[Q] Installing swype Beta 3.0? - HTC EVO 3D

now there is a temp root. is it possible to remove the pre-installed swype, so I can install in the beta 3.0? I liked that version much better then the installed 2.5+.
or if it is possible, will it just revert to 2.50 after restarting the phone?

Thanks Man. Ha. i actually read that thread, before the Temp Root was achieved. it did'nt occur to me that the answer could be in there.. - i did search for swype in the evo3d Development thread. figuring if it was about it being rooted, it would be posted in there. but did'nt find anything.. So I posted asking.. thanks again man.

I know this is probably pretty obvious to the veteran members, but might help others like myself.
The files you will have to delete/rename are set to read only, if you try to access them through a file manager like Astro. Instead, you need to remove the files via the terminal emulator.
This was the process I used since the preinstalled version was terrible, and I wasn't worried about compromising functionality(ie, just deleting the apk)
su
cd system/app
rm Swype.apk
I didn't modify or remove libSwypecore.so however.
Now you should be able to use the beta installer to install 3.0.
Hope this helps someone out.

Thanks man, i'll try that..after doing this if I restart, will the 2.50 pre installed swype be restored, or will it stay the new beta 3.0?

Nope, you will go back to 2.5.

No way as of yet. I have tried disabling the pre-installed and installing the new one. Tried "deleting" it and installing the new one also. After a reboot you will have one of two outcomes : 1) Back to 2.5 swype or 2) Swype beta, but you can type only as it will not be licensed.

[FIX] See ALL apps in Market (froyo only apps, and paid/protected apps) Automated!

laymil has posted a much better script for this. As such I will be discontinuing my work on this for now. Not for any hard feelings, but because it is now beyond me to help any further.
As always I am glad to have helped the community in some small way. Thank you all
CHEERS
Geniusdog254 Posted the exact lines in the build prop that needed to be changed. This is a pretty common fix for problems like this between versions of Android. There was some concern however that you may miss some of the newer apps released only for Froyo. I wrote some simple scripts that will fix this for us.
Simply: One puts the Froyo build.prop on your phone. The other puts the modded build.prop on your phone.
Prerequisites
YOU MUST HAVE GSCRIPT INSTALLED
YOU MUST HAVE BUSYBOX INSTALLED
(IF YOU ARE USING PAULS FROYO ROM FROM HERE
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=686631
IT DOES NOT HAVE BUSYBOX INSTALLED
Also--
There are now 2 downloads.
One will reboot your phone automatically
One will not!
(I recommend this one for anyone that has problems, or doesn't know ADB well.)
Installation
Code:
Download the attached .zip file
Place the "buildprop" folder in the root of your sdcard
Place both "Normal_Froyo.sh" and "Modded_Froyo" files in the gscript folder on your sdcard
Code:
Open Gscript
Press menu and select Add Script
Press Load File button
Select Normal_Froyo file
Press Save button at bottom
Repeat for Modded_Froyo file
After that all you have to do is open gscript and select which one to run.
Normal_Froyo will give you stock froyo build.prop and let you see froyo only apps
Modded_Froyo will give you the market fix build.prop
You can also create shortcuts directly on your homescreen for each script if you wish
-----------------------------------------------
I've decided to skip the update.zip, I've found no way to copy the scripts to the gscript folder on the sdcard this way.
I'm going for an app instead.
P.S. I've never written an app before, java looks like russian to me lol. So if anyone has any tips, or knows any good tut's let PM me and let me know.
------------------------------------------------
fixed no buildprop folder
added NON-autoreboot download.
buildprop switcher v0.3.zip ORIGINAL
buildprop_switcher_no_rebootv0.3.zip NO REBOOT
buildprop swticher v0.3.1.zip DOWNLOAD THIS ONE
When the file is unzipped, there are 4 files - No Buildprop folder. Now I get the part about putting the two .sh files into Gscript folder.
Do I make another folder called buildprop and put build.2.1 and build.2.2 inside?
OR
Do I put build.2.1 and build.2.2 onto the root of the SDCARD?

So sorry lol Didn't notice until I was making the update.zip that I didn't put the other files in a folder IN the zip. Just make a folder on your sdcard called buildprop. and put them in there.
BTW testing the flashable update.zip method right now
thx, seems to work
so no more *#*#etc.. afterwards?

Right.. the checkin service runs on each reboot. So it is not needed.
Worked just fine, but I did have to do the checkin thing. Possibly had poor signal but checkin hadn't done on reboot. Worked fine after that...

Can the checkin method be used, instead of rebooting? I'd much rather switch back and forth via checkin rather than having to reboot.
Thanks.

