Keyboard data missing?

Hmm. Here's an interesting observation. The soft keyboard seems to be missing the default word list. There's no autocorrect, because the only words it recognizes are the names it added from my contact list. For example, the first time I tried to type the word "it", the keyboard autocorrected it to the nearest match it found: "Michael".

It's still usable, but moderately annoying. And probably easily fixable. Just... weird.

Edit: also, I'd like to add that every time I boot the phone, I get a keyboard force close message. I just click wait, and never have problems. But, there seems to be something going on with the keyboard.
[G1 Android Development] crypysmoker:
Im also missing that and Spare parts, Terminal emulator and quite a few others.Booted in less then 3 min though and is running.
[G1 Android Development] alwaysbelieve1:
Why even use the Android keypad, which in my opinion sucks, and instead always use the HTC one which is similar to the iPhone's and works very, very well? Just curious why more people don't use that and are still using the Android one.
[G1 Android Development] carnegie0107:
I much prefer the Android keyboard to the HTC one, as do several people--what, from my purely anecdotal experience, seems to be the majority of people. The main reason I don't like the HTC Touch Input is that it lags intolerably, on any rom. When I used a Hero rom for a while, the thing I missed most was the soft keyboard that didn't suck. I tried Better Keyboard, but it's just not quite right. And too big.

I just wanted to know if anyone else was having the same problem with autotext.
[G1 Android Development] esmith972:
Nope, you definately aren't the only one. I hate that keyboard with a passion.
[G1 Android Development] AbsoluteDesignz:
yea the HTC keyboard lags ridiculously...seems in this version the graphics for the android keyboard have been fixed..I think I'mma start using that from now on, but I'm so accustomed to the HTC keyboard now.
[G1 Android Development] carnegie0107:
Okay, if we're both having the same problem, let's fix it. @someone smarter than me: what file(s) contains the word list for the android keyboard? Let's just push 'em from another ROM, see if that works. I'm pretty sure it was working fine on an earlier version of this ROM. (Not the custom word list, the default. Probably in /system or /data somewhere?)
[G1 Android Development] mrodlies:
hey, can some one post a mirror?
[G1 Android Development] alwaysbelieve1:
The autocorrect DOES NOT work in this version and I get FCs for the Android Keyboard. I simply use the HTC keypad which is much nicer and accurate anyway. I don't have any lag problems and never really have.

What bothers me most about the standard Android keypad is the lack of a quick way to hit numbers and symbols like the HTC one has. I'm VERY fast with the HTC keypad and with the Android it's quite clunky and the autocorrect is not that good when it is working.
[G1 Android Development] alwaysbelieve1:
1. I have one quick question about what the difference is between Manup's & Eugene's AOSP v2.1? Or is it pretty close to the same?

2. Also on either of those ROMs do we still need Swap and SD partitions or no on the MT3G? If so what should the settings be? Thx!
[G1 Android Development] ttownboy84:
does any of the roms have adobe flash player on it
[G1 Android Development] Pepe101:
once again great work......i like this different lockscreen.......keep up the great work man

[G1 Android Development] fridlack:
Same questions here!
[G1 Android Development] carnegie0107:
1. Manup's has a few added things, like car dock, but in my experience, wasn't as smooth as Eugene's. Other than that, they are pretty indistinguishable from each other, apart from having different default themes. (Manup's looks like stock Android, whereas Eugene's looks like the Droid)

2. No. You don't NEED swap, but yes, you probably want it. And I don't think you need an ext partition; this ROM doesn't seem to touch it now, since A2SD is broken. But seriously, just format your sd for it anyway. Trust me. You can do it automatically, on your phone, with no need for knowledge of terminal commands, with Amon_Ra's latest recovery (in my sig). Settings are your preference, but I think the defaults on this ROM are pretty darn good.
[G1 Android Development] alwaysbelieve1:
Good deal... so when formating an sd we can do it all from the phone? I have had to take it out and use my computer to do it, which takes a while, because recovery always gave me an error and said to use ADB. Not sure why, but I don't use ADB. After formating with the computer it then seemed to work and I've always been able to then partition using the phone. I put 128 swap and 256 partition. Is that fine? If not what is recommended for best results?

