NOT SUPPORTED ON FROYO ..... only works on 2.1
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] :
I need this back ahhh.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] dmyke:
I love the multi touch for my evo.. know where I could find one that works for an evo..2.2 not rooted?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] oOflyeyesOo:
We all are wondering the same thing. I don't see why it hasn't been ported to 2.2 yet.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] nacienleongto:
Please enragedpaza give us back a new keyboard for froyo!!! Please!!!!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] mrvirginia:
if a dev jumps right on this i'll donate 5 bucks just like the last mod i requested...
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] enragedpaza:
I got my computer back from my friend now, and recovered from a virus. Had to start off clean, but once I get it back up today, I will get them keyboards rjmjr69 wanted out for you.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Jancy10:
Regular whit color with a Blue coloring when the buttons are pressed would be nice, please make it happen!! Lol great work....
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] enragedpaza:
I'll work on them tomorrow. Been going crazy here, with the kids.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] kevbonice:
Can't wait for this to be update, the stock keyboard is the worst!!!

Thanks so much for doing this!!!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] ajones7279:
Not seeing how the stock keyboard is that terrible, considering on 2.2 it's multitouch as well...I'm flying with it.

I am waiting for an update for this though. I never got to try it and I like the way it looks...

And it's not his fault that this keyboard hadn't been updated yet...it was made to run on 2.1 not 2.2...give it some time.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] kevbonice:
updated to run on 2.2

duh.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] sshark:
Where can I download it to run for 2.2?

This keyboard has been ported to 2.2 now! THREAD HERE

Hopefully enradedpaza can work his theming/coloring magic on it!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] ajones7279:
Thanks! I'm gonna take a look around in the apk and see if I can figure out how to theme it a little myself.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] ajones7279:
Ok so, I figured out how to change the background and highlight, but I have no idea which xml changes the key text colors or how to edit it. :(
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] marc.ientilucci:
give it a few days, the original mods were VERY popular. im sure he will get the new ported keyboard skinned in no time. until then ill just enjoy the multi-touch goodness with blood red keys
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] habitual_line_stepper:
Can't wait for the "BLACKRED" theme to be portd to the 2.2 version
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] ajones7279:
It's fine. I'm not really planning on using this one. I'm actually A LOT faster on the stock multitouch keyboard so that's what I'm going to stick with.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] i2avi:
Is there any chance this can be ported to the HTC Desire? Using 2.1, will be updating to 2.2 soon though.

I have the droid x keyboard for the desire, but there's no haptic feedback, and I'd prefer the green highlight version you have.

Thanks, and sorry if this is a dupe but the thread is rather long :rolleyes:
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] davidevan:
so

it forcloses every time i click on a place to type,have no idea

why
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] marctronixx:
more info:

are you rooted?

running froyo?

how many of these keyboard versions have you tried? and if any, did you uninstall those first before installing this one?

if you have tried other keyboard versions prior to installing this one, did you have issues with those as well?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Terrigno:
Anyway I can get the first one all black like that but with Blue for the keypress instead of green? Thank you so much boss. Great work on these!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] ahow628:
Beautiful work guys. Thanks!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] laphoneuser:
A little help please

When I installed the white keyboard (didn't try any others), the letters/numbers on the keys were EXTREMELY small.

Any idea what the deal is?

I'm using the T-Mobile Samsung Vibrant, running stock 2.1

Tried the black green one and it force closes everytime. It's the only other keyboard I have used.

Is there anyway to get this keyboard on Gingerbread? My mom just upgraded her Evo to the official Gingerbread update and keeps force closing everywhere. I uninstalled it, but she really likes this keyboard.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Joey_UFC:

Thank you! !!!! Im super excited for that :-)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] enragedpaza:
I have updated the first posts apk to be able to use haptic feedback. Also, found the folder with the xml documents that control the colors of the letters. It's under res/layout. So if anyone can take a look at them and help me figure out, I will make a black keyboard.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bmtdan:
Once again great work! If i can find the time over the next couple of days ill see if i can figure out your xml problem but thank you for nodding the haptic apk
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] super-6-1:
problem is, i get acsii when i open the xml documents. Meaning there compiled... Look.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] mikevillarroel:
Thanks for this MOD, now i can use it!!!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] enragedpaza:
yeah I have it looking similar to that too. Never seen an xml document look like that
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] _MetalHead_:
I just installed it from the first post, and haptics aren't working. Am I doing something wrong?

Also, thank you from posting this, I think I like it better than the stock keyboard.

Edit: Nevermind, I figured it out. I had to turn it on in the settings for the keyboard. Thanks again!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] enragedpaza:
I just noticed something, when in landscape the captil button looks weird when pressed. Trying to figure out why today.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bmtdan:
i never noticed that initially but its not a big deal i tend to not be in landscape that much and i virtually never use the capital button.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Sporkman:
cant get this to install for some reason
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] super-6-1:
what are the errors? and is install unknown sources checked?

I LOVE this keyboard, but no on screen punctuation/long hold for accent keys = fail.

