[Droid Incredible General] SubMatrix:
did they improve their default dictionary? last release was missing some essential words with apostrophes like "you're" for example. Really annoying.

edit: answered my own question after updating. all the words with apostrophes are now included. LOVING this new version of swype.
[Droid Incredible General] Fergusonfox7:
The new version rocks!
[Droid Incredible General] mtbman:
+1 I'm really digging this keyboard as well
[Droid Incredible General] ericlmccormick:
Stoke it and poke it! :d
[Droid Incredible General] POQbum:
Swype is not in the market, where are you downloading this?
[Droid Incredible General] velopirate:
I still like the FlexT9 keyboard better, though.
[Droid Incredible General] k_nivesout:
You have to go to their website and sign up for the beta.

I really like the functionality of swype, I just wish the keyboard wasn't so damn ugly..
[Droid Incredible General] parkschr:
does the new version have a mic?
[Droid Incredible General] Flyhalf205:
Yes it does. The last version had a mic. Well on mine it did.
[Droid Incredible General] Hooya:
Hmm.... Just decided to go with the latest version other than a slightly hacked version I'd been using for a while. This version doesn't swype at all. I can type normally, but swyping doesn't do anything.

Any ideas?

Nevermind, says invalid license, even though I just installed it through the official installer... Just didn't complete the install properly I guess.
[Droid Incredible General] Deleted member 2776902:
I had that happen. I just did the generate new license, and it fixed it. Also might try a reboot.
[Droid Incredible General] kazheeizm:
thanks for info, ok downloading~
[Droid Incredible General] Lopan12:
I was reading somewhere that they were cool with metamorph skins to change the look of it...but I was having trouble finding a walkthrough for how to install said skins...haven't gone back to look again yet.
[Droid Incredible General] k_nivesout:
Yeah, there's actually a warm-themed swype to use with warm z that looks fantastic but I don't like having to use metamorph and I'm not sure if it would work on other roms..

[T-Mobile LG G2x] c00lkatz:
SOLVED: It was the cable. :rolleyes:

Searching around, this seems to be a common problem with a variety of phones, some it works, some don't. My old G1 worked flawlessly in this manner.

Whenever I have a pair of headphones or my auxiliary cable for my car plugged in, the internal mic doesn't work when I receive a call. This sucks, because if I'm listening to music in my car and get a call, I have to remove the phone from the window mount and unplug the cable while driving down the road, or fiddle around with the power button to switch the phone to speaker mode (screen goes black after answering a call with the cable plugged in).

Is there a solution for this other than spending $180 on a bluetooth integration kit for my car (was looking at the Parrot MKi9000 or KlaT7)? I'm a little scared of this route considering the problems people have been having with A2DP on Gingerbread. I'm hoping the official Gingerbread release (if it EVER releases) will fix the A2DP and/or this issue. I am running Froyo right now, but am eagerly anticipating the official Gingerbread release.

Thoughts?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wmm:
That does not match my experience with the stock ROM. I listen to Pandora in my car via an FM transmitter that is plugged into my earphone jack, and I receive calls all the time without having to go into speakerphone mode: the caller's voice comes through the car loudspeakers, and they hear me just fine. I just ran an experiment with a pair of earphones (no microphone) plugged in and called myself from my landline and I definitely heard it loud and clear over the landline phone when I blew into the microphone hole in the bottom of the G2x.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] c00lkatz:
That definitely is odd. The phone is rooted along with faux's kernel, but I have the stock ROM. When I have the cable plugged in no one hears me on the other side, and voice dialing doesn't work either. Is your G2x all stock?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wmm:
Yes, completely stock and unrooted.

Have you tried it with a different cable or with plain vanilla earphones?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] c00lkatz:
No I haven't tried a different one yet. I'll try that when I get home tonight. Thanks for your input!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
My guess is its the cable. Probably something with the connector is tricking the phone into thinking it has a microphone built in, just like when you plug in a headset it mutes your handset mic.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] c00lkatz:
You are both correct. Just tried a different cable and it works great.

The cable I was using was the one included with the T-Mobile Window Mount Kit. I was using it because I have the Speck case and the original one I bought from MonoPrice.com was too thick to fit through the hole. The T-Mobile cable was skinnier and just barely fit. I took the phone out of the case and tried the one I bought from MonoPrice and it worked perfectly.

Thanks for the help!

