I get the walled garden and what makes it attractive. It is kind of like the Matrix (or AOL). Plenty of people are content in their rigidly defined, "happy" world being machine food. However, others want to see the real world beyond someone else's vision of what it should be. People who want to make their own realities even if it is in a wasteland filled with choas and danger.

The iPAD v.2 will still be lcoked to iTunes and it still won't have Flash or USB support. Those are the deal breakers for me.
[G Tablet General] Acturbo:
Same deal breakers for me, and it costs more money too. The IPad works for most people and its very easy to use for the average users. I personally cant stand ITunes and I love the fact that I have flash on my device.
[G Tablet General] h_10:
i like the gtab. or rather i like the idea of the gtab. an open unlocked device that's ripe for modding and developing. i just wished they put a better screen on it. if the screen were usable, i'd keep this thing. i just physically can't use this thing for more than 30 mins at a time. i tried using it again a few times this morning and got a headache again.

i'll keep it for the kids to have something to play with and use during the xmas vacation. i'll take it back after xmas and wait for another more polished dual core android tablet w/ a better, ie usable, screen.

i really wanted to like the gtab.
[G Tablet General] Life in LA:
to be clear...

I have faith that once the builds start taking advantage of the real power of this tablet's hardware it will be faster than the iPad in every respect.

(the screen will still suck, but hey...)
[G Tablet General] Life in LA:
HEY NOW! I never said anything about getting rid of it! :)

My wife plays a ton of those flash based browser games and I'd be murdered if I took this thing away...
[G Tablet General] Acturbo:
Yours and mine both haha. If this thing could utilize shockwave I dont think I'd ever get a chance to play with it.(She loves POGO)
[G Tablet General] rcgabriel:
Rule #1 of G Tab: Never show your wife angry birds, lest you lose your G Tab.
[G Tablet General] pules:
mine went back

I loved the g tab with tnt 2.2......everything worked great on it (esp flash and angry birds), but I just couldn't take the screen anymore. So I returned it couple days ago.....

I'm catching my self missing it today but than i remember how crappy the screen is and look forward to another product.

The hardware on the g tab is great, but like what most of you are suggesting, it needs a better screen (which will probably increase price too)

Thank you roebeet and rest of the community for making such awesome ROMs.

The G tabs original OS is garbage.
[G Tablet General] Life in LA:
Great.

NOW you tell me.
[G Tablet General] xmr405o:
So umm where did u return it?:) there should be a I returned my gtab and this is where I returned it thread.
[G Tablet General] dragonfly1113:
lovin that idea!
[G Tablet General] NewbTrader:
I share the same sentiments as the OP. I really like the device, but the screen really is that bad, and I think I'm going to be returning it (got it from Staples). I personally don't get a headache from using it, but you need to hold it and view it at a very precise angle, or it washes out badly. Yes, I've flipped the screen around, but it's still pretty bad. I bought a 12" netbook/laptop for the wife and the viewing angles on that trump this tablet handily, and I find myself using that over the g tablet.. :(
[G Tablet General] mjforte:
I also feel the same as the OP. I just got the g tablet yesterday and I love the hackability and everything else about the device, but I also get headaches from using it. I hate to return it but I guess I'll have to wait for a tablet that comes out early next year with a better screen.
[G Tablet General] sano614:
Bought my gTab on Wednesday, returned it on Friday. I just couldn't get past the horrible screen, and I was getting a headache as well from using it.

Returned it to the Sears in Massapequa, NY if anyone is close to there.
[G Tablet General] S2W:
I don't get... but I guess its up to debate. I do adimt the viewing angles aren't the best but they aren't any different from the ones on a laptiop. You do get what you pay for on this device, its been the motto.

Maybe its just me... but im ok with the device.
[G Tablet General] zerozed99:
I think that with the G-Pad you actually get more than what you paid for. Heck...$349 for a tegra 2 pad with a resistive touchscreen, 16gb, USB, microSD, and no mandatory 3g data plans? That's a solid deal.

That's not to say that the screen isn't the greatest, but the hardware on the tablet is top notch, and the custom roms really make the thing a hot-rod with an admittedly bad paint job (i.e. the poor viewing angle).

All that said, most people will be holding the tablet 90% of the time, so the viewing angle is mostly NOT an issue for the user. I purchased both a G-Tab and an iPad and paid $200 more for a 16gb Wifi-only iPad. I think the Viewsonic is a hell of a deal.

tested and working on my dinc cyanogenmod 6.1 nightly 173

edit: here is a working version posted from the other thread. supposedly multi touch and predictions work. I haven't tested it yet myself.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] jiggadroid:
Works pretty nice but kind of a disappointment that its not multitouch. I font get why they would release a non multitouch keyboard as a new release bit overall its really smooth and responsive.

