[New] c_shekhar PCM KB skin with smileys - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Here's my PCM Human Keyboard. The keyboard has Symbol pad's fully integrated into it.
By holding down letters keys , you'd be able to get the capital letters. For example, holding down "a" will show all the "A" and so on.
Holding down "123#?" will show all the symbols including the smileys.
Holding down "shift" shall also show you the smileys.
Holding down "." gives you ","
Holding down "+" gives you "-".
The keyboard is based on the English layout. If you native language is not English, then you have to change the layout lines accordingly for you commonly use. Everything else should work regardless of the base layout.

WOW very good work shekhar..Keep it UP

You dont need to as I feel. Because when you long press "." you get ",". Similarly for longpress "+" you get "-".
I have edited the first post accordingly.

"Best Of" PCM Keyboard skin / layout

I though I would start a new thread as my previous thread had a lot of great ideas that have lead to this new version.
Please read the other thread for background on this skin and other versions:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=349647
This layout and skin were developed from many other skins and layouts I have come across or created. Primarily it is based on the iPhone look, but uses similar buttons to the RescoPro keyboard.
You can see all the layout features (pop ups) from the screen shots. I tried to put commonly used characters or key combinations to pop up from the comma, space and period keys.
To install this version, you need to have the latest version of PCM Keyboard (link in my other thread) and you need to select both the Eng 2many layout AND 2many skin, in the settings of PCM Keyboard. A soft reset is sometimes necessary, once you have set both layout and skin for the layout to function.
Looks cool. I like it. Thanks for your work!
Agreed. Looks great.
Nice, I like it.
As I am French, I put my layout... French with many symbols...
Nice! The best iPhone-like keyboard I've seen yet...been waiting for a while to find something like this. Thanks a bunch man!

There is a dedicated period key or if you press and hold the space key you will get a period and a space. I find both of these faster than my iPhone.

hey i just installed it on my touch. the keyboard looks and feels awesome. however i dont get the period when i hold on to the space key nor do i get the most commonly used symbols when i hold the comma key. what am i doing wrong?
You have to make sure you set the keyboard skin AND skin for the hold keys to work.
Great skin -- been my most used for a while now. Very easy to hit and it looks great!
This is very, very good. I like using this a lot.
I tried out the iphone the other day in a shop and had a go with the keyboard. There was no trouble hitting the keys but the screen was very hard. I like the "give" on the wm phones. I think this keyboard (esp for the screen size) is actually a bit better than the one on the iPhone.
Well done!

Didn't work for me either until after a soft reset...
You always want to select the skin then change the layout. Even if you end up changing the layout to another one and then back to the one you had selected. A soft reset works to.
This is outstanding work and has made my new HTC Touch Cruise much more enjoyable and efficient to use. Thank you very much!
Can you recommend a good finger friendly task switcher? I'd like to be able to swap between apps with the push of one button. The HTC task switcher requires you to go to the Today screen first and is not finger friendly. I also installed Task Manager. While a great application, it doesn't serve well as just a task switcher. Ideas?

You may want to try the HTC enlarged start menu. While not designed as task switcher, if you press the start key it gives you icons for the last five applications you have launched (or have open).
Hi Romuald
yr Fr2many keyboard should be better if you put back the coma key (,) on the left of the space key

PCM Keyboard VGA Diamond Skin

I don't know about you people, but I was so used to the automatic spelling correction of PCM Keyboard, that I found the Manila full querty to be a real step backwards. I also don't like the way the letter pop-up preview is actually covered by the fingers used to press the keys.
The only problem with PCM Keyboard, so far, has been the lack of a good VGA skin for it, so here is a Diamod themed skin I made for version .14 (the latest stable version).
The actual keyboard software is free and can be downloaded here: PCM Keyboard
-------------------------------------------------
Edit: I am also including my own layout, for those interested. You have to place it in the PCM Keyboard folder and select it from the options. here's what it does:
1. holding down the apostrophe brings up accented letters etc.
2. holding down the quote brings up the rest of accented letters etc.
3. holding down the 123 key brings up useful punctuation.
See thumbnails for details.
Looks good... would it be possible for you to post a landscape image?
Thanks.

