Today I found that my camera is not present in the programs. I did some power saving tweaks. I am not sure whether that has caused my camera to disappear or un installed or something unknown has caused it un installed.
How can I re install. Please help.
Thanks in advance.

The "Camera" exe file should be there in the Windows Folder. copy that, paste a shortcut in the start menu in the Windows folder itself. that should fix things. (if things havent gone too wrong).

Thanks karthiksk for reply.
I found two files. One HTC_camera and other Camera. Both I copied to start menu BUT still my camera not working. The icons are now present in programs menu but when I click on them nothing happens.
Further help will be appreciated.

Try reflashing the rom...cant help much then.
I know this is gonna sound a little weird, but it happened to me, and this is how u can solve it, the problem its on the hardware of the phone not the software, so reflashing the rom wont do anything, since the problem is inside, firste turn off the phone, then remove the back lit, then lightly press with both of your finger the area surrounding the camera, (like trying to push on the opposite direction of the camera) then turn on your phone and go directly to the photo tab, on the touch flo, and that should do it

no offence Lsagara, but i doubt its a hardware issue, even if it were a hardware issue there is no reason for the files to disappear
@mirchichamu:
1)What happens when you run the "Camera" file from the windows folder itself?
2)You could use M2DC to customize your softkey to access camera. What happens when you do that?
Same problem - File deleted
Hello,
The file you have provided above has been deleted from the Mediafire.
Were you able to locate any solution? Even I am facing the same problem.

The Nexus S has the awesome old school TV shutoff animation when the screen turns off. Unfortunately it comes with the stock click sound.
Anyone know how to change it? I think the file is in /system/ somewhere. I would like to change it to a sound effect like they do on cartoons when the TV is turned off.

should be in /system/media/audio/ui
there was a thread in the N1 section back when froyo came out full of replacement noise's
EDIT: infact here it is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=692422&highlight=lock+sounds
It would be extra awesome to change it to the Metal Gear Solid codec off/close sound.

Here's a flashable zip to change whatever ui sounds you want...
the zip file attached is just my custom one, key press is only thing i changed but you can put in whatever sounds you want and then resign the zip
Make sure to back up your old ui sounds first in case u want to revert back
Sweet, thanks a lot guys... now to find a TV shut off sound effect.

Share if you do! I like where you're going with this.
Here's one with all the stock sounds except added an electronic sound to the lock key.
I like the animations turned off but for those who run them....
Unfortunately the lock key is mapped to the Lock.ogg file with some delay, so the sound doesn't hit until the screen goes black... would be perfect if the sound mapped while the animation shows...
anyhow, here's something to try... no biggie only takes a couple mins to change...
flash in recovery
There's 2 attached... One is stock to revert back to if need be.
Better....
I found this, converted to .ogg
nxt: Great find!
Just put it in a flashable zip below.... sounds great
Tv sound for nexus s lock
Found a great TV sound, converted it to .ogg
First off, thanks to everyone for the work you've done on this. Second of all, I can't get any of these to flash. I get an installation aborted error every time. Anyone know what I could be doing wrong? Thanks.

The easiest way i have found to do it, is not even flash at all, just take the Lock.ogg file, put it on your sd card, then copy and paste it with root explorer into system/media/audio/ui/ make a backup of the original of course

In order to flash zips you need to mod your update.script in your META-INF folder
See here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=10660096#post10660096
Here's a flashable zip with an updated script, I'm using clockwork recovery but should also work on Amon's recovery.
Just take my zip and get rid of my sounds and replace with yours and resign. Make sure to backup your own ui sounds first in order to revert back

You have to have root access. The system folder wont show up in astro, you need Root Explorer or some other file manager that uses Root

Take a look at this thread. If you don't like the sounds, you may just replace the files in the flashable zip, but be sure they have the same format and name! You can still go back, if you don't like them!
I've used files in the same format and renamed them and they don't work :S
Right. The power up sounds don't work on my Galaxy S running Darky's ROM 9.5 but the power off sound does.
Power up sounds are
PowerOn.wave a wave file .
Presume the rom master removed the sounds i would ask Darky/his posts/helps/forums .

Please help me, i have a Galaxy S gt-i9000 with froyo (rooted) and i downloaded some custom dialer/ contacts and sms packs (it looked nice so i thought .. why not give it a try) but one of the apps said that its recommended to remove the default app so that it wont cause any conflicts. i wanted to uninstall the default dialer app but i ended up uninstalling the "Phone" app .. and now i cant use the contacts widget.. touching a contact wont pop up the menu with options (call, video call, send sms ..)
i wanted to check if i can try anything in Kies (restore or something) but my phone doesn't seem to be recognized anymore in Kies :|
Is there anything to be done?
any advice is deeply appreciated.
i have attached phone apk for you to install. you just need to unzip it and place it under /system /app and then reboot. make sure system is mounted RW
if that fails, reflash the ROM.
thank you for the prompt answer.
i downloaded the zip but i cant get to the root folder .. i mean .. i can only connect the phone in storage mode ...
should i try using a card?