Now I need to decide whether or not to bore out the hole larger on a $30 case. As most reviews have stated, it does scratch very easily and is very difficult to get the phone out. Anyone know of any other cases that have a larger diameter hole for the headphone out?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] matsonfamily:
The last line of my /init.rc file:

# +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
# NAGSM_ANDROID_FRWK_JUSTIN_20101013 TMO LogMeIn
service RescueStarter /system/bin/RescueStarter
user nobody
group input graphics
oneshot

I'm just wondering what's this doing here? I would think this is a T-Mobile service, based on the "TMO", but I cannot find anything about the RescueStarter service online. RescueStarter & RescueServer are in /system/bin/, and hex-dump seems to insinuate (although you can gather this just from the names of the files) it's a remote control that opens a port and listens for a request. I'm assuming that because the user is "nobody", that it cannot run... but not sure. Another assumption is that it provides graphics, like VNC, since it belongs to the groups "input" & "graphics". Again, just a guess. I normally work on Debian Linux systems, btw, not Android. Port scan shows nothing open (TCP 1-65535, and I didn't find anything with a non-conclusive UDP scan, either).

Maybe there's someone smart out there that can shed some light on this for me? Or maybe tell me the proper place to ask? Thanks!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schmittx:
- Background -

I decompiled HtcMusic.apk and edited AndroidManifest.xml to allow landscape mode by changing all instances of "screenOrientation=nosensor" to "screenOrientation=sensor"

I then recompiled and pushed back to the phone...however I couldn't get the app to show up in Rosie (permissions were correct, rebooted, all that). I finally managed to get it to display by signing the apk...this seem strange, I thought system apps did not need to be signed? Furthermore, I have signature verification disabled through ClockworkMod...

After pushing the modded/re-signed app, HTC Music appears to work fine in landscape and portrait...however I just noticed a strange bug...

- Problem -

While in landscape mode, the app will close (like a force close, but no prompt) after playing any part of a song for ~30 seconds. This does NOT happen in portrait mode.

Anyone have some insight or is able to help me troubleshoot? I'm good with the basics of dev work but my raw coding skills are very rusty...

ROM is latest 4.22.651.2 deodexed/rooted, bone stock besides that...

[Samsung Infuse 4G] razor950:
Hi everyone, this kernel aims to be fast and stable and have good battery life. It should be what the infuse comes with.

Latest features:

- Compiled using codesourcery 2009 (will be updated to 2010 which brings optimizations and speed)

This kernel has/is:

- Works on all voodoo enabled roms

- Currently not included neldar's BackLightNotification 2.3

- Includes supercurio's Voodoo Sound v9

- Includes jhash3 function for performance and reliability

- Adjusted kernel HZ value to improve smoothness

- Properly working TinyRCU for better speed and efficiency

- Patched lowmemorykiller for compatibility with TinyRCU

- Modified Initramfs for performance

- BFQ is the default i/o scheduler (other i/o schedulers will be tested as time goes by)

If your keeping up with h8rift's rom Refuse(1.4 and up) then your using my kernel :)

Everyone else, the zip is for flashing via cwm and the tar is to flash via odin.

Note: I do own a infuse as of 06/17 but if you'd like to donate because of

my work, feel free to do so and thanks :)

SOURCE is UPDATED:

So download this zip flash with red cwm that's it?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Frooty:
Do you need enough donations to buy an Infuse before you start working on CM7, or are you gonna use some witchcraft to port it over without even having one if people donate some money to you?

If you need an Infuse and everyone starts to donate, I'd jump in to and donate some money. Or if you're able to do it with just donations and no phone, I may donate as well.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] razor950:
I do not ask for money to keep development going....

Donations would go straight to buying a infuse but I might be willing to just go out giving a certain amount of donations and I am not sure because I've never really asked to donate...

just to double check, is BLN working?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Grim Reaper:
Yep. Just flash with red CWM.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] tyshemi:
How do I know if I got it done my kernel build doesn't say refuse?

[Samsung Infuse 4G] razor950:
I am going to bed, i know h8rift tested it today and bln was working, I'll double check tomorrow...

it won't be a completely noticeable difference yet until more changes but BLN is nice (I'll check why its not working)

Only thing I can suggest is try latest refuse 1.4 rom and let me know if BLN works then.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] tyshemi:
Can't tell if I got it but benchmark is stuck at video decoding and won't move? Can someone tell me how to see if it flashed ok?

Ah alright.

And it looks like BLN is working for me! I just installed BLN and got a text, and the backlights lit up! Thanks a lot! You are the man!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Frooty:
I also got stuck at Video Decoding in the benchmark. Outside of that everything seems to be working fine so far.

Edit: Nevermind, it looks like the front facing camera is broken again. I was on the newest Infused rom and it worked there, but after flashing this kernel it doesn't work anymore. My phone froze after I tried taking a picture.

Same here. Got into a bootloop. Going back to 1.3 fixed it.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] kcab87:
Hmm that's odd. I got the problem that mrzzheng is getting. I get to the lockscreen and as soon as the media scanner runs it reboots. So I quickly held the power on and pressed recovery. I thought I was bricked. I would've been screwed cuz I'm at work haha!

