First thing before we start, YOU MUST HAVE A DEODEXED SYSTEM. If you don't know what that means, stop here.
Ok, now we can continue.
This is a quick howto and a mod on how to use Gingerbread Soft Keyboard on Atrix.
1. Download http://nma.usk.bz/atrix.php (Link fixed)
2. Decompress copy them to your phone sdcard:
Code:
adb push GBKeyboard /mnt/sdcard/GBKeyboard
3. Now open a shell on your phone:
Code:
adb shell
4. Become root:
Code:
$ su
5. Backup the original files in case something goes wrong:
Code:
# mkdir /mnt/sdcard/kb_backup
# cp /system/app/LatinIME.apk /mnt/sdcard/kb_backup
# cp /system/lib/libjni_latinime.so /mnt/sdcard/kb_backup
6. Now mount your /system as read-write:
Code:
# mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system
7. Now copy the Gingerbreak keyboard files to your system, overwriting the current ones:
Code:
# cp /mnt/sdcard/GBKeyboard/LatinIME.apk /system/app/LatinIME.apk
# cp /mnt/sdcard/GBKeyboard/libjni_latinime.so /system/lib/libjni_latinime.so
Done, you now have a Gingerbread keyboard on your Atrix. This is the stock Gingerbread keyboard right from a Nexus S ROM. It's not a themed keyboard.
There is one known issue, vibrate on key_press is not working. But that's pretty much the only issue that I found. Everything else works. Everything should be working! Let me know of any issues!
And remember: Backup your /system! If you brick your phone, don't blame me!
One last thing, to answer the questions about why you should use this one instead of the market one or other APKs. This is the stock GB keyboard tweaked for the Atrix screen resolutions. You can see the difference on the screenshots below:
On the left the Stock GB Keyboard tweaked(this one I posted) and on the right the Market/other apks:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And on landscape more: (you can see on the picture below that the market one also doesnt leave much space for the input form)
Changelog :
4/15/2011
Fixed some broken links.
v2 :
- Fixed some minor cosmetic bugs! Should look a little better overall.
- HapticFeedback is working!
- Based on the Gingerbread keyboard from stock 2.3.2
how is this different from that gingerbread keyboard on the marketplace?
The gingerbread keyboard in the market also works on the atrix. Does this mod have the small keys due to resolution or has it been tweaked for the atrix?
does this compare to Better Keyboard Gingerbread theme?
I just downloaded the one off the market and it seems to be the exact one I had on my captivate

This is the stock gingerbreak keyboard, taken direct from a NexusS and twaked for the Atrix. It has the exact same look and feel and functionalities as the Stock one, including the auto-complete bar above the keyboard.
I have the gingerbread keyboard on mine and it was a simply apk installation .....

Which APK did you use? When I tried to just install the stock APK from Gingerbread, I got Force Close problems, because of the lib that was incomplatible. And then even when I updated the lib, the keyboard was too small, because of the different resolution of the Atrix. So I still had to tweak the apk.

sure... like i said first time u choose the keyboard it displays small letters go back to imput method and select stock keyboard then select gingerbread again.. u have to do that once only .. not like u have to do that procedure often unless u go back to stock keyboard then u want gingerbread again
I don't mind the Gingerbread keyboard that I posted a link to 4 days ago, but the one from the market works awesome, especially because of the skins and the other features you just don't get from the APK - stick with the market one and pay the small fee to get even more skins if you like, I love it!

The other keyboard will vibrate. You just have to go into the advance settings and change vibration intensity from the phone setting to your own setting.

I will post a screenshot later, but the stock gingerbread one adapted for the Atrix screen looks a lot better than the Market Gingerbread keyboard or that other apk posted here.
Also, the stock one I posted is tweaked to give you a little more room while on landscape mode.
I updated the original post with screenshots showing the differences between the stock one tweaked for the Atrix resolution and the market or other apks.
I got the files from your zip copied over but afterwards the only keyboard options I had was swype. Any ideas?
I am running the ADEO ROM from DG.

