Stock Live Wallpapers? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Just got my Galaxy Nexus yesterday from Verizon, got it up to date, unlocked, rooted, and then began trying out ROMs. I'm rocking RootzBoat with a faux123 kernel, and I love it.
HOWEVER, the ROM is missing a few of the nice live wallpapers that the phone comes with by default. The one I'm really looking for is Microbes. Can anyone throw up the APK for it?
Or, is there any way to pull it out of the Clockwork backup I made prior to flashing the sweet ROM? I really don't wanna have to go back to stock and then back to where I am now just to harvest a few APKs.
This phone rocks!

Try using APK Extractor from the market

I ended up switching ROMs, so in the process I restored to my backup and then was able to pull the APK.
If someone wants the "stock" Microbes.apk from the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, you can get it here:

[Q] Best Customizations for Rooted Incredible with Stock Rom

I have an Incredible that I have rooted with unrevoked. I rooted it after I received the ota update with froyo and have done nothing else. I have yet to put a rom on since I really don't want to download and install all of my apps again and tweak my preferences. All that being said I want to do some things to customize my phone and have read about other ways to customize with roms, what things am I able to do? Here are some of the things I would love to be able to do to my phone:
Color Notification Icons - Is there a way? I tried one months ago and my phone crashed so I had to do a nandroid restore.
Change Lockscreen - Is there a way I can change the slider? Different color or something?
Blue Theme - I'd love to change all the places that are green to blue, such as when dialing or navigating around on the phone.
Is there anything else you guys have done to your Incredible that sets it apart? I really love to customize and tweak things to make it my own. Thanks for reading and helping out guys.

This is easiest to do using CM6/7 and applying a theme pack
Change Lockscreen - Is there a way I can change the slider? Different color or something
> Not many customizations have been made to the HTC lockscreen. You can find a few metamorphs for VANILLA lockscreens to make it look like the Droid 2 / R2D2
Blue Theme - I'd love to change all the places that are green to blue, such as when dialing or navigating around on the phone.
> I use the Galaxy S theme for CM6, this did a pretty good job of the blue theme

Minimalistic Text Widget & Launcher Pro are your friends
I also LOVE sonnysekhon's themes for CM7.
Good luck, have fun, nandroid, rinse, repeat

Forgot, you aren't deodexed.... you really need a custom rom to be able to theme. If you want a stock sense you should look into virtuous... its pretty much stock, looks stock but is still custom. Then you can flash themes on it.....
A little off topic, but since I want to learn...
What exactly is deodexed? I remember moving *.odex files from system apps I didn't want after I rooted.
And that's a bummer, I'd hate to have to install all of my apps again after flashing to a new rom. I have looked at both Virtuous and Vanilla in the past but didn't want to deal with all of the extra work afterwards. I'm unsure what CM6/CM7 is, I'm about to google it.
Is there anything I am able to do besides what I've mentioned?
Try flashing virtuous without wiping data, just wipe caches. like I said before, that's pretty much a stock sense rom. You should be ok and not need to re set up your stuff. If not, restore nandroid.