So what changes should we see on our devices or is the phone going to perform better? Thx for this update.

Windows? If so you could try, right click > properties> untick read only> OK> move as you like .

Sounds like you has sumthin' fishy goin' on though. The CWM .zip dl's fine for me.

You could also Download from phone, with xda app or browser (dolphin,skyfire,firefox, etc ..) and move from dl folder on phone to root of SD , reboot and flash.

Went into cmw got defused zip from tapatalk folder and flashed but once rebooted the about phone kernal doesn't say defused, still says 2.x.x.x

That may be normal. I cant remember, if it was 2 line support in rom or name left off kernel ... but i have seen this a few days ago... lol... for the life of me cant remember the combo. If it flashed well I would say you are fine.

Isn't this a voodoo kernel? Can voodoo kernels read rfs partitions?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] LinuxBozo:
Yes, voodoo kernels can still read RFS partitions because the RFS drivers are still there, and you can also disable voodoo at any time, which uses RFS again instead of ext4.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] JordanED69:
sgs.flasher works awesome
[Samsung Infuse 4G] welchertc:
I seem to be experiencing a little glitch after flashing this today...not sure if it started today or not though. I'm running Infused 1.5, and flashed this kernel through CWM this morning. Before flashing I disabled lagfix, then re enabled it once I flashed the kernel.

When I was outside tonight though, I noticed that my capacitive buttons periodically flicker when the screen is off. They don't fully turn on, it's just a quick flash of probably half the normal brightness. It seems to happen anywhere from every 15 to 30 seconds.

Has anybody experienced anything similar? I'm thinking it may just be a bad flash...if nobody else has this I'll just try reflashing tomorrow, maybe using the .tar with odin this time.

Also, was it necessary to disable lagfix for the flash? I know that for captivate roms you always had to for full roms. Since owning my Infuse I've only flashed Infused 1.5, but is it necessary to disable for just a kernel flash?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] JordanED69:
i think.its cuz.u.disabled lagfix. there was no need to. u just flash this kernel over infused kernel.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] speedfreak228:

[Samsung Infuse 4G] tyshemi:
Yes you will I used all kernels buddy Stay with.his its great.batt life
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
Where is the git for your initramfs? What is included in the kernel does not match anything on your or LinuxBozo's initramfs repos on github.

For example, init.rc has the following content in your kernel at the end of the file of the running kernel:

service bootanim /system/bin/bootanimation
user graphics
group graphics
disabled
oneshot

which is not present in any initramfs repo I've found so far.

I'm working with bedwa's overclock/undervolt kernel sources, and one thing I can't figure out - either it is his kernel or gtg465x's initramfs, but dmesg does nothing when a kernel built on his sources is running. Got any hints on how I might fix that kernel?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bedwa:
in your initramfs in the default.prop, I believe that you have to put ro.debuggable=1 instead of 0....
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
I remember you mentioning that once - I tried it and it didn't change anything.

The defuse kernel's initramfs has it set to 0. In fact it looks like defuse's default.prop is exactly what is in the various git repos, but other things are different. It's hard to read through init.rc in detail via ADB.

Is there a way to extract the initramfs from a kernel that has it "baked in"? (Never mind, found the answer but haven't tried it yet - http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=Extract_initramfs_from_zImage )

Gonna extract and diff when I can, gotta get ready for work now.

Edit: Extraction failed, will poke at it when I get home.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] wasonamit:
Sorry for this stupid question. But I downloaded it and flashed it, it said reboot ( via that big blue letters...) I did...

Now how do I know it is installed....The Kernel version in About phone is 2.6.32.9
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
adb shell in and run "cat /init.rc" - look for the lines I posted a few posts up. Right now that init.rc content is unique to the Defuse kernels.

Going by Linux kernel revision won't work - all Infuse builds (stock or modified) are currently variants of 2.6.32.9. This will change when Gingerbread drops, as it will likely be based off of a newer Linux kernel.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] LinuxBozo:
Entropy, the bootanim is there in my initramfs init.rc, it's just commented out. Voodoo lagfix enables it in the startup (/voodoo/scripts/init_functions.sh), so it's not necessary in the init.rc.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
Whether or not it's necessary, it is present, and is different from any other kernel I've run, so it at least it provides a way to identify which kernel is running.

I figured out a way to extract it so I'll attempt to build a kernel against it tonight and see if it re-enables dmesg. Dmesg works with Defuse, but not with Infusion or derivatives and I'm trying to figure out why. :)

Edit: Well, initramfs doesn't seem to be it, dmesg still is not working on this kernel. I've seen some of the Cappy kernels reference removal of logging, but I haven't yet found the responsible commit...
