Hi !
1.How to set ringtone from my music? Don't see any prompts. I am using INFINITUM.
2.How to change language without going to settings each time like Input Method prompt in GB roms on long press.
3.Is there a possibility of better Camera and induction of FM Radio in future ?
4.Faster USB data transfer ?
5.Would ICS have it's own version of Face time later ?
So far, only these questions come to mind and would be obliged if someone can let me know.
thanks!

Just can answer question number 1. Make a folder on your sd named media. Now you put a folder in it called ringtones for ringtone and one for notifications for sms tone. Now you just got to copy the mp3 file in ringtones (notifications) folder and reboot. After that you can select your mp3 as ringtone in settings. Edit: folderpath you got to create (forgot one) sdcard/media/audio/ringtones (notifications)

Go to System Settings -> Language & input -> Android keyboard -> Input languages
Deselect the "Use system language"
Tick on the languages that you want to use in "ACTIVE INPUT METHODS".
Now, you should be able to change the language using the space bar on your keyboard while inputting the text.
Thanks a lot !

Hey guys, I'm currently running CM6 rom and I tried to install the HTC_IME MOD keyboard with no luck. I was actually able to install it but when I select it as the input method the keyboard never appears on the screen. Has anyone gotten this to work on their Aria successfully? I tried it on both CM6 and Attn1 liberated rom. I installed swype and that works fine, but I really would prefer the HTC keyboard.

Here's a link to the HTC_IME thread on the forums. I've tried the low and high res versions and neither worked. They install fine, I go into settings and enable, then choose it as the input method, no problem. But the keyboard never pops up.

no offense but we arent looking for a different language we are looking at the keyboard interface
i also suspect that this was designed for a different device, a higher resolution device and the low resolution versions dont support froyo

works great i dont seem to have the issue with a glitch on the speak now...but it does work great...also im running cm6 6.0.2 with dumfuq's oc kernel 825...wich is great btw
I got this to work...once. Not sure what I did right, but I'd like to do it again. I was running CM6.1 and tried it many times. I think the only time I got it to work may have been when I chose lo res. I shall reattempt after I resolve a few other issues. I will do my best to report back if there is success.
Use the Low Resolution. I used a PC for the download and extraction. All you need is the apk that comes from the extract. Send the apk to your phone using any means (e-mail, usb connect). Use a file explorer such as Astro to install the apk. After installing the apk, go to Menu>Settings>Language & keyboard and check next to HTC_IME. (Notice there is a settings link - quite good). Back out to the home screen and select an app that would need text input. Long press on the text field, then select Input method. Select HTC_IME mod.
If you use the gimpsta ( http://www.gimpsta.com/themerlo/) skinner, use the lowres. When you want to change skins, just do the same install you did earlier with one tricky exception. They are all labeled the same, no matter what you name each skin's apk. When you locate the new skin in your explorer and try to install the apk, it will not give you an install option, but an uninstall option. Go with the uninstall, then when you return to the file explorer, reattempt install. Follow through with the subsequent steps to activate the input method, just like your original install of this custom keyboard.
Hope this helps. I was almost obsessed with making this work, because I had seen it work once. Now we just wait for gimpsta to give us low res users more options like custom keys, symbols and spacebar inlays.
Yeah,
1. You have to enable it in the menu.
2. You do a long check on a type-box.
3. choose input method, and then you can use HTC_IME mod.
4.??
5. Profit!
I'm having trouble getting this to work. I tried both hi-res links and the 1.6 lo res. the hi-res had nothing show up when a keyboard was needed (the standard android keyboard disapeared and was not replaced). the lo-res force closed.
i wiped all data/caches before installing CM6.1
Does anybody know how to make HTC_IME to show the character "ñ" on the keyboard? Even though I only marked spanish as my language it just won't show. It should be next to the "L"
Try pressing and hold or slide up and should show it.

I did it! It was on the "keyboard language" section. It's weird that I didn't notice that before. I was choosing my language on the "Language Selection" area. Thank you for for you answer
Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone could explain to this noob (me) how to mod the dockbar layout of stock twlauncher? Currently running UCKK4 (KK2 kernel by corn)....? I've tried using tw4, which is very cool, but found its stability to be inconsistent on my cappy. Mainly i would like to 1 or 2 small details re: the stock dockbar... 1. Replace "email" button with "gmail" 2. Add "messaging" icon to dockbar (having 5 icons instead of 4, and actually like the look of app drawer icon on right side)
Also, was wondering if anyone has working mods for KK4 extended power menu & modded batt icon with 9 toggle? Tried flashing ones i had but wound up having to reflash stock.
Any help, pointers, tips, etc are greatly appreciated. Also, my apologies if I've posted this is the incorrect area.
Thx, tjp419

You can find some TWLauncher mods here. You ll have to port it. The source is available there. I suppose someone might have already ported theme to the Captivate.
thanks for the that link! ok, so have to ask, can you explain what it means to "port"? still a noob, lol, sorry
yahh, don't start with ports, being a noob, start with small easy stuff.

