[ICON] Replace the stock Android browser icon with Chrome - Nexus One Themes and Apps

Ive always found it interesting that Android’s stock browser does not have the Chrome browser icon, seeing as it technically is a mobile version of Chrome. So, I did some quick reversing and took the stock 2.2 browser and replaced the icon. The result is a new Browser.apk, identical to the original stock one except for the changed icon.
To install this, just read on for the full instructions. Note that we will be backing up your stock Browser.apk so you can easily revert the changes. Also note that this requires root.
Firstly, you need the Android SDK, available for Windows, Linux and OSX here
The following instructions are for Linux, but given you have set up the SDK correctly, the instructions are the same regardless of which operating system you use.
Firstly, connect your rooted phone running Android 2.2 to your computer. Then download the new Browser.apk and save it. Note that for some reason, the file name gets changed from Browser.apk to browser.apk when you download, so be sure to rename it.
Open up a terminal and navigate to the directory in which you saved your Browser.apk and then type in the following..
Code:
adb remount
Then we will take a backup of your current Browser.apk.
Code:
adb pull /system/app/Browser.apk Browser.apk.original
Then we will push over the new Browser.apk
Code:
adb push Browser.apk /system/app/Browser.apk
Lastly, we reboot the phone
Code:
adb reboot
After the phone boots back up, you will notice the new icon in your launcher menu. Enjoy!
This was tested and confirmed working on my rooted Nexus One running Modaco's rooted Android 2.2 ROM.

Think whoever moved this misunderstood what this is.. its an app basically..

theres something in market called fake chrome that does just this

Sure, but that wont replace the stock browser icon.. it will just add another one.. so then you have two..

Icon looks great; however, FC's on enom 2.11.3

Ah, Im sorry. I can only confirm that it works on Modaco's rooted stock Android 2.2 ROM. If you want I can fix it for you if you give me your original Browser.apk though..

Very cool. I don't have an N1, but liking the concept!

You don't need to do it, but here's the apk for ref.

Should work on any android phone running 2.2.. But apparently not on all ROMs

This is Adlxmod Froyo for Defy
- Based off Chinese Froyo Motorola release,

- Optionally a dark notification bar patch can be installed, see below.
- Rooted
- Phone can be used with no SIM
- Includes Motoblur, which can be skipped
- Removed Chinese Bloatware
This rom targets people who want to upgrade to 2.2, but still like Motoblur. Performance isn't as good as deblurred rom, but you can OC/UV it to make it perform better (what I do).
Updated:
- Market 2.2.11 + Market Fix (Occidental apps)
- Google Maps 5.0.0
Added:
- Adlx Protips Widget
- Google Apps
- Swype (OEM version from Defy's Eclair rom)
- HTC_IME Keyboard
- Gingerbread Keyboard
- Android Terminal Emulator
- Wireless (Wifi & Bluetooth) Tethering
- Busybox 1.16
- AOSP Email App
- Titanium 3.6.7.1
- LauncherPro 0.8.2
- Tenfar ClockworkMod Recovery
- 3D Gallery (my mod)
- Overclock support (phone won't be OCed by default)
- SetCPU (free from XDA, please donate on the Market)
- Milestone Overclock
- Added in /system/xbin: rwsystem/rosystem, wpa_cli, zipalign, strace, ssh, sqlite3, dexopt-wrapper, tcpdump, fix_permissions, iptables
- Lots of APNs added
- Ad-Blocking
- AOSP Eclair icons
Instructions:
Rom's Nandroid: adlxmod-Defy-Froyo-build05.zip
DarkBar Patch : adlxmod-Defy-Froyo-DarkBarOnly.1-signed.zip
- This Rom is a Nandroid backup of system to be restored over the phone.
- The zip contains:
ZIP:\goapkrev\
\backup\
\date & time\
system.img
nandroid.md5
It has to be unzipped in the root of the SDcard in the exact same structure:
SDCRAD:\goapkrev\
\backup\
\date & time\
system.img
nandroid.md5
If u are not using a Froyo rom yet, start with those steps:
- Flash Chinese Froyo sbf using RSD Lite
- Root using SuperOneClickFor2.1
- Reboot
- Install Tenfar Recovery application
- Run Tenfar Recovery
- Install Recovery
( If you are using already a Froyo rom for Defy, you can jump directly to these steps )
- DISABLE USB Debugging Mode (In Settings / Applications / Developpement)
- Reboot into Recovery
- Restore nandroid
- (Optional) Flash the DarkBar patch
- Wipe All!
- Reboot
Known Issues:
- Gallery 3D will FC if click on the camera button, will fix later
- Swype close word window doesn't show up upon double tap (?!)
- Only English & Chinese locales for the moment
- No PTBR locale in swype. Working on it.
- Camera Flash is sort of working for me, it fires correctly but seems a bit out of sync. Hope you have more luck with that.
Downloading now...will definitely check it out! Thanks.
Here's the problem, I like this ROM, but I hate BLUR, however this rom doesn't have too much blur, and sadly, the reason I can't use this ROM is because EDGE is the only connectivity I get. Also, I'm using another ROM atm and everytime I upgrade to maps 5.0 navigation stops working and maps lags alot. Is that the case here?
EDIT: Also, I like the keyboards and I want skype back, but I can't extract them because it's an .img file and I don't have anything that can view it...therefore i was wondering, coiuld you please upload the swype and HTC IME? I'm on the original USA DEFY and miss swype and I like HTC IME. =[

