darth I flashed neutronscotts original rom. Before you released any of your own. I then attempted to free up the star/Favorites key, to use it for other things, e.g. voice access.

                    Hi1 Just swap those out for the ones in system/usr/keylayout. This can be done if you have root access with rw or through the custom recovery.

                      darth Thank you.
                      Still not working though...

                        darth

                        Thanks this worked!

                        I noticed after I used the neutron.img, my keyboard app is now called 12Key-Keyboard, is there a way to get the original T9 keyboard app and set that as the default keyboard?

                        Also, I installed the vMouse2. One thing I haven't been able to figure out how to do is "Swipe Up", when I receive calls on WhatsApp, it says I need to swipe up in order to answer.

                        Thanks in advance 🙂

                          Is there a way to change one of the apps on the home launcher (I removed the browser so now I have a empty space)?
                          I unpacked the apk Launcher3 and found the xml file that lists the packages to display, I changed it and repacked, but installing it isn't working. I also tried to replace Launcher3.apk in system/priv-app/Launcher3 using FX with root r/w but it wouldn't copy. I don't really know what I'm doing, any help?

                              Used adb shell monkey -p com.jasonkung.launcher3 1 to launch my launcher (launcher<3) and used scrcpy.

                                      XanderXF Im trying to do the same thing, so far all ive done is just changed the apps package name to the one I deleted or one of the extra ones in the arrays.xml. Can you send me the stock launcher3 from your phone [Login to see the link]? (Im using the Tracfone variant and I just want to see if there are differences)

                                      sdmde Can you explain? I have pulled launcher3, uninstalled the system/priv-app/launcher3 and am currently running my stock launcher3 as a data/app. It works fine after being installed as a data app. I am trying to just change icons located in res/drawable-mdpi/ , I have a new icon with the same resolution and same name and I replaced the original icon png. But when i build and install the apk it just crashes...

                                              darth ok i think the issue is the TracFone variant is just more sensitive because Biden can mod it but i think hes using cricket. so get that version of launcher but techy is using a dif launcher all together

                                                  sdmde never mind i did it

                                                    darth m trying to do the same thing, so far all ive done is just changed the apps package name to the one I deleted or one of the extra ones in the arrays.xml

                                                    Did that work? What's easiest way to change the package name?
                                                    I also uninstalled stock Launcher3, then was able to install my edited version but it kept crashing

                                                      I've been working with [Login to see the link] and [Login to see the link] and we made a program that automatically boots your phone to fastboot (I did the easy part, its mainly their work). Just make sure you have mtk drivers.
                                                      Instructions:

                                                      2. Open it, and plug in your phone

                                                        techy im still not sure why the matrix file worked. And i still cant get the mtk file to work.
                                                        [Login to see the link] how can i use the chmod command that you've referenced?

                                                          lgexalter1 I was wondering about that too, however, it says 0 by The Matrix file too and that one worked so I assumed it was nothing.

                                                          Regardless, what do you think is the issue?
