Hero_Over ROM HTC_IME fix - myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development

Hi guys!
Anybody that is using that Rom will find out that in some apps (nostly shell ones), the keyboard doesnt work properly.
As i asked in the thread, and didn't get an answer, i tried myself and found a solution:
adb remount
adb shell rm /system/app/HTC_IME.apk
adb push LatinIME.apk /system/app/HTC_IME.apk
adb shell reboot
The functioning HTC_IME.apk can be found here:
http://www.mediafire.com/?eulugzggnm0
Hope i could help a bit, as the Community helped me getting a real cool phone

I tried this and it messed up the keyboard. I had to re-flash. Is this supposed to fix not having predictive text in sms? Cause that's my problem. Other than that the rom is flawless.

so did anyone else try this?
i love the hero_over rom but i want my predictive text back. otherwise the best rom i have used thus far.

Installing Chinese Input on JFv1.50 ADP1.5

Source: http://www.sofee.cn/blog/2009/05/01/214/
I figured some of you may be hankering to switch from haykuro's ADP1.5Hr3 to jesusfreke's JFv1.50 ADP1.5, but miss HTC's perfectly working Chinese Input on haykuro's ADP build. Simply installing HTC_CIME.apk gives issues when changing the Chinese input methods to anything other than Handwriting, such as PinYin. This is because you need the dependent libraries in addition to HTC_CIME.apk!
Here's how to do it:
1. Download HTC_CIME.apk and the dependent libraries at http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=fd121d39fa751465c2b435915e8821d7e04e75f6e8ebb871
2. Extract to a folder somewhere
3. Run the following adb code in a command window opened at the directory where the files were extracted:
Code:
adb remount
adb push lib/libcimet9.so /system/lib/libcimet9.so
adb push lib/libimezi.so /system/lib/libimezi.so
adb push lib/libpphwr.so /system/lib/libpphwr.so
adb push lib/zi/Zi8DatPYP_CN.z8d /system/lib/zi/Zi8DatPYP_CN.z8d
adb push lib/zi/Zi8DatPYS_CN.z8d /system/lib/zi/Zi8DatPYS_CN.z8d
adb push lib/zi/Zi8DatZHA_CN.z8d /system/lib/zi/Zi8DatZHA_CN.z8d
adb push lib/zi/Zi8DatZHA_HK.z8d /system/lib/zi/Zi8DatZHA_HK.z8d
adb push lib/zi/Zi8DatZHA_TW.z8d /system/lib/zi/Zi8DatZHA_TW.z8d
adb push lib/zi/Zi8DatZYP_TW.z8d /system/lib/zi/Zi8DatZYP_TW.z8d
adb push lib/zi/Zi8DatZYS_TW.z8d /system/lib/zi/Zi8DatZYS_TW.z8d
adb install HTC_CIME.apk
4. Go to Settings > Locale & text > Check 'TouchInput Chinese'
5. ???
6. PROFIT!!!
Awesome tip. Thanks for sharing.
God,there are so many files need to add into the system area...
I have not try the Google input method yet.. Is it ok to install without any modification?
thanks will try this when i get home.
Would you by any chance know how to get the HTC TouchInput working? (The non-Chinese one). When I try to install the apk for it onto 1.5, it forcecloses every 10 seconds.
Awesome one. Your help is much appreciated.

Nope, I have never tried any build with that, sorry.
Oh BTW there is one thing I've notice with the HTC-CIME.apk in JF1.5.
If I call out the handwriting interface in horizontal layout, the TouchInput will crash.
Does any buddy meet this problem too? I'm now trying very hard not to write Chinese in horizontal layout now.

Just tried it - facing the same issue. I didn't notice this before since I was using PinYin input all the time.
Does this problem occur on haykuro's ADP1.5Hr3?
lol just load up HTC_CIME.apk via app installer and you have chinese touch input, no need for all those steps...

Yeah, I've been trying to do this too, but IDK what's wrong...
the normal key.apk forcecloses, but the chinese touchinput works (and it has everything key.apk has), so I'm just using the english part of the chinese one
When I press the up-right arrow in the handwriting input screen, it force-closed and will force-close everytime until I uninstalled it. Anyone experienced the same?
if you want to use it just for typing, just load htc_CIME.apk thats what i did, typing is flawless even in landscape, im not Chinese so i don't draw in, tho if they had an english version thatd be awesome.
Thank you!!!!!!

