[Q] Tnt Lite 4.4.0 Russian keyboard.

Downloaded few keyboard apps from the marked, installed successfully, but can't make "input method" Russian keyboard, cuz can not activate them from settings - language&keyboard menu. Any ideas?
Thanks

This is a common problem with stock, and thus TNT Lite - you can't add keyboards that way. you need to use a rooted method like root explorer or adb (the apk needs to be added to /system/app).

Swype Beta 3.0 on EVO... any success?

Hi all,
As the title implies, I just tried updating to the newest version and keep getting an error telling me that it's running in limited mode (allows key press) but when I swype, NOTHING!
The funny thing is when i try to generate the license I follow the steps:
1) click disable swype (it then throws you to the keyboard selection screen where i choose android keyboard)
2) uncheck swype (I don't even see this option on the keyboard selection screen, I'm on MIUI
3) hit generate license
For the previous build... the hack/fix/trick was to start from a swpye free device, install the installer, then install swype... After doing this, you don't go back into the installer to generate the license, you'd go backup the swype apk using a backup tool, then uninstall swype... then restore the backup (then long press home button) and click on swype installer which would register and generate ok.
Any Thoughts?

Worked perfect for me. As a previously registered member, all I did was log in. Dl the installer. Installed the swype. Used it. Realized why i deleted it to begin with. Uninstalled. Looks better, yes...would rather type the Damn thing out than have to correct over and over again little errors that my HTC kingdom keyboard fixes. Good luck w your install tho

Also mine generated its own license after i completed the install.

weird... are you on MIUI?
I'm at a loss as to why it won't work.
I'm trying some suggestions found here:
http://forum.swype.com/showthread.php?3719-Install-Swype-on-MIUI-without-Titanium-Backup!

i finally got my hands on a 3.0 apk. It will not install. The forums say it won't install over a "system" version. So now i think i have to figure out how to remove the installed version.

One of the new features of 3.0 was tap correction, so it can do the same things the stock keyboard can as well.

It sounds like you've got the preloaded version installed.
Try using root explorer to uninstall it.

Well isn't that amazing!!
Finally got this working on MIUI.
I followed the steps from the 4th post on http://forum.swype.com/showthread.php?3719-Install-Swype-on-MIUI-without-Titanium-Backup
"Sorry, but for me it does not work.
This guide has now works for me.
Download installer
Download and install swype
At the enable step leave the installer and select swype as the input device
Reboot your phone
After Reboot, open the swype installer again
Select "Select Android keyboard" and change input back to android keyboard
Choose disable swype, go to applications and uninstall swype but NOT THE INSTALLER
Go back to the installer and generate license
This should put you through the download process again so just follow it and re-install swype
Once re-installed it should generate the license, but it still won't work
Reboot your phone again and all should work, enjoy!

However, thank you for your help! "

This is exactly what i had to do. I found the existing swype apk, deleted it, restarted the phone and was able to install the new version.
All i have to say so far is awesome! Typing in "normal" mode doesn't seem to lag or be as clumsy as before. Plus(my favorite feature so far) it now asks if you would like to add a word to the dictionary instead of just adding whatever i happened to be typing at the time on it's own. MUCH more control over what words are included. I'm still playing around with it, but so far i'm impressed.

Does miui comes work swype already? If it does you will need to get a file explorer...then go to system/app and look for swype....when you find swype deleted and then reboot your phone...when the phone is on instal swype installer and swype and just follow the instruction to regenerate the license....it work for me....

There is also a library file to delete. in system/lib/libswype.so or something like that. I had to delete that file before it would work for me.

Its more efficient to delete the swype.apk from system/app if you need a file explorer let me know our you can go to the market and download one

I'd also say just titanium backup to remove and then install the new apk.
Worked for me at least, and man is this worlds better than 2.5xxx

all thats needed to install the new beta is uninstall the official apk and lib.
on miui just install then restart the phone. the licence will generate itself. im loving the new beta, but i must admit im a bit jealous if the themeing honeycomb users got for the honeycomb version of swype 3.0.

No issues here. Just uninstalled Swype and went to beta.swype.com to download the new one.

How to install the Android Market on the Zen Touch 2

Installing the android market on the Zen Touch 2
All files needed are included in the zip that can be downloaded from the attachment.
Just unzip it to your Zen's SD card.
I got this method to work after messing around with my Zen for most of the night. The steps are what I think made the whole thing work out, but I may have done something else that caused this to work. If you can't get this to work PLEASE post a reply and I will post the whole process that I went through.
1. Install "z4root.1.3.0.apk".
2. Open Z4root and click permanent root, it will take a bit to complete, then it will restart your Zen.
3. Now install "Root Explorer 2.16.apk".
4. Copy the "com.android.vending-1.apk" to your SD card.
5. In Root Explorer the file "com.android.vending-1.apk" and long press it, select copy then navigate to the root directory by pressing the back button until you see a single "/" as the directory at the top under the notifications bar.Then navigate to /system/app, then at the top there should be a button that says "Mount R/W", press it and it should now say Mount R/O, now tap paste at the bottom.
6. Click on the "com.android.vending-1.apk" and tap install. Once it is installed DO NOT OPEN/RUN IT!
7. Restart your Zen and then wait for everything to load up.
8. There should now be an icon for the market in the app drawer. Open it and you should be prompted to add your Google account, type in your Gmail address and password, YouTube or any other Google service you have an account for.
9. You now should have the working android market on you zen touch 2!

tried it
hi Ryan, thanks for the post. Unfortuneatly it didn t work for me . The android market was installed, but when I try to start it, the app asks me if i want to add an account to the device. When i tap "yes" the program just closes. When i tap "no" the same thing happens...any idea what i could do??
Malte

Try This
Hi Malte
Try going to Settings > accounts & sync Settings, then try and add your google account. Then restart your Zen. If that doesn't work try the steps that were added as reply's in this thread I started on this forum: anythingbutipod.com/forum/showthread.php?p=577788#post577788 . Reply back here if this doesn't work.
Ryan

hi,
thanks for your job!
but, I have zen touch 2 with android 2.2.1
the exploit don't work (no error, rebbot ok, but no root in root explorer) and unable to copy com.android.vending-1.apk in /system/app/
And, in my surprise, I'm not possible to connect with simple "adb shell'
To usb disk, ok, but not adb! Is normal?
Sorry for my english.
Remi.

HELP PLEASE!!!! Need a Update.zip file
Hi, I bought a Zen Touch 2 and try to get android market on it, now my device is stock on initial configuration process, I tought I can fix it with an Update.zip file, can some body help me please?

A little light at the end of a dark tunnel
Hope this is the right place to post this. Today is february 21, 2013 as of 11:00 pm est time today, I have market working on a rooted creative zen touch 2, the non gps edition.
Note, I have firmware 2.2.1
What I did:
1) Seeing as how I managed to install market before, but it crashed, I first made sure that all instances of market were uninstalled
2) Backed up all apps with titanium or your favorite backup program
3) Downloaded GoogleServicesFramework.apk (see attatched)
4) copy the googleservicesframework.apk to /system/app let it install
5) Did a factory reset of the zen touch 2 with out wipping the cache
6) restored my backed up apps and verrified that the google services was installed, and I also setup the google account by going into settings- accounts and sync and tapped add account.
7) go into applications under settings, and tap unknown sources
8) once that was done, I nstalled
9) After making sure the com.android.vending-1.apk was in the /system/app directory, I installed it and reboot the touch
10)I downloaded google play version 3.9.17 (see attatched)
11) rebooted the touch, and prayed to the android gods, and launched it. No errorr, no crash, I even managed to install go launcher ex
If you follow this along with the one above, there is no reason why you can't have the android market on a creative zen touch 2 android device. Hope this helps.

Download and Install
Now, getting it on your device is going to be easy for some of you, and less easy for others. You'll need to be on Android 4.0+, to start.
If you're on a phone with a UI overlay that has the stock keyboard disabled (eg, Samsung TouchWiz, HTC Sense, Sony), you can just download the apk below- no root required. To install, make sure you have "install from unknown sources" enabled in your phone settings, and after installation, go into your phone's keyboard settings and enable "Android keyboard." Then, you can switch to the new keyboard. This may also work on some "stock" Android custom ROMs - but it will not work on stock Android builds distributed by Google.
Get the apk here: http://d-h.st/XuS
If the apk doesn't work, you're running a phone that is either A.) running stock Android (as in, AOSP), or B.) running software that has the stock Android keyboard as an option, you'll need to download this ZIP file, and flash it in recovery. That also means you're going to need root. as you'll be writing to /system/apps. Before you do, though, either back up the stock keyboard (if you don't know how, you probably shouldn't be doing this) or create a full image backup, just in case. Here's that ZIP file:
