[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhudak:
I haven't seen anything (free) other than Sense that can pull all the contact information from my company Exchange server. Everything I've tried only gets the email address, not physical address and phone numbers.

It's one of the main things that keeps me away from running CM7.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] METDeath:
Sense also has one of the few emails clients I know of that can actually correctly forward emails and attachments. Every time I tried with CM7 it just plain wouldn't forward crap, not the email, not the attachment. Sense? Forwards both like it should. Plus it does email zooming so that those pesky HTML emails get resized and can be scrolled around better than the AOSP email client in CM7.

Note: I am talking about "Email" not "Gmail" which if Google made the email app a user app instead of a system app, they could maybe fix the issue across the board.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rayjd1650:
The Sense UI also has great social network integration. No need to download a facebook or twitter app, just sign in through the Accounts and Sync and use the built-in apps. Even those contacts sync with your phone contacts.

Hi,

I've followed the instructions and installed the F15C Eagle patch / kernel for the Touchpad and all it working nice and fast.

Saying that I'm getting some issues with apps hanging but that may be my wifi.

Is there a documented way to reverse the changes that the F15C Eagle makes and un-install it and put back to the original state?

Thanks

Lee
[TouchPad General] trunklips:
Go into preware-> installed-> kernels. Select remove at the bottom.
[TouchPad General] kt0ce:
Hi, if you want to uninstall the kernel. Simply go to preware, allow it to load. Then click on all application --> Kernel ---> Recovery kernel ---> Install that and will reset it to the original kernel. Then you can install other kernels as you please. Good luck, I found that the uberkernel is the best.
[TouchPad General] lsainsbury:
Thanks all. Thought I'd check first - didn't want to turn it into £115 paperweight!

[Q] Removing F15c Eagle after Reset

I searched for this but couldnt find anything, I seen the instructions to remove F15c Eagle but they don't work for me.

Basically I had F15c Eagle on the machine and did a factory reset, now I've reinstalled preware/govnah added all the feeds etc.. but it doesn't show that F15c is installed (when it actually is, even when I did the factory reset, when the machine rebooted I got the F15c boot loader screen and I am able to use Govnah to overclock)

Also the F15C Eagle Touchpad Icon is showing in my Downloads, when I click on it I just get a black minimized screen, if I tap into it, it goes full screen but nothing happens, and I can't click on the Dropdown arrow at the top left like other apps.

How can I uninstall F15c? I tried "installing it" but it gives me this error after it downloads and tries to install

I am having same issue

I need to send touchpad to HP for repair

I did full reset before removing kernel from Preware....

Can't install or remove F15C right now..

I'm going to try webOS doctor...
[TouchPad General] mojojokho:
Hmm. I seem to have the same issue. Any luck using webos doctor?
[TouchPad General] mojojokho:
I always figured Webos Doctor was kind of a last gasp solution. What I did to fix the F15C inability to install, uninstall, was go to Preware and I installed the "Palm Kernal (Touchpad)" stock kernal first. Crossed my finger as I system rebooted. Seemed like the longest reboot ever. Double checked with Govnah that I was indeed back to crappy, stock, 1.2Ghz, then went back into Preware and installed the latest version of F15C. Reboot, rinse, lather, repeat. Now I'm back to the OC'd state and F15C is back to normal. I hope this helped. If you guys did Webos Doctor, please post your result. I'd like to know for future instance when I might need it :).
[TouchPad General] yiphoming:
1. open preware

2. install the recovery kernel

3. reinstall the kernel which you want to install

[Atrix 4G General] beatphreek:
No they aren't supported by the CM team yet. They are still in pre beta phase.
[Atrix 4G General] beatphreek:
I read in another post that this version of CWM only supports the sd-ext so those of you that like romracers recovery can just keep that.

CWM does support ext4 though and it has for the last couple of point releases I think.
[Atrix 4G General] nitrox1:
Yeah, 5.0.0.1, is available from the website directly.

Will flash tonight and have a nose

Swyped from "Mount" Olympus
[Atrix 4G General] Swiftks:
Well it defaults to the ext-sd, if you have one. Otherwise, I guess it defaults to the internal. The install .zip. and backup/restore features are all automated now, in terms of you not being able to select internal or external; i.e. if you have a ext-sd installed, and you simply select backup in CWM, then the process starts automatically, without giving the option to select where you would like to store the backup. I didn't care for it, and went back to RomRacer's; more options + colors.
[Atrix 4G General] nsaia:
Yeah. I'm having trouble with it too. Will not perform a backup at all. Asking to ensure I have v4.4.0.0 or higher installed. We'll yeah, I've got 5.0 installed!

