can someone help me, i cant get adobe flash to work on virusrom
have you fix permissions in rom manager? fixed flash for me
i tried it and nothing changed
I'm on virusrom and have no problems with flash.
On another note, where is the host file for virus rom? What folder has the file that lists all that ads that are blocked from apps and browsers. I can't seem to find it anywhere.

OK try this. Use root explorer or titanium backup and delete adobe flash. Then try downloading it again from the market.

well, just to let u know when i tried that route it got a bit tricky...make the app folder full R/W and then go to Titanium Backup and delete it, u will need to reboot so the R/W takes effect and then download Flash Player off the market, should install no problem
Edit: The reason u R/W is because when u delete it and try to reinstall it seems to always be unsuccessful on the install...this method fixed it for me
a couple other q's
1) My font color in the notification pulldown is black, with the dark colored pulldown it's really hard to see (especially if i'm outside) .... can I change that text color to white, or a brighter color? ....or did I do something wrong?
2) My keyboard is still the standard keyboard and not the black and blue keyboard from the screenshot ... I really want that keyboard! ....what did I miss??
3) I really like that twitter widget that is in the screenshot on VR page....but I don't have that....how do I get it???
....I probably have more q's, but I can't think of them right now....I couldn't post this in the VR page because I'm a new member and xda won't allow it yet :/
anyone out there??
unfortunately I can't post this to the actual VR forum since I'm a new member with under 10 posts...
...so I'll get my reply, or 10 posts, either way ... it's all good!
thought of another issue...don't think it's the rom because I was having the same issue with tesla coil....my bluetooth headphones disconnect all the time .... never had this problem before tbolt; dx stayed connected, so I don't know what it is about the bolt that would make that happen...
Thought of another issue, ..this thread is dead...
the good news is ...i'm almost at 10 posts
looks like I can't delete these posts...
I am sorry, I know this is annoying...I would just like to be able to post in the other threads...
number 10 .
didn't work ...so now I guess i have another question ....why can't I post in the VR thread!!!???!!!!!!!!!!!

Sounds like you broke your settings, just pull the settings apk from the original rom zip and push it to your phone then reboot.

Forgive me if I may sound a little dumb here but how do you pull it from the original rom then push to phone?......
I am sure one of the fonts did that. it has happened to me before. To pull somethiong out of rom just unzip it. Settings.apk is in system/app folder.
Awesome fonts. Thanks!!
running team whiskey nero v5 w/ touch wiz
Very nice. Thanks for this. I was so tired of the same s**t!
one of these fonts seem to crash your phone and give you force closing. IDK which one yet but if i find out i will post. If anyone else knows please let me know

YES PLEASE I redid everything on my phone and its great again but i would love to use a different font but i do not want to use this zip until someone can pin point the problem
the ajax font crashed my settings, i repeat do not install the ajax font, it will crash your phone and constant FC of your display settings, i extracted the original settings .apk from my rom and pushed over and rebooted, that does not work...still FC... not cool...
I pinpointed the one that's causing the force closes. can't remember the exact name because I deleted it right when I discovered which one it was. I do believe it had something like "7con in it. Or something to that extent. Hope this helps everyone that's having this issue.

Uninstall it using Titanium or super manager or whatever you use and it ll be back to normal.
I unistalled them all using Titanium and was able to open up my display settings again.
Edit: post before me beat me to it.
yeah, that doesn't work, i uninstalled all of them hours ago...tried to push the settings apk over using root explorer but root explorer wont allow me to mount the system folder to rw just stays ro, i pushed settings.apk over to the data folder where app is and that did nothing after i replaced settings.apk...should i unistall settings.apk from titanium then reinstall settings.apk from my rom zip? i try to reinstall the settings.apk and it will not allow me to do so..now my launcher is freezing up and force closing on reboots...
Woops same problem. Is it the ajax apk?

Two options, find the rom you used, open it up, grab the apks out of it and push them to /system/apk, you need "LiveWallpaper.apk / LiveWallpaperPicker.apk" as noted by ksantoshh.
Or you could do a backup, and reflash your rom, without wiping, that should restore all the needed apks without losing your data (but backup first to be sure).
Than you for both of you
Installing those 2 apps fixed the problem
But I have next problem (screen in attachements). Picker workd good but when I want to chose a wallpaper it crushes.
Weird thing is that some wallpapers work and some not

Is it problem with all live wallpapers or just some specific ones.IF its just some specific ones, then the problem might be with that wallpaper.
Just try clearing the data and cache for that application once and check.
Hello every one,
This is my first post here but I was trying to search Google in general and especially xda-developers but didn't find answer.
Ok, so I have new Galaxy S 3 from Polish provider Plus GSM. I rooted it and changed ROM at the beginning. I started with ENERGY HD 2.0 because it looks nice - and it's actually very good ROM imo, well done DakiX.
But one thing - why I can't find radio in it? I know, this might sound strange, but there is no radio. Yesterday I tried to change ROM, this time to MIUI Rayglobe. As you may probably know it has plenty of options before installation and there is one to install radio. I did it and it was working as charm so there is no problem with my device (as I hard some phones in US doesn't have this function at all).
Is it just my, I'm doing something wrong?
Thank you for any help and understanding.
Regards from Poland and best in 2013!,
Bartosz.

That "lol" is because it was obvious and I should know it?
Everything is working great, thank you very much!
So, apparently not everything is OK
Like you said, I directly copied FmRadio.apk to system/app using root explorer. And Radio FM icon appeared in application screen.
I turn turn it on easily - no prob. Please check the attachments.
But after turning it on with a button - after couple of sec it's closing and I got notification "Radio FM application was stopped":
Strange fact - I can still hear noise in headphones, even after this error!
So I tried to reopen radio, but all I get is black screen and same notify after 5 sec.
I know this is weird, but maybe there is "another" RadioFM app? I really don't know what is going on here and why it doesn't want to work.
I'm the only one with such strange issue?

