Hey all,

Just rooted my Evo 2.2 with Unrevoked...installed Wireless Tether APK...when I click the app it comes up and I gave it superuser permissions...it will start tethering...when I try to connect to it with a laptop it can't identify network...and won't let me get on the internet...

is there something or some settings I need to change on the evo the laptops can connect? I see AndroidTether but it just keeps spinning and won't connect...THANK YOU!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChristopherBurg:
In the Wireless Tether settings try changing the channel to one and see what happens. This fixed all my connectivity problems.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rayman121985:
Didn't fix it yikes...the phone log doesn't even show things connecting...are you on 2.2 froyo?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tanikir:
Did you download it from the market? I've had trouble getting it to work that way. Try going to the developers website (link in market) and downloading the latest beta. That's always fixed my problems.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rayman121985:

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s_ravi_kumar:
Hi All,

I thought its wise to post to the forum so that masters can guide me. Situation is I got an SGS of UAE and it has no market. Kies says no update can be performed on this device.

I want to get Market on this and I am using this in India I want to shift to Indian / ASIAN ROM. I tried registry hack, but didnt work. I tried to just flash the CSC-xxxx.tar.md5 using ODIN , even though everything was successfull it showed back the same details.

Here are the details:

Gt-I9000

PDZ:JG8 / PHONE : JG2 / CSC : JG9

PDA : I9000JPJG8

PHONE : I9000JXJG2

CSC : I9000OJPJG9

Any ideas how I can come to Indian / Asian ROM and have the market installed ?

Thanks and Regards

Ravi.

Flash DDJG4 from samfirmware
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spandsbab:
Or you can just do this...

1- in the time settings, use 24 hour time format ( u can change it back after you finish)

2- in the dial pad, dial *#272*ur four digit time#

3- a menu will open, choose xsg then intall the market.

ps: this will wipe ur device, just make sure u bakup.

This will change your SlideME to Market... solved my problem!
[G2 and Desire Z General] tuzonghua:
OK so I installed the latest CM6.1 Nightly and was able to backup and then restore both QuickOffice and Swype. NOTE: I am NOT providing any apks for backup purposes or if you somehow lost yours. These are merely directions for how to get Swype/QuickOffice off your phone and back on.

BACKUP:

(In a terminal w/ ADB)

adb pull /system/app/Swype.apk .
adb pull /system/app/Quickoffice.apk .
adb pull /system/lib/libSwypeCore.so .

After installing a custom ROM....

adb install Quickoffice.apk
adb push libSwypeCore.so /system/lib
adb install Swype.apk
[G2 and Desire Z General] Phawkes:
I would love to know this as well. If you figure it out would you mind PMing me the details on how to do it?
[G2 and Desire Z General] tuzonghua:
Once a more stable version of CM6 or some other ROM comes out, I'll be trying it myself. Just as a reference, the ADB commands for doing this are:

C:\>adb pull /system/app/Swype.apk
C:\>adb pull /system/app/Quickoffice.apk

then after installing a custom ROM...

C:\>adb install Swype.apk
C:\>adb install Quickoffice.apk
[G2 and Desire Z General] ktt4510:
I was able to use ES File Explorer and press menu>manager>app manager> then long press the Quick office app to back it up to the SD card, still trying to find the Swype apk though, going to do some digging with SUFBS (another file manager) and see if I can't get a hold of the Swype apk
[G2 and Desire Z General] Sv3nt3k:
This would be pretty awesome once we figure this out. Using Swype is the main reason why I'm still on the stock ROM. I tried out Sense and if it can come with Swype, I'll be one happy camper.

Did anyone try the above poster's method on pulling the apk?
[G2 and Desire Z General] dyndragon:
Quickoffice will work, but Swype will not. Swype has some libraries that you have to copy as well. Beyond that, I've not tested it. Find those Swype specific libs in the stock ROM and copy them as well, and maybe you might be ok.
[G2 and Desire Z General] androidtoy09:
Any chances you guys can send me the original Swype.apk that pre-installed on the G2? I stupidly deleted it off while doing Titanium things. Thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z General] tuzonghua:
See the post above from Dyndragon. I don't know what specific libs also go with Swype so the apk alone won't be enough.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Egepi:
This is working fine for me on the CM 12 nightly. I used the same steps as you so try it with that?
[G2 and Desire Z General] popokrew:
Is there a way to get these files from a backup without having to back up the CM rom and then restore the stock, grab the stuff, and then go back to cm rom?
[G2 and Desire Z General] tuzonghua:
Popokrew,

No, AFAIK, and I cannot provide them here.
[G2 and Desire Z General] smirkis:
root file explorer

/system/app long click and copy what u wanna backup.
[G2 and Desire Z General] popokrew:
No worries. Ill restore the backup, grab it, and go back to cm once the RC comes out. I noticed the google apps are also missing and I know cm can't provide those so I'm sure there is a backup procedure for them.
[G2 and Desire Z General] shaneleelevin:
Hey guys, I was able to back everything up and while I was able to install the swype apk, whenever I go to copy the libswypecore.so file I have issues. Both through adb and root explorer. Any ideas? I'm going to attempt to do it through an update.zip + clockwork recovery now
[G2 and Desire Z General] shaneleelevin:
Ok, I got it, I'm not sure if everyone has to do this or if it was just an oddity for me but

A. For those that quickly jumped on the rom band wagon without thinking about backing up swype. You can just open any g2 stock rom as an archive and get the files from it.

