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 :/

That's a really good idea but we need to get it working with 1.5 first
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?

haha thank you so much i have been waiting for this for a LONG TIME!
Seems they changed detection on whether or not the keypad's open a bit as well, I'll see about making it more reliable sometime today.
Attaching new one, same procedure, rename to .apk and install directly.
What's the point in this?

Bronze G1s suffer from the same problem. So here's another vote for "change timeout based on time of day" feature. Preferably something configurable and togglable. Thanks for your hard work, guys!
Hello all I would like some assistance on how to PORT over the Browser from Eclair. I have successfull installed the Flash application from the Droid-eris on my G1. Any thoughts. This may be the way to getting flash on our devices.

Is this meant to be sarcastic?
loccy made a post stating his plans to backport the browser already, into his "betterbrowser"
i dont think we necessarily need this thinktank
Its compiled for SDK 5 so atm no way except backporting.

The droid eris is android 1.5, not eclair. Lots of people have wanted to and tried to bring flash over, but so far no good.
If you go to android-platform group, you will see that JBQ try to port all to ADP1 and lot ot things work.
We must wait and it will be come
See this link http://groups.google.com/group/android-platform/browse_thread/thread/53c6f66d5dc155bd
As I understand it, *right now*, you can simply compile the android master branch for HTC DREAM, and it will work fine except for no camera.

To be honest, I took a quick look last week, and most of the new UI prettiness stuff is webkit and/or framework based, so coming up with an APK that'll run on Donut will be a nightmare. Other things (e.g. double tap zooming) I'm doing in my browser already. I might have another play this weekend, but to be honest I think I'll wait until 2.0 ROMs start to appear before I really get my teeth into the 2.0 browser code.
You do know Eclair doesn't have Flash (yet)?
I de-odexed and patched the Sense 2.1 Email APK (from MikG v1.01) so that Device administrator is not enforced. This means you can use whatever lock screen you want (if having one at all) and modify the timeout period.
I used edify scripting, so this should work on CWR or AmanRA
This may violate your company's EAS policy, so be careful. This is at your own risk!!!!!
Please nandroid backup first before applying. This deletes your Mail.apk/odex
It works only on sense roms or is for any rom?

Can they detect it somehow?
Edit: Also, does it bypass the requirement to have encryption on the SD card and the phone itself?

1. Not to my knowledge
2. No idea, my test EAS server didn't enforce that. But I think it would probably work
anyone tried it out yet?
cool. I will try it. Anyway to get the Sense 3.0 mail.apk the same way?
I'd love this. Any chance of un-allowing remote device wipe? I'd like to get my work email on my phone, but I'll be damned if I'm going to give them remote wipe ability on MY phone.

Your Exchange admins can run security scans to see if you're running a re-signed version of the app. So you have to ask yourself if it's worth risking whatever sort of reprimand you might get if you're caught. If you're that paranoid about getting remote wiped, then you should be equally paranoid about breaking security rules.

You are not always breaking the rules. For example, my EAS server has a timeout of 60 minutes before pin needs to be re-entered. However, Android Email timeout is MUCH shorter. Also, I have never heard that EAS admin can check that. The signature doesn't even remain after you flash it...so that makes no sense.
I will give this a try, but just a heads up, I used to use a different (stock, not HTC) modified email without the security, and my companies IT locked me out of my account because it didn't have the required security.
Will report back if this is the same deal...

I believe the android mail.apk I used was modified to trick the server into thinking the auto-lock was enabled when it wasn't. Don't remember at this point, but all I know is I got a day or two out of it before they blocked my phone
Eh, their loss...no email following me around

also, they do check User-Agents of email clients. If your corp. accepted touchdown for example, or HTC, but not stock android...it wouldn't matter if it was patched or not. But just a thought
still looking from feedback from folks This will work on any version of MikG (or other Sense 2.1 based roms)

