The Ultimate Droid 1.0.0 - Droid 1 Only

[Dave12308]

One little issue I'm having, I pulled the framework-res with ADB and did a little changing to it, but when I try to push it back I either get one of two things 1- permission denied, system mounted read only, 2- permission denied, operation not allowed " or something alond those lines" ( ive tried GOD mode , system in read write thru UD settings, SYSRW thru ADB.

I've noticed a few oddities that didn't exist in UD8.0 with the root permissions. Something is messed up, when you launch an ADB shell, you have to type 'su' to switch from the $ user prompt to the # superuser prompt; unlike most modern ROMs where ADB shell launches with su permissions. I have a funny feeling that your issue is connected to this, as i've noticed ROMs that don't shell right into root tend to have issues with ADB commands.

It cleaned up 12 mb...now I have 40 free MB...

Well that's a start!

I would go into Menu>settiings>applications>manage applications>ALL tab>sort by size.

Then you can see what is chewing up all of your memory.

Try moving the big ones over to your SD.

Good luck!

That's really strange.

I had brussel sprouts and fish for dinner tonite!

Anywho, I would bet it's the old zip.zip. debacle.

Are you using SPR?

The only time I have experienced what you describe is when the Rom zip file was renamed and I added ".zip" extension to a .zip file.

Does any one know how to turn off the haptic feedback? When i'm on the phone keypad it vibrates when i press the keyes. Alo, I can't install Google search from the market.

Should be in the user input settings.

I have gone back to 8.0 for now, it seems like it uses too much battery even on the same kernel and f/cs even when I wipe the stuff 3x. I will try it again in the future though.

I just tried it again and I noticed when I try to adb remount it starts Damien successfully but then says remount unsecsussful. So you may on to something with the adb commands.

For any app that is included as part of the rom, updates from the market won’t install. This is because they are in system/app, and are designated as read only. If you really want the updated app, and don’t want to wait for an update to the rom, you can accomplish it in one of three ways.

the easiest way is thru root explorer. go into system/app, and then click the "mount r/w" button (to change the system files from read only to read/write). then find the app, long press on it, and then hit "delete". then push the "mount ro" button to change back to read only, exit out of root explorer and then reboot (this is important to get the change in system apps to "take.") when you boot back up, you should be able to install the app from the mkt, with the update.

the second avenue is thru Terminal Emulator. type in:

su
sysrw
rm /system/app/[name of app].apk
sysro
reboot

again, it's necessary to actually type in "reboot" and enter, to get the change to take.

finally, you can go into the rom zip file, manually delete/remove the app, and then reflash the newly configured rom zip file w/o the system app. then you should be able to dl the updated app from the market.

Word of warning: if you are running a theme, the themed app is for the version that is contained in the rom. If you delete the app in system, and then update from the market, you will lose the “theming”. But, you may be able to go into the theme zip file, extract the app icon, and replace it on your updated app.

Thanks for that info. I had this same issue with SS4.8, but it was cuz i wouldn't reboot after i removed the app from /system. Now i know! Thanks.

So i tried to get the updated google search from the market. These are the steps i took using root explorer

1. added .bak to googlesearch apk in /system
2. rebooted
3. installed google search from market.

However it is still not linked to my search soft key button. Pressing it gives me a small haptic vibration but doesn't open the app. The widget was all messed up too.

So is there no way to get the updated google search and have it fully working? Had the same problem with SS4.8.

I downloaded from the first link, wiped, and tried to install from zip and got this:

assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "supersonic" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "supersonic"
E:Error in /sdcard/ThemesandOtherFiles/theultimatedroid-1.0.0-final-supersonic-1.0.0.zip
(Status 7)

using clockwork mod.

I saw something similar to this earlier in the thread (been reading everything here) but can't find it now and don't remember what the problem was. Any help please? Thank you

I was having the same problem. i'm a complete noob to custom roms so I figured it was something I was doing wrong. I wanted to post the question but spent have the day reading sticky posts instead.

Through my multiple downloading of the rom I noticed the first and second links go to two different files. Once I downloaded the second file everything worked as expected.


First link brings you to:
theultimatedroid-1.0.0-final-supersonic-1.0.0.zip

Second link brings you to:
theultimatedroid-1.0.0-final-droid.zip

So I read over at the UD forum that after i do those steps that I wrote above, I have to move the google search apk from /data and put it back in /system, then reboot, and everything should work fine again...in case anyone wanted to know. I'm not gonna try it yet cuz i just put the bowers blacknbold theme and so if i update it now, i'll lose the theme for google search, but i may try it later anyway.
