I really want to know if anyone has successfully installed the HTC IME mod keyboard on their streak (Factory Unlocked 2.2 Froyo)? I installed it and got force closes. I had to uninstall it. I loved this keyboard on my former captivate.
It'l work on either Dell/Steve 2.2, you just need to be using a 180+ screen density.

I just thanked you for that. I was really bummed out when I last tried the HTC keyboard. Now that I'm running a 240 LCD density it works perfectly!
Where did you get the apk?

the High res 2.2 version works. I use it as my normal keyboard, as I mentioned though, you have to be running at least 180+ for a screen density.
Why the HTC keyboard? I have smart keyboard pro and there is a HTC skin in the options. Just wondering why

Is there any keyboard that will actually work, that i can calibrate and it wont freeze when im typing fast.
I put HTC_IME mod keyboard and it was alright until it froze constantly, swype requires me to look at the screen and the " android keyboard" is simply horrible.
can anyone link me to a keyboard similar to 2.1 that actually works for CM6?
Thank you

Smart Keyboard (Pro Version) is the best I've found so far. Try the free version and upgrade if you like it to get T9 capability. Can you post the apk file for that HTC_IME mod? I'd like to try that out!
@ Puffdaddy_d ; i'd be glad to if i still have it in my sd
And thanks ill try it, where can i get it ? ( too lazy to search or anything haha )
edit: nevermind found it in market
and i posted the .apk for you.
Thank you very much for the apk! I'll give it a try. Let me know if Smart Keyboard works out for ya!

I wonder if that HTC keyboard mod is really designed for the CDMA hero running froyo? It FC's the moment I try to load it. That sounds more like a complete incompatibility issue rather than being just "buggy". Do you know where you got it from?
My friend has database filled with apps and he put it on my phone via adb, it works just buggy actually.

Just tried installing this using an install manager instead of adb push and it's working flawlessly so far! I've got my HTC Keyboard BACK!!!
Too bad I can't get my $4 back from the market...
Better Keyboard works great. I think its 2 bucks on the market
try SwiftKey Beta, it's free and actually works on CM6 (I'm using it now!)

I don't know why you would want the stock one when it doesn't even have multi-touch...
Just install smartkeyboard pro, it looks exactly like the stock keyboard but with multi touch, plus some other goodies.

thats probably why the stock android keyboard doesnt work. it doesnt support multi touch lol i never would have thought that.
s10shane I did that also and it force closed but its not because of the multitouch because the g2 has a multitouch chip and still runs it..

I may be missing something, but I believe my 4g already has the stock keyboard -- you just press and hold in any text input field, choose "Input Method", and select "Touch Input" -- that seems as close to a stock android keyboard as any I've seen.
I just installed it as well. I like the options it gives for customization but the prediction doesn't match htc's. At least not with changing the settings I have found.
I like sense's keyboard and how it shows the suggested words as I am typing. Skpro doesn't seem to have that option.
I'm willing to keep smart keyboard just because it wasn't that expensive but I may need longer to appreciate it.

Hi!
Is it possible to get the latest android market for X10 now?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=870190
Working version attached. testet on 2.1 AOSP b006, but should also work with original SE firmware. have to say i don't like it that much. Design is really nice, but the old one was more intuitive to use.

I think and hope so. i replaced my vending.apk before and still got the update with that added "similar" button, so it should work...
Okay, thx. But I dont see all buttons okay, it seems to be some things are stretched..., the vertical space between the installed apps is to big for no reason...

Did you ever use density changer on your recently flashed rom? Because when I did, some apps stayed "changed" even after resetting density and uninstalling density changer, e.g. Doodle jump. Not even reinstalling doodle jump helped. Perhaps this happened with your market? Just a suggestion.

Sorry, I only tested on custom 2.1 006 and didn't experience any problems. don't really know about original se rom
Sent from custom AOSP 2.1 using XDA App
Same problem...
Probably a glitch due to screen size for the stock SE rom as it adjusts to the location of where it would be for a less wide-screen
Buttons are only 1/2. When I clear the cache, no buttons at all.
Reverted back to old market.
Just a thought but the x10 isnt wvga. Iirc. There actually 854x480 as apposed to 800x480. Or fwvga. This may be an.issue

Right, good thought! But why does it work on custom ROM, then? Shouldn't screen size/behaviour stay the same?

possibly because the aosp is a generic rom meant for a good few devices therefore adapting its size. then these are just suggestion and not guidance, i really have no idea just providing shots in the dark
FWVGA is a support resolution for Android (see the Motorola Droid 1/2/Pro/X devices). The resolution is probably not the issue. Gotta be something with the stock ROM.
How do I go back to the original Market?
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
New Market
1. Slow
2. Crashes
3. Buttons not showing properly
I tried to uninstall the update but, when I restart the market again it updates itself. Any clue as to how I can uninstall the update and make it that permanent so that it does not automatically update?
Thanks!
So I'm having incredibly trouble using HTC_IME on my phone... I tried v27 and v23 of Jonas' keyboard and it wouldn't work, I even used one of the newer hd ones I found elsewhere from a couple months ago, still no luck. They all install perfectly fine but when I try to use them they just force close before even opening up.
Is there another 'free' compact qwerty keyboard I can use that works on the play? I really like the HTC_IME and would like to get it back, but I'm having horrible luck.
Any suggestions? Need more specifics? Let me know if you can help!
Im using the htc_ime_mod from gimpsta.com now works fine on my play, i used the v2.7 hi res froyo kitchen

Swiftkey X beta is my favourite keyboard, the autocorrect and predictive text gets better the more you use it. Most intelligent keyboard i've ever used...almost too inteligent

does the original gingerbread keyboard work on the play?

+1 for swype its works alot better than the standard keyboard and its cool to use too
There are a couple of themed HTC_IME mod keyboards for gingerbread which also work on the XPlay on these forums.
The only problem with it is that the calibration tool force closes.
Thanks for the heads up on SwiftKey X beta, better than the original.
Hi guys, great forum with some great tips.
Just got my xperia play and love it to bits.
Not sure if anyone else is experiencing this but I find the keyboard very inaccurate and slow to respond.
When I compare it to my previous Iphone and HTC desire it seems poor.
Any suggestions for tweeking or any options for downloading another keyboard.
Thanks in advance
Chris
Swype
Takes a bit of getting used to swyping but you can also just use it normally to type and its much more accurate than the stock keyboard
im having the same issues , i tried gingerbread keyboard lite which was much more accurate but i was a constant running process in the backgroung using around 30mb , i wish there was a way to edit the stock xperia play keyboard i.e button size height and load a custom user dictionary, yes there are other keyboards like smart, better or swype but really sony should update / fix the stock one.
anyone know if once youve installed a 3rd party keyboard can you safely remove the stock one if rooted and not encounter any problems ?.......
SwiftKey is better to use then the stock keyboard. It just takes a bit of time to get use to.

How's the consensus on HTC_IME keyboard?
I remember it was all the rage when the X10 was released but I haven't been annoyed with the stock keyboard (yet) to give it a try.

I personally hate the htc keyboard..I always used alternate keyboards when I had my HTC.
I use swiftkey, while a tad too busy for my taste, it works damn well once you set it up to your liking. The arrow keys make me not miss my trackpad, and the numberpad-style number page is awesome.
I started using one of the Iphone keyboards.
Find it much better though still not as good as my Iphone.
I just paid for number pad a t9 keyboard its fantastic
