Has anyone found a way to change the default docking app from nemo? I have tried removing it, replacing nemoplayer.apk with my custom apk..nothing works that i have found? Is there a system variable somewhere maybe that could be changed? If so, how where possibly might it be and also, is there a way to search all the files for a string of text (ie. nemoplayer)?

Not sure why you're calling nemo player a docking app, but I can assure you it's one of the first apps I rip out of all my ROMs, or it'll be constantly running as a background app.
In other words, it's safe to rip that [email protected] right out!
crap
Yeah, i hate that its on there but the problem is that when i hook my a100 into the dock i have mounted into my truck, nemo player automatically opens up. I want to try and get rid of nemo and have it open my own dock app, however there is no way to do this. I have been poking through files and narrowed it down to this file "/system/bin/dock_utility"...it is what is called on when it is plugged into the dock, however im no expert and i dont really know how to view/edit this file to change it to my needs. Anyone know?
Ahhh gotcha! That kind of dock lol
Just rip out the apk and odex and reboot.
?
not sure i follow...i have tried taking the apk off and when i hook it up nothing happens. When I replaced the apk with the apk i want to use and rename it to nemoplayer.apk in the system..it still doesnt do anything. What do you mean by rip and odex? Not sure what odex is..

You actually took another apk, renamed it to nemoplayer.apk and expected it to be your default dock launcher?!?
That statement says is all. Forget I mentioned anything please?
I don't want to be in any way responsible for you borking your tab.
ok..
thanks for the help...
I seriously doubt i will brick my tab by messing with the nemoplayer...

Yeah, doesn't sound like the other guy knows quite as much as he thinks
Anyway, did you find a solution yet? I am not quite sure yet how Android processes/binaries call each other. Maybe a class needs to be renamed inside the apk?
Thanks...

thanks KenKiller for the reply,
I have searched the free app market for such a software but could not find, do you know if it is available as a paid app?
ahhh I missss that auto-vibrate so much !!!!!
I loved it on my magic. no need to hold the phone on our ears until they pick up
i tried to search for it, but in the end found many more threads where people asked for this function to be removed from many other phones.
Guess it's hard to please the whole world.
Place the phone.apk from this thread onto your SD card and use APKInstaller to install it. It should overwrite your stock phone.apk and will provide you the feature set you desire.
However, I don't know if this has been attempted on a SGS before - so be ready to restore your stock ROM if it doesn't work...

Waiting for a brave soul to try this.
I'm pretty sure the Phone app that comes with SGS is quite unique. After installing launcherpro the default phone button wouldn't even work until I replaced it.

Thanks for your help, I will do it once i get my SGS
Is there any news about this issue ?
uhhhh, sounds fun, let me book mark this and try it when i have spare time to mess around with my phone
For some reason the setting for this is in Settings > Sound and Display, Vibrate for Incoming Calls which is by default unticked. I thought I saw another somewhere else, going to poke around a bit more.
Edit: Damn, can't find it. I swear I saw options for vibrating at the start and/or end and or during calls, maybe I'm getting confused with my Magic though?
I really miss that feature from my old phone. The nearest app I can find is this http://www.androlib.com/android.application.com-cn-cwd-callvibrate-BApt.aspx
I had asked this before but wasn't sure it could be done. Well now its been done for the EVO can someone please do this for the vibrant. This has become even more important to me now that vlingo is free.
Link to swype with voice for evo
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=752040
Can that not work on our phone as well, its the beta that determines what phone you have.... PM the guy who made the edits and ask. I would think it would work fine.
I have tried installing it directly as an apk and the install fails. I have also tried renaming and copying over the current skype and this has no effect, aka the keyboard for skype remains unchanged.
I also went as far as to try the original droid x file with the above two methods and had the same results.
Apparently there are some dependencies or other files involved.
Anyone have any ideas?
If I'm not mistaken you are supposed to flash via recovery. I spent like 3 minutes looking at that thread.
Thanks I missed that as was working with the origonal apk file posted. Trying the zip now
Keep us updated, that looks awesome
Ok ran and installed the zip file and no change. No errors but same as when I copied over the skype file manually. The skype keyboard is unchanged. In my case still the grey smoke colored version from eugene's vibrant4 build.
Anymore ideas? I would really love to get this working but do not know enough to reverse engineer what was done.

It would be nice if they shared what they did so we could try to reproduce it. I would love this mod combined with vlingo now that it's free, since Google's new stuff only works on 2.2.
I'll try to find time to download all the APKs from the various phones and see what's different. If you want to speed things up, send me links to all of them.
All I have is the APK file from the above posted link and I believe I have the original droid x apk for skype as well but it appears it is more then just the single skype file.
I have sent a pm to the creator in hopes he/she will share their secrets as to what has to be done to make this work.

Yeah, I thought we wern't supposed to share swype apks on here though, so I was wanting the original one from the droidx as well as the evo in addition to the one in the post you linked to. I can of course get the Vibrant one from my phone. Let me know if the other devs answer you and I'll try to help out.