If your main concern about trying out ROM's is having to re-download all of your apps, I have an app for that
Titanium Backup
Super simple. It lets you back up the apps you downloaded. Here's what you do:
1. Download Titanium Backup from the market
2. Individually back up your apps using Ti - WARNING! DO NOT BACK UP SYSTEM DATA. Also don't back up Gmail/Maps/anything stock that's going to be in the new ROM. Titanium shows items in red that you shouldn't back up, so it shouldn't be too hard. Rule of thumb: if you downloaded it yourself, back it up, if not, stay away
3. Download your new ROM and put it on your SD card
4. Wipe
5. Flash new ROM - FYI CM7 stands for "CyanogenMod 7" which is a really popular AOSP ROM
6. Sign in with your Google account/Facebook/etc.
7. Download Titanium backup > Batch > Restore apps
You're going to have to click "Install" for every app you backed up if you've got the free version, the paid one does it for you.
You're also going to have to do your other tweaks (ringtones, autorotate, etc.) manually as Ti can't do that, but I think it's well worth the initial time investment to get a better/faster/more customizable ROM
TL;DR: Titanium Backup backs up your apps. If you want customization, you need a new ROM. If you want Sense, SkyRaider 3.5 or Incredibly Re-engineered 2.3.1 is best for customization (both have blue themes available), but Virtuous gives you the most "stock" feel. If you want AOSP, can't do much better than CyanogenMod7 for theming
EDIT: In response to your original post...
Colored Notifications are only going to work on a deodexed ROM (aka Virtuous/SkyRaider) - there is a rooted/deodexed stock ROM floating around that rmk40 posted (he also created Virtuous)
WidgetLocker is a paid app that can change your lockscreen - and here's a really popular app on modding the stock options it gives to your liking: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=825553
Cyanogenmod7 or CM7 is basically one of the most badass roms available, it's not only the newest of the cyanogenmod series but it's also built off of android 2.3 Gingerbread, so no having to wait for the actual legit GB release like everyone that's not rooted. If you want to see it in action look for it on youtube, otherwise to learn about it go to cyanogenmod.com or cyanogenmod.com/forums, everyone there is very helpful. I am running the RC1 of CM7, there is a few nightly builds after that so far but I'm just gonna stick with the first release canidate until RC2 hits.
I'd say the main reason I rooted was to try out different ROMs. I know you said you want to leave all your preferences and apps untouched, but I quickly got over that. I got all my contacts organized in GMail so that they sync every time I flash a new ROM. Each ROM has different preferences to play around with. For apps, I realized what I needed to do was just choose a few really important ones so I wouldn't have to spend all day setting up my apps for each new ROM.
I'd recommend doing a nandroid backup in recovery and trying out a few different ROMs. Try MIUI and Cyanogenmod 7, they're great. When your done you can restore your nandroid backup and get back to exactly where you are right now.
If you decide you want to stick with a new ROM, you can use Titanium Backup to restore your important app data, like someone else pointed out.
Once you're rooted there is a whole new world of opportunities...have fun!
Ok you guy's have got me very interested now. I think I want to move forward now! That cm7 looks great and I'd love to move to gingerbread. I was curious since this is the nightly beta release if I could later get the updates without flashing a rom again and restoring my apps. I had also heard I would have to flash more files like the radio after the install too. I'll have to read more on this.
Use Titanium Backup for all your apps and their data where you can put them all back on your new ROM.
You can do a full backup via Clock Works so if you don't like the new ROM or don't want to deal with any more of this new stuff then you can revert exactly to where you were before.
> For the lockscreen you can uninstall the lockscreen and then the default android one will be there.
To change the main look and feel you can try Launcher Pro from the market. It's pretty sweet. I use it with my custom ROM just because I love the cube transition and how you can hide a lot of the useless apps in the app drawer.
If you dont want to load a custom rom but would like to just theme there is a deodexed completely stock rom around here that will give you that option. All you need to do is flash in recovery and since you are going from a stock rom to another stock rom you do not need to wipe/clear anything so all of your apps and settings will remain intact.
you can consider just flashing skyraiders 3.5 and then not doing anything fancy. It's very close to stock with little improvements around so you might find that to be a good start.
Thanks for all of the comments and suggestions guys. For right now I think I am going to wait for a stable release of CM7 before I flash a rom. I really want Gingerbread but not an unstable release of it. I am looking at LauncherPro now and thinking of checking out ADW. I've watched some different videos on both, which do you guys think is better?
I also did one mod I'm happy about, I changed the market app to the themed "Black Market" with the different icon and appearance. I think I am going to look for some transparent apps next to do something different. I with there was more I could do with my stock rom, it sucks not being deodexed. Anything else worthwhile to look into?

CM7 is incredibly stable for only being at RC1....
I use it everyday now (Occasionally flashing something for fun) and I have NO problems with it.
If you flash CM7 RC1 you won't regret it. Just my two cents.
How long would anyone guess the final release will take? I think I am just going to keep an eye on it's progress and eventually switch. While it may be working well now I just feel uneasy about flashing that rom now, even though I can restore a backup. I'm having some fun now customizing my phone with Launcher Pro. I certainly like the customizable dock over the Sense dock. I'm trying to search for mods I can do with my non-deodexed rom but not too much luck. Thanks for the thoughts everyone!
I used to be like you so just as some insight from someone who remembers being where you are. Don't worry about cm7 rc1 or the newest nighlys, they're very stable. Although for a stock sense experience, one fun rom I've found to be fun and really have me flashing back and forth with cm7 is incredibly re engineered. With Chad's kernel its super fast, battery efficient and stable.
So ymmv but cm rc's are generally pretty stable. And incredibly re engineered is also a great choice

ok i am a noob and just like the guy before i am rooted and using hydra oc kernal but stock rom froyo 2.2 and preaty much same reasons as the other guy for not flashing a rom yet. i think my main problem is just not quite sure of all the details yet. someone mentioned making a backup through clockwork i did that, chose the backup and restore option, but not sure what all this actualy backs up...everything? or just parts, and also little hazy on the kernel/rom workable combinations... how do you know which ones can be used together and which will brick or what ever may be the consiquencess, i only have had my phone little over a month, so i still working up my courage too. gained some today my wife's got same phone and had hers rooted with same kernel, and needed to return it cause having sms, and call issues. i was able to return hers to stock and s-on. so that really boosted my confidence, i know alot of it is just brute force reading to learn but i never was much on long reads, so i usualy read other peoples mastakes and not do that and try everything else in time... kinda of an ass-backwards way of doing it but does tend to cut down on the reading...lol so any tips you want to throw at me i am listening...
funny i just found that htc had a phone named Thoth, but i guess it was canceled or something...to bad liked the name...
well thank you all in advance!

