Default [APP] *Genius Button for CM7*

For those people that enjoy the use of the Genius button and Dragon Dictation.

This is the Genius button app that came stock with the MT4G/Glacier put into a flashable zip. It was taken from the stock MySense Rom and has been confirmed working on CM7 nightly #5+ at the time of this post. It also includes the app called Button Shortcut (free on market). It can be used to open any app using the Genius Button. It should also work on HTC Froyo Roms too. Much thanks to the CM team for making CM Roms compatable with these apps.

This needs to be flashed/installed from ClockworkMod Recovery. Install it just
like you would flash a rom. You should not need to wipe anything first.

So just flash the file and it will automatically work with the button or is it just the app itself?

You want to flash it just like you would a rom. It will only add the apps not configure the button.

But I will be including the app called "Button Shortcut" (free in the market) in the zip but I haven't had a chance to put it in there yet. Probably will later tonight if I get time. For now you can just download it from the market. Just install it and have it open Genius on the longpress of the search button (our genius button) that us as close as you can get to the original function but its better cause you get text search on normal press and Genius on longpress.

It opened Car Home fine for me but I have reverted back to stock and the app on stock is a little different. It is called car dock and it seems to possably be intertwined with HTC Sense. I am checking it out and will get back to you.
