Love the keyboard, have a quick question (not sure what I did/am doing wrong)...

I flashed this with Rom Manager (running SR 2.5.2 Vanilla) and it works great, but I don't have the key on the bottom right for the android emoticons that I see in some of the screen cap attachments? Do I need to Flash a different zip to get that?

Is it just me? Thanks!! Great work!

Edit: Think I got it... that key is only on specific mods...
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] bluetooth_decay:
Are people who have used this thinking it is much better than stock Android, or (more specifically) HTC's keyboard?

I'm running SR 2.5.2 Vanilla, but it appears to have the HTC keyboard still in it. One thing I noticed missing from the screenshots of this keyboard is the Shift characters on each key, line the numbers across the top row, and punctuation elsewhere. That kind of negates the advantages of multitouch it seems to me. Am I just missing something?

I would like more accuracy, though, particularly in portrait. The prediction I find with stock gets in my way more than anything.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] SirBindy:
Can't pick which keyboard to use on my Dinc. Running SkyRaider 2.5.2 with Sense. I can set all the options for Multi-Touch keyboard now, but I can't choose which one to use by default.

What am I missing here?

Anybody?

No ideas?

I just installed this on my HTC Desire running LeeDroid and it the keyboard opens fine after flashing it in recovery. The problem is I can only press one key down at a time meaning the multi touch isnt working. Does anyone know anything about this?

Thanks in Advance

Just a question, is it possible to add more languages to this keyboard? If so, how?

Thanks for your good work
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] sonyxperia2:
hope more languages are coming!

I hope too that this keyboard will add more languages, it's the best one, but lack italian language and others! Nobody know how to add this features? Thank you all
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Evil_enc:
please add german language
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] gandhisfist:
I agree, that was the first thing i tested to see if the keyboard was actually multitouch and it doesn't seem to be working properly. Hopefully we see a fix for this at some point. For now it might as well just be a larger version of the stock keyboard minus the more useful ability to swipe upwards for numbers and symbols.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] invisiblek:
this has already been discusses on this thread

for some reason it may not work as mutitouch on some phones

have you tried Kaos's version (linked near the top of the op)?

it may or may not work
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] madtomatoes:
Thanks works awesome! One thing though. Would it be possible add the feature where you hold a certain key and get the symbol or number? Similar to the sense keyboard?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] WhammyDroid:
Is anyone running this on the official 2.2 release for the Incredible?

That would really improve the usability!!!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] m1ke.t:
I have just installed this on my phone. I am running a Nightly build of the Cyanogen6 ROM on my rooted Desire.

The keyboard works really smoothly. The only issue is that some keys do not press very well when multi-touching.

For example, if I hold Q and try to type anything on the middle row from F onwards the keyboard will actually type what is on the top row for that letter.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a fix or some sort of calibration tool?

The method of install I used was Flash after the ADB way wouldn't work.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] sonyxperia2:
Mike this problem is caused by the issue of multitouch on desire and nexus one screen, from htc phones.. software and hardware will invert some coordinates..and that's the result..
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] MrSpohn1:
I have a Moto Droid, running Cyanogenmod 6.0.0 final release Watermark'd 3.4. The multitouch keyboard works excellently. The issue with the ALT and SHIFT keys on the hard keyboard are not what they seem. If you hit the key on the hard keyboard it puts it in caps mode. If you hold it then hit the desired letter and release it will only capitalize or use the symbol to what you hit while holding it. You can also hold the caps or alt button and hit anything you want. It will follow the command. This makes it easy, for example, to type in numbers and such. This seems better for my purposes, because I can never remember to lock anything. That is my easy fix to the problem on the droid.

Thanks Kaos for all your hard work.

does it work on 08/26 leak

when i wen to install on the latest 08/26 leak I was not able to find the LatinIME.apk or the libjni_latinime.so.

I went ahead and still installed it. Once i rebooted i went into language and keyboard and saw both the multitouch and the touch input keyboard. however whenever i went to type something i still had the old HTC keyboard.

