Hey guys,

Are there any good modded keyboards out there for the Rezounds high resolution screen that can be made a little taller?

I've tried a ton of keyboards and most are too small on the Rezound's screen - Swype is too small, TouchPal doesn't even fill up the width of the screen, FlexT9 is too small, the HTC IME mod I loved on my DINC is super tiny.

I like the HTC Trace keyboard but it seems a tad laggy compared to the HTC IME i used on my DINC.

SwiftKeyX can be enlarged to a perfect height, but also seems a bit laggy to me (and I hate the 4 available themes).

UltraKeyboard has lots of great custom tweaks and can be made the tallest of any of the others, but the typing and swiping accuracy isn't the best.

Ideally, I'd love to see modded version of the HTC Trace keyboard that can be modded like the HTC IME - it was super fast/responsive and had lots of custom tweaks (long press duration, swipe left to delete last word, etc).

I like the combo of type and swipe, but none seem very good in the market.

Anything out there that's really good for the Rezound you can recommend?
[HTC Rezound] dyetheskin:
go keyboard,sounds like it has everything you like

[HTC Rezound] jmk32:
Tried Go Keyboard too. A little on the small side and didn't keep up with fast typing.

The one i just installed that I like best right now is Smart Keyboard Pro. It keeps up better than the stock one for fast typing and has LOTS of custom themes and settings.

This one below with the red accents matches the Rezound pretty well...
[HTC Rezound] dyetheskin:
typing seems fine with go keyboard. tried adjusting the sizes?

[HTC Rezound] jmk32:
Go Keyboard was ok, not great for me. I had the Go Keyboard on the top setting for height (5 i believe) and it's at least 1/2 inches shorter than the Smart Keyboard Pro setting I have which i like a lot better. The keys themselves seemed smaller too compared to the stock keyboard.

I like to type fast and the haptic feedback on some of these keyboards doesn't keep up well and throws me off. Smart Keyboard definitely is a tad faster than these others with the haptic (which i have to have on) and has been very accurate too, which is the other issue i had with some of these other keyboards.
[HTC Rezound] rockehill10:
Is the word prediction on Smart Pro as good as SwiftKey X? It will even predict well known names--amazing. I probably only have to type 60-70% of the time and I guess coming from my Dinc, this keyboard seems much larger.

Guess I'll take a peek at Smart Pro
[HTC Rezound] jmorton10:
Smart KB Pro is by far my favorite KB at this point and I've tried them all.

SwiftkeyX has a little better prediction for sure but I still don't really like it at all.
[HTC Rezound] username235:
You guys using smart keyboard, how do you get your skins to show up again? For me, it doesn't show up on sdcard2, nor the internal sdcard. I gave up on using it because I don't really like those stock skins it comes with

thumb keyboard rules all! i love all of the different options and it can be manually scaled

Smart keyboard pro is great !

[HTC Rezound] jmk32:
You need to manually add a folder to the internal sdcard (wouldn't recognize on the external sd card (so dont put it in sdcard 2) and name it 'skins' . Then put the zip files for the themes you've downloaded into it.

Now, when you go to general settings the preview of your downloaded themes will show up too...

There's a ton of themes to choose from in their forum's
[HTC Rezound] LakerStar25:
What skin is that?

WOW, that skin is awesome -I just installed it.

Thanks for posting that.
[HTC Rezound] mad1100:
Anyone having trouble getting the skins to show for Smart Keyboard Pro? I just tried installing this skin using the folder steps, but even though it shows a preview in the settings menu, it never shows it outside of the settings. None of the other skins will work either, even the ones that come with the app.

Anyone have any ideas? I have already tried rebooting and reinstalling the app
[HTC Rezound] jmorton10:
Make sure the skins folder is on the INTERNAL memory, not your card.
[HTC Rezound] guitarEd182:
Ur problem is that u use haptic feedback. Such a terrible idea. Shut that off and ur typing will be smooth
[HTC Rezound] matthewjoseph255:
i still like better keyboard haha
[HTC Rezound] jmk32:
You're welcome! It's an absolutely perfect match for the Rezounds red accents and I love that you can customize how tall it is in portrait (I have it slightly taller than stock )
[HTC Rezound] CorruptCookies:
I think that swype is the fastest and easiest to use on pretty much ALL android phones and it fits the screen very nicely

you can dl it at the sype beta site
[HTC Rezound] excellentnuke:
The one I got from there is too small. It takes up maybe 1/5 of the screen, then when I "fix" it, it's still scrunched up.
[HTC Rezound] jmk32:
Current Swype keyboard is at least 1/2 inch shorter than the current SmartKeyboard and UltraKeyboard I've been using. Just seems too small to use for me on the Rezound...

