[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyberbozzo:
Dear,

Previous year I bought a desire Z in Belgium. It came with a french hardware keyboard (in Belgium and France, we use a AZERTY keyboard).

So the device is equipped with a AZERTY keyboard.

A few weeks ago I bought a completely new motherboard for this phone.

I replaced the board (it is a 'revision' board I think, some Chinese ROM was installed).

I rooted the new phone/motherboard immediately and installed Andromadus Mimicry.

Now I have a problem that the hardware keyboard is 'programmed' in the ROM as a qwerty layout.

So if I type a 'a' on the keyboard, the motherboard interpretes this as a 'q'.

How can I change this?

Anyone have an idea?

I know that there is a folder /system/usr/keychars and also a folder /system/usr/keylayout.

Maybe I need to replace files stored in this folder, if so, what files do I need to replace and where can I find them?

Thx very much 4 assistance!

I have managed to remap my hardware keyboard with the help of this guide There a couple of threads about this sort of problem with Mimicry,That guide works on gingerbread and hopefully it may be of use to you.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyberbozzo:
I have find the thread with the guide, thx.

But it is quietly impossible to change all the keys (including characters, using FN and so on)...

I have in the /system/usr/keychars a fome vision keypad fra.kcm

This is the layout I need to use.

Does anybody have an idea how I can 'activate' this layout?

Hi everybody, it has been 24 beautiful months with my HTC evo 4g and I have upgrade opportunity (sprint) I have flashed around 30 ROMs and I'm still in love with this phone, any ideas of what sprint phone will make a very good upgrade I just don't want to upgrade to a phone that is going to disappoint me since my evo hasn't.

A lot of people tells me that I should wait for the iphone 5, I'm not really sure, thnx in advance
[General Questions and Answers] gagdude:
EVO 4G LTE or Galaxy Nexus or Sprint Galaxy S3

Those are the top phones on Sprint right now,
[General Questions and Answers] SlimBender:
IMO, the Samsung Galaxy S3 is the most beautiful and exciting phone I've ever held. Until I played with that for a few minutes, I was positive my next phone would be an iPhone. My DROID Charge is about a year older than the S3 and I couldn't help but think of what a difference a year makes. That difference was enough to convince me that the Android is much more fun to own. My phone is a hobby, always a progress in motion. For better or worse.

It seems that Samsungdive doesn't work on the i777. Shostock2 is built on an i9100 base, so that's why its in there. It tried for a couple of hours to get it to work but had no luck.

The Playstation Suite has been re-branded as Playstation Mobile. Of course any more news is simply speculation but maybe we will finally see some Playstation mini's or even Gaikai support for our Play.

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Mumups:
Everyone has known this since E3. Sorry :P
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Reapman:
Ya been reading today's news on it.. not a lot that seems.. you know.. new. Frankly I'm getting tired of hearing about PS Mobile and wanting to see Sony actually fully launch the dumb thing.

At this point I'm half expecting the Play to not even be supported :/
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] BrianChase:
I'm with you there; whats the point of creating a hardware standard and then not utilizing the medium for over a year? I feel like its Gaikai or bust at this point which is unfortunate since my wi-fi sucks balls and keeps me away from Onlive as well.

After further research, worryingly, the screenshots for PS Mobile do not show the Xperia Play

You can see them here: http://www.engadget.com/photos/playstation-mobile-from-gamescom-2012/#5208483
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] cotda:
Because PS are developing the SDK in conjunction with developers, if they didnt have a device to test on, whilst testing the SDK it would be a little pointless.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] narflynn619:
It's good someone other than me noticed it, too.

Another abandonment scenario? Oh, god. This won't end. :(

EDIT, but hey, Xperia Arc (S) is there, too. So maybe... neh...
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] sufy1000:
There definitely has to be games for the Xperia PLAY !!!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] swebosdev:
Why would they support the play? Its an unsupported phone.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Rogue Leader:
Because it was the "flagship" phone for this service. It IS a supported phone, they still show it on their website and produce and sell them new. I see no reason they won't support the Play, its not like it will have a hard time playing these mini games and we already know it plays PSOne titles no problem.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] odst0016:
Oh well the phone is nice as a gameboy its had its life if they don't release anything else its use as an emulator device will still keep it useful.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] BrianChase:
Agreed. I see no point in upgrading until someone makes another phone with a kickass gamepad that is strong enough to fully emulate Dreamcast games.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:
Dreamcast....aw.... snap.. that would be sweet. Skies of arcadia, Grandia 2, and Rush 2049 on mutliplyer battle was a ton of fun

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] aros2k:
Lets hope. Pocket Gamer haven't even put the news in the Xperia Play section
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] LordBattleBeard:
None of the articles mention the PLAY, nor do any of the pictures show it. I would be very surprised if this will support the PLAY.

