[Mini Pro][SK17] Hardware Keyboard FIX - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

since there is no separate device subforum i am posting this here as the device shares same kernel sources as other Xperia 2011 devices (also the chipset is the same Qualcomm MSM8255) [once the device gets its own sub-forums this will be shifted there]
some of users seem to be facing problems when using firmware of different region on ur Mini Pro, as the keyboard layout is getting changed...
so here is a fix for that...
thanks to easycure1974 for helping out with testing! and D4rKn3sSyS for helping me with identifying files & KB layout codes
thanks to easycure1974 for ur generous donation!
[ requirements ]
Rooted Xperia Mini Pro
Busybox installed
working adb or terminal emulator app
[ how to ]
commands to be executed in adb shell or terminal emulator
enter in superuser mode
Code:
su
mount system as RW:
Code:
busybox mount -o remount,rw /system
take backup of the file [warning ONLY RUN THIS ONCE]
Code:
busybox cp /system/usr/keyboard-config/keyprint.xml /system/usr/keyboard-config/keyprint.xml.backup
following is a list of available keyboard layouts:
Code:
qwertz
qwerty-en
azerty
qwerty-br
qwerty-no-dk
qwerty-se-fi
latin-on-arabic
latin-on-arabic-azerty
latin-on-bopomofo
latin-on-cyrillic
latin-on-greek
latin-on-hebrew
latin-on-korean
latin-on-pinyin
latin-on-thai
now make note of the version u need...
now change to ur keyboard region (replace YOURREGIONLANG with the single code from above)
Code:
busybox sed -i 's/qwerty-en/YOURREGIONLANG/g' /system/usr/keyboard-config/keyprint.xml
e.g.: if u want to change the KB layout to Swedish then u need to execute the following:
busybox sed -i 's/qwerty-en/qwerty-se-fi/g' /system/usr/keyboard-config/keyprint.xml
and now reboot!
thats it enjoy ur original HW KB layout!

Oh, you are fast and effective, I'll try as soon as possible
As I was more careful and asked this before any modification , where and how can i check which is my original layout exactly (that I can re-set following rooting with your method)?
I'm not sure where my native keyboard layout fits into...

btw, if you guys tell me what's on ro.product.model, maybe I can mod a little ROM Manager, so you can change Layout with it
EDIT: It's higly possible that ro.product.model returns SK17i, so ill ask to Slade for release an version that can also change layout for this device, anyway, if some user with mini pro can tell me what it's on that line, please PM!.

Maybe the file permissions for the keyprint.xml file are not set properly.
You must have o:rw, g:r and a:r granted access.
The changes didn't take effect on my mini pro until I applied these grants to the file.

Thank you for the tip. I checked it and it with Root Explorer and it was set as RW; R; R. Still does not work though

Hi, this is my issue :
I'm french and i've bought xperia mini pro. It was in .335 full french and when i'm using Android Terminal, a "a" give me one, a "z" give me one, a "w" give me one .... my physical AZERTY keyboard is working full.
I unlocked my bootloader, flashed my SK17i with .368, and flashed with DommLord rooted Kernel ... all seemed to be good ... i modified the keyprint.xml file to get my physical keyboard fully working in AZERTY ! It works for all (E-mail, SMS, google search, web, ...) but when i'm using Android Terminal or Better Terminal Emulator, my physical AZERTY keyboard becomes a QWERTY one !!! WHY ???
Please, tell me what to do ?
Is someone has got the azerty.kl file which i should need ? Is there a way for me ?

Thanks for your quick answer.
But what you mean about app settings ? There is no choice in Antroid Terminal to choose the keyboard layout ...
I think the problem is in relation with keylayout located in /system/usr/keylayout
In this directory, there is no file named azerty.kl, just a qwerty.kl and others ...
Could you make a try yourself in configuring your SK17i in french for seing the comportment of Android Terminal Emulator ? ...
An idea ?

Details:
I am no longer continuing this project. Any issues refer to the bottom of this as I've tried to post the most common or read through thread.
Installing:
You need to install xRecovery, then extract the folder named "Eminence v1.2" to /sdcard/xrecovery/backup, then reboot into xRecovery and use the Restore option to install the ROM to your phone.
You can find a more detailed guide by hellsrage619 HERE

Change Log:
Not changed a great deal really, modified for the new update, changed the button press, new animations, JIT enabled, removed the recovery menu. I've not made the background so dark so it stands out a bit more and changed the bootscreen, also cleaned up the dialler buttons.
Included
3.D Gallery, BusyBox, FileManager, Gauge Battery Widget [free], HTC ime [Themed], LauncherPro, Linpack, Signal Strength Widget, Superuser, Tajm, Titanium Backup [Free Version], xRecovery, Rooted

