Then its probably cuz I'm on my phone its not working??
But like when I make whatever I want, let's say a battery icon, and I go to summary and press submit to kitchen does it need to load a new page or what? Do I get some kind of notification or way to know that It was Successfully submited? And how do I know what file is mine when I pick it up lol? Where is the name of myy file?
Whenever I go to pickup it says my cooked files 0?? This means its not working right lol?

That and upload system files needs to be checked. Then the boxes will appear for the 3 files it needs you to upload from your ROM.

ya i know about the 3 files
so i just made something and submitted it and now waiting to pick up
it still says cooked files 0 for some reason.. shouldnt that b a 1 now? it gave me my file name and gave me the link to the pickup page so im guessing it worked but at the pickup page it still says "Your recently cooked files (0)"
anyway.. i just wanted to ask about the status bar. Does it work for ours with our widgets? i dont see anywhere over there that lets me edit the widgets for a galaxy phone so does that mean my status bar wont have the widgets in it?

ok so i just figured out how it works completely
my only problem is idk y but i got an error lol it is a veryyy long shtf error that i dont understand lol but what did i doo wronggggg

Yeah I got the sh&tF*ck error with CM7 Crystal theme. No one tried to help from their thread. They may have gotten corrupted in the upload process. Pull the clean ones straight out of the ROM's zip file.

Click the link in my sig for odexed theme guide. Works for deodexed too, just substitute the right files instead of the ones I give.

Okay ill try again once I get on a computer again lol
I did get something to work tho I used clean gb el30's files and put some stuff on it aand it worked like blue overscroll glow and a different font and even boot ani. So I guess ill play with it a little more some other time
I did also try to do one thing. I tried to change some app icons
I went into the email app and looked in res/drawable hdmi (or whatever it is) and replaced the png called "icon" (which had a pic of the email icon) with my own which I renamed to "icon" but when I flashed it it didn't change not sure why tho.

[Q] Loss of service sound

I honestly thought that I would find an answer for this but apparently I truly am "special" or weird in this one. I am brand new to the world of rooting and roms and currently have the latest version of Cleangb running on my epic. Fantastic rom and a giant thanks to any and all involved. One thing that has always driven me crazy about the epic is whenever you lose your signal or regain your signal there is an audible sound. I am sure getting rid of it is as easy as just deleting the audio file for it but I have done some searching through the root directory and cannot find the audio file for it. Does anyone know the location of this file? Also is it safe to delete or does one need to replace it with a blank audio file?

I can tell you that the tone is not present on cm7 & 9. But I am have never been able to find where its stored.

/system/media/audio/ui the file should be in here. i am on cm9 so i cant tell you the exact name of file. i dont like sounds other than ringtone, notification and alarm so i delete the entire ui folder and all unused ringtones etc.

I took a look at the CleanGB zip and searched the ui folder and found no sounds there...And an extensive Google search netted the same results. Seems the question has been asked a bunch of times across multiple forums and devices, but no has responded with a clear answer. Maybe one of our devs out here can find the solution. Although I am really starting to think it is possibly built into the ROM framework, instead of just a notification sound...

It has been attempted by our best devs. It is cooked into the TW ROM to where it has never been found.

I will try just moving the entire ui folder out and see if that does anything and report back. If that doesn't work then yeah hopefully one of the devs can clarify if it is built into the rom. Thanks for the posts everyone.

And then throw on an AOSP ROM like CM7 and problem solved.

I would like to try CM7 at some point but I am a little apprehensive about it at the moment. What led me to root and put a new rom on was how disgusted I was with the constant freezing of stock. CleanGB appeared to look the most stable of any out there. Since I use easytether a lot I liked that the mobile hotspot was also unlocked. Correct me if I am wrong but CM7 does have some tethering issues does it not? It just seemed like there were a few more issues associated with it than CleanGB at this point. I am open to convincing though!

Somehow I missed your reply. That clear it up quite a bit though. My only question though is CleanGB is based of of GB and not TW so does that mean he just cooked it into the GB rom as well?

CleanGB is based off TW stock. It's not AOSP Gingerbread, it just has the TW apps removed.

[Q] Anyone able to change bootanimation in XPLOD mini?

Hello, I have been able to change on every other ROM i have used, but unable to here. Tried pushing using adb, tried using root explorer, and as of just now, I have reloaded the rom with the new bootanimation in it. Sad to say, I looked at the one that was preloaded in the rom, and that isnt even the bootanimation that shows. Ughhh, just getting frustrated, hope someone else knows. And yes, I even tried renaming it sanim.zip.