so i recently purchased a pantech pocket for the meantime until i get my new note 2 =) if you have a pantech pocket you should read up on this...
i had a hard time trying to find things for the pocket but i managed to do a little bit of tinkering myself.
first you have you pantech and you want root right?? Shortfuse.org download superoneclick. and bam your done
ok next, our phones have the ability to create a wireless hotspot but you normally have to talk to At&t and pay an extra service a month for it....not anymore ha just download secret codes revealer from the play store, run app, click search codes, then click list codes search for "softapactivation" click on it, click launch code, now there will be 4 checkboxes, check all of them except for "check to return APN failed" click save and thats it! this method works best if you get a widget to enable tethering after.
last but not least, our pockets, lol, are preloaded with flash player 10.3, i recommmend deleting it with an app likle rom manager, and download the latest apk of flash 11. make sure you have unchecked unknown sources and install and you know have latest flash player to watch your...errmm *adult videos*... haha
oh almost forgot, you can also edit your build prop with these additional entries
found here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1560588
i have not tried all of them but the ones i have tried are infact working and make the phone smoother.
currently there are no custom roms or kernels for the pantech pocket but with these steps your phone will definetly feel better and work better as well any questions please feel free to ask away, much love and light xda community
Oh man! you're a God! Thanks from Colombia and forgive my english... I've been trying to enable the tethering of my pantech pocket for about 7 days and your post has been the only accurate answer. Thank you very much.

hi everybody!
sorry for the non-descriptive title, but i have some questions i'd like to ask here. i just got my moto g 2 days ago, i switched from a samsung galaxy s+ (with cm10.2) so this is quite the change for me, hardware and software wise.
[ANSWERED] 1. first i missed the possibility to swipe my keyboard to type, i found many different apps for that, but my question would be what is the keyboard included in cyanogenmod? because since this can 'see' everything i type i want an app for that i can trust...
[ANSWERED] 2. i really liked the cLock app for time and weather in cm, but google-ing 'clock app' wasnt the most helpful thing i've ever done ^^ so here my queston would be aswel whats the cyanogenmod cLock app and where can i find it?!
[ANSWERED] 3. next thing would be how can i get something like pdroid on this device (i had it on the sgs+)? i would need root i assume, i saw lots of different methods for that aswel. one with like contacting motorola to get the rom unlocked or something like that. so whats the easiest way to get a privacy control on the moto g? i remember something like the new android has some inbuilt setting for that?!?
[ANSWERED] 4. something that is irritating me quite a lot are the software keys, because samsung has the back key on the right side and the moto has it on the left side. also i dont understand why there would be a key for recent apps instead of a menu key. same here: i saw lots of different methods to change that, some even with adding or getting rid of lines of the code. ok i managed to install cm on my sgs, but thats a little out of my capabilities ^^ so again what would be the easiest way to change the buttons around?
[ANSWERED] 5. another thing would be, how do i turn off the vibration when using the keyboard? i tried the setting under 'sound' -> 'vibrate on touch' (or something along those lines) but that didnt turn off all of the vibration, for example its still vibrating when i use the keyboard but not anymore when i open apps or menus.
maybe there is even the possibility to install a stable version of cyanogenmod on the moto g which would solve most of my issues? but since this is running so smoothly i dont want any nightly builds, alphas or betas on this thing right now...
btw i am using the nova launcher in case that makes any difference for any of the questions above!?
also i include this screenshot with all the version numbers in it because it might be useful: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5JftqugO1xsbnh1dTBrQzZVWXc/edit?usp=sharing
thanks a bunch in advance and for reading and i hope someone is willing and able to help me out here!:fingers-crossed:
EDIT:
all the questions above have been answered! only one more question is open atm, [ here ] thanks to everyone who contributed so far!

You can install the stock google keyboard from the play store for using swype, And there is cyangenmod version available for the G, you should go to the Moto G Original Android Development section of the forum for that. The vibration option should be in your sound / keyboard settings so you just need to look better i gues.

I suggest to install Xposed framework (Root needed), and then you can have this features with Gravity Box and Xprivacy (these are modules for Xposed).
In order to root, you have to unlock the bootloader (follow the instruction on Motorola website), then install a Custom recovery (I suggest Philz one) and supersu from Play store

hi and thank you for your contribution! i have unlocked and rooted my device successfully and installed the xposed framework. i havent quite got the hang of how xprivacy works as of now since its a little different from pdroid (and somewhat confusing imo). but thats just a matter of time i guess. i'll start reading here: https://github.com/M66B/XPrivacy#xprivacy or is there a better quick start guide?
i assume i can uninstall the 'xprivacy installer' (the one from google play) after i installed 'xprivacy'? and that gravity box is for the softkeys and its this one here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2554049 ? i'll look into that tomorrow, since its getting late here and i dont wanna mess up now ^^

Mornin', you're very welcome!
Xprivacy it's kind of complicated, but that reading will help you. I admit I don't use it, but I know it gives you full control on privacy and this is what you were looking for As you said, it's just a matter of time!
Btw you can install modules directly from Xposed Installer application, so you can bypass the Play Store.
Yes that's gravity box: it's very good and popular, you can surely reverse/set all the software keys, but also do a lot of modding!
It's more intuitive than Xprivacy, just go ahead options and try them, it's safe!
Good luck and forgive my english!

