[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Tiggsy:
Perhaps someone could tell me what i've done to mine.....

It was running JF1 firmware (from O2) and was REALLY laggy (i almost sent it back) - After looking around the forums i tried to flash the leshak version for rooting but it didnt work (the new firmware showed in the phones status details but there was no rrot access) - so i ended up just flashing the XF5/B firmware as per this thread and now the thing is flying!

So....could just the upgrade in firmware make that much difference? (its like a different phone) and do i need to bother with rooting now?

Oh...and when 2.2 comes out will i still be able to upgarde as normal?

Tiggsy
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hihihehe:
new firmware is out..

btw do i need to backup all my data before flash it?

if yes,then which app is good for backup?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dinfung:
sorry for the newbe question. do i need to root th sgs before i flash to a different software? i have a hk version i9000zsjf5, flashed to jfb and i couldn't connect to my data network. calling and answer is ok.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BearCavalry:
After many tweaks my EVO is almost perfect, but I still can't seem to figure out how to control media volume from my headset. I've tried both the ipod headset and the klipsch s4i and neither can control volume from the controls, but play/pause/skip/back do work. Suggestions?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BearCavalry:
Help please someone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BearCavalry:
Someone please help me with this issue.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JasjarMan:
Why not use a stereo bt headset? Or try the touch slide headset, works on the evo, but I dont remember if it had volume buttons, skip.play ,reverse did have and worked nicely.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BearCavalry:
Thanks for the response! I'd really rather not have to buy another headset for something as simple as this, and it seems a little ridiculous that HTC/Google would release a product with this limitation. Is there an appropriate app?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TurboX2:
there is no support for volume control from wire headphones yet, im hoping that somebody can make a small software package that will decode the vol+/vol- signals and adjust it accordingly..

Im going to be buying ipod headphones myself
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BearCavalry:
This is very sad and one of the little things holding Android back D= Thanks for the response!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aussiepunk:
I also have the Klipsch S4i headset. I love how it sounds for speech and music. The volume controls worked perfectly when I was trying out the T-Mobile HD7 Windows Phone 7 but I sent that phone back because of the crappy T-Mobile network in my area (San Francisco Peninsula). Now I'm back on my EVO and I have no volume controls. I'd be happy to kick down $10 to any dev who can set this up for me. I'm running the latest Fresh ROM.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bdwright77:
I don't suppose anyone has some more advice on this? I picked up playerpro, and I'm now able to play, pause, and skip with my Klipsch S5i headphones, but I can not control the volume, which is a pain to say the least.

Headset Button Controller app gave a bit more functionality (single, double, triple click), but I couldn't get it working and it also didn't have volume support.

Thanks for the comments guys.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drmacinyasha:
CyanogenMod 7 has these features. Single/middle button plays/pauses and next track. iirc, +/- does next/previous track (or might do volume, not entirely sure).

Oh, and 7.1 will be getting a crapton of customizations with the inline controls...

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bdwright77:
That last link looks like it addresses what I need it to. Do you know if these fixes have been implemented already? That looks more like a suggestion than an implementation.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bdwright77:
Anybody have any other ideas? As far as I can tell, CM7 doesn't yet implement the volume and play button controls on newer headphones with in-line controls.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] iloveandroid:
Ok so I downloaded the new droid x keyboard but it says install failed anybody know why
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] Royel:
might be because of the phones screen resolution
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] droidkevlar:
Ya, i tried same. I pretty much already knew it wasnt going to work but gave it a shot as well. Just have to wait for someone to hack it up for our screen res and we should be good to go. I am just taking a shot in the dark and thinking that is the only reason why it wont work and could be wrong.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] Nikolai2.1:
Mine installed just fine. I just cant get the keyboard to pull up
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] sunder74:
The Eris is mdpi where as the Droid is hdpi its a resolution thing...even if you got it to load the keys would be to big for your screen much like when the HTCIME first came out and everyone was jumping on the hi res version...
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] mattyboy1013:
does anybody know how to convert from hdpi to mdpi????? is it possible???
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] sunder74:
someone may port it...they're several pngs that have to be resized and edited etc porting any apk and or making a theme is a time intensive task so maybe if a themer or a dev feels like jumping on it...it may happen... if you want to tackle it yourself get you a trial copy of winRAR or another file reader and open a mdpi and the hdpi files and compare the res/drawables....thats a place to start I think.:)
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] thenestor:
It also has the resolution for each key specified in the decompiled .smali files inside classes.dex, so I think it's a big job to convert it. It's definitely beyond my ability. You'd need to use a tool like APK Manager 4.4 (search XDA for it) or manually decompile it with baksmali.