I don't want to have to hold the period in portrait for 2 seconds everytime in need a freaking comma!

It's too bad, because it is REALLY an awesome keyboard. (although I still prefer the red version, I too would like an all Black version)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] super-6-1:
fit the xml issue?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bparod:
Thanks, i love this keyboard especially with this green. Keep up the good work.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] enragedpaza:
Na I haven't fixed the xml because I have never seen them look like that before. I know someone on here knows about it, but maybe they haven't seen the post. Really want a black keyboard to, so I will be looking into it more.

Help

I downloaded it on my phone, but it doesn't work. I clicked unknown sources, my keyboard settings show a multi-touch keyboard settings, but it still isn't working. Un-rooted evo
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] enragedpaza:
I forgot to put a step.....

Click on any field where you can input text. (example- google search widget, message) hold down until a menu comes up. Click on/scroll down to input method and select Multi-touch keyboard
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] snudel:
on desire this keyboard does not work.

ok, you can type. but the multitouch is crap.

when i try to type Shift+k using multitouch it is typing shift n.

it is always going to bottom line when trying to use multitouch.

so i think its not useable.

This isn't working for me. I don't get any error when installing but no matter how long I hold my finger down, the option to change keyboard doesn't come up. Is there another way to change the keyboard?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] enragedpaza:
That is the only way I am aware of. Try downloading the haptic multitouch keyboard someone posted earlier (Not from my original post) See if it installs and work. Did you check the box under settings/language & keyboards? The multi touch
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] stevodadevo:
Thanks, that helped. I had to enable it in Language & Keyboard. Working great!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] enragedpaza:
Man i feel dumb, I forgot to add 2 steps to post 1 when i first did the how to install part. I'm sorry for causing the unnecessary trouble for you.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Apo11on:
@ enragedpaza

Can you add voice-to-text option (microphone icon) to be available in the browser? I'm used to voice searching and saying URLs in my xScope rather than typing - no option in this keyboard
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Toisan:
thank u so much, and i install the keyboar via ADB...and it works, try it...

nice keyboard but....

How is this multi touch exactly?? I cannot press 2 keys at the same time...only one at a time....isn't a multi touch keyboard supposed to allow me to press multiple keys at once?? I don't see the point.. thanks
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] itmustbejj:
Any update on a black keyboard?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] enragedpaza:
I am trying to accomplish that but need help with the xml documents. So if you know anything about them I have attached them on this post. I believe, for letter coloor it"s under layout.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] enragedpaza:
Think it looks nice man!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] timothydoanpham:
it's multi-touch in the fact that if you leave your finger on the keyboard you can still hit other buttons at the same time. if you try to do that with the factory keyboard nothing will happen.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Rudementry:
Is there any way to modify the keyboard so that when we hold down certain keys (qwertyuiop) we can get to 1234567890 like in the stock keyboard? (and the symbols as well, I use ? too often to have to press more than one button to get to it) This is the major catch for me on the HTC keyboard, but everything else I prefer the Multi-Touch keyboard. I just would prefer not to have to click the symbol/number button every time to input my non alphabet characters. I would be more than happy to do it myself, if I only knew how.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Issey_phresh:
I'm not able to download the keyboard at all from my device..keeps saying " unable to download content not supported on this device" fully rooted EVO running Evolutionv9 custom rom and custom kernel for FPS screen fix and overclock for Nova panels...any help would be appreciated...thinking of booting into a danger rom...downloading app...backing up with titanium then rebooting back to evolution and installing .apk ....think that'll work????
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] itmustbejj:

Keyboard background

Is there a way to change the keyboard background. Black or Dark gray background with current light colored keys. This will make the keys pop more.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] enragedpaza:
Yeah it's simple, might do it today.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] enragedpaza:
Made a post on PPCGeeks to see if someone could help with the xml documents, here is the post with the respond. Now if I could just figure out how to use this........ I could get what I needed to make the black keyboard.

Button Hold for Additional Characters?

The one feature I really like about the stock HTC Keyboard is that you can hold down a key and it will addin a secondary character (like punctuation or similar things) is this possible in this keyboard? Is there a different/better method for doing this now?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] mrkmrk:
Loving this keyboard--much better looking and more responsive than the stock droid x keyboard, in ny experience. In any case, this might be a lot to ask (and is probably harder than i think it to be, since nobody has done it yet), but is there any way to hybridize this and HTC IME mod? To have all of the features of said mod, but with this sexy layout and multitouch... a man can dream, can't he?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] oOflyeyesOo:
Would you be able to get rid of the speech button next to the space bar, and spread out the space bar a bit? I Am constantly hitting it instead of space bar.

Also, the HTC IME mod, it seems to have wider keys that are so much easier to hit, maybe we could adjust this a little bit?

Edit:

I agree with the poster above me, I think we need to combine the two. Or if we can't do that, then make the HTC IME Mod so it can support multi touch, as that is a very smooth and nice keyboard.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] kidslow:
Coming from the iPhone world, I definitely like this keyboard better than the stock EVO keyboard.

