Android 2.0 supports multi touch; however, in the android roms for the mytouch and g1, multi touch is not supported. Can we get real multi touch zooming in the browser and other apps in android 2.0?
Multi Touch In Android 2.0
I will be glad if it have good multi touch soft-keyboard, nothing else no matter for me. by the way, sorry for reply
My G1 supports multitouch, but only thing that uses it is the browser. I don't see what's so amazing about it, I prefer to use the zoom buttons most of the time anyway.
a multi-touch keyboard? forgive my ignorance but what would be the point in that?

It increases typing speed. But multi touch is more important for the browser. That is why we should focus on getting multi touch to work in the browser in android 2.0.
the only problem is that the currently used kernels (mostly cyan's 1.6 kernel) aren't suitable for multitouch in 2.0 as some modules or other code seems to be missing. the current aosp kernel supports multitouch in 2.0 though

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't HTC_IME.apk a multitouch keyboard? It might just be me, but I can type ten times better on it.
It isn't a matter of multitouch being in the rom. I believe multitouch in 2.0 is enabled. The issue is support in the apps themselves. Just because the multitouch is available doesnt mean that all the applications will magically have support.
You would have to code multitouch gesture support into every individual app. Which would be a ton of work and most likely illegal. There are a few multitouch supported apps out there. If you want multitouch in your browser it should just be a matter of porting Loccys better browser to the rom.
Do you mean for instance on kingklick beta feta
or hero eclair 3.1 the browser dont support multi touch? And you want to know why?? If so the drivers aren't available yet but rumor is they should be available bfore christmas 09!
From my tests, multi touch is not enabled in any of the 2.1 hero roms or the aosp 2.0 roms.
One way to test it is by using PicSay. If you use PicSay using the Droid phone it supports multi touch when resizing images. If you install that same app on a G1 running any of the 2.1 hero roms or the aosp 2.0 roms ... it doesn't work.
It seems that there is something missing.

Yes the HTC_IME.apk is multi touch and HELL yes it's sooooooo much faster and more accurate then the stock IME.

It's all about speed. If you hit letters quickly on the stock IME it will drop letters if you type to quickly. With multi touch it will register each letter and not miss a beat.
As someone said it requires a kernel that supports multitouch, but it needs the other half Iof the apps supporting it also- as someone said
I think one of the first aosp roms supported it, i'm pretty sure since i was able to draw two lines at the same time in the dev tools pointer test. It's just not possible on newer roms because they use the cm kernel and it uses a different way of multitouch.

It would be possible yes, but seeing as no one is using it, it is probably very unstable
HTC_IME is NOT multitouch. The simple way to check is to press when letter, and while holding that down, press another letter. If the letters dont both register then there is no multitouch there, meaning your finger must be completely off the screen before pressing another letter. That is why multitouch is faster.

but on cupcake hero roms, it is multitouch. when you install it on a non-hero it doesn't work.
and i have been able to get picsay on 2.0 before with multitouch... cant remember which rom tho.
why are people saying they want to see multitouch in the browser "AT LEAST" ?
its been there almost like 9 months now.. smfh

ECLAIR man, eclair.
guys, try dolphin browser... supposed to have multitouch...
Just an FYI, there is a similar discussion going on over here.
So why dose multi touch work on the better browser but not dolphin browser?
Also a little confused, is it the kernel or the drivers that is stopping it from working?
Ive managed to edit some of the xml files for the built in keyboard and i have to say that it works so much better now.
the idea to make the keyboard work better was inspired by how the buttons were spaced on the iphone. i noticed that they were spaced farther apart compared to the hd2 so i painstakingly edited every buttons' "virtual" position and this has resulted in a keyboard that is much more responsive(the lags seem to have lessened considerably) and accuracy in typing is now at par with an iphone.
i never use xt9 so i just removed it(in the 1st three attachments)w/c also resulted in reduced mis pressing it when trying to press an "A".
i also moved the dpad arrows(also in the 1st three attachments) to the top making the period, comma and spacebar easier to press without mistakes.
the backspace button has been enlarged for better ergonomics.
to lycox, thanks for letting me use your skin. heres the link to the original skin's thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=709916
thanks also goes to p107r0 for leading me in the right direction.
this wouldnt have been possible without XmlGui so big thank yous to programatix.
Instructions: download the attached rar files.unrar and copy all files inside the folder directly to the windows directory of your HD2(you will need a 3rd party file explorer like resco to overwrite the existing files). soft reset. thats it...
i strongly suggest to backup all the files to be replaced just in case something goes awry.
do this at your own risk.please dont blame me if your phone suddenly gets bricked. mine worked perfectly after replacing all files.
please leave a comment after youve tried it.
this is only for portrait mode. i didnt touch landscape coz i dont use it...
if theres anyone kind enough to make a cab file out of this please do.
EDIT: if you need xt9 use the Orig KB Edited attachment
Update: i made a version 2 of the mod with the spaces between the buttons even farther apart. some people might find this more comfortable but the mod sometimes results in "no presses". and by the way i succesfully skinned the spacebar and shift key thanks to dinik and p107r0.use the attached sipmap.dll in the fallout keyboard rar file but its far from perfect.eg:the .com button has disappeared.i have to look into this a bit more to fix it...
if you want the original gtx skin just replace the fallout png files with the ones from the edited kb rar file.
EDIT 2: i added an original version with the arrows at the bottom and the xt9 working.
EDIT 3: i know its a bit confusing but to shed some light on all the attached files heres an explanation.
the first one(Edited KB.rar) is exactly like Edit KB by boogiecornejo.cab except in cab form.
the third(FAllout KB.rar) is like the first two except that its semi skinned with a fallout theme.
the last(Orig KB Edited10-3-2010) contains the files needed to replace in the windows folder to get the functionality of my mod using whatever keyboard you already have(assuming its a normal layout eg: with the directional arrows at the bottom) in your device.
i hope that shed some light on whatever questions there are about the files...
Thanks!
I abandoned the original due to the many typo's. My first impression of your modded version is very positive.
Regards,
How do you switch from alpha to numeric keys (can see how to get back but how do you get to it in the first place)? Does it still use XT9 and error correction as per original even though you've removed the XT9 button?

