Original ACE keyboard - Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys, after flashing various ROMS to fulfill my girlfriends satisfaction (more APK space, better batterylife and reception etc etc) she has realised that her keyboard has changed from the original type with Swype and the numbers in the layout of a calculator or something?
does anyone have the APK AND .so files to flash either in a .zip or pushable to the phone via ADB?
Thanks!

[Q]Replace stock Swype / dual Swype

Hi, I have i9000 with stock XXJPU rom, rooted, its stock Swype has my language (Polish) but with phonetic letters , which limits my SMS size (as those letters count as more than 1 character over GSM network).
I'd like to replace it /use it along with some special versions of Swype (with only 2 languages + Polish without phonetic letters)
Swype is located in system\app\ and consists of both .apk and .odex file.
I tried:
1. Installing custom .apk = it would ask me if I want to upgrade Swype, if proceed- "Could not install" or sth similar.
2. Replacing stock .apk in system\apps\ with custom .apk and deleting .odex = Swype FC
Ideally I would like to use both versions of Swype, so here comes the question(s):
1. Is there a way to modify a custom Swype .apk so that the system treats it as just another IME to use along with stock Swype ?
2. If 1. is impossible- then how can I replace stock Swype with a custom one (I guess there is a problem with that .odex file ...)
You can delete swype apk+odex from system/app and libswype.so from system/lib ... Restart your device and install any version of swype you want.

[Q] Samsung Keypad

just tried coldmod gingerbread rom and really like it but it doesn't appear to have the samsung keypad under input method. have i done something wrong or is there a way i can flash the keypad? i'm not a newbie, just don't know how to resolve it. any help would be great. thanks
you can take samsung keyboard from other roms
you need these files:
/system/app/AXT9IME.apk
/system/lib/libDHWR.so & libxt9core.so
/system/T9DB (folder) T9DB on some rom exist and some not take it if it is there
take those files from another rom and copy to the relevant directories you will have samsung keyboard

[Q] Porting MIUI Browser to non-MIUI ROM?

Hello all,
I have been using MIUI on my SGS for months now and now planning to move to a new non-MIUI rom.
I would however love to port the Browser.apk (maybe the music app too) from my current installation to the new rom.
I know from experience it isn't just a simple case of copying the browser.apk to sdcard and install it later on (application is not installed error).
Can anybody advise how I would do this?
Many Thanks,
Andy
I haven't tried it, however a system app must be placed in system/app it can't be slapped just anywhere. You will need to paste it, change permissions, then install. And probably also need to reboot.
Can someone share the apk?
I attached the Browser.apk. First make a backup of your old Browser.apk (just rename it to "Browser.apk.bak"), then put the new Browser.apk inside the /system/app folder. Change permissions to 644 (rw-,r--,r-- in RootExplorer) and reboot. Please let me know if it worked... Thanks!
(Application taken from 1.12.23 MIUI.)
Edit: After five minutes of reflection, i decided that there's just a minimal chance that this .apk works on deodexed non-CM-based ROMs - on odexed systems there's of course no chance!
Ok m8, just tried this procedure and didn't work. When i try to execute automatically FC.
I have an Huawei Ideos X5 (U8800) with the latest official 2.3 release.
Didnt worked for me on sgs2. Got fc

Name of keyboard in system/app

Hi i just wanted to know if anyone knows the name of the samsung keyboard in system/apps.
I wanted to replace it with the older keyboard that the SGN first came with.
I would really appreciate it if someone could give me the keyboard apk from the older samsung rom. The one with no numbers on top and bigger buttons.
Thanks.
Also does anyone know how to open a tar file on windows to add and remove apk's ???
AxT9IME.apk is the name of the stock keyboard.
I do not have the stock keyboard as i run a custom ICS ROM on it, You can have the stock ICS keyboard if you wish ? But i dont think its what you're looking for, However you could download a stock SGN ROM (GB ?) and extract it, I think its named LatinIME.apk in older Samsung GB ROMs
Also, Its not possible to open the contents of a .tar file on windows, Inside that .tar is files only recognised by ODIN and Linux machines (or emulators)
You can just remove apps with titanium backup, or freeze them (which is ideal if they are system apps) until you know they are safe to remove, A list of safe to remove apps can be found here, https://spreadsheets.google.com/spr...1gdDJRekl4QmkyNmIzUmRvX2h3UDVkQXc&output=html

Thanks for your help, much appreciated.
Do you know how can you add apps to a stock ROM downloaded from the internet??
if you have the rom and its a cwm flashable version you can just use 7zip to add remove parts of the rom and then flash it.
its called being a 7zip jockey there's a lot of them on xda lol
