HTC keyboard on mytouch - myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development

tried to install it but its giving me permission errors i read somewhere you don't need to be root to install?

Yes you do, you have to have root to be able to replace system files.

Root is not yet possible on the Mytouch.
it is being worked on but for now you must stick to Googles keyboard
and or buy "better keyboard" from the market

Actually you dont have to have root I was able to install it on my Mytouch without any problems. Check out my post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=539818

go to settings - locale and then check the HTC keyboard, as an available keyboard, now you can long press in a message and select it as your input method

nvm. I'm a tool. lol

after trying the htc keyboard out i like how it looks but its so slow at times is it because its not rooted version?
but the word correction on the htc one to me is wayyy better

awesome, its gonna be a long day when my touch comes in the mail.

HTC_IME for Nexus One [Pixelated Version]

http://drop.io/p12auxn#
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

Swiftkey alpha new keyboard for testing and tweaking

Cant seem to get this app to work on a 2.1 rom. part of an alpha tester group. Anyone want to give it a try

Working great for me on 2.1 Darch Legend V.5.
You need to install the .apk, then go into settings >> keyboard >> enable swiftkey
Next you need to go into swiftkey settings and download a language pack.
After all that, long press on a text entry box and select SwiftText.
So far it is pretty great at predicting what I am about to type in 2 letters or so. I love Swype..but I am willing to give this a try for awhile.

I have not had any problems using it on DamageRegaw ROM. I think I downloaded straight to phone from the email link I received and then just installed using ES file explorer.
I hope that helps. Word prediction on this keyboard is interesting.

Look in settings >> language and keyboard >> and then under the sub-heading "Text Settings" there is a selection box next to the name "Swift Key". This is the same menu that you get into the Swift Key settings at (the check box is not within the Swift Key settings).

thats just it there is no box to enable it. nor is there one for the stock android one or the htc keyboard. they are all lined up but no enable. tried to reset after i installed and phone locked up so dont think it will work on dc v2 or maybe its just the damagetrev im running which is a faster version of dc v2
Eh, its better then stock, but once you try swype, its hard to type with anything else. If only swype had the voice thing like stock android, that would be awesome
OMFG!!! that looks awesome. so here's the question, if i want it how hard is it to try and then if i don't like it how hard to get rid of it?

I'm faster with Swype than a physical keyboard. I have installed it for two G1 owners recently after they got a hold of my phone.
No problems with darchlegendv5 I tested by just pushing space and if typed this " up to the business of Parity shall be liable for the use of the individual or entity to which it is a bit of a man they are trying to trace in connection with the word. I am a beautiful person. I am a beautiful person. I am a beautiful person. I am a beautiful person. I am a beautiful person." Exactly what I wanted to type. Crazy smart keyboard, but I think it's pretty nice thus far just a little slow.

for me, flashing in recovery resulted in FC's
pushed LatinIme.apk via adb to /system/app/ and all is well
I installed through recovery after moving the .zip to the main directory on the sdcard. It was already defaulted when i restarted my phone.

For anyone else who gets this error you just need to turn off signature verification. I like the new keyboard, though I thought you could hold shift with one finger and press the number you wish (Like a PC keyboard) but maybe I just picked that up wrong from the youtube vid.
Deleted android keyboard with titanium backup. Boot into recovery and apply zip. Works beautifully.

So is this a patch that needs to be flashed over the original file or is it the entire keyboard and everything? just so i know for future reference since i flash new roms all the time, dont want to be flashing two keyboard files if i dont have to.
Looks like the BlindType technology/code/whatever definitely has not been implemented? At least not yet.
Yes I am running the word prediction fix, but the text input in the BlindType promo video does not even come close to being recognized with this keyboard.
Bummer. Still pumped for the new software though.

if you're using the latest version of ra recovery, you have to disable verification and it will work

Yeah I agree, blindType is clearly not implemented but its still a great improvement. just imagine how amazing this thing will be once its implemented!
In reply to everyone here, if you already flashed the original file, just flash the other one over it as an update. No, it doesn't need to be renamed.

i disabled verification and flashed and got a fc, i deleted the android kb in titatium and all the latinIME.apks in system/app and system/app_store
and reflashed, now i cant even select android kb as an option
Wow, this keyboard is fantastic.
some way to work in predicting other languages, such as
Spanish?
Can we use this on the MT4G ROM that Evil made? Or is it only CM6.1?
Thanks a lot for sharing the fixed version! I just flashed it in Recovery (without uninstalling anything) and it worked like a charm.
My reaction:
Better than the Froyo keyboard by a fair amount, but by no means mindblowing. I bet on a slightly larger screen it will be the bee's knees. I kind of miss the swipe-up to display numbers/symbols and am still getting used to losing another line of screen real estate to the permanently-visible line of punctuation marks, but it will definitely be more useful.
Aside from pressing and holding the keys marked with a number, is there any other way to entire a string of numbers consecutively? I tried holding the shift key and tapping on numbers, but that only seems to cycle between shift-modes.
And finally, I think in the Gingerbread thread someone joked that the keyboard looks like it's Halloween themed. I'm inclined to agree
Overall-- pretty swell!
Tried on MIUI rom, it seems definitely less impressive than what I thought it was going to be. No more sliding up :/ no multi-touch :/ and not a big improvement on fast typing errors. But I really like the colors! Maybe it just doesn't work very well because it's on froyo and MIUI?

HTC Sensation + Swype

Just FYI, Swype works just fine on the HTC Sensation and is still the best/fastest keyboard for any device (IMHO).
The Beta program at Swype is currently open to new members.

What's the difference between Swype and Trace which is already on the sense keyboard? Also, can you use a standard phone keyboard with Swype? I've been using the standard phone keyboard in portrait, but when I turn the phone to landscape to bring up the full keyboard, the trace function is missing. It only works when the portrait keyboard is set to full keyboard.
got it.
still puzzles me why HTC decided not to load Swype on the Sensation and come up with their own...
anyway, what is up with the part of the agreement saying it can/may read your passwords, credit card info, ect?
edit: never mind... didn't realize it's a standard Android message for non market typing app... doh! lol

One sucks and one doesn't lol (j/k). Swype has been around a while been adjusted and tweaked based on feedback of millions of users. Trace, while a nice attempt by HTC to add the same functionality doesn't come close
