I am currently using modacco's 2nd to latest rom.
Its not as fast as fresh 1.0. What rom do you guys think is the fastest?
Gumbo 1.5 with MoDaCo custom kernel 1.2
Gutted 1.5 with MCK 1.2
Any 1.6's or above?
Fastest: Any of the AOSP really
Best (IMO): AOSP 1.6 due to the speed & battery life

I think Nexus themed 1.6 is insanely fast. That's what I'm using. Actually, I am in the process of cooking up a rom based on that. So once I release it, that will be my vote...Humbly of course
I was jsut about to get AOSP 1.6 but no headphone jack supprot and i listen to music alot
WEll i decided on Donut 1.6, but i have an issue.
I really like it, but does anyone know how to put the old keyboard on it.
I like the white one instead of the new black one without autocorrect and all that good stuff.

Download the Clicker.apk & HTC_IME.apk from here.
Do the following commands:
Code:
adb remount
adb install -r Clicker.apk
adb install -r HTC_IME.apk
adb reboot
Go into Settings>Locale & Text, made sure "Touch Input" is checked
Long press a text box, selected Input Method & selected "Touch Input"

Omfg, thank you very much, works perfect
I'm running TTG 0.1.6 with Modaco custom kernal and it seems pretty snappy, don't have others to compare it to though so I'm not much help. Question though. I read a few posts about enabling compcache (?) on the new MCK, is that advised to make it even speedier? If so, I'm there! Is there a cheat sheet for how to do this?
Just a quick note. Clicker.apk is not necessary for the HTC IME. It's the calibration feature so if you want that then you need Clicker.apk. I did notice in my experiences with the HTC IME that the libt9.so library is needed. I always got force closes without it. Anyone else notice this?
The one I linked, cyanogen removed the dependencies on framework & lib files.
Hey gu1dry, I tried flashing AOSP 1.6 but I'm stuck at the ANDROID boot cycle. I RUU my phone back to 1.56, Nandbackup, Flashed quiet's AOSP 1.6 ROM and I'm stuck on the ANDROID boot screen. I've given it around 15 minutes and it's stuck in a cycle. Thanks in advance.

Yeah I am aware of which one you are talking about but I never got that to work without libt9.so. Oh well. Either way they work.

Only boot loops with 1.6 I ever got was when I forgot to wipe prior to flashing. Did you wipe first?

I have a few questions so instead of making a whole bunch of threads I just made one. If you could at least answer one question I would appreciate it.
All relate to 32B by the way.
I know that I had to download a new keyboard, but is there a better keyboard than the default one available for cyanogen, or do all keyboards work?
Is there a way to customize Cyanogen with themes?
Is there a Wifi tethering app?
Also is there a way to view the system files to your phone? I need to upgrade my recovery.
I do not know much about cyanogen his ROMs, but I had it once and I think it was WiFi tethering. and it is very easy to update the recovery through a terminal on the phone.
How do I do the terminal thing? I have the adb thing or whatever but I do not know how to use it.

If you don't like the stock android keyboard which is delivered with the cyanogen ROM, then you can download the HTC Touch Input keyboard.

Yes there is! There's tons of themes that are made to run on cyanogen on these forums!

There's a wifi tethering option inbuilt into cyanogen (under Settings > Wireless Controls > Internet Tethering)
Hope this answers most of your questions

Thanks for the help. But what I forgot to put, is that I get an error whenever I tilt my screen sideways to type. It says the application browser process com.android.browser has stopped unexpectedly, please try again. I have no idea what that is and it happens with whatever keypad I use to type.
just curious, tried to do some searching, but any way to remove the htc keyboard and get the stock android one?
I am currently running gumbo 1.5c and would like to try the stock one out because for some reason when texting in google voice the htc keyboard goes reallllly slow but while in defualt messaging app texting is fine.
but when i tried the stock keyboard on 2.01 by darch on GV it typed fine
soooo hopefully some way?
thanks
You should be able to go into Settings, Text Input and uncheck Touch Input.
Then in messaging app or really any text area hold it down and Edit Input.
Should work fine.

The default Android keyboard will/should always be there. The HTC keyboard, the keyboard that comes with the SenseUI can be removed or changed back to the "Android" keyboard.
To do this:
1. Open your messaging app
2. Click and hold where you type a message
3. A box should popup and saying, "Select Input method"
4. Choose the Android keyboard.
Hope that helps.