Going back to romracers as well.

[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] tylermaciaszek:
thank you!

[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] chaostic_2k1:
Update: I poked around a bit, and looked at the ime-htc.apk that is floating around. Decompiled the apk, and found that it's popup alternatives for the virtual keyboard is in res/values/strings.xml, with the fields pointed at it by res/xml-normal-hdpi/*.xml depending on which language/shape/layout keyboard you are using.

So I think I am right in assuming that the hardware keyboard popups are in the device driver. :/ Will investigate further.

Oh, and a note about the sidekick keyboard. You cannot press and hold ALT+SHIFT and a third key at the same time. You can't press any three keys and have it register at the same time at all. Another instance where the g1 was just better :(

Additionally, doesn't seem like all keys respond to a alt-lock+shift-lock the same. The @ and ? key seems to only produce the alt or shift version, while most of the others produce the alt+shift version of the key.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] The Pope of Dope:
This ****ing guy, eh? When can I buy you strippers and blow, eh? I ****ing love you.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] The Pope of Dope:
Port G1 driver? Whoz got the sauce? erm Source?
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] chaostic_2k1:
Well, I figure the g1 just dedicated more gpio than sumsung did for the keyboard. I doubt the g1 driver can be ported. And the sumsung keyboard driver might be hackable, but without the source for it, it be a pain to try. Still looking for the long press keys though.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] sduvick:
I may be confused about your question. I can't seem to understand what you mean by hardware keyboard popup, but yes, the keyboard driver is in the kernel, so you'd need a custom kernel to change that.

The kernel source is available at opensource.samsung.com

If you can pm me/write what you're trying to do/fix (as I'm currently a bit confused as to your goal) I would be open to helping work on this
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] chaostic_2k1:
If you hold down the a key on the keyboard, you get a little popup screen that lets you choose the alternative versions of a, like å, ä, á, etc. Same for holding shift+4 or alt+4, would give you the alternatives for $, like ¥, british pound symbol, etc.

I am trying to find where that information is held. On an ime, it's in the strings.xml file inside the apk. For the hardware keyboard, I'm guessing its in the driver. I'm trying to locate that, so that it can be changed to include more things (and in the sk4g, even add macros like the smilies).

Unfortunately, noone else has found it, or if they have, it's buried in some obscure thread inside some obscure device's forum. The problem with android information, is that with so many devices, and versions, there is a ton of information, being redundantly found/created, and buried under other information.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] sduvick:
Haha I hear that. I guess I was testing it out using the wrong buttons before, as I didn't get that popup before. Now I was able to, but it looks like it's only for certain keys. At any rate, let me look in the kernel source to see if I can find the correct files there.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] The Pope of Dope:
I will donate money to this project. No ****ing joke. I wanna see this **** happen.

$50 is what I'm putting down at the moment. I'll put down more if more coders want to help out sduvick and make this work wonderfully.

Requirements,

01. Have all the features which the OP is attempting to incorporate.

02. Have a secondary .apk which allows users to modify key layout whilst using the phone.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] sduvick:
Update/message towards chaostic: it appears that the longpress popup is coming from /system/framework/services.jar (desmali'd) com/android/server/KeyInputQueue.

On a somewhat related note, trying to find the keymaps for smileys to remove the extra alt added after the '<3' alt key if anyone might know where that is. EDIT: re-read your OP, looks like you couldn't find these either, but apparently this was fixed in the KG2 update, so maybe the kernel updates might give me more details. will update shortly.

UPDATE: found the smileys in /system/framework/framework.jar (desmali'd) com/android/internal/widget/smileys.smali
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] chaostic_2k1:
So the smilies have been found is great, but the two things of note is how difficult it would be for a regular edit, so for rom builders or themers its great, but individuals would be hard press to change it.

Just to make sure, these are the alt+w or alt+e or alt+r smilies/macros, or is it the smiliey key widgets?

