[R] script or app to update stock app - Galaxy S I9000 General

dunno if it the right section or if i'm searching for the Holy Grail but we know that is hard or impossible to update some stock apps, like swype etc.
Somebody can manage to create an app that check if exist an update and with a simple click update it?
we know jpo got swype 2.1 and jpa 2.6. Beta is 2.10 so i guess for jpo there are so many improvements.
Sry for bad english and if it's the wrong section to ask for this.
Regards Corgar

Swype

Well, the Beta is now closed for Evo with the following error "Swype is available for the Evo with the latest OTA update!"
Problem is.... like most of us, I'm rooted and not accepting the OTA update. Can someone post the APK please?

Good luck, the MODS have already went over this. Even though Swype is now in the OTA for the Evo the apk is still not to be posted on XDA. So basically its still against the rules. Rumor has it Google may be helpful.

Ahh didnt think it's still against the rules still. Argh
I understand since it was a closed beta but now that it is an open beta, shouldn't APKs be allowed to be posted? Since everyone can download it now (except for the poeple with rooted phones )
Anyone know what the current working Swype version is?
It is 2.15

XDA actually received a c&d from swype, so until it's fully released, the apk's can't be posted. It's only ok if it's a part of a rom.

In was immediately part of the beta when it opened...
It installed swype installer, then the new swype. New swype was sweet.. But it had no dictionary. Nothing swyped. Went back to my old version.

Download a rom with the new ota. Pic the apk from the rom put it on your sd card, use a file manager to find it and install it.

+1 to that... Or just flash newest unrevokedforever.zip , ruu back to 3.29 accept OTA and install custom recovery from Amon-Ra that works with hboot 2.10 and have everything completely updated with root and nand unlocked...
That's what I did.

Why not just update to the newest "OTA" through one of the roms that are already rooted? This will include the new yet very old version of swype that the OTA has.

Hopefully they find a workaround.
Odd.. I had zero problems installing it on CM 6.1. In fact I could install _both_ the OTA release (grabbed a custom zip) _and_ the beta apk... the the beta one acted a bit odd for me.
Guess I'm lucky, or the fact that most custom ROM are Sense based the beta installer must be mis-identifying said ROMs as the stock build and telling you to isntall the OTA (which wouldn't be a problem for an AOSP ROM lie CM or miui).
I was trying to not have to go through the hassle but I have it now thanks guys!

I did that and all I get are FCs every 5 minutes and the keyboard won't work
If you have root explorer check to be sure all old swype data is gone, reboot that reinstall the apk. This happened to me and it fixed the fc.

Please excuse my ignorance but can you tell me where exactly is the old data?
Edit: a simple search helped me find where to look. Running swype beautifully

ROMs reviews

Hello again, X8 users!
As there are many messages from people, willing me to start this thread, I''ll do it.
The fact is, that there are people, who don't have an opportunity to try the most interesting roms because of the traffic or time, and they want to know if it worth to be used or not.
So I have some reviews of the roms, showing it's main features and if something doesn't work properly
As my youtube channel specializes in latest custom ROMs from our dear developers and latest interesting apps, I'll post here these reviews, as many people don't know about them.and answering questions.I''ll try to take the most popular ones and post them.

Hi Disastery
Just saw your you tube video for 2.3.3 gingerbread sense. Is there any internet connectivity / data through mobile network yet??
Please include MiniCM6 1.0.0 by ponanovn. thanks
In your video* Floyo 0.20 how u moved ur app to sd? And how u install angrybirds? I use Floyo 0.20 too but cant move to sd and install angrybirds -.-"

You can try wiping cache and if this doesnt work try downloading the .apk file ( google it) install the apk and then uninstall the app and then it should work
Hi, can you tell me wich version of Doodle Jump you got, and also can you pm a link where you got it ? Thanks.
Do review Srom-2.2.1FloyoX8-V2 by zousoum96&stelios97 or ill call you cheating.
I post only the most interesting roms, srom rom is a copy of minicm, so I don't think that it's neccessary to do it.
I guess it would be better if UI was in english, and it ain't really a review, rather showcase. Would be better if you actualy talked about the rom rather then just sliding through menu and opening apps.
But I like the overall idea. Thanks for taking time a showing us custom roms

language question
Is it true that all 2.2 ROMs have got english language? I mean what languages have got 2.2 ROMs? English is OK, but I want my language in it. Is it possible?
(the other thing is a rumor that states all 2.3-s contains my language too, not just english. How is it possible?)
Thanks in advance.
I like 2.3.3 GingerBread Sense by racht ROM which look the best as I am a sense lover

