Is there a way to get the notification bar file? - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I need to know where I can get a copy of the notification bar file for my Captivate? It's running Gingerbread 2.3.6 with UCKF1. I accidentally deleted it. And I thought I could live without it but, it sucks not seeing battery, texts, emails, etc... . Would it be in a backup file somewhere? If so, what would the file name be and where? Sorry for being a bother. And as always, Thanks in advance.

Thanks, I was going to and then I thought maybe there was a way to just reinstall the file instead of a reflash. Just out of curiosity more than anything. I kinda was hoping there was a system file that was already backed up where I could copy or download and then install instead of reflashing the whole ROM. Cool.

Nope, crapware will be back!

market shows only test apps [FIXED]

i really dont know what happened. i cannot find anything. not even my paid apps, nothing really. all i can find is test apps. i was on roto jme4. and i go to the market and get a message saying something like device not comaptible with market please contact maker of device. blah blah...... that's weird because i never had that message before with rotos rom. so i change the fingerprint in the build.prop to no avail. i even went back to my stock t mobile firmware. im not getting that message,but i have no market downloads. not even my apps i paid for. all i get are test apps. what the hell is going on????

sounds like something really screwed with your buildprop, or any other identification of the phone that the market needs. since you already tried to change the fingerprint in buildprop to no solution, i'd suggest to start completely over with JME v4 (= the roto suggested pit file, roto-JMEv4 FULL and repartition enabled). that should factory reset the phone and hopefully eradicate any screwed files.
here Market works like a charm as ever; running JME-v4 with CF-Root

didn't work. i re-downloaded both files
i dumped my system . any dev wants to take a look at it and see whats going on
http://www.mediafire.com/?biy21ctndrl8s23
This same thing was happening on my wifes tab the following steps made it work
-unbreak IMEI by restoring /efs backup
-delete vending.apk from /system/app
-fully reload software (chose roto_v4)
-sign in to market and allow it to update
-Rebroke IMEI
unfortunatly it only worked for about 20 minutes then back to the same problem. Testing now leaving the IMEI unbroken to see if that resolves
i think i found my problem i dont have anything in my efs folder. can someone provide me an efs folder with its contents. i did back up but forgot to take it to my desktop. when i reinstalled roto4 i wiped my internal sd

each efs folder is unique to the tab so i dont think using the folder from somebody else will work.

it doesnt hurt to try. i have no efs folder so what am i suppose to do? i did do a roto backup before the **** hit the fan. can i find my efs folder there?
all i can say is WOOOT WOOOOT!!!!!!!!!! thank god for roto backup. . i basically flashed all my dumps with heimdall. then it rebooted, but it was stuck on the samsung screen. i then put it back into download mode then flashed the tmobile stock firmware. i now have all my paid apps and no more whining about my device not being compatible with the market
My market started to do this today as well. What I did was go into manage applications and found market. I uninstalled updates and cleared data. It has been working like normal for a few hours now.

Hi boricua,
I had this same Issue since yesterday... unafortunately I didn't had the time to work on this until today. Since I don't found no body working with this I started it on my own.
And that's what worked for me: I deleted once again the /efs/ content and get the original files back on place. Then turned on WiFi and turned off Network connections. Then turned off the GT and reboot it and get connected via WiFi and Signed on Google Account via WiFi.... then turned On Networks and deleted the /efs/ contents.
This was just thinking and playing with some logics under the IMEI identification. So this is what worked for me. I didn't get back to stock or reflashed any ROM.
I hope this help you guys. I was monitoring it all day and still working!!!!!
WOOOOOT WOOOOOT!!!!!
im just glad that before i started messing with my tab. i did a rotobackup on my stock rooted jjb rom. lesson to all... rotobackup your tab !!

never did a rotobackup so i am SOL if anything happens to my tab, i dont even remember what FW my tab came with. i tried flashing the t-mobile stock FW that Roto set up but i kept getting a fail message when using ODIN but i am able to flash other FW, it seems that i have a bootloader, but at least my market is up and running again after re-flashing JME v4, dont know if that did it or the market was fixed. i will have to wait and see what happens.

are you hitting the repartition box when you flashing the stock firmware? flash without hitting the repartition box and see what happens.
if you don't do a roto back up then backup your efs folder at least
use this to check if you have a protected boot-loader. double click check and it willl do the rest for you.