hello dunc!to switch from alpha to numeric just press the @ button.
xt9 is completely disabled and im not really sure how to turn it on without having to go back to the drawing board. editing the xml file is to say the least "tedious" but if a lot of people would request it back i might, as i said, "go back to the drawing board"
its actually a miracle of sorts that this mod worked coz im not really into developing anything on these forums. this is actually my first real contribution to the community despite having been around for the last 6 or 7 years...
I would like to give it ago but i do use the XT9 function all the time, at the moment i've gone back to the old style phone keypad rather than a qwerty keyboard as it seems to be less laggy and the buttons are far larger (i got fat fingers)
Good work on this though i'm surprised no one else has done something before wish i knew where to start

lol congrats on this release.
to me it is difinately looking very impressive.

oh would difinately try it out once it has got some decent skins cause it currently looks.... kinda like a little bit like spiking my eye. along would my screwed up today screen I just dont want anything else added into the phone....
will report back once I reflashed and installed the keyboard.
congrats, good luck, and keep up this master piece

if you want to turn t9 on/off switch keyboards to another e.g. compact keyboard hit the t9 switch option and then change back to your normal keyboard and t9 will be changed

Yeah, noticed this on mine - left space and shift keys in original style unskinned. Also keys don't line up on mine - i.e. when I press 'H' I get a 'B' and so on. Looks like I'll have to stick with Resco KB Pro for now!

is everybody experiencing this? i might have upped the wrong xml file...
I've got the same issue. None of the keys match up even though the pop-up of each key press is correct.
EDIT: It looks like it was just an issue with XT9. XT9 must be turned off before using this layout. Just go into any of the other keyboard layouts, select ABC instead of XT9, switch back to Full QWERTY keyboard, and everything works like its supposed to do.
Thank you Boogiecornejo for making HD2 keyboard finally functional. I went from an iPhone to the HD2 and I always missed how well the keyboard worked. Great Work!!

I've searched throughout XDA and can't seem to find a keyboard that I can install that brings back my beloved T9! Searching the market brings up little as well.
I just recently got CM6.1 + Kernel #43 (+ various other things) but before this i was still using MoDaCo's 1.5 ROM and although I love [almost] EVERYTHING about CM6 - I can't find a way to get the dial-pad keyboard with T9 for texting. I'm assuming it doesn't exist.
I just want to know what keyboard is good and simple and includes a T9 dialpad-style keyboard for portrait view. Preferably free... but not required.
Some keyboards I've heard of, but no verification of T9:
Smart Keyboard Pro
Swift Key
SWYPE

See my HTC IME thread Has compact QWERTY and T9 modes
THANKYOU!
This is fantastic!
EXACTLY what I was looking for. I can type extremely fast now (even in the car... shhhh) and at first, I was glad to have to T9 back but the keyboard itself looked a bit goofy. Then I saw the 'AOSP generic look'; it is perfect.
Thanks so much!
Follow up
Ok - I had to follow up on this again after using the keyboard for a few days. I don't think I did it much justice.
This keyboard is incredible. Not only is it simple looking (although you can apply other themes if you wish), the customizability (is that a word?) is insane. I spent forever just going through and playing with all the settings. Sometime it takes a while since you have to kill the keyboard and wait a second for it to come back in a typing app to test it, then go back to the settings menu, tweak, rinse & repeat.
I was thrilled to see that there are custom smiles because when I do use the smilies, which isn't often, I don't like them to have the 'dash' noses (ex. ) I prefer the simple but maybe I'm just really picky. Having the customizable smilies is awesome. You could even just replace them with anything you use often. One downside however is if you add too many, they'll just run off the screen and you'll not have access to them.
The custom swipes is a nice feature as well. When you swipe along the keyboard in one of four directions, you can assign custom functions. I have my 'swipe-up' set to 'Shift' so I can get capital letters quickly. I know it doesn't seem quicker than pressing the shift key but it is for me. It just feels more natural too when I'm texting or emailing. You can even set a swipe to change languages , I think this would make multi linqual people very satisfied. Type BOOM Tipo BOOM 类型 BOOM Тип.
There are many other settings including the organization of buttons, word prediction and spelling settings, and much more. You can even save and restore settings!
Best of all... it's FREE!
Edit: Thanks again!

