Stock HTC sense keyboard is awful. I installed the ICS keyboard from the market but whenever I'm typing a notification comes up in the status bar. Is there a way to disable that in the stock US rom?

No, it happens because there is more than one keyboard installed and available. If you were rooted you could possibly try deleting the HTC ime file from system\app to see if that eliminates it?

Thanks! I'm getting used to the notification. Anything is better than typing.like.this.

any aosp rom will have it (like cyanogenmod)
fresh rom has it, if you update using freshupdater
i don't know about the others
hmm dont use aosp stuff.
i will have to look i think it wad vaelpak that was senseless...
so does that mean its a sense thing that wont allow the sideways unlock?

It is a sense thing, but on any 2.2 Sense rom you can remove the HTCLockscreen and the original one will appear in its place. It works, but you can't use it for controlling Sense applications (music, calendar, sense alarm clock).

You have a couple options. If you have EStrongs file explorer and root and read/write turned on go to /system/app/ and delete htclockscreen.apk. or you can flash the attached file. this removes the HTC Sense lockscreen and just leaves the vanilla. If you use sense apps like alarm they wont work properly so you should download an alternative from the market like open alarm or AlarmKlock

Actually the alarm will work as long as you use the asop clock to set alarms...
Just wondering if there still isn't anyway to use the vanilla lock screen to answer calls yet?
oh i know i can just remove the apk, but oh god i hate the Vanilla lock screen... blah yuck.
ok first thing you'll say is the iphone style is nearly the same.
nope, it isnt is my answer.
You can also use widget locker on the market. it has an option for iPhone style screen unlocker.
Widget locker.....

I installed CyanogenMod 7 after I got my Inspire, but I miss the notification bar task switcher which came in the stock ROM. Does anyone know what this switcher was called? Or instead, can someone recommend some other task switcher which displays in the notification pull-down? I am using TaskSwitcher 1.21 in the meantime, but I really liked how the original one worked (from the notification bar).
Thanks!
to my knowlege, no way. it is part of sense. And you cannot get it on cm7

Thanks for the replies, folks! I was aware of the hold-Home-to-see-recent-apps, guess it'll have to do as a replacement.

Check this out! HTC's own version of Swype?!
Would be cool if the older devices get this update! Won't require dual core for it, if thats htc's pathetic excuse again!
maybe？
oh it's crazy i think 。。for me。it never minds

As someone thats very recently learned to love the free (beta) swype application, I'm hoping that the htc v3.0 htc trace application gets ported to our device and soon

I wonder if this will be better than Swype and SwiftKey.
i donot need it ，but thank you for sharing all the same
Hello, I've searched for swype and HTC Trace in the market, but I didn't find none of them. What is the exact name of the application to install, to have the swype active?

From memory when I installed swype you have to get it through your browser on your phone and download it from their site,though I'm sure someone will correct me if my memory is failing.

You are correct! Download the beta for Swype from here...

You need to sign up to an account first though.

Thanks, but, is this something that overrides the default keyboard adding the swype function or is it a new one?
No it won't override, merely give you an alternate keyboard option. Its not obvious how to turn it on though so once installed, do the following;
In settings, go to 'languages & keyboard' and put a tick in the 'Swype' box.
Then in any text entry box, do a long press, and select 'Input Method' and choose Swype.
Nice Swype tip: It has a nice (hidden) cursor keyboard. Access it by Swyping from the bottom-left menu button, to the button to the right of it.

Some nice themed Swype keyboards here (although the cursor board is missing some keys)

Is there some keyboard that looks like the default one? (I mean the original one)
I've seen that these keyboards need to be flashed. Is there a way to come back to the stock one just in case I don't like the new one? I've seen there is some keyboard zip file here on xda, but I'm not sure of what is the stock one.
EDIT: for instance, I've found this thread. There is a so called "HTC_Keyboard_Without_Arrows"; I guess it is the stock one. Isn't it?

I'm not a huge fan of the HTC messaging app an I'm kinda missing the vanilla gingerbread one. Anyone know a way of installing the vanilla one without root?
I've downloaded the mms.apk but the HTC app is installed under the same name so you can't uninstall/update it without SU. Is it possible to somehow repackage it as a new application that would run separately?
Go sms man

handcent sms works really well...
I like chompSMS, its a really solid alternative SMS app..... but I've actually been using the HTC messaging app lately, I love the way the conversation screen looks with the 3D sort of threads...
Hi,
I hate the look of some of the official ICS apps..can someone help to port the 'old' ICS apps so that they can work on this? For example:
1. Messages (it was white and clean and beautiful, now ugly)
2. Dialer (i enjoyed swiping panes, and the dpi scaled right...now at 280 dpi it's distorted)
3. Calendar (the app was beautiful and ESPECIALLY the widget..lovely)
Nobody shares my sentiment??

Edit: Temporary solution found! I'm now using the market messaging app, with SMS POPUP as my notification source, and the screen turns on for the popup! Better than nothing, though I would much prefer the stock way of turning the lockscreen on and have the message in the status/notification bar. Thanks for your help all.
Just to reiterate: problem with the market ICS messaging app (otherwise perfect) is that when message is received screen doesn't turn on. Notification arrives normally and I get the ping, but I have manually turn screen on to see it. Tried making it system app but didn't help. Any other ideas appreciated, thanks!
