PLEASE GO TO MY OTHER LINK, ALL INCAP'D in an UPDATE.ZIP!!!
FOR SAPPHIRE
I read a post earlier about fixing some apps not working.
in build.prop
change to 4 instead of 5.
ro.build.version.sdk=4
Did this and re-ran part 1 and part 2. Works fine with Handcent and facebook app working. haven't got any FC with other apps and navigation still working after a few hours and some reboots.
Uploaded a new .rar with changes to build.prop
http://www.mediafire.com/?jwhmkzay2mm
Extract All to Desktop
Run part 1 - when prompted hit any key and phone will reboot.
when up and running, run part 2.
Test nav by opening google maps and geting directions. Underneath "Show on Maps" you should see "Navigate" If you don't try installing Google Voice (fixed it for a lot of people)
If you did the above and Navigate isn't working, here is a link to the build.prop version that causes some app errors but gets nav Working

Thank for putting this all together - i'll try it later on today.
Quick question though, why would you wipe after you install the rooted base? Would that not defy the point of installing the rooted base in the first place? Shouldn't it be: 1. Wipe, 2. rootedbase.zip, 3. Reboot, 4. cynwmap.zip?

Yeah that looks correct to me. My understanding was 1. Wipe 2. Flash base 3. Reboot in recovery again 4. Flash Cynwmap
Also: If we already are already running CM 4.2.3.1 can we just flash the cynwmap.zip over the top without worrying about flashing the base again?
if i wanted to just run part 1.bin how would i do this? i tried and i got some errors about the files not existing.

That should work to push the correct buid props, the reason that the rooted base was put in there, was to add the maps to the original package...
I'm going to modify this later tonight to make it just a patch update deal...
Got a micro-bio test in the AM
and yes, i had the first two instructions fliped.. i'll edit to correct it.
What are the odds Cyanogen puts something like this in the next update?
I hope so
ps, first post, been rooted and running Cyanogenmod for a week or so now, really digging it.

Well is there a way to make a quick patch job of it for noobs like myself?
I tried this exactly was instructions said...but couldn't get navigation...
I went to "get directions" and typed in the addresses and whatnot, but didn't get any navigation? Maybe someone can enlighten me (isn't it supposed to be turn by turn voice?). Thanks
no offense to the Original Poster but...
can anyone else confirm that this actually works?
i really want Google Maps Nav on my phone!!!
Thanks again to the OP for this.
EDIT!

did you get a prompt to download the voices??
theomajigga said:

Click to expand...

No...nothing of the sort. It just looked like the normal Google Maps app to me
My steps EXACTALLY
Ok here's what I did, and its only for the **mt3g** (possibly the sapphire)
1. used amon's recovery and partitioned my card 3 ways.
2. enabled USB mass storage from recovery
3. Wiped
4. choose update ---> rooted base.zip
5. reboot right into recovery
6. wipe again (probably repetitive)
7. choose update ---> cyan w map.zip
8. wipe again for good measure (again probably repetitive)
9. reboot
at this point i get the familiar cyan boot, it goes into the setup and says welcome to droid.
I skip all setup because I have to use wifi, probably not relevant but that is what I do.
Enable wifi.
click on maps (which you will see has a different logo now)
enter 2 USA addresses
click get directions
it finds directions and right under show on map, it says navigate.
clicked on navigate.
I then get prompted to download voices, click download
sign-in to google shiz
download voice pacakage
rerun maps and do a directions again
click navigate
EDIT:
There is a possibility that you will have to clear the data that is stored in the applications:
Settings
Applications
scroll to maps
Click on clear data
done.

