[Q] Application Menu Re-Arranges - Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro

Hi All. I uninstalled some of SE bloatware and now whenever I restart my phone, I have some "Application Windows" with 2-3 application and rest of that window is empty. Even if I manually move icons from one window to another to make that window full, after restart, again icon rearranges and some of window is partially filled.
How to get rid of this problem. I own a SE Neo V and used Titanium Backup to uninstall the bloatware.

[SOLVED] Keyboard gone after rooting :(

Ok, as the rooting thread is getting overwhelmed with users not being able to find their correct deviceID, not being able to put java in their %path% or just having problems due to a 64bit version of java or whatever else could go wrong
All other valid questions are getting snowed in their so I thought i might be better to get a new thread to make sure it will get answered
After having my x10 succesfully rooted I no longer have my keyboard on any field, I also tried with long pressing the menu button (which normally would show or hide the keyboard) but with no success . Anybody have a clue how I can get my keyboard back again?
I did enable the HTC_IME btw in the language settings.
I had the same problem, just installed older version, v25 i think, and it works..
Hmmmm for some weird reason it just appeared lol.... I had opened up google search but didn't close as I wasn't getting the keyboard but just had put the phone down for a while as I needed to do some other stuff. When I got back the phone was showing the HTC keyboard and it now opens very quickly every time I go into a field or it at least responds on my long pressing the menu button while I'm in a field
Just install the HTC-IME again

in case it wasn't installed correctly you can also find it in your step4 apps folder from the root package, it's called com.htc.clicker.apk. Copy it to your SD and mount the sd back on the phone and install it from there.
Also make sure HTC_IME is selected in your country settings and text.
Thank you guys, found it in google and installed it. Keyboard is fine.

Apps dissappeared

I have a Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini.
With a custom rom MiniCM7.
I have that rom for quite some time and liked it a lot.
Although today my apps that I installed are all gone.
Also the market place.
I tried to reinstall the market place but it doesnt appears.
When I look at my app list I see the app "com.android.vending" what is the market place if I am right.
Although I can't unstall it or open it (it also doesnt display the market icon).
How can I unstall or reinstall the market.
Please help, my phone is nothing without apps
Thanks for advance!
When I reboot my phone in recovery.
I can go to "backup and restore".
Then I click on "Advance Restore".
Then I press on the date when I installed my custom rom.
I have the following options:
Restore boot
Restore system
Restore data
Restore cache
Restore sd-ext
Will one of those restores help to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance.

Is it possible that you switched SD card? Maybe all the apps were moved there automatically by Cyanogen?
Thanks for response both!

Well how will I be able to get root explorer without the market on my mobile?
I downloaded the market .apk file.
When I open it my phone is going to reboot (happens at the moment he tries to install it).
Also for the root explorer you need to pay, is there also some free one?
Or is it also able to do it from my PC (while my mobile is connected with USB)?

I haven't switched from SD card since I using the custom rom.
When I look at the application list and search for "com.android.vending" i see it with a dark gray android icon (not the market icon).
Within that icon also at the bottom right a smaller icon with standing "SD" on.
The application takes 204kB.
With a Cache of 4.99Mb that I cant clear.
I already tried to put my SD card out and in again.
Although my SD card seems to work fine, I can find all my pictures, music, etc on it.
EDIT:
I seem to still have version: MiniCM7-2.1.1
While there is already a version: MiniCM7-2.1.4
Would it solve the problem if I update the version by using the recovery?
So also again a "wipe data/factory reset".
Then "apply update from sdcard".
And after that Flash gapps.
Will this maybe solve the poblem?
Alright I solved it.
I updated the kernel from nAa-3 to nAa-6.
I also updated the ROM from CM7-2.1.1 to CM7-2.1.4 into recovery (so also "wipe data/factory reset").
And then it all was solved.
I want to thank you two guys for your time, and yes I pressed the thanks button at both of u
Greetings,
Jan2426
I had exactly the same problem, apparently CM moved all my apps to SD with me asking. It does so automatically.. See my post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1361073
I just can find anything that will work for me, tried everything, but it appears that GingerDX 12 is the most stable and fastest for me.
With all due respect to the developers, sometimes it seems that with every new release about the same amount of bugs are introduced as fixed..
Glad you got eyerything running...
Anyways Here's the direct link for root explorer and its free :

