Root and Know What?

I am Newbie and I Just Rooted my phone.
So what can I do Know?
I did the Wi-Fi Tethering and Worked.
I downloaded Metamorph but didn’t found any Themes.
I want to delete Sprint Apps, and don't know how to...
Want to change the lock screen, but without changing the ROM...
Anybody could come with a List of what people can do, know that the phone is rooted.
BTW I am Running Sprint 2.1

You can create a nandroid, remove the bloatware, change the current lockscreen, create your own rom.

Welcome to the world of root!
While what Dave provided is in no way bad or wouldn't help you accomplish what you want, I suggest looking up adb commands.
Check out the main wiki thread in my sig. It will have a thread called "How to Remove Stock Apps, etc."
Once you have looked a little there, post back and let us know if you can't find some information, and we'll gladly help you out.

I've got to agree with Riggs, while Kitchens are nice for people who know what they're doing, I'm a firm beleiver that people just starting out should use ADB as much as possible.

[ROM]RUU_Vivo_Sasktel_Canada_WWE_1.46.669.1_Radio_Radio _20.23.30.0802U_38.02.01.17_M

Here new RUU for Vivo
http://www.filefactory.com/file/ca6...0802U_38.02.01.17_M_release_176741_signed.exe
Enjoy!

What do all these region specific roms do? Is there any advantage or extra goodies having one rom over another?

Crazy, this is the one for my carrier. Although the phone is not yet released, I think it is coming in April. I have my upgrade coming up this summer sometime and will get this phone to replace my Nexus One if I can root and install a Vanilla gingerbread rom on it like CM. I'm not into sense at all. But if All else fails, I will still get the phone for an upgrade, unlock it, and sell it and continue to use my N1

Hi,
does anyone know if a non-european rom like that from canada should work on a european version of the IS?
Will european languages be missing when you install this or get you in trouble with specific radio settings?
I got a little bug and was looking for a new firmware (when you open the phone application, normally you get to see the latest calls on top of your contacts and you can quickly navigate through the list by T9 search. However the list is completely empty until I press a key and delete it again.. then the list is displayed and I can search through it)
Thank you!

It doesn't include any information about EU APN's and all this material.
The language is inside without any preset except english

[Q] My contacts default number

I could set default number for my contacts which have more than one number, but each sync my contact with google account or backup my contacts with My backup pro and install new Rom, have to set these default numbers again.
I asked if there are any solution to keep this default numbers Backup also with contact and then restore after installing new Rom?

There was already a recent question exactly like this on this thread!!
Did you use search??
I believe the answer was no there is no way but look at the thread that is already posted, it's less than a week old

Need P7's stock lolipop apps

Guys I need lock phone apk icon
can someone up ?
thnx

There is no lock phone.apk in B805.. Where should it be located?!

In stock folder ..
When I updated P7 to unofficial lollipop it was there but I reverted quite while ago due to issues..but missing that feature u just tap it and phone is locked..cool

I assume it is not an app itself. Try to create a shortcut with e.g. quickshortcutmaker. It may take a while until you find it, but I believe it is possible.

No it's not there..

So, I looked it up for you. Under Lollipop it's located at 'screen lock' (I don't know how it is called in English). The point on the Top ('Display Sperre') is it.

but man i have mate7 and i said i need someone to extract it and pot it .. i am using 4.4.2 android..
so exctract the apk up it here if u can

In the last post you wrote that you have a P7?! You did not wrote anything about porting or extracting. First you wanted just the icon, then the shortcut and now.. Wtf!
Just describe a little more detailed what you want at the beginning and be more friendly. Sorry, but I really don't want to help you this way. I assume, you did not even look after what I described in the last post.

