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.

I am another new android user and having confusion on Rooting and changing to custom rom.
1. Does rooting make my phone able to download pay apps for free? like jail breaked iphone?
2. I have used the superoneclick on my phone lastnight. But other than seeing the SuperUser app in my page I don't see anything else different. Have I successfully rooted my phone?
3. What does the SuperUser app do for me? I've got into it and I have no idea what to do with that app.
4. Can I describe custom rom as a custom MODed UI?
5. I've googled and read a lot on different ROM. but is there any site that you guys can suggest me which has all of the popular review on roms?
1. no, pirate
2. yes
3. nothing, just give apps access to system files.
4. no
5. Here. read the stickies and the specific rom threads they describe what is changed on each rom.
Thx nunyazz,
Is there any way to pirate those apps?
Do we allow to talk about pirating apps in this forum?

None that i know of. Maybe with some apk editing we can fix that, but i don't know. Ray's screen is too perfect that all the text is too small..

Hi all. I am really excited to install custom ROM in other thread. But I don't want to lose my apps and settings. Is there a way to backup and restore them after flashing? You know, need not an hour to do that. Thanks.

You can download an app from the market such as titainium backup or my backup, that will back up all your apps and data, once you install your rom download the app from the market again and restore. All of your apps will be restored
There are a few paid and none paid apps in market, I use paid version of titainium backup but i have used my backup in the past

if your phone is rooted, you can edit file /system/build.prop. at string ro.sf.lcd_density=240 (9 from bottom) and change density to 260 or 280, than ALL text elements will slightly bigger. need reboot after changing.
Well frankly i don't think the messaging fonts are smaller... It's quite comfortable...
That lcd build.prop method was very common in Sensation section... but there we used to decrease it to 204 and with that you get 5x5 application drawer inn HTC sense...,don't know how it will behave here...
secondly, users reported that some market applications show incompatible if you change lcd density...

Hi Gents
I have my phone rooted with unlocked bootloader and i use stock rom .42 with Doomkernel.
Now when I connect my Ray to PC, PC Companion says that new firmware is available for my phone (.62). Do you know what would happen if I would start updating through PC Companion? Brick? Loosing root? Nothing? Simply updating? What is your oppinion about that? Thanks for support.

Changing launcher

i´m having some trouble with changing the launcher components....

i already did it some time ago...but now i can´t get it to work again and this file doesn´t exist anymore
my steps are:
- open .apk in betterzip
- take out some .png and change it
- replace the .png
- save the .apk
- sign it
- install
- error, app not installed
i did some searches and found something about deleting the files of the "META-INF" folder, but that didn´t work either
i guess it´s related to the launcher not just being a launcher but also a system-file or something
so...what am i doing wrong?

Just put the apk in system/app change permission to rw-r-r and restart.
you mean copy / paste with a file manager or install??
and why change the permission? the original launcher has other permissions (i´m just curious)
/e: oh ****, it worked
thx man!
can it do it the same way when modding the framework-res.apk?

Hello people,
So I had rooted my phone, installed cwm recovery and then installed this custom ROM BouDzDroid v.2 for GT-S5830i on my Samsung Galaxy Ace GT-S5830i.
Installed from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2061547
I had also created a Titanium backup in case i felt like going back to any of the stock applications.
So the ROM is really cool and all but i lost a major application which i almost can't do without, SWYPE.
So i restored using my titanium backup but its not working properly, this message keeps showing, "process com.swype.android.inputmethod has stopped unexpectedly". I tried going to cwm and fixing permissions but it still doesn't work.
I really want Swype back. Can you guys tell me what to do? Like can someone make a Swype patch for this that i can install on this ROM?

You should have asked this question in BouDzDroid's thread or in Question and Answer section... Now you know for the next time
Anyway, for your question, you can try a 3rd-party app like SwiftKey or TouchPal Keyboard for swipe keyboard function - they use less space than stock Swype.apk

Yeah so i tried substitutes. But SwiftKey, SlideIt all are paid applications, the trial versions are stupid. So now im using Touchpal. Its really good but its just toooo bulky and i need to save up on internal memory. I dont have enough access to post in developer's thread but i've PMed him for now.
Thanks anyway

that's because, if a keyboard is not in the internal memory, you have to set it as your keyboard every time, anyway if you want you can move it to your sd card with Link2SD.

I wouldn't recommend move keyboards, launchers to link2SD, when I had swype in my SD took years to show up than in the internal.

ok i had similar problem like yours. heres the solution.
Swype app may should be in System not in Internal or Sd, and you must add LIB files to System if you want that to be working otherwise it always will be force closing.
1.Change extension of Swype.apk to Swype.zip
2.Open that archive and extract LIB files which have .so
3.change Swype.zip to Swype.apk
4.Move Swype.apk to System/App
5.Move Extracted Lib Files to System/Lib
6.Reboot and Enjoy
