Here is an example using my TM2...(typing normally at 82 WPM)

Hard keyboard...

Virtual keyboard..

Thw rN IN SPj falls mainly on he plib.

Swype is great, but you have to train it to be.
[Off-topic] Shreyas Jani:
Well,it doesn't happen with me on the virtual gesture keyboard[the basic one] on my hTC Opal, still,i get fed up of typing when tired. I wish i had a Touch pro series device, but i can't afford it[student] and there is no such occasion coming up so that i can request my dad to gift 1 to me!:D

[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] jpzsports:
What keyboards are you guys using on your Droid Eris? I've tried so many but none can keep up with my typing speed. I can type so fast on an iPhone but when I type on my Eris, I always have to slow down because my phone is still trying to catch up or got stuck on one error or something.

I tried Swype but I'm just not as accurate as the regular keyboards.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] ToastPwnz:
Since I've basically lost interest in Swype because of their lack of releases for any new users, I decided to try SwiftKey.

I noticed they were running a sale (yep, guess Android dev's do that sometimes) so I decided I would try it. The text prediction is so good most of the time you only have to type one or two letters of a word. Not sure how it keeps up with speed, since I rarely type any full words. :p There's a free version you can try and see if you like it, just search "SwiftKey Keyboard Free" in the market and you'll find it.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I don't think I've tried SwiftKey, but I use Ultra Keyboard (Swype-like). Before that, I had tried Swype through several beta versions, but I thought it sucked, honestly. :D I preferred ShapeWriter to Swype; it worked better. ShapeWriter isn't available on the market any more, but I may have a backup of the last available version in an apk if anyone needs it (it was free anyway).
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] ToastPwnz:
SwiftKey's text prediction is what got me hooked. In terms of "learning" it's one of the best keyboards, after about a week or two of moderate use you'll barley have to type anything anymore.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] raknarc:
+1 for SwiftKey. I hate that it's bland whute and gray, but it's definitely the smartest keyboard. I too have tried them all, but keep coming back. My routine is this: flash rom, use themed, native kb for few hours because it looks cool, then break down and swap SwiftKey into system/app. The ability to have it instantly "learn" my language from my saved text messages is a nice touch aa well. It tracks saved keystrokes and I'm always @ 25-30%.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] edward_g:
I'm loving the new hacked Swype that Jonsu just released. I don't plan on looking for any more keyboards.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] jpzsports:
I've tried Swiftkey and I like the idea of it, but I find myself watching for the next word rather than just typing on through. I feel like a simple, fast keyboard would allow me to type the fastest.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] jpzsports:
I just downloaded better keyboard and it seems to be very responsive!!
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] amfetamine:
I like the DroidX keyboard. Kaos has a thread on it in dev.
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] truelove79:
Why would you post something like this and not give us a URL so we can get it? :(
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] C Brown:
I was thinking the same thing.

I tried swiftkey and liked it but had a much better expeirence with swype seemed like I was making less mistakes which is always nice :)
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] mcdaaaniel:
I've been a big fan of smart keyboard pro lately. it's quite fast and accurate and it has a "dynamic key resizing feature" which helps improve it's accuracy. I think it's safe to say that it is my favorite keyboard and i've pretty much tried them all. swiftkey... swype... better keyboard... ultra keyboard... ect.

edit: Ohh and I forgot to add that it's auto correct is pretty kick ass too.

I agree. I've been using gingerbread keyboard for several days now and have been very happy with it so far. I also just installed the new beta swype but I just can't seem to get into swype. I guess I like typing better than sliding my finger across the screen. :rolleyes:

When I try to download things from the internet onto my phone, it says I have insufficient storage. I formatted my SD and now have over 7GB of free space so I think the downloads are saving to my phone instead of my SD card. The problem is, when I go into my internet settings to "Download storage" it says "Storage card" underneath but it's grayed out. How do I fix this problem?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasonleb1:
Anyone??? Please?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dougjamal:
Did you format your SD card via your phone or via computer. If via computer, format it from your phone. Menu - Settings - SD & Phone Storage.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasonleb1:
^I formatted it on my computer. Now, I just formatted it on my phone and my SD card wouldn't mount so I rebooted and now I'm stuck on loop on the FreshEvo boot screen.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dougjamal:
Turn your phone off and then remove the SD card. Boot your phone to make sure you can boot normally. Afterwards, turn off your phone, reinsert your card and reboot, if you get stuck again, reboot into recovery and, depending on what you have, you *might* be able to format the card from there. If not, reformat via your phone. It *should* work. It always work for me.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasonleb1:
I'm still stuck on the loop without the SD card in, and when I boot into Recovery it says it can't mount the SD card.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dougjamal:
Your problem is not the SD card then. Your phone will operate without it. If you done a nandroid backup, I recommend that you use it to restore your phone to operating status and reformat your card once completed. Sorry for the delayed responses, I'm doing chores and stuff and reading the forums as time permits.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasonleb1:
When I try to restore nandroid it just says SD can't be mounted.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dougjamal:
Do you, by chance, have a spare SD card? I just want to see you get out of the loop and into your phone's menu. I don't see the connection with you being unable to boot completely and your SD card because the card is not mounted until after you're at your homescreen. Also, if you're unable to mount your card for a nandroid restore then your phone is useless, but not completely so don't fret. Therefore, acquire a different card and go from there. If you have To buy one, buy a 4gb card. Remember, we're trying to get you to your homescreen and if push comes to shove, the ability to flash your rom.

[G2 and Desire Z General] Stealth1985:
I have a BELL Desire Z which I rooted, S-Off and then flashed with the HTC Sense ROM from Paul O'brien. I am having more issues than anything so I want to know how I get back to the stock ROM.
[G2 and Desire Z General] jark99:
I take it you dont have a nandroid backup? You could try that RUU method, it usually restores your self back to stock. I have my stock nandroid iimage lying around if ya need it.

Sent from HTC Desire Z using XDA App
[G2 and Desire Z General] FireGX:
The bell rom posted is .1, not the .5 version that's shipped.. so I don't think it's the same. So the RUU method wouldn't work..
[G2 and Desire Z General] Stealth1985:
I did a backup, but will it reset all my personal settings etc?

Is there a stock released ROM from HTC or bell or even an update on the way?
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
Be careful ! Do not try to flash an RUU that is older than the ROM you have, if you have S-OFF or you could end up bricking your phone - see http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=838484

You can use the "debranding" guide in the dev forum to go back to an older ROM if you have S-OFF.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Stealth1985:
In about it says the software is 1.34.405.5

What do I need to do exactly to get back to stock safely.
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
If your current ROM is 1.34.405.5, then you should be able to safely use either the stock 1.34.405.5 RUU, or the ROM extracted from that.

It's if you're trying to flash a ROM with a lower version number than that you're already running, if you're S-OFF, that you'll run into problems.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Stealth1985:
Thanks for the info, is there anywhere to download the stock Bell ROM from? Alot of these threads are confusing for a n00b like myself with all the abbreviations and different versions.

I basically want to get back to stock, root the phone, delete the bloatware and overclock it.
[G2 and Desire Z General] FireGX:
I was wondering... if you made a nandroid backup after having done some app installations and such of the stock rom, and you flashed back to that backup, you'd have your original ROM with all the app installations and settings you set right? What happens if you then proceed to do a factory reset? Does the ROM revert back to stock? Or does it simply revert back to the state of the ROM when you made the backup?
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
Although several stock ROMs are on this forum, unfortunately it looks like the current Bell ROM isn't there, only an older one. It would obviously be very useful if someone could get hold of it and upload it.

You can do a factory reset to set everything back to how your ROM came initially, if it's still on the stock ROM. But if you want to delete the bloatware and overclock etc, you may well be better flashing a different ROM, have a look and see what ones sound good.
[G2 and Desire Z General] sickens:
My question is sort of along the line of that of the OP, since I'm somewhat new to this process still I hope you'll humor me. I've done a ton of reading, but I still have a few q's I couldn't seem to find buried in my research...

