Does anyone know of, or is anyone working on a stock keyboard apk for AOSP roms?
I'm on Evervolv's rom and totally missing the magnifying glass text tool. I"m assuming that was part of the keyboard and not Sense.

Nope. That was Sense. Evervolv is the stock keyboard.

So there's no way to port that keyboard w/ magnification to an AOSP rom or and apk that will work on an AOSP rom?

Well, I wouldn't say THAT. Where there's a dev there's a way I, unfortunatly, am not that guy but I'm sure someone could do it. Maybe you could put up a bounty? It's sure to be more than just porting an .apk though, probably libs and frameworks and other crazy files that I've no idea what they do.

You can try this one out but I can't guarantee it will work and I wouldn't hold out too much hope for the magnification working.
I too am hoping for this because I'm too attached to T9 texting, and HTC's keyboard is pretty good for that. I tried the one linked and it FC's everytime I try to access it.
EDIT: Found a temp solution (if not perm). Here is a modded HTC_IME that works for the most part:

I am using the Froyo Hi res version.
Whenever I type on Facebook or anywhere else on the net my keyboard is extremely laggy. Its fine in apps and such. Ive tried three different keyboards - asus, android, and thumb so I don't think that's the problem and my wifi signal is very strong so I know that's not the issue either. Im rooted but running stock rom/kernel. Will flashing a custom rom and/or kernel remedy this? If so any suggestions on which ones?

this is a known issue there is allot of information about it use search before posting
It's Honeycomb, not the Transformer itself.
Should be improved in ICS.
I like the Asus keyboard better then the stock honeycomb one but it was laggy as hell before I disabled that half ass Swype feature.
It's an issue with the stock browser. Apps work just fine because they're optimized for the hardware, but most of the websites on the internet are not. You can alleviate some of the lag by using a different browser like Opera, but don't expect miracles.
I've been using CyanogenMod for a while on my M2. BTW, works like a charm and installation was painless - thanks a lot for all the tips and your hard work.
One thing I am missing quite a lot from the stock ROM (probably the only thing, really) is having dictionary suggestions displayed at the bottom of the screen when using the physical keyboard (as when using any onscreen keyboard). I have searched the settings menus and simply can't find it anywhere. I have even installed MIUI for a while to see if it was there but no luck either.
Am I missing something or is this feature only available on stock ROM? If so, do you think it would be possible to have it ported to CM7 or any other non-stock ROM in that matter? That would be quite useful especially considering that the M2 keyboard is a little bit on a rubbish side - improved a lot with the Debounce fix though.
Thanks a lot for any suggestions!

But this is on-screen keyboard, isn't it?
yes, but got also auto-correct for HW keyboard with many languages
Oh, didn't know that. I'll have a look. Cheers.
This is quite odd though. Doesn't it mean that installing a stock keyboard patch would bring this feature back? I installed it and the stock on-screen keyboard was fine but I am fairly certain it didn't work. Unless there were some settings I missed.
Works fine actually. Thanks a lot for the tip wadimka.
Wonder if there is a free app with the same functionality.
I ended up using GO Keyboard. I like the interface more, the dictionary seems to be a bit better for some reason (not sure if that's even possible ) and on top of that it's free.
I am fairly certain I have tried it before as I use other GO apps including GO Launcher and the dictionary wasn't working with the built-in keyboard. Looks like I must have messed up some settings.
Cornerstone is a multi windowed ui application that allows you to see and interact with 3 applications in the same window. Cornerstone requires changes to the framework so unlike other apps must be flashed and baked into a ROM.

Does this work for WiFi xoom? I see an _1, does that mean it has improved already?
Question
Is it possible to get a md5 hash for the download file?. I assume we install the zip file with CW over the EOS nightly rom. Any info would be appreciated.