Interesting. It sounds like it could be a ROM problem, have you tried just reinstalling the file?
If not, here's the file -- download, unzip, and push the .apk via shell/command prompt back to your phone, and then reboot your phone.
Code:
1. adb push HTC_IME.apk /system/app/
2. adb shell reboot
3. exit

No, it should not always be there, you need a "LatinIme.apk", i think you could probably pull it out of a samsumg moment dump and use it on 1.5

HAHAH, what a coincidence, I just looked up a AOSP 1.5 ROM for the dream to see if the music apk would work, and it does, I just posted it in a new thread. So I've already got the LatinIme too. Thanks alot! I didn't know what apk I would have been looking for

I stand corrected.
I pushed the HTC keyboard back over, but I'm still having trouble getting the text input option to come up. I've done it before, so I don't think i'm doing anything stupid... Just hold in a text field until it comes up, right? I think I'm gonna try installing swype just to see if i can change text input then.

Here is the one from the moment dump, I tried installing the apk through package manager as well as simply pushing the file(s) to /system/app and neither worked. Let me know if you are able to make it work.
LatinIME.zip
1) not for use with sense
2) jit is in beta
3) These are the same binaries as the original JIT.zip floating around, this just properly sets up your build.prop instead of flashing an outdated ones that does not work will all roms.
If people would like to see a jit on/off switch app just let me know. Binaries were from the original eris jit update ivan gave me.
Stop using JIT.zip
http://www.multiupload.com/PIFU7GNSR5
Make backup first, doesn't work don't grip. At your own risk, no support provided.
Step 1: download the zip put in sdcard
please
Step 2: Run these commands
adb remount
adb shell "busybox sed -i 's/#dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:jit//g' /system/build.prop"
adb shell "busybox sed -i 's/dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:jit//g' /system/build.prop"
adb shell "echo dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:jit >> /system/build.prop"
Step 3: reboot to recovery, wipe dalvik cache, reflashe zip
To undo
Step 1:
adb shell "busybox grep -v int:jit /system/build.prop > /data/local/tmp/build.prop"
adb shell busybox cp /data/local/tmp/build.prop /system
Step 2: reboot to recovery wipe dalvik
totally awesome!! thanks jcase! I would love to see an app just to simplify the process

I knew that it was, just wasn't sure if anything was modified to work better with sense
so far, I have not been able to get JIT running stable on any of the roms that I've used
I'm on EE 2.0 with zanfurs OC patch @ 768mhz. I ran the sense remover from zifnab's site. Installed the Open GL patch (don't know if that mattered). Rebooted the phone, but the phone would lock up and reboot whenever sliding the phone to unlock. So the i flashed the Nexus One Screen Lock and rebooted. But when i went to unlock the phone that time, it didn't reboot and i pressed the home button and set Nexus Launcher as default. It seems to work fine now with no reboots. The highest i got in Linpack was 5.24 MFLOPS. Just don't know if i like the way the Nexus Launcher looks
Sense-able 3.1 with zanfur's v3 OC patch; same results, go to unlock the phone and it reboots.
/restore
+1 for the on/off app!!
EDIT: does not work with Ivans eris offical 1.0
Strangely lowered my MFLOPS from 2.8-3 to 1.7. Seems fishy. I will give it another attempt in when i have more time to experiment with it.
edit: I apparently suck.

on tainted vanilla 1.3.1 I just got 5.61 using this update

I can confirm the reboot.
Sense-able 3.1 (based on v3 leak) locks-up then reboots as soon as as I go to unlock phone. I tried it a few times to be sure it wasn't a fluke.
No JIT for me.
EDIT: I forgot to mention that I appreciate all the work you do despite this time it not working out for me.

Good morning all!
I've tried to search both on this forum and on google in general, but I'm having trouble finding a good answare to my question.
I recently changed from a SD ROM to Pongsters great NAND build. Had to use DFT, due to problems with the CWM. I'm now on Gingerbread - excellent!
Unfortunately I live in this weird country called Norway and we use an alphabet with three more letters (Æ, Ø and Å). Is there anyway I could get these three letters into my gingerbread keyboard, any language pack?
I found this link by searching, but I'm not sure how to install it. It seems like i need CWM.
My temporary solution was to download a 2.3 modification of the "Scandinavian keyboard". It works, but I'm loosing the famous gingerbread keyboard.
A dictionary would too, almost be overkill, awesome.
All help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi mate, maybe this package can help you:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=875202
the above is an add on keyboard, you will need to switch to it through keyboard selection.
Otherwise you can push the content of your CMW zip with adb (i suggest to pull the original files before).
adb remount
(optional, gets the original file from your phone) adb pull /system/app/LatinIME.apk "local Location" (ex. c: or /home/user/desktop)
adb push "replacement APK file location" /system/app/
(optional, gets the original file from your phone) adb pull /system/lib/libjni_latinime.so "HDD Location" (ex. c: or /home/user/desktop)
adb push "replacement lib file location" /system/lib/
then reboot and you will use the new KB.
Cheers.
The keyboard looks nice, but as far as I can see there are no Norwegian (NO) alternate.
Anyhow, the ADB-way seems interesting. Never tried, or even heard, about ADB before, but that's why we have tutorials and forums, right?
Downloading the SDK at this very moment.

