[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] hj57:
I'm getting a touch pro 2 in a couple days, and i've just been looking around the website, because i come here for all my phone needs. (g1, cliq, now TP2) I see that there are a bunch of themes. So the noob question is...

Do i need to jailbreak, or hack my touch pro 2, in order to install these themes? please help a brotha out!:D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] fone_fanatic:
themes no, but to install custom roms you will have to hardSPL your device. Go to the windows mobile rom development forum and read the first sticky [Resources] Flashing your First GSM Rhodium Rom (For Noobs)
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] p-slim:
who has it? Please upload for the community
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] khiladi1:
LauncherPro 0.7.0.2 - apk download

Here you go...enjoy!! :D
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] p-slim:
Thank you, worked very nicely
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] sherman901:
What's the difference between this and the one that's in the Market?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] TheBiles:
Nothing. CM6 users can't see LauncherPro in the Market currently.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] pzumk:
Hello,

have you seen BlindType?

[youtube]M9b8NlMd79w[/youtube]

http://www.blindtype.com/

*UPDATE*

Guess what! Google bought BlindType (german)

This could end up as an Android only Keyboard now as it was originally planned for Android and iPhone
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jagjr86:
That is pretty sick!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Clarkster:
I am going to go ahead and say that it uses magic to do it. I couldn't imagine the work gone into that prediction algorithm. Wow.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] dictionary:
Before anyone else says it ... "How's the battery life?" Lol.

Not like I care though about the battery life. This should be pretty interesting when it comes out.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] pzumk:
I also find it really awesome :D

I hope it's getting released with german.. not english only :|
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] benman27:
I think I know how this works, I think it uses your key presses as points in a path, similar to how swype uses direction changes, looks very clever!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Clarkster:
And it scales and rotates until it finds the best match, you can type as if the keyboard is diagonal and half the size. That's what I think is the crazy part, and the fact it can do it so fast means their recognition algorithms are very impressive.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] lilchip85:
this is sick!! i cant wait for it to come out. :D:D:D:D:D
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] yayramen:
Not gonna lie.

That made my day.

I can't wait until it comes out.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] rjhay22:
Holly Crap! Thats crazy!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] watercool:
Similar to swype, but you type instead of swyping. But the rotation and scaling is pretty sick
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] h_zee13:
Hmmm I see what he did there.......AWESOME
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] lilchip85:
it was under the faqs section
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] pzumk:
Lol, I see that I definatly need BlindType, thanks!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] leyvatron:
nice. Cant wait.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] diversificationied:
Very cool.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] navillos:
looks friggin crazy. i cant wait for this i suck at typing.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] diversificationied:
Oh your title is wrong by the way.

Precision isn't needed, accuracy however is.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] dnsmo:
Wow
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] mic_888:
Yeah, looks really good - can't wait to try it out!

It looks like the OP took that from the BlindType tagline on their website..."Touch typing the way it should be. Accuracy not required."
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Paul22000:
Hmm, looks nice but Swype would still be way faster, wouldn't it?

With this, you still have to tap per letter...
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] pzumk:
Exactly

And I'm too lazy to change it to "not required".

@Paul22000 I think no one tried it yet.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] sergioalvarezmac:
It`s pretty impressive!. I`m using Swiftkey, and it`s very cool too... but for the

moment I think Swype is better.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] :
Holy god... that is seriously amazing. INSANE!!! Great job whoever developed this.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] bcpk:
Well with Blindtype you can type with two hands... on the other hand you have to do that "word finished" swiping action which slows you down.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] seanhassars:
there isn't a "word finished" swipe required for anything in swype
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Duron23:
Can't belive

Hi,

Is this keyboard for real ?? Can't belive at all. :D

Regards,

Duron23
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] phewizzo:
Thats for the iPhone though.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] the337:
yeah. they're making an iphone and android app.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Radav:
That's awesome, woooaaa:eek:
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] mattlport:
This is very exciting.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] bart3385:
I hope it comes in any resolution for winmo.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Faelok:
Totally Amazazing!

+1 this has to be magic. My question is, "does the wizard that predicts my thouhts live inside my phone? and does he need to be fed regularly?"
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Rar9:
Perfect for my Wife since she doesn´t like swype.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Lukxxx:
All the extra work is done by the demon that paints your pictures, nothing extra required
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] thedicemaster:
depends on your screen.

with resistive, this would easily rival the speed of Swype.

i have a resistive screen myself, and i feel some discomfort over gestures because resistive screens are less responsive to movement.

this does mean however that tap-typing is easier.

between taps on a capacitive screen you have to lift your finger, but on resistive you can just reduce presure so you can almost swype on a tap-keyboard.

now my only problem with fast-typing on a tap-keyboard is the inaccuracy, but as said with this keyboard, "accuracy not required".

it could actually even be faster on resistive since you don't have to look exactly where the letter is.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] rfarrah:
Do we have an ETA on this? Love to give it a try.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] milosz191:
Could anyone post it on any server like rapidshare, megashare or something?

My magic cant find it in the market
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] G1-evolve:
You must not read.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Saturn2K:
Now we can type text messages in our pockets using touch screens. I miss the "eyes-free" ability to type that physical keypads gave.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] intermediate Droid:
Think this will work for droid eris
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] newalopez:
exactly :) , they use the same algorithm than swype maybe, just check the points lol!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] civic4982:
nice... when I can I get this on my Evo 4G?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] cyrux004:
Exactly. Imagine sitting in a conference meeting and using your cell phone with one hand under the table and typing off a text message. You dont even have to look if you going off -boundaries. The fricking keyboard adjusts to your orientation automatically. how cool is that.

I am just amazed that such intense algorithms are so responsive. I didnt see a lot of lag in there.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] msoccer2:
This is intense. Does anyone have any idea when this will be released? I really need a keyboard like this. The one I'm using now sucks
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] funkeee:
I have a G1 and I might just dump my physical keyboard for this. Fantastic. I can't wait.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] hello00:
the iphone has this too
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] katiepea:
No it doesn't, the iphone has one keyboard that you can't change
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] watercool:
Is this promo video done on an ipad? For sure it is done on a tablet pc
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] rfarrah:
Looks like a cellphone to me. It's using an app to take notes on a yellowpad-like screen.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Markdental:
I am pretty sure that the demo is on an Iphone. Maybe just for jail-broken IPhones.

Also, seems too good to be true. I don't quite believe it yet.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] phewizzo:
The iPhone does not just have 1 keyboard, iPhone has different keyboards you can use if you have jail broken it and yes this is demo'd on the iphone cant you see the keyboard layout is the iphone keyboard and the top bar?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] seanhassars:
looks a little big for an iphone, you sure it's not an ipad?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jpwhre:
I was thinking the same thing. Screen was big enough to show both hands. Looked more like a 7" android tablet, ipad is biger and you would have seen more of the hands.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] bcpk:
Here it is demoed on an iPad

[youtube]KTw4JexFW-o[/youtube]
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] setspeed:
I need this in my life.

Currently struggling along with a cracked Swype, which although it does the job, has a number of problems, chiefly of which is it doesn't play nicely with the HTC browser - text entry lags like a mutha******.

This is something that annoys me every day, and before you all say switch browsers, I have tried others and I don't want to.

I am wondering if this problem has been fixed in the most recent Swype beta? I did apply for beta membership and was successful, but decided not to go through the rigmarole of uninstalling my cracked copy and losing my dictionary of saved words...
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] rfarrah:
FWIW, my version (7625) of Swype works flawlessly - and skinned in Red!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] watercool:
There was only one version with this lag issue. 1.60 is out there, find it! :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] yayramen:
solution! You can now get the latest version (official beta [no lag])

AND if you download mybackup or mybackup pro, you can backup swype's data

that way you can uninstall the cracked version, install your version, restore the data, and bam you have your dictionary back =D
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] funkeee:
Where do we get this beta?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] tuto0503:
looks INSANE
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] donkeypunch85:
New video from their blog... this one shown for sure on iPod

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7gDF4ocLhQM
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] LevitateJay:
They just released a video of it running on Android

http://www.youtube.com/watch?annotation_id=annotation_403862&v=m6eKm1gUnTE&feature=iv

Looks cool! :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] rfarrah:
I'd love to beta-test that for them on my Droid Incredible.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Wevenhuis:
Too bad it isn't for windows mobile OS. Guess not everyone can enjoy it. That's a lot of people left out.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] basilbasil:
i want it on WM
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] HamSummit:
hmm they say it'll bring even the iPhone layout on an Android device, but Apple have a patent on their layout.. that will cause another applewar..

also, it's realy funny if you have to Jailbreak your "phone" just to choose another keyboard..

thank god there are other things than fruits..

but quite amazing keyboard, the only problem is, that it isnt released yet..
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] pzumk:
Guess what! Google bought BlindType (german)

This could end up as an Android only Keyboard now as it was originally planned for Android and iPhone
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] martinl1030:
very cool. maybe well see this in gingerbread?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] rori~:
Coool !!!!!!!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] wind0zer:
that's awesome now we don't have to search for exclusive betas or shell out extra cash for swype. apple can suck on it.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] rfarrah:
I don't think it's hit the market or available anywhere just yet...
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Vision77:
Nope I've been searchin for this for a while now....I thought I was gonna have to be on some blindtype VIP list:D Hopefully we get the goods sooner than later.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] FritzJ92:
Actually Google recently bough the company that was producing the keyboard, so there will not be a iPhone version at all, but expect a Android version to come soon. Now we have Stock/Swype/BlindType... thats three great keyboard choices.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jakeneal22:
Excited I am.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] lionsson:
Wow, I wonder if the iPhone will still get this keyboard not to mention that this will likely be rejected for duplicate functionality.