B. This is what I had to do to install it.

Turn it from Read-Only to Read/Write

adb shell
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

Then you have acess to the system folder to copy the swype lib file so...

adb install Quickoffice.apk
adb push libSwypeCore.so /system/lib
adb install Swype.apk

[/QUOTE]

Then close that access up

mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

And your good to go.

REMEMBER SWYPE WILL NOT FUNCTION WITHOUT THAT LIB FILE!
[G2 and Desire Z General] popokrew:
If you are already on the custom rom and don't have the files, you can grab the files from the stock rom posted in this forum.
[G2 and Desire Z General] logicMASS:
adb wont let me adb push libSwypeCore.so /system/lib . Says it is read only. I just installed cm6.1 and would like to have swype back.

Thanks for any help.
[G2 and Desire Z General] AustinAce:
And where is this located?
[G2 and Desire Z General] blazegunz:
i got this to install. but when i go to use swype it says something about i cant use this version of swype with this phone.... do anyone know anything about this? if you do post some info. thanks!

i'm using the g2 with sense ui.
[G2 and Desire Z General] misteropinion:
Then close that access up

mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

And your good to go.

REMEMBER SWYPE WILL NOT FUNCTION WITHOUT THAT LIB FILE![/QUOTE]

Just FYI, you don't need all the extra stuff when you're remounting /system, you can just say

mount -o remount,rw /system

It already knows where it's mounted from and what it is, neh?

Also, I have a Swype Beta login, so I wanted to install the newest beta, and before you can install with the Swype Installer, you have to delete /system/app/Swype.apk and /system/lib/libSwypeCore.so both before the new beta runs right (if you leave the library it just FCs as soon as you enable it).
[G2 and Desire Z General] hypergraffic:
Hrrm just can't push the swype library to the directory using terminal emulator.

And Root Explorer (which is really good at instant ro/rw mounting isn't working on Cyanogen...
[G2 and Desire Z General] luis86dr:
I'm actually liking this keyboard over swype. I was getting ready to import swype but I think ill keep this. :)

[G2/HTC Vision]
[G2 and Desire Z General] Richard_Simmons:
Would it be safe to open up the RC1 in 7zip on my PC and just manually insert the Swype.apk and libSwypeCore.so into their respected folders before flashing the rom? Sorry if this is a stupid idea, I am new to Android
[G2 and Desire Z General] donaliar:
when i tried to push the libSwypeCore.so it said "failed to copy 'libSwypeCore.so' to '/system/lib/libSwypeCore.so': Read-only file system.

Any ideas how to fix?
[G2 and Desire Z General] Sv3nt3k:
EDIT: Wow, I feel retarded. Nevermind, figured it out.

Works great though! Haha.
[G2 and Desire Z General] tysklai:
I could not find the libSwypeCore.so, anyone can post it here? thanks
[G2 and Desire Z General] Sv3nt3k:
It's in /system/lib
[G2 and Desire Z General] tysklai:
I did search this location but just couldn't find it there
[G2 and Desire Z General] potentdro:
Damn, I didnt change the lib file to read/write and I already flashed CM. Not reading further FTL.

Is there another route or do I have to restore to stock again?

EDIT: found a way.

Went into Root Explorer > /system/lib > changed r/o to r/w > push the lib file > install swype
[G2 and Desire Z General] WarBird87:
i have the swype.apk and the libswypecore.so on my SD, how can i push the file to the system/lib folder using terminal emulator?

Edit: never mind, i believe i got terminal emulator to push the file to the /system/lib folder because i downloaded root explorer to drop the file in that folder and it said it was already there, so i just installed my old swype apk and i was good to go...
[G2 and Desire Z General] cparekh:
Worked great with the instructions given upthread. This is really easy if you use ADB. I am sure it gets much more difficult if you try to use terminal and Root Explorer.
[G2 and Desire Z General] WarBird87:
i cant use adb on my work computer so thats why i had to go the other route, but using root explorer is actually quite easy, i have a stock rom on my sd card so i copied the libswypecore.so file from there and placed it in the system lib file and then copied the apk and installed it... simple took two seconds
[G2 and Desire Z General] chewy106:
Surprised no one already posted this, but...

