UPDATE:

I found that you DO need the Power Control WIDGET on the home screen. I was having problems after turning off switching from Wifi to 3G.

Still researching 4G/3G, updated some other settings.
[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
updated, changed allow purging of assets to be unchecked. better performance.
[EVO Shift 4G General] konichwa:
THANKS!

Thank you Vico! It was a pleasure to meet you the other night =)

I am still trying to figure out if they have a Voicemail app that works well now.. :)

Best
[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
Google voice! Nice meeting you too!
[EVO Shift 4G General] thronnos:
I love arguing voicemail! Lol, i personally use YouMail... Many nice features

updated the instructions, will make some more updates later today.
[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
Updated how to flash instructions, added some more info, screenshots, and added credits to the people that have educated or helped me and contributed to the original post.

Google voice won't stop the annoying text messages all the time, just a fyi.
[EVO Shift 4G General] jesusice:
FYI: Yes it will.
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
Never did for me...
[EVO Shift 4G General] jesusice:
I guess I should clarify. What I and Vicodan mean is that if you route your voicemails thru Google via Google Voice and not thru Sprint's voicemail then you don't have the issue. People can use Sprint's VVM if they prefer but IMO Voice is better and makes switching ROMs a lot easier. Just login, install Voice and there all your voicemails are.

I use Voice for SMS too so I don't have to worry about backing up texts when switching ROMs either.
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
Some how my GV would not stop the messages. And yes I went online on my pc to my GV settings and I was still getting text messages. Not sure why but with sprintVVM this doesn't happend. GV doesn't have MMS either.
[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
I still prefer the stock CM7 messaging app over Google voice because it keeps 1 thread for every person so if you and your girlfriend have 5000 texts it's not broken up over 365 days which IMO is annoying.

I will be rewriting this thread shortly, the latest nightly changed a few things.

Sometimes you need to delete/disable sprint carrier integration and re-add it. As noted in the OP of this thread.

Rooted Shift Unable to change defaults SMS App

VicoDan, I followed your rooting instructions for my shift.

I have had issues with black screen that generally can only be fixed with adb reboot since vol (+) power bootloader is unreliable but will wrestle with that another time.

I cannot change my default SMS application. Its using stock 2.3.7 Messages app. Im guessing that this is Google Apps.

I have attempted via manage application 'reset defaults' but is greyed out. GOSms is also greyed out . I don't know where else to look.

From Your Videos: John Malcovich sounds just like YOU. You may be entitled to some patent infringement cash. Its very popular now.

Rooted Cyanomod 7 Black/Low Screen EVO Shift 4G

Phone is operational, lights keyboard and behaves normally from what i can feel. Here it is:

What at first I thought was black screen I was mistaken. I could actually see clock and Icons under certain light conditions. This is remarkably hard to make out. ADB reboot corrects it. Phone button reboot (Volume down with power) is not reliable.

And That's That.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] hatcyl:
SOURCE CODE ATTACHED

This is the official thread for the "Change Shoulder Buttons" app.

Compatibility:

At this point it looks like the app fully works for some devices, partially works for others, and not at all for some. Different ROMS may also affect functionality.

I am currently working on a "configuration" option which will allow users to calibrate the app for their specific device.

Update

This app has been updated.

No more restart required.

2.3

1. App is now free!

This app is now free!

Link:

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.hatcyl.android.Change_Shoulder_Buttons

Description:

This app will allow you to use the shoulder buttons (L and R) of the Xperia Play for different functions.

You can use them to:

None: Stops the service. Shoulder buttons will stay at default.

Media: L will be previous and R will be next for media.

Camera: R will be focus and take picture.

Volume: L will be volume up and R will be volume down.

Up/Down: L will be up and R will be down.

Navigate: L will be browser back and R will be browser forward.

Advanced:

Tasker Support! (Kinda)

To change button modes do the following:

Action -> Misc -> Action Intent

Action: "com.hatcyl.android.Change_Shoulder_Buttons.ACTION_CHANGE_MODE"

Extra: "Mode:XXXXX"

See screenshot, no quotes, case sensitive.

Note: The game function of the buttons never get disabled. This app just listens for those buttons and then executes a command.

Coming Soon:

1. Custom Mode

2. Support for more Xperia Play devices / ROMS.

3. Real Tasker Support Way Later

4. Some automation maybe

Please post all questions, comments, bugs, and requests in this thread.

Thank You!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Logseman:
How about assigning the keys for volume control? In book reading Apps, L and R are much more convenient than the volume buttons when I have to flip the page.

