This one is my work (aside from taking it from "Damage Control" so I didn't have to de-obex [don't know how =p])! It is 100% original! =D

EDIT: Oh my gosh! Featured on Droid-life.com! Sorry to disappoint guys, but I don't really know what I'm doing. Someone is probably going to have to take over from here or I'll need to learn a little bit more.
EDIT2: Attempted to get settings working. Failed. Looks like this is the end of the line for me. :| I would always be interested if someone would like to work with me on how to do it though!

Yea, the official one works well too. Would love to see someone rip the version from the EVO with the 4-way arrows on the bottom since the DroidX has no direction pad or mouse wheel.

The four arrow keys would be nice, but the red bullseye lets you easily move the cursor around (similar to the iPhone) and you can set the volume keys to move it left/right too, which is plenty good for me

I'm trying to learn to use (Bak)smali. I believe that is whats needed to crack it.

Exactly! i was gonna suggest letting ppl know where they could go and create their own skinned keyboard instead of using the one OP created. Its really easy to create your own at his website.

Haha, yeah I guess I should have. That wasn't really the point of the thread though, is why I didn't. =p
On a different note, I have a working Evo keyboard apk if anyone is interested. I spent a few hours on it and learned to use Baksmali/Smali all by myself! =p

If you can, that would be awsome. Thanks. I really appreciate this.

FWIW the swype keyboard does include arrow keys if you swype from the "swype" key to the SYM key right next to it.

Thanks for the EVO keyboard.
EDIT: Have not been able to turn vibration off of this keyboard, any suggestions? I had it off for all my other keyboards but this one seems to vibrate still.

I dont see the evo kb under input types. Im new to android so maybe I messed it up. I copied the apk to my sd and installed it through Astro. Is that right?

Hey, did you get a chance to see the Vib issue? well not issue, but to have it off? The Droid X seems to be a rougher and more vibrant vib, well it is Moto, theyre know for that.
I am Patiently waiting, The main thing that is missing, is the Touch Input menu, thats where we change, Well, for the Evo KB.

[MOD] Remap Sense Rosie Buttons - MT3G Style Launcher - Updated 5/25 for Fresh 2.1.2

Attached are a few modified Rosie.apk files for remapping the bottom sense launcher buttons / functionality.
EDIT: Updated 5/25/10 with new versions supporting Fresh 2.1.2. See Here for downloads.
EDIT: This post revised on 5/8/2009, reflecting the fixed version. Some of the posts/comments that follow are referring to the older (original) version and no longer apply.
The first attachment (RosieMT3G.apk) moves the phone launcher button to the left, the app drawer, with fully functioning up/down (open/close) arrows, to the middle, and replaces the 'add shortcut' button on the right with an 'open contacts' button, similar to the functionality found in Zenulator's MyTouch 3G ROM.
The second attachment simply removes the left / right buttons, leaving you with a center only button for opening / closing the app drawer.
This will NOT modify your launcher graphics (in the first example espresso & second example a custom droid style launcher), as this is controlled in com.htc.resources.apk, however, it will switch out the icons (as shown), on your current Rosie / launcher, null out the 'Phone' text, center the launcher icon, and of course, remap the buttons.
What this does/will give you is the entire sense experience, but with a more 'Vanilla' launcher like functionality. For some, the best of both worlds.
Known Bugs:
None currently!
Push the desired apk to your phone's '/system/app' directory, or drop on your sd card and click to install.
You may want to backup your existing Rosie.apk, should you wish to return to stock.

EDIT: For rosies modified with LWP support, see here.
EDIT 2: If you are designing a custom rosie using a concept / look similar to the stock HTC 3-button rosie, see here for an alternative XML file to replace in any of the attached apk files, to adjust the spacing used between buttons.
NOTE: After downloading your desired apk, rename to 'Rosie.apk' before pushing to your phone.
I decompiled Rosie yesterday and found a few .smali's to play with, but I got lazy. LOL Which ones are you looking at?
Edit, another suggestion would be downloading Zen's My Touch rom and rip apart Rosie from there. I loaded it up last night, but the 100% always on was killing my battery.

Yea, it's much easier to edit our existing rosie than to port over a different one using a newer/modified framework.
I was/am all other the place on this mod, but mostly working in 'launcher.smali' and 'Launcher$ButtonListener.smali', in addition to some XML edits.

I took a look at it, the framework is very different. Almost like apples and oranges. The bug is more related to the way I "hacked" it to work more than anything else.
Thanks for getting this working, now i can use the theme i made for zens rom the first day it came out, cus i really liked how it just looked cleaner, and the button mapping makes more sense logically. Thanks again.

Swype for the EVO? Now with an IDIOT-PROOF GUIDE!