The reboot is built into the script. On my phone, if I checkin, the apps still don't show till I reboot. But show if I only reboot. If checkin alone works for you though, you can remove the reboot command from the script.
I'm not sure what happened, but after following the instructions exactly, my phone crapped. It got as far as the first nexus logo (non-animated), then the buttons lit up and I got a black screen. And that's how it stayed.
Any ideas?
This worked great for me I also solved my (unrelated) prob with SlideIt by forcing the dictionary to save in the settings, so I'm no longer bothered about losing shortcuts stuff on a reboot.
Dandy!!
tested again with a second n1. works perfect! automated checkin works perfect.
Can you please post what changed in the .prop file.
Also you didn't add the video codecs in the "new" prop file

The only thing I changed from the stock to the "modded" build.prop were these 2 lines
from this
ro.build.description=passion-user 2.2 FRF50 38042 release-keys
ro.build.fingerprint=google/passion/passion/mahimahi:2.2/FRF50/38042:user/release-keys
to this
ro.build.description=passion-user 2.1-update1 ERE27 24178 release-keys
ro.build.fingerprint=google/passion/passion/mahimahi:2.1-update1/ERE27/24178:user/release-keys
I didn't add anything else to these. If you would like other things added to the build.prop files. You are welcome to edit them yourselves, or let me know what things you want changed, and I can include them.
I can make it user friendly. With descriptions for each modded line, then you can simply un-comment the options that you want.
PS: I thought I had the flashable update ready, but the update-script is giving me problems. ANYONE that wants to help please let me know. I'd really like to get this out to everyone.

To anyone that can't get thier phone to boot all the way after doing this
Its not a big deal. Your phone booted. But the build.prop didn't get copied before the reboot.
If you did a nandroid before you tried it. Restore that!
If you didn't, OR you know how to use adb. Do this
Code:
adb remount
adb push [COLOR="red"]/path/to/build.2.1(or)build.2.2[/COLOR] /system/build.prop
adb reboot
I hope to have this fixed quickly.
ANYONE WHO'S PHONE WILL NOT BOOT AFTERWARDS!
Check and make sure you put the files in the right place.
build.2.2
&
build.2.1
go in
build.prop FOLDER ON YOUR SDCARD
that was the only reason I got the error, i deleted the files off my card when i was testing the flashable update.
If you still get an error. open both files in the gscript folder, and remove or comment out the reboot line. Then tell me what error you get in gscript.
So I did this and am able to see the new apps. When I reboot the phone I cannot see a bunch of old apps in my launcher. I revert to the normal script and reboot again and still cannot see a bunch of my apps. Appbrain says theyre installed and I can open them from there but no widgets or shortcuts for them Any Ideas?

Are those apps moved to the SD by any chance? If so, best bet is to go to Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>Find your launcher, and force stop it. Should work after that.

Nope they're not on SD. I'll try the fc of launcher.
Ok it worked thank you! but my xiia widget still is not back and I'm assuming others. Anything I can do for the widgets?
Ok installed and reinstated the app. Works great thx again.
Update:
Ok after another reboot, apps don't show again. FC the launcher they come back but not the widgets.. Grrrrrr...

New Market works with NC!

For those of you who got the Market working, there is a Market update that is getting released. I installed it on my HTC HD2, but the same file would not work on the Nook. I did some searching and found one that works on the Galaxy Tab w/stock Eclair. It works on the NC!!
Requirement: You MUST have a working market. Follow this thread or this thread for more excellent info (and work) on enabling the Market.
Simply replace the Vending.apk in /system/app/ with this file (rename it Vending.apk first), reboot, and you are good to go! I would recommend backing up the original Vending.apk so that you can replace it if anything should go wrong for you.
You can use Root Explorer with /system/app in r/w mode, but it is simple to do via adb as well:
adb shell mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system
adb shell mv /system/app/Vending.apk /system/app/oldVending.apk
adb push Vending.apk /system/app
adb reboot
**If you have problems, simply delete the Vending.apk, and replace it with the oldVending.apk
There is a newer version of the Market posted by devis and Xhorder in this post. Please use it instead. It fixes the weird star artifacts of this version. Instructions are exactly the same.
DO NOT simply click it to install. If it happened to work for you that way, you were lucky. You really should replace the Vending.apk with this file. Also, I saw one user report that the search function didn't allow Market searches. I believe they are the only one with that issue, and I'm not sure how they installed this. I assume they did not follow instructions, as my guide backs up the original file, and the person with the issue is asking for the orig apk. So, YMMV, but follow this instructions, and you should be fine.
Sweet! Worked for me. Danke, Herr Bimboy.
Very nice!
I actually found that the new market apk you provided installs fine as an update (no replacement of /system/app/Vending.apk needed). I opted for that as the safer option.
Thanks again!
Works very well! Very nice interface.
One issue: The "OK" and "Update" buttons are sometimes just slivers at the top of the screen. Doesn't prevent it from working though. You just have to be careful with your clicking.
Adding: This version doesn't have the problem of not listing all of the apps when you're in portrait mode. It simply works. And when you tell it to install/update an app, it does it RIGHT FRIGGIN' NOW and I mean Fassssst!
Thanks! Works great.
One question - Is there any way to get the fingerprint from the tab w/eclair? This would potentially give us access to some tablet-specific apps, like WSJ...

