Hey madmack, I extracted the latest zip but I don't see an input folder to pull the framework.jar file into...do I need to create it?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] madmack:
get v0.813. it will have the input folder.

arabic input for madmack 2.0

dear madmack,

just flashed madmack rom 2.0 and I lost the arabic as an input language (I was using madmack 1.5 before)

tried the patching method in your blog but I got an error message:

"patching libandroid_runtime.so failed"

could you please help
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] madmack:
arabic is supported as read/write. you'll need to download an arabic keyboard from the market to write arabic.

I recommend smart keyboard pro.

my patcher will fail given that this rom is already patched.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] fhmutairi:
Thanks madmack for the advice.. I started using smart keyboard pro based on your recommendation, good keyboard.

Out of curiosity, when I was on madmack 1.5 rom, I had Arabic as an input language in my galaxy menu and I was able to use the Samsung native keyboard, why it is not the case when I upgraded to madmack 2.0?

excellent rom by the way.. loved the improvements.

Regards
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] madmack:
1.5 was based on a Middle Eastern release by Samsung. So it had full arabic support natively by the manufacturer.

1.6 and 2.0 are the latest european versions. As far as I know, 2.0 is based on the latest ROM that is released by samsung for the SGS2 (Android v2.3.5) which Middle Eastern ROMs don't have yet.

I only bring the latest with a minimum of read/write ability. Whether its a Middle Eastern, European or Asian ROM is up to Samsung I guess

Arabic support on Desire S

Hi all!

this solution unfortunately doesn't work for me! I have a HTC Desire S with 2.3.5 android, Sense 3.0.

I would pay for any app which solve the problem. I mainly need something for farsi (persian) letters (gmail, browser, ecc).

Thanks.

[Hero CDMA General] babygirl17_06:
I am having trouble with the Android Market force closing as soon as I open it. Last night I reinstalled CM 6.1 cause my phone became really buggy so I did it hoping it would work right again. Everything seems to be ok except the market. I cleared the data in settings but that did not help. Can someone please help me figure this out? Thanks in advance!
[Hero CDMA General] babygirl17_06:
Can't someone please help me? I have even reset the permissions using CWM and I even installed and reinstalled with it a zip file. After all that I still get FCs. I am out of ideas! Please help!!!

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Vintage144:
is there a text editor built into the phone somewhere? It would be real nice to be able to read files while in the phone itself , or do you have to be tied to the pc?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] the_Crispy:
You have word in the office hub. You may create new files but syncing with pc is not supported as far as I know. You have to send files from your pc to your phone via email.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
Advanced Explorer and TouchXplorer both offer full filesystem access and the ability to open any file for reading/editing in Word (although some files will be write-protected). This generally works fine for plain-text files.
[Off-topic] ayilm1:
Readers I present you the iTab. The iPad that Apple should have built. One that has processing power that doesn't make you gag and actually runs applications that aren't a joke. One that has the versatility of a regular laptop that can run every designated x86 OS without complaining including Android. It also possesses the ability to run Mac OS X legally thanks to the base machine being a stock MacBook.

It also has usb ports. Finally, you don't need a ridiculous plugin just to connect your camera. What's the hole at the top you ask? Is it a camera? Why yes it is. One that works seamlessly with iChat and FaceTime.

How about inputs? Well you'll be happy to know that this does in fact have a full onscreen QWERTY keyboard which is in actual fact the same size as the physical that's been removed. The touchscreen may not have the fancy pinch to zoom that the iPad holds dear but can you write on the iPad with a pen? no you cannot. The iTab supports full pen and touch input. The 1:1 display-digitizer pixel ratio means that you get a touch point assigned to every pixel on the screen. Resulting in crisp and fluid input while allowing for precision handwriting.

An inductive charging coil placed under the logic board allows for cordless freedom and continues to work even when iTab is angled. The MagSafe port remains accessible so you can leave your charging mat at home and use a standard plug-in charger at work.

All these great ideas bundled in an incredibly portable solution the size of a closed MacBook. The iTab. Everything the iPad never was, and more.
[Off-topic] MacaronyMax:
lol ;) Thats a macbook mod :p Anyidea if I could so one for a Macbook Air? xD
[Off-topic] avgjoegeek:
There is a website that does the conversion for you - its very expensive - and it's not running iOS but Mac OSX.

So although it does have all the ports and processing power in the world... it doesn't have what makes the iPad functional.

But.... I digress I wish Apple would put out a Tab like that with the iOS goodness in it.
[Off-topic] ayilm1:
Unlike the Modbook, this does pen and touch. What makes the iPad functional? My first guess would be the App Store. Apple has also released the OS X App store with 10.6.7 so once apps accumulate, it will be just as functional. Of course if you do argue that the app selection will never be as great, there is always Android x86. The latest test indicates that I get about 8 hours of use from Android.

Smooth multi tasking? The iPad freezes apps where as this is true multi tasking. Does pinch to zoom break the deal for you? The next addition I will place is two point recognition. The midpoint concept if you will whereby the system detects the midpoint once a second finger is placed. With proper extraction methods, it is indeed possible to simulate pinch to zoom. User experience can be a valid argument without a doubt but you must consider that you are compromising the functionality of an independent operating system for something that needs to be tethered to take advantage of its full functionality. The release of 10.7 will bring launchpad (iOS like UI) so if you REALLY wanted to, you can use that as your launcher.

Please do feel free to bring out other negatives because they are an excellent way of bringing improvements. OS X is after all not a lockdown operating system like iOS so I can do whatever I wish to do in Xcode to modify experience at drastic levels.

This mod cannot be done to the MBA and the unibody macs no. The internals of those machines are attached to the keyboard side and are accessed from the bottom. So removal of the top is not possible.
[Off-topic] idavid_:
wow, slow down. so this is like a macbook mod or something?

[Off-topic] xriderx66:
How would you make the touch screen work? Im sure just putting it on top wouldnt work
[Off-topic] ayilm1:
When I cut out the top cover, I was sure to keep the frame mounts intact. The frame was reversed with the screen so it was facing backwards. I elevated it with a few small washers so there was enough room for the 3M panel. The touch controller is soldered directly to internal usb.
[Off-topic] xriderx66:
Wow.

Did u read some kind of guide?

If not, your creativity and intelligence is above mine :)
[Off-topic] ayilm1:
Nope! I guess the design was influenced pretty much by the machine itself but thats more of a structural constraint.

[Off-topic] Erakul:
Could you tell me what touch panel exactly you used?

I want to convert a MBP from 2010 or 2011 into a Tab too, but I didn't find any touch panel that fits the screen sizes of 13.3 and 15.4 inch.

Also if you have any further advice or some problems you faced during your conversion I would really appreciate if you could share it :)
[Off-topic] ayilm1:
It was just an aftermarket touch layer from 3M. I believe the controller was eGalax touch based. I didn't really run into any problems. I pretty much winged the design. Though I suspect you will have a major problem performing this sort of conversion on any of the unibody models. The body is the frame onto which all the components are secured and the display housing is far to thin to mount a digitizer along with the screen. At least not without cutting out the keyboard region to make more room (provided that you have a mill to do a clean job of it). However the moment you do that, you won't have anything holding the motherboard in place since all the mounting points will be gone. The only foreseeable way would be to gut the machine completely and transfer everything to a new enclosure like Axiotron did with their ModBook Pro.
[Off-topic] Erakul:
Well I looked at their website but was not able to find any fitting configuration with the exact screen sizes. Maybe I am just to dumb to find it :(

I can take out the Trackpad and that should not make any problems. So I think there is enough space then to place the touch controller? Of course I could also try to pack all the stuff into another case, like of an older MBP model, but I'm not sure if the components would fit so ...
[Off-topic] ayilm1:
It's aftermarket. Check amazon, ebay or some other dodgy store.

That's not the problem. The digitizer is a least 4mm thick, immediately making it thicker than the display assembly. With the polycarbonate model, I simply lowered the display to accommodate for the digitiser. That's not possible here since there is nowhere to lower the panel to. Not without cutting out a 13.3" hole in the keyboard region.

Reusing the old case is a lot more trouble than it's worth. If you have experience casting plastic, you could create a blank by submerging the original body in silicon, pouring your new compound into the resulting mould and milling out the bits you don't need (The standoffs and keyboard frame etc).

The other (in my opinion easier) method would be to do a lost foam cast. This involves making the entire part you want out of craft foam and embedding it in a tank of sand. You will need to compact the sand to ensure there are no gaps remaining. A small hole is made in the sand that burrows down to the foam and this becomes the spout for the aluminium to be poured into. You can then take the old frame from the machine and smelt it down. In its liquid state, the aluminium is poured down the spout and replaces the foam. The resulting part will be an exact replica of what you made only now it's cast aluminium. The best part about lost foam casting is if you get it wrong, you can melt the aluminium down and try again.

[TG01 Themes and Apps] fxdjacentyfxd:
Hi.

I created some piece of software that stops/starts/restarts battery driver.

As some people know, there is 20% battery limitation on our tg01 and that is why some applications do not want to start ( Wi-Fi manager, GPRS connection, camera ...). As one of user detected, stopping battery driver "fix" certain of mentioned situations because asking for battery level they get.... tg01 connected to charger :) and battery level greater than 20%.

It is caused by the fact that coredll.dll returns such bad result ( has invalid handle to stopped/restarted battery driver and does not report errors ! ).

Applications that ask about battery level via coredll.dll may be cheated this way and fortunately Wi-Fi manager , GPRS connection, battery indicator in upper bar do it.

Other application that ask battery driver directly via IOCTL get correct value and this may be the way to create own battery meter to know battery level however.

I realize that FDC TaskMgr.exe has options to do the same but my software seems to be more simple to use and can be even more simple . In this versions it has two buttons that allow to stop/start/restart battery driver.

Feel free to test the programm and let me know about any bugs.

I would like to warn You that on some systems You can get message from devices.exe about crash ( typically when You press stop button ) but do not worry. If it happens , try always restart instead of stop. It is even preferable way to use the program because :

1) one can check real battery level . How ? I mentioned above

2) some applications have problem to start if they can not retrieve battery level. I mean about applications asking not coredll.dll but battery driver directly.

Regards

[TG01 Themes and Apps] albug68:
Powerful application!!!

If restart button re-initialize battery measure you could create an application that every 5-10 min make a battery service restart. So battery meter display a correct value and is not necessary phone restart.

PS. I use your rom fxdjROM1_5 from few days.
[TG01 Themes and Apps] fxdjacentyfxd:
Thanks. I hope You like this rom :)

If You use my rom this application is not needed and even should not be utilized !

You wrote:

"So battery meter display a correct value and is not necessary phone restart."

Is it Your suspection or real knowledge ? :) I was inspecting battery driver problems and unfortunately it seems that original battery driver restart, gives nothing ! ( I was doing it many times - stop, 1s delay, start and nothing changed. Still bad values )

I am amased this fact because if original battery driver controls battery charging hardware and D/A converter, so it seems to be natural that its restart should force new measauraments from hardware. One may suspect that there must exists any other source(s) of D/A data, outside of original battery driver and only system restart is able really "reset" it. Battery driver is in WM so called high device driver so it is possible it does not control hardware itself. Who controls it thus ? I do not know.

Regards

fxdjacentyfxd
[TG01 Themes and Apps] albug68:
Thank's for answer.

I developed many times ago a c# program to display %, Volts, Amper and other battery parameter using a power structure of Windows Mobile. I remember only % parameter worked on TG01. Both Volts and Amper always 0. Different on Acer E101 where I could measure %, Volts and Amper.

