That doesn't work for everyone, so a more permanent solution will have to be devised.

i've done this mod that exact same way on my aria with 4 different roms with no issues at all every time.
you really just need to save the qwerty.kl file and push it to the phone. reboot into recovery, go to the partitions menu, mount the system partition, push the file via adb, reboot your phone and voila.

SEARCH...!
Please take a moment to review the forum rules with regards to searching existing threads prior to creating a new one, and also regarding the proper sections to post in. Moving to General as this is not a Development thread.

I've done that. The qwerty.kl method just simply isn't working for some people.
This worked for me
Couldn't figure out how to add attachments to this post, and it won't let me add an external link since it's a new forum account. google ojwake-signed.zip or something.
Steps: Load file to SD card, boot in to recovery mode, install zip, locate this zip on flash card, reboot.
(ojwake-signed.zip)
Don't remember where i got this, but kudos to that guy!

Just to make it even easier on you
EDIT-Short Version...Download file from link above
-:Have Clockwork Recovery Installed and know how to use ADB:-
-DOWNLOAD ATTACHED to linked post qwerty.kl (may need 7zip to extract file from archive...)
-BOOT into CLOCKWORK recovery with NO USB PLUGGED INto phone!!!
-PARTITIONS>MOUNT /SYSTEM
-adb push qwerty.kl /system/usr/keylayout|adb reboot
As far as I know, this ridiculously simply method of pushing qwerty.kl has worked for everyone except the few that didn't boot into clockwork correctly, once they booted into clockwork correctly it then worked for them.
I updated the instructions to be crystal clear for all you noobs. If pushing a file to your android device is too painfully complicated for you, I suggest you read/search more and figure out what you are actually doing.
Neverwhere10's steps are just as painfully complicated, but at least he is providing some constructive input.
Thanks!

This mod is built into the CM6 rom.

There is also a setting in one of the menus if you are using any of attn1's cm roms for this same thing. I currently have my aria set this way and I am using cm008 as of right now.

This is an interesting question, maybe we should take a test to see, and I want to ask and optical sensor is the same?
Hi! Whenever i try to flash a ROM i go into the Android one, not clockword mod recovery. Can someone give me a tutorial/help me? Thanks!
I'm assuming you already used Odin to put CWM on your phone?
You need to press the volume up/down keys + the power button all at the same time to get it to come up.

Is there a difference from doing it that way or just holding my power button down and selecting recovery?
No, but if you're stock I don't think you'll have that option. I suppose it depends on what you flashed to get CWM on your phone in the first place.
Thanks! I just got my phone and have unnamed so that option is there when i hold pwr button. Just wanted to make sure it was the same.
First off, my apologies if this is in the wrong forum. Mods, you may move this thread if need be. I was just shown this website about two weeks ago by a friend and have only been a lurker since. So I apologize if my first post is one needing assistance.
First off, I am not the most knowledgeable person when it comes to doing all this reboot,recovery, root,etc. But I can usually figure stuff out. I have researched how to do all this stuff over the last to weeks learning how to do all this. Let it be known that I was already rooted with siyah 3.4.2? kernel with superuser, CWM, and had ROM Manager downloaded. Last night I had finally decided to try and download a custom rom (AOKP), and I went through ROM Manager to try and reboot into recovery mode..the phone went dead. I have not been able to turn the phone on since last night. I have tried taking the battery out, trying to hold down volume buttons/power button to get into download mode, etc..But nothing is happening. When I power on, I can see the screen where it says "Samsung Galaxy SII" w/ the triangle, but then the screen goes black and nothing. In a dark room, you can see that the screen looks like it's trying to fire by flickering, but again...nothing. Sorry if this has been alot of reading, but I just want to be as thorough as I can. If anybody can tell me what went wrong, and how it might be fixed, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks

Remove the battery and replace it. hold the up/down volume and power button. The screen should light up. Continue to hold them until the phone goes into recovery mode. The phone should turn on and off a couple times before it enters recovery. Then wipe the data and caches. Hopefully at the point the phone will work. If it wont work you could always try to buy a download jig. They are only a couple dollars and can easily be found with a search.

That usually cause more trouble than it's worth. Espeically for a noob. I had been in that situation back when I first start doing it. First thing I used was CWM and I had the same/similar problem.
That is why everyone here always mentioned to not use CWM.

