i flashed tmous stock rom with duttys 21896 build and everythings great. im trying to put swype back on because its awesome and cant seem to get it working. i have the zip with all the files but there seems to be no cab for installation?
do i just extract the files to the /windows directory to get it functioning? tried it but still not workin'.
sorry if this is a repost. couldnt find a previous thread
what do you mean "l have the zip" are you sure you aren't just opening the cab with winzip/winrar on the pc? cos if you do it will open like a zip.
search google for cab...
Yeah, Good luck with searching Google for a copy of Swype without encountering dodgy websites and requests for payment, not to mention the copy on XDA which has been reported to reset the PIN on installed devices so they aren't accessable
I'm sure some people here would be interested in the contents of your zip file for analysis though.
heres the one i use, and it isn't the one that can mess with the lock password.
thanks samsamuel. my windows os detected it as a zip but my leo did see it as a cab.
Yeah cheers Samsamuel. Installs and works perfectly (so far )
Regards.

Touch the up arrow to the right of the input icon (bottom middle of screen) and choose swype as the input method.

no... your windows os uses the same icon for zip files and cab files ;-)

well i read it some where in the forum
After flashing a Rom, all the .cab files are to be placed in a folder in the internal storage in order to get them installed automatically.
without having to install each and every cab file manually.
I guess there was script or something..
Couldnt find it now
can any help?
thanks

Look for the yamato_panel.txt thats in your windows directory, open it and delete all text thats in it save it, and restart your device and try landscape mode again, this will enable 2d accelaration in landscape mode.
btw:this was found by tsmasmolotof.
It works. Thank you very much!

Download resco explorer or Total commander, and edited it using any of these file managers and you will be able to edit the yamato_panel.txt
ive downloaded both and still cant change it ... do i need a custome rom? can you tell me step by step what i need to do please
ok, i tryed so many ways now and i cant change it ...
do i need to do that when im in recovery mode (the one for flashing rom)
or
do i need to open the file with an special program (not word or resco)???
thank you it works fine
@gmbhneo
make to your pc an empty txt file named it yamato_panel.txt and copy it with resco explorer in windows folder

First download yamato_panel.txt from Xda. then copy the file to sdcard. Execute Resco Explorer, go to your sdcard directory an select the file "move to" My device (Resco can do it, Windows mobile cant do it).

Solved, the file is located at the root "\" and not under the \Windows directory. However, I am wondering if this has any side-effects??
Great!, i deleted the line in it and now my acer in landscape is better than before
I would like to put bsb tweaks on my hd2. However, I do not know where to install it to? Many thanks
put the cab file anywhere on your phone and run it.
Hi put the cab file on you sd card .then install using file explorer

You'll probably do more CABS, so I suggest creating a CAB folder on the root of your SD card... Easier to keep track, then.

It's a winner, I keep a copy of my cabs on my laptop and another on my SD card for easy of use when flashing from ROM to ROM.
do I have to do anything else to the phone? like u would jailbreak an iphone? i unzipped the folder and put it on the storage card but when i select setup nothing happens :/

You don't unzip it. You run the .cab file as it is.
ok i am confused lol when i downloaded it from this forum it is in a zip file and actually doesnt have a.cab file in the zip file

Are you sure it isn't just a .cab? WinRAR opens them like they are zip files.
lol its ok i figured what i did wrong, thanks anyway. i shouldnt try and do these things late at night
ok I have got it installed now and i want to use it to rotate office but when i bring up the rotate menu the office apps are not listed?

Can you not add it in the options, by shaking the phone while in the office app?
this doesn't appear to work. I have the HTC HD2. I open the office app and when I shake it nothing happens. Should it?

Follow the instructions in BsBtweaks.
Thank you I have now managed to add them to the list, ticked them, did a soft reset but they are still not rotating. Its just not my night lol
Im sorry if this is the wrong section for this, I figured this would be the best spot.
The reason im posting this is because a lot of people were asking how to use the EVO keyboard (with arrows) on NON-Evo sense builds. First off, as far as I have tried, the build does have to be a sense build. I have tested this on just about every sense build for the HD2.
I've attached the renamed apk that ive been using. Hopefully it will work since I sent it straight from my phone. If you use it, skip #1.
1.) Rename the HTC_IME.apk to newHTC_IME.apk
2.)Go into the folder where the newHTC_IME.apk is (if you download it from your phone then it will be in the "download" folder) and using "Root Explorer" or another root file explorer long press the apk and select copy.
3.)Go to your system>>app folder and paste the newHTC_IME.apk. Since its not the same name as the original it will not ask you if you want to over ride the original. But it will still be there if you choose you do not want the EVO keyboard later on.
4.) You WILL have to reboot for the changes to take affect, if you do not you will not have a keyboard till you do reboot.
I hope I didnt make this complicated lol, and yes i know....some of you know how to do this. I did it for the ones who did not.
Works perfectly with desire sense mdeejay build. Thanks.

