[Captivate Themes and Apps] eep2378:
Wtf I've been troubleshooting this issue all night and can't seem to figure it out. I'm using the vlingo kb which I don't mind but this has me irked. I'm running a JK3 based rom(perception) and others on this rom have installed it without issue. Heck I'm running gingerbread theme without a hitch. Anyone have any thoughts on how to fix this?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] tysj:
I'd like to find a solution as well since I'm on Perception 7 and can't this to work for some reason. What's weird is that a version without the auto-correct worked for me. Didn't get it from here, though.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] kennethpenn:
Try downloading the zip, opening it up and Root Explorer copying the files to their respective places.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] tysj:
I've tried that as well, still FC's. I kinda gave up on it after a day of messing around with it. Ended up flashing to Perception 8 anyways which includes it (credits to you). Now it's working great!
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ronandi:
Anyone know if vibration will be fixed anytime soon, or is there some big problem?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] kennethpenn:
Good to hear

@other guy ---> No vibration until a more experienced dev looks at this project. Trust me... I want it badly.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] eep2378:
and how would I do that exactly? Can I use astro file manager to copy the files?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] eep2378:
anyone on Perception build 4 using this keyboard?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] magikspl:
I got some beer money waiting for anyone who can link or reference a way to take the period button away from the right side of the space bar on ANY keyboard for android. I can't stand that button and found an awesome iphone replica keyboard in market but it doesn't have auto correct dictionary, only suggests from my contact names. And why is it that keyboards use their own dictionary and not some system or global dictionary on the phone. That doesn't make any sense
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ronandi:
In smart keyboard you can now turn off the comma and period keys. The options were added in the later version and there are themes (including iphone ones)
[Captivate Themes and Apps] magikspl:
You my friend are a life saver. Of all the keyboards I've tried, I must of missed this one. Works perfectly.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Cboss:
Anyone confirm?

Using this lovely new keyboard gingerbread iv'e noticed that when typing in the text field....if you use the copy/past function and copy all the way to the left you get a FC?....anyone else?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] eatkabab:
Excellent.

The stock android keyboard is always the fastest and has the best auto correct.

Thank you very very very VERY much...
[Captivate Themes and Apps] eep2378:
Well I've about given up on this. Cant seem to get this to take.....just FC's over and over!
[Captivate Themes and Apps] kennethpenn:
I'm sorry. Don't know why you would get so many FC's. Did you try an alternate ROM?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] eep2378:
No but I'm using a perception ROM(build 4) and now DG is giving you credit for providing this kb in his latest perception rom. So I'm not sure why there would be incompatibility
[Captivate Themes and Apps] kennethpenn:
Build 4 is pretty dated at this point, no? DG's probably changed a million and a half things since then that would make this incompatible.

Again, I really wish I could help all of you more. But, a good developer is desperately needed to fix some of the issues on this thing.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] eep2378:
Dated? Maybe. Your right about DG probably changing a bunch of stuff. For me though, build 4 is the most stable and everything works flawlessly including GPS. Hspu works without issue. Looking through the perception thread and you find alot of users staying or reverting back to 4 for reasons I just stated. Alot of issues with the newer builds. Thanks for your input, I appreciate it. I'll go without this KB until I flash a new rom. I might just wait for the new bell froyo to get worked out :)

Force Close fix

I tried installing this keyboard about 12 times with the same results...constant force close after successfully installing.

The fix I found...

When I flashed to Cognition v2.3b6 I hated losing the default Android keyboard. So I found the walk through on putting it back in. A few posts back I saw someone report having the same trouble and mentioning he had also re-installed the keyboard and now was having the force closes...and the light bulb went off.

I flashed back to Cog v2.3b6 and instead of putting the default keyboard back I installed the Gingerbread keyboard and Hatchie Matchie it works!
[Captivate Themes and Apps] hellishhorses:
buttons are too small, I'll stick with a keyboard for fat fingers.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Shadow416:
I am using Doc's ROM modified (build 18 i think?). I followed all the instructions and requirements but for some reason I don't see the Android keyboard in my settings. I've tried doing it several times, but I keep getting the same results. Also now the multi-touch keyboard that came with the ROM crashes whenever I try to use it. Any suggestions?

EDIT: I have a Captivate. I don't know if that makes a difference or not.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] alias3800:
Hey has anyone been able to add the Spanish dictionary to the keyboard? Or does anyone know how to?

Thanks.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] davwman:
wont install on assonance 4.3 with jk4 modem and xcalibur 2.2 kernel?

nevermind it installed...
[Captivate Themes and Apps] kennethpenn:
I was gonna say... that's weird, because I use that combo.