@BigCohiba,
You need to get into download mode. You should be able to do that without using a jig. With the phone off, but with the battery still in the phone, hold down vol- and vol+ (but not power) while you plug in the usb cable.
The following instructions given by fakhri should also work:

After that, flashing siyah kernel alone may be enough to allow the phone to boot, but you may have trouble finding a Siyah in Odin flashable tar format.
...or, flash straight stock UCKH7, or flash stock plus root UCKH7. You can find download links for those in one or the other of the guides linked in my signature.
Please let us know your success or problems as you proceed.

If 2.3.5 u are locked and cant unlock ur bootloader till now no one had found a way to do that but u can root and install boodstrap a kind of recovery to locked phones and u can flash some roms that are available for locked bootloader as hybrid rom it is really good

Thank you for a decent reply. Currently I am rooted with Photon Torpedo, bootstrap MOTODX2, with MOF 2.3.5 slim DeBlure. It runs very nice and everything works great. I just play with my phone alot, and seems you have to boot to go into boostrap recovery. Then plug into ac charger and run recovery. I am unable to just go straight in recovery from reboot. Or by holding low volume/power doing boot menu. Which means if something breaks, I have to SBF and go thru the whole shabang again. Unless you know another way.
Thank you again
U are right but when i was using bootstrap i noticed something if ur phone battery completely empty and the phone turns offf completely if u connect it to wall charger and open the phone it will goes directly to boot strap recovery try this and tell me

if you mess up the system you can restore using this method
http://www.motosunfire.com/system/ seems to work just fine for others who have tested it. you can then restore your system back to normal using bootstrap, assuming you make a backup.

pretty odd. it has worked for a few others who messed up the system. that's all it's really intended for. that's why i listed the link that the person above posted in the instructions. mine is for "soft bricks" or messed up systems. as for "hard bricks" it won't do anything because you've messed up more than the system. that's when you have no option but to flash the only 2.3.5 SBF available, which isn't even for the photon but the electrify.

Webtop is installed unless you deleted it. I had trouble with it once after a soft brick. Had to factory reset to get it to work again ):
If you don't have a media dock but you do have an HDMI cable you'll need to modify some system apps to make it work. I have info on MotoSunfire.com in the mods section.

Speaking from personal experience on two separate accounts of having to deal with the unauthorized software. If you wait for about a minute or so, the phone will shut off or you can pull the battery. Hold the volume down and home buttons together. While pressing and holding those two buttons together, press and hold the power button until the phone turns on and when you see the Samsung Galaxy Note II logo, release the power key. At this point, your phone should enter into downloading mode.
Use ODIN3 v3.07 to flash both of these files together. Also make sure that the Auto Reboot option is checked.
You'll need to download and open this file http://d-h.st/mKu in the PIT section of ODIN.
You'll also need to download and open this file http://d-h.st/Qd4 in the PDA section of ODIN.
Within seconds of flashing the two files at the same time, your phone will reboot and start up like normal.

Also, in order to flash a custom recovery, make sure you are both rooted AND unlocked. There is a very easy to follow guide in the development section by Adam Outler, who developed a pretty much automated system to do so.

Speaking from personal experience on two separate accounts of having to deal with the unauthorized software. If you wait for about a minute or so, the phone will shut off or you can pull the battery. Hold the volume down and home buttons together. While pressing and holding those two buttons together, press and hold the power button until the phone turns on and when you see the Samsung Galaxy Note II logo, release the power key. At this point, your phone should enter into downloading mode.
Use ODIN3 v3.07 to flash both of these files together. Also make sure that the Auto Reboot option is checked.
You'll need to download and open this file http://d-h.st/mKu in the PIT section of ODIN.
You'll also need to download and open this file http://d-h.st/Qd4 in the PDA section of ODIN.
Within seconds of flashing the two files at the same time, your phone will reboot and start up like normal.

Hey buddy, glad you were able to help him out. Wanted to give you a little advice. It's usually considered bad form to just link the download. Most devs prefer you to link their thread, you know so the person can click Thanks or donate if they feel inclined to. I'm not sure if that's how Adam is, but wanted to point it out to you.

Best bet is to just start at step one of the unlock process

Good point, I honestly didn't think much of it. However, out of respect for these awesome developers I will only provide links from this point on to their threads.
Great thread title by the way....

OK, followed Adam's instructions. I'm sure phone is rooted and unlocked.
Now, holding down 'Volum - and Home, then holding down Start' does not work.
I've tried it over and over again.
Any help appreciated.
