I figured some of you may be hankering to switch from haykuro's ADP1.5Hr3 to jesusfreke's JFv1.50 ADP1.5, but miss HTC's perfectly working Chinese Input on haykuro's ADP build. Simply installing HTC_CIME.apk gives issues when changing the Chinese input methods to anything other than Handwriting, such as PinYin. This is because you need the dependent libraries in addition to HTC_CIME.apk!
Here's how to do it:
1. Download HTC_CIME.apk and the dependent libraries at http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=fd121d39fa751465c2b435915e8821d7e04e75f6e8ebb871
2. Extract to a folder somewhere
3. Run the following adb code in a command window opened at the directory where the files were extracted:
Code:
adb remount
adb push lib/libcimet9.so /system/lib/libcimet9.so
adb push lib/libimezi.so /system/lib/libimezi.so
adb push lib/libpphwr.so /system/lib/libpphwr.so
adb push lib/zi/Zi8DatPYP_CN.z8d /system/lib/zi/Zi8DatPYP_CN.z8d
adb push lib/zi/Zi8DatPYS_CN.z8d /system/lib/zi/Zi8DatPYS_CN.z8d
adb push lib/zi/Zi8DatZHA_CN.z8d /system/lib/zi/Zi8DatZHA_CN.z8d
adb push lib/zi/Zi8DatZHA_HK.z8d /system/lib/zi/Zi8DatZHA_HK.z8d
adb push lib/zi/Zi8DatZHA_TW.z8d /system/lib/zi/Zi8DatZHA_TW.z8d
adb push lib/zi/Zi8DatZYP_TW.z8d /system/lib/zi/Zi8DatZYP_TW.z8d
adb push lib/zi/Zi8DatZYS_TW.z8d /system/lib/zi/Zi8DatZYS_TW.z8d
adb install HTC_CIME.apk
4. Go to Settings > Locale & text > Check 'TouchInput Chinese'
5. ???
6. PROFIT!!!
Awesome tip. Thanks for sharing.
God，there are so many files need to add into the system area...
I have not try the Google input method yet.. Is it ok to install without any modification?
thanks will try this when i get home.
Would you by any chance know how to get the HTC TouchInput working? (The non-Chinese one). When I try to install the apk for it onto 1.5, it forcecloses every 10 seconds.
Awesome one. Your help is much appreciated.

Nope, I have never tried any build with that, sorry.
Oh BTW there is one thing I've notice with the HTC-CIME.apk in JF1.5.
If I call out the handwriting interface in horizontal layout, the TouchInput will crash.
Does any buddy meet this problem too? I'm now trying very hard not to write Chinese in horizontal layout now.

Just tried it - facing the same issue. I didn't notice this before since I was using PinYin input all the time.
Does this problem occur on haykuro's ADP1.5Hr3?
lol just load up HTC_CIME.apk via app installer and you have chinese touch input, no need for all those steps...

Yeah, I've been trying to do this too, but IDK what's wrong...
the normal key.apk forcecloses, but the chinese touchinput works (and it has everything key.apk has), so I'm just using the english part of the chinese one
When I press the up-right arrow in the handwriting input screen, it force-closed and will force-close everytime until I uninstalled it. Anyone experienced the same?
if you want to use it just for typing, just load htc_CIME.apk thats what i did, typing is flawless even in landscape, im not Chinese so i don't draw in, tho if they had an english version thatd be awesome.
Thank you!!!!!!

I have no problems opening and using handwriting layout in horizontal. I am running JF ADP1.5 with CIME+libraries from Haykuro 1.5r3. I actually diffed the system folders of JF1.5 and Hr3 myself before I discovered this thread (who needs search when you can just reinvent the wheel, right?) Unlike the OP, I actually also had some additional z8d files in /system/lib. They are not identical to the ones in /system/lib/zi , so they might be important. Here are the steps I carried out (for windows):
Code:
adb push \lib\libimezi.so /system/lib/libimezi.so
adb push \lib\libpphwr.so /system/lib/libpphwr.so
adb push \lib\Zi8DatPYP_CN.z8d /system/lib/Zi8DatPYP_CN.z8d
adb push \lib\Zi8DatPYS_CN.z8d /system/lib/Zi8DatPYS_CN.z8d
adb push \lib\Zi8DatZHA_CN.z8d /system/lib/Zi8DatZHA_CN.z8d
adb push \lib\Zi8DatZHA_HK.z8d /system/lib/Zi8DatZHA_HK.z8d
adb push \lib\Zi8DatZHA_TW.z8d /system/lib/Zi8DatZHA_TW.z8d

adb push \lib\Zi8DatZYS_TW.z8d /system/lib/Zi8DatZYS_TW.z8d
adb push \lib\zi\Zi8DatPYP_CN.z8d /system/lib/zi/Zi8DatPYP_CN.z8d
adb push \lib\zi\Zi8DatPYS_CN.z8d /system/lib/zi/Zi8DatPYS_CN.z8d

I created a package incorporating all the required files in an update.zip form. New thread here.

