Lightbulb xCyanogenMini - Gigglebread - Rotary & Dialer(s) Fixes

Hi Folks,

I have decided to post this fix as a separated thread because the gigglebread thread is growing incredibly fast and the reference to it gets lost in one or two days after being published.

When GB was at v5, I wrote this post on its thread, to offer to the community a fix that I've created to my device, because I realized that my pain could be the pain of others.

Well, that fix does not works on v8, it puts the system in a infinite boot loop. Therefore I rolled up my sleeves again to update it. And here it comes the updated version. Enjoy while it's hot.

Best Regards,
Ed.

Hi, I'm sorry for this. The explanation was on the post linked in the previous message... Here's the Quote of that post:

I've been following this particular thread since its first day (coincidentally the same day that I started using an Android phone).

The main motivation for using this rom was that to be able to replicate my corporate e-mail and calendar. In order to do that, I would have to be, at least, using Android 2.2, because the company that I work for restricts access to earlier versions because the changes on the lock screen password options that took place on v2.2.

Despite of a few minor remaining bugs, this ROM works pretty well on my device. But, there is an issue that was really pissing me off: The inability of sending DTMF tones using the digits 0*#, because of the layout of the screen. Since I have to join several conference calls per week, that is a huge show-stopper for me. Well, I'm pretty sure that the creator of this ROM is quite busy working on some serious issues (like bluetooth) and do not has the time to take a look into these cosmetic issues, that's why I decided to roll up my sleeves and work on this.

I finally went thru this, and I decided to share this fix on the forum, since I read a lot of people talking about this issue as well. Attached to this post is an update zip file, which will tweak the position of the component of those screens, in order to allow the full visualization of both dialpads (in-call & initial).

To install the fix, just copy it to your sdcard and install it via xRecovery. Please take into account that this comes with no warranty at all, is provided *AS IS*, and I don't want to be responsible should anyone damage a device, loose data, etc, trying to install this package. I only tested it on my phone (where it worked like a charm) therefore I can't guarantee that it will work on other setups as well.

If you like this fix, please click on "Thanks" and feel free to send some bucks to finance some Duvels, Karmeliets or Guiness

EDIT: I've just added a tweak to the "Rotary Selector" to keep it from being in front of the "Calling Card" when an incoming call is received. Therefore now there's 3 zip attached to this post: One that has the 2 fixes and another one for each fix. You can figure out which is which by their names, which are pretty straight forward.

Best Regards,
Ed.

Awesome fix mate. Great job. But I see *#0 missing when the on call number pad is opened. Any way to fix that?
