Hey guys, i know there is a lot of themed keyboards floating around, but they are either for the gingerbread or froyo stock keyboard. I know we can't attach .apks of SlideIT or Swype because of copyright laws and that they are paid for apps or trials licensed how ever they are licensed... But i have a paid for copy of SlideIT 3.0 and a trial of the new Swype as well, but i would like to theme one or both of them. I have no clue how to even begin to theme an .apk muchless a keyboard. I dont even know if it is possible to theme a keyboard like either of these keyboards. I really like both, i just got SlideIT last night but i have been using Swype for a good while now. They are just not the prettiest colored keyboards out there. I really love the gingerbread keyboard, its amazing, i like its compact/smallness look. And in aospCmod/cm7 with the theme chooser, androidian makes it a nice black/green... i really do like it... but the sliding your finger across the keyboard is just so damn cool, especially to be on our aged Heroc's. So i was wondering who could help me and/or direct me into theming both or either of these keyboards into a black/android-green, black/gb-orange, or even a black/android-green/gb-orange mix.... cause they would fit my theme a little better... and i think they would be really kick ass...
thanks to anyone and everyone who directs me in the right place or helps me put one together.
and basically, thanks to everyone on XDA, ESPECIALLY EVERY DEV on here. You guys are awesome and do very great work. You make my phone so bad ass its unbelievable, i love showing it off, especially to people who have better higher-end phones
Check out the android themes board. I know there are swype skins there, and probably slideit ones, too.

I havnt been able to find any SlideIT or Shapewriter themes... Which is sad because these work better than swype imo. I did some searching on the base Android forum and there are some Swype HVGA(which is the hero's resolution) themes

But the really awesome looking ones are WVGA only. If we could just figure out how to port the ones found here

or create something like it for Shapewriter or SlideIT
So I am a little new to the Android hacking scene, but I have most of what I need to know figured out.
My friend has an Inspire, and I loved the HTC Sense and the layout that it had, so I bought myself an Incredible. It was almost the same, but I really wanted mine to be as close to hers as possible. So I've been looking for ROMs that have the new sense version, and I've found a few that seem to work pretty well, like the ported version of the Desire (I believe it is). I also tried on of the Incredible S that was ported over, however that didn't work that well. The question I have is, are there any fully working ones? Ones with minimal bugs, and ones where the camera works?
I also have used the Warm Z rom which has the updated sense, however I am not a fan of the theme/skin that is has. Is there a way to change that? I do like that ROM, but I love the original sense layout.
Thanks for anybody who can help.
Before I get the hell flamed out of me, let me say that I'm an Android fan. I'm not too fond of Samsung, but I like my Samsung Captivate. I traded my iPhone 4 for it. However, as good as the Gingerbread keyboard is, it isn't as accurate or seamless as iOS's predictive text software. Is there a way to install the iOS keyboard onto my Samsung Captivate? It is rooted and running Serendipity 6.3 (Android 2.2).

no. iOS is closed source and porting anything from is close to impossible. there is however other keyboard software with iPhone themes, such as better keyboard if this is of any use to you .

Thanks. I've tried Swype and SwiftKey so far, but neither were as good as the Gingerbread Keyboard imo.

Just discovered Thickbuttons. I like it a lot. I have the Wildfire S and even in portrait on the smaller screen it works quite well.
can anyone suggest a ios-style keyboard....i've got a ics tab and hate this standard keyboard
buttons, too small and uncomfortable symbol button...
i tried swift k. but keeps crashing...
I dont often post however I'm increasingly becoming an android junkie and the Infuse is one of my favorite android phones that I've owned! (Atrix, Inspire, Nexus One, Droid)
Just thought I'd let everyone know of a sweet launcher that I've found thats very simple and attractive and just works!
https://market.android.com/details?id=info.tikuwarez.launcher3&feature=search_result
Launcher7 is a sweet Windows Phone launcher that looks just gorgeous on the Infuse's big 4.5 screen.
Has anyone else tried this launcher? I dont think it will replace ADW for me but I still appreciate good work from application developers!
Im actually digging it. lol i really like WP7 but love android way to much to give it up.
best of both worlds.
Hi there,
I told my mother to buy a Desire S because it had reasonnable specs at a fair price. However I feel bad about the Sense UI that adds complexity and small fonts. I have an HD2 with a Nexus One ROM and could help her much better if she had the Google 'customization'.
So is there a way to disable/remove sense? There is a known trick for the Desire that does not work for the S. Or is there a rom without Sense? I have not seen any in the dev forum.
Thanks,
Jerome.
You can just download LauncherPro or Gingerbread Launcher or any other launcher app from the market
But if you wanna disable Sense completely I don't think there's rom of pure Gingerbread yet ..
Launcher pro would definitely not do anything to simplify things!
I think something like the titanium roms that were available for winmo
6.5 et al would be good. Stripped down and simpler to use without Sense, also faster imo.

Well, someone can try to port an android from a non htc phone to this one.....
Thanks for your answers.
Actually I noticed some people compile the gingerbread launcher and post it on the market (there's also the gingerbread keyboard).
I may try that ...