(delete this post)
intalling the HTC_CIME.apk doesnt work for JF 1.5 ADP it just overrwrites another app i have no clue why
anyone else get this?
so, it seems as if a lot of people want to get the stock Android keyboard onto sense builds, because they type better, keys larger, word prediction less intrusive, etc.
so, i got it to work, but i don't believe that the voice search for it works.
i attached a LatinIME.apk to the thread, download it and save it to wherever is convenient. I saved it to my desktop.
1. adb push the LatinIME.apk to /system/app
Code:
adb remount
adb install <where you put your LatinIME.apk>
2. go to Settings> Keyboard and Language and make sure Android Keyboard shows up. There's going to be two different Android Keyboards, nevermind that.
3. find any app or place that has a text input box, like chompSMS or your texting app. open up a thread or start a new message
4. tap and HOLD the empty text box, and select Text Input. there should be three choices: Touch Input, Android Keyboard, and Android Keyboard.
5. it could be different for you, but if you select the first Android Keyboard, you'll encounter a force close. If you chose the second Android Keyboard, it should work.
BASICALLY, pick either of the Android Keyboard choices; one will not force close.
now, you can use the Android keyboard on 2.1!
EDIT: there might be only one Android Keyboard, i had two, but your results may vary. Either way, it should work
EDIT2: if the adb install method returns an unexpected error or a failure, try doing an adb push.
Code:
adb remount
adb push <path of LatinIME.apk> /system/app
that's fail for me... I only have on android keyboard show up, and it just FC's.
Running fresh 2.1b
make sure you downloaded the file i attached.. it says 0 views.
well, i've downloaded it twice and it still says 0 views lol
justinisyoung said:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
shows 10 views now....
reported that this works better if you do an install instead of just pushing...
so
Code:
adb install LatinIME.apk
I am using the Eris Leak (Villian3.3) on Hero and on installing I get the following:
Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_UPDATE_INCOMPATIBLE]
Pushing also fails with a'No space left on device error'. I tried some other LatianIME.apk's that I got out of other 2.1 Roms and had the same troubles.
Is there anything I am missing or could try? I really like the android keyboard over the HTC one!
EDIT: If I remove the HTC keyboard and push the attached I end up with no keyboard at all as the apk is not compatible (I'm guessing). I even tried to using a LatinIME from an 2.1 asop Rom thinking it should work! Nope...
did adb install on 2.0b, said successful installed and nothing show up in touch input after reboot.
Worked great!
Thanks!
Off topic
Do you know the name of the 2.1 lockscreen apk? I was going to rip it from the DarchDroid release but I can't find it.
This doesnt work on 2.0b2. Damn, says "not installed"
update
Here's the link for the source code for LatinIME
If anyone want's to play around with it, maybe we can get it to work.
http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/packages/inputmethods/LatinIME.git;a=tree;hb=HEAD
We're missing some resources that are only available in the open source eclair builds.
+1 for this thread. I followed the adb instructions above and successfully installed the stock keyboard to the fresh 2.0b rom the other day but for whatever reason, doing the same thing to damage's new rom gives me the "install unsucessful/failure dialog mentioned above as well. I'd appreciate any help or suggestions.
if you get an install unsuccessful, try an adb push.
instead of adb install <path of LatinIME.apk>, try this
Code:
adb remount
adb push <path of LatinIME.apk> /system/app
at first it was discovered that the install method would work better, but using adb push worked fine for me. test it out anyone?

Same here using DamageControl. I really want this keyboard.
No luck on Damagecontrol Rom,
I've now tried both pushing and installing following the instructions above on the most recent Damagecontrol v.9999999 and have had no luck with either. I get the same [INSTALL_FAILED_UPDATE_INCOMPATIBLE] when I try to install and when I push, it shows the file as having been transfered but it doesn't show up when I long press or in my language & keyboard settings. Anyone have any other suggestions? Any and all help is appreciated.
I tried to install this on a HTC Hero with Villain 3.4 (sense 2.1) and it does not work, the apk is there, but it does not show up.
I've also tried the VoiceSearchWithKeyboard.apk (should be nexux one keyboard with voice control), this shows up in the options, but it does not show up in input method, maybe someone has more luck?
I got the android stock keyboard to work.found the zip file in a thread.just gotta flash it n done.ill look for it n post the link

Completely excellent! Works fine on Villian3.4. Would prefer the keyboard without the voice search, so I can type a comma without two keypresses... Still beggars can't be choosers!
Thanks very much!
EDIT: Turning voice search off is only an option change away. Perfect! Thanks again.
I know there are 3(or more) existing swype threads. I KNOW THIS. I just threw my swype kb file folder from black glass into the full version swype for those that wanted a BlackGlass swype that didnt know how to do it themselves. Get it HERE. If any one wants a new color lemme know and ill put it up when i get a chance, so we have more colors to choose from.
If you cant get it make sure you hav3 done the following:
for those who are getting expired messages try removing all traces of Swype:
1. In terminal,
Code:
rm /data/app/com.swype.android.inputmethod.apk
2. In terminal,
Code:
rm -r /data/data/com.swype.android.inputmethod
3. Clear your dalvik-cache
I've not gotten an expiration yet, but hopefully this works for you

I love Swype, but have no idea what you're talking about lol. Can I get a screen shot?
wont install for me through a file manager, adb push, or adb install
Yeah this will not install no go.

its always worked for me. Im currently using this exact apk in my rom. Not sure what the problem could be. You can always take the libs from it and throw them in your roms lib folder (using root explorer on an already installed system), thats how i make it work out of the box in my mods. It should just install, i normally use andro or root exp to install apps that werent included in the rom. Root commander works great too. I dont use adb for apk installation.
I tried pushing it first then used Astro to install

Maybe I got a bad download I will try again downloading it and using Root Explorer to install.

right on. if not pm n ill get it going for you. i have a few diff. copies,but this is the one im currently using. I had to mess with it some to get it to work with a new rom install(its a choice from get go) so i learned a little about installing it
Not working for me either... used Linda and Estrongs file explorers... neither worked.
Do you need a previous version of Swype installed for it to work?
Won't install for me either
-------------------------------------
Sent via the XDA Tapatalk App
The way it worked for me, I had to adb remove swype first, then download to SD and then use astro to install
Yeah im going to guess if you had swype previously installed this one probably wont install for you.
the **** doesnt install anyway i tried, i did have it previously, what folder do i adb pull from?
I used Advanced task manager to uninstall my previous version, then Estrongs File Explorer to install this one, works fine for me. Thanks!