PLEASE READ
You are free to use 99.9% for whatever you wish, HOWEVER, I created the lockscreen, I've used it in my themes, now this, and it's a feature, a signature if you like, of my work, which I don't wish to see used in other themes/ROMS, ESPECIALLY which are for the X10, and I don't think that's an unfair request, PLUS, if you are going to create something for the community, try and put your own stamp on it.
If you get a md5 "mismatch" error, smartgardens has posted a solution HERE. Or some have said renaming the folder, for example, "Eminence v1.2" to Eminence_v1.2" works also.
If you've not already used zdzihu's ROM and flashtool files to update to 2.0.2.A.0.24 then you need to update the Baseband as well. Doesn't matter if you don't, but as we all like to be upto date you might as well...
zdzihu said:
You need xRecovery to flash rooted system (and system only) image.
Then you need X10 flasher to flash all remaining parts (SIN files = kernel, baseband etc)

Ok first post - it doesn't look like anyone's solved this on here yet, so I registered to explain my experience;
Basically I didn't want to go without Timescape as I actually find it useful, so I tried to reinstall it (installing the Timescape* apks from my backup of /system/apps I made before putting the firmware on), however everytime I tried to log in I got the same error as above stating that my login details were incorrect!
After much frustration and searching for the reason, I finally found it - the uWlopProvider.apk had been removed. It's this apk that Timescape/Mediascape use to communicate with facebook/twitter, and without it they keep chucking up the incorrect username/password / authentication error messages (it would have saved me a LOT of time if they had simply said they could not communicate with the servers, but oh well...).
So, the solution to this problem is to get ahold of the uWlopProvider.apk file, either from the link in the first post (re getting removed apps) or restore the firmware and copy it from that, then reflash - then once you have the apk, install it with adb.
For reference - these are the commands I used to install Timescape back on (inc uWlopProvider.apk) - note you need adb installed on your pc and usb debugging turned on; (note the files you are installing from need to be in /sdcard/apps if you are copying/pasting below)
Code:
adb shell mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock2 /system
adb shell dd if=/sdcard/apps/TimescapeLargeUI.apk of=/system/app/TimescapeLargeUI.apk
adb shell dd if=/sdcard/apps/TimescapeLargeUIThemeBlue.apk of=/system/app/TimescapeLargeUIThemeBlue.apk
adb shell dd if=/sdcard/apps/TimescapeLargeUIThemeGreen.apk of=/system/app/TimescapeLargeUIThemeGreen.apk
adb shell dd if=/sdcard/apps/TimescapeLargeUIThemeIndigo.apk of=/system/app/TimescapeLargeUIThemeIndigo.apk
adb shell dd if=/sdcard/apps/TimescapeLargeUIThemeOrange.apk of=/system/app/TimescapeLargeUIThemeOrange.apk
adb shell dd if=/sdcard/apps/TimescapeLargeUIThemeSakura.apk of=/system/app/TimescapeLargeUIThemeSakura.apk
adb shell dd if=/sdcard/apps/TimescapePluginManager.apk of=/system/app/TimescapePluginManager.apk
adb shell dd if=/sdcard/apps/TimescapeProvider.apk of=/system/app/TimescapeProvider.apk
adb shell dd if=/sdcard/apps/uWlopProvider.apk of=/system/app/uWlopProvider.apk
adb shell chmod 644 /system/app/Timescape*
adb shell chmod 644 /system/app/uWlopProvider.apk
adb shell reboot
And that's it - once the phone reboots Timescape should work. If you only want Mediascape to sync with fb/twitter and don't want Timescape back, then just do the dd and chmod on the uWlopProvider file above, not the Timescape ones (obviously!).
Hope that helps!

Congratulations XperiaX10iUser, I've always loved your themes and this is a beautifully themed ROM, I'll start to recommend this rom for the guys that ask for stock based ROM's in my own theme thread...
Just for you guys to know even though it's stated as JIT enabled I ran Linpack and was only getting around 6.45 MFLOPS.
Having enabled JIT via Terminal Emulator am now getting 17.638 MFLOPS

Strange, having run the customiser and the optimiser I've got a similar score with Linpack to you, so seems like they haven't enabled it for me. Can you post the emulator command to see if that makes any difference?

Awesome idea, would help the new ones a lot
What also would be nice is, if the user can check/uncheck stuff he wants. This way also new users could try out which features give them the best perfomance on their devices.
nice idea...

