I was trying to patch the low-res HTC_IME to work with ICS (on HTC Legend), but I am stuck..
I must say that I am a complete n00b on programming/coding, but I thought I'd give it a shot with the help of some tutorials (as this is supposed to be a rather simple modification
I decompiled my themed HTC_IME_lo.apk and all looks okay. All files seem to be there, with all subfolders and smali files.
I found the mentioned com.htc.android.htcime.ui.CandidateView.draw and changed the value to EMTPY_STATE_SET and saved the file.
Allright, now I need to recompile all these files. I got myself a new classes.dex, replaced the old one in the apk with the new one. At first try, it would not install, forgot to sign the apk
, but after that it installed without any error.
Then I switched to the HTC_IME mod.. tried to write a message, but before the keyboard popped up... bam! force closed.
Can someone give a hint? I can attach the decompiled apk with the edited smali so someone else creates the new apk? I am sort of on the limits of my skills already
Attachment: this is the file package I got from the MIUI section (not using that framework ofcourse) and used to perform the above actions.
