switched between CM7 and VTb5.1 without problems.

Thanks. For the market, go to Settings>Appilcations>System Appilcations and Clear the Cache for the Market and Force Close it. Then go down to Google Services Framework and do the same. Then go to the market and you should get the force close. Reboot and you'll be up and running.
for the market to work correctly the last part about the google framework is incorrect. instead of clear cache you need to clear data instead. then force close, open market, receive error, and reboot.
should be good to go then...

Had to run the market hack twice, but it finally worked... Thanks all! This rom is quite responsive... Coming from vegan 5.1, I am enjoying the web browisng better as far as finger scrolling and screen responsiveness... have not attempted to use miren browser again, but will update as soon as I do.... Excellent rom
I'm taking it for a spin and so far so good.
Got Market to work with your fix... Thanks!
I usually run TnTlite 4.1 but decided to give this a try.
nvflash, wipe everything and start from scratch as usual.
clockworkmod .8
installed this rom without any problem
titanium backup opens, gets superuser permission as usual, then I am greeted with the following message:
BusyBox works but the "su" command does not elevate to root: "whoami" reports "whoami: applet not found" instead of root/uid0. I think your "Superuser Whitelist" system app does not work. Please check with your ROM provider.
I tried reinstalling this rom but get the same message, any ideas?
edit: also the search and home buttons do not work anymore
I had this problem. It asked if I wanted to fix it. I did and then everything worked fine. See if that works for you. Anyone have a fix for the hard home button yet?

[Q] "Hello world, PM EasyView!"? Possible malware caught on screenshot?

I recently took a screenshot that revealed another background window behind a warning message window that says "Hello world, PM EasyView!"
Is this some kind of malware? I tried scanning my phone with Lookout Security and it did not detect anything suspicious.
It all began when all of a sudden my stock 2.2.2 Defy's Task Manager kept showing popup messages telling me that my Hotmail app is running for too long and is consuming memory. This never happened before, ie. Task Manager app showing warning messages about apps running for too long. I suspect a malware infestation. Please advise.

If you are scared that you are infected by malware the only "safe" thing to do is a full data wipe.
You dont have clockworkmod installed do you? Would be helpfull to have a full copy of the system to analyze it. I think clockworkmod would be a perfekt method to get a copy of the whole system.
sorry i don't know how to solve this. maybe it's time for you to change to some other ROMs...

Well not exactly scared but I was just wondering about the origin of that "Hello world" message. "PMEasyView"? I wasn't able to find any app or developer by that name among the apps installed on my phone. Just was wondering if anyone here knew thats all. I rooted my phone using SuperOneClick, does it install Clockworkmod too? Or do I have to do it separately?

I did install CM 7.1(2.3.7) but I didn't quite like it..I mean don't get me wrong..CM 7.1 is awesome but the ADW launcher kept crashing on me, something was eating up the battery way to fast and this is weird but I found that the sound quality(headphone and speaker) had actually deteriorated..maybe I didn't get some settings right but anyways I decided to roll back to the Motorola stock 2.2.2 froyo JRDNEM_U3_3.4.3-36-1.7 and wait until CM9 was out.
Thanks for the replies guys..really appreciate you taking the time.

If adw doesn't work for you, you can download another one from the market. I use go launcher and it works without any problems and damn fast. You should give it a try.

Well it's typical behavior of mallware - I dont have information, that stock task manager will inform you, that some process is running more than x minutes ... try wipe to factory settings and you'll be sure.
Rooting doesn't install Clockworkmod. You only get superuser after rooting. Install 2nd-init and you get Clockworkmod.
You should start using Droidwall and AVG antivirus pro. Try limit the data freedom running in the background.
Thanks for the replies guys. I think I'll wait for CM9. I do have Droidwall installed and I've scanned my phone thoroughly with Lookout Security but nothing was detected. Is it possible that the firmware posted here, the 2.2.2 India one is somehow infected?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1093352
I took another screenshot of the supposed malware today, this time without the task manager message. I was able to dismiss the task manager message by pressing the search key somehow.
I have seen exactly that same message today. I thought I have been fairly careful about Malware. However, there was an update that was installed from marketplace today.
I wonder if it is possible to look at an update history.

Is the message window in your case appearing under the exact same circumstances as mine? Which ROM are you using? And also if its possible could you do an inventory of the all the apps installed on your phone, then perhaps we can pinpoint the source. Thanks for the reply.

[INFO] Kindle Fire 6.2 Software Update (29Nov11)

So, it appears my Kindle Fire just updated itself on it's own! No warning, it just did it! I caught it as the progress bar was about 50% across the screen.
Confirmed 6.2 Software Update via Amazon Support Site
Here is what I know:
1. It removes root functionality, including the SuperUser.apk
2. It removes the Google Market app (some people say theirs is still working after update, so it could be how it was added/installed) and some of the other Google sync apk's that reside in /system/app (probably because that whole directory gets overwritten).
3. It overwrites the framework-res.apk file, so any customizations that were made to it (battery charge icon, custom wallpaper etc.), will be wiped out.
4. If you removed built-in apps like Facebook and IMDB before the update, they will have re-appeared again.
With some testing from Veritass (someone brave enough to try re-rooting again after the update), it is now pretty much back to normal. The steps I took to get there were:
1. Re-root using the standard SuperOneClick method we are all used to
2. Re-added the following apks in /system/app and applied the correct permissions:
- Vending.apk
- GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter.apk
- GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk
Everything else was still working BEFORE I re-rooted, as the GoogleServicesFramework.apk remains intact and running. This includes, but is not limited to Gmail, Maps, Calendar, YouTube, Translate, Finance.
So, all is well again, and it didn't really mess up too much (that I can see). A minor inconvenience for no particular gain as far as I can see.
NOTE:
1. Amazon Video still doesn't work when rooted
2. The stock Carousel app still won't allow you to remove apps (not that I care about that myself, but you'd figure that a fix was imminent as this was a major gripe for a lot of users!)
3. Auto brightness is still not enabled

