You can get a flashlight app from playstore.
Apart from that, you can make one urself, just use a white background and set brightness to full, thats it!
Make sure you backup your contacts or messages if you need them later (i know you will, who doesn't )
First you need to root your device, go to this link to do so: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1415223
then Download your desired Sense 4 rom, its your choice. It will be a zip file.
Place it in your sd-card. It should not be in any folder (i.e. it should be in sdcard's root directory)
Note: the following steps may vary with the Sense 4 rom u are using. These instructions are for the Sense 5 EX rom.
Using the recovery when you rooted (press VolumeDown + Power Key while booting the phone)
Wipe Data/Factory Reset,
Wipe Cache Partition,
Advanced > Wipe Dalvik Cache
Then go to install zip from SD card, choose the downloaded zip. Let it take its own time to install. Once done, restart phone and let the rom take time to start itself.
Viola! its done

Yes you need to wipe cache and dalvik cache from CWM
(Dalvik cache can be wiped from the advanced menu in CWM)
And no you will not lose any data so no need for backup..
Just be sure you dont factory reset by mistake

Did you clear the cache and dalvik cahce after installing the theme or not??
If not try to wipe your cache and dalvik cache right now(no need to install the theme again)
i wipe them only before flashing the zip
is that mean i need to wipe twice for before and after flashing the zip?

Not sure why it's happening
And if you wanna install a custom rom then first upgrade to xxkpq also pls tell me your requirements,as in if you want all the features to work or if you are willing to sacrifice camera and wifi tethering and stuff
And also backup using rom manager is diff from titanium backup.
The rom manager backup is a backup of the whole phone in case flashing goes wrong on the other hand titanium backup is used for backing up apps and the apps data data

.you dure deodex your rom? See in system framework use file explorer. If the odex still there i think you must try deodex once again..try cf root ganes and deodex in cwm..its more easy to do.
Try fix permission in cwm, it can help on fc.

how to deodex in cwm
i saw it in system/framework
all is jar , framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk
no file name with odex
Sent from my GT-I9003 using XDA
i tried this :
double wipe > fix permission > install zip > double wipe again > fix permission
It's not helping
after booting in , still got FC , than I tried again get into CWM to fix permision with no luck

Check in System/Apps (not in framework )
If you have got two types of file i.e. *.odex and *.apk then you are not deodexed
If you have only *.apk then you are deodexed.
To upgrade to xxkpq just download xxkpq from the development section and follow the guide(also given in development section)

ICS installation for HTC Wildfire S

Cud anybody help me with the istallation procedure for the following link..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1683874
Really confused here and wanna install ICS 4.0.4 for my phone :/
0. Make sure you're rooted
1. I think you also need s-off
1.5. Download the ROM file, and the Gapps file
2. Flash a custom recovery, such as ClockWorkMod. The easiest way is to download ROM Manager
3. Boot into that recovery. This can be done by using ROM Manager, or some device specific method (search it)
4. Make a backup (use the volume keys to navigate, select and back buttons are different for each phone, but should be easy to figure out)
5. Clear data/factory reset. OPTIONAL: under advanced clear dalvik cache
6. Install zip from SD card, navigate to the downloaded ROM, and select
7. Let it install, then install zip from SD card again, but this time select the google apps file
8. Reboot and enjoy! First bootup will always take longer than normal.
NOTE: since you do a factory reset, its a good idea to backup your apps with titanium backup, and various other things (like sms and mms) with mybackup root
This is the procedure for flashing any non-Sense (lol) ROM as well
Hope this helps!

I really doubt the Wildfire S to be powerful enough to manage running ICS smoothly.
Anyway, good luck!
Rooting the phone is such a pain in the ass wid the bootloader requiring as many as 14-15 software's installed b4 it can work properly and also crashes everytime!!

It's because signature check is "Enabled".You have to boot into clockworkmood then choose "Install zip from sdcard",then "Toggle signature verification".After choosing this,you will see a message"Signature check: Disabled".Now you can choose zip from sdcard and install it.Enjoy it!

Is it also for OT991D with dual sim? If not, can you change it?
Why there are in any custom Rom differences, because if i look at the Alcatel-Upgrade-Tool (OTA), there is only ONE download for BOTH versions, 991 and 991D ?????
Oh...and how can i change the integrated Holo-Launcher with Go launcher? With normal installation (theni have two launchers) the phone is mega slowly :crying:

As for changing Holo Launcher with Go Launcher,i don't know if it's a good ideea(it "eats" a lot of memory),but if you really want to do it,here are the steps:
1.Firstly,you need link2sd installed
2.Install Go Launcher then go to link2sd
3.Search for Holo Launcher,choose it and then "Actions" ->select "Convert to user application" -> Ok
4.Now search Go Launcher and do the same steps,only that you have to choose "Convert to system application"
5.Go to Holo Launcher and uninstall it
6.Reboot your phone
That's it!You have Go Launcher as system application and main launcher!

I´m very sorry, now i see your answer some days ago,too. Please, do not make stress to you and take your time quietly. Changing the laauncher was very easy, but, as you said, eats a lot of memory, so know i´m using holo again
New problem: I made of course a CWM backup of my phone (Stock ROM rooted with my apps) and never problems with restoring it. But after flashing " gradu CUSTOM ROM v1.0" i decide to wait for "v2 DUAL SIM" and till Gradu2012 has made it, I want to use my old ROM.
So i made the restore with CWM (frst Wipe data/factory reset,and wipe cache partition, of course), but the phone now hangs in a boot-loop and also still has the gradu-boat-animation and Sound, instead of the original one....WHY it´s not possible to recover and how can i repair this- the boot-loop?? (New flashing of V1. is no problem and the phone is booting correct, but i want to use my backup!)
Edit: Now i recover with OTA (One Touch Upgrade Tool) to factory version, root it again and then: no problem to recover with my CWM backup...but no idea, why its not possible after installing the Gradu--ROM????

