Re: *[4.2.2][CM10.1] MadCowRom, green, wild, mad and fast

thanks ... problem solved by using explorer not ES file explorer....

Mate, ES explorer has additional level of protection by making users give Root permissions specifically..

Under ES explorer - Settings - Root settings - tick Upto root

Voila :)

Those rules apply's to those who TROLL this thread and who posts stuff which are not related to this rom development. Complaints, bug report, appreciation, missing features are part the agenda. Feel free to ask. Why are you concerned about that particular line. Don't be scared ;) Its just a mandate "To Do List in my MEMO (not S-Memo :eek:)

Cheers. :good:

FAQ Updated with external sdcard problem :)

Amazing rom!! Works beautifully and graphics are superb. Thanks for sharing this and for the hard work, VET-Note and the cowboys....:laugh:

No lags or issues so far...

Basically it is "just" a themed CM by now. So, if you're happy with the CM night lies, you'd like this one too. TeamHacksung and the CM developers are doing a tremendous job. I'm amazed about the progress CM has made since 10.1 :good: Just imagine Samsuck would play fair to the open source community, and would provide all necessary sources. OK, I'm dreaming ;)
It's a pleasure to read those nice comments. We're not developers by now. The main goal is to have fun, and share it with others.

Cheers, Markus

@vet-note:

There should be some issues built in the next Rom. Perhaps Apollo-Kerner or a selfloadingbatteryfuggthedrainapp.

It's almost threatening that nobody is moaning about missing features like toasting potatoes or fever-degrees... :silly:

Alternate mouse pointer, if you have mouse cursor enabled. It's a small subtle circle. Must be flashed again after reinstalling the ROM.

Download Mousepointer


Single-Pane Mod. If you don't like dual pane in e.g. systemsettings.

Download Single Pane Mod


Fix for appearance of some icons in systemsettings, when using lower dpi values.

Download Systemsettings Fix

AW: *[4.2.2][CM10.1] MadCowRom, green, wild, mad and fast

Forget my post above. I was in a hurry when posting this. My systemsettings fix is for the icons only, and doesn't touch single/dual pane. Number of panes depends on framework-res.apk and has a system wide effect. E.g. also Nova settings.

What I do is to install Java (no JDK needed, if you don't want to write your own APKs from scratch), and download APK Multitool. Run the setup script from Multi Tool to set up the directories and install the framework-res.apk. I did this on several machines, without any issues.
If there are still any problems, we can discuss it in the cow discussion thread

Cheers, Markus

    Our Team

    vet-note, veterinarian in real life who needed desperately a girls rom

    Gugelhupf, the linux scripter, picture colorizer and helper in all desperate developing situations
    Trahzebuck, our wallpaper designer, sound seeker, bluetooth moaner and kernel specialist
    Ukicar, the incredible comic drawer



    How often will the Rom be updated?

    Cause we all have a life beside XDA, the rom will be frequently updated but not daily. It is a work in progress so will probably add or delete features.



    How do I flash it?

    You must be on a safe kernel and recovery. If you are not sure, check this thread out to see which ones are safe!

    If coming from previous version, Asylum or cm10.1 nightlies:

    1. boot into recovery
    2. flash the Rom
    3. reboob


    If coming from any other safe kernel except Philz older than v3.99:

    1. Copy Gapps and MadCowRom zip to yout internal SDCard
    2. Boot into Recovery
    3. Wipe data and dalvik cache
    3. Flash MadCowRom zip from internal SDCard
    4. Flash Gapps zip from internal SDCard
    7. Reboob
    8. Don't restore system stuff or apps + data using Titanium, it might cause issues


    If coming from a Rom containing PhilZ kernel older than v3.99 (TW based JB leaks and ICS TW Roms):

    1. flash a CM10 kernel
    2. stay in CWMR, go to advanced/reboot recovery
    3. follow all the steps from #3 above

    Trebuchet
    VideoEditor
    VoiceDialer
    Stk

    removed-apks.zip

    You have to extract those you need, paste or push them to /system/app,
    fix permissions so they are the same as the other apps in the folder and reboob. It is NOT a flashable zip.



    What is not working:

    Whatever doesn't work in official CM10.1
    the number of apps shown in each dpi group is wrong

    Antichoasylum for establishing asylum and the beast mode
    Chasmodo for his build cm10 fred and his help and kindness in all situations

    MadCowRom(MCR) Glossary and F.A.Q

    Headline.png


    Divider_1.png


    Preview.png

    Cows are the most common type of large domesticated ungulates. They are a prominent modern member of the subfamily Bovinae, are the most widespread species of the genus Bos, and are most commonly classified collectively as Bos primigenius. (Source Wikipedia)

    Vet-Note.png

    She is a Lady, a Veterinarian in Profession and Madly about Cows. She spends most of the time caring them, treating them and most importantly she Loves them a lot. Apart from this, she also has a private life where they need her most. Remember when quoting anything to her, have some respect and so prefer to call her @Milady and also for the fellow lady’s here Corininha and lady-27

    And her fellow loyal followers - Chasmodo, Gugelhupf, Ukicar, Trahzebuck, Bangsti, Ahalford, AA1973, Toxicthunder, Beerbong, Corininha, sdvsf, snabben and let alone me (if i have missed someone, PMS me and i will add them here)

    FAQ.png


    Freaking Annoying Questions (aka FAQ) – Thanks to @AA1973
    (Note: Some of the iterations have been taken from @AA collection, which is already best in its class)​

    Q. How can I flash this ROM?
    A. Try Reading the OP first. Thanks.

    Q. I tried flashing this but getting Status7 error? Please Help?
    A. This error appears when using PhilZ kernel (Version < 3.99) and Speedmod K5-1. Try any CM/HydraCoreNirvana/DragonHeart Kernels, flash anyone in recovery and go to advance>reboot recovery and follow OP for instructions.

    Q. I cant find the Developer Options? What can I do? Where to find it?
    A. This is hidden for safety reasons. Go to Settings > About phone > Build number > hit build number 7 times in order to "become a developer"

    Q. I cant reboot to recovery?
    A. This has hidden inside the developer options menu. Just select Advance reboot option from there.

    Q. I getting Error and force closes? What is this?
    A. Best bet is you might have dirty flashed from previous build or flashed a wrong gapps package. So look into it. Always clean flash once in a week if you are a flashaholic.

    Q. I have very nasty eye and i cannot bare this DPI, but don’t know how to change it? Any help?
    A. Use Root Explorer or Es file Manager for changing this manually. Find this line ro.sf.lcd_density=320 and change it to your desire liking ro.sf.lcd_density=? Still easy, download Rom Toolbox Lite from PlayStore and change it from build.prop editor with your desired DPI.

    Q. I cant access few apps from playstore?
    A. Play Store Supports specific DPI groups. This only appears when using odd DPI’s. Flash this Multi DPI store 3.10.14 for JB 4.2+ from recovery.

    Q. I want S-Memo, S-Planner, S-Note and other Samsung Apps? Please help?
    A. They require Touchwiz-framework and will NOT work on this ROM and nobody cares.

    Q. Can I flash any other kernel in this ROM?
    A. Yes, you can. Just use kernel which supports CM10.1. Best Options would be @Chasmodo‘s Kernel Repository and @Neobuddy89’s DH Kernels

    Q. I cant detect my External SdCard?
    A. In the current version 4.2.2 JellyBean, the Internal SdCard is mounted as "sdcard0" and External SdCard as "sdcard1" under storage in your root directory. Install any File manager from Play Store to access them.

    Q. How to get the PIE controls enabled. I don't have them under settings. Please Help?
    A. Follow this Link http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=39834801&postcount=77

    1.)Do not post or spam this thread with unrelated topics.
    2.)Always give respect to the DEV.
    3.)Always use Search function before posting. Best bet it would have been answered already.
    4.)Do not clutter the thread with quoting repeated posts which have been answered by someone.
    5.)Do not post “+1 or +2”. There is Thanks button for that, so just use it. We know the problem and it will be looked into.
    6.)http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2174917 use this thread to clutter your chit chats related to MCR.


    Thankyou for reading this. This post will be updated frequently with all the madness possible which i can find. Please bare with me. :cool:
