Just wanted to confirm that the mod for the 14 and 12 toggle quick panels found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1295965
work for the skyrocket. Just follow the instructions for rooted stock odexed ROMS.
Thanks! Just did this and everything seems to work fine.
Note that this also replaces AT&T's 4G icon with LTE and up/down arrows in the status bar.
Worked fine. Kept getting a FC though upon replacing the systemui file so I'd recommend people do that last and then quickly rename the .odex file and reboot. Either way, upon reboot all was good.
Sucess! Nice!
Need some help here, did you guys flash the mods via ,cwm, then you used root explorer to move the files? Or you just moved the files and renamed them and rebooted? Thanks in advanced...

Just extract the files and move them to the appropriate folders with root explorer, then reboot. No CWM needed

Hopefully it replaces it with another LTE icon and not a 3.5G one?
Just to report on my findings...
The mod worked well but I did find one discrepancy. When connecting a USB cable to the device and choosing "USB mass storage" the Green Droid that's usually there now is not there. It just says "Connect USB storage" in gray and underneath that it says "Set" in white. This "Set" dialogue is just that and not a button.
Can anyone else confirm this same result? Or did I do something wrong?
---------- Post added at 05:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:03 PM ----------
Tried to push the files again... same result. Not a huge deal but really wondering if anyone is experiencing this. I'm on rooted stock.
Anyone? Or else how can I go back to stock?
Hm, you're right. I didn't notice this because I haven't connected it to the computer since I applied it. It seems that this disables all USB connections to your computer accept for allowing you to access the internal and external sd cards. This also seems to only do this in USB debug mode. Taking it out of USB debug mode will only let it charge when plugged into the computer.
Did you backup the files that the new ones replaced? Just take out the new files and put the old files back and reboot.

It replaces it with LTE and it also switches to H+ when you have 3.5G signal only.
Nandroid backups are your friend friend
I renamed the file as specified in the directions but I did not back it up. I renamed systemui.odex to systemui.odex.Bak. Can I use that .Bak file? If not, would you mind attaching your backup file? I'd like to go back to the stock if possible.
ALSO... when toggling Airplane Mode I see a code at the top of the pull down menu. It says "Via %1$s". Does anyone else get the same result?
Thanks in advance. And yes I am an idiot for not backing the file up.
Yes you can rename the systemui.odex.Bak back to systemui.odex but I think you need the original systemui.apk as well.
I also get the "Via %1$s" text as well.
Would someone be kind enough to attach the original systemui.apk to this thread? I'd greatly appreciate it.
Here you go. Delete the new files you put on there, rename the systemui.odex.Bak back to systemui.odex, reboot, and you should be good to go...hopefully.
I used the "THANKS" button but I really did want to actually say thank you. It worked. There was a little drama during the process but ultimately it worked.
Just for anyone else reading this post, know that when I deleted the lidroid-res.apk (which I deleted first), process after process crashed. The phone was pretty much useless. I rebooted and then was able to rename the the systemui.odex.Bak back to systemui.odex. I pasted the SystemUI.apk, deleted the QuickPanelSettings.apk, rebooted, and now everything seems back to the way it was before the mod.
Lessons learned:
1) Don't 'just' take someone's word for it that a mod is gonna work without a little proof and research.
2) Nandroid backups ARE your friend
3) People here on xda rock.
You're welcome

If you're moving it manually you don't need to do anything with any files in the META-INF. Those are used when flashing the .zip via CWM (which doesn't work for the skyrocket). Just move over the 2-3 files, reboot, and you should be good.