I'm not sure how to use the A2SD feature. Is that automatic or something I need to manually do? Thanks!
[G1 Android Development] carnegie0107:
A little searching would give you all these answers. That said, you can partition on your phone, but you're better off using it to partition it to a single vfat partition first, then choose the option to part vfat/ext2/swap. 128 swap is definitely plenty (probably overkill on this ROM), and 256 should be fine, though on my Cyanogen ROM I had more apps installed than that... (Understand, 256Mb worth of apps is a crapton of apps!) So you should be fine how you are. Everything is automatic on A2SD. Just use your phone, install lots of apps, like you normally would, and after a long time... nothing happens. You don't run out of room. Your phone never says "Installation failed: insufficient storage". You just install two hundred apps, and keep on truckin'. (If you do run out of room, reboot so the A2SD script can move everything around, and you should have room again).

Just don't do that on this rom, because a2sd is broken. Wait until the next version.
[G1 Android Development] carnegie0107:
Oooops double post. Delete please?
[G1 Android Development] sw20matt:
cam?

Will start by saying THANK YOU! for this rom. love it.

just wondering if anyone has started to work on a driver for the cam?
[G1 Android Development] carnegie0107:
Yeahhh.... I'm thinking that's going to have to be up to HTC. I dunno if anyone here would be able to cobble together a working driver for this.
[G1 Android Development] alwaysbelieve1:
Awesome! I did search and that is why I'm asking... You answered perfectly and I very, very much appreciate your clear and concise response.

Thanks again!
[G1 Android Development] sw20matt:
anyone else loose paid apps on market?
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
I see um, office togo or whatever is in market.
[G1 Android Development] sw20matt:
i didnt loose all paid, just some, like My Backup Pro
[G1 Android Development] carnegie0107:
That's because some don't support Android 2.0.1 yet. Email the devs of those apps and ask them for support. Like Protocol-x (sufbs, probably my very favorite app)
[G1 Android Development] BlackElvis79:
Any chance of getting the boot animation from Hero Eclair (droid) to replace the over sized one in this one?
[G1 Android Development] carnegie0107:
Would be cool to have the droid boot. Even better to have a customized real animated boot. I'm with Elvis.

But, I made a cool discovery, for those asking to have both the slide unlocker AND the lock pattern screens, like on hero droid? It's possible. Get the app "autolock" from the market, having both lock screens is a side effect. Because the lock pattern is off when your phone goes to sleep, and autolock turns it on in the background after this, your slide lock screen is already shown when your phone realizes that it now hast to show the pattern lock. Cool work around, and unintentional! Set the lock delay really low if you don't like waiting.
[G1 Android Development] alwaysbelieve1:
On mine I actually didn't lose ANY apps and had all my paid and free there waiting for me. I thought it was very, very odd since I wiped and formated my sd. Strange huh?

What do you think could have happened? Tho I'm NOT complaining. :)
[G1 Android Development] carnegie0107:
Most likely none of your apps are hidden from the market for 2.0.1 devices. Not many are, that I can tell. SUFBS just happens to be one of them, and it makes me sad...
[G1 Android Development] alwaysbelieve1:
What I mean is that when I booted up from flashing the rom the first time and went to the Market all my prior apps were there: paid and free.

By the way, what's "SUFBS"?
[G1 Android Development] georgegreco86:

Why the hell is HTC taking so long in getting the camera drivers out?
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
A root explorer Super User File Browser don't know what the final S is for
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
They might just not support g1 anymore, therefore no need for updated drivers. Mytouch drivers may not be here until 2.0 is ready for the Mytouch
[G1 Android Development] sw20matt:
what has changed between 2.0 and 2.0.1? the free version of mybackup pro shows up but the paid version isnt there. it even says on the paid version "supports 2.0"
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
It may also be a problem with the build.prop, I'll download in a sec and see. If it shows some paid apps but not all, that means that protected apps aren't showing

edit:http://www.4shared.com/file/171648649/907cdade/_2__buildtrout.html

Rename as build.trout.prop, put it in /system, and reboot
[G1 Android Development] lesjaw:
eugene..

can you check this thread? Native IM Client

i hope u can make this app avalaible on your rom..
[G1 Android Development] Abrasher:
Great Work

This is great work! I am looking forward to seeing how this ROM works against my battery life. If it is decent than all i will need is my camera. GREAT JOB. I might actually donate cash to a project this time around.
[G1 Android Development] sw20matt:
how do i move this into system?
[G1 Android Development] davidst3r:
How do i use appstosd? None of my apps are on it when i flash
[G1 Android Development] AbsoluteDesignz:
in this Rom it's not automatic so you have to create a folder in /system called /sd then reboot the phone.