Yes, this is for the wingray model. 0.85.1 is the newest version. Changlog is here http://github.com/Onskreen/cornerstone/wiki/Cornerstone:-Version-History

Yes, I just flashed the zip on top of EOS rom. As far as md5, I don't know.
So if this if for the Wingray model, I assume flashing it over the EOS Stingray version would result in loss of mobile data? Has anyone tried?
See OP has been updated with EOS builds. There are stingray builds there. The EOS team needs to start a cornerstone nightlies thread IMO.
Wingray Cornerstone V1 here:
http://goo-inside.me/devs/teameos/roms/cornerstone/nightlies/wingray/Eos-wingray_cornerstone-1.zip
Installed it over Nightly 78, looking fine but with problems. No Lockscreen, no rotation, dpi was changed (think this is needed to get cornerstone working) with the result that some my icons are invisible on the homescreen. Thinks it´s going the right way, but at the moment...back to 78 Let´s see the next releases.
Flashed it over Stingray Nightlies 60, then I flashed Gapps 10.5 after for safe measure, works like a champ. No issues so far.
There is a Stingray version available but when I flashed it my 4g stopped working. I'm at work right now and can't connect to wifi but I will try when I get home. For now I am back on Stingray nightly # 63 but will be trying this on a regular basis until they get something that will work.
I'm pretty excited about finally getting a nightly for cornerstone
I flashed the Eos Cornerstone build and don't have the buttons to swap windows. Is this
something that's missing by design?
TIA

Installed over build #78. Working well, with the issues already mentioned. I will use it for a while and see what I think.
Team EOS does such a stellar job...we are really on the cutting edge.
On edit: the wingray Cornerstone build is a bit too unstable to use as a daily driver, but I can see that it is really coming along.
I've been running this for about a day over nightly #78 and there are a few issues that I've run into, but I'm going to continue using this as a DD unless the issues get worse.
Here are the problems I've encountered:
- the clock on the notification bar does not update. Because of the time not updating, third party clock widgets on the homescreen give a "Problem displaying widget" message
- Beating on Cornerstone (running memory hogs in all three panels) can make it force close. If it force closes, the only option is to reboot. If you try relaunching Cornerstone, the launcher force closes and Cornerstone never comes back up.
- Some WiFi issues. The notification bar shows me connected to a network that is well out of range and I cannot connect to a new network. I have to keep toggling WiFi on/off and I am eventually able to connect to another network.
- Stock live wallpapers do not size correctly - extremely zoomed in. For some reason, third party wallpapers work just fine.
- Lockscreen works sometimes and sometimes it doesn't
In addition to these problems, which are more of an inconvenience than catastrophic issues, here are some things that may be reported as "issues", but are not truly issues:
- the density of the main screen changes when Cornerstone windows are showing. Apps at the extreme right and left edges of the home screen will not show when the two extra windows are showing, but will show in full screen mode.
- if an app is coded as strictly a tablet app without resizing, it cannot run in the small windows, only the main panel.
- you can only run one instance of an app
EDIT: It looks like some of the clock/wifi issues were fixed by reflashing Cornerstone and GApps without wiping cache.
is anyone else's headphone jack not working now under the EOS Cornerstone nightly 1? Audio is playing for me through the speakers and only the speakers.

I flashed the wingray nightly and I didn't have any problem till now!
The limit of only one instance for each app can be a little annoying but not a real problem.
If I won't find serious bugs this will be my daily
My headphones were working fine this morning when I was watching the Rum Diary on the train. I'll try to test with more apps later.
Edit: Confirmed, my headphones work across the board. Maybe a wipe and reflash is in order fir those having issues.

I agree, but still, a very cool app with a lot of potential. Knocks out my Calender and gmail Widgets and apps. Force close problems. Would like to get window switching back. Uninstalled, until next update.

I have been running cornerstone 1 over build 64 with no issues what so ever. Here's what I did when flashing from build 60. Flashed 64, flashed gapps 10.5, wiped cache and dev cache, rebooted. After reboot, rebooted back into recovery and flashed conerstone 1 and gapps10.5, wiped again rebooted and everything is working flawlessly. It is running extremely well with the kuma kernal by rogue. What I have found is if you are having issues with cornerstone just reflash it with gapps and it will usually fix the issue.

I tried conerstone-2 and it worked OK for the most part but the HDMI interface did not move audio to the TV and left the output on the built in speakers. I will give the next release another look as I believe that it has advantages.

