I installed FingerKeyb-2.1-WQVGA on the phone, but I can not start it, it is displayed as an icon next to the standard keyboard of windows mobile. It allows to do my settings, but I can not write with it. My phone is Sunno 240x400px. CPU 533MHz RAM 128MB ROM 256MB.What do I have to do?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] tasty_boy:
near of the simbol of keyboard in the centre of screen, you should see an arrow...then, tap and hold for 5 secs, then you will see the keyboards that are available, then choose FingerKeyboard and is it!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] infobg:
I did so, but the keyboard did not change. It remains the standard keyboard for Windows Mobile. The installation was OK, but It is impossible to use FingerKeyboard. What do I have to do?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] tasty_boy:
uninstall it, reboot the phone and then install again...

once it installed again...

go to Start > Settings > Personal > Input

then it should be there...

in mine it's working nice!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] infobg:
I tried to install the program again, but the problem is the same. I use Windows mobile 6.5 and when I go to Start> Settings> Personal> Input there are only icons of Phone, buttons and voice commands.How can I add up a program there?

I believe this has to do with the Chinese SIP included in the Rom. You will need to bring it before the developers of Finger Keyboard to see if they're planning an update to make it compatible.

Pls do this.

FingerKeyboard 2.1 doesn't seem to be working on a Vodafone branded HTC TyTN2 on WM61 that wasn't modified. I tried installing all 3 of the QVGA versions (QVGA-utak3er, QVGA-Giannis86, QVGA-arrows-Giannis86) and the keyboard IS added to the popup list of keyboards but if I choose it, it just shows the WM standard keyboard, even after a soft reset. Is WM61 not supported? Did I do something wrong? :confused::confused::confused:

Rozenthal, first thanks for the great application!

I have two minor questions:

1) How do enable less used symbols? For instance I couldn't find " | "...

2) How to use the cut/copy/paste feature? I've seen it there but I just can't get it to work :confused:

Hey guys,

I just downloaded the WVGA version for the HD2, once installed everything worked.. except for the V and B button (next to the spacebar) in landscape mode.

They don't seem to react... any clue?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] elburna:
Select "hide bar" (or somethin) in the settings. that fixes the problem but you see the lower taskbar again when FKB pops up (instead of covering it). Just a workaround. But annoying is, that the selection of contacts (for ex. when typing in the recepient of an sms) doesnt show up unless you type some letters and then press the back-button... strange but true.

Anyways on my Touch HD FKB has been my companion for along time and i was always satified. So thnx Rozenthal for such a great application. Im asking myself if there will be a slightliy updated, bugfixed version for HD2 in the future :) ...
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] henkie32:

Let's hope idd for a bugfixed version in the future! :)

When i type some letters of a contact were it says To: in SMS, the search function is dead.

Any suggestions?

Problem on HTC HD2

A colleague of mine recommended your great app... he's got a HD, I have a HD2

I get the following problems:

- with or without T9 enabled in the HTC keyboard, the standard and SMS suggestions do not work -- I get no suggestions whatsoever

- with T9 enabled in the HTC keyboard, if FGK is set to English typing Q gets me A, and A gets me Q, same if FGK is set to French...

I need something that supports English and French layouts, with word suggestions (preferably HTC's T9 ones) in English and French (depending on the layout I use)

Any clue?

P.S I have an HTC standard French ROM 1.48.x

Hello, my English is not very good, so I apologize in advance.

My question is: esiste any keyboard that only has four direction keys (up, down, left and right) to install in htc touch hd, ie something like the qwerty but with only four buttons at the bottom is , For the rest of the keyboard did not tape the games and can move around the screen only with those direction buttons.

Thank you very much and best regards.

arrow only skin wvga black gray

I've modded the black-gray color scheme. Just copy the txt files and the folder (from the zip file) to "\program files\fingerkeyboard\skins" to your device. Start FK Settings and select your language layout + arrows_Mod and the new color scheme like in the screen:

And this is how it looks like:

Edit: You can actually use the arrow skins with another color schemes, just copy the pictures from other schemes in the folder arrows_Mod on your device in "\program files\fingerkeyboard\skins". But the arrows will be still in gray black.

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] DarkPrinceByWWW:
Which explorer are you actually using? I can see all the folder also from my PC with standard windows explorer.

In the start menu on your device you should find the finger keyboard link file. You actually should have used this link file to start the finger keyboard options. With Total Commander you should navigate in \windows\start menu\programs\..... See the properties of the link file to find the finger keyboard folder.

