copy and paste problem - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a way to improve the highlighting of text and copy and paste ?
When I place a finger over text I just typed, I get an annoying pop-up and can't do anything intuitively.
Is there a way to make typing text on the Galaxy S as smooth as an iphone ?
(Using official Froyo on O2 UK)

really, no-one knows a more useful copy & paste method ?

SMS key pad

I'm looking for a program which will let me text someone using a standard mobile keypad...does anyone know if this is possible to do or even better, program which is already out there somehwre.
I have had a look via Google and on this site but not had any luck :-(

I really like tengothumb. check it out. it has 6 buttons instead of 9 like a cellphone pad, but its still realllyyy fast.
I personally use touchpal pro. Find at www.cooltek.com Or try using Phonepad.
please let me note if this file is infringing anything, I extracted it from my WM5 Rom.
Anyway, hope I could help.

To install on such devices as "Universal" just use .cab
Any other install .cab then extract all files from zip, highlight them and copy them to the devices /windows folder replacing the originals.
Thanks babe...I couldn't get either of the programs you downloaded to work but managed to get PhonePad on and it works fine - exactly what I wanted!

This is a fantastic keypad!! But when i copy the folder of the language and i start IntelliPadOpt.exe the first option is missing, is not visible. Is visible only the square. Because? Is normal? The first time the option was visible, but second time the option there wasn't visible

Something like 'grep' for Android?

I have a few hundred text files in a folder on my SD card, and I need some way of searching across them. For instance, if I search for 'balloon', it needs to returns the names of the files that contain the word 'balloon', not in the filename, but in the text.
Bonus points if it would allow for wildcards, or allow me to open the result files in an editor or viewer.
Does anyone know of something like this? It's basically a frontend to 'grep' along with a simple GUI.
EDIT: Oh, and before someone mentions it...Aurora does NOT do this. It can search the filenames, but not within the text files.
An up from a dusty cupboard
Very old thread, up !
I'm looking for a command in Android shell, to do the same job as "grep" for Linux/UNIX ?
Someone got an alternative ?
Thanks

Sense Bookmark Icons

Hi there,
i searched the forum for a while now for a problem that every now and then pops up for me after reflashing. I'm searching for an automatic way to assign my own thumbnail graphics on the sense internet tab.
I use the manual way sometimes after flashing, but it is not satisfying me, because it takes lot of time to copy the files, rename my original files to the newly created ones and copy them back. So most of the time i don't use the icons...
Yes, i know that the pics have to be 512x512px PNG Files, and i also know that they are stored under Windows\Thumbnails .
I'm searching for where the information for the lookup of these pics (for example {2B1EE4E4-651F-D4DC-708B-DB1319CA381E}.png) is stored. I neither found it in the registry, nor in the filesystem as plain text. I copied the whole file system to my pc and did a in-file-search.
For me there are now to last possibilities where to find them:
Theyre stored as hex values in registry or in filesystem, so that a normal textsearch is useless or
theyre stored in a database file.
If someone has an idea which file it is or if theres another possibility i would be glad to hear it. It makes me crazy that we can change EVERYTHING on our wm-devices since years, but something like the bookmark icons (whch is significant for me) is so hard to find
best regards, Puckmeister
Are you looking for "Custom icons" or just a snapshot of the webpage? I know that if you save the favorite in opera 9/10 and open the favorite from inside opera (from the favorites menu) you will then see the screenshot of said favorite in sense.

battery calibration help

Hi all, i have a question with the battery calibration app step..
2. Navigate to sys>devices>platform>ds2784-battery>setreg>long press>open in text editor, then:
a. set your aEvolts to 3201 (type 0x66 a4 in setreg & save/exit)
i have no problem finding the file but when i go to it and long press how do i open in text editor.. i tried a few different text editor apps and it didnt seem to help i get an error.. thnx
i got the file to open with quick office but it seems blank.. is it supposed to be?
im 90% sure its not supposed to be blank im having the same problem. Ive tried to open the file with 2 text editing programs and its still blank so idk what to do from there.
It's supposed to be blank. You enter the register data into the blank file and save it, and that sends the command to the battery.
Root explorer is what I use, long press, open in text editor.
But we are working on updating the app with setreg so you can just do it easier from the app rather than needing to use setreg. Coming soon.
i can't find the path:
Navigate to sys>devices>platform>ds2784-battery>setreg
i'm using and explorer
you must be running one of the supported kernels to see the file in ds2784. cyan, pershoot, etc. which kernel are you running?
Hey, all work for me now. I'm now in the Tread from you signature active.
Tanks

How to select and copy text in MS Word?

Looks like and easy question, but I'd like to know how to do that using VBA, like:
HTML:
Sub Macro2()
'' Macro2 Macro
'' Selection.copy
End Sub
(I dont know if this "code" is right)
The thing is, I have a Word Document I use all day at work, and I keep jumping from page to page and copying and pasting texts on it.
Id like to speed that process addind a button beside every text to select and copy the text for me, than I can paste anywhere I want.
I hope is clear enough. English is not my first language.
Thanks