EDIT: I was wrong, the resolution in the .smali files is relative, so that's not stopping it from working.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] DS36:
I wonder if this would work with punk.kaos new froyo build?
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] iloveandroid:
Nope it wants to replace the latinime app thats why it wont install
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] thenestor:
Some Hero folks got it working as-is:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=710522#post6949662

It sounds like it only works with Vanilla-based ROMs since they have LatinIME in them (Android keyboard), and you have to push it to /system/app/LatinIME.apk (overwriting the Android keyboard) instead of installing it as a user app.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] iloveandroid:
How can I push it without a computer mine is broken at the moment
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] thenestor:
Most likely you can use Root Explorer or a similar app to move it into /system/app while the phone is on, then make sure you check its permissions (should be rw-r--r--), and then reboot for the change to take effect. Again, I haven't gotten this to work for me, but I'm on a Sense-based ROM. The successes reported were on Heros with their "darchdroid" ROM.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] thenestor:
I have an idea for getting this to work with Sense, and I'm testing my theory right now. My theory is that we're missing its dependencies (in /system/lib), so I'm going to just flash the "Android Keyboard for Sense" from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=5874235#post5874235

And then flash the new Droid X keyboard on top of that. Maybe that'll work.

UPDATE: YES! It works! Hang on, I'll post an update.zip to take care of installing it...
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] iloveandroid:
Can you post the flashable droid x keyboard for those on froyo or vanilla roms
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] thenestor:
It should already work on Vanilla ROMs. Just install the APK on the first page of this thread. The pre-requisite is that you have to have the Android stock keyboard (com.google.inputmethod.latin) installed, which you do.

The tricky part is a Sense ROM, because it doesn't have the Android keyboard.

Attached is a flashable ZIP to install the Droid X Multi-Touch Keyboard onto a Sense-based ROM (or any ROM without the Android stock keyboard).

Credit to itmustbejj for original keyboard.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] iloveandroid:
so I got it to install but I just get it force closing every three seconds
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] thenestor:
Try the flashable version instead.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] droidkevlar:
Nice work man. Cant wait to check this out. Might be better than Swype.

Keep it up. You been on a roll lately.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] sunder74:
using it on my Moto Droid and its amazing...better than swype imo having no lag and its very responsive...
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] thenestor:
Ok, I re-zipped the APK to incorporate the missing libraries, so you can even use it on a non-rooted phone. No need to use the flashable version if this one works for you. Install it like any app.

Credit to itmustbejj for original keyboard.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] mattyboy1013:
Total noob questions

