[HELP] Home button not working on MIUI life 2.4.20 v4 (ST17i)

Hi!

Today I've flashed MIUI life 2.4.20 v4 on my Xperia Active (ST17i) but home button is not working.

Tried reflashing, clearing cache & data, but there's some problem with the Android Configuration Assistant because it locks home button.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] cyberjerry47:
SOLUTION: (almost noob level)

1. Install a Root Explorer/Browser with which you can view and edit system files.

2. Navigate to:

system>usr>keylayout, and look for a file named as " cyttsp_key.kl "

3. Open it with a root text editor

(you need an editor with root permission for editing system files, mostly they come equipped along with the root browser)

4. Here you will find the list Capacitive touch buttons along with their functions listed

eg: for xperia active with 3 Capacitive touch buttons Back, Home, Menu it is something like this:

key 102 HOME VIRTUAL

key 139 MENU VIRTUAL

key 158 BACK VIRTUAL

5. So if your Home button is not working, you will notice the first line(key 102 HOME VIRTUAL) in missing. (102 is the button code, HOME is the function, & VIRTUAL I guess represents its a Touch Button)

6. Just add the line save the file & Restart your device, this should probably fix your problem.

Note:

1. The number the in each line after the "key" is a unique code for each button of your device, just google it to find the code & function of a particular button

2. If 1 of your hardware buttons are not working then repeat the same process with the file " pm8058-keypad.kl " in the same directory(system>usr>keylayout)

3. Make a backup of the file before you edit it.

4. You can disable a button by adding a "#" in front of the line that mentions its name/code.

eg: Change "key 139 MENU VIRTUAL" to "#key 139 MENU VIRTUAL"

Hi ALL

I have upgraded to Sin's merged version 2. Problem now the latest version MMSComposerv2.0.0.20 & VideoMMS does not want to work when in VideoMMS mode. It comes up with an error saying "Failed to invoke MMS Composer please try again or make sure MMS Composer is already installed. "

I have reloded reflushed, downloaded MMS & Video Composer from other postings, all to no avail.

I have now decided to revert back to an earlier version of MMS_Composer_1.6.0.8 . This version does not integrate with outlook but at least it works.

My XDAII is PH10B Model ROM version 2.06.00WWE Radio 1.18.00 Protocol ver 1337.38 ExtRom version Sin.Merged.v2.0.

Anyone experienced the same or does anyone now how to fix the problem?

THIS IS ONE QUICK/SIMPLE ERROR FREE ROM FLASHING PROCEDURE

This should eliminate a few posts saying, stuck in download mode, stuck at logo. just vibrates and them MANY other issues that somehow, everyone seems to find.

Here is my quick rom flashing process I use ALWAYS (yes always)

THINGS YOU NEED ON extSDCARD

1. Extra kernels (2 or 3 you know works for your device)

2. Optional: 2 recoveries that can be flashed (I use CWM & TWRP)

3. Optional: apps.zip (a zip created from Titantium BU, containing Root Explorer, TU Backup, Quickpic, ES File Explorer and Terminal Emulator)

Flashing the rom: TOUCHWIZ/AOSP ROMS

1. Backup current rom (to the extsdcard)

2. Complete wipe, (I do complete, some people do not) Complete = No Issues [FACTORY RESET + CLEAR CACHE + CLEAR DALVIK CACHE + CLEAR DATA]

3. Flash the rom

4. Flash the kernel (your device kernel) (I know some roms have their own kernel) this is where your problems start.

AGAIN: FLASH YOUR KERNEL, you KNOW it works. 1 more time FLASH YOUR KERNEL. (you can experiment with other kernels after you boot)

AOSP ROMS - require you to flash gapps before you boot. [This is not required for TouchWiz roms]

5. Boot the rom.

FINISHED!!!! SUCCESS!!!

Total time to flash a rom:

7-10min

Errors - NONE

This goes for every rom in my guide.

TIPS:

This flash procedure is for Touchwiz Roms, if you are flashing AOSP roms, you must flash the gapps package associated with the rom you are flashing.

**** SGH-I337M Users: Often requires flashing a different kernel than the one included in most ATT ROMS. Any GT-i9505 kernel will work and Adam kernel and Faux kernel are both confirmed working for us Canadian users.

Note: Flash KERNEL directly after ROM then reboot device.

[Special thanks to blyndfyre for this helpful tip].

The extra recovery I flash if a rom does not like the recovery I am using.

Yes, you can flash recoveries back and forth.

Apps.zip I flash after the rom is up & running. This I use to get the rom setup (like root explorer and others needed)

HELPFUL LINKS: In post #2

I am in no way responsible for anything that may do damage to any device - Use these tips at your own risk - period!

