I'm not 100% sure this is it since I don't have my Nexus One yet so I need someone willing to test.
I found it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0dFh9RKsN6w&feature=player_embedded
This is the same one that's pixelated on the Nexus One. Also, doesn't stretch the full screen in landscape mode.
It is still the pixelated version. That wouldn't even bother me that much if the correction bar on the top fit on the screen and wasn't horribly warped.
Damn sorry then. The one in the video looks good though.
do you need to be rooted for this? Because I tried it using an appinstaller. It shows up in the clicker, but when I create new messages, it reverts back to the stock google keyboard.
You have to go into the settings and enable it, then when you're in a message box click the box and hold, then select "input method". You can alternate between the 2.
haha ya i forgot to do the "hold" part in the message box. thanks!
pixelated...but at least i don't have to switch back n forth for numbers and punctuations. can't wait for the non-pixelated version w/ microphone key =)

We'll need a high-res 2.1 SenseUI device to come out - probably need to wait for a Bravo leak.
Yep, works fine on N1 running MCR1.1 but pixelated. Will have to live with that for a while as it still beats the hell out of the standard Android keyboard...
Is the file linked from youtube the same as this file?

So I emailed HTC to find out if they will update the htc_ime.apk so that it will work on the nexus or look properly I should say. I am currently waiting for a response... let you guys know when I get a reply. I will post it.

Ha good luck with that. They won't update it until they release a phone with the Hi-Res Sense UI.
Most likely we'll have to wait until a bravo dump is leaked or another sense UI device w/ a hi res screen's dump is leaked.
I'm running HTC_IME on the N1.... its great to have it back, only complaint is the lack of the dedicated 'microphone' key thats in the default keyboard... so AFAIK once you install HTC_IME you can NOT dictate text messages and the like
Does anyone know how to edit the dictionary for htc ime?
I don't know about editing words but you can erase it by going into your settings > applications > keyboard > clear data.
I installed this and it works great but my only issue-request would be to add more languages. The option is there, when you go to settings from inside the keyboard, but unfortunately, only english is available.
In the past, people have made language packs...could someone do on for this? pleeeeeeeease?
Thanks,
Lou
I used to change com.htc.android.htcime_preferences.xml file to enable dual language on my htc ime. I was wondering if this can be changed in the apk before installing. I dont want to root my nexus.
Thanks
Anyone have any idea what that task killer widget is he uses in the video? Basically its sitting on the homescreen and kills the tasks with one click, no need to open an app...

Newest Version: Believed to be the same version on newer T-Mobile MyTouch 3Gs
Older Version: (uninstall previous version first)
</b>
<font face="verdana">
Oldest Version: Said to work on the Eris
Just installed it and it works on my Hero
1. Download swype here. (if for some reason it downloads as .zip, just change the file extension to .apk)
2. Transfer to your Eris via USB
3. Settings -> Application settings -> Check Unknown sources (You all prob have done this before but my n00b friends had not so I thought I would mention it anyways)
4. Use a file manager program such as Astro File Manager and go to the location you stored the .apk
5. Install
6. After install go to Settings -> Locale & Text -> Check Swype
7. Open any email/text client and hold down the text box and you will get a popup asking what you want for input. Select Swype. You only have to do this once and it will do it for all your programs.
8. Disable Audio Warnings as it seems to give errors as well located at Phone settings -> Locale & text -> Swype
<b>I recommend reading the tutorial. Helped me. This is very sick. I now love one handed emailing and texting as its so simple.
alternative link:
*known bugs*
1) If you do not check "Disable Audio Warnings" in the Locale & Test > Swype Settings you will get repeated force closes.
2) Installing seems to disable the ability to click and hold to delete icons on the homescreen, widgets work fine.
3) There is no option to tap on a word to edit it while in Portrait mode, reports that landscape mode works fine.
[highlight]Mod Edit: No Swype Links Allowed[/highlight]
holy balls i might need to include this in my rom.
Incredile simply put! Thanks ALOT!!!!
i think my mind has just been blown away...
if you get force closes, disable the sounds in the settings... i did until i turned them off
also, doesn't seem like you can select and edit words like it says in the tutorial
thx! It works awesome! except, you can't just hide it when you want to I noticed, like the normal HTC keyboard.

Just saw the Spanish dictionary in there so great.
Man, I was sceptical about swype when I first heard about it, but it is freakin wicked!
I wasn't too sure about this either, but it's growing on me! I'll have to run it through it's paces over the next few days and see how well it works for me. So far so good.
I suggest going through the entire tutorial.
Also, those not sure how to get it running as your default text input, just tap and hold onto a text input place to select the new default, you can always disable swipe at any time by doing the same thing. It doesn't replace anything that I can see, just another app to use.
Thanks for sharing OP!
this just made text input infinitely easier on this phone.
Wow love this so far thanks for the find.
Works great but I get FC when i hold down the backspace button to delete words. Works great if i just tap it but holding it down will always FC
EDIT: Turning off sounds fixed the FC
i used to HATE text input, but now i'm texing everyone i know! my grandmother! my ex-girlfriend! my sister's husband!
its awesome. if your skeptical just try it. (only takes a second to install) its freakin awesome.

