[Q] Flashing patches-touchwiz launcher and apps for Superclean 2.8v - Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I finally got superclean 2.8 voodoo to work right but now that want to flash touchwiz launcher and apps-from what I understand is just doing the same thing in cwm-it does not work.. It says I had installed the .zip but when I reboot nothing is changed. I even moved the .zips from the Touch Wiz folder on my sd card to the root of my sd card.. What am I doing wrong? As I'm unable to flash touchwiz onto my phone.. This is confusing me because I'm doing everything right, unless I broke something.

Did you clear cache and dalvik before flashing tw zip? Tw should have been on your phone to start with, version comes with 2.8. Are you trying to over write the existing tw?

TW (the launcher) does not come with SC2.8. He obviously wants it back. Personally, I kinda like the TW launcher and have the zip sitting on my sd card, but haven't tried flashing it back yet. I suppose I should just to see if it works.

I have cleared dalvik cache and cache, including wiping data the first time. I'm no version 2.8 superclean has stock 2.3 gingerbread launcher??? :/ No tw... Tw comes as a patch... which apparently isn't working.

Yep using J133t cwm recovery for all red. :/ Did it work for you?

You are right. A no go. After it failed I thought perhaps it was permissions so I went into Terminal Emulator and ran fxpms under root: still nothing. Adrynalyne should probably be notified. Perhaps it's another scripting issue?

He said it should work, I'm unsure why its not... and if thats the case you know anywhere else that we can download the TouchWiz launcher plus live wall paper, and the stock apparel including bloat? Cuz I did like some of the apps and wanted to try the games lol... And yeah Adrynalyne should be notified but I can't post on the developement part of the thread. I guess a PMT would be better than a thread?? Idk which one cuz I dont know which would be answered more. I hope not cuz he did say all patches and superclean where 2.5.x CWM only with edify scripts for 2.8 to work with 3.0 cwm AFTER you installed it via 2.5.x red cwm. :-/

Did you make sure you had the current .zip files from the new SuperClean thread? Some earlier ones had problems with installing on 2.8 and Adry had to update the files to work.

You are correct, sorry I mixed up SC2.8 with DarkREVENGE. DarkREVENGE has a TW launcher included. I just use LPP.

Ah it's cool haha. DarkREVENGE has the gtg tw launcher or CrushD's edited GTG Tw launcher?? You tried it yet, does it have working notification bubbles? Oh haha. I like the look of the new tw launcher very much, ever since froyo they actually made it much better looking.. especially with the sick color scheme. Reminds me of the Galaxy S2 which I'm guessing that's the direction they were headed.
EDIT: Now just need to get dem sick widgets from the Galaxy S2 ova to the Fascinate and my life would be set. Haha..

Window animations CyanogenMod

OK! This isn't as simple as it was for BlaY0's ROM. I think the reason is that some people are on nightlies which are stable, so they don't bother using the "official" stable one, or that people use a version that's slightly after 6.1, and could be though of as 6.1.1 (if you have the option for a rotary lockscreen, that's you). This means that frameworks differ slightly, which means I can't a one-zip-for-all type release. There are 2 ways round this:
You make it yourself by going to circle.glx.nl
I do it in a metamorph
I have made a metamorph for the fly-in animation, see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10217215&postcount=18
This is kind of in testing, but it should work. Let me know.

Well, they are tested on my phone. I've pulled them for now, and I'll try again and test a little more thoroughly.
If you didn't backup you can go grab framework-res.apk from the CM-6.1 zip file that you installed from (if you're anything like me it'll still be on your SD card) and push it back to your device with ADB. If you're S-ON you will need to be in recovery mode. Make sure system is mounted (there's an option for this in the "partitions" menu) That will fix the bootloop issue.
Once again, I'm very sorry about this, I'll look into it and upload amended versions. Or, if you feel like being bold you can make it yourself: circle.glx.nl
EDIT:
Attached is a flashable zip that should get you back to normal I'd still wipe dalvik-cache with this one
EDIT 2:
OP updated with fixed versions
EDIT 3:
Things are still screwed for some people, EDIT 1 has been undone
Yup, thanks for the tip. I pushed it back and its booting fine. Well of course you can't test it on more devices than your own. My post might seem a bit cranky. My bad... Grumpy because of hunger I suppose
But what super-special stuff did you do for it to work on your device?