If this works, there is a couple more changes I am going to make, but I first want to see if people can get this working.
This guide attempts to solve the following problems:-
1. The menu and home buttons' keypresses are detected but the respective actions aren't executed.
2. The lockscreen doesn't get activated.
3. The power menu has only reboot and power off as options. The rest of the options like Airplane Mode and Profiles.
PREREQUISITES:
1. ADB
2. SQLITE3
FIX:
1-Copy sqlite3 to /system/bin
2- chmod 777 /system/bin/sqlite3
3-Type following command in ADB or Terminal Emulator
Code:
sqlite3 /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db "INSERT INTO secure (name,value) VALUES ('device_provisioned','1');"
4- Reboot
5- Done
This guide is based upon this post.
Have you tested this? Does this fix the anoying bug when you press menu and nothing happens so you have to press 2-3 times? Will the phone wake on back/menu press? Mine takes 2-3 clicks to wake with menu/back key, this is not the case with eclair.
2. The lockscreen doesn't get activated. - What do you mean by this? Is it when the lockscreen takes 1-2 seconds to appear after waking the phone? - this doesn't happen to me anymore thankfully.

I think u misunderstood...
*Sometimes due to a weired bug in android, there are only 4 options in extended power menu..Power Off,Reboot,Recovery n Download.
*Home button does not works at all.
*Lock-screen is completely gone.
*Power menu just turns on the screen
*Sleep mode is gone.
U can search for the same problem over google but there was no sure shot solution... But now there is..
I myself faced it few times while cooking the roms and each time u face this bug, there is no other way than start from zero again....
Had the same problem ages ago.
It occurs if you remove SetupWizard.apk.
Leave it be, do a factory reset and all will be well.

that's no bug. it's the normal behavior of froyo that you have to do a double click on the "outside buttons" to wake up the phone.

Exactly! thats why i prefer triboot/dualboot
Is it possible to include this fix in a rom?
Or to do it in recovery with a update.zip?
this is not even needed thomas You have deleted setupwizard.apk from system/app I think. If you delete that apk this happens just place it back. If you apply this but do not have the setupwizard.apk in your system it will come back after a while
I dont deleted it but maybe it is because i deodexed the rom... I wil try to replace it

thanks! this totally saved my @ss.
I am on a SE Xperia Arc, rooted with CWM recovery, and a generic firmware 4.1.B.0.431.
I went into recovery mode and reset the phone, wiping everything. After that, this exact same problem appeared (home button non-functioning, no lock screen, etc...) Also, the phone would not receive calls! Data was working and was able to receive messages that way, and was able to dial out.
A few tips for people running this fix to save some time.
How to run an ADB terminal command line? Don't bother.
1. Just install something like Root Explorer.
2. copy sqlite3 to the /system/bin directory ON YOUR PHONE
3. change the permissions (that's that chmod 777 means)
4. give owner and group read and write permissions
5. IMPORTANT. copy the fix.sh (it's a script) to the ROOT of the phone. not /sdcard, but ROOT
6. just click on the fix.sh and select "excute) and the script will run and you will see output saying (done, reboot) or something.
good luck! and thanks for everybody's help!
rooted device
Hallo, in advance - sorry for my English (haven't spoke nor written for long time)
Do I need rooted device to go through arunmcops's procedure? I have galaxy Y pro (b5510) and after rooting then unrooting and factory reset, I have the same issue when home button doesn't react... Thanx in advance for any response.
Hi!
I have just encountered this bug (on my I9300) and tried to apply your fix, but sqlite crashes saying
Code:
soinfo_relocate(linker.cpp:1013): cannot locate symbol "sqlite3_load_extension" referenced by "sqlite3" ... CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE
... what can I do?
I am sure all files have the right permissions, but apart from that I wasn't even able to find that error on google :/
hahaha nevermind... It worked the first time I tried it, I just had to reboot and actually turn the lockscreen on
I'm fairly new to the xda community... So I'm hoping this works for others like it worked for me. I tried about 20 different modded phone apks that were supposedly designed to work for 160dpi setting on AOKP and CM9 roms and I was just about to give up when I stumbled across one that actually works!!! Directions are pretty simple...
1. Download phone.apk file from below
2. move to root of sd card
3. In root explorer (or any file browser with root access) go to /system/app and rename original phone.apk to phone.apk.bak
4. Copy and paste new phone.apk in /system/app
5. Reboot phone and enjoy
No need to change app permissions to -rw-r--r--
UPDATE!!!! For those of you that prefer a flashable zip, Mr. Apocalypse was kind enough to upload one in post #12 of this thread
If you run into any problems let me know and I'll try to help with troubleshooting.