Google Acquires BlindType, a Mobile Typing Startup
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] rfarrah:
Ultra Keyboard just trumped Swype since it does everything Swype does and more... and it's legal.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] kpjimmy:
Besides those kb's there's also swiftkey which I currently switched to from Swype. Swype has its merits, but the swiftkey IMO is great in regards to predictable words when typing. This blindtype looks promising as well.

Oh and I cannot forget eVil's HTC kb's on his NxSense ROMS. Those work well too!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] FlameEffex:
So where the hell can people get swype lol. The new cyanogen screwed me overrrr :P
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jakeneal22:
Anyone have info on when blind type is out
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] pzumk:
No.

Sent from my iMac using Google Chrome
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jakeneal22:
Vlingo is a pretty nice keyboard I'm using it to type this right now.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] pzumk:
Erm.. Many Android Keyboards already supports speech to text.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jakeneal22:
Updates on a release date?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] bennettm89:
No updates?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] dictionary:
No.

10chars
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] woody_2k:
They have been bought out by google. Looks like they might integrate into futur Android releases
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] avio07:
Possibly Gingerbread?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] pzumk:
Possibly, yes.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] bennettm89:
I would replace all swype-esque keyboards for this
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] OrganizedFellow:
I just hope they don't fukken tease us with some BETA CRAP like Swype did, and then just sell to OEM.

I really liked Swype. Ever since the first time I used it, but I stopped using it a few weeks ago, and pretty pissed how they won't support beta users, etc, etc, GRRR ...

OKAY, Sorry, rant over.

===== ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== =====

I would love me some BlindType LOVE!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jakeneal22:
Agreed that was bs
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jakeneal22:
Updates? Anyone suspect this will be in android 2.3
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] kamakazekid:
Could it be?

From what i could muster... this could very well be the stock keyboard for the highly speculated (yet highly reticuled i must add). I personally am looking forward to this device, and the thought of having blindtype tech as the STOCK keyboard.

Blindtype on Gingerbread could be a possibility as well.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed to think google is putting this on Chrome OS for the tablet.

b(^_^)b

Aloha,

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jay_zhead:
I seriously doubt there will be an iPhone version now that BlindType had been bought by Google.

And all of you who keep saying "swype is still faster" - that may be, but it doesn't matter. Swype has something that 90% of users, or "the average user" as companies call it, do not want: a learning curve. It may be worth it - but most users that buy an android device from their carrier are not going to bother with the training period, they want something they can type with out of the box - and this is it. So I completely understand why Google bought BlindType and not Swype. Let's hope that this becomes the default android keyboard soon enough! :D
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] HTCinToronto:
Training curve? Those that have it stock with their unit seem to pick it up and praise it very quickly. Either way, the nice thing is that it's pretty easy to switch input methods according to your immediate needs.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] JHaste:
so... how sick would this be if it came out with gingerbread?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] daveid:
The technology involved in Blindtype seems more suitable for the average joe, who doesn't really know where all the keys are supposed to be.

However, Swype is 100% perfect for those of us who have been touch typing for ever (two decades and counting) and do not have to look at the keyboard to know we are hitting the right letters. I can produce error free paragraphs in Swype faster than I could with my G1's keyboard (or my wife's Slide's physical keyboard).

So, this training period is dependent upon the individuals background. For the average joe, blindtype may be less of a curve... but, for those with a typing background (lets say 60wpm average minimum on full-sized hardware keyboards) I wager there is no learning curve for either method (aside from the special features, which Swype is full of).

Besides, there has to be a reason why Swype holds the world record for text input on a mobile phone... right?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Markdental:
Actually, Swype no longer holds the world record. I am pretty sure that some dude broke the world record with his IPhone 4.

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jakeneal22:
any new info? I'm watching for updates intently.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] DarkOne951:
Siesh people. No, there are no more updates.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jakeneal22:
Sorry I am anxious
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Yoy0YO:
Is it just me or is their website blindtype.com down?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jpwhre:
Something i just read from 10/2 says that the app will be used to improve androids keyboard. One could read that in many ways, i for one read, google shut down the app and is going to use programming from it to improve androids stock keyboard.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] pzumk:
I don't care about the website and I hope we get this before summer 2011
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jakeneal22:
I hope they incorporate it and don't just sweep it under the rug.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] FunkyMcBain:
If there is one thing that Google is the absolute champ of is recognizing where and how their products can be better, that's why they have succeeded above and beyond everyone else. I would be extremely surprised if they swept this under the rug. Almost completely sure that they saw this and realized that whatever those guys were doing it has to potential to make their keyboards vastly superior to everyone elses. They'll probably implement this themselves and just add to it with their access to resources.