You could just pop up the keyboard in Opera landscape... or try the new Gyrator2 app that just got released.
Well, I started using your skin and I love it.
I really like the keypad style number layout. Works so much better for me than the qwerty "numbers in a straight line" layout.
Also, this is the best landscape keyboard layout I have seen. I replaced Touchpal because the landscape is not so hot. Now that Gyrator is working on my phone I needed a good landscape keyboard.
I can type so much faster now.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

What you are talking about is affected by the keyboard layout file, not the skin. Look in the PCM Keyboard folder on your touch pro and you will see a file like "english.layout" or whatever you chose as your layout.
Open that up in notepad and change the keys to whatever you want. There is a lot of information on the PCM Keyboard site linked in the first post regarding layout customization. The skin will adapt itself to whatever you do with your layout file.
To place the comma and period on the sides of the spacebar as in my thumbnails change your "keyboard_layout_1=" in your file to:
Code:
keyboard_layout_1=qwertyuiop\nasdfghjkl'\n\2zxcvbnm\B\B\n\M\M, .\N\N
very nice !!!
thanks
I decided to include my custom layout. It's English, though it does have a ton of special letters and symbols. The numbers pad is pretty complete as well.

Edan, I am interested in changing the "123" button to "abc" when on the number screen (a technicality, but would look nice). Just wondering if this can be edited in the layout file or if it is theme specific.
Also, have you tried your skin on the .15 version of PCM? I noticed they have more customization options in that version.
Thanks.

I have managed to create a new key with an ABC button. The real problem lies in assigning an action (switch layout to layout 1) in the .ini file.
Almost everything related to customizing version .14 has been removed from the site. So, it's a little hard now... unless we can get some tips from the author.
Version .15 is not even beta stage, and is extremely unstable on the diamond. It's really just a big mess at the moment... not worth the headaches...

Yeah, I noticed they still claim .14 is the stable version but the tutorial is for .15. I wasn't able to get much further than changing a couple symbol keys in the layout file.
Anyway, thanks again for the great skin and please keep us updated if you make any changes.

Some problem. After like 2 minutes of use, my diamond crashed (really badly with numerous report error windows popping up). Some of the keys were not showing and some of the keys showed gibberish (some nonsense chinese words) - check out the first screenshot.
I believe it's because of the encoding when the layout files (both English layout and the one OP made) is saved. I tried opening the layout file in notepad and lots of the key assignments were gibberish. So, I tried opening it in Word and found out the original file was saved with Turkish Windows encoding. I opened it in the right encoding (so that all the keys were shown correctly) and then saved it back with unicode encoding. Then I put the revised file back to the PCM folder and it did wonders - check out the second screenshot.
So, an advice. If you find the keyboard is not showing what should be shown. Check out the .layout file that the OP posted and try modifying it and save it with another encoding (can be done in Word but not notepad). For my case (diamond with English ROM), unicode works for me.
I have attached the modified layout file (saved with unicode encoding). You can try this one if the original one doesn't work for you. No guarantee though.
I tried using the Diamond skin but the period and comma buttons are missing on the keyboard? I have to press the "123" to access the symbols keyboard. Can someone help please?

Please read this thread. All the answers are here already.
Oops. completely missed that part. Sorry and thanks for the skin!
Edan, have you considered doing a PCM Contacts skin? VGA ones are hard to come by.

No more predictive input for names?

Hi all, not sure if I'm the only one with this problem. Initially, when creating new SMSes, under the "To", when i start to key in the first few alphabets of the contact's name, the suitable names that begin with those few letters will be displayed at the top of the keypad for me to choose, so i don't have to key in the whole name. But i notice that recently, i have to key all the alphabets of the name, before it appears at the top of the keypad for me to choose? I never install any new programs before this happened so i doubt it's a clash of software. Anyone has this same issue as me?
yeah, there seem to be a problem with the hd.. i use the classic windows keyboard and it did not show up earlier.
so i followed some guys instructions with some registry edits and its working alright now. but the large qwerty of htc still has the problem. i dont use it so its no biggy for me as long as my classic keyboard works.
and on the large qwerty, i noticed that it showed up the suggestions as soon as u hit backspace after u write the first two or three letters of the name. for example, if u wrote 'smit' and hit backspace, it would show up 'smith 7906561' on the suggestion list..
this is what happens to me on the large qwerty.. check whether it happens on urs.. and if ur using the classic keyboard, i'd post the registry edits i made.. goodluck!

I think you guys have the same problem as the Touch Pro - it's T9 getting in the way. If you disable T9 then you can use other keyboards (there's a new shiny black on in the Blackstone forums) and get predictive text working properly or use the Full QWERTY keyboard which will likely work with a few kinks. Here's a long but detailed article on what to do to fix it and what you gain and lose: http://www.fuzemobility.com/?p=1527
since the Pro and HD have the same software and are similar on hardware I'm presuming this is exactly the same issue.
here you go op this works

[CAB] [10 MAY 10] SoftTouch MaxKey Keyboard: Now More Languages Supported

[Update May 10 2010:]
Huge thanks to Soul72 for adding other language support to MaxKey:
- English
- Italian
- German
- Norwegian
- Hungarian
Just follow the instructions below, but download the file below ending in "multilanguage." The other version just has English.
[Original Post:]
Ready for a screen keyboard that's easier to type on? This is a reconfiguration of the fabulous FingerKeyboard 2.1, so all respect to Exidler and Rozenthal. I have maximized the size of the keys as much as possible, focusing on keeping the edge keys further in given that protective cases may make these inaccessible. I also made the symbol keys much more standard (no longer 10 types of smiley faces!!! ) Moving the p and q up is a bit unorthodox, but I think you'll be pleased with the result.
PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING BEFORE INSTALLING:
- You must have FingerKeyboard 2.1 installed for this to work
- FingerKeyboard must be installed on your device, NOT on the card
- The file that does not say "multilanguage" is is only for ENGLISH
- You can close MaxKey by pressing and holding the spacebar
- The attached cab also installs the X1 SoftTouch tweak to maximize your screens responsiveness, for best keyboard performance
- At the moment, uninstalling this requires a few steps that are relatively simple:
- - - Uninstall "Paco SoftTouch MaxKey 0.1" under Settings/System/Remove Programs
- - - Rename /Program Files/FingerKeyb/skin-02-wvga-port-01-eng-bak.txt to skin-02-wvga-port-01-eng.txt
- - - Move skin-02-wvga-port-01-eng.txt to /Program Files/FingerKeyb/Skins
- - - Next time you RE-select FingerKeyb in the SIP selector, the regular key configuration should be back
Install directions:
1. Install FingerKeyboard 2.1 to your device (not card!)
2. Download and install the SoftTouch MaxKey cab that is attached at the bottom of this post
3. Open the SIP selector which is the tiny triangle to the right of the keyboard selector in the middle of the bottom menu bar
4. Select FingerKeyb, and the MaxKey keyboard configuration should appear
5. To unistall, see above
If there is interest in this, I can try to keep developing for other languages and to make improvements based on suggestions. Donations would be highly appreciated.
Donate

Exidler and Rozenthal for FingerKeyboard
Fards for teaching me how to make cabs
ChangeLog:
0.1 - First release
0.2 - Fixed the " and ? keys; slight tweak to symbols layout

Sorry, what do you mean by "compact qwerty?" Do you mean fewer rows of keys, like 4 rows instead of 5?
finger keyboard does not support compact qwerty(yet at least)
thats great ring-bearer....i ll give it a shot
btw from where u got that cool battery icon on top?
Compact qwerty would be nice, but I think it would probably conflict with the FingerKeyboard2 keymap, since a compact qwerty only has 12 buttons.
If you don't know how a compact qwerty looks like, take a look at an old mobile phone without touch screen or hardware keyboard and notice that the function of every key carries a number of letters, that you get by pressing various numbers of times. For example; I want to write "C". I press the number 2 three times, and the C appears.
I think it would be possible for someone to make a compact qwerty, since there is one in the new Touch Pro 2's and Diamond 2's. Also, if you look at the Xperia default dialer (or any dialer for that matter), there are 3 to 4 letters on every key - there's your ready made compact qwerty. Of course I don't know anything about making this myself, I'm just looking at the posibilities of someone making it.