You can install swype by their official page "http://beta.swype.com/" just register and follow the steps, i had to uninstall and remove some files on the one the comes with Defy but after it i was able to do install it.
I did all of this because i wanted swype in Portuguese, that is not available in the ROM's

That is good and all, but I want the version of Swpe that came with my T-Mobile DEFY, well it's actually my friend's DEFY, he got it yesterday I"m rooting and helping, but anyways he wants the version that came with the phone originally the white skin and all. I know that's possible because this ROM has it, but I"m running a different 2.2 ROM at the moment, and I don't know how to extract the keyboard form this ROM.

You need to uninstall/reinstall ADB or re-read the installation instructions. You have a problem with your environmental variables.
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Howto:_Install_the_Android_SDK
Also that 3G fix only works with Android 2.1 (eclair). You will need to make or get a 3G fix for Android 2.2 (froyo). I'm not sure how that would happen, since you would need some files off of a 2.2 rom that is compatible with US networks, and the only current 2.2 rom is the chinese version. Which is why I haven't tried any of the 2.2 roms yet. I'm just going to wait until something more stable is available.
Hi Adlxdum, I restored your back and your rom is really fast and pretty neatly modded, thank you very much for that. However, immediately after booting, google is restoring all the apps and settings which I had on my previous rom. Including the apps. Hence not much customization seems to be left at the end of this. Is there a file that is somewhere here on either my sd card or inside my phone which I can delete. That way I can enjoy the complete benefits of your rom.
thanks again.
EDIT: Sorry there is an option on froyo for that. I unchecked the "restore backup" option under privacy.
Hey guys, will i be able to put it in top of 2.51?

If you don't use Launcher Pro, you can remove it from /system/app.
Adlxdum, hey Bihariel just put out a camera fix and I used it on your ROM too. It works like a charm all that flash problems and it being unsynchronous is all gone.
I urge all you guys try that fix. It actually works on every ROM of froyo we have here.

Sense 3 Launcher w/Browser Button (not personalize)

HTC is tricky tricky. I thought this was going to be easy, but I had to use every bit of my smali hacking knowledge to kick it's ass.
I used a stock 1.45.401.2 (2.3.4 EU OTA) deodexed Rosie.apk to mod from. So this should work on any new major ROM out there (Revolution HD, Leedroid, InsertCoin, Virtuous, my ROM, etc), and likely even work on the up and comping TMO OTA patch.
I haven't swapped out the image because I don't really have a good browser image to match, so you're stuck with the personalize button picture, unless someone wants to provide me with a good one. I'll swap them out np.