I have a Bell Desire Z, unlocked, rooted, S-OFF. I installed ClockWork & flashed the recovery partition and did a nandroid backup of my stock Bell partition. I then did a wipe / install of the non-sense G2 ROM Paul put out and have been using it (and enjoying it) quite a bit.

I think I'd like to try a Cyanogen ROM now, is it really just as simple as flashing the RC3 (doing a complete wipe, obviously) and then I'm good to go? I can then just restore apps/settings with Titanium...

If I want to revert back to my original Bell ROM, do I just restore that ROM from the nandroid backup I made as soon as I installed ClockWork?

If I'm on Pauls G2 Rom (or Cyanogen's ROM), and I do a 'factory wipe', that just resets the factory settings of that particular ROM right? It wouldn't take me back to the stock Bell ROM would it? (very sorry if this seems noobish)

Thanks folks.
[G2 and Desire Z General] sickens:
Anyone? :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
Yes, you can wipe and flash Cyanogen. Yes, you can restore apps with Titanium. However, I don't yet understand how this works with "system"-type apps. e.g. what if you are using a different SMS app in Cyanogen to the stock ROM, can you restore your messages ? Of course if you are restoring an app that you installed on your stock ROM, to the Cyanogen ROM then Titanium should do it fine.

Yes.

Yes, it just takes you back to the factory settings for that ROM that you're currently on. It won't take you back to the original ROM that came with your phone if you've switched to something else.
[G2 and Desire Z General] sickens:
thank-you very much steviewevie I was hoping you'd respond! I appreciate it. It was the vote of confidence I needed to proceed.
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
You're welcome. I was pretty confused by what Titanium did at first, until I actually came to use it (along with a Nandroid backup) to do a backup of all my stuff and restore (using Nandroid) after I'd temporarily reverted to an earlier ROM.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Boosh63:
I need to revert back to the stock Bell Desire Z ROM as well but didn't make a backup.

With the tip and info from "pklee", I have been playing around with the Screen Density settings. Stock is 240... I have started from 190 working my way up to 220 and I found that the effects on the screen and use of the size really is nice. So.. I thought I would share.

2 Ways..

Root Explorer:

Navigate to /System

Mount R/W

Hold on build.prop

Scroll to "ro.sf.lcd_density=240"

Change to what number you want.

Save/Exit

Reboot and ENJOY

Try and see what your preference is.

adb direction courtesy of "pklee"

adb pull /system/build.prop

open up a text editor and look for "ro.sf.lcd_density=240" change the 240 to desired number and save

adb push build.prop /system/build.prop

reboot

Below are some screeny's of mine at 220 and a compare shot at the stock 240.

After 1 220 View attachment 449860

After 2 220 View attachment 449861

Just a FYI... If you un tick "Show in compatibility mode" in the spare parts app, you won't have the certain apps small sized due to the density change. :)

Can someone explain to me what exactly this is doing? I can't really tell from the pictures and don't understand the way "density" is being used here.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Lakeshow423:
It makes the icons smaller and there's more space between icons. It looks cleaner. If you use HTC widgets, say like the clock, it sometimes distorts it and goes out of the regulated space. Try doing 220, you'll def. see the difference and see if the apps look ok. I'm at 230 and everything fits and looks good! Hope this clears up things.

Go for the captivate. The x10 is a little outdated and still has android 1.6. The 2.1 update should come soon but its gonna have limited 2 finger multitouch.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jzero88:
So I am on stock 2.2. Yes its unofficial and i get decent battery life with Superpower, could go all day with very minimal use. Now I took a look at my friends Vibrant today and a few things I noticed. He had used the display at full brightness longer than me, used phone calls a full hour more than me, pretty much did much more than I did with mine today, with us both taking the phone off charge around the same time. His battery percentage was at 49%, mine was at 20%.

Is it possible something else is going on with mine? I mean I have systempanel on, and I am checking what is using the cpu and its nothing. Nothing is, at least to drain it so badly. Maybe I got a faulty phone? Even on stock OTA JI6 I still had worse battery life. I duno? Anyway got any thoughts?