can I flash this on a stock Rom? how do I flash the update zip? Do I need the stock Android keyboard of I'm on stock sense or a sense based Rom or is that step just for the vanilla Rom?
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] thenestor:
Just install the APK directly above instead. Way easier. If that doesn't work, THEN flash the ZIP instead, and it's meant for any Sense-based ROM.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] iloveandroid:
ok so I've tried both of your methods and neither of them work the flashable one gives me an fc and the installable one doesn't pop up I'm running kaosfroyo just fyi
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] thenestor:
Ok, I guess that means it doesn't work with froyo. I'm sure someone on the Nexus One forum will post a version that works with that, though, and now we know it's scalable.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] droidkevlar:
Now we just need someone to theme it up. Not liking the red when pressed. heheh
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] rangestang:
Keyboard works great! Using Evil Eris 3.0. I do agree it could be themed up a little bit. Only problem i've noticed is the vibrate on keypress. Only just barely can you notice it. any way to make it vibrate a little longer?
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] ttran97:
I installed the apk for my phone running the xtr ROM. Works great. Thanks, thenestor! I'm not sure what the benefits of this keyboard are, so I'll go back to swype for now. But I guess it's better than the stock keyboard.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] es0tericcha0s:
Yea, that's what I was wondering... With the smaller screen of the Eris and for those with maybe bigger/clumsier fingers, would this be an improvement over Swype? I'm a fan, and it would take a lot to pull me away from it. That being said, I'm open to new things if I hear anything that would make it seem worthwhile...
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] DS36:
keyboard works great for me

running personaly modified stock rom
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] jpzsports:
So can I install this on my non-rooted Eris and install it just like a 3rd party keyboard?
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] iloveandroid:
Alright dude so i switched to a 2.1 ROM and IT WORKS dude i love you in a friendly way im so glad i made this thread thank you so much
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] thenestor:
Yes.

As far as I can tell, the multi-touch feature doesn't actually work on anyone's phone, so don't be too excited.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] iloveandroid:
The multitouch works on mine a little to well
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] n2imagination:
Im on a cm build, so this says latin not found. End result no work right? Have to wait?
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] Smoothcrm7:
i flashed the sense one in cyan and it worked
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] zach.xtr:
Thanks to all for putting this together and this is a cool keyboard!

I modified the code of the DroidXIME.apk in thenestor flashable zip so that vibration works better for our Eris. Updated DroidXIME.apk File attached.

You can adb push to the phone and maybe thenestor can add to his zip after a few others test... ;)

Have only tested on my ERIS so please NAND before tring...

Enjoy
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] thenestor:
Nice! Thank you! I'll test it out...

UPDATE: Seems to be working! I can definitely feel the haptic feedback now. Thanks for making that change!

UPDATE 2: Doesn't work on a phone without Android keyboard, such as a non-rooted Eris. Can you copy the /lib/armeabi/libjni_latinime.so from my version and paste it into your version? Then it will install on non-rooted devices (and on ROMs without the stock Android keyboard).
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] zach.xtr:
Sorry to have missed that first time, I did not see your second post... The updated DroidXIME.apk file "should" now work with both rooted or nonrooted phones.

I also fixed a bug on the alt keys screen so that "&" is displayed correctly and not as "&".

Enjoy
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] thenestor:
Thank you! Everyone, please download Zach.xtr's version instead if you want haptic feedback.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] McFluffnStuff:
The new file by zachxtr doesn't work on my nonrooted phone. It installs just fine but the keyboard doesn't pop up.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] thenestor:
Zach, newer version needs my libjni_latinime.so. Can you update it again? :D
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] zach.xtr:
Please try again... Thats what I get for playing while at work :o

The file that includes what I beleive to be all required lib files is 3.15MB in size and the first I uploaded was only 3.11MB...

Let me know if I got it this time :rolleyes:
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] tonyb81:
When I put this on my sd card and I go to install it, it gives me a choice to uninstall or launch. It won't let me uninstall "uninstall not successful", then i go to launch it and I get "Activity not found - com.android.inputmethod.latin"

I've removed it from the sd card through windows and i tried all the version in this thread and they all do the same thing.

any tips.

