SGS Tools - Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)

just a FYI the SGS tools app which allows you to replace your tw launcher, email, contacts, and gallery app works for our sgs 4G. i have tried em all (upgrade stock apps) and can confirm they are all working. If you want to go back the scripts dont work, but you just need to move the stock apk back from sd>sgstools>xxx.apk into system>app> using root explorer or similar... and it will revert. also the boot up/down sounds can be disabled through the app

If I had to guess the email app on there that is made for the tab will get really buggy when used with exchange. Crazy thing is, it takes a few days to show up. You may have better luck on this device. But my vibrant didn't like it..
Lastly, make back ups of the apps your gonna try and switch using this app. Easiest way titanium backup. That way you get your app back that's optimized for 2.2.1.
Might not make a difference. But never hurts to put a back up on your external

My problemw with titianium backup is that it dosn't actually backup the system apps, just it's data

I just tried to use my FFC after the camera hack & it does not work anymore, it says camera failed. I tried to restore from Titanium and copied the .apk from the sgstool back up with no luck.
Anyone else having the same issue? I just flashed the Krylon's stock + root rom and did a factory reset but the issue is still there. Do you think I can pull the files from a system dump to remedy?

Try flashing the deodexed version 1.9.. when Odin reboots you into factory recovery do the factory reset. And then reboot.

Thanks Aloneinshadow, but I had the dump from a previous post. I pushed datapattern_420sp.yuv & datapattern_front_420sp.yuv to /system/cameradata along with restoring camera.apk & camerafirmware.apk to /system/app and rebooted with no luck. BUT when I ran Tango and used the FFC it worked and fixed my issue. I do not know why but its fixed now. Im never going to use SGSTools again unless its made for KB5.

Ok thank God I was able to revert my camera back, the hacked camera didn't allow me to record videos. Quick question, why is it that our phones don't have autofocus for video recording but all over YouTube there are vibrants that have it?

Thanks for the info. There is a couple versions of this app which one are we referring to in particular?

Mine doesn't have autofocus, it does only for taking pictures but not video....I've tried it soo many times and while recording video the focus never changes, it just stays fixed.

Yes. 100% working. Flashed it several times and its all good.
glad to see you got it going bud.
Thanks. Took me longer than I'd hoped because I was trying to implement an accurate battery mod since its now deodexed, but it kept crashing some system apps. Not sure why yet.

I can help you out with it once the 4G gets here if you want. Right now Im working Black Ice into KB5 so can look into it tomorrow or Friday.
I would appriciate that a lot. I'll keep working on it in the meantime. I'm sure I'm screwing up an XML file somewhere.

Drivesmart is still in the settings and the app is missing. when I tap it it Force Close. is it possible to remove this from setting or add the Drivesmart app back?
If someone can send me the Drivesmart app I can see about adding it back. As for taking it out of the settings, I doubt it.

Don't forget this has a lot of the bloat still in it. You need to uninstall what you don't want via Titanium Backup. For me the size is relatively the same after bloat removal.

Best camera app for CM7 ?

Hey,
The default camera app is not that good in cm7 compared to the stock one.....is there some other camera app that is good to use?
An app that takes high quality pictures like the stock camera app?
Thanks.
That's the only downside of cm7 right now. The stock camera sucks.

The LG stock camera app will not work in CM7. It requires LG framework (If I'm not mistaken) and will just produce a FC. This was being worked on but there has not been any updates on it.

move from sd to phone. reboot. uninstall updates from market. reboot. open market again (i would recommend taking this opportunity to getting the newest market app) and then move your apps (i would recommend link2sd)

Try A factorry reset then advance restor them back if you have a backup and see if that helps. Or just factory reset and restore a couple from the market and reboot to see if the problem persists.

agreed. if you restored from TB, then that is your problem right there. always restore from cwm.
What ROM and kernel are you on? I had that problem with kg6 and Dr.honks kg4 kernel. If you are let me know I might have an idea of what's going on.

@ GDofWR420 Tried that.. i have a back up from the original stock rom that came with the phone.. i tried it and once i flash a rom and i test it again it go's back to the same thing... Thanks though...
@ jager555 TB?.... Ima try the link2sd idea havent tried it yet..
@ farwek well right now im on desexton KG6 but see it doesnt matter which one im on.. i thought it had to the with the kernel and or rom but ive gone back to froyo and the same thing happens... and ive tried ALL the roms in the SGS4G community but it still messes up..
I had this issue on KG6.. From what I've read, I think it has to do with having voodoo enabled on a previous ROM that left an ext4 partition on your SD card. so there may be an old partition still on the SD that wasn't removed properly.
I think you are going to have to back up your SD, do a complete format (or use minitool to remove the partitions), and reflash your phone from stock. I know it's been discussed in the dev section, maybe someone can chime in.
hmmm... i think ima just oding back to stock.. andstart off cleasn.. thanks

here's the newest guide for converting the partitions for GB. He does mention the disappearing apps problem:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1204682
Try this. Odin kg4 leak after that Odin kg6 leak but add the csc file from the kg4. Then use the fugu mod found with the kg4 leak to gain root. After that flash drhonks kernel but font mess with voodoo yet. Update the superuser apk through the market and grab busybox installer to and install busybox. Once you have done that open superuser and you should get a prompt to update su binary update it and boot into recovery and give the ext4 conversion a go. Hope this helps and ill keep checking in on ya till you get it.

Dont lose hope. It is possible to get it all stable just tricky getting it done. The steps I posted above worked twice for me and linda converted on the first try both time. Oh yea and at the end when you enable voodoo font check your mounts just reboot.

Excuse Me!?,
TB is the best root app ever invented. I have used it since its debut, On my HTC DREAM. By the way, I always restore my apps using TB. To fix the problem, Install all your apps via market, open TB, backup all apps. Do Data/Factory Reset, reinstall TB, all is well.

Help get wifi calling app to work

Hey so recently I deleted my wifi calling app and decided that I want it back. I have a titanium backup of it but it won't install it. I searched for the kineto apk and installed that and the app opens but quickly closes after a few seconds.
Does it matter which rom I have? If so I am currently using xboarders tweaked 2.3.3 rom
Thanks

It should be working since that rom had that in it to begin with. you might want to try to fix permissions and wipe cache. If that doesn't work I believe you could just re-flash the rom right over yours. that should re-install the wifi calling.

Can you go into app manager and force close the app, then clear the apps cache. Then go back out and start it up like normal?
Or uninstall and re-install?

If its a absolute "must" that you have this player, try contacting the developer. But with so many music apps out there, I am having a hard time understanding why this is that "must have" app. I was like that with Doubletwist, but I started having some issues on this different device, so I switched. No biggie.