Hello, I seem to be having a problem when I attempt to download update 2.3.3. Whenever I select the link it never works. The ending result is a message saying unsuccessful download. I've tried other websites only to have the same outcome. Here is some info about my phone that may help on the diagnosis. It was sent to samsung for a screen repair and at the time my NS was on 2.3.2. I received that update via ota. When i got it back it from repair it was on 2.3.0 and I believe the bootloader is now unlocked (when i turn it on the lock is unlocked at the bottom of the screen). I got 2.3.1 again ota recent;y and I'm on version GRH78. Thanks for any help you can offer.
I don't understand how you're getting "unsuccessful download." Are you downloading the .zip from your phone?
ya im doing it from my phone. am i way off and i should be using my comp?
That's why.. the browser is made in a way so that you can't download files.
To workaround this, download ASTRO from the market. Open ASTRO, go into preferences and scroll down and check the box "Enable Browser Downloads."
If you don't want to do that.. download it from the computer.
Rename to update.zip (unless its not stock recovery)
Put it on the root of sdcard (/sdcard/)
Unmount
Boot into recovery
Update from update.zip
Done.
Links to 2.3.3 are here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=967953
Press the thanks button if this helped you, its the least you can do
Enjoy.
And if you downloaded from the browser.. use ASTRO (or any file manager) and go into /sdcard/downloads/ and move the .zip to the root of sdcard and rename to update.zip
Cool, thanks. I'm going to give the Astro route a try. I'll post my results.
When I'm in astro and i press the rename button it doesn't seem to do anything. Like it wont let me rename it. Thanks again. and where abouts is that thanks button. It's probably right in front of me.
Is there away to completely delete the file in astro and start over. When i initially was trying to rename the file i hit new folder and named it update.zip. Now that folder seems to be amongst the rest of the those folders i downloaded. will that effect anything. Or if i go the comp way how do i find the internals of my phone (sdcard) to move the file in there. thanks

You don't need to redownload. You're just wasting bandwidth. Use another file manager or mount it via usb and rename to update.zip and move to root of sdcard
To rename:
Long press the zip. Edit. Rename.
Not hard. Just calm down. Its not a race

Using Astro i finally figured out how to rename the file to update.zip but i can't figure out how to put it on the root of my sdcard. I've been long pressing the renamed file and then edit and i press move. It says it's moving the file (no idea where it's going) but I'm not given an option of where to put it.

Long press the .zip -> Edit -> Move -> Press Back [the button on your phone] on the top left (update.zip should be in /mnt/sdcard/download/), go to the point until it says /mnt/sdcard when you're there .. on the top there are a set of buttons.
Paste, Home, Up, Multi,Edit Arrows... press paste
And please give me some thanks. Or I'll stop responding to this :\ its the least you can do for me helping you. Much appreciated.
Sorry on the late thanks. I'd press it twice if i could. Going to give this a try, hope it works Don't mean to break topic but i was wondering if it's ok to do this update recovery process while it's charging via wall socket. Or should recharge and then proceed.

Nope it shouldn't matter. I actually recommend doing the process while its plugged in, especially if its at a low battery percentage rate. Because if its doing this process and your battery is low and it decides to shut off. You might possibly brick your device (speculating).
Not that I'm trying to scare you of bricking your device. Nexus S is pretty secure, haven't heard a single report of a legit brick. It's really hard to brick this phone.
It's official, Currently running 2.3.3!! Thanks a million.. ps. In regards to the discussions involving this update and the screen colors changing. I feel compelled to mention that I prefer the new look, which is very subtle. Whether it's just my specific phone that looks better or my personal preference, the colors are definitely more natural. Thanks again man, peace.

Hey guys! I've been mucking around in a few ROMs lately, and I've found quite a substantial wifi improvement in this-
**If you are running a ROM based on official kj6 you won't see much improvement if at all, as its based on
it. Its mostly for the people who like their pre final roms too much to switch.**
**Users on 2.3.4 and below are reporting boot loop issues after install, I am looking into a resolution. Roms based on 2.3.5 and up should be fine with this! **
Attached will be two zipped files, the .zip is a CWM package, the .7z is a more raw package you can manually push, or insert into a ROM.
CWM: Download the .zip to your SD, Flash like any other package.
Without flashing:
Replace the wifi folder in System/etc with the one in the .7z below. (You could use Root Explorer or Super manager; Thanks nazcalito)
atb1183 said:
in case anyone wants detailed instructions, here's how i did it.
downloaded androzip to extract .7z file.
used ES explorer. root and system access (mount as rw)
rename existing /system/etc/wifi folder to /system/etc/wifi.bk
copy the extracted wifi folder to /system/etc
long press and chose property
change permission to rwx r-x r-x (to match old folder)
unmount system access (in settings menu of ES explorer)
reboot
wifi scanner used to show -95db at far edge of upstairs corner of house. now get -75. similarly for front and back yard
Great work finding this.

Its that simple! I've seen incredible improvements using this with the Octane and BSGS4g ROMs. I typically get ~1-2 bars in my room at home, I've got 4 now. I normally can't even reach the front door at work without dropping wifi, today I was outside about 30 feet from the doors with 2 bars. Just examples. Anyone care to test this out on other ROMs??
Because it is almost a mandatory statement, though EXTREMELY unlikely...
I am not responsible for any damage you may do to your device.
Does this improve kj6? Or just pre final roms that had crap wifi.

Is there a way to apply this to existing installed rom? without having to flash the rom again.

Why would you have to flash the rom again? Just replace the wi fi folder using something like root explorer (costs money) or super manager (free)

I was going to say the same, thanks! ;P
ES file explorer has a root feature in it's settings too
I actually see a big difference with the official kj6 rom. With that said, would I be able to extract the files from that into the other roms? What rom is the wifi based off of that you have here?
If i were to replace this new wifi folder after the changed with my old wifi folder back up will the changes be reversed and do i have to restart after doing this?
I applied your wifi folder (delete and copy) to ICBINB KI3. Wifi now turns on, searches for about 30 seconds, finds nothing, then turns wifi off.
Any ideas?
-before someone trolls, yes there is wifi present.

I was having that issue when I was just copying the contents and pasting it into the file, instead of just dragging and dropping it =X No clue what the crap caused it for me.
Also which method did you do? The flashing or pushing it with an explorer? You may need to reboot after pushing it with an app (Haven't personally tested it that way)

SGT 2 7.0 , rooted it last night with the tutorial here, cm10
Root checker says its good and I can install root apps
I'm dieing to install a custom boot animation and the moving the zip file into system/media folder just isn't working. I believe the other suggestion was to move the zip file, it Root Explorer, into the data/local folder thats not working either
Someone help a poor noob? Hey, I'm not that bad, I got this far on my own
As far as I know, the kernel maker has to support this feature, and it's not in the stock ROM. You have to go CM or similar for this feature.

Sorry, didn't see that. Use ES file explorer for the copying, it has good error messages. Make sure to enable mounting system in ES settings. You may need to download "mount system rw" from Play Store. You could also download Rom Toolbox Pro, which will do it for you, but it costs something like $5.

Okay this could be a couple of things...
First if your new animation is already named bootanimation.zip it won't let you overwrite the existing one. Delete the existing CM10 bootanimation.zip file in the system/media directory. Now you should be able to move the new animation file to the target directory.
If that doesn't work make sure ES File Explorer has the rights to make these changes.
Go to ES File explorer settings.
3rd from the bottom it says root settings.
Click on that and check all 4 things in the next menu.
Super User should prompt you allow access for ES File Explorer. Grant it.
Reboot.
Now you should be able to move the file you want to the media folder in the system partition.
After you put in the new file you may have to update the file permissions as well. I forget what they are supposed to be but I usually just check everything as read/write for all permissions options on bootanimations.
If none of that works...I dunno...come back with more specific errors you are encountering. Specific error messages, etc.
sheesh
I've done every instruction, followed them to the letter and the default boot ani won't even go away although i can find no hint of any boot ani files anywhere. it appears to function as it should, deletes the files, moves the new ones, file permissions are ok... there's just no change whatsoever, it's kind of baffling. my tablet may be possessed by he devil.
Waitwaitwait. You're saying there is NO bootanimation.zip in /system/media and it still has the stock bootanimation? Try doing a system-wide search for bootanimation.zip using CM file manager. If it does come up, note its location. If there is no bootanimation.zip in the correct folder, Android will play one hardcoded into the kernel, an image of flashing "android" text. So if there is no animation in the right place and you still see the stock CM one, you are putting it in the wrong place.
Posted from my Fascinate using XDA Premium
wowzers!
OK, so I realized that I didn't have cm file browser and did a search and finally did the nightly update. What a trip that was. It got stuck on the boot ani and wouldn't shut off or anything so I had to wait for the damn thing to run its battery dead. It starts and definatly has a different ani now. The whole new layout is messing me up bad, took me several hours just to get back online.
I have even more questions now.
BTW I'm on android version 4.1.4 now I believe.
For instance, apparently I still have all my apps installed because if I go to the store it says so and won't let me download them but I can't find them anywhere.
And some how I disabled that bar on the bottom that allows me to go back or switch windows and if I go into a program I can't get out of it because I can't switch windows.
HELP! AAAAAIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEE!
ok
I got the window switcher bar back, it was extended desktop option. Still can't see these apps I supposedly have instslled.
Oops. Sorry about that.

Try using ROM Toolbox Lite, it's a free app. It worked for me.
In Lineage OS 13 it's possible...
Like mentioned above - in LOS 13 from AndroidAndi it's possible to change/overwrite the existing bootanimation.zip contained in system/media. Done here with a nice Aurora Borealis bootanimation

Are you using wireless headphones? I tried all three files and there was no difference. I am connected via apt-x so perhaps the mod only boosts SBC volume and not apt-x? I am not sure.
Ideally I would just like the Bluetooth volume boosted. I don't really need the others. I attached my file. Thanks!

Just make sure the file is the same type...I just uploaded it to dropbox i didn't zip the file i don't believe the file typed changed...As long as the files type is the same,,,MAKE A BACKUP FIRST..then copy or move the file over to where it belongs change permissions and owner then reboot...Should be fine...Im curious if it did change the Bluetooth volume though

Lol. :silly:
The size is different from the default file too however, 98kb vs 158kb. When I click your dropbox link it shows the correct file but when I download it, it's a .txt file. I have a feeling it's going to have the same effect so I'm wary to try again.

I believe I saved your file,ill just zip it for you then extract it..then copy and paste it in the right folder...change permission and owner and reboot...
Question that is strange my file is 158kb in my system/etc. As well? When I extracted your zip that file was smaller for some reason?
Let me confirm..Your on AT&T Samsung note 3 correct? I'll just copy mine straight out of my phone and hopefully change that value that will increase Bluetooth.
Try this one...see if you think you notice a change in Bluetooth volume..if so then I can change it higher.. https://db.tt/RJQTzei4

Ok this time the file is the right size but it still insists on adding .txt. I removed it, copied to the folder and it worked but I don't notice a difference. I am indeed using AT&T note 3 btw.

Thank you for trying. I'm actually ditching the bluetooth headphones because they're not working properly anyway.
Thought i'd put this on it's own thread so it doesn't get lost in the sea of comments where i put it originally. Mods, if this belongs somewhere else please move.
For anyone wanting to change their emoji and not sure if you want to use that switcher app, its very simple. Install ES file explorer (i can't imagine most of you don't already have it) and go to system/fonts and locate "NoToColorEmojii.ttf" and rename it to your liking (i just renamed it with NoToColorEmojii_OLD.ttf). Then download a replacement TTF emoji file, i used this one :

NEW WORKING LINK POSTED
download it and put it in the same folder the old one is in, reboot your phone, and viola, you're good to go.
Hope this helps!
YES! Thank You for doing this.

Can you try that again? I think its just that it looks that way cause you can't preview this file. there should still be a DL button.

No worries, Thanks for even posting/hosting!
Can we have a screenshot for these emojis? Which ones are they even? These are the ones I'm using currently, which are the new Samsung emojis.
Anyone have the Samsung emojis?

Im rooted and still cant edit system files. I re-ran the recowvery script, and when i got to TWRP, I swiped to allow changes to the system partition. Then flashed no-verity-opt-encrypt.zip then flashed SuperSu.
I am certain about root priviliges. SuperSU prompts me when root is required, and I am using a custom rom.
I used a script in the app RomManager to mount system RW to no avail.
I am using ES File Manager. I dont understand this, so any help is appreciated. Thanks

I'm not a noob by any stretch but I'm feeling like one again with this LG stuff so just to clarify this is basically just a guess, but if you're positive you have root access then it sounds like the problem could be with the file explorer you're using. I don't use es file explorer myself so if it is the problem I couldn't tell you why, but I use solid explorer and I haven't had any issues with modifying system files. Anyway just thought I'd throw it out there in case you haven't already tried with a different file explorer. Hope it helps

That's good advice. My first thought exactly. I think the real problem was i had assumed the rom came with Busybox already installed. I installed Busybox when scripts for read/write access wouldnt run in apps that required it. Now things work perfectly.

It's funny because I had a similar problem when I first installed Adaway because it would download the updated host but it kept failing to install, and then it finally dawned on me when I was doing something else that required busybox that it wasn't already installed because for some reason I also had just assumed it was. Anyway I'm glad to hear you got it figured out ?

Okay. I can change the file of the original .tff to *_OLD.tff but cant copy and paste the new one to the /system/fonts directory because its a "read only directory". Yet ES File Explorer says Readable and Writable.
Any ideas i can try?

Try solid explorer.. that's what I use..
So i tried this deal and even after renaming and replacing i get no emogi anymore. Check picture attached. And renaming back old to normal did not help either. I did a factory reset and emoji still missing. Can some help. Thanks
