[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Snoopo:
Hi there,

how did you change your keyboard layout? As there are so much methods to change it, how did you do it? I am wondering if my method is correct:

1) install CM6-latest (miniCM version) with all hotfixes

- Use the files from: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=982341

2) install CM7-ActivateSEKeyboard.zip

3) CM7-KeyboardUpdate.zip

4) german_underscore.zip

5) qwertz.zip

6) blacktheme.zip

7) wipe cache

8) reboot

9) set language again to german everywhere where it is possible :)

10) reboot second time

It seems everything works but:

- under certain circumstances sym menu freezes

- using andoid onscreen keyboard the hardware-keyboard is still qwerty

Either it's a bug to be fixed or I was doing something wrong. So I ask you:

- Did you recognize that, too and live with that?

- Or did you change your keyboard layout in another way and that works perfect and may you so helpful to tell me and others having my problem how!? :)

Thanks, guys.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] temes:
If you want a QWERTZ keyboard, just change with root explorer's editor in system/usr/keyboard-config/keyprint.xml

THIS:

<script-name="latin" keylayout="qwerty-en"/>

TO

<script-name="latin" keylayout="qwertz"/>

Then save and reboot.

so if i get this right for azerty (got a dutch phone) i do

<script-name="latin" keylayout="qwerty-en"/>

TO

<script-name="latin" keylayout="azery"/>

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] sslanc:
just tried it cause i couldn't wait and it works the other way around :D

i still have issues. When I install the qwertz update I still not have the sym funktion to type "ä" or "ü" :( instead of these symbols i get "*" for typing sym+u. I already replaced the xml files but it didn't wokred.

Are you syncing with Facebook for HTC sense under accounts and sync? It has happened to new too I deleted that sync account then went to messages in manage applications and cleared data. Then re added my Facebook account.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dajogejr:
It has to do with the permissions.

There is a tutorial on how to fix this.

I don't use the Facebook HTC app, I use the Android app.

I had to use the shell command and fix this. Straight forward though...

Let me see if I can find it...it's buried deep in a thread.

I noticed that i cannot repair my phone after installing a custom rom

Is this normal?
[XPERIA X8 General] kuyagaol:
no.

try it with SEUS. it works all the time.
[XPERIA X8 General] chrismt:
Thanks Man! I will try it
[XPERIA X8 General] silentw:
Not all the time, once I bricked my xperia x8 and with SEUS there was no Repair button like there used to be and now there is...

So you can't say that it works all the time :)

Yeah, but we can say that flashtool works all the time (provided it has drivers from PCC) ;)

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gopher love:
ok so I have been reading and what not... I have searched far and wide but still don't quite understand. But anyways here's my question.

Pros and cons of going to the other hboot?

Is there any reason to change my radio version? Will it benefit me at all?

is this idea of the way the phone works kind correct?

The phone starts up, hboot will load up the os files (which is my royalginger rom I installed)

So changing the hboot ver is like changing your BIOS ver on a computer motherboard.

now, what kind of tech is actually in this phone... A proc, graphics proc, memory, some storage space. Can any of these parts be modified, upgraded, or even touched? Or is it all permanently on the phones main chip.

And the last question. I know its possible to overclock phones.. But what is the best way to do it? Like, on my computer I never oc using software, always do it through the bios. But what's the best way on the glacier?

Thanks for answering any of these ?s... It'll all help me better understand my phone and how it works and I would like to learn this stuff well so I can help people out on this forum someday soon
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h22aboi:
To overclock:

1. Flash overclock kernal.

2. Install setcpu from market.

3. Go crazy.

4. You didn't search far and wide enough.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
the .85 hboot will allow you to flash any part of a ROM, wipe any partition on the phone, and install recovery images from the Engineering scree. It helps you to not brick your phone. There have been a couple of people on this forum that would of bricked their device if they didn't have it.

Is there any reason to change my radio version? Will it benefit me at all?

is this idea of the way the phone works kind correct?

