I believe its some sort of protection for certain files. Kinda like how files on a PC can be "read only" for security reasons, such as deleting or modifying it by accident.
 
get root explorer and go into your system folder then media or boot animation folder i cant remember exactly where. once your in one of the folders you can play the music files till you find the metro sound and just rename it...dnt forget to hit mount button on root explorer..



It might also be here cust/metro/us, and del media
 
So I installed this and every time i try turning my wifi on it just says "error" and when i launch the camera it shows a white screen where the picture preview is supposed to be at. Everything else works fine but those two, is there any fix for it?
Those two things are are big deal breakers for me. And if im not misunderstood the ascend roms can be used on this phone as well? Ive been reading comments and people are saying they do. If not which phones roms can be used on this phone?

the cust partition shouldnt affect anything in CM ;)

But the bootanimation.zip is found in system/media.

Sounds like you need to boot into CWM and wipe everything but the sdcard and reflash the ROM, gapps, and metroff.
 
would it be too much to ask to ask how I would exactly boot into cw and wipe everything cuz I've no clue how to do that. if you can do that for me I would appreciate it but if you can't I understand you already answered my question and I don't wanna take up too much if your time. I just wanna get this working so bad you do not understand how much I wanna have c m 7 on my phone. ellie just let you know in philly everyone knows about you and thinks your a king.
 
Ok... hey all, new to the forums, not new to modding, but by no means an expert. I've got a couple of finer points I'd like to add, toss around, w/e.

Unless you are up for a ramble, skip on down lol.

I'm testing/tweaking/pushing through several diff ROMs with any compatibility at the moment. Ascend ROMs, U8150 ROMs, etc. Having tested Mate35 (Thanks PG, I tweaked it to my personal taste and is my permanent backup ROM!), CM7 that Uptnolaboy uploaded, and PG's build, so far PG is definitely in the running for my #1. I have CWM 3.0.0.5 on my partition, and saved backups for those 3 so far, just for comparing/flipping. This build runs like a dream. Wifi is only a consideration when I'm at home, which is rare since I work 60+ hrs a week, so it does the job 99% of the day. I flip back to my Mate35 @ home for updating or tweaking.

That having been rambled off---
TL;DR --- I play a lot with ROM flashing lol

I spend a lot of idle time at work, etc where I could possibly help. The big two questions I got are for you, PG.

1. Is it possible to look @ or compare wifi settings while ON the phone? I ask cuz I can swap pretty liberally between the 3 roms I mentioned on the fly, so a) if I can and b) know what I'm looking for, I might be able to throw some data your way if it would help you? I'm no modding expert, but I know my way around file structures and such.

2. Is CWM 3.0.0.5 for Ascend as high as we can safely go? I know theres a 3.6 or something out now, and I dunno if it was safe to flash over as my new recovery.img since it's not a M835 recov in the first place.

Sorry for the long post XD tryin to be helpful and cram before im off to work and cant type ALL that lol!

:cool:

For the M835 Philadelphia, hold volume up and the green/left call button when powering on, it should auto-boot into CWM if its on there. Just choose wipe data/factory reset (it's the 3rd option down if i recall correctly) and then go to advanced options and choose wipe dalvik cache.

Also... since you said you have a M860, you should really head over to the Ascend forum, since that's for your phone and the people there will be much more able to help, aside from PG of course. ;)

That's all! :cool:
 
no that was a typo I have an 835. and thank you for the I help cause I would never knew how to do that and hopefully I can get this to work because I'm killing myself over it.
