Okay, I'm fairly new around here, I haven't really posted anything, but i've been checking up on stuff for my phone and everything, I just have one question. I have the rom Nonsensikal. How can I get the keyboard from KaosFroyo V36 onto my Nonsensikal rom?
I know there is a few threads, but I would like to hear it again on this one, I would also like to change the keyboard. I know your supposed to download the keyboard you want, and on most 2.1 roms you have to change the keyboard apk to lLatinIME.apk i believe
Yeah, I'm just not sure how to go about downloading the one I want? Or, even putting it on my rom?
it really depends on what keyboard...if your are just adding one like swype or any other keyboard from the market you just install it like any other app and then go in settings/keyboard and check the box to enable it. Then long press on a text input area such as an email or any where you would type and it will bring up an option for input method where you can choose the keyboard you want to use. If you want to use the droidx keyboard or another "hacked keyboard" then there should be instructions in the thread where you get it for installing it.

Okay, Maybe you can help me out here then. Which keyboard is used in KaosFoyo V36? because that's the keyboard I want. and when I looked at the droidX keyboard. all it says is push it to "location" but how do I do that?

about 4 posts down, there is a flashable .zip you can use rom manager to flash. Once your phone boots back up, long press in the box you type, and select multi-touch for the imput method.
droidx-signed.zip i beleive is the name of the file.
Further along in the post is a grey type version, though i have not been able to get that one to work, aborts install and FC's on my constantly.. so I am just sticking with the white one.

again, you don't put swype on a keyboard. swype is its own independent keyboard. either you have it installed or not. if it is installed (came with your rom) you can choose it like you choose any of the other keyboards.
top and bottom? again i don't understand how best to help - you need to answer my questions i asked above (they are asked for very specific reasons). also a picture of what you are talking about will help.
I don't know what version of swype the community rom uses but i don't like it. I like the ED01 swype simply because its multi-touch but when I install it i get force closes. can someone help?
First change the keyboard you are using to another besides swype. You do this by opening a text entry field and then longpressing the screen in that field then select input method and pick another keyboard. If you don't have another download a free one from the market.
Then delete swype from the system/app folder. Paste the other apk you have of swype into that same folder.
After that you may or may not have to restart.

I'd love to do that but when I tried with root explorer it kept saying its read only
... then press the button on the top right to turn that off....
hey that worked thanks... but now its force closing just like it was in my op
What worked for me, back in Beta Swype, was to Delete the Swype APK from the App folder and the Swype core from the Lib file(i think that's were it was)
then do a fresh install...then reboot and i was all good
I think that might be the problem. The comm rom might be using that version of swype. I want the one that came with the ED01 so basically I need to do the opposite of what you did
I cant imagine this being that hard to do..Then again I cant do it so who knows.
i mainly want to see if this gives us a full screen stock keyboard in landscape when the mod that removes on screen bar and dot menu and enables the multitask button as menu is in use.
On apps that had the virtual menu bar it makes the keyboard not use up the area in which the menu bar was located..Here's a photo example(notice the right of the keyboard)

trust me,i looked before posting this..The file on that link doesn't work.I removed and pushed to my system and set appropriate permissions.The phone just wouldn't recognize it at all.
I am looking for an HTC IME mod keyboard like I used on my evo. No arrows, but obviously not the correct resolution. If I posted it here from pc when I have access, would someone be able to resize it? I have searched, and only Smart Keyboard Pro comes close, but not close enough. It is worth mentioning that I use the "phonepad" keyboard exclusively. It is just an apk that I can download to an unrooted phone without pushing this, or pushing that. I downloaded the one that I have, but like I said, wrong resolution. Thanks

I'm on CM10 (9/19 build) and using Swype as my default keyboard. I love the quick reply option for texts, however, the stock mms.apk causes the return key to be the emoticon shortcut and I am not a big fan of that. I've searched all over and, so far, have only found the following solutions:
- install a modified mms.apk which gives me a return key, but causes me to lose the quick reply option.
- install a modified latinIME.apk which gives me a return key on the stock keyboard, but not on Swype.
- make a template that inserts a new line (with a character on the new line, since templates can't be blank) which seems like a lazy workaround.
Is there any way I can get the best of both worlds here, with quick reply and a Swype return key?

smiley for a return is really retarded. how did they ever come up with this. so where do i find a modded mms.apk? or i have to compile one?
i went to look for a pre-existing mms.apk on my phone, but didn't find one. thought it should be \system\apps\ - it's not. where then.
is mms.apk specific to CM flavor, or the phone model, or what?
In MMS hit menu, go to Settings. Then at the very bottom. Soft keyboard type ->show enter key....
is the soft keyboard setting from Mms.APK system wide?

i don't have this option - maybe it's only on ICS? i'm on gingerbread cm7.2. but also - do we think that this will affect messaging apps system wide? namely - i'm not using the stock sms app, but go-SMS, which does give me an enter key. my need for enter-key is primarily in weixin/wechat.
cheers.
Found Enter Key !!
Guys I have found easy way in ICS & JB may work in KK as well (Not yet checked)
Just hit and hold Shift key [look like up arrow] You will see ENTER instead of SMILEY. :good:
Don't Forget to say thanks if it works !!!
i stopped fiddling with swype a long time ago - semc was the answer
i had updated my ROM to something based on the stock ROM, and the sony ericsson stock app is swype-like, WITH an enter key and multi-language selections, so i could stop fiddling with swype, who were hostile to user-requests, and wasting everyone's time with their licensing.
semc_intl_keyboard_textinput-tng.apk
this is from xperia ray st18i, modded stock gingerbread. i haven't tried it on anything else, but suspect it might work on any/most androids.
hope this saves someone some time wasted with swype.
cheers.
This module permanently disables prediction/autocomplete/completion bar within SwiftKey keyboard.
Future versions/updates of SwiftKey might break this mod. Tested working agains versions 5.0.1.87, 5.0.2.4, 5.0.3.26, and 5.0.4.93. EDIT: No longer true as of v0.2 which should be futureproof.
Disable SwiftKey Prediction is available from Xposed Module Repository (source).
It also disables flow. Is that suppose to happen?

