small mod request - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am running this stock, rooted, deodexed rom.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1830122
The only mod or mods I would like is the extended power controls (I think that's what they would be called anyway) and maybe some quick settings in my notification menu... I am really not sure if those thinsgs would be part of the same modification or not since they both seem to add buttons/settings to a menu.
I like the option to reboot the tablet or boot into recovery when you hold the power button. Does anyone know if this is an easy mod to accomplish or if there is a download with just this mod? I didn't see anything doing a quick search in the development section.
I really don't want all the customizations that come with the roms that seem to be available. I just want a stock experience but with those minor conveniences.
Thanks.

Does what you want without any modifications. Just click the button and select what you want to do.

[Q] Boot Menu Mod for MyTouch

Does anyone know how to add the following:
"Reboot"
"Reboot Recovery"
To the power menu for MyTouch?
I've looked on Google and the XDA forum for a long time and was only able to find hacks for Captivate, Fascinate, and other phones but MyTouch. I've tried their instructions, but the lines of code are completely different.
I'm currently running the TMUS rom (in signature), and don't want to switch to the Cyanogen Mod. I love the speed that rom has without all of the extra features of Cyanogen.
Please let me know if you know anything, or could point me in the right direction.
I can baksmali, smali, edit framework-res.apk, just need the instructions somewhere... :\
Thanks!

Noob Here Needing Major Help! Unrooting and Rooting

Okay, so I have rooted my Droid eris several times and have downloaded and installed kaosfroyo, vanilla, and plain Jane. I have reverted back to the "stock" Rom with this program on the computer. I have clockwork mod on this because i have seen this name in the text while it installed. So now I think I'm on the stock but I'm not fully sure. I want to unroot this phone completely and make it back to how it was when you would open up a brand new box. Then i was to go through and install the, in your opinion, the best rom out there. Now for the probem, when I go to install a new Rom, I turn off the phone completely, hold down volume down and end buttons, then when the menu comes up I push up on the volume button and i get the picture of an Eris with a red triangle and an exclamation point. That disables me from doing anything. It does the same thing when I turn the phone off and hold volume up with the end button. To fix it, I just turn off the phone and let it boot up normal. Is there any fix for this? Please keep in mind that i am a super dummy when it comes to this stuff so I don't fully understand the technical terms and would appreciate explanations.
Thank you so much for your time and help.

By program on the computer do you mean you ran the ruu from verizon to put the stock software back on the phone? If that's the case I beleive you have probably unrooted the phone and will need to re root. I may be wrong but I think the ruu also flashes the original recovery which is why your not able to boot into it.

I would assume that's what it was. I know it is rooted now because i went through this process to root it after i ran tht program. I don't remember what one it was specifically however i know it had a progress bar on the top right while it installed and had the screen of holding down volume and end button to turn on the phone.
if you are rooted then under your program list you should have superuser permissions icon .. if you dont then you may still be rooted but not likely .. if you do not see that, you can simply go to the market and download a program for root users only and if it doesnt work on your phone then you know you are not rooted .. happy hunting

Even if you re rooted afterwards you may need to reinstall recovery...i reccomend you use amons recovery. You can find directions in one of the how-to root threads around here.

[Q] CM7 Screenshot on power menu to rooted stock 2.3.4

Hello,
If someone could please let me know which files need to be replaced on the rooted stock version of 2.3.4 to have the screenshot function (CMScreenshot) added to the power menu?
On newer versions of CyanogenMod the function is accessed by holding down the power button and pressing screenshot from the menu there. I really like the functionality of that as opposed to using apps like Screenshot It.
Thanks for any help.

i doubt it would happen for stock 2.3.4, since CM7 and the stock are two totally different roms with different files and etc.

Advanced Power Menu for rooted Note 3 ?

Hi,
I flashed the odexed version of the advanced power menu for the Nexus 7:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2380413
But the power menu still is stock with no change. Any ideas how to make this working for the N900-4.3 odexed stock rom?
Thanks.
Wrong forum, this should be in Q&A.
But to answer your question someone would need to make changes to the (don't quote me on this it's been awhile since I've done any "hacking" in Android) framework.res.apk, and the android.policy.jar in the ROM your running for the changes to work.
Give it time, it will show up sooner or later.

Custom Rom download

I'm new to Samsung, so I'm not familiar with their menus. So this may be a simple answer.
When I hold the volume down button and the fingerprint scanner button and the power button, all at the same time. After about 45 seconds I get a menu with the option to install a custom Rom or not.
What can I do from here? Obviously download a rom. But from where and how does it install? What else can I install besides a rom?
Thanks

That my friend is download mode also called Odin mode due to the use of the Odin app you need to use to install system image files. Once you have you phone connected to your computer you need to open the Odin on it. Then you can install recoveries and factory firmwares. Usually custom roms are flashed from the recovery usually a custom one i.e. TWRP or Clockwork Mod. Although before all that can happen you would need root the device first which would probably trip knox. That will break Samsung Pay and is unreversible. At this point I don't know if there a root method for this device yet. There is talk about that bootloader being locked which a problem. I hope this answers your question.
Okay. That's like the HTC feature. But the menu just looks different. We used to be able to flash ROMs in img format by placing them on the SD card and booting like that. It would search the SD card before boot. If it found an img file it would try and install it.
Thanks I thought it might be something different.
