[How To] Haykuro H build virtual keyboard on G build - G1 Android Development

Hey guys, for anyone that is using Haykuro's G build but likes the virtual keyboard from the H build better, it is a simple matter to install it.
1. Grab the file HTC_CIME.apk from the /system/app folder of the H build
2. I installed it using adb by placing the HTC_CIME.apk in the folder I always use for adb stuff (in my case c:\\android) and then using the commands:
Code:
adb remount
adb install HTC_CIME.apk
Then wait until it says "success"
(I think you could probably install it by copying it to your sd card and then using a file manager like Linda or Astro to browse to it and install that way, but I haven't actually tried that...anyone want to try it and let me know if it works?)
3. Go to "settings", then "locale & text", deselect the box next to "Android keyboard" and select the box next to "TouchInput Chinese"
Once installed, it seems to be a fairly large program (application manager lists it at just over 6 mb), but if you have apps to sdcard like I do, that is not a problem!
Let me know if anything here is unclear or if anyone experiences anything different!

Installed using AppsInstaller. Works perfectly! Now how about that Video Recorder on the H build?

Can anyone confirm the G VK works on the H build?
The H VK is way too bulky and takes up too much of the screen for my liking.

I've installed a google VK on H build, I havn't use G build ever, so I don't know if it is the VK in G. It's black, and then H build VK is white.
The black VK works with no problem on H build.

how to get G VK to H build?

I tried to push Latin_IME.apk to /system/app but it didn't work. Got error "The application Android keyboard (process com.android.inputmethod.latin) has stopped unexpectedly." I tried adb install Latin_IME.apk and got the same error. Any help?

Is it Latin_IME.apk? I keep getting an error

nm, i did something wrong on my own end...I believe at least...or you should just really ADB install it and not install the apk like usual.

I've tried G build yestoday, I found which I installed on H is not the VK in G build.It's name is PinyinIME.apk, not LatinIME.apk.
You can use adb to install Latinime.apk, and you may also need push /system/libjni_latinime.so into the H build.

Can we confirm the G build VK was successfully pushed to H build? If so, what version of each. This has been asked in other threads and everyone seems unsuccessful. I'm surprised to find someone pulled it off in here. Please confirm.
Thanks

I see it says Chinese input, but is it in english or really in Chinese

Wow! works beautifully! I used ApkInstaller and it works great! Now, I have the best of both worlds... The G build with the H VK!
I just wish I could get rid of that Chinese character key at the bottom. No offense to the Chinese... But, I don't speak/read Chinese and it causes a force close if I hit it by accident.
So HAPPY!... LOL
@kylebrodeur - it says Chinese b/c it has some options for the Chinese language. Just don't press the button I spoke of in this post and everything works like a charm... in English. The belief is that the HTC build was made for release in China. That would explain it being designated as a ChineseInput.

Awesome...I'll give it a try and report back after I've tested.

Is there a way to move the H build black text message app to G, is it a .apk file or something as easy as the H build VK was to move ?

i moved both of those .so files into system/lib and have tried to load the G build vk and still force closes on me

Yes, the G build VK can be successfully pushed to H build. It's explained in funbacon's thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=507244&page=30.

haykuro H build VK on G build?

Haykuro said he posted in these forums how it can be done, but i've searched all over and can't find it. Does anyone know how to put the H build VK on a G build? He said he was working on a release, but he signed off google talk haha.... um... so yeah, how can i do this using ADB? its like adb push clicker.apk /(somethimg)/app
HELP!
i'm testing doing this with the dialer and the camera too.
I also got the H build music widget by deleting the G music.apk and pushign the h build music.apk
i'm testing doing this with the dialer and the camera too.
EDIT: dialer cannot be changed...

That's a bummer. Well, if we can still get the Music widget, VK, and Camera. We'd be all set.
Anyone else give it a whirl?

The stock apps are in /system/app . That one is there as "Clicker.apk".
Anyone wanna try the Tweeter game as well? I exported that on mine. Could always upload it.
I also want to try to get the app drawer background lol. But the VK for sure works as does the music, im using both right now. im goign to try to replace the launcher.apk now to see what happens but i like g build icons better...
switching the Launcher.apk doesn't work either.

Out of curiousity, on the dialer, did you try doing the contacts as well? I think those are tied in (judging by how the Contacts.apk is what needs to be edited on the H to get rid of the Chinese).
Thats the only file that i tried was Contacts.apk
I might just install the H build sinc eit has everything as G build now... haha. But i don't want to havw to reinstall 100 apps...

