S-Voice on IncS ?

Got S-Voice to work on our phones.
check post below ;D

got it to work see attached photos

HOW DO YOU INSTALL?
1. Download files on link below(Extract on your desktop). If you download to phone directly, you still need to extract to a normal folder.
2. Contained within is 2 files.(voicetalk.apk & libsvoxtts.so)
3. Place voicetalk.apk in system/app with "Root Explorer" or like(Use Mount R/W and set permissions by holding voicetalk.apk to see sub-menu). Make sure to make permissions as "rw-r--r--".
4. Now place libsvoxtts.so on /system/lib.
5. Reboot IT WILL INSTALL ON REBOOT. NO NEED TO CHANGE build.prop such as with others.
6. ENJOY, then ask funny questions to it.

I was on es as well but after you get root we should really use root explorer. It's way better and you can set permissions etc.

I do have root and i also know how to chnage permissions. I was having a stupid moment as the gf is asking me ridiculous questions about her new phone, .....she wont let me go near it for if i root it LOL
Why do we have to chnage it to RW-R-R, as opposed to the automatic RW-RW-RW
------------------------
I tell it to set an alarm for 5.30am, it says here is your alarm..............But it doesnt actually set an alarm? If i go into the clock app theres no alarm set?

Can't change user permissions in the apk as it's a system file. Now what?

If you are using ES file explorer, you need to go
Menu --> settings and enable root
If you have already done that, then..I don't know

When it fails, a popup window appears and tell me 'some system files don't allow changing of permissions (e.g. sd card). So I thought it was my sdcards problem. So I'm going to try adb

Didn't work also. ES File Explorer, Root Explorer, FX and ADB didn't work. So I guess my sdcard is the problem.
It is a goldcard anyways.

Network Location for CM10/AOKP JB

I opened this new thread for people who have problems with network location provider on CM10/AOKP JB(tested on latest CM10 and AOKP JB and deepsleep ok,i dont know if it will work on CM9.1 too)
So,
-First you need this NetworkLocation.apk and put it on /system/app/here and set permission to rw-r-r
-Second you must ad the right database on /sdcard/nogapps/here
NetworkLocation Database (copy to /sdcard/.nogapps/cells.db):
-Based on dumps of opencellid-project - all credits to those guys there!
-World
-Africa
-Asia
-Australia
-Europe
-North-America
South-America
That is,have fun...

Thanks, this is very useful

Agree! Works perfectly on the latest CM10.

Does ".nogapps/cells.db" needs to be created on sdcard?

i have downloaded the networklocation.apk and the cell-asia.db.. then i copy the apk and replace networklocation.apk in system/app and change permission to rw-r--r--. then i create .nogapps folder in sdcard, copy the cell-asia.db to it and rename it to cell.db, the permission is ---rwxr-x. is this correct step..?

thanks i will try it :good:

Which cm10 are you using? 10/10 by thewhisp?? I'm on 07/09 and I can't get it to work...should I update ROM or has it worked for anyone?

No need to change permission when the directory is SD card

Delete post please

Some people said that using this solution might be a break to copyright law against Apple, because this solution uses data from Apple to get network location when using WiFi.
What do you think ? Might be a problem ?

i'm really thanksfull for this. It works perfectly, also deepsleep. The only bug i found it's the direction : 45° of my real direction. But I've not test on the road again. Thanks.

I don't think apple is looking for this thread and i think he will look if someone say to him

Look in Settings -> Display Settings. There's a toggle for displaying hidden files. It probably handles folder, too. I can see hidden folders on my Nexus 4. The One is out of the house at the moment, so I can't look at it. If you haven't seen them, settings are accessible by tapping the globe/mobile device icon to the left of the breadcrumbs that show the current directory location.

HTC File Manager
I'm currently building a file manager based on the native "Filepicker.apk" which is hidden by default. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

One does not simply download it, it is found system/priv-app/SemcCameraUI.apk, you might need to find a copy of this file from a ROM or something.

Thanks! Found it.
However it is not installing it. After running the apk It says application not installed.
Any ideas how to get around this and install it ?

You can't install these system apks.
Move apk to system/priv-app and set the permissions to rw-r-r or 0644, should be an option in your file manager.
Unless you're saying that the apk is already there and only the icon has disappeared

Well the app was there but after i installed greenify, i tried to open the camera and when clicking the icon it said "app not installed".
No idea if the camera is installed but not opening or it genuinely uninstalled on its own.

Please find the below attachment
Delete baidu folder if exists
Install APK normally reboot to verify
Tested on XPeria ZL 283 Stock

Maybe dumb question, but why we need to delete this folder? It's not making phone work any worse or better!?!?
