(REQUEST)(AOSP)(KERNEL FEATURE) Proximity wake up screen - One (M7) General

Hi to all of you!
I don't know if this is even possible but i'am looking for a feature that can wake screen on using proximity sensor. I'm using HTC original cover and i'd like my screen to wake up when i open it.
I've tried a lot of apps, but the don't fit my use: they are not reliable. I mean the sometimes don't work, need a reboot or to open the app again.
Since there is stuff like L2W S2W, i was asking myself if this was even possible to add as an optionnal funcion.
I'd be happy to be a beta tester is sombody wanted to try this!
here's my conf:
Android 4.3
Radio: 4a.20
Carbon Nightly.
If you need anything else, i'd be on the starting block to give you further informations you can need.
Sorry for my english mistakes, not my native langage

Easy way of changing input method

Hi! I also posted this in the Wiz thread, but all you app makers might not check all threads so I post it here too if it is ok.
I have been searching for an app to easily change input method.
While driving I have my 9100 set in portrait and when receiving a message I would like to swap input method from block rec. to phonepad easily. The tiny arrow is very difficult to hit while sitting in the car.
Anyone know an app or can figure out a way to solve this?
It's a very old app, but have a look at this one I wrote. It needs updating to be more usable, but should do what you ask.

Thanks vijay, I will try it out!
It works perfect, thanks vijay. I use it in combination with mortbuttons. I am very happy now, the only thing I miss now is to have the wifi on/off in the system tray.
Still waiting for the official qtek aku 2 rom update.

What u want in Niki Project Rom ?

Hi All...!
In this times i has received many support from user niki forum.
Thanks so much guys.
Now i'm cooking ours Rom niki device,and what u want in Niki project Rom please post here.I will look in it and select which the best for us.
Any ideas just post in this thread
U're welcome guys
first to post here...well I guess the best way to start is to thank you for your work!
second..I think that all niki's users would love to find a way to improve battery life...right now it really drains out quickly..and perhaps there is something that can be done to reduce the consumption of energy.
plus i would love to see wifi connectivity on my screen..
ciao from Italy
I guess there will be many nice things to include (which dont come to my mind right now.. )
The only thing i'd say at the moment is that it would be awesome to include PointUI (www.pointUI.com) in some way... I know it's in very early stage and still has some bugs but it simply looks astonishing!
just my 2 cents...
i would like long press end key to power an .exe. such as slide2unlock..
1st I want to appreciate for you taking the time to try to make a good device even better.
Here it goes:
A finger friendly, always accessible task manager/task switcher (like the one of AE Button Plus, also the button-customization possibilities are nearly endless, which enable ducamie to do what he wants)
hangup-on-slider-close tool which is available in the forum. maybe it needs some modding since I prefer not to lock the phone or anything else but just to hang-up if I accepted the call via slider-open.
LCMinutes (also available here)
the HTC Apps with all proper working customization tools
since we own the niki, we all love eye candy stuff. So if something looks awesome and don't impact on performance too much, consider it.
some kind of working card export thing
system tweaks that make the niki a bit faster. consider to spent more ram to get more speed (some cache values and such things)
how about google maps
not to mention that working gps would be really great
get rid of those MS Live Apps
Well... this list is quite long I guess. Consider this a cheeky wishlist .
Cheers,
jekk
Black Berry Connect 4.0.0.92 Included!!

Personally I would like:

- to be able to customise the Keypad quick tasks (I have changed New Note to launch Opera Mini so it is possible)
- A decent close all running programs function, ideally to be able to invoke the HTC xbutton task manager 'drop down' using a button.
Really appreciate your efforts Tom.

the funny thing about this is that if it didnt exist at all like in the excalibur there would be ALOT of users screaming to have this functionality . After getting used to the T9 function I really dont mind it.
having said that a 4 sided cube that dont resemble the iphone would be great. and then the obvious is a big storage rom without the ext-rom.
Why do you guys want that third party soft like point ui or similar will be installed?
If a new version is released u have to install the new pointui in userspace.
Then u have lost double space.
I would prefer to remove all apps that can be installed by yourself.
Even Live Mobile or HTC Apps.
Then everybody can install what he needs and save space.
Also u can remove soft if there is something newer if it's not in the ROM.
If it's in ROM it's lost space and u have to flash a new ROM erverytime a app
is released in a new version if u need more space.
And that means to install everthing u need again and again.
Pls do a stable and good Rom with only the needed things,
for additional apps in newest version we have threads like the HTC Apps Thread.
Is it possible to have it contain more than 1 language keyboards/text input? I know have an English version, and it would be usefull for me to be able to use xt9 in Dutch.

