[Q] Does the folder data/securedStorageLocation/dtcp/adunits exist? - Fire HD 6 and 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Could someone who is rooted please tell me if you have this folder? It should contain the lockscreen ads on "Special Offers" Fire HDs, but will probably exist even if you don't have ads.
I'm modifying a script that replaces lockscreen ads with personal pics to work on the Fire HDs, and this info will help a lot. Thanks!

Yes, I dumped the folder for you and uploaded it below, in case you want to take a look its mostly just images of all of the ads that were displayed. Sounds interesting, good luck!

Thanks . . . this is great news! The script was written for 2013 KFHD, but since folders are in the correct (same) location it will work "as is" on the Fire HDs. If you want more info I can pm you a link to the Readme and video and you can decide if you want to download the zip. Let me know.
FYI, the zip contains batch files, so the code is "transparent." Basically, this simply replaces the ad images in those adunits subfolders with your own jpg images. It's fun seeing your own pics cycle on the lockscreen!

Hacked Framework.jar

Since apparently BN is still changing framework.jar, I'm making a thread to allow separate updates/downloads. framework.jar for 1.0.0 is already in market hack/autonooter/autoconfig
1.0.0 - http://www.mediafire.com/?1wb78ollpb1bd78
1.0.1 - http://www.mediafire.com/?37fugab7xo8s3j3
This framework.jar helps you get an Android ID when you first run the Market. You can replace it with the stock version once your market is working if you want, but leaving it shouldn't cause any issues either.
Um, this thread is remarkably empty.
Thank you for your work!
Not having to generate ID's manually is better than awesome ...
What did you have to change in Framework.jar I know your hacked version works. I'd just like to understand why.

Google requests a valid phone ID and phone type when assigning an Android ID. Tablets tend to have neither, so Google doesn't assign an ID. It spoofs a valid phone type and ID so that Google is happy and will send you back an ID.

Thanks. That makes sense now.
Can somebody post the stock version of either of the two files from the OP? I'm trying to get this working on the eLocity tab and, since I'm no developer, I need to compare the two files to see what Clockworx change... and therefore, what I should try changing in our framework.
Thanks!

Here it is if you want to take a shot.
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?dd9zif5h89ve7mz
I would back up your stock one and ensure you can restore it, just in case.
This might not be the place or already covered, but is it possible to make the big button in the notification bar not pop up the B&N Soft Buttons? I tend to hit that far too often.
Personally if it was gone, or did nothing, I'd be happy. I can launch the apps from ADW myself, they're all individual apps anyway.

clockworx,
can i replace framework.jar from slide_update.zip (BN 1.0.1) with yours
and also what i said in your other thread (supernooter) and then flash the ereader.
I am asking too many questions as i dont want to end up with an over sized 7" ice scraper...
I'm in the same spot as JeepFreak, but mine's a Cruz Reader.
If i upload the framework.jar can you mod it?
P.S. its Eclair-2.0 otherwise i'd try and use an existing copy off the web.

Are you using a custom firmware for it? I could have sworn someone had already done it for the CR over at Slatedroid. If not, feel free to upload and link.

We actually ended up getting the eLocity going without using the modified framework.jar.

nope, stock firmware, I've been trying to re-create the custom firmware that Velocity Micro made for it, but I'm having trouble figuring out exactly what settings they used for the kernel config. I'd like to eventually roll my own firmware image and update the device to either Éclair-2.1 or Froyo-2.2, but that will be awhile.
Until just now I'd never heard of Slatedroid, so i wouldn't know if anyone has succeeded over there or not. I've tried searching using Yahoo, Google and others to no avail, so...
here's the framework.jar, pulled from the most recent firmware update
(version 091257)
'mediafire'/?c76hrb1awmtc4mq
sorry 'bout the link being butchered, I'm a new user and it won't let me post links.
thanks in advance
Edit:I found the post at Slatedroid, but he's using a modded Cruz 102/103 Tablet firmware with Éclair-2.1, and until I get my own rom cooked, I'm going to try and stay as 'stock' as possible. besides, i don't know if the Cruz 103 firmware will work on the reader.
On another note, would it be possible to pre-mod the file in question if you were building from source?
and if so, what modifications would need to be made?

