NotesMobile working on Mediapad - Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard

The mediapad is a very under-appreciated device. I considered waiting for the Nexus 7 before deciding on a mediapad. Apart from the CPU, specs are similar and it has rear camera, microsd and 3G. Sure beats N7 anytime in my book.
Anyway, I also own a GNote, and felt that mediapad lacks a good note taking app.
I was reading the NotesMobile app thread on GNote forums, and decided to try it on the mediapad.
I'm very happy to say that it is working wonderfully with v1.1.24 of the app.

Instructions: (thanks to dionysos77 and CaptainHakan)
Unzip the zip
you will see two folders "META-INF" and "system", forget about "META-INF"
in the "system" there are two folders "app" and "lib"
in "app" there is one .apk , copy it into N7000's "/system/app" by using "root explorer"
reboot the device.
Do NOT run, NotesMobile yet.
go to folder "lib" , there are 3 files in it, copy them into "/system/lib" again by using "root explorer"
reboot device again.
Download language packs (first post of this thread)
Install your prefered language .apk's.
Run NotesMobile.

What permissions should I set for these system files?

apparently did not work on latest CM10.2

Wii Controller on Stock Rom ?

I know it works on Vegan (and apparently not TnT), but what about stock? Everything works except enabling WiiController IME.
Yes, I believe I remember it working when I first got the device.
So you mention that TnT Lite doesn't support the Wiimote? That's a burn. Where did u read it? I've been trying to make it work for the past 3 days... argh
Not sure if it makes a difference, but I'm using TnT Lite 4.4.0 and I had trouble installing the WiiController IME as well.
The solution that worked for me was posted somewhere around the boards, maybe in the WiimoteController thread [ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=672884 ]. It was to use an app like RootExplorer to change the permission and then copy the .apk into the /system/apps folder.
*edit* To be more specific, copy the .apk from the /data/apps folder to the /system/apps folder. And remember to reboot the device for it to show up.

Maybe it's because I'm using TNT-Enhanced (instead of TNT-Lite) but WiimoteController still crashes running from the system/app folder.

[Q] XTRSense 5.01 Questions

This is a question for Zach, but as a new user I did not have access to his thread. First, congratulations on developing a great ROM. You do great work, I love XTRSense 5.01. However, I have come across two small glitches, both related to your GScript app.
After running the Apps2SD script, all of the other scripts disappear. There is a note to find them on the SD card, but I haven't been able to find any scripts there. I specifically want to install the battery life script. Is there a way to recover access to the scripts?
Second, I accidentally ran the script that deleted HTC Teeter. Is there any way to get it back short of reinstalling the ROM?
Thanks in advance ...

Hi! Just to note, I'm not currently running xtrSENSE or xtrROM, but I have quite a lot in the past and probably will again someday, so I thought I'd answer what I can.
1. I don't know what's going on with scripts disappearing, are you sure you actually added them to GScript's list of available scripts? When you load GScript, initially it's blank, and you have to tell it to load each script individually. Make sure the checkbox for run as root is checked for each one. Then the first time you run one from the main GScript screen, it'll prompt you for SU access. Sorry if I'm including info you already know, just making this answer friendly for anyone who happens to find this thread. There should be a folder called gscript on the SD card.
Note: Different folder listing programs list files and folders in different sorting orders. Linux is case sensitive so you can have both a folder named gscripts and one called GScripts (only the first should exist, I'm just using it as example). What I'm getting at is that some programs list all the files and folders with starting with the lower-case letters first, and then the upper-case ones after, so if you look for the folder gscript, make sure and search everywhere in the listing.
Also, if you must, you can open the ROM zip file on your computer and look in the sdcard folder in it and you'll see the gscript folder there with all the scripts inside. Just copy the gscript folder to your SD card if they got deleted somehow.
2. Same as the last suggestion, you can open the ROM zip file on your computer and in the system\app folder there you'll find "teeter.apk". You can use Root Explorer off the Android Market to put that back in system\app, or you could just install it from your file manager (Astro, File Manager...) for it to reside in normal user memory.
Partial Success
"Also, if you must, you can open the ROM zip file on your computer and look in the sdcard folder in it and you'll see the gscript folder there with all the scripts inside. Just copy the gscript folder to your SD card if they got deleted somehow."
This worked perfectly. The GScript folder on the SD card was empty. Not anymore, and the scripts work fine.

I put teeter.apk on the SD card, but my attempts to intall it with ES File Manager failed. Maybe related to Apps2SD?

You don't want it on the SD card. You need to navigate to /system/app in internal storage on the ROM. Apps2sd moves third party apps that you install from the market to the SD card, but does not move the internal apps in /system/app.
You may need to restart after you pop that .apk back in /system/app to get it back in your app drawer.

