Hi,
I've asked a couple of times in the past how to get the htc touch input chinese module on a phone using the new 2.2 ROMs appearing on this board. I'm running the stock rooted ROM 3.15.405.3 but it only includes European keyboards.
GOAPK.com, the Chinese android developer site, has a new ROM for 2.2 out as well which includes the keyboard and handwriting recognition I want, its called htc_cime. My question is how to extract just the IME files and add them to an existing installation as a zip or apk, or how to include the files and add them to the ROM to install from ROM Manager.
I've found an APK under the \system\app\HTC_IME.apk of the GoAPK ROM but it won't install on its own... I get a warning saying that "This is a system application, do you still want to replace it" but it fails saying "Application not installed". Is this the right file? What am I doing wrong, where are the IMEs stored inside a ROM? This file isn't present in any of the other ROMs, so I guess it might not be the right one.
Files:
The download page for the whole GoAPK ROM, you need to register and post before you can download. Their BBS is as annoying as their ROMs are...

Link to the APK I extracted from that ROM

Let me know if I should post any more information. There have been a few people asking for this in various forums, would appreciate learning to do it so I can teach others!
Why bother... Asian FroYo OTAs were released recently...
Mainly because I don't want to lose root. The only way to get an OTA is to unroot and downgrade to 1.31, correct? Or are there rooted Asian OTAs around somewhere?
There are several posts lying around explaining how to apply OTA updates and stay rooted... I think I wrote one myself...
Edit this file system\customize\MNS\default.xml in your rom.
<function name="default_IKB_settings_checked">
<set name="single">
<item name="checked_list_latin">English;Handwriting;CangJie;PinYin;Stroke;</item>
</set>

"Handwriting" namely htc touch input chinese module.
you should be make a rom, include HTC_IME.apk.
I'm sorry for my poor english.

Hello,
First post and allready asking stuff.
I'm starting on making themes and although I have read a lot of stuff I can't get it.
Major questions:
- Do I need to have a custom rom to make themes? Can I install a theme on a standard, factory clean android magic?
- What are those RC33, Rc30, etc... And how do I know what do I have?
At the moment I have a stock HTC magic 32A. The only non standard thing in it, is it's rooted.
The build number only says: CL#33743 (no RC stuff...).
Any help would be appreciate.
take a look at this thread...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=519924
Hey smurf... thnks for the answer.
I've allready readed that post (and most of the links in it), and still got the same questions.
They only talk about G1/dream and all those RCXX... The problem my magic says CL#33743. Am I missing something here? Do I need to install a RCXX image?

afaik you have to be rooted to install themes, an exception is when you are using a home replacement.
RC stands for Release Candidate and its just a version numbering thing i guess...
Hello again...
Yeah, I tried instead of just asking.
After a few more reading I realise I was making some confusion. I have a rooted phone so I just adb pull the files I needed to theme (framework-res, htclauncher, etc...) changed the drwable files and adb push them again
It's kinda of what a update.zip does but with more files. Nothing better that trying
Now I just don't know why some people ressign apk's, but I guess a little more reading will fix that too.
Thnaks for your help smurf.
Sorry for being a noob, i have the g1 dream sim free, it has 1.5 on it it has no market app. and when i hard reset it does not ask me to register but comes straight to home screen with clock
base - 62.41s.20.13u_2.22.16.17
kernel - 2.6.27.00205-gf2dabco [email protected] #15

how can i update this device please help.
I think if you know your kernel etc. you have root rights, am I right?
If yes, just flash the google apps. You find the link in the cyanogen 5.0.7 thread.
If not, I don´t know what you can do
not sure what right i have, m looking for the goole apps .. but is there a market app which can be installed, thanks for your reply by the way. though i was lost for a bit

I'm confused...so did you fix it?
gapps-ds-ERE36B-signed
search for that ^
nope have not fixed it yet. seems like its a original dev phone but it came boxed brand new. in the mean time, the data sync does not open
and
system update gives the error - com.setting error or something like that..
im looking into gapps-ds-ERE36B-signed.zip, thanks for all your help..
You can get Gapps from here:
http://kanged.net/mirror/download.ph...36B-signed.zip
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
However Gapps is not an .apk file. You need to flash Gapps with the help of a recovery ROM & for that you need to have Android SDK installed. If all this is latin and greek to you; you should visit here

I would also suggest you to go through ROM Bible sticky in this section.
Alternatively you can unzip gapps file and look for marketUpdater.apk in system>app folder and install it manually. I have not tried this method ever but you can give it a shot; it will not brick your phone.
Thanks for the answer guys, i think i have a dev phone had a look at the rom bible so i can root i . but i dont know what rc versoin the device is cos this does not exist in the build number as in post one. also can you recommend a stable rom update for a beginner.
at amitabhishek the first link you have posted does not work, also is there a way to root a dev phone, or is it already unlocked dont want to try a rom and brick the phone.

