Add other system languages to ASUS ROG 2 without Root - ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion

The ROG (Tencent version) is limited to 1 foreign language and that is English(US), if you need other languages you can install language locale apps from the play store but many of the apps there are outdated. Personally I have installed this app since it's up to date and simple: "Language Settings for Android - Set Language" by VeryluckAPP
After you install the app, you need to give system permissions through adb commands. To do this you need:
-Make sure to enable developer mode on the phone: https://www.embarcadero.com/starthe...bling_usb_debugging_on_an_android_device.html
-Make sure to download the latest platform tools to your PC from: https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools
-Extract the zip file into your desktop, then inside the platform tools folder hold shift and right click the mouse you will see an option to: "open PowerShell window here" on Windows 10 and "open command window here" on older versions of Windows. Choose which ever you have.
*Using Powershell type: ".\adb devices" without Parenthesis
*Using Command window type: "adb device" without Parenthesis
----you should see your device by now as connected to your PC----
-Then type the following code suggested by the app installed for the language needed, make sure to add ".\adb" if you are using PowerShell.
Tip: Adding English(United Kingdom) and setting it as your main language will change Armoury Crate device temperature to Celsius if you want that. Thanks to @dungnghien for pointing that out.
Credits: goes to the apps and links shared.
Good luck

Now the big problem for me is: When connecting the "Flydigi wasp 2" device to ROG 2 then Airtrigger doesn't work, does anyone know to help me?

Java JDK,Android SDK and resigning APK's

WINDOWS 7
Thought i would make a noob friendly guide on setting all these up..should make it easier foor noobs to have some fun
To make it more noob friendly i will include pictures
Download Java JDK HERE
Android SDK HERE
And Testsign.zip View attachment testsign.zip
Install Java JDK by double clicking the JDK file you downloaded
Now goto My Computer > Local Disk (C:\) and create a folder called Android and open it.....Create another folder called androidSDK (NO SPACES!)
Extract the Android SDK you downloaded into the AndroidSDK folder there should now be 5 folders in there....)FIG(A)add-ons,docs,platform,usb_driver and tools...
Go into tools and keep it open...the top bar will say something like C:\Android\androidSDK click this top bar and copy it ALL!FIG(A)
Now you need to add the tools folder to your path....
Right click my computer > Properties > Advanced system settings > Enviroment variables
In the system variables box (the lower one) find the path it should be the 5th one down (under OS) highlight path and click edit....
Now go to the end of that line and put a ; there..Then paste the line you copied earlier..
Your path should now look like FIG(B)
now make a Tea/Coffee/Grab a beer or whatever
Back to your tools folder now...Remember that Testsign.zip? Well extract it into your tools folder please.
Next click start (win7 logo in your taskbar) and type CMD it should say command prompt.exe double click it!
Now is the test! Type autosign and hit enter (not hard obviously) If it says XDA in huge letters you are laughing! If not drag and drop Autosign.bat from your tools folder into the CMD window and press enter.
type 1 > enter > yes
2 > enter > yes
3 > enter > yes (enter means press enter not type it.just in case your such a noob you dont know your own keyboard)
You should now be able to resign .apk files by right clicking, if that doesnt work you can type autosign in a cmd window and do option (4) to manually sign.
To install drivers for your android device.......
Check adb debugging is enabled on your phone and plug the bad boy in,go to device manager (right click my computer) find ADB (it will probably have a warning sign) right click that and direct the install to your USB_DRIVER folder
Open up Command prompt (CMD.EXE) type adb devices should say something like HT01GL902119 device
Now i think you are all done!! Please dont hesitate to ask if you have problems i have subscribed to this thread so can answer pretty quickly
Linux.....Coming soon
Saved for linux method
Saved for winxp if i reinstall my laptop
Saved for creating update.zip tutorial
Thank you very much!
If I use this method to sign a modified apk file on my Windows 7 PC,
will installing the apk via File Manager on my phone, cause infinite boot loop?
Stericsson is mentioning here that this could happen.
I dont really know i have always installed apk's (/system/app) via update.zip and have never edited 3rd party apk's(/data/app) to need to sign.
What apk's are you installing?
It's OK! I slightly edited ADW Launcher (just the highlight element in fact)
to match the Xperia (Rachael UI) interface.
It worked just fine, no problems at all!
Thank you again!
Nice guide!
brilliant guide, although i am stuck at the last hurdle. Where can i find device manager? its not in the menu when i right click on computer.
Right click My Computer
then properties>device manager
if that doesnt work it will be in control panel > Add Hardware i believe.
will you do the update.zip tutorial ? because I think that I will need it soon thanks
It is something I have been hunting for a long time. Thx for great work.
steps 2 and 3 are giving me error
Thank you very much. Precise and easy to follow.
Cheers
I'm attempting to install JDK now and don't seem to be doing something right. I'm pretty sure it's changed a bit since this thread began. Any chance someone can assist me? I'm looking to go through the Headfirst Java textbook.