Do you have the zip file of the ROM that you put on your phone? If so, you can edit the zip file using 7zip (find the apps folder) and flash that, making sure that the signature verify is turned off. This is how I used to do it on my phone, but have recently updated to using 4Ext and still finding my way around this app, but it's got app removal built in (I think).
Hope this helps :good:

Not at all, we all have to start somewhere. I'm not particularly technical myself so I will try and help as much as I can.
When you say you have rooted your phone, have you also install a custom ROM on your phone as well? To do this, you should have had a zip file that you used to flash the ROM to the phone.
I would create a copy of the ZIP file, in case you go wrong. Open up the ZIP file using 7zip (or something similar, I suggested this one as I know you can delete files from the zip file, but some other programs won't do this).
You show see two folders, click on system and then click on the app folder. You need to be careful in what you delete as it might force the phone to crash out (hence make a copy of the ZIP file, and have both of them on your phone). Simply delete the apps you don't want and then save and flash the ROM on your phone (you will need to turn off signature verify for it to work, but I'm not sure where there will be in your menu's as I don't know what recovery you are using, it's normally under "other").
Does this make anything more clearer?
If not, please explain exactly what you have done in terms of rooting and flashing a ROM.

In order to understand what it is that you want to archive, could you please tell me why you rooted your phone?
I ask as, unless you have a copy of the stock ROM, once you have flashed a ROM, you won't be able to go back to the original ROM. If you are happy to go ahead, I suggest you look around for ROM's that will work on your phone. Depending on what you want from a ROM (small size, quick loading or lots of gadgets and tweaks), you should be able to find one already working to how you would like. Some ROM's do not have any Google apps or YouTube and only have basic apps to run the phone (I had a ROM call Redux that was like this), other ROM's have many features (I've had a ROM called MIUI that was like this). If you find a ROM you like, it is better to leave the apps as they are.
I can try and help you with how to flash the ROM if you get stuck, but I did not use the superoneclick way.
As I said first, why do you want to remove apps?

Hmmmmmm, there are other things you could try if you are having issues with your phone.
I have an app called Autostarts and you can stop apps from booting when the phone is restarted or when other things happen (like a change in signal).
I also have another app called Battery Mix which is very good at finding out what apps are running and draining the battery or taking up CPU usage.
I also have another app called Quick System Info which you can set up so that when you click end tasks, it only ends tasks that you've selected (you put them on a supervise list), which is very handy if you have things like 3G monitoring or clocks that might crash if you kill them.
Maybe you need to root the phone in a different way. Try reading this

Hi all
A couple a weeks ago i've downloaded a rom ported from Note3 to W200s @ needrom.com [W200S_N3.zip].
It seemed to be a nice one, until i tested the Torch app. As i opened the app and on the flashlight, turned the back of the phone to me, i watched clearly the flashlight dimmed before my eyes.
At first i didn't care much about it, just thought that when i flashed my twrp backup it would all back to normal...
But no... The flashlight is dimmed since then, despite all my attemps....
Here you so, some of my fails
- Flashed StockROM - Still dimmed
- Flashed all the W200S ROMs available - Still dimmed
- Edit the scatter-file to include hidden partitions
misc.img, pro_info, seccfg, expdb, protect_f, protect_s
Got a hold at another w200s, backup those partitions and flashed them all... Still dimmed
Right now, i'm running out of ideas...
But, before i send my phone to replace the flashlight LED, i'm creating this thread as my last hope...
I know there's other users out there that happend this, i saw their reports on the site...
However, the user who posted the ROM, deleted it. So the issue was silenced....
Plz, lets gather here and try to find a fix for this issue... if there is one...
Thanks
Admins:
I apologize if the thread isn't on the right place...
If possible, move it to the thread to its right spot, thanks
same problem
Hello
I have the same problem with the same ROM(W200S_N3.zip).
I have done the same things
-Flashed StockROM - Still dimmed
-Flashed all the W200S ROM's available - Still dimmed
I have contacted with the site from which I have purchased the mobile but they only replied that I should try another programm for the flash. The only thing that I need is to find the specs of the flash ion order to find the same one and replace it.

after reading your post i've made some research and came up up with this:
Kevin TeslaCoil @ said:
stackoverflow.com
HTC has an alternative API that supports this, however it's only on HTC Sense devices, and as of Gingerbread they've changed the permissions so it's only for their Flashlight app, not third party ones (unless you use root).
But on 2.2 HTC devices you can use it by writing a string to /sys/devices/platform/flashlight.0/leds/flashlight/brightness. This controls if the LED is on and how bright it is. For maximum brightness write "128\n", half brightness write "64\n". Easy to test from adb shell:
echo "128" > /sys/devices/platform/flashlight.0/leds/flashlight/brightness
And finally turn it off by writing "0\n" there.

So it seems to be possible to change the brightness of the flashled.
Of course this info is for a competely diferent device with yet another android version...
But i'm pretty that we should have a similar folder and file on our phones that can allow this... maybe where the flashlight app itself changed the settings...
I need your help to find out this file...
I'm using a root file explorer and still didn't find anything similar...
Lets try this one last time before throw our phones against some wall...

after reading your post i've made some research and came up up with this:

I have the same issue but mine doesn't work at all.
There's a /sys/class/flashlightdrv/kd_camera_flashlight and a /sys/devices/platform/kd_camera_flashlight.0 (which might actually be the same directory) but it doesn't have a brightness entry. I'm going to return my W200S for one where the flash works
