I'm new to the android ecosystem but I've always been jealous of swype users, is it possible to port this feature to the nook touch?
Just replace apk file of swype with default keyboard using Root Explorer in system/app
I tried installing a keyboard apk file into system/app file by copy and paste with ES file explorer but it said failed. is there a special app or procedure I need to do this with? and where did you get the apk file? I would like a keyboard with directional arrows (for spreadsheets) and numbers for faster input. Thanks
Are you sure system is r/w?

roryn3kids using ES file explorer use the following instructions and you'll have access to r/w root files:
1. Scroll down to Root Settings and enable Root Explorer and Mount File System.
Not sure if this next step was needed but I did it anyway
2. Once again from the setting menu click on File Settings and enable "Show Hidden Files"
then copy the file from your data\app folder to your system\app folder
Swype "friendliness" to nook STR
The instructions above worked fine for me.
The problem is that I found the apk somewhere (a rather new version but still not the latest) and, even when it works, I do not get any "word list menu" like the one shown in those Swype Howto videos.
This means that, either I use an extremely short vocabulary, or I waste 50% of the time correcting the suggested word...
For instance, let's say I wanted to write f***, Swype forces me to accept the word duck.
This is good, because then I have the time to think twice before swearing but in the end... hum, let's say it's not that productive.
Of course, I checked that the options are properly configured (or I think so)
Does it happen to any of you, nook STR users?
BTW, I might also say that I cannot install the beta from swype.com/category/get-swype/
Have any of you succeeded on this?
Not that I want to re-activate a Post that was last updated in August, but it's nice to have as much information regarding swype as possible in a single post.
Thanks
I just discovered the Swype feature on my galaxy player 4.0 and it's great!
Never used Swype before this, But Since finding it a few days ago, it's all I've used! lol
Hope you get it installed, cuz its awesome.
Ok, I have further investigated the Issue and I can confirm now that it is properly configured (I compared it with some other devices) so let's ask it the other way around...
Is there any nook-STR-user who properly installed Swype?
How did you do it or, better said, where did you get your swype from?
Thanks very much, and a happy new year!

My findings with SWYPE are :
1. when you set your keyboard to SWYPE and do FACTORY reset, you might get problem in the "re_registration" your Nook. For some reason, the factory reset will not erase everything and the device is looking for SWYPE keyboard - which is obviously not there. So you won't have any keyboard to type onto !!! Having not a backup might get you in serious trouble !!!
2. As mentioned over here, the word prediction/suggestion is not visible so really, there is the small nuisance when you have to correct few words. keep an eye on it, when writing.
3. You might find a little bit frustrating the highlighting of a pressed button. Well, OK ... the truth is, that it's TOTALLY ANNOYING !!! Have a look on my video on youtube so you know, what I'm talking about :
youtube.com/watch?v=OYKjvqhxJmU&context=C3503defADOEgsToPDskIus5a7mP57B922B9wWU5cP
But, this can be fixed !!!

Big THANK YOU goes to "djdarkknight96". His solution is to make the "highlighting" transparent, so it doesn't bother you any more. There was an attempt to make the trace line transparent as well, but without success (FC). Please, have a look at his thread for more info.
P.S. : With the youtube links -> as a new member outside links are not allowed for me yet -> so please add "www"

My findings with this are that the swype keyboard is actually still there, so you need to use adb to delete the apk file and, if you replaced the original, find that one and use adb to add it.

Improved suppression of auto-spacing in fields such as URLs and email addresses
Updated the built-in dictionary to include several common words that were previously missing
Rewrote some settings descriptions to be more clear on their functionality
Fixed licensing issue causing “Limited Functionality” errors when rebooting devices running Android 2.0 and later
Fixed licensing issue causing some users to receive an “Incorrect ID” error when installing Swype
Fixed a bug where manually typing some words with word-prediction enabled would cause Swype to crash
Fixed a bug which caused some words added to the UDB to erroneously override other words when word-prediction is enabled
Many other minor bug fixes!
same thing here, can't wait to try it out

It took me a while to figure out how to install this.
I only have the phone a week.
Is this the best way?
1. Download the file.
2. Plug your phone into your computer
3. Drop the file into the root directory of your micro sd.
4. Plug out cable from phone..
5. Open Astro, find the apk and install it from there.
6. Close astro.
7. Go to settings - language and keyboard.
8. Check the swype button.
9. Open a new text message and hold your finger in the text entry box.
10. Select input method and select swype.

