[Desire Android Development] robbiekhan:
Thanks for the link. Flashed on my Desire on Oxygen and it's great. I also have installed the latest Swype BETA and HTC_IME_Mod and I prefer the Gingerbread one over the others now as I find typing fast on it is much easier and it's quicker at picking correct auto suggest words. looks nicer too!

The main thing I like though is the way punctuation marks can be input after you've spelt your word and press space the suggest bar shows you punctuations and common symbols, no need to hold a button for ! etc. Nice touches like that make the experience more enjoyable.
[Desire Android Development] wahur1:
Please tell me does it come up with English dictionary?
[Desire Android Development] robbiekhan:
Dictionary works fine for me.
[Desire Android Development] wahur1:
Oh thanks. I'll flash soon.
[Desire Android Development] piam:
But isnt the ginger bread keyboard suppose to look any different? mine looks the same as before. Ive seen screen shots of people looking orange, mines just the standard froyo keyboard. Thanks
[Desire Android Development] traspler:
Used it some more but I had quite some issues:

- I disabled the suggestion bar but in landscape it always popped up (black and empty)

- In the settings it says the German dictionary is available but it only corrects in English (even when selecting the german keyboard)

- Suggestion bar is hit or miss when used in portrait. Often it doesn't pop up

- No Multitouch here
[Desire Android Development] gippy2:
Ahh ok only some saw that it said Android keyboard and didnt click on it to try. My appologies I hope you get it sorted it certainly is nice.:)
[Desire Android Development] wahur1:
ok i've just now flashed it. but i still see the old keyboard and not the gingerbread one ? how to activate ?
[Desire Android Development] robbiekhan:
If you cannot see it it probably did not flash properly, reflash it with verification disabled.

You don't activate it, ti replaces the 2.2 keyboard.
[Desire Android Development] wahur1:
while flashing i didn't get any error message ? do you think i should flash it again by disabling the verification ?
[Desire Android Development] robbiekhan:
Hmm I had errors with verification enabled (AmonRA v2.0.0) so flashed with it off and worked flawlessly!
[Desire Android Development] wahur1:
im on clockwork recovery.

i can see two "android settings" tab under keyboard option. does that mean i have successfully flashed the file?
[Desire Android Development] robbiekhan:
Looks like this?
[Desire Android Development] wahur1:
nop not like this :s...i have two android settings tab.

Though now its working. hold down the screen in message window and it ask for the input method from there i changed the keyboard.

but i can't find it in settings as its appearing in your screenshot :s..

Whatever it is...im using gingerbread keyboard now lol :D
[Desire Android Development] mralimcb:
Thanks Adam, wondering if this will work on a DHD ROM? Using baadnewz DHD atm!
[Desire Android Development] randomelements:
Works well on my phone using a modified stock Sense rom on Orange.

The only thing that doesn't work properly is editing words. If you radio a writes to edit it and select the correction it inserts that at the cursor without replacing the original word, for example:

Type: thus

Select word: th|us

Correct to this: ththisus

I imagine it's because the keyboard relies on the new text selection engine in gingerbread which froyo obviously doesn't support.
[Desire Android Development] zoltrix:
Anyone else find this keyboard to be crappy?

I get wayy more typos with the gingerbread keyboard then i ever did with the froyo and below one..
[Desire Android Development] Moe5508:
+1...and whatever happened to BlindType? That small start-up that had been developing a really killer virtual keyboard for Android/+other devices that Google bought up a couple of months back? http://www.blindtype.com/

I see site is not even live anymore...there used to be a announcement about the acquisition not too long ago on this site...

Using MIUI 0.12.3 FR i have issues when i flash :

:

E:Missing files :

system/tts/lang_pico/es-ES_ta.bin

E:verification system failed

???????
[Desire Android Development] BMelz:
I think its because it's missing the english dictionary, it seems that every word I type I'm able to add to the dictionary!

Is there a separate file to send over which contains the dictionary?
[Desire Android Development] robbiekhan:
Turn off verification, this has nothing to do with what ROM you're on!
[Desire Android Development] peaterha:
+2

Thought the same thing myself. Figured they would stuff that keyboard straight in here.
[Desire Android Development] thestupidmonkey:
Thanks !! only english i suppose but great !
[Desire Android Development] mralimcb:
Verification already turned off, still FC
[Desire Android Development] savah:
Reflashed this but it is missing Greek characters. Anyone got an idea of how to go back to the stock 2.2 one ??? Please help. Saved the original .apk to the root of the sdcard, but I cannot install it.
[Desire Android Development] MacCarron:
Ok I still quite haven't figured out if the various apks and zips available here @ xda come with any dictionaries at all..so i'm attaching the keyboard+lib i baked for myself yesterday..there's a ****load of dictionaries included ("Dizionario disponibile" means the dictionary is available). I'm currently using it on CM6.1 and I have tested english,italian and french. I guess the others should work just fine as well..Just remember that if your rom doesn't support a certain language, the corresponding dictionary won't show up. Flash via recovery.
[Desire Android Development] BMelz:
Thanks Mac... that fixed me up nicely.
[Desire Android Development] ronijs19:
Nice. Wait language fix. :)

[Desire Android Development] westlife:
Well. I have the HD ROM Baadnwz v1.0 atm.

