[Q] Does anybody know how to delete the grayed out att apn? - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

Does anybody know how to delete the greyed out att apn? apn backup and restore wont do it even if you set it as system app. Is it maybe just a file somewhere? I am running 1.85 rooted unlocked. Thanks!

I think if you add a new apn, and set the apn type to "*", you can select the new one then delete the locked Att one.

Doesn't work. Also, APN Backup/Restore won't work because the One X is on ICS.

Why did you make 2 thread with the same question?

Root and delete it from the telephony database using sqlite editor. Why do you care if it's there anyways?

Htc one x AT&T FM Radio

I have an htc one x AT&T unrooted phone
I was wondering is there any FM Radio apks that work with the htc one x AT&T version that do not require data connection.
Thanks
Clean ROM has this enabled.
You are going to need to be rooted to make this happen. Pretty sure of that.

This is correct. I'll have to find it when I get to work, but there is a thread around here that provides a set of deodexed apks. All you need to do is get the FM radio apk from that zip file, put it in /system/app, and change permissions to rw-r--r--. Worked for me.
--------------------------EDIT----------------------------
Apk can be found in this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25636866&postcount=2
You don't need the Fm Radio Service apk, it's already on the phone.
(Rooted Stock 1.85)
You need root and you need to be deodexed. Full thread here:

Similar info to the previous response, just the thread specific to the FM radio mod.

You don't actually need to be deodexed if you just place the FM apk in system/app.
(I know that's what the instructions say, but I haven't deodexed and it works fine)

Thanks for the clarification.
Thanks for all help, but for some reason whenever I do root it doesnt work and it says permission denied and waiting for phone to reboot.
Need more details. What firmware version, and what root method?
I have the 1.85.502.3 att version, with root method one click root.
Whenever i try it and do the reboot thing if there is an error it always says waiting for phone to reboot and permission denied.
How many times have you tried? I know it sometimes takes several tries, and you have to set the clock on the phone a day or 2 ahead each time you try.
I haven't used the 1.85 root method myself (rooted back on 1.73). So you'll likely get more experienced help asking on the thread for that root method.
be sure usb debugging is on otherwise i'm pretty sure that the commands sent won't work on the phone, such as reboot, etc
Can you use this in plane mode?
Mine will not work unless I have data + wifi enabled.
nvm I just got it to work, I did it manually and got it rooted.
Thanks for help guys.

Depends on what app you are using to copy the files. On Root Explorer, there should be a button at to of the screen to mount the directory as R/W. ES File Explorer, I think you have to hit menu, than "mount as root" or something like that. Then copy the FM radio files, and long press on each file to change permissions.
I did all of that but it still doesn't work.
How do you get to mount as root. I transferred files over but it still doesn't work.

To mount the file system in ES go to settings and at the bottom you will need to click on root explorer then mount accept that then click on the option below it "Mount File System"
Side note: I did all the requested things and am still unable to install the HTC FM widget from the earlier posting. just says install failed or cannot install, something like that. But I am using CleanRom, maybe its not meant for that?? Not sure I even need the FM widget but I don't think CleanRom comes with a widget, just the icon.

how to remove the firmware update notfication?

i am on ics and want to stay on ics for personsl reasons, i am rooted, is there registry files or files on the tablet that i can modify to remove the notfication? i did a quick google search but the solution was for phones (remove the battery) you can't remove battery on a tablet so i have to use something else to remove the notfication.
it installed the jellybean update to memory (400mb) so i want to remove those files too, i hope someone can help me in this situation!

To remove the notification go to settings/application manager/all/scroll down to software update and disable it.
yeah i found the process in titanium backup and permently disabled it, i am trying to find out where the update has been installed so i can remove that too.

If you have ES File explorer and have all the root permissions checked for the app,I think you could do a search for it if you know what it was called?Or maybe an advanced search in ESF by date?

How do you know it even downloaded? If it downloaded I think it would apply the update immediately.Check in your about settings maybe it is already running the update.OTA updates won't delete your settings or apps or anything like that.

no, it never installed only downloaded because it prompt me to install the update then gave me a option to remind later and then stayed in my notification bar.
Hopefully someone will be able to figure it out. Afraid I'm out of suggestions.

Try the DiskUsage app - it may show you where your 400Mb update is hiding.

that didn't work, but i did use a program called file explorer fx and went into this folder here:
root/cache/fota
the file is called "update.zip" long pressed on the file and selected details, it was 400mb, deleted it after that.

They way I install these are
1) name the app you're replacing ie. MMS.apk to MMS.apk.bak , also do the same for the matching odex file
2) copy the inverted app to system/ app and change permissions to rw-r-r
3) reboot
Note: may not work with jcases method of gaining root, my boot loader is unlocked

thanks for this! Though I can't seem to get Gmail to install.. how did you go about getting rid of the system app? Titatium Backup doesn't seem to be doing the trick for me...
I haven't even begun to try any ones that require recovery.. just rooted my X and can't quite figure out to get into recovery easily.. is it as as simple as using Quick Boot? anyway to tell if it's in recovery without ADB?
thanks!