I can imagine that the new app itself could be the first step for some other automate apps. I suggest to make it open source.
Or, if that is not an option, please allow it to add some kind of plugin that could be added by other developers. Like adding some other function.
I am no big developer, but I think that could be usefull for them
the [add_text] function should be avaiable to select where to add the text, instead of adding it on the end.
alow me to suggest a [search_and_replace] function.
That would be really usefull!
As an exmple, I imagine it to replace the following line in this file usr\keyboard-config\keyprint.xml:
<script name="latin" keylayout="qwertz"/>
to
<script name="latin" keylayout="qwerty-br"/>
Thats something I always need to do in downloaded stock roms. I dont think that specific change could be done with any other function.
Thanks.
EDIT: ooops. just found the [replace_text] function. just make sure it will accept multi-line text search and replace.
maybe a [delete_line] also?
as an example:
[delete_line] {ro.product.multi_touch_enabled=true}

Yes, I'm not one despective guy mate XD, and one goal is that the devs can make your own scripts, the program go to see all sub-folder like one plugin and all the dev's can make they own need stuff. I know that the is the first version, but i can add more commands and functions for have one nice tool for all people.
[delete_line] may be but can use [replace_text] {ro.product.multi_touch_enabled=true}{}

[Q] EFS Backup

I am trying (as recommended) to make an EFS backup of my phone.
I have tried EFS Backup Pro but the version of busybox I have (the one from Play Google: 1.21.0) seem to have an applet missing: readlink.
They ask to downgrade to version 1.20.2 but so far I could not find the APK to do that
How can I downgrade busybox ?
I have also tried the tuto for the GS3 i9305 using QPST but when I dial *#7284# I don't get the Menu "Phone util" so I assume this procedure doesn't work for the Galaxy mega ?
Has anybody managed to save the EFS on the mega ??? If yes how ??
Thanks in advance.

For this we must have root:
I have already a backup efs.img from i9205 made like this THREAD but changed the partition efs to 10 (see the screenshot). This command:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p10 of=/storage/extSdCard/efs.img bs=4096
If I have some efs issue I will try the restore of it. (I'm not sure if this work. Take care, the responsibility is Your's)
PS: For i9200 You must see if the partition efs is the 10 also.
,
Ok, thanks for your fast answer.
My phone is also a I9205, so I'll try.Anyway there is no risk as long as we don't restore the backup.
Dont know if this will work but if you have root, install root explorer and just copy your efs folder to an ext SD card?
or am i thinking too simple about this?

Yes, I confirm this work. I restored the efs twice whit Root Explorer on Galaxy Tab 7" P1000 and one on Note 10.1 N8000.
But we must verify the permissions, I compared whit another device. Can be some issues whit.
I had a look with root explorer and there is nothing after the permissions (rwxrwx) , no -> and no file name.
This is valid for all the directories in the root directories.
By the way the name I don't have the same directories as you ??
How did you get that ? Which file explorer ??
Root Explorer, now 2.21.1 version from Speed Software. On top we must put on R/W to see or change permissions.
For exemple: long touch on efs folder, on next window we have permissions. Touch on permissions, we see it on a new little window.
We can verify, change... or ok/cancel.
I am using Root explorer 3.and this is what I can see:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

Doesn' really look like what you get !!

Good, is the new version 3 and You are already on r/w. Now make this:
Long touch on efs folder until you have a new window whit many options (attach1), also permissions (Permissões in Portuguese).
Touch on permissions, we see it on a new little window (attach2). This mean rwxrwx--x = 7,7,1 (my case).
Your is rwxrwxrwx = 7,7,7
(r=Leitura, w=Gravação, x=Executar)
We can verify, change... or ok/cancel.
See attachs:
PS: On version 3 You can mark efs at right and touch on menu. Is same.
Valente
Yes, I have done that already and changed the last part of the permission to rwx (was--x) as you can see in may capture.
But still no indication like yours: -> mmcblk0p10 !!
And as you can see also my root directory is different from yours????
Tilagoon said:

Because I prefer the Root Explorer old version 2.21.1 and invalidate the update of it on Play Store.
Updated now to vers 3 to test to You but I returned to old version. I like it more.
Ok, I'll try with the same version as yours and see what I get.
But my concern was that the name of the directories in my capture and yours are quite different and I don't think that the other version of Root explorer wil change anything.
I have installed version 2.21.1 and I get the same thing !
But I think I have finally understood what's going on: your first capture is not the capture of the Root directory as what we see are not sub-directories but files !!
Can you tell me the path to get that ??

I must be stupid but I can' get what I want which is show in the attachment below.
I have all the steps: mount R/W, long touch on EFS, then I get the options menu and if I go in permissions I can change them but when I say OK I return to the contents of the root directory.
I have tried to change the permissions but no way. I really don't see what more can be done to get this information.
I think I'll give up and will no longer bother you.
Any way thank you very much for your help and having be so patient.