The old market did that too. I don't think we'll see a fix for that before a Froyo port. The upper search link doesn't always work either. The Market is expecting the upper status bar to be on the top of the screen, and we do not have that.
I wondered if that was just on mine lol , frustrating
So frustrated! I finally get my market working today and then I try this upgrade and it won't work. So I try to go back to the old one and it has stopped working too. I don't get what I did wrong. Of everything I did to get my nook rooted and working, this was the simplest part.
New version won't work in mine either. After accepting the agreement, it just closes.
Market 2.26 is supposed to be for Froyo+ only. How did you guys get it to Work?
Switched back to old Market.. everything is ok again
Tried this, got to click "accept" and then it vanished. Back to old market for me too.
I updated it with Astro and it worked fine. It's better to install apk's with Astro than others methods.
Guys, as I mentioned, do not just adb install, or click do a normal install. Save out your /system/app/Vending.apk and use this file to replace it, after renaming it Vending.apk. Then reboot.
I also tried simply installing it, and the Market app would only briefly flash or I could get to the catalog but not get to the details page of any app without force closing. That's why you should back up the Vending.apk file.
So, REPLACE the /system/app/Vending.apk, reboot and you'll be fine.
First, rename the file to Vending.apk
Use adb:
adb shell mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system
adb shell cp /system/app/Vending.apk /system/app/oldVending.apk
adb push Vending.apk /system/app/
adb reboot

I did this too, I just saved it to my mircoSD card and open Astro, clicked on the .apk and ran upgrade and everything works great now. My market is working 100%
I guess Astro knows what is doing because before update it warns about you' re updating a system app.

[Q] Swype / SlideIt / Shapewriter

I don't get it. I'm on caulkin and clems 2.2 rom and when I try to change the keyboard it warns me of possible data collection and asks if I want to proceed....but the box wont stay checked. Both slideit and swype do this. I haven't found shapewriter yet. Someone tell what I am doing wrong plz!!!! I can't stand this keyboard.
The rom you are using does not support changes in keyboard. Do this:
1) Open root explorer
2) Navigate to sdcard/data/apps
3) Long press>edit>copy the apk of the keyboard you want to use
4) Navigate in root explorer to system/data/apps
5) Mount r/w
6) Paste
7) Mount r/o
8) <<Do the same for all your other input methods you want to install>>
9) Reboot and it now works.

First, I just wanted to thank you since no one else replied! I tried to upgrade to the latest Calkulin and Clem combo but the tablet doesn't like the newer kernel so I put Pershoot's latest kernel on instead.
Robeet is apparently pulling all his ROMs and developing one called Mountain Laurel. Honestly, I don't know what a good ROM is. I want GPU acceleration so I guess that means I have to use a 2.2 ROM because Ginger doesn't accelerate. And I want NTFS access.
ANYWAAAAYyyyy..... I tried to find the apk in the sdcard/data/apps and it didn't seem to be there. I tried to move the original installer apk file (sitting in my download folder) to the folder you suggested but I'm guessing that it's not THAT apk you are telling me to move. But may be I'm wrong.
Any idea what I'm doing wrong? Besides this and not getting any EA games to work (??...they won't download additional data) I actually like the ROM I'm on.
So unless you think I should change ROMs or know what I'm doing wrong I guess I'm screwed right now.
Hey,
No problem I was equally new 2 months back and had great help from the community. Next time when you can solve probs for others do it too
I personally love Roebeet's roms so i think TNT Lite is awesome.
If the apk is not there, it is probably in data/apk_private. Btw, if you are using swype, the beta version doesnt seem to work -> i tried a month back. Not sure about slideit. I used shapewriter before on the g tab and found it incredibly ugly haha.
For swype you need a modded version:
Instructions:
1) Google this: swype v2.6.48.12226 wsvga
2) Click on first result
3) Go to post 53 and read it.

