[Q] Gingerbread keyboard - myTouch 4G Themes and Apps

Has anybody tried flashing the gingerbread keyboard on to their MT4G?
I flashed it, but every time i go to press a key, i get a FC telling me "(process com.android.inputmethod.latin) has stopped unexpectedly."
Has this happened to anyone else? is there any way to fix it? thank you for any help =)

theres a thread going on about it here (same problem):

happened to me but now you can download "gingerbread keyboard for android" in the market for free
virtually identical and better than the stock touch input keyboard hands down!

I download that keyboard and am loving it. The developer also made a free gingerbread theme too that works pretty well. I think the developer name is Stevey Lin...not sure, not by the phone right now.

It would be fine on your dell streak, probably not on a mytouch 4g though.

You can install an alternate market called blackmart, and downlod it from there. I'm using it and I'm really happy! Luck!!
I have the Sony Ericsson swiping keyboard from the new Xperia line, i flashed it from another ROM and it works flawlessly for me
I'm using the Swype keyboard for months now and I'm very happy that I bought it.
It appears fast when I need it, the layout is perfect and I stand amazed with its predictions (it seems to know exactly what is the next word I want to write). The more I use it, the more it improves itself, since it learns the words I write.
It's pretty easy to start using it. After the initial installation, you need to download one (or more) language packs (with the words of the language you chose). The configuration screen explains itself.

sorry for a newb question.. But is it possible to use rom manager to flash this keyboard on a stock non rooted vibrant? or rom manager is for rooted phones only?

as black as night (or like the BlackFroyo themed keyboards)
Yes I get fc too. This happend earlier today when I flashed a diff multi-touch keyboard. The problem is that this is only compatible with 2.1. We need someone to port this to 2.2.
It's an app, so there should be away to do this without root, but this requires root.
This is for 2.2, not eclair.
Post 1 updated. Go to that other thread... i sesrched, but i thought it would be here... not the dev section.
text prediction (@ least in spanish) isn't that great compared to some other KB's but nonetheless this is a good sign of things to come
I stumbled on this this morning. I have to say, this is the best keyboard I've used in portrait mode. Not counting Swype of course.

Built in screenshot

Ok so ive someone else post about this before just canteen remember if it was on another forums or not.
Ok so earlier today i was messaging someone and i was trying to get out the message screen but my phone was taking too long or i was just impatient but anyway i kept hitting the home button then i hit the back button and all of a sudden i heard a shutter sound. Sooooo i went into my gallery and there it was a seperate folder just for "screenshots" and mind you i do have the shoot me app and the folder for that is "shoot me". Has anyone else ever experienced this? I thought it was so cool that there is/was a built in screenshot but just wish i knew how to do it again i was so excited!!

I've experienced this 2 times, I searched everywhere in how to do it, but people keep saying they didn't on accident, we need a dev to answer this question

this happened to me a few days ago, as well. thought it was a hidden TW bionix-v function. I tried a number of different key presses to no avail. somebody has to know what the deal is, right?
Seen this alot here but no one can seem to remember what they did to make it happen...its weird..

I posted this same question in the axura beauty thread. I thought it was a special addition to the axura rom. I found out that its not a rom special but its actually an android feature, only problem I haven't got an actual answer on how to access this feature nor do I know what to look for. I have googled this several times and all I get are results telling me about drocap or shootme and how to use the ddms in order to screenshot without root.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I know for a fact how to do this. I don't think you can force a screenshot with any soft touch keys but you'll notice the screenshot goes off when you're exiting an app/browser and the system freezes up briefly and when you try to hit home on the frozen screen it takes the screenshot. It's happened to me on a few occasions and I distinctly told myself to remember what was happening when the screenshot goes off and turns out it always goes off when my screen is frozen and I hit my home key, while thinking my back button wasn't registered and in fact, was registered and I just got impatient and hit my home button.
I've got a feeling it's a bug log kind of thing. Every post I've seen about it mentions that the phone locked up, and the user pressed buttons rapidly. Sure, we can take Screenshots! You have to have a crashing app to do it though.
This topic has been covered soooo many times not only here on XDA but google.

If you have a vibrant running stock froyo.ka6 you can try this screen capture app from the market:

The only one that does NOT require rooting.

Hmmmm it seems like StevenJCarney might be correct. Like he said it seems like it happens when peoples phones lock up & it could be a bug.
Hope it isnt a bug & someone is able to figure it out.
Same exact thing here. It really sucks an app has to crash to use it.

If you have a rooted phone you can just use an app called screenshot which works perfectly. And it's free.

Would be interesting to see how well it works.
You can get swype currently from their site, if you miss swipe, has a couple bugs on TB but works fairly well.

Im still using swype but it bugs me that I have to use handscent to get the auto caps and auto spacing to work for texting.
Maybe htc purposely built their messaging app this way so people wouldnt want swype and would look for an alternative?
HTC phones are also the only phones you need to switch swype off then reselect it to get it to work after a reboot.
FlexT9 works perfect in the mean time. Seems to do the same stuff, but FlexT9 has handwriting recognition + swype + voice input + QWERTY + Compact QWERTY.

Nope, Swype did that on the OG Droid as well. Was one of the reasons I stopped using it. Using Flex T9 now and loving it.
I've been playing with that on the doubleshot port. It's cool.

Would there be any way to port just this mod to the Thunderbolt? I'm using a modded version of Swype that works great but I think this would be even better.

Keyboard issues with "I"

I have an issue with the gingerbread keyboard on Checkrom V4. Whenever I'm typing, if I press the "I" key it will insert the last full word I typed about 3/4 of the time. Sometimes I can delete the word and type an "I" ok, sometimes it will keep inserting it over and over. It only does it on CheckROM and only on the gingerbread keyboard I download from the kitchen. Anybody got any ideas why it does this or how to fix it?
TIA.
Edit: Guess I should've mentioned that it only does this when typing I by itself. It works fine if the I is in a word. Also, this is the 3rd time I've used checkrom and had this issue, with cm7, cm9, and several other ROMs flashed in between.
Sooo, any suggestions? I know this isn't a big problem but it is hella annoying.

Check the keyboard advanced setting and remove any word replacement or suggestion options.
Hope this helps!

I've actually tried that and it stopped my problem but it also turns off all other auto correct. I have no idea what's causing this but it drives me nuts just cause I can't figure it out. It also only does it on checkrom but other samsung-derived roms are fine.

Oddly i get this on stock rom keyboard but only with one app and only with one program .
Solution no as its not a keyboard i use anymore .

check if you can learn your dictionary...
just input the ''I'' as suggestion.

I went ahead and tried uninstalling and reinstalling again, but it didn't help. I have tried most of the other popular keyboards and I just really like the gingerbread keyboard. I know I'm being kinda picky here and maybe it's something I'm doing, but it's bugging me more just because I can't figure it out.

I never thought to try that before so I just added "I" to the dictionary. I'll see if that helps.
Thanks all for the suggestions/help.
