Follow up

Ok - I had to follow up on this again after using the keyboard for a few days. I don't think I did it much justice.

This keyboard is incredible. Not only is it simple looking (although you can apply other themes if you wish), the customizability (is that a word?) is insane. I spent forever just going through and playing with all the settings. Sometime it takes a while since you have to kill the keyboard and wait a second for it to come back in a typing app to test it, then go back to the settings menu, tweak, rinse & repeat.

I was thrilled to see that there are custom smiles because when I do use the smilies, which isn't often, I don't like them to have the 'dash' noses (ex. :-P ) I prefer the simple :P but maybe I'm just really picky. Having the customizable smilies is awesome. You could even just replace them with anything you use often. One downside however is if you add too many, they'll just run off the screen and you'll not have access to them.

The custom swipes is a nice feature as well. When you swipe along the keyboard in one of four directions, you can assign custom functions. I have my 'swipe-up' set to 'Shift' so I can get capital letters quickly. I know it doesn't seem quicker than pressing the shift key but it is for me. It just feels more natural too when I'm texting or emailing. You can even set a swipe to change languages , I think this would make multi linqual people very satisfied. Type BOOM Tipo BOOM 类型 BOOM Тип.

There are many other settings including the organization of buttons, word prediction and spelling settings, and much more. You can even save and restore settings!

Best of all... it's FREE!

Edit: Thanks again!

One more quickie

One last question... I noticed you posted the keyboard in CMDA Hero, but would this also work on my Galaxy S Tab?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] theimpaler747:
No this will not ;)
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] steve19137:
although you are obviously happy already, i found that the keyboard in the above thread doesnt work for my 6.1 setup. for others who run across this, see this thread.

So still learning all the fun things to do with roots , N whatnot.

so I guess the question is what comes next to getting this shiny goodness to 2.2 or back to stock? I load the odin files but if i never dl'd rom manager >> how do i get past the "update from sd card" in the recovery screen?

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davidtanis:
do you have drivers installed?

do you have odin 3v

if so turn phone off, plug usb in with the phone off wait for the battery icon and then press and hold vol up and down then press power, as soon as the screen changes let go of them. you should see the android with downloading. now your ready to odin the files to the phone
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmatic:
You don't need recovery for running odin.

First you need to get into download mode. With phone off.... Hold down both volume buttons and plug in the usb that is connected to your computer.

It should say downloading with a triangle graphics. Now you are ready to odin.

If you already learned how to odin. Its pretty straight forward from here.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] markoo89:
I posted this in q&a section, but I hope that someone here will be able to help me.

So I installed the newest doc bujp8 v9.0.1 rom on my galaxy s. I have a problem with applying lagfix schemes. Which ever scheme I use it only converts the DATA_FS, CACHE_FS and DBDATA_FS while the other partitions (LOOP partitions an BIND partition) always give the false result. In example when I apply Ext4 ALL scheme it only converts the first 3 partitions (_FS partitions) and all other give the result =false. In advanced options I can change the LOOP partitions only to Ext2 or false. I hope that I explained everything and that someone can help me to figure out what's the problem
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Qazz~:
Have you tried ext4 overkill?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] markoo89:
Yes i tried every scheme and it only changes the partitions ending with _FS all other result =false. I don't know what's the problem, and I hope that someone can help.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] R64:
It is supposed to only change the fs partitions. The other options that are false are the ability to add an ext2 loop device. In your case you haven't enabled an extra ext2 loop device so it is listed as false which means off.

To understand the options better read the startpost from those kernel topics.

In short, you don't have a problem this is normal.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dupel:
And this is a problem how? You dont need loop - it speeds up only handful of apps and slows down 99% of others.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] markoo89:
So it is better for loop partitions to stay false, because when I convert them to ext2 it gives me higher quadrant score?

To all who are lucky and already have a HTC 7 (HD, Mozart's Trophy) and are using the GPS which maps are you using? ;)

Bing maps? :confused:

What application ?:rolleyes:

Thanks.

Hi,

As I'm using a T-Mobile contract, I'm using the free Navigon that comes with the contract. It's a complete navigation program which also provides offline maps ;)

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmason68:
They aren't free. They are subsidized by the 2 year contract Verizon makes you sign. You are paying for the phone in installments. Phew...glad I got that off my chest. Carry on.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Okay, I don't want to come off strong, and this isn't only aimed at you, but I'm tired of seeing posts like this. I understand pointing out the distinction that the phones aren't actually free, but the practicality of the matter is that if you're going to be paying for your phone service whether you upgrade or not, then the phone IS free because it's not costing you any more by upgrading than it is to keep using your old phone. Sure, you're agreeing that you'll be keeping the service for another two years (or pay an early termination fee), but how often do most people switch mobile carriers?

Jeesh.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmason68:
What you said is absolutely true. If you are going to stay with Verizon anyway, you might as well leverage their NE2 and upgrade deals to get cool phones. I just would like for people to understand that the phones come at a cost. If some great deal comes along where you'd save a bunch of money if you switched, you can't. If you can't afford a smartphone anymore...too bad. You still have to pay for it.

I'll probably mention it again at some point. My apologies in advance. :-)
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
That's okay! LOL. Thanks for taking my comment in stride.

Actually, there's nothing preventing you from still using some old flip phone and not having the data charges any more, if you decide to change. The contract is only that you keep your phone service. There's no requirement that you keep your level of data plan, or that you even keep using your smart phone at all. You could sell it (they might not like it but they don't actually do anything about it) and use the funds to buy an old flip phone plus have some money left over, unless you keep your old phones (I wouldn't, I'd sell or recycle them for money), then it would be all profit.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmason68:
Interesting... I was going to buy a Samsung Fascinate from a guy who bought it through Verizon for his kid, and then decided that they didn't really need data. He had already switch out phones. When I ran the ESN it came up bad. So I had him call Verizon and they said he couldn't drop the data plan, so he didn't sell me the plan.

