Hello guys.

So I made this flashable.zip with the LG G3 Keyboard(ver.-6.4.7) ported from official V30B firmware and I decided to share it here. It works on CandySix without problems and should work on all MM roms.

Try and report please :)

Version 2:

Added xxhdpi(for the people that using lower dpi(440-520))

Added Black theme

Version 1:

Initial, link for Download is removed.

[G3 Themes and Apps] GuestK00280:
[MENTION=4837394]siankatabg[/MENTION], thanks for the port!

It works on RR too. On xxxhdpi, that is. A lot of people run their phones in 440-520 dpi range, which is xxhdpi. Would've been nice if you included resources for it.
[G3 Themes and Apps] siankatabg:
Ok mate, I will try to add xxhdpi support, but I don't know when I'll have time... I need to add the black theme too...
[G3 Themes and Apps] siankatabg:
Black theme on 440dpi (and ye, I know about the soft buttons). New version tomorrow :)
[G3 Themes and Apps] selo28:
Congratulations thanks.
[G3 Themes and Apps] tangnt:
Hi, could you make this to work in other non-LG devices?
[G3 Themes and Apps] siankatabg:
V2 added in OP. Please report if all is working correctly :)

[MENTION=6100792]tangnt[/MENTION] - No, as I don't have other device, time and that much skills in porting. Sorry. :)
[G3 Themes and Apps] siankatabg:
100+ downloads and no comments, I suppose that all is working correctly :)

I am curious if rooting will effect use with Project Fi? I am currently using...

Are there any known issues, limitations or features that don't work on a rooted stock rom?

Does rooting break using encryption?

thanks in advance!
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boxcar8028:
Been on Project Fi for over 3 month now and I’m rooted, encrypted and with Xposed and I have no problems whatsoever. My 6p works great everythings working just fine. The only thing about rooting your phone is that Android Pay may not work. But for me I need my root apps more then AP.

Welcome to Project Fi. Just in case you didn’t know but this is a must have app for Project Fi users.

Unlocking the bootloader will wipe the device.

[Xiaomi Mi 4C] Flash-A-Holic:
Hello XDA! I'm one of those old school guys who likes physical keyboard on phone. Specially I like qwerty sliders but the bad thing is that they are dying out. (Watch out small screens, you are next!). Of course there is Priv but I think that it is sliding wrong way. So I decided to make my own qwerty slider:

[YOUTUBE]JXdLzinnqms[/YOUTUBE]

I bought "The Beast" Xiaomi Mi4C and a bluetooth qwerty keyboard case for iPhone 6 (about 20$). First I cut the edges from the case, drilled hole for a speaker and made the camera hole little bit bigger for flash light. Then I just glued phone and case together. Because I cut the edges from the case there was about 1-3mm meeting between case and phone. I filled the cap with Sugru™. It should last for usage and temperature changes (between -50°C to +180°C).

For the software part I rooted my Mi4C and flashed CM13. Then I installed Keyboard Manager. With that app you can change keyboard based on orientation

automatically

. For landscape I use Minuum Keyboard with Mini Mode because I wanted the 5th number row. In the settings you can make the Minuum Keyboard only 140px (60+80) high. It takes only 13% of your screen space on Mi4C. If you don't want to use Minuum Keyboard you can use Null Input Method. In portait I use Google Keyboard. (Hint: You can transfer your dictionary from other keyboard to Minuum Keyboard).

When you install the Keyboard Manager you need to make this fix:

Total dimensions are 139 x 69.6 x 16 mm and weight is 228 g but I have installed tempered glass screen protector. For comparison Motorola Droid 4: 127 x 67.3 x 12.7 mm and 178.9 g. Here is more pictures:

Hit thanks if you liked my mod :)

PS: I already bought another original back cover so I can change back to "normal" phone if I like (not going to happen :silly:)
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] Flash-A-Holic:
I have found one 5 row bluetooth keyboard case. It is for iPhone 5/5s so it is much smaller. Maybe it is possible to mod it to Mi4C or other phone (Xperia Z5 Compact?):

[YOUTUBE]bKm0yCBZGkk[/YOUTUBE]
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] pelago:
That's great. I've seen these few Bluetooth sliding keyboards and have been wondering if it was possible to mod them to fit other phones, and obviously it is!

