Dumb Question ? - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
got a question:
Where can i find the source for the security pattern of my cm7.2 ?
A few friends of mine always try to find out my pattern of my security lock. After 5 try's you have to wait. but instead of waiting i wanted to open like a picture of something really diskusting ore something like that. So i thought i change the code a little. But my big problem is, that i never programmed for a android device before.
any help ?
greets Max
Ps: Sorry for the bad english :/

That's a bit too much help you're asking for there. Not easy modding system files, you need to know a lot about the internals of android, and I am not aware of any app that let's you do this

Thanks
Okey
but at least some hints how to start ?
like starting programming apk's ?
or how to get into the system files
Btw: i dont want a app to do this. want to do it by my self

Check out Google, there are hundreds of guides which will help you get started. Best of luck

how to build an app

ok devs or people who know how to build apps.
i would like to become a dev by building apps but iv searched google and xda and i cant find the right answers so i wandered if anybody knows how to build an app for our x8.
if you could give me maybe a step step tutorial on how to build them? sorry if im asking to much but im keen
cheers.
That kind of thread would be pointless cuz there are many types of app eg. Pulse with a clock widget have an entirely different code. Some apps do some things, other apps do other things. It's impossible to have a general or global tutorial of how to make an app.

I've learnt java from tutorials on YouTube and with the right means (Eclipse, SDK and some other stuff) I was able to do it.

Easy way out:
Google App Inventor
AppsGeyser
AndroMo
Conduit Mobile
wix.com ( creates mobile sites)
I know more, but can't think of them.
And I guess you probably want the coding tutorial but I don't know either so.....
Leave a thanks if I helped!

[guide][lesson]how to flash new rom/update

This guide/lesson is for the noobs or others who are imo kinda lazy when it comes down to flashing and or updating roms.
TIP #1:
When flashing a new rom its not required but is STRONGLY RECCOMENDED to do all full fresh clean install from scratch with desired/reccomended ftf.
TIP #2:
UPDATES FOR ROMS. ONLY AND ONLY IF THE ROM CHEF ACTUALLY SPECIFIES A "NO NEED TO WIPE" TYPE OF DEAL IN HIS THREAD THEN JUST DO A FULL WIPE. I understand that sometimes you may not have the time to go through the process but let's look @ this from a devs point of view. The time that you put in to update/flash new roms is only a very small fraction of what devs put in cooking these awesome roms so if you dont have the time and you do decide to go ahead with your own installation method then please report bugs to yourself.
TIP # 3:
If you're scared to loose particular data, apps, contacts, messages well welcome to the wonderful world of android that will solve these potential problems for ya. Here is some apps/tools to get you on your way.
NANDROID BACKUP this tool can be either done via clockworkmod recovery which is embedded in custom kernels or for stock kernel you can use this app. or online backup without even re-booting!This is my main backup tool because it literally backs up your entire phone of the same state and i mean system, data, sd-ext, android.secure, and cache. Pretty cool huh?:highfive:
SMS BACKUP+ This app backs up your sms and call logs!
TITANIUM BACKUP FREE/PRO This app backs up, restores and even auto backup via custom timed schedules all your data/system apps (but i never backup system apps because sometimes there is errors). The pro version imo is the sh!t.
STOCK AUTO SYNC everytime before you about to flash a new rom/update before you even power down your device just make sure you have auto sync ticked either from your settings or notification toggles. just to make sure every last contact, calender date etc... is synced to your google account.
Another tip is to READ THE FULL OP BEFORE DOWNLOADING AND FLASHING ANYTHING. You have to remember that people dont get paid to develope so you never know if its some noob or maybe an ass that uploads stuff with malware or some sh!t. And also the op usually mentions how to install the rom so you should FOLLOW ALL DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS AND NOT YOUR OWN YOU DIDNT DEV THE ROM SO YOU SHOULDNT BE COMMING UP WITH YOUR OWN INSTALATION STEPS AND THEN LATER ON SPAM THE THREAD WITH "THIS DONT WORK, RANDOM REBOOTS" BASICALLY PROBLEMS THAT OTHERS WHO DO FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS DONT HAVE.
SO TO CONCLUDE PLEASE FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS FROM ROM THREAD OR IF YOU HAVE TROUBLES THEN PM ME AND I WILL BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO HELP AMD PLEASE KEEP THE DEV THREADS CLEAN PLEASE!!!!!
Thankyou in advanced guys and happy flashing!

