It doesn't fit the screen.. Pls help!

I bet there's already the solution somewhere on the forum, but Ill try to make it simple for u..
Basically u need to mount the factoryfs.rfs image of the JMK5 fw, on linux u can use the mount command tool, if on windows MagicISO would be the way to go. Once its mounted you need to copy the file Swype.apk from /app and libSwypeCore.so from /lib . Once you have them on ur computer all you have to do is to copy them into the Gtab, Ill post you the procedure step by step
Code:
adb shell
mount -o remount,rw -t rfs /dev/block/stl9 /system
chmod 777 /system/app
chmod 777 /system/lib
cd /system/app
mv Swype.apk Swype.apk.old
cd /system/lib
mv libSwypeCore.so libSwypeCore.so.old
exit
then from ur computer navigate to the folder where u have the files Swype.apk and libSwypeCore.so, then
adb push Swype.apk /system/app/
adb push libSwypeCore.so /system/lib/
adb reboot
Once it reboots you'll have the old nice Swype keyboard in replacement of the new small one...
To make it even easier I am uploading the files needed for the fix right below..
Enjoy ..
Nice! After I flashed Roto jme and discovered the swype issue, I reflashed the stock t-mo tom, grabbed those files, then reflashed Roto jme. Then I pushed those files and had the big keyboard back. Then I saw Mr. Roto made a v3b with the big keyboard! I could have been outside smoking a good cigar waiting for the upgrade!
So go get the v3b upgrade and flash that, unless you are looking for an adventure.
P.S. Reboot a few times if you do the file switching to make the changes take effect.
Well, unless you don't mind reflashing your tab and might lose apps and configurations this will take you few minutes. However I'm glad he has made a pre fixed keyboard version of the JME, defo easy way for everyone.

I suggest you take down those links before you get moderated!
See here.

Segnale, you definitely want to remove those files from here. By the way the whole procedure can be done within the phone :
1. Download the files to your tab (before they are removed , ) using your browser
2. Use Androzip to unzip the files
3. Rename the original files of your tab with RootExplorer (just in case you want to reuse them)
4. Copy the downloaded unzipped files to their respective locations with RootExplorer
5. Reboot the system

Or just flash the latest "update" from Rotohammer as it fixes the issue.

But brings another one for us European users as his Swype only contains English & Spanish keyboards
Thanks a lot mate you saved my day.
found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1174160 here in the forum, but cant get it to work on my neo
after a little seaching i found an other script that seems to work on NEO maybe on ARC too
also install-recovery.sh isnt execute on my neo so i put the call into hw_config.sh and it works fine now
howto.
1. push dalvik2cache /system/bin/dalvik2cache
2. adb shell
3. chmod 755 /system/bin/dalvik2cache
4. echo "/system/bin/dalvik2cache" >> /system/etc/hw_config.sh
5. reboot
btw. you need an inscured adb or an insecure kernel like this -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1197263
if you do that, then at your own risk, do not complain when your phone is broken
hi,
i think it should also work without insecure adb and with stock kernel.
but root is needed...
copy the dalvik2cache file to sdcard first
with rootexplorer copy file to system/bin
set permissions
edit the hw_config.sh with editor (rootexplorer)
works great, thanks!
since my kernel supports init.d binaries/scripts u can actually just push it to /etc/init.d/ OR /system/etc/init.d/
it should work... though u may need to verify permissions... chmod 777 is best bet

i placed a scipt in /etc/init.d/ but it isnt execute on startup ...
ps:
the script is startable and permissons should be ok.
if i place the name of that script (/etc/init.d/start.sh) at the end of hw_config.sh then its executet on startup
Hi friends,
I've been trying to do this but I really don't know how to use adb. I have Android SDK installed on my computer, and fastboot, flash...ect. But every time I type "adb remount" then I get the answer is 'adb' is not found (blah blah blah...).
Plus my phone can't boot to recovery. Anyone please tell me where can I find the instruction how to do it? I really want to have more space for my phone and move all installed apps to sd card (I also have my sd card partitioned with ext3 and fat32).
Many thanks in advance.

You will have to unlock your phone first and then, using adb, install a custom kernel by fx. DooMLoRD from the link in my signature.
I dont know how to use cmd, can I use Root Explorer?
Anyway to revert it back? Because few apps are missing after it's done.

Hi harfot,
Thank you so much! I have it done now! But I wonder why the free space in my phone is now still the same (184MB - Because I only have a few apps installed).

hey! This sounds like a best solution if you dont want to unlock the bootloader. But I am not too advanced user yet, could you please explain me this one with more details? actually I only need to know
1). which permissions exactly need to be set and
2). what to write inside the hw_config.sh file
Any help appreciated!

Is this code correct
"adb remount
adb push /maps 6.2.0 -mod.apk / system/app"

Where should I place the app file?In "platform-tools" folder?
Thank you very much for helping me!

Our on the right path so far.. But the way I've always used adb I kinda dragged everything to the tools folder...I have the library and everything else there...try putting it on our tools folder and see what happens if not check the platform tools.. Just drop the map apk and try it out.

Hmm.. even root explorer.. that's strange you mean mount R/W to R/O in root explorer..
from my end i first did c:\androidsdk then was able to adb push etc...what i could suggest is wait for the signed version.. am on samsung galaxy t989, am at work, i can't really access nothing right now to check with you...i have my mytouch 4g at home...i know you have root access because you said you were able to backup and uninstall using titanium backup.. so i guess you have root access...but try the mount r/w to r/o and see what happens...

You can make the system r/w.
Code:

i know that's not the exact code but it works just fine for me.

My Kindle is alive. If someone need this files too, they can be found in the Update.bin at Amazons website.
@crzyjoker13. Good luck with your device.
Here you go, pulled straight from the latest update...
It's just the files you requested, the file structure should be correct.

Your need to get the device to be picked up by ADB and then push the files if your not able to boot into the actual system itself. Your have to ask someone else for the commands... but here's a snippet for services.odex the rest the files should be similar pieces of commands.
Code:
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
chmod 777 /system/framework
exit
exit
adb push services.odex /system/framework
adb reboot
step in the right direction

well hey this is a step in the right direction but all I need now Is to gain read write acess to /system and system/app abd I should bea able to push the old files back...my problem lies in the fact that es explorer tried to update and it messed up so I went to remove and just install the new version at the same time I was following the directions to put play market on the dev so now I can download and I have no file explorer
or if anyone know how I can push and execute an apk to the kindle I would be happy

I was having the same problem as you are and was able to fix it by doing the following.
Download and extract the files NighthawkXL has provided.
From within the folder that you saved the files run command and do the following
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
chmod 777 /system/framework
exit
exit
adb push services.odex /system/framework
adb push DownloadProvider.odex /system/framework
adb push DownloadProviderUi.odex /system/framework
exit
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
chmod 777 /system/app
exit
exit
adb push DownloadProvider.apk /system/app
adb push DownloadProviderUi.apk /system/app
adb reboot
I think this will solve your problem with the downloads not working. Please keep in mind I have small amount of knowledge when it comes to rooting, but figured that it couldn't do more damage to it since it wasn't working.

Runs ok now but I took off the system keyboard thinking the android keyboard file would be it the asop or whatever.

Use a good root file manager like Solid Explorer or Root Explorer. Make sure the file manager has permissions from SU. You may also have to tick "Show root storage" in SE.
Try Solid Explorer... never had that problem.
Use twrp, mount system and use twrp filemanager, set chmod, always working.

That depends on the files you like to replace, look at the