Good morning all!
I've tried to search both on this forum and on google in general, but I'm having trouble finding a good answare to my question.
I recently changed from a SD ROM to Pongsters great NAND build. Had to use DFT, due to problems with the CWM. I'm now on Gingerbread - excellent!
Unfortunately I live in this weird country called Norway and we use an alphabet with three more letters (Æ, Ø and Å). Is there anyway I could get these three letters into my gingerbread keyboard, any language pack?
I found this link by searching, but I'm not sure how to install it. It seems like i need CWM.
My temporary solution was to download a 2.3 modification of the "Scandinavian keyboard". It works, but I'm loosing the famous gingerbread keyboard.
A dictionary would too, almost be overkill, awesome.
All help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi mate, maybe this package can help you:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=875202
the above is an add on keyboard, you will need to switch to it through keyboard selection.
Otherwise you can push the content of your CMW zip with adb (i suggest to pull the original files before).
adb remount
(optional, gets the original file from your phone) adb pull /system/app/LatinIME.apk "local Location" (ex. c: or /home/user/desktop)
adb push "replacement APK file location" /system/app/
(optional, gets the original file from your phone) adb pull /system/lib/libjni_latinime.so "HDD Location" (ex. c: or /home/user/desktop)
adb push "replacement lib file location" /system/lib/
then reboot and you will use the new KB.
Cheers.
The keyboard looks nice, but as far as I can see there are no Norwegian (NO) alternate.
Anyhow, the ADB-way seems interesting. Never tried, or even heard, about ADB before, but that's why we have tutorials and forums, right?
Downloading the SDK at this very moment.

Once you go ADB you won't back.
It's not that difficult, if you have some nerd past it will be very easy, otherwise it's plenty of tutorials, just follow them and you won't do it wrong.
Just a small hint,
with CWM always backup before.
w/out CWM always titanum backup.
Cheers.
Maybe a long shot, but have u tried SwiftKey? It supports the Norwegian language, u can set it to two language packages so it shows suggestions in both languages and no need to switch anymore.
I use it German/English and it is IMO just awesome. In particular after a few days using it it is predicting almost whole sentences by it's own.
Just a suggestion without messing with pushing commands ect. ;-)

Also, downloads for Dexter's mods have historically been buggy for many users. The file you download (through 1.3) should be around 100MB. The exact size varies between versions. If the above suggestions don't work for you, try downloading the file again.
If you still have issues with the downloaded file, other users have found download success by using a browser download plugin called flashgot. It only works with Firefox and Thunderbird though.
http://flashgot.net/
I had an issue with the download with similar results to yours. My download was only about 63K whem it should of been a little over 100MB.
I had to start down loading the 1.2 update, that would start to download the whole 1.2 file. I'd cancel the download then download 1.3. For some reason after that it downloaded the complete 1.3 update file and I was able do the update.
So, check your downloaded file size and see if that's you issue. Also make sure you rename it Update with a capitol "U".
how long does the download take? i followed the instructions and my screen went to a picture of an android? and a box and stayed that way.

Did you boot into recovery (1. by turning off the unit, then power it on by holding the power button for a second, release, and then hold again until the recovery menu pops up), or did you use the settings menu to run the Update file (2. Open Settings > About device > System updates > Update device)?
If you did option 1, the soft keys on the side of the tablet allow you to navigate from the image you reference (android robot & box):
Search Key = Up
Back Key = Down
Home Key = Menu
Menu Key = Select
When you see the robot, press the Home key to take you to the update menu. Navigate the menu to clear your cache. After the cache wipe is complete, select the option to install Update.zip. Give it about 10min to run through the update, and it should reboot. If it reboots into an Elocity Logo loop, long press the power key until it shuts down. Your next boot should take you into a properly functioning tablet. Depending on the version of the OS you currently have installed, the update may retain your current apps and settings.
I haven't tried option 2 in a while, but it should do everything for you automatically - but it will probably factory reset the tablet and you'll lose any previously installed apps.
thanks. Did not know this when i posted found out byaccident when wipinfg off fingerprints. Wish they sent directions with the A7.

NP. Did exactly the same thing back in December.
if you have not solved your issue I believe I had simular problem. the file when you download is already a .zip file. So when you rename it just rename it "Update"
Another newbie here with a question.
My new A7 is due to be delivered tomorrow.
From what I have gathered so far from this board is that the Dexter Mod allows you to get apps from google marketplace, correct?
I am not sure which version of firmware will come on the A7 but I am going to assume that it will not be the latest one released in February.
My question is should I do the firmware update first, and then download and install the Dexter Mod?
Thanks in advance.

