Patch Email Change Default Font for Replies-Forwards from Navy to Black

2009-11-15T06:07:39Z

Kansei: reorganized so that we don't have to find line numbers each time there's an update to the OS.

{{template:patch}}

By default, replies and forwards in the Mail app use a navy blue font colour. This is easily remedied by a single edit.

==Procedure==
[[Portal:Accessing_Linux|Access Linux]], and then issue the following commands:

Switch to the root user before beginning:
sudo su
You will be prompted for your user password.

Mount root read/write with:
mount -o remount,rw /

Edit the Email.js file:
vi /usr/palm/applications/com.palm.app.email/app/models/Email.js

Once the file is open in vi, type
/navy
and press return. This will search the file for the occurrence of the word "navy". Enter insert mode by pressing the "i" key and change the word "navy" to "black".

Press Escape to exit insert mode, then write and quit the file with
:wq
followed by pressing return. Don't forget to remount root read only with:
mount -o remount,ro /

Patch Email Change Default Font for Replies-Forwards from Navy to Black

2009-11-15T05:57:35Z

Kansei: Updated for webOS 1.3.1

{{template:patch}}
It bothered me how all my replies/forwards showed up in navy blue font, so I figured out a way to make the font black. The fix is pretty easy actually.

Access Linux, and then edit the following file:
/usr/palm/applications/com.palm.app.email/app/models/Email.js

==webOS 1.3.1==
Change the word "navy" on '''line 492''' to "black"

==webOS 1.2.0==

Change the word "navy" on '''line 461''' to "black"

==webOS 1.1.0==

Change the word "navy" on '''line 441''' to "black"

==webOS 1.0.3==

Change the word "navy" on '''line 423''' to "black"

Kansei: Updated for webOS 1.3.1

{{template:patch}}
This patch needs a rooted Pre to manually make these changes though a command line.

Two files need to be modified.

/usr/palm/applications/com.palm.app.screenlock/app/controllers/securityconfig-assistant.js

Uncomment lines 54,55,248-251 (291-294 on 1.3.1).

Here is what the files should look like:
<source lang=text>
Lines 54/55:
//this.controller.setupWidget('blinkAlerts', this.onOffToggleOpt, this.ledThrobberToggleModel);
//Mojo.Event.listen($('blinkAlerts'),'mojo-property-change', this.toggleLEDThrobber.bindAsEventListener(this));

Should be changed to:
this.controller.setupWidget('blinkAlerts', this.onOffToggleOpt, this.ledThrobberToggleModel);
Mojo.Event.listen($('blinkAlerts'),'mojo-property-change', this.toggleLEDThrobber.bindAsEventListener(this));
</source>

<source lang=text>
Lines 248-251 (291-294 in webOS 1.3.1):
/*if (payload.LEDThrobberEnabled != undefined) {
this.ledThrobberToggleModel.value = payload.LEDThrobberEnabled;
this.controller.modelChanged(this.ledThrobberToggleModel, this);
}*/

Should be changed to:
if (payload.LEDThrobberEnabled != undefined) {
this.ledThrobberToggleModel.value = payload.LEDThrobberEnabled;
this.controller.modelChanged(this.ledThrobberToggleModel, this);
}

</source>

/usr/palm/applications/com.palm.app.screenlock/app/views/securityconfig/securityconfig-scene.html:

Uncomment 92-97 and 101-103 (97-102 and 106-108 in webOS 1.3.1).

<source lang=text>
Lines 92-97 (97-102 in 1.3.1):


Should be changed to:
<div class="palm-row last">
<div class="palm-row-wrapper">
<div x-mojo-element="ToggleButton" id="blinkAlerts"></div>
<div class="title capitalize" x-mojo-loc=''>Blink notifications</div>
</div>
</div>

</source>

<source lang=text>
Lines 101-103 (106-108 in 1.3.1):


Should be changed to:
<div class="palm-info-text single" x-mojo-loc=''>
The gesture area blinks when new notifications arrive.
</div>
</source>

Kansei: confirmed 1.3.1 compatibility

''The old, manual setup of Optware and users can be found [[Setting_up_optware_feed | here]].''

=Automated Setup of Optware, Users and Access=
The webOS community asks that users who have obtained access to the Linux subsystem install a standard set of software to ensure everyone has the necessary tools in place to use the resources the community is providing.

In particular, this includes the Optware package manager. Palm's webOS uses the ''ipkg'' package manager internally. The community has a version of ''ipkg'' called ''ipkg-opt'' which accesses the Optware library of over 1300 Linux programs available for installation on the Pre.

Palm has indicated that they have no intention of using the /opt directory, so we direct our installs to /opt/bin rather than /bin to avoid being overwritten by future Palm software upgrades.

In addition, the standard package creates a non-root user, installs ''sudo'', and includes a SSH program (''Dropbear'') and SFTP program.

For your convenience, we've packaged all this up into a simple script.

==Optware Setup==

===Installing Optware in the Emulator?===
If you're attempting to install these packages to your emulator, you must first add sufficient space by [[Adding_Disks_to_the_Emulator|enabling a virtual disk]].

After completing the process of obtaining access to your Pre, do the following:

'''Type each line exactly as it appears. Copying and pasting is probably a good idea.'''
''' This is confirmed to work with webOS 1.3.1 '''
''Note to Windows Putty users: To paste in putty, simply right-click and the program pastes into the terminal whatever you have copied to the clipboard.''

<div style="font-size:100%;">
<source lang=bash>
cd /tmp
wget http://gitorious.org/webos-internals/bootstrap/blobs/raw/master/optware-bootstrap.sh
#Alternately you can use this tiny url http://tinyurl.com/n8q2vy
sh optware-bootstrap.sh
source /etc/profile.d/optware
</source></div>

Follow the on-screen instructions.

If you want to review the script before you run it, you can look here:

[http://gitorious.org/webos-internals/bootstrap/blobs/master/optware-bootstrap.sh http://gitorious.org/webos-internals/bootstrap/blobs/master/optware-bootstrap.sh]

Note that using the WiFi connection for the above steps is to be highly recommended over the 3G or GSM options, which are reported as sometimes failing. (Turn on aeroplane mode then turn on and connect to WiFi)

==Quilt setup==

Optionally, you can then install the ''quilt'' patch manager which allows multiple-file patches. (Yes, the pun was intentional. Quilt manages multiple patches.) This installation process has also been packaged into a simple script. It will install quilt, and all of its dependencies, and create a local clone of the WebOS-Internals patch repository. [[Applying_Patches | Applying Patches]] provides a more thorough guide on the use of quilt.

'''Again, type each line exactly as it appears. Copying and pasting is probably a good idea.'''

<div style="font-size:100%;">
<source lang=bash>
cd /tmp
wget http://gitorious.org/webos-internals/bootstrap/blobs/raw/master/quilt-bootstrap.sh
sh quilt-bootstrap.sh
</source></div>

If you want to review the script before you run it, you can look here:

[http://gitorious.org/webos-internals/bootstrap/blobs/master/quilt-bootstrap.sh http://gitorious.org/webos-internals/bootstrap/blobs/master/quilt-bootstrap.sh]

==Finishing==

To finish off, turn Developer Mode back to "Off" (which will reboot your Pre).

Once you are finished, you may SSH into your Pre with an SSH client like [http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ Putty]:
*Find your IP address on your Pre with [http://checkmyip.com/ CheckMyIP.com]
**In many cases, you are in a local network, but checkmyip.com gives you the WAN addess. Install whatismyip from the homebrew catalog to get your pre's ip address within the local network and use that
*SSH to that IP address on port 222
**If you're doing this over EVDO, there may be a lot of latency. Be patient.
**You can optionally install [[Avahi]] and SSH to <tt>castle.local.</tt>
**[[Tutorials_Linux_DDNS_for_EVDO|Dynamic DNS]] is helpful for consistently accessing the Pre over EVDO with a simple name.
*Log in with the username and password you created during the Optware installation
**Many operations cannot be carried out with the permissions of that username. You'll need to [[Basic_Linux_Use#sudo|sudo]] those operations with the new username's password

Only the default shell (/bin/ash) will work for ssh. To change your shell to bash (which will be located in /opt/bin/bash, once you've completed the quilt install procedure above), you will have to [http://www.webos-internals.org/wiki/Setup_Bash create] an /etc/shells file, and add the following lines:

/bin/ash
/bin/sh
/opt/bin/bash

Then you will be able to edit /etc/passwd and change the shell parameter for the user you created. Note that if you try to change your shell without adding an /etc/shells the SSH server (Dropbear) will look like it is rejecting your password on subsequent connections.