You're completely entitled to be cranky, I screwed up. Again. Try with the new version I posted in the OP. It should be better. And I tend to do stuff live, without all the flashing of zips, so maybe I missed something the first time 'round. (/system overlay, restarting the android framework and ADB)
Will try in a sec!
Well, S-OFF can cause f***-ups

Ha haa, S-OFF was done AFTER these MODs. But I still use an overlay on /system for a lot of stuff.
Alright, I tried the new zip and its booting up fine. And the fly-in graphics are working. Too bad all I see are all running processes being killed. Over and over again. Something is not what it should. Still progress
EDIT: Even the zip that should restore framework-res.apk causes the killing of processes. Restored the one from the 6.1 zip and its fine now
Working fine for me. This is nifty, got any other animations up your sleeves?
Edit: Oh wow, just realized how many this changes. Nice.
@greenolive. This is strange. I've just made a metamorph, but I gotta test it on a fresh install of CM.
@speedyink, there are more. I just need to find a way to release these for CM so that they work for everyone.
EDIT:
==================================================================================
Ok, I have made a metamorph Do not try to flash this zip. In order to use this you need either S-OFF or /system overlay. This should be a little more forgiving with the specific build of CM you're using. It is attached to this post, and won't make it to the OP until I'm a little more confident. This IS tested. I wiped everything and installed a new version of CM just so I could test this without my other modifications affecting it.
In testing, I didn't need to wipe dalvik-cache, but if you get problems do that before you complain at me
Ah, one more thing. You may wonder how this is any better than the zips I posted earlier. Well, as metamorph replaces the files it needs in your framework-res.apk, as opposed to replacing the whole apk (that's what the zips did), there is a smaller chance of errors caused by the the "wrong" framework.
i have cyanogen 6.1. for me the zip file got me into a boot loop and the metamorph did nothing. however i did manage to make it work by copying the anim folder from your zip file manually into my framewrok-res.apk file
I've been tried the metamorph version on CM7 nightlies and it worked on all of those roms .

[UPDATE ZIP] Stock 1.2 update.zip flashable from CWM

I modified the official 1.2 update to allow CWM to flash them. You can use these to upgrade to 1.2 or to return to stock.
There are two files. One replaces CWM with the stock recovery (good for going back to stock). The other doesn't replace CWM (but will replace uboot).
Other than that they are identical to the update from B&N.
update-nc-stock-1.2-keepcwm-signed.zip
update-nc-stock-1.2-signed.zip
Please note neither one of these are rooted yet.
Just curious as to if this is rooted or just fixed to allow use of CWM?
Nevermind just read the full post!!
So just to make sure, I could use the one zip to return to full stock but with the 1.2 update? Also will this work if I have CM7 and CWM on my emmc? So reboot into CW, format \system and \data then flash the update-nc-stock-1.2-signed.zip, then Reboot. At that point, I should be 100% 1.2 stock, sound about right?
I thinking about returning to stock and just run CM7 for my SD if this is an options.
Thanks,
Derek.

Assuming you haven't fooked up any paritioning by using the "dual-boot" stuff you can return to 100% stock by doing the folllowing:
Download the update-nc-stock-1.2-signed.zip above
Flash the zip with CWM (either from emmc or sdcard)
Use CWM to factory reset the device (wipe /data and /cache)
Reboot into 100% stock froyo
If you have modified your partitions this will not work.
This won't work off of an sd right?
I'd like to modify this so it just installs to my dual boot partition.
I've done this before with flashing kernels, but there are more partitions here to take care of.
I figure if I'm going to change the updater script to mount the correct block partitions then I should also have it wipe /data and /cache on the secondary partition.
Any ideas on syntax?

Thanks
Once we have a rooted version I'll probably check it out for fun.

I guess I wasn't clear the first time: if I use this method, am I stuck with B&N's version of Froyo until someone figures out how to root this one, or can I just reflash CM7? And I'm not sure I understand the difference between both of the zips that nemith has produced.
In any case, thanks nemith - I always appreciate the work that the devs do!

If you dont like this, just boot into a bootable clockwork recovery and flash cm7 or whatever you want. You wont be stuck on this.
One zip removes Clockwork Recovery and puts the stock recovery back. The other leaves Clockwork Recovery intact.
I'd assume, leaving it intact allows you to flash back to any backups or any other Rom if incase you do not like the official build.
I'm at work so I'm unable to test it out.
Or you can always just use a bootsble SD with clockwork on it to reflash whatever ron or backup you have.

Any way you could make something would allow you to flash 1.2 onto a secondary parttion for those of us who are dual booters?
So Ive got this thing rooted but I for the life of me cannot get the market to work. I have the vending.apk and googleservicesframework.apk under /system/app but market will not show up in my app drawer on the stock or adw launcher. Under manage applications, market or googleservicesframework arent there either. Does the nook have other dependencies? If anyone with some experience could throw some suggestions my way. ADB isnt currently working without the driver. Ive added other apps that are showing up and working perfectly.