Dexter's mods have all been based on firmware updates from Elocity. He has kindly added market functionality and fixed a few bugs. I don't see any value in updating with Elocity's firmware prior to installing Dexter's latest.
As the other poster said there is no need for the elocity 7 update but if I were youI would keep it handy. I had a problem with the mod and had to reset the device with the old firmware. Also it seems a weird problem with android reading the file as when reading in astro the upddate.zip looked like update.zip.zip. w
Wierd.
So you just write update i dont even capitalize it.
Also want to add as newbie to andrid as well and it makes a huge difference in performance too. Think it is fast now when you put the mod it seemed to increase overall performance for me which I did not expect.
Good luck

That is not an android problem. That is what happens when windows explorer is set to hide known file extensions and people dont think when remaming things.
Please do not insult people because we lack knowledge which is why we are here to figure out what is going on. I had no idea windows explorer was set to hide file extensions. I never set it that way nor was i ever told before now. Now that I know i can do something but I was thinking, maybe i do not know what i am doing but you could offer help without making me feel like an idiot.

So it is not OK for me to point out an obvious mistake (seriously, this one is like calling grass purple). BUT it is perfectly fine for you to assume that it is a "problem with android" and disseminate misinformation like its your job.
Yup, I am obviously in the wrong.
It is obvious to you. I made a mistake and never said I was an expert and pointed that out in my response by saying I was a newbie too and this was what happened to me and my best guess was what I said. I never said I knew it was an andriod glitch but because I had no other idea until someone like you with more knowledge chimmed in.
All I am saying is you could have corrected me as a newbie with a sense of friendship and not superiority. I was sharing my experience to help someone else. That is all I want to do. I am no expert and am learning as I go.
I have seen others in linux forums when i started with that with the tone. Maybe it seems like thecolor of grass to you but is not so obvious to others. If I sounded like I was telling people mis information then I apologize. That was not my intention.
It is up to you how you treat others and if it feels like the right thing then that is your right. Just understand that some of us are not out to show we are smarter than anyone else and are just trying to help even when we make wrong assumptions.
Thanks for correcting me and setting the record straight.

Hi all, have just update my milestone to the cm71-111105.0200-NIGHTLY-Milestone2-ICS-v1.0 version
All so far seems Ok, wife, phone, mails etc I have changed the settings to french as I live in France, the onscreen keyboard works fine BUT the physical keyboard is still typing in qwerty rather than azerty
so any help would be nice
thanks
Use ES File explorer for instance and grant root privilegies - since you need to use it on root FS and follow this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19108106&postcount=1889
tl;dr: in /system/scriptbox is keypad switching script
Thanks for the info, downloaded the es explorer and managed to grant it root access, but cant 'see' the local files I only can see whats on the SD card or Lan for instance what have I missed ?
You have to grant root access in the settings of ES file manager and then you have to change home directory in the settings of ES from "/sdcard/" to "/" and then you'll see root directory of your phone. Then simply go to /system/scriptbox and there should be it. (I have older version of CM, so I can change my layout in the settings menu and so I don't have scriptbox folder).
I changed to file manager and gave it root access, its clearer to use use than ES, I can get into the /system file but the there is no no /scriptbox in it
Since my firstpost I changed to cm7-111108-2350-NIGHTLY-Milestone2.zip
so maybe thats why