Is anyone else having difficulty downloading the 2.0 rom?
This is the general discussion thread for Android 4.1.x Jelly Bean for A500.
CM10 randomblame's Jellytime
CM10 civato's JB 4.1.2 FLEX v6supercharged
CM10 pjsports's rom
CM10 builds from wds :unmaintained
Jelly Bean Gapps:
Latest gapps
Gapps full list.
Troubleshooting:
The unlocked ICS bootloader is required.
If you encounter an error during the flashing process use another recovery, TWRP is known to cause problem with this rom, a CWM based recovery should do it.
If you have problems with the Google Play Store after a bit, uninstall updates for it.
If you want to avoid the lockscreen bug, you can disable it in settings-security.
Report bugs & issues with your attached logcat in the development thread.
How to logcat?
I haven't tested all features yet. The only thing that does not work is face unlock so far.

runs really smooth this is awesome, but I can't get google play store to open, going to try and reflash GAPPS.
@lowsum, thanks for taking the initiative.
I will ask that you maintain the OP, providing some info ie FAQ, links for gapps etc
Will get a thread opened up in dev later today...
You guys may need to track down a better jb gapps package to use, I think the one listed in the thread is causing a lot of the reported issues...
Only issue...
Excellent start... so impressed!!
Only issues I have is with percentage battery not showing in status bar and an invisible slide on wake up. It works but can't see it... a little tricky but no deal breaker.
Huge congrats on a fine and rapid effort!
*EDIT* Odd... as if by magic, the slider is back! Only thing I think I tried was rebooting a few times AND turning off BOTH screen animations on wake / lock... Weird, but happy now!
My test results
Flashed CM10+gapps.jb.20120717. GMail and some other Google apps are not included and you'll need to get those separately from the Play Store.
SOFTWARE: Market apps did not auto restore; but all of them were able to be manually installed with no errors. I used ICSBrowser with Thor's ICS ROM...this app does not work in JB. GoogleNow, Netflix, and YouTube work great. Alternate launchers also work great.
HARDWARE: The rotation lock toggle doesn't work, but there is a quick setting option for that anyway. Sound works flawlessly. External Seagate 500GB hard drive works. Acer USB mouse works. Acer BT keyboard works. DSLR Controller works with my Canon EOS Rebel XT as far as reading the memory card; but cannot capture images which was no different in ICS. I could not get a GPS lock with GPS status nor could the Navigation app get GPS.
I have not tested any games yet. I'll load up some of my favorites tonight or tomorrow and report back.
THIS IS EASILY A DAILY DRIVER. Many many many thanks to WDS!

as for the hardware rotation lock, i need to port my code over. as my birthday is now over, i hope to have some time in the next week to do it.
@waydownsouth: My pleasure, I will maintain this thread no problem. That's the least I can do. Keep it up, it's working amazingly well already.
On my side GPS doesn't work, lockscreen sometime disappears and like most rom since ICS there's some screen flickering noticable on low brightness and dark color (kernel related I think). Battery percentage is also not showing in status bar. I had a couple of browser crash, but it was with Quick ICS Browser wich has been updated to support JB.

There's a lot of CM9 code still to be ported to CM10, things will get better as things go on.
GPS is still very broken, there have been some permissions changes in how the gps lib communicates with the native proprietary daemon... I have a workaround in mind, just need to get it implemented...

Thanks mate..this is far above expectation for the early release..great job.. :good:
If you have problems with the Google Play Store after a bit, uninstall updates for it. I was able to use it after having problems as flashing GApps didn't help.

Maybe? not tested, can check in a few hours when I get home...
This is an awesome ROM! Thanks to everyone that has put work into this. Just to report on three issues I have found:
-Gmail app crashes every darn time. The app seems to be a hot mess.
-The unlock screen seems to go "invisible" after the tablet has been on for a while. You kinda have to guess where the button is and swipe.
-I use a bluetooth keyboard. Normally the touch keyboard goes hidden when BT keyboard is connected, but not in this AOSP ROM.
Thanks guys for the awesome work.
For a first build this is awesome! Even camera works!!
I'm using it as a daily.
I do have the following issues. (This is not a complain, I'm thoroughly impressed with this rom, this is just me reporting the issues i've experienced so far)
1) GPS doesn't work.
2) Gmail, calander, and Reddit is fun GP crash occasionally. Here is the gmail logcat: https://www.dropbox.com/s/taavl8kacv23q2z/gmail-logcat.txt
I think this is those same memory leak issues we had in the ICS rom.
3) after a while the lockscreen becomes "invisible", but still functions. In the mean time I just disabled it.
4) When importing photos from a DSLR into gallery over usb the new photos do import to the tablet but do not get added to gallery. It took an hour and two reboots before they showed up (no matter what i tried).
5) despite being set to "wifi always on" wifi disconnects during sleep
6) Plugging in a usb keyboard does not hide the onscreen keyboard
Awesome work fantastic rom!!

i tested it for the whole day today and i had all of the same problems. in any case though, thank you very much for all your hard work! : )
