[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thelamacmdr:
With the latest release of cyanogens update I started using the global search which I really love but unfortunately htc didn't give us a search button like the mytouch 3g has, I also find that I don't use the camera button at all so is it possible to remap the camera button to function as a quick launch for the global search like we can remap the end key?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geniusdog254:
I was wondering the same thing.

I have been looking at the filesystem & the /system/usr folder contains the folders "keylayout" and "keychars".

Inside the keylayout folder are several .kl (presumably .kl stands for key layout) files. If you edit them you should be able to change what ANY key on the device does, in theory anyway.

The qwerty.kl & trout-keypad.kl files appear to be the same unless I am missing something. They seem to be the layout files for normal US Dream devices. There is also trout-qwertz.kl which seems to be for the French QWERTZ key layout. I don't know how the trout-keypad-v2.kl & the trout-keypad-v3.kl are different from the traditional trout-keypad files, however you can look at that yourself.

I am looking at the trout-keypad.kl file for my ADP1 and am kinda struggling with a few of the keys. Obviously all I believe you have to do is change the line:

"key 212 CAMERA" to "key 212 SEARCH"

The SEARCH label is typically mapped to key 127.

However, I am at a loss as to what key 211 could possibly be, it is labeled as FOCUS, could it be when you press the camera key halfway down to focus in the camera app & key 212 be fully pressed?

I will do a little exploring & I will post back with my test results when I push the file to /system/usr/keylayout on my device later. Since they are just files I don't believe that you need to resign an update that contains them, you should be able to just push them to the device.

If it works I will upload the modded file here.

EDIT 1: You should also be able to add the tag WAKE in the next column over (where the other WAKE or WAKE_DROPPED tags are) if you want that key to wake the device.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thelamacmdr:
Yeah I saw those files but can't do anything with them atm since I'm out and about but I assumed that they pertained to the slideout keyboard only so Ill look at them when I'm home.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geniusdog254:
They appear to be for ALL keys on the device, there are also some for BT headsets.

I updated all of the files with the camera & focus keys mapped to search, however it accomplished nothing. It still launches camera. I am running the JACxROM, but I am gunna try it with my old CM 3.6.8.1 build (which I preferred over JACxROM anyway). I'll post back later.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistol4413:
I was wondering if u edited the zip file then flashed it. Maybe that might help. I was thinking of doing something like this for myself but wasnt sure where to start
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geniusdog254:
All I did as of yet was change the files, push them, and reboot. I am in the process of making an update and flashing it. Also, it didn't work with the first method on the CM build. The update I am signing will be based on the CM build.

One thing I also don't understand, is the *.kcm.bin files in the keychars folder. When I open them in a hex editor I cant understand them, are they encrypted, do they need unpacked, am I just an idiot??

EDIT: I'm an idiot. Just pushing the files doesn't work. For whatever the odd reason, it seems you have to package them in an update.zip file & sign them. It works great now. You can either push the button halfway down (FOCUS) and it will pop up, or push it all the way down (CAMERA) and it will pop up.

I can't upload the whole CM update (don't have the bandwith) but I will try to make an update.zip that contains just the new files (kinda like a theme update.zip file) and upload it.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geniusdog254:
Ok. I can't figure out how to make a plain update.zip with the files needed.

I put them in an update.zip file containing two directory trees:

META-INF/com/google/android/ which contains update-script (my custom one for this)

and

system/usr/ which contains all of the .kl files that needed modified.

My update-script file is as follows:

copy_dir PACKAGE:system SYSTEM:

What am I doing wrong? Whenever I try to flash the update I get an error that says "Syntax error in update script". I'm using the same convention used in theme update-script files. What should I do?

PS: The update is being signed, I'm not that stupid ;)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistol4413:
Cool I can't wait for this. If all goes well I can remove the search widget to free up space and memory. U should drop this by cyanogen so he can include it in the next update. I'm sure this would go great with the global search once the bugs r worked out of it.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geniusdog254:
Well since I can't figure out the stand-alone update.zip here are the plain files so that you can just add them to /system/usr in your update.zip of choice and re-sign it. I have PMd Cyanogen about this and will see what he says.

Glad I could help guys!

