how do I remove/change the sleep and off pics from the malekgibek image?

Hi everibody,
new to this forum.
I`ve a kobo touch, installed the malekgibek new image.
Seems to work fine but cannot connect to play store, no big problem to me.
What I`d like to change are the sleep and off default pics.
How do I do it?
Thanx for your help.

Tried with titanium B and root unistaller too, but nothing...

In the ES Explorer you have to enable the "Root Explorer" option at the left sidebar (inside the "Tools" group)

Tried with es explorer with root enabled but didn`t work.
The problem seems to be the system apks are locked and cannot be unistalled nor deleted , I tried with play store too and same result: cannot be unistalled.

The other option is to mount the android partition with linux (I use vmware) and change the file there...

Solution Found!

Found the solution.
Es explorer works but 2 steps root activation are required.

Use ES File Explorer..

Select menu-> Switch on Root Explorer under Tools.

Again click on Root Explorer.

A pop up window will appear.

Select Mount R/W -> Select RW option from the new popup for '/' and 'system'.


Now onto your operation. You will now be able to move the files without failure.

Has anyone tried installing alternative launchers? I plan to try some.

I also will try to use different keyboard apks too.

I find the existing front end on the Aura HD unusable (so tiny!). The Nook ST uses Relaunch which is a non-graphical front-end. It's not pretty but it uses less resources.

Hi

I installed everything one year ago, but now I would like to install new version of Colordict and unfortunately I can not. Is it possible? Maybe I make something wrong? I downloaded new version (4.4) according to information on the first page, and when I try to install I get information: parse problem.

My aim is to export history list of searched words - in version 3.7 (I have on Kobo) it is impossible from the colordict interface. Maybe it is written in some txt file, but unfortunately I also can not find on disc any files connected to Colordict.

Any idea what can I do in this situation?
Thank you in advance for any help.

Hi all, I'm new to this forum (and the website actually ).
First of all, I would like to thanks the developers, I am successfully able to use android on this Kobo Glo because of you people.

I have a query, is there a way to reverse the light button behaviour during startup.
i.e. I would like to boot in Android without pressing the light button, and into regular Kobo OS by pressing it.

I am sure you understand why this required; I mostly boot into Android, so just to save the hassle everytime.

Exclamation Requesting keymapping files

Hi all,

I have accidentally modified the files inside /system/usr/keylayout/keychars and keylayout while working on an app. (I should have made a backup, idiot! )

My power button in no more working.

Can someone kindly share these two folders?

PS. I'm on the verge of making a useful app for Glo with Android.
