Hi,
A while back, I rooted my Yoga 10 to mess with the bluetooth keyboard mapping. So I edited hid-keyboard.kcm.
Now, the Android 4.4.2 update won't complete because the file contents of this file don't match what the updater is expecting.
Could one of you kind souls post the contents of /system/usr/keychars/hid-keyboard.kcm from an un-messed-with tablet?
Alternatively, if you could tell me how to make the update process not care about the incorrect file, that would be cool too.
Thanks.

Hey guys, would greatly appreciate the help with installing swype.
My first concern is what i've been seeing with users being locked out of their phone due to incorrect passwords after installing swype. Does anyone have the cab for a version of swype that DEFinitely does not do this?
And onto my biggest problem:
When i copy the cab onto my external memory and run the "_SETUP" file on my STOCK FILE EXPLORER it just opens the file as if it was a link on a website.
Do i need to download a new file explorer? or can i just use the one that came with the phone.
I cant seem to find a Do it yourself tutorial anywhere online please help!!
I have a hd2 from hong kong.
basically, stay away from swype 3.9 from the tmous. it checks your model and if it isn't a tmous it messes with the password.
as to the _setup issue, it sounds like you have unpacked the .cab
the pc will see a cab and think it is a type of zip, with (usually) 4 files inside, and try to unpack it if you double click it. instead, you should move the whole filename.cab as a single file to the phone and run it from there.
hey samsamuel. thanks for your help
i'm at work right now but will try this when i'm home. just a qick question, do you have any suggestions as to which version of swype i should downlioad?
i know there are many versions out there and am curious as to what a veteran like yourself chose,
many thanks
i use v2.i'll post it when i get home.
Hi Everyone!
I'm posting this here since I don't have posting privileges in the development area.
I have converted my Korean Galaxy Tab 10.1 as explained in the development section in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1360588&page=5
to a 7510.
Everything worked fine.
Just one tiny problem I am experiencing:
My Wifi reception has greatly decreased after the conversion.
I noticed this imediately after the conversion but hoped it would "go away" once I had rooted the Tab an installed a modded ROM.
Unfortunately this was not the case.
Does anyone of you other "converters" have any experience with this problem or am I the only one?
best regards an looking forward to your answers

Happy new year to everyone!
Well, since noone seems to have my problem I looked into the files myself.
The wifi drivers and their configuration files are located in /etc/wifi of the system image.
I flashed the korean shw-m380w original version and did a backup using CWM. I then did the same with the original gt-p7510 version.
When I compared the filesizes I noticed differences and the content of the configuration files were different as well.
So I just replaced the contents of the european wifi folder with the contents of the korean one. I had to use a linux shell, since the file permissions need to be saved.
I copied the newly created system tar file into the CWM backup directory of the european version, adapted the the md5 hash in the same directory for the new system tar file and went into CWM and did a restore.
Worked like charm. I'm back to my old, much better, wifi reception performance.
I don't know if this is the fastest an easiest method but it worked....
best regards

i have same problem with you. can you please explain to me step by step how to fix the wifi like you did?
Hi Everyone!
I have done some more experimenting.
Since I wanted to install different Android Versions and different Kernels and the fact that the Kernel Drivers are always compiled to work with only one particualer Kernel, I needed to find a way to improve Wifi reception without having the korean drivers.
I acomplished this by just pasting the config file nvram_net.txt from the korean Android into the directory /system/etc/wifi.
I renamed the original file to nvram_net.txt.orig and pasted, Afterwards I adjusted the permissions to be the same as the ones of the original file and rebooted.
This has worked with every Android Version I installed so far.
I have attached a Screenshot of the directory and the nvram_net.txt file of the korean tab.
I hope I can help somone with this.
To me it seems that the korean tab has just a slightly different Wifi Hardware than the P7510.
best regards

Hi guys im a noob to the forums and to rom customisation in general so im hoping someone can help me.
I have a generic MX dual core, and have been supplied a flash firmware and image from the supplier. This image is basic and does not contain all of the repos that i want, nor the apps that I require.
The image supplied is a zipfile and contains:
factory_update_param.aml
hd18d_mx4.zip
recovery.img
I am able to successfully restore my box with this image (so I know that the image is working fine).
Within the hd18d_mx4.zip there is:
Directotories: data, META-INF, recovery, system
files: boot.img, bootloaded.img, logo.img
I can see the all the system APK files within the system/app folder. The problem is when i try to add another APK file into this directory within the archive (in this case videomix.apk), I am not able to restore the image to the MX device.
Can anyone help me with a noobies guide to do this. I have read that the apk file has to be signed, and the zip file has to be signed also?? But im not quite sure what this means, nor how I go about doing it.
Any help or tutorials will be much appreciate. I have downloaded the APK-multi-tool but dont have a clue what I need to do
Look forward to your replies.
P.S. Im using a windows 64 bit machine and not Linux (if that makes any difference).
I'm facing the same thing, did you end up having luck with this?
If not is there anyone that can assist?
Hi I'm new to android modding and I would like some help figuring out how to setup android kitchen for this tablet.
I can't seem to figure out how to setup up the file in "edify_defs" folder.
I have a text file saved that might help. I would love any help!! Thank you for taking the time to read this!!
P.S the file should be attached to this post if it's not I can get a copy to you somehow.
If you own an Azpen A729 with Bluetooth, please Contact me or post here, I can provide detailed instructions on how you can help me. Thanks.
I've made a super mistake and accidentally deleted the build.prop file on an Azpen A729.
I was about to make a backup copy of it, but I deleted it instead.
I have no idea what will happen if I restart the tablet, and even less idea on how to recreate it.
help..
OK, so I ran 'getprop' on Terminal Emulator and managed to get all the information needed. Is there a basic template for Android 4.4.2? I found a basic one from 2.3.4. But I think it's missing a lot. The original one was pretty long.
Help...
The tablet did a reboot and now it's stuck at the start up logo. I'll contact customer service, Thanks everyone. Thread can be closed now.
BACKUP YOUR BUILD.PROP FILE RIGHT NOW!! JUST DO IT.