[Q] SE with walkman- removing default dialer

1. Is is possible to remove stock dialer and install any other? I saw that immediately I froze dialer.apk with Titanium got force stop.
I install TouchPro Dialer and associate dialer, and contacts with them. But when I make call I still get stock dialer screen with options in 4 angles on the edge of screen. Can I remove it?

Go with root explorer to /system/app and find dialer.apk and change extension to something like .bak

No, you can do that. If you do that you get FC all the time.

Yes you can remove dialer
For that get SystemAppRemover open it and go in System Apps tab in the bottom
Then find phonebook.apk and click on it then click "Other" Then click "Backup"
Then come back and and again click phonebook.apk and click "Yes" to uninstall it.
Here you go ! you have rmeoved default dialer completely and also has made its backup
Now use any other dialer instead of it and if it won't work then open system app remover click "Restore Apps" from the middle button
And then find phonebook.apk and get back your stock dialer
You can find these backups of apk in systemapp folder on your SD Card
Note : Try at your own risk,I do not advice to remove Stock dialer just i can advice to use optional dialer without removing stock one
Enjoy...

All thing you say I can make with Titanium Backup. But when you remove all three apk files, you got force close, and all you can get is to reflash mobile phone. It should work in theory, but it doesnot work...

Man you gotta try it first !
I haven't wrote any theory... I tried it first on my XMP before posting you the solution so that you can get your work done
I had used Contapps dialer as optional dialer after removing my phonebook.apk
And i was able to make calls and also stock dialer was removed and thats what we wanted to do
Try it ... cause i am telling you after experimenting it on my Handset... ok..
Here is link for Contapps,And its free !

You can edit default dialer images from phonebook.apk -res folder and then edit images from drawable-land-mdpi and drawable-mdpi and edit layout-land and layout-mdpi,xml folder to edit conguration files ....

[Script] XperiaHomeManager.sh for SONY ICS ROMs

​
XperiaHomeManager.sh by Adrian DC : http://arcsgatebyadriandc.comze.com/ics_xperiahomemanager.html
Useful with : [Application] HomeCustomizer for SONY ICS ROMs
The script will allow you to manage the Xperia Home Datas :
Backup, Restore, Clear, Fix problems such as 5x4 Apptray and remaining desktops.
As always, SManager (ScriptManager) is needed in order to run the script.
Unlike Titanium Backup, I got the script to restore the Home screen properly, even the Widgets !
If you loose the Home Datas after a reboot, please contact me directly,
I know how to fix it but I'll need specific infos on your files. Don't worry, I'll help you.
Bye !

Thing is, I hope it'll work for everyone because the Home identifier might be different for some...
Therefore, I'd like people to confirm it's working, and if not, please give me all infos
you can get (owner, permissions) on the "/data/data/com.sonyericsson.home" folder.
Bye !
So I'm a bit confused with the description... Does it allow the modification of the stock launcher or it's a tool to fix errors and/or create backups?
As described, the purpose of this script simply is to backup, restore, clean and fix the Home Datas.
To mod the Home, see HomeCustomizer.

Hi,
Try this:
1. Uninstall Themer.
2. Delete the /sdcard/MyColorScreen/ folder (removing the Exported folder within it if you saved any themes).
3. Reinstall Themer.
Also make sure that your device is running on stock DPI/resolution/display settings.

If you're running a custom ROM, chances are that you might have edited certain settings. These include hiding the soft keys, editing the DPI settings or even settings your own system-wide icon pack. Keeping your phone as standard as possible means that Themer will work to its full potential.

Thanks friend support, I found the solution thanks to the comments on your previous post was due to the icon pack was changed and for that reason I did not work properly on my phone themer.
Thank you very much for the help. :victory: :victory:
