I have installed various versions on my Touch HD and it refuses to work. I have tried resets, reinstalls the works!

Anyone got any ideas?

How can I edit the list of quick text messages? The "Thanks" button, for example enters "Thank's a lot and best regards." That would be fine except for the extraneous apostrophe. I have to edit that out manually each time. That's not really all that big a deal, but I'd rather figure out how to edit it once and for all.

Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks a lot and best regards.

I am currently working on my own keyboard based on Chris cross' XL skin here.

I'm having some trouble trying to assign an action to a button while HELD. I've placed two small LEFT and RIGHT arrows next to the Q and P keys. I want them to function as UP and DOWN when I HOLD them. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Here is what I've tried:

; arr5 and arr6 are icons i've made for my keyboard and is not a typo.

Key -2 5 37 62 2,2,8,2 arr5 wid1 ,Up,,Up	ACTION.ArrLeft,ACTION.ArrUp,ACTION.ArrLeft,ACTION.ArrUp

Key 765 5 37 62 2,2,8,2 arr6 wid1 ,Dn,,Dn	ACTION.ArrRight,ACTION.ArrDown,ACTION.ArrRight,ACTION.ArrDown,

Hey this software rocks! Love the arrow keys and the shortcuts.

But one flaw: on the omnia the keys are too cramed and I keep hitting the wrong key. Plus I can't seem to turn on auto-correct.

Can the devs please make the keys look something like that of the samsung's keyboard where the keys are taller and larger and easier to hit? :D

Hey guys anyway to enter special characters and numbers only? It's horrible when you're entering a number and you have to hold each key down.. would be great if there is a page that inputs only number and special characters like !@#$%^&*()-_[]{}<> , etc.. you know what I mean...
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] henrik.dk:
That is exactly what I have requested:

A really shift button which could be stick to enable special character input continuously.

HI ,

I have tried so many keyboards, latest editions of Resco and SPB Keyboards and I only get squares when selecting the Hebrew language.

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Tatsch:
There is a built-in layout called "digits", which can be used continuously to input numbers and the symbols = () {} + - * . ' \
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] blackice168:
if you hold down shift it will allow you to type shifted characters continuously

Cyrrilian letters in sms

In mine HTC touch diamond 2 it is not possible to send sms messages in russian. While typing everything is ok but after sending the text comes as question marks at the receiving phone. With the HTC touch HD the messages are received correct at the same receiving phone.

Is there any possibilities to type the letter è ?

Keyboard layout: Norwegian.

Thanks.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] igalan:
Please, before posting spend some time reading or at least searching, as some of the last few questions have been answered already.

If your keyboard layout doesn't have a character you need: Add it yourself (not too hard, really), or enable a layout that does have it (try them).

As a side note, I'm happy to report that now FingerKeyaboard is working well on my HD. Several pages back I reported that somehow it interfered with my Internet connection, once uninstalled I had no more problems. But I installed it again last week (also in main memory) and it's working perfectly since then. What went wrong is a complete mistery, I've not changed anything on my HD, I have the same programs and everything. Weird, but welcomed :) .
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] cmcfalls:
I am trying to replace action on the Enter button long hold to hide the keyboard rather than entering multiple lines. I thought that placing ACTION.KbdButton at the end of the row with the Enter button on it would do the trick, but it didn't. It did, however, cause the keyboard to stop entering multiple lines on a long hold, so it's doing something.

Anyone know of a way to replace the multiple line entry on a long Enter hold with the hide keyboard action?

Thanks!

Hey everybody,

first of all I would like to thank you for that great keyboard! I really like it and espeacially that the bottom bar is hidden, when the keyboard is visible.

Now my question: Is it possible to let the keyboard slide in, when you hit the SIP button or when it pops up automatically? Like on the iPhone? I love all that eye-candy stuff, even when it`s useless.

Thanks

Landscape on Iolite

Is it possible to get the keyboard in landscape mode on Iolite (without going to settings and switching to landscape)? Since as far as I know, Iolite does not have any accelerometers.

Would be awsome with a fast standard->landscape switch.

Btw: awsome job with the app!:D

It kinda lose it's sensitiveness, no finger scroll, just have to hit accurately the letter you want.

There's an annoying bug in landscape mode. When trying to get a capital 'S' with shift+S instead I get '.com' which should come with a long press not short. And with shift+S longpress I get a small 's'. Works ok in portrait mode.

I'm back to square one, Finger Keyboard yesterday started to cause errors on my HD, I got several error notifications (the one with Send or Don't send). It was appearing constantly. I wasn't sure where the problem was (I wasn't typing), but I suspected it was FKB, so I selected the standard HTC keyboard and the error notifications stopped. This all started after I installed a new program, but one that seems harmless: Vito SoundExplorer. Uninstalling SoundExplorer (carfully making sure that nothing was left) didn't help. So once more I can't use FKB :( .

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] zimmicz:
Hi,

i've been facing quite annoying bug of twikini since I downloaded it. I am using HTC Topaz with FingerKeyboard. The problem is that Twikini does not recognize long touches on keyboard - e.g. you have button with letter "a" and when you hold it longer, "a" with accent is written. That does not work in Twikini and I am wondering whether it is Twikini's or FingerKeyboard's problem.

Anyone experienced something like this?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Soaa-:
I don't know if FingerKeyboard is still being developed, but I found registry keys that can be used to make a button to toggle between XT9 and ABC.

I prefer FingerKeyboard over EzInput because FK is faster, much faster, but the lack of a toggle button hampers its usability.

The two registry keys in question are in \HKLM\Software\Tegic\eT9\IME. ContextAwareSetting must be set to 0, and then TextInputMode can be toggled to turn XT9 on and off.

Of course, for all this to work, XT9SupportMSSip must be set to 1.

Now the thing is, TextInputMode flicks itself to 0 sometimes when switching apps. A toggle button on the keyboard would be a good solution. If the current keyboard can modify registry keys through key presses, we can already implement this. If not, then I hope a new version of FK which can will be released.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] d3sm0nd:
I hope they release a new version soon... bug when rotating is still there (white pixel on the screen above,left side)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] samusalo:
Please could someone who understands how to edit the layout files to check if there is anything to correct this?

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] samusalo:
Yes! It works! Many thanks :D

No problem. For some reason, the ASDFG keys were all missing definitions for output, so unsurprisngly, they didn't work as expected.

Hi,

I have a problem in wvga romanian keyboard layout. In landscape mode, for long press key (f, î), should write "î" and show ":î". Why?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Tatsch:
Confirming, also in portrait mode.

Workaround - Settings: "Show menu bar" in portrait/landscape mode.

Hope that they can fix it, need more space on display. ;)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Soaa-:
I don't mind the pixel bug so much; I just wish there can be an XT9/ABC switch implemented as I described in the previous page. D;

Hi there!

Chris Cross made once a version without arrows and bigger keys. I unzipped both of the WVGA folders into the Skins directory because I wanted to see which one looks better, but I cannot select one of the skins in the Fingerkeyboard Program.

Are the skins much too old to fit with the actual FK?

Device is a HTC Topaz (Touch Diamond 2)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] yaboistarr:
Someone pleaseeeeee, pleaseeeeee create a vertical fullscreen keyboard, having a fullscreen horizontal keyboard doesnt make any sense when you have a qwerty keyboard.............but to top it off it would be the greatest if it could be just about see through with like 30% opacity, which would allow you to see what your typing. This would make one hand usage way better with phones like xperia.....

I instelled the Giannis (without arrows) Version of the FingerKeyboard 2.1 on my Touch HD a few minutes ago. After installing everytime I try to open the Keyboard, my HD shows a Pop-up with a "Skinerror". Has anyone solved this problem?

Thanks in advance for quick support!

Rgds!

