I'm not 100% sure this is it since I don't have my Nexus One yet so I need someone willing to test.
I found it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0dFh9RKsN6w&feature=player_embedded
This is the same one that's pixelated on the Nexus One. Also, doesn't stretch the full screen in landscape mode.
It is still the pixelated version. That wouldn't even bother me that much if the correction bar on the top fit on the screen and wasn't horribly warped.
Damn sorry then. The one in the video looks good though.
do you need to be rooted for this? Because I tried it using an appinstaller. It shows up in the clicker, but when I create new messages, it reverts back to the stock google keyboard.
You have to go into the settings and enable it, then when you're in a message box click the box and hold, then select "input method". You can alternate between the 2.
haha ya i forgot to do the "hold" part in the message box. thanks!
pixelated...but at least i don't have to switch back n forth for numbers and punctuations. can't wait for the non-pixelated version w/ microphone key =)

We'll need a high-res 2.1 SenseUI device to come out - probably need to wait for a Bravo leak.
Yep, works fine on N1 running MCR1.1 but pixelated. Will have to live with that for a while as it still beats the hell out of the standard Android keyboard...
Is the file linked from youtube the same as this file?

So I emailed HTC to find out if they will update the htc_ime.apk so that it will work on the nexus or look properly I should say. I am currently waiting for a response... let you guys know when I get a reply. I will post it.

Ha good luck with that. They won't update it until they release a phone with the Hi-Res Sense UI.
Most likely we'll have to wait until a bravo dump is leaked or another sense UI device w/ a hi res screen's dump is leaked.
I'm running HTC_IME on the N1.... its great to have it back, only complaint is the lack of the dedicated 'microphone' key thats in the default keyboard... so AFAIK once you install HTC_IME you can NOT dictate text messages and the like
Does anyone know how to edit the dictionary for htc ime?
I don't know about editing words but you can erase it by going into your settings > applications > keyboard > clear data.
I installed this and it works great but my only issue-request would be to add more languages. The option is there, when you go to settings from inside the keyboard, but unfortunately, only english is available.
In the past, people have made language packs...could someone do on for this? pleeeeeeeease?
Thanks,
Lou
I used to change com.htc.android.htcime_preferences.xml file to enable dual language on my htc ime. I was wondering if this can be changed in the apk before installing. I dont want to root my nexus.
Thanks
Anyone have any idea what that task killer widget is he uses in the video? Basically its sitting on the homescreen and kills the tasks with one click, no need to open an app...

Its "taskiller", find it in the market.
ah ha... all along I was looking for "task killer" thanks!
A ridiculously stupid question but one that is annoying me none the less. Can anyone tell me why when in this video the guy adds a widget only the widget itself comes up with a 2ndary screen for the options & not all options? ie. You have to press Desktop Visualizer to get all available options. Mine (Legend w/ Stock 2.2) just shows all options which makes it very cluttered. Any help appreciated.
Is this what you're looking for? I saw your post on UltraLinx.

GENIUS!!!!!!!!! Thanks man
Yeah, no problem.
FYI - while this installed no problem and did exactly what it was meant to it keeps Force Closing all the time. It turns out from reading the thread for the App that you have to move the app to /system/apps rather than install. To do this you obviously need Root access (which I don't have). I'm assuming this is the issue. Thanks anyway!
Yes, you have to place it in /system/app. I assumed you were rooted. It doesn't force close at all once it's moved to the proper location and everything. Have you considered rooting? I've been rooted for a quite a while and it opens up a whole new world for you.

Since I've started customizing I've certainly being 'tied down' by the fact that I'm not rooted but rooting for the Legend with 2.2 is not easy as you have to downgrade the ROM. To be honest other than having it for this & WidgetLocker customizing I'm not really that anxious to do it. Plus I haven't a fricking clue either!
Yeah, I know what you mean. They haven't created a root for the Legend running 2.2? Haha yeah, I had no idea what rooting really even was when I did it, I just wanted it. Especially after 2.2, my phone got...so...slow. It was ridiculous. I didn't know there were two recoveries either.
(there are two for the Droid 1)
Hello All,
Just a quick question... can the mini apps at the bottom be changed to use other apps? I called Sammy tech support and they said I'd have to check w/Google since it's built into the ICS OS. I find this odd because I've checked other tabs at Worst (Best) Buy and they didn't have this mini-app tray.
I want to use other apps in its place. I wonder why when you view the mini apps you'll see an "edit" icon, however, when you click on it, everything is greyed out so you cannot edit or switch-out the mini-apps.
Thanks!

I believe this is a TouchWiz feature, and my understanding is that you cannot use other apps. Only the ones provided by Samsung.