Please help.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] johantheolive:

Droid 2 Zoom mode question

Hey,

I don't mean to change the topic, and if I need to post this else where I can do that to, but I have a quick question for anyone who may have a Droid 2 handy. I see some of the bundled apps on the Droid 2 can be ported to other devices, and was curious if anyone can tell me if the "Zoom Mode" application on that device can be used on other android devices. It is found under the accessibility menu, and provides screen magnification. This is only from reading around, since I myself have not used this phone. Please if anyone can confirm if Zoom Mode is an add on app to that can be used on other phones I would be very greatful. I myself suffer from very low vision and the zoom function would make my day.

Thanks in advance.

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Pandariffic:
With every multi-touch keyboard I've applied/tried out there's a slight bug.

When I'm texting, I can only see the bottom half of what I'm texting. I have to scroll in the main text area to see what I'm typing fully, but as soon as I go back to typing it only shows the bottom half of the letter again.

Wondering if you could check it out or fix it?

Running BB 0.4 on Droid1.

I've posted this on other themers/devs threads as well hoping to find a fix for this, thanks.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] wolfspirit68:
For some reason I cannot get the keyboard to run. It shows in the setting that the multi touch is active but when I goto Handcent it pops up with the same old black Android keyboard.

I've tried pushing the files manually and the easy way and still nothing. I hope the fact I am using UD 8 is not causing the problem.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Lock-N-Load:
got it working.. using the "old/manual" method on a rooted D1 using Pete's vanilla FRG01B ROM (no theme).

1. backup my ROM (nandroid)

2. backup (zipped) system/lib/libjni_latinime.so with root explorer

3. sent the apk to gmail and then installed apk

4. copy/paste new libjni_latinime.so in place over old (remounted as r/w with root explorer)

5. installed green highlight theme .zip via recovery (found earlier in this thread)

6. settings > lang & keyboard > selected the multi-touch keyboard

so, it seems to work! I do have the choice, using the "manual" method in that thread, to select stock keyboard or multi-touch. but I love this multi-touch as it looks way better, seems snappier, faster, more accurate, nice colors, I do have multi touch ability now (I can touch two or more spaces on the screen and the screen registers two or more individual fingers).

also, my shift key and some of the other key oddities others list - alt and caps keys sticking on - seem to work as expected for me.

Now, I did try to select the stock keyboard and did have some FC issues others reported.. but not sure I will even go back though. Also, the manual method does allow to keep the stock, so I should be able to roll back. But odd that I followed the method to keep stock and still get forceclosing on the stock KB. I like having the option to go back if I want, so it is kind of a bummer. But I like this KB so much, I will not likely go back to stock. Curious if anyway has an idea for a fix for this 1 issue.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] invisiblek:
i think the problem with the stock keyboard fc'ing on you is related to the fact that libjni_latinime.so had to be replaced, so the stock keyboard is expecting to use the stock library and when it calls this one it pukes
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Lock-N-Load:
thanks.. I kind of suspected that. Am I correct in assuming I cannot push back the libjni_latinime.so file for my ROM without busting this great KB, correct? It seems like, even though I have the "choice" and can select the stock KB or this D2 KB, if I want this D2 KB I should just accept this forceclose issue on the stock KB as I cannot put back my stock libjni_latinime.so file to fix the forceclose without then busting this D2 KB?

and BTW.. for those on D1 that do what I did, there is not such file called "LatinIME.apk", we have "LatinIMEGoogle.apk". Now, I did expect to see "LatinIME.apk" in there after installing the apk file like I did, but no such file. Odd, no?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Lock-N-Load:
I did find a bit of a bug for D1 users...

the multi touch KB will not have certain keys work in certain areas IF you try to use multi touch. For example, if you press and hold the shift key to make some uppercase letters, those letters near the shift key will not register. For example, a,s,d,z,x,q,w,e are all tough or impossible to get to function in multi touch if your holding the shift key.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Pandariffic:
Wanted to add that this bug only occurs in landscape not portrait. In portrait it's sound but in landscape it cuts half the text that you have typed out in the main texting field and you can only see the bottom half.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] stoffelck:

- removed spanish dictionary

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] melophat:
I did a quick search through here to see if anyone else had reported it working on skyraider sense 3.1 and didn't see any, so just in case anyone is wondering, it's working fine.

it didn't have a LatinIME.apk file to begin with, it's got a LatinImeGoogle.apk file instead. All i did was copy the .so file from the zip into /system/lib (that file does exist, so make sure to do a backup or rename it to .bak), and then copy the apk from the zip into the /system/app folder, rename it LatinIME.apk, and launch it to install. Not renaming it will cause FC's, so make sure to rename it LatinIME.apk before installing.. hope this helps.

/edit: after looking a little better, i saw that the LatinImeGoogle.apk was already mentioned on a d2, but it's present on the Incredible also.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] satvic:
works well on CM6.0. However the file size is smaller 900kb vs 3.1mb for 2.1? The problem is there are only 2 languages left: English, Spanish. Really need Russian keyboard, since there is no voice recognition for it yet.

According to these news Motorola will release Froyo update (maybe) in late september which should include the full language pack:

umm, neither one needs to go to your sd card
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] dude0909:
Where should they both be then? I'm very new to this. I have the sdk installed and everything. and adb works. but i thought things needed to be in the sd card to push them from one place to another?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] invisiblek:
you push them from your computer to the specified place on the phone

if the sdk tools directory is in your path, you can just cd to where the .apk and .so are and use the commands from the OP to get them over

otherwise put them both in the android-sdk/tools/ directory and push them from there (same commands)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] dude0909:
Ohhhhh I moved the apk and the so to the "tools" directory then it worked. This keyboard rocks! Thanks for the help

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Bateluer:
Many thanks. Currently running Sapphire 1.0, will report back in a moment with whether it works or not.

Edit - No go. Installs fine, began FCing randomly when I entered the KB's settings and consistently whenever I tried to open the kb in an app.

Currently running Sapphire 1.0 with their stock 1Ghz lv kernel, with compcache enabled and Launcher Pro.

Edit 2 - Should also note that this was just with the apk, not the .so file. Don't have the resources to mess with adb at the moment, have to try that when I get home. I loved the DX's multitouch keyboard for the brief period I was running an eclair ROM for it.

My main irritation was that it messed with the settings of the hardware keyboard as well, likely because the DX didn't have hardware keyboard. Since this version was kanged from the D2, are the virtual KB and hardware KB controlled independently?

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] invisiblek:
it may be possible that your keyboard is called GoogleLatinIme.apk instead of LatinIME.apk (i wouldnt know because i havent used that rom) search in /system/app for something with LatinIme in its name and replace that file with the apk from the op (dont forget the lib!)

Not sure if this has been mentioned yet, but I got this working on my incredible using the MiUI ROM v.02. Did it using the manual (old) method.

Not bad so far, but for some reason the letters on the keys are really small. Not a big prob for me as I know where the keys are, but for anyone that has a hard time seeing small fonts, this may be a problem.

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Sin2800:
After searching this whole thread, I have seen no fix for the only problem I have with this keyboard (unless I missed it somehow :/ )

Anywho, my only problem is that when I am typing using the symbols (any of them really, but an example is ^ ), if I have a space before the symbol, it automatically puts the symbol back at the word. this is very irritating to me, as usually, I meant to have the space there. Is there anyway to disable this, or would I have to take apart the whole .apk to figure this out?

For example by the way -

If I type: This is an example ^

Then I press space, or any other character again, it becomes: This is an example^ _ (the space is still added...just in the wrong spot.)

Thanks :)

That's actually part of Android, the normal keyboard in froyo does exactly the same, if you want it off, your going to have to turn off auto punctuation (yes, space is a form of puntuation).