Just replace this file (only made for QVGA ang VGA) device\program files\fingerkeyb\skins\skin-02-vga-port-12-dan.txt
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
It's because you probably installed the wrong version. HD is WVGA.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
No, FingerKeyboard does not support XT9. You can have Dutch language layout selected, but it does not contain an XT9 dictionary. You can however use standard WinMo word suggestions.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
I'm not sure I understand what you mean. Fullscreen keyboard? Theoretically it can be done but to me it seems very awkward to type like that, without seeing what you're writing.

Also, I understand that users of Xperia may not be getting the 100% experience, since X1 has a rather small screen. And to make things worse, it also has a few milimeters high border around it, which makes touching the edge part of the screens even more difficult.

Fingerkeyboard was originally designed for Touch HD and I have to say I really consider it to work perfectly on such big-screen devices.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
You can add whatever symbol you want simply by using Config tool. The + symbol is included in numeric keyboard, but not on the standard eng. layout.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
Oh, and one more thing.

I have been out of contact for over a month with Exidler, which I'm sure you know by now is the main programmer and creator of original FKBD.

So, any questions and answers regarding new actions, possible new versions of FKBD etc. will have to wait until I get hold of him.

I will of course follow this thread and answer other stuff if I feel the question hasn't already been answered before.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Arthenik:
Czech layout doesn't really work well, so I made my own. It features almost all the special characters and isn't all weird in landscape. Files attached.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Chris Cross:
Look at my signature with the links to my skins. In that post, there are also screenshots (portrait and landscape) of what they look like. I updated the WVGA skins in June to use with FKB 2.1. The other resolutions (from March) have not been updated yet. They should still work, but they don't take advantage of some of the new features in FKB 2.1.

Below is a picture of the skin I use. I removed the arrows (they appear only in the digits layout) and I made the keys longer for increased accuracy. I hardly make mistakes with that skin!!

see note above.

When I get some time, I will update the other resolutions. I've just been extremely busy lately and haven't had time to devote to my skins.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] skulk3r:

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] lp640:
WOW ! Everything is fixed up. (good I didn't need to install SIP,)

my Opera browser works fine with it (unlike some people had it crash)

and it seems to give my phone a new overall feel and look. (looks similar to the Android or iPhone keyboard and the default Windows Mobile keyboard is a real overall shocker when it comes to big buttons and appearance)

thanks guys for your fantastic work ! Keep it up ! :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] solarbird:
Is there anyone who created WVGA finger keyboar without arrows? I use this keyboard and it is fantastic, but it will be better if we can use it without arrows
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Chris Cross:
This has been asked quite often. Please use "search this thread" next time. It will save us all from repeating information over and over again.

You can look at my signature for skins without arrows. Just follow the link.

You can also edit your own skin files (any file) to hide the arrows. It will take you less than a minute to do that.

You can read my post here for instructions on how to do that.

I personally love my portrait skin with no arrows and longer keys (at least for the Touch HD). I know... I'm a bit bias. :) But seriously - I hardly make any mistakes typing. The longer keys make a big difference.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] pockkie:
Hey Chris Cross, thanx for your hard work. Your keyboard looks great and I would love to type horizontally with my touch HD.

The thing is I just installed Duttys HD WM6.5 R4 based on the Topaz/Rhodium OEMs and WM6.5 Core and when I tried to installed your keyboard, it just says the installation was unsuccessful. Can you adapt your keyboard to make it work with this ROM or WM6.5 in general? Thanx in advance for your efforts.

There are a lil bit more questions though. I tried to turn on WM default auto word filling but cannot find it...can you tell me how to do it and is there any chance your keyboard will support Japanese or Thai?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] solarbird:
Thank you very much Chris Chross, i have copyed your .txt file and it works perfectly :)

The only thing I would like to change is that when you hide a bar, you can't hide a keyboard. It will be nice if we could hide keyboard by holding backspase key for example. I was looking at .txt file but i dont see and dont know how to do it. Can you tell me if this is not a problem? And again, thx for help :)