system/app...you will probably need to list the files to see exactly what its named to remove.
adb remount
adb shell
cd system/app
ls
rm whateveritsnamed.apk
This is a developer site right? Well this is just an app install. I put it up to help ppl out not piss them off. Ive listed the best way to do it and it works FLAWLESSLY. Please do the following or listen to my previous instructions before threadbombing...This is not hard, so please calm down and try not to get upset. FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY
INSTRUCTIONS
1)REMOVE ANY EXISTING SWYPE YOU MAY ALREADY HAVE
2)MAKE SURE ITS ACTUALLY GONE(it can be pesky to remove)
3)DOWNLOAD THE APK TO SD
4)USE ANDROZIP FILE EXPLORER TO INSTALL THE FILE(i think astro works too)
5)ENABLE YOUR SWYPE OPTION FROM settings/language keyboards
6)LONG PRESS ON A TEXT ENTRY FIELD
7)TAP INPUT METHOD
8)CHOOSE SWYPE TO USE IT
And lastly if this does not work for you and you still really want swype i have a rom i just put up yesturday that has swype,android kb, and htc kb included and you just select whichever you want to use(no installing anything). Good luck AND MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU(im not a star wars freak, just seemed like the right thing to say)
Thanks, was missing my black kb, any chance we could get the micro black version? Mine quit on me yesterday morning
UPDATE: It seems that this only works on the 2.2 roms that are de-odexed... It doesn't work on the plain one that first hit. It is confirmed to work in the following roms:
Sky Raider 2.2 You can just use his flash installer app on the SD card
Sky Raider 2.1
Sky Raider 2.0
Sky Raider 1.9b
Desensitize Sky Raider 2.2 by jitajt
Not sure how many of you follow the other areas of the site or not... anyways, the guys over on the nexus one area have been enjoying Hulu on their Froyo roms for a while now. I've only seen a couple HTC Inc folks in the original thread so maybe people just don't know about it...
Big thanks goes out to rcxquake as he's the one that created the modified version of flash.
Original instructions for Nexus one are here
Modified Directions (i'll expand these out after I do it again tomorrow):
1) (this step is not needed on Skyraider 2.2 as the author has already removed the installer file for you, he has also included the correct version of flash on the SD card) remove flash from your install... most likely it is in the /system/app folder, I hadn't run any flash sites yet so I simply renamed the install_flash_player.apk to install_flash_player.apkb Here's a quick set of instructions for you:
1) Connect phone and enable debuging mode.
2) open a command prompt and go into your sdk/tools folder. run "adb reboot recovery"
3) in the cmd prompt type in "adb shell"
4) On the phone once its loaded up recovery in to partitions menu and mount /system
5) in the adb shell type in "cd /system/app"
5) to rename the flash installer type in "mv install_flash_player.apk install_flash_player.apkb"
7) in ADB tell it "exit"
8) on the phone unmount system and data (not sure if this is necessary or not)Exit out of recovery and verify you don't have flash installed anymore under settings \ applications \ Manage Applications \ All applications.
2) Download the fixed flash version via rcxquake's thread to your pc and move it to your sd card(direct link to file)
3) Install the downloaded APK file via your favorite file browser (astro for example)
4) If you want to look at the full version of the website, you'll need to enable a special mode in the browser, here's the directions care of the original thread:
1. In the search/address bar of the android browser type "about:debug" without the double quotes.
2. Press Menu
3. Tap More>Settings
4. Go to UAString and change it to desktop.5) If you want to access the site without setting up the debug mode listed above, Adam B was awesome enough to utilize the Hulu widget page to create a premodded app that you can simply click and watch. Here's his original post and here's a direct link to his APK.
SIDE NOTE If you run his Hulu.apk app, your lock screen will not come up after using it... to remedy this you have to kill it with a task killer... I have emailed him to see if this is something that could be remedied.
Anyways, I hope this helps some others get this going...
I tried this, and read through all of the Nexus One thread, and I still get "Hulu requires Flash Player 10.0.22 or higher. Please download and install the latest version of Flash Player before continuing".
Tried it in recovery (adb install), Astro, and AppInstaller. It shows up as installed in Application Management but doesn't load on any website. The only thing that there was to install (that I could find) was "install_flash_player.apk" in /system/app/.
Hulu and 2.2, its Christmas in July!
Having to manually kill the app sucks but it's hulu on my Droid!
Only other issue really is the border in fullscreen mode.
Btw the app works great, if you can't get it to work try a reboot.

Do you need the app? It sounded like about:debug should cover it, but it doesn't really answer why other pages don't load Flash.

Yea thats the file you need to rename "mv install_flash_player.apk install_flash_player.apkb" then your all good.
so far i've only tested on the sky raider one... at the end of the day yesterday we tried the same steps on the regular 2.2 rom on an additional inc someone had at the office (the original full leak) and were unsuccessful. I'm going to flash my phone over to regular as I have an issue with sky raider and syncing, I'll see what I can come up with on getting to work on that one as well.
Works!
Works great, I followed the instructions and was watching hulu in minutes.

I tried applying adrynalyne's market fix thinking maybe it just needed to think it was on a nexus... no go.
So, what else is changed in the modded roms?

Well, I'm able to get it working but the video quality is extremely choppy, even over wifi. Any idea how to fix this?

