Multi-Touch Keyboard

This is the DX keyboard and has been successfully put onto the fascinate, credit goes to adrynalyne for putting this together. This version should not give you FC errors when you reboot the phone
Needs to be flashed with clockwork!

I'm sorry how do you install this?
Edit: found out how.

cool thanks.. i was looking for this!

take a non-multi-touch keyboard and press one key then try to press another key. It will only pick up on the first key that you press.
You can type with 2 fingers but it's like you have to use one finger at a time fairly slow.

I originally installed the .apk of this keyboard and got FC's. I cleared the entire devlik cache and installed this .zip via clockwork and I'm still getting FC's. Any ideas?

Alright I figured it out. FOR THOSE OF YOU HAVING A FORCE CLOSE WITH "LATIN" IN THE NAME, these are the steps that I took (if you've already flashed via clockwork):
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE DONE TO YOUR PHONE, this is just how I fixed this issue.
1.) Go into system/app and DELETE your DXkeyboard.apk
2.) Go into data/devlik cache and delete the line that has "DX.." in the name (i forgot what its called)
the above two steps thus far are what I DID, they may not be necessary.
3.) unzip the dxkbd file that was in the OP on your desktop
4.) go into "system" and you'll see "app" and "library"
5.) copy the .apk file and .so file from "app" and "library" respectively and put them on your sdcard
6.) using root explorer, move the .so file to system / lib
7.) using root explorer, move the .apk file to system / app
8.) DELETE "latinIME" apk and odex
9.) DELETE latintutorial (or something like that, its right under latinIME odex i believe)
10.) reboot

With the exception of deleting things, thats precisely what the package in the op does.

[Q] old stock android keyboard in 2.3.x

Ok, I have searched high and low, and found nothing, I want my good old android stock keyboard in gingerbread. I have found a hundred ways of putting the gb one on everything, even a psp, but not the other way around. Can someone build an apk, or a zip to do this? I am having such trouble getting use to the gb keyboard.
So, im asking for the old default androind keyboard in the new 2.3.X
Thank you

I'm not understanding. Stock is there for me. Imputed method>gingerbread. Keyboard=stock

I think he means the keyboard that was in 2.1 (or 2.2).
Correct me if I'm wrong OP.

Yes, the one on 2.1 and 2.2. I hate this gb one, space bar is so small!

I'm thinking you could always pull it out of the 2.2 Froyo ROM zip that is around here.
Should be in system/app (I think).
You can use 7zip to pull it directly as a zip instead of unzziping, getting it and rezipping.
Once you got it, just put it on your sd card and install.
I can't promise it will work cause the framework is different on GB ROMs but it's worth a try. The worse you'll get is a "Can't install error".

Oh, I got it. And it even installs. But I don't know where it goes, Or where supposed to go in gb. Cause it didn't show up in the settings section.

It should install in system/app
I believe you should be able to change it under settings -> local and text.

It's trying to put files in /meta-inf, system/app and system/ lib. it says its installing, but i show no evidence of it.

Que?
what is trying to put files where?
meta-inf is in cwm zip files, it's the flashing instructions for cwm? There is no folder on the phone called that.
I'm confused
Lets start over shall we,
What you have to do is open the zip, either unzip with native windows tools or just open the archive in 7zip. Take out the keyboard apk you want out of /system/app and the corresponding lib file in /system/lib. Put those in the same folders on the phone, either push them with adb or drop them in with root explorer, and reboot.
Still no guarantee it'll quirk on gingerbread though...

The above mentioned directory is the folders in the zip file that when opened it will write to on extraction. On earlier roms, 2.2.x, i flashed it via cw as an update.zip. Apparently this doesn't work with 2.3.x. Do i have a file that is really old?

Try adding the libaudio.so to your ROM.zip (with 7-zip or WinRAR) at the right directory and flash the ROM.zip again. That's what I am doing everytime I change something

Unzip the cwm with the fix and navigate to "system/lib" and copy the "libaudio.so".
then open the rom zip navigate to "system/lib" and paste the "libaudio.so" there.
Didn't understand your previous post..did you make a backup or not?
If not...just flash your current rom again, you won't lose your data if you do this.
Only the files that you edited in /system like gps.conf or other tweaks you have to edit again.

Tried on UD3.3.0 wont boot... :s

People dont understand that this work the best on CM7 nexus roms.
That by installing this fix on CM7 or AOSP you will probaly lose the robo and high volume on first call fix. That most roms have custom libs including this lib. Minimum requirements I would say CM7 2.34 and AOSP 2.34 since cm7 and AOSP are the most equal roms to each other.
To say it simple you cant just simply flash this on every rom also make sure your permission is right.

Is this fix able to work on an HTC Desire running 2.3.4 Oxygen ROM?

If you have a nandroid backup, you should be on the safe side!
Try to wipe cache partition first, then the dalvik cache and then flash the zip-file.
All of these actions take place in the CWM.
Hope it works!

The libaudio.so fix was submitted to gerrit (Change I24a4a11b: Fix for a1026 suspend)by Jordon aka Jyxent. It was mergered with the latest nightlies, and should be merged with CM 7.0.4

Yes, that fix works fine. I'm not sure it fixes the few seconds delay that affects all Gingerbread phones though but there was another potential workaround submitted for that too.
http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,5420
I have yet to include it in my build and try it though.