Boot animations are handled differently on ICS. Instead of bootanimation.zip it uses another format (I tried to look it up but I'm currently running AOKP which uses another format). I myself haven't seen any way to change it yet.
Sorry!

Yeah, I figured that much out. I was hoping I was wrong in my searches, but handled by a .qmg file. I just don't know how to edit to point in the right direction or even know how to read one yet. I was hoping someone out there could point me in the right direction. I have found a forum which explains how it is handled, just doesnt tell me how to read/edit the file. Still searching......
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium

Okay, so an update is required here. Aftery research, all things point to samsung changing to bootani.qmg during froyo rollout. I can find several other threads with .qmg files in them for boot, but nothing with custom boots due to the .qmg software being too mich $$$$. Will keep this ipdated as much as I can. Seems that there is a hex editor that can read them??? But I am at work, so cant try until tonight.
EDIT: This software appears to be unobtainable. You can look at the .qmg file via hex editor, but after reading all day long, these types of files are a waste of time to try and change, and have been a dead topic here on xda for quite some time. It boils down to the kernel whether it will support a different boot animation or not. So.... Now you know how much a dev has to work in order to make us all happy, because believe me, kernels are not easy, nor creating a custom rom in order to match and flow smoothly with it.
MOD: Close this thread if deemed necessary, was just hoping for a good answer, finally found it myself...

Phone and Contacts apk

Can someone take both Phone.apk and Contacts.apk and (if wouldnt mind MMs.apk) and get them to work with the DeOdexed FF18 ROM for my Epic 4gTouch? I dont really care for the TwICS ones that come stock and would like them replaced with these, but I'm having trouble. I dont really have the "know how" to modify commands or xml, etc. but I'm not a noob at this either.
If someone could help please along with how to get it to work with my phone that'd be great!!

I Need Flashable Fonts Please!

I was wondering if there are some flashable fonts for this phone. I have some that I used on my old Evo 3D. Could they be used or do they need to be set up especially for this device?

Download the font(s) you want, push them to /system/fonts, rename them using the names of the built-in fonts you want to replace, and reboot.

Thats what I thought, I used it, renamed the file and copied and replaced the file in "Fonts" and it seemed to work. So I went to Rom Tool box to install it, rebooted and Nadda. Do I need to be on a custom Rom? I am Rooted and Unlocked on ZVB.

Ok, I got it finally. On the stock ZVB Rom under Display/Fonts, there are only certain ones available to use even though there are a lot more in the Fonts folder under System. So, I had to pick the ones in that list to replace. A small catch is that if there is a name of a font there, such as "HYCoffee" in the Fonts folder there are as follows: HYCoffee_Bold.ttf and HYCoffee_Regular.ttf. You have to replace both if you want it to look right. Just so happens I picked Black Chancery folder and it had bold and regular in it so I replaced the other ones accordingly. As I was instructed to do earlier in this thread I just renamed mine to the ones I wanted to write over, copy and paste, then went to the Display settings and picked HYCoffee and Whalla!! Looks Reeeaaal Gooood Too
THANKS FOR EVERYONES INPUT!

I haven't used a stock-based ROM in ages, so there are a few minor differences (I don't have a Display > Fonts for instance), but I'm glad you got it figured out!

I usually prefer custom Roms but other than Lifeless, they all seem a little under developed yet. When more of the bugs get ironed out I'll install one. I had a couple already with this new ZVB and I just wasn't happy. Today I downloaded a WiFi Hotspot App but I couldn't get it to work so I'm going to try and figure that out today. If I was on a ZVB custom Rom I wouldn't be having any connectivity problems I don't think but I''m going to try and work with this stock one for a while.

Again, it's been a while, but if I recall correctly there was only 1 tethering app that I could ever get to work right on stock. I think it was just called "Wifi Tether" (had a yellow icon), and only an older version seemed to work properly. Look around in the Lifeless thread, I know it was posted in there somewhere, along with how to adjust the settings to get it working.

Yeah, I finally found it after searching all day and downloading countless wifi apps. Its WiFi Tether by TrevE Mod. You have to use his settings though. Thanks for your input. :good:

If you're rooted, you can just use Font Installer app. I have been using it for years. Its free and works well with all ROMs and devices - at least in my experience. I add it to all my ROM builds and it hasn't caused an issue yet. It comes with a decent selection of installed fonts to choose from, and you can also download fonts to your device and access the font file through the app. It will show you what they look like and install them. But, be forewarned, some fonts don't play nice and will cause a bootloop. In my experience, the really fancy and 'thicker' looking fonts usually bork due to size issues.