Nope didnt touch it, im usually devving for the evo, so modding that isnt normally needed for gapps. What would need to be modified in the build.prop?
The device code will have changed and prevent market access. Try pulling the device code from a froyo device with market access like Droid X.

that's happened to me with MIUI in the past...i just unzipped the extended settings mod, dropped it in the system/app folder, rezipped it, then flashed in recovery... try rebooting a few times.. that's how I've gotten it back in the past... hope i helped.
Well what I'm doing right now is replacing the mms.apk in the 1.10.14 zip and flashing it. I've done that on previous builds and it worked. If I am using the Extended Settings, will I have to replace it in that?
EDIT: Replaced mms.apk via winrar on my laptop, flashed, sms app still gone.

if you are reflashing the entire rom zip, then yes, you will have to reflash the extended settings mod again after first boot.

Well, I officially had a very dumb moment. I got frustrated, and went back to 1.9.9, which has been the most stable for me. Noticing my Messaging icon was still gone. Upon a closer look, it was there, just some how got moved to my last screen. Was probably there the whole time, I just assumed it'd be in the same spot. Doh!
Going to try this again with 1.10.14
easiest thing to do is use root explorer... navigate to the extended settings mod zip you downloaded... long press the zip... choose extract all... go to extracted... place the mms.apk in system/app... back out to original mod folder... long press the folder... choose zip... choose go to zip... move to wherever you want on sd card... flash in recovery
Thank you very much for this, this is amazing! I just over wrote the mms.apk in the flashable 10.14.3 zip that I had and flashed, everything working, it is now a perfect port! I love the individual notification/sms sounds in the control panel, I had to flash back to 9.16 for working mms, now I can keep .14, thanks again!
Replaced mms.apk in the 1.10.14 zip, flashed, and all is working well. Thanks a bunch Rick.

[Q] Stock to UnNamed

Ok, so I have been waiting for ICS patiently since I got my phone and didn't want to jump to any other rom but I am going to have 2 weeks off work and I know I will want to try and flash something out of boredom.
Few questions...
Switching from Stock Rooted to Unnamed
1. If I want to keep all my saved game/app info I just need to do Titanium Backup of user apps correct?
2. Will I have a problem playing MKV, AVI on the stock player, and will TW widgets like Picture Gallery work?
3. And if I do not like UnNamed (doubt I wont like it) do I just need to do a CWM recover to go back to exactly where I was then restore my apps/games from Titanium?
My main concern is loosing anything, thanks in advance for the help and I will make sure to hit that thanks button.

If you backup with Tibu before installing the rom, just be sure to only restore missing apps with data. Don't install any system apps or system data. I think you need pro version for that feature.

UnNamed is based on stock. You should be able to run anything that you can run on stock. You'll still have tw unless you change it. The widgets will work.

If you first install a CWM enabled kernel, you can make a nandroid backup before you flash the rom, and then return to stock plus CWM enabled kernel from the nandroid backup. After that, you could even flash the stock kernel back if you wanted. In this case, your current configuration would be retained.
Made the switch earlier than I thought.
Thanks for the answers, when I get home ill play with it some more.
One additional factor about unnamed is because its based on Stock you can still use Samsung Kies for backup/restore...Now I have moved on to ICS'd ROM from Task and you cannot use the USB kies.
This becomes even more enticing now that gtg has posted the 2.0.0 Unnamed update and it includes much of the animation that is in ICS. Now I think there is even a 2.0.0a that included the latest Entropy daily.

Yea I wish I waited one more day before flashing, but I will use 1.3.2 for a few days.
Should I update to Entropy or Siyah latest kernal or I should leave it at what 1.3.2 came with?
At least I realized how easy it is to actually flash and retain all my stuff.
Missed call logs but I got the app just now, kinda really needed that and rejected list.
I had the same question. Easy answer is that you can flash UnNamed 2.0.0 right over the 1.3.2. using the zip on your SD and CWM. That way you can just continue and don't have to reset/install anything. Worked like a charm. Don't know about call logs. Didn't matter to me. Finally, you can easily flash updated kernels like the Entropy ones.
I think he recommended to format 1.3.2 to install 2.0, but I flashed over and it was fine.
gtg started out recommending factory update and wipe but it's playing out that you can just install, what is is now, 2.1.1 right over 1.3.2 and there have been no issues on that account. gtg is putting an incredible amount of work into this.

stuck on m boot logo

Ok so i was having some laggy issues w the x2 and all the sudden i started getting process not working for things like nova laucher and such. SO i went into BSR to wipe cache and fix the permissions. Did that and now the phone sits on the Big M boot screen. Why wont it boot up. I didnt wipe dat or try to flash anything. Any way to get the phone up and runnig again w/ o SBF'g

