[Q] MIUI Change Contact Birthday Format - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'd really rather post this question directly to the developer, but apparently I'm not allowed to post in dev forums yet, so....
Is it possible to change the format of a contact's birthday?
Right now it's displaying as: 1984-06-09 (British, I'm guessing?)
I'd like it to show in the American standard: 6-9-1984
Is this possible?
I'm using TripNRaver's Froyo MIUI 1.6.3 rom with the custom kernel.

Hi
Try :
Go to settings/system/date and time
There you can change the time format.

[Q] Android keyboard problems

Hi everybody,
I got my new LGOO. I am not new to Android, I was using a phone with 2.1 before and I want the same keyboard than before.
* Dictionary
When I active the Android Keyboard there is no prediction which word I want to write, only the ones from my contacts.
I found a tool in the market (User Dictionary Manager (UDM) 3.1) but this only adds words to the user dictionay and doesn't make differences between languages. I want to use english and german from time to time so I need it both seperated. It seems like the phone doesnt have the languages files out of the box. Is it somehow possible to copy and paste it to the system? (I have root access)
* Correction
Also it doesn't correct my errors of typing. This worked under 2.1 and I can't find an option to activate it.
Thanks

Someone has solved installing the gingerbread keyboard.
I solved installing Swype keyboard.
any luck with this?
this happens only with stock roms. i tried the Android keyboard on custom roms and it was perfect.

anyway, I'm really glad that the "gingerbread keyboard" app works and replaces the default kb.
btw, I just installed the newest Swype beta and it's simply awesome.

[26 FEB][SD] MIUI custom build (based on MIUI 1.2.19 SD / SD MAGLDR)

I am just posting this build of a chinese version of MIUI (from 3dak) that I was able to add an english lang pack to and modify slightly. This is based on this build here:
HD2 MIUI 1.2.19 SD / SD MAGLDR card - Kernel-AmeriCanAndroid R2.9
http://bbs.xda.cn/forum-viewthread-tid-5875348-extra.html
I am not looking to continue working on this - it works fine on my TMOUS HD2 and I can't think of anything I want to change. If anyone wants to take the build and modify it further - they are of course welcome!
Thanks to every single person that has made this device such an awesome gadget to own. I am currently running WP7 in NAND and boot from SD for MIUI.
Hope it works for you.

[Q] Phone wont show korean/japanese/chinese text

Hi there, first post here. I just flashed the cm insanity mod that was available on the original development forum and i really like it. however, the only gripe i have is that it displays korean/japanese/chinese characters as square boxes on my phone. i tried downloading google's korean IME and it still shows square boxes.
my question is, is there a way to fix this problem? I really like the rom therefore it'd be great if i could find a fix rather than flash another rom.
thanks!
I'm not familiar with that ROM/mod, but I suspect it's because your ROM is using a custom font that doesn't have the glyphs for CJK characters. Put back the original Droid Sans font and it should work correctly.
I just checked the Insanity Mod thread and there is a "Missing Fonts" package you can install, give that a try: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=843019
thanks for helping me out there, i seem to have overlooked it. everything is working fine now, thanks a lot!

[Q] Browser question (reverbnation related)

Hey all, thanks for taking the time to read this
I have a question about browsers....
I have tried many different browsers (mostly the popular ones) and have tried to access the music on my reverbnation page...unfortunately it will not initialize and wont play, I have no Idea why, ive tried changing the user agent to desktop, ipad..etc etc
I did some research on line and on these and different forums but I can only find very very old bits about it. can anyone tell me if they have an android browser that will play music on an artist page on reverbnation and if not, is it reverbnations fault or something missing from android browsers?
if anyone is willing to help and needs more info, please feel free to ask for whatever details you'd like.
first of all... is your android device has flash player? Since android 4.1 and up don't have flash player supported so maybe that's the reason why you can't play music on you browsers.
Hi and thanx for the response..I'm suing a custom rom and flash was installed on it version 11.1.115.17
What is the android version of your custom rom? What is your android device anyway? I'm using a Lg Optimus Black with a custom rom too and flash doesn't work for me either so i think that custom rom just doesn't support flash. Try searching for keywords like "flash player for CM9 on .....(your device's name)" or "flash player for .......(custom's rom name) on .......(your devide's name)" or something around that on google and maybe you can find the solution.
Sorry i'm not that much help but maybe other members of XDA have solutions for you. Wish you luck...

Discussion Thread
I need someone to TEST and doing serious TEST, giving idea, suggestion, opinion for : rom Xperia X10 ported to Dell Venue .
About Beats and Dolby add ON .
I'm in doubt to flash both add on due to I saw overlapping libraries with base ROM , However Beats and Dolby probably will solve the MUTE Rom. Please someone give me idea. Actually that is easy, flashh both add on if something happen we can flash main rom and other stuff, unless Beats+dolby add on.
I made mistake during porting process .... I do not aware there is additional MODs thus I tried to adapt the libs file and delete some apk with the main rom only ... and forgot which one I deleted ..... to start over again from beginning, ... I have no time. So I invite friends in this great forums to help.
Note For Tester
If you face FC ... Please inform and post here, what you have done before
The ROM have TWO Launcher, Experia Home launcher and Stage Launcher .... something NOT WORK/FC/HANK please also inform which launcher did you use.
Final target is delete ALL STAGE STUFF after all xperia X10 stuff working properly, thus we will have 80% xPeria X10 and xPeria S Taste and feature (With help of some CM7 stuff and features) , xPeria Drawer is nice since all Icon can dancing when in idle ... very Nice.
Someone can also try Nova Launcher, Go Launcher, etc.
xPeria have also DOCOMO HOME pls search and try to flash and let us know ... whats hapenning
Proved the rom run smoothly and fast on DV

CM.9 have BIG OBSTACLE on Camera and Now on RIL .... There is a chance to use GENUINE DELL VENUE RIL in Froyo ROM, unfortunately we need to set Sony Playstation SDK to decompile .....[dot]PKG file. I dont know How to obtain FROYO BASEBAND and RIL of dell venue and use on ICS Rom.
For Camera, I have discussed with my Poland Friend, he is suggested to use and try to adapt open source generic camera linux webcam drivers , Without solving the problem in CM 9 ...... MIUI 4 (as Ported ROM) will never work. However I will learn related to MIUI Camera .... is they have their own drivers or only applications. I tweak GB rom just for INTERMEZZO since I clueless to tweak MIUI 4. But I will do best to make MIUI 4 at least equal to CM9 dell venue ....... Just Pray for me .....

Yes, x1123. Actually, right at the moment I'm using 2.3.3 now (Olleh 408). ICS for DV is okay, but is somewhat unfamiliar to me, along with known limitations so I prefer using GB instead. So I totally agree that we should have a stable GB rom for this great device.
Recall the time I built the ROM for DV, with some modifications from original hPa's development files for CM7, I remember that he provided many fixes to make cm7 works for DV. However, when modifying RIL, I think that he added some stuffs that only necessary for Korean networks only. To make a ROM that works generally for any network, we can remove that part. Same way to other things!
So now, what comes into my mind when reading your post is, we should start with a clean CM7/AOSP source code base. Then step by step merge hPa's development files back to the source (we can submit to github, and track changes). After this step, we will have the very necessary base to start development after that (with all unnecessary things removed). Then we can have a stable CM7/gb.