BTW I'm running CELB 2.7
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] McFluffnStuff:
Oh. Ok, i got it to work. The file I was using was 3.11 MB <_< Thanks :D
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] zach.xtr:
dark theme version

All - I have posed a themed version of this keyboard at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=713565 if you are interested. :D
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] kamots:
I believe they have it working over at androidforums under the Eris thread
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] kamots:
Yes. worked for me that way. non rooted
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] thenestor:
If you're using a ROM that already has a stock Android keyboard, you have to rename this "LatinIME.apk" and push it to /system/app, overwriting the vanilla keyboard (it uses the same package name: com.android.inputmethod.latinime). If you're using a Sense-based ROM, you can install it like any old APK.
[G1 Android Development] uries62:
New mod for King's Slide2G1 Rom. Took out all the fluff and extraneous libs to fit framework on system partition once again. The idea behind this rom is to keep the good things about Sense (themed consistent apps, dialer, keyboard), and getting rid of the slow (Rosie, widgets, flash).

HTC Apps present:

Dialer

Contacts

Calendar

Browser

Weather

Peep

Facebook

Notification Bar launcher

ADW is the launcher of choice (8.8),

recommend "fancy widget" if you want an HTC themed clock.

To flash, all you need is:

Wipe, Clear Cache, Clear Dalvik, Repair ext.

You shouldn't need as big of a swap as King recommends (160mB), but I haven't tested that.

A2SD and Swap are automatic if partitions are available. In fact, /system/app is placed on ext, so make sure it exists.

Dexopt takes a while on first load, so be patient.

As for social, flickr, facebook, and twitter are still on here, however HTC Facebook doesn't seem to want to sync with contacts.

Like all Sense roms, BT does not work.

Modded HTC_IME provided by jonas.

Thanks to King Klick for his great rom.

[G1 Android Development] eXase:
So this is a sense rom without... sense essentially?
[G1 Android Development] deuse:
It don't make sense not to have sense in a rom that is sense, does that make sense? :D
[G1 Android Development] chaibynight:
Sensical or not, I kind of like the sound of this little rom. Let's see what comes tomorrow, and I'll gladly give it a try. Thanks in advanced, dev!
[G1 Android Development] Sik-1:
i usually do this with all my sense roms, lol i love the xtra features htc puts in the sense builds, im glad ur doing this show them wat sense is like with adw launcher lol
[G1 Android Development] nicknowsky:
which honestly is not a bad Idea, the Slide is a recent build, basically s smooth 2.1 ROM. It would be nice if someone actually included some live wallpapers. I guess its like being able to shut sense off like in the latest Legend and Desire roms. That feature has never worked for us though, making a Sense ROM into a default vanilla 2.1 ROM
[G1 Android Development] uries62:
Link updated in first post. Let me know how it works.
[G1 Android Development] jcarrz1:
Wow i'm really impressed at how stripped down this is! i wonder if you can just push rosie.apk in and it'll work?
[G1 Android Development] roccodaone:
I find this to be a great idea. Keep it up!
[G1 Android Development] loustrk:
Would it be at all possible to post another download link,

My work computer and 4shared don't get along:mad:.
[G1 Android Development] art010606:
So why wouldn't u run cm or any other of the other 2.1 roms out there and just download and install the HTC IME? This is senseless..... in more than 1 way.
[G1 Android Development] uries62:
This comes with all the HTC apps:

Weather,

Contacts,

Dialer,

Browser,

Twitter,

Facebook

Which all look much better than the stock android apps. Calendar or Dialer itself is enough for me to want to do this.
[G1 Android Development] uries62:
Adding Rosie might work, however all the add program functionality and widget DL manager is removed, so you might not be able to do much in the way of widgets, which is probably the reason you want Rosie.

Has it got the Slide full screen weather animation? and I surpose you took the themes out to?
[G1 Android Development] lightninbug:
why does the topic thread say the version of the rom is 1.2? Cuz all the download links say .7?...am I missing some versions?
[G1 Android Development] sleepy3194:
Anyone try this yet?
[G1 Android Development] uries62:
This is coming from King's Slide2G1 version 1.2, with all the fixes associated with it. Its been 7 iterations since I came up with the idea.