They need to update it or add more custom settings for me to even think of using it
[HTC Rezound] krelvinaz:
I just loaded it on my Rezound last night... Looks okay to me.
[HTC Rezound] excellentnuke:
What ROM are you using?
[HTC Rezound] krelvinaz:
Still stock GB
[HTC Rezound] jmk32:
Here are screenshots of the Swype keyboard and Ultra Keyboard (just a tad taller than the stock one on the Rezound).

You can see a meaningful difference in height which is a deal breaker for me. I hope Swype adds some customization soon as it's a good keyboard...
[HTC Rezound] jmk32:
(not sure how to do side by side attachments in a post). Here's the Ultra Keyboard in comparison
[HTC Rezound] jmk32:
Would downloading the Swype for Tablets version work on the Rezound? Since our screen has the same resolution as some tablets? I believe the tablet version does have adjustable sizing...
[HTC Rezound] iaRIVR:
Not that it's a good fix, but if Swype installs and is too small, rotate 90, let the screen reorient, then turn it back. It will fill the screen, but I'm pretty sure it's a little shorter. I've had Swype install fine on some ics roms and not on others, but I keep coming back to it.
[HTC Rezound] jay_em113:
+1 - Thumb Keyboard is what I prefer and I've tried most. Everything is customizable including the height of both the vertical and landscape keyboards independently. My favorite thing about it though is the HUGE spacebar...I always hated using the other keyboards' small spacebar and occasionally hitting the period or something else when I didn't mean to.
[HTC Rezound] ianPhillips1:
+1 ,love thumb keyboard ,got it for my tablet, love it on my rezound. You make it fit however you want. Better keyboard also has a sizing feature but not a fraction as many as TK.

Worked great with that rotation trick
[HTC Rezound] jmorton10:
Is thumb keyboard that weird kb that's split in the middle??
[HTC Rezound] krelvinaz:
Can be. That is great for a larger screen like on a tablet, but you can use a more normal keyboard as well.

One thing I like a lot is the presets, where you can preset text that you might use often. However, on my Rezound, I tend to use Swype most of the time as I just got used to it.
[HTC Rezound] YamiYaiba:
Let me restate: using a titanium backup of the previous version of Swype works on all ICS roms I've tried. It displays 100% correct size for Swype. The current version is, for whatever reason, borked on the Rezound.
[HTC Rezound] mentallo:
I started using Flext9 and its working really great. I think I'm over swype.

I've had to return 2 primes, but my third will hopefully come soon from Hhgregg.

Anyway,

I'm going to Thailand in March and wanted to use my Prime and Dock in my photography workflow.

What I have currently is a Canon 50D camera (uses Compact Flash cards), External USB HDD and an external card reader/USB hub. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0028MEZFE/ref=oh_o05_s00_i00_details

I'm trying to figure out the best way to transfer off my CF cards to my external HDD. It's not looking like I will be able to have them both connected at the same time. So, currently it's looking like I may need to transfer from CF to internal MicroSD card, then to HDD. However, I noticed on a test that the transfer rate was really slow doing it that way.

The USB hub/Card reader is seen by the prime, but I could not see both a CF card and external USB HDD connected to that hub at the same time. Which is what I was hoping for.

Any suggestions on a workflow or questions if I didn't make enough since above?

Thanks
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Spidey01:
I would try a usb hub and a usb card reader, idk if usb card readers work past the ASUS one, which iirc plugs into the docking port.

