not really sure which forum to post this in (sorry if this is the wrong one), but all of the new roms that have been created seem to lack the xt9. i had really started to like it. i downlaoded the system dump and was wondering, if i copied the T9DB folder (from the dump) over to the system folder of whatever rom im going to flash, would that fix the problem.
Melvin's ROM: Beast MOD II has it. I'm pretty sure this is more a general question though. Also pretty sure copying and pasting is a no go.

the xt9 option is in all of them under keyboard, but doesnt work. open up sms and try to type something.
i just checked :\
You also need the lib, libXt9core.so. Melvin probably removed it. You should be able to drop that and the apk in their right places and it should work.

moving the folder over to the rom's system folder within the zip fixed it :] and it didnt force close, just didnt work (even when it was enabled)
how did u get this to work? i dont understand what you are saying. Android is super new to me.
you can always install Go Keyboard, which offer XT9

its very simple. first i downloaded this system dump. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1300682 . then opened it up and dragged the folder T9DB over to my desktop. then plugged my phone in the computer and connect to usb storage. dragged the file over to my external sd card and unplugged my phone. then open up root explorer (or some file explorer that allows root access) and copied the file and navigated your main folder (just titled /) scrolled down to find system and pasted the folder in there. restart and it works
the lib is also required for it to work but that wasnt removed witht he rom im using. if you want to check to see if its still there go to the lib folder located within your system folder and scroll all the way to the bottom and their should be a file called libxt9core.so
i tried to go into as much detail as possible to make it as simple as possible for you :]
This is one of the few features of the SGH-T989 which I truly despise. I LOVED the auto-correct on the Nexus S, but XT9 frustrates me terribly because a) it assumes English and I do not always type in English and b) it will drop entire words into my sentences if I hit space or something, ending in some REALLY weird messages!! I turned it off, because it was taking me a lot longer trying to go back and edit my messages ex-post-facto than just make a spelling error here or there.
do you know where i can get the lib file at? im using bombaridier and it doesnt have it in the lib file.

if i edit my build.prop with astro, on a reboot the changes are lost, the file is marked r-w, so something altering it on bootup, anybody know where the source comes from??
Download Root Explorer and use that. Trust.
tried that, it keeps getting overwritten with some king of backup.

If that's the case, then it's a problem specific to the ROM. I haven't tried it on my TP2 but it worked flawlessly on my G1.
Lemme take a look once I get a second.
why cant i find the directory /system/ ?!?! i cant find the build.prop from within windows or winmo?!

Because it does not excist in winmo. It only excists in android.
I tried Root Explorer and it workers . I use latest froyo build with lower incall volume kernel .
Can somebody tell me when I delete apps in system/apps folder I delete from data.img or from system.ext2 ?
Same here, I change my build.prop file or replace it and it gets overwritten.
Using the build.prop for protected apps but can't get it to stay.
I am using the latest BLAZEN build from PPCGEEKS/Reefer.
Being an Ext2 file instead of sqsh I figure this would have worked flawless.
I'd really like to download logmein, gbahours, paypal and a few other protected apps. I can't without fixing this build.prop file....
OR
Find some way to get a working fingerprint Google has already approved.
Glad to see I'm not the only one looking into this I have the same problem in my android OS - different phone, but same custom OS. Hopefully this thread won't die - if I ever figure it out I'll be sure to post here as well
I just started doing the xdandroid (since it was 'finalized' on 9/16), by downloading the cab, and installing the reference version of the package.
Everything installs and runs fine. The first time. After a graceful shut-down, and re-starting, I learn that the startup.txt file is 0 bytes -- empty! So, Android won't boot.
Why is my startup.txt continually being modified and cleared?
Any info appreciated.
Thx.
Jon
I have the same Problem...
Did you guys search? If I search in the android thread on "0 bytes" I get 20 results. It's a bug of the startup utility. Don't use it or rename startup.txt to default.txt. Maybe putting the startup.txt to read only should work to.
Best option: DON'T USE MGJDROIDUTIL!!!
Also, for you cab peoples - it uses this by default - use haret.exe!!!
i had the same prob. it goes to haret and if u click run it will say it cant find default text. uninstall android. delete all files in andboot folder. reinstall. copy and paste the "startup.txt" file to the same folder. rename it "default.txt" or just "default."
the same thing will happen to the startup.txt but the default.txt will always work. you just have to hit run when it gets to haret.
I had the same issue, the problem only seems to occur when you check/uncheck the Hardware 3D Box.

Dude... it's MGJDroidUtil that's causing the issue. I hear there's an update coming, but for the time being
DON'T USE IT!!!!!!!!!
Sorry I had to get forceful with the text, but it seems some aren't getting the point...
Lol relax, I've learned that the hard way. I just wanted to explain to these guys my side of the symptom and what I notice that seems to have caused the problem. I agree with you though.
I do not even know MGJDroidUtil, but I have the same issue. It happens along side with SD card corruption (file000.chk)

Are you using the cab install & using that shortcut it put in your start menu? Then you are using MGJDroidUtil.

Jesus why can't you just not use the MGJDroidUtil?!? I'm not sure why that's so difficult. If you don't use it, it won't screw up your startup.
I had the same issues. What I did is after installing it go into file explorer and long press haret.exe and add it to programs and set it on your home screen as the link. )
There is a new startup tool, use that. Delete the old one.

I would, just because then you get a better feel of what's really happening. I installed the cab for the first time last night... that thing is an atrocity.
At any rate, MGJDroidUtil was also updated, so you should be safe using it again - assuming you're using the newly updated version that is.
hi there i got the new build 28-9 and i got the problem when i want to boot it...its says storagecard/andboot directory does not exist...while its exist... someone told me to:
Startup.txt, in the cmdline section. Don't use the startup utility (MGJDroidUtil) if you edit the startup manually tho. It'll blast out whatever you put in there.
but i dont know where the Startup.txt is..in my sd card i been searching but no results and i got a gsm touch pro 2... well maybe i should delete everything again...are these FSCK0000.REC files also from this builds?cuase i didnt delete that..i only deleted the andboot and 100android(dcim) files

Yes, the .rec files are from the build. You can put an entry in your froyo.user.conf that deletes them for you.
Also, you can't find your startup.txt...? How are you running Android, it should be where haret.exe is!
its after you install and load android. after exiting android and returning to winmo, somewhere along the lines startup text gets deleted. for what reason? i know not..
hey atleast it teaches us workarounds lol
ye i know but i could find that file thats why i think it didnt work this time for me
is com.handcent.nextsms-2.9.29 a android file? and EncFiltLog to?
tnx cheers..btw im just gonna install it all over again
Hi All,
I've taken a look around and can't seem to find anything relating to this so I'm gona ask.
I've just got my DHD and love it but I have never used Android before so it's taking some getting used to. ( I'll get there I'm sure )
My question is I have an MP3 file I'd like to use for my notifications ( comes from my HTC Touch HD ) but for the life of me I can't seem to put it in the media folder that the DHD uses. I can find it using the ES file search thing but it won't let me copy in to it?
Do I need to get admin rights? Rooting or whatever its called?
Sorry if it's a daft question. but its annoying the bejesus outa me.
Thanks in advance
JD
I think you have got to place the mp3 in a folder on the root of your sdcard called "notifications".
Hope that works!
Hi CD993,
Thanks for the reply but..
I can't find any folders on the sdcard other than the ones i've made from having it in my Touch HD.
I can however find the Notifications folder in audio on the phones memory. This has all the MP3's that the phone uses. But still I can't paste to it. Just says copy failed.
I'm just wondering if I need to "jailbreak it" or root....something something to be able to add to the root folders.
put your phone in settings,connect to pc,select disc drive now your computer willl see your sdcard as a drive look at your my computer and either go into my mobile at the bottom or go into the sdcard on my computer it comes up as Idrive as copy your mp3 file into your mobile here disconnect your mobile and search for it in your mp3 files through your media music app.you may have to reboot your mobile once disconnected from the computer so the file gets noticed.
if this is not what your looking for then sorry but I dunno.
Hi Magpie,
Thanks but no.
I already have the MP3 on the sdcard but I can't seem to copy it to the system/media/audio/notifications. This is where the phone reads the sounds that it plays when you receive email/txt etc.
Maybe I should just flash a new ROM although this appears harder than it is with the touch HD on winmo lol
Thanks for the reply anyways
JD
Edit:
I've since managed to Root the phone "give me root admin rights" but still am unable to copy files to the phones root folders.
Im sure you just put the mp3's in a folder on your sdcard called notifications e.g. sdcard/notifications/ringtone.mp3

Hi CD993,
Maybe there is a problem with my sdcard? I don't have such a folder on it. I have a music folder data folders google folders I've looked through them all and can't find a notifications folder on the sdcard?
Should the DHD be using the sdcard as its main source for audio etc?
SdCard/Sounds/Notifications
SdCard/Sounds/Alarms
SdCard/Sounds/Ringtones
SdCard/Sounds/UI
Make the folders as you need them. Then you will be able to find them in the Sounds tab in the menu.

If you have root access you should be able to write them to the main memory using a program like Root Explorer. You can find system sounds in /System/Media/Audio.

Flashing Android ROMs is so much easier than WM. It's getting the root that is the *****. It took me ages to work out how to install the ADB drivers when I first got my Desire.
Flashing ROM's just replaces two folders, so if you are updating from one AOSP ROM to another, maybe even Sense I don't know I don't use it, generally speaking you don't need to wipe the phone and you keep all of your apps.

Hi Kal,
Yes as far as I'm aware I have root perms. i used VISIOnary? and followed a thread on here When I open cmd promt or whatever its called on linux and type su it gives me the # which apparantly means i have rooted it?
Yet I was unable to copy to that folder on the phones main memory.
That ADB driver I'm afraid i've not even looked into it yet all I know is my win 7 failed to install it when I plugged the phone in for the first time.
I've gotten as far as using titanium back up for apps etc. Just need to do some more research I guess I'm new to android
anyway thanks for all your help people. i'm sure i'll have more questions in the appropriate threads as time goes by. Thanks all

Personal Audio Files for Yahoo! Mail
Everything you all have said works, if I put something in mnt/sdcard/media/audio/notifications I am able to then see the files under the Sounds Setting.
My issue is needing Yahoo Mail to see the notification. For that I need to copy the files to /system/media/audio/notification and for that I am not able to change the permissions. I have tried ES File Explorer and I am not even able to move up from sdcard. I have also tried total commander and I get "Error writing to target file! /system/media/audio/notifications/yahoo.mp3
Can someone please help. I really like the Yahoo! application.
Setting Yahoo Notification
Root explorer will allow you to change the directory from Read Only to Read Write. It can be purchased from Play (Market) or acquired by other means as I did.
Copy the file to /system/media/audio/notification using root explorer.
Reboot.
Tada...
hey so I have two problems that im 100% sure are connected. One - anything I try to download (on stock browser, ICS Browser +, and Chrome) all fail even after numerous retries and clearing Download Manager / Downloads / Browsers data and rebooting.
Two - my sdcard/Download folder appears to be empty when using Astro and through a usb connection. Going to data/media/Download, I see all the contents of the folder, but sdcard/Download shows it as empty (false).
I'm on AOKP B28 and Franco M2
Any ideas? id love to be able to download things on my stupid phone again -______________________-
Edit: SOLUTION at post #14
I just got my galaxy nexus but from previous phones this is caused by not redoing permissions. Hope this helps. Rom Manager should help.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA
Fixed permissions. Download folder still showing up as empty. Downloads still unsuccessful.
Did you flash the sense 4.0 port by any chance?
That happened to me after I flashed that, couldn't see my pictures in gallery either.
To fix it I transferred all my sdcard contents to my computer, locked my bootloader and then unlocked it again and all was good!
Transferred everything back again then after.
nope havent flashed anything crazy but my custom rom and kernel
Well give that trick a go, it might sort everything out.
that method is basically a data wipe and would require me to reinstall the rom, kernel, restore all 300 apps and data ... every lengthy process .. without even a guarantee that it will fix the problem. but ill keep it in mind as a very last resort
anyone have any other suggestions?
It won't wipe rom and kernel, they will be fine but yes, unlocking it will wipe your apps.
It really is a last resort but in the thread for the sense port that is what the dev recommends.
Try everything you can before doing that obviously but I looked and that's all I could find that would work.
I'll keep an eye on this thread so if you find any way post it because I'm interested in finding out.
so any1 have a fix? i tried searching google and xda, found no solution or anything even close ...
Download an app called "Download All". Open it just once and close it, then try downloading the file again. I've had this problem before, and this seemed to have solved the problem for me. Let me know how it works out for you.

Reading. An amazing tool.
Try Dolphin browser HD
Okay so.. I wish I would've taken a screenshot of the file before I deleted it but whatever I guess I'll just describe the entire scenario for anyone else who's having this problem and getting no answers (to the guy who said Dolphin Browser.... Really?.......).
So first of all, data/media/Download functioned 100% fine, sdcard/Download, however, was basically a hollow tomb. You couldn't place any new files into it or even access any of the old files because the folder would appear as empty. So after getting not much help from xda and getting fed up with being unable to download anything at all (you'd be surprised how many things you need to download on a daily basis), I decided to look around using Astro and Root Explorer... Now this is where it gets weird/interesting...
So, using Astro, I found nothing out of the ordinary. But going into Root Explorer, I found a file(not folder) called "download" which was 4.36mb, had permissions rw-rw-r I believe, and showed no content when using a text editor or opening as a zip file. At first I tried setting this files permissions to that of any other folder I had in /sdcard, thinking all my download problems were because the permissions were set wrong, but even after changing the permissions, I couldn't download anything off the Internet. So I go back to the file, again with Root Explorer (this file wouldn't even show up in Astro.. anywhere), and decide to rename it, thinking it's just causing problems (deliberately or accidently) to downloadxxxx.zip (it had no extension before, just strictly "download") but even after this my problems still persist. Lastly, I just decide to delete this weird file altogether and... Voila, I was able to copy a file into my Download folder again, I can download files off the Internet, and i can view/access the contents of the folder. So everything is back to normal, hurray. I'm just curious what the hell that 4.36mb file could have been and why was it messing with downloads even after being renamed (I figured, okay, if it had the same name as the folder, that might cause problems, but after a rename... It made no sense). My only thought now is that the file was a trojan, but I'm not a coder or massive software techy so I can't say for sure. Anyways, problem solved. Just goes to show, sometimes you gotta take matters into your own hands. Hope this will help someone in the near future. Cheers.

Good job! This one is being saved as a mental note!
Also I don't want to be pedantic, OK I lie I do, but by woala I presume you meant voila as in the french word.
I dabbled in a bit of French in school.
only thing that worked for me was to lock and unlock the phone.(for some weird reason rom manager does not correct permission and gives an error). You will erase everything but at least you start fresh, eh?

I am having the exact problem that you are and would love to try your fix... The only problem with that is I need to know where you found this file? I did a search using Root Explorer but didn't see any files called download, just a bunch of folders and databases with the "string" download somewhere in their name. Any help would be great but I am getting very close to just locking my phone again and starting over in hopes that this will do the trick.
Thanks
I customized the UI sounds for the SGS3: Tick Effect & Keyboard sounds with that of WP7 tick sound and customized the camera / video button sound, etc.
Make sure you rename your stock UI sounds (Example: *tick_effect) before you over-right them.

What seems to be the prob? Just download the zip to your sdcard, unzip it, open root explorer, copy and paste the apk's you want to install and copy and paste them in: Root/System/app
Should be it. *might have to install it and or change permissions*
Awesome! I had to turn off the touch clicks and, since I hate haptic feedback, it's nice to be able to regain some response in the phone's UI.
Thanks.
If you want to further customize your UI to resemble WP7 here is the font.
Should be able to just install the apk and go to settings display and set font.http://db.tt/Wmgm3nST

when i try to rename the stock ui sounds so i can ad the new ones root explore says something about bricking my device lol can anyone give me the steps to do this correctly
Use root explorer, make the directory r/w, copy the sounds into system / media / audio / ui folder.... You will (or should be if you are doing it right) be overwriting pre existing files. Once done and you have overwritten the sounds you wanted to change, reboot phone.
You may need to rename the file if you want it represent/be used for another function. For example, inside the zip file there is a file names backspace.ogg..... Say you want to use it for the TW_touch.ogg sound.... You will need to rename it and all that. Only problem is by the time you cuztomize things to the way you like, a new updated rom is put out and you have to do it again!

It's just warning you because you are editing system settings. Renaming anything in the specified folder won't cause any damage.
ok so i unzipped the file on my sd card extracted to a folder i named ui on the sd card....now when i try to copy the files and move them to the system ui folder it says copy of all files failed..i mam using es file explorer

Use Root Explorer, other file managers won't have permission to change system files. With Root Explorer you will also need to select Mount R/W to be able to write to the system folder.
Make sure you rename all the original files if you ever want to use the original sounds again...I just went back to AOSP lock/unlock sounds, the WP7 sound was a bit sharp.
all worked as soon as i got root explorer thanks guys, am dissapointed though as i am looking to get away from the drip and water sounds, i guess i want a more iphone like sound for typing and lock and unlock without having the iphone....any ideas

You can replace them also... Just need to identify the sound files you want and the name(s) of the files to replace... Easy peasy.....

I assure you, you wont brick your device from just renaming a sound file. I do it all the time. Maybe its for when you try and rename a needed framework or system file.

Thats why i back up my Media folder and any other mods i do to the Rom and upload it to DropBox and then when i flash a new rom, i just download it back to my phone with DropBox.
