Folder 0 on HTC ONE - T-Mobile HTC One (M7)

I have looked every where for this with no luck on how to fix it yet. I flashed Rom on my HTC ONE and discover everything I had previously was gone. I check and it looks like I am running the system from a new sub folder called "0". I flashed the ROM with the latest ClockWorkMod so it was not supposed to happen. Now I have no idea how to either get rid of the sub folder "0" or the files I had/have on the actual upper folder of my system. I have looked every where for a RUU for Tmobile with no luck. Any help would be highly appreciated.
I tried mounting the device but it always point me into the inside of the folder 0 as my root directory, so no clue on what to try next.

[ROM] [DEVS ONLY] Incredible S and Desire S for Nexus One

Over the last few days, I've been cooking up a ROM using the Incredible S system dumps and nandroids. Problem is, it doesn't work It flashes fine, everything works there, but when I boot up my N1, it stays on the Nexus splash screen (the one with the X on the padlock on it). If any devs could have a good look at it, and see if they can find the source of the problem I'd be eternally grateful When you've found the problem and confirmed it works, PM me the file, tell me how you solved the problem, and I'll just check everything is in working order, then upload it. I will also put your username in the thread!
I used the HTC Android Kitchen (link here) to make this, so you might want to use that.
Incredible S
Link to latest ROM
The zip is: 224.0 MB (234929825 bytes)
Desire S
Link to latest Desire S ROM.
The zip is: 233.1 MB (244429351 bytes)
Thank you devs,

I doubt you could get the whole image on the phone, 224mb is way to big without scripts to move files over to another partition.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=784260
That is 268mb and is a Sense ROM, so 224mb should fit.
I think that the system directory is way too big to be installed on a nexus one.
You should move some of the system content to data or move it to an ext3 sdcard partition.
What they said.
Put attention that even the ROM you linked REQUIRES A2SD partition, which it'll set up and use.
So to move the content from system to data: is that just a straight drag and drop procedure, or is some converting to make it work in data rather than system required?

I am not an expert in the porting roms topic but if I am correct you will have to symlink the things that you move.
This can be done modifying the updater-script.
OK, thank you

How would I move the stuff from system to an ext3 sdcard partition?
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Good thread. Sounds like a simple matter of setting up a2ext.
Nice work dude!
I would take a look at eViL's desire HD port since its going to be the most similar to this ROM....
That should help you in figuring out what is/isn't okay to move to SD....

How big should the system and data directory's ideally be?
System - 140 MB is the phone limit, so I wouldn't go above 120-125 MB.
Data - all the rest, as much as you need. You're installing to EXT anyway.
Can you provide a LOGCAT when booting up?

I can certainly try
OK, so I've moved stuff to a folder in the root of the ROM called ext, as that is what was in the NXSense-HD ROM by eVil. Problem is, the system directory is still 20mb too big. The folders in system:
bin
etc
framework
lib
media
sd
usr
xbin
and build.prop
What can I move to ext/data from this selection of folders? I moved from system to ext:
app (now called system-app)
customize (now called system-customize)
fonts (now called system-fonts)
Thanks,

I'm not a developer, but if you move one folder to ext partition and create a symlink to this folder in system partition? Shouldn't it work?

I don't know if any folder can be moved though. For example, framework may not be movable.
EDIT: So I've moved some stuff from system to ext, but now the update-script is giving me grief. I'm trying to follow eVil's update-script, but it doesn't seem to be working. Does the update-script have to be done manually, or is there an automatic generator?
I've tried and tried, and I can't seem to get it to work. Could somebody either link me to an update-scipt generator, or help me build an update-script? I'd be so grateful

Borrowing bootanimation.zips from the Galaxy Nexus..

So I wanted an appropriately shiny boot animation for my newly Fresh-rommed Evo, and I found this page:
http://droidmodderx.com/galaxynexus/how-to-install-100s-of-bootanimations-for-your-galaxy-nexus (Full of previews, will bog your computer down!)
That phone has the same screen resolution, 720 x 1280, so most of these seem to work for me. I didn't bother with flashing them from recovery, as the bootanimation.zip file can be easily extracted and placed in /system/media using Root Explorer. Your mileage may vary. I am using Spyro at the moment, nice ICS-ish colors.
SOME of them did not work, or rather they worked, with intermittent flashes of a white screen..I am not sure but suspect it's something to do with frame rate? Anyone?
Updates.................
Directories: Your individual rom maker may have put the animation package in one of several locations. These include:
/system/media
/system/customize/resource
/data/local
I have seen still other locations used on my old EVO 4G (and new roms are coming out all the time), so if you just cannot find anything, try doing a search for 'animation.zip' from the root level, with your file browser.
Filenames: Your rom maker may have used one of several slightly different name variants for the bootanimation.zip package; it really depends on what they started out with as a base. Sense-based roms, for example, will tend to change things up. You might have an 'HTC_bootup_one.zip' instead of a 'bootanimation.zip'. You can't go wrong by naming your new package the exact same thing, and putting it in the same folder. (BUT you also have the option of deleting all oddly named animation packages you find in odd locations on your phone, and just using the standard 'bootanimation.zip' and putting it in /system/media. This is the Android standard location, and it will almost certainly look there if it can't find it elsewhere. Note that if you do this and fail to find and delete the other package, it will still use the other instead.)
Permissions: You shouldn't need to change permissions on the package file, at least that's never been an issue for me. If you are having problems there, I'd suggest trying the standard 644 setting one usually finds in the system folder, or RW-R--R--. (As long as the file is Readable by the owner, I would think that it would work.)
I can't delete or change these files! You may be using ES File Explorer, which is not the easiest app to drive. It requires root permission being set in its settings, and if you don't do that, hilarity can ensue. (I again recommend Root Explorer by Speed Software, which is not free but gives the most straightforward file browsing experience you can imagine, a big plus if you're new to rummaging around in your phone's innards!)
You absolutely cannot play with this stuff without root, so don't even try, okay? And when you want to change anything in a root-level folder, you will need to remember to set that folder RW (read/write), and then remember to set it back to RO (read only) when you are done, yes? You smart folks already know these things, I just want to make this post as complete as possible.
But I need MORE animations! I found the link above by googling 'bootanimation.zip 720x1280' so have at it!
If you've any more questions, please ask..
Worked great for me, thanks!
-Mike
What about activating sound?

Click to expand...

Well, if you want sound and the animation doesn't include it, it is possible to add any fairly short sound in .ogg format to the same /system/media folder, and call it with an edit to the bootanimation.zip file. (You'll need to call it from the desc.txt file inside the zip.)
Say you have a sound picked out and converted, and it's called evoboot.ogg. Your desc.txt will need to include the line:
s evoboot.ogg
There are some tutorials on building these animations from scratch, if you look around on here, like http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1420991

I use the same rom. The file is in system/customize/resource. You have to rename the bootanimation to hTC_bootup_one.zip. Also don't forget to make the permissions match.
I am very much looking forward to trying some of these out tomorrow when I get off of work!! I've read through the two guides on making your own and implementing your own sound files. These sound very exciting as well, but I feel they are over my head still. I am going to pace myself a bit and wait to try them.. but soon I will try.. But for now there are just so many to choose from.

Could you expand on how to make permissions match. I found two files in that directory that has me confused. One is hTC_bootup.zip and one is SPC_bootanimation.zip. Which do I change? Also it seems that I can't delete the spc one to put the zip I downloaded in its place. Am I making this harder than it really is?

Got what? Can anyone elaborate?
I'm wanting to know this too, because I tried some other boot animations from an HTC ONE series phone, and it didn't work.
These were mentioned here on the boards earlier, and I tried to use a flashable "beats" BA, but it did not work. Also tried the "suckerpunch" BA manually by going into system/customize/resource, and THAT did not work either.
A guide would be greatly appreciated, and a sticky should be made for boot animations, as well as splash screens.

Where did those animations come from that you mentioned? Cause i doubt the names are correct for this phone
Sent From My Sweet Ass EVO LTE
Okay. First go download the boot animation that you like from:
http://tinyurl.com/co9ulfv Not sure if you can post the full links here but at least this one is clickable?
(One of the bootanimations I clicked on was bogus so use your brain. The next three brought me right to the file download without visiting a website first.) Then go into ES file explorer and go into settings and make it writable by placing a check next to Root Explorer and Mount File System. Next I found the downloaded file and clicked into it and clicked Data then local and found the actual boot animation zip and copied it to the root of the SD card so it would be easy to find. After that I renamed that file to SPC_bootanimation.zip. Now you go into system/customize/resource and delete the file labeled as SPC_bootanimation.(I saved a copy first and this must be done before you copy the file you're pasting in there. Don't know why but once I copied I couldn't delete the stock _bootanimation.zip file). Then I went back to the sd card and copied the renamed SPC_bootanimation file and pasted it in the resource directory where i deleted the original. Bingo, reboot and you will see your new animation. I did all of these steps in ES File Explorer.
Your folder may be in system/media depending on which rom you're using. I am on stock/ ultra smooth lscape Rosie by flex360.
P.S. the way I was messing up first was I was trying to rename the file I downloaded to spc_bootanimation not the bootanimation.zip file located inside of that original download in the Data/Local directory.
Also, I'm not an English major by any means, so if something is spelled incorrectly or the proper grammar wasn't used, sorry. I'm not looking for a lesson just looking to help out. heck if it's bad enough, just click on the donation tab next to my name and maybe I can afford some classes.
I'm using the bluplazmall boot animation. Looks really good.

what you looking for?
Ok maybe I'm just retarded, or just a little rusty on my adb. Tried this in RootExplorer, didn't work. Tried it using adb, didn't work either. It's saying /system is mounted as Read-Only. I tried an app called SUFBS and made sure that it was mounted as Read-Write, and it failed. In adb, I'm navigating to the correct folder, "adb devices" to make sure it's showing up, "adb remount" which is succeeding, then "adb push SPC_bootanimation.zip /system/customize/resource/" and it's giving the Read-only error. I'm running ViperRom 1.2.1 and am S-Off. Anybody got any pointers? Oh and btw, I did extract the bootanimation.zip from the .zip file I downloaded from the website in the op.
I am curious what root explorer is saying when in that directory..does the button at the top allow you to set it RW?
It's not showing an icon for rw or anything. May be a different, crappier version? It's the one that came with ViperROM. That SUFBS app is very similar, and I chose rw in it, found the bootanimation.zip file on my sd card, moved it to /system/customize/resource, and it showed it moving the file, but it never showed up.
Edit: It's RootBrowser. Nonetheless, SUFBS is essentially the same thing. I'm curious though why I can mount as read-write in that app, yet adb says its read-only.

Ugly status bar icon

Hi everyone just picked up this phone coming from a rezound.I'm brand new to att and I've never see this icon before,it's the one to the left of the alarm clock.I've already unlocked and rooted so if I need to edit the build prop that's not a problem.any one know what this ugly icon is?

It's the NFC notification.
You can turn NFC off in settings and the notification goes away. Just turn it on when you want to use it.

I had several phones with NFC and none of them showed this ugly symbol. Must be a HTC thing. The worst is that Google Wallet is anyway deactivated by AT&T. So it is pretty useless except for exchanging data with Google beam.
Does anyone know how to remove the icon from the status bar without disabling NFC?
I found a thread about disabling it on the Galaxy Note II, but it doesn't work for the One X+.
This is what you do on the Note:
"This can be edited in the feature.xml file (located in "/system/csc/feature.xml") under the NFC the Statusbaricontype should be changed from ATT to none."
Perhaps there's a similar method for us.

