Guest BlueMoonRising Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 I agree, as I used it effectively quite soon after release that's what puzzles me. Ok, I'll re-download and re-try. Thanks though. You've checked the usual? USB debugging on, ADB(both boxes checked)? Deodexed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest stephen m Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 (edited) You've checked the usual? USB debugging on, ADB(both boxes checked)? Deodexed? Yeah. Strange thing is it only gave the error message when trying to install a theme and LCD Density. Every other option was ok?

Guest BlueMoonRising Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 Yeah. Strange thing is it only gave the error message when trying to install a theme and LCD Density.

Guest ferrari35 Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 (edited) Yeah. Strange thing is it only gave the error message when trying to install a theme and LCD Density. Every other option was ok? I only rooted my phone but I downloaded everything check the main directory for the tool what I found in mine was the the themes had made folders in there but the zips did not install in those folders(the theme zips stayed in the main directroy) if you unzip the theme zips in the right folder it should work.

Looking at the SanDiego.bat file :- C:\SanDiego\tools\adb push C:\SanDiego\tools\themes\red\system /system/ so the themes are installed in the correct directory. They certainly are in mine and I've merely downloaded using setup without actually using any of them. @stephen m, you did use setup to download ALL the mods didn't you?

Guest technomole Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 Slightly off topic (but may affect root I guess) but I turned my phone off and on again last night and noticed that the mobile update software said there's an update available, it's 27mb, any idea what it could be ? don't want to install it and then have to mess about re-rooting and such like, that's if it actually does affect root. I haven't been able to find anything on the xolo webiste about it, and I'm not sure where to find info about updates for this phone on the orange website. cheers.

I would hold off installing it yet. It may block root. It looks as if you can't install unless you're un-rooted and not changed any system files anyway.

Guest Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 (edited) Please do not use the update until it is confirmed it is not to block root.......that is if you want to keep your root, and I am sure you all do :) I found in mine was the the themes had made folders in there but the zips did not install in those folders(the theme zips stayed in the main directroy) if you unzip the theme zips in the right folder it should work. The color theme folders in tools directory are from testing stages, the correct folder is C:\SanDiego\tools\themes\ If the themes are not unzipping and staying in tool directory are you using right option in setup 32bit or 64bit ? that is what happens if you use wrong option. If you use 32bit option on 64bit pc it wont work as the 7zip is not same. The tool was fully tested before release and works fine, if it does not work it is maybe because your adb is not contected. If you have adb setup on pc do this before running tool, open cmd and cd to your adb, and type adb devices, if you dont see your device or get a device offline message, power off device and power back on, not reboot. If you dont have adb setup on pc do this before running tool, open task manager and kill adb server like in screenshot. If that does not work then power off device and power back on and try then, but not reboot, only power off fixes adb (dont ask why, I have no idea) You should not need to do this, but if having problems this will most likely solve it.

Im running windows ultimate 32 bit with service pack 1 on a amd core 3.30 gig with 8 gig of ram. Think your right about it being adb mucking up the install Im not running adb sdk on this computer but I do have other drivers for other phones installed(iphone/htc and other anddroid ones)so that could be mucking it up too. The only other thing I can think of is when I installed the latest Aio tool I deleted the last one off the computer then unziped stright into the C drive(not sure if that would break anything). Im more than sure its a system or user issue(Im bound to of buggered it up some how:)) Aio is still the best otpion for rooting this phone and I cant thank enough rickywyatt and everybody else that has helped put this tool together. I got root Im more than happy with that:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so you should be able to install from USB by getting into recovery mode. Edit :- if not then try fixbrick a couple of times, sometimes it seems to need a bit of bullying.

Guest ayziaa Posted November 24, 2012 Report Share Posted November 24, 2012 (edited) I think deodex did this. anyone has something like that?

Guest Posted November 24, 2012 Report Share Posted November 24, 2012 Yes it is dpi, the Intel camera won't change with dpi which is quite annoying really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest technomole Posted November 24, 2012 Report Share Posted November 24, 2012 (edited) I gave in and flashed the xolo ics update so I could root the phone again. However I seem to have run into a small problem when trying to apply the 270 dpi mod. At first when I ran it I got - unable to chmod system/default/prop (or something like that) but then the phone rebooted, but nothing had changed. Then I ran it again and I got - cannot stat C:\SanDiego\tools\dpi\270\' : No such file or directory, but it's definitely there in the c drive. I also tried to adjust the default.prop file on the phone as I noticed it has an entry for the lcd setting, but changing it to 270 doesn't work, it changes back to 240 on rebooting the phone. The phone is rooted, I've enabled the internal sd card, used the deodex xolo ics (option 17) and then enabled both sd cards (option 14) Any ideas as to why it's not working ? and can I change the file on the phone ? I'm sure I saw something similar to this problem, but I can't seem to find it. Edit : - Okay tried to get the dpi mod to work again, no dice. The exact errors are - cannot stat 'C:\SanDiego\tools\dpi\270\' : No such file or directory (again the dpi files are in the sandiego folder on the c drive) Unable to chmod /system/default.prop: No such file or directory This one is a little puzzling as there is no default.prop file in the system folder, at least there wasn't when I checked with root browser, or ES file explorer. The default.prop file is in the same folder as android.fstab, charger, init, init.goldfish.rc and various others, does this mean it's in the wrong place ? Edit (2) : - I've also noticed that any changes I make to system files on the phone (using one of the text editors) don't stick after reboot, I've tried moving the default.prop to /system and renaming the other one, but the change doesn;t stick, I've tried changing the file permissions as well, but again on reboot they don't stick, so it would seem that even though I have super user access (root) I don't really, as I can't make permanent changes ? I've had similar issues (a while ago now) on linux, it's usually a permissions thing some where along the lines.