Also, the purchase was most likely to do with this being such a good product that they don't want apple getting their hands on it.

This keyboard might allow google to guarantee the same typing experience on all android devices, which would be awesome because I hate the screen accuracy on my Nexus One.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jakeneal22:
You have a very good point because I know they had an iPhone version of this and one for ipad. You should try smart keyboard pro. Best I have ever used. And the galaxy theme is beautiful. Gestures are set swipe up for t9 switch. If you use t9 which I do sometimes. Its all customizable.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] adam18488:
techinically...couldn't this be included in gingerbread?

because google bought blindtype, so they could merge their own engine with blindtypes.

would be a nice surprise..:cool:
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jakeneal22:
Well umm im a little disappointed because im pretty sure that this isn't in gingerbread. I am currently running gingerbread on my nexus one and i dont see any mentions of it. But i think they are saving it for honeycomb because i seen a video of it on the ipad and honeycomb is a tablet operating system.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] pzumk:
No it's not in Gingerbread
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Stea1thmode:
Slightly off topic, I noticed you're using wildmonks, what's the latest one like, I've not been given it much love recently. cheers
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] pzumk:
I use 2.6.35.9_AVS-950mV_CFS_AXI_720p_1152MHz_120410, there's no newer one.

Dropbox DL because his site seems to be down

Back to topic ;)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] superg81:

site is working for me
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Stea1thmode:
Okay, thanks guys
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] eobias:
i wont be surprised it this is integrated in honeycomb tablets..it makes more sense, bigger screen + blind type = ownage!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] OnEnExUsOnE:
ya but there was the video of them showing it off on the nexus one and the iphone(which will change since google bought it out) so I think they might just release it as an app to buy in the market, or at least thats what Im hoping :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jakeneal22:
I just want it. Lol I don't care how that happens as long as the apk is on my sd card and it doesn't crash I'm happy.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Bloodflame:
couldn't have said it better myself! this looks amazing!!!

i just started using swype a few days ago, and as much as i love it, i think blindtype would be a suitable upgrade :D
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Lothaen:
Has anyone seen anymore news on BlindType - I read an article awhile ago - forgot what it was called and just stumbled onto this thread :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] pzumk:
no, there are no news
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Clarkster:
Google bought them. And since then there has been no news.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Luggruff:
How long does it take for google to add their copyright to the app?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] qetuol:
they should combine this with swype
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] baseballfanz:
They probably bought it to keep it off the market.:D
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] k3vink3vin:
Google bought it just in case competitors *cough Apple cough* would do so! :D
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] derrickonline:
Damn You El Goog

I'm really hoping Google didn't snatch these guys up just to keep someone else from getting their hands on them.

The first time I saw this keyboard I thought finally maybe I can actually bang out a message without deleting a retyping a hundred times. I followed BlindType hard, waiting and waiting.

Now here we are June 2011 and still no mention of BlindType after the acquisition.

I wish these guys would have leaked an APK before being acquired. We'd be in business.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] gianluca.tomat:
C'm on google!! do it for us!! :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] gianluca.tomat:
cm'on google do it for us!! :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] pzumk:
They won't. They did like 2 mayor Android Update since they bought BlindType and the Android keyboard still sucks.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] kuljit55:
intresting

intresting will try
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] yellowjacket1981:
when will this be available? what the heck
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Markdental:
It won't, it was bought by google. So unless they incorporate it into an OS build, we will never see it.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] markmeshark:
It's going to be included in Ice Cream Sandwich.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] yurilebbie:
Best picture response ever, but I agree there is no backing to your statement markmeshark
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] webup:
Watched a YT video of this and it looked amazing.

Ended up here after googling looking for progress on this keyboard.

So now in 2012 what is the closet thing to this Blindtype keyboard?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] funkeee:
Bumping this old thread. I recall reading that Google bought BlindType. But I haven't seen anything more about it. Did anything ever get released? Or did they buy it out to extinguish their competition?
[XPERIA X2 General] michaelthemage:
Hello to all,

where is your phone made in? China...., or .......

I think will be intersting to know for some. ;)

BTW, mine is on its way, so I don't know yet!
[XPERIA X2 General] fadi.b:
made in China
[XPERIA X2 General] RJH57108:
My X2a is also made in China ...