Well what ROM are you using for starters.
that might be important right.. .sorry.. its aokp 6
Ok. Well if you can get back into BSR, try and wipe the dalvik cache in the advance settings. I never use the fix permissions option. Maybe that did something to your device.
did that too. Still on the boot logo. is a sbf in order

Well I wouldnt see why it would do that if you just wiped cache and fixed permissions. Did you have any other mods on there? Were you using the patched CM7 BSR and not the original one?
i was using the motodx2_bootstrap_signed.apk. Not sure if the cm7 or not. Ive used this on eclipse and aokp

That one is fine to use on Eclipse. But pretty much any other ROM we have (CM7, CM9, CM10, AOKP, Paranoid Android and I think even MIUI), you need to use the CM7 BSR named "MOTODX2_Bootstrap-CM7-signed.apk" which is found in the CM7 thread. That may have been the problem.
really... damn. i dl'd it so when i flash cm10 but did not install it for thw aokp. Just off your thoughts is the cm10 stable enough now to install. i have no prob putting aokp back on but im nott looking for stability problems. If cm10 isnt stable yet i van wait

I think CM10 is more stable than any of the ICS ROMs. But with the stability, there comes other small issues that the ICS ROMs dont have. Its a trade off. Main issues of CM10:
1. Messing with bluetooth may cause phone to crash durring calls. Reboot fixes it until bluetooth is messed with again. (Might be fixed with an update)
2. Storage is in a different location. Not really an issue but its also swapped back to the original 4gigs for the internal. All your files will be flipped after using other ROMs for so long. (not a huge deal)
3. Due to the storage being moved around, apps that are stored on the SD card will disappear after reboot. (will probably be fixed in the future)
4. Flashing ROMs in recovery wont work. If any update comes out, you have to either SBF and update or nandroid back to ICS and update. (again, not a huge issue)
Other than that, I cant really think of any bad stuff. Its faster and I have no random reboots. I recommend it if you can live with the issues I mentioned which are honestly not bad.
Also, with the BSR files, in case you dont know already. When you are on stock 2.3.4, you first use the original BSR. Then when you flash CM10, you install the CM7 BSR.

1. I never use blue tooth so then i should be all set then.. correct?
2. didnt aokp have that. I know the eclipse rom had the flip flop in it to read right but aokp i had to move my music and such so wouldnt i still be in the same boat or is it different than oakp?
3. i have some apps.. such as thems i have downloaded off of xda. So once installed they will work but rebooting will make them dissapear? is there a way to put these on the phone memory? Also curious i have google drive and have some of these installed on the drive. Will they still work or do they just dl to the sd and still not work?
4 i dont have a problem sbf'g but wondering if i nandroid the a2, will i be able to sbf, install root, a3 ect and do a data restore to get my info back?
also i will take the cm7 bsr and remeber that. Thanks

1. I use bluetooth every now and then but I never turn it off. It seems that toggling the bluetooth on and off or visa versa triggers the issue and a reboot fixes it again.
2. I forget what Eclipse had. Its been so long. But ever since CM7, the flip flop mod has been included in all the ROMs which meant you got your SD card (which the droid X2 comes with 8GB) as internal storage and the actual 4GB internal storage was turned into the "external storage." CM10 reverted back to the original 4GB internal and 8GB external.
3. Everything you download and install on your phone will usually be installed on the internal storage. I think if you have apps over a certain size (which isnt very many. Mostly games), they are installed on your SD card. Those are the ones the system has a problem reading after a reboot. the actual files you have downloaded from XDA will still be there. Just installed apps might disappear.
4. Not really sure what you are asking here. But if you get A2 installed and up and running and A3 comes out, You will pretty much need to start over. But for me, thats fine. I use Titanium Backup and restore everything after a wipe anyway. What data are you referring to?
ok so this is the gapps md5
MD5sum: f62cfe4a827202899919fd932d5246d7
and gapps-jb-20120726-signed.zip
is this correct

Pete's can be a PITA... If usb debug is enabled and unkown sources is checked just keep trying. I've had to "one click" 5 or 6 times before it works right. Close the program between tries. Also make sure your phone isn't in PC charge mode or anything.
Sorry for not updating this. After trying for 2 hrs I started trying everything. It turned out I had to use the cable that came w the dx2. No other cables worked
Sent from my MB870 using xda premium
Ah, my bad I should have read the time stamp. Anyway yea, the cable is a big deal (even though that sounds crazy.)

Lol oh and btw MD5 checksums are
"The MD5 checksum for a file is a 128-bit value, something like a fingerprint of the file. There is a very small possibility of getting two identical checksums of two different files. This feature can be useful both for comparing the files and their integrity control."
