So this is pretty old and im sure posted many times, and i see tons of people asking for customized keyboards and its so easy a caveman can do it. All you have to do is register really quick on this site and you can color your own low-res IME KEYBOARD it takes less than 5 mins to make your own keyboard any color you want. Just go to this site and make sure you do the low res version cause the hi res version will NOT work. I made about 20 keyboards myself at this site. Im sure you know how to install it by now if you dont shame on you. Choose froyo if you are on froyo if not it has a drop down box for you to select which os you are running. Register and enjoy making your own keyboards. If you are confused let me know.
DISCLAIMER: I didnt make this site but the guys who did are bad ass, I just wanted to share some knowledge and dont worry I wont ask for donations *yelling* NOW ALL OF YOU GIVE ME 5 BUCKS RIGHT NOW LOL JKJK

Here is the clicker so you can calibrate the keyboard, just install it with the HTC_IME.apk once you finish making your own, and grey keyboard is included for you lazy fools.
Anyone in here possibly know or have a tutorial on how to make a custome skin for Better Keyboard?

I have also read that on the better keyboard website and have tried goggling it with no success.
If it were so easy you would think someone would have made a quit little tutorial for it.
yeah i guess u got a point, idk better keyboard sucks anyways try swype or xda htc keyboard or shapewriter
Sent from my HERO200 using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
Don't like swype and the xda keyboard lags my phone.
How do you modify your keyboard files? Just change the pngs or you also gotta mess with the xml files?
Can anyone give me a flashable zip that has a smiley key that you can edit? or at least one with a normal '' as opposed to '' key?
Thanks guys. Y'all are awesome

Threw this together earlier using only my phone while on a longggggg boring ride ;__;
I'd have to say that the zipsigner app is by far one of the best dev apps to come forward in the android market.
Haha, this keyboard was probably the only thing that was worthwhile about the trip
Edit: Forgot to add that yes, the zip is flashable
Kudos to you my good sir cuz I broke my neck trying to edit XML files to get this to work to only be hit with countless fc's lol mind if I ask what you did for future reference?

If you want a different themed keyboard to have this edit let me know (please provide me a link or attachment ). I'll be able to throw it together in a few minutes for ya.
And I agree with you guys, the "" looks a lot better than "(-:"

Don't see why it wouldn't be..I've used it in every application I have that has an input box (terminal emulator, handcent, stockmms, titanium, etc, etc) without any problems
To the OP: I'll have the keyboard up once I find a good download for it and have 5-10 min free at work
Here's the non-themed keyboard for you guys.
This zip is flashable as well
And hopefully I'll have access to a computer relatively soon to make a write up for you guys on how I did it (plus the pink CM theme, and a couple other requests people made ) - I'm still out of town for a little while longer.
Pictures will be included for the short tut because they make everything look better

well, i got a suggestion for you (and please dont take it as rude or what not), the whole JUST adding letters to an image is not working so good in this case. You need to try to match the letters or whatever you are adding to the image colors. A few examples, then assasins creen image is hot, but the purple letters look out of place, maybe match then to the colors of the background, and add a shadow that matches with the lighter/brighter color. Another example will be to make the androids on the girls a bit smaller and match their outfits, and maybe a little soft blurring on the edges so it looks like a real tattoo. Either way, most of this look real good, just need a light touch up Thanks for sharing!
EDIT: here is a quick example of keeping the color scheme, hope it gives you ideas

Please don't bump your own stuff. It looks a bit silly... as a very wise dev told me, if the fans like your work, they will find it. (I hope you didn't skip over what PHE-NOM said, it's VERY good advice.) Also, don't forget to link the site you originally found the pictures on, because it is plagiarism. And stealing ones work for your benefit!! Good stuff though.. you have potential.

I just made this, it's very simple. I basically just wanted to make a template to highlight the time and weather. I may make more, but I'm hoping some people in the community will contribute to this thread with more creative themes. :thumbup: if any contributors do add to this thread, I will add their theme to this or next post

Thanks a lot for this. Came to this subforum specifically for a thread like this. HTC just unleashed great power with their update, I can't wait to see more specifically designed backgrounds/themes.

If you want some great wallpaper try Muzei. Then download any number of contributors like National Geographic, 500px, APOD etc. All free. You can configure Muzei to change your wallpaper daily, hourly and anything in between, or you can page through the multiple selection and choose for yourself. Other customization is also available from within Muzie. I particularly like the 500 px wallpapers, they are fantastic.
There are several muzei apps...is one in particular better than the others?
May be easier to just post them here. Worded great in the GS4 forum... Just saying ?

How do I set wallpapers so they use the whole wallpaper and also scroll with the homescreens?
I use nova launcher instead of stock, because like this function, it adds a lot of features I can't do with the stock launcher. And google voice search works without that annoying delay as well.
