I was almost in your situation (root with stock ROM + kernel nFinity for overclocking) and I experienced no trackball wake up even if I followed all the steps correctly: unzip the attached file, place it in system\usr\keylayout and trackball wake up will work.

mmm I'm confused, why do you speak using the past? have you resolve the problem with that method?
I've tryed again, but nothing...

I spoke in the past because after a quite long time in the situation like yours, I installed RemPuzzle ROM.
During that time, I tried to save a curcial-oj file from Windows Notepad but it was unsuccessful.
Then I used the file that I have posted (it is 1 bit smaller than the file generated by notepad) and after a reboot all was fine.
Have you tried with this file?...

If I'm not wrong,Rempuzzle supports trackball wake by default.

Yes, in the same way: there is the curcial-oj.kl file in the \system\usr\keylayout folder.
IMPORTANT: don't forget to change the file permission to rw-r--r-- otherwise it won't work...

[REQ] Nexus One (aka Stock) Lock Screen

I am hoping a few other people will join me in hunting down the elusive vanilla lock screen that works with the stock rooted 1.47 ROM.
I am aware that Flipz has one that works with his and DC's ROMs, however, it does not work with the stock rooted ROM. The layout of the lock screen is vertical. It is very odd.
This seems like a simple fix, and I am certainly willing to contribute with testing, etc. So, if anyone has any free time and is looking for a project, I would love to see a functional vanilla lock screen.
Thanks in advance!

This is a flashable theme zip from DC. It should work with any ROM. Make sure you backup before flashing, you never know what can go wrong.
Give this a try. Make sure to delete HtcLockScreen.apk from /system/app/.
push this into the /system/framework/ and remove the HTCLockScreen.apk from /system/app/
Edit: Sorry the file is too large to upload. use the zip in the above post

Didn't work.
I pushed the zip file into the system framework. I went into shell, then ran a chmod 6755 command.
The zip installed, but again, the lock screen is vertical.

Ah, well it installed like I said, but the lock screen was vertical. I'm restoring right now, but then I'll try to install via recovery.

Why wouldn't it work even if it is for deodexed roms?

Well, thanks for the heads up! I may install tonight. However, your post was not on point.
I may try CM6 when it is released, but I rather like the setup I have now. It's a stock rooted rom and today I successfully pushed the vanilla android messenger, calculator, music, clock and browser apps.
I think the vanilla lock screen is far more functional, albeit less attractive.
Wow my prior post did not make sense lol. I believe CM6 has the Vanilla Lock Screen.

can anyone tell me how to delete the HTCLockScreen.apk from /system/app/ if it's read only? i tried chmod'ing it in terminal but it still says read only
I always see the interest in the vanilla lock screen but I never understood why. I tried it on fresh and it doesn't give you a snippets of the text message on the front before you unlock. What's the advantage of the vanilla lock?

the only reason i like it is being able to go to silent mode without unlocking or holding the power button down. you can also just hit menu and it'll unlock without having to slide.

You need full root with nand unlocked. You could use root explorer and mount as r/w. Alternatively you could reboot into recovery and use adb shell to delete the apk.

You can get a vanilla lock by deleting HTCLockScreen.apk. That apk is basically HTC's custom lock screen, removing it shows the android 'vanilla' one. Here's how:
Code:
adb remount
adb shell
cd /system/app
mv HtcLockScreen.apk HtcLockScreen.bak
exit

[BOOT IMAGE] ANDROID boot image

ok so this is the stock android boot image where ANDROID in android font flashes across the screen. there is no lag and looks very nice. follow the steps bellow to install.
WARNING - ANYTHING THAT MODIFIES THE FILES ON YOUR PHONE MAY DAMAGE IT. ONLY FOLLOW THE STEPD BELLOW IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING!
To be able to do this you will need root explorer.
you can buy this off the android market or find it online
1 - install root explorer onto your phone trough some sort of file manager
2 - download the bootanimation.zip file from the link below
3 - place it in the root of your sd card ( if on the xda app it will be in your downloads folder)
4 - open root explorer and switch to be able to write
5 - copy the boot.img file from your sd card to system/media and delete the boot image or animation already there( if that doesnt work try data/local )
6 - reboot your phone to make sure the boot animation is working properly

Unfortunately I have to disagree. This is the stock built in bootanimation. You don't need any special files to envoke it.
If you simply remove the /system/media/bootanimation.zip you get the same results.
Don't take it the wrong way, perhaps you were just miss informed.

I have installed CWM 5.0.2.6, Superuser, ROM tool box, busybox. Using Android 2.3.5, ROM ver is 2.13.720.1, HBOOT-1.08.0099.
What caused my device to boot again.?

My HTC Wildfire S has got stuck in boot-loops a few times, when a flash has gone wrong, for whatever reason. The only way I got mine back on track was to use Rezo's All-in-one tool to flash CWM Recovery, and go from there.
Link to Rezo's wonderful tool, which, by the way, is the only one that actually managed to root my Wildfire S in the first place... all the rest failed.

There is a file called runme.bat. Run it.
Menu after that is self-explanatory... you probably want option 10, "Install CWM Recovery". Do it, and follow the on-screen instructions.
Let it do its thing, and then hey presto, you have ClockworkMod Recovery installed. Your phone should automatically boot into it, so make sure you have the ROM you want to flash ready in ZIP format on your MicroSD card. Use the Volume Up/Volume Down softkeys to navigate the menus... you need to select "Install a ZIP from SD-Card", and then select to browse the SD card to find the zip... you use the search softkey to select items, rather than the power button. Browse to the ROM ZIP, and select it, let it flash it to your phone, and you have your ROM.
I Got back my Device !!! Thanks to all...
OMG !!!
I Got Back my HTC WildFire S, after 8 days of hopeless and restless !!.
But I never lost the confidence and keep trying (on the right track).
The method which helped me to clear the problem is here :

go to :

and it worked !
Now my HTC Wildfire S is working perfectly.
(Damn i will never install that Font App again)
Anyway thanks to all who supported me......

Extract it from the RUU
1) Run RUU
2) If you're running windows 7, type %TEMP% on the windows explorer
3) Look for a very long name of a folder (Don't remember) and look for rom.zip
4) Open the archive using 7zip (Best one, other than that might have problems)
5) look for signed_boot.img
6) Extract it and flash it as usual
Hope it helps ^^

2. what about stock kernel? Do I still need to look for one, or everything is inside that ROM package?

[Q] Creating a ROM (Ubuntu)

Hi, I'm a newb/noob at this forum :victory: and I am attempting to create a ROM for the first time although when I followed this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2249223
There is only a guide for Windows, I installed the Kitchen in Ubunu after striving for a few hours and I'm wondering if there's a guide for Ubuntu?
Also, when I tried following the Windows guide, I downloaded the endeavoru voda-hutch shipped ROM to start off with, although the system file isn't 4EXT where in the guide it says that it should be 4EXT. I don't know if that is going to be a problem throughout the process.
Thank a lot in advance for any help, I appreciate it heaps.

Hi mate creating a Rom with ubuntu is pretty easy for the kitchen just extract the kitchen to your hone folder and rename to kitchen,then open terminal type CD kitchen press enter then ./menu. Secondly if your using a nandroid all you need is the boot.img and system ext.tar.
Hi, thanks for your reply! I'm using a shipped ROM so when I do ./menu and choose the files, the system file isn't ext for some reason.
