[Q] Android 2.3.1 Gingerbred - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey Guys, iam new here so iam sorry if iam in the wrong topic.
I've got an HTC Desire with Android 2.2.
Today i found a style on a picture (see in attachments)
and i want to set my Desire with the same "style" ( is it "called" style?!)
so i startet to try out,how to get it. but i don't know how to do...so iam a fully noob.
Maybe anyone can tell me how to do this?!
Thanks - Patrick

What site did you get that from. Looks like a new ROM

Looks like a highly customized ROM.
Find the source and see, what widgets/launcher/icons the owner used.

I found this one here
---> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10095442&postcount=79

Well everything is on the picture, what you need to download.
Launcher is probably ADW or GO Launcher EX. Rom - CM7 IMO.

Not to seem impatient, I really like v3.7, but is there a new rom due out any time soon?

Please everyone don't make topic as topic of guerilladev.I can't release v4.0 if i don't sure it good rom or not.I need times test it.
For all : please wait me...!
I think also we have to be patient. Good things need a while.
I uploaded a look like Tom Version for all the people who doesen`t want to install a whole ROM and still uses the original ROM for it.
That is what I did: I turned back to the original German ROM because of some little bugs and installed HTC Home ( Makes the original WM6 really slow I think) and I installed the Wallpaper from Tom and the CommManager.

Fully Arabized HTC Hero Completed (Thanks Ayman)

Hello All,
It looks like Ayman at Ce4arabs.com and owner of http://code.google.com/p/arabicandroid/ has did it i have finally with me a fully arabized Hero. The OS is in English put Arabic is supported everywhere, I have checked the following software and i can confirm it works in:
Native SMS Client
Facebook app
web Browser
Warning:
Please do a nandroid backup before you attempt anything.
Nobody is responsible if you brick or damage your phone
Please contribute to this cause and approach Ayman for contribution/credits/thanks I am only a messenger.
Ok this is how it is accomplished.
Wipe Phone and Flash CKdroid 1.5 ROM (Kagu should also work but not tested maybe some one can confirm)
After Flashing the ROM proceed to the download page in Ayman Project ( http://code.google.com/p/arabicandroid/ ) and click downloads.
Download " update_ar2_n1_corrSkia.zip " and flash it
You guys can also use morelocale 2 (in the market to change the region to Arabic) and anysfotkeyboard to type Arabic.
That’s it. I will be happy to help if you guys need it Please provide feedback to help other members & Ayman out.
This is excellent!, I'm going to give it a try with kagudroid 1.1 and feedback!
Yes it's great work from Ayman, we need to support from xda-developers dev to add this Arabize to their ROMs like Mr. Adwin.
Regards
Just to confirm, I'm run KaguDroid and I've used libwebcore for the browser for a few days and installed the full pack 5 minutes after I got his tweet and it works flawlessly.
In fact, this is the only reason I upgraded to KaguDroid. It didn't work for me on 1.5.
Many thanks to Ayman Alsanad for his great work. I'll be sure to drop him a donation, it's well earned
Awesome!!
I tried extracting the libraries from his previous ROM and put it in Espresso/Hybrid and signed it .. didn't work !!
I think SenseUI (even Espresso's SenseUI) needs HTC modified libraries !!
Anyway, I'll try making a SenseUI ROM with these libraries.. or with Launcher2
but let me finish finals first :S

MAXO .. glad to see you here .. i really hate the fact that we can only use the arabizer with vanilla android .. i mean honestly .. SENSE UI rocks .. it's a candy to the eye + can't live with out the people and the messages widgets .. anyway, hopefully they can find a way to apply the arabizer to modaco .. atleast then we'll have a stable , sense UI rom to use

I'm going to give the New ROM VILLAIN a try and see if the arabizer works on it, that should fix the problem since its sense UI with 2.1!

I tried it with all 2.1 ROMs with HTC sense with no succeed
I can confirm that SMS Arabize work on these ROMs but any Internet apps (web browser, Steal, Market and GMail) FC!
I can live with Arabize SMS only, but I could not solve the libwebcore.so?!
Hope some devs help us with that.

it works with any rom without SENSE UI for sure, try kugudroid, CKDroid or any other non sense UI rom ...
if u need screenshots check the Ce4arab the android section ..
Many thanks to Ayman for his heroic work , I would like to try it , but I really love sense UI and I don't want to give it up .
Are there anymore updates coming or is this final? Arabic texts are not fully connected but better than nothing
HTC Sense UI with arabic support
OK quick update,
I have started a small project to enable Arabic on sense UI. Yes that means that you can use madaco ROMs also as well as original ROMs. Cool huh. So far i am collecting source and editing them going well but slow.
I am also changing the HTC keyboard to type Arabic (this can take a While).
I did also notice some problems we reading Arabic with English numbers and that the Arabic text is always left aligned (actually i believe that this is the problem) so i will have a look on this also.
I hope can post back soon.

