[Q] Ultibread! V1.4 freeze and several problem (but love it) - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hello,
I install ROM Ultibread! V1.4 and basically very love it (Performance is great!!!).
I have several issues:
1. It freeze~2-4 times a day, just freeze and need to shutdown or take out the battery
2. The new Android 2.3 multi language keyboard not saving the setting after reboot.
I added Hebrew plugin and select as additional language and it work but after reboot the hebrew is not selected is input and need to reselect it.
3. Hebrew is RTL language, when I type it look OK but when I type also numbers the number is in wrong order.
e.g I want to type 40 but it type 04

As you know that rom is based on the beta leak of Gingerbread for i9000, since is a beta there may be bugs, some of those problems have been reported in other roms based on the same leak, I would wait for an stable release if you want it to be your every day rom.
Best Regards,

good advice thx. can't afford the risk

Yes I know but since 2.2. is so slow,
I sync with my Exchange 2003 server and when it sync I can't open any email.
After it sync and I open email take some time 15 second to show the email.
So it's not a machine I can work with email account.
I prefer to use this new ROM and reboot every time it freeze

WaveSecure not registering in Cyanogen Mod 4.0.4

Hi!
I recently rooted my G1 and installed cyanogen mod 4.0.4.
Then I reinstalled WaveSecure and tried to register my phone (the first step).
I send and receive the sms for doing the registration. The SMS is then removed from my inbox (i suppose wavesecure is removing it). But Wavesecure doesnt recognize the sms. Wavesecure keeps waiting for the SMS to arrive then timeout and asks to try again.
I could complete the registration before with the android 1.5 so I think cyanogen mod is causing the error (maybe inserting some headers or wraping lines in SMS?)
What I need is: This happens only to me? I want some users of cyanogen mod and wavesecure to tell me if everything is fine or if the error is for everyone.
Thanks in advance.
Greetings from Brazil.
One complicated way of getting around this problem is:
1. Install cupcake (Android 1.5) again
2. Install and activate WaveSecure
3. Shell into the phone and copy the config files of WaveSecure (from /data/data/com.wsandroid/) out
- xml files
- database files (.db)
4. Install his custom OS
5. Install WaveSecure
6. Copy those config files back in overwriting the current files
But, since there seems to be some problem with the SMS interception on this custom build there is a high chance that other things related to server / client communication wont work.
Alternatively, if you are willing to try out some test builds then we can get a better idea of what is happening for you on Cyanogen Mod 4.0.4.

Hi!
Thanks for your reply.
I will try to follow these steps:
1) Full nandroid backup
2) Install cupcake
3) Install wavesecure and configure it
4) Copy configuration files above
5) Install Cyanogen Mod (maybe I can skip this as the next could do it already, need to investigate)
6) Restore nandroid backup
7) Overwrite configuration files
This way I will try not to loose my files and settings. But I will need to do it only when I have some free time, that way I can't tell the results very soon. Maybe only next Monday.
Again, thanks for the support and congratulations for the very nice app. Its very useful to me.
Greetings from Brazil.
Hi,
Its great to know that you find WaveSecure useful!
Before you try doing this though - make sure you tried the number verification step by entering your international number with a + country code.

Working again
Upgraded to latest cyanogen mod and latest wave secure and they are working again!!
Thanks!! I'll make the backup for security anyway!!

CM 4.2.1 / CM4.1.99x Exception with contact group

Some poeple are the meaning, that the place for this thread will be better here: OK, lets following this issue here. Here is a copy from the previews one:
CM 4.2.1 / CM4.1.99x Exception with contact group
Exception with Contacts - so like as in 4.1.99x
I have the same problem as in 4.1.99x, that I can not add a contact in my group (there is still ony one, which was working after some crashes in 4.1.999) without a crashed application
If I look into the exception Monitor, I can found a lot of:
Quote:
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Failed to find the My Contacts group"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
What can I do or must do ?
History: I have had the G1 not so long time, but modif. it via WIPE to the 4.0.x ( stable )
After this (2 days later I upgrade to 4.1.111)
from this status I was following the description with the 2 Step to 4.1.999, where I have see the error the first time. With 4.0.x / 4.1.111 I haven't recognize this problem, because I have add some friend in my contact-list. For my meaning, this one was coming in, during upgrade in the 3 steps: WIPE, Google-Recovery, CM-Update 4.1.999.
Hint: If I update the phone, I start the phone WITHOUT a Mobile-Card: because I have had one time a bill over 200€ for data connection, and nobody knows why. So I boot the phone after update without card, check APNdroid, if 3G etc. disabed, shut down the phone, insert the casrd and boot again.
Maybe this handling calls the error ?
......
......
YES, I have use the search function and didn't found any usefull infos.
>>> ( how does I love this answer! If you found time to write this one, than I think, you know the answer - pls give me this one )
YES. I have reflashed the 4.2.1 with the card inside the phone: No change
Btw.: I was falling also in the error with the ext2 and ext3, so I change this one on the PC via tune2fs. But normaly every program, which need a DB and did not found it, create one. Or isn't it ?
Push > because its still avail and a Java exception is not a handling error
Just to bump this a bit and to pretend like it is actually useful to post in this forum...
Have you tried backing up your contacts via the browser, deleting them, sync the phone and then restoring?

