I installed it using root explorer. Obviously the keys are smaller than they should be but it looks really good. Auto correct is working great as well.

nice can u post up a screen shot wondering how small it looks lol

Ill have to do it when I get home. It isn't overly small and looks pretty sleek. Ill post a pic a little later when im done work. You should just install it and check it out. I can almost guarantee its not to small for the tab. It actually helps me type better. Its as wide as the whole screen just not as tall as the stock keyboards but yields no issue. I actually prefer the size.

Cheers, Dan

So now we got the keyboard... how about porting the whole system now?
No seriously, what can we do with the system.img from the sdk?

I'm downloading the SDK now. I'll pick apart as much as I can. I want to see if that fancy new launcher will be an easy port. I'm going to try the keyboard out on my Tab and myTouch 4g now.

The launcher is on the market already. I tried it last night and it works fine. I still like LPP more though.

Really? Should I just search Launcher2.3
The new SDK threw me through a loop putting ADB in \platform-tools!

Search for Gingerbread Launcher.

People are just discussing information about CHT 1.8, it has nothing to do with being serious.
I'm loving it very much as well. Has that home screen music widget always been there? I'm freaking loving it!
Yep. It's rad. Stoked on it and nothing to complain about. The widgets are cool.

Did you guys uninstall the patch for HDWall? I haven't tried it yet.
Does this have a setting for disabling your Data connection if it's not used for a period of time? I noticed that I'll wake my phone up and the data connection is turned of... Turn it back on and it's fine, but I can't seem to find anything in the options in regards to what is happening.
I didn't notice it happening before CHT 1.8.

I'm on Virtuous 2.6 using the Evo theme (manup) and I think it's pretty damn hot looking. I always find changes i like either here or ROM manager. If you like Vanilla, Skyraider or Ruby are my personal favorites, sense = Virtuous for me.
Pros = Great device... tons of dev attention and sense is better than any stock UI out there (IMO).
Cons = No one does ANYTHING for my poor Droidx. All the fantabulous devs are here, so my cool new toy gets no love.

ya, so far I have the basic view in but the widgets won't update automatically, it freezes at least every 20 minutes and the majority of functions are horribly broken. But in the same way it's still pretty sweet. I won't be releasing it until I can at least get it to run on the network because so far you have wifi and everything else network,gps,camera, ect. Is all down. So much for my weekend lol

Have you added these libs from an Eris ROM to /system/lib:
libhtc_acoustic.so
libhtc_ril.so
And added these lines to the build.prop:
rild.libpath=/system/lib/libhtc_ril.so
ro.telephony.default_network=4
ro.cdma.home.operator.numeric=310012
ro.cdma.home.operator.alpha=Verizon
ro.ril.htcmaskw1.bitmask=4294967295
ro.ril.htcmaskw1=268449905
I would also take out any ro.ril.* that are in the original build.prop.
Of course, I haven't looked at a Moto ROM in a while, so I might be totally off base.
Thanks that might help
I'm curious -- what device are you porting this from?

Gingerbread screen off animation

I maintain that this was a hoax from somone pretending to have Gingerbread... Of course everybody shoots me down because they want that silly animation for some reason... Good luck finding it.

yeah plus the android central hands on today shows it several times too, so no it's no hoax. not sure how someone could have thought it was after all this time, and many videos of it
Hrm, well I stand corrected... What a stupid garish 'feature.'
For those wanting the screen off animation:
Get the system dump from the Nexus S section.
Open it in WinRAR.
Go to system/framework/framework-res.apk/res/anim
Copy the 74 xmls somewhere on your Desktop.
Go to the same location on whatever ROM/Theme you're using and replace the files.
Flash it in recovery.
Hope this helps.

Thanks for your help. But that didnt make any difference for me...
Pretty sure there on the boot.img and after flashed they are in /sys/power lol
I'm only able to see framework-res.apk in the system dump. Going to try and replace it and install on recovery. Made a backup of the other file, so we will see...
Couldn't find any XMLs because I can't open the APK as a folder in "view" on work laptop
just search for "xml transitions" the screen off is animation is in there just like gingerbread use metamorph, i have been using this on miui for weeks now..

Sorry, I bought some tablets for staff. One of the users of the latest upgraded Tab to 1.4.4 says that her tablet buttons don't respond very well after the update.
She is the only one on 1.4.4, the rest are on 1.4.2
Are there any long fingernail issues? And beliwve it or not, some people are button-challenged. I would definately observe her.
Edit: Adinis78 mentioned his search button didn't work correctly in 1.4.4 -- maybe this is an issue for some.

As rangercaptain said, some people use their nails to press them like they had to on old touch screens. Try downgrading to 1.4.2 and see if that helps.

No it isn't a usability issue as she was using stock rom with no problems before. I guess I'll switch her out to 1.4.2 when I see her next.

I don't think you can use the upgrade version of 1.42 - you will have to do the wipe version, or the problem will still be there. If she has many apps, etc. remember use titanium to back up her apps and their data, but no system data.

The idea for 'zombie infested Gingerbread/Desire' was because of the zombie image Google included into the Gingerbread build.
My new one is because I watched Pinocchio with my daughter and I realised how much I loved it as a kid Probably have a new one soon