i am no native english tongue myself, so i dont notice anything wrong with your english. no need to excuse, i make mistakes myself.
i was under the impression that you could do 'stupid' stuff with xprivacy, like i was able to deny my camera app access to the camera with pdroid. that was a good way to test if it was properly working. so i tried and deny firefox access to 'internet' but that didnt seem to work, but then again it especially said its no going to break apps. i dig into all of this further later on.
just a question, what would be a good way to verify it is working like its supposed to? talking about xprivacy here...
edit: and to answer my question no.5: there is another setting for vibration in the keyboard itself, so you have to go through -> language and input -> select settings on your keyboard -> vibrate on key push (or sth along those lines), so basically you have to turn it off twice.

Yeah, of course! I thought you managed this already! Keyboard is like an app itself, and has its own settings (i.e. vibration)

I just tried it and i had no problem to deny the access for Firefox. When you open xprivacy in the app list tap on the Firefox Logo, not on the name or the checkbox. If you do so the details will open. If you now tick the category "Internet" then you will see that it is checked as a square, not as a hook. If it is a square it is only partially blocked. If you go now into the details of the category "Internet", you will see, that not all options are checked. Some are even marked red because they might be essential for the functionalty of the specific app. If you check also these and maybe also all others, then you can prevent Firefox of getting access to the Internet. If you check all items in Internet manually you'll see that category internet has now a hook than a square.
but then again it especially said its no going to break apps.

I did not really get what you wanted to say with this.
just a question, what would be a good way to verify it is working like its supposed to?

You can check for example all outgoing connections to the internet from your device. I have not tested this tool, or similar like that, but i will now because i just had the idea Else you can also prevent Facebook app to connect. I use Auto Hide Softkey App. I can for example prevent that it uses the overlay function, so it can not modify the UI and hide the Navbar.
Xprivacy is a very powerful tool. If you want it more simple, you can activate the in Android but Disabled inbuilt AppOPS App (search for AppOPS). But it is also less powerful.
I bought xprivacy. If you buy it, you can download the restrictions automatically and upload yours for others. You are also able to export end import the settings if licensed. Also nice that you can buy it via Paypal because i do not have a Credit Card (and i don't want).
but google-ing 'clock app' wasnt the most helpful thing i've ever done ^^

You should definitely work on your Googling skills
Try "best android clock apps" "List of android clocks" and so on, there are dozens.
maybe there is even the possibility to install a stable version of cyanogenmod on the moto g which would solve most of my issues? but since this is running so smoothly i dont want any nightly builds, alphas or betas on this thing right now...

My friend, you are really funny
Cyanogenmod just got a snapshot Status few days ago. It is one step ahead being a nightly and to steps behind beeing stable
Hope that helps.

Oh and for some settings you do you also have to restart your phone. But actually it will tell you to do so by displaying a toast.

thanks for the explanation! i clicked on the firefox logo but i didnt know you can go even deeper into each section for permissions, that explains it!

well you explained it yourself pretty much, the app was designed to not break apps in the way they work but restrict them from your privat data. so when i clicked firefox'es internet permission and it had the square, i disabled some but not all of it. thats all i was saying

i wasnt on my computer for quiet some time so i couldnt answer on this thread, my apologies.
i bought the pro version of xprivacy with paypal too and i synced my permissions for all apps with the cloud or crowd. it could find and sync most of my apps which is a nice and easy way to get around the ridiculous amount of permissions to set for each app.
can you confirm that most of the synced crowd settings make sense in the way of privacy protection? because i havent looked too much into all those settings but even when i did i couldnt quiet understand them in depth...
also @Landrea thanks for recommending gravity box, that thing is amazing! i was able to restore most of the cyanogenmod settings i was missing, great! also i could reconfigure my softkeys, but i am thinking about this app here to maximize my usable screensize:

or
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.tsorn.FullScreen
or is there a setting for that in gravity box i missed?

You're welcome!
Check navigation bar settings in gravity box, you can change the size of the soft keys and gain space.
Go for that apps if you think you need more usable screensize (hard to believe)

i wondered what that would be and imagined something for screen transmission (chromecast) or something like that, thanks for clearing that up! best to have as little extra programs as needed on my device... cool gravity box got that covered aswel, liking this more and more!