getting adb to work???

I followed this
(Setting up the Android SDK
Download the file from above
Unzip to your desktop
Take the "android-sdk-windows" folder and move it to the root of your hard drive (C:\)
Right click on My Computer and click properties
Select the Advanced Tab or Advanced System Setting (Vista/Windows 7)
Select Environment Variables...
Press New
For Variable Name type: adb
For Variable Value type: C:\android-sdk-windows\tools)
and when I try to do this
(1. Run SDK Setup.exe
2. If it gives you an error go to settings and click on "Force http//....."
3. Select all options and let it download and install)
I have issues cause I dont have the SDK Setup.exe I have searched for it and can not find it, please help thanks Davey
also I installed the windows version
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
If you've added the tools folder to your path, you don't need to install anything, just type "adb <command>" in the cmd prompt and you're good to go.
if you talking about this
For Variable Name type: adb
For Variable Value type: C:\android-sdk-windows\tools)
yes i have done it and it still wont work. I have my phone is debugging and on charge only and when i open the cmd and type in adb it gives me is not recoginzied as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file,
then when i type (android-sdk-windows\tools) it gives me the system cannot find the path specified. I am lost
ok So on my other computer I got some progress, I opened sdk manager and got it all updated and the only real problem i am having now is (this is dumb) but I dont know my sdk name, like when it says
cd C:\**your sdk name**\tools (Press Enter)
I have been trying C:\android-sdk-windows\tools
thanks for the help! Davey
thank you I got it running now!!!!!! I did what you said and added it to the path not just a new varibable, thank you very much!!!

How to test roms with android sdk emulator?

Hey so if anyone knows how to test roms on android sdk emulator with your pc please help me!
I found a really old guide from modaco and the problem I first enountered was that it wouldn't give me some ID number or something on cmd.
So a step-by-step guide would be great!
I have the same problem too...
what can we do?
Old topic but my answer would help for people using search button or google
1. Download the Android SDK (which includes the emulator) from here.
2. Extract the downloaded zip.
3. Run a command prompt, and change to the 'tools' directory of the SDK (or add the tools directory to your path).
4. Type 'android list target'
5. Note the 'id' number of the '1.5' target (in my case it's '2')
6. Type 'android create avd -n enhanced -t 2' (substitute 2 with the target number determined above if required)
7. You will be prompted to create a hardware profile. This is optional, but I selected 'yes' and accepted the defaults for everything except RAM, where I gave it 256MB. wink.gif
8. Download and unzip THIS image file.(in this step you can just use your own rom)
9. Copy the above file to the location of the enhanced.avd directory ('C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\.android\enhanced.avd' on Windows XP, and 'C:\Users\<user>\.android\enhanced.avd' on Windows Vista).
10. You're ready! Type 'emulator -avd enhanced' to run! Note: inital boot may take a few minutes!
If you get Java errors, you need to download the JDK for your system from here!
Mac OSX
1. Download the Android SDK (which includes the emulator) from here.
2. Extract the downloaded zip.
3. Run Terminal, and change to the 'tools' directory of the SDK (or add the tools directory to the path settings in ~/.profile).
4. Type './android list target'
5. Note the 'id' number of the '1.5' target (in my case it's '2')
6. Type './android create avd -n enhanced -t 2' (substitute 2 with the target number determined above if required)
7. You will be prompted to create a hardware profile. This is optional, but I selected 'yes' and accepted the defaults for everything except RAM, where I gave it 256MB. wink.gif
8. Download and unzip this image file.(again, here is where you can use your custom rom)
9. Copy the above file to ~/.android/avd/enhanced.avd/system.img (e.g. if you saved it to and unzipped it to downloads enter 'cp ~/Downloads/system.img ~/.android/avd/enhanced.avd/system.img')
10. You're ready! Type './emulator -avd enhanced' to run! Note: inital boot may take a few minutes!
If you get Java errors, you need to download the JDK for your system from here!