I always have the same problems with all kernels

I follow all the steps and I see the kernel logo at boot

and when I install a rom which is compatible with the kernel it bricked

what's wrong ??

should i install the rom first then flash the kernel ?? but there are many Roms works only for specific kernels

and should i delete any files before flashing kernels ??
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bolussimo:
You should install kernel, do a full wipe/factory reset and install new ROM. For me this 3 steps, in this order, works great :)

And other thing - maybe your sd card is damaged :)
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mohybessar:
My SD card is working

and this is exactly what i do :(
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bolussimo:
So copy everything what U have from sd to hard drive, then format Your sd, copy-back all data and see if this help. In my opinion it's a SD fault :)
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mohybessar:
okay i will try :)

Hey guys,

My friend asked me to flash his phone cause he thought it was messed... but after flashing a few roms i think the phone is just buggered...

the home key for some reason activates the search key.

i used the remapping app to make the search key the home key which makes the phone usable..

are the capacitative buttons just screwed or would a restore back to stock fix it?

i've been trying to get into download mode but the damn thing just won't do it.. i just get CWM recovery or at&t splash logo's constantly...

anyone with any advice?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ridhi:
Use a jig to force the DL mode.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apbthe3:
A flash to stock may help. Pull the battery and the SD card, put the battery back in, hold both volume buttons, and plug the USB cable in (don't touch the power button). You should go into download mode.

If that doesn't work, try just the volume down button and press the power button.

If that doesn't work, a jig is in your future.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcurtis369:
[Edit] Which bootloaders are you on eclair/froyo, i9000 gb, or i897? To get to download mode on i9000 gb bootloaders you need to hold volume down button and the power button. For the others hold both volume buttons and then plug in the usb
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
^^That's not correct.... I9000 bootloaders are:

Vol down and power = download

Vol up and power = recovery

Op...are you sure you're using a kernel and ROM built for the captivate? Cause using a straight up I9000 kernel/ROM on a captivate will do that...is autorotation 90° off?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcurtis369:

Hello, I have the same issue just that to my phone the back key activates the search key. I was on gingerbread put on download mode flashed again to stock with odin but the issue still is there.

I even installed cm10 to see if this will have fixed it but nope no luck the same again.

Any way to solve this???

Thanks.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zhosi:
Try buttonremapper from www.blapkmarket.com

this should solve your issue.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4-2ndtwin:
Oops on thx. ...which stock firmware did u flash ?? i9000 or i897 & which firmware ??
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laughingT:
my capacitive started going erratic a while ago and I fixed it with a simple cleaning as follows:

removed screen protector.

used a toothpick and fingernail to clean the very small seam between the case and the bottom of the screen and along the sides. then I took a microfiber screen cleaner cloth and firmly, pressed a corner of the cloth into the seam and dragged it along the seam. the cleaning removed a little bit of greasy/oily debris that had been in the bottom seam.

then wiped the entire screen clean with microfiber cleaning cloth and installed a new screen protector.

no problems since then.

It doesn't take too much debris to change the location of the capacitance from your finger or your stylus.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zhosi:
I've flashed the i897. But as I've mentioned before, i solved in some kind of way with buttonremapper. On the back button i've put search and on search the back button.

Does anybody use openvpn with abyss kernel (3.6 in this case)? I have never used openvpn for Android and when I activate it, it gives me the error message below:

"Failed to load tun module. Device node /dev/tun/ or dev/net/tun did not show up."

I have the certs and Conf files in the openvpn folder, busybox installed, and according to the openvpn installer, openvpn is installed. I'm using abyss 3.6.

Can anybody tell me what I'm doing incorrectly or what I have failed to do?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kvsandeepreddy:
faced similar kind of problem when using abyss... restarting the phone helped it somehow and started working again... but my stock rom worked without any problem... download tun.ko app from market and try to install your tun module again... ticking insmod option in advanced settings also might help....

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jolillo:
My config for Abyss 3.7

In openVPN Settings -> Advanced:

- 'Load tun kernel' module activated

- 'TUN module settigns' -> 'Load module using' set to insmod

- 'TUN module settigns' -> 'Path to run module' set to /lib/modules/tun.ko

Hope it helps
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baka2x:
Thanks for the ideas. For some strange reason it still won't work. I'm using abyss 3.7 as well and everything is installed and in the proper places.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elusivo:
old problem, I also tried to fix it but never found a solution. Also would like to have it working.