Does the i9000 have it? Maybe we can borrow their version?
Well.. what do you know? That EVO one works! Instructions..
backup your existing swype, just in case.
adb pull /system/app/Swype.apk swype-backup.apk
Change your keyboard to a different one, I just switched to the Android keyboard.
adb push swype-evo-tts.apk /system/app/Swype.apk
Now change back to swype. Mic button is now there and it works!
bug/oddness: The pop-up that shows you suggestions is now yellow with light text, it's damn hard to read some of them.
This fixes the word choice window to not be yellow anymore. I used the stock graphics files from the Swype that came with our phones.
Metamorph required, market.
Couldn't make this work no matter what I tried. Your directions were very good but they just didnt seem to work. I sent you a PM let me know what else to try.

UPDATE
Got it all working now and while they keyboard is a little different all the voice functionality works perfectly. This coupled with vlingo makes for one awesome combination. Thanks to everyone for all your help.
Skype yellow fix locks up when trying to install and I cannot figure out where to copy the files manually it says to a skype directory but i dont see the directory in root explorer

Are you using vlingo for the voice button? I haven't tried to do that, it just brings up google's voice input app.

You have to put them in the swype.apk. did you load it in metamorph? It's not an update.zip that you flash in recovery.
The screen looks the same as googles so maybe it interfaces with it but yes I hit the mic from the keyboard and speak and it works. I know it is somehow interfaced to vlingo as if I turn on filtering so I cant swear in vlingo setup then send a nasty text it filters it out. If i turn off word filtering in vlingo it sends the bad words.

Ok I am clueless no idea how to make my own apk and not loaded metamorph. Any chance I could get you to prebuild it into a single apk for me?
If not then a link to the process or a step by step would be much appreciated.
I don't know if this is the right place to ask this but does anyone know a way to change the sound the keyboard sound for typing? I hate the vibrate so I turned it off but I also hate the sound it makes so I turned that off too. I want it to make a soft pop noise similar to the iPhone. I searched but couldn't find anything. Thanks in advance.

Running into the same 'problem' and found that the sounds used are in the /system/media/audio/ui folder. But I can't replace them ...
Should I get passed that as well then I'll let you know.

Do you have root access? If not then you need that first. You can get that with this little app...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833953&highlight=z4root
Then, I'd recommend using RootExplorer (free, on the Market) for pasting the new audio file.
Hope this helps
That worked, thanks for the tip!
So basically I had added a favorite to the sense tab and clicked on it while using free WiFi at McDonald's so the page it shows is the page where you accept the terms of service for the free WiFi. I have searched for it, but if I somehow did miss the answer I apologize in advance. I have tried removing the favorite from the tab & removing the favorite all together & then re-adding it and it still shows the wrong preview. I am guessing that there is a directory somewhere that I would be able to just delete the preview data. TIA for any help!!!
Bump I would love to know too.

That's a weird one. Did you try deleting it, then doing a soft reset, then adding it?
Have you looked in the Windows\Temporary Internet Files folder? Or maybe it's the Temp folder? See if the images for the shortcuts are cached in one of those folders. If so, you can just delete them and that should take care of it.
all the thumbnails are located in:
/Windows/Thumbnail
simply find the one you have and replace it with one you want or delete it. (the names are very long and make no sense, but in the end are simply .pngs.)

Ok so I found & deleted the 1 that was giving me problems, but now it won't generate the new preview! I have tried a soft reset with no results. Is there a way to force it to create the new one? Thank again!

scratches head...sorry mate. it worked for me previously. did you save the file somewhere else before deleting it? sorry it isn't working out the way you/i had hoped...
I upgraded to Oprea 10 I think it is beta and I don't have this problem anymore, it seems to update the thumbnails often.
Hi Guys
This is weird. My shiny new Note 3 is about three weeks old. It's working 99.9% perfectly except for a slight sound problem. The problem is that when it is connected to a charging dock it USED to play a tone. Now it just vibrates slightly (but still charges). I also noticed that my camera doesn't make a shutter sound when I take a photo. I wondered whether the two issues are related in some way?.
All other sounds seem to be working OK on the Note3 (so it's not a volume setting) and I have checked whether option for the dock 'making a sound' is switched on. Additionally, there doesn't appear to be an option in the camera settings to switch on/off the sound, so it can't be that.
OK none of this is a major problem, but it is a bit of a niggle!
I hate niggly things! .
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks
You made any changes recently?

Do you have these checked files in the screenshot?
Thank you. That looks like a useful screenshot - where do I go to check if the sound file is checked as in your screenshot? I guess thats your file manager isn't it? I'm using ES explorer and the phone isn't rooted. Do you happen to know which folder these sound files live? I did a file search and it couldn't find any of the files shown in your screenshot

I use Root Explorer, those files are in system>media>audio >ui.
However, as far as I know you can't access the system folder unless you're rooted, so I think it's unlikely that you've deleted them.

OK case closed - I hard reset the phone, reinstalled all the original apps and the missing sounds are back. Sorted! Bit of a drastic measure though
Still don't know WHY the sound disappeared from just the docking process and the camera shutter, but it least it's all fine now
Thanks for all your help and suggestions.
