Gingerblur help? - Bravo General

How do we port gingerblur since its a backup?
Sent from my MB525 using XDA App

Use CWM and install it as a naindroid backup. Still have to wipe and such. Put the zip file somewhere on your computer and unzip it. Then it goes into clockwork on your sdcard and in the folder backup. The folder you want if you look closley at it is really a date. that's what goes into the folder backup. Then install it like you were going back and installing a backup. Need more help just ask.

Is that OK for the defy rom?
Sent from my MB525 using XDA App

To my knowledge it's not a Defy rom but one for Bravo. It may work on Defy but I don't know if it will or not. I don't even know where the actual rom is that the backup came from. I did try it for about three days but I didn't really click with it. A little too.......underdeveloped?...no....Just too basic for me. I like to mod, and mod, and mod some more. I can't do modding with this one the way I like to. Always have to do a CWM update to mod since I don't have it as a real rom. That help you out any? There's got to be some kind of program or an app that'll take nandroid backups and make them into rom but I woulden't even try to run them on my slooooow a$$ computer.

Well there is a ginger blur ROM in the defy section and I wanted to use it on my bravo but it's a nandroid.

Turn on windows control prompt
Change directory to folder unyaffs is in. (if you check the properties of any file you will see the path to change it to...you can even copy and paste into terminal)
cd \paste path
Then type

I got the ms2ginger 2.1 to load and everything is good except when I try to change files for the camera to work it gets stuck at the m logo. Not sure why though... but other than that the rom is amazing. If anybody can help me get the camera at least partially working please do.

Only the 1.5 version of the HTC_IME keyboard works with the 2.2 ROM. Unfortunately, the voice input does not work since it is only the 1.5 version. This is the version that works.

There are two .apk to install and both are in the zip file... with the time spent posting that question you could have just opened it and found out what was inside
I use ShapeWriter and it works perfectly.

@derekwilkinson - i dont think it was necessary for you to get smart all i did was ask a simple question b/c i didnt know. being the smart ass you seem to be you should have realized i didnt know i was supposed to unzip it until i realized the flash failed and said it wasnt working !
Use a file explorer like Astro to open the .zip. You should get an option to open with app manager (or something along those lines ha ha) and you should be able to install.

pushing necessary lib files will enable farther versions of the IME keyboard to work, you still dont get voice recognition to work but the keyboard is there.

I need a file eost, the normal one

Problem parsing package :/ thanks though
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Just pm'd you with advice and the reason they pulled it from the market is cuz eclair 2.1 is not supported anymore. I used to use odin to go back to stock 2.1 and then i had a Overstock kernel that I used though odin and it would give me cmw .The only thing is that u need to dl to ypur phone the rom u want first,odin overstock kernel .tar (i think)
Download this update.zip file to flash CWR.
Exel, your everywhere man. Ok I have been spoiled by this app in the past, how do I flash it lol ? I went to recovery,but there are only like 3options and flashing a zip is not one of them... I felt like I knew my way around the vibrant until today. I feel like a total noob
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I think it's called reinstall packages in the recovery and it might take a few tries for it to stick
Ill try it a few more times, place the file in DCIM correct?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
No onto SD..
Edit have u tried rom toolbox...
Also I pm d u with more advice
That may have been the problem on my 1st try. But SD seems to be the external
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
No u have internal and external sds.unless u have a Vib 4g which only has external. Internal is where u have all ur files e.g. dcim, android ,data,download, etc.paste it onto that so u have a file called update.zip along with all those before mentioned files

AOKP ROM usually has this as an option (not sure if it's in there yet--they're still on build 1, officially).
Thanks! Do you know if there is a stand alone hack for it?

Thanks for the link, that was helpful!
How i do it..
you must have root .
Copy the system ui.apk out and save it to your desktop ( do not move it)
open the file in 7 zip... browse to the folder that has the .png files you want to change.. (DO NOT UNZIP OR EXTRACT)
Copy the dpi folder your making changes to the .png files within.. to a new folder .
Edit the .png files.. (you can also edit xml. notepad++ (use caution..)
I use photo shop and paint shop pro to edit the files..
Open the original system ui file up.. browse back to the directory where the folder you copied out is at .. DO NOT UNZIP OR EXTRACT
PAST THE Edited file back into the zip...
push it back to your tablet .
using file manager put it back in the system/app folder where you found it..
YOUR TABLET WILL CRASH WHEN YOU SAVE IT HERE ( THIS IS EXPECTED ..) REBOOT WITH HOLDING THE POWER BUTTON..
YOUR tablet will reboot showing the changes you have made. If you mess up you can adb push the unmodified system ui back and reboot .
This is a very dirty quick how to hope its understandable..
good luck
Thanks for that but I did it using metamorph like the link says.

Nandroid is the backup you make through recovery
Okay. Well i have searched around several times and i can't seem to fine anything that on resizing CMs nav bar.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
You can't change it from within CM, but you can flash different mods in recovery (like the one posted above) to change it manually.
Ill be honest if You dont know what a nandroid is you may want to take some time and do some basic research before you end up bricking your phone. Messing with the OS of a device is NOT fool proof. Things can go wrong and then you are stuck with a non working device that you cant return.
Ok just learned what nandroid is and so i guess the next step is to nandroid backup my phone and then flash the mod from the link right?

Yep. And if something goes wrong after flashing the mod (systemui crashing, bootloop, etc) just restore the nandroid.

You probably didnt do anything wrong, its just that the mod didnt work lol.
Try out this tutorial. It should work, but its a bit of work.
These are the lines that you have to change:
Code:
<dimen name="navigation_bar_height">[COLOR="Red"]38.0[/COLOR]dip</dimen>
<dimen name="navigation_bar_height_landscape">[COLOR="red"]38.0[/COLOR]dip</dimen>
<dimen name="navigation_bar_width">[COLOR="red"]38.0[/COLOR]dip</dimen>

That's odd. It was just working fine...and now it says account suspended .
Anyways this is basically what you have to do(may require some other searching):
-navigate to system/framework and copy the framework-res.apk to your computer
-decompile framework-res.apk
-in the decompiled folder navigate to /res/values/ and open the file named dimens.xml in a text editor
-edit the lines that I posted above to your liking
-recompile framework-res.apk and push it back to the phone. Also make sure the permissions are set to rw-r-r

Sorry typo, by the way thx for all your help so far. I have edited my framework nav bar to 36 but i dont know how to replace my original framework.

you should try a rom with more control built in like aokp, slim, or pa if you want to change stuff more and dont quite know how to mod system files correctly
anyway, heres what i found with a quick google: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2159270

-Make a nandroid backup just in case
-Download an root file manager. I would recommend root explorer (paid), but there are other free ones like es file explorer.
-Copy the framework-res.apk from your computer to your phone. (just use the usb cable and transfer it over using MTP)
-Open the root file manager and copy the framework-res.apk from where you put it
-Navigate to system/framework and rename the existing framework-res.apk to framework-res.apk.bak
-Paste the new framework-res.apk
-Long press the new framework-res.apk and go to permissions and change them to rw-r-r
-reboot
yep I do that but as soon as I get done renaming framework.apk.bak the phone restarts and goes into boot loop.
I reflash CM10.1 and nandroid backup and everything is fine again. then I tryed just replacing framework but same thing happens.
ohh and mbucks911 the reason why I dont use AOKP is becasue my battery life with AOKP is terrible it causes my phone to run at around 38c which is warm enough to make my hands sweat and my battery drains 10% for every 10mins my screen is on. when I use CM my phone barely gets over 30c and operates around 27c for every and 10% of my battery thats almost 2 hours of sot thats why i am trying to stick with CM.

Try using adb to push it.
Code:
adb remount