I'm working on that too.. if you want, we can collaborate
anyway, yesterday I added Ayman's libraries with "Villain 1.1" and signed it..
it booted, and it reads Arabic fine .. but the Browser, and Market FC !!
I guess HTC modified the LibWebCore, not just the Browser..
I tweeted Lox today asking if HTC released their libraries source code so I can compile the "HTC version" of LibWebcore (redo Ayman's work) .. but he didn't respond yet
anyway, since it's Final exams period, I'll focus on them first..
after that I'll try to solve the browser and Market issue

Do you know what is must weird thing, it's if you upload all Ayman libs to ROM with HTC sense the phone is work but as you faced any web apps FC and if you pushed libwebcore.so from original ROM and leave libskiagl.so and libskia.so the phone will not start at all! it will hang at Hero logo!
So I don't know if these libs are connected together somehow or not?!
I did a lot of research and I couldn't find an answer.
Can we share our experience on this problem?
Regards
One more thing, try the Arabizer with any 2.1 ROM like Vanilla and Hikara because I found 1.5 ROM doesn't have libskia.so and 2.1 ROM does.

I'm with you on this !!
we want an open knowledge and communication, not like other Arabic projects
I'll post any information I found regarding this ROM. and I hope all here will do the same.
and all my future ROMs and work will be Open Source and free (GPL). and if we collaborate on a ROM we must publish it as "XDA arabic community" or something like that
anyway, for now I have to finish some projects to start studying for Finals.
so see ya in two weeks .. wish me luck
OK I'll start:
Android 1.5 with HTC Sense (Modaco 3.1):
with libwebcore.so:
- Phone hang at Hero logo and it wouldn't boot at all.
with libskia.so:
- Nothing happen, because libskia.so is not included in Android 1.5
Android 2.1 with HTC Sense ([email protected] 9.5):
with libwebcore.so:
- Phone hang at Hero logo and it wouldn't boot at all.
with libskia.so:
- Phone hang at Hero logo and it wouldn't boot at all.
with libwebcore.so and libskia.so:
- Phone boot with no problem, Messaging read Arabic very well BUT any web apps like Browser, Market and Gmail FC!
-----
I googled several times to find any HTC Sense source code or it's structure but no luck .
So in my opinion we have to choose one of following Ways:
Way one:
- To find HTC sense source code to know why compiled libs not working.
Way two:
- Try to solve the FC apps.
Thanks
by the way MaXo64. good luck with your finals.

Excellent work HishamN, your work saved us alot of flashing , I think trying to sort out the FC's should be much easier than actually trying to fix or modify the htc coding.

Trying to find a particular keyboard

Hey all, I've recently rooted my phone and been playing around with different roms. I was on LeeDroid 2.2F, but didnt like it so now I'm on Cyanogen 6.0.2 on my HTC Desire.
The only thing thats bugging me is the crappy keyboard on Cyanogen, on LeeDroid it had a couple of keyboards, the HTC one, and this other one, no idea what it was called but I really like it, the only way I can distinguish it to you guys is that on the bottom left it had a key to change from english characters to japanese/chinese(?) characters.
Anyone know which one I'm on about and if it's possible for me to get it on Cyanogen?
Also if I flashed the HTC IME Mod addon from the LeeDroid website onto my Cyanogen rom, would that actually work?
Thanks
There is the HTC one, the standard android one and Diopen. I think you want diopen.
If you unzip a leedroid rom you can find it in leedroid###/system/app under the name HTC_Desire_DioPen.apk, i don't know if you can just install it but have a try.
Yeah Diopen is the one I want, I'm pretty sure.
I extracted the .apk and tried installing it and it just said "Application not installed"
Anyway around this?

Installing new market give Force close

hi
after i the new market installed automatically now its not working and show force close , when i uninstall the updates it work .\
any Solution?
thanks.
You can leave the market updates and carry on with an earlier version of the market.
It has the same content, it's just in a different layout. Plus many people prefer the old layout, so you won't be alone.
Or
You can search the thread of the ROM you're using and see if anyone has a fix for this same problem. If you can't find anything, ask in the thread.
You're probably to get better help there, since it's very likely someone else has encountered this same problem with the ROM and replies are a whole lot quicker on there.
Good luck!
i uninstall the updates a few minutes will automatically instal the updates.
thanks.
Im not sure if something funny is going on (Maintenance maybe) as i flashed my phone a week ago and the new market installed fine flashed yesterday and still no auto update to the new style market maybe they pulled the update for the time being? can any one confirm?
If you want, you both could try finding the .apk for the new style market (it'll be on these forums somewhere) and install that over your current one.
I'm not really an expert in this, I'm just advising you based on what I would do.

I did with apk ,doesn't work
Sent from my HTC Desire HD A9191 using XDA App
Well all I can suggest is that you ask in the thread of the ROM you're using.
Thank u , but when i applied revolution Hd Rom the problem solved , i think the problem is in superuser.apk ,
It might not be related but there is a little bug in some of the MIUI roms where the Market crashes which is easily fixed by going to Settings - Language & Input and choosing English (even if the phone is already showing English). It then changes from EN to English (United States) and the problem is solved. It is covered in the FAQ of those roms. You might try something similar for your situation and rom in the future.

[Q] Some questions in chinese support

Recently I flashed Virtuous Quattro RC3 which is an awesome ICS ROM, but there are two little problem with Chinese...
I may like to have the Chinese input in official ROM 'cause there are lots of unconvinced with market keyboard... But I had search for this and found out nth. Is there any way I can do to get some similar things?
By the other hand, there is a glitch in Chinese display, after a few description expands in market (Chinese desc.), all words corrupted as unexpected (including English like the attached img), but its all fine in other ROM, had tried Absolution (The Collective). Is there anyway to solve it?
Thanks for your time and I know I am a noob
