I hate to sound like a broken record here but here I go. I'm looking to install the HTC stock keyboard on CM6.1 I found info on doing this for the HERO but and tried it for my EVO, but duh, the keyboard wasn't formated for this phone.

I started a thread elsewhere asking for advice and someone advised that I should download Myn's optional original HTC keyboard. To me it doesn't make sense that it would work on CM6 w/o some kind of modification but what do I know.

And yes, I have googled this and searched within this forum w/o a definitve answer.
[EVO 4G Android Development] DarkAudit:
So nandroid and try it, and report back here if it worked or not. :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] SantinoInc:
Ok. So after unzipping Myn's file the actual apk is called "HTC_IME" I tried to install it using Astro and surprise surprise....it didn't install.

I knew it wasn't going to be that easy. WTF, how hard is it to make a keyboard that has some arrows and a button to exit the keyboard?
[EVO 4G Android Development] SantinoInc:
I'm going to try flashing the whole zip file instead of just installing the APK. Will probably crash my phone or something but I don't care at this point.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Hot_Hands:
Just flash "update-EVO-HTC_IME.zip" through recovery. It should show up in your input options list and work fine.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SantinoInc:
Hot Hand:

I tried that. It is labeled as "Touch Input" under Language & Keyboard. When I try to access it FC. Any ideas?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Stajdanley:
Long press 'Menu' on the stock keyboard to exit the keyboard. Unfortunately, no long press to add arrows, but WTH, you're halfway there. ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] SantinoInc:
Grrrrr. Flashing that stupid thing didn't do anything. Now I just have that junk on my phone for no reason. I get neurotic about that kinda stuff. I don't even know how to get rid of the worthless flash
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shane112358:
So I did exactly what was recommended and reflashed rc1. All was good for about 6 hours and I rebooted my phone to find that my exchange account was completely gone. Any more ideas?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Hot_Hands:
Hrm... maybe it needs to have the sense framework to run. Dumbass HTC...

As far as getting it off your phone it should be removable from /system/app.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SantinoInc:
Hot Hands: For future reference you really shouldn't comment on things unless you have personally confirmed that they work. In this instance that is most definitely not the case. Anyway, I'm no blaming you...i was going to do it anyway. Thank god I finally got the FC message to disappear. I guess i gotta live with this keyboard.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ChickenArise:
Fwiw SwiftKey also has arrows on the second symbol page and a swipe down gesture to close the keyboard. I believe that SlideIT had both as well.

[EVO 4G Android Development] maxdamage2122:
Did you use rom manager to flash? I've noticed that if you don't download and flash gapps with a rom your gapps will get deleted. But if manually flash the rom in recovery gapps is backed up and restored properly. So if you are using rom manager be sure to download and flash gapps everytime you flash a rom.

Battery not charging overnight

I have been on CM6 several mpnths now with no real issues. Currently I am on build 168, but this issue had surfaced using 6.1RC1. I charge my phone overnight. Typically it is 40 percent or so when I plug it in and I check to make sure that it is actually charging. When I wake the phone the indicator no longer says it's charging and it will actually be lower than when I started the previous night. I need to troubleshoot a bit more during the day when I'm awake to see when this actually transpires, but just curious if anyone has any thoughts. My first thought was that my cable was bad, but I'm beginning to have my doubts on this since it always says charging when I first plug in the cable. I ordered another for the heck of it and it hasn't arrived yet.

6.1 Calendar Question..

I just installed the new Cyanogenmod 6.1 ROM, which is great by the way, but when I am trying to add a calendar widget to my home screen and then add and event to it, it says that I don't have a calendar? I'm really confused.

I downloaded Smooth Calendar from the Market but to no avail.

Is there a way to sync facebook Calendar with my phone?

Any help would be great!

Thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] paranoid android85:
i dont think they worked out the kinks yet for facebook sync. you can get the facebook url calendar and add it to google calender, but you just get events not your friends bdays.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mgianni19:
I like to use the Calendar though just to put little events in, for instance, Pay this bill this day and time, but I can't even do that..

Is there a Calendar I need to download or something?
[EVO 4G Android Development] paranoid android85:
havent tried it, but can you flash a sense rom and save the calender app to titanium then use it when you flash back to cm6.1?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sporkman:
yea baked snacks i get 20 + hours per charge some times more

idk about the app could be wish it wasnt there ilove the rom just not the SHORT battery
[EVO 4G Android Development] spiicytuna:
This may sound stupid but I am curious. Has your battery actually ran out in < 4 hours? I convinced my coworker to flash cm6. After he did he got to ~20% in about 4 hours. This was before lunchtime today. Now it's 3 hours later and he's still got 17%. Now it's become a game for him (and me to watch ;)) to see how long the 17% will last. Perhaps the battery guage itself is reporting wrong for some people? or?

