Always backup before doing any mods to your device.
This keyboard should work on most Froyo Roms. I have ony tested it on CM-6-09282010-NIGHTLY-Inc.
If the keyboard FC's try installing the attached zip.
Please post the rom you're on and whether it works or not. So others will know. Thanks!
Enjoy!

Thx!

I installed it but nothing changed. How do I switch to the keyboard?
Nevermind after reboot it showed up. It looks good and works well on skyraider.

Thanks it works great!

ShadowROM. I had a multitouch keyboard already installed and was able to install this over it, if that matters.

In your pictures you have a button for smilely faces. How does one get that?

That is usually when you have a text client like google voice or hand cent up and running.

Won't work for me on Virtuous. I'd really like to use this keyboard, any ideas?
Edit: Got it working on Virtuous, had to install with root explorer. LOVE THE KEYBOARD! NICE JOB, and THANKS!

That will only show on some mms apps it depends on the rom your on. It will also show on a few other apps. Try gtalk.

Thanks for the share. I saw this in the X section this morning. WJD rocks. Works great on uncommon.

Well, after I rebooted my phone the keyboard went back to its default appearance. Not sure what to do to make it stick.
Sent from my Incredible using Tapatalk.

Works fine for Virtuous, just takes up the whole screen and it may be my theme, but I can see text input screen behind it. Besides that it works perfect.

Yes, not surviving a reboot on virtuous. How do we fix this?
Update: wierd thing, i went to reapply the file for the 3rd time and the file is just gone. Where did it go?

Works great on Ruby 1.1.1.

This works for MIUI, however the font is miscroscopic. Any way to crank up the font? Maybe it's the rom doing it...

Works beautifully with Uncommon Sense v1.0.

any way to change the color of the keypress to something... white or gray maybe? oh, and also i could do without the droid x eye, but it doesnt bother me much since i dont use the voice option much

Gingerbread Keyboard

Here is the gingerbread keyboard - mostly compliments of AndroidBruce. I got another version working from my own SDK - but it is really slow compared to this one for some reason. MD5's on the so and apk are the same ????? oh well here is this one if anyone wants it.
Flash as an update.zip - this was only tested by me on stock dk28.
To enable go to settings > Locale and Text > check Android Keyboard.
I had to go up to select input method 3 times to get it it show up in the list...
Known issues:
Seems that user dictionary doesn't work...i'll look into it.
Perks:
it's multitouch, and best of all its not swype (I feel a "Swype is awesome" remark coming)

Differences from this version?

I flashed it. Its just the stock android keyboard with multi touch. I'll keep my swype
Thanks anyways!

They got the Auto correct working. The only thing not working is the vibrate on touch. You guys should collaborate.. Thanks for the hard work...

I don't think this counts as an app or theme. Its a PORT that needs continuing DEVELOPMENT to function 100%.
Anyways, the other one I tried made me have to restore because its only for deodexed ROMs. I don't wanna install a rom. I like stock. Will it make me have to restore again?
Ps, I know you said its on stock, butdo you mean the .tar stock or acs rom (which is also considered stock deodexed I think...idk lol)

Thanks for porting the app. Hopefully, all features will be working soon.
I'd say that with this new keyboard, all of the custom keyboards are now largely obsolete. It also renders the hardware keyboard less useful than before, although it's still useful (I'm using the hardware keyboard right now) for longer messages.

windows phone 7 keyboard

Here is a link to something that I thought was nice. It is a windows phone 7 keyboard with the sounds included. It works great and i thought that i would share it with you. A description on how to install and use it is also in the link along with download.
I take no credit for it i just wanted to share it with this forum all credit goes to frostincredible.

remember to thank him if you like the keyboard.

FYI: This is actually a re-skinned HTC keyboard, which was the best keyboard around for a while... but it's been surpassed now and doesn't compare at all favorably to the stock Gingerbread keyboard, the Motorola multi-touch keyboard, or SwiftKey. The HTC board isn't even multi-touch, for example.
EDIT: Thought I had seen this somewhere: a much, much, much better option if you want a WP7-themed board is this themed Gingerbread keyboard (flash in CWR):

(via http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=746689)

I saw this one as well but when I tried to install it I always got an error about amend scripting or something like that and never really looked into it. If there is a way to fix it I would really like to try this one out. But I currently really like the one that I posted in the op.

Sorry how do you go about installing it in clock work? Also does it replace the stock one? I love how wp7 is so easy to type on but tried the op one and It didn't feel right.

