To have a white clock you will need to Deodex your phone -

Once the Deodexing is done you can use this link -

cool thanks for the links!

No problem... Once you are deodexed if you want another color clock just let me know and ill make a custom services.jar for you.

How did you root it? i've been trying to figure it out for days.

Lets keep chat to Droid 2.

1. Go to the ROM section, linked here....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=534
2. Ask the same question again.
You'll get more luck in there, and this forum shouldn't be cluttered with stuff that should be in others.
Good luck

Mate - he wants to downgrade! He's already flashed one ROM.
Anyone, please don't encourage him. This forum has enough on it's plate without becoming ROM Dev MkII lol
johncmolyneux, I thought you're more helpful than this.
I downloaded the ROM update from HTC .. I dont like it .. it ruined my phone, I want my original ROM back, is that illegal ?

I AM being helpful. Follow the instructions and you'll get what you need. This is simply the wrong place to post. If we just answer every single post, regardless of what section it's in then the forum would be a massive mess and you'd never be able to follow anything.
How am I not helping you??? After all the help I have given you I'm suprised by that comment.

Thats why I said I always THOUGHT you were more helpful, because you helped me alot before. I was referring to the post where you said "Mate - he wants to downgrade! He's already flashed one ROM.
Anyone, please don't encourage him. This forum has enough on it's plate without becoming ROM Dev MkII lol"
Anyway,
The ROM section is dead, I already tried posting there some questions before, they look for ROM downloads and updates, not for questions.
I posted here because I am desperate, I am struggling from my new ROM update.
If anyone knows what I can use to simply revert back to my previous ROM, ill be very grateful ..
Thank you.
I said not to encourage you as this thread does not belong in this forum. Simple as that.
There's a thread in the ROM forum with official download links. You need that. Just download the one you want and flash it.
But I guess I'm not being helpful now. Thanks a lot.
I guess I understood it in the wrong way then, I owe you an apology Im sorry
Oh no its not that, im just really desperate and my day today wasnt at its best, in a bad mood from other life events haha.
"There's a thread in the ROM forum with official download links. You need that. Just download the one you want and flash it."
Thats all I really needed, thank you very much Disregard what I said earlier, its just me in a bad mood today.
I still luv ya John!

When you signed up, you agreed to a little thing called searching.
Sorry bub, but we do need a little effort on your part before we start helping you out.
After you have searched a little, sure, come back and ask what you need.

Great post to use when rooting for the first time
Thank's guys
This is the only tool you need to root and gain an unlocked bootloader.
http://tau.shadowchild.nl/attn1/
Download the advanced ace hack kit and read its manual. Don't use HTCDEV to unlock your bootloader that will only give you problems later.

You've shown no initiative by searching, the answers are there, its in your interest to find them.

[Q] New S5, best setup to remove bloat, root and sim free

hi guys,
just got today an S5 and quite happy with it so far.
I would like to do few things on it, hope you can suggest me the best way:
- get root (Lollipop 5.0, possibly keeping Knox unaltered)
- remove bloatware (especially my magazine)
- make it sim free, I belive is locked to the operator, got it on contract
can you please recommend what's best for doing those 3 things?
thanks a lot,
Gabrio
how about you read the forum, jesus christ it's right there in front of you.
hello Lingo, thanks for your reply
that is what i have been doing for the past 2-3 hours and because i know it's sometimes confusing, i was asking in advance. May i ask you to not swear with the name of our Lord? it's not pleasing to him and there's no need doing it. thank you

If you really had been looking for the last 2 hours, my dear sir, surely you would have noticed the stickied threads which answer all of your questions. One particular thread will even tell you that these kind of posts don't belong here in "General". Good day to you.
here's a few useful threads to get you started:
General advice: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2700073
How to root: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2696537
If you just want to remove bloat from your current rom, I'd recommend smart debloater: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/development/mod-smart-debloater-t2802034
But if you want a new/customisable rom check out Phoenix rom where you can pick and choose what you flash: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2741302
To make it sim-free, you'll need to get an unlock code either from your network or maybe off somewhere like ebay.
Hope that helps

thanks so much those are really helpful... if you could help me with one more thing which I found and is really off (again on this model)....I would love to edit the SMS_Candy.apk and disable SMS to MMS conversion after 480 chars or tricky it, I remember on my sgs2 I did a mod and basically increased that to "after 99 SMS convert to MMS" which did the trick nicely. I had a look at the files and it seems more complicated on Lollipop 5.0? do you know by chance? thanks a lot!
TBH, most custom roms will have that mod already included, I think phoenix rom has it