same here. without any question it runs the update.
I just went and checked mine, didn't update... still 6.1.
6.1 here as well; although, I will not be surprised if there are a lot of updates over the next couple months. It's interesting it auto updates because of the rooting implications, though.
I left mine alone for about 10 minutes after i checked earlier for the update. Now its been auto-updated. I lost root access and i keep getting android market has quit errors. Great.
Can i just reroot? or what now?

6.2 is coming, it's confirmed on their website (I updated my OP). But, yes it's worrying to those who have rooted (especially as it breaks it). I can't see any particular reason for the update either. The much touted Carosel fix (i.e being able to delete items from it) is not present.
I'll do some more digging....
As far as i can tell the updated did nothing except kill the root...

If you are brave! Personally, I would wait for some of the more experienced devs to give it the once over first.
idk if mine updated yet but if it did ill try SOC(super1click) to re root it when i get home (in about 30 min) Idc if i ruin my fire i payed 15$ for it

Thanks for being the guinea pig! Let us know how it goes. I'm not quite as brave, although if someone else confirms it works, I'll be the first one to do it afterwards!
Same here, locked the screen and then noticed the progress bar appear after a few moments. That's frustrating to say the least!
im on my way home right now. Will Post when Im done testing SUPER1CLICK
I haven't tried to reroot, but I have checked, all my extra apps and the Android Market Place are working fine. I actually had root switched off so I could use the Amazon Video service so it's not a big loss for me. Hopefully it still works for anyone rooting for the first time.
I wonder if anyone had OTA rootkeeper on then updated and could reroot.
Mine is still 6.1 however.
update is installing will attempt root.
From what I'm seeing, it pretty much did a rip and replace of /system/app (and probably a ton of other stuff). So, all the customization and Google apps that were installed in /system/app are now gone (this includes the market).
I'm hoping that it will all be replaceable!
Someone may want to figure out how to block updates as the Fire is set to automatically download an OTA update and apply it if the device goes to sleep.
this just irks me....
Scared to connect mine to wifi now! I just did a temp unroot, but if the update is stripping Google apps, then maybe I need an backup of them too.
Now would be a great time to get a working recovery with backup capability ..
sent from phone, sorry for typos.
rooted with S1C it worked for me. No problems i tested root explorer super user and a screen shot app all of them got Root access. mounted root as rw. must reboot after root. for access to SD card. Installed Market no problem I say its a GO!
Installed all Google apps no problem No force closes no nothing

Just updated to OOS 9.0.3 I need help now...

As the title says, I just updated to OOS 9.0.3 and it's so different from the old one i'm really scared to try anything and risk to brick the phone...
I have several problems with the phone (nothing too scary thankfully) and I was thinking some of you could help here.
1) Nova Launcher isn't working properly. When I try to see the apps menu (where all the apps icons are displayed) it just doesn't show up, instead i just see the background and the apps can be seen just a bit in the upper part.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
However, I can touch the screen and the apps open where the icons should be... I tried to update nova, but the apk gives me the "app not installed" error and I'm not sure why.
2) Not rooted. I want to root the phone. I had it rooted before the update, but considering the last time i tried to root the phone without looking exactly what to do all my memory got wiped, I need to know exactly how to install Magisk and TWRP without bricking the phone or deleting anything... I have a method already that works, but I'm not sure with this now.
3) Is it possible to change the "recent app" orientation to vertical instead of horizontal? Also, is there an easier way to lock and unlock a recent app?
4) Is there a way to link Do Not Disturb to the slider?
5) Xposed is not installed. To be honest I forgot how to install that one, has it changed with this new OS update?
I might have more questions, but that's all for now, I updated like an hour ago, so I haven't been able to try it out more
thank you
Alright, I can try to help with some of your issues, but not all.
Don't worry about the new stuff, you'll get used to it quickly. Some things are still a bit "under development", but mostly is very usable. You'll not break anything and as long as you can boot into fastboot, your phone will be alright.
I cannot help with Nova launcher, I'm not using it.
If you have your bootloader unlocked, then just flash the newest Magisk zip, and you're good to go. Just to be safe, download the MagiskManager app and also the uninstaller zip, so if you end up with a bootloop, you can uninstall it.
I don't think that you can change the recenets, but I might be wrong. If you click the 3 dots in the top right corner of the app, you can lock / unlock it.
I was wondering about the same. I tried to link the DND to the slider with Tasker, without luck so far.
To my knowledge, there is no stable version of Xposed for Pie just yet. There's a beta or alpha build which is somewhat working though.