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] phoenixs4r:
Its a decent keyboard. Wish it were multi touch. Also disabled some htc widgets I had on home screen. No problem i just reloaded them. The keyboardbisblagging like crazy advice type this as well. Wow look at that word I juat ccreated.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] sneaky_zekey:
i get instant fc when trying to type on droid incredible running desire z rom
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] ihavenolife008:
someone bunked up if its not multitouch, a bummer.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] superchilpil:
Confirmed not working on desire z port
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] jiggadroid:
Completely agree I don't know how someone in there right mind thought it would be a good idea at this point in time to release a non myltitouch keyboard. I definitely itely felt like it was slowing me down.

Works fine with MIUI 12.03. Predictions and all.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] IISiDeK1CKII:
This has working text prediction baked in, multitouch and works on most build I tested it on (CM6, Myn's, RR, MIUI) not working on Desire z.

Working Gingerbread Keyboard
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Teh_Higgins:
Got FC when trying on DesireZ.

I thought i read somewhere that it was multi-touch. Sucks that its not.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] IISiDeK1CKII:
the port I posted is in fact multitouch. go check it out!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Teh_Higgins:
Fantastic news. I was just responding to peoples reports of lack of multi touch. Would definitely try it but I'm on a desire z rom. :(
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] IISiDeK1CKII:
one of the catch 22's of life I suppose... :(
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] madtomatoes:
I can confirm that it works on senseless revolution.

I feel like the space bar is much smaller though. Feels like I am hitting the v key instead of the space bar more than normal. But definitely feels very responsive
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] derickmc:
Works and looks great on UltimateDroid 2.0.3. The best ROM just got even better!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Gahh Its Lee:
Works on virtuous everything is great on it but I do miss my Smileys being two clicks away. Also this didn't replace my stock keyboard which is nice
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] jiggadroid:
Not sure what you guys are seeing but definitely not multitouch try typing the word he. With miltitoucj you could leave your finger on the h and press the e and the word would register. Instead with my right thumb still on h and pressing e with my left thumb it continually registers the h button. Not true myltitouch.

IISiDeK1CKII's port works perfectly (mutli-touch chording, prediction, etc.) on my Droid Inc running SkyRaider 3.3.4 with the Adrenelyn v2 kernel.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] russell5:
I love the new keyboard. So much better the only thing i will miss is the swipe up to get to numbers on the 2.2 keyboard.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] hEaTLoE:
As can I. Thanks for the port!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fronc:
The best way to test multitouch is to hold shift and type a letter (not the first letter of a sentence, though). Can anyone confirm multitouch to be working on this port?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] tehknics:
I just installed this this and it works great. Multitouch works perfectly. I'm running Virtuous 3.1 with the stock kernal. Thanks!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] hEaTLoE:
Working here.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] russell5:
I have installed this one too and holding down shift and typing letters does nothing.

CM nightly
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] redeyerev:
Me too and me too. Everything else seems to work fine though.

CM Nightly as well.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Gahh Its Lee:
I do infact have a working keyboard with multitouch

Im sure someone will find this useful i had the droid x keyboard installed and the flash replaced that and not my stock.

Also mine is in fact multitouch and its smooth as could ever be expected
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] tehknics:
This keyboard port replaced my Droid X keyboard as well. I've updated my last post to show that I'm running Virtuous 3.1. Holding shift while typing keeps everything in caps till I release it.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] sucker4pa1n:
Confirming multitouch works here on LithiumMod 0.0.5NG. The stock skin would go well with the Tang theme I think but it'd be nice to see it skinned/themed for red/blue etc.

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] tehknics:
On Droid Life's website it has pictures of the keyboard having a smiley face button, but I can't seem to find it anywhere. I've tried different types of text entry and haven't seen it so far. Anyone else?

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Gahh Its Lee:
Im wondering this as well i miss those smileys since i use them alot while typing to some people.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] mothy:
Any way to get a installable APK, i would love to try this on my Archos 101 but without root I cant flash?

Thanks
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] hadisious:
I can also attest. cm6.1 nightly173

multi-touch is NOT working with the same keyboard others have confirmed it working with.

Mine does have a smiley face button though. and a great one at that. lets you hold and select multiple faces. :)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fronc:
Same here, and I'm using Droid 1. I think there's probably a lib missing, some dependency not included in CM. I'm going to take this to the CM forums and see if we can get a fix.

Haven't tried flashing the DX kb since I'm on a D1.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Gahh Its Lee:
Hmm well i guess ill take multitouch over smileys :P
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] coreymm324:
using a Droid 1, predictive text doest work on it, but i do have smileys lol dont know about multitouch cuz i dont think D1 supports it

Droid Inc on Redemption Revolution

Multitouch and Prediction works PERFECTLYYYYY!!!

