i tried it and nothing changed
I'm on virusrom and have no problems with flash.
On another note, where is the host file for virus rom? What folder has the file that lists all that ads that are blocked from apps and browsers. I can't seem to find it anywhere.

OK try this. Use root explorer or titanium backup and delete adobe flash. Then try downloading it again from the market.

well, just to let u know when i tried that route it got a bit tricky...make the app folder full R/W and then go to Titanium Backup and delete it, u will need to reboot so the R/W takes effect and then download Flash Player off the market, should install no problem
Edit: The reason u R/W is because when u delete it and try to reinstall it seems to always be unsuccessful on the install...this method fixed it for me
a couple other q's
1) My font color in the notification pulldown is black, with the dark colored pulldown it's really hard to see (especially if i'm outside) .... can I change that text color to white, or a brighter color? ....or did I do something wrong?
2) My keyboard is still the standard keyboard and not the black and blue keyboard from the screenshot ... I really want that keyboard! ....what did I miss??
3) I really like that twitter widget that is in the screenshot on VR page....but I don't have that....how do I get it???
....I probably have more q's, but I can't think of them right now....I couldn't post this in the VR page because I'm a new member and xda won't allow it yet :/
anyone out there??
unfortunately I can't post this to the actual VR forum since I'm a new member with under 10 posts...
...so I'll get my reply, or 10 posts, either way ... it's all good!
thought of another issue...don't think it's the rom because I was having the same issue with tesla coil....my bluetooth headphones disconnect all the time .... never had this problem before tbolt; dx stayed connected, so I don't know what it is about the bolt that would make that happen...
Thought of another issue, ..this thread is dead...
the good news is ...i'm almost at 10 posts
looks like I can't delete these posts...
I am sorry, I know this is annoying...I would just like to be able to post in the other threads...
number 10 .
didn't work ...so now I guess i have another question ....why can't I post in the VR thread!!!???!!!!!!!!!!!
Swype is an amazing piece of software, which makes typing on touchscreen only phones (like the Galaxy Ace) much more convenient (I still prefer the stock Gingerbread keyboard.) The SAMSUNG Galaxy Ace comes preinstalled with Swype, so if you try to install Swype BETA (which is updated, and more accurate) on it, you'll get a licensing error - which is very easy to fix:
Root your phone.
Delete /system/app/Swype.apk using Root Explorer or equivalent thereof.
Go to the email you received and click on the link to download the installer.
Follow the instructions given in the installer to finish installing Swype (BETA)!
This should work for any phone which has Swype preinstalled.
nb. You can request an invite for the BETA from beta<dot>swype<dot>com*
*vB won't let me post external links.
Am struck at the last step. It is taking a hell lot of time to download the swype beta. I interrupted in the middle to check if the net is working fine. I am using wifi and it is doing fine. But the download is not getting completed. Is the size of the file being downloaded that big?

swype wont let 'select swype'
I got a problem with my swype beta and its driving me mad.
All os a sudden my ace wouldnt let me choose the swype beta keyboard anymore.
So i deinstalled and then installed the whole thing. Then when it comes down to the screen of the installer where it says 'Enable swype' and 'select swype', I go into the settings, check the box, and have the same problem as before.
I can check the box nex to swype, but it doesnt have any effect, it still wont let me 'select swype'. And it still wont let me select swype as an input method.
I did not move swype to the ext or anything.
Maybe I accidently moved it the first time with link2sd, other than that I honestly dont know the reason for it to stop working in the first place.
Thanks in advance
NEVER MIND!!! simple reboot did it. should have thought of that earlier. still the lesson is not to move swype to ext

Have you tried clicking on the settings button on the android keyboard, like when you are actually typing something, I did notice that selecting it from the Swype setup thing doesn't seem to work.
Also you can try with this app:

It may seem like unnecessary but it may help you.

Hi all!!!
I was trying to install an update of this fantastic keyboard since I have my SGA but never could till I found this topic and I downloaded the apk file that is some posts before this one and that´s great, so thanks a lot!!!
The bad thing is that after updating swipe, I lost a lot of internal memory, I had almost 40mb and now I have 17mb...how could be??? swipe pre installed on my phone was almost 10mb, and the new one is a little bigger, 10,24mb, so I should have at least 35mb not 17!!!
If anyone can help me I would be very happy!!!
Thanks

Maybe I understood you wrong, but my suggestion would be that you did not deinstall the preinstalled swype. Swype BETA does not automatically do that for you. Did you mean aou were updating swype beta???
Another explanation could be that your words in the dictionary were deleted when you dit the update. But that would have been a lot of words then...
Thanks for answering!!!
I first installed the apk file of swipe that was posted here and that was when swipe was so big in size and took all my internal memory...then I uninstalled the update bia settings and uninstalled original swipe with Root Uninstaller...but when I tried to install the new apk file posted here it told me that it was not installed...
Finally I unistalled the original file again, installed swipe beta installer, and installed the new version of swipe...Now, it constantly tells me that the swipe process has made an unknown error and must close, I can't even use the phone because the message appears every 3 seconds...
I need help please!!!
Thanks
Edit----------------------------------
Well, here it is what I did, I uninstalled everything, original swipe, swipe installer, I used "Cache Mate" to clear cache, "Titanium Backup" to clear dalvik cache, turned off my phone, turned it on again and installed the apk version posted here, before opening swipe I changed it to phone internal memory and problem of installing and using swipe is solved... but it still occupies more memory than the original swipe... wasn't it supposed to be smaller in size???

