***[COOL]*** Samsung i718 Flash Menu

Here's the flash menu ported from Samsung i718, Its very cool & working nice on my touch.

tHANKS!! I've got a couple of friends with i718's and always thought the menu was slick. Great job and thanks again!

very nice, well done working great on my hermes

So we must have flash player installed on our device prior using this application?

nope no flash player. it seems to be an actual app

Is that how you spell "Organiser"?
Also, is there a way to edit the programs targets in the registry or something?

i dono yet. found this over at Ipmart yesterday though. I tossed it on my touch and my brothers mogul and its sweet. Even my mom was able to navigate WM6 once we showed her this. I'm sure someone will find out how to edit it real soon. Possible skins anyone???

Nice find!

i find that the i718 or something like that, looks really a lot like the shadow,
maybe tmobile copied it
o, and by the way, nice find, but the launcher doesnt look like like the ones ive seen one the phone

I've read a few sites on this phone now and the opinion varies a bit. One place I found that was good for expert reviews and real life opinion on the Samsung SGH I718 even had a few photos and the like which i found helpful. Hope that helps others that landed here doing their own research:->

This is HEX-edit job not a regeistry job.
windows\launcher.exe can be HEX editet for customizing.

Yeah, we definitely need some adjustments to this. I would like to add a clock to the home screen.

Some Questions
Some link in this interface haven't a workings properly, How I can solve this problem?

love this app, just wish i could customize it, or even just get rid of the dead links. would love just to have the messaging and favorites pages.

Yeah.. I'd really like to add my own menus to this.

The best input method.

Thanks for the heads up on this - I'm a registered user, but I never seem to get the email updates. Do they actually send them?
I'm liking this version so far. It looks nicer and has handy little features. The "More" button on word suggestions was badly needed.

A mistake from Cootek.
It is version 3.5 when you look inside the program when keyboard pops up (click on Option tab, then "?" icon=>Check version info.

Ahhh, I see. Thanks for the hint

Nah, don't use this one, it makes my device run slow (I have an Axim at 600Mhz and with touchpal runs like 200MHz).
Better try FTPRO from www.fingertouchpro.com , it's fast , cool and has more options. For me it's the best software keyboard.

LOVE TOUCHPAL - but when i type "its" my Orbit soft resets !!!!!!

Have no problem using TouchPal on my Cruise, which runs on 400Mhz chipset.
The 'Its' bug has been fixed. Redownload the latest installation file from Cootek website.

is that so? did you download the official release? or something someone else posted? because I've been using TouchPal since version 2 and all the bugs have been ironed out. I have caught 3 of the bugs myself and they were fixed within 24hours.
TouchPal is my main sip, I use it at least once every 30mins while I'm awake. 3 times I've used it to write 5 page essays on my mobile. it's capable and fast once you get the hang of it. yes, there is a learning curve but it shouldn't take too long to get it.
to get the hang of it I'd say the best way is to open notes/word/textmaker or whichever is your favorite and type random words that comes to mind. it's the same layout as on a computer keyboard. so it shouldn't be too hard to understand where each key is located, plus you don't have to press the actual letters of the word you're trying to write, pressing the ones beside it will work just fine. its text prediction is really good, you can turn off the text prediction if you don't want it.
however, the text prediction is pretty good at saving typing the time it takes to type words.
eg: typing the word "circumstance", all I have to type is "circu" and it shows up in the word candidates.
lol, it's word association is good too, if it type word "nasty" it will show "masturbation" in the word candidates, lol. it sure saves me typing time when searching for these kind of videos in WVD lol.
get the file from www.CooTek.com and remember to select the download for the os you're using.
have fun

This looks pretty sweet. I will try it out in a few minutes.

when i was untheming the jacmytouchskiv2.0 i noticed when i flashed the regular (themed version) that it had a black normal keyboard that typed in chinese. if you can find a rom with the english version of the cupcake vk you should be able to replace the chinese vk with the english one (well i assume you are looking for english but substitute english with whatever language if you are not lol) and it should work. i do not know where it would be located though. try pm-ing ccyrowski or cyanogen they should be able to tell you the location of it in a rom.

I don't know why you would call the htc one better... I quite hate it. The buttons are harder to press and it vibrates WAY too long. The default keyboard is much nicer -- clean and gives just a nice 'tick' of the vibrator on key press.
To install the default keyboard, copy its ".apk" file ("LatinIME.apk") into /system/app.

Standard Android Keyboard on Hero.

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.
+1

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
*EDIT*
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"

HTC IME with Speech to Text

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?

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.