Once you go ADB you won't back.
It's not that difficult, if you have some nerd past it will be very easy, otherwise it's plenty of tutorials, just follow them and you won't do it wrong.
Just a small hint,
with CWM always backup before.
w/out CWM always titanum backup.
Cheers.
Maybe a long shot, but have u tried SwiftKey? It supports the Norwegian language, u can set it to two language packages so it shows suggestions in both languages and no need to switch anymore.
I use it German/English and it is IMO just awesome. In particular after a few days using it it is predicting almost whole sentences by it's own.
Just a suggestion without messing with pushing commands ect. ;-)

Hey Everyone, Good News- I finally figured out how to get XFCE on webtop, and take off Awn Dock. (Er, disable it.) I realize that its been done before and that there is a guide, but the guide I found ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1054213 ) seems to be kind of outdated, and a little unclear. So this is an attempt to help people take their webtop to a whole new level.
To be clear, this is all the work of others, I take no credit, I urge you to hit the thanks button on all the threads I link to. These guys work their butts off. This is simply a guide making it dead simple to do something I know a lot of people want, but isnt exactly super clear. Lets begin.
Remember, guys, it helps if your Rom actually has Webtop. No CM7, no MIUI, No AOSP. Some of the Blur Roms also don't have webtop, but that can be solved by flashing it through these links:
For 2.3.4 Roms http://www.multiupload.com/H4UW3JTL22
For 2.3.5 Roms http://www.multiupload.com/R39VKRPJU5
For 2.3.6 Roms http://www.multiupload.com/3PD53CQRZA
(These are all Fruit Cakes, found here. Go give Sam some love, hit the Thanks button.)
Step 0
Do a Nandroid Backup. Please.
STEP 1
Ok, so first off, youre going to need to run webtop2sd, which can be found here. Run that, follow instructions, and try not to destroy your SD card. (Not that I did. Not that I destroyed 3 of them. No way.) That should take a bit, so be patient. Remember to say thanks to Sogarth, the Webtop Champion.
STEP 2
After that's over and done with, go ahead and start up Webtop, either through a Lapdock or Webtop Hack, it doesn't really matter. I will say that this is kinda pointless to do if you don't have a lapdock, but whatever!
After webtop is started, start the Webtop Configorator (Has the same icon as the Webtop2sd apk). Its going to pop up with some questions, click yes on both of them. Don't panic when it seems like the program freezes, its not frozen, it just takes an unsettlingly long time. Thatll finish up, then will present you with a menu, offering to install LXTerminal, and Synaptic Package Manager. Install both of them, by clicking install. When they finish, close the configorator. Now, this part is weird, open the configorator back up, and make sure that both programs are really installed, by clicking install again, just for good measure. For some reason, Synaptic would say it installed, then not really be installed. So yeah, up to you.
STEP 3
Alright, almost done, but then, not really. As of now, you have all the tools to get XFCE (Or whatever environment you choose, I recommend XFCE4). But right now, dependencies and packages are really really effed up, and its borderline impossible to install anything fun.
So to fix this, go to this thread here. This is a guide to for fixing apt-get dependencies. Show some love to Arvati, hit the thanks button, the guide is really simple, easy to do, and the installer is fully automatic. I recommend following his guide, then coming back here for the rest.
Helpful hint, to save you some thread searching, in the installer, type Yes on all the questions.
STEP 4
Home Stretch! At this point, you're ready to run Synaptic. In LXTerminal, type
Code:
gksu synaptic
We're going to install a couple things here. Well, actually a lot of things, but we're only going to click two things, and the rest will fetch themselves. In the search bar, type in xfce4 (or whatever desktop environment you like). It should be the top of the list, named "xfce4". Click the white box, and hit Mark for Installation. Click Yeah, you want to install the other stuff that comes with it.
After that, search for gedit. (For non linux familiar people, gedit is the linux equivalent of notepad. Its also got some color coding, so you could compare it to Notepad++.) Mark that for installation too, and you're set. Click apply at the top, and wait for that to install.
STEP 5
This final portion follows this guide. Go show your thanks to YellowGTO.
Once that finishes, go back into LXTerminal. Type in
Code:
cd /osh/usr/local/bin/
And after that, type
Code:
sudo gedit start-oshwt-2.sh
Gedit is going to open. Scroll down to where it has some lines that say
Code:
sfalv -i "awm-autostart"
sfalv -i "webtop-wallpaper"
These have to do with the current Window manager. We're not deleting them or removing them, just making them not start when Webtop does.
Put hashes (#) in front of them, so they now look like
Code:
#sfalv -i "awm-autostart"
#sfalv -i "webtop-wallpaper"
After that, add a line at the bottom of the chunk that says
Code:
sfalv -i "startxfce4"
Save and exit.
STEP 6
Go back into LXTerminal and type in
Code:
Startx
. This SHOULD finish it up by restarting webtop, but if it doesnt, pull the phone out and reboot it.
And you're done. This has essentially turned your phone and lapdock into an extremely handy netbook. You can install programs through Synaptic or apt-get. From here, you can play around. I recommend doing another Nandroid backup so that you don't accidentally restore to the one without your fancy new webtop.
Thanks a lot man.
Is it the same for lxde? I would like to try both on webtop.

Yes, im theory it should work, just type startlxde instead of startxfce. Post results on performance and usability, id like to know if theres anything that works better than xfce for this.

Ahh I have no idea, it should've been fixed in the dependency fix script. When do you encounter this error?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1397583
tzdata would give an error when trying to install most packages from synaptic (openoffice.org is one I'm pretty sure), and samba-common throws an error when trying to install it, if you are trying to install a package to access file shares for example. But you can just try to install samba-common itself and it still doesn't install correctly.
Gnome also works!
After many hours of trial and error while following many of the tutorials, I managed to make gnome work to my liking on my webtop. I can even change themes as you can see on the screen captures.
I followed this tutorial made by aaron.a
I renamed the default gtk-2.0 Webtop theme to gtk-2.0-bak which is located on /osh/usr/share/themes/webtop-theme
I then edited the start-oshwt-1.sh file as follows:
# start OSHWT 1 scripts
update-font.sh
sfalv -w "webdaemon -d -n"
gnome-settings-daemon
# sfalv -i "xscreensaver"
sfalv -i "aiw -d"
sfalv -i "docking_manager"
fcitx
I edited the start-oshwt-2.sh file as follows:
# start OSHWT 2 scripts
# sfalv -i "awn-autostart"
# sfalv -i "webtop-panel"
# sfalv -i "webtop-wallpaper"
sfalv -i "gnome-panel"
sfalv -i "evbridge"
sfalv -i "window_switcher"
sr-test avahi_start &
What's the difference between
sfalv -i "startxfce4"
and
sfalv -i "xfce4-session"
I've been using the latter, but the former makes more sense to me. Though I've not been into doing this for very long.

I have no idea, thats probably something with XFCE itself.

You're right! wrong thread for this kind of question, I just noticed differences. I'll let you know if I discover the difference.
STEP 6
Go back into LXTerminal and type in
Code:
Startx
. This SHOULD finish it up by restarting webtop, but if it doesnt, pull the phone out and reboot it.

This step didn't work until I typed in "startx" vs your line of "Startx".
Is it normal for webtop to be finicky? I experience sometimes that webtop loses the top panel or doesn't wake up properly or just become unstable. Does anyone else experience? I mean, it usually works but sometimes, like one in ten times, webtop is wonky and I have to restart my phone.

Yes, I it's normal.... Just like your desktop pc or laptop, sometimes we need to start fresh with a reboot.

Hey thanks for saying, I wasnt aware it was case sensitive. I guess thats why it was being finicky for me. Webtop as a whole is pretty awkward, Ive just been plugging jokersax's ICS into the lapdock and that works fine. But whatever works, you know?

How do you like jokersax's build with the lapdock? I've been holding out on it since I've bought the MM dock and the Lapdock.
Help.... I'm running DarkSide and the 2.3.6 Webtop. I can't run Webtop2sd 2.0.1 - thea pp throws a "process net.toreishi.webtop2sd has stopped unexpectedly" when I try to open it. Any ideas? I haven't been able to find anything!

Ive gotten that problem, but I dont remember how I fixed it...
I guess just try clearing your cache and dalvik, maybe fix permissions. I may have gone so far as to flash a fruitcake with webtop, but Im not certain. Id read all up on the webtop2sd thread.

Install busybox by JRummy16 from 'Market' Google Play, install busybox, leave default settings and try again
It seemed to work for me, I'm running NottachTrix 1.29b
