Rom with spell checker? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

I just got this phone yesterday to discover that the stock rom (rooted) doesn't have the red line show up under a misspelled word. I had this on my evo 4g running cm9 or 10.
Does anyone know of a rom, or roms, that would have this feature.

Or would anyone know of a way to add this feature to the stock ics rom?

never really paid attention to this.
id think this might be a keyboard feature more than a rom feature, no?

I installed LantinIME.apk from a rom I extracted for the evo. The keyboard worked but still no spell checker. Did you happen to notice if any of the roms you've flashed had this feature, preferably an ICS rom?

I also think this is a keyboard feature. Try installing one of the different keyboards from the play store.

I'm using swift 3, no red lines on touchwiz, however my galaxy player 5.0 running cm9 w/swift 3 has it (did not on touchwiz). I assume this is a rom feature.

I have been trying to ilfigure this out for a while. I haven't been able to get it to work with any of the roms. Someone said CM10 might do it but haven't tried.

Edit:
This is a better start: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1832126 the changes could be diffed from the stock rom

Would you happen to know if that would work with the stock rom (rooted) for Verizon?
I just got the phone and even though I've been doing a ton of reading, I'm still a noob when it comes to the s3. And the last thing I want to do is mess anything up. Atlest with the evo 4g I didn't have to worry about different carriers and what not.

The changes made should work. So basically if you compared the changes of this to their stock rom here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1825272 and then applied the same changes to our stock rom, it would work. BUT their files as is will not work.
Basically, it would probably take about 15 minutes for someone to do if they knew what they were doing. I however don't have 15 minutes to spend on this so I can't help right now lol.

That's ok, as long as I know that it'll work. When I get to my PC I'll look it over and hopefully not break anything. Lol

so what I would do is download their stock deodex and extract the files that are included in the mod.
Then, decompile the .jars and apks that were modded and the stock version
Run winmerge on them to see exactly what they changed
Then make those exact changes to our stock deodex rom. So you will need to decompile 3 sets of files and recompile 1 set.

I got apktool installed and decompiled framework.jar where it creates a folder called smali. The problem is, I can't view any of the contents from within it. If I go to properties it states contents "nothing" yet shows free space as being 66.7 GB. So I know that there's something in there, I'm just not allowed to view the contents. I read somewhere that you need a text editor?
I did all this on a Linux machine (Mint 13.) I'm gonna try it on a windows PC next just to see what happens.
Edit: I found out that by changing .jar to .apk and then decompiling it allowed me to view the contents. Now I'm sitting at trying to open the TextView.smali. lol
Edit 2: for some reason it's not working for the JellyWiz rom. It's still not showing the contents from within the samli folder.

Stock Android 2.3.5 APK's needed.

I have searched xda over and cannot find where to download a couple of apk files. I've seen people mention them in places but no where to download. So I have an idea floating around in my head and need two apks to see if I can make it work... needed are...
1. Stock touchwiz apk for android 2.3.5 that was on the skyrocket out of the box.
2. Gallery3d apk that also came stock on the 2.3.5 out of the box.
If anyone has these or knows where I can download them from either upload or send me a link.
If I can get my idea to work I will then post it and give some kudos to whoever helps with these files...

what im trying to do id get the issue with the wallpaper resizing fixed for those who dont want to install a custom rom. my idea is it worked fine on 2.3.5 so i just have to figure out what the difference is in the code and whether its a gallary problem or a touchwiz problem or a little of both. ive tried every launcher on the market so im hoping the problem is the gallary and i can take the apk from 2.3.5 and drop it in the system app root folder and it work. if that dont work ill have to start looking into the code and see if there is a difference. its all wrote in java so i know java from my computer programing days... but there has got to be a way to make it work....

Those apk's are stock, not deodexed. So if you are planning on dropping them in a custom rom, I think you will have to deodex them. Or I can upload the deodexed versions if you need them.

I'm running ucle2 and can't resize wallpaper other than cwm recovery and rooted and debloated I am stock. So do you think they need to be deodexed for stock ucle2? I'm not installing the touchwiz as a matter of fact I hope I don't need it but if I do it will just be to look at the code and see how it differs from ucle2 touchwiz if any at all. I'm hoping I can drop the apk and odex file in the root system app folder replacing the ucle2 with the 2.3.5 gallery and I'm hoping it run it and I can once again resize wallpaper and have ucle2. I like to have my cake and eat it too...

no, if you're stock you don't want deodex, so you're good. No idea if it will work, though. Lol

Kinda yea. Didn't know there was a forum for it already. My hope is that it will work without any changing code you know keep it simple until simple don't work... I noticed last night that both 2.3.5 and ucle2 both use the same touchwiz30 so maybe I'll get away with simple....
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
Well of course simple hasn't worked so now I'm about to check code.. oh what fun. When I drop the 2.3.5 apk in the system app folder it opens for a short few seconds and force closes. I've tried fix permissions and of course wiped cache and dalvick cache so its close to working but close just isn't good enough... but I have not gave up yet. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated....

