Hey everyone!

Didn't find thread anywhere about this (just a lot of mentions in other threads).

Problem is:

Any exotic DZ (Asian and Scandinavian reported) does not work properly without Sense.

Capacitive buttons vibrate normally when pressed but no action whatsoever. (not in the apps neither in launcher).

ROM's reported to have this problem (as far as I know):

HTC Vision stock (by Modaco) (I can confirm)

CM RC 6.1

And generally speaking any ROM without sense.

Could we gather all these problems here, with mention what version of DZ and which ROM?

Also if someone knows a way to get them working it would be appreciated to post it here so everyone would know.

UPDATE:

with more research I found this in VillainROM topic:

redglasses designed some help:

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=Z13DE4QE

(link contains update-vision-keypad-for-desirez.zip)

LINK to the thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=9353194#post9353194

(says that it is designed to work with CM)

Any one know more, does this work with any ROM?

UPDATE1:

The update-vision-keypad-for-desirez-signed.zip is compatible with any ROM! (thanks to redglasse for it)

This came to be pretty obvious after opening it and checking what it does :)

So just flash it after your new rom.

UPDATE2:

It really does not have anything to do with Sense. Only that the right keymap and keychar files are only shipped in roms with Sense!

(Asia and special European countries get only Sense versions)

Link to files pulled from Finnish (Scandinavian keymap) DZ:

DO NOT FLASH THE FILE BELOW, IT IS NOT IN FLASHABLE FORMAT!

http://www.filedropper.com/keyfilesfromscandidz

(I think that Redglasses is missing some keymaps, so every one of them is in the link above)

UPDATE 3

Seems to me that there is still problem that special Scandinavian characters type as CAPITALIZED every time. Is there any one out there that has some knowledge about them?

With Hexedit I can't locate the chars at keychar files. But in keylayout files they are named as func_number. So I presume that even when they are binded as some special characters they still work via some functions? Could anyone look into this or have some knowledge where those functions are?

UPDATE 4

Hey all!

HOW TO FIX YOUR CAP BUTTONS AND KEYLAYOUTS + CAPITALIZED SCANDIS!!!

In theory should work in every ROM.

1. Perform NANDROID backup! (I'm not responsible for any damaged devices etc blah blah...)

2. Download this fix from redglasses http://www.megaupload.com/?d=Z13DE4QE

3. Apply it from clockwork recovery

4. If you have capitalized Scandinavian keys!!! Download this file modded by me:

http://www.filedropper.com/vision-keypad-norkcm

5. Connect your device with usb debugging on

6. type this to cmd prompt:

adb remount
adb push \(PATH TO DOWNLOADED FILE HERE) /system/usr/keychars/vision-keypad-nor.kcm.bin

7. reboot your device to remount system as it should be :)

8. profit

Thanks to Redglasses for the original fix, I would appreciate if someone backed my fixed vision-keypad-nor.kcm.bin into his update.zip :)

****LINK FIXED!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] DanWilson:
If the buttons vibrate, they are being picked up.

Can you do an 'adb logcat' and show what it says.

This should help the devs. And give me something to read.

All you need to do is plug your phone in, open a command prompt (have adb working) and type 'adb logcat'. Press a button, wait for a reaction and press CTRL-C (on the PC). Copy / Paste the log into a post. The shorter the better. ;)

EDIT - that zip could be flashed on any ROM. Make a nandroid first though.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] AnyDone:
I guess that there is no need for logcat. Just that the roms missed the files in ZIP. Keymap and Keychar files in fact. I could post all of them somewhere (zip seemed to miss one or two keymaps).

This is just a bit specific issue, to my knowledge this is 2nd QWERTY Android phone getting worldwide attention, so community is not aware of the fact that all the roms need bit of a "compatibility" to include every phone.

So I got it working with that ZIP and G2 rom. (almost)

I just left wondering when the device chooses the keymap and keychar to use? Is it on the first boot up after the flash or every boot up? So if I make any changes are they applied in every boot up?

Anyways these should be bakes in to ROMS.

And why I said that it works almost is that my Å Ö Ä buttons always type with CAPITALS. No matter if i press shift or no. And I still can chose the special letters from a or o with long press and touchscreen. So is it problem with these files or somewhere else?

I'll upload my own files pushed from Scandinavian DZ when I find some free host :P

So in this link U can find the files pulled from my own DZ sense rom before any hassle:

http://www.filedropper.com/keyfilesfromscandidz
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] AnyDone:
As I stated in the update it is due the versions of the roms, not really the sense itself. (the ROMs that include every keymap also include Sense :))
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] AnyDone:
Instead of Scandinavian/UK just put every one of the files. They are 1Kb each and in total like 22Kb. See previous posts for a link to d/l my files :)

Yeah, seems to me that would be the case. (I'm almost 100% sure about that) Just make everyone use them!!!!

And make a guide/wiki article or something to be found via google by noobs like me :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kenned88:
i flashed Modaco Stock Rom from G2 on my danish Desire Z and then flashed the keyfilesscandz file but where can i set the keymap ? it doesnt seem to work for me. i tried under settings > language and keyboard > Device keyboard but i couldnt choose any layout.. every time i have to go back in the settings ill need to reboot the phone :S
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kenned88:
Okay i got i working by installing the first zip..
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] AnyDone:
Yeah, the second zip is no flash, I'll make a point to it at first post.

I just took them out because redglasses zip seemed to miss some so if ayone wanted to push my files into same zip.

Btw is there anyone out here who could help / knew why all the special chars in Scandinavian keyboard are capitalized?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] AnyDone:
See 1. post to know how to fix the capitalized Scandis :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kenned88:
sorry but the links doesnt work.. in update 4 :(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] AnyDone:
Should work now :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kenned88:
Thank you mate.. It works perfect :) it didnt work for me the first time i dont know if it was because i rebooted the phone with the powerbutton.. But second time i did it with adb and now it works.. this is amazing.. Thanks a lot. :) :D

I tried flashing this with CM7 build6, yet my buttons do not work even after doing this. This is on Gingerbread. Should I try flashing again?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lassegs:
Same problem as you ilifin. Flashed, but when pushing the capacative buttons the phone doesnt even vibrate.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] arashi:
All works for me if I mount /system in clockwork recovery before installing this patch. Some kind guy told that in one of parallel threads (:

Hi,

can anybody extract and/or provide the connection setup cab from htc rom? Im right using the actual vodafone rom where connection settings are missing for my provider (o2 Germany)

Thanks in advance

Tom
[HD Mini General] The_Two:
Hi,

o2 has a service that allows you to send a SMS with the connection preferences.

You have to log in at the o2 website and go to help.

Rund um Ihr Handy ->Handyeinstellungen -> Automatische Einstellungen:

There is an option "Ihr Handy für die O2 Services automatisch einstellen", where you can insert your mobile number.

I hope this helps.

[HD Mini General] tommatt:
Thanks,

but doesn't work...

Answer "Ihre Anfrage konnte nicht bearbeitet werden..."

Tom
[HD Mini General] The_Two:
Hi,

I do not know how to extract the cab.

In this forum are some "HTC Connection Setup CABs" mainly for cooking ROMs.

Have you tried one of these?

The_Two
[HD Mini General] Myth_GR:
You can extract cab files with winrar.

Thanks.

I know it sounds daft but tried restarting your router, dose not sound like a fault with ur phone? If that dose not work try going to wireless settings and long tap on your router and select forget network then try re connecting?

Pretty sure you will need a stock 2.1 rom before you can get the Froyo OTA update once it is released.

An incomplete list of Galaxy S devices:

CDMA Tab

GSM Tab

Fascinate

Captivate

Epic 4G

The dual screen thingie

International I9000

MID

Nexus S

and I'm sure I'm forgetting another half dozen devices. These things are running everything from 2.1 to 2.2 to 2.3, and they have a special 2.2 for tablets.

Samsung brought out more devices in the past few months than all the android devices combined of most other companies. More than Motorola, more than LG, probably about as many as HTC.

If they are planning on doing it all over again with Orion, I certainly hope they don't leave us all hanging while they work out their new line of devices. Not only do we not have froyo yet, they haven't even fixed the friggen GPS.

I freshly flashed 2.2 cognition. I know I can do this through wireless ap, but don't have the funds to buy a wireless adapter.

I'm wondering if it possible to tether using usb? One more thing that will be a even BIGGER help, but not sure if the phone will allow it, is to do this tether using an existing wifi here so I don't have to use my limited data plan. I know it would be easier to move the xbox to the router, but unfortunately I'm not at my own place and don't want to deal with the constant bickering.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mtrsttr:
If I'm understanding you correctly, you want to tether your phone to your xbox and then have it connected to a wireless lan? Android has an option somewhere in the settings for USB tethering,but I have not messed with it since I had 2.1 stock. From what I remember. I had to install kies to my computer to be able to do usb tether. I'm fairly doubtful it would work with an xbox.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zyryck:
Hi, I would like to know if it's possible to change the LCD Density but without shrinking apps or dialer ect...