So I think the only reason why I can not measure voltage and current is that battery chip interface transmit only % to SO and that % measure algoritm (bad measure algoritm) is into the chip and can not be changed. So when we restart the phone the battery chip is resetted and the battery level is correct because the algoritm is re-initialized.

PS. sorry for my english. I hope you understand.
[TG01 Themes and Apps] fxdjacentyfxd:
I absolutely agree with You. It of course depends on hardware solution and this informations should be available but they are not retrieved ( by battery driver ? )

I rather doubt in it but who knows. I did not hear about such crappy ( strange behaving ) IC.

Take into account that we only see voltage decreases ( never seen voltage increase ) but increases are of course present in our phone. Current is able to change from 400mA to 100mA ( GSM connections ) and it must ( should ) give change of system battery gauge ( original Toshiba battery resistance is about 0.3 Ohm ) but it does not give ! Increases are only observable when we connect charger to tg01.

I share Your oppinion that any algorithm works bad but rather outside the chip.

If I knew hardware solution of our tg01 I could say more.

Regards

fxdjacentyfxd
[TG01 Themes and Apps] albug68:
Maybe algoritm is external but toshiba is able to build new custom chipset for own product only for reduce phone size.

I suspect battery chip with own firmware because it's suspect that i can't measure battery voltage

or toshiba don't want we manipulate battery management for some strange reason.

However little hint on your ROM.

I see that you lock general battery % measure to 26% and draw a little battery icon on start menù with real percentage but missing alarm battery down.

Is it possible add this alarm in the next ROM?

Regards

albug68
[TG01 Themes and Apps] fxdjacentyfxd:
I do not quite catch You :) .

Firstly - this read icon in upper bar or even 26% gauge "tells" user "battery 20% level has been achieved"

Secondly - as I know people do not want any annoying "law battery warning" or similar. You want it ?

[TG01 Themes and Apps] Pere:
Hi fxdjacentyfxd

I can understand that you want to maintain the control over your software and so you don't want to share your driver for free....

Nevertheless, could you please study a way to supply your driver to users interested in it, but using other ROMs? (I don't know, a kind of shareware with a period of free test and paying a fair cost for the continuous use....)

Of course that the best would be having it for free, but it depends only on you

Best regards
[TG01 Themes and Apps] fxdjacentyfxd:
Gentelmans, You will drive me to insane ;)

How many times I am write on the forum that my driver is not for cookers ( only my roms have it embeded ) but is absolutely free for all people who ask me about it because they want to have it in their roms. Ask Oly and others who recieved it from me. It is in form of personalized setup so it require 2-steps installations.

In first step user executes setup and get unique number which numer he gives me. I prepare special dat file and send it to him. This time setup will be completed and voila ! :).

Any asks on PM as I described already on the forum.

P.S. Pere, today evening new rom for You :D

[TG01 Themes and Apps] Pere:

[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] Tribulattifather:
Unfortunately, you may have bricked your phone.

Try this for me:

Press the stylus into the little hole in the left side of the phone to soft reset the device. Hold the camera button in while doing this.

Follow this video:

[YOUTUBE]jce5Pywil6U[/YOUTUBE]

It will explain how to do this at about 52 seconds into the video, so skip right to 0:52 and only watch until 1:27. So 0:52 to 1:27 - you really don't need any other of the information that he's telling you (by the way - thats not me in the video ;) )

After you do this, and you are able to get to the Red/Green/Blue/White screen run ONE of these exe files while on that screen while its plugged into the computer:

If your phone is a tmobile Wing (the Blue phone): http://www.mediafire.com/?yj1oz2m3mzm

If your phone is a htc herald: http://rapidshare.com/#!download|16..._4.17.405.2_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship.exe|56629

After downloading and running your .exe file you should be all set.

If you get this far and you still want to flash custom ROMs I'll guide you on how to do that and what is next. Post back to let me know what is going on.