Either way it gives me somewhere to look. Seems the longpress alternatives is a longshot for easy modding at this time. But ever forward. Thanks.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] sduvick:
I would integrate it as part of the tweaks thread I've been working out of, but it's a matter of changing some very simple (once you get it extracted and desmali'd) source, just looking through one file and looking for the strings for each smiley. Mind you, this is only for the smiley button itself, that is the popup that appears in messaging when you try to use the smiley button. This doesn't really relate at all to the keyboard at all actually.

Any key presses are gonna be from the kernel somewhere, still waiting on the download, samsung's opensource server is slow as balls.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] lklotz:
Works great; how to edit

I just did this and it solved one of my two huge dissatisfiers with the Sk4G over the G1 and the actual original Sidekicks (where I was one of the people who convinced them to add | and ` and ~ back at Danger).

I really wanted to type ` by itself, so I edited my keymap so that shift-@ is ~ but alt-~ is `. I did this using emacs, with hexl-mode, and it was a snap!

Also, even though I've used adb in the past, I got stuck at su and it did nothing. I realized I needed to be running the SuperUser app first, and once I did that and ^C'd out of the su, it prompted me and I allowed it to remember shell request, and everything from then on worked great!

Thanks!

Can you hack the keyboard to allow virtual keyboard to work while in landscape mode?
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] Ted Kotz:
Thanks that is awesome

This was really helpful.

I'm been bothered with the funky behaviour of shift+0-9

I also mapped alt-a a to escape

and changed alt-q from space to really being tab

The .kl file was also interesting:

/system/usr/keylayout/s3c-keypad.kl

It is just a textfile, so easy to edit and I was able to remap the mostly useless SMILEY key to GRAVE.

which is helpfull when I need a ~.

The .kl file also has all the other buttons on the SK4G so they can be reassigned.

I moved VOICE_INPUT to what was MULTITASKER, so I can enter voice commands without opening the keyboard.

and made myself a ALT_LEFT.
[T-Mobile Sidekick 4G] jakfish:
Smart Quote-enabled Physical Keyboard

First off, a huge thanks to chaostic_2k1, whose hack of the Sidekick 4G keyboard is brilliant. It was the only one I could find, and his instructions are first-rate. Using his modified s3c-keypad.kcm.bin file, I’ve been able to concoct a keyboard that has all of his fine variations along with smart-quote and easier em-dash ability.

If users are trying to write a professional manuscript, they need smart quotes (curly quotes), em dashes, and ellipses. The attached file has these modifications:

ALT-f = left double quotation mark

SHIFT-ALT-f = still gives the left bracket

ALT-g = right double quotation mark

SHIFT-ALT-g = still gives the right bracket

[These brackets are also stock-accessible with ALT-space]

[Right and left double quotation marks are stock-accessible with ALT-k, long press, etc. The keystrokes in this file cut down the number of steps]

ALT-lowercase L = right single quotation mark (curly apostrophe)

SHIFT-ALT-lowercase L = straight apostrophe

ALT-t = regular hyphen

SHIFT-ALT-t = em dash

[The em dash is still stock-accessible with ALT-t, long press, etc.]

The ellipsis is stock-accessible with ALT-space. I didn't modify anything connected with the ellipsis.

Follow the instructions in the first post of this thread for proper s3c-keypad.kcm.bin copying into /system/usr/keychars

Root obviously a must, and I used Total Commander file manager to copy file from sd card to /system/usr/keychars

If using Total Commander, remember to change /system directory to read-write.

Proper screen display of smart quotes: neither ThinkFree or Kingsoft word processors will display the actual right and left double quotes, though the quotes will enter correctly and display on a desktop word processor, printer, etc. In order to see double quotes correctly, users must use QuickOffice or TextMaker word processors [for reasons I can’t figure, KingSoft doesn’t even allow ALT-space or any SHIFT-ALT keystroke].

This keyboard mapping works on my Sidekick 4G, but I take no responsibility for any problem. I’ve also hacked the /system/usr/keylayout/s3c-keypad.kl to change key 54 SMILEY to key 54 TAB WAKE_DROPPED

This changes the SMILEY to a proper tab.

Do take care with the /system/usr/keylayout/s3c-keypad.kl If you screw it up, all physical keys, including Menu, etc, are dead, and you have to touch-screen the restoration of the original file. A little scary.

EDIT/UPDATE: Attached is the kcm file with an additional character: the left apostrophe. SHIFT-ALT-k = left single quotation mark

This is needed for smart quote usage when quoting within double quotes: "So when you said 'yes,' you really meant no."
