[MOD] (ICS) Remove select input notification

[ieatacid]

This will remove the "Select input method" notification and the keyboard icon that's placed on the status bar.

Update zip is attached, but here's a guide on how to do it:

Follow my guide here for specifics on pulling files and decompiling/compiling.

In services.jar open com\android\server\InputMethodManagerService.smali

In setImeWindowStatus comment out line 8866

    # if-eq v12, v0, :cond_3a

Save, compile, push to device.

--------------------------------------------------------------

This also makes the setImeWindowStatus function in InputMethodManagerService output this line to logcat

W/InputManagerService(  495): Ignoring setImeWindowStatus of uid 10084 token: [email protected]

As far as I can tell (did a lot of testing), this only ever gets called when you bring up the keyboard and it tries to display the "select input method" notification.

If you want to be on the safe side, do a nandroid backup or backup services.jar.

Enjoy!

It might. I've only tried it on RaverX3X's ROM.

Ok, i just tried flashing the zip file on racing's ics skyrocket port and it does remove the "select input notification". it doesnt seem to affect anything else so it seems safe.

Thanks for the tweak. Everything helps make these ports so much better!

I should, all of these port roms all have the same base

I will test this on HTC Sensation ARHD 6.5.5 and will report.

I just ran the zip on HTC Rezound, amon recovery, latest leaked ICS, stock, rooted and it didn't work. Let me know if there is anything I can let you know to help make it work, otherwise I'll just wait.

You have to post the original services.jar from that ROM. The one you posted is the one from my patch

 

[teckels]

services.jar

this is from the rom I flashed. Sorry to hijack your thread.

 

[ieatacid]

Here you go.

Thanks again for helping. Unfortunently no luck. I do not expect any more assistance and don't want you to waste more time unless more folks with my phone are willing to try and see if it it just my issue or the phone. Also, I'll probably jump into a new rom in a few weeks if the rezound ota comes out so I wouldn't want you to go out of your way when who knows how long I will keep this one.

Something went wrong earlier. I decompiled the one I made for you and the change wasn't in there. Try this one.
