[Q] Hardware buttons don't work on OmniROM - HTC Pico (Explorer)

Hi at all,
I just installed [KTU84P][ROM][aw3som3]OmniROM ~ 04July2014 on my Pico and got a problem with my touch buttons. While "back" works fine, there is no reaction when I am using the home, menu and search buttons.
Is that problem known and what can I do to fix it? A fresh installation wasn't successfull.
Thank you in advance!

You have to edit the ROM manifest files in order to get your keys working. It requires a good Linux enrivonment. I suggest you to flash another ROM.

Simple how-to run android from windows

TO ALL PEOPLE:
PLEASE STOP POSTING IN THIS TOPIC ABOUT "THIS PART DOESN'T WORK ECC ECC" WRITE IN THE TOPIC OF THE RELEASE (KERNEL OR SYSTEM), PLEASE LOOK IN THIS THREAD FOR WORKING SETUPS AND TRICKS, AND SEARCH ON THE FORUM BEFORE POSTING!
I start with thread with a information for all users:
Haret system sucks so if you want a full working android system left windows behind you and move to the new android world flash on nand.
With this how-to you will not erase any part of your system but you do at your own risk.
Main problem: screen
For polaris there are 3 type of screen. Usually pola100 (the old one) use panel 1, and pola 200 (09 edition) has panel 3 but ... not always works...
The best mode to test is try to install and after double reboot you have black screen change panel type.
What you need:
phone
sd card (1 Gb or more) 500 mb free
time

Do we have to delete/remove the install-seq.sh after installation?
Are both files (system & data) cleared with the installation script?
Thanks for the help.
install-seq.sh disable automatically after correct install.
This how-to is fir first install on disk on images so it format both data an system.
If you want to make only un update use bsg select partion and select update.
partition
I believe you should make this sticky

hi there..
i solved the problem..i took an older Z image..and working fine
the problem is that more applications like camera..media player screen adjust don't work..
they try to run..(i mean ..in camera..i can see..but appears a messages with stop working..sorry). i don't know why..
nothing work well
and what about the contacts..how can i get them from my Sim card?
i don't know..
if you can help me will be great.
thx allot for yours assistance.
best regards.
The information from sim card are very limitated (neither pin code works) so if you want to export contact sync before starting with google and configur your google account on android.
old zimage are full of bugs and all developers install android on nand so starting android from haret has many unfixed bugs.
I've been playing around with the haret install for a week or so now, and I've found that, for me at least, it makes a huge difference which initrd.gz file I use.
The one dated 22-05-10 doesn't let me install any zImages newer than 29-04-10. After trying all sorts of combinations of base files with different dates (haret, zImage) and additions to the default.txt, changing the initrd.gz file to the one dated 20-02-10 fixed most of my problems and lets me install the most recent zImage files without a glitch.
No clue why, just that it works.
I'm running a Pola100 with the original WM6.0 ROM still on it, and radio version 1.58.25.14. Yeah, I need to upgrade to at least the official WM6.1 ROM and probably something better. But I'm a newbie at this, so I need to work up some courage first ;-)
hello,
I tried to install android on sd following your instructions, everything seems to go well until the screen where it says:
"Welcome to htc vogue Frøya
touch the android to begin "
I'll try, but the touch does not work, I tried using the d-pad, which does work, but I can only select the language and the emergency call.
zImage as I used: zImage-Frøya-15-07-10
androidinstall.tar as I used: Incubus26Jc's Super Frøya RLS11 Themed
please help me because I would switch to Android!
thanks

where can I find it?
thanks
I tried it unsuccessfully. Boot starts regulary, always ending on repeating error, looping forever.
I can read something like:
==============
ERROR no local apt for prog ... replying anyway
...
Setting function 4 for gpio ... that I don't own
==============
Is it related to which system file ? Loader? Kernel ? Or what ?
Thanks
What did you use for your installation?
I used the files mentioned at the very beginning of this post.
Regarding zimage: zimage-24-05-10

[Q] mk16i HW keyboard config files

I sit at the computer for two days, just searching the solution, but nothig.
In the stock, .587 kernel based ROM, which files are the hardware-keyboard config files?
And second question.
Can i copy these files from the stock ROM, and paste it to another "cooked" one? My goal would be to fix the "sym" button, and the arrow keys.
Thanks.
I have the same problem. Did you find a solution ?

I just got my MK16i recently. And to my surprise, there's a mismatch on the physical keyboard of the phone. Anyway, it got it sorted out. Here's the thread on how to fix this.

Allesand developed HotFix for this if u use CM9 / cm10 or probably other, close to cyanogenmod, ROM on ICS/JB.
U need to download and literally follow procedure described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2094572
1. Download zip - keyboard and fix
2. Download qwerty-en (I assume u have qwerty-en keyboard type, if not - choose other) layout from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2094572
3. Puth both fokkers to the SD
4. Reboot into recovery
5. install from zip - kb & fix first, layout 2nd
6. Reboot to normal
7. Go to Settings->Kb & lang -> have the Default And Xperia marked both, HW keyboard leave as default (watch closely pics in link no 1)
8. set ur lang
9. Go to Apps -> KM Launcher - set it up according to screenshots from first link, if not working do some rebooting (remeber to grant SU rights)
10. Reboot, if needed until u make sure all KM Launcher settings are well working
11. Try it out...

