Does anyone know if you can install the Evo stock keyboard onto the desire. Not only does it have arrows but also has voice to text icon on it. Would save me time from flipping between two different keyboards.

Well. doesn't Htc_ime_mod do everything you want it to. (I know there are no arrows. But voice to text and swipe to change keyboard.)
I tried but got stuck while deodexing it... Maybe some other time. Still Android n00b although hold few degrees in cs.
Don't have that keyboard. I'll look for it. Thanks

Here it is, deodexed and signed. I tried to install it via adb but failed bacause it says it is aleady present (obviously...). Perhaps it can be pushed via recovery? I tried to look into the matter but because of app2sd the situation of my phone appears to be rather chaotic and i didn't want to mess up...another way (drastic) could be to repack a rom with it...any suggestions?

Well just to let you know its a must if your ever going to root your phone.
Download rom manager from the market. Open it up and at the top it says flash clockwork. Click that to flash it. Then scroll down and click make backup.......... That's it. But... You need to make the backup before you make any changes like deleting apps etc..

Is there an easy way to set the recovery back to stock after installing a custom recovery like ClockworkMod?
If you install ClockworkMod recovery just be aware that a lot of people have the problem that the phone will automatically boot into recovery every time you plug in the charger while it's turned off.

anyone try installing the gingerbread keyboard on the mt4g? i just tried and i can't seem to do it...
i installed the zip but i can't choose the gingerbread keyboard. any thoughts?
I installed it (via clockwork) and it will open but everytime I press a key I get a FC for 'android.process.inputmethod.latin' I only have English selected too.
Very strange, hopefully someone sorts this out.
In the mean time, anyone know the terminal or adb commands to uninstall this kb?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
I flashed it via clockwork recovery, and don't even see the Gingerbread keyboard listed as an input method. (Same issue as OP) - FWIW I'm running Iced Glacier v1.1.1, phone is rooted with S-OFF.
I'm also on iced glacier, could be the keyboard file you're using. Try the file from a different source..

just out of curiosity, which source did you use?
I used this one from androinica

And it worked?
I had problems at first too - was installing from recovery but couldn't select it after I rebooted.
Figured out that from recovery mode you need to mount /system before installing the zip from sdcard. Mount then install and it should install and be there when you reboot
UPDATE: I'm getting the same FC problems a previous user was having whenever i hit a key on the new keyboard
Wait, what? I tried installing simply with root explorer. There is one file that goes to system/app and another to system/lib. Following a reboot, there is no input option besides the three default inputs.
I tried installing this keyboard a about an hour ago and the following happened: The first install appeared to go well and I could not find the keyboard listed so I tried installing the updated V2(fabulouso ginerbread v2. zip)of this zip and and this time it soft bricked my phone. Luckily I was able to boot into clockworkmode recovery and restore. I am on V5 and have s=off but no other customizations. I have no idea why this happened. Any one have any thoughts on this?

No sir, someone asked what source I obtained the KB I tried from.
Probably another stupid error on my part, but my Android keyboard has disappeared. Apparently I am one of only a few that doesn't like the Swype keyboard.
So I rooted my phone, and also am running LauncherPro. It wasn't until I installed LP that I discovered that my Android keyboard disappeared. When I long hold in a text input box, the keyboard prompt comes up.....but Swype is the only selectable option.
Fwiw, I hadn't touched any apps at all after rooting......when I noticed this. Shortly after, I started disabling some apps (never deleted any)....by changing the file names from APK to BAK. I wonder if maybe I just didn't notice until later.....and possibly have disabled whatever file the Android keyboard is in?
Suggestions? Fwiw, when I go to Setting>keyboards......Swype is the only thing there as well. I have also uninstalled LP and reinstalled, for ****s and giggles.
Help!!!! I hate Swype!!!
Thanks to anyone that gives this a shot.
I'm in the same boat. Also tried flashing from rom manager, with no success. Running dj05/.9 superclean/stupidfast 1.54.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
You can reload the Rom if it was there to begin with.
Also, why rename BAK?
In the original thread of rooting over at androidcentral it was recommended to rename them with a .old at the end and not change the APK. This way the file stays but no longer shows in the dock.
Also, if you have the files on your computer to restore your phone you can just nuke the stuff you don't want as long as it doesn't have a necessary purpose for the OS.
I am still new to the hacking stuff. I am halfway wondering if I lost my Android keyboard when I rooted. I followed the AndroidCentral thread for the one click root....and was successful. Fwiw, I cannot successfully install ROM manager either.....so I couldn't fix an earlier problem by running my backup from Clockwork.
Should I remove the root, and install another? Again, I am green to all of this stuff.....so the easier stuff is worded or instructions are given, the better. I guess I'm old.

Use the zip 1.5.5
Read the thread and follow the instructions. Piece of cake to get your root access back.

U do. I have ODIN as well, but can't get my computer to connect in ODIN to the cell phone. I have installed the correct drivers, but it won't work for the life of me.

Remove your battery, hold the volume down button and plug in while still holding the button down. The screen should come up with a yellow android guy and ODIN should show "COM" something or another in the top left box. This is how you get in to Download.
Can never go wrong with digging up old eclair threads.

Another Fascinating post by my XDA app...
I'm interested in flashing the zip of the droid 2 multi touch keyboard mod. I've tried other ways except flashing but failed. Do you think flashing through recovery, like it was intended, it going to really screw up the htc default keyboard to the point of no return? I know it will replace it but do you think this would only make things worse? I'm asking before pulling the trigger.
make a nandroid backup. if something happens there is always a jumping back to the point of origin this way
You might try downloading it on your phone. Then use root explorer to extract the apk. Go to sd/extracted click on the apk and try installing.

Been there. Conflicts with stock kb and fc like crazy. I will see if I can muster up some courage here.....
If that's the case then flashing it probably won't do anything but backup and wing it. Restore is just a couple clicks away!

It didn't work. There's a conflict somewhere that I don't know how to fix. No biggie. It wasn't super important.
Not sure exactly what happened. I was using the tablet and all of a sudden the bottom three buttons disappeared as well as the top bar. The system kept getting force closes. I rebooted and it just sat in the reboot mode. I tried to recover from the system but that is not working. I cant seem to get the system to mount via usb now. I am in clockwork mod v5.8.0.2 and do not see an option. If I could mount it I could put an img file back on and get it to work. Any help would be great.

You could try to flash back the stock software to see if that helps? Look here for some help.
Are you running a custom ROM or anything else? ALSO, once you do manage to get everything fixed, I would upgrade your CWM to the most current version 6.0.1.0 by flashing this in the older (5.8.0.2) version.
Sounds like it might be permission related, you could try a 'fix permissions' in recovery

Permissions did not fix it. I am trying to figure out the ADB.

Just do a bunch of reading! We were all noobs once
I keep getting the message "error: cannot load 'bootloader-grouper-3.34.img' . It seems like something is wrong with the file. Is there a way I could just flash another Rom on this way or even update the clockwork mod using adb?

Did you download the nakasi file from the google site? You shouldn't have an issue with that. And you can update CWM using ADB, just check over in the Android Development section.