And honestly, that makes sense. Otherwise everyone would grab a $400 phone for some cheap price, then immediately switch to some cheaper phone and sell the expensive one. So I don't think its as simple as you make it sound to drop the data plan.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 56K:
Hmmm looks like i can only "annual" upgrade at Verizon, if i want the cheap prices i would have to wait till june.:mad:
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 56K:
might just get a DInc for 99.99, then do the Verizon trade in on the Eris for 132....or strip it down and use it as a VOIP phone or something for the house.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmason68:
Do you have the link to the Verizon trade in handy?

FYI, depending on the phone, sometimes http://wsf4.letstalk.com/flipswap/modelselectionpopup.htm gives much more. I checked one phone a couple months ago and it was more than double on one than the other. And it was vice-versa with a different phone I had. Note that I haven't actually used either service yet, so I can't rate them.

I sold them on eBay for much more $$$! :D :D :D
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 56K:
Checked the Eris on said sight....58 bucks.:o
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmason68:
Maybe its one of those things where it depends on who you talk to, or how adamant you are. If you can do really do that, seems like you could really work the system. When phones are brand new to the market, the go for crazy prices.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I never did anything special or had to say a word to anyone. Shrug!
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 56K:
me neither, i did get my Eris for $50 bucks on release date by mentioning about going to att for the iPhone.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmason68:
Weird. OK well if you really can do that, and drop the data plan all together, it makes the whole Verizon subsidized phone thing more appealing. Maybe that explains how there are always a bunch of new smartphones on eBay.

Takes more time to decide what you wanna do with a rooted phone than to actually root it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonyfiore75:
Is there any way to re-load the default Samsung Captivate calendar app without starting from scratch? I deleted it thinking that I wouldn't really need it (stupid)and now I realize most calendar apps look for it. If not, is there an independent calendar app that could replace it?

Thanks a lot.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] curti.nogg:
Are you on stock or a custom rom? If it's the latter I would just download the zip again, extract the calender apk and place it in the correct folder (using root explorer or whatever) and apply permissions again, and reboot.

Sent from my Captivate
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonyfiore75:
Every time I try to install the apk it tells me that it could not be installed. I tried downloading it from a few different sources and I get the same result every time. I put it into the system folder and try to instal it from there. I've gotten rid of all the other calendar files. No clue why I can't install the new one. I'm rooted and have permissions to side-load apps. any advice?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cappysw10:
Because you don't need to install it. Put the apk in the system folder, make sure it has the correct file permissions and then reboot. Done!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonyfiore75:
Okay. Well, it's now in the System folder as far as I can tell. I rebooted andthe Calendar is still not installed. What I'm not sure about is the permissions. What are the "correct permissions"? as in, what should they be set to and how would I chane them if I needed to?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonyfiore75:
Anyone? This has been driving me crazy for like two weeks now.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonyfiore75:
Still no dice...

Okay, I'm taking a crack at bumping this again. Honestly, I have no idea why this isn't working. I see the apk and odex files listed under my /system folder.

When I check Titanium Backup I see the following files:

com.android.calendar

com.android.providers.calendar

They're both crossed out.

Why won't they install? What am I doing wrong?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diablo009:
I think these apps should be under "/system/app" and not "/system" folder.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonyfiore75:
Yeah, I also have them under /system/app but still no luck. This is really driving me nuts. They're there. For all intents and purposes the phone SHOULD recognize them and install them... but it doesn't. Weird. I honestly don't know what I should do except forget it.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakeneal22:
Okay to start off I love my nexus one and would not buy an iphone so all the android fanboys don't jump on my case. But there are some software aspects of the iphone that i like. For instance I like the way messages show up on the lockscreen on the iphone and the iphones multi-tasking. I was wondering if it would be possible to implement the iphone style of multi-tasking into the nexus one. Basically the trackball can still be used for selection and all that good stuff if you even do that, but if you double tap it at a selectable speed it would open recent apps. Or even go further to make the scroll bar that the iphone has. Give me some response on this, tell me what you guys think.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vvaffles:
what is this...i dont even?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakeneal22:
what is your question? I want to somehow have a setting in the nexus one where if you double tap the trackball it will open up recent apps and possibly implement an iphone like scroll bar at the bottom.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imfloflo:
Sorry for asking but.... Are you sure you know how to use your Nexus ?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakeneal22:
yes i know how to hold the home button... lol
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] william tanaya:
and? why would you want to double tap your trackball? you know iphone do that because they only have one button right?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gravufo:
also it would create huge issues for selection with trackball...

Let's say while wanting to double tap the trackball for multitasking, you had something selected, the first click should theoretically open that app/link directly...if we implement such feature, people that actually use the trackball for opening stuff will have delays, which sucks massively.

All in all, this idea is awful. You can make the number of recent apps higher in Cyanogen, do that and you won't need the scrolling bar of the iPhone...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crachel:
If you want to double tap something, download QuickDesk PRO and set it to open on double tap of home key. It has a 'QuickPanel' feature that shows recent apps and its a fantastic piece of sofware.

For the messages on lockscreen.. download WidgetLocker and place Pure Messenger Widget on the lockscreen..
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pulser_g2:
chompSMS does this lockscreen "thing", and even allows you to reply to them without unlocking, if you so wish, and relocks after.

For double-tap home, there's literally loads of multitasker apps that can do that, even offering "coverflow" style switching between apps...

OP, the reason double tap is a feature on iPhones is because of the lack of buttons. Steve only likes to push is customer's buttons, not his phone's
