date and time problem!! - Captivate General

iam on phoenix 4.5 rom with glitterballs 1.28OC kernel...the problem i find is whenever i click on automatic time update the timezone shifts to "gmt+0000" but the time in my phone shows correctly..but the problem starts when someone messages me..as iam in india when someone messages me the timezone gets converted to GMT+ 5.30 in the message time stamp and the messages are in wierd order...and when i remove that tick mark of "automatic time update" and change the timezone again to GMT+ 5.30 and set time according to my watch,tv or something there's some seconds of gap occuring which still makes other messages go below mine or above mine!...please help me with this problem!

Mmm.. India's timezone IS +5:30 UTC, so your settings are fine..
I had the same issue a long time ago, but with Captivate's stock ROMs based ROMs.. (Like old Cognitions)..
I fixed it replacing the SMS app, named Mms.apk
It's located at /system/app/Mms.apk
Try this:
-Download the Mms.apk that i've attached
-Conect your phone to your PC with Debug enabled
-Open CMD and:
Code:
adb push x:\z\Mms.apk /system/app/Mms.apk
Where x is your drive letter, and z is the location of the Mms.apk you downloaded..
If you have Root Explorer, just copy it to your SDCard, mount system as r/w, remove Mms.apk from /system/app/, and copy the downloaded one to /system/app/
The Mms.apk that i posted is an AOSP one.. I don't have any other, but you can try to download another rom and extract the Mms.apk you want..

[Q] ***pushing framework-res.apk help***

I edit the png files in the zip. Change the zip back to apk.
c:\>android\tools\adb push c:\framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk
360 kb/s (4756622 bytes in 12.879s)
so no errors. shows just as successful as pulling the file
upon reboot, none of my changes appear.
If the permissions were incorrect, wouldn't i get an error specifying so?
How would i allow the system framework-res.apk to have the correct perms?
I even did this over again just incase i forgot something. Making sure the files were infact changed and stored back into the apk.
Just changing the battery and bottom of pulldown menu.
Any ideas?

Just my thoughts on this, maybe it helps you:
1. You could have changed the wrong png. Change something that you recognize to make sure it isnt that. I don't know how likely that is but the .apk I've messed with had some unused .png's.
2. The first time I ever messed with one I had a problem with it not reflecting my changes in text color. After a long time of frustration I zipaligned to go back to my previous .apk then it showed the changes.
3. Zipalign... unless you do so, you'll have a big performance hit by having Android extract everything form the .apk (and the framework-res is a relatively big one) as it is not optimized. It could also, as in my case be the answer to your problem.

[Q] accidently deleted systemui.apk file, no notifications at all

hye i have a infuse 4g, and i recently downloaded root explorer after rooting my phone and i installed the systemUI.apk from the system/app folder and it took the status bar away and i thought it was cool for a bit but i noticed i have no notifications at all not even for calls, and so i deleted the systemUI. but it did not help, can someone please help me, email me at [email protected]
Extract it from the ROM you flashed, and copy back to /system/app folder, and reboot.
Next time on, when playing with system files, rename them to .bak, instead of deleting.
And if you did this on stock, you should just flash back to stock with a one-click.
any rom you do this with just re flash the same some to fix it

[Q] Modding SystemUI.apk, Stock Buttons

Ok well I don't like the default Asus buttons so I decided to get this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1120014
That was on the stock rom. I just flashed the Revolver rom however and noticed the icons were back to normal so I went through the process in the link like before however this time my wallpaper disappeared along with the navbar. I looked in Root Explorer and SystemUI was only a couple of kbs in size so obviously it got corrupted. I kept trying this method with the same result.
How else could I go about getting those buttons? Do I have to mod the SystemUI file manually and put them in, if so, how?
EDIT: Solved it. For anyone else experiencing issues with Metamorph, check out ZipThemer.
I manually add them from the linux command line. You have to use the update command to add them to the zip/apk. Don't sign the new apk after adding them.
unzip -l SystemUI.apk - look in the res folders
zip -ur SystemUI.apk res/blah/blah
for that last line, I just have a res/ directory with all the files that I want to replace in the proper subdirectories.
Good luck! use zip --help or unzip --help if you get stuck.

If your (alarm) clock isn't working with CM11 Experimental

Hi there,
I had problems to use the DeskClock.apk in cm-11-20131203-EXPERIMENTAL-mmmmm....chocolate_selinuxon-apexqtmo-45.zip.
But I really like this app for my daily alarms.
So I checked the log for this apk (with SystemTunerPro). There seems to be a problem with android.database.sqlite:
Code:
SQLiteException: Can't downgrade database from version 11 to 10
My solution: Download the official nightly cm-11-20131210-NIGHTLY-apexqtmo.zip; go to /system/app/; delete or rename DeskClock.apk; copy the same apk out of the zip into the folder; set the rights to 644 and reboot.
Worked for me - maybe for you too.

Recent apps fix?

I downloaded Sac's v2 ROM and I got used to the Recent apps where it usually is, my question is, is there anyway to flash a zip file or replace a file in order to achieve the stock button functions? I flashed his "hold home for recents" but its not the same as I'm used to.
You can take the android.policy.jar from system>framework in v1 and swap it and all buttons will go back to normal. (change permissions and such of course when replacing any system files)
I swapped the android.policy.jar files the other day, and as a result the phone just wouldn't boot. I'm guessing this is due to not setting permissions. How should permissions be set for the new file when it is swapped? And in addition, should permissions for other files placed in system be set the same exact way (for future reference)? I know how to change them, but do not know how they should be or why they should be set a certain way

The folder is set to rw-r-r- but there is a new flashable zip just posted in the sac23 thread
Not sure but I replaced the Android.policy.jar file from v1 to v2, worked like a charm. Took maybe 5 to 6 minuted to boot.