There is a new app today in the market for *rooted* phones only, called Font Size.
It is still in beta and you'll need to have a good backup first in case of problems. I am running a rooted Nexus one and although it rebooted twice in a row after installation, it now works perfectly.
If you are running a rom with spares parts you can change it with that.

sms text size works pretty good, its free and in the market
Or if your rooted and feel comfortable changing things. You can go into the build file ( which is a text file you can view through ES File Explorer and give the App super user abilities ( which you HAVE to change in the settings of the app as when the app boots it's already given those permissions. You need to give it permission to overwrite files ) Go to the System Folder which is located on the phone not the SD Card. Once viewing the build file.. in the middle of the text file you'll see 160 DPI is the default value, just under that are two values ( both stock at 160 ) and you change those. If you go to 180 everything on the phone becomes bigger or 140 and things become smaller ( Apps, text, everything ) then follows the instructions after which is to reboot the phone...all settings will take place.
Just do NOT change anything else in the build file.
font size
How do i get to the build file? is it in an app or in my 4G.

Hi,
Found the build file and changed from 160 DPI to 180 DPI but when I reboot it does not overwrite the change. How do I get the change to stick.

Attach your build.prop here and I'll take a look at it.
You might need to rename it to .txt or put it in a .zip

How are you editing build.prop?
Also your rom must support DPI changes, not all of them do, which rom is this?
Once you change that number it should NOT get overwritten.
Spare parts will change menu font size, but won't stick after your screen rotates. If you have rotation off you should be fine. Otherwise the CM community is trying to get that option in spare parts to work, but it's not cooperating. Editing build.prop is probably the best bet.
ROM??? this is way out of my league. I tried spare parts but was unclear how to increase fonts. it seemed to only increase font in one menu screen.
not sure how to attach build prop.
DPI changes not just the font, but everything, like if your font gets bigger, so do your icons, menus, etc. That does work if you want that result. If you want to change ONLY your system font size and nothing else, you can go read this info, and change it this way:

If you're running CM7 there should be an option for changing contact text size. I've never used it, but I know it's there.
You should also be asking this in their forum btw

Doesn't anybody else think it's pretty bad this option isn't available by default on Android? Not everybody wants to root their phones. Not everybody knows a 3rd party app for this exists (and it doesn't even seem to work globally for all text to begin with).
Definite downside, in my opinion.

Talk to or email google about it. Actually, I believe there's a request for it somewhere on the aosp features page (something like that) you can star the issue and try to get more people to join it. Maybe google will look into it...
At least that's a better option than wishing constantly and not taking action

Use Spare Parts named app from market. It can directly make bigger your all fonts + no root.
Do anybody know of a better mms app other than the stock and handcent. I'm running DC.3.2.3 Rom the problem is that the stock mms compress the picture way to small. Handcent takes too long to send out the pictures as if it donot want to send. Gmail works perfect just cannot sent to a phone number.
Any suggesting
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk
You can always try ChompSMS it's quite popular and very similar to Handcent.
This is the issue that really bugged me, I hated that the stock app couldn't send a file bigger than 14k and didn't like using chomp or handcent. If you are still looking for a more elegant solution, I might have a possible solution. I replaced the mms.apk file in the ROM I was about to flash with the vanilla one (attached) and after booting up it worked perfectly. I like the black background and when I attach a picture it doesn't compress it to crap. I just opened the zip file of the ROM with winrar and deleted the old mms.apk in the sys app folder and dropped the new one in its place. I realize this solution is less than ideal, and there is probably a better way with adb, but I figure soon enough you'll flash an updated ROM anyways.
Try pure messenger, almost like the sense one, almost.

@Nerovingian
Thank you! That was the exact thing I was searching for awhile ago, but people were pointing me towards handcent and chomp (which were overkill for what I wanted). I was looking for white on black background mms app. I don't like the stock because just about everything else in the evo is a dark theme. The mms was obnoxious black on white and was blinding if the lights were out where I was. I hope your app is kosher and will behave itself (if you know what I mean)....
I understand what you mean. If you have any doubt, there is am excellent post in the Android development forum that has all of the vanilla apks. Just search for vanilla topics and you should be golden.
Thanks for the tip
I was always under the impression that the apps compress in order to comply with file size limits per different carriers. Am I mistaken?

what did i do wrong? I'm running fresh 1.0.1 with amon recovery.
@supwidachew
It worked for me. I went where the original was and renamed it to mms.apk.old. Then I went to the other mms.apk and installed it. No copying. It had some message about replacing something and I just said ok. In the settings of the app, white text on black was checked but not working. I unchecked it then got out of menu and killed the app with a task manager. Started app again and went into settings and checked the box then backed out again. I think I might have done this maybe three or four times before it finally took. I haven't tried sending anything yet so I don't know what's different with that yet.

I have same rom as you but clockworkmod recovery. I didn't flash it, I installed it like any other apk downloaded (not from market )
Wrong word choice and misspelling courtesy of swype.
So this is indeed better than the HTC Messaging app? It doesn't compress pictures horribly? and it still works? Does the sense widget with numbered notifications still work? Does the lock screen message preview still work? Does the status bar message preview still work? Thanks.
ahhh, ok. Let me install it and see how that works.
Allow me to elaborate on my process. I replaced the apk in the ROM file using winrar before I flashed the ROM (see picture to see where I replaced the file) using clockwork recovery, so I haven't tried to install it like a normal apk or through any other method. Since it is the vanilla apk it does not do the lock screen notification where sense shows it, although it does show in the notification bar while locked. Additionally, it does not compress the pictures horribly and I have tested sending and receiving, both which worked. I have only tested my method on Baked Snack 9.7, so I apologize if it does not work on your preferred ROM. Perhaps someone more experienced can offer a better method like using adb?

I'll try tomorrow and let you know. Nandroid is my friend.
If the icon you have on the home screen is the one that was dragged from the app drawer, the answer is no. At least in my setup it wasn't and not an option in settings either. There wasn't a mms widget either
Wrong word choice and misspelling courtesy of swype.
I tried sending a 44kb sound file with the vanilla mms app. It refused to push it out. I tried installing handcent and chomp and try each of them and they both failed. I found where the mms app installed itself and deleted it. Then I renamed the old "mms.apk.old" to mms.apk,rebooted, then the file sent okay. Damn, I was kinda liking the other app too. Hmm, I wonder if I can have both the vanilla and the htc messaging apps installed.... I'm gonna try it now.

This does not have numbered notifications on the widget like sense. It has a notification icon in the task bar, it does not do task bar preview like sense. As far as lock screen I dont know.
First of all, because my English is very poor. These words are translated into English by means of translation tools.
Restart your YOTA3,
then press the power and volume up button after the black screen.
Loosen your hand after the fall of the robot.
Press the power up and quick press the volume up button 3 times.
At this point, the RECOVERY menu appears.
The rest of you should know what to do.
After the resetting of the factory.
The first thing to do is to install a "ICEBOX" software without ROOT (he needs you to run a ADB command with PC to activate him as device manager.)
The ADB command is as follows:
adb shell adb shell dpm set-device-owner com.catchingnow.icebox/.receiver.DPMReceiver
With him, you may stop the software you do not want to run automatically, if necessary. Uninstall third party software that can be uninstalled.
Freeze：
com.journeyui.phonemanager
com.zhangyue.coolyota.major
com.zhangyue.coolyota.minor
The second thing is to install a "GO. google. installer. APK". He will help you install Google's basic functions.
The third thing is to install "YOTA.Launcher.APK" (its role is to specify an installed software to do Eink Launcher.

YOTA.Launcher.APK? YES! For me probably most valuable app for the EinkDisplay (EDP) by now!
Why? cause after few tricks you can use it, to launch every app you want on the EDP!
I used it in the following way:
1. use the apk from gor516don´s post to install it (on your own risk! cause no idea where it is from)
-->
the app icon apears, and you can start it from your AMOLED-Display (ADP) (nothing will happen on ADP). Turn and unlock your Y3, push the "o" in the middle or the left button. Than you can decide between mobestlauncher and the yota launcher. You know which one to choose --> list of probably all apps (systemapps included) apears. If You choose one of the app, than you will be able to start it evry time you unlock your EDP.
If you want to change the app to be started on the EDP than just turn Y3 to AD-side and click Yota-Launcher again (you wont see any feedback) but if you unlock EDP you will be able to choos new app to be started on the EDP!
Okay that is allready greate! BUT!
I tried to "bring" some launcher apps on the EDP and one worked, so now i can start every app i want on EDP! = )
i tried:
google now launcher (didn´t work probably because you cant make it a standard launcher)
Y3 original launcher (didn´t work)
than i just random picked Evie-Launcher (feel free to try another Launcher and dont forget to post which one worked!!!) from google play store (you cant make it standard launcher too, but Evie asks wether you want to do it now or later - > if you choose later than it works on EDP = )!
important:
apps, installed after yota-launcher had been installed, dont apear on the List!!! -> you installed new app you want to launch on ed, reinstall yota-launcher
and dont forget : reboot is allways good!
gor516don THANK YOU A LOT!
simple app launcher at F-Droid works.
HI! I need STOK RECOVERY! anyone have, give me please !
launchers on EDP
Is anybody aware of other launchers (except evie and f-droid-simple), which work with YOTA.Launcher.apk?
If one uses *#*#9738#*#* on the dialer to get into mirror mode, the fonts on the EDP are much better.
Does anybody have an idea how to get into mirror mode with a single click?
