Root [ROM]{MS840} Number_Two v1.8 ~ ZVA

lol it's in the 'flash zip' menu of CWM just press it once to enable and again to disaBLE..no idea why it enables it at first even thought it's already on.. but thats just the way it is.. lol trust me :D

and if that dont work you can always use adb or root explorer etc..
My bad homie I should've mentioned that I also tried that and it didn't work, I even made sure to mount/unmount just to try all that I could but no go. I will just use total commander to copy it over like you said but still wanted to let you know that the .zip wasn't working.

those screenshots look great.once it has been extracted and copied how do you get to the overwrite part?
Once you have them extracted somewhere on your sd card all you have to do is copy them to system/app/ and then hit paste, once you hit paste it will ask you if you want to overwrite, click yes and then reboot the phone and thats it.

1.7 so far is pretty good, the only thing that is urking me is the battery indicator in the top bar. It is now the left most icon. I am use to seeing it next to the clock and having the signal bars for cell network and wifi being left most, not the battery. It is a small issue... kinda like a OCD thing...
lol yeah somehow i keep screwing that up... try to fix it when i get a chance lol sorry man

@elbayames yes you can

Hey all, with the app called EDT Tweaks how come it will only work with the clock? Does it have to be purchased? I could not even find it on the Google Play Store....
it's not a paid app, just something made by a few guys to work with there tweaks.. only issue was i couldn't get anything else to work except the clock... i know many people like the option of modifying the clock

I sure do. Always change it to fit my theme. Its Dark blue atm :)
Are you working on getting the other tweaks to work? Doesn't really bother me, just wondering

I'm having lagging issues with latest 1.7...phone can be unresponsive for a long time sometimes, this is weird. All dates on my SD card were changed to 1970... i can't find my latest nandroid backup

Hey LDrifta, I installed 1.7 and man it is 'efin great! Very solid now, my phone ran for 38 hours without a ghost reboot after installation a few days ago. I have only had 2 ghost reboots after that first 38 hours of run time! Before 1.7 I was getting like 4 or 5 ghost reboots every day. GREAT WORK LDRIFTA, YOU THE MAN. Thanks for keeping our phones fresh and working on new stuff. If I ever find a job in this crapola economy I am going to send you a donation so make sure you check your inbox if you get a message from me. ;-)

Thanks a ton man!

Hey guys, something is wrong with my video player.apk. When I played videos before i installed 1.7 rom version both the top and bottom bars were solid black but now the bottom one is a grey color. I took a screen shot but it didn't copy the video that was playing but it got the bars I'm talking about. What to do to fix this?

BT fixed...awesome!

I had to do a recovery as the latest 1.7 became very laggy. Then it worked perfectly after the recovery.

Why the nandroid backup dates are showing 1970??? Is there a way to set the hardware clock somewhere?
well i did some googling about the 1970's thing and it seems to be a recovery related issue.. which version of CWM do you have?