[ROM][Stable]Stock Debloated 1.23.1550.3 MetroPCS

This Is My First Shot at making something for this device,so please bear with me.
This Is A Custom Stock ROM that has been debloated and slimmed down a bit to my personal liking.
ive used SuperR's Kitchen on Ubuntu to bring this to you guys.
i used Captain_Throwbacks Metro Base ROM as a starting point.
i will include my list of apps that i have removed in the second post.
i would suggest a factory reset and dalvik/ART wipe
as always,if your device explodes or stops working,i assume no responsibility for any damages or data loss.
flash at your own risk.
if anyone has any suggestions and/or input,please feel free.
im no developer,just taking a shot at this.
the goal is to remove as much bloatware as possible,whilst maintaining stability.
:highfive:
i added /data/app support as well as busybox & deodexed the ROM.
im currently uploading my first build to google drive and will share links shortly.
bear with me as i dont have the best internet connection.
DeZiREv5K
OP Updated with newer build.
Code:
6-14-16 build changelog
--Removed HTC Launcher(replaced with google now launcher)
--updated play store to latest version
--updated HTC Service pack to latest and integrated back into ROM(no longer needs Seperate download)
--attempted to add back the official metropcs device unlock app(Thanks [user=3100103]@sandix[/user] !)
6-16-16 build changelog
---removed google play launcher & replaced with nova launcher(issue with installment on first boot)
6-19-16 build changelog

TO DO List:
edit updater script to change out rom title
check what works and what does not
(Possibly) remove More files/Free up more space
upload newer build as first one fail with status 7 in recovery.(assert error)

Check my build and compare to yours to see what can be removed. I'm sure you will find a lot more that can be done.

Yeah it's required

Just looking at channel log I'm assuming this is still relevant. I'm on V3 and with some frustration (I don't have Wi-Fi and had to trick my 6yr old laptop to boot up) I got it running well.
As someone who has hard bricked smart phones since the xv6800, this is a first good go. Inspires me to start cooking my own roms.
Suggestion: A file browser would have made it so much smoother. No one with half a brain will ***** about es file explorer or root browser being cooked in. Fortunately bad habits inspired me to always backup original stock. Most people would've been screwed there. Dirty flash. Pdanet. Got it all up and going.
Keep up the good work. Look forward to any tweakings you find out of my league
Sincerely,
Satisfied end user

Thank you for the input,much appreciated.also,i updated OP with a newer build that uses nova launcher as default and puts back a few apks that got cutout by mistake.

My phone got simlocked after trying this ROM. It's still locked even after restoring the nanodroid backup I made prior to flasing this ROM.
I'm not in the US sooo I am not using sprint.
Any advice?
Thanks

This ROM is based off of the original Stock MetroPCS USA variant,i didnt add anything that would potentially affect your simlock status.ive only removed stuff that was already there.
If youre not in the US and youre not using MetroPCS Variant of the phone,you shouldnt be flashing this ROM to be 100% honest.flashing incompatable firmwares across devices can sometimes lead to bricks.whats your Carrier and device?

That APK will just crash,as the required lib files etc to accompany the APK are missing.

I agree. It's very unusual.
I got this phone from a local phone shop. The owner seem to have unlocked the phone with some kind of service. I contacted my carrier who wrote down a couple of numbers from inside the phone (including the original phone number) and boom, I was able to use the phone with my number.
I have a theory about the error. Maybe you could see if that makes sense:
Maybe the phone isn't locked. But after a factory reset it keeps trying to "activate" the phone using the methods given by sprint.
There's this one step during the initial setup (right after factory resetting the phone) where it tries to register the phone, and fails. This step takes at least tem minutes and returns an error that locks up the phone.
I think the phone assumes that it's locked because it's not able to "reach" sprint servers and denies all incoming and outgoing calls/messages because of this.
If you know a way out of this please let me know.
Another user also provided me with an app that seems to be solving the issue. But it's not marshmallow compatible. Any ideas on that one as well?
Thanks a lot. And great debloating work you did there

Again,what is your Carrier?if youre using anything other than MetroPCS USA,you should not use this ROM.thats #1.#2 is if youre using sprint,you should get the RUU to return the phone to factory software,and i assume youre using sprint because our Metro devices havent gotten MM yet,and you mentioned it.
And yes,CDMA/Sprint phones will not work correctly if theyre not provisioned from the carrier correctly.so if the activation is failing,then youre not going to be able to use the device to send messages etc until its activated correctly.
Suggestion,try using nightbreeds MM ROM thats for those kinds of carriers.

Oh lesson learned. I'm from Yemen and my carrier is YemenMobile (CDMA). I don't know why but I assumed that the phone won't mind the ROM since it was kinda unlocked. SORRY.
The phone was saying Sprint when I bought it. I think I'm going to get back to factory and see if that does the trick. :-/
My extended apologies