Wow, sounds like your device really went mayhem on you...
Maybe you could just try to install swype beta once on the normal way, you know webpage, email, link installer, install.
I dont really think that will help with the memory. it is really wierd that it still sucks up memory somewhere, even though you cleaned all caches...
Maybe you could use DiskUsage (Market, for free) to find the bad thing doing that.
Haha, it was driving me crazy but searching for another things I found the UOT Kitchen and I don't know why, but that was all, I made a theme and after flashing it with the "how to" guide in the kitchen page my internal memory came back...I didn't erase a single app, and all apps I have are the same size they where before!
Thanks for answering!
Cheers!

Hello,

Mine displays Arabic out of the box...
Edit: Wait, I take that back. It displays the characters but in right to left, rather than left to right as they should be.
The letters need to be connected too.
any arabic for this
arabic support
Go to the market and look for Arabic browser, its the second one, its a patch you can apply it in your phone, you phone has to be root.
Any Arabic for this yet that i could flash with odin???

Thank you, I rooted my phone and tried the Arabic browser, finally I can read Arabic on my note I717.
Also, if you want to be able to type in Arabic, SwiftKey X supports it and a long list of other languages. I use it for typing things in German. Sadly you just missed the 49 cent sale that was going on.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...GwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS50b3VjaHR5cGUuc3dpZnRrZXkiXQ..
until we get a real solution you can use Opera mini which i am using now and it displays arabic pages correctly. i think normal Opera will work too but i haven't tried it.
for the keyboard i am using miltiling keyboard, it is free and support arabic. it will allow you to type in arabic and there is an option to make it connect the letters for you but it may not display correctly for iphone users (which we don't care for anyway lol)
Here is a test using that keyboard:
ﺍﺧﺘﺒﺎﺭ ﺍﻟﻜﺘﺎﺑﺔ ﺑﺎﻟﻌﺮﺑﻲ ﻓﻲ ﺟﻬﺎﺯ ﻗﺎﻟﻜﺴﻲ ﻧﻮﺕ ﻏﻴﺮ ﻣﻌﺮﺏ
sent from my Galaxy Note (stock rom, and not rooted yet)
Ok, i got a solution. not very straight forward but it works. and you need "root"
There are two solutions:
1- The first thing you need to do is deodex your rom or get one that is already deodexed like TPC rom here
Then use the patching script made by madmack from here
This script should patch these files:
framework.jar
libandroid_runtime.so
libicuuc-arabic.so
libwebcore.so
which will fix Arabic for every thing, i used the latest patcher 0.907 which now works for the Galaxy Note.
anyway, you can copy these files over to your phone "fix the user owner and permission" or use the zip file that was also generated by the patching script and flash it using CWM recovery. I attached the file i generated using my stock and deodexed rom it should work for you as well if you have the same phone and same rom (Stock 2.3.6).
Reboot and clean the cache and dalvik cache.
Now browser, gmail, twitter, whatsapp, facebook...etc should show the arabic correctly.
2- Fixing the browser and gmail only: this is easier and doesn't need deodex (since it patches lib files only) but it still need root and will not fix twitter, whatsapp and the other applications.
This fix also uses madmack patch.
The fix is here
or you can go directly to the android market "Google Play" and install the patcher, it is very easy and will patch the file with a single click from your phone
Thanks to madmack and brightidea and anyone who made this possible.
This is for AT&T Galaxy Note only (i717) (2.3.6) the same process should work for other phones as well, but the attached files will only work with this phone.
Thanks for all the info man. Have you tested this method thoroughly? No bugs or errors here or there? I'm still considering whether I should get it now or wait till ICS then look for a solution after that lol

My phone runs great since then, btw this patching method is not new and has been tested before on so many phones, i was using it with my old Nexus S, I also did a similar thing two days ago to arabize a Galaxy S II and that one works great too.

1- What ROM are you running now on your phone?
2- Is it deodex?
3- Have you installed a recovery tool other than the default? (like CWM, or TWRP)
* if you don't know what these means then i would recommend that you search for those terms and learn about them before you start doing stuff to your phone or you might end up with a bricked device.

1- I am not running any ROM except when I open ROM manager
I have this called Flash ClockworkMod Recovery above (reboot into recovery)
when I click on it, it shows list of phone types such as (commtiva Z71, Dell Streak, Geeksphone ONE, Samsung Epic4G, Samsung galaxy i9000, Samsung T-mobile Galaxy s2.........etc)
2- I have no clue what deodex is but I think not.
3- I honestly did not install any of these recovery.
Yes I have no idea about those terms and I wish someone can do a video to install arabic from scratch on Youtube. I have looked around but I couldn't find anything for Samsung Galaxy note I717 AT&T.

