I changed my font through Rom Toolbox, and now have lost my original stock font. Is anyone able to post the stock fonts? I mistakenly didn't do a back up inside of Rom Toolbox (mainly because I didn't know I could). Perhaps an easy fix would be if someone has Rom Toolbox and hasn't changed their fonts, they could make a backup and send me the back up file. I could then restore through Rom Toolbox. I'd appreciate any help. Thanks!
Just choose stock in rom toolbox

Thanks for the reply. I tried that and thought it didn't look as crisp as it used to. Maybe my imagination?
Stock Font
It is not your imagination. I have the same problem on my Droid RAZR. The "stock" font in the Rom Tool Box is not as clear as the font that came with the device. Additionally, when I first enter Gmail, all the unread messages are bold (as they should be) and read message are not. If I change a message from read to unread ALL of the message become bold. Unlike you, I did do a backup. However, the resulting restore did not fix the font AND it failed during the restoration of the cache leave the internal storage in an unknown state forcing the formatting of internal storage...which wiped all apps that had been move to the SD.
hey i backed up my font but cant seem to find it any idea how i could and install it back

what is voodoo that i should disable ? is there a guide for me ? (i was looking at the guides and couldnt find one that i could understand)
Voodoo is a lagfix thing.. Gets rid of all lag but gb already does that kinda. The mobile data was for froyo only.unless one of the devs put it on for you!
ICBINB is the tweaked version where its a bit smoother! You can also go to the themes and apps forum part and there should be a lil thread there.

Backup the settings but only advanced restore the data and you can remove apps with titanium backup or root explorer

To remove apps you don't want, AKA bloatware, I use "titanium backup" you can get it in the market. I suggest you back up everything first then start removing apps one by one, some apps your phone needs to function properly. Actually the paid version offers a "freeze" feature so you can test which apps you can remove safely first. Hope this helped a little

1. because its just not on the power menu in gb
2. try uot kitchen
3. dont really know
4. Use root explorer, go into /system/app/ find app you want to delete and delete it (titanium backup doesnt work that well for me so this is a sure fire way)
5. just all around smoother

1) I think that's only for Froyo. Nobody did that for GB yet, I believe.
2) Use UOT Kitchen. It's kinda confusing for me, so I never bothered trying...
3) Backup what settings? Your phone settings or your launcher settings? For your phone settings and launcher settings, you can do a backup in CWM. However, you can't do a full backup, because the system can't mount properly. There was someone who mentioned you can flash the Bali 3.3 kernel to create a backup, but I never tried it myself. If you only want to backup launcher settings, most of them have a backup and restore option. Keep in mind that you cannot perform an advanced restore of data from a Froyo ROM onto a GB ROM.
4) Use Titanium Backup to backup, remove, and restore apps.
5) ICBINB is pretty much the smoothest a ROM can get. It's got all the known tweaks built into the ROM, so you just flash and go. Voodoo is a lagfix that speeds up your phone by converting your /system, /data, and /cache to an ext4 file system (the regular is rfs). Having Voodoo fully enabled will make your ROM very fast and smooth. However, there are problems with getting Voodoo to work on GB ROMs, but there are fixes for it. You can search around the forum for that.
I've searched and I cant find an answer. This will help people switching from one custom theme to another, as it seems some themed apks meshing with each other cause random FC's and other assorted problems.
I'm currently on XXKPH rooted deodexed etc (the works)
Your assistance shall be greatly appreciated
mate, the best and the easiest way to do is FIRST MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP WITH A CLEAN DEODEXED ROM, then if u want to restore the original theme go to recovery mode -> backup restore -> advanced restore-> RESTORE SYSTEM.!!!!! and voila ur original theme, status bar system files would be restored!! takes only a min or two and saves a lot of issues and unnecessary headache
Thanks man! Actually I DO have that backup. But that would mean i would have to create separate back ups of all apps/app date, messages, contacts etc to preserve changes made after that initial nandroid backup.
Having said this it would be much easier if maybe someone could kindly upload a purely stock theme in zip format? It would be faster and easier to switch back and forth between themes than to keep restoring backups when trying out new themes.
Hope you understand

here what I do
app&data : titanium backup
contact : just using import contact to sdcard
message : use sms backup/restore apk
Or if you are lazy, You can use the CWM Deodex zip, it has all the stock apps and reverts the phone to stock lolcakes.
Sometimes i use cwm deodex too..it's very handy n time-saving or u can flash nexus v1.1 rom, the theme is stock one n most apps not modified

First, I want to thank SCDevs and xdaid for putting this app out and for continuing development and support. The original thread can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1561729
The app can also be downloaded for free in the Play Store here: http://goo.gl/Zmzmh
May I suggest that you support development of this app by buying the Donate version here: http://goo.gl/SVtyl
What does this app do? This app will make a flashable update.zip of all your apps and their data, /including system apps if you so choose, for you to flash after you complete a full wipe and flash a new rom.
While it is understood that Titanium backup can restore all your apps and data and take a relatively short amount of time to do its job, this app makes it a bit more convenient by allowing you to just flash a zip and be done with it.
Enjoy the app.
I found a bug with the restoration of 2 apps.
Chrome browser
Quickpic
Both apps had to be uninstalled and.reinstalled for them to function. Just a heads up.

Can I do a backup from stock message app and restore to a sense 4.0 text message app?

The stock sense mms.apk? Idk I haven't tried that. Haven't used a pure stock sensation Rom since last July. I'm guessing no since stock is gb and sense 4.0 is ics. You can try it tho. If you want to save your messages just use.sms backup and restore in the Play Store. It's a free app and has always worked for me.
On a side note, I know the stock ics mms.apk DOES work on sense 4.0. I'm using it on OrDroid right now.
Hope that helped. Lmk if I didn't answer your question.
************************************************-
Wait a second... I get it. You can do the backup and restore from one messaging app to another, you just have to use sms backup and restore or a similar app.

I get an error(0) Installation aborted, when flashing the update.zip.
Any thoughts?
Edit: Now i am getting error(7) Something like looking for four found three

Weird. Ok so the way around that is to grab the update-binary from a rom that doesn't use aroma installer (I used aokp when I tested this) and overwrite the one found in data/data/scdev-app2zip/files then make your backup zip. I know that will work.

Hi guys, been using this great phone.for.2 months already. Used a couple of roms in the past but returned to rooted, locked bootloader stock rom with the latest update. I just had a question is it possible to make the settings menu white witout being deodexed? Or at least without modification of system files. Please.note I do not have any sort of recovery installed. Just rooted so I can use greenify and Uninstal bloatware. I really like the white menu, been searching and only foind it in custom.roms. anyway I can do that on stock? thanks in advance. I've decided to.use.stock as I could.find lots.of.bugs.on the.custom roms. Aand.I really like the stock ui. ANY advice?
Hey mate, sorry to inform you but I think you have to deodex. However I think there is another way, I understand you prefer clean stock rom, I can't unlock my bootloader and it is indeed the fastest rom do the following, search on the themes and apps for Honami white settings and you will find a port that even has cpu control.
Go to your apps folder (use root Explorer); delete your settings and settings.odex, and now copy the files you downloaded from the port and copy them with correct permissions. Then reboot and I think you are all done. Also search for an app or way do delete your cache, including dalvik so you avoid errors. I'm thinking about doing this myself so try it and tell me if something went wrong so I can help
Hay all,
I have several questions/issues that i am hoping someone can help with and or point me to the location for the proper help.
First,
original boost mobile galaxy s5, running 4.4 Rom
Flashed OA6 using ODIN to put 5.0 on
flashed CF/root using ODIN to gain root
flashed Philz recovery
At this stage i have a completely stock rom with root access.
Second i dl several custom roms to try including cryogen, metal rom, and unadulterated. I had the same issues with all of them as follows,
*no data when leaving an area where phone is on wifi
*cannot move apps to sd card
*no voice mail notifications
*gps not working
*phone reads lte but no lte speeds
I did a full wipe of cashe/divlsk cashe (however is spelled) and format for new rom. this did not allow the above to work. Had this issue on 2 s5's.
I have tried the 'fixes' that others have suggested to no avail. I have also tried to send the developers some of these questions with no response (i get they are busy).
After repeating this procedure (back to Stock ODIN/CF Root/Philz/new room) over and over with the same results i decided to STOP after flashing Philz
Then I DL-ed 'root app delete' from the play store. Took off all the crap i didn't want.
Flashed volume boost
installed adw launcher
This 'stock' room is the only one i could use where everything was working correctly.
That being said, i would like to have a dark theme for contacts, system ui, settings, etc. Without having to worry about screwing up everything i have set up for the 15th time.
Additionally, i had quick pic installed and a gallery hidden. Now, quick pic not installed and cannot get that gallery to show back up to use the new 'protection mode'. I have check the permissions using root explorer. They are set to rrw for all. I have cleaned cashe and still can get that gallery to show up.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance,
Steve