Ok, BIG change starting with 2.x. I am now running a froyo (jk6) build so I will be doing more work with froyo based keyboards instead of the eclair based ones. I will not have any way to test the eclair builds any longer so if someone wants to take them over, send me a message and I will give you the sources (including build scripts).
With 2.x I have started to use the gingerbread keyboard that has been floating around. 1.x builds will continue to be eclair based.
NOTE: Currently the 2.x builds WILL replace your stock keyboard. In order for the auto-complete, I had to revert to using the stock package name. You cannot have more then one of these keyboards installed at a time. I will change this as soon as I find a solution.
I'm absolutely not responsible for anything that happens to your phone from installing this.

So, installing one of these WILL replace your stock android keyboard. For working haptic feedback make sure its version 2.1 or higher (the attached files in the first post are all v2.1+). Flash it in ClockWork Mod recovery and everything will work!
I have downloaded and flashed all three of the keyboards and they work. But you can only have one installed at a time! They WILL overwrite each other.
Attached Files are at the bottom of the first post here
Awesome, thanks!

Guess I'll be a guinea pig later and test if you can simply do this with Root Explorer or ADB cause I have a stock JI6 install with the 3e kernel.

The haptic feedback bug was just fixed yesterday I believe so they are still updating some of them.
As of this post only three versions have been updated and they are all attached in the first post of their thread.

BEWARE (P8)
This killed haptic feedback system-wide on Perception 8 for me! I might work for other ROMs (everyone post their ROM with their feedback reports!), but if you're on Perception, this'll likely kill your haptics.
Im on assonance 4.3 and I still have my haptic feedback everywhere.

Ok so it worked for me. I used ADB and backed up my original keyboard (busybox mv LatinIME.apk LatinIME.apk.old) then pushed the replacement in there after renaming it to LatinIME.apk, pushed the libjni_latineime.so into the lib folder, rebooted and presto! Works perfectly. I grabbed the WP7 one.
Sent from my Captivate
Edit: And again, as with any keyboard mods I have install, I have gotten random shutdowns. This is most likely an isolated incident, but anyone who suffers from these may want to take heed.
Im running the wp7 version (since I got blue on my wallpaper) and it works perfect!!! I also tried the stock one and the orange black out and they fine as well.

installing blackout using sideload wonder machine
Guys,
I'm not rooted (work phone ). Can I install the blackout version using sideload wonder machine ?
I used to have this keyboard working when I was on JH7 (installed through sideload machine). On KB1, sideloader fails to install it. I extracted the .apk from the zip and pushed that. Am i doing something wrong here ?
Please help guys. I really loved this keyboard.
I installed this and when i try and correct words that i have already entered it doesn't replace the word it doesn't replace it, it inserts the correct word into the middle of the word i am trying to replace.
Example. "tjr" i click it and select "the" and it turns into "tjther"
Any ideas?

This ROM is based on the 10b official LG Europe release.
Fully tweaked and modded in order to fit my needs
Nearly every apk is edited in order to get rid of these bad LG colours and settings. This was hard work and took a long testing/flashing time.
If you want to support me please donate!
If you want to use this ROM as base for own ROMs please always put me into the credits! There are many Pays-ROMs in the wild simply relabed without credits, don't be like this.

If you want some removed apps back edit my paysscript.sh script in the zip file.
You just have to remove the lines of the apps you want to keep.
And if you want to remove even more apps feel free to add some lines more to it. You don't have to sign it
Don't try to set up a Facebook account or other SNS accounts, I removed that because there are much better clients, but still shows the option in the Setup Wizard, simply skip there. If you want to use SNS, just delete the SNS lines in paysscript.sh.
If a app FCs first check if you wiped correctly, second option go into the settings manager -> application -> and delete data of that app, try again.
If there is still a error please report.

I agree and by the way, you're welcome for using the init.d scripts on Nova. Which by the way, are broken and are not working. Unfortunately I forgot a detail and they aren't active. I'll fix it in Nova soon. You can't also use the mount one because your ROM isn't ext4. But it was a good effort anyway.
Lots of love to both of you, and those who like to spend time developing P970.

