These are some awesome looking keyboards, top notch work!

I was wondering if you could port the ferrari kb to hero, as i am running kings 1.8 hero, and these dont work with it lol. thanks in advance!
[Android Themes] brian_v3ntura:
not trying to take the spotlight off from beagz...but i too do VK keyboards but i take a different approach

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=572362

maybe this will take off a load of burden from beagz and let him breath. idk. it seems like he does get a lot of request.

if beagz doesnt want this post on here then i will gladly take it off =)
[Android Themes] beagz:
I tried this and the glo doesn't work for some reason. I will keep trying it unless you are willing to try it and see if it works for you... let me know.

The keyboard layout is set by the HTC guys who made the keyboard. I can only change the look and color of the keys (still not the text color)

This should work. here is a link.

[Android Themes] beagz:
Just to say. You can post whatever you want if you are contributing to the community. I lay no exclusive claim to this. I am skinning a keyboard, if you wish to add to that project by all means!! You have my best wishes. Keep up the good work!

Thank you for pitching in.

BTW if someone can give some feedback if the keyboards I already ported are working properly so I can keep porting them. Thanks in advance.
[Android Themes] eessel:
I tried out the red keyboard on akirah 3.0, and it worked fine for me. And sure, i don't mind the glo. I just like the look of that keyboard. I liked it green when it did glo cuz i use hero themes a lot. But yeah, i'm willing to try. Thanks a lot, beagz! I really appreciate it!
[Android Themes] milenko11:
Any chance we get this working on Cyan 4.1.999?
[Android Themes] beagz:
Thanks for the feedback. There seems to be an issue with the keyboard. The dn.9.png versions of the keys do not get displayed. It appears to overlay with a dark transparent box only. That's why the glow doesn't work (it isn't using the drawables.)

Did you try it. These are the keyboards that Cyanogen said to use with his rom. Please test one of the 4 I have posted and report back. Thanks.
[Android Themes] milenko11:
Ok sorry. I just now noticed only 4 are compatible for now. I installed blurple and it worked fine. Any chance you could fix a black one?
[Android Themes] beagz:
Great. Thanks for the feedback. The black ones will not have the glow as stated above. So will that be ok? I will keep porting since at least the regular keys work and you can get the look you want. Even though I am disappointed that the pressed keys (that show glow and possibly other effects) do not work. :(
[Android Themes] milenko11:
No glow is fine.
[Android Themes] beagz:
Since you are such a sport...

I really appreciate you taking the time to help out. And because you understand that since I lack the source I cannot change anything other than key color.

I did these for you right away.

Gloss Black and Dark Hero v2.0

If you had another black one in mind let me know and I will gladly do it.
[Android Themes] milenko11:
I wouldn't mind the lime and black one. Thanks!
[Android Themes] milenko11:
Nevermind it looks like thats the same without the glow.
[Android Themes] milenko11:
You don't have to do it now, but a black version of the no keys one would be pretty cool sometime.
[Android Themes] beagz:
that may be tough with the black text. I will see what I can do. Maybe if I do a minimal highlight I can pull something off.
[Android Themes] eessel:
got it. Does this mean that the whole keyboard doesn't work right now, or is it just the glow that doesn't work? Cuz if it's just the glow, i can live without it. :) Thanks again
[Android Themes] beagz:
Keyboards work. Just glow effects on keypress do not appear. So you get the look but no glow/highlight on keypress (just darker keys)
[Android Themes] eessel:
I'll take it! Lol :)
[Android Themes] sauudmir:
i installed the latin black and its giving me foreclose no matter what i do

is this even compatible with cyan 4.1.999? am using enochx theme
[Android Themes] eessel:
the ones with the pictures on the first post do not work with cyan 4.1.999 yet. The only ones that work with donut are the ones highlighted in blue(linked without pictures) at the top of first post, right before you get to the pictures. I suggest asking him to port the latin black keyboard to cyan 4.1.999, if that's the one you wanted. But remember, you have to ask nicely or else..haha. jk. :p

Hope that helps! :)
[Android Themes] sauudmir:
can u please port the latin black keyboard to cyan 4.1.999 i'm dying to use it
[Android Themes] beagz:
I will be doing all current requests. Some have been waiting a while.. (thanks) and your new ones late tonight and tomorrow morning (monday) Thanks again. You guys deserve it.

