So I was reading that adblockplus has been ported to android, but the site I read it on had the source code, but no pre-compiled binary.
I'm without regular access to a computer for the forseeable future and was wondering if anyone might be able to compile the patch into a custom jf 1.31 update (rc30 variety please.)
Anyway, the website where I read about this is here:
http://www.gotontheinter.net/content/adblock-plus-ported-webkit
Thanks in advance, cheers guys!

I basically implemented the autorotating in a hacky fashion. When I do it "right" (by adding a menu item that gives you the option to turn it on and off), I'll ask JF to include it in his next update.
This is most excellent news. I'm expecting my ADP1 next week and I was dreading having to deal with ads once again (like in the olden days of the internets, before Adblock). Hopefully this port of Adblock will be available to us all soon.
How is one supposed to apply the .patch files? Am I supposed to apply them to the source of the Browser and then recompile?
Would that screw up my themes if I have an icon for the Browser?

You can install Droidsans, mount the file system rw, enabled auto rotate. Make the file system read only again, Reboot.
Uninstall Droidsans and you still have auto rotate with no application installed.

I'm not sure what you are trying to say. the droidsans auto rotate tool doesn't work with the browser. The browser is a special case and that's why a modified browser was released that has auto-rotate.
Are you saying that the modified browser with auto-rotate works with the droidsans auto rotate tool?
Meaning if I have the modified browser and use droidsans auto rotate tool to disable autorotate, the modified browser will have autorotate disabled?

as for the browser, download koush's auto rotate browser or steel....both auto rotate....
you dont need droidsans for the browser to autorotate if you have either of the above installed.
Any more news on this? I would dearly love to be able to block ads on my Dream, for several reasons. I do hate ads, but that's not the biggest problem. The problem is the small screen size and limited bandwidth on 3G. Ads are just no good on a phone browser.
There's a .patch file included in the updated blog post (http://www.gotontheinter.net/content/adblock-plus-ported-webkit) but I have no idea what to do with it, how to use it.
I really took Adblock Plus and NoScript for granted on Firefox.. I recently installed the Windows 7 Beta and the first 10 minutes were just unbelievable on the net. With every click I had two other windows popping up. Can't imagine the web without this.
Don't know about web on android. I only use it occasionally, usually Market, Maps or MSN. But it would definately be a more than welcome addition.
Has anyone figured out how to actually "apply the patch" yet?
I tried just installing it as normal but it failed.
Maybe the file has to be copied somewhere?

It's a git diff. Use git-apply to apply webkit-adblockplus.patch to your local copy of Android source and compile it.

Unfortunatly, some of us are on Windows and even if we have the source and apply the patches, we can't build it.
If anyone here is on OS X or Linux and can build the ssource and upload the .APK of it, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks,

Hi, I am the one who made this (the link in the first post just copied from my blog, http://vogue-android.blogspot.com). The patch is against cupcake's webkit, since that is what we are running on the HTC vogue. I suspect it won't apply against the pre-cupcake source, and binaries certainly won't work. Note it's not a change to the browser.apk, but rather the libwebcore.so. If you're already running cupcake on the g1 the patch should apply cleanly to the current HEAD in git. Otherwise, you'll need to wait for cupcake on the g1.

IM will probably make a reappearance in 5.0 and the multitouch is a 3rd party hack packaged with JF builds by JF himself so it may or may not make it into the build. Honestly, it was so choppy I never found it useful. Both of these questions have been posted in the Port thread. Please read it in it's entirety.
I PM'd jesusfreke about the multi-touch a few days ago, hopefully he'll lend us a hand in making that work, but I doubt he'll bother before the build is complete. Which leads me to your next question. IM will be fixed eventually, it just isn't a priority. For now get palringo from the market.
Edit: Beat me to the punch

The JF multitouch browser apk. wont run, just force closes on startup (I know I tried it). It's due to the fact that JF browser is compiled for a previous build, and therefore is incompatible with the "Cupcake" build. Someone correct me if Im wrong......

Even though IM does not work, Google Talk part of it does.

