Problem/story:you can skip this part
recently i faced i problem.
repeated crashing for weeks
i searched a solution everywhere i found nothing
then i gave up and i reset factory my device
the probelm solved Yay
month ago i installed Zfont app to change my emoji to IOS(coz its the best)
and i got my device crashing again
then i knew the problem and i knew zfont used .mtz files to install a theme
i searched a way to uninstall this files but found nothing again ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
i gave up and i wanted to reset factory my device again
then i checked how zfont installs .mtz files
i got the app app during the installation process it was Themes
i searched themes in settings i fonund nothing associated with themes app
but i can see its details in apps list (system apps)
i couldn't open it
Solution:i found app called shortcut maker on Google Play
this app let you access some hidden activities of any app
i used it to access themes app and clicked on classic then pressed apply then reboot
and then Yay my problem solved
sorry for my bad English XD
Shortcut maker useage:open the app click on activities
then search theme

EDIT: An alternative home launcher must be installed to take advantage of the "Activities" option. I have LauncherPro installed.
This is a simple workaround for those of us who have had a problem with the World Clock disappearing from the app drawer...I have attacthed the apk if you can't find it on your system!
First-Verify that Htc Clock is installed by performing a Google search with the search soft key (This is the only way it will work)...

Second-Long press any home screen and tap shortcut...
Third-Tap Activities (It may take a few seconds to load)...
Fourth-Tap Clock...
Fifth-Tap WorldClockTabControl...
Sixth-Place Clock Shortcut on any screen and enjoy

I don't think it's ever been in my app drawer. You get to it by tapping on a widget on the homescreen.
And for your workaround, you need LauncherPro installed. It does not have to be the launcher you are using. The "activities" is a LP feature, not a sense one.
I've only had this phone a couple of weeks but I remember when I first got it there was a shortcut in the app drawer....however, a few days later i recieved and OTA so maybe that's why it disappeared. Either way, this may help someone find a quicker way to get up for work in the mornings
Please read the second part of my post. You left something out of your instructions.
oops....your are very correct. forgot all about that part
This method does not work for me (the apk fails to instal). Does the phone have to be rooted?
I messed up again. Wrong apk. Bear with me, I'm still learning. Lol
I'm away from my computer for the nxt couple of days, send me a pm and I'll email you my old desk clock to use untill I can post the correct apk.
In the meantime you can always access deskclock by tapping the time on clock widget

....can't get any signal. I have an epic 4g touch that a rooted and I deleted the dialer app via titanium backup. I backed up the dialer first but I cant restore it. What do I need to do to get my phone working again. As it stands the wifi cell radio do not work.
I hate myself right now.
BTW the name in Titanium Backup is Dialer 2.3.4.
Have you tried downloading an apk installer?
I deleted the dialer app

Try installing a free dialer but not sure if that'll work.
Place your dialer.apk (which is backed up by titanium) in /system/app folder and reboot your phone.
Hope this works
I guess there are some dialer apps available in market.. One other possible solution would be, get the Dialer.apk from any other same mobile thru BT and move it to your system forlder.. I havent tried but it might well work out..
What is the problem with restoring it?
You can try manually putting it back as suggested, but it would help to pin down why the backup isn't working.
Since your rooted download romtoolbox from the market you can find the dialer apk. In your apps in another rom move the file or files into system/apps and install which ever one you want works for me might have to change permissions hope this helps I deleted my camera and resolved my problem this way hope this help

Hi guys
Sorry for the real noob question, but wondering if someone can shed some light on this for me?
I am running viper rom and installing a custom theme from their development thread, having downloaded the apk file and put to root of SD card, I then progressed to ES file explorer to install, it installed however has not changed the theme.
I have gone into personalise tray and cannot find it there??
Have i done something wrong?
Many Thanks

where did you get this .apk from?
if you installed a statusbar theme.apk, go to:
tweaks->statusbar (2nd tab)->statusbar theme support->theme pack
if its a sense theme, go to:
tweaks->sense(3rd tab)->icon pack
..after you installed the .apk
When you are in the iconpack or theme pack view you can click "get more" in the upper right to get more themes from our hub.
You can acess this hub also when yu open the app drawer and search for venom hub.

Hi guys...

Market Helper.
What is this?
Market Helper is a tool for Android that helps users can change/fake their rooted devices to any other devices. It can make your Nexus 7 become Samsung Galaxy S3 in a few seconds. No reboot is required.
Why do I need to use this?
To download and install incompatible apps on your devices. For example, if you want to install Viber on your Nexus 7, switch it to Samsung Galaxy S3 and you’ll can. Or if you changed your DPI setting, you’ll find this app is very useful.
Why is this app awesome?
- It DOES NOT touch your build.prop or any system files so it’s easier and safer.
- You don’t have to reboot the device to update the change.
- You can switch back to your original device anytime, by using “Restore” feature or simply just reboot the device ( with wifi/3g is enabled )
- Totally free

Hmmmm...this is the step for sideload installer if you have a bunch of themes in your SD card....
1. Using Root explorer (or any file manager that have thumbnails view) go to the folder where you save your themes....
2. look carefully at the themes....which ever themes that show themes thumbnails, that is the themes that will work on PAC 4.4....just install and apply that themes...if there no thumbnails (only green android logo) then themes will not work.....
MoKee have an app to convert any theme to the new standard.
It looks a bit complicated but is not too difficult and it works
