HTC Input for cyanogen 7 - G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps

I was trying to find a working version of the HTC Input keyboard with Cyanogen 7 because I really don't like the stock keyboard. Just wanted to share that I found one, not sure if everyone already knew or not but I thought I may as well just in case.
here's the link
The version that works is the High Res(Froyo/2.2), I haven't tested very much but it seems to be working fine.
As a side not, anyone know if there is any way to get the HTC Camera app working on cyanogen? I miss the effects etc. but am loving CM7 at the moment
(N.B. I am using CM7 Nightlies #4)

I need them ,too. In Sense, I love keyboard, cam and FM apps. I don't know why I turn on FM, bluetooth is turned on too.

gimpsta.com
sign up and make your own keyboard. customer ones.. v27 froyo works with cm7 rc1. just checked..

Because HTC wasn't nice enough to share the source code for the FM radio with the developer community. So the only way our developers know of to turn on the radio is to power up the whole chip, which includes bluetooth. Without the small amount of proprietary HTS code we are helpless to turn it on by itself.

according to my newsfeed, though, the desire z source code was fully released a few days ago. Was the fm radio source code not included?

Honeycomb 3.0

Hi,
Attached is a build of Honeycomb for DesireHD, I managed to find this by browsing the net and take no credit for creating it whatsoever.
I'm hoping one of our more clever members can do what needs doing with this to make it work on our beloved HD2.
Thanks.

Nobody is interested? Or is it a fake? Can anybody (with the right skills and tools) check this please.
???
Are you serious ?! someone can verify that build or can you make some screenshots ?
Could be, but dont know if his link is trusted.

honeycomb is not really made for phones as I understand?

Yes that's what i read
but hey
DFT can make it a reality as usual XD
If you check the link in my post, ist already ported and working.
There is a video there to, its a Dutch site though.
Yes its ported to EVO & is working..!!!
PS: - I haven't tried yet though

It is a genuine link, I haven't tested because I don't have a desire, I have seen video footage of it running from the same source and I have inspected the file which looks about right to me, just needs correct drivers and repackaging I believe. If only I knew how to do the repackaging and which driver files were needed I would do it myself.
Yup this is built for tablets and not phones but there are a few tablets with screens not much bigger than our hd2's. It may not even be practical for daily use but I'd love to have a play. : )

May be we can have a working one on our HD2's, can't say, DFT & the cheifs here ROCK..!!!
I like the lock screen & the home screen, it a really an evolution from the older Android Versions..!!!
So hope we get a working port pretty soon..!!!
here's a video for DesireHD release..

I know that mdeejay or one of the other devs on here could get it working in no time, I just don't have the knowledge, fingers crossed.

the expert cooks should be working to port it to the archos tablets
Booted it on my HD2, but... it lags, nearly nothing works by now etc, and it's hard to hit interface buttons... not sure this will be really useful, but I'll try to work on it
Don't ask for upload please...
Can someone point me in the direction for a tutorial for creating clockwork mod roms please?
this would be probably better suited for viewsonic g tablet
Probably, would still be fun to play with on my phone though.

I haven't had any fun
Nothing really works, sdcard mount, wifi, radio, bluetooth, etc etc, even some buttons are not properly mapped, so i couldn't turn the screen off, i haven't took a closer look though.
Default launcher, and some interface parts lag SO much
But this will really take time, cause everything should be fixed, and cause it's still preview SDK - not really worth it.

Get a mirror - Skype video calling now runs on Desire

Yup. Tried it. Works great. U'll def need a mirror and an extra hand cos it gets tiring after a while.

lol nice - I don't suppose anyone knows if it works on a xoom yet?
I'll be annoyed if it does as my other half wanted to skype to her friend but we had no camera other than the xoom and now I got a camera for her laptop as I couldn't convince them both to use googletalk
I bet Skype is still buggy though.