EDIT: Words of caution. I am not responsible if you screw up with this. Also, if you just press the camera button it will bring up the search box, but if you hold the camera button it brings up Voice SEARCH (not voice dial)

EDIT 2: I've added two new versions. The "keyboard_mod_cam-norm_focus-search.zip" file makes it so if you press camera completely down then it still opens camera, but if you just press it halfway down (to focus mode) it brings up search. Holding it at halfway still brings up voice search *see edit three*.

The "keyboard_mod_cam-search_focus-norm.zip" file makes it the opposite. Pressing all the way down opens search, pressing halfway down still focuses if you are in the camera app. Holding it all the way down still brings up voice search *see edit three*.

And of course the original file stays the same. Either position brings up search and holding still brings up voice search *see edit three* from any position.

EDIT 3: OK, it seems that voice search is only activated on a long press on CM 3.6.8.1! If you are using the latest (CM 3.9.11.2) it does NOT activate voice search anymore.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thelamacmdr:
Can't you just use the original update and replace what you need in there?

Ok whoa you work fast but thanks for it! Hopefully cyanogen considers adding a setting for it, thanks so much!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geniusdog254:
Yea thats exactly what I had to do to make it work, just replace the files in the original update and re-sign it then flash it. You can use any of the versions I posted to replace the files and it will work for you too.

And no problem. I haven't gotten a reply from Cyan yet but I did PM him.

Thanks for the compliment btw :D lol.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thelamacmdr:
Ha ha well great job! Can't wait to get home and flash with this in it =D.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geniusdog254:
Hmm. It worked for you by pushing? I couldnt make it work that way, I had to flash a custom update that I put the files in. Did you do anything extra? Change permissions? Did you reboot? Check if it still works after a reboot, because mine didnt.

Using the JacHero 2.1 which has camera key remapped to search. Don't seem to be able to reassign to camera - what's the keycode for the G1's camera button? Thought it was 211 (focus) 212 (take piccy).

Oh I should probably say hi - first post lol. I'm a bit n00bish but I have successfully reflashed this G1 5 or 6 times with different roms and haven't asked loads of questions without reading instructions - but can't figure this camera issue out. Cheers :)

Sorry about this post! All info was supplied earlier in thread! Mustve been a long day at work that day!
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] tmcdoniel:
I will be visiting China in the near future. I will use Skype or Gizmo5 while in the hotel from my PC to callback to the U.S.

But I am taking my HTC Dash (GPRS, EDGE, no 3G) with me and still wanted to be able to receive Outlook email while out and about, browse Internet using mini-Opera, maybe use Gmaps a little bit. I went to T-Mobile's website to see how much data usage was when roaming in China. It's $15 per MB which seems really steep. (Also, 1MB??? How much can you really do with only 1MB?)

So instead I'm looking to purchase a prepaid SIM. I will be visiting Beijing, Changsha, Guangzhou, and spend 1 night in Hong Kong. If anyone has any experience on what would be the best plan to get, please let me know.

Also, about how many MB's do you think I'd need for a 2 week stay? Like I said, I'll be checking my email, using mini-opera to browse for news & such, some gmaps usage. I'll use WIFI whenever there's something open I can connect to. (Is it quite easy finding open WIFI spots in those three cities or do you think they'll be scarce?)

Also, if I use the java version of Gmail to check my mail, instead of downloading it to Outlook, is that a better way to conserve on data? Will it make much of a difference?

Thank you,

Tim

As you could have read in the board rules, we expect some degree of commitment and self-investigation.

We are not a helpdesk where you can simply throw out questions, we expect your first attempt to investigate it yourself.

To begin with: it is helpful to have a clear topic title.

It is also useful to clarify what the problem is, what you've already tried to fix the problem, where you searched, what you have found and why it did not work.

This thread is now locked, since the above is missing. You may open a new thread, but please first read the board rules carefully.

Furthermore, you absolutely don't have to be an expert on PPCs in order to post here, it's just that we like you to think for yourself.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Smoguk:
I have a bit of curios problem with my TD2. During a phone call i get a sound distortion / vibration from the earpiece. It makes no difference if i change the volume level. Playing music or using the speaker phone does not cause the problem. So i'm not sure if it's a software or hardware problem? Has anyone else found this problem? or have any clues for me.

