cm7 and nook color

Hi, first off I want to say thank you for this excellent keyboard! Recently I switched my nook color over to cm7(nightly 26) and the keyboard just FC everytime I try to select it (by the long press method) when using the test layout in settings the standard keyboard just shows up... I tried with both stock kernel and oc one... tried unistall/reinstall... Any idears?

I don't get why this don't work on a Velocity Cruz T103???
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] appelflap:
Did you follow the 2 steps that are described in the "thumb keyboard" app in your app drawer? Don't forget the second step (many people do) to long press in a text input field and select Thumb Keyboard from the "input method" menu.

If your device doesn't support third party keyboards try to copy the apk to the /system/app directory and reboot. Of course you have to be rooted to do this. After that follow the 2 installation steps.

hi all,

i bought the paid version of thumb keuboard, and it work well on archos 101 (android 2.2.1).

i have some feature request :

1) is it possible to add some key in a future version ?

i talk about ESC CTRL ALT INSERT PGUP PGDOWN ORIG END, etc...

OR can you made a full azerty pc keyboard layout ? i think it coult be usable on 10.1" tablet like archos 101.

i ask for these keys because i use SSH apps and VI....

2) can you add one more smiley ? <3 (because my girl love heart ^^)

3) in the azerty layout, can you add the "alternate characters" ?

thank you for your attention and sorry for my bad english.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] JoelSSK:
heyy, this looks pretty sweet, can i get some more feedback on how good it works? does it make typing faster?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] appelflap:
1. Almost all will be added to the Honeycomb version. Have to find a way yet to make them also work for other Android versions

There's a full azerty PC keyboard layout. Just choose "regular layout" from the layout menu. (of course with azerty selected in the international keyboard settings)

2. LoL I was planning to delete some... on the other hand, maybe I give the user an option to choose between a full set of Smileys or just a subset.

3. I've added them in the latest version (3.02)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] appelflap:
Definitely :) but I may be biased.

Anyway a new version is planned for the next week with all new functionalities added that the new Gingerbread keyboard has. Amongst others it will add multi-touch, tap to change a word with suggestions in Android 2.3 and higher, flick popup keyboards and more. Also the update will contain another performance boost.

If you love to thumb type this keyboard will definitely make your typing faster, on the phone as well as on the tablet. And with the new version it even will be a state of the art regular keyboard.

Would it be possible for you to add this to the Amazon App Store?

I know Amazon's is US only at this point, but it would be a convenient way for me to buy it.

And who knows, if Amazon picks your app for their free app of the day, you'll get a lot of money :)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] appelflap:
I submitted it more than a week ago and it is still "under review"
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] yaok:
ok thank you for your response... i buy it from "archos apps store", not from "android market"... then i have the 2.9.1 not the 3.02 ^^

and i just learn that there is plenty of market/apps store/etc... for android, i'm feel like a stupid noob!:D

how i can update it ?:confused:
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] appelflap:
just mail me. The mail address is in the about box of the main app in the app drawer (menu - about). Maybe I will update the app on appslib also, however I'm reconsidering the markets I put the keyboard on. Maybe I will pull it off Appslib.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] mech1:
Hello,

could any user answer my question please?

I spended too many time (and money) for searching usable keyboard for my Dell Streak 5. Integrated Swype is unbeatable with the editing layout, but it's black only and really slow.

I'm testing Thumb Keyboard Lite and want to ask if full version have:

- posibility of bigger letters in keys (they are really tiny, almost unreable for me)

- the cursor keys for Standart Layer in landscape and portrait (Dell 5 layout seems to have tiny keys for my big thums)

- Home and End keys in some layout

- the edit keyeboard (as second or long press for example - select, select all, copy, paste, cut as minimum)

Even if I do not using prediction and autocorrection features, I like the concept of long press cecond features like smilies, keypad and cursor keys (with Home, End and long press Editing) on one keyobard :-)

Thank you

mech1
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] appelflap:
Hi,

The letters in the full version are bigger. Home and end keys will be added, along with the text editing keys like copy etc will certainly be added somewhere in the evolution of this keyboard.

Current full version does have cursor keys in the (portrait) standard layout. See pics on the market.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] mech1:
Thank you for answer!

I did see pictures and to be honest, it seems to me that the letters are still tiny. Moreover can't find pictures wit cursor keys in landscape Standart.

I would prefer to have possibility to bring for each landscape layout the editing row - cursor keys, home, end and on long press select, select all, copy, paste, cut.

...or ...

Something like THIS (see atached please) but with smaller space in the middle (so bigger letters keys) and not with numbers but with cursor+editing tools.

But anyway great job!

At that time I'm staying with Swype, which best suite my Streak. It's dark, slow and unnecessarily big ... but best for working with text in Landscape.

Public Beta

A beta version of a whole new rewrite of Thumb Keyboard is posted at thumb4beta.com. The beta contains a lot of exciting new features like word prediction based on previous written words, a shortcut editor, true multi-touch and much much more!

The beta only supports 10 inch tablets. Support for all other screensizes, like the market version will be added soon.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] gatherman:
Downloaded the beta and i have to say i have yet to buy 1 app (I am a cheap well you know) but this may just be my first android app purchase.

I do have one question however. How do you change the layout to look like the picture on the blog?

Mine looks like the attached which well is a pain.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] appelflap:
Forgot to set a switch for non honeycomb tablets.... A fix will be up today. (Beta 2)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] gatherman:
Thanks for the quick response.

New beta installed but i am still missing the spacebar and unable to change the type of keyboard (looks the same) I will say now the sound works which it didn't before.

For those of you trying to access this assume keyboard the actual site is thumb4beta.blogspot.com

Amazing Keyboard (Love it)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] baxy:
Could I make a request to change the shape or color of backspace or enter key in landscape mode so that they are more easily differentiated...I often find I press one when I meant to press the other. Otherwise though this keyboard is excellent.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] blakeboro:
Looks Good but.............

I'm just trying the demo version just now, and I can't see any dictionary options, word suggestion.

Am I doing something wrong?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] NisseDILLIGAF:
Hi...

Great keyboard!

I use it on my 7" ZTE Light...

The only thing I'm missing is swedish layout on the '7" Layout'...

I'm using the beta ... but if there's swedish layout then I'll get the paid version!

Will there be swedish layout?

One more thing... The swedish, danish and Norwegian letters are the same... but they shouldn't be... we use different letters (swedish special characters are åäö)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jknut:
The beta expired today on my Archos 70, so I bought it on the Market.

The newest beta installed okay.

I'm trying this app in these days, it's very good but maybe not fast as gingerbread keyboard
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ktadumdum:
Hello. And thank you for this app. I really like it quite a lot.

I use the phone: split-compact layout and I don't use microphone.

Here are some things that I would like to see (if you want to):

-I would like to see this symbol: "-" (without "") instead of having twice the "," symbol. I have a "," on the left side of "space" and another one on the left side of letter "g". I am from Romania and here we use quite a lot the "-", and we don't use the " ' ". And anyway why have you put the same symbol on two different places.

- and another thing that would be really great (but maybe more difficult to make) would be if you would let us choose what those six buttons from the top right corner would show. I know that I can do this with some buttons on the top of the keyboard, but I use your keyboard on a phone not on a tablet and it would be too big. And anybody uses some symbols often then other. So this feature would be really great.

Thank you very much. And hope you will like my proposals.

I've become dependent on this keyboard but the latest update doesn't work on my Dell Streak, running DJ Steves 1.9.0 custom ROM based off 2.2.2.

The Thumb keyboard option is there under settings but doesn't do anything.

Is there anyway to downgrade to the previous version?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] grukko:
hi appelflap. been using thumb keyboard for two weeks now. really a revolutionary soft keyboard. i was surprised to see apple adopting some of the features in the upcoming ios5 with the split portrait view keyboard.

my main issue right now is that on my galaxy tab, i use the 7" layouts. it seems both have the period '.' mapped too wide. it overlaps the right side of the space key so i end up adding a bunch of periods in my sentences where spaces should be.

can you take a look into this? thanks!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] damthman:
Hey Appelflap, i had been using your thumbkeyboard on the nookcolor 1.1.0 rooted. i have updated to 1.2.0 rooted and when i try to install it from the market it says that my device is not compatible with thumbkeyboard. are you going to include the nook color so that we can download it from the marketplace? I could potentially edit the build.prop to get the ability to install it, but was hoping i wouldnt have to go that route. if i do its cool but wanted to check first. thanks again for a great app.

Amazon App store v Android market?

Hi

I'm looking at purchasing Thumb Keyboard and I note its on sale both through Amazon and directly from Android.

However I note the price discrepancy. Also the one in Amazon is listed at version 4.1, while the one on the Android market is listed as version 4.1.2.

Is this intentional (i.e. sell it cheaper on Amazon, but its not the latest version?)

Thanks

"marktplaats" issue

Hello,

I'm using the payed version on my Dell Streak since starters. And it's one of the best euro's spent on Android software. But since the latest update (4.1.2) i'm having trouble filling in search words on marktplaats.nl. after each character i type, the keyboard disapears. I think it has something to do with the autocomplete option of the site. But it does not happen on sites like Google.

When typing this message, i also noticed that when the option to use the spacebar for autocomplete is enabled, the prediction is entered when typing a comma.

Best regards and keep up the good work.