Think about it. No other "playstation certified" device has a physical gamepad or is likely to. It seems very unlikely to me that Sony will require developers spend additional time for just one device with a questionable sales record, and to which a successor is looking increasingly unlikely.

This doesn't bother me too much, seeing as most of the two-bit games showcased look mediocre at best, and I question the likely success of such a programme anyway. See, other than further fragmentation and the proprietary nature of a closed platform, what benefit does a developer have to jump ship to Sony mobile programme and not just focus their efforts on the already established and hugely popular Google Play store?

What does bother me however is the discontinuing of the PSOne classics to coincide with the launch of PS Mobile. Should I be right in assuming us PLAY users won't be invited to the party, discontinuing future updates to something we already have access to is just a further slap in the face...
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Rogue Leader:
The Play will work as the PS Certified SDK allows the game to work with a consistent set of controls, screen or physical (basically any PS cert game will always work on the Play). There is no additional programming needed.

Also there is another announcement with a full press release and the Play is included.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:
Do you have a link?

Edit:

http://community.eu.playstation.com/t5/Announcements-Events/Sony-Computer-Entertainment-to-start-the-full-scale-launch-of/td-p/16798986

Does mention xperia play as a certified device.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] aros2k:
Lol. Top end PCs cannot emulate the Dreamcast.

I would snap up a quad core gamepad phone straight away though.

---------- Post added at 10:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:34 AM ----------

Awesome that it's mentioned! :D

And BattleLord - the Vita has physical controls! Did you forget that?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] poo-tang:
That's not true as my 4 year old dual core Asus has no issues with dreamcast emulation and even GameCube/WII. Just wish drk razel had continued his nulldce (android emu) or at least published source as did not look bad in its alpha stage.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] LordBattleBeard:
That's good news. No other news post/blog mentioned the PLAY. Just sloppy journalism I guess.

Hopefully the games released for it increase in quality over time. Games slated so far don't look very impressive.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tomh1979:
Ok so last week I joined the Gnex family, and loving this phone so far. I did unlock the bootloader, but not sure if I'm going to root it yet, we'll see in due time. Best part is I got the phone by adding a line, crap stuck in another 2 year contract right, well wrong. Soon as I got home I called Sprint to swap numbers between my evo 3D and Gnex, so I could use my number I've had for 9 years on the Gnex, makes since right. Well the best part is that the number I wanted on the Gnex is due for an upgrade in April 2013 still. I thought that would have just stuck to the 3D, but apparently stuck to the number. So I'm hoping if a new nexus device is announced I can at least upgrade the Gnex in April of next year to the next greatest Google offering.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Gigadroid:
I have ported MIUI v4 to the Galaxy Player 4.0.

I can't test it because I sold my Player.

As base I used the first Version of CyanogenMod 9 from Team SuperNova.

Known issues:

Known issues of CM9:

Boots

The basics (display, multitouch, etc.)

wifi

Audio

gps (confirmed)

autorotation

MTP (now you can connect to a computer and transfer files!)

GL (meaning that all UI corruption is fixed, and everything should work normally)

Browsing (finally)

New issues:

I could not test it

Changelog

0.1

Initial release

0.2

Updated to latest Version of CM9

Updated OTA Feature

Added GApps

Download

Kernel

0.1

0.2

I will not be responsible if you brick your device.

Installation

1. Flash MIUI zip a first time, it will automatically reboot.

2. It WILL bootloop; this is okay. Boot into Download mode and flash the CM9 kernel

3. Boot into CWM again and flash the zip a second time (and again, if it bootloops after a reboot)

4. Profit!

If you get stuck in recovery, flash a GB kernel, it will boot into recovery, simply hit "reboot". When it bootloops, boot into download and flash the CM9 kernel.