The story on the front page links to the wrong fix. The libaudio fix was for the wonk on the Nexus One. The libaudio library is hardware specific and may cause issues on other devices that don't share the same processor.
I've submitted a patch to gerrit that helps with the call delay here:
http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,5420

Thank you for clearing that up jyxent. To go into a bit more detail...
The fix that was posted, as jyxent mentioned, is for the Nexus One. That is for the infamous "wonk" that has been plaguing N1 users since the Gingerbread nightlies started (who woulda thunk it was just a single line that needed to be added).
The 2-3 second delay is something that affects most (if not all) Gingerbread installs. Currently there isn't a simple "fix" for this. It requires recompiling portions of Gingerbread. jyxent's fix is submitted to CM, but I don't see any reason why this can't be applied to AOSP as well. It has yet to be reviewed by the CM dev team (at least it doesn't have any comments on it yet). It might be something that can be made into some device-independent flashable zip, but it has yet to be created.

Can this be done manually with root explorer, by copying the libaudio.so to/system/lib and a reboot?

[SOLVED] GPS problems after GB update

Got GPS problem after the update with my LG o2x.
It cant seem to find any sats. Done everything thats been said on other threads nothing helps.
Any one with the same problem ?

Me 2. I get fix for about 2 sec. Then its stuck afterwards.

I don't even get a lock

Try clearing AGPS data with GPS Status

doesn't help. Can people please post their settings in hidden menu. All of them please

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19002334&postcount=41
some people said it work some said not work so try as your choice.

do you disable gps if you don't use it?
in official froyo and officeal gingerbread (v20l)
gps need to be enable on boot if you want good signal , otherwise you will always lose it
so try this
enable gps
reboot phone
turn on mobile data ( no wifi !)
open your gps app
I got my first fix in about 30 secs (cold start)
second on in 5 sec

Same problem as some of us had with previous leaked GB roms. Topogigi fixed the problem by tweaking service.jar file, that's the only thing I know. He talked about way of calling hardware that was wrong and explained that after a lock the GPS vanished..
You should search in Topogigi thread, there is a workaround in the beginning pages that could work (setting a new server in hidden menu).
That's why I'll stay with my ROM for now... It is perfectly working.

This worked for me!, however the srs level for each sat is not greater then 40 for some reason :S

I'm also experiencing this: as soon as the GPS gets a fix, the gps device itself seams to disappear. The Nav-app does get a valid location for one second and then the gps icon disappears.
This problem was not present in 10D and it does seem to happen when I activate the GPS later. If I boot with GPS enabled, the problem doesn't seem to occur.
Can this be fixed with the custom Jar file from Topogigi? Or is that for a different problem (no fix at all or something else - I do get a fix quickly but the GPS device seems to disappear then).
If so, how can I install it on my stock 20L? Some post talks about mounting a folder. How can I do that? I guess I need to root first and then use some kind of program on my pc or....?
I'm sorry if this has been covered before but I'm new to all this and there is so much information and a lot is hard to understand if you're new to this.

Just simplify set /system/framework folder into RW mode then delete the old one and then copy the file that extract from zip file into /system/framework then change file permission to 644 (rw-r--r--) --> reboot OR
Here the method from origin
1- Just mount your "/system/framework" folder writeable.
2- Then overwrite the existing "services.jar" with the attached one.
3- Reboot your phone and your gps will get its fix in only some seconds.

[SPH-L720] [NG2] Original TouchWiz NG2 Bloat

If you accidentally deleted an application that you wanted later or just simply desire the files for development of custom TouchWiz based roms (or any other reason) and don't want to fish for them on a stock device, then here they are
These files are from the unmodified but rooted NG2 software. The only modification was that the device was rooted, so obviously @Chainfire's supersu is not part of the original files.

**EDIT **
Note these are NOT flashable ZIPs. These are archives of each directory for cherry-picking the bloat apps.
**EDIT 2014 OCT 25TH***
Will not be making flashable ZIPS. If you so desire to do so, go for it. I now have the S5 and no free time as it is.

Yes I did. I simply took them from a stock rom. Which I'm sure anyone could do - just I know I never thought to until i'm at a point where I have no choice but to flash back to stock. So now everyone has them handy.
They are simple file copies. It's not a flashable zip. Extract and use adb to push or simply copy to your device. Again these are mainly for those who are building custom TouchWiz based roms and want to include some of the bloat - but can be used by those who need some of the applications for whatever reason. But they aren't flashable and some probably will have to be replaced using adb push.
I will try to work on a flashable zip but that will take me some time. Also a flashable zip file doesn't help those whom say only want Sprint's Zone app for example but don't need the rest of the bloat. Just saying. But will post when I have made flashable zips for all-in-one bloat.

Someone else chime in here if this is wrong:
but... some of the touchwiz apps will refuse to work thru a simple file copy from within the device. If that happens, some of it - keyword "some" will be fixed by using a custom recovery like philz-touch or CWM or TWRP and clearing both cache and dalvik-cache after doing the file copy - at least that worked on 4.3 and 4.2.2. But KitKat has changed some things so I'm not sure.
If anyone else has dealt with this, please do comment....

When pushing .apks with ES or Root Explorer (my personal favorite) you do need root and need to place in the correct folder (system/app, system/priv_app, or system/lib if it's a lib file) and be able to change permissions - usually to rw, r, r.
... So definitely pay attention where you copy the files from and where ya put 'em.
If not done, they will not work.
Hope this helps someone!

Just wanted to let those of you whom are watching this thread know that due to personal stuff I have no time to make flashable ZIPs anytime soon but if anyone wants to take a stab at it before I get to it then be my guest

Make sure you copy it to /system/priv-app folder, and set permissions to rw-r--r-- (644) NOT rwxrwxrwx, otherwise it will not work.