With the init.d scripts I know that they do not much atm, but I let them in for future editing else I will forget them.
They don't affect the ROM and thats why I didn't mentioned them yet in the features above.
I did not took so a close look at Nova but I saw you mentioned that you are working on a custom kernel.
Is there any progress?
Yeah great to see that more people is coming.
Just one question : do we need to flash before the 10b ?
I‘m asking that even you wrote that in the steps because Nova rom is 10a based and I flashed it directly from 11b lol.

You can try to flash directly, but do a wipe before, maybe you have to do a factory reset from the menu after flashing, too.
But this is the dirty way, tell me if this works for you.
I only guarantee for the clean and right way .
So when I flashed Nova, it was the “dirty“ way too ? Lol.

Nova kernel is still very experimental.
Like I said, when I have more time I'll start from scratch and work on it properly.
By the way PaY87, this ROM is using the kernel I compiled for Nova correct?

Hello all! Here is my first rom, Revolt Rom!!! This is using the latest update from LG except for the boot.img. It has been fully cleaned out to decrease size and to increase speed. It will continue to be a work in progress! I hope you all enjoy!!!
What is this?
This is a very lightweight rom built both for speed and stability. This rom is based off of the latest LG update and does retain root. It is fully deodexed, and debloated. Almost all of LG has been replaced and as time goes by, I hope to remove the rest. Swype has also been changed to the newest Beta. A few items have been replaced with AOSP versions to increase speed and decrease size. Also included is the appwidgetpicker to clean that up. I have also began with the Gingerbread theme.

When I extract it's extracting as a separate .img and .md5 file, not sure why...but i'm guessing that wont do.
can I just make a correctly named folder and extract to that?
Yes put the 2 files in a folder so that it looks like /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/RevoltRom1.0/2 files

he said its based off the latest update and still retains root. Can you give root to others who are not rooted yet???
SO nervous. Even though, I know the phone is fudge proof. I extract into clockwork, but with winrar, there was a learning curve there. So I got that. It appears to be okay. Fully rebooted.
Edit: HOLY CRAP!!!!! SMOOOOOTH. I have that 3d draw effect, and it never ran smooth. Brings a tear to my eye. Desktop scrolling is sweet!!
Edit: Yuck, that launcher is going bye bye. Is that a stock launcher?
My alarm clock is gone....
How can I get this back?
Thanks! Downloading now to check it out. I happen to love the stock launcher
Had to try it but dont do it the revobread theme wont work with this rom...
It is under clock now. The stock was a space hog (8mb) aosp is 500kb.

Nicely done
So far, so good. Smooth performance, no glitches or hang ups. Signed up for the swype beta to get that back. Did notice that I still can't install kindle from the market. Ah well. I'm getting used to google's reader. Looking forward to where you take this rom, it is a great start!
Happy to see someone other the thecubed adding ROMs to this machine. Although, you have been releasing some amazing mods and themes. All of which I love and have been on my phone. Also, has anyone switched to this from decrapped? and if so, how would you rate the 2? Which one is better since mt's theme and doesn't work with his ROM.
Lovin the ROM, nice and smooth and I like the look of the notification bar
Random though....is there a way to fix the delay between when the screen turns on and when it's active?? From the first day with this phone it's bothered me, I unlock the phone...wait 2-3 seconds...then swipe. Same when I pull the phone away from my ear on a a call

ghROM
WHAT IS ghROM?
ghROM is a source built rom. It is compiled off of the cyanogenmod7 Repos. This means it was not put together cut/copy/paste style. ghROM is a display of all of the mods I am working on. My aim is to bring a nexus feel to the atrix along with my own personal mods. This rom is influenced by how i believe android should work.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
FEATURES
- ghLauncher
> My own implementation of Launcher2 from the gingerbread source. this is an opensource Launcher and can be found here
- Launcher rotation
- full 3D app drawer support both landscape and portrait
- LatinIME_QHD
> The stock android keyboard modified to fit qHD displays better. Typing is MUCH easier
-hardware accelerated UI rendering
> The UI is rendered by the gpu, takes load off the cpu and improves fluency and performance.
- dalvik heap size set to 256mb
- stock nexus wallpaper + set as default
- nexus boot animation
- all features of cm7 including fingerprint scanner!
MORE TO COME SOON!
ISSUES
-Launcher 3D gets really slow with live wallpapers once you install a bunch of apps. -working on it

Also, just for clarification, can both RomManager CWM and RomRacer's Recovery work for this? And is it recommended to install from internal or external?