I deleted it with an app like titanium backup. After that you just need to reboot your phone and installed the inverted APK and all is well.
This method works for just about all the system apps. Just remember to Make a backup before you start cutting away.

yep Email didn't work.
Unfortunately I stopped using Blackout apps because of a bug. Every time I would install any Blackout apps, my Hangouts would develop a weird scrolling bug (even if I didn't install blackout hangouts at all). On normal Hangouts when you type a message and send it, it should scroll to the very bottom. But when mine was bugged, it never scrolled after I typed a message, unless someone replied. I could scroll manually but still, drove me nuts. Reinstalling hangouts and it's lib dependance didn't fix it. Reverting blackout apps didn't fix it either. Tried wiping cache, dalvik, wiping hangouts data, nothing. I had to do RSD Lite complete clean flash to make it work properly again.
I really wish I could have them on, if it weren't for the hangouts bug.
Anybody find a dark MMS apk that still retains the square chat bubbles that the stock one has? I played around with every theme option for this one and I couldn't get it to match the stock app.

It's not the same.
So, is there any way to do this on a verizon one (locked bootloader)? In my attempt to install the blacked out mms, I tried flashing the zip from stock recovery, but it failed to verify. Tried installing the Mms.apk from the zip via adb and pm, and it said INSTALL_FAILED_NO_CERTIFICATES
so then I signed it with a key as per android doc, and then I got INSTALL_FAILED_UID_CHANGED. so i figured out it was because the /data/data/com.android.mms was still hanging around. removed that, tried again and got INSTALL_FAILED_DEXOPT. That's where i stopped.
I'm starting to think i'll have to wait till there's safestrap for moto x. If not then let me know what i need to do!

Just manually install it with any root explorer but before you replace your existing MMS apk , rename it to MMS.apk.bak. Change permission to rw-r-r and reboot.

Can you explain what you mean by "manually install it" ? If you mean clicking the apk file and and hitting install, that doesn't work for me. from Root Browser, with system mounted as read write, it just says "App did not install"
If I just copy to /system/app and change permissions, it doesn't actually install it. it's not listed as an app in my applications.
I did figure out that I can restore the titanium backup by mounting /system as read write and restoring the backup, so i have my messaging back, just really want to get blacked out working!
EDIT: another thing I tried was replacing the apk file in the titanium backup with the blacked out apk. That also did not work. Titanium backup just sits there spinning with "restoring app"

Any chance you're using jcase's root method? You use any root file explorer , copy the MMS apk , go to system/app and change the existing MMS.app to MMS.apk.bak and also the odex mms file, then copy the inverted mms .apk and change the permissions to rw-r-r

Okay, tried your way. It doesn't matter whether I remove Mms.apk, rename it to Mms.apk.bak, or straight overwrite it with the other. Every time the original Mms.apk leaves the /system/app folder, it is removed from the list of installed apps. The Messaging app literally disappears off the screen.

Deleted AT&T APNs But Cant Add Another

Sorry, but I've been searching everywhere to try and fix this but ive hit a wall. I have an AT&T MB865 and could not seem to change the APN settings or add any new APNs. The AT&T stock loaded APNs have been locked and uneditable. There was and still is NO OPTION to add a new APN.
I had trouble rooting this phone but just managed yesterday after doing a factory reset and used the one click root. I've installed root explorer, titanium back up, apn backup and restor, busy box along with super user and can get to the directories well enough.
i tried using APN back up & restore, but couldn't seem to add an APN or delete and APN even after using super user to give it system application status. I still get the error message stating that Android 4.0+ does not allow 3rd party applications to access APN settings.
In any case, i thought i would try to manually delete the existing APNs and managed to get into data > data> com.android.providers.telephony > databases and deleted all of the files in there per another thread. The APNs disappeared but there is STILL NO OPTION to add a new APN.
I am trying to load Straight Talk APNs in order to get data access. I can make calls, send regular texts, but cannot use data or send MMS.
Any help in getting proper APNs added and data working would be greatly appreciated.

Fix Data Connection on Fulmics G3 ATT??

Today I flashed the new Fulmics update for my D850. Now, my data connection does not work, but my data (4G) does not. I suspect it has something to do with the APN. The APN is set to ATT Nextgenphone in the hidden menu, but I dont know how to change it. I did a clean flash of the ROM and even did another clean flash after I realized there was an issue. How do I fix it?

For some reason, I think because of Fulmics, it says No APNs and I cant add a new one. Apparently you can add them through the hidden menu but I haven't figured out how to edit the APN that is shown in the hidden menu.
I have the d850 model as well & had zero data nor could I edit or add an APN when I flashed fulmics 6.0. The dev then added a flashable file in the thread (post #15743) that fixes data.

I added an apn and still have no data. I like this Rom but they need a fix stat!
There's a specific patch in the fulmics app for the d850 that fixes the data problem.
To fix the problem you should go to the app fullmics hub.
Afther thath choose the option fixes.
When you get enter in this option you should choose the option D850-Mobile Data Fix
And it will start to download.
You have to memorize where is the file and lather enter into recovery and flash this file.
Dont forget the wipe to get the fix witouth other troubles
