No, sigh.....signed apps with test keys..the Android debug standard...doesn't function on system properly. It's made for installing on data to test and debug with. We use it to our advantage. Just to keep from seeing updates isn't worth all this. What I do is hit update all in playstore then just stop the ones I don't want updated. You could use apps like titanium backup to unlink then too but I'm not sure that works always.
[Android Themes] Ibuprophen:
Thank you so much for your support and understanding!

I'll just install the apk file and not worry about updates within the Play Store.

Also, TB does unlink apps but, only temporary. The apps re-link to the Play Store after the device is restarted. I tried that TB feature and that was the result.

Besides changing the apk files signature, i haven't found a way (yet) to permanently unlink apk files from the Play Store.

Thanks again!

My note 4 was 64bit. But, was referred to using the min15 version for the note 4. Which is why I used the same, but it didn't work.

I'll try the ARM64. :good:

Thanks.
[Android Themes] Reivaj1803:
Unfortunately, ARM64 did not work I used both versions, and pretty much all the rest. They froze.:eek:

Anyone have any suggestions? :confused::mad:

[Android Themes] Thebear j koss:
Yup. Just keep using whatever the last super swiftkey worked for you and don't worry about the updates. Just ignore them. If the update is more important, uninstall suoer swiftkey and just use stock.

All common sense is gone. All that is left is stupidity.

How does one go about creating/altering/modifying a theme, if it's permitted?

Could someone give some advice or some pointers?

Thanks.

That's the only tutorial, trial and error..search the thread...etc etc
[Android Themes] c627627:
I am guessing someone must have already asked this in this massive thread so apologies for not being able to find it - but as you know the number of keyboard choices is large (as it should be), this is great, but out of a hundred choices, each of us has a few favorite ones, is there any way to get the program to display a dozen of or so of our favorite ones on top or in a special 'Favorites' section or something similar that would be an easier overview of what each individual likes?

It is impractical to remember where you have to scroll to get to the few of your favorite ones... there's got be a way to simply scroll through a hundred keyboards once, select the ones you like and see them separate from the others and use the ones you really like instead of having to scroll through the hundred each time, trying to remember where the few that you really like, are?

If there is no such option, I hope you take this as user feedback and nothing else...
[Android Themes] Portgas D. Ace:
As an alternative to what you are asking for (which won't be done by the OP as it isn't a theming feature), you could set up the keyboard according to your needs by following the guide in the first post describing how to only include those themes that you want in the app.
[Android Themes] j3ffm1ll:
Is anyone else having an issue where everything works but when I go to sign in it wont pull the keyboard up at all (only in the swiftkey app) everywhere else the keyboard works flawlessly
[Android Themes] Ibuprophen:
Similar issue for me too [MENTION=2126467]djdarkknight96[/MENTION] ...

It delays/slowly pops up and pressing the keys, sometimes, delays the entry. It even displays the number row at the top when i have that feature deselected.

Also, i have it set not to place a space after entering characters like a period, comma, etc... And it still does.

I've just been dealing with it but, since one of the issues (similar to mine) was mentioned, i just figured i would make my issues heard and hoping not to be ignored or disregarded.

happens to me too, i am on 6.4.4.78.. when i try to login to my google account within swiftkey app, the keyboard does not come up, even if it comes up, it does not respond.. this happens where it asks for the gmail username..

Gmail only logs on if you flash the zip, either gmail or Google log in..I can't remember which one. Edit: misread
[Android Themes] djdarkknight96:
I'm working on this all day today, hopefully I'll have an update. If all goes good I'll post a test apk with only a few themes in it just to make sure it works for everyone.

Probably has nothing to do with our themes, but I've also been experiencing some issues v6.4.4.78.

Mainly: the keyboard would popup but the landscape input text field wouldn't and stay at the bottom (and under the kb). Also, I would constantly miss the spacebar and have 2 words attached by a "b" or a "v".

Reverted to 6.3.0.95 and no such issues anymore and kb feels much more responsive and easy to use.

I haven't change anything special to my themes to match the new stuff, but it wouldn't be the first SwiftKey screws things up...
[Android Themes] djdarkknight96:
Yeah I think this new structure is breaking crap, I just tried editing one of them and it crashed. I add a new one it crashed. Going to redo it all with old style. Hope it works or we might be screwed.
[Android Themes] Rhoban:
Haven't tried the latest one, but my self-updated 6.4.6.30 (stable) works fine.

I also have a workaround for those unable to log in with their Google account.

Install the original SwiftKey from the play store

Log in with your Google account

Set up the keyboard the way you like it (optional)

Then get Titanium Backup and make a backup of SwiftKey

After that's done, uninstall the original SwiftKey and install Super SwiftKey

Open Titanium Backup, find SwiftKey, tap on it, select restore and restore data only.

That will restore all settings you did on the original SwiftKey, including the Google log in.

Of course, this method requires root.

[Android Themes] [] AL []:
what is this and how does it differ from the normal clipboard??
[Android Themes] Rhoban:
You can save up to 10 messages in SwiftKey's clipboard, I believe.

You can also pin messages to the clipboard, as unpinned messages get automatically deleted after a while.

The normal android clipboard allows only for one message and that gets replaced whenever you copy a new one. Unless you use the Xposed module, the normal clipboard is rubbish.
[Android Themes] marciozomb13:
Clipboard feature was a beta exclusive feature, now is in the final version.
[Android Themes] pakitos:
Basically the LG clipboard (Not sure if othre brands have it) which I totally hate.

Can you disable it? or how exactly do you make it work? With the LG clipboard you can store like 6 and it pops a tinny triangle to the right which I can hardly ever access nor I find it real use.
[Android Themes] syverman:
It has an on and off switch.

___________________________________

I was trying to put some of my themes on the lastes SwiftKey release, but I can install it after putting my themes, don't know if it's a signing problem or an app.

Even if just modifie the color of one theme, is the same thing, unable to install, apps is corrupted.

Maybe Micro$oft has done some modifications and they don't Want we keep using our own themes ðŸ¤”

Which apk version do you have?

The Android 6+ version has given me problems in the past too. Try the Android 4+ version.

---------- Post added at 10:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:51 PM ----------

To use the SwiftKey keyboard you have to press the 3 lines on the left part of the suggestion bar, then when the menu shows up there's a clipboard icon on the right side.

I was talking about the original SwiftKey themes. I'm already using Super SwiftKey and the themes are awesome, no complaints with that. I was just complaining about the original SwiftKey.

You can update it yourself. It's not hard, it just might take a bit due to the plethora of themes.

But updating yourself comes with the advantage of being able to choose what themes to keep and which to remove.

There's a link to a guide in the OP, and if there are any uncertainties, I'll be glad to clarify.

Just a quick question...

Let's say that i had the files & info for a SwiftKey keyboard keyboard theme and i wanted to add it manually...

Can i copy the the theme info/folders into the "/data/data/com.touchtype.swiftkey/files/themes/" folder and then add the text details into the "themelist.json" file?

Just wondering...

[Android Themes] djdarkknight96:
Yep, use the guide in the OP to reduce it.

Be easier just to edit the apk, changing files in data may result in crashes.

Hi,

The link to download ApkTool 4.6 doesn't work. I found the V4.4 but when I try to sign I get a error message "busybox: not found"

Any advice ?

[Android Themes] Rhoban:
Use the Android 4.0.3+ apk.

Anything else will crash or will not install after being modified.

---------- Post added at 05:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:50 AM ----------

You could try updating yourself.

It's not as complicated as it sounds.

A link to a guide is in the OP.
[Android Themes] Dyn4myT:
I'm must be stupid...

I try with the 4.0.3+ instead of the 6+ before. But same crash when select SwiftKey at the installation.

I have followed the part to change the theme on the phone. (remove theme from original SwiftKey, copy the theme a want (all Sonny) to original SwiftKey from super SwiftKey) and sign the App with zipsigner as apktool doesn't work (missing busybox).

Is there anything wrong?

Thank you
[Android Themes] Rhoban:
Did you remove all original SwiftKey themes?

That's bad.

You have to leave material_resources, spotlight_resources and ics_resources folders in the apk. Those contain important stuff and without them the keyboard won't work.

So if you removed those, then that's the reason why it crashes.

The best option is to just leave all original SwiftKey themes there and just copy the Sonny ones into the apk. That should ensure that you don't accidentally delete an important folder again.

I still recommend using the 4.0.3+ version, cuz I always had problems with the 6+ version no matter what I did.
[Android Themes] Dyn4myT:
You're the man!!

I keep original theme, edit the .jon to add the Sonny's theme and its working.

[Android Themes] Rhoban:
If you have any other version already installed then I recommend you do a backup of it, delete it, and install the one with the Sonny themes, then restore only the data.

---------- Post added at 07:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:06 PM ----------

You can use zipsigner mentioned in the previous page.

Or you can use MiXplorer (an XDA exclusive file browser) which has a zip signer add-on.

I myself use MiXplorer.

One thing to remember. If you're removing themes from original SwiftKey, don't remove ics_resources, spotlight_resources and material_resources.

Removing those will make the keyboard crash.
[Android Themes] Portgas D. Ace:
What do you mean by "but not sure the lag will get fixed"? The lag when opening the keyboard?
[Android Themes] djdarkknight96:
No clue, from reports here of lag.
[Android Themes] Portgas D. Ace:
Ah, I see. Thought I missed something important :p

But compared to other keyboard apps, Swift Key has a slight lag when being opened, so I thought you were refering to this. From my point of view, lag is caused by the original app, not the themes, so reports of lag should be submitted to Swift Key developer team, not here.
[Android Themes] Rhoban:
And their response will be "Make sure you are using the latest version"

I reported two issues, one with battery drain and the other with lag while opening the emoji keyboard, and their response was exactly the one from above, even though I was using the latest official stable at that time.
[Android Themes] Ibuprophen:
This is for those who are unaware of the following information...

I think that some members are confused with the name "zipsigner" to sign zip files as opposed to needing to have an apk signed.

Here's a brief explanation behind the zipsigner name...

An app file is, essentially, a compressed zip file with an apk extension. For example, if you take any apk file and change the extension of .apk to .zip, you'll notice that it can be opened, decompressed, etc... like a normal zip file. That was just an example but, you could say (i believe i have this correct) that all apk files are zip files but, not all zip files are apk files.

With that said...

The zipsigner app can sign both zip and apk files. The reason for signing a zip file is for those that are, usually, for flashing and apk files are obvious.

I hope I had explained it well but, I'm not perfect, so if i was incorrect in any way then please let me know where it was that I was incorrect in and I'll know for future reference.

Thanks a bunch!

[Android Themes] Rhoban:
Then try with MiXplorer and download its zip signer add-on. It works for me, just updated my Super SwiftKey to the latest version.

Also, make sure the SwiftKey apk you're using is for android 4.0.3+

The android 6+ apk always gave me problems.

Use auto. Plus before signing it open the apk to explore and see if all the files are in there. Seems to me like you are not using the full apk when you sign it. Should be assets folder, res folder, cert inf, manifest, resources, and dex files.

[Android Themes] JoeFCaputo113:
The file is 162 MB large, so I'd imagine it's correct.
[Android Themes] Rhoban:
Is that the size after copying all the themes into the apk?

Perhaps you should try with a smaller number of themes first and see if that works.

Also, which version of MiXplorer did you use? I used 6.9.6 Beta. Don't know if it matter or not, but maybe you could try that one too.

Also to note, I always update using my phone.

If you're modifying it on the PC, then signing it with the phone, maybe that's the problem?
[Android Themes] djdarkknight96:
I had this issue too, delete the META-INF folder in the apk first then sign it. The package is too big to replace but will create it just fine.