Data is internal I believe so u'd still use internal space, just not a lot.
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
terminal:

rwsystem (or "mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system" No quotes)

cp /sdcard/build.prop /system

reboot

adb:

The same as terminal but before you type "rwsystem", do an adb shell

recovery console:

The same as terminal, but remove "rwsystem" and put "mount -a" instead

Has anyone had any success with an andoid keyboard fix for this ROM yet?
[G1 Android Development] falcon5150:
When will we get Moto apps add-on?

When will we get Moto apps add-on? Great Rom need Moto apps.
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
hero eclair is not on the droid(verizon) droid has eclair which is this rom.Also the boot screen for this says android only right? Havent used this but it probly does.You could try a metamorph to change the boot screen.
[G1 Android Development] markimar:
Why is the text prediction all screwy in this edition? Is there a dictionary we can pull from another build?
[G1 Android Development] AbsoluteDesignz:
yea I was gonna start using the stock keyboard but that sucked...I suggest you just use HTC_IME.apk until its fixed....or any other keyboard.
[G1 Android Development] camarriott:
2 Possible Issues - Someone Please Confirm.

I found 2 possible issues, both in Manup and Eugene's 2.0.1 rom:

1. The Google search widget doesn't appear to be fully functional. I can type text into the search bar but when pressing enter or the search button to actually do the search, nothing happens, it just sets there.

2. If I search from address bar inside of the browser, I get a browser force close.. %100 of the time.

I'm using a MT3G and I did a full wipe including all partitions on the SD card before installing.

Aside from this and a few known bugs this rom is killer!

Is anyone else seeing these issues?
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
I got that in a eclair hero rom from eugene.
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
It seems that what ever fixed sync did it, before the 2.0 roms had fully function sync it worked just fine. I use it all the time
[G1 Android Development] seanhassars:
i get stuck in a bootloop everytime i do this.
[G1 Android Development] cashmony:
Gotta give it to you guys (eugene & manup)! Lovin this rom like no other!Keep up the great work guys!
[G1 Android Development] dialdayo:
I just wanted to say i appreciate all your work..this is an excellent rom..i have no issues with it.it runs smooth and I love the animations when i return back to my home screen..pair this rom with Beatiful Widgets from the market, and who needs Hero..all we need is a camera fix, and ill be set. Also can we have the dock app, and my g1 doesnt show the droid boot screen like whats posted in the change log
[G1 Android Development] acejoker25000:
Do u have amonra recovery!? If so then just choose the option move apps to ad n it will create the sd and keep all ur old apps I had the same problem n that fixed it!
[G1 Android Development] jerhoyet:
Apps2SD isn't automatic on this ROM? Just curious. In the process of booting for the first time with this ROM after flashing the Danger SPL (which was painless). Hope all goes as planned :]

Edit: Okay, booted, logged in, and synced. Very nice ROM! Thanks for the work Eugene! I'll let you know if I have any issues :]

Q: anyway we can disable the menu button from unlocking the screen through an options menu or something?
[G1 Android Development] markimar:
It is an excellent ROM just needs camera drivers and predictive text fix and this puppy us an every day use rom!

Great work Eugene and all who played part!
[G1 Android Development] goldenarmZ:
That's nothing to do with it.. The new roms with working sync are based on Eclair2.0.1, while the GoogleSearch.apk they're using is from AOSP2.0.. it's not compatible. You'll see the package gets rejected at boot if you do a logcat.
[G1 Android Development] JAguirre1231:
Oh, well it was just my theory. I say this because I'm now using a 2.1 hero, and the build that Eugene got sync to work, was the build that broke the searching part of the search box. Clicking suggestions works, but typing in your own doesn't.
[G1 Android Development] camarriott:
Ahh, thanks. So grabbing GoogleSearch.apk from a 2.0.1 dump would probably be the fix?