As for reinstalling apps. There's a script that someone posted to do that automatically.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3560220&postcount=1307
The only thing missing on the H build is the transition bounce (for when rotating) and I have no clue what file that would be in. I rather liked that
For the music gadget, did you copy the Music.apk? I wanna try and pull the Calendar one from the Google build.

yeah u might be able to pull the calender, all i did was move musick.apk. but haykuro told me the h and g use diffrent databases so calender may not work, thats why phone.apk and contacts.apk cause a crash. the info is stored ina diffrent format or sumthing.
Can someone please explain to me how to use the h vk? I pushed it to /system/app but its still loading the g VK

I actually would like G VK in my H build (don't ask....), would love google's dialer as well. Can anyone post steps to accomplish G VK on H build (and may be files needed if you're nice enough). I'll pull it out myself in few days, just don't have time right now but I'm dying to have that VK
I'm not responsible if you screw it up. If you are scared and don't know much, search some threads or even google, before you try below method. * Always have your backup (nandroid).
To use H/G apk in G/H build
you can copy the apk file in the tools folder inside the android dev folder. You should be able to download it from google site.
Once you have in the tools folder, this is the command that you would use in your terminal program.
you need to delete the original browser.apk from /system/app
adb remount
adb push browser.apk /system/app
I personally like the mms.apk from the H build, due to the black background and white fonts, but unfortunately, it cannot be used within G build. It force closes.
H build mail.apk force closes as well on G build.
H build camera.apk doesn't show at all on G build.
H build Teeter game works in G build.
H build Music.apk works, however when you try to scroll by showing the alphabet, it's messed up. The music widget is changed to the H build.
PDFViewer.apk, it does not work from the H to G build. If someone has it working from previous G build, please upload it?
I have not tried other apps.
hate the google VK, love the H vk....
if someone posts a G build with H vk..that'd be awesome... and easy on us noobs

Porting H dialer to 1.5 is it possible?

i've tried to search for it but can't find anything if anyone has been able to port over the dialer from H over to 1.5, or if its even possible to do it.

God i hope so. The google dialer doesn't recognized my contacts that have pauses inserted, and the htc is way easier to navigate to a contact.
has anyone tried pushing:
TelephonyProvider.apk
Contacts.apk
Phone.apk
to the G build from H?
I have tried pushing TelephonyProvider.apk, Contacts.apk and Phone.apk to the official 1.5 build and that did not work. I got stuck in a loop of "Contacts" force closing all the time, regardless of me trying to use the app.
did u remove the stock contacts and contacts data storage before u pushed?

you could do it from the recovery terminal fresh after a wipe....
could someone explain a little more where the contacts data is stored? and how to clear it out, like the commands for it

Honestly...no clue. lol. I just know that in the HTC build it was different than the Google build of Haykuro 5.0 so I assumed you had to swap them out or something.

Well if anyone has directions spill em.
i shoulda been more clear. I haven't done this but if your phone was just wiped the stock contacts and contacts data storage should be absent. It was just a suggestion since we don't know where they are stored. alt-w, alt-x then cp the original files to your sd for backup and replace them with the ones for the H build. there won't be any contact data and you could reverse it easy enough if something goes wrong.
if you've already pushed the files to system, then there's no need to copy them again. wipe only formats the data (and cache) partition, it doesn't touch system.
also, all java-based android program store their data in /data/data/<app class name>.

Nope...I think it's going to need attention from a true dev like JF, Haykuro, or Dude...none of them have seemed too interested in addressing these needs. (not that they are expected to!!!)
Would just be nice to know if its doable or not.
What we are trying is copying the 3 apps contacts, phone, & telephony provider but what i think is there is 1 difference in G & H builds,
H builds contains some additional framework stuffs & G builds dont,
& Also There are some extra or different number of libraries which are there in G & Not in H (Vice versa)
Has anyone tried to backup the dex & the classes file while on H build , Then flash G build & replace the Gbuild Files With the Backuped H build Files...
If anyone tries would be a good shot for it Please try doing so... & Post ur results...
I dont wana wipe my phone currently so I am Not trying It as it contains some IMPORTANT SMS
Please try N post ur results....
Thanks In Advance
I'll maybe give it a shot later. Don't have anything useful yet, and the Smart Dialer from the H-build is so handy!
so why dont people just stick with the HTC build?