Does anyone know how to get dark keys application working on the 1.5 firmware (cupcake)
Is it something the app developer needs to do and if so does anyone know where i can reach him to ask
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=513772 go here for app <<
it has to be done on the developers side and if you download the program through market the go to its details and scroll down to email developer.
already sent an E-mail to the Dev asking for the source code. He said he was going to get it uploaded.
cheers
Thanks guys
any luck on getting it to works on 1.5 yet?
Someone needs to make a new version of this app. one that doesnt keep flicking on and off like dark keys does. would be nice if it just remembered whether it was on or off and stayed that way until changed.
whats the darks key?black key?
Would it be possible to have a uer option to have the backlight on or off based on the time of the day?
Hm, they disabled a lot of programs abilities to change settings like wifi/gps etc, dont know if this was one of those settings (REALLY hope not since you cant change it in android settings either).
Really need this app working for 1.5 :/

Anyone seen any updates on this anywhere? His webpage seems quiet as well. Thinking about looking into this myself, but it'd be a lot easier with his code.
Nobody saw the source? It is explicitely posted on google code..
Here is the link:
http://code.google.com/p/darkkeys/
Did not actually see that, but I dont think it's possible with 1.5 firmware, I looked into it a bit myself, trying to construct hardwareservice jar file for 1.5.
//edit, that is, not possible with the normal hardwareservice way, it'll still work fine on rooted phones.
Rename to darkkeys.apk and install normally. Works only on rooted phones for 1.5 unfortunatly, and it's only debug signed.
Upstream bug tracker here : http://code.google.com/p/darkkeys/issues/list?updated=2&ts=1241446083
This is a disaster for white G1s!
Do I really have to root my phone just to be able to see the keyboard? What are Google playing at?

I tried the official beta, as I'm a member, and a SGS version both on my G-Tablet and they install but wont open as the resolution is not supported. If there's a apk that does actually work. I'd love to just KNOW that. and I'll find it myself.
Thanks!
I tried using the swype from my epic but when I installed it and enable it it just FCs. I did use slideit but the keyboard took up most of the screen. Anybody else have any luck?
This is also something I am very interested in and have yet to get it to work.
I made the changes that rothnic suggested in the build.prop, loaded the lib, and dropped the ap in system/app and my tab doesn't see it at all. I've loaded a ' few' different versions on it that install but just fc. I've spent hours on it with no luck yet.
I'm not giving up hope for someone to release and update.zip but I'm not going to bother rothnic about it (anymore) as I'm sure he's working on roms and such. Even if he weren't, he's done more than his share here and I'm sure one of us will get it.
I'm still working it myself and if I make any progress I will surely let everyone know.
Just a reminder we can't post the .apk for swype here, as we don't want the thread pulled, again.

It sounds like you are doing something wrong when copying it over. It should come up under keyboards in settings. You would enable it there, then long press on an input box to switch to it.
I just did this a second time today and can confirm that it works.

yea, I was hoping that was the case but there can't be much that can go wrong. Download it or copy over via usb... then use root explorer to put it under system/app
For some reason I cant get ADB to work anymore? It had at one time. Do we know of any known issues with flashing that we loose the ability to ADB?
Oh well... I am a patient person and it's not like its a deal breaker for me. All is working pretty smoothly 3 weeks into the game.
Swype / ADB ... Progress / NO Progress
Ok, this is VERY interesting...
I still cant get swype to work. I FINALLY got to ADB push the .apk and the Lib and triple checked the build.prop (even used a couple different ones).
All I get is an FC over and over and when I got to settings-applications-manage, to clear cache, it's grayed out. I booted into recovery and cleared dalvik cache, wipe cache, and data. I have even gone as far as to re-flash the ZPAD 1.1, load gApps, Market Hack, Open GL Hack, and restart the whole swype process again with the same result.
HERE IS THE INTERESTING PART and we may want it posted elsewhere: I couldn't get my win7 to load the proper ADB driver (even though it had worked before). I found an app call ADBWireless (widget). It allows me to hit the widget and connect through ADB wirelessly (local wifi) and push/pull ect.
This was amazing and easy to use. Of course you have to have the Tab up so it wouldn't help for anyone who's in a loop.
When you hit the widget it shows the local ip address to connect to:
-I go to the command prompt \androidsdk\tools and type:
adb connect 192.xxx.xxx.xxx:5555
-it connects, and I am able to see the device
I have to use adb remount and then I'm good to go.
Hope this helps someone down the road. I'll keep checking back here but feel free to PM me if you have any questions (or find an update.zip for swype to work).
I made a little progress last night, got rid of the FCs but I can't get the keyboard enabled in the Settings. I managed to track down a Swype version from a Samsung Gaxlaxy Tab, at least that is what I think it is from, and then I had to find the necessary Lib file from somewhere else but when I push the .so to the Lib through ADB and install the Apk it seems like I'm closer, I can open the Swype settings screen and change things but I just can't get the keyboard enabled in the settings and then of course I can't pick the Swype keyboard when configuring the input method.
What changes were you making to the build.prop?