Your modded Rosie is a perfect fit, stock 4x5 app drawer but with Browser right key.
worked perfectly, anyways to assign custom browser? i like maxthon, and i quarantine my stock browser, so unless i give up that ram i cannot use personalize button for my custom browser. (currently) let me know if this is possible, Thanks again (click)
I'd really like this with Virtuous Affinity (sense 3.5) you think it will work of Rosie is different!!

[ROM]DocHoppyRom NEXTBOOK 7 Premium*updated DocHoppyRom Full On Rootv2.0*2/14/2012

I was working on a ICS based hoppy rom. Unfortunately I just had a catastrophic screen failure, apparently when my laptop bag fell last night, it landed with enough force to shatter the screen on my nextbook! Oh well. it may be a while before I can work on anything to further the version I was working on.
FYI- Due to work, my time is very limited for working on the next version of Hoppy Rom. I apologize in advance. The company I work for is
setting up new engine test cells in China, and my self and 2 other people are main points of support! again Sorry for anything new taking so long!
DOCHOPPY HAS BEEN SIGHTED (Other than on a DAYZ server...Stay tuned.
Ok I have decided to pass along what I have been working on.
Warning***
This is for the Nextbook 7 premium ONLY!

CRAMFS STYLE 3.0
AND
FULL ON ROOT v2.0
Disclaimer: I am not responsible for Bricked Tablets. This is known to work on tablet with SN starting with YF1011, and some YF1211.
First you will need to decide which version of the Rom you are going to load. The CRAMFS Style version has SU but you CANNOT write to the /system directory. This is a good all around Rom for those who may need SU but do not need to write to /system.
Full On Root is just that, you have full read write to the /system and can customize the Rom to your hreats content.
HOW TO INSTALL:
TO FLASH CRAMFS STYLE 3.0 Put the UPDATE.IMG file from the Cramfstyle Folder onto your SD card, while tablet is on and follow the on screen instructions.
After running the self extracting Zip file you will have a directory containing the following folders and files.
Drivers (folder)
CramfsStyle(folder)
FullonRoot(folder)
Log(folder)
Language(folder)
Readmefirst.txt
Rkusb.log
RkusbComm.dll
Setting.ini
RK29update.exe
TO FLASH CRAMFS STYLE 3.0 Put the UPDATE.IMG file from the Cramfstyle Folder onto your SD card, while tablet is on and follow the on screen instructions.
To flash Full On ROOT, Plug your nextbook into your PC via usb cable. Turn your nextbook over and with a safety pin or something of similar size, press and hold the reset button for 2 to 3 seconds.
Run the RK29update.exe
Select your Rom files via the boxes containing the .... And navigate to the correct directory for the rom you want to install.
Insert eache file in order according to the update tool.
Clear IDB. (this is like a lowlevel format for the Rom tool:
After the Tool says OK. Select Run. This will begin to load the Rom onto your tablet. It will go through loading and then checking the Rom install.
After the Rom loads and the tool comes back with an OK, patiently wait for the tablet to reboot, and load the new ROM. If the tablet is still connected to the pc via USB when the rom boots it will show the screen allowing you to select weather or not to turn on USB storage. Press the home key and you will be given a choice of Golauncher or Rklauncher. (go lock is a screen lock program.)
Enjoy the Rom!

Features for both Roms:
Complete and correctly working market. It now correctly associates the tablet to your gmail account allowing purchases from market.
Launcher 3.0 as well as Go launcher ex. Launcher 3.0 was pulled from an rk2918 firmware3.0 update and put into this rom.
Google Calendar is now back and working correctly.
Original Email is back and working correctly.
Included Kindle App
Included Estrongs file explorer.
Both have SU though the Cramfs version cannot write to SW.
Removed Apps Added in last release and return to more of a original rom state.
Rom is pretty clean. And seems speedy.