Same great result here... Thnx man...
Thank You

Im copying the newHTC_IME.apk to, "sd/android/AndroidApps/," then rebooting but nothing!
Ive tried clicking on newHTC_IME.apk in this folder it tries to install but then says, "application not installed".

the method you're doing won't work.. follow the OP's instruction on how to do it, or install droid explorer and then copy/paste the newHTC_IME.apk file to system/app folder.
BE VERY WARY ABOUT THIS!!!
I'm going to have to start from scratch as doing this has lost my keyboard, permanently.
I keep getting a "Sorry" message saying that "The application Touch Input has stopped unexpectedly" and my keyboard is unavailable.
This is after installing this new keyboard, as well as after restoring the original one. It's basically just screwed my keyboard so I'm going to have to rebuild my instance of Android from scratch.

You've got to copy it in sd/Android/root/system/app>
and reboot!
this should work for you.

mine doesnt even have app folder in my root folder can i just make a folder in the root and do it like that? and after i put it in the folder where do i go to select the evo keyboard sorry for acting like a noob lol
Yes thanks a lot but I was very afraid because I had to erase and save elsewhere the old file . I could not copy the new file in root system app as it was saying that i had not enough place in the rom.
Thanks for the apps . It work great !

My friends, i'm not able to write the file newHTC_IME.apk into /system/app/.
I've installed "Root Explorer" and I also cannot, it tells me that there's no space to copy the file... even i use mount r/w
i'v also tried to access superuser but i dont know how it works... superuser2.3.6 app screen shows me there's no apps, log shows me there's no log, and i don't know how can i give root privilegies to "root explorer"
thnx!
SOLVED: I was able doing the same, deleting HTC_IME.pak and copying newHTC_IME.pak. Thnx!!!
Hi motoman234,
Do you happen to have a copy of the cm6 themed keyboard used in shu8i's first batch of builds?

thanks for the app. Really enjoying the arrows
I have invited a couple of chefs to add this package to their ROMs if they are interested. I am surprised there is not more interest.
This is the package for AmazonMP3 that is working now. I extracted it using HTC ROM Image Editor from the new T-Mobile Leo 3.14.531.1 ROM for HD2.
The old AmazonMP3 cab that has been around since February never worked - you could search, browse, even sample songs, but it would not authenticate with Amazon servers. I flashed the new TMOUS ROM to my HD2 just to test this new version and it worked. The only requirement is to have an Amazon account, and "1-click purchase" turned on, but thats it!
I then extracted the package, and installed it on my Elegancia ROM, but was not sure exactly which folders to put some of the files - I had tried to manually copy files from a fully flashed ROM and put them in the same folders on my phone, but it failed to fully authenticate. So with this package, I just put all the files in a single folder on my SD card It works!
This is NOT the way I like to do things, even though it works correctly - It even keeps a download history. So,here is the full package, all set for adding into someones kitchen, or, better still, making a nice cab for the community.
Package attached.
Link to T-Mobile Official Update: http://dl.htc.com/ruudownload/t-mobi....aspx?pid=leo2
Here's a link to the leaked version of the ROM that Football posted about 3-4 weeks before the official one was released. Not sure if it has the same package as I did not have time to check. Providing the link in case you do not have a serial number that allows download of the official:
Sorry ALL - My zip file was pooched... Attaching a proper one now!!!!
Im going to sound like a noob and im sorry in advance but i downloaded your file and went to unzip it on my computer and there is nothing there at all. Maybe its something i am doing. I dont know. Next off is there any way you can just make this into a cab file like the old one was? I am very interested in this and flashed the t-mobile rom just because of this file.
This is only a empty zip file...
I would LOVE to, but...

If you read a bit closer, I state (perhaps not too clearly) that this is as much as I could accomplish. I COULD make a cab, but I do not know how to make one for a package of this type. (To install it all in the correct folders) In fact, I am still poking around the TMOUS 3.14 ROM for a provisioning file that shows what an installers steps would be... I put the package up with the hope that someone more familiar with that would either make a cab (preferably) or incorporate the package in their ROM (good, if I can use that ROM, LOL)
