Having issues setting custom wallpapers through an AOSP based ROM, I have found the solution. Upload the image(s) to any host. I simply use my G+ account. Access said site using your device (through the browser) and long press your chosen image until the menu comes up. Choose Set As Wallpaper and voila! A full size, non-cropped custom wallpaper on your phone/tablet.

I have a backup phone and I dont remember the PIN I used. I previously rooted the phone and installed an ICS ROM (plus a bunch of apps) so I dont want to wipe the phone and start over. Is there any way for me to bypass the PIN lock? I am hoping that since I rooted it this is possible!

View 2 Replies View RelatedMy Samsung Epic, using Dolphin browser, usually defaults to the mobile version of a website. So if I type in www.abc.com, it will search out m.abc.com. I don't know if it's Android, or Dophin, or just something in the website itself, but it does that. And normally it's right. Sometimes, however, the mobile site is soo dummied down and so useless I want to get to the main site. So how do I do that? It keeps going to the mobile site.

I recently broke my screen and cannot get past the lock screen so I can start my VNC server (to continue using my phone without the screen). I have searched through what seems to be all posts on bypassing pattern lock and I have not been able to succeed yet due to permission denial for super user in ADB, not having sqlite3 on my phone, and not being able to flash anything onto it in recovery mode.

I have a Nuvifone A50 (Garmin-asus), after wiping all data on the device, i can't accept areements, application is crashing and back to step 1.I'm SURE the phone is perfectly working exept this, so if i can bypass this, the phone will work. I tried restoring the .img file, same problem.

Step3 screen.nicow .me/vEVrnJin1g.jpg

And after the force close, back to step 1.I can access the file system via USB, nothing more. I can also dial(and i can call).
What are the differences between RUU and AOSP ROMs?
Am I correct that a RUU rom is a fully stock rom that some devs post with or without root? Like basically the latest version of non OTA for your device?
I feel like this is something basic that I should know but just haven't come across it.
i just my new galaxy nexus and to check my work email (through an app called lotus), it checks my phone to make sure i have a 10char+ complicated password set. as you can imagine, having to enter a 10char+ complicated password everytime you want to get to your phone is annoying. is there a way to bypass this? i am rooted...

View 5 Replies View RelatedI had a Huawei X5, and switched to a Huawei Ascend P1. Both have the same screen dpi, 240 and I have not changed it. However, the P1 has a higher resolution. That is the only difference I can find for this problem.
I can see and install all my apps from google play on the X5, but on the P1 they don't appear. On the web page it says it's incompatible and if I try to install the apk directly, it also does not allow.
What compatibility check is it failing? One example is google googles, I can install it just fine in my 7'' tablet and in my X5, but not in the P1.Is there anything I can do to bypass this check?
Do you think it could be rom related (I use official miui for the P1 and unofficial miui for the X5)?
How To Bypass Android Lock Screen..What You Need:
- Your phone should be registered with a Gmail Account
Instructions:
- Download THIS App From Google Play Store From PC
- Now The App Will Be Installed On Your Registered Phone.
- Now Install Another App (ANY APP) From Play Store.
- Now The App You Just Downloaded Will Run And Screen Lock Will Be Disabled
Notes:
- This application will also run each time the device is booted so you can always bypass the lock screen.
- This application does not remove or reset your pattern/PIN, it only temporarily disables the lock screen so you can access your device and backup your data before resetting it.

If im being honest, Im scared to death of what I might find but also believe its something that needs to be addressed before something even worse happens!

View 9 Replies View RelatedSo two days ago while i was in the gym, i dropped a dumbbell and unfortunately it landed right on my Driod Razr M. So the screen has no functionality what so ever, i cant reset it or anything, broken. It was rooted and I loved all my settings on it. I have a pattern unlock for it and such, however, USB debugging is disabled (worst thing ever, second to it breaking) So i want all of my data off my old phone and into my new one. Is there anyway from my laptop that I can get all of my data off it and onto my new Driod Razr M? Any way i can bypass my pattern lock, and get everything back?

View 6 Replies View RelatedMy company has recently received some new android hardware and has requested that I create a custom operating system for the device. The manufacturer has agreed to provide us with the existing android source, but I have a few questions to get started:
On the following link: [URL] .......
It states that I need to add lines similar to the below to my "51-android.rules" file:"
# adb protocol on maguro/toro (Galaxy Nexus)
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="04e8", ATTR{idProduct}=="6860", MODE="0600", OWNER="<username>"
How do I determine the correct information to use for this process? Should I collect this information with the device connected to a windows PC?
Once connected, I would like to scrap their existing operating system and begin from AOSP source, what information from their original source should I retain (Kernel, bootloader, etc), and what information would I be required to remove to bring in AOSP?
But most seem to be specifying nexus devices, or devices which already have a strong developer backing, neither of which apply to this hardware.

Eclipse is so slow, so im trying to switch to intellij. My question is: how do i add the aosp or cm source to intellij?
I've tryed the same way like in eclipse but it doesn't work.
I have a SGS3, but I'm loving AOSP roms since my SGS2, i'm still on SAMMY roms only for the awesome camera app feautres that I don't want to lose...
so i'm asking to aosp users...do you have a good replacement (with HDR, somethingsimilarto best shot..) for stock camera app? 'cause i don't like very much aosp camera
Add video support to this App? (Crunchyroll)
Would it be too difficult or be a simple mod?
I've just run trough all the setps to be able to build aosp on ubuntu. Currently I'm running a build, looks like it will take a while.
My goal is to build an aosp rom for the samsung galaxy chat, samsung provides downloads for 'platform' and kernel.
My question is, what should I do with the sources of the kernel and the platform, do I need to integrate them into the aosp source?
How does one build a rom with aosp on windows, is it possible to build on a virtual box or something like that?

I decided to make a quick buck off it by selling it online, but the problem is, It comes with pattern lock screen and a combination that I know nothing of.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am working on a project for a school system where they want to used deactivated donated phones in the classroom for WiFi access only.They will be reset to Factory Defaults, so we'll need to get pass the Activation screen.
It will be a variety of phones so that is why I am posting this here.It appears there are several different ways of bypassing the screen.I seriously doubt that they will allow Rooting of the phone, but I will pass it along as a suggestion.
Seems like the most common is the 4 corner clockwise tap. This seems to work for HTC and Motorola.What I cannot find is if this is permanent or not? If the phone Is powered off and then back on, does this have to be done again or is it once and done?I've read both, but without device in hand, I cannot confirm or deny.
Is there a list out there for all the models that support this?Samsung looks like you have to dial *#83786633 But this does not seem like a permanent solution--has to be done every time.Permanent seems to Root and delete or freeze phone.apk or setupwizard.apk?
I can't install many apps on my device (Galaxy Player 5 USA) from the market, it says "Galaxy Player - This item is not compatible with your device".

How can I get the apex wallpaper onto the lock screen?This is a minor annoyance, but is there a way I can theme the top of my phone where it tells me the time/cell signal to look like stock ICS? The touchwiz icons are really big and don't look that great, while taking up a lot of space.

View 2 Replies View Relatedrecently I've been learning more and more about building AOSP builds since I'm not a huge fan of the bloated touchwiz rom's for the Stratosphere. I'm looking more for AOSP roms, like I had when I had the Evo.
1. I have all I need to build Android from source, I have the Android source, and I have sources from Samsung for the Stratosphere. This includes the kernel sources, and platform sources, how do I merge these two together?
2. Do I have to build a kernel when I build the rom, or do I build the kernel seperately?