Take care, is not there, this is not the root directory. Is on Your screen post 8 on root you see efs folder. Is here You must try long touch... etc, my screens post 9.
This screen in this Your post is from /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/partitions, is not the root directory, the efs here is not a folder is a partition.
PS: Attach root directory whit efs folder, not file.

[Tool][App-Modder] Sony System App Editor Ver.1.1 - {divinemamgai}

This Tool has been replaced by - Junohttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=45990300#post45990300

}
Welcome To Sony System App Editor Ver.1.1​Installation
Please follow the instructions carefully, cause this is very crucial to the programs working.​
Step 1
Download the following resources :​
Android SDK (drawPatch9)
Java SE Runtime Environment 7 (Java)
Step 2
Go to Advanced System Properties.
It should look like this:
Go to Environment Variables, then create a new System Variable, having name JAVA_HOME and value according to the path where you have installed the JRE(7).
It should look like this:
Now after creating the JAVA_HOME variable, search for Path system variable in the System Variables list. Now this is a bit tricky. Once found click on it and then on Edit. Now if your value is ending with ";" (without quotes) then just add the path to your JRE(7) bin folder. If the ";" is not present then just add it and follow the rest of instruction as given.
It should look like this:
Now just Save it. (Just keep on clicking OK it will be done automatically.)
Step 3
Download Ver.1.1.zip.
[*] Download
[*] Size: 17.85 MB (18714229 bytes)
Now Extract the zip where ever you want in your computer.
Step 4
Open the folder in which you have extracted the files and then the res directory in it.
Now make sure that the folder looks like this -
If you want you can add your modified resource files too.​Note: If you are using any other ROM or PHONE of Sony (This program might be compatible with all types of Phones and Roms though!), then you should over-write the already present resource files in the res directory with your own ROM or PHONE resource files. (This is important!)
Now open the program by executing - Sony System App Editor.bat, like this -
Then type LOADRESOURCES, and let the program install the required resources. Once done add your APK file to this program's directory and get started, cause you are all done!
It should look like this:
How to use?
Step 1
Make sure you have the original version of the system apk. (This is important cause in other situations I cannot guarantee it's working as I haven't tested it. ) Copy it to the program's main directory.
Now open the Program by executing - Sony System App Editor.bat, and type only the name of the System app.
For eg.: If you want to edit UxpNxtLockScreen.apk, then copy it to the main directory, and then by executing the program type UxpNxtLockScreen. (Notice no .apk!)​
Now press Enter and let the program handle the rest.
Still it should look like this:
Now check for any errors in the Apktool output screen, if none found you are good to go or else I don't know what to do?...p)
If everything went fine it should look like this -
Step 2
Edit your APK to your carnal needs! But still make sure everything you do is syntactically correct and there are no erroneous codes.
For editing APK's go to the working folder of the program, and look for the folder that is named after the file-name of your System Apk.
It should look like this:
​
Now open it and start editing.
Step 3
Now assuming you have finished editing the System app, execute the main program once again - Sony System App Editor.bat.
Type the APK's file-name (no exts.) which you where editing, and press enter.
It should look like this:
Make sure everything goes right and check for any errors in the APKTOOL output screen, cause program at the current stage will still produce a build even if there is any error with apktool! (Will be solved soon.)
Now assuming you have checked everything and nothing is wrong, then you are good to go! And still it should look like this -
Step 4
Assuming that everything has been fine till now, so then you can have your APK file in the build folder of the Program's main directory.
It should look like this:
​
Now copy it to a place where you can create a flash-able zip out of it! :laugh:
Note: If you want to start modification of the new apk file of the same name, first delete the folder in the working directory of the previous APK's file-name. (It's important.)
Condition of it's use
Please use this program at your own risk. It has only been tested to mod UxpNxtLockScreen.apk.
This program utilizes a technique that I learned while creating my first mods, and was not able to find a perfect tutorial.
The technique this program utilizes might not be applicable for all types of System Apps.
The program is just created by me today (23/9/13), so please bear with it's simple and non-wanting UI and features.
So start using it and start modding today! - Become a World-Class Developer! (.........:laugh:...............:laugh:........)
Download Ver.1.1​Please wait till this program is completely face-lifted!​Credits
Apktool developer for developing such a great tool.
Google for making such a wonderful OS!
Me for making it's modification so simple! (divinemamgai)
This Tool is gonna suffer from Face-Change! So please co-operate.

Hello
yes it must be root
it is up to you to modify the images.
we can use it without root by decompiling the bootloader and putting the param.bin at the root of the tool then decompiler with the tool, made your modifications and recompile. take the new param. bin recompile the bootloader and flasher with odin
(but I'm not sure that knox is not triggered)

our /param block device is sda7 at /dev/block/sda7. looking in platform folder it symlinks back to /dev/block/sda7