No I haven't, because I have not so much contacts... So I was starting with a brand-new phone, "root" them, wipe them and change to CM4.0.x (Stable), jump to CM 4.1.11 and after a few days following the instruction to move to 4.1.999 with WIPE, 1st paket and the CM-paket.
Here I see the problem and also in 4.2.1.
About a missing Backup, I try only to create a contact manual on the phone.
THe first time, if I want to add the contact, the phone ask me to syncronise - but I was offline at all. So I reject this message ( there are also no datas to sync online )

[Q] Characters display component in android

What android component is responsible for displaying characters on the phone?
In case my question is not clear, please read on the following details:
I'm new to rom cooking and android development. I have a rooted HTC Legend with su access based on Eclair 2.1. I mostly communicate in english, but since I'm an arabic native speaker, I need to read emails, sms, and docs that I recieve in arabic on my phone.
After many trial and error attempts, I combined the core rom from the official arabic rom for legend (has no market or super user), added the market + su + rom manager + other stuff from different roms, signed it and installed the resulting rom on my phone and it works just fine.
Now with the release of froyo for the legend, I was thinking about using any rooted WWE rom and adding arabic to it (which I couldn't achieve on 2.1). It doesn't involve the installed fonts only, but there's something else responsible for displaying characters in android, the displayed arabic characters should be connected to be easily readable, and if I changed the fonts only, the characters will be displayed separated and backwards (Arabic is a RTL language).
A small program is available in the market and requires no su access to work, it can display connected arabic characters on any rom of any android version but only for sms messages. I think it's possible to do it system wide, but I need to know what android component responsible for displaying characters on the phone?
Your input are much appreciated. Thanks

[XT907 Rom][Mod][UnLocked boot] Telstra JB 4.1.2-9.8.2Q-SD Swap, Xposed...

Update Why are people using v0 & not v3? V3 has less issues & both have the "no visable dialer issue" for those using stock data. The dialer is fuctional but you have no access without a play dialer app. Now is the time to try out those ones with many features above stock, not really a problem. Stock cannot sort out non phone number contacts- just one limitation of the invisible dialer.
I really like this app! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=imoblife.startupmanager.full
Even the free version works well. Some apps show as user when they are not. I have it set to boot so that only 12 apps are running yet when I call for one of the "disabled" apps it works.
Use cwmr only.
Still no Dialer for those coming from stock ...79 or ...94.
Get this! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=intelgeen.rocketdial.pro
It has Many features. The bad review on the info page is a BAD REVIEW!
I am back on this as I still find it superior to even 98.30.1 for many things but Bluetooth in particular- connectivity & audio volume.
I found a path for all unlocked Vzw stock'ers, on 98.18.78 (same as 9.8.1Q-78) OR 98.18.94, to upgrade to a newer kernel and have a built in SD swap.
The first rom you flash is just a simple work around for Vzw users.
A facilitator that alters something in a way that Telstra needs to boot with your data partition.
Don't want to stay on this rom. Restore your former system & boot of any of the previous ones & keep your current data! That is right do not wipe data coming or going!
Those on Mhous33's DST or Deodexed roms may not need the Moparman371's facilitator flash. Testing.... Deodexed & DST works on their own!
Dialer & contacts show in launcher.:good::good::good:
Steps needed to install:
DO NOT WIPE ANY DATA!
Start on the newest ...94 OTA or Factory (or the one before ...78) [...66 alpha tester you are]
Start with your activated & rooted (vzw) stock (unlocked bootloader only)
Make sure you have booted up & done google login & used the stock messaging.
Go CWMR (6.0.1.3 or greater, TWRP will not install the attached rom). (see goodies for flashables)
Backup!
Mount system (& keep data- do not wipe anything)
Flash (install) http://d-h.st/2iE {Mhous33 rom users may skip}
Reboot system.
ReRoot on boot is ok but not needed.
Be sure stock messaging works.
Go cwmr
Wipe Cache & Dalvik
Flash/install the the attached rom.
Reboot. Answer NO at the disable recovery flash until xposed (or is it philz?) is set up & the nag is gone!
Update su binary.
Launch Xposed Installer.
Go Framework>Install/Update>reboot.
Ditto>Modules>Check the ones you want, there should be 4.
Reboot.
Enjoy.
Notes on this Rom:
Most important) DO NOT try to activate this system with Google login as you would a normal Rom.
It must be activated via your currently activated data partition.
Vzw users: You will never be able to do a privacy > factory data reset OR a recovery data wipe on this rom. Doing so & then rebooting will bork your radio partition & result is 3g only, but this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2391641
is the fix if you do.
Rarely): The Xperia launcher will need to be restarted when you see no home shortcuts visible right after a boot up. : Go app drawer> 3dots> launcher settings > swipe, move right to end > restart launcher.
I have found there were some apps causing this.
1) Use the Razr data widget at your own risk when on vzw it can break the radio.
2) Telstra base from ZaYAC-ua http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2246081
3) Updated with: ...94
a) SM_BP_101032.021.32.80P baseband. I did this BB change recently & I am now noticing that ...78p BB is better WiFi connector, SO v3 has this BB now. flash this from recovery to get the Rabbit's original BB back: http://205.196.123.79/enfc9t0cjpog/06j4ygdmdhxlm22/xt907-98.18.78p-radio.zip
b) contacts.apk
4) BusyBox 1.21.1 Stephen (Stericson)
5) Xposed Framework http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574401
Something in the framework/modules does away with the nagging "disable recovery flash" yet install-recovery.sh is let to do it's init.d duties.

