hello, im using a magic 32A, unrooted (and generally untouched from when i just got it, cos im waiting for the sense UI to come out), not using htc ime either, just the stock keyboard.
anw, i cant seem to find any way to delete wrongly inputted words from my dictionary. and it seems no one here has any simple way of doing it. i would actually hv thought that it would be a fairly easy process, but then again im a total tech noob so i hv no idea.
help, anyone? thanks in advance!
There is no simple way to remove them in Android 1.5...
Anyway in the 1.6 update they made it possible to remove user dictionary words... So u just have to wait furthermore for 1.6 to come out and even more to 1.6 to be integrated with Sense UI
On the mT3G it's home screen: menu: settings: location and text: user dictionary. I'm running 1.6 now but I think this was present in 1.5 as well.

Does anyone in here know if it is possible to chance / edit / remove words from the XT9 dictinoray which is used on HTC's "keyboards" ? . I am talking about both userbased And the once's predifined by HTC.
Untouched unrooted HTC Magic.
If its not possible, does anyone know how and where i can request this feature?
i have asked this question in a couple of different forums with no luck.
unfortunately there is still no solution as far as accessing/changing word in the dictionary...still patiently waiting tho
Too bad really want it without restoring my Magic to factory defaults.
I hope they fix it.. Does anyone know where i can request this feature?
Waiting too...

Just subscribed to this thread as I also need to change/delete a lot of words in the directory.
I hope that someone will be able to fix this soon.
Cheers!
How about doing this with a ROOTED device?
OMGod!!
Ok after adding far too many useless words into the HTC keyboard dictionary when drunk, my keyboard seemed to be very slow at catching up with my typing especially. Sooooo, I decided to do a full wipe out and install a new ROM (the new European one)...
BUT!!!!...
Wait and behold, everything was wiped out APART from the words in the T9 dictionary!!! They had disappeared at first and the keypad was a amazing to use and kept up with my typing... But after a couple of reboots (no restore from nandroid or anything still clean) somehow they just show up still on there and the phone keypad is now sloooow again?!! I mean what the hell??! Has anyone had this problem?
Does this mean that maybe the dictionary is saved on the SD card (which I VERY much doubt?!) as it's the only thing that has not been wiped out...
Any ideas? Much appreciated....
ps. I'm using a Vodafone UK HTC Magic with the new European firmware (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=532902)
The files listed in this thread have the dictionary words in them, but deleting them doesn't clear the dictionary. Somehow the files are recreated with the added words.

So updated to 1.6
Idk why i just did
i figured i dont have any roms on my mytouch or its not even rooted so everything should work fine
After the update finished installing, i got an error in the home screen about touch input, it kept popping up every minute or so, the same message, and when i would try to text the keyboard wouldn't pop up, i would get that same error, so i had to disable touch input from the settings, now it works and i dont got errors
btw this is the error i got
Sorry!
The application Touch Input (Process com.htc.android.htcime) has stopped unexpectedly. Please Try again
but is there anyway around this
i really liked the touch input keyboard because of the fact you could add your own words to the prediction list and you cant do that with Touch Pal
thanks
oops wrong post
I'm thinkin try a wipe or maybe reinstall if the data wipe don't work. Are you sure its for the MT3G and not the G1? I'm not sure yet if there is a difference. I'm just throwin some ideas out there.

I have read that other people with 1.6 have been having the same problem with the HTC keyboard. So I think you are out of luck there, until HTC updates their sense software to 1.6 and somebody pulls the keyboard off their updated phone and puts it online.
The stock keyboard lets you add words to the prediction list. Also this softkeyboard will let you do so as well, and it should work on 1.6.

No, there are two. The HTC Keyboard for Donut was made available today:

And the other keyboard I mentioned definitely has the phone keypad and lets you add words to the prediciton list. I think it works for 1.6, not sure really...

Is there anyway to get the standard android keyboard onto a hero? I actually have an Eris, but I don't think that effects the possibility any. I would imagine it's only an .apk file, but searching google brought up nothing. If you have the file needed to get this onto my phone, I'd appreciate it very much.
Also looking for something like this if it's possible.
I tried copying the keyboard from cyanogen mod, but it didn't work, so it's not that simple, I'm afraid.
I would also like to know how to do this.

I can tell you now... you'll be disappointed with any keyboard besides the HTC keyboard. I even tried "Better" Keyboard (the quotes indicate that it's not really better).
I would be willing to give the Samsung keyboard a go, but the HTC keyboard is the best I've seen as far as interpreting your intended keys, auto complete, spell check, etc.
Definitely think the HTC keybaord is the way to go. Would hate to have to use another one.
SoftKeyboard.apk
I extracted this apk file from the AOSP source tree for Android 2.0.1. I haven't tested it yet, but it should work. After installing it, you should be able to set it as default somewhere in the Settings/Locale menus. Hope this is helpful!