LOL, really? Just flash it the same way you flashed all others, from internal, or external. Your choice.

Good new a new ROM. Two questions for you:
- Is ghROM unblurred? I suppose it is as you compiled from CM7 code... but could you confirm it?
- What name convention you use for storage External and Internal? As CM the SDCard is Internal storage?
Great work!!!

yes, there is no blur. its sourcebuilt. name convention is exactly the same cm7.
external = sdcard
internal = emmc
THANKS!
Yeah, really. CM7 and Neutrino are both recommended to flash from internal. Most of the Blur ROM's install instructions usually refer to using the "SD Card". I have read of people encountering issues if they don't follow the recommended procedure. Simple enough question I believe.
Also, it has been shown plenty of times that using the wrong recovery can cause issues.
I'm not suggesting that either way is "necessary" but rather I would like know if there is a "recommendation".

No sorry. unless its somewhere in the cm7 settings (which i just checked and couldn't find it someone tell me if it is) i did not implement it. ill think about it for a future release though.

May I ask for a request? When in landscape mode in the messaging app, the keyboard is nice and big and all, I can't see what I'm typing. How do I adjust the keyboard size in landscape mode? I suppose I can redownload thumb keyboard or another third party app.

if you look here you can find a download for a version that has full-screen mode. follow the instructions in that post to install. I do not have this problem but this will fix it.
DISCLAIMER: I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU DAMAGE YOUR DEVICE...BE SURE TO BACKUP AS ALWAYS
Also please note that i do NOT own a 7.7 so the files that i upload must be confirmed working by actual P6800 users...thx in advance
well, guys...we FINALLY finished the multi window mod for P6800 owners (no P6210 for the moment). Below i will provide the link to the rom that u will need to use as well as a link to my original thread with more detailed instructions. I advise that u please at least read the UPDATE V5 section of my thread over in the Tab Plus forums...although the entire first post should be useful. Let me also add that yes...this mod may remove other mods/tweaks that u have installed or that come preloaded with your rom. Over time we will manage to get the best setup for everyone...for now i would advise using the stock rom.
UPDATE V2: This new version doesnt offer any new functions unfortunately...i just threw together another zip which includes all of the apps that need to be replaced so any new flashers wouldn't have the same issues & questions
UPDATE V5: I finally got around to uploading the new version of the mod for your device...please read the V5 section of my orginal thread in the Tab Plus forums. I have linked to a zip which includes apps that will need to be replaced due to force close (almost all stock samsung apps)...also be aware that i MAY need to create a separate version for the P6210 so please test and report). For those of u using the "sky high" rom by @UpInTheAir then u already have the latest version included so no need to flash this....and to everyone else who has not flashed it yet what are u waiting on go try it out!
Install Instructions
1. Install rom using CWM or TWRP (recommended)
2. Edit your build prop by adding the line qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 at the very bottom (may also need to change dpi)
3. Flash the V5 file below followed by the forcecloseapps.zip (please note...these files MAY need to be installed manually using TWRP or AROMA)
4. Delete flashbarservice.apk located in system/app (only necessary if coming from V2)

yup... those 2 bug... i cant even remember now what i do to solved it... i think i'm going to compile the one i use along with the multiwindow and released it....
The mod seems to be working in erobot v1 albeit not as well as the phablet version by the looks of it.
The windows can be resized, even though the grey bar isnt there and there doesnt seem to be the ability to have them side by side as they appear to just be floating windows but it works!!
edit: changed the DPI to 213 and it works as it should now but i have no menu buttons, will try some other DPI's