Does the sliding mechanism have any kind of sensor that will tell the phone whether the keyboard is open or not? I use an Xperia Pro and often slide the keyboard open to wake the phone, and also force it into landscape mode. I also sometimes deliberately shut the keyboard in order to gain access to the landscape on-screen keyboard for special symbols, and it would be easier if I could keep it in landscape mode to do that rather than switch to portrait.

With the keyboard closed I guess the speaker is a bit muffled?
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] Flash-A-Holic:
The keyboard that I have does not have any sensor that could tell if the keyboard is open or not. However, I believe that it could be pretty easy to implement with NFC. You could just put NFC tag to the keyboard (where?) and the phone would recognize when the keyboard is closed. (I mean that there would be connection in closed position and no-connection in opened position). Mi4C doesn't have NFC so I can't test this. Actually I don't miss that feature at all. I'm pretty happy with double tap. Also you can simply press one button on keyboard and it will wake up the screen.

It is also possible to implement a switcher for keyboard. With Tasker and Secure Settings you can make a toggle which change the keyboard. And if you wanna be really geeky you can control that toggle with gestures using AutomateIt (or maybe Tasker can do this also) and All in one Gestures. So if you use Null Input Method in landscape you can just swipe up to change it to Google Keyboard for example.

For me Minuum Keyboard has every special symbol that I need. Actually only ones that are missing from keyboard are "[" and "]". There are tons of possibilities to tweak with. It is possible to lock phone in landscape with gestures also. You just have to be little bit creative. Of course "native" QWERTY slider is

always

better but I'm happy with my mod.

The speaker is not that bad in closed position in my Mi4C. As you can se from the teardown pictures the speaker is located only in the left side of the phone when you look from back. Also the keyboard does not cover the speaker directly so there is a air cap between speaker and keyboard. You can test this by placing your thumb directly to the speaker and then test again and leave this time a 5mm cap between finger and speaker.
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] The Solutor:
For my similar project you've already seen, I've used tasker to automate the phone unlock and horizontal rotation when the NUU keyboard slides out and so connects to BT.

On NUU keuboard there isn't nothing that inform the phone that the keyboard is closed, other than the BT disconnection timeout.

So i made a number of conditions to get practical the exit from the qwerty mode.

The phone turned in vertical, if the screen went in standby, if the phone was oriented verctically, and if a physical button was long pushed.

With tasker I had also the automated soft keyboard switch, because the SW keyboard I wanted to use with the vertical keyboard wasn't physical keyboard friendly. So I used two different sw keyboards that switched automatically depending if the phone was landscape or portrait mode.

The landscape keyboard could be the simple null keyboard, if you don't care about the spell checking function.
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] pelago:
How's the weight distribution with this combination? With "native" qwerty phones, like Xperia Pro, and Nokia N900, the weight is mostly in the lower half (the keyboard half), with the top half only being the screen itself. This means that the bit you hold and type on is the heavier one.

With your project, is the top (screen/phone) half heavier than the keyboard, and if so, does that mean it feels top heavy if you're holding it by the keyboard only, and feel like it might topple to the ground?

How's the battery life on the keyboard? It would be annoying to have to charge it every day like the phone itself.

Which exact keyboard did you use? Did you take any pics of the making process, to turn it into a sort of tutorial?