It would mean a lot if you all hit the "thanks" button on my post if you used this to get the GB keyboard!
[Captivate Themes and Apps] rurouni572:
How can I uninstall this and put on the 2.2 android keyboard? I liked being able to pull up numbers by swyping upward passed the qwerty and being able to access numbers that way. With this keyboard I have to long press the top row or switch to numbers.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] DAGr8:
fyi autocorrection only works in englilsh , well it wont work in fench it says french on the keyboard when applied but it still auto corrects in english ..
[Captivate Themes and Apps] kennethpenn:
Update: My full Android 2.3 Gingerbread styling guide is now available.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] alias3800:
I don't know if this will change your mind, but it's worth throwing out there: If you press and hold the numbers (alt) key, you can push in any number, then let go of the numbers key and you're back to letters. It also works great for punctuation, or with the shift key.

I personally love the keyboard (although I have my gripes) and plan on keeping it for now.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] smeltn:
Can't get it to install on Axura 2.2 gets the E: mount error thing
[Captivate Themes and Apps] crusecontrl:

Help with apostrophes

Hi everyone,

I just switched to this keyboard after experimenting with Swype for sometime. One thing that is puzzling me is the use of apostrophes. For example, when I want to say "I've" I type in "ive" and instead of converting to I've it remains ive. the only way to add in the apostrophe between the letters is to hit 123?, go to that screen, enter the apostrophe, return to the original screen then keep typing. the second option being to hold down the period/full stop key until the pop-up of punctuation marks appear then insert from there. Phew! Is there a faster and easier way to do this? For example, can I get my dictionary to prioritize I've over ive and I'm over im?

On that note, is there anyway to edit the dictionary? I know that in Swype you can highlight a word and tap the Swype key to erase it. How about in Gingerbread keyboard? Or, like above, choose to prioritize some words over others.

Thanks so much for all your help!

[Nook Color General] blacter:
Since the Gmail app isn't yet working on our rooted Nooks, I've been using K-9 Mail (Version 3.319). It works fine, but would be a bunch better if I could figure out a couple of features.

First, is there any way to link the K-9 Mail to Contacts, so I wouldn't have to type the recipient's email address every time I send a message?

And, second, is there a way to change or remove the Signature ("Sent from my Android phone with K-9 Mail. Please excuse the brevity.") I had it removed once -- on an earlier version of the program -- but now can't find that option in Settings.

Thanks for the help.
[Nook Color General] chuffykow:
When you're on the Inbox screen, hit the menu soft key, go to More -> Settings -> Account Settings

Then go to Sending mail -> Manage identities -> <your identity>

From there, you can un-check the Use Signature button and/or change your signature
[Nook Color General] obra:
Account -> Account Settings -> Sending Mail -> Signature.

Sorry, I haven't looked at B&N's custom contacts stuff yet. But I'd take patches

Ok. I gone though many clumsy that explains how to access market on gtab. Every forum talk about stopping the already installed markek from setings-application-market. But when I browse to settings-applications I could not see market. So what I am missing here. Does market app come by default with firmware version or I have to Instll it separatly,
[Android Apps and Games] IAIRonI:
I'm always afraid to make new threads on the lovely XDA forums because most of the time an issue has already been brought up etc... I didn't find anything on this specific question so yup.

I want to use ADW but use the Launcherpro widgets. I've looked into editing the apk's but I am not capable of doing so mainly because I would have no idea what I am doing, I've changed some skins and icons around on some apps before but this just seems way too advanced for me to attempt. Anyone know of anyway this might be possible? Ideally I wouldn't even want the entire launcherpro launcher on my phone just the widgets, so yeah, that is my question.

Hi,

I was wondering whether there was an application that could make the Start Windows Icon colorful as it was on Windows 6.1.

Also, is there any way to change the first orange Windows screen when the phone is turned on? It is sooooo ugly!!!!

Thx.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sure haven't:
Attached a startup animation courtesy of a developer at modaco (forum won't let me post the link for some reason. It's the desktop windows 7 startup screen and animation, very nice looking.

As for the colourful windows icon, I personally prefer the sleek white one, but there are a ton of taskbar cabs and mods, just have to google for them.

One you might want to look into is called BattClock I believe, and is available somewhere here at xda.

U can use adb on Win or linux or qtadb.

Give these commands on adb shell..

exit

adb pull /system/etc/gps.conf

Edit the gps.conf the way u like.

Then mount again in rw mode.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dinglehoofis:
My dad got a desire z like a week ago and the screen needs to be replaced because its blotchy. He flashed what I understand to be a generic Nordic Rom to it (he lives 3 hours away so I haven't seen it). He didn't know to do a nandroid backup so that's out of the question.

He's tech savvy but new to the platform, is there any easy way for him to revert back?

That's very odd. Can't boot up or something? Maybe a CWM problem? I doubt that a zip that adds a .apk and modifies keyboard files would soft brick the phone in itself. Must be something to do with a recovery failure? I don't know.