FolioComb_3.0.1_v0.3a TIPS, PATCHES, BUGS and TRICKS

First of all, I want to thanks Dexter for his work. I made this threade for some help for FolioComb bugs reporting and patches updates.
This rom is awsome!
HONEYCOMB_3.0.1_v0.3a
BUGS and SOLUTIONS:
1. Lots of apps crashes(to fix enter in fastboot "fastboot-w" pr move apps from sd to tablet)
2. Android Market and YouTube apps don't work very well. Market don't have paid and all free apps even after enabling with Market Enabler and YouTube say "video unable to play"
3. When I try to install app from sdcard, app installer shows, but can't press install button(strange bug, only solution is factory reset)
Go here and go to end of page and you'll see list of app that you can and can't unistall(this is for CyanogenMod, but it's smilar to FolioComb and it android too)
4. Camera crashes and if try with another camera app, I get black screen and camera don't activate(blue light near camera)
5. Home button don't work
6. Little laggy(install OC kernel)
7. SOD(with OC kernel)
I'll update list with bugs, solutions and patches.
that's nice of you to create such a thread!
I have all those issues that others have reported so decided to move back to FolioMod... this apps FC issue really is a nasty one, so hopefully your patch can help a lot of ppl here
You don't understand me. I don't make patch, I only put Dexter patches on one place, because it's easier to find them all on one place.

thx
you are talking about the honeycomb for folio right?
but i'm still using v1.4 haha````
after reading your thread i'm think about to try the honeycomb
two problem with solution for FC's
Jon2555 said:
I found solution for FC's(I'm not expert and if you don't think this is true, say):
1. After downloading or restoring and installing apps and they don't work(like CPU Master or Angry Birds), install Root Explorer(If someone need it say me)
2. Open it and go to /data/app and find app that don't work and you want to work
3. Long-press and press "extract all"
4. After extracting press "Go to extracte directory"
5. Open app directory and go to lib
6. Copy all files(if there's directory(ies) go inside) and go to /system/lib and past it
7. Exit Root Explorer(reboot if you want or if app don't work), open app and enjoy!
This isn't work for all apps but it shoud(for me works)

I solve ... it's easy :
- some app is into \sdcard\ and we can reserch ( es search : com.rovio and found angry birds.apk )
- if folder is only read in top on root explorer we can change permission ( button r/o)
Any root explorer free clone
I can't move my files and I can't find any file manager that let me do su operations...How come, the android store just look like the app store ! (yeah kinda troll)
More over my birds were free on foliomod and i need to pay now there is only the beta release which is free...looks wierd !
Anyway, I'm still happy cause it is quite smooth after all except for those fc apps...
I've installed application explorer which tells me that angry birds data are in /data/data/ isn't it strange...there's nothing in it...well the gamme fc so maybe it is normal !
angry birds is installed in /mnt/asec, if i managed to move the directory where should i put it ? in /sdcard or /sdcard2 or /sdcard/sdcard-disk0 ?
what is that mess (just like my post ?
search and install applanet by internet then download root explorer. i use this way for try..
I said if need Root Explorer ask me and I'll upload apk via PM

[MOD][COG-4][UnNamed] Over-scroll Glow!

Discontinued. The latest versions of all previously supported ROMs have this functionality built in.
This gives you an over-scroll glow when you reach the end of a list.
I really hope you knew that before clicking on this thread.
Example if you don't know what I'm talking about
It's just a modified framework.jar with modified files allowing the over-scroll to work and the correct glow images assigned to it. Theming is very easy, just colorize the over-scroll glow pngs in framework-res.apk. The default is orange.
What I want to do with this thread is sort of have a place where you can find the over-scroll enabling mod for every popular ROM for our phones. If you think I should support a ROM that I currently don't, then please post in the forums because I read every post! Ask to put a ROM on the wishlist. Upload the ROM's framework-res.apk and framework.jar files and I'll work on it when I'm not busy with school.
Currently, the wish list is:
Stock KH7
[Update on 10/15/11] UnNamed v1.0.1 compatible files uploaded. Give them a try. Honorable mention to quarlow
Installation:
BACK UP YOUR OLD FRAMEWORK.JAR
Because I'll just laugh at you if you complain that your phone won't boot up.
>>>ADB:
Code:
Extract the CWM package to get the framework.jar
adb remount
adb shell
su
cd /system/framework/
cp framework.jar framework.jar.backup
exit
exit
adb push framework.jar /system/framework/
adb reboot
>>>ROOT EXPLORER:
Extract the CWM package to get the framework.jar
Okay, now you can theoretically do this, but why would you want to? You'll get lots of crashes and might mess something important up.
Go to: /system/framework/ and rename framework.jar to something else. Go back to where-ever you saved my modified framework.jar and copy it over to /system/framework/ and change the permissions of the new framework.jar to match the old one. I'm pretty sure it's rw-r--r--, but don't quote me on that. + Restart your phone.
Simba501 has a more indepth tutorial on how to install this mod through Root Explorer here
>>>RECOVERY (preferred):
Flash the one specific to the ROM you're running
Whatever method you choose, know that it will take a stupidly long time for your phone to boot-up. Don't worry though, it'll be worth the wait.
Yoderk created some cool themes for the over-scroll glow for Cognition Beta-4 which you can find HERE.
UnNamed 1.0.1 works with 1.0.2 and 1.0.3 as well.
Also, please remember to say THANKS if I helped you!
cwm please!!