Good pickup - thanks a lot. I have uploaded a fixed version to the first post:
SoftTouch_MaxKey_0.2
Ah, looks like I was confused about the names - what I meant before was ''Phone Keypad'' and you can get this with EzInput so nevermind
Anyways, is it possible to get swedish? The only difference is that long press on J gets an Å, long press K gets you an Ä and L gets you Ö. That would be great!
this is most amazing keypad out there!
keypad vey responsive!
can i request something?
is it possible to remove the page up down etc.
on "EN" coz' you know in xperia they have some sort of a mouse to scroll
so that there will be more space for a key! very usefull if there will more space to press a single key.
and some character in the third row and so fort have minimal spacing
maybe it can help if you can try to edit this?
but you know this proram works well for me is just maybe you can do
enhance it for x1 users? thank you in advance!!! nice work

Yeah, I can try to do something like that. I also want to work on the placement of the 'enter' and 'backspace' keys because they aren't optimal right now. But the main problem for me was the size of the qwerty keys, and those are now as big as they can get without inventing a whole new layout. But I agree that those directional buttons are not highly needed. I also still want to develop for the other languages people requested, but it may be a couple of months because real life is crazy busy for a while.
I could also try to make a SIP much more tailored to the X1 from the ground up. My C++ skills aren't great though but if anyone wants to PM me the 'dvoraksip.sln' code that comes with the Windows Mobile Version 5.0 SDK, I could probably modify that. I just don't have the SDK or the example code that comes with it. Anyone?
Thnx for the keyboard.. Its just made my XPERIA perfect!
But I have a question.. When I open the keyboard on my phone, the bottom bar dissappears.. Is this something you programmed it to do, to maybe give larger screen above the keyboard, or it something wrong with my config?
This layout isn't very nice. I prefer a normal qwerty layout.

Hey, thanks for the feedback. To answer your question:
No, I didn't program that feature in. That is a changeable feature of FingerKeyboard. Just go to programs/fingerkeyboard/options then change Portrait from "Hide bar" to "Show bar."
You'll be all set!

Samsung Keyboard ECR-K10D @-Problem

Anyone knows how i could do a @ with the keys of the samsung keyboard ECR-K10D?
It doesnt have a key for it and i dont know any keyboard combination?
Thx for answer ... and @samsung ... what do u think, that people dont need the @? Lol
J.
I can't say for the QWERTZ keyboard, but on the UK QWERTY keyboard @ is pretty much in the same position as it is on my laptop - just above and slightly to the left of the right hand shift key.

Hmm, i will send a photo. Could it be, that the qwertz keyboard doesnt have this key? ok, if this stupid thing is reality. .. is there any app in the market, which let me change the keys on the samsung ecr-k10d keyboard?
I will attach a photo of my qwertz-version of the keyboard.
thx for more answers.

Where is @ on your "soft" QWERTZ keyboard?
Regards,
Dave
I have to hold the ".,?" key, to get the small popup windows with a @ in it. Or the "123" button opens a small popup, with the @ inside.
Any ideas?
When all else fails, read the manual.
@Paten ... verry funny hint. I allready read it, before i post anything. So, is there way to change the assignments of the keyboard?
Thx
Have you tried holding shift while hitting every key to see if one is the @ symbol? If shift doesn't work, try ctrl and alt as well.
Hm, no way. I've tried every combination, every key with Shift and CTRL. The keyboard dont have an alt-key. It looks, like samsung got a big plan, what comes after the internet...
or the hole qwertz-team is a gang of idiots...

well before thrashing on samsung and the team, its already weird enough on QWERTZ using pop up to get the @
how bout your original QWERTZ keyboard on computer maybe, how to get the @?
or maybe you can ask samsung center directly who sells it, and they can ask their technician to give you the proper answer
I got the UK version today and it has the @ button.
What a fantastic keyboard btw !!
Glad i read this topic

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
For me using the QWERTY Keyboard from Samsung the SHIFT-2 (like a normal US keyboard and how it's labeled on the samsung keyboard) gives me a double qoute (")... So I tried using the SHIFT-" (double quote key) and it gives you the @ key that you are looking for.
So it looks like the keys are reversed.
