switched from tntlite to vegan. I prefer the keyboard i had with tntlite. How do i go about getting it?
thanks!!
I'm running Vegan Beta 5.1 and the keyboard looks to be identical to the one in TnT Lite.
It even shows up in my services lists as "Tap 'n Tap Western Keyboard"
Did you replace the keyboard?
As far as I can tell, the keyboard for Vegan 5.1 is the same as that in TnT Lite
The Tap n Tap Western Keyboard comes in Vegan 5.1. You just need to select it by doing the following
1. use the seach button(the one on device next to the Home Button will do
2. long press in the address bar where is says "Search or type URL"
3. A window will open and select " Input Method"
4. Select the Tap n Tap Western Keyboard"
That's it. You should have the keyboard now

I have deselected it under settings / input. But it still tries to fill in bloody words for me when i am using a keyboard with all the keys i need! What the hell is it trying to do? I find it physically impossible to type anything without it constantly putting in random words!!! AHHH!!!!
Ok. I'm ok. Any ideas?
Haha no clue, but it does get annoying. I'll keep an eye on this thread and look through the user manual to see if I find anything.
Open the on-screen keyboard, tap the little arrow next to it then select "Touch Input Settings"
Clear the tick for Spell Correction and your problem should be solved
I've just been pressing FN + Space, and choosing "ABC" from the menu.

Thanks! Perfect.
I installed Launcher Pro and as expected, whenever I hit the home key, a dialogue box pops up and asks me "Complete action using". My choices are LaucherPro and TwLauncher.
I would like to select LauncherPro and set that action by default, but lets say I want to go back to using the default launcher. How do I reset that default setting?
Did a search, couldn't find anything, must be too simple for most...
This has actually been brought up a number of times, so I have a hard time imagining you searched much.
Either simply install "Home Switcher" from the market place or go to Settings--->Applications--->Manage Applications--->Launcher Pro and click "Clear Defaults"
This is how you would do it in just about every android phone, but since you're running the Vibrant according to your signature, if the exact actions aren't the same, find the way to get to "Manage Applications" and go from there
Hello, I remember that in the old day (with Gingerbread 2.3.X), when you want to launch the keyboard, you can hold the menu key anytime. However, unfortunately, I don't know why I can no longer use the same method to call up the keyboard with newer Jellybean 4.1.X devices. Therefore, I would like to know that if there is a way that I could do the same thing. If not, is there a trick or a mod I can use to fix it? Thanks.
I am using Note 2 (international N7100) with Omega ROM.
To be able to open it anywhere, you go into the settings for the keyboard and check the box for 'permanent notification'. It will then keep an entry in the notifications which you can tap to bring up the keyboard at any point. Or may be you can try Hacker's Keyboard (search in Google Play). Checking its Guide, there's in fact a section suggesting such a feature: You can configure the gesture used for this in the keyboard's "Gesture and key actions" settings menu. If the swipe action is too hard to trigger, try binding the "close keyboard" action to the "Volume down" hardware key. This won't interfere with normal use of the volume button while the keyboard is closed. Though this applies to "close": If there are gestures you can configure, it might as well be able to have one for "open". The FAQ may reveal some more clues.

How to apply PC layout?
Click to expand...

Instead of hijacking the original thread the above question came from, I'll put the instructions in this new one.
The Android keyboard (AOSP) (and the Google Keyboard, I believe) is capable of having a numbers row and being set up to resemble a traditional PC keyboard. For those who are unfamiliar with how to set it up, here's how:
Go to Settings > PERSONAL > Language & Input
Press the settings button to the right of 'Android keyboard (AOSP).'
In 'Android keyboard settings,' scroll all the way down and press 'Advanced settings.'
In 'Advanced settings,' press 'Custom input styles.'
In 'Android keyboard settings,' press the 'ADD STYLE' button on the upper-right corner of the screen.
Choose your Language. Then choose 'PC' for the Layout. Press the 'Add' button when done.
Return to the 'Android keyboard settings' page in step 3. Press 'Input languages.'
In 'Input languages,' deselect 'Use system language' and any other default 'ACTIVE INPUT METHODS.' Select the method that corresponds to the language you previously chose that is followed by '(PC).'
Back out of Settings, and enjoy your PC layout keyboard.
Hope this helps.
Very nice guide, cheers, I was wondering how to get the number keys to show :good:
EDIT - Not a biggy, but it doesn't seem to have changed to UK layout even after following the guide perfectly, the @ symbol is above the 2 and the " symbol is above the right shift key, that is the US keyboard layout, the UK layout is reversed
Like I say, not a big deal, just wondering why it didn't set UK up even though I have it selected

This looks like an oversight/bug by Google:
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=37166
If you want to try another keyboard with a PC layout, how about Hacker's Keyboard:
http://code.google.com/p/hackerskeyboard/
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.pocketworkstation.pckeyboard&hl=en
It claims to support 'English/British (en_GB),' and it even includes arrow keys.
I installed the KitKat Google keyboard, but it looked like the PC keyboard has been removed as an option. Can anyone confirm this; or better yet, suggest a workaround?
only thing that catches my eye from the kitkat launcher is the google search bar on screen (SAY OK GOOGLE) will that be later implemented into a zip for other launchers? i can always just click on the mic but saying that makes me a cool alley cat .
how come some nexus files/zips are able to be flash or install into our verizon gs3 without messing nothing up? time to time i check out there theme sections but dont wanna flash anything cuz im afraid it might brick my fone since its not a d2vzw file .
Chances are you won't see OK Google coming to other launchers from what I've read. Apparently Google made that and the Google now screen you can swipe to proprietary code.
As to the other, it really just depends. If it's just an app or theme you'd see mixed results. Just make sure you're making backups. If it's a rom or kernel or something, stay away.

You can have that same launcher, it is called the Google Experience Launcher, and is located Here. You no longer need the Google Search App from that page, as long as the Google Search App on your device is up to date. You also have the option of a modified version in the Play Store called KitKat Launcher+, HERE
When I install the GEL on stock 4.1.2, after pressing the home button, I was given the option to select what launcher I used. For some reason when I installed it on stock 4.3, I was not given that option, and had to go into the application manager to fix it.
Press the menu key, and select "Settings"
Press "Application Manager"
Slide over to the "All" tab
Scroll down to "TouchWiz Home"
Select "Clear defaults" under the "Launch by default heading"
Now when you press the home key, you will be given the option to select what launcher you want to use
When you first get into the launcher, you will notice that the microphone in the search bar is hollow, this means that the "Ok Google" function is not currently working. To get this to work, you need to
Press the menu key
You will see three options on the bottom of the screen "WALLPAPERS" "WIDGETS" "SETTINGS"
Select the "SETTINGS" tab
Select the "Voice" menu
Select the "Offline speech recognition"
Select the "ALL" tab
Press the English (US)
Press "OK"
Select the "AUTO-UPDATE" tab
I selected the second option, because I am never on Wi-Fi, you can leave it on Wi-Fi only if you are always on it
Select the "INSTALLED" tab
Press "English (US)
Press "Download"
When it is done downloading, the microphone in the search bar should be filled in, and you can now say "OK Google" to activate it.
As for your other question, it all depends on what the files are. If it is a system or framework file it most likely can't be flashed, someone might be able to port it over to work.
