[THEME] UPgrade red overload 2.1

*****THIS IS FOR 2.1 ONLY*****
*****YOU MUST BE ROOTED*****
This will theme well over 90% of everything you see that has to do with the android os and blur if its still there.
Download my files here http://www.megaupload.com/?d=59KOD7MS
By downloading this you agree to take full responsibility for the actions you are about to preform.
Original files if needed http://www.megaupload.com/?d=0RNAMSQ3
If you have kousch's recovery installed, make a back up, if not use root explorer and make a back up of the following file.
/system/framework/blur-res.apk
download the other original system files here
Sorry no MM method only terminal emulator, so you have to suffer through typing about 10 lines of commands....
Unzip the entire contents onto your sdcard
open terminal emulator
su
mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
cp /sdcard/Services.jar /system/framework
cp /sdcard/framework-res.apk /system/framework
your phone will auto reboot. If you havent already applied a changed services or framework the boot animation will take a long time. If it by chance freezes, or does the boot sound but never shows the screen do a battery pull.
Once your phone reboots you will see a new lock screen and dark status bar with white font, if this is not the case you need to redo the steps above.
If you have root explorer, long press on the /system folder choose permissions. Make note of what permissions are set, grant everything permission for now. Change this back when your done. Failure to do so may cause an apk to not apply.
If you prefer you can reboot after each line command by simply typing reboot and hitting enter, just to make sure it boots clean, but its really not needed.
Put capitol letters when seen!!!! failure will cause duplicate applications!!!
Dont apply anything blur you deleted and dont want on your phone.
In terminal emulator
su
mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
cp /sdcard/BlurPhone.apk /system/app
cp /sdcard/BlurCalendar.apk /system/app
cp /sdcard/BlurContacts.apk /system/app
cp /sdcard/BlurHome.apk /system/app
cp /sdcard/Browser.apk /system/app
cp /sdcard/Gallery3D.apk /system/app
cp /sdcard/Music.apk /system/app
cp /sdcard/Settings.apk /system/app
this one goes to new directory so pay attention, dont get type happy
cp /sdcard/blur-res.apk /system/framework
now type reboot and hit enter
phone may or may not have an extended boot.
If you use handcent and want it themed, uninstall your old one
su
mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
cp /sdcard/com.handcent.nextsms.apk /system/app
mount -o ro,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
reboot
Enjoy

I learned a lot from looking at how everyone else themed to get ideas for mine.
all images came from google searches. Then edited as needed.
reserved for me
please wait... an operator will be with you shortly...
Whens the download going to be up?
Ok. Now that i reverted to stock i can't get my themed google maps to install.... sucks. Also my themed launcher pro keeps my registation code. So if i release that its stealing. I will work on these two tonight and see what i can do.
Either way, a dl will be posted in the morning.
Sorry

Maybe try re-signing it then install via adb install command as per the the autosign.bat method in my other post.

No sir. But you have rom manager and haven't switched to 2.2?

[Q] Please help, I was trying to change the fonts and screwed my phone.

I need some help please, my phone wont boot and is stuck at the M logo. I am using dexters ROM with its patch. I wanted to change the android font from the standard droidsans to the Ubuntu font. I downloaded the ttf's from the ubuntu website and started looking on how to go about it.
So after searching the internet, I saw most people were doing it using adb push to replace the fonts in the /system folder. First problem that I encountered was adb not working, but after updating my $PATH to add platform tools it started working. After that when I tried the push command it said the /system was read only. I followed these instructons to make the /system folder read/write.
adb shell
$ su
# mount
# # mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock7 /system
After this I did:
mv /system/fonts/DroidSans.ttf /system/fonts/DroidSans_org.ttf
# exit
$ exit
I tried to adb push the fonts but they permission was denied. I them removed the original fonts and thats when the screen went black. I did adb reboot and now the phone wont go past the M logo. Went into normal recovery using the camera, media and power keys. Did a factory reset. Still stuck. I have no idea wtf I did, I just usually follow instructions and everything is fine dunno what happened this time. I dont know how to go back into open recovery and flash the rom again. Any help would be appretiated. Thanks!
You should be able to get into openrecovery by pressing and holding the volume up key while powering on.
Thank you! It worked now to get around to fixing this Thanks again