Wilco
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] appelflap:
The funny thing is that Microsoft also has incorporated it in their new Tablet OS. Also with the message "look, what we've come up with in our lab" LoL. Also saw a prototype of a dell tablet with a hardware thumb keyboard, and just read about a LG phone with a split thumb keyboard. Well, all developed here, right at the center of the mobile world, with some great feedback of XDA members.

I will look at the calibration issue on the Galaxy Tab 7 asap.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] appelflap:
The problem with the Nook seems to be that it is excluded because it has no microphone "on board". Unfortunately I see no way to include the nook manually. There isn't an option for the nook color because of this.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] appelflap:
No, it's not intential. In general I post updates on Amazon a little later, because I first want to weed out some bugs that are reported by Android Market users. The Android Market allows me to upload a patch immediately while for the app store every update needs to go through a review process.

Problem this time is that I forgot to submit the 4.1.2 update and because I'm "out of office" the submission is delayed. Should be live in about a week.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] appelflap:
Hi Wilco,

Have you tried a reboot yet? In some very rare cases the keyboard needs a device reboot in order to function properly.

Nevertheless I will look if I can reproduce the issue on a 2.2 Streak.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] fleurdelisxliv:
Love this app!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] stolenmoment:
I'm using this on my NC, but I'm running CM7 from the uSD, not rooted stock. CM7 advertises itself as very capable...

I'm new to Android, especially at this level, but can't you mark the app as "Uses" as opposed to "Requires" the mic?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] appelflap:
Still have to find a work around for this. It is build into the tight integration between apps and the market. The moment I build in voice input support, the market will detect this and will filter out all devices that doesn't have the requirements for voice input. The market does see this as a hard constrain, whereas for some other (soft) constraints it allows some relaxation.

Right now the only way seems to be to alter the build.prop.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] fntms:
Hi there, great looking keyboard so I bought it for my Nook Color CM7, but can't install. Apparently I can modify the build.prop to make it work?

Can you be more explicit please?

Thanks!

Hi,

This is a great keyboard! Thanks for your efforts. I've been using this with my Transformer for weeks.

One question though...

Is it possible to assign a text string to a shortcut on the tool bar?

My email address is 29 characters long, it would be great to be able to use one of the new hotkeys on the tool bar as a way of auto typing this, but I can't see if its possible. If its not, any chance this can be added?

Cheers,

John
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] appelflap:
Hi John,

The keyboard already has a function for text shortcuts. Just use the key with the pin icon. This will trigger a list with buttons to which you can assign a label (for the button) and some text (which could be anything, you can even enter returns and create a signature, standard mail replies etc)

The key with the pin icon is on the main keyboard on the 10" and 7" landscape layouts. On all other layouts it's on the popup that is triggered by long pressing the microphone key.

If you have defined some text shortcuts this way, you can also assign them to keys on the toolbar. The moment there are text shortcuts a new submenu ("text shortcuts") will be added to the list that will popup when you want to edit a key binding.

A help file for the keyboard will be added this or the next week.

Hello!

I've been using this keyboard for quite a long while now, and I just wanted to say thanks for all the hard work you've done on it! :D It is my number one keyboard on the phone, though I do use swype when I only have one hand available :]

I looked through the previous pages and didn't see this anywhere--and I might have missed it--but it seems that when going from the Letters->Numbers/Characters screen, the size of the keyboard changes a bit and it gets just a tad taller, causing a bit of a "jiggle" on the screen.

When typing a combination of letters/numbers/characters a lot, this tends to make the screen or the words seem to bounce up and down quite a bit.

This happened on both my phones: HTC Thunderbolt/Droid Incredible

Thanks again for the great keyboard!

I installed this Thumb keyboard to my SGS2 with KF4 firmware.

I noticed that there is a lag after 1st letter is pressed. Lag takes about 0,5-1 s time and after that there is no lag.

So this happend only after wake phone and open the keyboard. After start typing - lag after the first letter - then becomes all smooth again for the rest of the typing.

Bug:

In polish language, when you write "L" on keyboard it should suggest words with letter "Ł". Same with "l" on "ł" suggestions.

It works fine for other national letteres ("a" suggests also words with "ą", "o" with "ó", "e" with "ę", etc.)

Every user in Poland needs this to be repaired soon.

Best keyboard I've ever had! There is a little bug however; if you click on the correction suggestions of a previous written word, it won't replace the word but add it at the cursor position . Eg. You write "hello my love " and then click on "my" to replace it with MySpace, it will write "hello myMySpace love " (if the cursor was at the end of the word)

Hi!

I would like to thank you for making this awesome keyboard:) just checked on it at the market, and it was on a sale, so I bought it:)

It's the best one i think. I would like to ask though, that, cause I'm Hungarian, would you plan to do a Hungarian layout maybe?:-)

The upcoming feature you just posted is really nice, it would be awesome to be able to pick witch special characters should popup if you longpress a button, would make my life much easier :-)

Thanks again and have a nice day:-)
