Droid X Multitouch KB for Eclair ROMs - Hero CDMA Themes and Apps

Here's a working kb that I know works for eclair roms (more specifically, it works for me on Darchdroid 2.7 (an AOSP ROM). If anyone is able to get this to work okay using sense roms, that's great, otherwise, sorry.
Just put the file into u'r c:\ folder and push it via adb
Code:
adb push c:\DroidXIME.apk /system/app/
I just added the 'q-ime.apk' file as well. This file is similar to the DroidXIME.apk file, but, in my opinion, it seems to have better response than the droidxime.apk file. It also fixes a problem with displaying a correct symbol in the characters section of the kb.
Enjoy

I installed it via Astro manager, but even though it shows it's installed, I cannot find any settings to assign it as the default keyboard. Would it have anything to do with it being the latin keyboard? I do see the settings for "multitouch keyboard" but that's it. Also is there any visual difference between this one and the stock keyboard?

It'll look the same or similar to the stock KB. The multitouch is this KB

Here's another ported kb, it's similar to the above file, but it has the ;amp problem fixed after I pushed it to my phone it works fine as well... Yeah, it's just another kb to use

I'm surprised it doesn't work for ya... you just have to go into the shell after mounting /system and
Code:
rm q-ime.apk
Code:
reboot
Sorry it FC's on ya
They both work just fine for me. Stinx they aren't workin for ya
I basically posted this for someone on IRC so they could get the apk easily. Maybe it's only functional for AOSP roms... dunno

Use it like a normal computer keyboard ie: hold down the 'shift' key while you push another key to make it a capital, then release and keep typing - works great!

can someone post a screen shot of how this keyboard looks? will this work with fresh 2.1.1. i am using the AOSP black keyboard right now along with AOSP messaging app and they both work great. someone please post a screenie! thanks.

is there still a space bar bug in this

when I do rm qime.apk I get Read-only file system. Not sure why. First time I ever had an issue loading anything.

use RootExplorer (find an apk) and use that..its better/easier than using a terminal emulator, plus, u dont need to remember/copy all those commands

does this keyboard have the spacebar bug where it only responds to the top of the button

Custom ROMs and Sprint Apps

I have a question, when custom ROMs are available and we flash them to our Hero does that mean we will lose the Sprint apps that came with our phone? If so is there a way to back them up and restore them on the new ROM? I am most concerned about the GPS app.
Can you just
adb pull /system/app/Sprint_Navigator.apk C:\
and then install that apk?

That would definitely work but there is no reason the apps should not be included. It's all up to the rom dev. But that would definitely work. That's how the Dream developers got the Sprint apps on the Dream.

This is what got Cyanogen in trouble and the C&D order. He was including Google licensed apps into his ROM.
Chances are custom ROM devs will not have the apps included for the same reasons.

Im not quite sure how the folder structure is for Mac OS but since it is unix this command will work:
Code:
./adb pull /system/app/Sprint_NFL.apk .
The dot basically says extract it right here. You can then look in the directory where adb is located and the file should be there.

Yeah man. I was pretty psyched to have these apps (which personally, I like) on my Dream. The only complaint is the fantasy option in the NFL apk doesnt work on the Dream but then again, it currently does not work on my Hero so I dont know what gives there.

So i emailed my friend the Sprint_NFL.apk trough Gmail but when he tried to open it on his G1 he got: "there was a problem parsing the package"
Do i have to root his G1 and use adb to 'push' the file to the G1 for it to work properly?

Well it should work. I just checked the dream forum and the mods were forced to remove the links so you cant get them from there anymore either. I dont think root is necessary but maybe it is. I would try adb or make sure he has install apps from unknown sources checked in settings->applications.

Yeah he has it checked, but he is across town so i cant quite adb it right this second. Next time i see him i'll see it i can get it going for him. Thanks for all your help!
Thanks for everyone's input I successfully backup up all my apps. Just in case. It was interesting to see the size of each app.
Just incase no one has stumbled upon it yet...