I have no problems opening and using handwriting layout in horizontal. I am running JF ADP1.5 with CIME+libraries from Haykuro 1.5r3. I actually diffed the system folders of JF1.5 and Hr3 myself before I discovered this thread (who needs search when you can just reinvent the wheel, right?) Unlike the OP, I actually also had some additional z8d files in /system/lib. They are not identical to the ones in /system/lib/zi , so they might be important. Here are the steps I carried out (for windows):
Code:
adb push \lib\libimezi.so /system/lib/libimezi.so
adb push \lib\libpphwr.so /system/lib/libpphwr.so
adb push \lib\Zi8DatPYP_CN.z8d /system/lib/Zi8DatPYP_CN.z8d
adb push \lib\Zi8DatPYS_CN.z8d /system/lib/Zi8DatPYS_CN.z8d
adb push \lib\Zi8DatZHA_CN.z8d /system/lib/Zi8DatZHA_CN.z8d
adb push \lib\Zi8DatZHA_HK.z8d /system/lib/Zi8DatZHA_HK.z8d
adb push \lib\Zi8DatZHA_TW.z8d /system/lib/Zi8DatZHA_TW.z8d

adb push \lib\Zi8DatZYS_TW.z8d /system/lib/Zi8DatZYS_TW.z8d
adb push \lib\zi\Zi8DatPYP_CN.z8d /system/lib/zi/Zi8DatPYP_CN.z8d
adb push \lib\zi\Zi8DatPYS_CN.z8d /system/lib/zi/Zi8DatPYS_CN.z8d
adb push \lib\zi\Zi8DatZHA_CN.z8d /system/lib/zi/Zi8DatZHA_CN.z8d
adb push \lib\zi\Zi8DatZHA_HK.z8d /system/lib/zi/Zi8DatZHA_HK.z8d

You can get Helix Launcher in the Market that will enable 7 screens!

The current Helix launcher(Nexus one version) is very laggy. Native launcher is very smooth, no lag or stutter to it, no force closes. I get force closes several times a day with Helix. He wants some way to get 7 screens on the native launcher.
Maybe a dumb question....
Can I use Terminal Emulator (the one in the newest cyan mod) to push things like .apk's?
I need a way around not having sdk here at work. I can d/l the .zip's no problem, bit what can I do from there?
I've managed to get cyan, kernels, radios and morph mods etc - so I'm not THAT dumb, but I've searched all over these forums and I can't seem to find a straight forward answer to this. Also, is there like a terminal emulator guide I can read somewhere? I'm assuming it's just like the adb stuff just slightly different?
I'm pretty new to this stuff so any help would be great. THX

Would it be possible to have the green selection like on the hero roms and keep the notification bar the stock color?

you can use root explorer to install .apk to /system/ or even replace files on the /system/ that need root
Yes terminal commands are fairly equal to adb commands. Here is a simple run down.
adb shell is the same thing as entering a command into the terminal.
adb shell reboot
to
reboot
adb shell followed by a series of commands
adb shell
xxxxx xxxxxxxx xxxx
yy yyy yyyyyyyy yy
zzzzz zzzz zzzzzz
to
xxxxx xxxxxxxx xxxx
yy yyy yyyyyyyy yy
zzzzz zzzz zzzzzz
adb push would be like so
adb push Mms.apk /system/app/Mms.apk
to
cp location-of-file/Mms.apk /system/app/Mms.apk
adb pull would be like so
adb pull /system/app/Mms.apk desktop
to
cp /system/app/Mms.apk location-to-put-file
finally
adb remount
to
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /systems
Those are basic adb commands to terminal commands. Sorry for the crappy layout of my post. I may fix it later but all the info is there.
Also, I am going to request a mod to move the posts to the general discussion thread as per the first post.

just letting you know,
Im actually in the works of a theme with green selection effects and a stock status bar, among other things, as in more white acccents including white lockscreen tabs. (david already knows) thanks again!
Just letting you know, however i dont have a nexus which makes it extremely hard to test my theme out
try using the 0.5 version, its faster than 0.6
the 0.7beta standalone pushed to /system/apps/ is definitly faster than 0.6 as well, never have had FC issues from helixlauncher2 personally, but i only use it as /system/app/ and not standalone

RESOLVED:Rooted but getting Permission Denied from ADB Shell?