You need either Root Explorer (paid) or Astro File Manager (free) from the market. Storage mode is fine, just copy the unzipped apk from your pc to the internal storage, then use one of the apps above to move it to /system /app.
Make sure you mount /system /app as rw or it wont paste.
ok so i copied it in /app ... asked me if i want to replace .. canceled and tried to run the phone apk that i already had ... it said App not installed.. so i copied and replaced the one from you .. and tried to run .. still no result :|
the phone apk is there ... but i think the dialer app is the one actually missing .. could you please add the dialer app as well?

right now i have from dialer: dialertabactivity.odex (i think there should be a dialer.apk here as well)
and from phone: Phone.apk, Phone.odex, Phone_Util.apk, Phone_Util.odex, PhoneErrService.apk, PhoneErrService.odex, PhoneSetupWizard.apk, PhoneSetupWizard.odex

Yep, it's the one with the green square, no Dialer.apk on my phone, just DialerTabActivity (apk&odex)Ok I've added a few into this rar, most you probably have, but I found 2 contact ones you didn't mention, so maybe they will help, these are all I have on my laptop that are related to the phone I think, see if they help.
you got a DialerTabActivity apk?
i copied all and overwrite them but still cant install the apps back. i would of wanted to keep my apps and stuff ... is there any other way to reinstall the default apps that i stupidly uninstalled? (Contacts, Dialer, Phone) dont know if it helps .. but i used the "Uninstaller for Root" app

Ok here's everything I could find on my phone, let me know if any of them help ok
the fact that i copy them in apps doesn't make them appear in the menu (i think that i still have to install them) and i always get the application not installed error when i try to run the apk to install.

Ok, I could be wrong here, but I'm fairly sure I read somewhere on here that you need to MOVE system apps, not COPY them, so go to system/app/ again and delete the ones you copied, then Move them from root of your sd to system/apps again. Then maybe try a reboot. I'm not sure this will solve it, but it's probably worth a try...
well ... no wireless here ... no wap on my sim ... cant get astro at the moment seems that everything i thought i was doing was bogus .. the file manager was saying that it was pasting/ copying/ deleting but it wasn't ... I'll replay tomorrow after downloading astro and after i actually do everything suggested
Thank You Very Much For The Help and hope you didn't lose all your patience .. i will be back tomorrow

Sorry, I assumed you were using Astro, or Root Explorer.
Astro is free on the market so it should be ok for me to post it here (if not, someone tell me ok?).
Gimme a few minutes to upload it...
ok .. i'll wait as much as it takes .. just to get this bastard working
Hey, happy to help, if I'm actually helping lol. That's what the sites for
Ok I've attached Astro, but I'd recommend buying Root Explorer, it's what I use. Also I've included a pic of the permissions needed by each of the files I put in the rar. I don't know about Astro, but in Root Explorer you just long press the app to get to permissions menu. You may not even need them, I'm not sure. Will check back tommorrow to see if you're making any progress.
ok thanks once again .. and good night
well astro cant edit permissions .. or at least not the free version .. or maybe they changed it in newer versions (in case there are any)

Damn, that's a pity, that was the latest version from the market, think you should buy Root Explorer if you can.
Permissions aside, did you successfully move the files with Astro?
If you did, dont try to install them, try a reboot first, I think that's what I did when I put the email.apk from SGSII into my SGS.
Sorry I didn't solve your problem tonight, will try again tommorrow if you want
i couldnt even move them cause the app dir is read only ... same for the files ... so unless i can get an app that can edit permissions i cant try moving/rebooting .
Hi there!
I want to disable the backlights of the softkeys, without installing an ad-filled apk.
I have installed Slimrom 4.3 from maclaw.pl and the setting to turn backlight off is invisible.
If you go with an rooted file explorer to /sys/class/leds/brightness and switch the value to 0, the backlight immediately turns off.
But if u restart the phone the value is changed everytime to 1 and the Backlight is back on.
So i thought i could write a script, that do this job for me., everytime i start my phome. The script is in the attachments.
Can anyone check if the script is okay? I dont want to brick my phone
And Do you know where the autostart folder for android devices is (like in windows), ive read something about kernel init or something.
And if i want to make a flashable zip out of this script, How to make it? because i dont want everytime i flash an update to work in the system.
Thanks for your time
Go to system settings-buttons-backlight & disable it. If that option it's not present on slim, simply download this. Don't mess with any system file cause this ain't a xperia phone:laugh:
Thanks, but my device is not listed under supported devices in this app and i dont want to keep a 3rd party app running that increases the battery drain and takes ram away. i prefer a little script at system start.
And no the option is not listed in the settings.

FYI, I'm using bln app & doesn't drain my bat nor ram (on cm11). Have a nice day
Okay i found that folder it is localized in /system/etc/init.d
I copied the file to there and it is workimg, on every restart the buttons keeps off.
But how to make a flashable zip with that file? is it enough to create a zip with the folder system and its contents are only th underfolder and the file?

Don't think so is good script, because when you got a notification than BLN turn on lights again and will be stay it on to second boot.
sorry my very first try.
i will look on my device, if this happens to me too
The only problem i had was with whatsapp, if u get a message there, the light keeps on till restart.
But in settings - notifications - lights in whatsapp u can turn off the notification lights and then the problem is solved. ( standard is white )