BlackGlassSwype (NO EXPIRATION)

I know there are 3(or more) existing swype threads. I KNOW THIS. I just threw my swype kb file folder from black glass into the full version swype for those that wanted a BlackGlass swype that didnt know how to do it themselves. Get it HERE. If any one wants a new color lemme know and ill put it up when i get a chance, so we have more colors to choose from.
If you cant get it make sure you hav3 done the following:
for those who are getting expired messages try removing all traces of Swype:
1. In terminal,
Code:
rm /data/app/com.swype.android.inputmethod.apk
2. In terminal,
Code:
rm -r /data/data/com.swype.android.inputmethod
3. Clear your dalvik-cache
I've not gotten an expiration yet, but hopefully this works for you

wont install for me through a file manager, adb push, or adb install
Yeah this will not install no go.

its always worked for me. Im currently using this exact apk in my rom. Not sure what the problem could be. You can always take the libs from it and throw them in your roms lib folder (using root explorer on an already installed system), thats how i make it work out of the box in my mods. It should just install, i normally use andro or root exp to install apps that werent included in the rom. Root commander works great too. I dont use adb for apk installation.
I tried pushing it first then used Astro to install

Maybe I got a bad download I will try again downloading it and using Root Explorer to install.

right on. if not pm n ill get it going for you. i have a few diff. copies,but this is the one im currently using. I had to mess with it some to get it to work with a new rom install(its a choice from get go) so i learned a little about installing it
Not working for me either... used Linda and Estrongs file explorers... neither worked.
Do you need a previous version of Swype installed for it to work?
Won't install for me either

Sent via the XDA Tapatalk App
The way it worked for me, I had to adb remove swype first, then download to SD and then use astro to install
Yeah im going to guess if you had swype previously installed this one probably wont install for you.
the **** doesnt install anyway i tried, i did have it previously, what folder do i adb pull from?
I used Advanced task manager to uninstall my previous version, then Estrongs File Explorer to install this one, works fine for me. Thanks!

system/app...you will probably need to list the files to see exactly what its named to remove.
adb remount
adb shell
cd system/app
ls
rm whateveritsnamed.apk
This is a developer site right? Well this is just an app install. I put it up to help ppl out not piss them off. Ive listed the best way to do it and it works FLAWLESSLY. Please do the following or listen to my previous instructions before threadbombing...This is not hard, so please calm down and try not to get upset. FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY
INSTRUCTIONS
​
1)REMOVE ANY EXISTING SWYPE YOU MAY ALREADY HAVE
2)MAKE SURE ITS ACTUALLY GONE(it can be pesky to remove)
3)DOWNLOAD THE APK TO SD
4)USE ANDROZIP FILE EXPLORER TO INSTALL THE FILE(i think astro works too)
5)ENABLE YOUR SWYPE OPTION FROM settings/language keyboards
6)LONG PRESS ON A TEXT ENTRY FIELD
7)TAP INPUT METHOD
8)CHOOSE SWYPE TO USE IT
​
And lastly if this does not work for you and you still really want swype i have a rom i just put up yesturday that has swype,android kb, and htc kb included and you just select whichever you want to use(no installing anything). Good luck AND MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU(im not a star wars freak, just seemed like the right thing to say)
​
Thanks, was missing my black kb, any chance we could get the micro black version? Mine quit on me yesterday morning

[PORT] Droid 2 Multi-Touch Keyboard [Froyo] UPDATE! fixed4!

Got this working on a recent nightly for cm6 (dont see why it wouldnt work on any others too) also, it will most likely work on any deodexed rom (odexed im not sure) -- Let me know what does/doesnt work and ill try and do something or point you in the right direction.
this should also work with other phones (so far just hdpi phones)
EDIT: punk.kaos got it working on all phones! good work! thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=764021
You must be rooted for this to work!