Does anyone have a working .apk for Swype? I've heard that the Incredible version does not work, and I'd like to have a compatible version ready when I get my EVO this week.
IDIOT-PROOF GUIDE:
1. Go to settings, and select Applications.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2. Check the box to "allow installation of non-Market applications."
3. NOTE: Some of these may be expired. Make sure you check the thread for newer downloads! Download the latest beta version here. If that doesn't work, you can download this older version using the web browser of your choice (NOTE: Dolphin Browser HD seems to have some problems downloading .apks, so try the stock browser before posting about an error), or download it to your PC and transfer it to your SD card. Or can download any of the Nexus One/Droid Incredible custom versions found here.
4. Navigate to the previously downloaded file using a file explorer like EStrong File Explorer or ASTRO click it.
5. Click "Install" to install.
6. Go back to the settings menu and click "Language & Keyboard."
7. Check the box next to Swype. Accept the prompt that pops up.
8. Open up any text field (text message, quick search, address bar, etc), and long press on the field.
9. Select "Input Method" from the pop-up.
10. Select "Swype" from the choices.
11. Start Swyping! Here is a video of the basics:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vKSSOl4f9RA
QUICK SWYPE FAQ:
Q: How do I add a word to the dictionary?
A: Tap the word out like a normal keyboard, then either a) just hit space, or b) press the Swype key.
Q: How do I remove a word from the dictionary?
A: Select and highlight ONLY the word that you wish to remove and press the Swype key. Follow the prompt to remove the word.
Q: How do I easily move the cursor location like the arrows on the HTC keyboard?
A: Drag your finger from the Swype key to the SYM key right next to it to get the interface with arrows to pop up.
I too am curious about this...I can't live without it!
got this one to use with a incredible but never try. when i get the evo i would try

so your saying that the linked version that was posted a few posts up works perfectly on your HTC EVO?? no probs what so ever?? you just installed it and it worked as in it didn't ask you if you'd agree it to record your key strokes like i've heard?? Just curious b/c I love the swype keyboard and want to use it!!
I only tried a few sentences with it, but it worked fine. A coworker played with it for a little longer, and while he had a hard time using it, it was his first time trying Swype. Filing it under user error rather than program error.
Used the apk from post #3, from ajftl.

That's AWESOME news!!! Thanks for writing back!!! Yea I can see how people who dont know how to use it can dislike it or have a hard time....but honestly I think its very easy to use and simple..no?? LOL... It's the best on screen keyboard I've ever used hands down and look forward to continue using it on my android htc evo once I get it!!!
So you just installed that file from post #3 and then it was there under the kb selection when you go to write and email/sms and thats it?? easy to install??
ok i just installed it.. seems good.. havent test it a whole day but works good so far.. i downloaded appinstaller from market then u would have to go to applications and check mark the unknown sources. just drag the app to ur sd once is there unplug the phone and open appinstaller swipe should be there. install it and done

(Updated 7/22/2010!)Droid X multitouch keyboard 2.1 addition

I remember seeing someone wanting a green highlight , multi touch keyboard. So, I made it. Had to change the green dot to blue, so it would look better
I take no credit for making the keyboard work for our devices. I also didn't come up with the fix for the & key.
Thanks goes to zack.xtr we now have a WORKING black multi-touch keyboard. Want to also thank bmtdan for showing me zack.xtr's post. Black keyboard is attached, all credit goes to zack.xtr.
Just follow install instructions below.
Updated all with fixed "<" key​zack.xtr keyboard.

This is just a small mod someone posted they wanted, when the keyboard was first released, for Evo. They wanted the highlight to be green, so I made it green. As far as speed, I can't increase anything to make you type faster. In my opinion I type faster on this key board with less mistakes.

and by the way, i took HTML and this looks a lot like it, if you want send me the files via PM and ill see if i can work on it. I CAN'T guarantee because i dont know how to test it.

I'm trying to make the buttons and background black. It's my understanding (from modding the Omnia keyboard, on windows mobile) that xml files control the color of the letter on the keyboard. If it is like Windows, then there is a string in one of the xml documents. Inside the apk there are different xml documents, just can't figure the right one out, and what would control what.

[SKN][Sept 18th][TrialExpired] - Swype/Mic

Well, go figure. I didn't know when the expiration date would hit, and sure enough, today is the day (9/18). If it makes you guys mad, imagine the frustration of the guy who spent dozens of hours relearning photoshop, learning hex color code, finding the tracer hex offset, learning how to properly edit and un-sign an apk file, learning to sign an apk file, re-relearning photoshop to make things look nicer, then re-re-relearning photoshop to make things look even nicer, then re-re-re-relearning photoshop to discover "Actions" that can automate the theming task, then creating five new keyboards, only to find that they've all expired!!!
Well, no regrets, that's my motto... That, and "Everybody Wang-Chung Tonight." At least I now can run Photoshop in my sleep, and maybe my skins I have made will easily port to a new version of Swype+Mic.
Thanks for the compliments and feedback, fellas. I'll take down the APKs to avoid confusion. The project will be on hold until noted otherwise.

