Hi,
since there is root for the Sony Tablet S I try some mods and tweaks that I'am using for my Optimus 2X on the Tablet S.
I compiled the framework.jar from the 3.2.1 r2 Firmware with the Smooth scrolling and Volume step increase tweaks from AndroidON. On my Device it works perfectly, so I decided to share my work to everyone.
All credits go to AndroidON, I just complied the Stuff into the framework.jar.
Before you decide to test this framework.jar make sure that you have the 3.2.1 r2 Firmware.
Please be carefully with this mod because there is no way to restore your devices if it bricks in the moment. I take no responsibility for damage that this mod may have on your tablet.
I've doubled the Volume steps of each category like this:

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Installation
1. Put the modified framework.jar to a sdcard and put the sdcard into your tablet.
2. Open a file manager which have root access and copy the modified framework.jar to /system.
3. Set permission to rw-r--r-- or like this:
4. Move it to /system/framework. (Select yes for overwrite.)
5. Reboot. (Can take a while)
Have fun!
Has someone tested it and can confirm that it work's too?
I've got to do a factory reset on my tablet so fix my settings issue, so I'll look at this now.
An hour later and it's still not booted....
More bootloops. Until we have recovery safely installed, I suggest people don't do big changes that modify build.prop, framework.jar or any other important files (including fonts). You might be risking a brick that is unable to enter ADB mode or install recovery in the future.
I think this has buggered my device, I get this after installing this .jar;

I think I know what I do, but your right
The risk that something bricks is really high an in the moment there is no way to restore something.
But I want you to show that it is possible and I donĀ“t have any bootloops at all.
I have also managed it to mount the the external SD card into the /sdcard folder so that pictures and music show up in the libary, but the external SD card isn't mounted on boot. When I fixed that I' am going to share this tweek too, but for that you have to change the build.prop, svold.fstap and the vold.fstab.

But on the linked post you say that the issue came when you have rooted your device. To apply this mod you need root access. When the FC was there before you applied this mod it cant fix that
Sorry, I meant that the tablet was rooted.
The issue occured after I restarted putting in your framework.jar
I've now got a usless device, I can't start it up, what do I do.
Oh, okey.
What is you firmwere version? The same as in the description?
On my device its work perfectly, look at the images, so I decided to share it.
If you use it or let your fingers away of it is your own decision.
I'am not happy that it doesn't work on your device and it bricked it.
But I can't take the responsibility for that. Sorry.
If there is a way to fix it I will tell you.
Your right - i'm on 3.2.2, please accept my apologies.

No matter which FroYo Release I try, "Fix-permissions" doesnt seem to work properly. Regardless of what i try, it only fixes permissions for the CWM app itself. So its shows two lines of text for CWM, and its done. Any one know why this is happening?
Ps- I've tried completely un installing CWM and deleting its folders and everything associated with it but to no avail. I'm out of ideas...

I take it that everyones ClockWork's "Fix-Permissions" works perfectly fine? Any input would be nice. THanks
You need to get into the actual clockwork recovery and fix perm there. So, open ROM manager, select reboot into recovery, select re-install packages, clockwork recovery should boot up, then goto advance options at the bottom of the list and select, then you should see the fix perm option about half way down the list, select it and your done.
I have the same problem. I'm thinking it's to do with CWM needing to be updated for the vibrant. Since there is no current 2.2 official/supported release it will not be updated as of yet. I haven't contacted koush(dev), but I'm sure he knows.
Even if you do go directly into CWR you can select it, but it doesn't seem to scroll the script...
I am using the stock Froyo eugene posted and I am not having any problems with ROM manager or CWR. I have done two backups with ROM man and wiped cache, dalvik cache, and fix permissions in CWR and it worked. I even got the fix permissions log on my SD card.
This must be it, because same thing happens if i try from the recovery. Is there anyone that can get fix-permissions to actually run the entire script? Would be nice to know if its a select few, everyone, or just us two