Question: How do you get an apps.zip with TiBa? I would love to do this and save having to download each app from the Play store each time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] AxAtAx:
Hit the menu button when in TiBa, it will bring up an option to create a zip, it rocks, I use it for multiple things, you can name it anything you want, flashes perfect every time. When I want to setup a rom, I have to use those apps, like the root explorer. I hate doing a complete restore or picking thru it to get what I need, so I flash the zip with the only things I need.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] AxAtAx:

Wow, you guys didn't know TiBU could do this?

apps.zip (a zip created from Titantium BU, containing Root Explorer, TU Backup, Quickpic, ES File Explorer and Terminal Emulator)

This is helpful when you get the rom fully booted, and you have to do some changing of things like pushing apps to the system/apps dir, all the zip is a combination of tools I think are needed to get the rom up to speed, I have been using this since the G3 days, speeds up my testing of the roms for my guide also.

Glad I could share the info for everyone.

Hope it helps.

Thanks to all.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] AxAtAx:
Just had 3 PM from people with issues doing this flash procedure. I fixed them, but here is my issue.

HOW HARD CAN THIS BE!!!!!

This is the easiest steps EVER.

DO IT STEP 1, STEP 2 AND SO ON.

You need it more simple:

BACKUP

COMPLETE WIPE

FLASH ROM

BEFORE BOOT FLASH CORRECT KERNEL

BOOT ROM

5 steps....EASY EASY EASY EASY EASY AND EVEN EASY!

And last but not least - EASY

Solution 2:

If you can not do this, you need to sell your phone to me, and go out and buy a flip phone, or a iPuke. those are the easiest fool proof phones for people who can not read or follow simple instructions.

I get group text from iPhone users. When I reply to the text it only goes to the person who initiates the text. How do I make it so that when I reply it goes to everyone in the text?

Also if I send a group message a D if someone replies to it (from an android user) the reply comes to my directly and not in the group text message thread.

I've tried handcent and gosms and both did not work.

Can anyone help?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] islandjat:
Go SMS works fine. I also have a stock SMS app that allows for iPhone compatibility if you don't want any other app besides stock. Both work fine, but you have to enable group messaging in go SMS.

Flash this in twrp and go into your settings afterwords to make sure group messaging is enabled for your stock messaging.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] islandjat:
Make sure your data is on as well, even if you're connected to WiFi. That could be your problem as group messaging is through MMS which requires data to be on.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DarkManX4lf:
Yeah data is definitely on and Ian was not connected to wifi. I tried group messaging between android devices today with gosms and it was not working.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] islandjat:
I think this is something android should figure out as a standard..being able to group message like on the iPhone without extra configuration.

Hello!

I was strict at not making a new thread since there are a lot of discussions going on already, but the more I went through them, the more I was confused. I'm a complete newbie at rooting and want to root HTC One V GSM (Primo U).

I followed this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1598964 and got introduced to all the terminologies about rooting. But as I reached the end of the thread, people discussed that this method is old, and there was some issue with CWM or TWRP. Should I stick to the same method or is there any new and easy method available?

The reason why I'm rooting my phone is, it has became very slow, it lags and takes minutes to do simple tasks. By rooting, I was planning to install custom ROM, remove bloatware, move apps to SD card and overclock (slightly) to increase the performance.

Also, after going through this forum, I encountered that a lot of custom ROMs are discontinued for this device. Can you suggest me the best custom ROM which will serve the best for the above requirements. Or can I achieve all this on stock ROM itself?

Thank You!
[HTC One V] blade22:
Even I am a newbie in Android rooting...and you got the right thread (sticky) for rooting.

don't worry I followed the same thread and successfully rooted my device (HTC One V PromU) :cool:

Thanks for your quick reply. So according to that thread, first, I'll need to unlock the bootloader, then install TWRP instead of CWM, right? then take the backup using Nandroid and then run Superboot to root it. Now that being done, my phone will be still on the stock ROM, right? then how should I install myONEv RC9.5 FX+ ROM? (Sorry noobish question).

Also, will myONEv RC9.5 FX+ will help to make my phone fast?
[HTC One V] blade22:
Let me tell u that initially I was afraid/confused regarding Android unlocking/rooting process..but after following xda thread found it too easy to follow :D and I'm 100% sure u will feel the same after completing the whole rooting process.

yes, if u have gone through unlocking/rooting threads(many r there in xda) for HTC One V u will find the unlocking bootloader is the topmost & 1st step in rooting.

so do in this order:

1.unlock bootloader

2.then rooting process (as given in that thread)

3.then flashing custom recovery (TWRP in this case)

4.nandroid backup

5.enjoy!!!!

and after rooting phone will be on stock ROM only (u can remove bloatwares now) :laugh:

custom rom flashing is clearly explained by devs in their threads :cowboy:
