[DEV][ICS-AOSP] Alpha3 - Physical Keyboard Patch Fix!

Hey guys,
Click here to download the
ICS-AOSP (Angel_666 release) Alpha3 Keyboard FIX!​
1. How to install:
- Flash Alpha3 ZIP using CWM
- Flash this ZIP using CWM over Alpha3 (also works over Alpha3 + root and/or wifi & market fix)
- Clear Dalvik cache!!!
- Reboot & Enjoy
2. Known issues:
- Occasional white artefact in system tray on boot. Goes away afterwards. Note that I will not even attempt to fix this!!! Don't ask!
- Does not work on any other ICS build EXCEPT ALPHA3 by Angel_666!!!
WARNING: Do not flash if you use 3G or GPRS!!! This patch will f#!$ up GSM!
Note that because of two reasons, I decided to create a separate thread for this fix:
1. Everyone started asking about fixes in main thread instead of letting the devs do their thing
2. I want everyone to find the fix fast, without having to look for page xxx in the long thread.
Regardless, I also want to prevent this CWM zip from turning into Alpha4!!
@ani55: you can also link this ZIP in the main thread, but we will answer questions here about this fix.
Hope you like it! Give thanks!!!!
Peace,
C.

It's working. Thank you.

thanks, cheatman.

Hah not lazy. You are at least trying (said the shrink to the suicidal teen trying to hang herself).
I know you will get it right.
Btw. While I was GSM less. Your patch changed something with the pattern pictures. The dots where weird size like they where on 240 dpi.

if stock keyboard, just try disable this gesture typing.
- if all setting properly checked but still got issues try reset keyboard by clear data & cache from setting> apps> keyboard.
- if still the same, re-root, install back any good ROM or custom kernel.
thats why we here, bcoz we dont want to use something c**** from stock!!

problem solved???

OK let me know
Do you have Google keyboard v3?

Install swype.
Profit.
I WAS also having issues with lag on swype, but after disabling all the settings I don't use(like next word prediction, the aosp spell checker) and double space period, and then disabled auto spacing but then enable auto spacing again(for some reason my lag did not go away until I toggled this off/on again) things are running smooth.
You can try same with Google keyboard settings, and if you don't need aggressive spell check then disable that as well.
If it mainly lags while you are on the charger, it could also be due to the device getting warm and CPU hitting the thermal throttle temperature causing max freq of 700mhz to be used until CPU temp drops again.

The problem is like this and is not solved

I will tell you my exact problem...
It happens mostly when i am typing on xda website.. When typing everything is perfect but when i press backspace it deletes the letters of the first line even though i press only backspace it changes its position (reason unknown) and also when i am scrolling throughout the page sometimea it throws me to the top.. It also happens in messages and about that prs i also tested it and most of the time it is above 40 but it is not constantly over 40 so that maybe the reason....

Switched the rom to cm11 because it was not being solved so now it is ok
It was annoying and typing was very difficult with it
It is still present but I am ok with it since cm rom is the most bug free rom (atleast for me)

[Q] NEED HELP: D855 Widgets blink after screen unlock

I have issue with my widgets after unlock. Most of the time after screen unlock, widgets disappear for one or two seconds. It looks like widgets reloading from some reason. I have tried factory reset, hard reset, even flash kdz file, but still no change.
Anyone have an idea what can be root of this problem?

Same here,
I don't think it's an issue...
Maybe it's normal ? Maybe a sort of deep sleep or something like that... ?

Same sentiments on LG G2...got ducking tired of it and switched to Nova!

It's not normal and it's the launcher. Launcher redraws do that.
If you have lots of apps running, well the launcher is "reloaded" when you go back home. Due to the nature of heavy things happening on the G3 lock screen I think this happens a lot.
Third party launchers alleviate the issue to some extent.

I also tried to edit build.prop file in system where i added ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1, but it didn't help.
There must be some way, how to keep launcher in memory.
By using third party launchers i will miss some widgets.

To solve this blink issue, I use AppSetting (Xposed Module) and i select "Resident" in settings of com.lge.launcher2.
Reboot, and you're done.
This option let your phone to keep this application in RAM.

Thanks...solve my problem

What worked for me was force stop Chrome and dont use it. use a different browser. So far no redraw.

fixed
I think this blink issue already fixed by new software update release couple days ago. I face the same problem then. Now no more blink in the home screen.

Color balance issues and a few others

I finally got my new OP3 but I've noticed some color shifting when tilting the phone. Is this normal? Also I need help with something else. I want to completely remove lockscreen wallpaper on oxygen OS, so that it shows my home screen wallpaper. I'm rooted and I've tried deleting the keyguard wallpaper files, but all it does is show me a black screen unlike on the OP2. Can someone help?

1) there is no colour shifting on my op3, do you have a tempered screen guard on your phone?
2) when on oxygen os launcher long press on empty area of your home screen and select the lock screen wallpaper from there. its annoying that everytime you have to switch to oneplus launcher to change lockscreen wallpaper.

Isn't it possible to straight up get rid of it? I remember doing it on the OP2. By uninstalling the keyguard wallpaper file in system/users. But it keeps coming back after a black screen... And about the color balance, it only appears if I tilt my phone, which I read is a common problem with AMOLED screens all over. Can you confirm?

The only way is to set the same wallpapers for homescreen and lockscreen, there is no way to get rid of the wallpaper so you'll have to do it manually.

[Q] How is your experience with Nougat so far?

Hello all,
As the title says, what is your opinion about Nougat? After reading so many bug related posts here and in reddit, im frustrated to update to the newest version of android. How does it compares to marsmalow in terms of battery, performance and bugs? Is it safe to update now, of do your suggest to wait a little longer for a bugfix update? And finally, if your suggest me to update, do your recomend any custom rom/ kernel?
Thanks in advance.

Fine, I love my 5X, but there are some bugs that I have:
*In Whatsapp audios or call if I put my face in the phone (or simple if I cover the distance sensor) the screen goes black and I can't turn on again...maybe if a press the power button 3 times the screen turns on. that is REALLY annoying!, I dont know if is a software problem or if my tempered glass is the real problem...
*The screen rotates very easy...sometimes I move my phone just a little and the screen rotates...
*When screen turns off it doesnt fade "slowly"...its something cosmetic but I dont like it haha

Hm, i dont use whatsapp so i dont mind if there is a bug about it. Do you have the same problem during calls too? Also, what about battery and performance?

I have these bugs:-
1. I have a problem with the battery percentage toggle, i change it to like "everytime" but sometimes it auto switches back to "only when charging", in 6.0.1 there was only an option to show percentage which worked fine.
2. I also have a problem after sep security update the swipe up from overview to open multiwindow doesnt work, it is on in the settings tho, it worked on the first 7.0 aug security one but now it doesnt.

This features disable automatically when you go to System ui tuner. Just enable it and don't touch this settings.

Also, I have a bug with double icon of alarm clock in status bar, like on screenshot. Reboot can fix it.

I think i can live with a few bugs. What about the more important things like battery life and performance? How do they compare to marsmalow?

I recently reverted back to marshmallow, I was getting horrible battery drain. Like 10℅ an hr while in my pocket. I had to leave it on battery saver mode if I wasn't going to be near a charger. But besides that it's awesome, love all the new features.
Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk

For me, unlocking the device harder. I have to swipe further in order to do it, and it also happens when I want to swipe a notification at the lock screen.
In addition Spotify song playing from google now through an Android Wear does not work unless the Nexus is unlocked.
Finally, battery life is not really god in my case.

After reading your replies, i decided to stay in marsmalow for a couple of months. Thanks everyone

It's only been a couple days for me but everything is working well on the stock OTA update so far.
I like the new features and Doze is working brilliantly again so there is a noticable improvement to battery life.