I'm confused myself. its in an amend format which wont let it install. the file type was not used after android 1.5 yet this is obviously a fairly recent thread that this was posted in.

I did find a way to install this. you have to run it through a program to change the script but i forget where i found it at. I will post a link when I find it in the mean time try out google for the answer.

I did find a thread on the board for a program called Amend2Edify. is that what you used?

[Q] landscape keyboard

Is it possible for anyone to create a landscape keyboard for the touch screen ?
Sent from my SGH-T839 using XDA App

I believe some of the custom ROMs already have one, at the very least. Poke through the dev forum and see if you can find what you're looking for.

There is no current ROM that has this, it is yet to be seen if this is possible, as it wasn't built in by Samsung. They thought that there was no good way to have a landscape screen keyboard on our phones. So it would take a large amount of integration and work. Anything's possible, but as of now, it doesn't exist and is very far away if anyone is working on it.

last time I tried gokeyboard it worked in landscape. but it kept trying to translate my english into chinese so I uninstalled... but try this https://market.android.com/details?id=com.jb.gokeyboard&hl=en

not working for me , im gonna pm you to see if i can try to get it working

well, it used to work. you can see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15247397#post15247397 I was using it around the first of july. I tried it again today and I could not get it into landscape mode.
So, it USED to work, but apparently no longer does. Darn GO dev team for their frequent updates. (I think all go apps are some of the best btw, great/frequent updates)

Word, works and looks great thanks for posting. IF anyone is wondering, i used astro to install, then went to my settings, locale and text then deactivated my stock keyboard, and activated the new one.

Does the Galaxy S have the swype or regular virtual keyboard with landscape mode? If so, couldn't it work on the sidekick? If anyone would email me those keyboard apks, I'd be a guinea pig for that.

I still don't know how to do it I'm on the xda free app but ayoteddy posted it so great way on staying on top of things I habe the same one I believe
Edit: yes i have the same one just a diff color

download the apk, place it on your sdcard, then use something like Root Explorer to move it into /system/app.

I didn't think I'd like having the on-screen buttons, but tried it anyway. Turns out I really like them and never use the regular ones now. Also a good substitute since the hard buttons never light up anymore.

Looks really awesome!!! Can't wait to try it. Many Thanks for the great job you guys did.

The on screen buttons, battery mod, landscape lock screen for Evervolv p7 doesn't seem to have the landscape portion working? Thanks for posting these, they're great!

No problem man, just trying to do my part in keeping the EVO alive..haha

Man what you guys do is nothing short of amazing! Much thanks for all the hard work and countless hours (i cant even imagine) that you guys put into development.
Not only does this display immense talent, but the knowledge is incredible. Personally, what you devs/themers do cannot be given enough thanks.
I dont know what kind of background you all have, but I am sure I am not the only one here that is extremely jealous...lol, and would give my left nut to have the time, patience and know how to put something like this together.
Like some others here my Evo is close to 2 years old, but with continued development like this I really dont even feel my Evo is old or outdated. I feel for the Apple crowd...lol.
GOD i hope teams such as yourselves come to the Asus Transformer Prime side and show what it can do. Like HTC I cant wait for Asus to give us the key to unlock the boatloader.
Thanks so much guys. It may take awhile for this dumb a$$ to figure out how to download and install this properly, but I plan on loving every minute that I search and find answers until I finally get it correct.
Thanks again for giving me the opportunity to beat the crap out of my brain this weekend, and avoid the "honey-do list" around the house.

I can't tell you how much I'd appreciate that. I just installed a contacts apk that does that, but instead of the gorgeous blue gradient behind dialer, its flat black....ugly. would LOVE if you could figure it out.
I also installed the mod cuz it made contacts apk black instead of bright white, but damn, if someone knew how to make contacts NOT bright white, AND have dialer have t9 function....be forever indebted.

Here's a bit of a mod to add T9 dialer to Evervolv. I honestly can't remember where I got the files from myself, but they're originally from CM9's source (if I find where I got them I'll edit this to thank them).
Add T9 Dialer to Evervolv
Remove T9 Dialer from Evervolv
I tested these on my phone (Evervolv p7) and they work fine. They'd probably work on Deck's or JTG's ICS roms as well, but I haven't tried it myself.

My mod has the blue gradient behind the dialer (at least it does for me) but still has the bright white contacts. I think I could figure out how to change that, but I won't have the time to play with it for another few weeks . I'm pretty sure you'd just have to modify the Contacts.apk...?