Yep. Major buggy. Couldn't get vid to work, mute and speaker buttons not working. Still have to sign in and out everytime otherwise it constantly runs (not a bug, I know, but a bloody big annoyance). Uninstalled to an earlier version.
i'd use gtalk if i had friends on gtalk... then again i have no friends on skype either
i'm still not big on the whole video chat to be honest anyway!
It's still got issues. Having to sign in and out all the time. Having to type password each time. Some online contacts don't show for ages. Getting missed calls without so much as a ring. But so far video was very good but as expected big drain on battery due to screen on(video) and skype seemingly running in background.
Overall I'm happier. Now where is that conversion kit to use the back camera as a front camera. What came of the OneMoreFace concept. We could do with something like that nowish.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
tried it from my Desire (froyo) to an iPhone/skype.
I received the video from their end, but couldn't send out my video signal :-(
I'm on Reflex S and its no good, my video initializes but then as soon as call is answered, blank screen it just goes black, but I can still receive theirs....
Tried it today, didn't receive nor i could send my video.. Quite dissapointing, but fingers crossed they fix it soon.
Has anyone tried this on the stock 2.3. It didnt work for me.
I tried this on skype this morning managed to get it to work. Seems to look alright on the computer over Wifi. Havent tried over 3G yet. Audio quality does need improving though, but the video seemed alright, a bit slow but alright.
I can report that using InsertCoin CM7 HBOOT/STOCK 1.0.9, the new Skype version does not allow video for me.
I use instead the patched version here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16323558&postcount=1028
version 0.6 based on the previous version.
seems to work really fine once you set the resolution to Force 320 X 240.

it doesnt work for me either on IC 1.0.9
i think maybe cause its is an Ace S based rom (DHD i think ?)
Yup, I have Insertcoin 1.09 using latest v06 snq kernel and it seems not working.
works for me here with plain IC 1.0.9 and using v0.6 of the skype mod (not Kernel), but need to set the camera option to "force 320x240" otherwise it will not work.
Nice news, i will give it a try shortly
On my desire with CM7 new skype is not working properly. I can't send video.
Patched version mentioned by Biafolio is working on Cm7 Rc 7. 1 if black screen problem checked in advance settings. Thanks.

It worked for me either instead of version from the Market, but the phone unexpectedly rebooted two times. I guess it's some kind of a bug.
The most strange of all that I was not using the phone at that moment. Well I've uninstalled patched version and now I'm waiting for the next official release from the Market.

[App] Pissed that VM didn't include FM radio in stock? Spirit FM Radio

Just a shoutout to those apk makers [Mike Reid] out there. Try Spirit FM Radio, an android market free download ($10 unlocker for best results). Packing it in my new rom. Nice.
Rob
Thanks insink71.
Saw your post long ago and didn't have anything to add at the time.
LOTS has changed and improved the last 4+ months, including support for stock, un-rooted devices.
I have one user now who has a problem with severe system slowdown when running my app in that mode (without SU). It may not happen when the earphone is not plugged in though.
I'd be interested to know if anyone else sees this problem. To get the same experience when rooted, deny SU to Spirit when it starts.
April 13 free version is here: http://www.mediafire.com/?g4d0at7b3nc3p1z
Thanks !
I can test this.

Still perfect sound.
On new phone, HTC unlocked but not rooted; dead stock.
Must be not plugging proper earphones in.. I've heard if the chord is too short it doesn't pich up as the antenna it should be ::shrug::
Ya want me to test free version too? I got unlocked and it picks up more stations than my car radio.. no lie.

Versions prior to the UI update seem fine, and now he's set Theme to Dark and it looks like the problem may be gone. I'm still wondering how that might be a problem though.
I just got a VM WFS primarily because it has FM radio. However, even after downloading the HTC widget I could not get it to work?
Do all VirginMobile WFS have FM radio? I'd purchase the lite version on Google Play but I'm not sure if it would work...
I tried the above link for the free version of this app but the file is no longer there.
Any ideas/thoughts?
Thanks,

He already answered your question, the 4.1.2 weren't ever completed, they were abandoned... hence why the issues in those roms are still present.
Install PACRom 18.2 and then apply the fixes for keyboard etc. I think the fixes are in the litekernel thread. Put on the latest litekernel for 4.1 keyboard fix, lights fix and you'll have the best working 4.1.2.
Note - skype and bluetooth headset still won't work, pretty sure the camera issue with rotation is still present. I ran pacrom 18.2 for MONTHS without any issue except those listed and the wake lag.
I was trying to port something, not use it as a rom.