It replaces the stock phone app... The stock phone app will crash on any LCD density below 200 dpi. This modded phone app will run on the lower densities so you can use the 160 dpi setting and still be able to make/receive phone calls without a FC error.

It's nothing major... Just a fix for a force close error when using the phone app on different LCD densities. A lot of ppl like the look of 160 dpi and 128 dpi (tablet mode) but you lose call functionality as a consequence... This fixes that issue.
Also... If you decide to return the phone to stock LCD density there's no need to revert back to the old phone apk... This one will work in all densities from 128-240 dpi. (I haven't tried anything larger than 240 yet... IDK why anyone would though )
Ah, okay got it..

thankyou so much! fixed my issue wondered why it kept crashing when it was lower than 200 lol
I'll try it out. That FC pop up gets annoyings as stopping and clearing data after every reboot gets annoying lol.
Does this permanently replace the stock phone apk?
I can't get anything to work. Not the rename, not the copy and past. Nothing.

Make sure the /system folder is mounted as read/write before you do this... If your file explorer app doesn't have the option to give you root access you can mount /system by using terminal emulator.
Use the following commands:
su
busybox mount -o remount,rw /system

Lol, jk, attached is a flashable, uses the same Phone.apk in the OP for those who's having trouble with the push process.
I personally haven't tested it, but it should help with those who are.
Thanks I'll give that a go. Can I flash this directly to the appropriate file or do I need to move it after flashing?

Didn't find any working package so I started browsing the Android source.
I think I found the root of this problem:
https://github.com/AOKP/packages_apps_Phone/blob/ics/res/layout/incall_touch_ui.xml#L52
Code:
<!--
(1) incomingCallWidget: the UI displayed while an incoming call is ringing.
See InCallTouchUi.showIncomingCallWidget().
Layout notes:
- Use an opaque black background since we need to cover up
a bit of the bottom of the contact photo
- The verticalOffset value gets us a little extra space above
the topmost "Respond by SMS" icon
- [b]The negative layout_marginBottom shifts us slightly downward;
we're already aligned with the bottom of the screen, but we
don't have an icon in the downward direction so the whole
bottom area of this widget is just wasted space.[/b]
-->
<com.android.internal.widget.multiwaveview.MultiWaveView
android:id="@+id/incomingCallWidget"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
[b]android:layout_marginBottom="-46dp"[/b]
android:background="@android:color/black"
android:visibility="gone"
I guess this -46dp is too much and needs to be lowered a bit.

Yes but you have to be rooted and have a custom recovery installed to flash the zip that removes it. You can find the zip in the theme and app section.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=33655756&postcount=2
I long press in the notification pull down, select app info, and force close. Works good until you reboot.
This is a simple utility i made with a few features including the new screen recording found in 4.4 Kitkat. Though this is a utility, this will NOT root, flash a recovery, or anything like that. There is already a great tool from Wugfresh for those things that can be found HERE.
Download: http://prshosting.org/ftp/N7_Utility.zip
PLEASE NOTE THIS IS WINDOWS ONLY!
What does it do?
4.4 Screen recording with default or custom settings
Pull videos from the device and put them on the computer
Backup multiple things to the computer
Why did i make this?
I enjoy making things that may make some peoples device use easier. Also since there is no sd card slot, if something were to happen and a complete refresh was in order, everything from the internal storage would be wiped (this happened to me once). I know most of you probably have better means of backing up stuff like this, but if i can just help a few people, then this is worth it
