[Q] Installed CyanogenMod Rom (Mytouch rom to Magic) needs swype though. - General Questions and Answers

I am running Rom Manager and downloaded the Swype keyboard after switching over to the CyqnogenMod 6.1.0-RC1-DS now with Swype downloaded I can change the keyboards but cannot get Swype to actually type. Do I need to reboot or something? If so when I do this do I do the Mytouch or the Magic when it asks, I am a total noob so any help is appreciated..

Hero music.apk on Magic

Has anyone tried to install HTC's music app onto a HTC magic? I only discovered there was another music player a few days ago and I would really like to use it on my magic.
Also, my Magic is not rooted. (Apparently it has a 'perfect SPL' and I dont have a spare SD to make a goldcard )
Thanks!
This is already covered. You need ROOT to either install a custom ROM with HTC's Framework or use a modified build.prop and use the HtcMusic.apk from the MyTouch Fender dump.

Froyo Android Market Unlock

Ok, since not everyone is using CM6 on an EVO I thought I'd share this outside that thread.
This should allow the Market to show the missing (protected) apps on Froyo. I've implemented it for the Gapps FRF91 Hdpi pack for now. Any HDPI Devices with deodexed Roms using this should work with this fix. It may work with other HDPI releases, but I've only tested it on FRF91 w/ CM6.
Wipe Market Data/Cache......Settings>>Applications>>Manage Apps>>ALL>>Market
Reboot Recovery
Wipe Cache
Wipe Dalvik Cache
Flash "MarketUpdateFroyoHdpi.zip"
Reboot
Accept Market Terms
On the off chance this borks your Market, just reflash your rom or the the Gapps pack.
If any other Froyo Markets have this problem, it shouldn't be too hard to implement the same fix.

If it doesn't work with your device/rom please specify both so that it will be easier to diagnose.
Big thanks to kallt_kaffe for leading me in the right direction.
It could be I've done something wrong, but this isn't working for me using Sapphire 0.7.0 (from droid-life) on my Droid (the original ). I've tried 2x (especially after finding where to do the dalvik cache wipe in clockwork) with installing it as an update.zip and just installing it as-is. I've been testing by trying to get comic strips back installed on my phone and app brain keeps telling me that mileage has an update though my phone doesn't agree.
I looks like that is using a different Google Apps version. I'll dl and try to patch it for you.
Here, give this a shot. Should work for all FRF84B Builds.
I don't have a device to test on, but this should do it.
does this work with g1 32b cm6
I'm not sure. I'd guess the g1 is an mdpi device though. If the mdpi market is locked (didn't think it was), I could apply the same fix. Also, is this for cdma or gsm?
Hi.
Great work!!!
I got it working with the MDPI version.
I just copied classes.dex from your fix to cyanogen's gapps-mdpi-FRF91-3.zip and I got Market unlocked.
If it's ok, can you share your secret/patch technique?
Did not appear to work for Acer Liquid Froyo. Still have problems accessing certain apps that I used in 2.1 ( AutoHTN Beta for example), APPBrain sees the app, but can not access it through the market.
Hi there
What about Android 2.1.1?
my phone is Motorola XT720, anything for that?
also, How do you "Flash" the application in recovery mode
any way i can do this using adb?
thanks

[Request] Vanilla Themed Multi-Touch Keyboard

Is there anyone who can tell me why the either of the following themed MT keyboards will not currently work?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=769358
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=769358&page=7
I'm on rubiX, and I'm simply unable to install these damn things. I can get the stock MT keyboard to install, and even WDJ's blacked out MT keyboard (if I install it over the stock one), but neither of these will work. Would a special lib file be necessary or something? Is there some specific order of operation necessary?

[ROM] Adlxmod "Froyo for Defy" v1.0 (Chinese base)

This is Adlxmod Froyo for Defy
- Based off Chinese Froyo Motorola release,

- Fully Deodexed by me -> Theme ready
- Optionally a dark notification bar patch can be installed, see below.
- Rooted
- Phone can be used with no SIM
- Includes Motoblur, which can be skipped
- Removed Chinese Bloatware
This rom targets people who want to upgrade to 2.2, but still like Motoblur. Performance isn't as good as deblurred rom, but you can OC/UV it to make it perform better (what I do).
Updated:
- Market 2.2.11 + Market Fix (Occidental apps)
- Google Maps 5.0.0
Added:
- Adlx Protips Widget
- Google Apps
- Swype (OEM version from Defy's Eclair rom)
- HTC_IME Keyboard
- Gingerbread Keyboard
- Android Terminal Emulator
- Wireless (Wifi & Bluetooth) Tethering
- Busybox 1.16
- AOSP Email App
- Titanium 3.6.7.1
- LauncherPro 0.8.2
- Tenfar ClockworkMod Recovery
- 3D Gallery (my mod)
- Overclock support (phone won't be OCed by default)
- SetCPU (free from XDA, please donate on the Market)
- Milestone Overclock
- Added in /system/xbin: rwsystem/rosystem, wpa_cli, zipalign, strace, ssh, sqlite3, dexopt-wrapper, tcpdump, fix_permissions, iptables
- Lots of APNs added
- Ad-Blocking
- AOSP Eclair icons
Instructions:
Rom's Nandroid: adlxmod-Defy-Froyo-build05.zip
DarkBar Patch : adlxmod-Defy-Froyo-DarkBarOnly.1-signed.zip
- This Rom is a Nandroid backup of system to be restored over the phone.
- The zip contains:
ZIP:\goapkrev\
\backup\
\date & time\
system.img
nandroid.md5
It has to be unzipped in the root of the SDcard in the exact same structure:
SDCRAD:\goapkrev\
\backup\
\date & time\
system.img
nandroid.md5
If u are not using a Froyo rom yet, start with those steps:
- Flash Chinese Froyo sbf using RSD Lite
- Root using SuperOneClickFor2.1
- Reboot
- Install Tenfar Recovery application
- Run Tenfar Recovery
- Install Recovery
( If you are using already a Froyo rom for Defy, you can jump directly to these steps )
- DISABLE USB Debugging Mode (In Settings / Applications / Developpement)
- Reboot into Recovery
- Restore nandroid
- (Optional) Flash the DarkBar patch
- Wipe All!
- Reboot
Known Issues:
- Gallery 3D will FC if click on the camera button, will fix later
- Swype close word window doesn't show up upon double tap (?!)
- Only English & Chinese locales for the moment
- No PTBR locale in swype. Working on it.
- Camera Flash is sort of working for me, it fires correctly but seems a bit out of sync. Hope you have more luck with that.
Downloading now...will definitely check it out! Thanks.
Here's the problem, I like this ROM, but I hate BLUR, however this rom doesn't have too much blur, and sadly, the reason I can't use this ROM is because EDGE is the only connectivity I get. Also, I'm using another ROM atm and everytime I upgrade to maps 5.0 navigation stops working and maps lags alot. Is that the case here?
EDIT: Also, I like the keyboards and I want skype back, but I can't extract them because it's an .img file and I don't have anything that can view it...therefore i was wondering, coiuld you please upload the swype and HTC IME? I'm on the original USA DEFY and miss swype and I like HTC IME. =[

You can install swype by their official page "http://beta.swype.com/" just register and follow the steps, i had to uninstall and remove some files on the one the comes with Defy but after it i was able to do install it.
I did all of this because i wanted swype in Portuguese, that is not available in the ROM's

That is good and all, but I want the version of Swpe that came with my T-Mobile DEFY, well it's actually my friend's DEFY, he got it yesterday I"m rooting and helping, but anyways he wants the version that came with the phone originally the white skin and all. I know that's possible because this ROM has it, but I"m running a different 2.2 ROM at the moment, and I don't know how to extract the keyboard form this ROM.
There are instructions on restoring 3g for US on this forum.

I saw that, but are there any not involving ADB because I keep getting an error when trying to use ADB with the DEFY -
I get this error:
* daemon not running. starting it now *
CreateProcess failure, error 2
* failed to start daemon *
error: cannot connect to daemon

You need to uninstall/reinstall ADB or re-read the installation instructions. You have a problem with your environmental variables.
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Howto:_Install_the_Android_SDK
Also that 3G fix only works with Android 2.1 (eclair). You will need to make or get a 3G fix for Android 2.2 (froyo). I'm not sure how that would happen, since you would need some files off of a 2.2 rom that is compatible with US networks, and the only current 2.2 rom is the chinese version. Which is why I haven't tried any of the 2.2 roms yet. I'm just going to wait until something more stable is available.
Hi Adlxdum, I restored your back and your rom is really fast and pretty neatly modded, thank you very much for that. However, immediately after booting, google is restoring all the apps and settings which I had on my previous rom. Including the apps. Hence not much customization seems to be left at the end of this. Is there a file that is somewhere here on either my sd card or inside my phone which I can delete. That way I can enjoy the complete benefits of your rom.
thanks again.
EDIT: Sorry there is an option on froyo for that. I unchecked the "restore backup" option under privacy.
Hey guys, will i be able to put it in top of 2.51?
Edit: I'm now testing

There is an app on the forum here that will restore 3G. I'm using it and it works. I'll see if I can find it.

It did boot, first SDCard wasn't being detected, it was ok after reboot.
Found out that camera wasn't working, used the camera fix.sbf from "bihariel" ROM, it is now working but flashlight only worked the first time, i'm now pushing flashlight fix, lets see what happens.

Home can i make blurhome become the default launcher?
cheers

If you don't use Launcher Pro, you can remove it from /system/app.
Adlxdum, hey Bihariel just put out a camera fix and I used it on your ROM too. It works like a charm all that flash problems and it being unsynchronous is all gone.
I urge all you guys try that fix. It actually works on every ROM of froyo we have here.

Could you link it? And also, I'm on T-Mobile USA, could someone please tell me how I can get 3G working WITHOUT ADB access? Using Terminal or root explorer perhaps? Also, does WiFi calling work? I really need that to work as I have no signal in my dorm. Please help, and it'd be much appreciated. Thanks!

Keyboard Change?????

Is there a way to take a keyboard layout of a custom rom and put it in another rom. I downloaded the keyboard zip file into my memory card and tried to install it through recovery. But I still have the same keyboard.
there are different keyboards in the market
try, you might like one better
The custom ROM I havve currently doesn't have the HTC keyboard. But I think I tweaked it to work.