It is because whole prediction is disabled and flow depends on it. Solution for using flow would be only hiding the bar (while prediction/completion would still work) but I have no real intention for this as I don't use it and to get rid of all prediction effects, disabling it fully is still required. Maybe Suggestions Toggle would work better for you (but I don't use flow so I don't know...).
@moneytoo thanks for the mod. Now its perfect.
Anyway to make long press space to toggle keyboards like Google stock keyboard?
I'm just curious but why did you want to create this mod? Prediction is the main attraction of SwiftKey. I mean, otherwise I would use any other keyboard. Just wondering and no offense meant.

I want a nice looking black/dark keyboard (the stock one on my S5 is light). My primary language is Czech which (thanks to Czech declension) can never work as good as in English. I do not write texts anyway - I use it mainly for entering urls in browser so I prefer not to waste screen space as I want to see more search suggestions in browsers (or addresses history) etc.
I hate to be one of those people that asks irrelevant things in a thread, but since you are familiar with the inner workings of the Swiftke.apk, I figured you might be able and willing to help. The one thing I dislike about swiftkey is the auto-space feature that it has. Meaning after you type in a word, it automatically adds a space after. This is a huge pain in the butt when it comes to entering passwords and usernames. Do you know what file(s) in the apk would be responsible for this behavior? I could probably figure out how to change it, I just don't know where to look.

i thought the same when i saw this thread. that is pretty much the whole point of the keyboard (and flow for rapid typing), unless you only use it swiftkey for colorful themes lol, there are far better keyboards than swiftekey if you're only interested in themes. IMO
but you can disable the annoying automatic word correcting as i mention below (which is an annoying) while still keeping the prediction bar (which is very good just to use as spell checker too).

that only happens (i think) if you have "complete the current word" or "always insert a prediction" selected in settings >advanced>spacebar completion mode. i have mine at "always insert a space" and ironically it doesn't insert a space only when you select a word from the prediction bar.
you can keep the prediction bar enabled and stop auto prediction and adding a space (where words are automatically corrected in input field you didn't want) by selecting the option i mentioned above.

No it still happens, this is how I have it set and it still auto spaces which is annoying.

For 1 whole year I regularly contacted Swiftkey and asked to fix this they never fixed it, issue is Swiftkey is taking COPIED text as TYPED text. It should take typed words only (this is big reason behind inaccurate/unneeded word prediction). Could you do something about it?
Below is the email i wrote to Swiftkey:
There is one ANNOYING feature I found in Swiftkey. I checked this twice thrice and informing you. The problem is: Saving the words what we type is good but BAD/WORST part is, it also saves the words when you just copy text from other sources for example: Copying random text or paragraph from webpages, Ebooks and Documents. Those text are NOT TYPED by the user and those words get copied to internal dictionary of Swiftkey which I don't like to be predicted while I type. I copy some stuff from webpages to read it later but it doesn't mean that I like all the words in that copied text and it should not add in internal dictionary of swiftkey. Please fix this ASAP.
P.S. I have English and Hindi language packs installed. Experiment yourself. Just copy the below words in text file and save it. I would never use the below words ever. While typing, long press on the below words and hit 'Do not predict again'. It will not predict. But when you open the text file you saved and select and copy those words, they will simply added to the dictionary of Swiftkey and you'll see them come across while you type.

i always wanted to use Swiftkey because it looks good, but i hated the fact you can't turn prediction off. THANK YOU.
there is one minor bug though. the keyboard size gets messed up after changing the screen rotation. it ends up being either too tall or too short?
using it on stock-ish Note 3.

tnx, i hope you can fix it
I thought it was the obfuscated method name but it is still the same. Seems like this was caused by later versions of SwiftKey - my two months old version is ok. So it's either waiting whatever new version will fix that or go through changes within apk and attempt to fix "their" bug. I will probably try in the next few days but no promise - it's really low priority for me.
thanx
thank you so much, i hated that bar. Finally. I don't know why they don't offer that option. They have that option in ios. It makes me angry how unthoughtful people are.
Swift Keyboard Rotation Bug
I absolutely love this mod mixed with the fact that you can change the size of keyboard. Both of these combined allow me to go landscape and still be able to see conversation while typing. Same bug though when I rotate it resizes to all sorts of weirdness. Would be like the greatest thing ever if you could fix. I know you said low priority but I would soooo donate if u could figure out.
This Mod disables "Quick Period with double tap spacebar" as well. I reckon that is not supposed to happen.
not working on 5.1.0.60
this mod doesn't work for me anymore on the new version 5.1.0.60
Great fix but unfortunately doesn't seem to work on latest version of SwiftKey, tried to downgrade to 5.0.5.95 but can't install previous version somehow .. Waiting for some update mate
