This onscreen keyboard is simply amazing, awsome job you did here Exidler/Rozenthal, best onscreen keyboard i have come across, keep up the good work guys.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Cythrelo:
I'm REALLY enjoying this keyboard so far, thank you for all the hard work you put into it! :D

I do have a small feature request if it's not too much trouble. Would it be possible to create a setting that will lock the first key your finger touches as the only key that you can press? For example, if I put my finger down on the "c" key and the slide my finger over to x, it won't work with this setting on.

I've found at least 75% of my typos come from accidentally sliding my finger just far enough left or right to select the key next to the one I wanted when I'm releasing the key, so this would make typing MUCH more accurate for me. I don't know if anyone else feels the same way, but maybe it wouldn't be too difficult to implement anyway?

Hi. I just came across this. I would like to try your keyboard program. Thank you.

I have a Palm Treo 800w. The resolution is 320 x 320. I don't know which one to download. The closest sounds like the QVGA 320 x 240. Will that be ok on my screen?

Also - you wrote above that you have a hebrew language keyboard. I am interested in that. Which ones should I download to try? Thanks very much.

SOS! Finger Keyborad Causes On-Screen Artefact?

SOS! On HTC Diamond I from time to time experience an artefact, a small square of the color of Finger Keyboard skin in the corner of the display (near Start button). When rotating, artefact rotates, too! And again appears near Start button. It also exists in HTC Album. Also seems like it appears/disappears periodically. Seems to appear only if 'Hide Bar' option is selected. Could someone help me to eliminate this artefact? Finger Keyboard's option to hide bar is AMAZING! I really love it and need it... but this ugly artefact... SOS!

Issues with HTC stock ROM WM 6.5 Sense 2.1

Hi, I used FKB a long time in WM 6.1, great SIP! Thanks! :) But now in WM 6.5 in Topaz (diamond 2) with stock ROM WM 6.5 Sense 2.1 by HTC there critical issues:

1. Install process seems to not ending, there are two windows open, the install window and the configurator window (this on the top). (only small issue)

2. After having installed FKB seems to work, but there is no possibility to change keyboard again. All changes will be ignored, even after softreset.

3. Typing the name of a person in "To"-field of sms does not show suggestions of persons like the original HTC-keyboard does.

Is there a planning for further development or is development already stopped? Thanks for reply! ;)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Terrarist:
Dunno what's happened but all of a sudden it won't start on my Polaris. When I select it i get the default windows mo keyboard. Soft resets and tweaking the program settings don't have any effect.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Martinhdk:
Tried that too. Nothing to do but to delete and reinstall from beginning...
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Duron23:

Which version for Jade??

Can anyone please advice, which version of FingerKeyb-2.1-QVGA to be installed for Jade (HTC Touch 3g). I'm primarily looking for using it in Landscape mode.

And what is the difference between the following three version/.cab's:

FingerKeyb-2.1-QVGA-utak3er.cab

FingerKeyb-2.1-QVGA-Giannis86.cab

FingerKeyb-2.1-QVGA-arrows-Giannis86.cab

I tried to find locate the difference, but couldn't find it.

If this question has already been answered, sorry for asking it again rather than going thru 100+ pages.

Thanks in advance!!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Terrarist:
Still isn't working.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Biffy:
Does anyone have any advice on how I can use the CTRL key on a WVGA HD2?

Also a suggestion for the developers would be to expand the text shortcut feature used for "www" etc. to allow multi-line entries. As I would love to be able to use this for composing emails and just press one key to insert for example:

"Kind regards,

Biffy"

With a single keypress and would gladly donate for this feature as it would save a lot of time. Or can it be done already through editing some files?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Martinhdk:
Easily done. For example "skin-02-wvga-port-01-dan" and change the letter on the upper key like:

BEFORE:

Key 2 2 47 70 2,2,4,2 key0 key1 q,1,Q,#	SC:q,SC:1,SC:Q,SC:#

AFTER:

Key 2 2 47 70 2,2,4,2 key0 key1 q,1,Q, hellou there	SC:q,SC:1,SC:Q,SC:#

You can actually make a skin that only contain buttons with words, that you load by pressing the "next layout" button.

All can be done by editing the text files. It takes a little to now the system but then everything is rather easy. BUT there is no real guide for it, just some hints in the thread that are very useful.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Biffy:
Wow thanks Martin, that could be really useful. Just one question though, how could I do line breaks?