As a personal note; I run setcpu, have live wallpaper, surf the net, talk on the phone, sms, email (I manually check vs. auto-sync), etc and I get 18-24 hours out of my phone. I have been using smartphones since the late 1990's and I have always had to charge my phone each night, so I dunno, for me the evo seems on par. I know someone who has a basic Sprint phone that basically only makes calls and sms and that (basic) phone can go for ~3.5 days before needing a charge.... so I think this whole battery thing is about perspective and where/what (phones) people are coming from.
[EVO 4G Android Development] watzone69:
Good to see you in here Drybonz! :D

The lack of an update screen is on Cyanogen's to-do list (or so I have read). For now, just make a nandroid backup and then flash any 2.1 ROM. Once it boots, update your stuff and then restore your backup. PRI and PRL will survive successive flashes.
[EVO 4G Android Development] criccio:
At least we are coming to a consensus that this IS an issue. What could be causing this? I've testing this on 3 Evo's that have various 2.1 ROM's. I nandroided them, wiped data/dalvik/cache, Flashed CM6 RC1, installed Pandora (yes, I turned on the "high quality" mode) and bam, all three sounded like complete crap.

Nandroided back to their original 2.1 ROM's and they sound great again.

Apart from CM6 making LauncherPro feel extremely sluggish, this is my biggest gripe. If only it was an acknowledged bug...
[EVO 4G Android Development] chumba8:
there is a tock gooogle froyo launcher floating around thats what I am using with nightlys and it works awesome I m soooo happy to see the 3d launcher again too
[EVO 4G Android Development] ViViDboarder:
It comes with the stock launcher I think... Can't you just remove ADW and use it?

Oh and again since it got bumped off... Anyone know how to get the Google Maps 4.4 update? It wasn't coming up in market for me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tyrnight:
Not sure this is going to help.. but

I am on the 3500mah seidio battery and I got 28 hours on CM6 RC1 with HEAVY HEAVY usage... I even went as far as to leave the screen on a 30 minute timeout to kill the last 8% of the battery while I was calibrating and using the Stress test in setcpu and overclocked to the max and it still took over an hour to kill it completely on that same charge...

so it works ok in my book :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] nebenezer:
Excellent, excellent work!

This rc1 is my first experience with cyanogen, I'm blown away. I found dd2.7 just a week before I got my evo and I've really missed it since then. This rom is amazing.

Question, sorry if its been answered a million times.. where can I view my time since unplugged and up time? I can't find them together anywhere..
[EVO 4G Android Development] Drybonz:
Hey... thanks Watzone. Good to see you too. We seem to follow the same path of devices.
[EVO 4G Android Development] frankenstein\:
I didn't have any problem finding it in the market. Did a search and it came right up. Updated it yesterday after I saw the article about it on phandroid.

You could try using appbrain to find and install it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] roxtar21:
this might be a silly question but where do i download the actual rom, when i download the mirror it downloads as an update?
[EVO 4G Android Development] spiicytuna:
Assuming you are rooted, flash what you downloaded. All updates, nightlies, etc are "full" versions of the "ROM" Keep in mind once you get it going that you will need the separate download with all of the google apps (including the Market) ... once you are running cm6 you can apply nightlies over the previously installed cm6 should you wish to do it this way. Personally I flashed the first nightly release and have been flashing over it since.

Does anyone get the connection to wifi problem on this rom ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] mntbkr:
Just tested this out, and it worked for me. Only one notification. Also I installed the Sprint VVM app, is it necessary to have the sprint updater installed also? every time I reboot It FC's on me.

...actually that didn't do a thing I'm still getting the sms notification from 9016.
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
really?? i used launcherpro since the nightly builds started and have had *zero* issues unless i overclocked to 1152. i recently got launcherpro-plus, and no issues with that either. maybe you need to tweak some settings?

that's in menu > settings > about phone > battery use
[EVO 4G Android Development] BB15:
Just for input's sake on the whole battery life thing. I unplugged 8 hours ago and am currently sitting at 67%.
[EVO 4G Android Development] frankenstein\:
I had the same fc problem with the updater. I don't think its needed though as I later did a full wipe and clean install of cm and only installed vvm and it's working just fine for me wit the exception of the check for update function.
[EVO 4G Android Development] DanBergundy:

Weak cell signal

I know I read on here that this uses 4 bars and not 6 and that this correctly reports the true signal. But from my personal expierence this rom has the weakest reception and a lot of time I can not make a call at all in an area that on any sense rom I would have no problem. Is there something I can do to improve the signal because I love CM. I tried flashing a stock rom and updating profiles and prl but it doesnt help. Thanks in advance.
[EVO 4G Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
Make sure that you have the most recent radio ... my signal drastically improved when I updated it. There is a flashable zip somewhere in the development section that updates Radio, PRI, and WiMAX to the most recent versions.