Thanks for your help!
[G1 Android Development] jerhoyet:
Not sure why, but it seems that I'm missing several paid apps from Market, and apps2sd isn't functioning at all for me.
[G1 Android Development] Docavelli:
Excellent ROM!

I can second the search bug. After typing in th word, search never engages. I also lost use of AppManager after the first use.?? Not a big deal. I can use astro or just get the apps from the market. Other than that this ROM is sweet. And the new MANUP lockscreen is ridiculous! It's the way it should have been out of the box.

*For A2SD you have to make an "sd" folder in /system then reboot. For some reason its not being created by the script. I'm showing 84mb free now.
[G1 Android Development] control1110:
Is anyone having the problem where, it doesn't recognize the ext3 partition? I am using cyan 4.2.8 apps to sd works, but when I flashed this rom all my apps disappered
[G1 Android Development] opasha:
APPS2SD does NOT work on this rom or on manup's rom. THEY need to fix it. you cannot manually fix it yourself by entering whatever commands anyone in this thread has told you because it does exist already. however you cannot copy files there because it doesn't work (they must have missed something in the update-script or whatever placeholder in some alternate place- the new apps2sd is slightly more complicated). i have ext3 partition not ext4. how do i know? i tried and tested multiple ways by reading. stop wasting your time.
[G1 Android Development] Docavelli:
Im sure you know way more about this stuff than me so can you explain why after initial boot I only had about 60 mb internal (I don't remember the exact number). Then after adding the sd folder to /system do I now have 83mb internal? Isn't that A2SD?
[G1 Android Development] zapyourit:
You, sir, are incorrect. We have root, therefore we have the fix. The problem was that Eugene didn't include the "rw" setting for the SD card in the ramdisk IIRC. That means that the script, though initiated every boot, has no authority to create the /system/sd folder. Once this folder is made, however, the phone can easily move around the apk's because it DOES have the authority to do that.

Go into a terminal or "adb shell" then >>

su
rwsystem
mkdir /system/sd
exit

And voila! Reboot and A2SD will work like a well oiled machine. Just got rid of that little "low storage" warning myself. 9.99MB to 52.9MB in 60 seconds or less. :D
[G1 Android Development] control1110:
I added /system/sd and now my phone gets stuck on the android boot screen, anyone else encounter this?
[G1 Android Development] jerhoyet:
Thanks for a detailed fix for that issue!

Does anyone know why I can't view most of the apps I've purchased in Market?:confused:
[G1 Android Development] opasha:
if this works for everyone, more power to you. i wasn't being smug. many people would ask me if i tried multiple methods and i did. that was the point of that question. the information you provided is a bit different from everyone else who "thought they knew" how to fix it when they clearly didn't. i hate people who post things without testing it themselves. you seemed to have gotten it to work, so good job on that and thank you.
[G1 Android Development] johnt2k:
can any one tell me the differance between this and Manups Eclair_2.0.1-v1.0 G1/MT3G 32B they appear to be the same thing ???

have to say its fast and very stable and runs alot better then hero/sense UI 2.1

but is their any way to get 5 home screens on either ??? because 3 just isnt cutting it

open home work on 2.0 ??? i may try it tomorrow but i hate how it ****s everything up and you have to wipe and do a fresh install if it doesnt
[G1 Android Development] zapyourit:
Not a problem. Glad I could help, but I think Eugene said that paid apps in Market work for some people and not for others. Might be Youtube I'm thinking of though.

No problem. I appreciate the honesty there and I understand. I get upset at people who do the whole "I know more than thou so I'm better" deal too, which is why I took offense. Did the fix work for you as well or not so much?

Any chance you can get a logcat of booting? Or possibly a DDMS log to see what's going on? I'm not an expert, but creating one folder in /system seems like it really shouldn't create that type of problem.