[Q] How do you get Google Now to work???

I'm brand new to the SIII, switched from a Rezound yesterday. I'm rooted, unlocked and running CleanRom. I know others have gotten Google Now to work but I'm at a loss for device specific install instruction! This is what I did and had no luck, kept getting force closes and black screens: downloaded the m7_velvet.apk to extsd....rename as 'GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk.....replace in /system/ app....change the permissions to read,write,execute/read,execute/read,execute....rebooted. Any help would be awesome!!

Very true, not going to complain too much and all I had to do was drop a few files. I renamed all the other folders/files it was supposed to overwrite so all is good, didn't need to take a nandroid or anything. Pretty nifty feature to have and takes stock rooted one step closer to JB.

[Q] 1% Battery Icon Help

I'm on stock 4.0.4, rooted... UOT Kitchen isn't working for me, as my phone uses SystemUI.apk instead of the framework for my statusbar icons. So what I did was I went through the steps at the Kitchen to get my UOT zip, unzipped and pulled the images and xml files. I then added the 200+ battery icons to my drawable-hdpi folder from systemui (using 7zip), and then added the xml files to the drawable folder.
I did this once before, and after clearing the dalvik, battery stats and cache, it worked...but this time my battery icon has disappeared altogether.
I put the images and xml files in the framework as well just to be sure...but no go. I've tried a couple different attempts from UOT but nothing. I even tried rom toolbox, but apparently it doesn't replace the xml files.
I read something about the kernel maybe affecting this...Is that true?
Is there a Kernel that is stable that I can use on stock ICS?
I have searched and searched, but cannot find a good answer to this, so please don't go off about the search button. The kernels all seem to be older, and the last one I tried to flash that was supposed to work left me with a reflash.
Oh, and the stock rom I'm on has been deodexed and zip aligned..
Thanks in advance!
PS.. I have been researching kernels, but they list things that I am unfamiliar with, or don't know if I want...etc...but I want this to work, and I would love for custom boot animations to work through rom toolbox and such. Also I know I could decompile the xml's to fix the battery, but I'm having trouble with Java on my laptop at the moment. If anyone is on stock with 1% battery icons, if you could extract and post the xml's that would be great...!
UOT kitchen supports GB/ICS ROMs, including TouchWiz ones. You just need to upload SystemUI.apk, framework.res and twframework.res - and you'll get a flashable ZIP.
I was under impression it's very clearly stated there.
It is, but I always get the stf....something..error when I include my systemui.APK...
In any case the xml files the kitchen gives me should still work..because the folder hierarchy is the same as the framework-res.APK...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
Every APK has the same folder structure. It doesn't mean that the files from one will work on another.
You might have taken one XML too many. Battery icons don't hurt anything, wrong XMLs can.
Also you need to be deodexed for it to have any effect, so I'm assuming you're running deodexed stock root?
Battery icons, I think, are in the twframework_res.apk, not in Systemui.apk
Also, on a tw rom a lot of the default images have a tw_ prefix.

Because it didn't show the 1% increments...only the several that are default.
I went and reflashed a uot zip I had previously, and it seems to have corrected the xml...works again. Not sure why flashing it worked but not manually replacing the xml..

Ok so I decided to get off the stock rom and this morning flashed to Vincom's Superlite CM10 JB rom..
And I'll be darned if I'm back to square one with this..
I have searched and searched for hours and cannot find a legitimate 1% battery mod that works for Skyrocket and this Rom...Yet there does seem to be a plethora out there for other phones..
Does anyone have a clear-cut solution for this, aside from manually compiling/decompiling? Anyone? Is there a mod that would work for this phone?
CM10 includes a circle mod 1% battery mod already.

What's wrong with just the percentage battery? Are you strictly looking for a circle? He probably just hasn't updated his base build since the circle mod was a fairly recent addition to CM10. You could always just flash CM10. But in all reality there are a ton of battery mods out there, all of which are 1%. I duno why you can't find any.