I am working with others in another thread to determine why nootering the NC removes the access to B&N instore features.
We have been trying changes to the build.prop file but this does not seem to help. My thought is that something is changed in the framework.jar file that when instore B&N checks to see if the device is a NC. Is this a plausible thought? Can you share what lines in the hacked framework.jar are different that the stock NC framework.jar? Would it be possible to change these lines back to stock after nootering to gain access to the instore features?
Also, could changes in framework.jar also expalin why the market on NC does not have access to some apps?

Anything is possible since we don't know what they're doing, but it seems unlikely BN would check phone type and phone ID when on a regular nook they probably both return "invalid". Before you go through the trouble of investigating deeper, I suggest taking the engineering approach and change one variable: push back a stock framework.jar and see if the store works. If it does, then it's the framework.jar. If it doesn't, then it's something else.

No, that would be the fingerprint needed in build.prop, which I thought had already been solved and was part of Autonooter.

Thanks for the idea! Do you have or know where to find a stock framework.jar?
As for the fingerprint issue, we have tried returning the rooted NC fingerprint back to the stock fingerprint with no success. When replicating the stock build.prop file on a rooted NC, instore features still do not work and some apps are still not available in the market.

[Q] Replace dialer on rooted phone

Hi, i'm using the Synergy ROM and love it. The only thing i don't like is the default screen that comes up when the phone rings (in this case it's a big VirusROM logo). I would like to change this to either the stock screen, or perhaps one from another ROM.
From what I can tell, I need to find the PHONE.APK file from the ROM I want and then add it to the phone. What I cannot find is instructions on how to successfully replace the file that is already on the phone. Based on some threads I've read, I assume a simple drag and drop won't work.
Or, maybe there is an easier way? I use GO Contacts as my dialer, the only thing i'm really looking to change is the large picture that shows up for any contact who does not have a pic associated (none of my contacts have pics, so it comes up for every call for me).
Any advice/suggestions appreciated. If I missed this information in an obvious place, I apologize.
Use Ninjamorph (on your phone) or apk tools on your computer to replace /system/app/Phone.apk/res/drawable-hdpi/picture_unknown.png with whatever you want.
Thanks! Is there a certain file size or resolution that the file needs to be?

Yes. If there's a theme that has an image already made for it that you would rather have, you can just replace with it since it would already be sized appropriately. Otherwise, there should be several themeing guides that walk you through how to extract the apk, create the replacement images, replace them, and recompress. Just look for some good themeing guides. I don't have any links handy but they shouldn't be difficult to find.
Got it, thanks so much for your quick and thorough assistance

Q Wallpapers from Zedge something odd?

Quick question anyone using zedge to get wallpapers for the evo 3d? Why when you download the JPG and you run a virus scanner on it shows there is 2 files. Tho there is only one JPG.
I use zedge and will have to check this out now thanks for the heads up

Ya im trying to figure out why that is. You download a JPG you want then when you scan it or scan it be4 downloading it shows it having two files. As far as I know a JPG is one file unless there is something hidden in it.
Hi,
I work at Zedge and asked the main developer about the issue.
We do not download 2 files and we're not sure why you find two files.
If you are using the recovery tool in-app and we can't find any information about one of the pictures we make a new file so we don't have to try again later. But that is only after you use the recovery-tool.
Keep us updated if you find out something more
Sincerely,
Matias

It could be that it downloads the main jpg then crops it to fit our screen thus creating two files. I like and use zedge, great app.