Did you have any market apps (free or paid) installed or was this after a fresh install of the rom? If it was on a fresh install, that could be the problem as the script would be calling to move all sub-files where no sub-files exist.
[G1 Android Development] kittcoldfire:
first off, awesome job guys, this rom is fast and pretty awesome!! Just a few things!!

I thought this was supposed to have the Sense UI built into it? (The droid build looks nice though)

A few bugs I've noticed after using it for a little while

1) in the display bar it shows my carrier (Rogers) twice, one on top of the other

2) my contacts dont load into the phone properly, they're all saved on the sim and when i import them I either get an error saying they can't, or it does, but then it doesn't display them and i can't search contacts in the messaging app or anything?

3) the calendar widget doesn't work (just says problem loading widget)

4) Apps2sd doesnt seem to be working? The apps I had before aren't there anymore...

I've been getting a lot of force closes as well on random things like contacts, the phone and stuff like that,

So far tho guys its looking really good!! When will we have the sense UI working?

(I'm running an HTC Dream with the danger spl, cyans recovery and the proper partitions)
[G1 Android Development] jerhoyet:
Nah, that was totally the YouTube app. I can't seem to get it to work and Market Enabler has a parsing error every time I attempt to install it. :(
[G1 Android Development] zapyourit:
Nope. That would be the Droid/Hero 2.1 rom you're looking for. This is AOSP, aka no HTC things. See King's SenseUI Eclair rom here.

In no particular order...

2) What type of file are you using? It should be something like "contacts.vcf"

2a) With sync working, why still import? Or do you not use the Googles?

4) See previous page or click.

1) I have no idea what that's about. I've had it happen to my phone before as well, but I've not been able to figure out the cause or how to fix it.

3) This has been noted. Nobody is getting the widget to work as far as I know.

Do the FC's occur at boot or intermittently throughout use? Contacts could be caused by the same problem with the importation, which could also feasibly cause the problems with Phone considering they are inherently connected. DDMS or logcat will help.
[G1 Android Development] zapyourit:
Yeah, it was Youtube. A parsing error could mean corruption. I would unzip the AOSP21.zip file, grab the Market.apk out of /data/app, adb pull the Market.apk from your phone and then adb push the uncompromised apk to the phone. Reboot and see if magic happens.
[G1 Android Development] opasha:
the fix did work. however it says not enough space in adb so all my files did not copy over. only like a third did. i did it through adb shell since there was no terminal apk included with this rom. thanks for the help anyway. by chance, do you or anyone know if this rom can be themed. i'm a themer and was wondering if it's possible. i tried to theme the keyboard a while ago but it was not successful despite changing the png files. i did one time change the whole look of the entire rom but the keyboard remained the same.

edit: i might need to reboot so im trying that

edit: ok reboot fixed it and apps2sd was successful :)- thanks again
[G1 Android Development] Yaboiaj:
I'm having problems with the Browser closing when clicking on a suggested search in the address bar. Anyone else having this problem?
[G1 Android Development] BlackElvis79:
I mean the boot animation from his 2.1 release, which is an eclair rom with the sense UI incorporated. They both have the same boot animation, only the one from 2.1 is the size it's suppose to be and it also has the boot.mp3 (droid).
[G1 Android Development] eshu21:
wow

Nice work manups serious rom almost stable just need the cam/..corder like the new unlock. Slide feature I know there's more but to me its stable...you gotta wipe guys..full wipe wipe 1.2.3. And you'll get the best of this rom awsome rom guyz keep up the good work and thanks again...
[G1 Android Development] kittcoldfire:
Thanks! You helped out with a lot actually!! I got the apps2SD working no problem with that fix and its running pretty smoothly.

I usually get 2 FC's when i boot up (something to do with the android onscreen keyboard...) and just as I'm using it for a little while constantly things will force close, I also noticed that the "search" settings FC every single time so I can't change those at all but the search itself is working fine so I'm not sure what would be the problem there?

Otherwise than that I'm enjoying playing around with it and it seems pretty solid (bluetooth working again is amazing) now we just need a good 2.0.1 Sense UI rom (with bluetooth working) and we'll be all set until the X10 software gets dumped and we all want the panels O_o hahaha