GPS has always worked. Some of the technical data returned is invalid/bogus but Google Maps/Navigation is completely unaffected.

Again, it's always worked, so long as you don't have an app trying to record audio at the same time.
Skype Working
Click to expand...

Skype works for text messages, but received audio in calls is corrupt. The core of the issue is audio playback breaks when an app opens the microphone. (Ironically, the microphone itself actually works fine, i.e. voice recognition has messed up audio cues but it does process what you say correctly.) Current hypothesis is it's a driver issue. Research is ongoing. This is a longstanding issue going all the way back to our very first JB kernels.
Camera Working

Current CM10.1 and derivatives have a fully working camera.
Google Now Working (this seems to be an issue from all custom Roms)

This is actually a known problem with Google Now itself, it depends on an instruction set the Tegra 2 doesn't have. The Galaxy R and the Galaxy Note 10.1 have the same problem, on ALL Jellybean ROMs, even official. Bug Google, not us.
There is a workaround: downgrade GNow to a working version (possibly by flashing old gapps), then disable "Hotword detection" in settings. Once that is turned off you can upgrade to the latest and it will still work.
Thanks for the reply

Thanks for the reply but:
1) GPS was not locking for me until I changed the gps.conf file in MOST of the ROMs I've tested.
2) Music didn't work on one rom I tested (now and then the music player started lagging and it automatically stopped every few seconds for a few milliseconds)
3)Thanks for the Skype reply; I was hoping there was some version with this fixed but evidentely not.
4)Camera flips orientation in all the roms I've tested. HDR just worked in 1 of them. Camera actually crashed from time to time in one of them.
5)Oh, sad about the Google Now fact. It's actually one of the main reasons I wanted JB
The skype thing Can't be a hardware issue since I've used skype several times before rooting my device. The issue you are talking about happens on google voice sometimes; therefore I'm guessing you're right on thinking that the problem is on the driver.
I'm very interested in ROM building since I'm an app developer for android and a C++ programmer; yet I've been too lazy to check how it worked. Are the drivers we are using open source? or are we just messing with the conf files trying to get things fixed?

Poring MIUI

Hey All,
I have been hovering around the MIUI forums, and it seems like they have beta version of MIUI available for the HTC One (GSM/International). I searched for porting guides and it seems as if we would need a boot.img that matches the Android version 4.2.2. Does anyone have access to that? My understanding is our partitions are different from the rest of the HTC One's, does the Sprint version have similar partitions?
Also, I don't think MIUI has the proper coding to run on a CDMA network, is that correct? Any other differences that need to be looked at to get this thing booting on our devices?
Thanks

I had miui on my verizon S3 so it is possible.
I have read that our partitions are different from sprints. I am not knowledgeable enough to explain or say anything further though.
Miui is built from source since it is based off of cm.

It's not built from source at all. It's more or less a themed modded version of cm. You build miui into the cm apps, and it uses the cm kernel but it's not source built at all.

I did not know that..so technically its doable using a stock sense ROM..kind of like porting 4.3 Roms to our Verizon variant?
So,...how much interest is there in this?
I did a quick initial port and everything seems to be working. :good:
There are a few small quirks yet to be ironed out, but nothing that effects usability at all.
Mainly the fact that the 3g and 1x icons are always showing, one over the other, even though I believe 4G to be working.
Anyhow, data, calls, camera, wifi, Gps, all that stuff works fine...
It uses the Sense camera and includes the HTC TV application as well.
The rest of it is miui applications and UI.
Let me know, as I have no plans to persue it any further unless more people actually want it.
