Hero Keyboard

What are the odds that we can just pull the keyboard from the current hero rom and implement it into the cupcake... because at this point that is really the only reason i want the hero rom... at least a main reason
I know alot of people would agree with me
let me know!

The Keyboard? You mean the htc keyboard (HTC_IME.apk)? because thats been ported to other builds already.

Oh dear
this thread needs to be locked..........Dude , do the search and ye shall find the keyboard.

to do it from the terminal

way to jump on his case without doing a little research yourself. i believe he is talking about the multi-touch keyboard support on the htc hero device. and now to actually help you answer your question....
i really do not know why....
i haven't taken any time to search through the build.
but im gonna take a wild guess and think it has something to do with the multi touch...
i hope that helped...

question.
Since the Hero sence UI has multi-touch support. Does this mean the Hero Keyboard has multi-touch as well?

lol not that i've seen from anything about the actual phone, much less the builds

Multitouch keyboard? What would be the point in that? You could hold shift while typing on a screen that small it would be too fiddly to be useful, no reason for it anyway (unless I'm missing something obvious). Someone correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the multitouch was have at the moment emulated anyway? So it couldn't detect two different points just the distance between two points.. again I could be wrong, that was my understanding.

hero keyboard sucks!

actually hero's keyboard is very different from the normal htc keyboard. the pop-up keys pop up faster (way faster, so it's useful like android keyboard), the layout of the alt-pages are different, and the period is always present in all the screens. i would love to have hero's keyboard in cupcake.

I delete htc ime from the hero builds.. it gets on my tits popping up all the time and suggesting words when i'm using the hardware keyboard.
Waste of time on a phone with a proper keyboard imo.

amen!, I removed all IME from the build I use. Nothing like the actual feel of keys, btw, did you say tits?

nothing like being able to text with one hand though
I wish someone would mod the HTC_IME to allow swipe gestures (up=shift, down=close, left=delete, right=alternate)
Who wants a challenge??

I'm not sure and correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't Better Keyboard use the same word library as the android keyboard? I much prefer the HTC library! Although I may still give Better Keyboard a shot.

Expresso ROM wanted on Nexus One

Hi, I recently have been so obsessed with the espresso and sense integration on the mytouch 3g slide. The bubble icons and all of those different customizations are great! Nobody has created a Rom of this for the nexus one? I would actually trade my nexus for it if it had a 3.7 inch screen and not a 3.4. A major difference to me.

Prob one will be out once code for froyo drops! It's getting the update to froyo in a few weeks!

I just bought my girl the Slide to replace her G1 and I have to say I really do like the UI and features, if it came to the Nexus, I'd probably use it.

Espresso ROM here for N1: http://thedroidsector.com/roms?id=57

Espresso you mean?
Kingklick did one back in Feburay. It's not bad actually. Maybe you can bug him to pick it back up and finish it since its still in beta he says. I think he stopped on it because the Desire was more "in" and demanded more than Espresso.

I don't care for the Sense UI but it looks much better than the Hero/Desire Sense UI.

The Espresso ROM you guys keep posting is not the one that HTC specially customized for the Slide. I haven't tested it myself, but I am a sure it isn't - I believe it is that one that was leaked forever ago. Also if it was it, King would have titled Slide2Nexus or something similar. I don't even believe the Slide was announced then.
Therefore it isn't really what the OP is looking for.

hey
thanks for yall help. and thats right... i am not going to flash an alpha and probably isnt the my touch slide expresso UI.. scared to brick or something and imma just keep running the froyo rom from modaco

OP asked for Espresso Rom, it was provided, sorry for trying to assist. He didn't ask for the Slide Espresso, just stated he likes it and wanted an Espresso Rom.
King didn't title it Slide2Nexus probably because the rom was leaked from a phone of unknown origin and name. So it became Espresso2Nexus instead. Maybe he should of called it Unknown2Nexus instead?
HTC myTouch Slide codename is Espresso... wonder if that means anything. As far as I know, no other phone officially runs the Espresso UI. So its safe to say (I think) that it came from an early developed myTouch Slide.
Kings Espresso rom looks and acts just like the myTouch Slide with a few apps missing. It has the pretty bubbles around the icons and a sleek looking launcher. It's been months since I ran it but from the reviews of the MTS, it looks the same.