It's not really about which icons.. it's about the capability to have them..
The are a ton of mods, that's for sure... but none for this phone that still work.. because the ics folders apparently changed..
Not to say they would not work with jb, but I can't find a clear answer to that..

Looking to Develop

Hey everyone, just thought I'd give a little short intro about myself before i get to the point so no one bombs me for being a noob or anything. I've been around since the DroidX days so I'd say I'm pretty experienced when it comes to rooting and hacking and roms and all. I have done some tweaks back in the day with the Droid Bionic mostly so I know my way around that. Now, in the Android Development section PureMotive started a thread on how to port roms and I thought I'd give it a try. I've been wanting to develop something at least for a long time now and I thought i'd start by porting something. So getting to the point now
I have selected a rom from the AT&T side. It is a TW JB rom. I have made sure i followed his directions to the t. Now about the rom, It succesfully boots and everything is working...except it won't recognize the sim card. It's live on the Verizon Network, however, my number doesnt show up and there is no data. I was wondering if anyone would like to help me out with this.
Thanks so much everyone and I look forward to releasing something in the near future!
if you experience no signal, data, etc - open framework-res.apk from the ROM you want to port (ex. At&t rom) in 7zip and locate eri.xml and delete it. Then open framework-res.apk from the base ROM (ex. Verizon rom) and take eri.xml from that ROM and put it in the framework-res.apk of the ROM you want to port.

[Q] Herc JB Rom on I727 autorotate issue

Same issue as ICS. Running the Herc t989 rom on the i727. I've tried replacing files and I still cant get it to work (replaced the matching file names from the ICS fix).
The autorotate fix here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1592170&highlight=rotation+fix fixed me on ICS. Reading his post again, it sounds like a fix that is more than just a driver change. Anyone have a solution? I tried the search and a flood of nothing for Jellybean.
Also copy over sensor libs and hardware.so and hardware_legacy.so. It works fine that way. I just pull them from our CM10.1.
You rock, I'll try that tonight. I tried pulling from the stock i727 image and it didnt work. Totally didnt think about pulling the drivers from CM10
Tried copying sensorservice libakm and libsensorservice. (used the latest snapshot). Booted to the samsung screen and hangs.
Replaced the files back and it boots.
I re-read your post and forgot to copy libhardware.so. I'll try that again including the libhardware.so and update later.
Which sensor libs should I pull? I pulled the hardware legacy and hardware.so and the sensor.default.so from /hw still sticks at loading screen.
lib/hw/sensors.default.so and sensor.goldfish.so
EDIT: Are you packaging one of our kernels with it? If not that's your issue.
That is probably it.
This is out of curiosity, with 4.0.4 I did not have to flash the matching kernel. (I was running t989 with the t989 kernel with the mod installed). I would think the kernel is just calling the modules... is that not a correct assumption?
Build.prop

What line in the build.prop do I edit to get rid of the status 7 if flashing a Herc ROM to a Skyrocket?

Its not in the build prop its in the updater script and its the assert lines normally the first two or so lines.

Don't get used to him lol. Any text editor will handle an updater. Extract a ROM zip go to META-INF/com/Google/android/updater-script. In that script you will see assert get rid of the lines associated with it basically anything referring to the herc.

Word of warning, use Notepad ++ or another Unix format capable text editor. Windows notepad and similar free text editors wont store the proper carriage returns, and will save the wrong extended ASCII codes for characters that you wont notice.

Back when I used windows I used notepad without a hitch but I'm sure it's a risk.

And that assured me everything is right in the world. lol
As far as the editor of choose I use notepad++. Also, remember that playing with build.props and updater-scripts is dangerous kids. Have that backup ready to go just in case.

Backup phone or nandroid backup. Is wanting to use white hawk s AOKP milestone release, but I think toyes may dropping it soon. Just a hunch! Thanks for the help though for future reference does the edit need to be done on a computer or can it be done on the phone?

A nand. lol The worse you can do is bootloop. It's pretty easy to do playing with the build.prop though.
So did you get the rotation working using a t989 rom and t989 kernel on JB?

Work has kept me from finishing up. So far I replaced all the files from the original mod and the hardware and legacy modules and autorotate still doesnt work.
In the old day the final piece always was flash another kernel, up until I did the mod I originally posted. It didnt require a kernel flash. I'm really trying to figure out the secret to why there is the disconnect between flashing vs not flashing the kernel.
BTW: It makes sense to flash the kernel as well, so no dispute there. I'll download the stock JB Kernel for the 727 and try it to see. I'm just worried about my wificalling. It has a few modules that are loaded in the 989 kernel if I recall correctly.
