BUG TRACKER for v2.1

This space is reserved for bug tracking.

Even though the latest version of FingerKeyboard2 has been tested on multiple devices with different ROM-s for more then 20 days, it's very likely that we missed some bugs.

When reporting bugs, please try to be as detailed as possible. The more information you supply, the easier it will be to find the bug and squash it. And we like squashing bugs! Some bugs with previous versions of FingerKeyboard were caused by 3rd party software. The usual suspects are other 3rd party keyboards.

DEBUG LOGGER! PLEASE USE IT IF YOU HAVE PROBLEMS!

Attached below, you will find Fingerkeyb_debug.dll file. This file will create a debug log which you can then send to us, so we can detect problems and try to fix them in the next release. It is mostly aimed at solving the problem that some people have with landscape mode, but it can be used to track any other problems as well. Debug logger is not that painless to use, but if you really want our help, this is the best way for us to detect what the problem is.

To start using this, you will need Resco Explorer or Total Commander CE.

Go into FingerKeyb folder (Program Files).

1. rename Fingerkeyb.dll to something else (example: Fingerkeyb_.dll)

2. Copy FingerKeybd_debug.dll to Program Files/FingerKeyb directory.

3. Rename FingerKeyb_debug.dll to FingerKeyb.dll

4. Softreset the phone

5. Open the FingerKeyboard, press 1-10 random keys on keyboard.

6. Minimize the keyboard, rotate the phone and open the keyboard again, after the phone is in landscape mode. Try to press 1-10 random keys again.

7. If you encounter the landscape bug, switch to HTC keyboard, making sure that it shows in landscape correctly.

8. Copy the FingerKeyb.log in working directory to a different folder on your device or PC and after that select FingerKeyboard again.

9. You will now have 2 log files. Rename them so they don't have the same file name and send them to Rozenthal or Exidler.

If you do not have Resco File Explorer or Total Commander CE, you can try this procedure:

0. Unregister keyboard using the old Fingerkeyb_register.exe (found in v1.4 thread) and then softreset

1. same as above

2. same as above

3. same as above

4. Register keyboard with the Fingerkeyb_register.exe

5. same as above

6. same as above

7. same as above

8. same as above

9. same as above

The logging tool will seem very slow, that's normal - it needs to write a bunch of info on every keypress, so take it easy. After you're done, you can simply reverse the procedure: remove the debug.dll, rename back the original Fingerkeyb.dll, and continue using the keyboard normally.

The log files can be sent to us via private messages here on XDA. Also, please do not expect to instantly receive a magical solution for your problem. If a simple solution exists, we will message you on how to apply it. If it's an issue that requires changing FingerKeyboard core files, it's more likely that the issue will be fixed in future versions of the software.

- Switching from landscape back to portrait can sometimes result in a few pixels big square in top left corner of the device screen. This square looks like a piece of keyboard and can be pressed. The square goes away if you run Config tool or reload keyboard. (unresolved)