So freaking sweet, great work on RW!
I used Wendal's tool to decompress the cramfs file system.
As for the /system, Because the device uses cramfs, and based on everything I have read, using Wendal's tool to decompress the file system, make the changes, and compress is the only way I can see to be able to
customize the rom for the device. The image is rooted, but after the update.img is compressed, the /system file remains read only. I tested this using root explorer, but anything requiring su works fine. But all hope may not be lost, I was reading on a chumby forum someone suggested using mkfs.jffs to make it writable, but further down it notes that you would need to change the kernel (easy enough to recompile I think), to utilize a different file system. The boot loader would also need to be modified, something I am not ready to try and tackle just yet, I think I would be bricking my nextbook pretty quickly.
It is a start and I am actually learning a lot as I go.
Any thoughts or suggestions are welcome.
I am definitely a long time user / cyanogenmod / aosp fan, but as far as ripping open .img files its definitely new territory, I tried to find an internal SD card like the nook has, to maybe dump it, but I cannot find such a beast. Any progress you make is awesome. So do things like root explorer work, just not on /system due to cramfs?
Correct, root explorer does work, but due to cramfs, it does not allow you to toggle to rw from ro on the /system.
Working on taking apart apk's and customizing and rebuilding and resigning next.
just flashed this rom and it works great!
How would I go about doing a custom boot animation or image?
... even if it means flashing a new rom from clean?
This is great. Thanks. The only question I have is why do I see so few items in Market? Does it have anyhting to do with compatability?
Calendar & Sync Access
First, thank you for your work.
Before I update by Next7P, have you included Google Calendar and Sync access in this update?
I use MyPhoneExplorer and will need calendar sync to work so I can fully use for business.
Thanks.
There is another method to get Google Market on the Next7P, I am a new user so I can not post the link, but google , forums Whirlpool net au archive 1756859
, very easy and works great, but cannot get sync to work.
Dan,
Thanks for the responses!
sgtfoo : You can use Wendal's rk29xx tool to take a copy of my rom image, or the original update downloadable from nextbookusa.com, and
unpack it. You then have access to the system directory in an editable format. you can go into the system folder /system/media and replace the bootanimation.zip file with another one. Just be sure the image format is 480x 800 and that the zip file has 0% compression ratio. After you make the changes, just repack .img file via Wendal's tool and reflash.
dodoclub : Not sure why. I have a full market. You might try clearing the data and cache for the market. My market shows pretty full, I.E. I got 31050 entries when I searched for facebook in the market.
Danno65: Actually that is something I have been working on. I can get my google calendar to sync, currently I am using a calendar from the market called Jorte, which works great, how ever, googles actual calendar.apk closes unexpectedly, I am thinking it is just a version problem with the calendar, but haven't had a lot of time to follow up on it.
FYI here is the link to Wendal's tool, which makes it much easier to work on the update.img file.

Thanks Dochoppy
Got one of these tablets for Christmass to replace an old broken tablet I use for work.
Google hosts our work email, so I still need to get Contacts and Appointments going, but I maybe able to side load them.
Noticed build.prop still has ro.secure=1. This prevents adb from having root access??
Calendar & Sync Access
DocHoppy,
I came across a post where the "Calendar.apk" and "CalendarProvider.apk" files must be in the "system/app" directory to work properly, I tried to copy these files to the above directory but found it to be read/only, will wendalls tool have to be used to get access to the directory?
Also, did you get your google calendars on your desktop to sync with Jorte on the Next7P, I tried but no luck.
Thanks
Dan
The updated image file worked great, thanks again
Thank you so much for your work in building a new rom for this thing. I am anxiously awaiting a new filesystem so we can have true root. How do we manage to recompile the kernel for ext4 support and change the /system fs?
Hello, first of all, thanks for your work!
I am having trouble loading this rom. it says there's an invalid image file in my sd card and if I want to delete.
Now, I don't know if my tablet is a never or older version of what you guys have...
Next7p
2.3.1
kernel: 2.6.32.27
build: v2.0.7.....
my serial is also different from alot..it starts with YF0511
any help or tips?