Have you considered eliminating the sliders?

To each there own, but I hated them. Way too busy.
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
kind of a loaded question, but i'll do my best to explain :D

i'm using the dark froyo theme set with desire wifi & circle battery. but i dont always want everything black... so for now i've setup my own colors for status & notifications bar/windows.

ADW is the launcher, using the CyanogenMod ADW Theme made by klinster found in the market (free & awesome)

the live wallpaper is also found in the market, just search for cyanogen & you'll find it.

various widgets are setCPU, juiceplotter, BattStats Pro, Weatherbug Elite, Switch Pro Widget

with the dark froyo theme u get the extra cool semi-hidden lock controls
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
i really like the lockscreen, but i'm still diggin the semi-hidden ones in dark froyo.. yours looks dope tho man! i like it
[EVO 4G Android Development] driguez:
I like. Is there a flashable?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bizdady:

[EVO 4G Android Development] gregfink:

[EVO 4G Android Development] Bizdady:
Im no pro at making files but I did put up the framework apk on the nightly thread, I did use adb to push but someone used ninja morp so u can try that way as well.
[EVO 4G Android Development] paranoid android85:
yea im liking that too. is there a way to flash it?
[EVO 4G Android Development] pardonmyownage:
i wasnt able to either... i had to use my wifes phone with ava-froyo to download and backup the .apk with astro, then transfered it to my phone and installed using astro. this gets the original installed, but you cant ever update from the market. (pocket legends updates when it starts so its not a problem)

you could try to make a nandroid and install a different rom and back it up, then reload the backup. at least this works till it gets fixed.

[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
I could post a zip, but the framework has been changing so often with these nightlies it might not be compatible with whats next who knows. But I can, or you can

pull framework-res.apk out of /system/framework before flashing.

open it up and look for res/drawable-hdpi and pull that out.

open up drawable hdpi and scroll through it till you seen them

open each out in whatever (gimp, photoshop, something that can save in png with transparency)

highlight the slider on the opened image and delete it, then save.

I'm experiencing a great deal of crashes and lock-ups. It seems to occur primarily when I use my browser. It's been happening for a some time now, but it's become a big enough issue that I thought I'd post about it and see if others are having similar issues.

Using Nightly 173 with the default kernel, but I've been crashing since the late 160s. Early on, when I was crashing, I attributed it to the beta/tester .35 Kernel, but I've been on the default kernel for a few nights now and I still experience this. I also use SetCPU, which runs overclocked at 1113 mHz at battery levels above 15%.

Basically, what happens is that the browser ultimately becomes unresponsive when loading a link, and it freezes. It remains in this state for a while. The force-close dialog never appears. Instead, after 30s to a few minutes, it will reboot.

Has anyone else experienced behavior like this?
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
nope with all the framework changes, i'd almost recommend a wipe & start over.. the market syncs all your apps if you have it configured & will re-install all of them for you when u sign in to google.

using Titanium Backup after the wipe, or restoring the Apps without Data? Or, does it not matter with respect to my crashing issue?

Something happened in CM6.1 for USB tethering...changed the PID when activated from 0ffe to 0c04. In htcrndis.inf from the HTC drivers, I changed the end of lines 26, 30, and 34 from 0ffe to 0c04 and installed that to get it to work again.

The lines should look like this:

%RndisDevice% = RNDIS.NT.5.1,USB\VID_0bb4&PID_0c04

I have had some issues with Windows when removing the device/turning off tethering, where it will freeze the network connection and I will have to reboot the computer to use tethering again...never had that with 6.0.

bump, can anyone help me? It happened again last night. I don't even care about the random reboots as much as I care about the fact that I have to re-set up my Exchange account every single morning...
[EVO 4G Android Development] wojosama:
I think if you let the market download them then you don't have to keep hitting install/done on each install like with titanium restore. The downside is that you have to let them all download again. So if you aren't on wifi, it will probably be faster to just hit the install/done. It's really just personal preference, I think?

One last thing, if there were a lot of changes to the framework and/or the configuration options, I wouldn't recommend restoring system/sounds settings with titanium because I know some people (myself included) had issues with things not working right and FC's when accessing settings after doing so. Generally if you do restore them and experience any problems, going into manage applications and clearing data for the settings apps will usually fix it.
