[Defy General] djkail:
Hi everybody. Im having some trouble with CM7 and swype. I have to say that i love swype... Its easy to write in android with this method.

Here it's my problem. I installed swype beta via http://beta.swype.com/ but when im trying to send a sms i cant send a 160 characters sms because when i reach the 95th it changes to 65/2 (that means 2 sms instead of 1...).

I tried too with an older version of swype via recovery... but... i have the same result. I changed the sms options (slip sms, counter, etc) but it doesnt seem to work...

The only way to send a sms with 160 characters its with default keyboard (CM7 RC 1.5).

Can somebody help me? How can i use swype to send sms properly? Please HELP! :confused:
[Defy General] djkail:
Nobody helps me?
[Defy General] TimelesslyPrecise:
Do me a favor... Go to cyanogenmod site, pick out your phone, and download the latest nightly.

Put it on the sd card

Wipe dalvik and battery only, then choose to install the custom nightly zip.

Lmk if you still have the issue with the keyboard after that.

Edit:

If that doesn't do it, clear out your messaging signature and try.
[Defy General] Zephyrot:
That is not the issue.

The issue is you are using special characters on your SMS, anything like Ö ä ß á, etc will force the phone to use Unicode characters and not ASCII.

When sending a message in Unicode the phone needs basically 2x data to be able to send special characters, thats why it goes down to 95/65 characters instead of the full 160 ;)

Solution: do not use special characters and stick to basic letters.
[Defy General] TimelesslyPrecise:
Awesome response!!!

It's always the hidden stuff :)

Thanks for that!!
[Defy General] djkail:
Thanks for your answers... but I did all these things... I tried reinstalling CM7.... nightly and RC 1.5 and no luck... clear cache... erase data from app... NOthing!!! And yes... Im spanish user and i have to use á characters... but... No special characters like that and it happens too... so... (maybe language layer??¿) its not keyboard problem... Its defy cm7 stock app... I "solved" it installing Hacent SMS from market... but i cant use stock CM7 app to send 160 characters sms... I hope Quarkx will solve this!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] T-$hep:
Hi everyone,

I just got the phone from the shipment yesterday and I just swap the sim card that I'm using and it work out of the blue. But today I got a msg from AT&T that I need the correct data plan in order for the 4G to work???

So here's the story, the plan I'm currently using is iPhone unlimited data plan back in 2009 then I get the Captivate, keeping the same data plan and internet still works normally. Now come the galaxy s ii with the so-called 4G speed I noticed I still get the same speed as the Captivate? The only different is on the Captivate it shows H but on the galaxy s ii it shows H+.

Is it supposed to say 4G or something on the indicator? or H+ is the 4G that AT&T is blowing up about?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] rquinn19:
Supposedly there's a new unlimited data plan you should be able to be put on. Look at the threads of people using iPhone 2gs to get unlimited.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Kadin:
They need to migrate your from an iPhone data plan over to the one listed below. This is the unlimited version that I have myself:

SMT PERSONAL $30.00 (stands for Smartphone Personal)

GPRS WAP UNLTD

DOM - RHSDPPB 4 (Notice the 'HSDP' part of this coding which specifies the correct speed)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ngocdao:
HSPA+ data has been out quite some time :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
You do need a new plan, but they will grandfather you into an unlimited 4G plan. Or at least they're supposed to.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] footballrunner800:
is this the right plan? only difference is that it doesn't have a 4 at the end.

Data

GPRS WAP UNLTD DOM - HSDPPB
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Kadin:
Interesting. I can't say for certain but I do know there's only supposed to be 1 HSDPA Unlimited plan for Smartphones. If you go into your account online and go to Manage Features > View All Included Features - do you see SMT Personal $30? If you do, and you saw the code you listed on your actual current data usage screen, I'm pretty sure you're good. Obviously I'd call just to make sure...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cliffgardner:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] F_L_Abs:
To make it simple, call ATT or go into a store and have them update your IMEI so it will also update the correct plan for you.

There's no difference in price, just a different SOC code in the system. So yes, you keep your unlimited data!

If you go into a store, they *should* be able to change your sim free of charge. It doesn't really make anything better, but it doesn't hurt to keep everything updated.

So this is what I found under view included feature in my line, just copy & paste here, can' find the code HSDPPB﻿ or HSDPPB2 like some of you did:

I called ATT today and they switched me to the new plan, it is called "Smartphone Personal". I did some speedtest but results turn out the same as before, still got the same speed as my Captivate thou... avg about 2 Mbps - 3 Mbps for download and 800 kbps - 1.2 Mbps for upload (This is in San Jose area, not sure about the speed in other areas)

So basically if you live in NorCal, you don't need to go through all the hassle to change the current data plan.

Didn't cost me anything, plus we don't even have 4G in the St Louis market yet, so no big deal either way.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mbze430:
yep you need them(AT&T) to switch to the "grandfather" unlimited plan. I had unlimited since 2003/4 when I was using iPhone 3G then I swapped to an HTC (twice) device unlimited then move back to the unlimited iPhone 4... and now I am with the unlimited with a SGS2.

RADIO-3.22.20.17

I had the old radio and SPL, but then I couldn't reboot into recovery. I FINALLY got the radio flashed, and it took my ability to enter recovery away( Amon Ra, don't remember what version).

Now I'm trying the new radio, but every time I try and flash the radio my phone freezes in the middle of the flash. The SPL flashed just fine, but now I can't even boot into recovery and even trying to boot it sticks on the mytouch screen.

My question is, do I have the wrong spl/radio combo, which one I might need, or any ideas on how to get my phone running again.

Thanks.

[Motorola Droid X2] mattfox27:
bump...for some help.
[Motorola Droid X2] mastafunk:
try Amend scripting your example uses edify. ui_print is edify
[Motorola Droid X2] Peperm1nt:
Your not setting permissions. Ill look for the syntax ina second.

I'm going to make a tutorial on making these kind of files when I get the chance(and figure out the permissions).

By chance is the file named updater-script? Just curious.. and does the rest of the script work(ie you see the progress bar)?
[Motorola Droid X2] 0vermind:
First off, you have to mount /system if you're going to copy anything to it.

Second, pick update-script style or updater-script style. The updater-script style is the one I use, and the update-script style is the one that nitro uses (if you want examples). You are using both, so of course it's going to hang.

@Peperm1nt, I appreciate you trying to help, but what exactly are you trying to set permissions for? You don't have a file pointer in that instruction. :p

Try this:

(Make sure you are naming this updater-script.)

mount("ext3", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p12", "/system");
ui_print("Installing ...");
show_progress(0,0);
delete("/system/media/bootanimation.zip");
set_perm(0, 0, 0755, "/system/media/bootanimation.zip");
show_progress(10.000000, 1);
ui_print("Done");
ui_print("Now reboot");
[Motorola Droid X2] Peperm1nt:
lmao, I just noticed that. I edited it after I reread the script and for some reason in my head, I put the link haha. My bad ill edit it since you got it cleared up.

EDIT: I think you forgot to add unmount in your fix 0vermind.

EDIT#2:

update-script is amend scripting and DOES NOT REQUIRE update-binary

updater-script is edify scripting and it REQUIRES update-binary

SO in other words,

amend=

show_progress 0.1 0
delete SYSTEM:media/bootanimation.zip
copy_package SYSTEM: SYSTEM:
set_perm 0 0 0755 SYSTEM:media/bootanimation.zip
show_progress 10.000000 1

edify=

mount("ext3", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p12", "/system");
ui_print("Installing ...");
show_progress(0,0);
delete("/system/media/bootanimation.zip");
copy("/system", "/system");
set_perm(0, 0, 0755, "/system/media/bootanimation.zip");
show_progress(10.000000, 1);
ui_print("Done");
ui_print("Now reboot");

NOTE: ui_print is not a command in amend; only edify! And these will only work if your folders are set up correctly in the update.zip.

bootanimation.zip is in

UPDATE.ZIP(the actual zip file)>system/media/bootanimation.zip

;otherwise, you would need to edit the locations in the script. Someone please correct the copy command if it is incorrect in the edify script. hope this helps.
[Motorola Droid X2] mjdavis871:
OK...so question on permissions. I created a zip file (Amend) that I install after I flash a rom...basically contains my ringtones that installs into system/media/ringtones and installs my titanium backup apk into the system/app folder. I do not set permissions, just copy them over and everything works fine. Now if I were to copy a bootanimation over as well and not set permissions, what would happen? How do we determine what needs permissions to be set? when I look at my ringtones ...the permissions are exactly like the other ringtones.
[Motorola Droid X2] Peperm1nt:
all those files need permissions. what is your update-script syntax?
[Motorola Droid X2] mjdavis871:
show_progress 0.1 0

copy_dir PACKAGE:system SYSTEM:

show_progress 0.1 10

I install my .ogg ringtones and my titanium backup apk using this update-script with no issues
[Motorola Droid X2] Peperm1nt:
that is a correct script to a point i guess.... here use this.

show_progress 0.1 0
delete_recursive SYSTEM:media
copy_dir PACKAGE:system SYSTEM:
set_perm_recursive 0 0 0755 0644 SYSTEM:media
show_progress 1.0 10

this is assuming the zip structure is correct.