Don't worry, I won't, because it doesn't fix the problem.
I've got the same thing on XWLP7. My date and time is set to DD/MM/YYYY and the lockscreen is telling me that today is 5 May, Sat.
thats correct,no matter what i do in settings,it changes nothing on the lockscreen.
Hi,
I tried to change DPI through LCD density modder app to dpi 226 in my sgs2.
After that the phone dont boot-up and got stuck at yellow triangle screen
I can go to CMW mode but dnt have any backup in that.i flashed Cf root again to check if that work,but nothing happen
NOTE: it got bricked because of change in DPI.not because of flashing wrong kernel so Flashing kernel wont help me
What to do,please help me
Can you mount USB in CWM to change the kernel ?
Because some kernels, like Siyah (I THINK ! I don't use Siyah...) purpose to clear some folder including DPI section...
So you can try to take one of this kernels, flash one, and find this option...
I'm not sure, just a supposition

You should be able to connect to your computer in CWM recovery mode, and edit the dpi setting in your build.prop file.
failing that, worst case scenario, just copy a new rom to ya sd and flash it in cwm, a custom one
seriously, you got bitten my friend, next time, do a nandroid backup and backup ya efs folder, double protection, coz seriously if ya gonna mess with stuff like the build.prop then ya need a backup plan.
If you really want to alter the dpi, then check the lcd density changers on google play, theres a few, but i know a couple of them let you test the dpi out first to see if it works on ya phone, if it doesnt it reverts back.

As above;
1. Download & instal Windows PC programs "Android Commander" and "NotePad++ "(not NotePad)
2. Boot into CWM Recovery
3. Connect to PC USB & allow/edit for any drivers to instal
4. Run Android Commander
5. Navigate to system/build.prop & copy to PC & edit ro.sf.lcd_density=240 with NotePad++. Check there are no entries added by the app (delete them if so) Save and exit
6. Replace build.prop with edited version
7. Exit program, connect USB and reboot
8. All else fails, wipe cache/Dalvik and reflash ROM.
Hope this helps
Edit: don't forget to remove/delete the LCD Modder app from data/app with Android Commander before rebooting, otherwise it may force your previous density changes and back to square one.
You can also extract the build.prop from your ROM download zip with 7Zip and use above method to replace it.

Thank you all for your help
when i flashed CF-ROOT,i didn't work,but when i flashed STOCK KERNEL,it worked
i saw the odin log,stock rom has factory image file which correct the DPI.i think so
Thanks for giving your precious time
I found this thread through google, so thought i might post my experiences for the next person that finds this the same way, maybe some of it will be relevant...
So i did the same thing with my galaxy Note: changed DPI with LCD density modder app, restarted and the phone wouldn't get past the white samsung screen.
I followed UpInTheAir's guide to step 7, but phone still wouldn't start. I hadn't made a backup of the EFS folder so i was getting pretty scared at this point as loading a new rom will wipe this folder and render the phone useless (as far as i understand)
I was reading elsewhere that the permissions need to be set to rw-r--r-- on the build.prop file, so i tried doing this with Android Commander with the phone in CWM recovery. Android Commander was spazzing out, error message when the program opens, constant "loading" bar going, but i just ignored all that. I went to /system/build.prop properties and tried to set the permissions to rw-r--r-- but after accepting that and going to properties again it hadn't updated the permissions.
I've never flashed a ROM before, or changed kernel, but i decided this might be a good time to learn.
I loaded franco.Kernel-r5 for galaxy Note (sorry if this is irrelevant in an S-II forum) but loading into CWM that is built into this kernel (i think it was a different version than i was using before) i was then able to update the permissions with Android Commander(tho it was still spazing out).
Restarted and BOOM she loaded. Understandably i was thanking God big time at that point
anyway, hopefully something in this mess of a post might come in useful to somebody , thanks for the good info UpInTheAir!
Hello, I had the same problem and had to re-flash the firmware.
I've seen on dpi changers comments on market that A LOT OF PEOPLE get the softbrick.
i want to change my dpi.
how am i supposed to do it ?
I can't believe my phone can't stand changing DPI.
Ive changed mine a few times by altering the build prop file but the icons were never centered properly. Eveything was smaller but moved towards top left of the screen. Since then i used Density Modder pro with no issues.

First of all you will get better answers if you asked in your device's relevant thread, TouchWiz Home usually doesn't take too well to dpi changes, you need to install a custom launcher app like apex or Nova, try installing one via adb, and then reboot and select your custom launcher as default when the system prompts you to select a launcher.

Thanks for your help!! My phone is ok now..
same issue
Having the same issue I'm using Asus memo pad smart 10. Stuck in the boot screen after I tried to change my LCD density through ROM toolbox. Been like that for days. Do I need to follow the same procedure?
Thx
If you can enter recovery then flash maybe some DPI changer or what

Try booting your device into safe mode, it should boot without loading the app that you installed to modify dpi. If you successfully boot into safe mode, you can uninstall the app then reboot.