Asteroid, how did you get it working on the 8/1 leak? Did you simply remove install_flash_player.apk and install the modded flash player? I attempted to do so, and got the blue plugin icon on flash content.
I actually had a flash player installation backed up in Titanium that I had restored. I uninstalled that, just using regular old Uninstaller, and when I checked /system/app in root explorer, I didn't see any evidence of a flash install.
Then installed the modified version from Astro, made the "about:debug" changes mentioned, and we're up and running.
I'm not sure why, but maybe if you install the standard flash beta, uninstall it, then install the modified version that will work?
Got this working on a recent nightly for cm6 (dont see why it wouldnt work on any others too) also, it will most likely work on any deodexed rom (odexed im not sure) -- Let me know what does/doesnt work and ill try and do something or point you in the right direction.
this should also work with other phones (so far just hdpi phones)
EDIT: punk.kaos got it working on all phones! good work! thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=764021

THIS HAS KNOWN ISSUES CAUSING THE HARDWARE KEYBOARD TO DO WEIRD STUFF ON THE DROID 1!!!!
something with the alt key not working correctly, i do not have a moto droid, so thats making it very tough to troubleshoot anything. anyone who does and wants to test some things, pm me, probably have some time this weekend to look at it
Bugless Beast 4 (moto droid)
Ultimate Droid Extreme Froyo 6.00 (moto droid?)
CM6 (nexus 1)
modaco r21 (nexus 1)
DeFrost 2.6a (desire)
BUGS:
- & on one of the keys, more of an annoyance than anything, will fix eventually fixed!
- crap, another & error, when holding the . key...fix coming eventually... fixed!
- < symbol fixed! <-- thanks for the help enragedpaza
- vibrates too lightly fixed! <-- thanks for the help enragedpaza
- others?
Voice input works too!
Back up your stock keyboard first:
Code:
adb shell cp /system/app/LatinIME.apk /system/app/LatinIME.apk.bak
adb shell cp /system/lib/libjni_latinime.so /system/lib/libjni_latinime.so.bak
FLASH (EASY) METHOD:
flash this from your recovery or from rom manager:
http://www.mediafire.com/?9yawjq9weakbl9y
Geo411m has made a black colored one. details here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7684399&postcount=211
install the same as the easy way, otherwise download it and pull the apk out of it and install it with the manual method
ENJOY!
MANUAL (OLD) METHOD:
get both of these files:
apk:
fixed4: http://www.mediafire.com/?7q0406gqazq8rer
(harder vibrate, < symbol fix)
if you had an older version, be sure to switch to a different keyboard, then remove the old LatinIME.apk before pushing the new one over, otherwise you will get fc's like crazy!
lib:
(you may not need this, but it shouldnt hurt anything (backup instructions below) and if the keyboard doesnt work, then definitely try pushing it)
http://www.mediafire.com/?awy84cz5t8ngx49
some have reported that for some reason or another this file downloads as a .txt (although it comes as a .so for me all the time) make sure you rename it, if need be, to libjni_latinime.so before going any further
you will need adb for this method (others have done it without a computer)
youll either want to be in recovery, with /system mounted, or remount it read-only while the phone is up (need s-off for this, thanks unrevoked!)
then push the two downloaded files to your phone: (in some roms it is called GoogleLatinIme.apk, so use that instead of LatinIME.apk if thats how your rom is)
Code:
adb push d2keyboard-signed-fixed4.apk /system/app/LatinIME.apk
adb push libjni_latinime.so /system/lib/libjni_latinime.so
choose your input method like always, and enjoy the multi-touch keyboard on froyo
ok, the screenshots really dont mean much, anyone can use gimp, but w/e thought id put them up there anyway
thanks to LegionTHEFecalExcretion for the system dump!
if you like what i do and feel compelled to donate something to me, do so here
Great thanks

Works on BB v.4 for the Droid and this is sick!! Thanks so much.
Can you just install the app like you normally would?
And what's the second file for?
Thanks.

You were right, install the app but it kept force closing. Thanks. I'm using Skyraider 2.2
I can't tell you how excited I was when I pushed this on my phone, not because of how it is a much better keyboard then the stock one. I was excited because I was able to push this system without having to be in recovery. UnrEVOked is amazing!
BTW.. I am having no issues with this so far. Excellent keyboard, good port!

i cant tell you how excited i was when the keyboard finally popped up on my screen!
thanks for the feedback
i'm running sapphire 1.0 and i was able to install with Root explorer.
Works on skyraider 2.2 - no pc required. I did have to copy over the lib file with root explorer. Btw I am typing on this keyboard now and it is amazing at correcting mistakes!

I can't push the .so file to my phone, the keyboard fc's on me when I try to select it in the input method section, so I thought i would try pushing the lib, but it keeps saying the directory doesn't exist.
this is exactly what i type
adb push libjni_latinime.so /system/lib/libjni_latinime.so
cannot stat: 'libjni_latinime.so' no such file or directory
It downloaded for me as a. Txt extension. I had to change it to .so - check to see if that happened to you