A widget for quick mode switching could be nice as well.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] hatcyl:
Sure I can add that. But remember, a restart is still required.

Widget, probably not ... or maybe later ... im not so good with them.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] cutthroat31:
Nice app...but when I set the shoulder buttons for media it keeps skipping and rewinding music when I'm playing a game... Lol.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] hatcyl:
You mean because you press L and R right?

Once I figure out how to change the buttons without a restart then we could use something like Tasker to change them based on different conditions. Camera if CAMERA is open, Music only if music app is opened, Game otherwise. Or maybe just manually change them faster.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] cutthroat31:
Yeah it's when I press the L and R.

Oh ok...I'm not too familiar with changing stuff on my Play yet so I'm still learning as I go but great app nonetheless.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Leraeniesh:
This seems like a paid version for an app that is already free.

https://market.android.com/details?id=seb.button.changer

Same functions, same results.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] zerojay:
Yep, there's already a free app by an XDA member.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ps3taker:
any way to achive this without restart? Would it work if you assign each button to a separate app (similary to assigning to camera currently I assume and probably restart first time only). The app you assign simply check what is required in an extra config file which can be changed on the fly without need to restart. Is this possible at all or is there a particular limitation how android works with those buttons? Thanks in advance
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] hatcyl:
Yup, I actually posted that in the OP.

It hasn't been working for some people including me, maybe different models are different.

Anyways, if this app sells at all that developer will be first in the donate list along with the guy who found a way to use the official PSX emulator with custom images.

---------- Post added at 02:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:05 PM ----------

This is coming soon, it was in the market description but I posted it in the OP.

About your idea, it wouldn't work for two reasons.

1. You can't assign a button to an app (that I know of)

2. You wouldn't want to open an app every time you hit a button (especially when playing a game) it would be too slow.

I am exploring two ideas to get this working.

1. Find what causes those files to be loaded. Find away to restart that and force it to load the files again.

2. A much harder way, but this one will work for sure (I've got a proof of concept but no time yet.)
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ps3taker:
Thank you for explaining. I look forward to the no reboot version. Page up and down option would be great. Many thanks in advance

Sent from my R800i
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] typikal82:
Can you add functionality to the default web browser? Like make L be the back button and R be the Forward button?

I really liked that function on my PSP browser (years ago when I used it every so often).

Also, add the functionality to the default Launcher? L for next left screen, R for next right screen. I'm not sure if either of these is even possible, but just throwing some ideas at you!

I'd be down to purchase it if you added either one. Thanks!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] LegionTHEFecalExcretion:
Take that even further, how about a completely Xperia-Play optimized launcher? ADW is open source if not mistaken.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] hatcyl:
Ha ha, you guys are trying to change a simple file edit into a full blown alternate OS.

Sorry guys, not happening anytime soon, I still havent been able to change buttons without a restart yet!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] typikal82:
I'd settle for the web browser L and R function :D
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ps3taker:
I will settle for pgdown pgup or even dpadup and down for shoulder buttons as long as they don't overwrite their function implemented already in games, emulators and camera mod apps. There is another post regarding shoulder buttons for ereaders - i'm away from my pc so cannot link - but it recommends another app there too.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Axxion:
Installed this, disabled my buttons!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] hatcyl:
Sorry, the files are different in 2.3.2 vs 2.3.3.

I will disable the app for now. I deserve that 1 star rating for that.

Anyways, download the attached file, extract the file inside and copy it (using any file manager, I use EStrong) to /system/usr/keylayout override any existing file.

Reboot afterwards, this should fix your issue.

Again sorry, I'm bringing the app down for now. I'll almost done with a big update that will not require restarts anyways.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Axxion:
It's alright dude! I fixed it myself, just restored from my backup. Thought you outa know though! Look forward to the no reboot version!!

(p.s. Yours is the only button change app that actually worked...apart from the obvious issue :p...so thanks!!)
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] hatcyl:
For anyone who was waiting. App has been updated.

No restart required anymore.

More modes coming soon.

... ...