Would it be as simple as: hello \n u there?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Martinhdk:
Dont really know. Dont think you can as there is no code between the kommas.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Biffy:
That's a pity. I've tried \r\n and \n but neither work. Otherwise this is the perfect solution for inserting commonly used phrases super-quick.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Terrarist:
It just hit me, i read something about long pressing the keyboard icon to enable/disable the fingerkb. Could that be what's causing mine not to load even after repeated uninstallations?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] butatx:
Just curious :confused:

can a creator of this great kyboard make only one single cab, that mean that we can choose at setting whether we want the arrows or not, just by tick it at setting....sometime i feel i want that arrows, sometime i didn't ;)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Martinhdk:
Sounds very strange. I simply dont get it.

Can you open options?

Can you choose FK at all?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Martinhdk:
Have to be the developer that makes that- and as it is now I dont think its possible. BUT you can take a KB and remove the bottom buttons by editing the SKIN file (rather easy) and the select those two KB under OPTIONS. Then you can jump from one to the other by pressing NEXT LAYOUT button.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Terrarist:
Yea I can open FK's options but when I select it to type all i get is the default windows keyboard
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Martinhdk:
HMHM... I have no clue. Seems to be some registry that is corrupted. Have you tried to make FK your main keyboard. Have seen that possibility somewhere..
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Terrarist:
Yea with SIPChange. Done it and still :(

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Terrarist:

I don't. Especially when I've got it all set up (with the exception of fbk). Actually messing around with softresets, registering and unregistering has brought it back. Am fearing the next softreset which am guessing will stop it working again.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Martinhdk:
Regarding FLASH. Go for SASHIMI. One setup and a flash is almost done by itself. On a new flash I have to start SASHIMI and my entire device is setup by itself... and that includes wifi connections, codes for programs, settings, Tomtom, registry tweaks, Pim, Sip and whatever.

I sometimes flash my device on the way to work and when I arrive I have a fresh install..;)

But yeah..without its a bummer to flash but it sounds as the only way, so spend some time with SASHIMI and you are clear to become a XDA FLASHAHOLIC :cool::D

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Chris Cross:
Recent quote from an otherwise obsolete thread - therefore I will answer here:

That line defining the new bmp file should already exist in the landscape types txt file I provided. Simply copy the bmp file into the corresponding scheme folders. The skin files can then call for "spc2" as the image to show in the given key's location.

If you are using the WVGA resolution, then the space bar is exactly 139 pixels! If should not interfere with any other keys.

If the skin file shows the following:

Key 294 153 66 62 2,2,8,2 key0 key1 v,',V,paste, SC:v,SC:',SC:V,AC:Paste

Key 367 153 139 62 2,2,8,2 spc2 spc1 ,, ACTION.Space

Key 513 153 66 62 2,2,8,2 key0 key1 b,TEXTcomma,B,TEXTcomma, SC:b,SC:,,SC:B,SC:,

The the V key should not be affected by the space bar. As you see, the V starts at position 294 and then it is 66 wide, which means it ends at position 360. Notice that the space bar is set to start at position 367. So, these two should NOT overlap. Check to make sure you didn't change anything.

If you don't see the space bar, it is either because:

- The bmp image was not copied into the scheme folders

OR

- The landscape types file was not overwritten with mine.

You shouldn't have to change any of the code. Simply copy and paste all the files I provided. The txt files go in the skins folder, and the bmp images go in the scheme folders.

Just downloaded this and it works great on my HD (much better than the built in keyboard)... However, my left arrow doesn't seem to work and very oftem presseing the down key the cursor will move left.

It's not a great issue as I can always tap the screen where I want the cursor to go but it would be nice if there was a fix ...

PS Search turned up nothing on this but I can't believe I'm the only one ...

Cooking

Hi all, I have asked this before but sadly no replies. How do you cook Fingerkeyboard and all the skins using evk? I have tried the skins in their own folders (blackblue\blackgrey etc etc) inside the 'files' folder, tried them in a skins folder - no matter where they are they crash evk i presume cos the filenames are the same for the images. I have edited the app.dat file to point to the folder dir - still crashing. I can cook fine if i don't add the other skins but i want to add extra ones - how do you do this? BTW, i have downloaded FingerKeyb-2_1-QVGA-arrows-Giannis86.cab and created the package with package creator.

Any help appreciated.

I have had constant problems with VGA arrows version of this on my Diamond 2 since using the latest Leo based Roms and Manila 2.5...

for starters, using this app with HTC's built in crappy messaging software causes the cursor to jump backwards on some predefined shortcuts like certain smilieys and stuff like the "..." really annoying! With Window's standard messaging app, no such issues! Also, for some reason, ANY word that starts with I has the I capitalized! How do I get rid of this??? For example, If I wrote... "I am getting Impatient", the I in impatient automatically gets capitalized! What am I doing wrong? :( Even after hard resets, further ROM changes and reinstallations, nothing seems to help! Can somebody help me with this "I" issue please? :(

I too get the I issue. Also on a manilla 2.5 ROM.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Philhellene:
I have a manilla HD2 with just the % power and 4 column Start menu hacks.