^^That's what's at the root of my gtab's /sdcard.
Also, there used to be two folders in that that I had created and are no longer there.
Here's what I was doing immediately before I noticed this:
I'm currently using TnT Lite. I need to be able to access wifi at work but my company uses EAP encryption and TnT doesn't have a setting for EAP. I decided that rather than switching roms, I would just switch settings menus (using the files found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=857939).
Stupid me, I downloaded them to /sdcard2 rather than /sdcard. I booted into clockworkmod and tried to install the zip from the sdcard but clockworkmod couldn't find anything. I realized my mistake and rebooted the gtab and hooked up the usb to my pc. That's when I noticed the file corruption.
Everything still seems to work as it did before, I just don't have access to any of the files that were in those folders.
In case it matters, one folder held the TnT Lite rom and the other held several videos.
Does anyone have any idea what could have caused this?
Should I try to delete the corrupted files?
Any help with this is much appreciated.
I don't claim to know why this happens this is just what I did to fix my problem.
I noticed this on my gtab also, to the point my cal program wouldn't open. The only way I could fix it was to do an sd partition to it fix the issue. There are instructions on how to do that with cm8. This is from memory so please double check, go to the advanced options choose sd partition 2048/0. Please note that this wipes the sd card so back up prior.
I still get a few of those weird files buy not like before.
same thing happened to me but hasn't come back after
re-partitioning with cwm ... maybe that is the fix
I would *really* like to know why this happens (that and why
the sdcard2 gets wiped out sometimes).
Basically, you dare not trust android with any important data
and you never know if what's on it will disappear suddenly
Unfortunately, this makes the tablet just a toy
So is the best option really just to re-partition the sd card?
If I end up re-partitioning, will I have to flash the ROM over again? Or does partitioning just remove the user data?
Quote: will I have to flash the ROM over again?
No
Hello everyone,
I bought a Motorola Atrix 4G about a week ago and I need help on this matter:
I needed RTL support for my atrix so as a result I found that I'll have to root my device and go on for that matter and now I really need to return the device to AT&T before my 30 days to return the phone end.
Here's what I did step by step and that could probably help whoever needs to install one of these languages that run RTL and make them render correctly in everything except emails and browser which can be changed to firefox or mini opera to do the trick.
1- I installed phone drivers on my computer
motorola(dot)com/staticfiles/Support/Experiences/Global_Drivers/USB_Drivers_bit_4.8.0.exe
2-downloaded aRoot
Then connected my phone to the computer in USB debugging mode
ponack(dot)net/designgears/atrix/aRoot/
3- extracted the aRoot.7z and ran aRoot.bat waited until the device rebooted.
4-downloaded Adeo ROM from here
www(dot)ponack(dot)net/designgears/atrix/Adeo
and downloaded the update as well.
Then extracted the AdeoInstallerv0.1.7z ran INSTALL.bat
5-the device rebooted and it took about 5 mins
Then extracted AdeoUpdaterv0.2.7z and ran UPDATE.bat
6-Downloaded root explorer from here
www(dot)mediafire(dot)com/?g59n18vfmadm0lm
6- downloaded the framework.jar and font from here:
www(dot)fileserve(dot)com/file/Jx4wtHf
7- extracted the file and moved DroidSansArabic.ttf to the path /system/fonts/ to the path /system/fonts/ and gave it the permission USER (R/W) GROUP (R) OTHERS (R).
8- moved framework.jar and replaced the original one with it in the path /system/framework/ and gave it the same permissions as above.
9- restarted the device and it is running until i received the update from at&t and it downloads and when installing it fails and give the android guy with exclamation triangle. so I waited and pressed the power button so i got the options so i wiped the device and it still fails the update.
I need your help please to reverse this and restore my device to original and as i received it from at&t so I can return it to them.
Note: I haven't backed up the device as i thought i won't need to as it is my first android phone.
your help is appreciated.
Thank y'all for reading my post.
this should get you on your way: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991072
I have seen this my friend but I'm not sure as I did wipe all data and i heard it is totally a different process if i did. as well i did a factory data reset from the settings which erased all dtat on the phone. if it is the same process even if i did that please let me know and thanks for replying.
i followed the process in the link that i pointed you to, then did a factory data reset and i think i unmounted my Internal phone storage, then formatted it and the same for my SD card.
i think that's about as wiped as you can get. someone correct me if i'm wrong...
OK. That's good.
So I'm confused now what should i download the 1.2.6 or 1.5.2 or both?
how do i know which one i need to do this?
Thank you.