Checkout the new version, there's azerty keyboard as well (cyanogenmod settings -> input -> keyboard char map)
Hi
thats is just great, installed cm7-111111-2028-NIGHTLY-Milestone2, switched to English to find the input section, changed it to AZERTY and then switched back to French. For info you need to reboot for the keyboard changes to be taken into account, many thnaks for this
Now I still have the problem of loosing the 'reseau', (I get the message no service available) then after awhile it commes back, in another post someone says that I may need to change the baseband, but am a little lost on this problem
minty95: If you're using CM7 from Endless7, then it is really easy. There should be application named Milestone 2 Toolbox.. In this app, there is option "Baseband Switching Tools", which installs english baseband switcher. Then just use second option (Europe 2.2.2) and it should work ok. (you could also try first option, if you have problem with second option)
And you can also see actual baseband in this app.
Thanks I'm not using this rom but this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1338183
I'm downloading the one from Endless7 and will flash and try it, to see as in the one I'm running I doesn't have the milestone toolkit, but does have a Azerty keyboard, so I wuill test it and get back
I think, it should be possible to extract milestone toolkit apk from endless7's CM7... Also, you can download it separately from his topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1239778 - in the first post, there is attachment named "ToolBox+Baseband+others.rar" - this is what you need - there is milestone 2 toolkit apk, which you can simply install to any rom
I downloaded the Endless7 rom and installed it
The program for the baseband is all in chinese (I had already found and installed it on the other ROM) but as it's all in chinese I have no idea what to choose
Have already switched back to the other ROM, shown in my last post as it gives me the possibilty to change the keyboard to azerty and which Endless7 does not
So I'm just stuck with this baseband program in chinese
I have Endless7's ROM and I don't have it in chinese, I have english version.
In the attachment of this message I included screenshot of my version, apk of my baseband switcher and apk of my Milestone2ToolBox (which gave me this baseband version)...
Hope it helps somehow.
I think that you just saved my life
Have installed your download and it is in English, phew, testing now,
many thanks
Update : After a afternoon of using the first option (2.2) on the basedband APK 1.5.4 and having had no loss what so ever, am now trying the second option europe 2.2.2
I know have a phone that is at least twice as fast as last week
again many thanks
I have rooted my nook simple touch. Originally it was meant for reading only, but I write a lot too and writing on a computer screen is very straining as well as intimidating. I installed an app for takig notes on my NST but then I found that the keyboard isn't very nice on the nook. I want to change it. There are several keyboard apps on the market but none of them seem to work. I am not very much aware about the android system, so will someone please help me install a new keyboard? I don't need swype, swiftkey x will do. please help me install swiftkey x or something similar.
you have to move the apk file from /data/app to /system/app. Then use Nook Color Tools to select new keyboard.
I can recommend Hacker's keyboard (on market it is for android 2.2 and later but you can find somewhere on the forum link to a 2.1 version). Only cons is that it is dark but I have asked a developer and he is working on a different look (and hopefully also integrate 2.1 compatibility pach).
if you dont wanna open adb or anything, just do this
you can just install the app using Market
(or)
Download the apk from tto your computer. copy it to your SD card. Insert the SD card into nook and just open the folder in your SD card where you have the .apk and tap on it. then nook will ask for an install prompt and then proceed to install.
Once done enable the keybord from the app itself, or if you open NookColor tools you will have an ption to change the default keyboard

Just to add on to this, ICSKeyboard has a working autocorrect/suggestion system.
thanks everyone. I figured it all out myself. I am currently on touchpal and am loving it. thanks for the Co ordination
How did you get Touchpal to work. I installed TouchPal Tablet and the keyboard was all messed up?
What version of Touchpal are you using?
Hello, I'm also looking for a better keyboard (for Spanish, for example).
I've tried many (I like ICSKeyboard), but all they lack the key "Done" (required when adding notes in the stock Reader).
Somebody knows if there is a keyboard that includes it?
TIA,
jugaor
sorry I meant smart keyboard pro. its great and very customizeable. it also has Spanish language for it, and many more.
I think the done key is not dependent on what keyboard you use (its not available on the stock of course), it gets activated only in situations the app needs it to. so if the apparently commands the use of the done key, it will be there. I am not sure if this is correct, but I do get the one key whenever I want on the smart keyboard pro.
I have the same problem with the "Done" key: for example when I want to add a note to my books, I found I can only do that with the stock keyboard which has a permanent "done" button for me to press. Any other keyboard I tried has the normal "enter" key, but no "done"... pressing enter has the effect of a carriage return on the notes (that allow for multiline comments up to 512 char), but I can't save the note.
Anyone found a solution to this?
Thanks anyone!

Your post is my only hope left in the sea of misery of keyboards without auto-suggestion. I tried to install a couple of ICSKeyboard builds on my 1.2.1 Nook rooted with NootManager, but to no avail. Could you tell me where to find a cab of this ICSKeyboard working on Nook?
The TorimuNooter is not available anywhere anymore. The only image I could find is 06K version; it doesn't have this keyboard.
Clarification on installing a new keyboard: First you will need a browser with root privileges (ES File Explorer worked for me). In the settings menu, choose Root Explorer, then Mount R/W. Both "data" and "system" need to be set to R/W - otherwise I couldn't see the files and folders in data and I couldn't copy things to system/app). Find the keyboard install program (mine (graffiti) was not easy - I had to search for the APK). Copy it to the System/App folder. Run the install from that folder. That made it show up in the Nook Color Tools for me.
There must be a way to force the "Done" key to show in a 3rd party keyboard.. I use Smart keyboard to be able to write to my language (stock has only english) but the only problem is this "done" key not showing, although it show elsewhere..
