[Q] ota 2.2 to 2.2 deodeoxed?

Could it be done? Or will I get stuck in a boot loop? Well I have my x deoxed but I can't seem to install any transparent notification vbar. I did that ultimate 2.2.2 and manually installed the done file. And also did that service transparent fix so im not sure if I should have left the service jar alone or not. Any help be nice.

CM 6.0.2 stock kernel flash

Hey,
Does anyone know where I can get a flashable stock kernel ?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App

Do you have a nandroid? You can restore the boot.img but you may need to copy over the wi-fi module also.

Hey,
Yes, I do. I did that and wifi did not work. Where is the kernel module for wifi located?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App

I don't know where to get the kernel that comes with CM6, but I've been using the inc-test2 kernel from here: http://koush.tandtgaming.com/htc/inc/ for a while and been very happy with it. That's one of Koush's mirrors, BTW, so no fear about loading it onto your phone.

Thanks, ill give it a shot.

You should be fine with the instructions from wiki.

Thanx man!

Another option if you don't mind manually flashing via fastboot (and assuming your bootloader is unlocked) is to grab the Nexus One system image from developer.htc.com

HotSpot hack

Is there a trick to install the hacked HotSpot? It keeps saying "Not Installed". I am stock rooted.

Edit : disregard, I must be tired. I don't even know I tried to read the op lol.
Thanks E4gN.

If your trying to install it like a normal .apk its not going to work. You have to move it to system\app and set the right permissions
Sent from my Mikrunny 4g using XDA App

What are the correct permissions may I ask? I have friend that just rooted her phone and wants the hotspot hack instead of wifi tether. Are the permissions the same as others, need to be inverted "7"?
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium

I believe, if it goes in /system/app , as noob stated, then permissions will be rw-r-r. Same as other apks in system/app.

No, no, no, no....if you are not using a rooted custom ROM.
The hotspot hack(s) will only work on deodexed ROMs which you must flash through recovery. Since stock ROM is odexed, the only way you will receive the hotspot hack other than using the wifi tether app is to flash a rooted custom (possibly rooted stock) ROM which is deodexed, which most of them are.

The hotspot hack works on odexed roms check out the classic it only comes odexed and has hotspot working u can do anything odexed u can deodexed now a days

Ok, 1 odexed ROM. I still have never seen a hotspot hack that wasn't part of a custom ROM, unless I've missed it somewhere, and have never found one for stock ROM, unless it was a custom rooted stock ROM.

Ummm try looking there are modded hotspots to oush to your rom with instructions all over the dev section
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium

I've always just flashed a rom that has hacked hotspot baked in. It's never caused any problems. I used it as my ISP for an entire summer with no issues.

Ok, so I'm rooted with superuser. How do I set those permissions when it put it in the system/app folder?

It's much easier to either use the wifi tether app or just flash a rooted ROM with the hotspot already hacked, since every hotspot hack I ever did needed to be done in a CUSTOM ROM anyway.
Also, that system/app thing (with the rw-r--r-- permissions) will install the app, but will not hack it into working, tried that about a year ago.

Can I use the cm10.1 message apk on a stock rooted Nexus 4?

I want to keep my Nexus stock but I really like the text message app from cm. Is there a way to use that one instead of the stock message app? I'm assuming I just have to remove the stock app and then replace it with the cm one right?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium

Yup. Replace and set permissions. Reboot
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus

Replace it in root explorer.

Yes, just use any file manager with root access and replace it and then give correct permission (rwx-r--r-- I believe)
Also I highly advise you to make a copy of the stock app and place it somewhere in the phone, just in case.
ALSO if you're odexed, this might now work as it also needs odex file and if you are odexed and replaced the app, you might get into the bootloop I think. Never tried it on odexed ROMs, but I think that's what happens

I'm using stock. I'm not sure if stock is odexed. How do I get the app? Do I just unzip a cm update zip?

Did you do flash any ROM? If not, you have odexed ROM. Make sure to make a nandroid backup before doing this as I believe you might get into the bootloop.
You can easily get the app by doing that.

All ive done with the phone is unlock the bootloader and root it. So your saying that I should install a CWM and do a nandroid? Won't installing that wipe my phone?

No. Before you screw with anything in system, make a backup. If you break something, a simple restore will fix it.
The cm message app is system/app/messaging.apk. Extract it from the cm zip and follow the directions above to install it.

You won't go into a boot loop, only thing that will happen is either the Mms.apk won't show up in the launcher or it'll FC. Sometimes, using the newest one from nightlies will cause FC. One has been posted in the apps section that works and has what you're looking for. Its better to use any root explorer app and copy it to /system/apps and fix permissions. And like someone said, make a copy of your original Mms.apk and Mms.odex files to your phone..
Sent from my Nexus 4

If you're just stock rooted, you'll have to go in and re-install the messaging app after every reboot because the stock uses the .odex files to create the mms app, but there is a stock, deodexed, rooted ROM here, and you can just load the CM10.1 MMS into it and it'll work fine. That's what I did

Or you could check out Glowfly on the play store.
It's a pop-up notification app with quick reply support.
Made the same recommendation in a similar thread in the Themes and Apps section. I'm not affiliated with the devs. Just wanted to show support for a good app.

anyone know if this app changes the orienation of your photos from landscape to portrait? This seemed to be a bug on all roms using this apk on my old Galaxy s2.