:)
[Android Themes] gtrplr71:
I have tried it both ways using astro and extracting apk force closes everytime I am on cyan 4.1.999 no theme. What to do next? I have tried unistalling and reinstaling fix_permissions Cant seem to get it to take.

[Android Themes] smackiesfunkies:
man i cant believe i stumbled upon this thread now

ive been lookin for some keyboard skins

are these for 1.6 yet? the newest CM 4.2.2

i cant remember if 4.1.9999 was already donut lol

if so then they should work for 4.2.2 right?
[Android Themes] sauudmir:
the one he posted above can be used on 4.2.2

i'm using em :)
[Android Themes] smackiesfunkies:
right on thanks for the info man :]

loves me some colored keyboards!

specially since its the htc keyboard

i hate the stock one lol
[Android Themes] jerzy448:
nice looking keyboard. installed on cyan 4.2.3.1 and no problems worked like a charm.
[Android Themes] Rescue7:
A while ago I had asked you if you can make me an Umbrella Keyboard from Resident Evil, and I'm wondering if you can port it to Android 1.6? I loved the KB. :D
[Android Themes] beanboi:
i followed your instruction to a T but i don't have the colored keyboard. i didn't have touch input so i installed, i checked touch input but no dice. Everything I'm running is in my sig and i tried using the red one. thanks in advance for any help.

Edit: nevermind guys i totally didn't know that i had to uncheck the android keyboard. working perfectly now, great work sir
[Android Themes] smackiesfunkies:
LOVE these keyboards

[Android Themes] crizznaig:
really wish I coudl get these to work... any of them.

Everytime I install the keyboard... I get force closes...

not sure why, but seems to be consistent with every keyboard i've tried..

any suggestions?
[Android Themes] nolsen311:
Hi-Res

This may be asking a lot, but would you mind doing at least one version that has images that scale well to the higher-res screens that are/will-be present in Droid and/or HTC Dragon?

I love the HTC_IME and have installed it on my Droid, but the jaggy graphics could use some work...

Frankly, I wouldn't even mind if there were nothing "special" about the high-res, other than being smoothed out, but transparent would be pretty frickin awesome.

Thanks!
[Android Themes] chucky80:
Thanks a lot!

I just wanna say thanks a lot for these awesome works you have done. I must say that these keyboards kills better keyboard on the market. I will be installing the hello kitty one for my wife's MT3G. Thanks to you.
[Android Themes] beagz:
Thank you all for your support. I am currently on vacation and will be getting these done soon. I need more info on the Droid. Maybe a screenshot might help.

Unless you send me a Droid (Jk) :)
[Android Themes] CaptainPointless:
Hey, I've followed the instructions to the letter, several times, with different keyboards, and for whatever reason, it's just not taking any effect. I go through, deactivate touch input, uninstall the previous HTC_IME using Astro, reinstall the new HTC_IME, reactivate touch input. Am I doing something wrong? It doesn't matter what I do, the keyboard stays the same as the original that came with the SystemForce-3 theme. If it helps at all, I'm running the Cyan 4.2.8 that was released yesterday, and the corresponding SystemForce-3 theme.
[Android Themes] Ace42:
Yes you much disable the android input first.
[Android Themes] CaptainPointless:
As I stated, I deactivated the touch input.
[Android Themes] latinlegacy:
thanks i like this
[Android Themes] dmm0816:
did you ever get it to work? i'm having the same problem, tried 2 diff keyboards a few times and no luck... anybody have and suggestions? i'm using cm 4.2.11.1 and the minus theme
[Android Themes] shady503403:
i get the same thing.. also running 4.2.11 and minus theme.. no luck getting it to work and i hate the original white keyboard.. hopefully you can get this fixed soon. :)