This app pretty much uses the same approach I am going to use to translate buttons presses into touchscreen presses.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] morkli:
Hi,

For those that want to connect their Galaxy Tab 10.1 to a pure IPSEC Cisco VPN server, the latest VPNC Widget (v1.18) in the Android Market now works on the Galaxy Tab 10.1 :)

I've had VPNC Widget working great on my SGS2 for a while, but it when I tried on the my Galaxy Tab 10.1, it only worked after some tweaking that did not survive a reboot. I've been communicating with the app's developer and doing some testing for him. Now, the latest version in the Android Market works great on the Galaxy Tab 10.1 too :D

To get it working, did the following:

Rooted my Galaxy Tab 10.1

flashed PhantomHacker's StarBurst ROM http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1197776, although other ROMs should work fine too

flashed pershoot's kernel http://droidbasement.com/db-blog/?p=2357

flashed pershoot's SU/BusyBox/Misc tools http://droidbasement.com/db-blog/?p=1926

downloaded pershoot's lib-2636.4.tar.gz (Kernel Modules) http://droidbasement.com/db-blog/?p=2357

used Root Explorer from Android Market https://market.android.com/details?id=com.speedsoftware.rootexplorer&feature=search_result to extract tun.ko from lib-2636.4.tar.gz

used Root Explorer copy tun.ko to /data/local/modules

used Terminal Emulator from Android Market https://market.android.com/details?id=jackpal.androidterm&feature=search_result and issued the following commands:

su

insmod /data/local/modules/tun.ko

installed latest VPNC Widget from Android Market https://market.android.com/details?id=com.gmail.mjm4456.vpncwidget&feature=search_result

Configured VPNC Widget in Apps

Added VPNC Widget as a widget to home screen - important step

Tap on VPNC Widget in home screen to start/stop VPN client

I'm hoping this will help others who need a Cisco pure IPSEC VPN connection on their Galaxy Tab 10.1.

Cheers,

morkli.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] audioboxer217:
First off, thanks for the post!

However, after going through this I was still unable to get it to work. After trying to connect I took a look at the log and found the following error:

Error: no access to TUN device!
can't open /dev/net/tun, check that it is either device char 10 200 or (with DevFS) a symlink to ../misc/net/tun (not misc/net/tun): No such file or directory

So I used ADB to check for the 'tun' device and found that there is no /dev/net directory at all. Have I missed something or done something wrong?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] morkli:
Yes, very sorry, I forgot to add a few important steps regarding tun.ko. I've updated my OP above. The changes should get it working for you. You might be able to use ADB instead of Root Explorer and Terminal Emulator if you like.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] jfl0wers:
thanks for the directions

I will give it a try, I can't get anyconnect working
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] morkli:
No problem. Yes, anyconnect won't work with older pure IPSEC Cisco VPN servers that require a group password. Thankfully, VPNC Widget does.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] audioboxer217:
That was what I was missing :) It is now working. Thanks so much!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] stupendiousman:
How did you contact him? I have something different I'd like to him to help me with. I'd like vpnc to connect to an juniper srx.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] morkli:
VPNC Widget is designed for connecting to Cisco pure IPSec VPN servers. I doubt that it would be easy to make it work with Juniper's SRX series. Have you tried the Junos Pulse app from the Android Market?

Anyway, the VPNC Widget developer's email address is there in the Android Market. That is how I contacted him.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Conan179:
Hello

Great instructions!

After I've done everything in the manual if there are any vpn connection. The error message I'm hanging on as screnshots.

i hav a 10.1v tab with isi rom 1.02v.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] morkli:
Sorry, don't know about that error. Maybe try contacting the developer of VPNC Widget to see if he can help. His email address is available in the Android Market.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Dracultepes:
Hi

i have a problem. I rooted my GTP7500 3g Stock Rom with this method. All worked fine.

now i tried this instructions and after applying "pershoot's SU/BusyBox/Misc tools" over my recovery i lost my root access. I cant get su in terminal emulator and also the FileManagerHd says that this is not a rooted device.

After applying the root.zip again i have root and can get it in terminal emulator, but there is no instmod command. The terminal editor says:"sh: instmod: not found".

Any suggestions? Where did i make the mistake?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Conan179:
you hav send the su command in the terminal bevor istmod?

i have it forget.

Greetz Conan
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Dracultepes:
sure i tried

i attached 2 screenshot from my terminal emulator
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Conan179:
on the left screnshot hat the terminal dosnt su right,

on the right screnshot, the comand is "instmod /data/local/modules/tun.ko" not "istmod" only!

coole tastartur, wo hast du die her?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Dracultepes:
On the left side is after flashing "pershoot's SU/BusyBox/Misc tools" no one of my apps get su rights not even my file manager or the rom manager. The superuserapp is there, but no app can gain su.

The screenshot on the right side shows after flashing the root.zip again. All apps can gain su. And there is no instmod. But im not sure if i has instmod aber flashing pershoot's SU/BusyBox/Misc tools. i only type instmod without /data/... because im to lazy. If i type the whole command with /data/.. there is the same error.

