Can someone help me? For the longest time I've been running Android Keyboard because HTC's keyboard just doesn't work for me any more. Now I want to get it fixed because Android's keyboard is just miserable.
Every time I click on the HTC Keyboard to type it force closes immediately. Anyone know what that's attributed to?

I may need to try this, since my AppManager seems to not be working properly. After I run the uninstall script, do I just put the extracted HTC_IME.apk in the root folder of my SD card to run the install script?
EDIT: Okay, figured this out! I just put the HTC_IME.apk from the CM-4.1.11.1 ROM zip in my C:\ folder, opened cmd, nav to C:\ and ran those commands. Now HTC_IME Touch Input works!
This was going to be a deal breaker, and I gave up and went back to 4.0.4 until I saw this thread. Thx for the help.
How the noob made it work
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=DGFGMI3I
Link above contains Clicker.apk, HTC_IME.apk, and libt9.so from cyanogen's 4.1.11.1 ROM
Code:
Adb remount
adb push \wateverlocation\libt9.so /system/lib
Then copy the clicker to /system/app... then use a FileManager on your phone to install.. I use ASTRO, its FREE...
you could also adb that, but don't recommend it.
Code:
adb push \wateverlocation\Clicker.apk /system/app
adb push \wateverlocation\HTC_IME.apk /system/app
I have tried what you have written, i have pushed it, but when i find it with the Astro manager i only get the option to UNinstall or details.
And when i try adb install from whateverlocation on pc i get:
Failure [INSTALL_PARSE_FAILED_UNEXPECTED_EXCEPTION]
I have Abyzou ROM.
Forget it, it is installed. But now it force closes before it even opens! What the?!
See post HERE for the properly working HTC_IME.
Also has the text to speech option.
Install as instructed and you should be golden
Nice, thanks! But you know what?? It is TOTALLY oversized! I have a tattoo!
Is this ever gonna end for me!
Very old mod. Probably no longer works. Use at own risk. No longer supported by me.
ROOT REQUIRED
ONLY works on ROMS that include HtcLockScreen.odex.
So it wont work if you've flashed lwp patches, Sprint ROMS or anything that removes the .odex file.

Originally created by JsChiSurf over in the Hero forums via my encouragement This version is made for the Eris, it is not the same as the Hero version (which doesn't work properly for us).
This is a modification of the STOCK HTC Sense lockscreen that removes the background so you can see your homescreen behind it.
*Users need to already be comfortable with using 'adb' I won't be providing support on that since there are numerous threads with instructions all around.*
**Before** pushing the apk into that folder, you'll need to FIRST perform the following steps to remove the stock lock wallpapers from loading, as well as any cached custom wallpaper you have applied. You can perform these via adb as listed, or if you have Root Explorer (on the marketplace), you can navigate to the folders listed and delete the items that way.
Code:
adb remount
adb shell
cd /data/misc/lockscreen
rm *
cd /system/customize/resource
rm htc_wallpaper*
exit
Note: You may or may not have anything to delete in /system/customize/resource, so if you get an error message while using adb, don't worry.
HtcLockScreen.zip MD5: 9423D8C3D6CBBF3E084CD185130F9649
*APK NOTE: APKs are case sensitive, be sure you install this without renaming it, or it wont overwrite your original APK*
After you extract the zip to your sdk/tools directory perform the following (case sensitive):
Code:
adb push HtcLockScreen.apk /system/app
adb reboot
If you get "read-only" errors, try "adb remount" OR "adb shell", then, "su", then "mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system" and then the other commands.
EDIT: Clock-less version now available for download! Same instructions apply.
Clock-less Info: **Since some users may have performed the 'experienced users' steps below, an Android image has been added to 'lockscreen_topedge.png' so that it isn't 100% transparent.
If you want to remove this image: First, download the ZIP below with the PNGs, take any one of those and rename it to 'lockscreen_topedge.png, open the lock apk in your favorite zip file manager (winzip, winrar, 7-zip), navigate to "res\drawable-normal-mdpi" and drag your newly-renamed PNG in there. If a dialog pops up, be sure you select the option that has NO compression, this is usually called "Store."**
Make a post if you have any problems NOT related to 'adb.' Again, support is not provided for that.
Clockless Lock.zip MD5: B604B530E02C47DA81AD8B4563BE71D2
__________________
Now some optional additional steps for **experienced users only** (I suck at tech support so if you ask something, I'll try to answer, but no guarantees):
If you put the PNGs included in the zip below into 'com.htc.resources.apk\res\drawable-mdpi', it will remove the HTC "Arc" on the lockscreen. Now, to create your own Arc replacement, all you'll need to do is go into 'HtcLockScreen.apk\res\drawable-normal-mdpi' and change the lockscreen_topedge.png to your liking A much easier change than fiddling with your resources apk everytime and its only 1 image to change, instead of trying to line up three. Of course, if you remove the Arc and do not change your lockscreen_topedge.png, you will have a completely invisible lockscreen, so don't freak yourself out, just make something for that PNG.
*Does not seem to work with Hero or Legend ROMs*
I've used adb push (to change my boot animation) but I can't say I know how to use it.
Can you specify which commands to use?
EDIT: do you have to have root for this?
Yes you have to have root. You would do 'adb install HtcLockScreen.apk'.

