Just a quick question that I am unable to find the answer anywhere for..
With NON-HERO Android ROM's one is able to set the "send on enter" option in the text message settings. Is this available at all with Hero Roms? I have used 3 Hero ROMS, and none have this option. Maybe somebody could point me in the right direction.. thanks
i don't think the mms.apk by rvg151 works with hero, but you could look for it in the dev section and see if it is compatible, that would give you the option. i don't know if there is another way, since hero doesn't have a keyboard, the functionality would have to be added into the hero mms.apk.

i figured that much. also HATE how the screen doesnt rotate when you open the keyboard unless theres a text field. hero is BEYOND annoying when its on a Dream. Back to CM!
Hi...
Just downloaded and installed Myn's Android for my HTC Touch... im having a hard time getting use to it...i guess it will come with time... but in the meantime... may be can someone tell me how to get to the dialer if i'm several levels deep in a screen, example, i'm currently downloading an app or viewing a map...and i'd like to call someone?
So far the only option is i have to back out using the camera button like 5-6 screens to get to my home screen and then click dialer... which to me is a bit unintuitive ... i've tried all combinations of buttons ( holding multiple secs too) and i couldnt find a way to get back to the home or even better dial out but clicking the send button ( which i'm used to in winmo)
Also, how do i access the running tasks? or do the tasks close eveytime i back out? I guess i need a how to use android 101..

The green key should work...if it's not you can hold in the camera button to go straight to home and click your dialer icon. For running tasks, you need to download a task manager like advanced task manager or taskkiller. Search for tatnai's FAQ to get started. I'm sure a lot of your questions will be answered there.

Enjoy!
hold camera button for a couple sec and it will back all the way out to the homescreen without having to hit it several times.
Both the camera and green button does not have the long press function... so it does not bring the Home screen... like i saw on some youtube android tutorial... I'll check the Tatnai's FAq to see .. .may be its just a settings on the Myn which is not activated by default.. i have the RLS version 4 of MYN... (not sure which Android version it is though....) sorry i'm learning as i post the questions and skim through the various threads

a reboot fixed my problem... thanks!
Hi,
First off thanks to all the developers. I bought a DHD a couple of weeks ago. With the help of some very useful noob guides (thanks again) its all rooted and booted, out of its shackles and ready to fly as it was meant to. I have put cyanogen6.1.0 RC2 on it and I love it.
The only issue I am having so far is to do with the keyboard. I have fat fingers and often mis type or get mis auto corrected. to fix I have to tap on the area of text I need to correct. Problem is fat fingers mean cant put the cursor exactly where I want and a few seconds of unnecessary frustration. On my previous Magic I could scrol with the roller ball.
Anyways to conclude my essay, the HTC sense keyboard that was originally on my phone had arrows that would allow me to move around (good for fat fingers) the cyanogen keyboard doesnt (not so fat finger friendly).
Is there a way I can find the HTC sense Keyboard apk and use on the cyanogen? Where do I find this file?
Sorry for the long post,
here you go this is as close as youll get to sense keyboard

Never fear things are much, much better in Gingerbread. Cyanogenmod 7 will alleviate all your woes. I've been told by the developers that it even cures cancer and of course there will be no world hunger if everyone has Gingerbread to eat.
Sent from my Gingerbread eating Desire HD.
When is CM 7 out?
@ fkofilee thanks muchos
Fat finger loving, cancer busting, sweet gingerbread crumbs in the shape of cyanogen 7 for my DHD bird! boom boom! You have my attention.
I just tried the HTC_IME_hi22. I have selected it (ticked it) in my 'Language and Keyboard' and in the settings tried to mess about with swipe gestures to move between words. No luck. The keyboard seems exactly the same as it was before and fat finger issue still persists. Do I need to somehoe deactivate the old keyboard? can I not find the apk from my sense rom and drop it into cyanogen rom?
I see you have enabled the keyboard, but have you selected it? Press and hold on text entry box and choose "Input method", then select "HTC_IME mod". Your new keyboard will now be used.
Elementary my dear watson! Thanks,
Thats exactly what I had not done! the app looks the part, but still no luck from the finger swipe and navigation arrows. Ive had a look at swype and one or two others. they dont have this navigation either. Fat fingers crossed for gingerbread
to serve this key can be changed, thanks
HTC Sense Keyboard for Incredible S/CM7
I realize this is the Desire HD forum, but I thought I would post here first before starting a new thread. I've been searching around for a while, and along with this thread, I found another (link below), that provides links to and HTC sense keyboard .apk that can be used instead of the stock CM7 keyboard. I used the Sense keyboard for almost a year on my Incredible S before I installed CM7, and so really miss the long press for special characters, as well as the auto-correct feature I came to rely on so much.
My question is, If I download and install one of these .apk's (either the one in this thread, or the thread I linked), SHOULD it work on the Incredible S, or do I need to find an .apk specific to my phone. I tired installing the one from the link, but when trying to switch to it in the Messaging app, it just force closes right away.
Apologies if there is already a thread related to this for the Incredible S. I did some searching but couldn't find anything. And of course, Thanks in advance for any help you folks can provide.

Guys,
Does anyone knows how can I install Gingerbread keyboard on my DHD/stock ROM/2.3.5/sense 3.0 (of course I have rooted, ENG OFF, S- OFF?

