2 Q's (multitouch keyboard and steel) - Vibrant Themes and Apps

1) I'm running eugene's macnut R12 right now. fantastic rom, but unfortunately the droid multitouch keyboard wasn't included in R12 (as opposed to a few previous versions)
I'm in love with that keyboard. I'm so much faster using that then swype, believe it or not. I've seem other threads on the keyboard but nothing I've seen seems to work with my phone?
Anyone have an APK or anything to help me out with getting multitouch on my phone?
2) Not much of a question, but why is Steel internet browser so underated? I've been using it for months. Since my mytouch 3g, it's been such a solid browser.

I pulled a MT KB .apk from a Rom. It works on R12, but the fonts on the keys is hella small. Try pulling it from a previous Rom or I could send you one.

Running Obsidian and couldn't get this kb to work, anyone else have any ideas?
This is by far the best kb, I first saw it in R10.

Pardon my ignorance, but who's gothroid?

Bumping this.
Went through the .zips from the Droid multitouch threads I found on this site, no luck with them ;(
The last thing from making me love Macnut R12 is not having the keyboard with it, halpp!

tried pulling the droid multitouch apk from Macnut R10 and installing it on my phone.
it attempts to install it but after a few seconds it says its unsucessful ;(

Steel is my go to browser. Most comfortable and lite for me. But I haven't seen an update in ages. I think it's a little orphan appy.
Don't blame me, blame my keyboard's autocorrection algorithm.

Did you try installing it like a system app (through root explorer) or a normal 3rd party apk?

The Droid X MT keyboard that works for the vibrant, both 2.1 and 2.2 has been posted here. The 2.2 is skinned to look like the samsung keyboard only, but 2.1 has both the original and samsung look.

im running eugene's froyo macnut R12

Hi,
I'm not sure why you lost apps, but I can guarantee its not my zip. Here's exactly what my zip file does:
Code:
delete SYSTEM:app/LatinIME.apk
copy_dir PACKAGE:app SYSTEM:app
copy_dir PACKAGE:lib SYSTEM:lib
and if you look inside those folders, /system/app only has dxkeyboard.apk and /system/lib only has libjni_latinime.so
If you run any of the new 2.2 kernels from eugene or team whiskey that have been built from hacked i9000 source, that might be causing your problems. I've had /data wiped just by rebooting into recovery using various 2.2 kernels.
Good luck, cheers, =)

^^ im not upset at all bro, you dont know how happy i am to have multitouch on this rom.
i undrstand having a custom rom some random/weird stuff happens, i just need to run titanium backup more often thanks!

[ROM]mycy-6.0.0v3

I wasn't going to release this since I don't consider it a real rom, but since there aren't really many roms in here to play with, I figured I'd share.
What it is.
Essentially a themed version of Eugene373's CyangogenMod froyo rom with a few minor changes.
Special thanks to Eugene for getting this working for us and of course cyanogen and the rest of teamdouche or anybody else who helped somewhere along the line.
my changes:
mytheme - just the theme I've been using since the early g1 days.
pngcrushed most apks
added ability to blacklist numbers from call log
updated hosts file (adfree)
updated su/superuser to 2.2.2
maybe something else
I can't guarantee updates or support
Flash at your own risk
want to donate? Find someone else to give it to (preferably someone who deserves it).
your gonna want to go into your cyanogenmod settings and change the colors.

Lol,sure it works but you cant copy or delete anything in /system/app folder.
Try to delete something,it disappears from root explorer but the file is still there.
really liking the theme on this rom! working great only thing i would request as with any Froyo rom is apps2ext instead of the froyo apps2FAT32 but hey this thing works and works fast!

of course... you can't mount system folder EXCEPT in recovery mode. So terminal emu, root explorer, or whatever app won't help you at all. that's the way it is with all roms on the MTS. I doubt it will ever be different, unfortunately. So, you'll aways be tied to your computer unlike the G1/MT3G.
Not sure if hard spl or anthing else will help, may be someone with more knowledge can explain.
btw, great rom! I like the theme additions. Froyo is getting more stable each week and it's thanks to devs like yourself. Every port helps! Keep it up, man!

no its not functional and when i used it on my g1 i didnt like it! if you ever reboot dont touch your phone until its done checking the sdcard otherwise all of the shortcuts you had that were apps2fat32 would be the stupid icon that says its not on your phone! it annoyed me thats why i love apps2ext
but i will admit that i had a bunch of apps installed without the low memory warning and also i was getting 7.9-8.0 MFLOPS using linpack! so the rom is fast fast fast!
I actually ended up having to remove this rom. Even though it failed on me, still one of my favorite roms thus far. I nandroided back to mr1v4. Apps2fat32 was working great for 2 days. Last night plugged in to charge, all was well. This morning, my apps2fat32 had stopped working, all apps were on the phone memmory (which was so full that doing anything caused a force close) i wasnt able to correct the problem nor uninstall anything. Fresh restart resulted in force close loop. If there ends up being a new version i will definatly try again.

Anyone having a strange problem of the contacts syncing endless after you use wireless? The wireless could have nothing to do with it but that's always when it starts for me and I have to reflash the rom to fix it.