Is it possible to use the HTC Keyboard on a Motorola Droid?
If so, does anybody have the apk file?
thats a very good question. The Newer iphone style keyboard pretty bad imo. I find it really hard to type on it and it seems quite slow!
that APK File says cannot install this software on this phone! HTC Hero 1.5 T-mobile uk edition

have you ticked the box to allow install of unknown sources in settings/applications

Sorry 4get what i just said i get the same error lol
Standard Keyboard
I tried following instructions I found that had me copying 2 files from ASOP Cupcake in to /system/lib, something like libjni...
and the LatinIME.apk+odex in to /system/app
And no luck I'm afraid, same error on how the keyboard could not be installed.
Anyone know if it's actually purposely restricted or just missing components that can be replaced?
I came from the HTC Magic and the keyboard is the one thing that I miss

I'm using something like this, it's something called "Scandinavian Keyboard" off the Market. You need to long-press a textfield in order to actually enable it when you've installed the apk. I suspect all you need to swap to the stock android keyboard is the LatinIME.apk from a corresponding version (of android).
The scandinavian keyboard is actually only the US ASCII layout with some long-press popups for our weird characters, so if nothing else you could probably install this too. Perhaps it's just relabeled...
framework
It seems as though the HTC_IME.apk has a framework check, so it checks either the android or HTC apk in /system/framework.
Maybe the HTC framework is preventing the install of the default keyboard?
Any developers willing to take a quick look in to this?
The android keyboard is in my opinion the better keyboard and it would be great to be able to use it on the Hero, would make the experience perfect.
i agree with the guys saying htc's one is great....it really is fast an reliable...only thing it is lacking is an option to erase false entries that keep showing up....for example i typed "aam" few times instead of "sam"
Okay, I know we've discussed this in another thread a bit before but it's really bothering me.
I do like the stock Android keyboard a lot, even though I have the HTC one installed on my AOSP 1.6.
THe problem is that my stock keyboard lacks a dictionary so there is NO prediction whatsoever (except capitalizing days of the week, lol.)
How do I install a dictionary into this thing? And where do I download one?
Can I download an stock ROM from, say, a Sapphire and pull the dictionary?
I could just enter every single word into the phone manually... would certainly expand my vocabulary to read the dictionary like that lol.

There are a few threads on this, do a search for Dictionary with the Posts option checked. You really just have to pull your old dictionary from the keyboard and put it in the new keyboard and it will work. I don't have time to write up the instructions right now.
Hello!
Sorry if this has been asked and answered but I searched for it and could not find any info, although I swear I read a post about it the other day.
Anyway, where can I get the HTC IME with the Text to Speech function? Im on Tainted Vanilla and want to add that IME to it..
thanks.
I posted this the other day but it didn't seem like anyone cared.

I took the HTC_IME keyboard with voice input from the leaked myTouch Slide ROM and to my surprise it worked on the Eris. The only problem I've noticed is the user dictionary will crash when you try to open it. If someone would like to fix it that would be great.
While I think you're better off with jonasl's HTC_IME mod I think some people may prefer this.
Download HTC_IME-vi.zip (mirrors)
Download HTC_IME-vi-undo.zip (mirrors)
Copy HTC_IME-vi.zip to your sdcard and flash it as you would any other zip.
Flash HTC_IME-vi-undo.zip to get rid of this keyboard and go back to the default HTC_IME.
I don't know what will happen if you use this on a ported Hero or other custom ROM. I can tell you that it works on a plain rooted ROM.

I cared. Used your link to jonasl and it works great. Sorry about not acknowledging your contribution.
Are you looking for the vanilla keyboard? It's here http://android.grdlock.net/ under the extra's section
I downloaded and installed the HTC_IME Mod and when I went to use it for the first time I got a security message saying that any text entered including conversations, passwords, and credit card information can be recorded and sent to the developer.
I am deleting it right away ! ! !

That's the default message you see when you install a keyboard. You'll see the same thing if you try Swype. But don't install if you're not comfortable
Ohh, I see. I am new to all this.. So this program can not capture that information then? What is Swipe?

What does "flash" mean? if i want to get rid og the new HTC_IME..how do i flash it?
Thanks
I can't believe an image with Google results for "white people smell" is considered offensive. Jesus Christ lighten up.

I suppose in theory it could, but the one I posted is straight from an HTC ROM and the HTC_IME mod has the source available. If there was anything fishy in it someone would've spotted it by now. This is Swype.

It means you would flash it like any other zip through the recovery menu. This is only for rooted phones.