IIRC the HBoot would be similar to a BIOS. It physically loads the OS. However i've never changed a BIOS on a Windows Computer so i cannot tell you.

It's all soldered into the main board and cannot be tampered with unless you feel like soldering, writing a kernel and a new OS.

The best way to over clock a ROM is to download and install a kernel. You will need a program similar to SetCPU to manage the speed. If you should download Cyanogen(mod)'s CM7.x it will have a overclocking kernel natively.

No problem, feel free to ask question and use the search alot of stuff as already been hit on.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smatthew45:
well as far as the radio goes, some people (such as myself) have reported a better signal by flashing the newer radio, i noticed between 1-2 bar increase within the same spot in my room :D
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acsi007:
With the caveat that, not always but often, better a radio with better signal will come at the expense of battery life.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darinmc:
screw up your bios and you pull the cmos battery, unplug the power supply and you're fine. screw up the radio or hboot and you have nothing to fall back on. A phone is a lot like a pc, without all of the fallback and replaceable parts.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] domynaite:
I've been using the engineering radio for a few weeks now, no complaints, was worth the simple flash.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gopher love:
1. ok so to overclock I flash an overclock kernel. Can I flash in a new kernel without changing to a different rom (as in can I keep my royalginger thing I flashed in)

2. By installing the engineering hboot I can change any part of the rom. Does this mean I can do the above? Change my kernel without changing the whole rom?

3. A newer radio has the potential to increase my signal?

4. I've been searching for a while and still can't figure out the difference between an asop, sense, etc types of roms?

You guys are an amazing help... Thank you so much
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
YES. You need to make sure that you use a AOSP ROM kernel or a Sense Kernel. I'm not 100% sure about Royal Ginger. I believe it's AOSP but you'll want to double check

Yes. But you can flash kernels w/o needing the E-hBoot. You can flash them from the recovery. and not they will not mess with anything.

Yes some people are reporting that.

AOSP = Android Open Source Project. Look at the G2 for an idea. Cyanogen has AOSP style UI, but they throw some extra options in.

Sense = HTC Skin. It's what the Droid Inc, Desire, come with

MotoBlur = Motorola's Skin all of the Moto Droid line & the Cliq come with

Espresso / MySense = T-Mobile's custom Skin for the MyTouch 4G
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gopher love:
thanks man. That helped a lot. One last question? By check what it is do you mean look up on the internet or on my phone
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
Kernels are based on the style of skin that you are using. We uses either Sense or AOSP. You need to know what type of ROM you are using, and flash the correct kernel. Meaning you cannot use a AOSP kernel on a Sense ROM. So make sure you know what RoyalGinger is prior to digging though Kernels.

Is there a way to confirm or verify if I have engineering boot installed?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darinmc:

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kimbernator:
Could you explain how the eng hboot can help me not brick my phone?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
Because it will allow you flash, wipe, or load specific sections of your ROM or allow you to reflash recovery images if one should fail. most people will never encounter this but it's a good failsafe to have on your phone.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kimbernator:
So if i ever have an issue like some people are having where recovery says something like "cannot mount cache" causing the flashing to not work, I can fix that through the eng hboot?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smatthew45:
faux's kernels clearing state which rom they will work for, so pick a rom, then pick a kernel if you want, overclocking isnt really necessary on our phones since its plenty fast already :D

btw royalginger is based on cm7 which is based on aosp
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neidlinger:
i assume it would depend on the exact reason why it stop reading the cache partition. I do know i've see a few threads where people flashed a different recovery image and was able to re flash a ROM and getting it work. But then again it'd all depend on why it failed.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gopher love:
Yea.. The phone is plenty fast.. But that's just me.. i like to see how much father I can push it.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donj001:

EDIT:

While we're on the subject of radios, where can I download the latest version for mt4g
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _ice_:
engineering is not a RADIO its an SPL aka the bootloader. like the guy said about BIOS.

DO NOT confuse radios with bootloaders.

Radios are updated constantly in order to match towers for signal, or better gps lock sometimes even wifi.