EDIT: Have you done this, or seen it done by others, on different model phones?
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] Flash-A-Holic:
I haven't measured the weight yet but I will do that later today and add it to the first post. The weight is 228g. For me it is pretty light weigh compared to the size. (Xiaomi Mi 4C itself weights 132g). The weight distribution is pretty stable. I mean if I open the keyboard and leave the phone to the table it will stay steady. I can even push the screen part and it will go back where it was. It doesn't feel that it is going to flip when I'm holding it. Of course there is more weight in the screen part but it is pretty stable.

The battery life of the keyboard is very good. I don't even know how long it will last. I have been charging the keyboard once a week. For phone I got 4h SOT in one charge with bluetooth always on. Sorry, I didn't take any pictures during the process. However, here is one picture when I was testing this combination with double-sided tape. Back then there was nasty cap between case and phone. I filled that cap with Sugru™. I don't know if anyone else has done this kind of mod excluding The Solutor. Althought I have found this: Turning Samsung galaxy note 4 (SM-N910F) into a mobile pc

I believe that I bought this one: Mini Bluetooth V3.0 Ultra-thin Wireless Slide-Out Keyboard case cover for iPhone 6 (4.7). I bought it from different seller from ebay and it was cheaper but the name is same (V3.0).

Actually you were an inspiration for me, thank you :). I will check what Tasker can do for me. For now I think that bluetooth timeout method is too slow. I think that double tab is much faster and easier.
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] The Solutor:
Thanks ;)

Well, I wrote too quickly, and I wanted to be brief just beacause I don't want to hijiak other's threads.

Anyway, the BT timeout didn't require tasker at all. It's just an internal timeout of the NUU keyboard.

What tasker did in that scenario, was the exit contition:

Enter condition ---> the keyboard slides out and connects to BT. Tasker rotates the screen, switches the keyboard, unlocks the phone (if needed) and so on.

On BT timeout (which is managed by the keyboard)--- tasker reverted the above actions.

Additionally I made a number of other conditions to force the exit task.

The phone is hold vertically for a second or so, the screen is turned off (because the power button was pushed, or because the phone turned it off), a physical button was long pushed, and maybe others that I don't remember.

Obviously there only your fantasy is the limit. You can choose a gesture, a tap combination, a shake action...

Whatever tasker and its plugins are able to manage...
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] Supovitz:
Want to make me one? How much do you want?
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] Flash-A-Holic:
Maybe it is better that you make it by yourself. I believe that shipping cost etc. would cost too much for you.
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] pelago:
I was wondering about the reason for cutting off the edges and then filling the gap with Sugru. I don't have the parts yet, but I assume the problem is that the phone is slightly too large to sit within the keyboard case edges as manufactured?

It would be great if there was a way to simply remove the phone from the keyboard case just by pulling the phone out, as you can do with the iPhone 6 the case is designed for. Would there be any way to modify the case to make that possible?

Also, is the back of the keyboard case less slippery than the original Mi 4C back cover?
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] Flash-A-Holic:
Yes Mi4C doesn't fit to the iPhone case properly. If you want removable keyboard case then you can buy a cover case for Mi4C. Then just glue the cover case and keyboard case together. You can also pull out the whole sliding mechanism like this (not my modification):

There is pretty good grip in the keyboard case. Much less slippery than Mi4C.
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] pelago:
Thanks.

Looking around, I've found someone doing something similar. A few years old, but may be useful for some ideas: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1cu6UCobKyY
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] pelago:
I've just bought one of those sliding keyboards for iPhone 6. It looks a little different to your one - mine looks like:

Specifically, mine has a sliding power switch on the left, a Bluetooth sync button above that, the space bar is only two normal letters width rather than three, it has an extra "clover" button on the right of the space bar, the labelling is different on some keys to the left, and the keys in general look flatter than yours.

I haven't tried modding it yet, but I'm a bit put off by the power switch, as I would rather not have to switch the keyboard off and on manually. Does your keyboard have a power switch on it too, somewhere else?
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] pelago:
I know that beggars can't be choosers, but having tried this keyboard for a while (in conjunction with a Nexus 7 (2013), as I don't actually have a Mi 4C yet), there are some aspects of it which aren't perfect.