Installed the one from the link...

lets see.. *booting*

Well. It doesn't work. Someone said about HD in different directory.

Can someone cook one for HD Roms?

Thanks.
[Desire Android Development] Hog Milanese:
This is crap.

It locked me into a boot loop of death and now I'm having to format and re-flash everything.

I can only re-start Angry Birds so many times before I lose interest!

Horrible port - DO NOT INSTALL THIS OR ELSE!!!!!!
[Desire Android Development] mad-murdock:
hey troll,

its always great to flame people who put something up for the community. this is not a PORT btw, since it was release far before sources became available, but i somehow doubt you understand the differences here.

btw: other people managed to get this installed - also a keyboard cannot create bootloops - so you screwed up

happy trollin'
[Desire Android Development] penguinolog:
Where to get dictionaries (source) for this keyboard? I'm need Russian for recompile myself.

Thank you!
[Desire Android Development] spaboleo:
Is there a working (on a Desire of course) modded version of the latest Gingerbread keyboard out anywhere?

By modded I mean with options to change the "popup-delay" and add a "smileybutton" like in the HTC IME mod. :)

That would be awesome!

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] spaboleo:
Hey,

me again with the same question :)

I really would like to change the "popup-delay", because it's duration is too high for my tipping-behaviour. Special characters always slow me down and break the otherwise quite fluent typing.

Thanks a lot!

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lazerus06:
I have an HTC Evo that has been fine for quit some time.

I was running the AVA-Froyo rom and yesterday the screen would what only I can describe as jitter back and forth between my home screens without me touching it. I would hit the app launcher and it would scroll up and down when I would barely swipe the screen once. I would fire up a game like Dungeon Hunter and the controls on screen were un responsive.

I was wanting to try the Frost rom anyway so I thought it was a good time to wipe and install it. After I did, I am seeing the same types of things(although not quit as bad).

Is my hardware failing or did something go wrong with the roms?

Thanks in advance for any help.

[Hero CDMA General] sladehawke:
What would be the best rom to flash before transferring my Hero over to a new line? I am just giving it to a family member, so no need to do anything drastic here. I still have my stock nandroid of 1.5 that I've been using to update PRL's with on the SD card, but if I can hand it to them with a "modern" rom that can be used to update PRL/Profile, I'd rather do that.

Any suggestions? Is Fresh 2.4.0 still a viable rom, or maybe something like LiquidSense 2.1?

I'm assuming that none of the ported 2.2 roms will work for this. And this person is a non-techy, so they will not be wanting Cyanogen. I'd rather them have the sense dialer instead of AOSP anyway...

Thanks for the reply. Every WSJ app on the Market links to the mobile sight. I want the app that looks like the iPad app, the official WSJ/Dow Jones app. Please post if you have it.

What's the problem you're having with sideload wonder machine? I was using it just fine when I was still on the stock AT&T firmware. I debranded to generic LAM and then updated to 2.1 when it was released for that firmware. I can point you in the right direction for that if you wanna go that route (highly recommended).
[XPERIA X10 General] Narvarr:
I used the sideload method to install superoneclick to root mine. The key to getting the side load to work is downloading the SDK program and drivers for android phones. Then it works like a charm. Try the Z4Root.apk in the market as well.

you can root your at&t x10 with z4root i also have a at&t x10 and can verify it is a one click root that works flawlessly. look for it here in the forums

Some impressive stuff. That Motorola Tab looks fantastic.

The UI seems interesting, looks more desktop orientated (or just widgets with more details taking use of the extra space? Hard to see).

So much stuff announced in advance. Very refreshing.
[Nexus One General] Award Tour:
It was hard to see from the screenshots but Honeycomb looked dark and glow-y blue-ish, very Google TV like in some areas which I really, really wanted Gingerbread to be. So if Honeycomb is the true UI overhaul that we all hoped for, and it seems to be, thank god! Gingerbread looks like a Christmas tree floating in outer space -- 6 months of looking at that will be pretty harsh though.

[Android Apps and Games] fupamobile:
well I am one of the types of people that think being charged for sending text is ridiculous when i have internet on my phone

But just sending text to someones cell number, rather than email/aim/other Instant messengers that not many people use, is pretty convenient. cell providers could easily scrap the fee and send our texts via 3g internet and everything would work fine.

