I had some previous experience with some basic adb stuffs and can you kindly give any instructions on how to pull those files from my device through adb ? Thanks in advance :highfive:
adb
adb device
adb pull "insert file location". You'll want some with root to give you that location unless you know it

You can use solid file manager that has access to view root folders

Yes i'm using solid explorer and know i can browse the root folder using it but the problem is i have no idea where the .hwt file reside in that area. The search feature show up only some font related .hwt files. I think i have to go deeper to find those files by using rooting which i'm not willing to at this moment anyway thanks for the help guys :highfive:

No worries. Someone else on here should have root. If they find where those files are you can pull them with adb regardless if you have root or not
Here it is :
Code:
/data/hw_init/product/region_comm/oversea/themes/

all the stock themes can be downloaded here

I'm still very new to cooking ROMS but I notice that many chefs have changed the software version to say whatever they want i.e "my custom rom 1" how can I do this?
Thanks,

i think everyone knows what i mean
is this something that can only be modified while the rom is being created? I just wondered if you could make it show something simply by mounting the file system with read/write and editing the file after flashing the rom to a phone.

I think you can go into terminal and edit the build.prop manually through there. Otherwise you can just go into the update.zip and edit the build.prop there.
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.

Can you tell me the location of settings.db using Root Explorer?
Check out the "workaround for unsupported sources" thread in this forum. Sorry, would give you a link but I'm using the XDA app and can't find a way to link to threads...

How do u change the boot and the shutdown animation is there any tutorial on this??????
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
I'm pretty much a noob myself, but RootTools app has an option to choose a few diff boot anims. Not sure about shutdowns.
Read read and read. That's how I learned. You need to be rooted, use root explorer (an app) and just push it. Meaning of push, its cut/copy and paste.

Most all of them you flash in clockworkmod.
There is a lot of them in the bible
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991267
tru dat! you got 2 options:
- Flash in CwMRecovery
or
- Push bootanimation.zip into /system/media
Like a kernel or modem, bootanimations do not really require a flash at 100% battery or clearing of settings in CwMRecovery if you choose to flash it. Some bootanimations are not flashable and require you to push them into /system/media. Always read the OP will generally explain if it is flashable or not.
***I highly recommend you push it yourself. Its not hard at all and will allow you to be more familiar with your file system***
- just find the "bootanimation.zip" that you want
- move it to ur phone
tip* i've found i like to archive all bootanimations on my PC for future reference do so or skip this next step
- browse to /system/media/bootanimation.zip(this is your original) copy it to archive
- browse to where you put the bootanimation.zip you want and select "move"
- browse to /system/media/ and select paste
- select replace
- reboot phone and voila! now you have ur new bootanimation and you feel more comfortable moving system files around. Aren't you smart ur mom would be proud. Good luck!

check my post here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1019858
its on shutdown animations.
for boot animations.
its the same method
but the bootanimation is just in the "system/media" folder...called "bootanimation.zip"
It can be taken from any ROM from the "system/media" folder and placed in your "system/media" folder on your phone and your done.
This will make more sense after you read my forementioned post.
::thanks?::
i have tried pushing a bootanimation.zip to both my media folder and local folder and i cant get it to work any help please

did you remember to set permissions to rw-r--r-- before backing out? i usually have to do that when i change boot anims.

Not sure which one you are trying to get on your phone.. Some animations need to be flashed through recovery.
Is there any chance we could get the icons and the clock widget of the Vertu Ti?
That is, if anyone is willing to shell out 5K on a phone just for the sole purpose of extracting .apks from it.
If you guys tell me how I can extract the apks.

If u have a Ti(obviously),then first i think u need to get it Rooted (sometimes stock recovery does it too)in order to extract a widget that came preinstalled,then after u root it,use root explorer to go to system/app and then look out for the widget.apk's ..
Similarly,for the icons,look for the app in system/app(using root explorer, and then copy the .apk to ur sd card,put the file on ur desktop,rename it as a zip file,extract it .
Then go to the folder called res,then drawable-hdpi and all icons will be there in .png format.
But all this is useless if u havent got it rooted,because I think u wouldn't risk to lose warranty on such a phone..
Hope this helps

It helps, though there's no root solution as of now. I don't know where to start for the root, technical support won't help. Neither will the internet. There's already a topic on XDA but no solutions.
I think you don't need root for this.
Enable USB debugging, install phone drivers to your computer, then do adb pull /system/ path-to-dump-folder.
interesting...

I've yet to find appropriate drivers to connect to ADB. Whatever I do the phone also connects the MTP at the same time even if PTP is chosen. Any help would be much appreciated as I'd also like to backup the device via ADB. With the latest updates the phone is now running 4.2.2.
If I am not wrong, Root explorer does work on non-rooted phone.
you can access the /system partition for copying stuffs. (as you can understand without root it will only work in 'read only' mode).
Hi,
I was able to root my Ti using farmaroot just google it fairly simple method. You can also unroot to with this tool which is a plus. But I would like to know how do I access its recovery? Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
Somebody own Vertu here?
You can extract system apps quick and easy, without root, without any risk using this tool: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ext.ui&hl=en

Hi Guys,
Sharing with you how to activate the classic theme from WW Rom on the CN Firmware.
Please note this requires Root.
Download this File to your ROG II.
This is aa ZIP file, DO NOT unpack or mod it. Just download it and keep as is.
Copy the above zip file to the below location using a root explorer / root file manager.
system\etc\AsusTheme\themes

Then set the correct permissions to the file as shown in the last attached image.
Restart your device and check in themes.
Just delete file hidden and reboot
this is great, thanks
can i then use another launcher as default now that i'm rooted? i mean without disabling asus launcher via adb command line and such?

No, As long as the Asus launcher exists in system, it will always take priority over any other launcher installed.
what are the other themes that you have on there?
I only have the light and dark one. It looks like you have 6

Remove that "hidden" file in that folder and if you put the classic theme in it, you will have 6.
None of this worked for me. I am on tencent 12gb with WW and cannot access any of the themes. Any advice?

You need to use root explorer and mount r/o then you can delete it. Not sure why just having regular root sync won't. But in that app specifically it works.

Use esfile explorer. Swipe from lest and click on root explorer on/off option. 6 option will popup, select "mount r/w " option and tick r/w. Done. Now you can delet it.
