Can it be done? I hate sense but love the keyboard as the stock ICS keyboard is very small. Can I just zip the sense non arrow keyboard onto my virtuous rom?
There used to be an old IME mod that a guy callled jonasl made which was the HTC keyboard with a whole bunch of extras. It installed like a standard apk. no flashing required, which was awesome. I used it on my old froyo and GB devices but it doesn't run on ICS. I've been trying to ask people to port it to ICS, as I don't know how to myself, but no one has helped yet. if you know how, you can try porting it yourself.
Edit: Try here -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1594642 Works perfectly like the old one used to, but it isn't full qHD size yet. Thinking people are working on it.

Hello Ive been wondering if anybody has a 2.2 stock keyboard .apk that works on aospCMod. Im a big fan of it especially when i was running CM6 for my hero but now ive been having to deal with the gingerbread keyboard which i really do not enjoy as much as the 2.2 one. Ive tried many .apk files for it and none seem to work any help would be appreciated. thanks!
I don't have a copy, but you can download a 2.2 rom, rip out the Latin.apk and install it. Unsure if it will work with 2.3, but it should.
Here, try this: http://db.tt/ABhrG6I
I was wrong, I do have a copy, though I'm unsure if it is themed or not.

Ive tried that with both the aosp 2.2 rom and the cm6 rom. Just keeps force closing ill give that a try in a bit
I tried the one you gave me and its not working either. Just tells me it can't install, I always get that or a forced close.

You can create your own keyboard here. Just pick the options you want, the kitchen cooks up the apk. I've been using the same keyboard from here on 2.1, 2.2 and now 2.3.
If you need stock, choose the options to make it look like stock.

Well I want to pre-order my Sensation now (20th of June first stock on UK :O)
but something is bothering me.. I was in the UK 2 weeks ago I think (MUN vs Barca match :O) and I tried the Sensation on Vodafone and the Galaxy S II on somewhere else.
I didn't really notice any major difference, except the little uhm... "un-completely-smoothness" in both of them.. but that's usual if I understood correctly. (I mean not like the iPhone or something like that)
Still, the Sensation and in general any HTC device attracted me because of several reasons- one was the design of the system. (The lock screen with the ring, the bottom bar with the Phone and Menu buttons and all of this) and I wanted to ask:
If CM7 will come to the Sensation (as I saw in one thread here), will I be able to use CM7 on the Sensation but change the design to HTCs' original design? (As I mentioned above)
Thanks! and sorry for the length of this ><
When the bootloader of the device is finally unlocked, we will most probably get CM7 support. CM7 is an optimized stock gingerbread rom and you will get the standard stock android interface and design. You can't have Sense functions on CM7, such as the lockscreen and the widgets because it's a different rom (operating system, actually). So, no you won't be able to have the Sense interface on CM7. And there's no point in doing so - if you like Sense, just keep HTC's stock rom .

Oh thanks... thought there might be a chance
I think I won't keep HTC's stock rom if the difference will be big eh ><.
Hi guys (and girls?)
I traded my beloved Nexus S for a superior Infuse, and my only qualm with the device so far is that I can't seem to find a nice vanilla ROM. I just want plain Android, and HDMI support. I am sick of this blasted TouchWiz. Any suggestions/favourites out there??
I have tried the search function, but couldn't find anything. So far the best/closest I can come to vanilla is a CM7 kang. I don't like CM7. I don't have anything specific against it, I just prefer something plainer.

Hmmm maybe Infused. Yes I know its kind of old and it has touchwiz stock, but it does have the vanilla launcher. You just set it by clearing defaults for touchwiz, then hitting home and launcher or whatever it is called. The whole rom will not change, but only the launcher. Infused is a great stable rom, but poor gtg may not be coming back to update it for fixed hdmi when att ginger comes out.Other then that, I can not think of anything else except CM7 lol. By the way no gingerbread has hdmi except froyo roms and the very latest gingerbread leaks, which can easily brick your device forever with the new bootloader. Be careful lol.
Go for Infused 1.6. You have everything you need on this. But its Froyo, not GB.
The latest ATT Gingerbread release is very stable.
Cranky...
can someone make a sense 4 themed rom (or port sense) for our device?I'm sure a lot of people like htc sense interface
I am going to say no, that is not possible. You MIGHT be able to make a theme that looks similar for cm10, to sense, but that would be all that you could really do. The issue is that Sense is so embedded into HTC's roms, it is hard to pull it out, and make it work with our hardware, since the htc phones do not have one that is very close in hardware to any of the moto devices right now.
You MIGHT also be able to use a 3rd party launcher like adw and use a theme that is made to look like sense 4.
For CM10: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.BlackDub.theme.Sense4
Can ANYONE please upload an apk for either the multitouch keyboard from the original razr (if it would work on the razr hd) or the motoblur ICS keyboard that came on this phone when it was first released?? Please!
My favorite keyboard ever was the multitouch that came on the original razr, but i'm not sure if it would work on this phone. But i also really like the ICS motoblur keyboard. I've looked for hours and can't find either of them. They both had really nice features that i loved that aren't in the Jelly Bean keyboard. They were a little bigger overall, also the individual keys were slightly larger, and one of my favorite features was that they auto-corrected punctuation if it was placed in the wrong place. And in general I thought it had better predictions.
Closest i could find is the froyo motorola multitouch keyboard (that i didn't really want anyway) in a zip version that i couldn't figure out how to unzip and make an apk. I'm rooted but no custom recovery, so flashing zips from a custom recovery is a no-go.
P.S. Before this thread gets side tracked like every other thread i've found along the way.... I don't intend to sound condescending or rude, but i honestly don't care what your favorite keyboard is, or why it's your favorite. And i don't want a tutorial on safestrap and custom recoveries. I'm simply looking for the apk for the original keyboard, and i would greatly appreciate it if someone could help me or point me in the right direction
Thanks!
Why don't you just pull it from the stock ROM?
To be honest, I don't know how, and I'm now on jelly bean, so I can't back it up in tibu and I'm not flashing back just for the keyboard. But thanks for the suggestion, I thought maybe someone had done it already at some point.