I would say the serial number would have something to do with it, check on the site for nextbook and see if your serial is in the same *batch* as ours, if the original serial is in a different group, im assuming the hardware may be slightly different? If so, you can always use his method to repack the original with root.
First off I would like to say that I was very pleased when I came across this thread from another one. I haven't flashed this ROM yet, but plan to. Thank you for your work on this as I have been searching the whole internet since I got this thing [4 weeks now] for some sort of custom ROM. It is hard to use this tablet when I have ICS on my Captivate and Vibrant. GB just isn't as cool.
One thing I hope we can work on is root access, so we then can use Titanium Backup. Then we won't have to manually reload everything when new releases come out.
With all that being said, if there is anything I can do to help, I would love to. Like I said, I plan on flashing this probably tomorrow or Tuesday. Thanks again.
For the record, I got titanium backup working fine on this rooted rom. it is capable. You just need to reboot after it restores a backup.
i'm new to android. glad to see rooted rom finally, keep it up!!!
i have a clarification, any improvement in the booting time? my device took 1min30sec (power ON to ready to use, for me, 90sec seem like not fast enough).
Good luck on improving boot time. And besides a tablet is best used when on all the time... try using the suspend state to quickly wake it. We're just starting with the early versions of this rom... give it time to grow.

Build.prop editing
Okay so observation:
Our tablet is not recognized as a "tablet" by the Android market, only and android device.
What prop would I have to edit in order to have us recognized as I tablet. I noticed this when:
I finally managed (through some internet tutorial before this rom) get the market working (the first version, not 3.1+). And when I downloaded apps (I'll use Minecraft Pro as an example) I noticed that the way mine looked and the way the tablet version looked via android market photos and Youtube, ours looks like an enlarged phone version rather than a tablet optimized version. What can I edit to fix this?
Flashed this today... so for it works great. Love the new boot animation. Great work and can not wait for future releases!

One thing that would be great on a future release [not sure if it is possible yet with out r/w], would be a bigger data partition for apps. Moving everything large to the SD is ok, just takes longer to boot those apps. A kernel that would allow voltage control app [like CPU Master] to work also. Just a thought!

Motorola Stock Apps

Hi,
does anyone know where i can get a Full Package of the Original Honeycomb Motorola Stock Apps? Just have a Xoom from a friend here, Flashed ICS from Team Eos, and now he anxious want's the Original Motorola Apps again.
Especially he Stock Filemanager.
Can i download them from anywhere? Or have i to flash back to HC, and backup the apps? If yes, does it work with Titaniumbackup?
So that i can get the clean install-apk's, not the orginial which are integrated into the system?
thanks in advance
Cant help you sorry. But would also like the default File Manager back for posterity. Apparently it is only the non US model that actually cam with the file manager in Honeycomb 3.2 update. US versions never had it and everyone will tell you to download a file manager from the market!! But the stock one was very simple and intuitive so I like it and want it back too.
Hey guys!
I managed to get the file manager that came in the Honeycomb stock motorola, ROM, but I can not install!
I've tried putting the file directly in the "app", I changed the permissions for all possible combinations, and nothing... I've been researching and I think the problem is that such "android manifest" it determines the sdk to target 11 and the ICS is 15 .. but can not edit the xml. I'll leave the apk here, if someone can help: http ://dl. dropbox. com/u/28574144/FileManager. apk
I liked it too, because it was simple. But I then realised it was not tablet optimised, so much slower to navigate.
miss stock apps too

Not sure if anyone would be still interested in this but I got the stock File Manager back!
I've "reseted" my xoom back to 3.0.1 version. The File Manager apk provided wouldn't work but after an update to 3.1 version that nice stock File Manager apk just showed up automatically. No need for apk installation or anything.
Anyway thanks buddy for providing this link!