It's there if you REALLY need it. I haven't tested it and to be honest, it's been a very very long time since I made my last CWM compatible file. Maybe it works though, try it out. If not, then use one of the other methods.
Fine work sir! Works well on Cog Beta 4.

That's awesome! Someone test it on stock w/ root, because if it works there, I'll be amazed.
Confirming that the cwm flashable zip works on cog beta 3!
Working fine here. I'm technically on Beta 1, but I've manually added the components I wanted from each Beta update because there were things I didn't want.
I have a suggestion. I don't know why everyone repeats that method for using root explorer. That's a terrible way to do it. I always use root explorer to manually replace my files and have never experienced any issues. Here is the correct way to use root explorer for manually replacing modded files:
1. Navigate to the file that you plan to replace (in this case, system/framework/framework.jar).
2. Copy (not move) the file and paste it somewhere on your SD card (internal or external, doesn't matter - as long as you can locate it in case you need to put it back). Rename the file you just pasted, but very subtly. For example, when renaming framework.jar, I would only throw something in front of the file name, such as "Backup - framework.jar", so I can easily distinguish it from the new file if I put them in the same spot.
3. NANDROID BACKUP!
4. Download/put on your sd card (whatever you do) the new file that you want to replace the old one with.
5. Move the new file to /system (not in a subfolder yet). Here you will change the permissions, which is crucial to avoid FCs and problems. In root explorer, you would long press the file, press permissions, and set them to whatever the old file's permissions are. This may require going to verify what they are before starting this step. In this case, the permissions are RW-R-R, which in root explorer, means that the first two boxes on the first line are checked and only the first box on the next two lines are checked.
6. Ensure that your new file is correctly named to exactly what it is replacing (case actually matters) and that the permissions also match what it is replacing.
7. Move your new file to the folder, root explorer will ask if you want to replace the file. Confirm.
8. Back out of root explorer and immediately reboot.
No force closes, no problems .
Cwm file worked great on cog beta 4. Thnkz!!

Thanks! I added your tutorial to the OP.
Well if your like me and hate orange! Then here are two framework-res.apk with a blue and green overscroll color. Just rename them to framework-res.apk and overwrite the original file in system/framework.
Do not forget to back up original file! I claim no responsibility to problems.
Very subtle but a very nice touch...kudos...came zip worked great!!!

stock with root, i've got nothing. tried root explorer method and cwm
Does this still have the problem of not changing the Contacts or other Samsung apps?

Alright this may be Cog4 only... if you want, upload your framework.jar and framework-res.apk and I'll mod it for you and let me know if that works.

Yes. Those need the tw-framework to be modified and I haven't taken a look at those yet since I'm trying out Perception for a couple of days and that already has it coded in? But it isn't a problem per-say, it's just how Samsung decided to code those specific apps and there isn't a way to implement them in 2.3.4 without breaking the slide left to call, slide right to message, feature. 2.3.5 Roms have that built in on Samsung apps.
Problem probably isn't the best word.
Thanks for answering though. I always wanted the overscroll but having mixed bothered me.

Well it's not that pressing of an issue, but maybe I'll send it to you later but right now I'm Dealing with insane iPhone customers, makes me want to hang myself... If 2.3.5 is gonna be coming sometime soon I wouldn't care about the wait.
Anyone know about 2.3.5 ota eta?

There's a leaked 2.3.5 ROM for the i777 but personally I'm using designgear's Perception which is a port of a i9100 ROM and it works perfectly. I'd recommend the latter since leaked ROMs tend to have problems.

could you modify the framework.jar for UnNamed v1.0.1 - First ever well documented and open source stock derived rom? It has the extended power menu and if I overwrite the framework.jar using this it will break that extended power menu. Much thanks for getting the overscroll glow!!

I'll give it a try if there's enough demand for it.