Hey guys,
Thanks go to bilbobrian for finding Swype with the mic enabled.
Some were requesting a Swype keyboard like this, and I felt like learning how to theme/sign Swype, so here ya go! It has an orange tracer, as I re-themed bilbobrian's evo Swype.
Just unzip and install!
Hope it helps,

First post updated with Gray-Inverted themed Swype.
It isn't "all black" but it was quick and easy for today. Hopefully that will get you by.
I plan on doing more themes later, as the hard work is done now (photoshop layers ftw).
Let me know what other themes you want (Be specific, if possible)

I haven't had that issue, did you uninstall your old Swype first? Try that.

thanks! man awesome work
I could really use a green swype with mic also. Props on find a swype with mic enabled though. I've been looking for a long time.
And I would love a red one with mic. Also does this require me to have a beta test license? I currently use one which does not require a beta license - the droiddoes themed one but some others I have tried say beta trial has expired or something like that.
which release version of swype is this based off of?

Did that version have a mic? Where is that version? Link? What is better about it? Does it expire? I want answers!
Thanks,

I know there is at least a 1.61 version out there, but it doe not have a mic. Can someone add a mic to 1.61, that's all i want
Awesome bro! If possible, request for a inverted grey like in the OP with cyan tracer and possibly a little darker of a background? Awesome work my friend!

Anyone want Swype Keyboard?

Alright I think alot of us know about Swype on the droid X.
The beta is now open again, for all the android phones out there. It's realy easy to apply, and there's no wait, really, to get the swype keyboard. I myself abso-f**king-lutely LOVE it, because in landscape, the layout is a bit weird but you have a whole hell of a lot more space above the keyboard(all the better for scrolling and selecting your place in the text) plus, for me, even though i blazed on Smart Keyboard, im even faster with Swype.
You can apply for the beta here: http://beta.swype.com/
I don't know how long the beta opening will last. II were you and I wanted this keyboard, I'd go grab it ASAP. It's quite easy to install, by the way. Just make sure that your browser is in Android mode, not Desktop mode.(If it was Dolphin HD. YOu know what I mean, though, right?)
Screenshots coming soon, and will be on another post.
Here are the screenshots!

Here in a little bit I'll post one with smart keyboard pro for the screen space difference.
EDITSCroll down and I have set this up to display them side by side as if you were holding them landscape. A comparison.

yes it's a nice keyboard! I am using from 1.xxx beta's! but they should provide an option to enable/disable smiley/enter and mic button! etc...
otherwise usability at its best!

You should Update it. There's still no disable Option, but when Swyping there's really no need for it, as the space is auto entered and all that, not to mention in my version(the newest, 2.29.71.20203.t100), its not all that space hogging. The engine for it doesnt pick up speech that well on the X10. At least, that's what it's shown me so far. It gets most of it, but for example i said 'be' a few time in testing, and it spat out 'the'.
Also, in my version, there's no smiley key. I think they turned it into a long press somewhere. I'll edit the post after I check.
...Is it really that boring of an input method????
Well, I have something the devs might look at. The site says the keyboard is skin/themeable by OEM's. Not sure what that stands for, but it's interesting. It'd be cool imho to skin it like the sense white letter/saymbol keys and then the delete, enter, symbol and whatnot stay the same.
For anyone who wants it, I'll soon have a video of me using the keyboard posted.
Its been done in the past.

This is a new one though. The beta is back open. Notice, my screenshots are different.
I know its a new one lol i was just saying the skinning has been done in the past and the same templates work on the new one.
I have the newest version 2.29.71.20203.t100 with the skin in the link i posted in my previous post. Just took that skin and replaced the boring blue one with it.
Mind you my version isnt from the beta link above, although i am on the beta list, its from elsewhere with the checks removed. I just added the skin and signed it as the beta from the link wouldnt work even with just images replaced and re-signed obviously.

Ah ok. Could you show me how to do that?
First of all you need a working version (not from the beta link - obv) and secondly a skin which is in one of the XDA forums (cant remember off the top of my head), you might have to google it.
After that its a doddle and i will explain.
Once you have those or i will PM it tomorrow as its late and i have work in the morning. i will show you.
Not sure how to get those.

Does anyone know of any option to move the cursor easily between words? (Like stock keyboard magnifying kind of stuff)
Not sure what you mean.

I mean; a better way to place the cursor in the desired place (you can do that with new stock keyboard; drag in the typed words and above the keyboard another magnified bar comes up to make life easy)

Oh the popup? I never noticed there wasn't one. The keys are big enough for me. Hrm.... I can leave a post on the forum if you like

I agree the keys are bigger and better, but sometimes when you swype and it misses one letter in-between, you will find it very difficult to place the cursor there to key in that missing letter.
If possible, please leave a message in the forum, and let me hope it gets implemented.
Thank you.

If i remember correctly you can swype from the "swype" button to the sym button to get the arrows.
just double-tap the incorrect word and it will give you a list of alternatives.

If I remember correctly, it takes few clicks before it shows up the arrows to move the cursor. What I was looking for is something like SE implemented in the stock keyboard (new one).

What's that? I use swype obviously, though still ive never used the stock. USed anysoftkeyboard, then better keyboard, then swiftkey, then smart keyboard pro, then swype. Almost NEVER stock.
And it is possible to double tap on the misspelled word, too.