Hmm porting means editing the APK so as to make t work on a particular device. You need to know some Java, smali/baksmali for it. You need to decompile the APK, using a utility lke APKTool/APKManager and make edits to the touchwiz code to make those mods for the captivate.
For the request #1, you don't need mod.
Simply do the following
1. on the app drawer (hit applications)
2. hit menu -> choose "view type" -> select "Customizable grid"
3. hit menu -> choose "edit", then you can drag and move around icons.

The easiest way to get that would be to flash a KK4-based ROM with that already baked in. Illuminance comes to mind because it's one that I used most recently that had it, but I know there are other ROMs that fit the bill as well. Just do your homework first so you don't end up in an unhappy place

OMG, you are my hero! This is exactly what I've been trying to figure out... figures it would it would be an easy fix and right under my nose... though, i would still like to learn how to mod & theme apps in general, not just touchwiz, think it would be fun...
On a different note, have a new question/issue... my contacts keep reverting back even after i edit them (add #, or email, or address, etc); randomly, some contactf will go completely missing; also, in the notification bar, i get a message that says "sync error, too many deletes." In settings, under accounts & sync, i have it marked to sync google & facebook contacts. And lastly, curious if anyone else has had these same issues..?. If so, hpe do i fix this?
Again, any help is appreciated.
Thx, tjp

Try to download app from the market.. many apps there could give you the freedom of set as a ring tone or notification tone .. But I don't know how to create it as a build in the ROM it self

Hey
You can take ringtones from other roms and add it to the ics or jb roms...
1.select the ringtones of the rom you what to copy
Goto the downloaded rom,double click it,open system then goto media and copy the audio folder(or the tones you what)
2.select the rom you what them in
Goto the rom you what them in and paste the set or files in appropriate locations
After that flash the rom again...doing the wipes...
That's one method..the other is u copy the files to internal memory card
In the internal memory card there'll be a folder named "media"
Open it and create a folder as "Ringtones" and paste the tones there...
I haven't tried the second method but the first one works for sure...i have done that one..
Hopes this sorts your problem
Cheers

It also may depend on what build you're using. I had troubles losing my custom tones -- in one instance, an incoming call started flashing onscreen but it was silent. And i know a custom tone was set minutes before. But after the call, sound settings tones flipped to unknown, sdcard tones weren't in the pulldown menu, and Gallery was empty of pics. Right now, they seem to stick with pawitp's 0723 build, but are just a tad slow to show after a reboot.

How to modify the DPI on the LG Optimus L5
If you find, just like me that the default DPI on an LG L5 is a little large (for example the huge notification bar at the top of the screen), then this might help you get a better experience.
Requirements
Rooted device
File manager that allows you to remount a filesystem
Things to know before you start
If you decrease the DPI on your device, everything on the screen will get smaller. Since that is what we want it shouldn't be a problem, were it not that LG has fixed the size of a number of items, most noticeably:
The lock screen
The stock keyboard
If you are currently running a custom rom with a non-LG lockscreen and keyboard, you don't need to install anything. If you are on a rooted stock rom, I advise you to install a different lock screen and keyboard before you start.
OK, you're still reading so you are probably ready to start. This is how to do it:
Open your favourite file manager and re-mount the /system filesystem rw
Use your favourite file editor to edit /system/build.prop
Lookup the line containing lcd_density=160 and change the value to 140 (or if you have really good eyes, you might go as low as 120).
Save the file
Reboot
Since the resolution of the L5's screen is not so high, a DPI of lower than 120 will probably make text unreadable.
You can also install 'pimp my rom' from google play and then 'change density'.

Actually, using Pimp my Rom is better, since it doesn't require direct file editing! Good one!

Even Rom Toolbox should do it ... Does anyone know how to do it?
thank u :victory:
i have a few questions which after a lot of browsing also i cannot understand..
1) you know, all that stuff like v6 supercharger adrenaline,activo speeder and so on, what is the difference b/w all of these? which ones should i flash? and suppose it is already there in my rom how do i know about it? many people give different answers but im using blackdroid rom so along with that if anyone knows anything?
2) I recently found a rom whose font i really liked. if i wish to add that font in my current rom how do i do that? please keep it simple because i couldnt understand anything in other threads.
(PS to use font changer root do i need to extract the font from the rom?if so how?)
THANKS!!
v6 is available for just a few ROMs and setting it up isn't easy for novice users. If you have adrenaline engine, you can't flash anything else, because it gives bootloop. Activo is friendly to other scripts, so it's a choice for anybody who has no idea what should give bootloop.
For the font: wait for someone else, because I never change fonts
to change fonts all I do is use root explorer then goto system/fonts then replace DroidSans.ttf (this is the main font used by android) with the font you want to use and make sure you rename it to DroidSans.ttf and set permissions. you can also change all the fonts this way but just make sure you rename them and set permissions.. . do a nandroid backup just incase then reboot.

If you want to know if there are scripts in Rom write to developer
In v1 of BL Rom I didn't add any scripts like this, but in v2 (you can find changelog on my thread) I added some useful

You can also check it by looking in to system > etc > init.d folder
