how to change folder icons?

im running mickys mm rom and dont like the (new?) folder icons.
im running a rather dark desktop theme, so the icons should be darker, smaller or transparent..

i am able to change most of the other app icon via icon packs but the icons of the app folders/collections remain ugly. it might even suffice if i could change the icons color or transparacy. so far the only way is to choose a color of a handful of pastel shades for the folder itself.

any ideas? do i loose anything like the edge screen if i choose another launcher like nova over touchwiz?

Everything on SD card shows up as it suppsed to, even "Android" folder.

WiFi and Bluetooth won't turn on - Hardware defect or persist folder?

Hey all,

So I've been working on this for quite some hours now for two nights, but I'm done for and hope someone can give me clarity:

HTC One m9, running stock, latest update VDF Germany, Android 6.0.
Problem occured last week. I was using the phone quite extensively (yeah, tbh I was playing Pokemon Go... like a lot). With it being constantly on wifi/4g/GPS and all, charging it all the time, the battery also became quite warm.... And then while walking about it crashed and rebooted. I never had such a crash before tbh. After Reboot HTC Error Report even popped up and I also sent it. Then I found that the Bluetooth and Wifi Connections were off, which I usually both have activated all the time. And now I cannot turn them on anymore. No matter which shortcut is used. Wifi displays "error" after some minutes, while BT is just greyed out after triggering. Wifi Mac is showing with a 02:00:00:00:00 now as well.

So I did my research and performed quite some things, trying to get it fixed, because I am still not sure wether this is a Hardware or Software issue. A lot of people reported the issue at least for the wifi part. Less people reported it for both, wifi and BT, but I would guess that not too many people use BT regularly anyway. I found one person mentioning, that if both is not working it is most probably a hardware related issue. Which was my first thought exactly, thinking it overheated, something had gone loose internally and now the antenna is killed or at least not connected anymore.


As for the physical methods, I only tried the "whacking the back part of the device"-technique, which did not do anything. I haven't gone through "freezer" or "hair dryer" yet....

Some people were able to fix it via draining the battery and then restarting and draining again and what not.. but that all sounded weird to me.

I am still hoping it is software related so I went:

- Wifi Fix and Rescue App
- Unlock
- TWRP
- Root
- Reflashing stock
- numerous factory and network settings resets

Because I read about the /persist partition or folder and that it should contain wifi or mac address related info. Some guy had simply deleted those files and they were recreated upon reboot. But those files are not existing in my /persist folder (checked via Root Explorer - got the paid version) and I have Root - as stated above. Still that folder only lists:

\data
\display
\hlos_rfs
\lost+found
\rfs
\tee

I found a thread in google's cache of someone on how to recreate or fix that folder and contents, based on a nexus 5 however and that is probably not working on the HTC one m9 I was presuming.

So, what do you guys think?

Is there any way to get the wifi back to work? Would you say it even might be software related, looking at the persist partition/folder contents? Or am I totally wrong and the fact that BT AND Wifi are not working, rules everything else out and only leaves a Hardware Issue?

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on this.
Thanks in advance!

[Q] Can't save into Download folder anymore

Not sure when it happened, but I cannot save into the Download folder using Opera anymore. It seems I can't save anything now. I tried saving into SD Card and it doesn't even work. :eek:

Bricked Note5. In TWRP Recovery 3.0. Need to delete folder in /system/app. Error:1

[SOLVED] - Apparently, I lost the ability to *read* also. When I went into TWRP, I must have clicked the "keep the system read-only" button. That would prevent me from deleting files/folders. I hereby select one card from the Smacktard pile.


Evening all,

Sprint Note 5, Rooted.

Tried to manually make an application a "System App". This is what happens when you give a monkey the *tools* but not the *brains*:confused:. I'm plenty technical, but I've not done this before.