I've got my SF all hacked up and running nicely, but my girlfriend says I can hack her Dinc now! I'm all new to it. I can root and install CWM and whatnot. I know thousands of these threads exist, but most are outdated. I'm interested in what people are running here and now. Looking for a simple ROM w/ VZW bloatware stripped but still running stock HTC weather app with the animations and whatnot. Which kernel are you running and what kind of battery life do you get? TIA!
Edit: One more thing...a program called Odin exists for my fascinate...which allows basically one click back to stock from any setup. Anything like that exist for the dinc?

odin is for samsung only. i dont thing there is any thing like that for an incredible.
cwm is going to be your best bet. just make a nandroid after you get s=off so you can go back to your stock rom.
for a rom with out bloat ware your going to need to search the development side of the forum for a rom that sounds good to you. you can also remove bloat ware your self with titanium backup.
yeah its really just a matter of backing it up first (your stock image) then searching and testing out the different ROMS.
Definatley titanium backup for individual app maintenance.
Check out this one for a stock rom.

[Q] Need help (beginner)

Hi all,
Hey, so im new to the forum and new to android phones, having owned an iphone for 3-4 years now decided enough is enough with that ****e.
So i've have the note 2 for the best part of 2 weeks and so far im happy with it. I've always been a customize freak, customising everything within phones, but seeing as i'm new to android i was learning my way around the OS. I decided to root the phone, which i did eventually, then decided to explore a little further in adding a theme. After hours and days of reading about themes and roms etc i decided to download the Moto00 theme, which needed omega rom.
So i downloaded the theme and the rom, not really knowing wtf a rom is (thought it was only for a theme) and i don't like it as i have to do wayyyy too much for a theme, even though it sounds simple, like i said im new to this.
I would like to go back to my stock theme but i have no idea how or what to do.. so basically if anyone can help me go back to thw original theme and rom or w.e it's called.. ( please explain in a way that i'll understand lol)
Much appreciated !!

It's quite simple.
Although you can't keep your root afterwards. You would need to reroot it afterwards.
The process is same with jailbreaking. You would reinstall iOS, and you lose the jailbreak, then rejailbreak it.
Download Odin, which I assume you know about because you had already rooted your phone before, and also had CWM.
Put your phone into download mode, and via Odin, just flash your stock rom, which you can get from sammobile.
The rom needs to be extracted from the zip on your PC desktop and the .tar.md5 is the file you point to at in PDA.

would you be able to give me the exact link to be able to download the stock rom?
http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3
You will need to register.
Choose the country you're from, or the country which you want to flash it to.
I'm from UK, so I choose United Kingdom.
The roms on Android aren't themes like you would expect in Winterboard.
It's a whole new "OS" which is built upon the latest Android OS. With tweaks made to it.
You can give custom launchers a try if you find stock too boring. Launchers are just "apps" that you download from the store.
The only way to remove a custom rom is to reflash it with a stock rom, and I've shown you know to do it.
If you're determined to get rid of the custom rom entirely and return to stock, without root, you need to reset the flash counter first.
With your phone rooted, install Triangle Away, you can get it here on XDA. Reset the counter, then flash the stock rom in Odin.
Then go into recovery (which is now the stock recovery) and, wipe data, and cache.
Then your phone is back to normal with no modifications. It'll be good to go back to the store for warranty.
If you decide to root your phone again, the counter will be raised. And the system status would be modified.
I came from iOS as well, and like you, I was on the iPhone 4 which I got sick of by the end of my 2 years.
Android is much more powerful in terms of customisation. The process of learning all the new jargon is daunting, but soon, you'll get the hang of it.
If you need any more help, just ask.

[Q] App Data Extraction from Old Device

All,
I'm trying to extract some data for use in an application on a new phone. Let me run everyone through what I have and what I want to do first so you can answer this question for me.
Old phone - HTC Evo 4G. It is rooted and still on the stock rom.
New phone - Samsung Galaxy S3. All stock.
Goal: I have the FuelLog app installed on my HTC Evo 4G. I would like to pull all of the data out of the app on my Evo and drop the file into the app on my Galaxy S3 so that I don't have to manually punch in all the data.
I think you can pay for the app and export/import, but since my Evo is rooted, I figured it might be as simple as copy/pasting a folder somewhere on my evo directly into the S3. Is it possible and can anyone help me accomplish this?
Thanks for the help!
I'd think ti backup would work if you rooted your s3. Just restore data only on the fuel app. No matter what route you choose make sure you have a good back up for the s3 because it gets sticky restoring apps and data rom to rom..let alone phone to phone.