waahhh no X_X this isn't an app to be installed. you are overwritting the old one (after youve backed up!) the "install" command installs to data/app, which isn't what we want (but thanks for keepin an eye on the thread for me wshuman3 )
if you put the apk in your sdk\tools directory, then the command would be
Code:
adb push HtcLockScreen.apk system/app
you were correct about needing root tho
oh sweet!
one question though, what if your phone is locked? will it still show the homescreen?

please read the first post again before you post. your question is answered in both the thread title as well as the second line.

no no no... okay I admit, i worded that question wrong.
if you phone is password protected, as in locked down, with the graphical password and all that. will it still show the homescreen?

i believe it should still show you the home screen, considering with the normal lock app by htc in order to unlock it with the dot pattern, you have to pull the slider down, then it shows you the pattern. so going off of that, then it should still do the same thing, but instead of showing a pic on the lock screen, it shows the home screen, then you slide it down to unlock, which i would assume that it would then pop up the dot pattern.
ECLIPS3's explanation is entirely correct. locking will not hide your homescreen. but then, if someone wanted to see your homescreen with the normal lockscreen, they would just have to slide down the Arc most of the way and they'd see most of it. not secure either way.
but i dont think thats what you were even worried about Lemcott. but explained it anyway
yep, you got it I'm not really worried about them seeing the homescreen (oh no! they saw my poor organizational skills! I'm ruined! haha) I just have my phone locked done mainly because my friends and I have a pretty long running epic war to change each other's facebook status'/tweets to very embarrassing things, nosey family members, and just in case i ever forgot it somewhere.
cant wait till i get my new phone in tomorrow and patch this sucker on. speaking of which, if i were to patch this after flashing on Jamezelle's sense-abloe 2.0, would it look just like the normal htc lock screen just transparent? or will it look like sense-able's lock screen but transparent?

it will look like the normal lock screen, just transparent. but you could edit the transparent lock screen to look like jameselles, just transparent. im sure someone would be willing to do that for you. i might, just dont have time right now.
I'll give it a whirl, but if anyone wants to race me be my guest, I'm pretty noobish when it comes to android/linux, but I'll give it my best.

99.9% sure your senseable lock would be in-tact, just transparent. since your senseable lock's graphics are stored in com.htc.resources.apk and this is only a change to your HtcLockScreen.apk
Running Ivan's 0.8T2, works like a charm. Thanks!
For all of those confused on how to install this, you simply unzip HtcLockscreen.zip on your computer, follow the instructions in the first post, then you:
Code:
adb remount
adb push HtcLockScreen.apk /system/app
adb reboot
and when your phone boots back up, you'll be looking at a shiny new transparent lockscreen.

When I try this I always get the nexus 1 lock screen. I'm running Ivan's latest build.
I will try again on a fresh flash since I have been messing with stuff.
Edit: OK, fresh flash without wiping allowed me to change to the Transparent Lock Screen. Thanks gohamstergo.
btw, I have no idea what I changed to not allow this mod.
@silver: not sure but youre not the only one with the issue. no idea what causes it. seems rare tho
AWW, I thought I was special.
But, If anyone ever needs any "rare issues or bugs" found....
Thanks for posting this!
Would anyone consider making a "lockscreen" that is nothing BUT a photo/walpaper?
No clock, no arc, nothing?
Maybe just a "walpaper" or photo?
Or even better- Truly Transparent!
That would be cool!

If read the "advanced" directions in the OP, it basically explains how to do this, even though he was trying to tell you how to AVOID doing that. but I agree, I'd like it too. It would almost be like a security feature cuz only you would know where to swipe to unlock
I've searched around a bit (maybe not as long as I should've), but I don't see how to remove the stock bloatware apps that come with this phone.
Can someone point me to a guide, or give me a quick run down?

Maybe I'll try that. Do you have to actually do a backup/restore process before you can remove them? Or can you just remove them from the app itself?

You could do that but then ur left with a /data/data folder for ur app and its name under packages.xml.
The other thing that kills me is that a lot of these apps keep popping up for now reason. I run "Advanced Task Killer" on a frequent basis, but I'll find apps like "Slacker" sitting there, taking up memory.
I know a lot of these apps are set to run on startup.... but why are they just starting up at random times?
I feel like I have so little control over this phone... it actually scares me. I knew everything my WinMo phone was doing at all times.