ADB Shell connects just fine, but I cannot SU into it. I am rooted and have the latest SuperUser installed... In addition, I have USB debugging enabled, the LG drivers, and Root Explorer works perfectly.
RESOLVED:
You must have SuperUser OPEN while trying to SU from ADB. I don't remember this being needed on my Nexus One, but it's working now. I will keep this up for others that might need it....
Sceencast in droid explorer isnt working for me.rooted g2x. Maybe ill reinstall it after i get home from work. Is yours working?
Do you have SuperUser OPEN while trying to use it? Seems that it's not running persistently like it did on my N1

just got home from work. gonna try it now.
nope, no screencast even with super user running. just rebooted. gonna try again. logcat seems to be going nuts though.
I was going crazy about this and asked Chris Soyars because I have never had to do this either. This is what he said:
"You can just type 'su' while in an adb shell, and it should drop you down to root. You won't get adb providing root until you have a boot image flashed that isn't running in secure mode.... -Chris Soyars"

First you need to go to settings developer options and root access and check apps and ADB
Then you might have to do the CHMOD -R 777 /directorynameyouaretryingtoaccess
Guys. I am assuming the su in adb shell is preceded by an adb remount? By default system is ro not rw.

mini how-to to _fake_ front camera for Google+ Hangouts

all you need to do, is get the permission XML for from face camera device rom (used the one from VIVO), and push it system, via recovery.
adb reboot recovery; adb shell mount -a; adb push android.hardware.camera.front.xml /system/etc/permissions/; adb shell fix_permissions; adb reboot
done
....
PROFIT
PS: this is NOT a flashable zip. but anyone wants to make one, be my guest
thanks to Kali- for the tips
Pushed the xml to the permisions folder with no problems. Ran fix_permissions and rebooted, doesn't appear to have done anything. I can verify that the xml is in the correct folder but google + just doesnt want to do hangouts.
Nexus One running CM7
Any ideas?
EDIT: I was wrong, I thought I would be able to start a hangout but once I found an existing one I was able to join no problem. THANKS!
Qestion
Will it happen if you copy the "android.hardware.camera.front.xml" in folder "/ system / etc / permissions /" by Root Explorer, and then restart the phone?

Yes, you'll either need to manually change the permissions in root explorer to match all the other files in there, or run fix permissions as per the guide

Thanks, I try it, but doesn't work
This is how I got mine to work
There were some permissions issues and my phone can't adb anymore for some reason (seems common with the Captivate), so I did the following from Terminal Emulator:
su
# mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock2
# chmod 777 /system
# cp /mnt/sdcard/Downloads/android.hardware.camera.front.xml /system/etc/permissions/.
# chmod 644 /system/etc/permissions/android.hardware.camera.front.xml
[Restart into recovery mode]
[Advanced]
[Fix Permissions]
And it worked! You just can't create your own Hangouts from the phone. You can join others though using your back-facing camera!
Thanks OP!

Why does xda developers require we create user names? If there's anyone who knows this, please let me know as I'm curious.
I haven't created a non-email username since the days of AOL. Now I have to make a dumb-sounding faux name like "hotmama2385" all over again? I really wish I could use my e-mail address as my persona. If I can't, at least I'd like to know out of curiosity why the design decision was made to exclude that possibility. of course as a protection from spambots I'd want some of my e-mail address hidden behind a CAPTCHA.
I know some people are privacy focused and/or want to be able to troll anonymously. So why not allow a username which can take whatever form we chose - AOL-esque IDs or an e-mail address - as most login services allow?
As an aside, I have the same question for Twitter, which is the reason I haven't signed up for it. I pushed off signing up for XDA by a couple of years until I absolutely had to because of this, and rarely log in because I can't remember that stupid username. (I just started to a little more because of LastPass.)
Nice work... I'll try this one...
hello,
how to fix permission?
with a terminal
I'm not sure what command that is specifically from a terminal, but you can type adb reboot recovery and then fix permissions via menu option once in recovery.
yep, but the problem I haven t a recovery mode. I want to say no menu.
I have an HTC evo 4g with CM 7.2RC1.
I implemented this fix, and rebooted, but still, when trying to do a video call, it stays on "video initializing" and never seems to finish. I have the latest skype from market.
What to do?
just maybe
So I installed the sdk tools, and opened cmd, and then cd to where adb is. I then copy and pasted the entire string "adb reboot recovery; adb shell mount -a; adb push android.hardware.camera.front.xml /system/etc/permissions/; adb shell fix_permissions; adb reboot" and pasted that into cmd is that all I do. I tried dong just "adb reboot recover" and waiting till it entered recovery, but then I couldn't do anything. after I pasted the entire string, my phone rebooted, and took a sec then started back up normally it seemed. So I think I did it correctly.
Perfect!!! Thanks, works like a charm on my Nexus One
great on arc s for hangouts
It's working great on arc s to create hangouts, but it still does not enable video chat in google talk.
I really don't understand why front camera is a pre-requisite for it. I shall be able to see at least the other's video if he has a front cam, even if they don't see me. Any way to workaround this issue of googletalk? (either to trick it to use front cam or just to display an empty frame, but receive other end's video).
I tried the same to see if it would work for Talk on my Defy, but no success