I installed an app, then went into the data\apps directory and copied the entire application's folder into \system\app.
When I rebooted, the phone gets stuck on the Sprint LTE screen.
When I boot into TWRP, and into Advanced / File Manager, then go into the offending directory, I get the following:

File Operation Complete
Failed
rm -rf "/system/app/com.incorporateapps.fakegps.fre-1" processes ended with ERROR: 1

I get similar messages when I chmod, delete, move, or rename.

Any assistance you could provide would be MUCH appreciated. I'm bricked and cannot work until I get my phone back.

Thanks!
Pete

My Verizon app question - where in the app folder is the default location?

On my Verizon Wireless LG G4 VS986 using Android Lollipop 5.1 (build 13b) except the My Verizon app was updated on June 24, 2016 which would just close after loading so I tried to use application manager to uninstall updates for My Verizon which resulted in it deleting the entire My Verizon folder under /system/priv-app even though I managed to extract that folder with the apk using Diskinternals Linux Reader. So I have the following questions:

Is there a way to restore the apk and the folder so it has the original date/time stamp as I basically zipped the file.

Also, does anyone know in the standard home launcher, is My Verizon actually directly listed as a app or is it in the Verizon folder? Thanks!

How can I order images within a gallery folder so that they come in a sequence?

I bought a Yoga2 8"tablet to give to a client so i can present my artworks in folder linked to the desktop. I have tried to order them alphebetically, by numbering, etc but some are reverse order, some random and they need to be in the correct order. I have put so much time into preparing the images. How can i make them easily accessible and swipable in the right sequence and direction (some come right to left and some left to right also). Is there an app for this? Please, any help would be most appreciated.

How to change folder of a system app...

I made some stupid things to my smartphone and now I am close of solving them...
My question is...Does anybody know how I can change the name of a folder from /system/priv-app/ so my device still considers the app as installed?
The app that I'm talking about is Google Services Framework and my device says it's installed but he says the app takes 8,00KB instead of 3,28MB(the size of the apk as told by Apps2SD)
Also Apps2SD seems to identify where is the app located after the folder name change but my system doesn't...
I change the file's name from "com.google.android.gsf-1" to "GoogleServicesFramework" so that the .odex file can work...
So anybody knows how should I set the permissions and owners of the folders and files so that the system finds where the .apk and .odex are located? :confused: :confused: :confused:

Nexus 5: rooted but "root" folder shows up as empty?

Nexus 5 android 6.0.1
Build number MOB30M

I've had some wifi issues these past few days (where the wifi radio didn't turn on, it was stuck in a "turning on" loop) and a missing wifi MAC address. After testing whatever I could on a stock phone (aeroplane mode, factory resets, you have it) I decided to root it. I read around and found someone claiming that deleting the /persist/wifi foldercould fix my issues. I can't post a link but it was a post on thinkoholic.

I downloaded Nexus Root Tolkit and set out to root my phone. I have no experience with rooting, but with a YouTube guide along with the program popups it seemed easy enough. I did the full driver installation, unlocked the bootloader and then rooted the phone. NRT crashed on me during the rooting process, IIRC while I was at the slider-part on my phone (TWRP?) to confirm a read-only mode or read/write. I restarted the rooting process and the phone booted up alright. I've installed root checker and a terminal window app which both say the phone is correctly rooted, but when I try navigating the /root folders in various explorers/file managers (ES File Explorer, Root Browser), the folder shows up as empty.

Am I looking in the wrong spot for a /persist/wifi folder?

[Help] External Sdcard andoid folder read only

Good Evening/Hello/Hi,

I own a Motorola Moto g3 2015 and I am running stock firmware (6.0.1), unrooted and bootloader locked. When I try to move any files from external sdcard android folder FX explorer says the content is read only, in es explorer I can copy and paste in any other location and then delete the content from android folder. There is no Cut and Paste from external sdcard android folder only copy and paste. I can delete or rename the files or folders, create new file/folders.

Is this a problem in every marshmallow devices, is there anyone else who faces this issue. This makes issues when I need to move a file which is larger then the free space of sdcard, because direct cut and paste is not possible.

Thank You