I was misunderstood, I know that the Internet, the official site, is the latest rom for my mini, I was wondering if there is an official rom already loaded with all the updates, for example: Security Update for Peep, Now Legal, Update for HTC HD mini audio mute intermittent - Increased stability for SMS, not to make too many moves.

most up to date rom is for vodafone uk ver 1.41 but this doesnt have twitter fix
if you want one with fixes then you have to cook it yourself, its actually quite easy using oskitchen
or use a custom rom, maryone is good
yes... it is my friend... please google it first.. try to search for shipped roms htc...

[Q] Swype in Alien Rom "is not working"!

I would like to say Thanks to the Dev. Kenn for putting the Alien Rom together, most of the applications are working great, although; the Swype is not quite works well. I cannot delete the Swype app. neither because it read only.
In order to install the Swype beta, I need to disable the Swype that come in with the Alien Rom package.
Is anyone who knows how to go around that?
Please search....

You need an app like root explorer which will give you the permissions you need to delete it. Once you delete the swype.apk from system/app you can install the beta.

If you have a question related to something not working with a particular ROM, the question should be asked through the thread for the ROM. This way you are more likely to get support from the ROM's developer, or other people who have encountered the same issue with that ROM.
or just use the search...

[FIX] Android Revolution HD™ 7.0.x Hebrew Fix

Hello Everyone,
I saw people asking about Hebrew fix for the AWESOME Android Revolution HD Rom,
so I compiled a fix from a script This Guy made.
For the official thread of the ROM here's a link.
And for the the fix to flash AFTER you flash the room AND boot it.
Downloads:
Current Version:
ARHD 7.3: HebFix_Android_Revolution_HD_v7.3_Fonts.zip.
ARHD 9.0: HebFix_Android_Revolution_HD_v9.0_Fonts.zip.​
Older Versions:
ARHD 7.0.x: HebFix_Android_Revolution_HD_v7.0.x_Fonts.zip.
ARHD 6.3.x: HebFix_Android_Revolution_HD_v6.3.x_Fonts.zip.​Enjoy.
*Note:
For some reason the Hebrew locale option is not available in Settings>Language and Keyboard>Select Language, there is a way to change this with this app https://market.android.com/details?id=jp.co.c_lis.ccl.morelocale.
Just Select custom locale and write iw and then IL.
And if you like to thank the guy that made the script Donate him.
Thanks
I'll try it our thanks man!!

Hey,
I flashed your fix for 6.2 ARHD, and the fonts look nice, I think the ones on the other fix were actually nicer, but doesn't really matter.
Anyway, the pull to the right side works on the SMS and on Gmail, but not on all the widgets like people widget, Calender widget, but does work on others like Gtasks and Go SMS widgets.
Thanks for your hard work

If you have the fonts that you need you can just download the zip file and replace the fonts in the /system/fonts folder.
And don't forget to delete the other folders so it will not do the RTL fix (/system/framework and /system/lib).
And in anycase do a nanodroid backup first, who knows what could happen.
Hope this will help you

Hey Omriabu1
Did you change anything dramatic in the V.6.3.1 ?
I flashed the one for 6.2..0, over mike's 6.3.1 version and so far it works pretty well.
Question is do you think it would cause issues, an if so, would simply flashing your recent work just resolve it?
BTW thanks a lot for releasing updates and staying on top of things, your doing a great service

Actualy I don't think there is not much difference between the two versions because it's Basicly the same base, but I just wanted to be on the safe side and recompile the fix using the files from the new ROM.
Anyway if it's working for you now I don't think there will be any problem with it later on but you can flash on top of it the new version if you like.
And don't worry about the updates I'm a user myself so I just upload what I'm using

Installed on Virtuous Affinity 2.0.5 and confirm that the patch works and solves some issues, for instance in Waze roads numbers are finally shown in correct manner, i.e. like 123 instead of 321 as it was before. Thank you very much!
The only remaining problem after the patch was installed is Music application that doesn't show albums/songs/singers names in Hebrew fonts, but uses default locale fonts (Russian in my case). If somebody can help to solve this last problem it will be greatly appreciated.

Well the fix should work on every rom from the same android build on theory.
But I used the files from the ARHD Rom so I just wanted to be safe, because I don't know if the original file was change in other roms.