If you get the error with Swype that it's customized for a specific phone, go to build.prop and change these entries:

ro.product.model=HTC Vision

ro.product.brand=htc_wwe

(or whatever they are on your ROM installed)

To:

ro.product.model=T-Mobile G2

ro.product.brand=tmobile

Your backup Swype will work with Sense UI or whatever ROM then :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] Sv3nt3k:
I hope you're searching in the stock ROM image and not on your phone. Of course you're not going to find it on your phone if you switched to a Custom ROM. You need to find the stock ROM and look in the stock ROM's /system/lib folder.

Or if you have your own backup, just use that.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Vandam500:
Not to sound rude or anything but there are so many Swype apks almost everywhere. All you have to do is find one made for WVGA and install it. You have a Google phone, use Google search and find it. Works on any version of Android be it Sense or CM6 :/
[G2 and Desire Z General] chewy106:
All the Swype apks I've found online lack the microphone button present in the stock G2 version. Also most are expired beta versions. And some people want the one that came with their phone and not a hacked/pirated one.
[G2 and Desire Z General] skiptomylou11:
Can anyone tell me how to be able to back up and install Swype and the library.so while using terminal?

Unfortunately I have never been lucky enough to get ADB working on my computer, so I have to rely on pushing things through the emulator.

Much appreciated.
[G2 and Desire Z General] jkoenig00:
Okay here is what I did and it worked. Using SU File manager (found in the market if you search "root explorer") and on the stock ROM, copy the lib and apk files from /system/app and /system/lib. I copied them to the root of my sd card. Wipe everything and install CM and the addon. Grab SU File manager again and find the lib file on your SD card. copy it. There are two little buttons on the top of SU File manager with an S and a D. I pressed both of them to mount system and data as read/write. Go to system/lib and paste the lib file. Verify that it is there and since there are so many files sort by size its like 998kb. Then just use SU File Manager or astro or whatever to find Swype.apk on your sd card. Install it from there. With Astro click it and "open app manger." Then go to keyboard settings and enable it as an input method. Go to swype settings and it should not FC if you did this stuff correctly. Set your settings and enjoy! Oh yea dont forget to uninstall and refund SU File manager ;)
[G2 and Desire Z General] strker45:
Then close that access up

mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

And your good to go.

REMEMBER SWYPE WILL NOT FUNCTION WITHOUT THAT LIB FILE![/QUOTE]

When i do this it says push not found?
[G2 and Desire Z General] hypergraffic:
BAM that solved my permissions issues! The system and data mounting toggle!
[G2 and Desire Z General] fradog23:
Thank you!!!!! worked perfectly! Only thing I was missing with CM was swype. Not any more.:D
[G2 and Desire Z General] AustinAce:
Okay so I did it this way.

I download the OTA posted in the other topic.

-extracted libSwypeCore.so and Swype.apk to my desktop

-opened Droid Explorer

-went straight to the system/lib/ dragged and dropped libSwypeCore.so

-right clicked Swype.apk and clicked install

after that if some of you don't know

Settings>language and keyboard>check swype>uncheck android keyboard

and whallaaa
[G2 and Desire Z General] luis86dr:
Terminal commands are as follows. Place on your sd card

su

mount -o remount,rw /system

cat /sdcard/Swype.apk > /system/app/Swype.apk

cat /sdcard/libswypecore.so > /system/lib/libswypecore.so

For adb, place files in your sdk tools folder then do as follows

adb push swype.apk /system/app

adb push libswypescore.so /system/lib

adb install /system/app/Swype.apk

Hope this helps any questions.

[G2 and Desire Z General] waiting89:
It wont let me I get error on adb push libSwypeCore.so /system/lib

[G2 and Desire Z General] waiting89:
I try this but it still doesnt work... :/ idk what im doing wrong...
[G2 and Desire Z General] waiting89:
I was able to put the file libSwypeCore.so in the /system/lib by using a root on the same phone I first placed it on my SD n then I moved it from my SD to /system/lib, but I keep getting FC when I try to use it.
[G2 and Desire Z General] waiting89:
ok I got it to install everything perfectly, but now the only problem is when I use it it wont work as a swipe only as regular meaning i have to touch and lift touch and lift.
[G2 and Desire Z General] EuroSpeed:
I have this problem too.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Sv3nt3k:
Did you go into your keyboard settings and checked Swype and unchecked Android keyboard?
[G2 and Desire Z General] Sv3nt3k:
You need to exit the shell first before running any adb commands.
[G2 and Desire Z General] EuroSpeed:
I have this same problem. I checked Swype but there isnt an option to uncheck any other keyboard. Or I'm not seeing it, it should be next to swype correct? There's nothing to check or uncheck.
[G2 and Desire Z General] chewy106:
Longpress a text input box, and change the input method to Swype.