.zip>system/media

media contents:

audio(folder)

bootanimation.zip

audio contents:

alarms

notifications

ringtones

and you have the respected files within those folders that you want.

also, if you have any other files in other folders.. system/app etc. you need to fix those as well.
[Motorola Droid X2] mjdavis871:
The million dollar question is why does this still work without setting permissions?
[Motorola Droid X2] Peperm1nt:
.. does your phone show the custom boot animation? tibu redoes everything you set it to. So if permissions were set a certain way, then it would put them back. BUT TiBu has nothing to do with that folder.
[Motorola Droid X2] mjdavis871:
I haven't tried a custom boot animation yet...just ringtones and titanium backup. I'm gonna give it a shot...and let you know.
[Motorola Droid X2] mjdavis871:
OK...so I just added the eclipse bootanimation to my zip, installed it, and the boot animation ran. I didn't set permissions, used the same script as I posted.
[Motorola Droid X2] mattfox27:
is there an amend version of ui_print?
[Motorola Droid X2] Peperm1nt:
no... Amend&Edify tutorial .. here is a good tutorial on how to make these files, with all the syntax you can do.

Setting Permissions here is a good link on how to set permissions.
[Motorola Droid X2] mattfox27:
Do you have to delete the original file first? or can i just remove that line and have it overwrite file?
[Motorola Droid X2] Peperm1nt:
yes.......in my experience its best to delete then rewrite...
[Motorola Droid X2] mjdavis871:
I used my posted script to install the eclipse boot animation and it worked fine...I assume the file was overwritten...but what about permissions? I didn't set those and it worked fine...
[Motorola Droid X2] Peperm1nt:
the file does get overwritten, but its best sometimes, i guess, to make sure it happens. The permissions will NOT be set the same tho.. if it works, fine .. not all rommers set permissions the same. ex for Init.d nitro gives full access to the scripts(ie. anything can read/write/execute) but 0vermind sets to rw-r-r .. either way will work, its just WHO has access to the file...

inother words, if you phone gets "hacked" lmao the hacker can delete that without any special tools.. just simple acess... same with random person on phone...
[Motorola Droid X2] mattfox27:
Do you have to set the permissions at all? Can you just leave that line out and it will use the existing permissions?
[Motorola Droid X2] Peperm1nt:
..... if you didnt have to do it, then why is it a syntax? why is it when you look at all roms, they set permissions? Because you have to!

If it works.. thats fine, but here is what the problem is.. if you dont set permissions then nothing can call for it.. in other words, its just a file sitting in the dump, only able to be manually accessed(u do it). So if you were to set no permissions to framework-res or other files in the system, then it will NOT work properly. I gave you the correct settings for what the permissions should be... if it works another way, thats perfectly fine, but the way google, motorola, verizon, and android wanted the permissions to be set to is what I gave you. Not trying to be a **** but seriously, havent I answered this question like 15 times already in this thread?

SO TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION--- Yes. Set the permissions like I stated, and everything will be fine. If you set them any differently, then please quit commenting that another way works ;)
[Motorola Droid X2] 0vermind:
The reason I use edify is because amend was used in Android 1.5 and has since been phased out. We just have a really old version of recovery that still supports amend. It's better to do it in Edify, plus you can do ui print. :P

Btw, you really don't need to unmount at the end, because the phone is going to reboot anyways. So it doesn't really matter. Just makes you feel better I guess.
[Motorola Droid X2] Peperm1nt:
+1 to this.. Edify is better in my opinion for when you status 6, its easier to find the error(s). Plus I imagine ICS won't support amend.

OFF THE WALL QUESTION... I wonder if we mount a different partition, couldn't we execute a program(you can only do this in edify) to enable usb and transfer data or browse that partition while in the update? or we could do a dump over usb, if you ran a program in the script. I IMAGINE this may be possible to at least look at the partition of choice...

In other words, couldnt we get to the kernel this way and edit it???