I read this, but it was really hard to get through.
Maybe make a list of things for users to remember so that there are some separate, easy to understand thoughts instead of a block of words.
Also, go easy on the caps lock. I feel like you're yelling at me.
Man u really going all out on this. Anyway mybe u could giv some or color on the important point. Just so people sees it clearly. Lol. As i said quite few many times befor, "people don't read much these days."..
Hey hey hey i did this from xda app haha just to start it off but when i get home i will make a lot more noob friendly. Sorry for caps just cant really do anything else with the app lol.
Will be updated tonight

Actually u CAN. I'm doing this also from an xda premium. Just need to know the xml/html coding. These are the codes that runs on the web that only a computer could understands. So take note. And fyi, my G2JB MOD started on this app. So if i could start a thread using this app, then so can you.

full screen ads on xda?

I don't know if xda has been hacked or if it's something they have agreed to but over the last few weeks anytime I come to this site I get bombarded by ads full screen ones sometimes that force me to either download or go to another site including that dam mobogenie, I kept thinking it must be an app I've downloaded or some kind of malware but after a couple of full wipes including formatting my internal and external as soon as come back to this site it starts again I've tried other sites and the ads don't appear it only happens when I come here! I was wanting to know if this is happening to anyone else or if it's just me? I've also tried different roms but it has the same out come any help with this will be greatly appreciated.
TThanks in advance.
No problem here.

hi ,
yes, i had similar experience, many months back, when i used the relevant free version.of app.
i also found this to happenned on a another very" popular" twitter app ( free ) i had. .
the pop up ad was full page and you could only close it by clicking on x,( in the ad top right corner of ad )
and appeared sometimes even if i had exited, the app.!!
i know it was these apps, as it happened on my then , Note 2 stock rom ( i now have Note 3 ) and Note 8.0 stock rom ,whenever i used the apps ..!!
i unticked "notifications in relevant app ////settings ..application manager ,but it did not help .!!
i uninstalled and it was gone !
i had sinced move on ,and now have the paid version of said apps !! No problems !!
i bought it because i wanted the premiun versions and not because i was " bullied " into it ..!!
i don't mind if app have " Ads "and it is placed discreetly !
but this" full blown ad tactic" ,is low down amateurish and childish !!
i will uninstall it if i was you.!
good luck
Use traptalk app. Much better than xda app and is free. Use Adblock
It used to happen to me add well so I just use tapatalk now. Solved ?

Splurge the 60pence or whatever it is for the premium phone app Or use Tapatalk. -- Not had the issue myself.
I was talking about on the browser by the way... Never used xda app
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
Its happening on the browser not the app sorry I thought I said that, it happens every time I come to this site using the Samsung browser or dolphin. It only happens here though when I move to a different page it stops it only started about 3 weeks ago I think, it hasn't been long. I have tapatalk and the xda app but hardly use them, maybe should start huh! I've been told to try chrome with adblock so I'm hoping that will fix it permanently! Thank you for all the suggestions I do really appreciate it.

Nexus Root Toolkit .tgz v .zip

Hi guys i have spent hours scouring the web on how to flash nexus 4 with [ROM][5.0.2][MAKO OFFICIAL] Resurrection Remix LP v5.3.4 [10/02/15] and I cant seem to be able to do it in a pure way if you know what I mean. Whenever I try to select the factory image for it manually the one I downloaded it is not the right format. My problem is that no one makes their roms in tgz so I cant use the software to flash it.
Edit: If anyone would be kind enough to come on skype with me or teamviewer to walk me through it I would really appreciate it im desperate
Hey I can help you.. Please give the link of the ROM thread and the issue you are facing.. Please be elaborate

Hi I have managed to do it in the end I commend you for responding, but I am facing new issue, I have installed this evil app and I dont know if I need to flash it again or not
Its called the wifikill 2.2 or something like that I cant post the link for the report but I have uploaded it ill pm you the details.
I have decided to run some checks after I realised that the app is not functional, those blogs on google are clever I am hoping im not part of anyone's botnet and also I adblock crashes and on WOMIC my voice keeps appearing static after 5 minutes of chatting so something really is up