I kepp the main conversation english, so others could follow.

Das ist Thumb Keyboard 4.

Ich versuchs morgen weiter mit vpnc, ich hab um 8 Uni und verzieh mich ins bett
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Dracultepes:
I think i has encoutered the problem :D

Am i right that morkli means the I N S M O D command an not the I N S >T< M O D command.

Because with insmod all turned fine with installing the kernel module and the widget.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] morkli:
Sorry everyone, yes "insmod" not "intsmod". A typo. I've fixed the original post.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] morkli:
I still use pershoot's kernel, but something I discovered recently is that VPNC Widget works with the stock kernel, as long as your Tab is rooted. Tun.ko seems to be part of the stock kernel, so no need to insmod anything.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] JewRican:
sorry to dig up the dead, but i cant get this working.

I have a LTE tab running liquidspeed beta 6. I am trying to use the Cisco anyconnect client (not the same as used in the OP) I was getting the error that the tun module was missing from /data/local/kernel_modules.

I dled the tun.ko file and placed it in /data/local/modules folder and ran su and then insmod /data/local/modules/tun.ko both commands had no response or errors.

I then said, okay it is looking in /data/local/kernel_modules so i will place it there and run the insmod command to point there.

When i run the anyconnect app, it hangs and reboots my tablet.

Anyone get this working? i need some help as I use VPN for work often.

After trying the vpnc app, i found the same result.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] morkli:
Just to confirm, you're running pershoot's kernel with that liquidspeed beta 6 ROM?

There are two Cisco Annyconnet clients in the market. One for rooted devices and one for Samsung devices. Which one did you try?

I downloaded and installed the one for rooted devices. I don't have anything to try to connect it to, but it did not generate any errors the tun module. I put in a dummy IP address and it attempted to connect to that.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] geomun:
vpnc

This is working pretty spectacular for me. I am running task650's PARIS v5 rom. I have successfully connected to my companies VPN and used remote desktop to connect to my work machine. I followed the instructions in post one starting here:

downloaded pershoot's lib-2636.4.tar.gz (Kernel Modules) http://droidbasement.com/db-blog/?p=2357

used Root Explorer from Android Market https://market.android.com/details?i...=search_result to extract tun.ko from lib-2636.4.tar.gz

used Root Explorer copy tun.ko to /data/local/modules (had to create the modules folder and then copy the tun.ko file into the folder)

(this step failed for me but didn't seem to matter)->used Terminal Emulator from Android Market https://market.android.com/details?i...=search_result and issued the following commands:

su

insmod /data/local/modules/tun.ko
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] JewRican:
i did exactly that with no luck.

i am using cisco antconnect because the market thinks samsungs is not compatible lol.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] morkli:
Try putting the stock ROM and stock kernel on your Tab. Then root it and install the Cisco Anyconnect for root from the Market. I think the stock kernel should have the tun.ko included. Hopefully this will work for you.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] JewRican:
Stock does work. I had it before changing roms. I was hoping to take advantage of the speed enhancements of liquid speed.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Dracultepes:
Is there any way to get the advanced routing to work? Vpnc Widget tells me that this feature not work.

My vpvc widget says it is connected und goes "green", but i cant browse any websites or get other internet stuff to work. Maybe the advanced routing feature causes this problems.

I tried Overcome with Pershoots Kernel and actually i has the stock rom on my tab.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] morkli:
From my reading, the lack of the advanced routing feature will only mean that when your WiFi router resets DHCP, you will lose your VPN connection. So, I don't think this should be causing the problem you describe (as the widget would actually be disconnected at that point and go "red").

When you connect to the VPN (the widget says connected and goes "green") all traffic is routed via that VPN, so it depends to websites and other "internet stuff" your VPN has access. For example, some corporate VPNs only allow access to intranets and "internal" applications. Maybe that is what you're seeing.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Dracultepes:
It is an University Network, normally we have full access to the internet. And all normal Laptops around me has internet at the same time.

I Think something with the routing through the vpn goes wrong.

Ill test tomorrow if i can reach the intranet etc.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] iceshrike:
For the record, this still does not work Morkli. I too, can connect, even download the.xml data from the asa head end. When I key in a password and let it finish the connection, it reboots every time.

Had any one done Cisco AnyConnect using a pershoot Kernel?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Conan179:
Yes! I am!

you need ther kernel and the file nams lib-2636.4.tar.gz (exambel from the galaxy tab 10.1v, hc 3.1) form pershots web site. The files are have the (Kernel Modules) intro. i hope i can help.
