Hi, im on my phone right now so I can't really look as well as if I had my laptop, but I wanted to know if it is possible to for the evo to display a screen of just a keyboard and use that as a bluetooth keyboard to use on ps3 or if there is something that does that already can someone point it out? Thanks
Or maybe even use the evo as a mic

So there is no way to do this? This would be a really nice app if anyone ever created this.
There is an app named PRemote and it does what i ask i just can't seem to pair it with my ps3

I would be more interested in using a PS3 controller with the Evo like on the n900
http://gizmodo.com/5464531/use-a-sixaxis-controller-to-play-emulated-games-on-your-nokia-n900
but this could be useful too
Yeah i would definitely like the ps3 controller on my evo but i would really like to use my phone as a keyboard so when i play online or use the web i wont have to connect my usb keyboard to the console. Anyone?

Hey everyone. User, Lokifish, over on the Evo 4G forums ahs developed a way to use the Evo4g as a desktop PC. He fields requests to port his stuff as long as there is a desire for the technology in the new device's community. This thread is a petition I am starting to have this tech ported to the G2X. I know not everyone would use it but it would help me out a lot. Im sure there are other folks out here that would like it as well. Here is a link to his thread so you guys can see what he's done with it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1038840 Personally, my g2x is more powerful than my little netbook and i would much rather use the g2x all the time than have to mess with my PC. so please support guys. I love CM7, love Faux's kernel. LOve all the work you all have been doing for our device. Please just drop your name. say you would be interested so I can get Lokifish to port. Thanks everyone and if this is misplaced I apologize. I think it would be cool at the very least. Thanks guys!
hell yes this would be sweet!

Well if anyone can confirm this than i guess its a moot point. I already use LCD Density changer to give me mroe screen real estate. Would want to know if a pointer shows on the screen with BT mouse. Biggest thing would be implementing a windowed UI. that way we can switch apps quickly if using for desktop use.
That would be sweet. I am all for it.

Me.
I don't see which are the benefits of this over a PC at all.
I'm pretty sure CM7 supports all this already. I have a bluetooth mouse and keyboard at home, and a HDMI cable.
Essentially what you do is lower the DPI setting to give you a Desktop-like resolution, then on a monitor it runs just like a basic Linux distro. A good email and office application, browser, etc. Basic stuff.
(FYI-This kind of stuff is why I wanted a separate power/HDMI port)
Hey guys, I'm not affiliated with these guys in any way but you really should check out perfect keyboard free.. the height is adjustable and it has a split layout for landscape mode with the numbers in the middle.. I just ran across it today and love it! Its a perfect keyboard for the tab.

That is a good keyboard, I've tried it on my Tab!... I actually prefer to use Thumb Keyboard now, its got several different layouts and great themes!

Same here, Thumb Keyboard is the best on the Tab. It has good options:
- Split keyboard with numbers in the middle,
- small keyboard in the corner for 1 hand use..
and much more good ones.

I use a logitek bluetooth keyboard with mouse pad on it, it works good, but usually i'm not thinking it about using it, as it's easier to use the keypad on the tab itself.
Been using thumbkeyboard for a while now and it is very nice. Fully customizable according to your need and nice layout especially for tab user by holding it with both hand and typing with the thumb.
I have been using smart keyboard pro and its the only keyboard so far without the ddoouubbllee lleetteerriinngg bugz

I tried many keyboards but I returned to the original Samsung one.
I tried it too and its awesome but there isn't that big of a difference to the gingerbread keyboard which works like a charm
Basically every keyboard is better than the one samsung provides

Hey XDA community!
So I am new to the site as well as android (transferred from BB) and I recently rooted my G2X with the help of all the articles, instructions and postings on the site. So for that thank you all.
My first question for the community is: Which app makes for a better keyboard than Swype?
Now that am rooted and running a cleaner OS than stock I am considering doing away with swype in place of something better, faster and preferably easier. But since am new to the Android platform I don't quite know where to start and which keyboards apps are truly better.
No keyboard is faster than swype. Swiftkey is pretty interesting, 8pen is a fun novelty, and there are a few out there that add keys most don't have, but swype it's the fastest by far.
Download the beta though, it's so much better than stock.

I love Swiftkey. Not as fast as Swype but more accurate for the way I type. Personal preference

Its personal preference actually. I tried swype but didn't like the dragging finger all the time. Tapping is more what I like. But if you can get use to swype. Its the fastest. Otherwise go with smartkeyboard
Sent from my LG-P999
Okay, all good suggestions. Ive download both smart and swype beta and will give them each a trial run and see.
Thanks for the help!
I told ya!

If you want a taping keyboard, Swiftkey X is the way to go. It's got AI scripting that predicts what word you're about to type before you even start typing it. It learns as you go too, so it gets better over time.
I love it. I use Keyboard Manager, which lets me set different keyboards based on rotation, and have swype on portrait and Swiftkey on landscape.
smartkeyboard pro > swiftkey blah x

Here is a guide how to push the .apk:

Here is where you can find the .apk to push:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22603128&postcount=3
This is a topic that has been thoroughly discussed and you could have found the answer to if you looked.
dude, you can be simple.
Just find some JobManager.apk and push it to /system/app from any KJ6 build.
Since raver removed support from the framework though, I would suggest you push an older framework-res.apk as well. This will allow you to hold the home button and in recent apps, you will be able to hit "Task Manager". Otherwise you will always have to go to your launcher to open it.
@airfluip1: I linked him the .apk and directions.
Cool, thanks guys. I looked for a thread like this but didn't find anything and the search gave me random topics lol. Anyways thanks again

You should use swiftkey. If you don't mind touch typing it's the best keyboard out there.

You know, I use SwiftKey and I recommend it, though I kinda missed swype so I dled it (I'm already registered at their website) but after installing all I get is force closes. I guess VB final is really that different from official roms.
