I have NEVER had to type system/bin before sensorcalibutil_yahama.

What does the zip file do?

Flashable zip?
*edit* nevermind I just peeked inside the zip.
For post above me, you flash through clockwork, and it flashes the calibration tool needed.
And btw its no included at all in gb, hence the need for this to be flashed
Sent from my SPH-D700

ran the calibration tool and it made no difference

No difference here either. Doesn't really bother me much tho.

Guess they thought gingerbreads version would work? So no difference huh?
Well thanks for getting this still Marcusant.

Just a thought, but wouldn't you need the other files that go with it? If i knew how to compile one of these zips, i would edit it and see if it worked >.>
/system/bin/sensorcalibutil_yamaha
/system/bin/sensorserver_yamaha

I would think you could just download a rom open it up with winrar and copy it out and post it with credits and permission of coarse, just to be safe

Well the reason i mentioned the 3 files, is that sensorcalibutil_yamaha was the only file that's flashed in this fix. Hence why it might not work? Again, i know nothing of fixes and development on Android, but from a programming perspective, i would say they're dependent files...
Who knows... If anyone feels like taking the time to re-create this fix with the files listed, it just may work. =\

Drag them into the zip and post it. Trust me, Marcusant probably doesn't mind the whole permission thing.

Hot Boot Feature

IHTFP69 was nice enough to prepare a hot boot patch for us Virtuous users. This is based on version 3.1 - flash at your own risk. Don't forget to nandroid first!!! Flash in Clockwork Mod and you'll have reboot in your power menu with 4 options (Recovery, Bootloader, Normal and Hot Boot).
It's in snq's reboot mod its just broken

I use the hot reboot all the time and it works in the HD rom.
Redemption Revolution has a working hot reboot. Believe Redemption ROM does too. Ask Lou.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
You can buy it on the market, or use SkyRaider3.3 which has hibernate as well. I go back and forth between SR and stock with the 3-in-1 reboot feature and the hot reboot from the market.
That thread you posted worked great. Any idea how to change up the icons?
If I were to supply the icons, would someone be able to swap them out? I'm assuming the icons are embedded in the jar file... if anyone can guide on where I can find out how to edit the jar file, I'd appreciate it. The jar file is all that I am pushing to my phone and the icons are still changing on the power menu so they must be in there somewhere.
Help a guy learn! ;p
The actual system icons are only in framework-res.apk and no where else. For Sense roms, there are also some in com.htc.resources.apk. There are only references to them in the framework (jar) files.
Holy ****... how in the hell is it possible that flashing that hotboot zip in the thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=792542
I flashed that and all of my icons were different... black and white only and different graphics. I'll post a screenshot shortly.
Here we go.. Is the jar file maybe referencing different png files?
Edit: can't upload this format. I'll convert it when I'm on the computer.

you should be able to extract them from one of the RUU's already posted. I'd send you mine off my pone but I can't (read: don't have the time to **** around with it) from work.

Closing thread upon OP's request.

Modify hosts file?

Currently I am using firefly 2.9 and I have been trying to remove stats.wordpress from the blocked list so that I can receive stats on my wordpress site. I modified the file and copied it to the system/ect folder but it won't replace the old file.
I've tried deleting the old version and copying the new modified version in its place, but the old file keeps coming back! I've tried to match the permissions of the new file to the original but the settings don't stick.
Anyone have a suggestion?
Thanks!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using Tapatalk
Try doing it through adb:
copy the hosts file to your sd card, do whatever modifications you want on it, then do:
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/stl9 /system
cp /sdcard/hosts /system/etc
sync
reboot
or optionally, you can push it through clockwork as an update.zip
Clockwork sounds like the way I'd like to go... Do I just zip the file and call it update.zip? Or is there more to it than that? (i would assume)
I would do the adb method, but I have had bad luck with that in the past.
Thanks
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using Tapatalk
There's more to it than that; it has to have a specific structure and an update script. Here's a guide:
http://www.robmcghee.com/android/creating-an-android-update-zip-package/
You don't need to sign it, so you can skip that step.
Okay thanks! I'll try to mess with it tomorrow.
Thanks again!

[Tool][1-20-12]Stock App Installer

Here it is, a stock app installer!!!
What is this?
This is an all in one tool to install any stock app that was removed with GingerVolt. This will only work on a deodexed rom with my Blitzkrieg kernel or stock kernel that came with GingerVolt. If there are any problems, please let me know! Some apps may not like being dodexed and in turn not work. I make no promises on the apps working once installed, I just provided them and a tool to make it easier. Also, GingerVolt Rom includes the App Widget Picker, so the LG widgets will work on any launcher!!!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
How do I use this?
1.) Download the .zip & extract
2.) Make sure drivers are installed
3.) Connect phone and put phone in Internet Connection mode
4.) Open folder
5.) Run StockAppInstaller.bat
6.) Follow options to install whichever apps you want
7.) Reboot when done

You may have to delete the alarm clock app in the rom first with root explorer. It may just not overwrite it.

I am having trouble locating the file I would need to copy. I thought it was alarm.apk but I cannot check the stock install because I do not have the tools to access my backup system.img
Any ideas? I could have sworn it was alarm.apk on the stock image.

Yes, there are some tutorials about how to make your own apps. For example, what I did to begin was to take an existing an App (SDL for windows 95 emu), change something in it and then rebuld the app. It worked on my old Optimus 2x. We could try to build simple zips and see how they behave.
I don't know exactly how far you can go if you're thinking about chanching the system, but don't try it too hard until we get some material to work with.
If you want, PM me and we could try to begin that way (I suppose we we both have the O4X)
