Yep, and it's very simple. Just save the appropriate txt files you want to keep.

For example, if you take a look into FingerKeyb\Skins folder, you will see there are txt files (smiles, shortcuts, global) that have your customized information stored inside them. Just back them up, and copy them inside after hard reset.

We can probably fulfill the second request as well. Config tool should be more "user-friendly" in future versions.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
Sorry, don't have a solution for that at this moment. I don't experience this in Opera, to be honest. And since no one else reported a similar issue, it could be something related to your device, Opera build, or a bunch of other things.

I know sometimes my answers may seem vague, but since people are often using so many different combinations of ROM's, devices, programs and settings, it's really hard for us to know what's causing some very specific issue. Hope you understand.

i have a Touch HD, and want v2.1 with NO arrows, which one of all do i download?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] roniez:
This dosent seem to work on the Samsung Omnia how ever. :(
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] MAMeingast:
I would recommend using the XL-skins found here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3400939&postcount=156

I use that one myself!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
We did not officially release WVGA cab without arrows. This is because we consider that Touch HD has enough screen space for the arrows to remain without occupying too much space. And they are very useful for text selection.

You can use the XL skins without arrows, but as far as I know, the XL skins have not been updated to work with v2.1 special features.

You will be able to use them normally, however, you will not be able to use Config tool to set up the following features:

- smiles

- shortcuts

- behavior of language button

Also, I think they do not have the new long-press on Spacebar (dot+space) feature.

Probably some other stuff missing, can't remember everything now.

Hi roniez,

I'm also using the Omnia (i900). You can try downloading the <XT9 Disable.cab> at post #3 and installing it. It worked on my phone.

Does anybody have a German VGA Skin for version 2.1?

This Skin would be nice for VGA but i cant find it here.

I Want Ö Ä Ü above O A U and a seperate button for Numbers but i cant find a Skin like this :(

pls help
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] vil_09:
Thanks it's nice. But when I send SMS in Russian recipients receive question marks, English is correct. I have installed FingerKeyb-2[1].1.408 VGA by Giannis86 (HTC ATT Fuze). Message options in Menu is not available

Can you fix the problem?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
Hm, not sure about this. I'm guessing it could be something with the code page for Russian characters, or perhaps the device receiving the message can't interpret the code page. Did you try sending message to yourself and check if it works ok?

By the way, using specific characters in SMS can result in whole bunch of problems, usually drastically reducing the available SMS character number. This is not something related to FingerKeyb, it's simply matter of what symbols are supported by default SMS code page.

hello could you add the following bug to the bug list (both are on htc touch hd when the keyboard is set to hide/overlap the windows bar)

BUG 1

=======

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=3427344#post3427344

BUG 2 (linked to BUG 1)

==================

If you do a drag motion with your finguer or stylus on the keys it's ok (the mapping is ok). The problem of BUG 1 only appears if you tap the keys.

I don't know if the following problem is already reported, but i also have some strange bug in landscape mode :

Sometimes pressing a key doesn't work (the pop up key seems to appears/disappears X times very quickly).

It seems that if i choose to hide the windows bar (the keyboard is overlapping) i'm experiencing some conflict with the keyboard keys and the menu bar (see picture of BUG 1). This conflict is very noticable in landcape mode.

thanks for your help
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
Like I said before, this bug indeed exists, but it's not on the bug list because it's not FingerKeyboard that's causing it. It's the WinMo :/

Exidler tried really hard to fix this, but it's just not up to us.

This is the precise reason why we added the option to show or hide bottom bar. You just have to decide if you have this bug are you willing to live with it and it's occasional appearances and have more screen space, or smaller screen space but no bug.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] vanna:
Ok, thanks for your explanation.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
No problem, I just hope that we somehow manage to get a breakthrough on that little pesky bug.

The info some of the users provided us with on this issue has been very valuable.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] A&A:
Two ways??? If I read all your text I do not come agross the 2nd way... Could you please explain which one is the 2nd way... I must be stupid but I cannot get this!

Just after installation these 2 options are greyed out. If I check the T9 box (as you said) and restart FingerKeyboard Config tool they are indeed enabled. If I select either of them (or both) I end up with an ERROR (Quit or Details are the ONLY options) and that's it!

Now, since the 1st way does not seem to work for me I am really excited to know about that 2nd way you mentioned ;)

Thanks in advance for your clarification :)

fingerkeyboard on LG Arena

very nice program. I have it on my HTC touch HD. My wife wants to buy the LG Arena. Does fingerkeyboard work on the LG Arena.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Digital Outcast:
I've seen an "issue" where sometimes when I press the spacebar it opens the start menu... is this just me or has anyone else seen this? I am using Dutty's 2.9 rom but have switched back to the old style start menu. I'm pretty sure it only started once I switched back to the old style start menu. It's not a big deal.

When it happens all I have to do to fix it is switch to the the standard QWERTY keyboard and back to FKB and then all is fine again. I can't nail down when it happens and it doesn't happen often but I will keep testing.

If my language (Lithuanian) is not officially supported by FingerKeyboard2. Is it possible to type Lithuanian symbols anyway?

What should I do?

Or is it completely up to developers of the software?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Zepiii:
Excellent idea to sticky this !
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
Yeah, that's quite possible. If you want to reduce the amount of space FingerKeyboard takes, I suggest you remove all color scheme folders you don't plan to use.

Pick one or two, delete the rest. Same goes for language skins.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
I'm affraid not :(

While FingerKeyb does support WVGA resolution, the Arena does not run on Windows Mobile. No Windows mobile = no FingerKeyboard.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
This is the second way. Install the XT9 global disable patch. However, be warned that this will turn both contact name and word suggestion, and you will not be able to pick to use just one. They will both be "on".

But, I think it's quite strange that both of those options are grayed out right after installation. What device are you using again?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
Hm, this is a first report of this kind for us.

It could really be something with the old style menu, although I have to say that I'm on Dutty 2.7, and have also reverted back to old start menu, and haven't noticed anything wrong with the spacebar.

Can I suggest you reinstall Fingerkeyboard now, after you have switched to old menu?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
Yes it is. Read FAQ (page 1, post 2)

I'm having some real problems with sipchange and setting fingerkeyboard 2.1 to be my default. I've set the timeout to 40 and 50 seconds and selected fingerkeyboard to be my default sip, but after each softreset i'm back to the default keyboard.

how i can change language`? The pretexted sentences are in english i want them in german i mean sentences like "How...doing", "Sincerly" etc. how i get that in german?

gl
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
Are you talking about VGA / QVGA versions? If yes, I would suggest you go to the Diamond thread and talk to Giannis, since he's running the show as far as the pretext layouts are concerned. I believe you would simply have to open the TXT file and edit it manually.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
It's a question for developers of SIP Change. It would help if you would describe a bit more, what device are you using and if you have any other SIP's installed. Perhaps you could try increasing the time even more?

SIP change works that after a set period of time it would set FKBD back as the selected keyboard. Basically, it automatizes the procedure of opening the keyboard selector and picking FKBD. If your device is booting longer then 50 seconds, then you would have to increase time.

http://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Datei:KB_Germany.svg&filetimestamp=20060815191327

(The polish keyboard miss also some letters)

I like the design, it´s a pretty work, but useless without the whole keyboard.

Sorry for the poor english.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] k3a0t1x:
Just like to thank you for your hard work.

It's easily the best keyboard available. Its a shame that there is no phonepad option :(
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
Um?!? What are you talking about???

Official German layout has: ö, ü, ä, ß

Did you even bother checking it out? Reading the FAQ? Anything? I guess other 30,000 people did.

And also, for the 50th time - if you're missing a character on your layout, you can add it into the keyboard through Config tool!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
Thanks! You mean compact querty? Someone made an attempt at compact querty, I believe you can find it in this thread.

It's a bit hard to implement it in the same style as traditional compact phonepads, because FKBD has a 2-level layout and single-press, while it would require a multi-press feature for traditional style to work as you're used to.

And I have to say that compact querty was never planned, we always went for full querty style. A matter of personal preferences, I guess.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] fishnmagician:
I must be missing something I just downloaded this on to my touch diamond. I have tried reading through all of this but i cannot find out how to make the keyboard go from portrait to landscape. what do i have to do?

Just minimize it before rotating. On my HD it closes down automatically when I rotate, then I just have to open it up to have it in correct orientation.

No xt9 after uninstall

Hi there

i did a search in this thread for this question and found nothing so im gonna post for help please.

i had this installed but found that i couldnt live without t9 and am not a fan of the word substitution mode.

however now the xt9 box is always greyed out and unable to be pushed on the htc full qwerty or any keyboard for that matter.

how do i get my keyboard back to normal please.

thanks
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
Did you install global T9 disable? If yes, then uninstall it.

Did you soft-reset after uninstall?

Did you check under Touch input settings if XT9 mode is turned on?

Did you try using the ABC / T9 switch on the stock keyboard? You have to be in the T9-enabled text field for that (for example, in SMS body, not Contact box!)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] vil_09:
Exactly, there is the problem with Russian code page. When I send SMS to myself there are question marks and I can't switch on in menu "Message options" Widows Cyrillic or other codes. When my Russian friends send me SMS, I can read both languages correctly. That means phone initially supports Cyrillic in SMS. And there is no problem with mail, MMS, (Message options->Windows Cyrilic / auto detect), internet.

I don't know about the same problem with other laguages I need to try, but to my mind there is possibility to add function of changing standard Win code pages in SMS.

I hope this software can be the best.

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] jleunghk:
thanks for the excellent software!! I'm starting to like it~

however, i encounter a very great trouble in using this keyboard, I don't know if anyone also experience this.

When I hold on q , w ,e , it will appear 1,2,3 . however, when I hold on "p", a "/" will be appear instead of "0"

Also, when I hold on "h", no "@" will be come out instead of a "2".

It seems the keyboard mapping in my phone (HTC HD, traditional chinese rom) seems not working well. May I know if there is any quick fix for this? (now I couldn't type any email or '0')...

Thank you!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] fagon:
I thank you again your wonderfull work!

I've configured this wonderfull keyboard with my own ptg layout, including leters â and ê and all accentuated capital letters that were missing in your original ptg layout.

I've seen that I can change color and seems that I can add a new layout for icon smiles...

But now, I would like to make more visible the little tiny letters over normal letter in each key.

I've looked again and again and I don't find where I can change that?

:confused: Is that possible? How?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] A&A:
Yes very strange indeed! :confused:

Ok, that's what I did:

- I have installed the XT9 global disable patch

- Rebooted

- Name and word suggestion are greyed out

- I checked the enable T9 box (as you previously said)

- Restarted the FingerKeyboard Config tool

- Name and word suggestion are enabled

- If I select either of them (or both) I end up with the error you see in the images below. Quit or Details are the ONLY options out of this!!!

I have experienced the exact same problem on both: "FingerKeyb-2.1-QVGA-utak3er" and "FingerKeyb-2.1-QVGA-arrows-Giannis86" on an Artemis and on an XDA Orbit (basically the same device, only different cosmetics).

Both devices are running this ROM:

YuE WM6.1 ExtraClean 5.2.20755

WM6.1 Professional CE OS 5.2.20755 (Build 20755.1.4.0) YuE

Hope you and your team can come up with a solution to this.... Tnx :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] arturobandini:
Such an amazing job. never tried such a good keyboard on my Touch HD.

Fast, elegant, convenient....and free :) Congratulations.

There is a minor bug (but I actually do not mind): on the HD Finger Keyboard closes down automatically when you rotate (and then you need to open it up again, but it is ok.). Also, in landscape mode, the graphics of the keys is not the same as in portrait mode. The separation between each key disappear.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
What language layout are you using? This really does seem very odd. If indeed it's the mapping, then you would have to figure out all mistaken mappings and change the layout of the language layout txt file to work around this issue.

All the layouts are in the FingerKeyb\Skins folder, they're just txt files, so you shouldn't have any problems editing them. Just remember to save the txt files in UTF8 format after you finish editing.

Layouts are pretty much straightforward, if you need more details you can read doc-about-skins.txt placed in FingerKeyb folder.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
Yes, the keyboard will automatically close, and it needs to be reopened. Otherwise it would stay in portrait mode even after rotating to landscape.

And it's true, the graphics in the landscape mode English layout have been enlarged and stretched from edge to edge, so they have maximum spacing and size. This was done after many, many users requested this change. Personally I feel that the old style that had smaller keys but was shaped like a PC keyboard, with larger spacing, had it's advantages as well. But, you can't have it both way I guess.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
You didn't read doc-about-skins.txt, did you!

; Font for key text (main)

FontNormal	normal

; Font for key text (hold text)

FontHold	hold

; Font for selected key text (main)

FontSelected	selected

; Font for seclected key text (hold text)

FontSelectedHold

These parameters can be found in scheme txt files.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
Keeps getting stranger, obviously.

You should not be able to select word or name suggestions at all after installing XT9 disable patch. Both options should be unavailable. I'm guessing that these bugs are somehow related to the ROM you're using.

As far as the screenshots go, I can't help you more then this. I will however forward your description to Exidler, so maybe he can provide something more meaningfull.

You can however check what are the settings in registry under Tegic T9, and see if they somehow conflict with the options selected under FKBD.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] fagon:
Thanks for answer.

I've read that but, as I have some dificult in english, I don't understood it.

What I want is to increase the font size (12 points, 18 points, etc) so that increase apearende of little tiny letters when is not selected yet...

CScheme FontNormal	ffffff Tahoma 18 700

CScheme FontHold	b3b3b3 Tahoma 10 700

CScheme FontSelected	efefef Tahoma 21 900

CScheme FontSelHold	efefef Tahoma 15 500

CScheme BgColor	000000

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] fagon:
Get 2 files inside FingerKeyb\Skins folder that you see most similar to your language: skin-02-qvga-land-YY-XXX.txt and skin-02-qvga-port-YY-XXX.txt.

Rename them to skin-02-qvga-land-YY-XX2.txt and skin-02-qvga-port-YY-XX2.txt.

Then, open them with notepad and there you can change some letter or symbol that you don't need and put there

those you need.

Put both files in FingerKeyb\Skins folder, select open keyboard options, select at lesat 1 language and your "XX2" language and aply to test.

And good look!...

There is a litle key at the left of keyboard that I think is showing "DE" (?) Hold it.

Hello,

I'm using FingerKeyboard with HTC Touch Pro and I'm wondering if FK can somohow interact with the hardware keyboard.

Let me explain what I mean. With standard software keyboard when I have english keyboard selected and I write something on hardware keyboard with top row keys I get numbers. Thats standard.

Then when I switch to other language, in my case Czech instead of numbers row I have row with national characters (with diacritic). Now when I type something on hardware keyboard and press some keys on top row it also changes!

When I change to Czech layout with Fingerkeyboard and then type with Hardware keyboard I still get standard english characters. Am I missing something or there isnt an option for Fingerkeyboard to change this yet?

BTW two small bugs (features?):

1) With digits layout. In portrait there is \ instead of /

2) File skin-02-vga-port-01-eng.txt, line 46

There is

SC:.,SS:3...,SC:.,SS:3

and should probably be

SC:.,SS:3...,SC:.,SS:3...

Even thought colon would be probably more usefull there.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
This is the key text size when it's not being pressed:

CScheme FontNormal	ffffff Tahoma 18 700

CScheme FontHold	b3b3b3 Tahoma 10 700

Normal is for normal keys, and hold is for the little symbols above the standard letters. Increase it to 12 for example, and you'll see a change. However, I have to warn you that these have all been optimized for FKBD, and you might get some overlapping if you go too far with increasing size.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
Go to post number 455 - you will see what parameters control the font.

Or read doc-about-skins.txt that's in your FingerKeyb folder.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] fagon:
Well... I think that it is not possible to just apply .reg in your PPC.

My HTC TouchCruise has Portuguese ROM and WinCe 6.1

I think that for you problem is preferable to reinstale you rom or make a Hard Reset (before you must keep out and uninstall your Storage Card).

Only for you guide here is my 'Tegic.reg'.

And remember:

I disclaim any responsability for any user.

Good Look!

Erase '.txt' and keep extention '.rar'