Wait wait wait...firstly:did you get any error while making bakup before installing gradu CUSTOM ROM ?
And: After wipe factory/cache partition did you select "make backup recovery -> recovery ->yes" ?
For logo image,if it's not working with recovery,you have to flash your logo.img in Flash Tool.
Let me know EXACTLY what doesn't work.

No, and as i said, with the rooted stock Rom installed, the backup can be flashed back without any errors

I don´t know, what you mean- i didn´t made a backup from YOUR ROM. First the phone is in "factory-status", original. Then i´m rooting it, install my apps and change colours, settings, etc. and then I boot into CWM and choose "backup" to make a "home base" with the must-have-apps and settings.
And what ever i do in/with this ROM (i.e. init.d support, install/deinstall apps, changing launcher and so on) i EVER can flash back my backup without errors.
BUT when i flashed YOUR ROM and make the first settings (language, etc.) and then think: "OK, nice, but I need my Dual Sim and therefore want back to my "base", i boot into CWM, then first i choose wipe data/factory reset, then wipe cache partition, then wipe dalvic cache- then i choose "recovery" -> yes and choose my backup file. The recovery process finished without any error, then i choose "reboot system now" and...boooooom....the phone hangs into a boot-loop, the boot-animation and the music starts again and again and again....
Maybe you think: aaah, he has a 991D (Dual Sim), but my ROM is for single Sim....nope, thats nothing to do with it. "Jeffta" made a Custom ROM for Dual Sim very similar to your ROM (two zip files to flash) and when i install this one, test it and want to go back to my base, i have the same failure- bootloop after recover my backup.
At this point there is (for me) no other way than to push the akku out and flash the unrooted original ROM with "Alcatel upgrade tool, root the phone, flash CWM and after all of this, i finally can flash back my "base backup" - the phone then boots normally and after 1 Hour i have back all my apps and settings :crying:
[/QUOTE]For logo image,if it's not working with recovery,you have to flash your logo.img in Flash Tool.[/QUOTE]
While bootloop, i had done this. I flashed back the original logo.img, and after reboot i first see the original picture (this green monster...lol), then starts your bootanimation (like a video) with your music and starts again and again and again......
I hope you understand me/all of this, my english is not so good (Germany).
catdoggy said:

Ok,i really don't know why is this happening.I installed it in my phone and restore my original backup and i don't have any problem(like boot-loop).Anyway,if your phone is working now with your original rom,wait for the one i will make for 991D.
P.S: For changing the bootanimation,you have to install Root Explorer then acces your system files like this: select "system" file -> "media" -> "bootanimation".There you have to find your original bootanimation.Copy it into your pc,unzip it and check the images you find in file1 and file 2.If it's not your original bootanimation,search it into "custpack" file -> JRD_custres -> "media".Make the same thing like with the other one.If this is your original one,replace the one you have into "system" file with the one you've found in custpack.
Let me know if you succeded.

Yes, my great master, I succeded. Yes, I tried it although I spend hours again to restore first the Alcatel original and then my backup :crying:
BUT its advantage is that I now know a trick to speed up the Alcatel Upgrade: This tool downloads directly from the Alcatel server, every time. So i was looking into OTA Dir and there was a "dowwnload" folder...but empty. Ok, i thought, the files were deleted after recovery. So i made a cup of coffee and do the upgrade procedure again and afterr the download, but before flashing, i copied the download folder to another place. :highfive:
And NOW i only need to copy the saved ffiles into OTA dowwnload directory and the tool is upgrading in about 5 minutes, not in 1-2 hours..jeeeeehaaaa
Ok, and now it´s your turn, i have a brain twister for you. The OTA is downloading 10.100 ".bin" files !!!! (yes, ten thousand and one hundred). Are YOU capable to make sweet two zip files (as by your ROM) with these original bin´s, that would make it very easy to recover. Or is there onother way (maybe for me, too) to make these 2 zip files from my running system or my backup??
:good:

Difficulty Installing Custom ROM

I'm having a lot of difficulty installing a new ROM on to my Sidekick 4G. I root my phone using SuperOneClick. After that, I downloaded Quick Boot, Root Browser, and ROM Manager. I use ROM Manager to get a custom recovery image through CWM. With Root Browser, I copy the Recovery file and paste it to /system/bin and overwrite the recovery file that's already in there. I use Quick Boot to reboot into Recovery. This is what I did when I went into Recovery.
1) Reinstall Packages (Stock Recovery)
2) Install zip from SD Card
3) Choose zip from SD Card
4) I picked whatever zip file had the custom ROM on it
After the installation, everything is fine. Its says its successful or completed. But when I reboot it, the screen is stuck on the screen where it says "T-Mobile Sidekick 4G". I've tried different ROMs and they've came out with the same outcome. And after I do install a ROM and fails, I have to go into Download Mode and unroot the phone again. Its getting a bit tedious and annoying.
You did it wrong
Reinstall packages (stock)
Factory reset/ wipe dalvik an cache
Mounts! Make sure system is unmounted
Then install zip
Reboot system