Seriously dude? There is a Q&A thread for things like this for one and yout question has nothing to do with themes.
You can just download gingerbread keyboard from the market and enable it from settings.

Got it.

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but the HTC_IME_hi22 actually worked on my RaZr. Only problem, there is a bit of a gap on the right side. So the keyboard seems to be slightly 'left aligned' badly put.
Can any1 help me with this. Am on RaZr, qHD screen.
Hi all, I moved to Modaco ROM and i must TrackBall wake,i don't have power button. please help
Firstly, wrong forum bud. Secondly, TB wake hasn't been implemented for MCR. There are several GB roms in this forum that support TB wake/unlock.
post in the right subforum next time and to answer your question flash a different rom
lol nice timing hollow
Sorry about posting here,I don't really know where to post it.
Second, other roms doesn't suitable for me,I'm facing with a lot of problems with others :/
no any application for this?
Widgetlocker
It have the option to make trackball unlock not wake.
I am right?
You can use anyunlock ( its on the market, dev is here on the forum)
It wakes on trackball and on the volume buttons on 2.2
and
wakes on volume buttons on 2.3
Works great for me!
It really useful app, I just hoped to find way to use Trackball
Or just send your phone in to HTC and pay the repair fee so you don't have to rig something up.
Ok i have an old Htc hero lying around after my evo upgrade that had a broke digitizer.... all i wanting to do is make it where i can you use home to unlock so i can use it as an MP3 player... it was running aosp build last i believe... with vanilla lockscreen... can anyone help me make it where the home key unlocks it..from there i can use the trackball to navigate.. any help would be greatly appreciated and ill give small reward also...
is there anything i can flash in recovery to remove lock screen, or a rom that doesnt include one.. or can i remove it from one of the roms i have and flash it? just some ideas?

I got it. Flash aospCMod or CM7 (has long press volume for media next/prev while screen is off) then get app "button remapper" and remap your phone key to media_play_pause with state wake (works while screen off), then in cm settings allow quick unlock with whatever button you want (menu,trackball,etc.) For fun you can also "freeze" the dialer and other apps so the OS won't operate them, use titanium backup. Turn off data in settings. Let me know if you need more guidance.

hmm i think i see what your saying...your saying do a fresh install of aosp so that i can get into it and change the settings.. sound about right? hmm food for thought a fresh flash would land me having to touch the android to start set up
edit...nvm im a dummy...just dont flash gapps..lol
...ill paint a picture what im doing... i have a very nice stainless steel plate ive made for the dash in a mud toy that im going to mount the phone behind and just expose the screen and track ball..from the im running it to an amplifier...ive run this setup before in a jeep...the hero is permanently mounted in the dash..lol..sounds goofy..but just a toy..and the phone was free with upgrade when i got it...just dont have the touchscreen part on it anymore...

what ROM were you on before? Hope you have a nand backup...
I now fully realize your intent, and massive roadblock to get there. It should be doable, but maybe by someone with more time or more ability than I. You would essentially have to create and update.zip for YOUR current ROM so you don't have to wipe /data. The update would have to have the hard keys remapped already built into the ROM, which is not that hard. This way, since you would be flashing over, you would not have to go thru setup. And in theory once the ROM loaded, the key mapping would already be done. AFAIK nobody has ever done the volume long press but cyanogen, and since I/m not a fan of kanging and wouldn't know where to look, you would have to remap differently. Like phone key could be play/pause, menu could be next, home could be previous, etc. This is all theory, but it should work.
AWESOME! I just re-read the thread where I learned how to remap, and I forgot you can do this with ADB while in your ROM and then reboot, no new flashing Go read this awesome thread, thanks to Decad3nce >>> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695936
All you need to do is pull heroc-keypad.kl and make the edits to the keys you want and then push it back.
Hmm...sure would be nice if I could just remove the start up menu and the lock screen.. I figured out how to rename keys on my evo.. My issue is getting past setup and past the lock screen...thank y'all for the.help..im gonna.mess with this during my spare time...for now ill just use an old droid I have..also remapping of keys isn't real important since I can use track ball to navigate. Solution for getting past the setup menu and lock screen is my goal.

Seems there is an option in CM for menu unlock? Just thinking out loud, but that setting would be in some XML file I'd think so the setting could be changed in that and pushed back somehow. Definitely beyond me as to that exact process or what apk or what XML that would reside in.
~maybe I set it too high...
OT - did you say JEEP!?!? That's where the TJ in my name comes from.
lol, me too with the TJ, cool. #offtopic
@OP - If you go read that thread I linked, I am almost 100% that if you change the "state" of any of those to "WAKE_DROPPED" it will unlock the phone. Any sense ROM would have menu set to do that already, as well as any CM rom. As for removing the lockscreen and setup. The setup is an apk IIRC so yes you could, but the lockscreen is tied to the world clock AFAIK, so you wouldn't want to delete that. I found an app that disables it but only for sense 2.1. Here's that link:

i know on hero sense roms some of them u can press menu to unlock by default are there any like that on the evo also i found an amazing program for pc the other day its called "android injector" what it does is u can force install apks onto your phone simply by dragging and droping onto your sd card from a computer so no need to mess with adb or having to dig through a file manager on your phone.
i found this on androidandme.com, and heres the link.