The process isn't exactly similar, but the icon can indeed be replaced. The icon is found in the Nfc.apk package in /system/apps. Open Nfc.apk with the archive manager of your choice and replace the stat_sys_nfc_vzw.png file located in res/drawable-hdpi with an icon that is a bit more pleasing to the eye (I've opted for a transparent image myself). I've attached my modified Nfc.apk; it is from an AT&T HOX+ so I can only recommend using it with that variant (but who knows!).

You can either use adb and the push command. Or you can use a file explorer, delete the original first, then copy the new one over. Finally set it's permissions to rwx-rxx-rxx.

Hmm...I'm using Root Browser Lite (I currently don't have access to a computer with the Android SDK installed). I deleted the original Nfc.apk, and it seems to have removed the app from the phone (or uninstalled it, I suppose), however the original .apk still appears in the /system/app/ directory according to both Root Browser Lite and OI File Manager. Furthermore, when I try to copy the modified Nfc.apk, I get a message saying that a file by that name already exists, so I just ask the phone to overwrite the existing file. It starts thinking about it for a minute or two, then says that the operation failed.
As it stands, I have the original file in the original location,albeit unistalled and no way to install it, as I get the "App was not installed" Message when I try to install it.
This may be a dumb question, but am I able to use the Terminal Emulator app to issue the adb command you suggested? If not, Do you have any other suggestions to get me out of this hole I've dug myself into?
Edit: I've succesfully moved the edited file to the correct location!!! I used ES File Explorer. However....I still can't install. I've done everything including changing the permsissions....it just won't install.

I've done both of those things now, and still the NFC options don't show up in the menu. It makes the menu look rather lonely.
Just wondering if any further developments have been made regarding this issue. It makes me sad every time I think about how my phone is probably one of the only HOX+s out there that's incapable of using its NFC hardware.

Ok so something odd just happened..

Yesterday I put some roms on my sdcard of the phone. I then installed and aosp rom but the camera didn't work so I installed Trickdroid 5.4.0 instead. Today I just went to put a different rom on the sdcard and I noticed that some of my folders were missing that I added. There is a folder now called 0. That's it, just 0 and all my folders are inside that. There are also some of the same folders in that folder on my root storage with the same exact name but empty. Wtf? Anyone have any idea how that happened?

They just get locked.

Yesterday I put some roms on my sdcard of the phone. I then installed and aosp rom but the camera didn't work so I installed Trickdroid 5.4.0 instead. Today I just went to put a different rom on the sdcard and I noticed that some of my folders were missing that I added. There is a folder now called 0. That's it, just 0 and all my folders are inside that. There are also some of the same folders in that folder on my root storage with the same exact name but empty. Wtf? Anyone have any idea how that happened?

Same exact scenario with me I'm confused. TWRP recovery doesn't detect my old backups cause of the Damm 0. I'm still trying to sort this out. I don't want to deal with /sdcard0 then have all my new pictures or files being stored at a new location.

Gogogo copypasta:
0 is intentional. Android 4.2.2 added the ability for multi-user support, and it divides up the internal storage accordingly. "0" belongs to the first user, "1" belongs to the second... so on and so forth. Pull what files you want to keep out of the 0 folder and onto your computer then delete it. As long as you stay on pre-4.2.2 ROMs, it won't resurface. Even if it did, it's not that big of a deal since that's where we're heading anyway with Android development.

What is /system/dirty_file_record?

It just said 'hosts' a few times, the file name of a ringtone I transfered to the root of storage a while back, and some other files I'd transfered there. I deleted it's content thinking it wouldn't do anything and that I was cleaning up because it was a short file that didn't seem to be anything other than a list of files I'd transfered.
Oh, and in doing that I made it so my phone won't boot. Just recovery and fastboot and stuff.
Any ideas on what this is and what it contains so I can fix it?
Thanks!

OK, so for anyone who may need to know: I believe it is put there by SuperSU Pro when you enable Root Survival. That's just an educated guess, but don't modify it or delete it
