[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laughingT:
okay, existing scripts ain't the problem

here is a suggestion. make sure you do a full nandroid backup beforehand. I haven't tried this myself, but believe it should work.

once you have the keys mapped as desired, go make a copy of the file

aries-keypad.kl that is in system/usr/keylayout folder.

edit, also copy any files in /etc/misc/keylayout

you could copy it to /system/etc/anynameyoulike folder, then add the file to the list in the gapps shell script file in addon.d folder and it will still survive cm rom flashes.

next, create a new shell script or edit an existing script in the etc/ init.d folder that copies your aries-keypad.kl file and other files back to the keylayout folders. you can also add a line to chmod 755 on the files so that it can get used by whatever process needs it.

please let me know if that works for you.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dna59:
I'm not seeing a etc/misc/keylayout folder.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] x0ne215:
/etc/misc/keylayout

etc/ will be in the ROOT of the phone, I believe so anyway (talking about internal sd). If the specific folder can't be found, go into etc, then try to go into misc, so on and so forth. To see a list of directories, use "ls" without the quotes.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laughingT:
my bad! it's data/misc . . .

sorry. about that.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dna59:
There is no keylayout folder in my /data/misc
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laughingT:
thats okay. ignore that file and deal with the other as suggested.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dna59:
OK I understood everything up to the creating a shell script that copies the time back to the key layouts folder and the chmod part.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laughingT:
we

okay, so you don't know how to script and we are talking about an assumption on my part is that the .kl file is 1) modified by whatever tweak you are using and 2) that it is getting overwritten on boot.

Let's take another tack. What do the contents of aries-keypad.kl show after your tweak is active?

Here's the contents of the CM10.1 file as it is, without tweaks:

key 115 VOLUME_UP WAKE

key 114 VOLUME_DOWN WAKE

key 116 POWER WAKE

key 139 MENU VIRTUAL

key 102 HOME VIRTUAL

key 158 BACK VIRTUAL

key 217 SEARCH VIRTUAL

when your tweak is active, is your aries-keypad.kl different?

if not, then you may be able directly edit the kl file, save it, and see if it stays after reboot.

remember, complete nandroid backup first.

edit: try using xplorer, available in google play. it has a built in text editor, ability to check and change permissions, and it will tell you if your edit fails to write to the file.

also, I've got my phone set to volume rocker wake, so my kl file isn't quite stock.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dna59:
The following is exactly what I did....

Ive been using es file explorer with root access given. I edit the file as text using the built in text editor. These are the scenarios I have tried:

1. Changed the volume up wake to power wake w/ volume wake feature on

2. Same as above w/ volume wake feature off

3. Changed volume up wake to power wake and delete the original power wake completely w/ volume wake feature on

4. Same as above w/ volume wake feature off

5. All of the above scenarios but without the "wake" part on power

In all these cases the modified file was saved and upon reboot they are still in the same modified state. I have even tried deleting the backups the system makes thinking maybe the system is using the backup instead of the modified file.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laughingT:
what are the permissions on the file after you save it?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dna59:
User is RW... group and other had nothing checked. Tried changing it to RW-R-R both with and without volume rocker wake checked and still no change after rebooting it
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laughingT:
Still no change, meaning the file is overwritten, or still no change in response?

also, have you tried deleting the line for key116 all together?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dna59:
No change in response. After reboot the file is still edited as I did before reboot. Yes these last couple experiments have been with nothing in line 116
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] x0ne215:
Are you positive you chmod'ed the correct permissions? I don't see why it wouldn't work unless the file had incorrect permissions and the phone wasn't able to access it. Maybe have someone upload one of their unmodified files and try swapping it?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dna59:
Maybe I should just do a fresh install of a different version ROM and see.

Hello XDA Community

This is a noobish question I know but does flashing a Kernel onto the wrong device i/e Entropy512’s Daily Driver being installed on a international SGP device causes causes the back and home buttons to be disabled because they are "touch buttons" and not "physical buttons"? The same goes for Roms too when flashing them on wrong version devices. Simply put what causes the disabling of Back and Home buttons when flashing or installing Kernels or Roms? I'd truly appreciate feedback in advance.:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] obscuresword:
Simply Never ever flash a rom/kernel not meant for the device it's stated for. It can cause all sorts of problems including the ones you listed, and also could hard brick your device to the point that it can't be recovered. The most logical reason is that the roms/kernels are purpose built for their respective device and have many things that are incompatible for example how they are coded and etc

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hyriu33:
Hello everyone!

I'm an average avid photographer that owns a kindle fire 1st gen. Its been collecting some dust for quite sometime but now that I have been taking more and more pictures with my Galaxy made me wonder if I could add some photo editing tools that I could use quickly on the fly. So I discovered Photoshop Touch ! It seems to fit my needs quite nicely but when I sideloaded it to my kindle it just kept crashing.

Now that I know it doesnt function properly on the KF1st gen because of the OS that came in with the kindle made me want to try to root and flash a diferent rom on it to see if I can use photoshop on it.

So my goals are the following for this device:

1. Photo Editing

2. Light Reading

3. Web Surfing

4. Listening to music

What would be the most effective way to achieve this ?

What would be the best rom for this tasks in that particular order?

Is there a way I can dual boot the stock rom and the custom rom so I can use it for 2,3,4 and boot the custom one for just photo editing ?

Thanks in advance for reading my post and for any help,tips or insights on how to achieve this.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hyriu33:
So I was looking at that link that you posted and is seems pretty straight forward but I dont know witch one of the Dualboot roms is Jellybean can you recommend me one ?

thanks
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
Android 4.1.x and later & CM10 and later are all Jellybean. Your best bet is to install a normal jellybean ROM and use Gr8 alt-ROM (MoDaCo) for the alternate boot.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hyriu33:
I went with hellfire it seem to be a good choice. Photoshop works GREAT!!! but for some reason I cant get the play store to load up for me.

Am i missing something ?

Thanks
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrooklynNY:
Did you flash the ROM zip and then gapps zip in twrp? If you did, you might try a clean install again.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hyriu33:
What is gapps zip ? I didnt see nothing like that mentioned on the rom description.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hyriu33:
Thank you all!!!

Now my Kindle feels much more better and I got photoshop in it !!!

You guys rock!
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrooklynNY:
I guess u figured it out in the end. BTW, did u dual boot? (I did)
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hyriu33:
Yeah I didnt notice there was an app right there on the tablet.

I didnt dual boot because I discovered that the Hellfire was good enough and I was able to achieve everything and it really flies. I regret not doing it sooner.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] 0x4721:
I've recently got Xperia J and flashed it with FXP 206 and then moved to FXP 207.

I love it, but i've encountered some bugs that are said to be "officially fixed" or there are no mentions abut them at all.

1. In Settings->More...->Mobile Networks->Network Operators should be list of available network operators. Unfortunately there are some lines, but each of them is labeled as "Unknown". On lock screen, operator name is displayed correctly.

2. While Charging, notification led displays battery state correctly (red while low, yellow, and green when full), but any notification (missed call, application notification, low battery) makes LED pulse pink/violet (blue+red, red slightly shorter, you can observe color go blue at the end of each pulse). You cannot modify that behavior in display settings (pulse length nor color can be successfully set).

3. Offline charging, "Fixed since FXP 204", does not work.

4. Camera (Gallery) Force Closes after recording a video. Starts working after deleting video (problem with creating thumbnail for camera? Camera shows thumbnail of previous picture just before FC)- Known problem. Is there any fix? Camera MX crashes right after clicking "camera" icon.

5. Phone eats through battery really fast. 1,5 day with phone lying on my desk, 2 SMS messages received, no WiFi, 2G mobile network with high signal level. Battery stats show surfaceflinger (Android System) to consume 40% of energy.

6. Music stutters. I know, it is known problem, but maybe someone has some solution. (I have used ROM provided by adfad666, music was crystal clear, but lock screen was lagging - sometimes for more than 30 seconds - and receiving phonecall made the interface freeze, ringtone to stutter, and after that device rebooted. Every time i tried).

7. Less serious bug: sometimes after turning GPS on and starting some app which uses it (any app, ranging from Sygic Navigator to Google Maps or GPS Essentials), the GPS icon does not show up, and only network location is used. After reboot everything works fine (same place, so not a problem with GPS signal level).

Any helpful hints about problems mentioned here?

Sorry for you, but that is Verizon. For that reason, I travel also to Europe, I use only phones which can do all GSM. You may call Verizon that they make a change, but not likely.
[General Questions and Answers] iLiberate:
I know it shouldn't bother me, but it does. Samsung developing Tizen, Amazon forking the hell out of Android (I don't even really mind Amazon forking the hell out of Android, I just wish they had done a better job.), LG purchasing WebOS etc.

I support these companies with my dollars because they support Android. I also understand that that everyone needs to diversify their portfolios and to maximize their profits. I have a degree in economics and am an anarcho capitalist by nature. So why does this bother me at all (it definitely shouldn't)?

I have purchased a handful of Samsung devices and have invested heavily in the Google Play Store and I have this suspicion that one day, Samsung will release the newest Galaxy phone and at the top layer it'll look EXACTLY like Android, but at it's core it'll be a Tizen device with its own app market.

Perhaps that is a little far fetched, but in that scenario; they are still able to sell millions of devices because the average consumer doesn't know the difference between Android and Galaxy and, although they will lose customers, they could potentially grow their Tizen consumer-base overnight and everyone in the Android community loses.

Now, that isn't to say that I believe new OSs are a loss for Android. I think that any OS that brings something different to the table is great for everyone. But making an Android copycat OS, and creating a large rift within the community benefits no one but Samsung(as far as I can see).

But perhaps they all need an Ace of up their sleeves against Google to ensure fair treatment?

What do you guys think? I, for one, have vowed to only purchase Google devices for the foreseeable future because buying a Samsung or HTC device and feeling an overwhelming need to install CM 10.1 makes me feel as though I should be investing in a company that is giving me the software closest to CM 10.1.

That's my rant. Opinions?
