I know that. In 2.2 there is no android keyboard, they got rid of it. I want it back because I find it superior. However none of the ones I've installed have haptic feedback like they did on 2.1 and that's what I want. And yes I know that you have to enable it in the settings.

I don't know if I hate haptic feedback or the samsung keyboard more. The Android keyboard is the best one out there (IMHO)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dave the Knave:
My whole point in creating this thread was to get the Android Keyboard back on 2.2 and have it fully functioning. Meaning I wanted the haptic feedback on it to work and it doesn't. Was there another file or something that went with the LatinIME.apk on 2.1 that I don't know about or couldn't find? Can anybody shed some light on this situation? I desperately hate the Swype and Samsung Keyboards.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FireRaider:
No luck with this? I would like to have the Android 2.1 keyboard back as well. (with the hepatic response)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dave the Knave:
No luck. But I think I may know what the problem is.

On a few of the android keyboards I've seen around the forums, some of them had a corresponding .so file. I don't really know what that is, but I'll go do some research, rummage through my JF6 dump, and post my results here.

Edit1: Ok, so here is what I found. A .so file is a shared object file. Not quite sure what it actually does still, but the Android Keyboard (AOSP) has a .so file that goes with it. I'm guessing that this file is what allows the keyboard to have haptic feedback. I'm going to take the one from my JF6 dump and push it to JI6 and see what happens after a reboot.

I'm experiencing the same thing, default froyo keyboard on a captivate with froyo, no haptic feedback.

So far I've tried:

- a bunch of different google searches for the same issue

- finding the apk in /system/app and giving it full permissions + reboot + uncheck and recheck the haptic feedback setting

- poking around the file system to see if I can find any settings to mess with

I understand froyo for the captivate is pretty new, but I'm surprised more people aren't asking about the best keyboard (IMO) missing a significant feature.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Solomente:
Before froyo, I rooted my Incredible and set S-OFF, then unrooted (left S-OFF) and updated with OTA. So today I have 2.2 stock unrooted with S-OFF. I'm trying to root now and I followed steps 15-21 of this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=771178 but the phone still isn't rooted. Actually I don't really know how to tell if it is or not, but apps that require root access (like ShootMe) say they can't get it, even though it's granted in the Superuser app. If I go into hboot it shows version .92, which I believe is the correct one...?? What I'm wondering now is can I just run unrevoked (now that it works with 2.2) instead of the steps in the above listed post, or is that going to screw something up?

This information should be stickied.

If you guys want to insure that you do not lose 4G connectivity, perform a nandroid back up with the current AmonRa recovery and put it in a safe place. I have mine sitting in my dropbox. This will include your wimax.img and will contain your unique RSA keys in case they are lost in the future.

If you lose them and you don't have a backup, your phone will never connect to 4G again. At least that's what I've been told.

So I ask myself, is mine OK just because I can connect, how can I explain the poor performance, hmm., is it possible in the big picture I toasted my radio or WIMAX config, well, hmm., let me figure out how to check, and away I go.

Meanwhile, I see all of these guys having all kinds of trouble with it, much worse trouble than you and I, so I felt compelled to say something.

Hopefully you are right, all is good, for me, I research further until I know for sure.

But again, as long as you can connect 3G/4G data, performance is good, I am sure you are good. AND it is good to hear someone HAS been successful, so thanks for posting.

At least some are having success, this is good to know. But then again, I have to ask, are you sure you are good. Please don't get me wrong I am not being argumentative here. But b/c of the problems, things I would check are:

1. Is the MAC under the battery the same MAC you have post the flash.

2. If you <adb shell wimax_mtd> are all your values good (OK,Pass,Match,<correctMAC>,OK)

3. Does a adb shell

# grep RSA /dev/mtd/mtd0

give you these two lines at the end of the return statements

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dwertz:
Also when got my phone on release date I used the Toastch Method so I never did the original unrevoked. The first Unrevoked is why you see people still worried about unrevoked methods and why some people think they have a bum rap. I have since used the Unrevoked forever and the one click with the 2.2 no issues. Amon 1.8 now backs up Wimax partition, well I see it in the backup, I have never tried to restore it. Also to make the adb shell wimax_mtd and the grep RSA /dev/mtd/mtd0 work the 4G needs to be on. I did not have it on the first time and had some weird things show up.

It seems to be coming together now. Great information dwertz

One question though. We you say the original unrevoked, which one exactly.

When I purchased my 2.2 EVO. I used regaw_leinad method which basically down graded you to 2.1, then ran unrevoked and unrevoke forever, then upgraded back to 2.2, long process but worked well.

Then the anxiously awaited unrevoked 3.21 was released, then pulled because of problems, was it this one that had the issue?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] debugguy:
[A] STOP - Do not flash your Radio/WIMAX

OK so I believe we still have inconclusive information on exactly what causes the RSA Private Keys to be wiped out and this causes an issue with connecting to 4G.

What we do know and what I would recommend to everyone is this:

1. Make sure you have both Root and Nand-Off before you flash your radio.

2. Make sure you are using ARMON RA 1.8.x recovery and have a nandroid backup. Verify it by navigating to the /sdcard/nandroid directory from there find your backup and make sure you have the wimax.img, if you are using ARMON RA, it will be there.

Note: may be a good idea to do a restore immediately after the backup just to make sure you have a good backup.

3. Do a pre-req check before flashing the new radios, make sure you know what the expected outcome should be:

a. execute and document performance tests on upload/download speeds 3G/4G/WIFI, get them all so you have a basis to work from.

b. do a full backup with Titanium "Backup all user apps + system data"

c. move a copy of your backups on the /sdcard/ to your laptop/desktop.

d. pull your battery and write down your unique MAC address, there is a label under your battery with your MAC address.

e. start your 4G and run these commands: (plug in your phone to usb to computer, select "charge only")

> adb shell wimax_mtd

Results should be by category: (OK,Pass,Match,<correctMAC>,OK)

** now start your 4G radio and run the following command:

> grep RSA /dev/mtd/mtd0

Results you are looking for here is (1) return of data with the last two lines showing the following:

-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----

-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----

Now take a look at normal behavior of your WIMAX radio, perform this command, perform several starts/stops of the 4G radio, get acclimated to the output of the command below.

> tail -f /data/wimax/log/*.log

The latest versioned radios are here:

The issue with losing the RSA Private Keys still elude me. I think there is a high probability it is not directly linked to the flashing of radios themselves.

The moral is (1) make sure you have a good nandroid backup, (2) understand fully what you are doing and the pro/cons of doing it, do you research first!

If you do this, you should have at high probability of resolving any issue you run into.

For everyone here that provided good information, it is very much appreciated.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kf2m:
He meant the Unrevoked for 2.1 . One of the rev's hammered the 4G keys. See whenever the Radio gets messed (flashing) with the keys are supposed to be copied into memory, then copied back once the operation is complete. If either copy fails bye bye 4G.

I did the regaw method, then toast parts 1 & 2. Once RA 1.8.0 came out flashed that. Took the wimax.img file from my first nandroid copied it to several places, and renamed it to PC36IMG.zip for easy restoration.