Q&A
Q: Why was facebook removed??
A: it caused to many issues, and the market one works fine.
Q: What is the latest changes??
A: I removed the build.prop file completely in hopes that it will work without it, did for me... you tell me
Q: What took so long?!?!
A: I had H1N1, b|0W me.
Q: Does this work with AOSP?
A: doesn't look like it, at least not so far, I did adjust some build props right from them but never got any feedback to let it out to the masses.
Q: Does this break CM-Updater?
A: No, it shouldn't.
Q: Do i need to reflash this every time?
A: if you want navigation, yes. Every update reverts the build props back to the old ones.
Q: Does this work outside of the USA?
A: Yes. BUT BUT BUT BUT BUT BUT BUT BUT BUT YOU MUST FOLLOW THESE DIRECTIONS EXACTLY!
1. First navigate between 2 USA addresses (just enter them in to get the navigate option to show up)
2. Make a shortcut on your home screen with the address you want to navigate to.
3. Make sure turn by turn is checked.
4 click it nub.
5. drive to the location
6. brag "o mai android is wai b3tt3r thian UR ip0ne."
7. hope to god it brings you back home, otherwise buy a map.
If your paid apps are not working, either wait until midnight, for caches to clear, or flash from scratch...
IE: recovery - rooted cyano - Cyano update - navi update
(p.s not responsible if you drive over a bridge following the GPS, that's stupidity)
(p.p.s don't brick your shaz and blame me or anyone else for that matter, you blew it)

New maps but no navigation
I would be careful with this app. Sure it's nice to have it running on your Magic, but remember when Cyanogen relased his ROMs with Google apps included?
Pulling this Google Maps from any other ROM is in clear violation of the license.
I'd prefer that our community stay legal and not attract any negative attention.

good point, but it seems to me that Cyanogen is the only one that is following that rule. Dwang and Amon_Ra have stock ROM's that include the google apps as well, but they don't get any legal action taken against them, but I don't know why this new rule only applies to Cyanogen and not everyone else. All the Hero ROM's also include Google apps as well. It seems that the violation of the license has only affected Cyanogen and it seems unfair to me.
agreed. and if i get one it comes down, thats just life
No service No Maps
I've got a Rogers 32a Sapphire running RAv1.6.2. After installing the update I had No Service, APN setting were Blank and the maps app had a new icon and it Forced closed when opened every time. I did try clearing the maps cache and restarting the phone, but it didn't help.
I made a back up before installing the update, so its all back to normal now. Have any suggestions on what went wrong or anything else i can try to get it working??

the only way it won't is if i mis-edited the build.trout.prop
but we'll know in a bit!!

will test as soon as my slow internet loads
how exactly does this one work? meaning what exactly does it change? does it still affect the build.prop and build.trout.prop, or will it work on its on?

unfortunatley yes, it still edits the buildprops and what not....
it should work on anything 1.6+ by anyone.....

I had the exact same problem, I just pushed the old build.prop and build.trout.prop back to my phone and reboot and now handcent shows the right info and navigate is still there. Here's to hoping it stays!

working on it now
alright i see the prob i think. as far as build props anyway. the only thing that needs to be changed is this line
ro.build.fingerprint=verizon/voles/sholes/sholes:2.0/ESD20/17572:user/ota-rel-keys,release-keys
the rest can stay the same.
this should play nice with other apps, and allow the new facebook as well.
edit: in this line would need to be modded in build.trout.prop for the dream and build.sapphire.prop for the sapphire
also note that you can mod the line in both and leave them in the update. cyan's roms use all 3 build props. but reads from the trout or sapphire depending on which phone it is installed on, since his roms can work on both.
working great on my wifes G1

[Q] Installing Android on Polaris for dummies!

Dears,
This is my very first post here.
I stopped using my Polaris since a long time, until I heard that I can install Android on it.
I installed Android 1.6 and it works fine so far.
Now I want to install Android 2.1 or 2.2
Can someone guide me with very simple steps to install the latest and most stable version of Android available for my phone?
Thank you very much!

Thank you for the links.
I followed everything word by word.
The only problem I have now is that the screen turns black when I reset the system after updating the NBH.
I have a Polaris 100 so I selected 320 x 240.
I am sure the system is installing but I cant see anything!
Any suggestions?
Thanks again!
NVM!
I changed the panel type to 1 instead of 3 and now I can see the system installing.
Thanks!
