[Q] How to re-install HTC Sense 2.1 lock screen?

I accidentally deleted the htc sense 2.1 lock screen from my Wildfire S. I do not have a backup either. How do I get back my stock 2.1 lock screen?

Use my patch if you want for sense 3.5 , it is built to replace the original lockscreen , but if you got it removed it will re-add the patched files ...

U could try taking the htclockscreen.apk and rosie.apk from /system/app from the .zip of the rom you are using. Copy that to your current /system/app and change permissions to rw- r- r-

How do I do that? And I don't have any lock screen files in that folder. Also, how do I change permissions?

Use es file explorer. Open it up and go to settings, turn on root explorer, then mount file system. To get to / click on the star on the top left "favorites". To change permissions long press the file, go to properties, then it will show permissions and has a change button to let u modify. Download the ROM.zip u r using and use es to browse .zip and copy the files u need. Don't forget the odex files if your rom has them

How do i install it?

What is it doing? It doesn't have to install just needs the files copied to the correct location and the permissions changed. Then u just need to reboot and clearing cache and dalvik cache would be a good idea.

You don't have to install it. You have to replace it. Or in your case just copy and paste it in the /system/app folder.

You must put the APK in /system/app and make sure it has no spaces in its filename and then set permissions, that should be it.

Copy paste whatever apk you want in the system/app folder.
Use root explorer and long press the app you have pasted.
Select permissions and make sure it is rw-,r--.r--
And you are good to go.

You don't have to set permissions at all if you're adding the apps to a ZIP before flashing, only if you're adding them to a ROM already running on your phone

That's right, only paste the apk in the system/app/ of the rom zip and flash it

you also will have to sign the zip or repack it.

If you open it with 7-Zip you don't have to either! Although I personally resign them, cba with turning off signature checking in CWM!

1% battery mod for Australian XT905 JB

This is a deodexed SystemUI.apk for Australian XT905 telstra stock JB with battery icons for every 1%.
Did for myself but maybe somebody else will use it.
The icons have been taken from here.

Your phone has to be rooted and you need to have any root explorer installed.
1. I'd suggest to back up SystemUI.apk and SystemUI.odex from the folder /system/app and to think about a recovery plan if something goes wrong.
2. Copy my SystemUI.apk into the folder /system and change its permissions to rw-r--r-- (644).
3. Delete SystemUI.odex from /system/app and move SystemUI.apk file from the folder /system to the folder /system/app with a replacement of the existing file.
4. After a successful replacement you will probably get some errors, all you need is to restart the device.
PS if you don't know or understand anything from the above firstly read about it then act or otherwise you can damage your smartphone.
I'm not responsible if anything goes wrong.

That all makes sense, only thing I don't know how to do is change permissions for the apk. How do I do that?
EDIT: using both es explorer or androzip i'm unable to move the file to the system folder. I have no idea how to get it there. Should I try a different file explorer?

If you are deodexed rty mod from here
Flash it with TWRP

Not deodexed, no idea how to.
I'm fully rooted, bootloader unlocked, cwm recovery and also safestrapped.
I managed to get it into the system folder but not into the app folder. Lucky I backed up in cwm, phone kinda needs a working system ui doesn't it!

To change the permissions you need to go to the file properties. After that just cut-paste it into the app folder. Es file explorer always works for me . However it had a strange behaviour when I tried to use 'copy to' or 'move to', so just cut-paste.

Finally got this going thanks to your patience! I had to leave the permissions to rwe and only copy/paste would work for some reason. Had to reset my wallpaper and turn data back on after reboot.
Otherwise all good, thanks!

[GUIDE] Get ANY 4.2.2 PrimoC ROM Working on Cricket

I've decided to make a solution for primoc users who are on the Cricket network and want to have working Mms on a custom ROM due to requests.
EXPERIMENT:
Nestoh has included my patch and added his own Virgin Mobile carrier text mod to it in a flashable zip. Try it and report if it works for you please!!! (Recommended to try on RhythmicRom!)
DOWNLOAD
Okay so this is quite simple.
Step 1: Download this and copy to your SD Card.
Step 2: Flash the VMtoCricket.zip in recovery
Step 3: Wipe Cache & Davlik then reboot into your ROM
Okay, now the easy part is done. Now we will change your APN settings to get your phone up and running on Cricket.
Now Follow These Steps:
-Open voice dialer
-Say Open Apn's
-Open Spint APN
-Hit Menu then Delete Sprint APN
-Hit menu then New APN
-Input the APN settings for cricket
APN Settings:
Code:
Carrier=Cricket
Apn=Cricket
Proxy=wap.mycricket.com
Port=8080
[email protected]
Password=cricket
MMSC=http://mms.mycricket.com/mycricket/mms.php
Hopefully this works for you! Fяy has verified for me it has worked.

This works fully now i finally have working mms on my rom

Just installed this, but I haven't tried to send any mms. Just wanted to add this onto it. Since it still says the carrier name is Virgin Mobile, here's a quick fix for that.
1. Download this http://www.mediafire.com/?lul47jcyj52t49c
2. Copy and paste it into your /system/framework
3. Set the permissions to -rw-r--r--
4. Reboot
Note- Make a backup before installing just in case. Because I know some people will forget to set the permissions or will set them wrong. Also, try pushing it through ADB, it's much easier.
Edit: By the way, this is for the Rhytmic Rom

ok... I just installed Rhythmic on my wife's phone... flawless! and flashed the cricket mms fix... working!! I just wanted to drop by an tell you THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No? Its the framework-res.apk its in your /system/framework folder. Do this step by step. Make a backup first tho.
1. The apk you downloaded (which is the framework-res.apk) rename it to 1framework-res.apk
2. Copy and paste it to the folder /system/framework
3. Set the permissions to -rw-r--r--
4. Delete the other framework-res.apk
5. Rename the '1framework-res.apk' to just 'framework-res.apk'
6. Reboot your phone.

Yeah things are going to force close, just close those messages and you'll get a chance to rename it. I honestly can't make my steps any simpler.

Hmm...
Maybe somebody can provide you the stock 4.4.4 system UI apk for the z1 Compact then.
Unfortunately I'm not on stock and have a modified system UI myself so I can't do this.
Then you could flash/replace the stock system UI and it should work again.
Alternatively, downoad a stock based ROM and extract the system UI from there.
Then transfer it to your phone and replace it.
I don't know if this would work... Better make a backup first

I'll upload the SystemUI.apk from the Kitslim ROM.
It is based on stock 4.4.4
If you are lucky, it works.
Extract it and replace it with your corrupted systemUI.apk on your phone.
Don't flash it. Just copy and paste it to your phone.
This is just a suggestion! But I keep my fingers crossed :fingers-crossed:

I'm not entirely sure if you have to be deodexed.
And yes it belongs to system/app. Permissions should be rw-r-r.
Since your SystemUI is corrupted anyway, you could at least give it a try.
If you are unsure about this, wait for someone who can tell you 100%.
I'm just suggesting what I would try here ^^

You could try to do it with the ES File Explorer.
It allows you to navigate through the directories without onscreen buttons.
Alternatively mount your phone on your PC and copy it there.
If that does not help, you have to wait until somebody can provide you a flashable ZIP.
I'm on mobile now so I can't help any further for the moment.

I SOLVED IT!!! What I do? first download from my computer the apk of ES file Explorer and the apk of system UI, after that, i will enable in ES file explorer the root mode and the permission for write in system, Then i copy the systemui.apk to system and set permissions and after that i move systemui.apk to system/app. Then reboot and all is done. :good::good::good::good::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:

Glad you solved it :good:

Thank you so much. This worked for me too.