Because the original density 240 is a bit too big for me, I found out that 200 would be a very good compromise but when it is set to 200 my dialer shrinks and other apps like for example Besttube shrinks also.

So basically I'd like the overall to be 200 (The system actually meanings the drawer ect... ) but apps and co to stay 240 ( or to be 200 but without shrinking ).

I've been searching and I saw some people were using 180 density ect... but it is according to me not worth it when some apps shrink...

[G Tablet General] rushless:
I just go it working yesterday with TnT Lite 1.03, but it will not work with TnT 2.0. Mega, mega bummer.

It worked fine all day after installing the wifi tether app and tested several times after reboots of the Incredible and the Gtablet.

Same as before I got it working. Does not see the Incredible.

UPDATE:

Installed another version from the wifitether site (Incredible 2.1 version). It connects, but not consistently.

Not sure what the issue is. I do notice that when it does connect a "Wireless Tether - AC disabled" pops up in notifications. If that does not pop up in notifications, no connection.
[G Tablet General] 3pod:
TnT 2.0 works with my wifi tether on EVO.

Wifi Tether v. 2.0.5-pre11.
[G Tablet General] edgevision:
I think it has to do with the fact that Android in general has an issue with tethering to devices that broadcast in ad-hoc mode instead of infrastructure mode.

For example, using Wifi Tether for Root Users app from market, my Galaxy S cannot be seen by the G Tablet. Neither can my Hero. Because this app (according to its documentation @ google code) uses ad-hoc mode only. (see here: http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/issues/detail?id=11)

But when I use the Samsung built-in "Mobile AP" checkbox (it's in settings on the Galaxy S), it works perfectly; the G Tablet sees the phone and all is well. Because it uses infrastructure mode.
[G Tablet General] Crimton:
i'm gonna upgrade to 2.0 tonight. i'll let you know if mine still works.
[G Tablet General] switt:
Check your device specific version of Wifi Tether. Evo has an infrastructure mode.
[G Tablet General] NiN39Z:
How did u get this to work? I have an evo with the same wifi tether version and it still doesnt work for me.
[G Tablet General] 3pod:
I haven't done anything special. The settings are pretty as is when I installed it.

Have you checked to see if you can connect another device to the Evo first?

Here are my settings:

wifi encryption enabled

changed the passphrase

changed the ssid

Access Control is enabled

This is all about the infrastucture mode. I would recommend trying to find the mobileAP app/mod for your phones.

Trouble Connecting G Tab with Original Motorola Droid

I have tried everything I have read to tether my G Tablet to my original Motorola Droid. So far I have been unsuccessful. I am still running the original firmware with Tap N Tap, but I am also running Launcher Pro. I have rooted both the G Tablet and my Droid. I have tried Barnacle Wifi Tether and Wireless Tether. I also installed Update 2967 that was pushed to my tablet on 22-Nov. Could that have messed me up? Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
[G Tablet General] 3pod:
have you tried the two independently of one another? meaning, have you made sure the gtab is able to connect to a regular old wifi ap? have you checked other devices tethered to your droid?

I don't think the update would have / should have messed up your gtab's ability to connect to a wifi point.
[G Tablet General] tnt2gamer:
My iPod touch works well with Barnacle on my Droid. Also, my G Tablet works well with both my Netgear Wirless G and D-Link Wireless N routers.

UPDATE: I realized last night that my files were not being overwritten with the modified ones, even though I was telling Root Explorer to replace the existing ones. I will delete the old wpa_supplicant.conf file before copying the modified version next time, to see if it makes a difference. Right now I am restoring everything that I had on the GTab little by little after frying my wifi settings last night. I couldn't get it working, so I did a factory reset and lost everything.

ANOTHER UPDATE: Yep. That was my problem. My modified wpa_supplicant.conf file was not replacing the original one. Once I deleted the old one manually, and copied the modified one in its place, it worked. I can now tether to my original Motorola Droid. I am using a program called AdhocAble to switch easily between two different wpa_supplicant.conf files (one for adhoc, and another for infrastructure).