there was a 'header' so to speak that Rothnic posted that mad a few changes to the build.prop to make it look like portions of the Galaxy. He has it at the 'other' fourm.
Checked the permissions on the build.prop and they looked different. I couldn't just 'change' them in root explorer so I re-inserted the lines on the original build.prop, also did a fix permissions in CM (not that it helped).
Permissions in the lib file are hard to tell what they are supposed to be because several of the lib files there have different ones set. Swype.apk permissions look the same as the others. Still getting same FC's over and over. I was able to get into manage apps and hit force stop and clear (quickly tho) but goes back to the same after reboot.
Thanks for trying, as I said before, it's not a biggie. I just enjoy swype as being from palm and blackberry phone's if it weren't for swype I dunno that I would have kept an Android phone.
I can wait, I've spent too many hours jackin with it (although I did learn about the adb wireless and I am comfortable in pushing file that way now)
I managed to get it working although it is a little laggy. I followed rothnic's info in the other thread and after playing around with the build.prop file it is now working. Hopefully as the roms get faster this will get faster. Thanks for the help.

How did you do it? Can you be specific? Which version of Swype are you using? Where did you find it? What other thread?
Working on latest zpad rom. Had to set permissions - I think the important ones were r-x for User on both the lib and apk. And of course the build.prop edits.
-=Sent from my ViewSonic G Tablet using Tapatalk=-
I'm pretty sure the swype word is naughty here so I suggest you google for 'rothnic swype' and check the post on the other forum that comes up.
I used adb to push the modified build.prop to the sd card, along with the .so and .apk files. Then I used adb shell to copy the files to the locations rothnic specifies.

Btw I read on neowin about this tool deleting logins etc.
I think it has to delete browsing history or clear the cache in order to work. I dont think it will work without deleting one of those.
Let me know if you find a method to make it work without the need to delete browsing history and then ill add it to the other thread.

Yeah it will delete your stored login information.
I think i can get it to work without deleting the saved password information. I will be working on that this weekend along with a few more tweaks. I really just wanted to get it out there and have more people testing it.
If someone can confirm exactly what needs to be cleared I can adjust the settings in the script. Otherwise I will do my testing and find out.

Hey so I looked into it for you. I got it to work it wasn't to hard. So what is happening is the acutal video is hosted on another site so not only will you need to add slipstreamtv.com you will need to add the site that hosts the actual live TV. Now to find out the website that is hosting it all you have to do on a regular computer that has flash enabled you will need to right click where the video box is and click "settings" then click the little folder icon and it will show you the website where it is getting the stream from. I have posted pictures on how to do it.
However in this case it looks like slipstreamtv.com uses udemy.com but a lot one more website that I found by going through the HTML source of the website. I added the following site and it worked without an issue.
slipstreamtv.com
udemy.com
sawlive.tv

I have a question. Not to complain or anything. Why don't we set the required domain as "debug domain" in registry instead of messing with the white list? In my experience, using debug domain trick is much cleaner and it still allow the while list to get updated by Microsoft.

Hey, I choose to do it this way because I did not want to add a ton of strings into the Registry. I'd rather play around with the white list then with the registry. I will be updating the custom white list thats within the tool often so that it will be very much up to date as Microsoft and contain custom ones as well.

Hey so I looked into it for you. I got it to work it wasn't to hard. So what is happening is the acutal video is hosted on another site so not only will you need to add slipstreamtv.com you will need to add the site that hosts the actual live TV. Now to find out the website that is hosting it all you have to do on a regular computer that has flash enabled you will need to right click where the video box is and click "settings" then click the little folder icon and it will show you the website where it is getting the stream from. I have posted pictures on how to do it.
However in this case it looks like slipstreamtv.com uses udemy.com but a lot one more website that I found by going through the HTML source of the website. I added the following site and it worked without an issue.
slipstreamtv.com
udemy.com
sawlive.tv
Cheers,

Remember sometimes you may need to look at the HTML code on the source page.

Wow thanks a lot, that came in handy! :good:
Where did you get it from? I noticed it is in version 1.0.2 (see Settings > About), however latest version on CM GitHub (github.com/CyanogenMod/android_packages_apps_CMFileManager/tree/cm-11.0) only says 1.0.1 in its changelog... Did you extract it from a ROM? Any idea why this version (with actualised changelog) cannot be found anywhere on CM infrastructure (gerrit, github...)?

