[DEV Request] Restore hyperlinked data option on One V

---

I saw this article at Android Central and looked at my build.prop but didn't see the lines needed to restore the functionality. I then looked up the XDA thread where this work-around was discovered and noticed that I don't have htclinkifydispatcher.apk in system/apps. Perhaps we don't have this functionality. Can we get it?

How to restore the functionality the Apple v HTC war has taken away [root]

Only U.S. bound handsets have HTC linkify, it is a patent workaround for the hyperlink issue. You do not need to get rid of it because you don't have it.

If you want to experiment with what the workaround looks like, push the apk to system, change permissions, and add or edit the applicable build prop lines. I highly suggest a cwm backup before doing that.

I can confirm that Canada HTC One V (at least on Koodo) also do not have HTC Linkify, and links work perfectly.

Yea, I got to play with a Bell One V and I can confirm it does not have HTC linkify either. I read on one of the tech blogs that only U.S.A released phones on ics, or upgraded to ics have it, in other words, all sense 3.6 and 4.0 phones (once again, U.S.A only). I also have played with a Telus One S and a Rogers One X and no linkify on those either.

The One V has yet to see a U.S release so no One V models anywhere should have it.

I think it might be fun to get it working (if that was the o.p's intent) just to see how much it sucks compared to the functionality I have had on all my pda / wimno / android phones for as long as I can remember. Then again, in the U.S. Apple was just granted a general design patent that covers any clamshell laptop type design in which the side profile is slightly wedge shaped. As far as I can tell, two of my three laptops, (one is a netbook), and the transformer prime violate that new patent. Before anyone says I have too many toys, Family of six and not all the toys are mine!

Now to get back to convincing my Wife to let me buy the One V so my 14 year old son (the one with the transformer prime) can inherit my desire!
