Has anyone been able or tried to install the HTC_ime keyboard onvy froyo add get it to work ? When I installed it I got a force close loop.

Only the 1.5 version of the HTC_IME keyboard works with the 2.2 ROM. Unfortunately, the voice input does not work since it is only the 1.5 version. This is the version that works.

There are two .apk to install and both are in the zip file... with the time spent posting that question you could have just opened it and found out what was inside
I use ShapeWriter and it works perfectly.

@derekwilkinson - i dont think it was necessary for you to get smart all i did was ask a simple question b/c i didnt know. being the smart ass you seem to be you should have realized i didnt know i was supposed to unzip it until i realized the flash failed and said it wasnt working !
Use a file explorer like Astro to open the .zip. You should get an option to open with app manager (or something along those lines ha ha) and you should be able to install.

pushing necessary lib files will enable farther versions of the IME keyboard to work, you still dont get voice recognition to work but the keyboard is there.

Yes, you can now download the Rom manager from the Market, and the rest of the procedures are pretty much automated after that. Its quite simple.
I am running CyanogenMod-5.0.8 on a rooted myTouch 3G fender edition. I used the same method as yours to root it.
For more details, go to Nexus one forum, and look for a thread "One Click Root" or something like that. I believe you'll find the detailed instructions on page 22.
Good luck!

Can or can't install on your phone? I am little confused. Anyways I suggest you download Titanium backup from the Android market as well, before you flash ROM. Once you finish back up, you can then start with the ROM Manager.
If either of those doesn't install on your phone, then it is not rooted!
Indeed. Or... download Titanium backup then tell us if you have Busybox installed. Once that's installed, connect it to your computer and type "su" with command prompt and adb installed and if your $ turns to a # then you definitely have root. You can also use terminal emulator from Market. If and when you get the # your next step is a recovery file. After you have a custom recovery your next step is to flash a custom rom.
Thanks all...i will try it...i can install shootme,setcpu and cachemate but i cant install rom manager,its says cannot install on my phone...

which rooting guide did you use? did you change your kernel? you need to replace the bcm4329.ko file in /system/lib/modules with the one that corresponds to the kernel you are running...

It's really not that bad. You just need to slow down, take a breath and follow the instructions and everything will right itself.
Some people always think that there is a one-click solution; when in fact you just need to follow a few precise directions. Key word being 'precise'.
If you want to unroot and go back to stock, check my sig for unrooting.

As far as I know that is true unless the keyboard has configuration options, or plugins of some sort.

Do not proceed if you have no idea what you're doing! i'm not responsible for whatever happens to your device by following this guide.
Method 1. use a file explorer that has access to the system like root explorer.
make sure you have rw access first
copy the file to /system/app
set permissions to rw r r
reboot
Method 2. use androidSDK/adb
move the file to location of adb i.e C:/androidsdk/platform-tools
connect phone to computer
open command window
type in the following:
Code:
adb devices
adb push location-of-your-file /system/app
adb reboot
you made need to set permissions for it to work
to do that:
adb shell
su
chmod 777 /system/app/name-of-file
reboot
both these methods require su and root!
Can you also add a keyboard as a 2nd one..like instead of replacing one, just add an apk and have the option to choose between the 2?

Yeah. When you add a keyboard (like swift key keyboard) just go to settings, language & keyboard, then select your keyboard you just installed. Voila!
One more question.. I looked in system/app with root explorer, and I looked 2 and 3.times, and I see no keyboard apk? Where else could it be or what other name?

Ok, I took the HTC_IME.apk from the LeeDroid Rom which my wife uses, & I put it in the /system/app folder in the Endymion Rom which I am using and I fixed permissions, rebooted, & it works ok til I try to close it after I'm done typing, then it force closes. It just says HTC_ime has stopped suddenly and must close bla bla bla! My 1st thought was that I think LeeDroid is sense 3.0 & this Endymion is sense 3.5? Or is there another way to fix it? Only difference is the arrows across the bottom, which I like. Thanks..

That's what it sounds like. Try taking it from Virtuous Fusion or Unity, then it will probably work.

Hi, I wasn't sure where to post this, so I'm sorry if it's in the wrong place. I am looking for a mod to change the 'H' icon in the status bar, to the 4G icon.
Yes, I do know that 'H' isn't 4g, but I would like a flashable zip, specifically for ics 4.0, for me to try.
Thanks.

Depends on what rom you are using, one cannot simply make a zip that makes that kind of changes on all ICS roms simply because there are framework differences between the likes of CM7, CM9, AOKP, Sense, etc.
If you have Sense ( I think 3.5 or older ) there was one such mod in the Application subforum.
yes as well as one for cm7, have not seen one for ics or jb but I'm sure if you work hard at it you'll find one/make one

Yeah I've seen the one for cm7, but virtuous g lite has it already. Guess the rom wasn't designed for the U.K as it shows 4g when it should be 'H', which is exactly what I want for myself on Mimicry.
On the CM7 mod, someone talked about changing the System Ui.apk, under system-apps, and replacing the 'H' icons with 4g ones. I wondered if that would be the same for me. If anyone could shed some light on this, it would be great.

I don't know how to create a flashable zip, but here is the modified SystemUI.apk - I think it is specific for Andromadus Mimicry 1.4.0.
Since you seem to be new, here is a little guide to apply the modification:
Before doing anything, make a Nandroid backup, just in case something goes wrong.
0. Download the SystemUI.apk and place it in the root directory of your SD card.
1. Open the Terminal Emulator app.
2. Type su and hit the Enter button to gain root permissions.
3. Type busybox mount -o remount -w /system and hit the Enter button to make the /system partition writable.
4. Type cp -f /sdcard/SystemUI.apk /system/app/ and hit the Enter button to copy the modified file to where it belongs.
5. Type chmod 644 /system/app/SystemUI.apk and hit the Enter button to fix the file's permissions.
6. Reboot and enjoy.

I cannot thank you enough. This worked perfectly, with no issues. Your help has been amazing.
Just one question though. If I change roms (factory reset included) or flash a Andromadus Mimicry update, will I lose the 4G icon? Or is it stuck forever?(which would be good).
Thanks again!
Sent from my HTC Vision using xda app-developers app
you will loose it, but you see how easy it is to get again, maybe see if you can find someone who will put it in a .zip for you and you could just flash it right after the flash of a new compatible rom

I gotta contribute to this thread with a little note from my post here. Since our devices can't achieve HSPA+ speeds (4G), why do you want to apply that [incorrect] label in the statusbar? Is it purely an aesthetic thing like "hey I know I don't get 4G but LOOK the ICON shows it!!!!! :victory:".
Maybe I don't understand the point/appeal? If I'm on a 4G network I'd want it to say 4G, if I'm on an HS*PA network I'd want H and if I'm on Edge I want E. The whole point of that icon is to correctly convey the actual network connection, but it seems like you guys just want 4G because it "looks better"?
THAT SAID, right now in ICS if you're on HSPA+ (which has been relabeled to 4G) it will still show H, but as I said, our devices don't seem to be HSPA+ compatible, at least according to GSM Arena.

You are exactly right of course. I am only doing this nonsense for my friend, who is yet to join XDA (sad, yes I know). However, I personally think the 4G icon does look better than H. Its personal preference, I feel. By the way, your zip works fine. I have added your zip to my thread, giving u credit. Is that ok.
