Root CyanogenMod 7 Unofficial Beta 5 02/20/12

mines stays at the loading screen with the android on the skate board. i did change the framework-res.apk. only thing i changed there was the strings fro roaming indicator which i had done with the first beta and it worked. maybe im doing something wrong. when recompiling the apk when it asks if its a system app i put y cuz i dont remember what i pressed last time. then when it asks if i want to copy any other files to get the least amount of error i put no. it then makes a unsignedframework-res.apk i rename it to say only framework-res and copy it to hroarks zip and flash it through cwm. i even tried using the framework-res.apk i made for the other one and it wont work. do i have to select no when it asks if its a system apk? i dont remember how i did it last time.
 
Here is a fix! my first mod!! thanks too hroark for makeing me brave enough to boot loop my phone! lol this one works.

Fix for Roaming Indicator


THIS is for the stock rom/themes from hroark, do not install this if u are useing a custom theme as it will mess it up.


i edited the strings.xml and the eri.xml

and used one of hroark zip files to make this flashable
 
i have also found a new bug.

screenshots the colors are all off. im useing the blue background from cyanogen and all the colors are off when taking screen shots. seems the reds are blues

first off thanks for the detailed answer. sonic2wb. was wondering if you have any problems with the phone randomly rebooting while tethering. and although i have a temp solution with wireless tether i'd like to be able to use as hotspot

and thanks hroark for suggesting wireless tether. i saw it in the market but skipped it thinking it was wifi. because of the icon. in fact design looks exactly the same. missing some options and haven't been able to sign on with other android phone(has no service). but i use it for over an hour and no random reboots. speed is pretty good too.

anytime. the one from the market is ad-hoc only. the beta from thier site will let u do AP mode. so far i havent had it reboot when useing wifi tether.
 
I have the same issue with the screenshots as well. Had to create the folder in my dcim, and then once taken colors off. Using green cyanogen background.

with default screen capture

you select yes for system apk, also select yes to copy files, then it should make a folder called keep, go in and delete resources.arsc, then go back and hit any button and wait for the recompile, i bootlooped also when i tried to cwm flash, so what i had to do was do an adb push, and reboot and worked fine for me "now instead of "roaming indicator off" it says "we have root" which is what i changed it to

so try an adb push into /system/framework and see if that works
 
If anyone would like thier carrier name to be differnet than Boost Mobile i will be glad to edit the files and upload a custom zip file that you can flash.

So, Hroark
Everything on my phone seems too be running great! So, I have a question about your new version vs. dtap2sd! I had a heck of a time getting apps to acknowledge that there was an ext.04 So, will i loose ext04 when i flash your new beta? If so im gonna hang loose for awhile cause i dont feel like going through that again!
Thanks
Ric

If you flash the new beta, do the initial set up like contacts and market then reboot into recovery and install the dtapp2sd after, you will have all your apps back. it bootlooped once then booted giving only a black screen but then I held the power button down rebooted again and all was well. I had to change all the settings back to how I liked them but at least they stayed installed. Hope this helps!

did this work OK in beta 1a?
 
I have been playing around with S2E

I made hot fix A which mounts the sd-ext as ext4 and alows s2e to work properly

I did not mess with apps2SD

I am not sure which is better, but I am going to test s2e for a while

I dont not see why anyone would need both
 
ok can someone help me? i set this up on my cousins phone and he can make calls but when he gets called it rings like 2 or 3x and then goes to voicemail. please and thank u guys

can you give a list of all the setting you changed, and apps you installed

this is the first i am hearing of anyone having this problem

what type of signal are you getting ?

can you make phone calls?

someone mentioned before that they had a problem with it ringing 3 or 4 times on the callers end before the phone actually started to ring on their end

what baseband are you on ed13 or ee14?

I use a2sd beta 4. It mounts Ext4 already and I had settings disappearing and noticeable lag with /data/data on SD with both apps. Moving dalvik works fine. I still have over 100MB internal. Phone is quick.

They are redundant so I suppose it's just preference.

settings r just normal stuff like the lockscreen, launcher, messaging app settings. using a2sd. signal there is pretty good. he can make calls but they just dont come in. and the baseband idk i was there yesterday, and hes not the most technically gifted person so i cant just ask, sorry.

I alway like to start simple and do testing on each step, for instance

Install the Rom and install Gapps, setup voice mail, setup email, setup market account, test phone calls in and out, test text messaging (SMS and MMS), test internet, test email

If everything is working, install one or two apps or make one or two changes, and then test everything again.

If everyhting still works, install one or two apps or make one or two changes and test everything again

If something stoped working figure out what killed it, and research why it would have done so

I am hoping to get an Official status once we work out all the bugs. we are getting closer everyday.

We can use help with making kernels, we have not been able to compile a working kernel from the Samsung source code

We have only been able to mod the ramdisk of the kernel