you may need dialer.apk, phone.apk and maybe contact.apk.
after you move them, set the correct permissions.
reboot.
if that doesn't work, may need to boot into cwm and wipe cache and dalvik.
alternate: you can try using titanium back up..remove those apk and then install the other apks from the myfiles

Ok. cool. But when i move them the phone starts to force close like crazy. I move them directly to /system/app/ and replacing the current apps. I didn't move just those apps tho. I also moved phone_Util.apk and PhoneSetupWizard.apk DialerTabActivity.apk and it worked but when someone would call me it wouldn't ring.
So my question is this. Do I just cut/past the ones you just described above to /system/app/ and then fix permissions ignoring FCs to rw-r-r. And reboot. Is that correct?
Thank you for your time. And quick response.

yeah..just work thru the FC's.
you can also use abd and have no fc issues.
if you are running a rom, you can make those changes to the rom before flashing...either way.
make sure you have a back up of your current set up...zen tool kit allows for a whole rom back up

Well I did it like you said worked thru the force closing and changed the permissions of all 3 apks (Contacts.apk DialerTabActivity.apk, Phone.apk)
to rw- r-- r-- is how each apk's permission were then I rebooted the phone. The volume is up and the ringtone is set. But when I call my phone from a different phone it does not ring, and at the bottom of the screen will blink Unknown between the green and red answering/ignore button on screen., even though above that. The picture for the contact calling the cell phone shows up and so do the Name as inputted into phone contacts. I don't know what i'm doing wrong, please help me out if you know what I am doing wrong. Thank you for your time

Explain to me what you are trying to do.
Which ROM are you currently running, kernel, root?, odex or deodex? Voodoo (ext4) or stock partition?
It is likely that if you are running simple root stock, with non-voodoo stock kernel, and adding a deodex apk to the mix, the stock kernel may not be able to use the deodex files. you may need to change kernel, or re-odex the apk you are trying to port. Remember, most apk's on the rooted stock has 2 file components.
You can try using the stock deodex base dman made as a base of work from there.
If you are only interested in the appearance of the rom, use 7zip and extract the png's from the apk you want and just paste it into the odex system files to get the same look.
In essence, I think you are trying to theme the stock rom or cook your own.

I used Odin to flash Option C found here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1613523
Which is Deodexed / Rooted / With Entropy's Daily Driver Kernel. I don't much about the partition stuff yet. Just started to scratch that surface. But i haven't messed with it. I know I have voodoo lagfix in the RED CWM recovery and it did say something about partition when i flashed the rom I can never understand what the chick says tho. But I have not altered it from the file you can download from that thread above. Except for uninstalling a bunch of stock libs.
I am trying to to get the phone app or the dialer setup i guess you can say from the Aeon Rom 1.4 because I can't figure out how to save the Facebook sharing options. via gallery/share/facebook sharing photos and what not. So I went with the stock rom and flash the Lidroid 14 toggle mod. and removed the logsprovider.apk with the modded one found in the same thread with option c in matter of a fact.
Are you saying though that I can unzip Phone.apk and DialerTabActivity.apk here in my PC and take the png?? and paste them to where exactly? I'm sorry I am trying to learn this stuff and It can be very frustrating at times because I am still super new to putting my own rom together. I just want the AEON rom dialer because it has that convenient message tab next to the call tab in the dialer so I want that and the phone to actually ring when someone calls me too.
Thank you for your patience qkster. I still can't believe that you have replied to my thread yourself. I have followed your posts and threads and advice for a long time. I appreciate all your hard work and what not that make ideas likes this possible. YOU ARE THE MAN!!!! lol.
Thank you for your time I hope this was detailed enough for you to get the idea i'm trying to project.

