[Drogyn]

Oh.. yeah.. sorry now I remember reading that and clearly forgot to do it

 

[Drogyn]

Followed the instructions, installed:

livewallpapers.apk

and

livewallpaperspicker.apk

still no option to select live wallpapers. Can someone tell me what I missed?

Did you reboot?

 

[Drogyn]

yep. Have to anyway when installing in CWM as per the instructions

Got it. I don't use that way but it works too.
Another way is to use a root file explorer and copy the apks from the zip file to your /system/app folder then reboot.

Use a file explorer such as es file explorer thats included in the rom and manually install the apps by copy the 2 apks and pasting them to /system/app and reboot.

 

[Drogyn]

ok, got it thanks

I have never tried to do any updates from sprint/Samsung pushed OTA. IDK for some reason I had it in my head that starting from scratch was being suggested. But it probably was just something I thinking, maybe for practice if I ever have to return or replace it. Or clear any bugs I may have created going from ROM to ROM and loading and unloading truck loads of apps. Ideas? Or is is flash as usual, following the directions exactly?

I think you are asking if you need to odin back to stock before using the ota updater in megatron..

If that's what you mean then no, chev and maverick use an ota updater app and service to push out their own updates and since its an ota update pushed out by the megatron devs on a special app its not neccesary to go back to stock. Only if you wanted to use the stock ota updates.

You also have to install the apk that holds the livewallpaper(s) you're wanting (bubbles.apk, purely as an example since I don't think there really is a bubbles livewallpaper, but I could be wrong - I am human, after all ) The other two just tell the launcher: a) what to do with the livewallpaper and how to display it properly, and: b) give the launcher the ability to add the installed livewallpaper(s) to the list of stuff you can do to the desktop and desktop background.

So I am going to update to the latest version and it says it will wipe data. What exactly will it wipe? I just want to make sure I don't lose much and have to fix a bunch of crap again.
Samsung Transform Ultra running the last version of Mega Tron

It will wipe all your data. Backup with titanium backup and restore after the update. Or backup with cwm and advance restore data which I don't really recommend.

I saw a dropbox link for a Beta version of 6.2.5 but it doesn't seem to work anymore and I can't find any other links to 6.2.5.

Can anyone help?

Hey, just to let everyone know, I sent Ameer Daewoo (maker of online nandroid backup) all the needed files to add full device support for the Transform Ultra..

When you open ONB where it says Device "unknown" tap it and choose the ultra. I know it says (boost mobile) but the partitions are the same for both sprint and boost. Nothing having to do with backup has anything to do with service Carrier. Enjoy!

I seem to be having an issue with the OMG! theme area. Every time I go and click on the theme portion, the application crashes and force quits. No OC right now, fresh install. Any ideas?

Doesn't work, never will. I'm not the developer of the app.

Alright, thank you.

The next thing I have run into is Netflix streaming. The app seems to work, but the streaming portion of it just sits at loading. I'm not sure if anyone else is having this issue though.

you dont have to partition your sdcard to run the ROM. use es file explorer to delete the app and reinstall it via the play store.