If it's not swyping and you get an error that the phone is unsupported (using SenseUI ROM, etc.), check my post a page or so back on updating build.prop to change the phone and brand to T-Mobile G2.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Brazildiogo732:
alright i figured out how to do everything else, but when i press back it says "save" and i press that, but the keyboard is still not working, and when i go back into editing the build.prop file, it still says "HTC Vision and htc_wwe" what do i do? and you open it with file editor, right?

when i press menu, it doesnt let me "save" any suggestionS?
[G2 and Desire Z General] chewy106:
I used Root Explorer. Go to system, click the R/W button to take it off of read-only, longpress the build.prop file and choose "Open in text Editor", make changes and save. You may have to reboot for the changes to take effect.

My guess is if the changes didn't take the system folder is still Read-Only with the editor you used?
[G2 and Desire Z General] EuroSpeed:
I used SU and what I did was made a copy of the original build.prop because the changes didn't want to stick for me either.

I took the copy and placed it on the sd card, then I edited what I needed and saved it.

Then I went to the original and renamed it just so I didn't have to delete it.

I then got the edited copy from the sd card and placed it where the original goes. I don't remember if I rebooted for the changes to take affect but its working now.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Brazildiogo732:
thanks guys! i did it! i got Root Explorer cus that program rocks! AND IT SAVED! But...swype is still not working and when i swype, it glows a blur border and doesnt work.. :/

woops! nevermind!! a nice reboot did the trick! :D thank you so much!!!
[G2 and Desire Z General] waiting89:
I also get this glowa a blur border and doesnt work.... what did u reboot? lke take out battery? Im using [ROM] Virtuous v0.6.1.

I reboot it and now I got this message, "The swype package you install is configured from another device and will operate with limited functionality. please contact swype about this issue."

and still gets getting the glow around the borders.

I saw i have to change some build.prop were is that file located?

NVM i found it!

I got it to work, even in root explorer it wasnt allowing me to read and write, so I adb shell

"mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system" then i edited the file n reboot n now works perfect!
[G2 and Desire Z General] jloescher2010:
I have the swype keyboard and the library file copied to system/lib but it don't let me select a language? There is no dictionary for swype. I have also updated the build.prop. Any suggestions?
[G2 and Desire Z General] imblacklife:
I had that problem on a sense rom...switched back to vanilla and it worked perfectly fine for me
[G2 and Desire Z General] rraxda:
Is Swype device specific? Is the Swype installed on a MTSlide the same as a G2?
[G2 and Desire Z General] epsilonsun:
I believe Swype is screen resolution dependent. So if the MTS has the same res as the G2 then I would imagine it would work. Otherwise you need that G2 apk and lib.
[G2 and Desire Z General] elusivebyte:
Regarding QuickOffice, it does not appear to be installed in CM6. There is no icon in the launcher, and a search for "quick" (sans quotes) in the global search did not list the app. However, I just clicked on a PDF in my file manager and it opened in QuickOffice. What's up with that?
[G2 and Desire Z General] trs999:
Swype on Sense

Thank you so much! This really did the trick I now have the Virtuous v0.6.1 Sense/DZ installed on my G2 with working Swype. Couldn't find an option for selecting the Swype keyboard so I ran the tutorial and it allowed me to select it. Although it seems like I had to select it re-run the tutorial and select it a second time before it stuck.

[G2 and Desire Z General] arxe41:
I have pushed the files using ADB, installed the .apk, and quickoffice is fine, but Swype doesn't show up as an "input method". It shows that is installed, but I can't use it. Any advice?
[G2 and Desire Z General] arxe41:
Forgive my stupidity, went into settings and enabled it under languages...
[G2 and Desire Z General] Sv3nt3k:
Just curious, but has anyone been able to force Swype to be the default keyboard? The Android keyboard is always defaulted whenever I have to reboot my phone.

should not be in dev forum

answer however is that no rom out for epic is aosp, if cyanogenmod get ported to the epic, that however is aosp, the eaisest way to tell is by the options in system menu> about phone.

aosp does not have options to update prl etc (kinda a minor issue with cdma phones and aosp)

1. battery live time are too short

2. mobile network is very slow...for example...i'm from germany her is the fastest mobile network hsdpa with 7,4 mbit/s but when i take a download from the market the speed is by 20 kbit/s or when i want to sync my emails...sometimes it work sometimes not...and so is it with the mobile connection too...

3. when i take calls is quiet or loud the sound...by a build is it to loud (volume is at minimum) and by another biuld is it too quiet (volume is at maximum)...and yes when I use the volume control it is also louder or quieter

can anyone explain me why is it so...especially for the mobile network...