you are finding out what I consider theory, execution and practice.
in theory, it should work.
execution may not result as intended
practice makes perfect
Couple of issues:
1. you're running jesse's uclb3 rooted with extras. great. it's in an odin format, not a cwm. unfortunately it's not in cwm flashable zip.
you can create one if you google how to make a cwm flashable rom from stock leak.
if you can follow a complex set of instructions, go can try it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1484578
(Jesse also made this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1711375
essentially the some odin option c you used. (he made that in odin for flash via download mode for borked phones)
his ethereal is essentially the same, meant to flash in RED cwm. except for his themes and sound options similar to sgs3.
the odin option c is essentially stock uclb3)
2. before you do anything, make a back up of your current desired setup with zen tool kit - so you can restore in event of boot loops.
3. have the apk with the icons you want on your pc desktop. use 7 zip. double click into the apk. go to res. go to drawable-hdpi. copies all the png. make a new temp folder on your desktop. call it what you want. paste the copied png into the temp folder and look at in windows, with thumbnail options. you will see the icons you want as it may appear in the rom.
4. pull out the apk of the rom you are running. put it on your desktop. look in it also. using 7zip, pull out the res/drawable-hdpi/ folder onto desktop. if you look in it, you will see the other png that you may no longer want. there are several ways to replace the ones you want but it's easier just to pull all the pngs you want into the drawable-hdpi on the desktop and bring the folder over into the apk or just paste them into the apk's /res/drawable-hdpi/
then flash the modded apk or push it into system
Use this for adb..it's easier to use
http://androidforums.com/esteem-all-things-root/517688-adb-android-commander.html
alternatively:
attached is a cwm-flashable shell...study it with 7zip. look at the updater-script. see what it does.
then put the modded apps into the /app folder and flash.
this can be use to flash framework apk/jar and/or system/app apk
test jesse's ethereal and aeon or any other. mix and match. with zen tool kit restore rom, you want play around and restore it back to where you left off
you can also try just pull the aeon apk into the shell and flash it again
remember too that each dev may have different setup or framework that may not let each apk interact correctly...until you have the right combo of files

Thank you very much qkster. I really appreciate your help on this issue. I will be studying these threads and this Android Commander and getting to learn all I can about it. I have followed your posts for awhile and believe you are a very talented developer. I for one appreciate all of your hard work on the Samsung Infuse 4g and insight and advice that you offer.
I'm not gonna just jump right into it, I like to uderstand it all first. But I will definitely be looking this over and trying to absorb it all.
You have kept me busy for probably the next week with this one. Thank You again kind sir. I will let you know in the next day or so to be more realistic as to my progress and if I encounter any problems. Too Bad You don't have a | +1,000,000 THANKS | Button.

you're welcome.
(btw, i thank you for the compliment but i'm not a dev in the true sense. i can re-using and re-applying what is already out there.)
android commander is a graphic ui for adb..easier to use. you'll see that you can pull/push apks much easier, reboot, etc..
as far as learning ...read as much as your brain can handle and google what info you need...that's how most of us picked up this stuff..gl

I used that program you posted "android commander" and extracted a custom Rom to my PC and then using Android Commander I pushed phone.apk dialertab.apk and camera.apk over to my phone and everything it's working fine. Although I had to change permissions to rxw-rxw-r-x
Instead of rw,r r. But it's all doing fine so far. Phone will ring. Camera takes pictures with the power button and I got my dialer tab wanted. Thank you again man. I appreciate you for real.

Hey qkster,
I have one more question if you don't mind. Where would i find the File that contains the png's for the notification bar/toggles? I would like to change that stuff around as well and see if I can change the colors and toggle images? Just need to know where to find the file containing those png's
look in:
systemui
settings
frameworks-res
there are several areas...
check the main xda android theme sections
make a revert or backup..once you start playing with settings, systemui and framework-res, you might experience boot loops
use the cwm-shell i posted. put the original working files in the correct location..call it revert...put the experimental files in another shell copy, and call whatever..
Hey qkster ever since I moved those files. that i posted in my last post my text messaging has been acting up. Every once in awhile. I finally narrowed it down to the problem being if the text is too long it fails to send the text message is there a way to fix this while at the same time keeping my alterations I have made to the rom?