TOTALLY AGREE!!
And I would like that you put in a softkey reg that fills up my bankaccount each time I press it.
Also a x-ray hack to the camera, I dont think I need to explain why
j/k
sorry 4 spam Tom, just had to
I came up this morning with one more things that i would love to have in my phone:
the possibility to use two dictionaries at the same time (primary and secondary). i.e. :If you write a word in T9 that it is not recognize by the first dictionary T9 tries to see possible matches with the second one..
ciao
thanks for cooking the Niki Project ROM!
these are the things that I want to be included in the ROM (if possible)
- WIFI & GPS Workaround
- Disable XT9
- Be able to map keypad buttons (IE button as "OK/Close" (16 keys))
- FM receiver
- Removable Storage workaround (WM5 Storage/Card Export)
good luck on the project!

Question for the X2 owners.

Does you X2 do this?
I just got my X2 and I have 2 bugs that I can't figure out.
(1) If I turn on WIFI the phone stalls/hangs. If I remove battery and restart then it starts up fine and wifi is now running. Turn off WIFI and no problems. Turn it back on, same thing happens!
(2) I just cant seem to install TomTom, it installed and worked fine on my X1 and is compatible with Windows 6.5.
Just one of the many bugs plaguing the X2.
The wifi crashing has happened to me before, the only method that worked was re-installing the OS via SEUS. Phone seems to run much better after that.
And hope for the march update to come along soon.
Re-installing the OS eh? Hmmm... I just might have to do this.
I did a full factory reset, but I guess it is not as good then.
I finally got TomTom installed, this time I ran the CAB and started doing other stuff on the phone (as it takes so long to install) A few minutes later it said it was installed. WTF?
But of course, the software cant find the GPS, I think I saw a fix for that somewhere.
And I also have the question to X2 owners:
For sure X1 and previous SE devices like P990, P1
have a strange cap/limitation regarding
PICTURE size.
So when picture has a lot of detail and a lot of light in it
and the fiinal size is around 1,5 MB
the phone freezes after taking such a photo
without saving it.
I've had specific landscapes which were always causing that!
Is that the same on X2?
On X1 it's a very rare thing, but definitely present.

1) This problem was solved by re-flash with SEUS. Yes, I flashed the same version that I had already in X2. Both same versions but newer is much better. I thing that SE quiet updated a few files but keep the name.
2) X2 using different GPS port than X1. This why TT can´t find GPS. You need to instal Franson GPSGate, this port emulator can emulate right port, whitch TT can see. At least, TT is the only navi software that have this problem. iGo works fluently, the same as Garmin.
PS: Sorry for my poor english.
also remember to install the small patch that SEUS released a few weeks ago.. it fixes a few bugs.
Ok friends.
Got my X2 finally!!!!
So before any eventual upgrade, my questions.
Many things actually surprised me....
So:
Where is my language??
I have a polish device but no clue where are my polish letters?
Where is WM keyboard or handwriting?
Or it has ONLY SE keyboard installed??
Where is Illumination setting?
Where is the option to display battery and next appointment when pressing clock on top bar?
Where is the option to power the device up with any key?
Where is the option to turn on/off the proximity sensor??
How can I set sending program with X icon to backround?!
I just couldn't find it anywhere!!
Also it looks like less responsive than X1.
Aha and one more:
My firmware is R1AA097
R5A
GENERIC_PL
It's the latest right??
I will be very grateful for answers.
I'm kind of confused a bit.
"Where is the option to display battery and next appointment when pressing clock on top bar?"
This is an issue with Windows Mobile 6.5. AFAIK all Windows Mobile 6.5 ROMs have this issue.
And the X2 has no choice but to me less responsive. The touch screen sensitizer is under the plastic on the front of the device where as on the X1 it was laid directly on the screen.

I've had the x2 for 2 months now, got it from the U.S i put it away because it was annoying me (to many bugs) now i'm using an HTC HD2 LEO I'M not going to use it again unless se realeases new firmware for it, other than that i'ts a very good device. some answers to your questions
(A) changing the language on the keyboard start/settings/ personal/ keyboard/languages/ the list drops down there are 23 languages supported even greek !
(b) no prximity sensor
(C) no option to option to power the device up with any key
(D) Illumination setting start/settings/personal/sounds and notifications/ it's all there personalize anything you want
(E) no sending program with X icon to backround
I hope i helped you in some way, I think that there are limited settings in general in wm 6.5 because my HTC HD2 has also limited settings but i'm very satisfied with my hd2 because i's very stable no crashes or hang ups.
@mathiosn
Thanks!
Actually X2 has proximity sensor,
but it works only in TileWave.
Regarding languages:
Yes of course there's a huge list of languages.
But apparently choosing my Polish
looks like English!!
No Polish letters at all!!
And that's a problem.

thanks for the reply, i used the x2 for a week, i did not use tilewave very much to try the proximity sensor.
as for the languages in the keyboard layout if you press the little ''world'' icon it shows you the lanuage that you have chosen have you tried that?