Has anyone here at XDA developers dug into this subject yet? I remember when i had aim people could send messages to my phone with aim and i could send messages to aim also.

I have the verizon fascinate (galaxy s). and this is my first cell phone
[Android Apps and Games] fupamobile:

no one is interested in saving 10-15 dollars a month?
[Android Apps and Games] TtWEAK:
I (and a lot of other people) use Google Voice.
[Android Apps and Games] EleCtrOx666:
I think you mean sending free messages. If the other has also a smartphone with internet, take a look at PingChat WhatsApp(both free).
[Android Apps and Games] fupamobile:
ya this is the type of thing i am talking about.

although what would be ideal would be to not have to have a program like that. like somehow recieve/send texts normally with your cell number but just have it go through the 3g network and not the network the carrier uses for text/pics/vids.
[Android Apps and Games] khaytsus:
So you want it to be sent/received the same way as SMS, but free....

Yeah.. No. You're going to have to use Google Voice or some sort of chat program.
[Android Apps and Games] Wunako:
i would say use ping or even kik, kik is getting very popular over cross platforms. (iPone, BB etc) as long as the other ppl have kik u should be able to text, if not jus look for a app on market
[Android Apps and Games] fupamobile:
ya i mean. thats just ludicrous. why try to save money. lets just continue being ripped off.....

cell phones with data packages should not have to pay for sending text/vids/pics. is that really hard to understand?

i thought kik was just text and not pics or vid
[Android Apps and Games] Spitemare:
A text message has to be delivered to the recipient somehow. It doesn't go directly to the intended person but rather to your carrier. Your carrier will then either route it to the recipient if on the same network or forward the message to the recipient's network who takes over delivery. Guess who wants money to use their networks in this way?

If you want to text for free then you'll have to get a Google Voice number and route your texts through that. Google is basically doing the routing for free.
[Android Apps and Games] fupamobile:
do you seriously not understand what i am saying here? your paying for a 3g connection(INTERNET) that is fully capable of sending texts etc. While SIMULTANEOUSLY paying to use another form of connection to do the same job that is easily executed on the other internet connection.

the carrier could easily route text messages to use the 3g network instead of the sms/mms network. they choose not to because they can rip off people who dont realize the situation. what the hell do you think gmail is? come on guys. this isnt a hard concept to grasp.
[Android Apps and Games] K900:
It is GOD DAMN IMPOSSIBLE to send texts over 3G until YOUR CARRIER allows you to cause ALL TEXTS go through the CARRIERS and you CAN'T hack into THEIR network.
[Android Apps and Games] Spitemare:
You're vastly oversimplifying this in your head. The infrastructure to send and receive text messages is already in place and works regardless of phone model and capabilities. You can have a smartphone, feature phone, or dumb phone (that can text) and the infrastructure will handle it all the same. Adding the capability to use the data connection to tap into this infrastructure would cost lots of money for the carriers and potentially expose the SMS infrastructure to vulnerabilities.

Could the carriers do this? Certainly, but they're not going to do it out of the goodness of their hearts. Not only would they be losing texting revenue from a larger and larger portion of their base but the costs to implement any such changes would be highly unlikely to bring in any return.

The carriers aren't providing services to make you feel good. They are in it to make money and will do so in ways that you might not agree with. Texting has proven to be a very viable revenue stream and the carriers certainly don't want to endanger that by developing alternative methods to access the same service at no cost just for you.

Email and SMS are very, very different. One has no guarantees about notification while the other depends on it.
[Android Apps and Games] fupamobile:
read the entire post freak. never did i say we should hack into their network. your just mad

I don't normally bother with brainless posts like fupamobile's responses but damn... I get the point (and agree) about paying for texting.

Why can't you understand? The q was answered long time ago.
[Android Apps and Games] bongd:
fupamobile, you cannot do what you've proposed. If you want to use the SMS system, you must adhere to the current rules and regulations. You can circumvent being charged by using an instant messaging program, but you will not be able to use the actual SMS system without having to pay one way or another.

I live in Canada and we have the highest wireless rates in the world and I have unlimited messaging, 6GB of data and a very good plan which comes to about $50 a month after tax. You can't get everything in life for free. At least if you're in the United States you can use Google Voice and get free voice calling, I think even SMS but I'm not sure as it's not here. You can get very reasonable voice, data and text plans and with all the free calling and IM clients I can't see why one would also need free SMS. If it's that highly valued, simply subscribe to an SMS plan through your provider.

I personally send and receive thousands of SMS each month and could absolutely not survive without it. I use it more than voice services.
[Android Apps and Games] kevin2516:
don't some plans give you free text to certain numbers? or is this a totally different topic? sorry for my confusion, cause here in aus, i get free text to people on the same carrier like i am. but if you mean free texts to everyone, then, my bad.

And yes, +1 for google voice essentially doing what you want.