[ROM DEV][UNOFFICIAL][OVATION][EMMC] Slimkat 4.4.4 build 8.1 *Experimental/Testing*

ROM:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/8...-4.4.4.build.8.1-UNOFFICIAL-20141001-2013.zip
MD5
http://www.mediafire.com/download/o...build.8.1-UNOFFICIAL-20141001-2013.zip.md5sum
***********SOURCE************
Kernel:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/oc2b51rpgblasbd/linux_omap_ovation.tar.gz
(Yellow Kernel v14 + exfat filesystem added)
Miscellaneous build files:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/0oszo0esv70xig0/slim.tar.gz
Known Issues:
Hardware 'n' key isn't mapped to do anything.
Although kernel supports f2fs, I haven't found a good way to incorporate f2fs into the ramdisk/init files to actually support mounting of f2fs filesystems yet (I'll have to take a look at how other slim devices do it).
I believe quake is broken (easy to remove under slimcenter).
Exfat fs remains untested (If anyone has a large sdcard...)
None of these issues have I spent much time on...
Only lightly tested. No warranties or guarantees.
A terminal app can be found in /system/addon.d/app
Thanks for building this for Ovation. I'll try it over the weekend.

OMGOMGOMGOMG. i am so glad to see this. i run slim on all my devices, and now the nook? hell yeah
thanks jon
Could someone post the zip download caption? Something like Slim-ovation-4.4.4.build.8.1-UNO..."
I won't be testing this at this stage, but I wanted to thank you for working on it. There's a good chance I will switch to it when it is more polished and stable, especially with f2fs support.
I have it up and running. All appears well thus far. Pretty snappy
Lookin good here (FYI I'm using TWRP 2.8). One question, I can't find where to turn on Advanced Power Menu features, like Reboot to Recovery. Yes, I activated Dev Options.

Go to settings/security/device administration/advanced reboot and choose either hide on lockscreen or show always. However, rebooting to recovery does not seem to work. When selecting it from the power menu, it just performs a regular device reboot.
Haven't tested everything but other than the reboot to recovery not working, the build seems pretty solid. Will continue to test further. I installed using TWRP 2.7.1, also flashed slim gapps 4.4.4 for build 8, which Slim team recommends. I used the mini gapps as opposed to full, I'd rather download the specific apps from PS as I need them.
OP, thanks again for giving us a new rom for a device where unfortunately, there are very few choices. :good: :good:

How does this ROM compare to Succulent's or 10.2 roms? I've kept my wife's Nook on 10.2 since it's been the most stable ROM I've found. Tried CM11 several times with her hating the builds due to FC and reboots. I've always reverted back to backup of 10.2 rom.

I haven't had any reboots so far, just the browser FC's which seem to be pretty universal across every rom i've tried. I'm going to play around some more...
Have been using it for a few hours, looks really good. Exfat is working for me too. Will take a look at the sources later, might try f2fs at some point. Have you thought about setting up a github ?
Happy to NOT see the theme engine in the list of running apps ! This is awesome !

Exfat support lost after unmount
I unmounted my 64 Gb microSD (exFat format) to copy some videos onto it (physically removed the card so I could put it in my PC's card reader). When I re-inserted the card, the nook couldn't mount it, saying the filesystem was unsupported. No problem mounting & reading the card after reboot. I suspect it's just something in the rc.init ? Will look into it later...
How would one map that hardware button?
Great rom, but force of habit to hit N instead of soft keys.
Also, I just like hardware, too.
Volume buttons are switched currently, too. Mapping them to the normal up/down and a working N will make this amazing.

The charging indicators and animations seem to be fine for me...and my volume is as expected in landscape mode. Wierd. I'm using Nova, are you?

Charging indicator working after restart.
Weirdest thing is... the N key is mapped to home in the keylayout. Why does the kernel not read it?
And also, it can wake the device.
Probably the easiest way to fix the 'n' key mapping would be to do a diff between /system/usr/keylayout between this rom and say, the 4.4.3 build. Or just change the files out altogether.
I believe I gave all the necessary source files to recreate the build as I had it, if anyone wants to work on it further. I could have spent an extra day and made it build 8.2, but I wanted to work on other things (changed out my harddrive immediately after posting the rom). In the next upcoming weeks I'll be experimenting with building several other rom flavors and perhaps do a little more kernel work as well.
Hey, wherever the muse leads...

I just tried replacing both keylayouts and keychars and it didn't seem to help the button mapping.

Soft key - Navigation Bar resize in Marshmallow

Does anyone have a solution for this?
Since I started using PureNexus Lollipop I just can't stand the big soft keys anymore
I tried editing SystemUI.apk, but :
1) I wasn't exactly sure what to change
2) It refused to work after reboot
If anyone has anything that would help me, I would be so happy. :fingers-crossed:
I have installed Cataclysm 6, it has this feature out of the box.