[Guide] Getting the Most out of your S20FE

Here's a guide to help you make the most out of your phone
Guides below can be followed by both rooted and unrooted users
Debloat list: https://paste.rs/OLC
Debloating guide:
1) Download Google platform-tools (ADB and fastboot) from here for the operating system you are using on your computer, I will be using Windows for this guide, and extract the zip file to the root directory of your drive in its own folder (For example, C:\platform-tools, inside of the platform-tools folder you should see ADB and fastboot executables as well as other files).
2) On Windows, download and install the Samsung USB Drivers from here, I don't believe other OSes have to do this.
3) On your phone, go to Settings > About phone > Software information and tap Build number 7 or 8 times until you get a pop-up notification saying "Developer options have been enabled."
4) Go back out to the main Settings menu where you will notice a new option called "Developer options". Tap it and scroll down a little bit until you find USB Debugging, turn this option on and keep your phone unlocked (don't turn off the screen).
5) Plug your phone into your computer and open Command Prompt or Terminal and type cd C:\platform-tools and press Enter (Command will differ for the OS you're using).
6) Type ADB devices, give it a few moments, and check your phone for an ADB connection authorization prompt, check the box that says "always allow..." so you don't have to do this every time you want to use ADB.
7) Type ADB shell, the prompt should change from "C:\platform-tools\>" to something like "<phoneserialnumber>:/"
8) Either highlight all of these commands and paste them into the Command Prompt by right-clicking or highlight one command at a time and paste them in one by one

Android 8.1 Car Dash Cam/DVR Navigation Layout Mod Guide (No Root)

Note: I'm not responsible for any damage to your device!
The device tested on:
Model: V10E_TGC
Android Version: 8.1.0
Ram: 2GB
Rom: MZL_V10E_TGC_M5_1000_Media_Sleep_2022062917
OS used Windows 11
Steps:
(On Device)
1: Go to settings, system, then about phone. Tap on build number 7 times to enable developer mode.
2: Press back then head into developer options - Toggle OEM unlocking, USB debugging, Remote ADB (if connected to home network), then enable Adb Root (2846).
(On PC side)
1: Download the Minimal ADB portable zip, then create an ADB folder and copy contents from the adb zip into the created folder, copy cmd.exe from system32 into that folder as well.
2: Open cmd.exe type "adb connect 192.xxx.xx.xxx:5555" will prompt the device - allow the connection, tap accept, and ok.
3: Type "adb remount", then "adb pull /system/qc.prop" (make a copy).
4: Open qc.prop with notepad or editor. in the qc.prop search for (persist.sys.navigationbar.right=)
and change to (persist.sys.navigationbar.right=true), close, and save.
5: Type "adb push qc.prop /system/qc.prob" , then type "adb shell chmod 644 /system/qc.prop" then type "adb reboot".
Sorry, the steps were missing, also there is a way to change the navbar to be on the bottom if you change (#decide the postion of navigationbar. 0:bottom 1:left 2:right
ro.navigationbar.position=1) to (#decide the postion of navigationbar. 0:bottom 1:left 2:right
ro.navigationbar.position=0) but you lose access to the gear icon and reverse cam icon.
