Hi and good morning.
I have seen on the thread, "post your X10 screen" or something like that. And I have seen some that have a different WiFi icon, battery in right corner. How do I change that? Is it custom ROMs or what?
Thanks for all help.

Hi.
See the tutorial link in my signature, it's really quite easy to do.
Do I have to start with ADB for noobs: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=532719 and install Droid Explorer?
And then "Three tutorials for modifying your x10 OS aesthetically" and then: "framework-res Icon Pack (Modding)"?
Thanks
EDIT: Im not getting a notification of Android ADB when i plug in my USB. I have tried to download USBdeview and see if there is HTC Android, but there is not.
I have a Xperia X10i phone and the only thing that is listed is "Sony Ericsson sa0101 ADB Interface Driver" and "Sony Eri Memory Stick USB Device".
When I uninstall ADB Interface driver nothing happens. Just freeze for a couple of seconds but thats it.
Whats wrong?
Can someone help me?

It would be an idea to read the three tutorials yes and the packs are there for you to use when you've learned how to edit apks. If the adb driver is already installed I'm not sure why you're removing it, you need it to use adb.

/edit - I'm a complete idiot
You are using an out of date version of adb...
Download the android sdk and use the new version
I always keep my sdk up to date
Also, USB debugging is selected (forgot to include that )
have you tried to change the drivers manually using device manager on your pc?
the dellsync may have messed them up..
Turns out i'm a complete fool!
I had adb set up so i could run it from anywhere, but it turns out that was pointing to an old adb.exe i forgot i had.
Everything's working fine now, sorry for wasting your time guys (but thanks for your help!)
I can't get adb to work with Streak neither.
and I only have one and updated adb.exe. what version do you have (the version that suppose to work...)?
thanks

2 quick checks
make sure java 6 is installed

for test go in tools folder---ddms and try if your device is connected
cheers
I have "Java version is Version 6 Update 20"
DDMS shows blank.
and device is USB debug enabled
when u click ddms a dos cmd open and it dissappear? am i right
when I click DDMS (from cmd window - in windows XP), the DDMS UI is launched. the cmd window remains.
in the DDMS, I see no device attached. all empty lists and windows.
Have you installed the Dell PC Suite that's on the sdcard? That contains some usb drivers or something. Not sure if it's necessary, but it's worth a try