Thanks in advance

Smog
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] l0wey:
It isn't related to the "vibrate on connect" feature is it?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Smoguk:
No i have that disabled. It sounds like when a music speaker has a damaged cone and vibrates / distorts or there is too much bass?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Mad Majk:
The distortion in my earpice goes away at 80% volume. Is very annoying. It distortes on bass (low frequency) very much on 100% volume. The D2 speaker is very crappy. I wonder if there is a solution to this (software bass reduction of the incoming calls).
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Smoguk:
I agree the earpiece is utterly crap, the distortion goes at 50% on my TD2! Have spent sometime looking if there is anysoftware solution but to no avail!! I'm debating weather to return it under waranty as a faulty phone and see where i get.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] battax:
any solves on this issue?

Mine too have the same problem, but i was told by others owners that this situation is not normal.

They say it´s a faulty device.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Smoguk:
Result!! My touch screen went faulty so had to send the phone back in for warranty repair. I mentioned that the ear piece may also be faulty and requested them to take a look. Phone returned with new screen, new housing & i must assume a new ear piece. All distortion has disappeared even at 100% volume!!! :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Pete_S:
Maybe it's not the thread to mention it in (apologies to all those with problems) but when it works properly the TD2 has the best sounding earpiece of any phone I've had, including two other HTC ones. It actually has bass!

The distortion described sounds like the moving part is partially rubbing against the fixed part. In a proper speaker this can be caused by dirt or dust trapped between magnet and coil, or distortion of the coil through overload or temperature changes. I would send the phone for service 'cos it sadly won't get better of its own accord.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] 2daysoft:
Hello everybody,

the new release of yrgo is here.

Presentation video or yrgo tutorials

More screenshots

So what's new:

New contacts editor - you can add or edit contacts (deleting is not implemented yet). Contact can be added by context menu under the unknown phone number in the call list or the context menu under the "phone number" item i the contacts. Editing is enabled thru the contact details.

New Today plugin that allow to run yrgo like on the today plugin. It is not exactly this - the Today plugin checks whether it is shown and then it automatically activates yrgo. In this case, if you press the "Red HW button", it will force you to the Today screen where rgo today plugin activates yrgo. Lot of users was looking for similar behavior. This option is disabled by default and you have to enable it manually - go to the "Settings->Today->Items" and there disable all today plugins and enable just yrgo plugin. That's it.

New gadgets:

Contact - allow to create an unassigned icon on the desktop where the contact can be chosen later (in non design mode) by clicking on the icon. The contact can be then changed any time by the context menu under the contact.

Write SMS - the same behavior as the Contact gadget

Application - the same

Settings item - the same

So expected "simple upcomming appointments" gadget - is on the bottom of the gadgets list

Simple tasks - also on the botto of the gadgets list

New system of searching long lists (introduced in the last beta) was improved so it should much better now.

The bluetooth Gadget now switches between On and Off only... the Discavoarble is accessible thru the context menu.

"Snad to grid on/off" option for the design mode.

In the settings the contacts search behavior can be changed: yrgo may search in all information about the contact (address, email, etc.) or just in the name (to improve the performance).

long tap on "0" in the contacts allows to write "+"

In the settings the option of disabling "Message was sent msg box."

Some changes in the SMS so I should be shown to you correctly (but I haven't tested it)

I did some change in alarm gadget so it shouldn't show you incorrect data (you have to test it :-) )

Maybe also something else :-)

I hope that's all.

Enjoy it!

New release can be found here: http://2daysoft.com/yrgo/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=283

[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] daveid:
It is my understanding that with a LCD screen that is back-light (such as your phone, and any LCD screen that I am aware of) black is harder on the battery because it has to block the most light from passing through the film. Therefore, you are having the opposite effect you desire, white would be the most efficient (or some other bright color) as it has to use less energy to darken the screen and can allow more of the back light to shine through. But I don't know everything... ;)
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] mohsinkhan47:
i see...... i will create an all white theme for you guys than
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] daveid:
But black looks better! My phone is decked out in black and blue, white would be god-awful to look at (even the stock grey is obnoxious). So, I say, continue on your quest for a black based theme, but instead of calling it energy efficient, just call it black. ;)