For a start, the keys are quite clicky, much more so than my Xperia Pro or Nokia N900, making it noisier to use whenever there is someone else around.

I would like there to be a Ctrl key - I've been trying to use External Keyboard Helper to map keys, and the ideal one looks like the two clover keys, but I can't seem to map those. When I press those keys I get a big animated white border around the entire screen - is that Google Now? I don't know, as I don't use that.

There is also an annoying few seconds delay after pressing a key to wake up the keyboard and the device responding. With my previous phones with intergrated keyboards, they respond straight away. This is presumably just because of Bluetooth and nothing can really be done about that.

The five-row Boxwave keyboard buddy you mention in the second post looks interesting, but I can't seem to find it (or any generic branded clones) on ebay unfortunately.
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] The Solutor:
It's been a while since I did that phone, but, assuming you're rooted you should be able to adjust the keylayout to your lickings

https://source.android.com/devices/input/key-layout-files.html

I assume that depends on the keyboard used. my NUU keyboard did connect when sliding out, not when the first key was pressed.

Taking account there was a small delay since the connection, because tasker had to wakeup and unlock the phone (if locked and/or sleeping) and to force the horizontal orientation (and optionally to swap the SW keyboard with something mechanical friendly like swiftkey or touchpal), I had no perceivable delay on the first key pressed.

P.S. Guys please resize a bit such huge images before posting them.

They break the forum layout using the classic skin (the yellow one)
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] pelago:
That's a good pointer, I'll look into that. It would be good to remap the keys without using External Keyboard Helper.

Unfortunately the keyboard I was trying doesn't seem to have any kind of sensor that would know when the keyboard was slid out or not.

Did you just apply a back case from another casing to the bluetooth keyboard of a slider case?

Super happy to have found this thread. I'm using my Motorola Droid 4, but it's lost its GPS antenna, and I'm really tempted to jump at this Moto G4 Plus... Just held it in-store at Best Buy, and it feels massive, something I wouldn't type on with just one hand holding it. I just want landscape QWERTY keyboard functionality!
[Xiaomi Mi 4C] GDorn:
After being disappointed by Blackberry's attempts at a physical keyboard, I'm back to strongly considering this approach. Your blog post is a great inspiration for finally upgrading my Motorola Photon Q LTE to something that can run something more than Android 4.1.2...

What's the most powerful android phone in roughly the right form-factor for this keyboard case? I see you're ripping off the iPhone case part and attaching a proper case for the Huawei, and I'd do similar, but I'd want the whole thing to be vaguely the right shape. Like, attaching this keyboard to a Pixel XL would just be silly, but there aren't that many android phones around the size of the iPhone 6/7.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mama Luigi:
It sounds like you have a digitizer that is going bad. My own G2 (purchased used from Swappa) had a very similar problem develop a couple months ago. It was fine for a while and then I started losing the ability to swipe out words (I prefer swiping to tap-typing). But only occasionally, and only when swiping in a particular direction across a particular area. I worked around it by just tap-typing instead.

Yesterday it got far, far worse, very suddenly. That same problem area is now totally unresponsive to touch. I cannot type the letters T, F, C, or a comma, Z and S are difficult, and if I tap on those letters it will sometimes register as though I have hit the letters on either side of it (so tapping T will result in an R and a Y).

This appears to be a very common problem for the G2, and it's really a shame since it's a great phone, still fast even today, big screen, and a great deal. I thought about buying another used one but I'm worried about the same thing happening again. The cost to replace the digitizer isn't worth it - it's around $50 to get the part, you need specialized tools like a heat gun and mini screwdrivers that will probably cost $10 to $20, and the repair itself is extremely involved based on the videos I've watched. Not worth paying someone to do it either - the cost is the same as buying a new phone.

I've already purchased a Galaxy S4 that is on its way now. My wife has one and it's nice. I still like the G2 more but they're very similar.