Win 7 x64
AT&T Xperia X10a
I was trying to root my X10a, using the one click method (X10Root.1.0.8.apk), and got hung up when trying to side load the app. ADB nor SWM could find the device. I finally got ADB to find my device. Here is how I got it to work.
Xperia- have debugging on
- have titanium backup free installed
- have busy body free installed
- do NOT mound SD
- have allow mock locations on
- have stay awake on
PC- have pc companion installed BUT terminate the process
- have the android sdk installed. (when installing I just installed everything)
- have android-sdk_r07-windows folder in C:/
- I changed the folder name above (android-sdk_r07-windows) to sdk
- have X10Root.1.0.8.apk file in C:/
- if google calander sync installed exit it.
With X10 plugged in and all above met.
Open command prompt
Type or copy and paste(if you changed folder name) cd C:\sdk\tools
Hit enter
Type adb kill-server
Hit enter
Type adb shell
Hit enter
Type adb install C:\X10Root.1.0.8.apk
Hit enter
Now the app should be on your phone. I hope this helps some AT&T X10 owners out there. Everyone keep up the good work.
Good info, I bet it will become very usfull to other in case they need to SideLoad. I did mine after 4 hours of time spending and finding the issue couple days ago.
Cheers,
Someone did post a fix for this on a java issue too...I like the adb method though..The sideloader and at&t just don't like each other! Would be awesome if we could use RSDlite to flash it though!
download and install this driver :
http://developer.sonyericsson.com/cws/download/1/825/494/1279522933/X10_drivers.zip
PS : APK files are like setup.exe on wondows... you must to copy it on your X10's SD card, and execute it on the X10, NOT on your PC !!
Thanks to a good link from Vanto to read here is the instructions as to how I got it to work,
This solved it for Winblows 7 64 bit. For others having the same problem on Winblows 7 64 bit (should be the same for 32 bit miuns the X86 Directory)
1. Go into settings on the prime and make sure USB debugging has a check in it in under SYSTEM > Developer options > USB Debugging
2. Plug your prime into your Winblows 7 laptop and let it install its drivers. Open up device manager by going to Start > Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > and click on device manager under devices and printers. If you see at the top of device manager ASUS Android devices and when you expand it you see ASUS Android Composite ADB Interface you already have the ADB drivers installed and can skip down to #6
3. Go to ASUS website and download the USB drivers for the TF201. Download Vipermod Primetime 4.6 here for the ADB drivers http://goo.im/devs/viperboy/Prime/viperMOD_PrimeTime_v4.6.zip then extract the zip file to a normal file. You only need the drivers from the tool.
4. Plug your prime into your Winblows 7 laptop and let it install its drivers. Open up device manager by going to Start > Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > and click on device manager under devices and printers.
5. You should see the prime listed under portable devices. Uninstall the driver then update the driver manually. Browse to the folder you created from the Vipermod primetime zip. Make sure there is a check in check sub folders. Winblows should detect the drivers and then convert the prime to a ASUS Android Device.
6. Go into settings on the prime and make sure there is no check in Launch ASUS Sync under PERSONAL > Accounts & Sync > Launch ASUS Sync
7. Press Control, Shift, Escape at the same time and make sure there are no instances of ASUS Sync or Splashtop runnung in services in Winblows 7.
8. Download and Install the latest Android SDK. I installed all the libraries and such just to be on the safe side. http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
9. DISCONNECT YOUR PRIME FROM THE USB AND REBOOT YOUR PRIME AND YOUR WINBLOWS LAPTOP. After both devices reboot plug in your tablet into your Winblows laptop.
10. Navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools and click on the ADB file. A command prompt will open and spool up a bunch of stuff then close. All the stuff spooling I am assuming was the ADB server starting.
11. Hold down shift then right click inside platform-tools folder and select open command prompt here. You should be in a command prompt window showing the directory C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools
12. type adb devices. You should see your primes serial number pop up.
13. make a test file in the platform-tools directory, i just used a simple text file to test then type:
adb push test.txt /sdcard/
It would be easier to just put the Rom you are going to flash in this directory so when it is time to push the rom it would be:
adb push nameofrom.zip /sdcard/
If SDCARD not recognized try:
adb push nameofrom.zip /system/media/
14. browse to your sdcard and you should see your file there. If you are already in the sdcard folder window on your prime, leave the folder then come back and it should be there.
15. You should be able to push files now after superwiping. You may need to push to /system/media/ if /sdcard/ is not found. Make sure you have all the / in the directory structure when pushing.
16. From inside recovery select install zip from sdcard and browse to the folder you pushed it to then flash away.
If anything seems incorrect or out of order please let me know so I can correct it. If this helps you congrats but if not I'm sorry. This is how I got it to work.
As you have stated that prior to your windows re-install, everything had worked, thus I highly doubt that this could be the issue... but just to double check, you do have usb debugging enabled, right?
If you can, connect your transformer prime, and try executing {install directory}/android/platform-tools/adb.exe -devices and let us know what kind of output you get.

OK looking for a little help here. I am planning on doing the Super mega wipe in the dev section however ADB has not recognized my prime. I wanted to verify I could push to it a test file before I did the wipe. Under device manager it shows the whole Asus ADB interface device and that the device is "working properly" I also have a listing down in portable media devices where it states Transformer TF201. I have disabled Asus sync and do not have splashtop. When I connect my prime I can explore the internal SD and copy files back and forth over USB. I have also installed and updated the latest Android SDK. I am at a total loss here. I recently did a fresh install of windows and beforehand it used to work. Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance :cyclops:

make sure your adb files are the most updated once,
i had this problem before but thats just cause my adb was not updated
I recently battled with this and concluded that adb just doesn't work on Windows 64bit for the TFP. My advice, try to find an XP pc and do it through that. I posted in Prime_Full_Wipe thread in Dev section about this.
Wasted several hours trying to get adb to see the device. Tried so many device drivers.... Latest adb versions etc....