Extracting from a ROM is the quickest way and most ROMs have 1.0.2 in them.

You mean, compared to building from source ? This wasn't the reason why I was asking: I was just trying to find a definitive answer on "what's the latest version of this app", and official source code is always the best option to sort out such enquiry
It seems strange to me that most ROMs have an 1.0.2 version while CM repos don't seem to contain anything higher than 1.0.1 (by changelog comparison). So my question remains: where does that updated version come from?

You were probably looking at the cm-10.2 branch lol. The default branch of CyanogenMod/android_packages_apps_CMFileManager is cm-10.2 if you look here: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_packages_apps_CMFileManager/branches

I thought so at first, but if you look at this branch's CHANGELOG.md file, you'll see it hasn't been modified in two years and mentions the "1.0.1" version as the latest one. This is why I've precisely mentioned the branch URL in my first post, but because of my inability to post links you might have overlooked it Thanks for your investigations nonetheless!

Look in AndroidManifest.xml
Didn't see that you already mentioned you looked in cm-11 branch, they just haven't update the changelog but the app that gets compiled is 1.0.2.

Thanks, this one does indeed mention 1.0.2! However, where does the changelog entry in the app's "Settings > About" screen come from then?

Makes sense Is it a recurring part in any Android app (I'm no dev so pardon the naivety of my question(s))? Still, I believe think they could update that CHANGELOG.md file at some point, that would clear up some confusion...
Do you know of any other good free/libre file manager? Although this one quite pleased me when I discovered Cyanogenmod a few weeks ago (I'm pretty new to Android, just got my first droid phone last month), which is why I wanted to install it on my current OmniROM, it doesn't seem to be actively developed. I'm just wondering which features I could have a need for in the near future that this file manager doesn't offer... Thanks.
I normally use CM App Installer from the play store to get the file manager and the torch app

In this case it's raw text, but you can put images in there as well (any files in fact). Files in res/raw won't be processed/compiled, it'll just be added to the package.
For example, in CMFileManager the changelog (excerpt):
Code:
Version 1.0.2
-------------------
* move bookmarks and history into a navigation drawer (by Florian Edelmann)
If you wanted to use that in strings.xml you would have to put them in <string> tags:
Code:
<string name="changelog">Version 1.0.2
-------------------
* move bookmarks and history into a navigation drawer (by Florian Edelmann)
</string>
(For those reading this in Tapatalk, you can't see the xml tags since it handles it differently)
In some cases it can cause issues, and it's sometimes it's better not to clog up strings.xml with a large amount of text (like this changelog). Also easier to modify in some cases (again, like a changelog).
I use Root Explorer, but it's a paid app. There's a free version but afaik it can't modify files which need root access.

Nice, thanks for the tip this looks interesting! However, as the author says in the app description he builds them himself when he has time to do so. Therefore pulling them from a current nightly or latest M release (as Lethargy mentioned) seems to be as good (and that is one less person to rely upon). I also wanted to replace omniROM's Launcher3 by CM's Trebuchet, so I'll have a go at it (thanks to MultiROM ).

Thanks for your explanations, I better understand now.
Concerning the file manager, I'm looking specifically for free/libre software app (as in "open source", but I don't like this expression and prefer to stick to Richard Stallman's definition). A search in F-Droid didn't turn in that many results, so that's why I was asking "at large"... I know many apps on the Play Store are libre software, but because the store doesn't mention their license it gets pretty tricky to find them. I try to always favour free/libre apps when I can.

If you ever want anything explained feel free to ask me in a PM
I'm not too sure of any others then. :silly: I'd just stick to CM File Manager if you specifically want a decent one that's open source. I just prefer Root Explorer over CM File Manager since it's a little better for root file management and it can access SMB (so I can access files on my PC without bothering to plug in my USB cable so often).
Maybe look around XDA for one.

Sure, will do. Thanks for the very amicable offer, I must admit I often find myself quite lost within the Android realm

Makes sense. Well for now I'm indeed fine with CMFM, and I've found a few alternatives thanks to http://alternativeto.net/software/open-manager/?license=opensource&platform=android (still can't post links sorry okay, now it looks like I can, that's nice). XDA forums are such a great resource for anything mobile/telephony related! It is rare that a single website gathers the biggest part of a development community. So great.
Anyway, thanks for your replies!
Does it work on Lollipop?