if you dont have time or just dont want to can yo utell ho to update them please i really want them

i having a trouble installing s thats why i

or im no doing it right

thank you very mch
[Android Themes] ccriffman:
I will tell you why- Because somewhere from about 4.2.8 on up, the keyboard is the LatinIME.apk, not the HTC_IME.apk. And you can't just rename it. You must take a LatinIME.apk and put these images into it, including the new names of the files, etc. I am in the process of trying to get these colors done, but it will take me time. But installing these HTC_IME.apk's will not do it- Chris
[Android Themes] ace101225:
hello im new to the whole phone mod thing. now i downloaded astro and i downloaded the files and whatnot but every time i try and use the keyboard it gives me a force close screen i have a g1 that has been rooted it has donut and im running the dark dream theme. any help?
[Android Themes] :
Yeah...... Read through the thread.
[Android Themes] dmm0816:
ohhh, i didn't even know that but it makes sense...thanks for the explanation cause i really started to think it was just my phone.
[Android Themes] taiowa72:
Need help installing

I love your creative keyboard skins although I had a problem installing them. I went to the 4shared site to download the zip file. But when I transfered the zip file to my SD card and them viewed them with ASTRO the file came up HTC_IME instead, when I tried to browse the file. Can we no longer use the zip files or your keyboard any more??? :(
[Android Themes] taiowa72:
Can you tell me how to open the .zip files?
[Android Themes] taiowa72:
I'm new to this forum and the MyTouch 3G android that I have. I came across these awesome keyboards and was wondering how do you open the .zip files. I put them on my SD card and then when I went to view and install them I got an error message that said:

Notice from ASTRO

java.i.o.FileNotFoundException: /sdcard...

Can anyone offer any suggestions for what I am doing wrong????
[Android Themes] taiowa72:
I need help installing the skins. I have the Touch Imput already installed. How do I unzip the .zip files? Do I download them to my computer or what??
[Android Themes] sluck13:
Help

Hey ive got two questions

the first is do you think you can make me a keyboard with a sports teams logo on it or something along that line

and two is does anyone know a good site to make themes (ahome) i found a site and my theme looked good but after i put it on my phone it didnt work well

ps thanks for making these great themes im am curently using the gloss black one and i am very impressed

if it maters i have an htc dream (G1)
[Android Themes] taiowa72:
HELP!

Sluck13, how did you install your keyboard theme??:o
[Android Themes] tom_me:
Great work man. got gloss black on my new black mytouch and it looks sexy.

people having problems just download straight from phone then use astro to extract the .zip then look for the folder you extract open it then youll see the .apk in there the cliick on it install done... go to locale and text and check touch input and you are good to go

[Android Themes] cjward23:
Seriously this thread is has been active for over a year. This keyboard skins are for the donut keyboard. Are you really still on donut?
[Android Themes] priide:
Any way you can speed up the response time of the on screen typing?
[Android Themes] fairymaru:
Beagz is there a way you can do tha Android + keyboard with transparent background...it has the black snake skin background right? can you make it transparent...(to make it look chameleon)?:o
[Android Themes] fairymaru:
my bad again double post.....grrrrrrrrrrrrrr
[Android Themes] beagz:
As much as I would like to, I cannot do a transparent key or semi-transparent (like chameleon) with a transparent background. I can do transparent (or semi-transparent) with a solid background. I can also do a solid key with a fully transparent background (but not semi-transparent). But sadly I cannot do both. I attempted it and it looks good until you start typing. Not practical.

I really wish I could but it is a limitation of the program. :(
[Android Themes] eessel:
Thansk a whole lot! Btw, I was wondering if you could do a green glow of the blue glow one. Like instead of making it have a blue glow when the keys were pressed, make it have a green glow. Thanks a whole lot for a job well done on this as well as all your other works! :)
[Android Themes] beagz:
Ok, give me a few days. I will get that done.
[Android Themes] Daneshm90:
Yea so cud u do one with this keyboard from xRom and just make the background around the keys and the rest invisible ? so only the keys remain ? heres a pic
[Android Themes] turboyo:
Yea i think black with white letters would look good.. that black with black is a little to hard .. sick skins tho man im using poisin for now!! BTW cyanogens htc ime keyboard doesnt have the stupid text pop out when typing from the hard keyboard, dont know if you want to move your themes to that one.. I copied your drawable to his and signed it and it works perfect :) .. wish there was a way to make the keys all evenly bigger :/
[Android Themes] oshizzle1991:
have any of these been ported to cyanogen 4.0.1?

i did search so dont yell at me i just dont know if these keyboards are universal (meaning they work on all roms...but of course you knew that) but i mean these are the SICKEST KEYBOARDS I HAVE SEEN SO FAR. kudos to the OP. nice job.
[Android Themes] beagz:
Thanks. And they can work on any rom that does not use the .odex format.(Hero and Ion)

Some roms have built in support so all you need to do is copy the HTC_IME.apk into the system/app folder. Others do not have the support so you need the .so file placed into system/lib as well (the file is in the lib folder of the apk). If tell me which ROM you use I can tell you if it will work or not. I can also make an installer if you need one so that all you have to do is flash.
[Android Themes] beagz:
Sorry, I have no control over the application. It is closed source (being from HTC)

I really don't feel I have the needed time to skin another keyboard. I know that is the new pinyin ime and saw that done. But I am working on some other things ATM. Perhaps I may change my mind in the near future.
[Android Themes] Alleviate:
What would I have to do in order to get one of these keyboards running on the latest CyanogenMod? I haven't really worked with any themes and keyboards since I've been on a Hero ROM ever since I rooted my G1. Thanks :).
[Android Themes] oshizzle1991:
Beagz i am using cyanogen 4.0.1

sorry for the caps but it was the fastes way to get your attention..and idk what the heck you ment when you went all techy on me. lol. i understand rooting but pulling different files and stuff...its alien to me lol. i dont have ADB is taht a problem? or can i just install from my sd card?
[Android Themes] HighRidas:
could you make the limeblack keyboard for jacxherov1.3
[Android Themes] doubleokneegro:
hey beagz u got a second? i got a project for ya if your interested...

got any keyboards that may fit with this? or that you may be willing to produce? ;-)
[Android Themes] beagz:
If you can wait until tonight I will post an installer update.zip file to flash them.

dude how do u put the keyboards on the phone, i tried using home+power but i didnt work
[Android Themes] oshizzle1991:
i have no problem waiting

its not like my whole life depends on me getting these keyboards. i know you are a busy dev and i thank you for all the work that you put into your ideas.
[Android Themes] blackmamba22:
how to u put keyboard on the phone?
[Android Themes] rom116:
Larger keys

A layout with larger white keys that glowed green or light blue would be tight
[Android Themes] isikh:
May I request LatinSil80 White for 3.9.11.2 aka Cyanogen's experimental, and how would I apply this keyboard?
[Android Themes] doubleokneegro:
thanx beagz is workin on a keyboard for this.. i have a thread open for the theme affectionately named "District 9" lol

will post pic of keyboard on there, but the assumption is beagz will showcase his new keyboard on here with the clock also :-)
[Android Themes] blackmamba22:
how do u apply these keyboard updates to the phone??????
[Android Themes] doubleokneegro:
well for me im making a theme and using his work and incorporating it as default in my case... but from what i remember you download the link, i believe it is an update.zip or you should rename to update.zip and flash... if not, a push might be neccessary..