[Q] accidentally deleted a TouchWizCalendar.apk

I feel so stupid. Should have backed up before trying to do this, but...
I was trying to upgrade my TouchWiz30Launcher.apk but I gave up, unfortunately, i did rm Touch*.apk. I have no idea what the h311 I was thinking, but luckily I only lost the calculator and the calendar. I found the stock calculator apk and put it back. Works fine, but I am having trouble with the calendar. I was having trouble finding the right one and it foobared the app. It is no longer in the installed list and not executable anymore.
ANY help would be appreciated. Freaking out a bit as I like my calendar. Gahhh!
Thanks all.

I flashed it as an OTA upgrade (well, using the Samsung crap). I don't have the original flash file.
I've tried to execute the .apk and it goes and looks like it is trying to install and then says (with a check mark mind you) Application not installed. How awesome is that.
Any other ideas?

I think if you flash the firmware via Odin without repartitioning, you'll get the Samsung apps reinstalled and user data not wiped

Well, I tried that. I found a file in what I think is a compatible firmware and pulled the TouchWizCalendar.apk on to my sdcard and copied it to the /system/app folder. Doesn't seem to work. It's like it's not there. I tried to rename the TouchWizCalendar.odex file to TouchWizCalendar.odex.bak too without success.
Is there something that I'm missing?
Perhaps someone with 2.3.3 and Titanium Backup could backup the app and send it to me? TB can restore an app that isn't on the system, right?

[Q] system ui problem

I have looked everywhere for this, but cannot find it. I am not sure how, but the systemui.apk is no longer on my phone, and so all features that it controls are not working. Does anyone have the apk for the Note 1 N7000 jelly bean update that I can download? I am going crazy without my notification bar.
My kernel is 3.0.31-906407
[email protected] #3
Build number: JZO54K.N7000JPLSB.
I have done a factory reset, and tryed to replace it with apk's I have found. I looked at rooting the phone, but I need to ensure I have it till the 28th, when if I cannot fix it my husband will root it. Please let me know if you can help.
Thank you

How do you know systemuiapk is missing? I would expect that it would show a boat load of errors on boot up and not run. What are the symptoms?

It is not listed in the "All Apps" section of the apps manager.
Symptoms: When my phone rings the notification to tell me who is calling does not pop up. I have to go into the phone app to even see who is calling, much less answer the call.
My notification bar is gone.
When I get a text message my phone will vibrate, but not chime.
My wall paper is gone.
I have found threads about rooted phones where people have removed the systemui that this are the same symptoms they have. The problem is that they had the original rooted program they used, so can reinstall that. I cannot do that, as my phone is not rooted. That is why I think my systemui is gone.
Install root explorer and check in /system/app folder for the apk, or in /preload/symlink/system/app. If it's there in preload, you will need to create a symlink for that in system/app.

You won't be able to install it as you're not rooted and it requires administrator privileges. But it's there anyway so I don't think that's the issue.
When did it stop working and was there any app you installed beforehand?

Thats really strange... Try rebooting into recovery (Vol up, home and power held down until you see samsung logo) then choose wipe cache and reboot. I doubt that will fix it though.
Only other options I can see are to root device by installing phillz kernel, wipe cache and dalvik from recovery, or root device, reinstall the app and make sure permissions are correct, or wipe device and start from scratch.

You said you tried to replace it ? How? Do you have an odex or deoxed rom? Anyways you will need root access to resolve this issue if you dont want to go about reinstalling the rom again.

Stop playing with essential parts of your system if you have absolutely no idea of what you are doing.
To get back to a reliable configuration:
download a stock rom and install it following the instructions in Dr. Ketan's thread here.
After that: start to read and learn. High probability this will protect the life of your device.

Firmware for N900a?

I think I deleted something through root manager, but the just of it, is I need to re-install the firmware. I tried to go through Kies but it can detect my device for some reason. I think I deleted the Kies through root manager as well so it might be the issue.
Does anyone have the .tar file for this so I could flash via Odin? Just want to go back to new outta the box. Oh, I also tried factory reset through settings and also in recovery. Doesn't restore the files I'm missing.
Maybe I'm making this harder than it is and just need a few missing files I deleted by mistake. The only issues Im having is everytime I restart my phone I have to reset my live wallpaper and reset Swiftkey as my default keyboard. Maybe there is a fix for that and then I wont have to worry about the firmware?
There is no tar as of yet. And if you did the OTA to MJ5 you cant use the one click through De la Vega

Right now it is impossible to flash firmware of any kind to a 900A. The bootloader is locked and until somebody figures out a way to unlock it, it is impossible to flash any ROM/Firmware to this device.
I am rooted on the Root De La Vega so I must be on the correct firmware.

It appears that you can just flash the MI9 firmware since you aren't running MJ5. Can someone verify this? That would save you from having to go through all of the apks.
All you would need to do is flash the Oneclick from this thread.