Amaze: Getting HQ-Camera and Gallery to Work Together in NonSense Roms

Hi All,
First off, I apologize if this has been covered in another thread. I've done a lot of searching for the answer to this and never found it.
I use CraigTut's Jellybean Fusion along with Faux's kernel as my daily driver, but I prefer the HQCamera and the HTC Gallery to the installed camera/Gallery combo (AOSP I think ???). But when I installed HQCamera, the rom retained the AOSP gallery and the camera and gallery didn't work well together, so for example I couldn't open the gallery by tapping the gallery icon in the camera screen. Finally, I prefered the sense gallery as it is two columns in width.
To solve this I found the following workaround. Sorry it's newbish but I don't know how to mod the flashable zip file yet and didn't need to for this exercise. Likewise, if there is another easier way, please feel free to post it.
1) (This step is to get the files are in the attachment HtcAlbumAPKs.zip) I already had the Stocked Amaze Deodexed rom on my computer and I extracted all files to a new folder. Most (if not all) other stock roms will work.
2) (The following files are in the attachment HtcAlbumAPKs.zip) Navigate to \system\app in the Stocked Amaze Deodexed rom and copied two files out of it a) HtcAlbumMapView.apk and b) HTCAlbumTMO.apk.
3) Extract HtcAlbumMapView.apk and HTCAlbumTMO.apk from the attached zip, HtcAlbumAPKs.zip, and place in your sdcard
4) Place HQ-Camera in the same place.
5) Using root explorer navigate to \system\app and delete the camera and gallery apks.
6) Using root explorer go to your sd card and copy HtcAlbumMapView.apk and HTCAlbumTMO.apk (menu, multi-select, tap two file names, copy)
7) Navigate to \system\app and paste the two files
8) Change permissions for each of the two files to match the other files in that folder. Using root explorer push down on file name until the menu popps up, select permissions and check only the following: the three in the left (read) column and the top one in the center (write) column. Uncheck any others that are checked and tap ok.
9) Boot into recovery and install attached HQ Camera from its location on your sdcard.
10) Wipe Cache + Dalvik Cache
11) Reboot and the HQ camera and gallery should be playing nice!
This works well for me on JB Fusion.
Cheers!

I put together some sought after system apk's left out kfhd but are on android os

This is all of the usable system apk files i could find that come on android but were left out of the kd2,kfhd7,kfhd9. All file's were pulled from my optimus v running on thekravens cold as ice android4.0.4.
i gave all apks a quick run down, they all work but beyond that...
here's the files and what they are/do
*Trebuchet android system launcher- don't look so good on kfhd but it works
*HoloSpiralWallpaper- for built in wallpapers
*GalleryGoogle- can replace the built in and i believe relatively useless kfhd picture viewer, it also can apply any picture as a wallpaper just like on reg android, can be used to watch videos
*Android system Browser-good browser if your looking to replace silk or maybe a standby. Once installed reboot kfhd or will have connection error
*LiveWallpapersPicker- Install Live Wallpapers from the Google Market, or Sideload them
how to install
I used jrummys root browser lite to unzip, move n give proper permissions to all files.
1) download kfhd android apks.zip from below. (I download mine directly)
2) unzip the packaged files
3) Make sure you have root access.
4) Install a application to manage files with root access
5) Go into your system/App folder, and move the all the apk's you decide you'd like to use, to this folder.
6) Change permissions to all apks you decided to place in system/app folder to rw-r-r.
7) N reboot and all should be fuctional
***be sure to watch your step inside of the system folder, you could do some damage***

[GUIDE] Integrating apps to system manually

Since PA Gapps doesn't have any more support I've been trying my self to integrate the Gapps updates into system partition, and with Android 5.x i found it's easy because in previous versions the libraries had to be integrated but they were in separate directories, now the apk and the libraries are in the same directory, so it's just question of moving the whole directory to the system partition, reboot and voiala! In my case I use Root Explorer, just use the one you want, hope this helps out the ones with the same problem and sadness of no more PA Gapps.
Here the steps:
1. Locate your user app/update at data/app
2. It should appear as com.example.app folder
3. Highlight it and select "Move"
4. Now put in system/app
5. Reboot
Note 1: At step 3 you must move the whole folder and not just the apk
Note 2: I found that some AOSP Apps are in system/priv-app, like the Keyboard, so, for avoiding troubles, if you replace an AOSP app move it to his corresponding AOSP directory
Note 3: Also, you can de-bloat your ROM by deleting Apps (whole directory) with a root explorer, if you want to find an app PM me or ask what a apk is for before deleting it
This is my first post, if I made a mistake please tell me and sorry if I have bad english.