I'll take a pic of it . I was downloading them to my pc and noticed my AntiVirus showed the jpg having two files I thought that was weird. I was using the Microsoft AntiVirus program I always scan before downloading and opening files.
I just thought it was a odd thing . I know jpgs can contain viruses the file from zedge was clean no virus found just weird it has two files. Thanks again for lookin into it.
It's clean its a issue with windows sayin it has two files. Booted into fedora Linux and went into depth of the file all is clean no issues . Anyways thanks again.

[Q] ***SOLVED*** My HTML Website Not Visible On Android ***SOLVED***

***SOLVED THANK YOU mohit1234 ***
Hello everyone. I recently recoded the HTML on my two websites. The sites show up perfectly on PC, Macs and iPhones but when I go to the sites on an Android device, all I see is the background colour of the website. The .jpg in the center of both pages is not visible at all.
I'm not sure if it has to do with the pixel size of the images (1024x768 which is pretty standard) as per what WebKit can deal with for smaller screens of mobile devices (although the sites show up on iPhone so maybe this isn't the issue), the positioning of the image (centered), or have I missed the boat on extra code I need to add regularly to sites nowadays since surfing the net on phones has become more of a regular thing?
As a new member of XDA, I am not allowed to post links in my questions yet. Please respond and I will link you to the sites if you even need me to.

I just saw the source code of the websites, and both seem to be just a plain image. However the code doesn't look well coded There are some issues. (not sure if those are because of your html files or the "view page source" option in Chrome).
Firstly there is no need for CSS as u have only one image. Just center align the image. Put the image within the body tag. And put the bgcolor in the body tag.
If you need help, PM me the html files and I'll fix it for you

Won't be a problem with flash. The website doesn't have any flash. Plus if it did, it wudnt work on the iPhone
For some reason a background image doesn't want to show at all. I tried css code from W3Schools similar to what you had and also tried the old school HTML background and neither wanted to work in Dolphin.

I have already tried cleaning up the HTML and uploading new files to the site but I just end up re-uploading that old file, which I agree is not coded very well, because when I upload a cleaner HTML file I see a question mark in a blue box where the .jpg should be when I go the websites. At least with the old file uploaded I just see the background colour and not a blue box with a question mark in it. Which adds to the mystery even more. I was doing exactly what you suggested yesterday before anyone had even replied here.

And now, to add to the confusion, I downloaded Opera Mobile and the websites look fine in that browser. So they look normal in Opera Mobile, but not in the stock browser or Dolphin HD. This is very strange. Could it have to do with the size of the image being loaded? I know Opera applies compression so this is all I can think of.

The box with the question mark is usually due to the image being missing or if the link to the image is wrong or its unable to access the image. The size of the images won't matter. I've viewed much larger images with no issues on the stock browser. I tried it on Miren Browser, but that didn't work either.
One thing you could do is, instead of using another host for images, why don't you keep the images with the html files and change the image URL to the name of jpg. Not sure if that would work, but you can give it a shot.

[Q] Timely alarm clock as ringtone?

Any chance you could re-post that zip file? The only other way to get the sound files appears to be extracting the apk and I'm not sure I know enough to do that successfully.
You can find timely apk file on your device (in /data/app folder), select it and choose to extract (apk is a package like a zip file). All sounds in ogg format are in res/raw folder

I'm pretty crushed that they've stopped supporting Timely, it really was the greatest Alarm Clock Android has ever seen.
Personally I can't find the .apk file on my phone, but I've found a few other places on the net where it can be downloaded and extracted.
There's even a SoundCloud playlist (I can't post links yet, sorry)
The trick for Dalia (My favorite as well) is that the actual file name is "la_gitar.ogg". I had to listen to them all to find which one it was.
Several others have different names in the app versus the actual file name.
Hope this info helps others.
Cheers!
But.....
Could you tell me where you found the file? I've searched, and still can't find it
Thank you for the help! It's very sad that Timely is no longer supported, best clock app on Android, have been using it for years! 5 plus easy! But at least now I can use the alarm sound I'm used to.