Do I have to root my S3 as well then in order to use Titanium to restore to the S3? I wasn't so sure I was going to root the S3 this time because I frankly need to make sure I have a solid reliable phone for work, and I don't want to risk jacking with the S3 too much. I plan on using my old Evo to get better at rooting and exploring customization.
Yes its a root tool. Root support looks pretty solid over on the s3 thread. You'd have to look around to see if theirs any daily drivers as far as roms though. Just keep in mind that you don't have to play with custom roms. Just root it and stay stock if you like. I just looked and they have odin figured out over their which means as long as it turns on your golden. Thats the sweet thing about samsung. No dealing with bootloader bs. Odin and done.
I just upgraded to the SG3. Was very easy to root. And I used titanium backup to restore my apps that I wanted to keep from my evo. I have the pro version of TB and used the drop-box feature to sync my backup. Then was able to re-sync from drop-box to the new phone with TB. Worked great.

[Q]Guides For Installing Roms?

Coming from an EVO 4G I thought I had a pretty good grip on installing roms. A week after getting and rooting my S3 I'm still gun shy. I want to install Jelly Bomb but I keep seeing posts about flash counters and dirty flash. I've never heard this mentioned before. Are these Samsung exclusive terms? I wanted to go easy and find a Rom as close to Stock as possible with the ability to remove apps to get my feet wet but haven't found one. This phone seems easier to brick than the EVO. Am I right? Also, I see things referencing Touchwiz and fishing it. Very confused. Samsung's version of Sense I guess?

Flash counters can be reset pretty easy these days. all roms labeled as having TW or touchwiz are pretty much stock with things like battery saving mods or battery hogging apps removed that are usually not needed"debloated".

Here's what you do...former evo'er here as well...
Grab the one click Odin LJ7 that you will find in sg3/android dev. Titled (root)odin one clicks by billard. Read the post so you understand how to use it. Save it to your CPU. That will save you if you ever brick your shiny new phone.
Go on you tube and search qbking77....you'll find every video you want regarding rooting and installing cmw
After that its the exact same way to flash ROMs as your evo. I promise.
Good luck

I luv this rom, super themed though, not everyone likes all the blue. For me everything works. Just the statusbar after a reboot, you have to pull down notification bar once to get it to show up. Other than that no problems, kernal in 10.2 allows overclocking also.
this post sent from my Jellybombed GalaxySIII
Your fine then...just install cmw and your good to go.
The galaxy 3 is different than the evo in the sense that its very easy to root and unroot using Odin. The evo is a pain to unroot.
Make sure your grab that one click Odin and save tho because it will bail you out of trouble if something gets screwed up. You could run that and it will return you to stock or stock rooted (your choice depending on what file you download).
Anyways. Install cmw. Download ROM to your SD or internal SD. Hold volume up, home, power to cmw. Wipe/factory reset x3, wipe cache, advanced/wipe dalvik, install ROM, reboot
By the way. If you want what you posted in op keep stock but rooted. If you want a better kernel flash team sonics or jelly bomb with kt747....but if I were you I'd go SlimBean...enjoy
One other thing. What's this business about downloading a modem?
The roms are not modem dependant. And chances are if you're on stock you already have the latest modem. If you want to confirm go in the about section of settings and look at your baseband. should end in LJ7. Like I said though its not really important
If the modem isn't that important, why can't I connect to Sprint's network at all? I was working on installing the Goodness ROM which said I had to install a particular modem. I downloaded all files to the computer as suggested, transferred them to the phone then used TWRP as my backup and installed the ROM and the modem as stated. When I went to reboot it told me that there was no ROM installed. So I went back to my recovery installed it and now I can not connect to the network at all. Can someone please help? I need my phone as I am a Paramedic and I talk to the hospitals with it when I am bringing them a pt.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Not trying to sound harsh here but if that's the case just stay stock rooted. You need the phone brother...peoples lives are depending on it...lol
On a lighter side, I do t have experience with that ROM. But sounds like a bad flash. Wipe/factory reset...cache....dalvik...and I even format the internal SD...haven't had any problems
Open the dialer and hit ##72786# Should set ya straight
Oh well that didn't work. I watched the QBKing77 video and followed those instructions. Install took way less than I expected. Maybe two minutes? I pressed reboot and it rebooted back into recovery. That didn't go so well.