Hello,
Since my Galaxy S is coming very soon, I was wondering if anyone here has successfully added Hebrew/Arabic language so that we can see it in the browser and in SMS.
Any tutorial?
Thanks.
I did with Hebrew fonts and it is working fine. Delete the fonts under /system/fonts and copy the new fonts to that folder. I used root explorer to do this.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
For me
I rooted my SGS then copy tahoma.ttf from windows to /system/fonts/DroidSansFallback.ttf and it read arabic but reversed and it should also read Hebrew
So Hebrew is ok.. no problem.
For Arabic, I read somewhere that its reversed and they are not attached to each other (like space is between each character).. is it right?! Whats the solution to this?
Where can I download those fonts?
there is a full Arabic rom with the phone in UAE this is the proof but with out market we trying to dump that rom or wait until the rom uploaded to

you can dump /system folder that what we need by writing this to adb shell or terminal in your phone (your phone should be rooted and busybox installed)
su
tar -cvf /sdcard/dump.tar /system
you will find dump.tar in you scard (size ~268MB) and you can compress it and upload it to Rapidshare or mediafire or what ever you like
I will make it installable through update.zip or Odin3
Thank you

Mumtaz Hani, Great work man, I am downloading it right now !
Can I use JFF CSC file rather than the JG1 with your ROM ?
Hani, the link for downloading the ROM seems to have an Issue!
Indeed amazing work Hani,
I was wondering if you mind sharing the font files only, and if it will work if I install only them without the whole ROM since I already use another one. Will there be problems?
Thanks.
I have JG1 with JFF CSC, I'm going to try to install the update.zip only and see if it works !
I just went to that forum and noticed that there is someone that already asked the same question and Hani told him that he have to use Hex Editor or else it wont work.
Any one knows something about Hex editing that can make a mini guide on how to do it?
Thanks.
Hani amazing
It maybe a good idea to post this in english in xda...what do you think
I rooted my device and i pushed the market but unfortunatly i cant see protected apps anyone able to?

so you deleted the original DroidSansFallback.ttf, renamed the windows tahoma.ttf and copied it instead to /system/fonts/?

Hy guys. I'm trying to create a theme for my phone and wondered could anyone upload the nexus 1's stock unmodified framework-res.apk?
Thanks in advance.
Tryed allready the search button and google to no avail.
How about starting with the fact that there is no "stock", you need to define the OS version / build? Specifically, it was originally shipped with ERD79, upgraded to ERE27, then Froyo came and it was FRF91, and now it's 2.2.1, FRG83. What is "stock"?
When you answer that question, why don't you visit my signature, download ROM of your choice from there, and extract the framework-res.apk out of it? It might take less time than waiting for someone to do it, especially that most people that are capable of doing it and have their phone rooted, run custom ROMs...
Alternatively, you could just get it from your phone.....
adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk
Sent from my Nexus One

Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
First off thank you for answering. Second why all the "attack".
I'll refrase my question:
I would like, if I don't disturb you, an unmodified froyo stock version framework-res.apk.
Any version would do.
The reason that I don't extract mine is that I don't own a nexus 1. As visible in my signature I own a galaxy S. And yes mine is rooted also, and yes it's modified mutch like yours, and I would like to modifie it some more, hense the request for framework-res.apk.
I'm sorry to say that I'm not sure how to extract it from a rom that is not flashed in a phone.
Yes I'm a little newbie in some things but I came here to learn and to try things. I didn't ask either of you to build me a rom or make me anything, thats what I'm trying to do myself, and not bother anyone whit my wishes.
A bit off topic. Sorry for that. If you can't or won't upload thats fine to.
PS You don't have to be mean.
I've uploaded for you framework-res.apk from old Enomther's build, which is somewhat resembling stock. I really don't want to download 80MB of a stock ROM only to extract a file from there and put it here. And as I said, most people that are rooted and run stock ROMs aren't able to help you, having no idea what to do because they rooted the phone without any understanding, and those that are, mostly run custom ROMs and don't have stock ROM available. My current framework-res won't help you either, because it's modified.
Nexus ROM is a simple ZIP file, packed with exactly the same directories as the ROM, and all the files in them. In the /system/app, you find framework-res. Extracting the file from there is as simple as extracting the file from any ZIP archive.
This wasn't an attack, but an explanation and suggestion to do something yourself. Obviously it didn't work.

Thank you. And your wrong it did work. It made my keep reading and managed to extract from a stock rom I downloaded. So I have to thank you because you made me work harder and now I know how to extract files from an .img.
PS I still think you were talking a little bit like you are superior to others.
No offense of course that is just my opinion and it might be very wrong.
Again thank you for your help and I mean that sincerely.
Well, I was maybe a bit sarcastic, but I didn't mean to offend you at all. Sorry if it sounded harsh.
P.S. I completely forgot that stock ROM doesn't look like custom ROMs, and contains complete IMGs. There is an easy way to extract them - using unyaffs - but you already know it, since you did it. I'm really sorry for forgetting that part, if I'd remember that - I'd point you to the relevant guide to begin with. My bad.

What do all these region specific roms do? Is there any advantage or extra goodies having one rom over another?
Crazy, this is the one for my carrier. Although the phone is not yet released, I think it is coming in April. I have my upgrade coming up this summer sometime and will get this phone to replace my Nexus One if I can root and install a Vanilla gingerbread rom on it like CM. I'm not into sense at all. But if All else fails, I will still get the phone for an upgrade, unlock it, and sell it and continue to use my N1

Hi,
does anyone know if a non-european rom like that from canada should work on a european version of the IS?
Will european languages be missing when you install this or get you in trouble with specific radio settings?
I got a little bug and was looking for a new firmware (when you open the phone application, normally you get to see the latest calls on top of your contacts and you can quickly navigate through the list by T9 search. However the list is completely empty until I press a key and delete it again.. then the list is displayed and I can search through it)
Thank you!
It doesn't include any information about EU APN's and all this material.
The language is inside without any preset except english
