You need to get the keyboard fix (look for Advance Config).

i currently have 3.1 and i cant find a setting to fix that

Look for the "keyboard layout" option.

Missing link for phone after ROM upgrade

Hi Folks,
I have just upgraded the ROM using ROMKitchen (3.17.03 ENG O2-Euro). Now, the phone icon does not appear in the main window, tough it works when I go to Start--Phone--. Can someone please tell me how I can get this phone link back on the main menu.
Thanks a lot,
Frank
Why donĀ“t press you the green "Phone" button? It starts the phone-application automaticly.
Or just edit the startmenu settings...
Start -> Settings -> Menus
select the phone application.

Solution to DISABLE the large start menu

Hi every one
After several trails of trying to disable the large start menu in roms that do not have this option in the Settings > personal or system, I found some how a slight solution.
1- You need any registry editor, some cooked roms include this application, but if you need one, you can get it from here
2- Open registry editor then go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\EnlargeMenu
Open the key ( Enable ) and change the Value data from (1) to (0).
OK then soft Reset.
Regards
Hashimi thank you for your help to disable the large start menu

Hi, sorry for my laziness
Ok, for other large menus, really I don't have any Idea, but still you may try this thing...
download the large start menu cab from here , install it , then go to settings , you will find it there , just open it and disable , then soft reset
Waiting for feed back because I removed the rom with the large menus
Regards
tnx
o yeah tnx hashimi

* key does not work like on Dash/S620

I used to be able to press the * (asterisk) key on my old dash/excalibur phone to toggle full screen in apps such as slingplayer.
But I have noticed that the * key on my new HTC Snap (s522) is not recognized by many apps. On my S522, the asterisk is a "alt+" function, but even if I press the ALT key first, then the "A" key (which has the * on it to), the app wont recognize it.
I also found that when playing doom4ce, when you try to exit by pressing the "Y" key to the Prompt "Exit", it also will not work
Can anyone give me any clues as to how to fix this - such as modifying some keymap file?
If so, what is the name of this keyboard file and where is it located?
Any tips on how to modify it would be greatly appreciated!

What rom are U running? If you are running 3vo custom rom, keymapping is built in just need to enable it (english UK, USA....etc) if you are not. Check the sticky (Rom Dev. Section) you will find a tutorial over there.
I hope that helps

Swype 1.54.28.7337 QVGA with LS fix

Proportionally scaled
http://www.multiupload.com/JLYJXGUV0O - multilanguage
http://www.multiupload.com/W3DN2G8UY6 - only english en/us
More info on my blog:
http://marurban.netii.net/?p=95
I tested it on my HTC Wildfire. If someone test, please write if it works.
Isn't this warez?
EDIT: Tested, works for a few seconds, then FCes. Would be great if it worked, as I don't think the official Swype supports QVGA. What is LS fix?
Tattoo has a QVGA resolution, I tested it on Wildfire in the official version does not work landscape mode.
LS = Landscape
If on (tattoo) the official version works in landscape mode please delete the topic.
Well, your version doesn't appear to work at all...
Where can I get the original version to test? From market?
sadly i tried it and it force closes
Maby this help:
1. Delete current ver
2. Reboot phone
3. Install SWYPE

I'm trying this right now. I also tried the version without LS fix (with PT fix) and that FC as well, so the problem isn't in the LS fix.
EDIT: No luck Would be great if someone got this going...!
Hi. I have a problem.
I installed swype, then I went to settins> regional settins & text> In text settins check SWYPE box, but when I need the keyboard always is showed the native one.
What is it wrong?

We all have the same problem: read the rest of the thread.
Install this ver. http://www.multiupload.com/HF7FGXI5HT if it will work i add ls fix.
This one just gives me wrong resolution error, doesn't even start.
I have the same problem with the resolution
Worked _____ on my U8100. Are you sure this isn't w___z? Is this time trialed? It's unbelievable. Landscape works great too.
Edit: This isn't the Tattoo so don't hold your breadth.

Changing default Android keyboard

Hello.
I have installed stock Gingerbread by tytung and didn't like the new keyboard. Desipe many ppl report it's better I find 2.2 stock keyboard more comfortable for me as it has bigger buttons(russian has more letters and they are easier to hit then).
I actually found an .apk but I didn't find the way I can install it. I tried using EasyInstall that is able to install apks from SD card but it didn't worked.
Help please+)
Bump.
No one knows how to replace the keyboard?
What do u mean with "didn't work". Do u get an error message or just nothing changed with the keyboard?
If just nothing changed do the following:
1.Go to the main android settings and there you should have a menu called "language & input" (just a guess cause I have only a german menu). There you have to select the new keyboard.
2. Then just open the message app and tap AND HOLD in the field where you would write the message. A popup will appear. Click on it and change the input method.
Then you should be ready to go.

I meant it's not installed. I choose it to install but at the end I get "Application wasn't installed". That's it.
Just to clarify I want to change Gingerbread stock keyboard with Froyo stock keyboard as I like its layout.
Putting .apk with Froyo keyboard in /system/app didn't work at all - Android OS simply doesn't recognize it. I guess because of exect the same system name - Android keyboard.