If you have adb installed then it is easy...!

adb remount
If it doesn't work
Code:
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /system /system

[Completed] [Q] Lenovo Tab Bricked (Due to deodexing)

So I was trying to deodex my stock rom (my tab is rooted: ICS 4.0.4), I followed this commands using adb to deodex my stock rom (this commands are from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2374008):
adb
shellsu
stop
mount -o rw,remount /system/ /system/
cp /sdcard/done_app/* /system/app/
rm /system/app/*.odex
cp /sdcard/done_frame/* /system/framework/
rm /system/framework/*.odex
mount -o ro,remount /system/ /system/
reboot
I assume that my stock rom is deodexed. After I did all these commands using adb, I rebooted my tab and it got stuck in the boot logo (the lenovo logo after the boot animation), It doesnt turn off when it comes to the boot logo (I discharge it to turn it off). I can enter recovery mode (stock recovery 3e). Ive tried wiping data and factory reset, wipe cache partition, sideload a custom rom(i cant find stock rom for my model)(installation aborted bec i have stock recovery).
Ive tried doing this to odex my system: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2390162 , but I dont know how to do it since I cant connect to adb due to being stuck in boot logo.
My Tablet Specs:
Model: Lenovo A7-50 A3500-HV 7inch Tablet
OS: Android ICS 4.0.4 Rooted (Stock Rom from Manufacturer)
Recovery: Stock Recovery 3e
CPU: MTK 8382 QC 1.3GHz
I just want to be able to use my tablet again. How will I fix it? Unbrick it? I cant find any other solutions, the last solution I thought of is to ask here in xda. Please help mee! Thanks in advance
Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. It sounds like to me that you need to find the stock firmware and flash it. I've found this which may be the best place to ask if anyone with your device knows where to find it, http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/lenovo-a3500hv-root-cwm-flashtool-t2899844
Good luck!

my device is
htc one s ver s4(1500 mhz procesor) cid HTC_Y13
i unlocked bootloader, rooted and have SUser permision(i think) and didn't do anything else except backup withTWRP(Team Win Recovery Project) , but every time i tried to edit default.xml or HTC__Y13.xml in
/system/customize/CID/
or with adb or copying with app root browser
it edit the files (open and chek) but when i restart the device nothing stays, it revert to original state .
So i cant have more languages then before, i'm missing some that are not listed.

so i'm running out of ideas.
i dont want to use app MoreLocale 2
is the solution different rom or what?
i dont want to mess a lot with the phone which is from my older Neighbour who need Serbian language, or Croatian not listed in device setup
so please help or give me the link to solution , i search the last 3 hrs on the web but cant find
cant the factory reset done by TWRP be the problem or not.
before i reset i pull the htc__y13 file and it is edited( so i know a copied it on right place, i also do remount with ro which is not described in tut. but also without efect
i found this elsewhere
Not all phones and versions of android have things mounted the same.
Limiting option when remounting would be best.
Simply change ro to rw and add the remount option
# mount -o rw,remount /system
Once you are done making changes, you should remount with the original readonly.
# mount -o ro,remount /system
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
but still with no efect
and i also cant find bak file after reset from tut thanks to CVAngelo
Code:
adb shell
su (tap "grant access" on your htc screen)
mount -o remount,rw /system
mv /system/customize/CID/default.xml /system/customize/CID/[U]default.xml.bak[/U]
cat /sdcard/your_cid.xml > /system/customize/CID/default.xml
exit
exit
its like there is a backup which overwrite everything i do to system folder ?????
