[Q] preload rom settings - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I want to edit the setting on the rom
which files do I have to edit inside the rom zip?
settings such as set USB settings to Mass storage from Samsung Kies, turning off GPS and Auto rotation on first boot.
I dont want to have to load the setting from an apps, I want to have the setting the way I want it after it first boot.
Basically have the setting slipstream into the rom, that way when I flash the rom, all the settings is already the way I want it.

[Q] How to put any email adress to Rom?

After every Rom flash i dont want to re enter Gmail account and other email accounts? Is there any script that i can put in a Rom and when i flash, i dont need to setup them again.
Second question: When i flash a new Rom every time GPS is automatically ON.
How to turn it to OFF from ROM itself by editing scripts.
I am pretty sure there is no way to include such information in a rom, since it requires gaining authorization from outside sources. Also, when you try to restore system info via Titanium, it causes a flood of FCs.
You just need to go through the process manually, I fear.
is there anyway to import such things after flashed rom without using any backup
utility.
We can import contacts from a csv, i mean something as easy as this.

CyanogenMod system setting recovery?

If I'm changing ROM and want to save the system settings, how do I do that?
Witch files have the settings what I have to save?
Is there an app that do this?
If not, how do you do this?
Can you help me to make a zip to install after flashing a ROM so I get the settings from the ROM before?
Like an zipfolder there I can change the setting files with my own so they will remain in the update. A update after the flash that install my settings, maybe with a2sd and build.prop, gps.conf and so on.
every rom have different method for saving system data
and we should not restore one rom's system data to another one it can cause instability like Bluetooth not working tethering not working or mobile bootloop

[Q] LockScreen application shortcuts missing from LSA

Hi, I've noticed Android 4.1.1 had quick shortcuts to apps in the lockscreen. 4.1.2 doesn't seem to have that. how can I get it back?
post in question thread
And do a search before posting.
go into settings - lock screen - lock screren options and enable it
stock lsa not having such type of settings
lock screen shortcuts were removed from LSA
to get them, check here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1983565 or here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2008480
Robbie Hood got a thread in development section. Basically, you'll have to download ROM Customiser and CustomsSettings.apk and put it in your internal sd card. Flash the latter through the former (ROM Customiser) as a system app. Close ROM Customiser and open it again. Go to ROM settings>lockscreen shortcuts.
thank you
thank you all, the 1st method from this thread worked for me http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1983565
i have a problem though
hm.. how to i get rid of the tip that shows me all the time how to use those shortcuts?
Titanium backup or app quarantine and freeze Help.apk or you can use ES file explorer. Go to the root >system app and delete Help.apk.
eventually
well i finally managed to fixed it, by flashing Ultimate ROM and flashing a fix it was provided in rom's update application (i flashed the fix twice)

[Q] About Customizing Stock ROM

Hello. I am using Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000, N7000ZSLR1, Android 4.1.2 Hong Kong version. There are something I am not quite satisfied with the ROM, I have rooted my device with Chinese one key root app so I wonder if there are some ways to customize the ROM.
1. The first thing is Notification screen. In this Android 4.1.2, when you pull it down, the shortcuts at the top will first display the tiles in picture 1, then it will automatically swipe to picture 2:
Picture 1:
Picture 2:
Is there any method that can modify / remove tiles at the top? Or at least make it like picture 2 in default when I pull down, no swiping.
2. In this ROM, the Task Manager no longer display in app drawer like Android 2.3.6, instead I need to long press Home button to go to "Recent App" screen and tap the pie chart icon at the lower left corner to open Task Manager. I'm curious, the system app is in \system\app, and it IS an .apk. So I wonder if I can at least make a shortcut from it and add to "Home Screen", I always need to use it and I don't want to download third party app for this shortcut.
Recent Apps screen:
View in ES File Explorer:
3. The default Launcher in the stock ROM is TouchWizHome, and by default there are no indication when you tap an icon to open the app. So I wonder if I can add some "effect" to notify me when I open an app, like dim the icon or glow at the edge of icon.
4. If you are a Titanium Backup user, please tell me that should I wipe system apps' data first before uninstall it. Because it always gives me a feeling of "unclean" if I don't wipe the data before uninstall it. I always uninstall system app to keep my phone slimmer and faster.
Thank you in advance.
first, to change anything with the user interface aka UI your rom must be deodexed, so you need to create a deodexed rom from this rom or look for it in a chinease android forum (defnitely you will find it).
once your rom is deodexed, you can flash one of AryaMod or Sweet rom mods to change the interface, i think most of them will work because of the same framework but make a full backup because they might not work.
if you only need to change the order of quick toggles in the notification panel i think you can do it from settings >> display
or you can make your own mods following one of the awesome guides in this forum but that will take you time and you may face bootloops

How about question 2 and 4?
2/ i think there is a resizable widget of the task manager, all you have to do is place it in your home screen and when you click on it it will open the task manager. i have no idea about how to make the task manager appear in the app drawer but sure there is a way to do it.
4/ yes i always use titanium backup to backup and restore my non-cloud-based apps but not from and to different android version. never restore for example apps that were backed up on jellybean to kitkat or any other android version cuz this will cause force-close and other problems. whenever you are going to install new rom just wipe /preload and /system (/data partition will be wiped automatically when you make wipe data - factory reset) this way you will leave no trace of old system apps data, config, cache or anything.
don't uninstall system apps just freeze them using titanium backup or directly from app settings if you are on ics or above. if you removed an important system app like google contact sync that you may think not important you may get force-close, unmounted storage, ui crash all the time and similar problems.
Hope i helped you

2/ ...Yes you think, but there is not, if it has then I'll place it at home screen from the start... I just want to know how to make that system app have a shortcut icon...
4/ But won't uninstall create more space for my system? I mean frezzing them will still occupy some space right?

It is just a safety procedure. Freeze the app and use your phone for a few days. If nothing funny happens go ahead and uninstall it to reclaim the space.
If you are absolutely sure the particular app you want to uninstall will not be needed anymore just uninstall it without going thru the freeze time.

Display Overlay - cannot change any app permissions - running droid.riz RR ROM

Hi Guys,
I tried everything, incl. changing all the permissions for display overlay, trying to change permissions in safe mode, etc.
Nothing works -> still having the notification about "display overlay" when I try to change an app permission.
The ROM is smooth, fast and full of nice features - review after several days now. So I would like to stay with it, but....
I did not experience this on the Miui8 ROM. So seems to be ROM related. Have no "special" apps installed, only tried out some features in settings...
Any ideas?
Would dirty flash of the 30/07 update help?
Thanks ;-(