Its not true. Proximity sensor is working very good! Primarily in Dialer (when I´m calling and move the phone close to my head, proximity sensor turn display off).
So its working...

GREAT NEWS !!! - touchscreen fully fixed by OliWe

HI, i want to inform you that my friend OliWe fixed:
.) FIXED: touchscreen calibration (don't forget to remove the old ts_calibrate file from sdcard.
.) FIXED: touchscreen wrong pointer input (2-3cm jumps)
the hole touch screen problem.
.) ADDED: LONG PRESS of hardware key
now you can (ex) use long press of red button and then you can switch off the phone - this is woring also)
for installation:
===========
please download the latest kernel htc-msm-linux @ 20100819_200730 or newer.
latest kernle downloading on: http://glemsom.users.anapnea.net/android2/htc-msm-linux
Install new kernel:
1.) download kernel + extract the .tar.bz2.
then you'll find a module....tar.gz + zImage...
the zImage.... you must rename to zImage and
both files you must copy tho your SDCard. direct to sdcard ("Storage Card").
ALL HONOR GOES TO OliWe
I can confirm this, just tried it out.
I can type just fine on the keyboard now as opposed to before when it was a nightmare!
Thanks, GREAT job!!
Just perfect
Two big problems killed in the same time! Really great job, Oliwe !!!
Thanks +1
seems to be working for me too. The whole typing experience is now like windows mobile - Great! Thanks!
exactly a great news, many thanks for the hard work...
its amazing
tested
Tested and it works =]
Keep up the good work devs. Sad about the battery and hope there is a fix for this but otherwise loving what you guys are doing and achieving.
Hey, its fixed. And it works. Thats really good news. Thank you very very much.
Hey Guys,
It's nice to see, that my patches are working for all of you
The last patch filters about 99% of all jumps. Small jumps (a few pixels) are still possible, but they are very rare and you won't even notice them.
Have fun playing with android
Thank you @camro for the intensive testing
Sorry, but I just test it with Android 2.1 on my Blackstone.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=621498&
And this is not working well, the touch calibration is completely out
What are your options on your startup.txt about touch calib' ?
EDIT: Yeah it is working ! I can check my notification with a shield xD
We have to
- delete the old ts_calibrate file from sdcard
AND
- remove the msmts_calib from the startup.txt (usually msmts_calib=0x395.0x3c9.0x79.0x77 on blackstone)
And I can switch off Android

It looks like you didn't calibrate your touchscreen on first boot. Delete the ts-calibration file from your sd-card and boot into android. It will ask you to calibrate the touchscreen (you have to click on 5 white boxes, you should use the stylus for this).
The calibration in startup.txt is no longer needed. You can delete it
Yes you right.
Sorry I don't see your post before.
Anyway thank you for this patch
wrong post.... sorry
Sorry does not work link.......Pleaseeee add download tanks
Try here - http://balsat.hopto.org/
Tanks very nice..
Is this fix also working for Android 2.2?
Yes I applied this fix to v1.3. Be advised that the TheBrilliantMistake has released a new version (v1.4) that includes this calibration fix plus a few other bits'n'pieces.
woohooo, that's great news, thank you so much for that guys!
Though I don't quite get which button to press to switch off the phone since the top HW btn summons the recent app screen...?
TREMENDO!!!!
works great for me! I have 2.2 froyo, and at last not need the stylus for use the phone! But the power off is not working, freezes while powering off. But i dont care...Im fine, my touchscreen works!!!
Thanks for you hard work!

Black screen and unusable during a call under LineageOS all aosp version

Hello, problem with rom aosp lineageos any version. Indeed when I receive or makes a call my screen becomes black and it is impossible for me to rekindle it and thus also impossible to have access to the virtual buttons and the physical buttons become innoperational. I can not hang up, not access the keyboard, any functions usable. With the rom stock I do not have this problems. Thanks for your help because I would really like to use an aosp. Sorry for my English

No solution ? A beginning of one?
I had the same problem and the app "proximity sensor reset/repair" solved it
I'm new on this forum and I'm not allowed to post outside links so change the *dot* to a '.'
play*dot*google*dot*com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobiledirection.proximitysensorreset
Thank you very much for that hint! I was close to give up after update and update of LOS without fixing the problem. Would have never thought that the proximity sensor is faulty.
Thanks again!
