I now have no Home button. Has anyone experienced this? Is there a fix. A quick search returned no results.

That is due to the key buttons being mapped wrong, as that build is for the i9000. Will have to wait for a rom to be released for the captivate for one of the devs to fix this it.

anyone else try it out yet?
http://www.droid-life.com/2010/06/24/download-multi-touch-keyboard-from-droid-x/
it seems to work good other than vibrate dont work.. but maybe one of you fine people that know what you are doing can fix that
bumping this. Has anyone gotten it working it on 2.2 droid yet? Or any froyo for that matter
Works great thanks!
Im using it right now... its great exept for the red flash when you press a key
within the symbols screen the "&" key looks messed up in portrait. anyone else get the text spilling over neighboring keys?
Yes, I get that as well. Couldn't say why, but it's not a "deal-breaker" for me, I'm still going to continue to play with this very cool k-board.
Man! This is almost a win. It doesnt vibrate on keypress. For some reason, my thumbs need that tactile sensation. Hopefully someone can fix this.

i'd love to get a fix for this. as well as the tactile feedback when typing.
can someone try one of these out and see if it works for your devices? If not, I will fix the & key for the Incredible
EDIT: forgot link

There was a version of this that had the haptic feedback enabled. Doesn't work with froyo as far as I can tell. I can't find the link, but it should be floating around on the forums somewhere.

Yeah I know that one doesn't I made them. I should have said that, sorry. I am just curious to see if that will work on your devices, because my friend is getting one. Those have haptic feed back, fixed & key, and are skinned

I can confirm that the Bblue.apk does work. I haven't tried the others, but I'm assuming they will work as well. Thanks a lot for these. I really like the black with blue highlight one a lot.

No problem glade you like it. I would make a post here for them, but no point to double post. Just subscribe to that thread. I will add more when I have more ideas for it. Also anything you might want, I will make just ask in that thread
Great Keyboard. No problems with key formatting on my Droid Inc.
Takes up a lot of space in landscape mode. I'll use it for a while to see how it works, but on first inspection, it looks just as useable as the HTC IME.

Love the keyboards. Any chance you could make a fix for the & key on the one available in this thread?
I think that I posted in this thread when this k-board just came out. I've been using it non-stop ever since and have no inkling of returning to the original.
I've been using the keyboard for a few weeks and while I like the size of the keys and the overall function of the keyboard I'm going to be moving away from it. I've gotten pretty fast on the soft keyboards and I noticed I began making way more typos with this keyboard than the stock keyboard or a couple others I have tried. The problem seems to be that in my haste I am pressing and releasing keys almost at the same moment and this keyboard doesn't like that. It will either only pick up one key, or in my case usually just ignore both and pick up the third key. I noticed a comment about my issue in the Droid X multi touch keyboard post in the dev forum.
It seems this is by design but it is a deal breaker for me since I ended spending more time having to go back and correct all my messages so they made sense. If this can be corrected, I would immediately switch back. Hope this helps someone else because it was driving me crazy.

the 3 button issue has already been fixed.
and the GPS issue has been fixed in the leaked roms.
and the samsung rep is already aware of the issues and posted updates about them a couple times.

where has the 3-button been fixed?
leaked roms != official roms, and honestly my GPS is still not as good as my iPhail 3GS. Not acceptable yet.

Fixed? Uhhh... No. Neither have been fixed. There is no 3 button workaround for the Captivate yet. As far as I am aware, Samsung USA has yet to acknowledge th 3 button problem on the Captivate. And GPS is still not working consistently in JH7 so what mysterious ROM are you referring to?

I have no issues with my GPS
However the three button recovery will not work on my phone unless I adb it.
Also Download mode will not work unless I adb it.
So where is the fix?

Uh yes its all fixed, my GPS works fine and my 3 button recover works fine too, you got a LEMON!!!
It is interesting all the conflicting info out there.
I have been reading the GPS posts closely, and while I haven't counted, I would be there are more that it is not 'fixed' for than there are. I also feel that those who think it works fine for just haven't been in the right circumstances for it to fail.
But, that's good for them if it is fixed.

I would bet that anyone that says the GPS is "fixed" has used the workarounds. I wouldn't consider this a "fix". Or maybe it the Democrats definition of a fix?
Sorry to add in politics.

It isn't fixed and your comment isn't very helpfull. I had Samsung on the phone yesterday and today and in no way is this fixed. It appears that there was a run of phones that the three button combo does not work. The thread is somehwere on here and people posted the date of manufacture on the phones that don't have the three button combo working. Apparently you can send your phone to Samsung and they can fix it so the three button combo.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=778586
Here's the link to the thread discussing it, you can find the dates of phones that don't have the three button combo working.
Obviously you have the needle in the haystack phone while I bet over 95% have either the GPS or 3 button problem.
Got the update last night so thought I'd try some screenshots and it worked just fine, however today whilst in the messaging app I pressed Home and it took a screenshot, so I pressed it again and it took another. It was as though it was registering me holding in the power button too, which I wasnt. I had to press the power button to turn off the screen then wake it again and unlock in order to return to the home menu.
it also happened later on in the facebook app and I had to do the same. It's a rather annoying problem, as I then have to go and delete all the screenshots out the gallery too.
Anyone else encountered this problem?

Absolutely no one else has had that problem. It's not like many people have stated they have faced this issue and posted about it in several threads and/or started their own, right? You are a shiny unique snowflake for telling us about this problem. Thank you, for you have enriched everyone here with new and fascinating knowledge.
I came from a g2x where taking a screen shot us home plus power. I can try this with you but what is the key sequence on the sensation in oorder to screen cap?

Try pushing each of these files to /system/usr/keylayout and see if that fixes your problem.

thanks! the keylayout was the problem. saves me from closing my phone and using the on-screen keyboard for those keys! which made me sad each time i had to do it. ha ha ha. the zip isn't the problem, i've re-download the update a few times. but, if it were the zip, it wouldn't have flashed and get an error(so many roms apparently turned out to be incomplete, when i was "rom-surfing")
edit: i actually found the source of the problem, it was the "alpha3 trackpad wake and sleep patch" is there anyway to have trackpad wake and sleep without conflicting with the two keys? [:

Why would that be a common issue? Does it go away when you restart phone? Does it work in recovery and bootloader?

I didn't see it anywhere here on xda yet. So still the other questions, how about recovery and bootloader. Do they work there?
If they don't, it is a hardware issue and you should send your phone to repair.