When it's time I could see a 2.2 Expresso ROM in the future for the N1. I can't wait!

when I used HTC Magic, once I flashed an Espresso Rom, it was fancy especially its dialer and contacts. But that rom was buggy. But now switching to N1, I really hop to use Espresso even it is buggy. Hope someone could cook one for us haha

Has this ROM been abandoned?
No updates in a while.
I too have a girlfriend with the mytouch and love hte sense ui its packin.
ESPECIALLY the lock-screen music controls!!

HTC Ringtone Trimmer

Does anybody have the HTC Ringtone Trimmer APK by chance? If so could you post it? Ringdroid sucks sack and this was the best ringtone trimmer I've ever used and using DarchDroid 2.7 will this work?

Isn't it part of the HTC Music app?

DarchDroid has no HTC components...

Here you go
Edit: forgot to de-odex it this should work
Also btw I thought that I read something Darch posted before stating that anything HTC won't work on that rom...

I didn't hear that but I was wondering about that. I'll give it a try. Thanks a lot man.

Very nice work bro....many many thanks from Greece

Because this is for Sense framework, not Touchwiz.

Sent from my CDMA Hero. I got some hot Ginger-on-Hero action here!

anyway possible to modify it to use on touchwiz? no other trimmer works like this one?

I don't know. I suppose if you had the time and skills you could.

well i ment for someone who has already done it lol, i dont have nearly enough skill to complete that kinda of transformation. i know some stuff about phones but not enough to program at all.
i was trying to leaqrn not to long ago but nothing made any sense to me.
hopefully someone here has enough skill and time to let me know theyve done it.

Nah, I haven't heard of the HTC trimmer being ported to any other launcher.

[REQ] Multi-touch keyboard on CM6

It feels weird typing without it! I tried installing but it failed. Any chance of getting this working! Thanks!

Nobody has it working with froyo yet. There's a main topic on this somewhere but I can access it from work.

Hmm I'll search it. Thanks!
sent with evo 4g

Also wondering about this, I miss my multi-touch.

Bump....
This seems like a tough one to get help with, A few others and I have posted similar questions, I added on about removing the voice key.

I also would love the droidx keyboard ported to froyo. I feel odd without it...

Anyone know why it doesn't work? Maybe I'll look into it
sent with evo 4g

I wish I knew.
There is a droid x port in the nexus area, that has a 2.2 version. Its probably the best looking multi-touch keyboard at the moment. Check it to see if you can install it.

Its asking me if I want to replace the system app... is the one from dcupdater still on my evo? Says app was not installed
sent with evo 4g

I am pretty sure that is because you already have another multi touch keyboard on your evo, it did similar things when I was installing other MT keyboards when others were still installed.
Also, are you trying to install the 2.2 nexus one droidx port?

Smart keyboard pro works with froyo and it's multitouch. It should hold you over till we get our own port of the droidx kb

I ended up using better keyboard for now. Still like the Droid x layout better though

Sidekick 4G ROM

My girlfriend just got the sidekick 4g and while playing around with it, I fell in love with the damn UI it uses. I know its pretty much a modded TW interface. Just curious if anyone else has looked at it and played with it and ended up liking it. I would love to see some type of port, tho I know very unlikely. And no "If you like TW then get the sidekick!!!!" comments, they are just pointless. The sidekick just doesn't have all the hardware I want. Tho I do miss the sidekick keyboard. Best damn physical keyboard I have ever used. RIP Danger. lol
Ninja Edit: Crap, I just noticed I posted in the wrong sub forum, If a MOD sees this, could you please relocate it.
