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

dude like even i had this problem , on Ericks Rom ..coz i used to update the patchs released by him on top of another and another .... like i used to follow the steps as mentioned by Erick .. but still i used to get FC's .. so what i did is once i flashed the full ROM (cleared everythin) and flashed the latest Patch and voila !! my cpu Spy started working again .. i think that problem comes when we try to update once patch on top of another and so on ...
jus gave my opinion !!
hope it helps you !!
thank me if it did !!

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/
Pvy.

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!

Hi guys,
I'm new to modifying Android's roms and here is my problem.. I bought a used SE x10 which has 2.1 firmware.. I heard about 2.3.3 official SE update and went to there website, backed up my data, opened my PC companion to update but it surprised me to keep telling me that my phone is "already up to date"!!
I asked about that and someone told me if the guy who used the phone before me did install a custom rom to my phone before, official ways to update my phone wont work..
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..
thank you in advance for your support..
my device info found at "about phone":
Model number: X10a
Firmware version: 2.1-update1
Baseband ver.: 2.1.54
Kernel ver.: 2.6.29
Build number: 2.1.A.0.435
How do I change the bootanimation on my ace? I've downloaded a whole bunch from around the forums now I don't know how to change mine. I saw a post about just drag and drop to data/local but I can't find that folder. Does that mean I can make it?
I hope its not as complex as I've seen around. (Mounting through adb and putting in a whole bunch of codes)
i will advice you to atleast search GOOGLE for something rather than asking all the questions in way different threads.... you can search little and get answers

Funny thing is I DID search which is why I'm asking here. Did you not read what I posted? Or you just read the question at the beginning?
i read whole thing.. but there are to many users here and all users starts asking same questions all over again.... thats why i was just advising you to search forum..
if it doesn't help try out ultimate google as you can always find answers yourself..

+1. True that. I'll edit to show what happened after. xD
EDIT: Nope. Didn't work. :'(
EDIT2: Wow. I just googled it again and this thread appeared xD
EDIT3: Finally did it! All thanks to this guide here http://galaxyacehvga.blogspot.com/2011/11/change-boot-animation.html
Forgive me first off if this post exists somewhere else in this forum. I have looked with very little result. I recently rooted my device Cm-10.1 all went well. What I am missing or was not included was the My Net app from the tablet. A lot of people said you could find it on the ASUS site .. ummm NO unless I missed it. Could someone attach that APP to this post please.
here it is, idk if it runs on cm10, i pulled it from the cleanrom! maybe the asus apps dont run on cm10? try and tell me!
if you need the other Apps :

I am wondering how you got it to install. I am using CM 10.1 night 2013-0101-Nightly. I have tried it on several other versions as well and it will not install is this by chance a permissions issues ?
How are yoiu installing it? You will need to push to system/app manually and change permissions yourself I would imagine.

I just realized I never answered your question. I am pushing it to the download section and then just clicking on it to install it there I will pushing it over to the system/app section and doing it from there

Doubt that will work.
Here I have made an installer for you - try flashing this. I suspect it won't work on anything but a stock based rom due to some reliance on Asus framework files.
Let me know how you get on.