Mine did too when I unlocked but once I had a custom rom on it, it stopped working. I think the driver gets messed up by the custom rom making the pc see the TFP as something different to an Asus TFP.....

The folder you specified doesn't contain a compatible software driver for your device. If the folder contains a driver, make sure it is designed to work with Windows for x64-based systems.

As with any executable in windows, if you are in a different directory than the executable, you either have to provide the full path when executing it, or add the path of the executable to your windows path. This is not something specific to ADB, it is common for any executable in windows.

Hello could anyone please help me with rooting my zoostorm sl8 mini running ICS. I just don't know which rooting program to use and with one will work. I have search the web now for days and cant find anything.
Please Help!
Thanks:good:
Use the Qemu exploit
This can device can be rooted using DoomLords Xperia script. I have ported the script to linux as well for Ubuntu users,
The original script is here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1601038
I haven't tested the Windows script, but I assume it will work as I haven't changed anything, the Linux script has been fully tested and I have successfully rooted the sl8 mini using it.
For Windows see below:
1) Download the attached zip file and Super1Click zip file ( http://download.cnet.com/SuperOneClick/3000-2094_4-75447027.html ).
2) Unzip the zip files into a new folders (you can use 7-zip for this : http://www.7-zip.org/)
3) Power on the Zoostorm Sl8 Mini and boot it normally.
4) Go into settings, developer options and tick USB debugging
5) Go to settings, security and tick Allow installtion of non-Market Apps
6) Connect the table to the PC with a USB cable.
7) When the new Hardware Found Wizard find the Android device and can't find a driver, select install from speficic location and browse to drivers folder under the folder you just unzipped the Super1click file to.
8) The driver should install from here and will show as an Acer Android device.
9) If Windows complains about the driver not being signed tell it to continue anyway.
10) Reboot the Windows PC if requested by the Hardware installation Wizard.
11) Discconect and replug the USB cable.
12) Open a windows command prompt
13) Navigate to the folder where the unzipped rootsl8mini.zip files are.
14) type runme.bat
15) Read the blurb on the screen and press any key to root your tablet.
16) The Sl8 mini will reboot several times, after it has reboot for the last time your sl8 mini will now be rooted.
For Linux (Ubuntu Precise Pangolin)
1) Install Android SDK, make sure the folder where adb is located is in your shell path variable. See link for Ubuntu instructions (http://www.liberiangeek.net/2012/07...-androidsdk-in-ubuntu-12-04-precise-pangolin/)
2) Download the attached rootsl8mini.zip file and unzip it into a folder.
3) Go into the folder where you unzipped the file and make the runme.bat.sh file executable. (Myhost:$ chmod 777 runme.bat.sh)
4) Power on the Zoostorm Sl8 Mini and boot it normally.
5) Go into settings, developer options and tick USB debugging
6) Go to settings, security and tick Allow installtion of non-Market Apps
7) Connect the tablet to the PC with the USB cable.
8) Execute the runme.bat.sh script (Myhost:$ ./runme.bat.sh)
9) Read the blurb on the screen and press any key to root your tablet.
10) The Sl8 mini will reboot several times, after it has reboot for the last time your sl8 mini will now be rooted.
Enjoy
Thank you, do I go to unzipped file using command prompt?
Thanks
I have tried to root the tablet and it wont install the drivers, it keeps saying that the file is corrupted or missing.
I'am running windows 8 64.

Many thanks :good:
I`m a noob to the Zoostorm. Are there any JB / CM10 ports for it?
Are they known as another name elsewhere in this forum?
Can anyone shed any light on this? Fantastic write-up by mikel by the way. Will test as soon as the mother-in-law gets hers for xmas from us!
Superb MIKEL543 i have done it, thank you so much, it took me a bit to figure it out but i managed to do it YAY..lol.
Now the problem is i cant watch and films from google play or flixster as it say that it cant because my Tablet is rooted .
i have tried everything and cant get it to work! :good:

download and update the zip
Bought this tablet as a gift for my father and assumed that connecting it to a usb keyboard would be straightforward (yeap android noob ) . My question is , is that even possible? Is there a custom rom that can be installed, I presume after rooting the device that enables usb host mode?