This is the ICS like Phone.apk.
I need a tester who has a Galaxy 5 to test this and report to me through PM.
Please.
Just flash it through CWM.
hi..
please 2 things: can you provide a screenshot of what it should like to?
and I think you should also provide a CWM file to revert to standard phone.apk (stock or Cyano roms)
Here is what is written at the original thread:
Many of you who have tested ICS, would have definetely liked the ICS dialer.
Well, Guess what? It's now available for CM7 too!!
Phone.Apk is attached.
Please Follow the Instructions well.
UPDATE: Users are having some problems using this. It is still in alpha mode. Still modding it to erase all problems. Support Developer or Tester would be nice. PM me if you would like to be involved. To revert back, use the phone.apk from this post : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29069305&postcount=22. It can be installed using the terminal method or just copying it to system\app in Airplane Mod.
Installation Procedure:
Copy the file in the root directory on your sd card.
Rename the file to Phone.apk
turn on airplane mode.
Make sure ur system partition is set to R/W mode
open terminal from your phone.
type the following commands, one by one.
su
cp /sdcard/Phone.apk /system/app
chmod 644 /system/app/Phone.apk
reboot
Now, when you place a call or receive one, You will have the ics like dialer.
NOTE : You need to enable in-call touch UI. To enable, go to Settings > Call Settings > enable In-call touch UI.

Hello all,
I've been flashing rooms on the phone for quite a while now, but last weekend i flashed a new CM14.1 ROM onto the phone with the new GAPPS with it. Before doing this i ofcourse wiped the needed partitions in order for them to work right. However, since i've done this and flashed the new software, the phone doenst have access to the internal storage while being booted into the system (OS)..
When i boot into TWRP, i have full access to the internal storage and i'm able to create new folders and copy/cut/paste files onto it. Down here, you see i've created a new folder using the PC while its booted in TWRP.

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
When i try to do this while its booted in CM14.1 (android 7.1.1, but i think any ROM i'd flash) this happens:
To translate this from Dutch to English: "The new folder couldn't be created on this location. The device isn't responding anymore or the connection has been lost".
When i browse to the internal storage through the OS itself, it does show up. However, i dont have any access to create new folders or files or to change them:
Also when i try to take a picutre using the camera, it says this:
Even when i enable developer options and giving root to both apps and adb, it still doesnt have the required access to perform these actions:
Also going to the gallery, it says that there is no storage available:
I also looked up some info about the partition, which might be useful for those who have some knowledge about this.. This is what i found using the app "Diskinfo":
And i also used the commands ls -l to show the permissions of the /data/media/(and)0/ to see what rights are giving out:
As you see here, the app itself didnt have access to go to the storage location untill i gave it "su" rights. Does this mean the entire OS doesnt have access to this location because it simply doesnt have the right permissions for it?
If anyone has any suggestions or wants to help me figure out what is wrong, please feel free to reply here or through a PM. It would be highly appreciated.
///Edit
After searching around on the web i came across a post where someone said that running the TWRP advanced option "Fix Context" would reset all permissions that you normally dont do yourself. So i've ran that, it ran for like 0.5 second before being finished. After rebooting the phone into the system (OS/Android) all problems were solved and permissions were set right.
Therefore my problem is resolved now, and this topic could be closed ^^