It is there just no direct access. Touchpal contacts is best I found & free. There are many, dialer one is great but costs.

Cool thanks for help...
Yea confirm that touch pal works fine, i found an apk online...everything else seems to be mostly working, including bluetooth which is great! subjectively it also seems to be getting better reception too, but its hard to say for sure.
Only problem i can see is that my sdcard and internal storage are swapped around...this is on the phone and also in windows. Not sure if i need to fix this or not...i cant get appextractor to run it cant find the sdcard.

Why are you running appex...? I doubt it works on xt907.
The swap is the point & works great. If want internal sd to hog internal memory just delete the the file 11extsd2internal from init.d. reboot.
Read the sd swap link in the op.
Ah ok i gettit now...i really like this rom, specially the cool swype with arrows keyboard.
Was trying to use appex to get old contacts n sms data etc...but i guess its waste of time trying to make it work?
Also can't get terminal emulator to work. I moved it to user and then upgraded to later version but it stops working whenever i try use it. tried moving it back to system but same prob.
Feel like this rom will either upgrade me from n00b or break my phone...or maybe even break me

Been using touchpal for couple of weeks now it works fine for dialling etc. but i can't figure out how to load previous contacts. I tried using appex to restore contacts from previous backup. it says its working but i don't find any contacts in touchpal after reboot. I have also got all my contacts as vcf files on my sdcard but can't find a way to import them. Also in my text message app when i receive a text and try to save the number it says it can't find the app to save the contact with. After much messing around with permissions etc i finally made touchpal save a contact if i type it in. Also touchpal doesn't seem to be creating any call logs so i can't find any of the previous numbers i dialled. It's all a bit frustrating really.
So i am thinking there must be some way to tell the phone that the contacts app is not the default one it is now touchpal, and perhaps then this will allow me to access android contacts and then import the vcf files? I suspect this is something to do with permissions and/ or android wanting to find a different app to manage contacts. I have been googling a bit but can't find anything useful about how android contacts work and how i can make this all work without having the native contacts app.

No, a) i don't know how to do that and b) i don't have any google stuff set up - i am trying to use the phone without using google's (skynet) services.
I remember importing vcf contacts before using the stock contacts app so i guess what i am really asking is if i can make touchpal do that...and it would be great if i could save numbers from text messages... many thanks as always
Can i upgrade from the original telstra to the v3 version here? And can it be done without losing apps/ messages/ data etc?
Thanks as always...

[Q] Is it possible to change Settings trough a skript?

Hello there and thanks for stopping by my thread
As you can see i want to know if Android has some skript-language (like batch on windows and shellskript on linux) so that i can change settings for various Apps.
The Reason why i ask for such a possibility is that i hate it to reconfigure the stock-e-mail app and add my Mail Accounts everytime when i flash a new Version of the Sony Rom (so far im willing to skip .157 and wait for Android 5 just because i hate it).
inb4 Titanium Backup: it doesn't work. Since i've come from my HTC Hero via the Galaxy Note to the Z1 i couldn't restore my Email Accounts with Titanium Backup (Exchange, POP3 and IMAP - i've tested various Accounts).
inb4 other Mail app: the Stock apps works wonderfull enough
inb4 other Backup App: sorry, no
And this brings back to my question if there is such a way? Talking about the way i would use it like this:
1. Flash new Rom/Update
1.1 (Install app which makes it possible to use skripts)
2. Let the Skript run which resides on the sd-card
3. Have a clean configured smartphone everytime you flash it without old garbage from old Backups
i also think the possibilities of having skripts on android would create new ways of serving Roms - so maybe this would be something which you rom-devs would also like to have?
So hopefully this isn't too much to ask and maybe someone with developing knowledge can provide a solution for this - if so i would gladly be your beta-tester!
Regards
Seelbreaker