One feature I would like to see added would be to double tap on the CAPS up arrow to perform a CAPS LOCK.

Otherwise, great job.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] mrkmrk:
You can do that, I thought?

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bmtdan:
i figured it would help.

i couldnt test his work cus t would not install on my phone but i figured the apk would be a good reference and hes obviously learned to theme it.

maybe you could just work with his apk to make it evo compatible?

:D

and just saying thanks for your dedication to this project im a learning programmer so im not good with any of this stuff yet.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] enragedpaza:
I'm not even a programer or in school for anything remotely close to any of this stuff. lol, just like what I like..... so if someone hasn't made it, I will attempt to and learn in the process. Never hurt to learn something new

Attempted black theme

Per enragedpaza request I moded the provided q-ime.apk for the black keyboard and a few other fixes such as the "&" display and resigned using the testkey.pk8 and testkey.x509.pem keys...

Not sure if it will work and would have just PMed enragedpaza back but cannot attached files in a PM ;)

enragedpaza let me know if this works for you and if you are using apktool I can point you to the xml files AND graphic png files that have to be updated to modify the key backgrounds and key colors.

Hope this helps! :)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] enragedpaza:
Thanks, I'm about to test and I pm you again in regards to apktool. Thanks for your help

Hey guys, is there an option to have cursors appear at the bottom of the multitouch pad? I miss those cursors but love the speed of the multitouch. Thanks!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] enragedpaza:
I don't know how to do that type of thing, skinning is where I'm ok at.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] dukins:
Having no cursurs at the bottom is what makes this keyboard so much more user friendly. I hated those things. It took up so much space. I will gladly keep this current setup.LOL
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] mremy007:
Makes sens, thanks for the info! I will learn to love it. Got an issue where I could not scroll down on the page and without arrows, I had to copy paste etc... Got ugly.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bmtdan:
wow thank god i love the black keyboard. thanks to both of you guys who helped make this happen.m :) any plans for making more themes with different colors now?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] dukins:
One last version request. White Background with black letters. I think the black on black doesnt make it stand out enough.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] enragedpaza:
Yeah I will continue to come up with different color combos. Based of zack.xtr's keyboard, I just like the look of his keys more.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] dukins:
Actually EP I prefer your version keys better, only wish it had black keys. Im going back to the white version now. Hopefully you have some free time to make it happen for the community. ;)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] enragedpaza:
Stay at home dad so yeah I do. but I need some testing first
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] dukins:
Dont hesitate to send it my way for testing. :D HINT HINT HINT HINT!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bmtdan:
Yea honestly im loving this black keyboard but somehow it seems like the keys ate just a tad different. But i can live with it
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] enragedpaza:
What keys?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] oOflyeyesOo:
If you could make a copy of this, without the voice button, and extend the space bar. There are alot of us who never use this feature at all, so it would be pretty useless.

Im loving the new black keyboard, once the voice button is gone, and the space bar is extended so I will actually hit it(big thumbs), I wont be turning back.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bmtdan:
just all the keys in general they seem smaller but maybe im just crazy lol
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] enragedpaza:
Just the 3d effect he used. Same size, it's like an optical illusion. lol
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] 063_XOBX:
It is a heck of an illusion I held it next to my friends Evo and they definitely look slightly smaller but I don't have the best eyesight
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] enragedpaza:
Kinda a base for what I'm thinking about doing.

The dot will be something else and the sugestion bar will be different too.

I might loose the highlight on key press to, got a couple ideas floating around.

Give me feed back on what you think.......
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] 063_XOBX:
I like it, if you've seen the WP7 leak pics this looks kinda like the keyboard for it
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] bmtdan:
I like it but its not something id see my self using eapecially with no highlights. But id still install and see if id like t cus it looks sharp.

Ps if you could pm me a brief tutorial on how u are theming this icould probably help

black keyboard.

II like it!!! I was actually looking for ths dark background with the keys in the default color. But I must say that the black keys look freakin nice too. The "optical" illusion does mess with the eye balls and the brain but I likey...
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] enragedpaza:
Well for right now I am waiting to figure out this new method zack.xtr pointed out to me. Every keyboard I have made so far, have had issues with the circle (on the cap button) being distorted in landscape, and to close to the symbol (on the cap button) in portrait.

So I hope this method he pointed me to will work. I got it to extract correctly, can even view the xml documents. Just haven't figured out how to repack it.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] enragedpaza:
Yeah, the keys do look like less room to press, but there is actually a value to how big each key is in an xml document. So, even though it looks smaller (due to the way he made the buttons look), it is the EXACT size. As far as hitting the key.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] enragedpaza:
Haven't seen those pictures, I just thought of it when I was just messing around to get some ideas. What I decide to do is, leave the keyboard all black like that, and when you press the button there will be a white outline around the key you press. The white outline will also appear in the pop up key, hopefully. Deleting the circle on the cap button, and replacing it with something, still thinking about that one.
