Removing VRTweak - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am on villain rom 2.1
I really like it and have installed CRT Off mod and just installed the blue circle mod. I dont really like it.
How do i remove this tweak. I have been searching everywhere. I found the answer but don't understand it at all. Apparently there are backups in a VRTweaks/Backup folder which i have already found. What next? I am a noob and have no clue how to delete. Please help me.
PLEASE.
Thanks.

One way would be to flash VR again. That will remove all the tweaks without wiping your data (I think... ). Then just flash the ones you like via VRTweaks.

A little more information might help someone to help you.. What did you do to apply the theme? Did you get any errors? I'm getting the impression from your post that you flashed the theme.. that's how it's worded anyway.. If I'm not mistaken the Monster Energy theme is a MetaMorph theme and not a flashable theme. You would need to download MetaMorph from the Market to apply it.

[Q] [simple question] what's the deal with gapps?

i cant seem to find a simple reply to this question. why do the google apps need to be flashed? why cant their apk's just be installed individually? i know there is a good reason, but i was wanting a quick explanation if someone cares to give it.
custom roms dont come with market preloaded (at least mine didnt have it). flashing gapps gives you it
this is my guess. i can be wrong for all i know
EDIT: now that i think about it, i remember reading something similar to the post below

Somewhere I saw something about licensing issues if they were included in custom ROM's that were not licensed by an appropriate entity.
I meant, why do they need to be flashed at all? Why can't they just be installed like other apk's?

Help for Newbies, All questions & Answers for X10.

Request senior members to help
Hi Guy's,
A similar thread was opened by a forum moderator in another forum so i have contacted Pilot and going to give it a try.
The aim is to help newbies/beginners/anybody by answering any questions/issues they have in this thread, they can ask what ever they want no matter what rom/kernel or anything else they are having difficulty with, a place where they feel no threat for asking such questions.
The thread is to be run by not me but all senior members who are willing to help, the aim is to clear the Dev threads of all the unnecessary questions that are becoming more frequent and making it harder and harder to follow rom development.
For those seeking help, always try and help yourself first, most things can be found here..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=678513
If you feel you still need help then fire away, hopefully somebody will have answers for you, please keep questions related to roms in develpopment not stock roms but will cover everything from adb to wlod's.
Please, if you have been helped in anyway by members do not forget to leave thanks.
As usual any new question threads started and not aimed here will be removed by the moderators so please lets keep our development forum clean.
Can i just add that a lot of questions are being asked that can be found in the sticky's, please read those first as most things are covered there.
Thanks guy's for you help.
good idea!
well lets start a little something off then..
1) is there a way to implement voltage control on startup without the need of an app? if so, how?
2) i cant seem to change boot animation. tried changing bootanimation in the normal system/media folder & data/local folder via xrecovery install custom zip file.. any ideas?
thank you!
Awesome idea mate!!
Now anyone can ask questions without creating a new thread or getting burnt!!
@topic: dunno why but my CPU spy seems not to be working, fc'ing all the time even after rebooted. I am on DooM's 3b kernel using J's ROM.
Thank you!!
Warm Regards

GOOD IDEA!
Very good idea, I also think this should be sticky.
But:
It should have a better thread name like:
Questions regarding roms FCs/Errors/Reboots/WLODs go HERE!
Or something that could let extremely clear that if they want to ask something that are not directly a development(but regarding it) should go in here.
Another but, rsrsrs:
The thread should remain only about roms that are developed in here, anything regarding original SE rom, unless tweaked and posted in this area should go to Q&A.
You deserve a thanks!

Thanks for the support buddy and the thanks.
I did wonder about the name, maybe something clearer is needed, will see how it goes but thanks for the advice.
Your other point is valid but it would be better if we do not put restrictions on what can be asked in the op as it defeats the whole idea of the thread.
I think that you should also have a set layout for each problem that way it's easier for people to understand what's going on and it's also easier for other people with the same problem to search
Just a thought

No, I mean, no restrictions at all should be done when they question, it should be more like advises, something like:
inside the thread > First post:
You can ask/question anything in here but keep in mind this is guided for ROM developed in xda not for stock roms.
Questions regarding stock rom may be question on Q&A if not already answer that, if you have doubts regarding the best place you can try here no problems with that.
The only request for the thread should be that the questions must be related some how to errors/failures/wlods after using some apps or tweak, requests, doubts regarding new stuff.
As stock doubt like:
Does x10 flash led works good? should i buy a x10? rsrsrsrs
With time a FAQ can be added to the first post to keep the thread clean and be even more helpful to newbies.

If you made your own Bootanim make sure the zip is uncompressed (ie the files were added with "store" as the compresion other wise it will no worky
then just like @acerulz said adb push or copy it over the excisting one @ system/media/

Hi Buddy,
As your issues you are saying with the games are to do with stock then i do not think anybody here can help you, ask in the Q&A forum see if anybody is having the same problem.
With the wifi, all the roms i know of are fully working, read through some threads and see which rom you would like, it is your personal choice but which ever one you choose there will always be updates to iron out any problems if there are any.
Mac address change
I have a question/request:
How do we change Mac address?
That it is possible I'm sure it is, the problem is that the maximum I could do was to change it for some time(until the adapter was turned off and on again.
I need this to be able to use it on my job as I have only the right to have one mac address.
Being able to use communicator at the office would be very nice, as for now i have to carry the laptop around.
Sometime ago I've tried to question this in Q&A but got no good answer/no help
[Q] X10 Mac Address Change/Spoof How to?
In there I was guided to check this:
Changing(spoofing) MAC address
If someone could help me on this?
In my opinion this would be something that could even become a new option in all roms if the Devs that have knowledge to make it happen like it.
Thanks in advance!

so please help and advise me.. either by giving me a solution to that, or to give me a link where i can find answers for my questions..

Just need to find the clock apk or have someone extract it for you. If you don't manage to find it by tomorrow before I get back to the office, I'll pull it out for you.

Hi, I'm having the same problem and I can't seem to find the clock apk. Could you please link me a file or extract it for me?

Hi,
Just wondering if anyone has had any luck with this, I've mistakenly overwritten my stock clock too with ICS's stock clock, but Samsung's actually a bit better..
Many thanks!
Think you need:
com.sec.android.app.clockpackge
- needs to be installed as a system app.
Pretty sure that worked for me many flashes ago...
Thanks!

but we already did and open applications screen remains the same, I want it stock
Install a new rom without small apps, like superleggera V5. Or restore whole stock firmware. Or restore cwm backup you have done before installing small apps.
Small apps feature involves many files and some of them can't be simply deleted, they need editing to get system work.
BTW this is a good question and it has never answered, at least I've never read an answer about that. But I will be happy if you will point me some helpful posts, I could be wrong.
Don't get rude boy.