For GApps in Version 0.1 install gapps.zip

But the other problem is that it's rooted and all of that good junk....... but I can't mount my phone to my computer... Anyone have any ideas? No clue on how to get into CWM without my power button..
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 063_XOBX:
Reboot into recovery from ROM manager.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polobunny:
From ROM Manager you can reboot to recovery at a touch of a button. And depending on which recovery you have you can either use the touchscreen or the softkeys to navigate and select. The search key is the same thing as the power button in recovery.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fr3dw4rd:
Oh............................................................................................... I have I think CWM 5.0.2.0? Or something like that.

I also don't know how to flash back to stock. I can't find any flashables. My USB doesn't work even in CWM.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polobunny:
You can use back key for back, menu key to scroll down, search key for selection, home for scroll up then.

So yeah, from ROM Manager, hit reboot into recovery.

Edit: Are you mounting the SD from within CWM?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fr3dw4rd:
I can't mount my phone to my computer at all.... Even through CWM. I've tried to post on XDA about it and everyone told me a few things to try and none worked.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polobunny:
Transfer all the stuff you need over WiFi then with a program such as Airdroid when you're booted. Then reboot to recovery and do what you need.

You can't really lock back your phone if your USB is broken though...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fr3dw4rd:
I already have all my pictures and stuff backed up on Dropbox since it's what I've been having to use for like months without USB storage. Do you think I'll have to pay for a new phone? I get my upgrade in October. X_X
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polobunny:
No.

I simply believe you're having a hard time connecting it to USB, but they don't die that easily. Sadly, most of the time it's a user error there.

As I said, you can transfer stock 4.0.3 rom onto your phone via a software such as Airdroid. Then you reboot in recovery, wipe everything but the SD card, flash stock 4.0.3, reboot.

You would still need to connect via USB to relock your phone though, ideally.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fr3dw4rd:
I mean storage has been gone on my phone for months lol. I'd say it stopped working like 4-5 months after I got it. I've tried like 5-6 different USB cables. It would stop working, than one day randomly work for like 5 minutes than stop. Like, when I connect it to my computer it charges, but nothing prompts.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polobunny:
That seems like the usb port. Storage and adb are different but they obviously both use the usb port. Nevertheless, return to stock except for locking the bootloader and bring it back and cross your fingers. Many places will fix it without asking much, even of it's unlocked as long as it's stock rom.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fr3dw4rd:
I got a stock image or whatever from this site..

https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images

But, will it work as a flashable?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polobunny:
No.

Those have to be flashed via fastboot/adb.

You can use one of the downloads available at Peter Alfonso. It's stock, odexed rom + root.

http://wonderly.com/bb/CRESPO4G/OEM/pete_crespo4g_ota_IMM76D_odexed.zip

Don't forget you have a Crespo4G, for Sprint, so you cannot use stuff meant for T-Mobile or AT&T. Sadly the 4G community being smaller, the full ROM package is hard to find, only OTA updated being available. This is the closest I could find.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fr3dw4rd:

I am that noob...

I decided to root the the old faithful Incredible 2. So I unlocked the phone with HTCs Dev unlock site (still don't know why I went this route instead of S-OFF, but I did.)

Then I followed the directions here to get root:

w w w addictivetips com/mobile/install-superuser-busybox-rooted-kernel-on-incredible-2-after-s-off/

This worked great, accept at some point I realized that my WiFi stopped working..... .... And of course, I did not pull a backup of the thing, so I have nothing to go back to...

Now when I try to turn my WiFi on, it will say that it is turning on, then display ERROR and not allow me to do anything. If I go into the hardware information of the phone, the WiFi MAC address is blank.

I wanted to go back to the Stock rom, see if that fixed it, but I can't seem to find the stock room online, or even what to look for. Then I tried to load a custom rom on there (cryogenmod 7) which froze at the HTC boot screen (probably due to not having S-OFF I suspect?)

Phone works great other than WiFi. I have a backup of the phone with the WiFi problem that I can role back to.

Can anyone give me any ideas? I did delete some bloatware apps(I know, I'm that noob.), but did not touch the system files.

Is there a stock rom that someone can through my way? If I get S-OFF can I flash custom roms?

Any help would be much appreciated.