Thank you kindly, for the response. Headway must have been made on this rom, though, because all of the others that I tried, apps definitely only installed on the internal memory. Ya gotta love the ext partition setup versus the fat32 route, anyways! Why change up after all of the success of all the other roms? And what is the deal with silent mode not being available on all the froyo roms I've used? Lol. That's kinda a big thing, I'd suppose. Either way, the devs are kicking ass on what's available.
I really like this rom, thanks

I think all freely available apps should be left out. They can all be installed afterwords... Even swype to be honest.
Downloading atm i'll letcha know anything i can think of though...
I think if you have the ability to you should try and port over Amon-RAs recovery from the hero g1... It has a Console in the recovery kernel...
I'm going to try and figure that out but it'll be a long time before I get anywhere. Haha.
that's not really related to THIS rom persay but I think would be awesome cause then we can manipulate /system/app while in recovery rather than requiring adb...
The rom itself... i'll get to you after i play with it :x
Wifi tethering included doesn'twork I had to replace it with this one to get it going...
Any idead if we can get some froyo apps working on this? I would like to have the froyo gmail and google talk app on it.
Using it and liking it very much, excellent job. I don't, suppose it has live wallpapers?
any luck on wire(less) tethering?

I second that! Id much rather use amonRA if it were possible just cus its setup correctly for the way our a2sd works. It still uses /system/sd/, where clockwork is setup to use /sd-ext/. Ill gladly help test it out!

Well there is a lot of bloatware.
Peeps, stocks, mymodes, friend stream, so many more I can't remember.
I've also noticed some of my videos in my gallery don't show a preview. It is a white image and it looks like it may be currupt but it still plays.
I did downgrade from a froyo rom so that may be a problem. I did everything I normally do to install a rom...

Aren't those part of the reason people still use Espresso? Besides those fancy widgets?
Ill make another version with EVERYTHING unnecessary removed.
instead of adding the mymode themes maybe you can add a separate update with the themes in it..I love the espresso interface because of the theme and the genus button...

[REQ] Stock Keyboard

I know everyone loves SWYPE but does anyone have the stock Samsung Vibrant keyboard apk? I flashed Eugenes Vibrant9 and the stock keyboard is not on here. SWYPE is great but I really like the stock keyboard.
I am also interested in this... as well as the stock ANDROID keyboard.
anyone have any ideas?
Personally I prefer the HTC keyboard. Search for HTC IME mod. It is a gear keyboard with lots of features including volume control moves cursor... Google search is my friend when it comes to this tweaking stuff
Just look in a previous version of eugene's vibrant roms, Vibrant 1 probably has it

I pulled the file from the Deoxed ROM listed in the Vibrant Bible, dropped it into system/app using Root Explorer, ran fix permissions, and then rebooted. Worked wonderfully.
For the life of me I cannot find the LatinIME.apk file in anomalous3's Deodexed ROM (version 1.2). I feel like either I keep overlooking it or it has been renamed. Does anyone have some input? Thanks guys!

If you're looking for the SAMSUNG keyboard, the file name is AXT9IME or something close to that (at work and brain fuddled), and it's in system/app.
i tried to copy it, using root explorer to system/app
and fixed permisions and rebooted and i still cant get the samsung t9 working

Request (multi-touch keyboard)

I've been looking around and I can't seem to find the particular keyboard Im wanting. On the Auxora rom there is a multitouch keyboard I really like. What I like about it is that the keys are larger than the rest and that goes well with my shrek fingers. Can someone please point me in the right direction for this. I have installed and flashed every multitouch keyboard I can find on the forums and so far none of them are identical to the one packaged with auxora.

Axura uses the gingerbread KB... there is a version in the development section. You could also just take the .apk from the Azura rom and put it in system/app
I would if I knew what the apk was named. I don't wanna screw anything up.

Hey, like the other guy said your best bet would be to just pull the keyboard app and push it to your /system/app using root explorer. You really can't mess anything up. Just make a copy of the app that you are overwriting then overwrite it. Usually the keyboard is labeled "LATINIME.apk" or something along those lines.

Can you install touchwiz over axura?

I really do love the axura roms but I left to try other roms. Im currently using nerov3 with touchwiz and I just like the overall layout of it. Is there a way to install touchwiz launcher into newer versions of axura. I read about touchwizgtg but wasn't sure if it would work

There's a file in my thread at the bottom of the goodies section that installs both of the Nero v3 launchers. You could always unzip it and push them manually too.
EDIT: There's a link in my signature.

I believe you just push it to system/app and reboot.

I have tried installing the GTG launcher on several of the new axura roms and when I did I started getting FC's on the com.phone something. When I removed it the FC would go away. Went back to JL5 for now.

It worked fine on Axura 2.2, but, these new ones he has released it has not worked for me. Give it a shot though. It is a pretty easy fix if it doesn't work. I used root explorer to put the file in system\app. If it causes FC's then just delete it. Seems like there are so many different variation's in these phones it might work for you.
I also tried to use root explorer and get the process com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly. Once i force closed it , the touchwiz launcher works but I will wait and see if anybody have this fixed,