[Vibrant General] djordan79:
So I've been using Barnacle to tether to my laptop at work when I get bored. Yesterday I went to login to facebook and Whamo! A TMobile splash page pops ups talking about getting a tethering plan! That's the only page I can access now when I try to tether. Sucks!!! Looks like they finally caught on.
[Vibrant General] Tarzanman:
yeah. People started getting these a few weeks ago. Go ahead and use that search bar.
[Vibrant General] djordan79:
Go ahead and EDIT....... Do NOT swear on the forum
[Vibrant General] Sdobron:
How about you use the built in access point in settings? That still works. Barnacle is garbage.
[Vibrant General] Stargazer3777:
If you have a custom ROM (Most of them added this in) you can use the stock Samsung AP:

Settings--> Wireless and Network--> Mobile AP. Then go to settings, set up your SSID and security phrase, check to enable, enjoy.

Been using it sparingly at work when I need to get around the firewall, worked as of about 45 minutes ago.
[Vibrant General] djordan79:
Thanks. I'll try that. I had a feeling there would be a work around.

[Vibrant General] Shortbus-Driver:
If ap isnt working.....might be a bad flash

...it works well for me atleast for other people using me as thier wifi hot spot and for my kids wii
[Vibrant General] shreddintyres:
If you are still getting the splash page its possible that you tether wayy too much and T-Mobile has flagged your account for tethering exorbitantly.

On average how much data do you reckon you tether on a monthly basis? (btw im tethering right now to send this message) I tether roughly 1-2 gig at most per month but its spread out over the course of the month.

If you dont tether that much or that often i would suggest starting fresh with a clean install of another or the same rom, if that still doesnt work it sounds like you are SOL.

[Vibrant General] DjIsD:
I agree with you about the Mobile AP, it's the best. The people who contribute to this Vibrant Forum are also awesome, the amount you have taught me thank you.

Kept my Vibrant (in soft brick at the moment but will fix it) but got hung up in the moment at a TMO store and bought the SGS 4G. Couldn't let go of the Vibrant so was playing with both. The Vibrant is going to be a hard phone to do better on! Off to return the now unrooted SGS 4G to exchange for a different phone or just return. This Vibrant forum spoiled me and then to see what's going on on the SGS 4G forum is just sad.

Here you are apologizing or explaining yourself which is was really nice, on the SGS 4G forum all they do is blast people. I will being hitting the Thanks button more after my experience over there. Thanks for all you've done to contribute to this forum.
[Vibrant General] kawika:
I have read posts of others getting this page randomly using every tether app regardless ie, Mobile AP, Barnacle, wifi tether. Once in a while i might have to reset my settings or turn off/on tethering and it werks again but its just for a bad connection never the "Tmobile tethering plan" page.

I have been capped once before and received the dreaded throttle down txt message. It only affected my tether ability the phones internet really didn't take a hit at all. At least not noticeably. Other than the throttle down (which has nothing to do with Mobile AP werkin and is totally my fault) I personally have not had any issues with it.
[Vibrant General] djordan79:
Still get the tmo splash page on my laptop at work..... but can get internet just fine at home on my iMac..... both using AP.... weird
[Vibrant General] engljeff:

I couldn't find it either.

I could only access it if I wanted to change the phone wallpaper (not the lockscreen wallpaper) but it still didnt give its location. It is probably buried in a zip file or something
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] GGXtreme:
Probably stored in a system apk (like SystemUI.apk or framework-res.apk/touchwiz-framework-res.apk). Browse through some of them with 7-zip, extract any /res/drawable***** folders and look through them, you might find it. If you do, just copy it to your SD card and load it from there.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] sckc23:
its inside framework-res.apk under system/framework.

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] esk02k:
any filemanager just about. I use Linda/root explorer.

Wrong y'all

Go with root explorer to data/data/com.coliris.media/files and delete zzzzzz_lockscreen_wallpaper.jpg and you will auto revert to default whatever it is in framework-res.

Or you can delete gallery data In settings and restart phone.