ill look at and try my luck or you and let u kno what i did, unless someone clarifies it for you sooner:)
[Android Themes] beagz:
For these just extract the HTC_ime.apk and do

Adb remount

Adb push HTC_IME.apk system/app

Adb shell rm system/sd/app/HTC_IME.apk

Adb shell rm data/app/HTC_IME.apk

Adb shell reboot

Or from terminal

Mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

Cp *yourdir*/HTC_IME.apk system/app

rm data/app/HTC_IME.apk

rm system/app/HTC_IME.apk

reboot
[Android Themes] beagz:
If instructions do not get it working let me know which Rom you use.
[Android Themes] sir*mez:
beagz the keyboard king!!
[Android Themes] JimmyJayCEO:
I would have thought that flashing them would work, but I'll try this way. Where should I input all this code? Sorry I'm pretty good at understanding this stuff, just having a LONG day at work and complete brain overload. :eek:

On another note your keyboards are SICK. I dont know how you do it, but you definitely do it. I'm running the SmorgWhite theme right now and not really sure which keyboard I wish to use h....... I've also noticed you getting hit up for a lot of your work with the new themes coming out. I'm considering creating my own theme pretty soon, and would be honored by a keyboard from you. This may take me some time to develop, since it'll be my first one, but I will let you know how it's coming along and see if you're interested. Thanks :D:D
[Android Themes] turboyo:
You guys can install the keyboard with astro, app manager or any one of those types of apps. Just download them from here extract it from the zip and put the apk on your sd card.. from there just install straight from the phone very very simple
[Android Themes] beagz:
Use adb from a computer running xp vista or 7 (command line with sdk tools)

Use terminal from the terminal emulator on the phone.
[Android Themes] JimmyJayCEO:
alright cool. Thanks man I have both of those programs already. When I saw it was a .apk I kinda figured that I could do it that way, but just wanted to make sure. :D:D:D
[Android Themes] JimmyJayCEO:
alright cool Beagz. The way the other guy responded by using astro or app manager would work too right?
[Android Themes] beagz:
since they work from data/app it should work. My install was for those that have a theme that comes preloaded with the stock HTC IME vk. Again, if you have any problems just let me know and include the ROM you use. (and theme if you have one.)
[Android Themes] blackmamba22:
where am i extracting it to? im using cyanogen 4.01, and how do u flash the cyanogen recovery image 1.4??
[Android Themes] All~G1:
If you have adb running put it into that directory. and run the commands listed.

@Beagz.... Thanks for the ferrari bro! Looks sweet. Took it for a test drive and it "handles" well too! ;)
[Android Themes] BlackElvis79:
I'm really liking the VK's Beagz. By chance, you got anything to fit with this?
[Android Themes] All~G1:
I would say with that background pic go with "Ferrari". Has a carbon look background and red keys??? just my .02

Hey im having trouble installing the keyboard through ADB. My spacebar is broken so i cant do it through Terminal :\. When i try to mount the SD card it either says sbin\sh not found (or something like that) or it also says 'cannot mount blah blah blah: device or resource is busy". Any help? I'm gonna try to installing it using a file manager and see if that works.

Edit: I just tried using Appmanager and Linda FM to install the keyboard and they both gave me an error that said: input settings could not be installed. Then I downloaded Astro and when i tried to install it, it only gave me an option to uninstall.. and when i tried that it said could not be uninstalled. So I dont know what to do now..
[Android Themes] turboyo:
Uninstall your previous version of the htc_ime first, and remove it from sd if you had it backed up there.. then install the one you want from here..
[Android Themes] Alleviate:
What do you mean previous version? Where do I uninstall it from?
[Android Themes] doubleokneegro:
ill help on this one

use astro or whatever on-phone file browser that you prefer... open your

system/app/HTC_IME.apk click on it, uninstall then continue

may be data/app
