[Q] CM7 Quick keys shifted over one - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am currently having a problem in CM7.1 RC where my quick keys are shifted over one from settings. For instance, when i set quick key #1 in settings it is actually #2 on the keyboard. #2 in settings becomes #3 on the keyboard. #3 in settings is nothing.
Anyone have a solution for this?

So no one else has this problem? I've searched many times for a solution and still draw blanks. Please help

Fresh 3.2.0.0: turn optic off?

I searched and did not find an answer. How does one turn of haptic feedback on this build? I turned it off on two separate screens and it still vibrates?!?
Settings/sound... 3rd from the bottom

Wow, thanks. So I guess there are at least 3 places to turn off the haptic feedback - confusing :O
Also, in the Language and Keyboard settings there are Touch Input and HTC_IME Mod, and they each have many of the same settings. Which takes priority?

[Q] Missing zoom buttons in browser?

I have a desire with stock unrooted ROM. Its also been upgraded OTA to the latest froyo release.
I am sure the standard web browser used to have zoom buttons appear when you scrolled up and down but they have gone and I can't get them back.
Cleared the user data and removed the SD card but still they are not there.
Anyone know how to fix this?
you can pinch-zoom you know...
Yeah but the zoom buttons are great for one handed use. Gotta get em back.
Can anyone confirm the buttons are there on their desire with the latest build?

Zoom buttons
Zoom buttons is an option that can you can tick on/off in the browser settings.
I can't see that.i have set text size and default zoom but nothing else zoom related. What is the option called in your settings screen?

Why are you using your phone with one hand?

Because I am steering with my knees and I have a beer in the other hand
HTC have confirmed that the zoom buttons should be there on build 2.10.405.2 but they want me to send the phone back to the service centre to resolve the issue. Really don't want to have to do that!
Menu option
Just checked my menu.
*open standard webkit browser
*menu -> more -> settings (I presume, I have Dutch language menu's)
*beneath my 'standaardzoom' (standard zoom), I have the option to tick off/on 'Show visual zoom control'.
That's what you are looking for.

[Q] HW Keyboard Shortcuts gone on CM7

Hey guys,
Tried searching for this several times with no luck and this (bug?) annoys the crap out of me.
Has anyone noticed that the hardware keyboard shortcuts no longer work with CM7?
That is to say:
[menu + a] = select all
[menu + c] = copy
[menu + v] = paste
Anybody know of a solution or workaround?
Thanks
Are these shortcuts also set in the cyanogenmod settings? It may be a bug of the version you are on, try rolling back one or two versions.
I've been on several of the CM7 nightlys (currently on RC4) and none of them have these shortcuts configured. They were working out of the box on stock rom, CM6 and MIUI.
As far as i Know these are standard shortcuts that have always "just worked" without having to set them up anywhere.
As detailed in this thread under the section "Keyboard Tips":

Nobody?
Is my question posted in the wrong section or am I the only one facing this issue?
In any text box while using the hardware keyboard:
Is anyone able to select all text using the shortcut "menu + a"
or copy text using "menu + c"

Yep
Except that in some cases the menu stills pops up when doing that, which kills the selection

I thought I was crazy. Maybe there's two of us crazies, then. With CM7, I just can't Select All with the hardware keyboard. My conclusion is that since Gingerbread hasn't hit any keyboard-toting phones, there may be something missing from the code.

Me (LG GW620 owner) and my friend (HTC G2 owner) faced this problem, so we googled it and stumbled upon this thread.
We both have the same problem regarding the select all thing. Not touching the text box with the touch screen and using Menu+A does nothing. Touching the text box and then using Menu+A selects and deselects.
I guess we can confirm that this is not a G2-specific problem, since it also happens on a LG GW620 using the Open Eve ROM (CM7-based), and a G2 using CM7.

Many questions unanswered

How do you change input method once dloading a new keyboard
I GOT IT CHANGED IN SETTINGS BUT SEEMS CHANGING.IT FROM THE SECOND PART IN THE TEXT BOX BY LONG PRESS DOESNT WORK ON...HOX
INFACT NEITHER DOES YH
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA
Yeah - they've implemented a clumsy way of changing the keyboard on the HOX.
Long press has no effect - however when typing if you look at the notification bar at top of screen you will see a keyboard symbol - change the keyboard this way 'instead - it says something like 'select input method' on the drop down
Im not seeing it typing see no symbol to change input method
Is it possible in settings i changed something for it to appear

[Q] Volume toggle on lockscreen

Hi all,
I have a HTC Desire Z running Audacity Beta 4 (+++)
As far as I can tell, there's no way of configuring a volume toggle in the lockscreen unlike previous ROMs which had this by default. I've seen posts in the Audacity development thread (pages 409-) describing how to add the camera to the lockscreen, however I want to reverse this and re-enable a mute/sound toggle on the lockscreen. I've been into the system->settings->lockscreen but that offers no volume toggle options under apps or activities.
I'm currently working around this by using "Mute" but this seems to be an ugly fix to what seems to be a missing system option.
Does anyone have any better solution or ideas?
Thanks in advance

Well, since you can't disable access to the notification bar, you can use the toggle there.
I just looked into this myself and you're right. I did find a workaround though. If you have Tasker you can make a task that switches toggle states and then bind that task to a lockscreen slot with Task Cut (selectable on the first page).
Granted that won't update your icon, but it's something.
As mentioned above though, you can also toggle it from the power widget in the notification drawer.

Thanks for the responses. As Tasker isn't free I'll stick with the "Mute" app and add that to the lockscreen for now.
The whole point of this was so that I don't have to unlock on the way in/out of appointments etc... I can just wake the screen and swipe left to mute/unmute the phone. Granted it's not a huge amount of effort to unlock and use the power widget in the notifications screen, but it is an extra step and we're all about efficiency (or idleness!)
It just seems odd to me that this should be something that's inbuilt on the lockscreen, but I guess the developers take a different view nowadays. (It would be nice to have options for both camera and mute in the lockscreen options)
I'd like to have a go at creating an app to do this for myself.
Can anyone recommend any threads on how to start development - I'm reasonably ok with programming though I'll freely admit that java's object orientation will be a bit of a learning curve. I'm hoping that this will be a relatively simple task - All I want to do is to mute/unmute from the lockscreen without changing anything else...
I've found these bits of code to play with:
http://stackoverflow.com/a/7318028
http://stackoverflow.com/a/10921268
but where do I start in trying to create an app around this and packaging it? adb? Can anyone point me in the right direction? I'm looking for an "android how to write apps" or something like that...
Thanks in advance
[edit] - found the android developers pages now and am starting "my first app" - If anyone has any hints and tips though, they'd still be appreciated. Thanks