I love it! My new keyboard! Multitouch and DX/D2 keyboard never felt right for me before. HTC_IME has amazing prediction, but no multitouch. This combines all of the best elements of everything into a great package! LOVE IT!

P.S. I'm not a fan of swipe, never have been.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] busterbrown77:
Yup, same here. Tried tweaking settings, and fixing permissions to no avail.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] jiggadroid:
Glad it wasn't just me.. for a while I was the only 1 saying it wasn't working and I thought I was losing my mind haha
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Gahh Its Lee:
I just noticed the nexus s has a slightly better looking keyboard imo.

I clicked over to http://www.google.com/nexus/#!/index and the keyboard doesnt have the setting button right on the layout and i think it makes it look much better
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] rciucki:
you can disable the setting button in options with this gingerbread keyboard.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] russell5:
unrevoked put out a gingerbread keyboard.

Flashing it now to see whats different if maybe multitouch works

EDIT

Still no multi touch for me. No big though love this keyboard
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fronc:
http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/...titouch-working/page__pid__100126#entry100126

I started that thread at CM Forums. Maybe with a little buzz, someone will take a look at it. The D1's hardware certainly supports multitouch... its probably some dependency thats missing...
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] tehknics:
By disabling the settings button from the keyboard it brought a new button to the right of my space bar that looks like a right arrow into a bar (ie: ->| except all touching). It doesn't seem to have any function that I can find. Anyone else seen this?

Edit: So this button was actually there before, just smaller. It doesn't show up in a SMS, but it does show up in a google search entry for example.

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Stoney 666:
Here's a themed version i did. I got the unthemed keyboard from the warm thread that incubus posted yesterday, so i'm guessing it will work with most roms. originaly themed it for the warm light blue theme by hatman41, but maybe others might like it also.... ENJOY!!!

I'm running CM6 nightly 167 and when I load this, it FCs like crazy as soon as the phone finishes booting. When I say "like crazy", I mean once every second or 2, nonstop.

I loaded one of the droid2 keyboard ports that was throwing the tiny letters, but DOES have working multi-touch, then flashed this one over it and it worked, but no multi-touch. It sure does look pretty, though... :/

Edit to add: Text prediction does work. Pretty damn well!

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] jbdan:
Are you doing a long press on the input/dialogue box to change the input method to "multitouch keyboard"?

Open your sms app and go like your going to send a txt to someone. Long press in the input box and choose "multi-touch key"
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] mark-in-dallas:
Well, I learned something new today! The long press enabled me to select the from "Android Kyboard" or "Touch Input", but no choice for "Multitouch Keyboard". Selecting the Android Keyboard gave me the new keyboard, and I do have multitouch with it.

I assumed that after installing it I could select it in the menu, or that it would just appear. :o

Thanks for the help!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] jbdan:
Awesome glad it worked!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] TNS201:
The one that would be labeled Multitouch Keyboard would be either the Droid 2 or Droid X keyboard.

I'm not sure if anybody else has this problem, but I get a force close if I long press and use select text. Starts to allow me to select text and as soon as anything is highlighted it force closes. Oh and just to reinforce it, no multi touch.

I grabbed the one from incubus26jc at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=9636144#post9636144 - so far it seems to be working as intended on Virtuous 3.1, with chad0989's incredikernel-120810. Just a couple of questions I wanted to ask if anyone could spare the time to answer them: first of all, is the keyboard provided in this link the same one as the one provided by incubus? Secondly, I've noticed the absence of the button that used to be at the bottom left of the 2.2 stock keyboard (the button that minimizes/hides the keyboard) - where did the button go on the 2.3 keyboard? :( Lastly, for mine at least, I was able to go into the settings of the keyboard itself to select languages, but then found that Traditional Chinese was missing from the list of available languages. Does anyone have a fix for this? :x Thanks in advance for any and all help!

At least the 2.3 email.apk is (ALSO) missing the > Next and < Previous buttons!

like many other email.apk 's.

If you install the Android SDK you can install Gingerbread (2.3) yourself very easy and start an Android Virtual Device, a full graphical emulation of an Android device running the latest software. Very nice to see and test, and functionality is excellent.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] infotechsailor:
I also would like the new email.apk but for a more specific reason... it includes EAS (exchange activesync) functionalities that allow 2.3 gingerbread to connect to an exchange 2010 server that has applied the SP1 service pack.

as of yet, the email.apk included up to 2.2 has not worked with the new EAS features. I loaded up an emulator and have verified that gingerbread email.apk DOES in fact work with our exchange server, but I don't know how to pull this specific email.apk

I used to use ES file explorer to pull apks but on gingerbread ES file explorer FC's.

someone link it and you'll be my hee-row