I must say its fast as normal cm 2.1 Good job:D
[G1 Android Development] darj008:
I looked at this and said "what???? why whould anyone want this" so then out of curiosity I tried it.....AND I FREAKIN LOVE IT lol :D Awesome job! I just have one question how do you change the lockscreen picture?
[G1 Android Development] Kid_Ding:
If myModes was not taken out of this build, then you can customize it there. Or choose an image directly from your gallery and use the same 'set as' functionality for wallpapers to change your lockscreen.
[G1 Android Development] g1junky:
im gonna try this ... regular 2.1 + sense apps = WIN
[G1 Android Development] uries62:
I am looking into a fix for this, but currently the only way I know to change it is push a file to /system/customize/resource/htc_wallpaper_01_lockscreen.jpg

I'll think about adding MyModes back, I just wasn't sure how necessary it was.
[G1 Android Development] loustrk:
Been playing around with this for a few hours now and I must say, you

have a nice little snappy rom here:D. Very nice variation on the Sense

theme.

I just added the 3d gallery along with a mod. keyboard and they work

perfect! This is already backed up in my switchrom folder. Just tell me

how to change the lock screen wallpaper, scared the hell out of me:eek:!

Just kidding! Very nice job, thank you:)
[G1 Android Development] jon6206:
please do! :D

Ran for 6 hours now and been great

[G1 Android Development] bkrill:
Is anyone else not getting friend stream to work? If it doens't work how do i remove it?
[G1 Android Development] uries62:
I am working on that right now. Looks like I got rid of one of the dependencies for friend stream, namely plugin manager. I got that fixed by pushing the file into sys/app and rebooting. However, I have a problem with

"Failed to find provider info for com.htc.htctwitter.provider.CacheImageProvider"

That I think exists even in Kings rom. This really slows down friend feed because it will not cache the images associated with contacts. Peep works fine though.

I will upload a no wipe update on Sunday to fix it.
[G1 Android Development] geokuttan:
so there is no flash on this one??
[G1 Android Development] deuse:
I would take a look at Firerats Slide. 99% of it worked. It may help you get a better build.
[G1 Android Development] loustrk:
Been running this since last night and the only problem I seem

to be having is call lag, 3 rings before my phone reacts. Everything

else is great.
[G1 Android Development] deuse:
If you read Kings thread you will find it's a known fault.

Some people take out the bluetooth file(best check that) but then have sound problems.

Also you will find that once the person has called you once it should not take long the next time.

When I tried the Slide roms here I missed to many calls so I don't flash them now.
[G1 Android Development] xjjjay:
Lets see... The rom is fast enough for daily use, getting some random FC's. The stock HTC messaging app FC's regularly when you open a conversation.

Shutdown is also broken, which is odd since it supposedly works in Slide2G1 1.2.

Basically if you're coming from CM5 or a variant you're sacrificing some speed and stability for HTC's dialer, contacts, camera, clock, and music apps (lockscreen controls!) But no widgets for any of these.
[G1 Android Development] thelamacmdr:
TBH I don't think many people turn off their phones regularly anymore and I haven't gotten the random force closes nor have I gotten the messaging force closes :/
[G1 Android Development] protomanez:
Eh, would prefer if you kept the widgets in there like music and such.
[G1 Android Development] kristopherson:
I can't get any connectivity. Says I have no SIM card installed.

Edit: My SIM is toast. I'm sure its nothing to do with flashing this ROM, because I've had the same SIM since 2003. ROM looks nice though. Pretty quick.
[G1 Android Development] rpmccormick:
I assuming no bluetooth on G1 correct? My car has built in BT and it is illegal to drive holding the phone to your ear, so I can't really go without it.
[G1 Android Development] loustrk:
I've had the same problem with the slide roms, knew it was an issue but was

thinking this lite version might have better results. Still keeping it for

a bit, I like it:)
[G1 Android Development] loustrk:
Same here. For the shut down problem, use the boot control widget it

works fine.
[G1 Android Development] jon6206:
good thing theres no speakerphone on the g1