On older rocketrom versions I was able to connect to my openvpn server (or at least it seemed that way as openvpn showed me as connected and with no errors) but when I tested the connection my IP was still my own and not the one from the vpn server I was supposedly connected to, so I dun think it was really working
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jolillo:
A quick summary about my openVPN installation

This is how I installed openVPN on Rocket ROM 22 with Abyss 3.7 (log enabled version, I don't know if it matters).

Maybe something it's different from what you did, or you see anything that can help you to solve your problem.

Download from market (sorry, I can't post links) openVPN Installer and openVPN Settings (Friedrich Schäuffelhut versions). I didn't download any other additional app, library....

Install openVPN with openVPN Installer. During installation set

- target directory to /system/xbin

- ifconfig route to /system/xbin/busybox ifconfig (recommended)

In openVPN Settings:

- 'Load tun kernel' module activated

- 'Path to openVPN binary' set to /system/xbin/openvpn (this was the default setting)

In openVPN Settings -> Advanced:

- 'TUN module settigns' -> 'Load module using' set to insmod

- 'TUN module settigns' -> 'Path to run module' set to /lib/modules/tun.ko

Copy ovpn config files, certificates, etc to your route and ready. With this setup openVPN is working ok for me.

I just had some minor "issues", but I think they're related to mi ovpn config not with the tun module.

1. I had to change some data in ovpn config files, but it's due they were ubuntu ready... :p

2. I need to apply the 'Fix DNS' option in openVPN Settings. If not applied browser can't solve urls. :confused:

Finally.. I have tested openVPN only over 3G connection. This setup is working too on Criskelo ROM.

First, thanks for the thorough explanation. I just flashed chrack v13 and tried both FM 2.0 and abyss 3.7 with success :-)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elusivo:
waaaaa I finally got openvpn to work xD

I got the tun.ko installer from the market, it downloaded the correct module onto /months/sdcard/tun.ko then I used that path in the advanced settings of openvpn and voilá xD it's working! xD

I have had my Evo 3D for a couple of months now and I want to root it. My questions are. Should I do it? What are some common problems if i do it? (example: when the evo 4g did not have 4g until they found the fix) What are some good ROMs up there?

I rooted my Evo 4g and traded it for the Evo 3D,so I have very little experience.

[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
Have you read the stickes? All the info you need is there.

You aren't going to get an answer for this. All roms are different, and designed for different needs. The best thing about rooting is you can easily flash a rom, try it out for a few days, and if you dont like it, flash another.
[HTC EVO 3D] Grnfinger:

I will put in my .2 cents that I run the Stock Rooted ROM 2.17.651.5, and since 2.08, this ROM moves MUCH BETTER. If you want a stock feel, I would run the OEM ROM.
[HTC EVO 3D] hidavi:
only if you want to do wifi tethering.

when I was on Windows Mobile 5-6.5, it was always a benefit to install custom roms because of performance and abilities benefits...

but with Android phones, there isn't usually much of a benefit to custom ROMs.

With my EVO 4G, custom roms gave me better battery life and interesting interfaces... but also ran slower, more random reboots, GPS would randomly not work right, Google speach listening would randomly not work, and "tweaks" that just caused bugs. For the last 2 months of my EVO 4G, I ended up just going back to stock and the battery life was poor, but at least the phone worked as intended.

My EVO 3D works perfectly in stock mode and this phone naturally has good battery life (at least 3x more life than my EVO 4G) so its gonna stay that way. I did root for the wifitether app, but not gonna go further than that. Keep it stock man.
[HTC EVO 3D] blane73:

[HTC EVO 3D] mpgrimm2:
Another benefit to rooting & Stock Rooted, besides wifi tether, is the ability to remove HTC Bloat/stock apps that you don't need or use (T.I backup). If you need extra battery life, pickup a Seidio 4000mah battery ($55 on amazon).

It doesn't take but a few seconds. Google wallet isn't working for me either. If it's not a paypass machine that has to be updated then its just one that doesn't work correctly or according to them its my phone. I've had zero success using the nexus with google wallet but I have no problem using it on other phones.

I don't know how true this is but one of the cashiers told me they needed to update their paypass machines to work with newer phones...sounded dumb to me. Most of the time it will detect my phone and initiate the transaction but it will just hang and the money never moves leaving me look like a dumbass lol.
