the default android keyboard, HTC_IME, or betterkeyboard, or other? and why do you choose to use that one? feel free to move this theead if its in the wrong place, i just want to see everyones opinions.
i use betterkeyboard because i can customize it however i want
on my G1 I used HTC_IME
on my nexus one, I use either the stock keyboard or Smart Keyboard Pro.
I use my skinned version of HTC_IME, (from darkstar) and i love it!
Voice Search with Keyboard from eclair or Better Keyboard if I wanna use one of the sports skins (Shameless plug) Beagz made for us.
swype.. my favorite ive used so far
OK so I love the keyboard from android.grdlock.net (under the extras section) but I hate how the background on it is clear could someone fix this and upload a new apk or tell me how I can fix this myself
Download Smart Keyboard Pro. It's an awesome keyboard. It has a stock Android theme, HTC theme, iPhone theme, all built in. And it has some really nice features over the stock keyboard too.
I wanted to start a thread that people could post their results on which metamorph themes work on what Froyo ROM. Obviously we have Kevlar Froyo Mash (thanks KV looks great on KFCv24). Was just wondering what else had been tried and worked.
I have tried a few different themes (some of which have taken on KFCv24) and will report back asap. And i will also provide screen shots.
Edit: Thus far I have found certain portions of Dr. Cloverdales Magic Elixir...
Browser.apk--->changes internet icon to look like google chrome
calender.apk
camera.apk
contacts.apk
ADW launcher.apk--->themes the ADW Launcher
music.apk
phone.apk
settings.apk--->changes the settings icon and the look of the settings menu
vending.apk--->changes your android market icon to the grocery bag
There may be other portions of this theme that take I have not wanted to change the various apks.
There is a metamorph icon that will change the the stock green lockscreen button to blue called BlueRotary that works with KFCv24.
I believe I have taken pictures of the different changes and they are listed below.
Elegant steel is working. A few status bar notifications are missing but everything else is fine.
good froyo metamorph
kevlar froyo v1 and v2 are nice. if you dont like the stock white notification bar you should try this metamorph out.
I use a metamorph that was made for Cyanogen 5.0.8 roms and haven't had any issues. I like the simple black and white idea. You can find it here: http://jbthemes.com/dr_cloverdale/Black_Effects-v3.2.zip . Original post can be found here on XDA at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=673044
In case anyone is curious, this has worked on KaosFroyo, CELB 1.4, and Tazz's roms too. So good for AOSP/Cyanogen hybrids and Cyanogen roms.
updated first post with pictures
i got the minimalist black from the android theme board working on my cyanogen 6.0 ver 4 on the eris. some things are missing but i think thats the theme. also im in love love love with froyo i cant find a bad thing about it.
Pretty much every theme I've tried has worked fine, but not 100%. The fonts and colors never change for me, just (most of) the icons and the framework.
Has anyone been able to morph the flat phone on a froyo?

Sorry, its included in the Dark Elegance theme.

All themes will work with froyo by simply changing file names and putting all the images in the framework-res drawable folder.. Just an FYI.

I'm using minimal matte on Tazz's ROM. The only thing that didn't work for me was the icons, but I didn't like them anyway

Meshdroid
You should check out the meshdroid, for 5.0.8 cynanogen. It looks like most of it works and it looks great
Both of my themes work.

This theme looks really awesome. I like the way the sub pages trail off like they're on the other side of a cube. And the effect of the driod image kinda floating in space is a great backdrop!
I'm running Cognition 2.3b3 on a rooted cappy. It is really an awesome combo, whatever kernal/lagfixes etc are on this rom, with its widgits and interfaces-->> it rocks!! Blazing fast, rock steady, smooth are words that come to mind.
Any info on the compatibility of this theme with the Cog Voodoo rom?
Thanks for posting the screen shots.

I have the matted blues theme over top of BAMF 1.5 and it is flawless in every way, well, except the ugly orange gingerbread keyboard that clashes on my phone. I am looking for someone to theme a GB keyboard (or tell me how to) that will work with the new CWM (when I try to install the ones from the EVO, I get an error).
Thanks for all your help friends.
Hello,
since I have upgrade from HC to ICS (P7300), the black android keyboard is not available any more.
As I don't like the Samsung keyboard, is it possible to get the old one back?
Hey, actually, i dont think it is possible to revert to the old keyboard.
If its only about the skin, you can download Touchpal Keyboard, go to skins and select the default Honeycomb skin.
There's also Stock Samsung, iPad, Ics, Jb and many more skins available.
cheers