- crap, another &amp error, when holding the . key...fix coming eventually... fixed!
- < symbol fixed! <-- thanks for the help enragedpaza
- vibrates too lightly fixed! <-- thanks for the help enragedpaza
- others?
Voice input works too!
Back up your stock keyboard first:
Code:
adb shell cp /system/app/LatinIME.apk /system/app/LatinIME.apk.bak
adb shell cp /system/lib/libjni_latinime.so /system/lib/libjni_latinime.so.bak
FLASH (EASY) METHOD:
flash this from your recovery or from rom manager:
http://www.mediafire.com/?9yawjq9weakbl9y
Geo411m has made a black colored one. details here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7684399&postcount=211
install the same as the easy way, otherwise download it and pull the apk out of it and install it with the manual method
ENJOY!
MANUAL (OLD) METHOD:
get both of these files:
apk:
fixed4: http://www.mediafire.com/?7q0406gqazq8rer
(harder vibrate, < symbol fix)
if you had an older version, be sure to switch to a different keyboard, then remove the old LatinIME.apk before pushing the new one over, otherwise you will get fc's like crazy!
lib:
(you may not need this, but it shouldnt hurt anything (backup instructions below) and if the keyboard doesnt work, then definitely try pushing it)
http://www.mediafire.com/?awy84cz5t8ngx49
some have reported that for some reason or another this file downloads as a .txt (although it comes as a .so for me all the time) make sure you rename it, if need be, to libjni_latinime.so before going any further
you will need adb for this method (others have done it without a computer)
youll either want to be in recovery, with /system mounted, or remount it read-only while the phone is up (need s-off for this, thanks unrevoked!)
then push the two downloaded files to your phone: (in some roms it is called GoogleLatinIme.apk, so use that instead of LatinIME.apk if thats how your rom is)
Code:
adb push d2keyboard-signed-fixed4.apk /system/app/LatinIME.apk
adb push libjni_latinime.so /system/lib/libjni_latinime.so
choose your input method like always, and enjoy the multi-touch keyboard on froyo
ok, the screenshots really dont mean much, anyone can use gimp, but w/e thought id put them up there anyway

[Temp] Fix for missing apps on froyo

in your build.prop replace the current text with this: you can get things like tv.com back
Code:
ro.build.description=passion-user 2.2.1 FRG83 60505 release-keys
ro.build.fingerprint=google/passion/passion/mahimahi:2.2.1/FRG83/60505:user/release-keys
i would upload one for people to flash but as some many people are on diff roms/kernels it would just cause more issues then its worth best way to go about fixing it is pulling the file from your phone (or the zip from teh rom your on). swapping out the text and pushing it back to /system
all credit goes to Decad3nce for the fix

Then I edited the 2 lines on my PC with notepad++ and saved. Then I put it on my sdcard, remounted /system readwrite and copied it over to /system/build.prop and then rebooted.
adb push build.prop /sdcard/build.prop

Well it doesnt for me.
Perhaps a logcat? Do you have Swype installed? Any other keyboard modifications already installed?
This file replaces "libjni_latinime.so" in /system/lib
and
"LatinIME.apk" in /system/app
Thats it.

yeah i remember the same file is missing in my case...LatinIME.apk
The port requires Android 2.2 Froyo.
Works on CM6.1. Installed on G1 and on 32A Magic. Just use the one referenced by Ohsaka.
I think it's better than Froyo stock keyboard. I switch sometimes, so this is good.

using on tmo ota froyo doesnt work.. i got froyo but keyboard FC's
in the next MIUIcy update you will find
take it from my sig. just flash it via recovery.
delsadj:
i wouldnt recommend. somehow a tiny bit laggy.
if you get an error when flashing via recovery do this:
-extract zip
-put .apk in system/app/
-put .so in the lib folder (exact directory found in the zip)
-reboot
-fix_permissions
-enjoy
i have it on mt3g port and i t is now my standart it detects keypresses way more accurate than stock 2.2
Sent from my T-Mobile myTouch 3G using XDA App
nah i dont have swype and i tried through recovery, as if normal but then it FCs
how do you get the logcat? sorry for the noobish quesion
I miss the dedicated .com/net/org button