I don't have it in front of me, but I believe that lets you add and remove the existing quick apps. Also, it probably isn't out of the realm of possibility that someone could develop a quick app and it would appear, but I bet there isn't a whole bunch of people building these quick apps.

+1. I think your take on this is as accurate as it can get.
Give Apex launcher a try if you dislike touchwiz. I can't stand touchwiz.

Mini Apps is built into the status bar, not the launcher. it will always be there.
Hate it...i wish i could get rid of the miniapps, sometimes it pressed accidentally and bug my gaming time
If Olny some1 develope mini app for the notes that would be great for ppl who read and like to write quick notes, If Only....
install gmd gesturecontrol to hide the status bar
You wont press any mini apps accidently then. Also when you press edit you double click on a mini app to add/remove it.
You can remove them, they annoyed me so I got rid by following the instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1692173
Obviously make a back-up before deleting the suggested files if you feel you may want thm back at some point (not that I did )!

I just figured out I can make folders on my gsll phone in the app menu. (Not the home screens) I can put all the carrier BS and other app icons I don't want to see in there. It brought my app screens to 3 swipes from 5. Is that a standard Android feature or something Samsung added in with touchwiz? I would be interested in doing the same on my tablet.
That sounds like a Samsung Touchwiz feature. As far as I know, stock app drawer does not support folders/dedicated pages.
However, you can simply get a non-stock launcher such as Apex or Nova and they support app drawer folders, plus a multitude of extra features lacking in the stock launcher

That is possible, just use a third party launcher. I think nova has is
OK cool. I will check out those programs. I figured one of those would do the trick but wasn't sure if I was missing something. Thanks!

I've never used third party launchers myself, since I think that the stock launcher on the Infinity is rather cool
Soon after I bought the fire HD6 I quickly realized that upon installing an alternative launcher, the device would not allow you to set that launcher as default. Today I figured out a way around this issue and put together a quick video showing all the steps. This tutorial should work for all Fire devices spanning from the Fire HD6 and HD7. Before going through the tutorial I suggest you get ADB set up and working on the computer for your Fire device. Enjoy!

Following this guide will make it so you cannot use the Amazon Book app. A way around this issue would be to side-load the Kindle app. But not any Kindle app, a hacked version I made with a different signature and package name. That way your device will allow the installation and will not downgrade each boot. Download the APK below to get your books working:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bx_94ujbh0qobVBJbWFyVzNzeUU/view?usp=sharing
Now you will be able to access your books.
You're awesome! Thanks! :laugh::good:

Since Amazon "upgraded" the OS to Fire 4.x.x this has been a problem.
You are a gentleman and a scholar. Works for unrooted kindles as well.

Could you share what exactly you changed in the hacked Kindle app? AFAIK it's a pretty old version and I'd like to have a more recent one on my Kindle. Thanks a lot either way!

I basically just changed the package name and resigned it so that it will think it is a different app so it allows you to install it. I used apktool to decompile but had problems compiling till I removed some services from the Manifest file. I tried newer versions but could not get them to run without force closing.

I use Apex and I can not get it to rotate either.
The best solution I've found so far is the app "Ultimate Rotation Control". It will allow you to manipulate the display as you see fit and even set parameters per app.

I recently purchased a Fire HD 6 and this worked perfectly for me. Thank you for this. I chose to use Nova Launcher Prime as my default home launcher.

I forgot to revert to the stock dash before the last update (yesterday) and now I don't have ADB access. It just shows the device as 'offline' so I can't get it back to the stock dash and it's stuck at the Fire loading screen. It's the same in Windows/Ubuntu. Just a notice for anyone else to undo the custom dash before proceeding with the update.

oh god, you scared the **** out of me for a second - I had gotten the update but had never used adb since then. tried just now, and ... nothing.
but! then I remembered, I had turned adb off on the HD, lol. turned it on and all is well.
I am running Nova launcher, and have the real launcher permanently blocked, along with a few other things:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=58360063&postcount=5
maybe your problem is something else? (or hopefully, maybe like me, just pilot error and usb debugging was turned off.)
I don't remember turning debugging off. I wouldn't have had any reason to disable it. I just assumed it was reset by the update. Either way, I had to do a factory reset to get it working again. To be honest, the custom dash was mostly a novelty. I'm happy enough with stock. Being able to use Google apps is all I'm worried about.
No body else appears to have mention having problems making widgets on your home screen. Every time I place a new widget it, just takes me to the main setting screen and on going back home there is no new widget.
I have been assuming that this is something else that requires root, but I thought I'd better check.
Thanks for kindlehack.apkill give it a try, ps use nova beta for wallpaper
