HTC_IME for Nexus One [Pixelated Version]

http://drop.io/p12auxn#
I'm not 100% sure this is it since I don't have my Nexus One yet so I need someone willing to test.
I found it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0dFh9RKsN6w&feature=player_embedded

This is the same one that's pixelated on the Nexus One. Also, doesn't stretch the full screen in landscape mode.

It is still the pixelated version. That wouldn't even bother me that much if the correction bar on the top fit on the screen and wasn't horribly warped.

Damn sorry then. The one in the video looks good though.

do you need to be rooted for this? Because I tried it using an appinstaller. It shows up in the clicker, but when I create new messages, it reverts back to the stock google keyboard.

You have to go into the settings and enable it, then when you're in a message box click the box and hold, then select "input method". You can alternate between the 2.

haha ya i forgot to do the "hold" part in the message box. thanks!
pixelated...but at least i don't have to switch back n forth for numbers and punctuations. can't wait for the non-pixelated version w/ microphone key =)

We'll need a high-res 2.1 SenseUI device to come out - probably need to wait for a Bravo leak.

Yep, works fine on N1 running MCR1.1 but pixelated. Will have to live with that for a while as it still beats the hell out of the standard Android keyboard...

Is the file linked from youtube the same as this file?

So I emailed HTC to find out if they will update the htc_ime.apk so that it will work on the nexus or look properly I should say. I am currently waiting for a response... let you guys know when I get a reply. I will post it.

Ha good luck with that. They won't update it until they release a phone with the Hi-Res Sense UI.
Most likely we'll have to wait until a bravo dump is leaked or another sense UI device w/ a hi res screen's dump is leaked.

I'm running HTC_IME on the N1.... its great to have it back, only complaint is the lack of the dedicated 'microphone' key thats in the default keyboard... so AFAIK once you install HTC_IME you can NOT dictate text messages and the like

Does anyone know how to edit the dictionary for htc ime?

I don't know about editing words but you can erase it by going into your settings > applications > keyboard > clear data.

I installed this and it works great but my only issue-request would be to add more languages. The option is there, when you go to settings from inside the keyboard, but unfortunately, only english is available.
In the past, people have made language packs...could someone do on for this? pleeeeeeeease?
Thanks,
Lou

I used to change com.htc.android.htcime_preferences.xml file to enable dual language on my htc ime. I was wondering if this can be changed in the apk before installing. I dont want to root my nexus.
Thanks

Anyone have any idea what that task killer widget is he uses in the video? Basically its sitting on the homescreen and kills the tasks with one click, no need to open an app...

[Q] Recently used apps in Notification area - ala new Sense

Hey all,
Does anyone know of an app that achieves the display of recently used apps in the notification dropdown area?
Essentially, performing the same function that a long press on the home button does, but obviously eliminating the need to press a button.
I've been looking for something like this for a good while, and was pleasantly surprised to see HTC had included this very function in their latest version of Sense.... when I went to the HTC London meet last week .
Unfortunately, the HTC guys demoing informed me there is currently no way to obtain this feature for current handsets.
To see what I am referring to, see the video below...
46sec <---> 51 sec
Is there an app that exists for this?
Thanks in advance,
c_man

I'm more impressed with the extremely quick startup.

I think that's discussed in another thread - I remember reading its not a 'proper' power down, that allows for such a quick start up.
Anyway, back on topic...

Actually I have been looking for something similar... My wife has a mytouch slide... And when you pull down notification tray it has recent 4 now I haven't tried scrolling sideways like that guy did... But that shows that it is possible cause the slide shows 4 recent...
Just have to find someone to port that I guess

Rather than a port, which sounds like more effort, I thought an app to enable this functionality may exist.
It seems not?

its going to need a port i think, i would hope for a slightly modified version that would allow us to pin apps to it or even widgets a la galaxy s.

If you hold down the home button for a couple seconds you'll get a list of the eight last used apps.

smart bar does this an more. recent apps in drop down and/or favs and/or you can choose a certain app and/or many many more options, i cant remember. you have option to enable all or only recent apps via settings and checking off the check boxs.
i use on my a81e tablet and it works well. my long press of home button is buggy due to fw so this come in handy very much
here

Does smartbar have a big footprint?
Would really love an app that does 'just' this.

[Request] widget to open phone log

Sorry if this the wrong forums.
I'd really like a shortcut to phone log I can add to the static part of the screen.
I hardly ever use the phone to dial, just calling old numbers, is there any way to get this?
(Yes I realize it's incredibly lazy not to want to open phone and tap the log section, but that's why I got android, it makes it posible to skip unnessesary steps like this.)
Very happy if someone can help or know an app that does this?
Thanks

EASY!

Howdy Dude,
if you are running ADW you can.
1. long press on desktop
2. select add custom shortcut
3. press pick activity
4. press activities
5. scroll down to contacts
6. expand contacts, then find
7. call log(.callslist.RecentCallsListActiviy)
8. press ok and the shortcut will be on one of your home screens
it's prety cool it doesn't show the 4 buttons at the botom just the list on the screen.
you can do this on most launchers from the market i think. i use adw tho so yeah.
hope that helps.
Pvy.

Sorry, forgot to say, I'm on wolfbreaks 3.9.0 as of right about now.
You think it's posible to use adw with this rom?
Thanks
Edit, it does and it's amazing, I can even get a 100% clean home screen, very happy with this, thanks a lot!

[Q] Editing "pop up menu" to have only 2 rows.

Hey, tried to find this from different forums, and googled my ass of, but didnt find any solution. So:
I was wondering that could i somehow edit something to get my "menu" to have only 2 rows like in picture number one, instead of 3 rows on picture number two.
I think i saw this to be possible when i flashed some theme a long time ago. I really dont like cuz the menu covers up almost half of my screen
Thanks and PEACE!

Got the answer from he_stheone64 .
Im using Endymion 3.2 Rom with "Sense launcher" and now it looks like i want
he_stheone64 said:
You can control the menu layout in icon_menu_layout.xml in layout-port folder of framework-res.apk.
These are the important values:
android:maxRows="3" android:maxItemsPerRow="3" android:maxItems="6"
So change them to whatever makes sense for you. I used that for my 1-click Menu in order to avoid more then 1 click and increased these values.

Transparent film over web pages

I did not post this in a rom specific thread because I have had it happen on both stock ICS and JB. and CleanRom. When using Dolphin Mobile browser and another one that I do not recall at the moment, I will get what looks like some type of film (I do not know how to describe it better) over the web page to make it appear faded out. It does not happen everytime. Has anyone else experienced this? Is it a common occurrence?

It's called s creen. Just kidding. Does it go away when you press the Back button? Is it a pop-up that's hidden? Do you have it on other apps (especially other browsers)?

If you are talking about xda just change the theme to xda 2010 down the bottom left.

And yes my screen is clean also I will have to check out the back button. How does one check for hidden pop-ups?

Should have done a multi quote, my bad. But yes it does occure a lot with xda, so I followed you suggestion. Will see what happens.

I've noticed this too on a site I visit, it's really annoying.

I have that as well, using the Stock Browser. Doesn't happen in Chrome (at least it didn't the last time I checked). On XDA it disappears if you either change the theme or press quick reply. A little annoying, but I can live with it.