Most times, when the HD2 comes out of standby the keyboard is frozen and the only way to be able to get a working keyboard is to soft reset the phone. Any one else seeing this problem? (I tried searching Forums but haven't come across the issue).
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] alexhockey:

I am using htc touch diamond and this is not happening with it's regular keyboard.

Welcome to the community bro! Would have to say the ultimate mod would be flashing to a cooked Rom as they are so far superior to that of the stock Rom.

I'm using the WQVGA on my Incite and I really like it, but the keys are too small and there's a bar at the top that is lag displaying the selection bubbles.

Also can I remove that up/down/left/right bar that's on the bottom? I don't need it and it's taking up space that I'd rather have as screen space or bigger keys.

Is there a way I can reorganize the keys and change their size?

Thanks,
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Chris Cross:
I recommend flashing a new ROM. Check the forum for various options - but especially to learn how to flash a new ROM. This tutorial is a MUST read.

You can also look for ROMs here. Scroll to the very bottom to find links to ROMs based on the phone you have.

I personally like Dutty's Holy Grail R0 Win 6.5 Manila 2.5 ROM for the Touch HD. There is also a version of it but with Manila 2.1.

This can be a carrier issue or more likely a ROM issue. I have tried ROMs in the past, where a certain German letter (looks like a Greek beta) was being recognized as unicode. When that happens, all it takes is one character recognized as unicode (which I believe requires 2 bytes per character instead of 1 - but don't quote me on that, I could be totally wrong), and it will cause the max number of characters allowed to drop by almost half. The only difference in my case, was that the HTC keyboard also had that problem.

Solution: Either try a different ROM, or try using the Windows Mobile application for texting instead of the HTC Manila messaging app. In my case, WM worked fine, but Manila message app didn't. In any case, now I have a different ROM (Dutty's Holy Grail R0) and Manila messaging app is not eating up my number of allowed characters.

Of course, some characters will be unicode no matter what. But the "regular" alphabet letters should be fine.

I'm not sure why that bar is showing at the top.

But to get rid of the arrows, you can simply edit that skin's txt file and add a "size" command at the top. That way, you can lower that height of the keyboard and the arrows will be hidden. Search this thread for that solution. I have answered it several times and there is even a post with detailed info on how to do it based on your individual resolution. It's easy and will only take a minute.

It's a lot like my LongKeys version from my signature. :) It does help to make the keys taller. You can type a lot more accurately.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] barty22:
Hi guys I have found a bug and I hope someone could shed some light on this. It happens with Fingerkeyboard 2.1 WVGA in landscape mode, with the option to hide the lower windows bar (to leave more screen estate for text).

The problem is that the V and B keys barely respond to key presses. All other keys respond fine, only the V and the B barely respond, they are only registered after a few tries near the edges (they don't work when clicking in the middle of the button).

Note that this problem does NOT occur when the bar is not hidden (talking about landscape), and this bug doesn't happen either in portrait mode (with hidden or showed bar).

HTC HD2 "v" and "b" key problem

Hi, overall great keyboard. installed it on my HD2 but in landscape mode (without bottom bar) the v and b key are very difficult to use. Other keys work fine.

Any solution?

Many thanks
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Pandemoniumone:
Since there hasn't been any updates for while I would recommend changing the settings to "Show bar" in landscape mode. I've noticed this bug as well but the problem goes away when you make the bottom bar visible.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] barty22:
I appreciate your good intention, but enabling the bar does not leave much vertical screen estate left for writing messages, or for me more importantly, instant messaging messages. That's what I intend to use the landscape version for, to comfortably have long chat session with people :) When I enable the bar, I can barely see 1 line of text from my friends.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] shu8i:
I've got the HTC HD2, so i installed the WVGA version, but there's a small problem... the "b" and "v" button don't work in landscape mode. (the two buttons on the right / left side of space)

__EDIT__

is there a way to get the wvga keyboard without these arrows in landscape mode? would be awesome on the hd2 :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] barty22:
I am using it on HD2, and I find the arrows in the middle a really good idea! Just use both of your thumbs, one for each side of the keyboard. Really easy typing when you have a good thumb coordination :D

It's just the stupid V and B keys which are bothering me :( FingerKeyboard is the only keyboard that allows you to hide the bar and with that it makes it the vertically smallest keyboard in landscape mode. Perfect for instant messaging!