I went to Samsung Firmwares and got the UGJG8 firmware and flashed that using Odin and 512.pit. You will get a 100% bone stock i9000m with no bloatware.
Just remember to write down your current APN settings as you will have to readd them.

Got it.
Now, is that a script I need to write for each app? I haven't even gone so far as to explore the file system, let alone write scripts. Is there a good (recommended) app for putting scripts together? ...or are you just using a notepad type editor in Windows, then copying them over via SD card?

Sure u can write a quick .bat script that does this or manually enter them in command-prompt up 2 u. Btw, what exactly is ur issue with the bloat-software ? is it the space its taking up ? or being shown in app drawer ? Cuz if ur using launcher-pro u can hide those apps from the drawer. Honestly they don't take up tht much space.

Well, the biggest thing is that they're actually running without me opening them (eg: Slacker). That is really starting to piss me off. Secondly, they are very clutter-some. I don't have Launcher Pro, though I've heard good things about it. Is this something I get from the Marketplace? It runs instead of the Samsung interface, right?
**EDIT**
Just found "LauncherPro" on the Market. Looks good, but many are complaining the latest version is laggy/buggy and has obnoxious ad placement.
Does anyone have the next most recent version?

Hi guys
sorry for this stupid question in this section of XDA but i'm going mad with the adb shell..
Can someone explain to me the "right way" for uninstall and then install a stystem application in the system directory?
what is the difference between the commands "rm" and "pm uninstall"?
i'm testing it with the swype app (for exemple) and i see that if I use "rm /system/app/swype.apk" the app on the phone is gone and for install again I can use the cp command and copy the app in the system folder...
why i have to use the pm unisntall too? is there some difference?
(i also try to use only the "pm uninstall" without "rm /system/app/swype.apk" first and it fails...)
viceversa if i cp the app in the system/app folder i will see swype on the phone working and i dont need to pm install it!
(if i try to pm install it i receive a failure message about INSUFFICIENT_STORAGE_something like this...but i dont need to pm install APPARENTLY because on the phone i see the app working)
can u help me understand those mecanichs? thanks
If u have time to wast maybe u can check THIS thread about adb remount too...another big trouble...
really thanks
Ivan
up...please...is there someone than can try to explain this to me? . _.
rm only deletes the executable, uninstall removes the application related settings + user/system files. same for install.
Search "system app remover" in market. It was created for this purpose.

Is it possible to get bootsounds working on my
Cm7 hero. I have tried a few zips I have found.
I get errors every time
Any help would be appreciated
Too busy to post it. It works. I have the files. Pm me and ill help later.
I would actually like to know how to do that as well.
OK here it is. I don't know if this works on sense, but it does work on AOSP based ROMs. Take the mp3 below and put it in /system/media, it's the THX movie bootup sound (I think). You can change it to whatever you want later. Take the sh file and put it on the root of your sd. Once both of those things are done, do this EXACTLY:
-open terminal emulator
-type "su" press enter
-type "cd /sdcard" press enter
-type "sh bootsnd.sh" press enter ONLY ONE TIME !!!
-type "reboot"
EDIT: no quotes obviously...
If you follow this, it will work. If you get smart and change it, or press enter twice where it says once, it will hose your /system. Oh, you should probably NANDROID FIRST.
Peace.

OMG! Yes! I love messing with terminal emulator. It makes me feel smarter than I actually am, lol. Thanks for the quick response.
Quick question - You said we should be able to change it afterwards so does that mean after we follow the steps you so graciously provided we should then be able to find an .mp3 somewhere in /system that can simply be replaced with another .mp3? for example maybe in /system/media/audio......?
You can use any mp3 you want.

question about changing the sound file does it matter the size or whether its an mp3 or a wma file. just overwrite the one i placed during setup? do i have to rerun the TE commands if i change the sound file? thanks for any answers to this

Lol at your wife. You have to use mp3 only, memory size doesn't matter, but I think length does I think you want one that isn't too long, though I never tried a long one. < TWSS lmao. You dont need to redo the commands, unless you flash a new rom. Then you have to redo the whole thing.

Any mp3 file will work as long as its renamed to android_audio.mp3 and placed in /system/media. I recommended an mp3 file no longer than 20-30 seconds at the most. I'm not sure if wma files will work as that's a windows file.
You do not need to run the commands in TE again unless you nandroid back or possibly wipe everything.
Note: This is just from my own personal experience. I'm not a developer or anything and I take no responsiblilty if you screw up your phone. I hope this helps and don't forget to nandroid first
EDIT: lol sorry Duce, you posted sometime in the middle of me typing on my phone
