Is there a way to remove this after being rooted?
I would also like to know this.

I also, its very annoying seeing that pop up.
Jcase, is this something that you might have work on ?
Yes, easy cheesy, using root explorer:
Delete or move or follow file CDROM.ISO
Can be found in /system/etc/CDROM.ISO
More importantly, all of you should also disable usb autoplay on your pcs. That's a popular malware attack vector these days.

This file is nowhere to be found. I searched the whole device and it didn't find anything, any thing else it may be named? There isn't even an ISO file in the etc folder.

Hi All,
I used unrevoked to root my Aria but it looks like my default.prop still has ro.secure=1. This means that I can't use adb to enable install_non_market_apps under settings.db. Adb apparently won't run as root unless I have ro.secure=0.
It seems like setting ro.secure=0 is quite a complex process that involves recreating my boot img file, so I'd prefer to avoid this if possible...
Just started learning about all this stuff, this is my first android phone. Any help is most appreciated, thanks!
another way to edit settings.db
If you have SQlite Administrator (http://sqliteadmin.orbmu2k.de/) Windows link attached, you can just edit the settings.db file like any other database. Pretty easy to do and minimizes the effect of fat fingers..
Cool, thanks for the link. I'm assuming I need to get the file off the phone first though, right? No way to edit it directly?
Correct, follow the instructions in Workaround for Fixing 'Unsupported Sources', but use SQlite instead of the dos commands.
Thanks again, this all worked great! If anybody has trouble copying settings.db, I managed to browse to and copy the file using Root Explorer.

Alright, I have the HTC_IME.apk directly from http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1035327
Tried to throw it on my atrix (rooted with sideloading enabled of course) and when I tried to install it it says:
Parse error: There is a problem parsing the package.
I've been trying to figure out a solution for a while now, but I am not quite sure where to start. Any help?
Is it a signing issue, or is there something I can do? I know I'm a noob. I don't even need an answer, just point me where to get started, besides "google" cause I got that far .

I'm pretty sure its one of the ones you dont need to install, just place in the /system file and it should be recognized, just make sure the permissions are set correctly (to rw-r-r)

rootexplorer can do both, it's not free but its fairly inexpensive and well worth the change for how good a tool it is.

Thank you, it still didn't work yet, but I have a place to start . Love the HTC_IME and qHD screen of the atrix, hopefully I can make them love eachother or something.
Try putting it in the /system/app folder, set permissions to rw-r-r, then reboot for good measure.

This is just the plain CRT effect. No custom roms, no pre-made files or anything. (You need root)
I've searched for this on XDA, Google, other forums etc. but I couldn't find it.
It always showed up ROMs including this feature, not the actual feature itself
DO A BACKUP BEFORE EDITING ANY FILES!
Also, you need root
1. Pull framework-res.apk from the /system/framework/ folder via ADB (Alternate way below*)
2. Decompile framework-res.apk with APKTool/APK Manager (Whatever you prefer..)
3. Navigate to /res/values/ and open the bools.xml file with Notepad++ (Notepad works too )
4. Search for "config_animateScreenLights" and change the "true" to "false".
5. Save, and compile the file. Open the fresh-compiled file and copy resources.arsc to the original apk. (Overwrite the existing one)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Transfer the framework-res.apk file back to your phone, and then switch it with the original one
You must reboot to make it work!
*If you don't know how to push/pull files via adb, you can use Root Explorer and copy it to the /sdcard/ folder, then transfer it to your PC.
If you switch it back with root explorer, programs will start to force close. Just reboot and you'll be fine

Would you like to explain step 5 a bit further? I'm a bit confused. I'm using apk manager and it asks me a bunch of things and you don't tell me where to overwrite the arsc-file, etc.

Ah, so sorry.
Open the original framework-res with WinRar. And do the same with the modified. In there you'll see the resources.arsc file
If you don't know how to use APK Manager, use google.
Not trying to be rude, I'm just in a little hurry
I'll ask a mod later if he can move on of my posts up, and then I can perhaps create a more user friendly guide

I read your thread, and know what you posted.
What I'm saying is that if someone makes the anim for example KF3, it would only take a few seconds to upload so other people could use, while diy CRT anim takes at least 5 mins even if you know what you're doing.

su
mount -o remount,rw /system
mv /sdcard/framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk
Is that what you were asking?

Hmm...I don't have a res/values folder (just res, there is no values). There is also no Books.xml anywhere in the apk. I'm on stock rooted KE7...Is the value somewhere else on my version? Am I doing something wrong?

And you decompiled it right? I know i you were to just open the apk it would have a res but not res/values.
I followed the instructions ... and used APK Manager, I complied, signed, and before i quit it asked me to delete a file...resources.arsc
do i have to do that?
also, i noticed the APK Manager made signed apk of less size as compared to original file
original apk file size = 8.05 mb
complied, signed apk = 5.16 mb
is that normal?

As noted in other Topics, the Goigle Video App checks for SU to detect a Rooted Device. So you just need to simply Rename SU to something else like MU. This process can be annoying and a bit tedious so I decided to automate most of it.
I know it isn't an App (I'll work on that later) but here is a script you can run from a Terminal Emulator.
Just download the script to the root of your SDcard and then run this in Terminal:
Code:
sh /sdcard/googlevideo.sh
It'll Autodetect where SU is and whether you're running the script as Root or not. If you aren't Root it'll inform you whether you need to run "su" or "mu" to get Root. Once Run as Root it'll automatically rename SU as needed.
Download the Script here: http://db.tt/nNy1jCy

If you don't see "Movies" category or the "Videos" app in the New Market here's a Fix.
NOTE: DO NOT USE IF USING OLD MARKET!!
If you have issues return it back to 161!
Root Explorer Method
1. Clear Market data in Application Info
2. Navigate to System folder in Root Explorer and "Mount R/W"
3. Long-press build.prop and "Open in Text Editor"
4. Find "qemu.sf.lcd_density=161" or "ro.sf.lcd_density=161" and change it to 160
5. Reboot
6. Run Market
File Expert Method
1. Clear Market data in Application Info
2. Navigate to /System folder in File Expert
3. Menu-->More-->Mount-->Mount as ReadWrite
4. Copy build.prop to sdcard
5. Press build.prop, Open as Text, Select a Text Editor
6. Find "qemu.sf.lcd_density=161" or "ro.sf.lcd_density=161" and change it to 160, now Save
7. Copy build.prop back to /System, Overwrite when asked
8. Reboot
9. Run Market
This should allow you to see most missing Apps and Access the Movies category.

Why would you bother with scripting this? Just download ften's modded apk here.

I have my custom ringtones that I use, and it's annoying trying to scroll through all the stock ringtones. I have ES File Explorer and when I go to delete all those ringtones says those files can't be deleted? Won't even let me delete that folder as a whole.

It's a root feature isn't it? Try using Root Browser Lite or something that has root access. Not sure if ES does.

I thought he said "custom ringtone" which should be in the user /sdcard/media/ringtones directory.
I don't why he couldn't delete it.
He only wants to use the custom ones. He wants to get rid of the stock ones. Adding a no media would work too.

I must be doing something wrong, can't figure this out. Even the instructions on here and videos online I find seem to be for older version of ES File b/c it looks nothing like mine. They say to go to settings, check off root explorer and check mount file systems.... there's no settings like that in my settings.
There's another option on mine through "fast access" where you click root explorer and gives you options like one key install, mount r/w etc. But not sure, see what you guys say before I play around with it lol.
