Hey all,
i briefly used the multitouch keyboard from the droid x in opendesire. Now i'm not bothered by the multitouch, but the colour scheme i adore.
so the question is, is there a theme for the htc and android keyboard, to look the same/similar? as i said not bothered about multitouch, I know people are trying to port to desire 2.2 but i more concerned about these colours on the stock keyboards. As i'm more concerned about being able to apply the skin to any Roms i choose as they will all use the stock keyboards Thanks
TIA
Luke.
yea there way a thread that you can upload your keyboard to and customize it online. im really sorry but i cant reamember the site its deff in here somewere tho. i hope this helps?

I am sorry if this has been answered but i am unable to find out any info about a dev porting over the mytouch slide rom to Nexus One. I hope that i am not the only one that would like this port.
Thanks for any info and sorry if i piss off anyone because its not my intention i just was unable to find any info,

Hmm, 3.5 screen.. 3.7 on the Nexus. Along with 2.1 on both devices. It could be ported, but what exactly is the screen resolution of the MyTouch Slide? If its ported but isn't 800x480 (WVGA, HDPI) (or whatever the Nexus 'supposedly' is) or somewhere close, we could be faced with weird size images and graphical issues. And of course with the fact that no one seems to know how to map the keys on the Nexus. Does Paul? Did the Desire ROM not need key mapping?
I don't know what I'm talking about anyways, but it sounds half right using common sense..

Thread killer! He's right though. I believe king was working on it at some point but the mapping is a pain. I wouldn't expect to see this anytime soon.
It's times like these i miss Eugene373. =( What ever happened to him?
Ya i miss all the older devs they had lots of drama but things got done. Thanks for the replies i guess its a lost cause. I for one do not like the look of the desire rom but find the slide rom appealing maybe what will happen is a launcher port from the slide rom to the desire rom then i would be happy.

That has already happened, just no one has released it publicly. I wish the current Sense had "themes" like Espresso, where we can change highlight colors, the general look and feel of things..

I think those look nice. if i remember correctly, there was a "theme" for one of our sense roms, just nothing that could be changed native. =P
Well crap for not releasing publicly haha kiddin. Well maybe i need to just read up on how to do it myself them.
I've made my own Sense launcher..

The more different, the better. To me at least..
See now that launcher is all that i want since the desire one is so unapealing to me. Now i guess its time for me to get to learning so i can do that. Thanks for giving me hope.
Isn't this a port from the MyTouch Slide for the N1? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=635783&highlight=espresso
Hey I was wondering if anyone happened to have the new droid X dump? I'm really looking to try out the new keyboard from it. Thanks guys.
i second this. i would love to see the multi-touch keyboard that the droid x has on the n1.
found the dump over at android central. i want to get the keyboard for my nexus too, hope it works out.

The keyboard is there "LatinIME.apk"
Won't install however on the EVO. If this is able to be installed @ all, its going to need some alteration.
can someone resize this for the droid eris screen size? cause it dosen't work on our lower res screens.
would it be possible to port some of the widgets to other phones? say the incredible?

really where did you get that info? I downloaded and installed the keyboard a few hours ago. it works great BTW.
Only issue I have noticed so far is the vibrate on keypress is not working.
I was able to download the keyboard at droid for life. I am new so the site wont let me post a link.
are you guys talking about Droid X stock keyboard.
I just played with the Droid for the first time and the one thing I was disappointed with was the keyboard...small keys!
Was really hoping there was a way to get the Evos kbd.
if not...smartkeyboard pro will have to do.

Im using Desire Sense - BluteTopia and i really love this build. Of course I dont like the HTC sense keyboard. I want to know how i can put the keyboard that comes with stock froyo as this keyboard is much better than the sense one. But i also have the apk for the Droid X keyboard as well. Any link or directions would be awesome thanx .
I'm a big fan of the Liberated Froyo Sense keyboard since the keys are bigger it doesn't enables XT9 everytime the keyboard comes up, I don't like XT9 at all, I'd rather type everything myself, mostly because I use a lot of slang. I use the compact QWERTY, by the way.
Does anyone know if it could be ripped and installed on the R012? I'd love to have it again
Pretty sure there's version in forums somewhere that's been stripped to work with CM6...

I've searched and all I found was HTC_IME is that the original HTC Keyboard or some look-a-like one?

That is the original HTC keyboard and it works fine on CM 6.1. In your original post you mentioned Liberated R012. That ROM already has the HTC Sense keyboard too.

Yes it does, but it is the "old" HTC Keyboard. The keys are a bit smaller than the FR07 keyboard. The FR07 keyboard is the one I'm looking for, but to use it on the R012 ROM.

OK, then chances are that the HTC_IME that you found is the "old" HTC keyboard, too. I haven't played with FRxx yet, so I haven't seen the changes that you are talking about.

Just installed HTC_IME. Yep, it's the same old keyboard but at least it doesn't go back to XT9 after switching back from the numbers/sybols buttons. In fact, I can even switch apps without going back to XT9. It's great! I just wish the keys were wider like the new keyboard.
Hi,
im New to android. Ive had my X10 for like.... less than a month... but Ive been flashing roms like hell (Currently on WB's Arc CM6) .... but the thing ive noticed is that for every rom I tried, none seemed to have the original S.E. keyboard. (the White One. With the smileys... THE DEFAULT.) Ive grown tired of the android keyboard and better keyboard 8.... I want the old one. Is it possible to use the old one in 2.2? Specifically WolfBreak's ROM. If Yes then how could I install it? Is there a .zip?
Thanks.
I'm not sure whether it will run or not, maybe any user can upload it.
In the start, i too missed the 2.1 keyboard. However, I'd not recommend that keyboard since it is slow when you become a fast typist and there's not much functionality in it. try Smart Keyboard Pro. You have easy access to symbols (long-press), a fast input support, smiley via long-press Return etc, along with themes and other stuff.
Stock 2.1 keyboard will not appeal to you anymore once you get used to it. Do try

Thanks for the Reply. i tried Smart Keyboard seems to be great and all, but I really want the Old 2.1 Keyboard. Just for kicks.. =))
Which keyboard? The one before or after the dualtouch update? There was a recent update and they upgraded the keyboard from the ugly grey one to a slightly better looking white keyboard. Is that the one your talking about?
Or is it the android 1.6 one?
Keep in mind that there are way better keyboards out there and there is no need to be using this crap. I am currently using slideIT and you get to swype like those samsung guys get to. Its very functional and fun.

I too miss the 2.1 keyboard. I kinda really really like it. I've tried so many other kb but still miss the SE stock one...