Just another question: Are you using a not English Rom? You should know that program files folder is renamed to a folder dependent on the language of your Rom. For German Roms you have to search for \Programme\.... and so on. Don't say me that you're using a non English Rom and really search for a folder called \program files\... :eek:

Hd2 - Same Problem...

Hello,

im using Finger Keyboard 2.1 on a HTC HD2 WM 6.5.

I've also the big Problem, that both buttuns (V & B) at the sides of the "space" button didnt work...

Theres the well knows trick (Options -> Landscape -> switch from "Hide bar" to "show bar").

When i do this, the both buttons work, but the windows mobile menu (with the Send & Menu-Buttons) come back. Doesn't look very fine and there's much less space on the screen, because the keyboard is much higher with th win-Menu at the bottom...

That really sucks =)

Does anyone find a solution? I know that every HD2-user got this prob...

Thx & Greetz,

a frustrated HD2 user ;)

PS.: I' using the correct WVGA - 800x480 version...
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Bardabus:

I have installed the FingerKeyb-2.1.408 VGA (Arrows) by Giannis86.cab (I believe this is the latest version of the software) on an Acer DX900 with the latest official Acer ROM (A147.040.0553), but I am still experiencing a problem with the Greek letter "k" ("κ"). When I am typing in minuscules, the Greek "k" letter is always being typed as a capital!

Furthermore, when I am typing minuscule vowels with accent ("ά", "έ", "ή", "ό", etc), an ";" character appears automatically next to the typed letter!

Any suggestions on how to fix those problems?

Thank you in advance!

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] DarkPrinceByWWW:
The really one solution is to let the bottom bar appear again! Just see the FK options.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] pryde:
Isn't it possible to rearrange the buttons, so the space between "v" and "b" is not in use. I mean, who needs those arrow keys in the middle? If they were gone there would be enough space for "v", "b" and "space" without occupying that certain malfunctioning area.

back after a long time

Hello to everyone!

I see that this thread is still very alive, and since I have been away from the forums for a rather long time, I have now refreshed the 1st post, removed broken images and will try to catch up with current affairs in the thread.

I have received many questions about possible new versions of FKBD. Me and Exilder have concluded long time ago that v2.1 is "final" as far as Windows Mobile 6.1 is concerned and I have managed to use it without problems on several WinMo 6.5 devices as well.

I can say for sure that we will not be making any changes as far as these two operating systems are concerned. When Windows Phone 7 goes live, we may give it a go and adapt to a new OS, but I'm not making any promises.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
Do a small test.

Go to SMS and try typing a name, for example John.

Type "John" and then use backspace to delete last letter "h". Do suggestions show up?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] kilrah:
I've got an HD2 as well, and there is one particularly annoying bug, that when the bottom bar is removed the system SIP setting menu still works "through" FK. so in landscape when pressing space with the right thumb it won't press space, but rather bring the SIP selection menu... same with the left arrow key in portrait.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] DarkPrinceByWWW:
You can use my skin. I've tried to avoid this issue with a large space button. See my thread@pocketpc.ch

http://www.pocketpc.ch/software-tou...ard2-1-modproject-neue-skins-und-layouts.html

English layouts also available now :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] DarkPrinceByWWW:
This issue is the mostly one disscused in the thread! You have to unhide the bottom bar in the FK options. I think this issue is caused by sense.Since i'm using titanium roms only (without sense and htc messaging), landscape mode works very nice (now running an energy 6.5.3 titanium rom from 4 feb made by nrgz). I hope, rozenthal will do something to fix this issue :) SMS name suggestion works also well only sense/htc free roms (miri titanium rom).

Hi, i really like your keyboard and i think the shorcuts are very usefull

Only one bug i have there.

In portrait mode it works OK, but in landscape doesnt works very good button B and V.

And i like the direction button in midle. In this way are buttons more friendy to my fingers. I dont use manila. I use SPB mobile sheel but it is based on max manila with big buttons and cros button to close apps in down - right corner.

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] DarkPrinceByWWW:
You'll find the layout files in "\programs\FingerKeyb\skins". For example skin-02-wvga-port-01-eng.txt for portrait and skin-02-wvga-land-01-eng.txt for landscape (wvga is the resolution of my device). So you have to create new layout files like skin-02-wvga-port-21-dutch.txt and skin-02-wvga-land-21-dutch.txt. In the attached file you will find some info which should help you to understand the existing layouts and to create the new two.