So the wife can't live without her stock HTC keyboard. I'm going to flash AOSP's CM7 build for her, but I was wondering if anyone knows of a plain old stock HTC ime that will work with GB and specifically this ROM? Thanks.
I would love to offer any help I can to make this mod a reality. So far, I have gathered the following links that will surely be helpful in making this mod.
There are many users on the different individual rom threads, especially in senseless and aosp/cm9 roms, who are requesting to install HTC_IME (Touch Input), as it is the best input option around for some languages. I can attest firsthand to the fact that the Chinese handwriting input is by far the best handwriting input available for android (HTC is a Taiwanese company), so please don't suggest that everyone who wants htc_ime just go and download some other keyboard. They really did a good job with it, and people want to use it on AOSP!
The work done so far:
Jonas made the mod for gingerbread and devices with lower resolution screens. There is a lot of information about it here and links to downloads. It works on non-htc android devices.
http://www.linux-wizard.net/2011/02...c-ime-keyboard-under-a-non-htc-android-phone/
Original HTC_IME mod thread by jonas. The last page or so of the thread is full of posts of people saying please make this mod for ICS/qhd. So far, no one has done it...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=624416
This is a HTC_CIME mod for qvga screens. You can see in the screens that it works on MIUI and with multi-language support. This seems like a very good lead, as it may possibly work on our device if scaled up!

A way to get touch input back into virtuous inqusition rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1462460&highlight=with+libs
And finally, from our very own device theme forum, there is of course the package done by MichaelM. I think this is going to be our best shot at getting this working in aosp roms. I triead flashing the file "with libs" (should include multi-lang) on Vorbeth's rom, but it just continuously FCs with u select touch input (but touch input does show up!).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1384640
As I said, I am willing to learn as much as I need to to help make this mod, I just need someone with a bit more experience than me to offer some help! Can someone please give even a brief overview of how to do this. Do we need to run logcats to find out lib dependencies? I'm sure the whole process can't be all that difficult (well, one can hope!).
Thank you in advance, sensation community!
p.s. if I forgot to give credit to anyone else who has done work on htc_ime mod please forgive me. Post the info in this thread if you find it so we can get this going!
2 things, 1, I would love to see this mod happen, I've gotten used to the ics keyboard but would still love the HTC one. 2, if possible, the latest HTC_IME keyboard would be best in my opinion because I love the swipe gestures that you can turn on and off without actually using the Swype keyboard because the Swype keyboard isn't something I am entirely fond of anymore

good luck to you, sir!
BUMP! I really wanna see this happen too! But maybe we are looking at it from the wrong angle? I'm no dev, not in the slightest, but the HTC_IME that comes on the stock sensation is already qHD formatted. Would it be possible/easier to port jonasl's mods to the newer HTC_IME rather than trying to scale up the old one and fix it to run on ICS?

Now all we need to do is to put CIME back to it.

Hi all
I have created the HTC One S Wiki. I find that if they are updated, they can be a great source of information to all. Please help to keep it updated, as it helps out newbies and cuts down on them opening new threads in the forum. Its also a great resource for the veterans.
This helps to keep the clutter down on the main forum, so makes it easier for us all!
Please update it with any thing you feel is valid. I will leave this thread open to discuss Wiki issues.

Swype doesn't work because of the Menu Button on the Display. That changes the available ScreenResolution and swype thinks the resolution is not supported. If you redirect the menu button to a hardkey, than the screen is free and swype works perfect =)

The real Resolution is 960x540 pixel, but due to the onscreen menu button on the bottom of the screen in some apps the available resolution is only like 920x540 and therefore swype says, the resolution is not supported...
Gotcha, thanks. I knew the screen res isn't compatible but didn't understand which menu button you meant.
glad you got it. Have to translate everything so for the most time i have no idea what the proper translation would be. For me the menu button is the right klick on a pc mouse =D

Swype doesn't work because of the Menu Button on the Display. That changes the available ScreenResolution and swype thinks the resolution is not supported. If you redirect the menu button to a hardkey, than the screen is free and swype works perfect =)

Hey Highroller,
Do you have anymore input for this. I already assign the menu button to the 3rd hard key instead of app switcher in the cy8c-touchkey.kl so it works as a menu button.
The button now works like a menu key but sometimes it still draws the onscreen menu and I can't install swype. Where else would I change it?

oh great, ill poke around and see what i can do. while i havent had the One s for more than 24 hours now and dont know much yet about the HTC One series -- my question is thisn -- does the ONE-S and the ONE-X differ so much? would it be appropriate to have a ONE-Series wiki? That way, you get double the wiki-ness.
will play with the wiki this weekend, nothing like a good wiki.
