So I flashed Flipz Rom, and fell in love with the HTC_ime keyboard mod that doesnt include the arrows that the stock HTC keyboard does... I flashed Damagecontrol and it didn't include it, so I went hunting for it and found it in the N1 forums.
-No arrows to get in your way like the stock keyboard
-Very customizable

installed, works. thanks!
Do you need to be rooted? For this mod to work? I'm on unrooted stock Rom.. installed it but the arrow keys are still intact.

Its not a mod. Its a whole different keyboard. You have to activate it in the settings and then long press on any text field and change it from Touch Input to this.
Thanks... finally got it to work. I totally forgot to long press
@Auramaster, great find... Thanks
Anytime guys, just trying to help the Evo community
Oh my,......this is much better,....thank you!!
With all these options is hard not to get overwhelmed and lost,....does anyone know if there are color options?

Tap uninstall and then go back and Install it. I believe this removes the older version of HTC_IME then you install the skin version

So does it make the other buttons grow a lil or they are the same size, but the directional buttons are just gone.
If I rename the file and keep the same extension will it load up ok? It should right?
tried this but don't like it.. eventhough it removed the arrow keys, but it's missing the "hide keyboard" key. I use that often when typing in username password on websites that are zoomed in..
^ Hitting back removes the keyboard if it's up. Just saying, so no need for the keyboard drop down button.
I simply assigned swipe-down gesture to hide the keyboard. Convenient.

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.

Different colors at the bottom, delete the color from the file name when placing on sdcard. i.e. blueupdate.zip > update.zip
MUST BE DEODEXED
All Swypes have matching tracers
All these are for 2.2, there is no reason you shouldnt be on 2.2
Original images from bilbobrian, just some extra days on my part getting it to you
As always do a back up
If on 2.2 and have boot strapper installed to use this update .zip, throw it on sd card, open droid x bootstraper reboot to recovery, apply update.zip, reboot done!
........ without bootstrapper method...........
if you want just the apk for a different color just extract it from the update.zip file
use root explorer or other app to make a copy of your original app ( its in system/app)
First you must remove swype.apk from system/app
any way of your choosing, terminal or adb, then reboot.
follow the following directions
Put the .apk on your sdcard, navigate to it with astro or your fav file browser, open the apk and choose install. If it still says only gives you the option to uninstall, you didnt uninstall correctly.
if you can get it to show up after install go into settings and keyboard and make sure swype is checked
DONE
................ If you somehow botched it...............
restore your back up.
If you were careless enough to not do a back up and your on 2.2 get a clean download here.. MY droid world 2.2 follow those instructions.
then download file again, your last one might of been bad. When in recovery go to mounts and mount system, then install the zip
..........................................................................

For all those that pm me to buy me a

Thanks, I had this theme on my incredible. Going to install it when I get home.
Thank you so much! This is awesome!
Fantastic work! Thanks

Finally got the Black Droid Does themed swype working. This is for the X only, landscape mode is different than other versions out there.
Want it?
First you must take full responsibility for the actions you are about to take.
Download the attached link. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=QVWKWYK8 Put the .apk on your sdcard.
*optional (using astro or root explorer) Navigate to your system/app folder, find the existing swype.apk and rename to .bak
Open terminal emulator on your X
su
mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
cp /sdcard/Swype.apk /system/app
mount -o ro,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
Open a text box and verify. Its that easy
This cannot be done by copy and paste in root explorer.
Credit goes to
teenfaces (xdaforum) for the code used to make this work
bilbobrian (xdaforums) I think he themed this for other phones (please correct me if it wasnt originally him)

+1 for me.
Great looking skin though.
I can upload the apk straight from my settings, but need to know how to do out straight from my phone.... I'm on the road
op updated, praise the android gods for wireless tether.
New apk straight from my settings and one that i just removed the mic pngs from.
The stats for download said 28 downloads, so is this a hit or miss with peoples phones?
If your removing the swype before pushing this one try leaving it there then push the new one. That is how I did it. Strange thing is if you open up the apk and look at the images there is no button for the mic....
Im not going to be able to tether tomorrow, will have spotty service at best. I will try and get on here when I can though, keep me posted.

I downloaded both of the links on the OP. the "NEW UPLOAD" file still showed the Voice Mic. The one labeled without mic (Duhh ) did indeed take the mic off my keyboard.
Seems to be working great. Thanks for your work.
I think I may just leave it as is it doesn't get in the way for me and it adds a little custom functionality

The Mic button DOES bring up Voice Search.
In a funny/related issue, my Swype Skin DOES NOT SHOW the mic, but if you press where it 'was', the voice search comes up anyway

You are correct. I never really use it, and it looks just like the Voice search box, so I just assumed it was the same.

Ok, so i unstalled the themed swype, reinstalled the stock swype. It gave me the space for the mic button but did nothing when pressed. If anyone has the original still there does the mic appear on your and does it do anything?
Anyways, with the stock swype on my phone, recompiled a different themed swype and placed it on my phone. Still no mic button (was never in this build to begin with) and no voice search opens when tapping in that area.
Follow new link for v0.3 and new instructions.

I've been searching all day, and I can't get a working copy of the Froyo HTC_IME APK.
Does anyone have it, or have the ability to rip it? I really wish I didn't have to request it here but I've exhausted all my attempts here to find it.
Help would be really appreciated. I'm currently running Damage Control 3.5 which didn't get official Froyo Sense keyboard. The mod does not have arrows, which is necessary for EVO users.
-EDIT: If anyone knows how to rip it from a ROM, that information can help as well, as long as it's not too difficult. I can have a friend attempt to do that.

Awesome! Thanks major to the creator, gIMpSTa. And thanks to jonasl for the mod.

Thanks. For some reason, however, it says "Application Not Installed". Any reasons as to why this is happening?
Again, I'm running DamageControl 3.5.
I did, while waiting for a reply, find a backup made by Titanium that includes the keyboard as system data. I could not run a restore for it though. It feels like I just will never get that keyboard back unless I flash a new ROM.
So, out of the options below, what's my best move?
1. Troubleshoot the installation error.
2. Troubleshoot Titanium
3. Flash a different ROM
This might seem like too much for a single keyboard, but you don't know how much I miss those arrows...

Anyways dude, the froyo keyboard is nice, so I could see why you want it. I've tried swype, and just plain deleted that gimpsta crap after like an hour (its nice for people who can't theme, but just ugly compared to a themes froyo).
To rip the apk, just download a stock Rom, open the zip, and it should be in system/app/. From there, u have to adb push it to the system/app/ folder of your own.phone.
Another alternative would be downloading a stock Rom n deleting literally everything in the zip minus the HTC_IME and flashing it.

Hey! I'm not really sure whats up with that. I am downloading DC right now to see whats inside. I made a new flashable. Maybe it will work. Before you flash it i would remove any extra keyboards you may have installed. Then also look in your /system/app/ folder and see if there are multiple copies of htc_ime.apk. there really should be only one. lastly, i would go to >settings>applications>manage>all>TouchInput>Clear defaults(dunno if you can do this) but maybe clear data. Then reboot recovery and flash this file. Maybe it wasnt working because it needed the clicker.apk as well.
Hope something works for ya. These files are from fresh so maybe that is why they don't work. ???
Has anyone figured out how to get this keyboard to work on cyanogen?
What exactly is the clicker?
I just ripped the APK from my Stock Froyo install for HTC_IME.apk, which should be the right keyboard. I have the clicker installed from that other HTC_IME Mod apk that's been around for a while, but that's not the multitouch version and doesn't have the arrow keys.
I'm going to see if the same hacks the guy who hacked the first one will work on this new APK. But I can't play around with it yet.
Check out APKtool to decompile the APK and look at the source for the other HTC_IME mod to kind of see what he did.
I too would like to use it in my CM install.
the clicker is what allows you to calibrate/recalibrate the touch input

I have learned so many things... and yet, just figured this out.... sometimes i wonder about myself and my sanity,.
on topic now, i think the touch input keyboard requires more than one apk to be installed, or an apk and a library.
9/13/10 - Added pink keyboard as per itrackit's request.
8/27/10 - Added new dark keyboard. Working on themed swype.
I have attached two themed HTC_IME keyboards for CM6.
Blue looks great with blue, obviously, and black looks great with vanilla as well as works with blackmod splendidly.
Screenies only available from the blue build currently, please post more from whatever your build is. You can install these from a file manager.
To install just go to sdcard in a file manager such as Astro, and select the file. Then on your home screen press menu, go to settings, go to keyboards, and check the box beside HTC_IME mod.
Thanks go out to the xda team for originally making this keyboard what it is.
Can you give me the link to get that keyboard

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?
