LG Optimus 2X keyboard - Captivate Themes and Apps

Hey everyone, ssgelm over at the Evo 4G forums posted a signed zip for the LG Optimus 2X keyboard.
This is what the keyboard looks like, it is pretty much an iPhone keyboard.

Just download the file, rename it to update.zip, put it into the root of your SD card, and flash it. This does not replace your stock android keyboard.
Some users have reported the keyboard crashing when trying to change the settings or add a user dictionary.
Developers, if you can turn this into an .apk file for non rooted users, or solve the crashing problem, this would be great. No forum i could find has done this yet, but I have the most faith in the developers in this forum, good luck!

too small…I don't like it

I think its the perfect size, I'm able to type my fastest with this keyboard.
But it would seriously be a huge help if developers were able to fix some of the features, make the keyboard a little more customizable like being able to take off the korean option on the keyboard

I actually hate the Samsung keyboard, but find the 2X's keyboard to be one of my favorites. It would be even better if someone on here could fix the rather simple problems. I'm no expert on this, but I have seen what people do on here, I'm pretty sure someone could manage this haha

I probably would not name it to update.zip bc you will overwrite your CWM recovery which is also update.zip.

I could be wrong but I don't think the name matters right? As long as we have it in our sd, we can choose the 'install zip from sd card' option in cwm right?

If it force closes on you, you must have changed settings, that's the only reason I can figure that would cause it.
I flashed it by update.zip and I can type perfectly on it, I just can't change setting because then it will force close. I'm sure someone on here can mod that keyboard and fix it though

Working great on my samsung Fascinate running 2.2.1 (Touchwiz) everything works but vibrate on keypress which causes an fc and dictionary will no work but adds the app dictionary when you open it says something like DB file does not exist diodict is shutting down if anyone got dictionary and auto correct working please let me know love this keyboardso much
I actually typed this out with it but no correct is a killer...
thanks,
ps.. BUMP!!
~DiGi

I got the vibrate to work while i was trying to see if correction and dictionary would work so one thing down but i cant seem to find out how to make the correction and dictionary to work. http://www.mydroid.info/android-apps/optimus-2x-keyborad-android/ here is where i got the file thats smaller and you can just extract and install the keyboard. then if you move all the lib files into you lib folder on the phone and leave the permissions as is the vibration should work thats how it worked for me.

Can't get this to show up in locale and text. I was hoping to convert my wife from iphone to android by initially making her new phone as similar to an iphone as possible. Flashed in cwm. It said success. Can't find.

there are some pretty good keyboards similar to this one on the market
for example https://market.android.com/details?id=com.touchtype.swiftkey&feature=search_result or even iphone-like keyboards

Its not working on my X10?
Please tell me how to use it? Thank very much

[Updated 7/13/2010] DroidX keyboard - Eris xtrROM theme

All-
Attached is a version of the new DroidX Multitouch keyboard that I have themed for my new release of xtrROM. I am not a fan of white or red and I like the raised key look screen shots below.
7/13/2010 - Updated new file that has a fix for the missing "<" key under ALT. Also fixed the long press on the "(" key. Please let me know if it works
A few notes:
includes fix for the dark keypad number for when you are in a number only field such as blue tooth.
vibrate on keypress has been fixed for Eris (not sure how it will feel on other platforms)
fixed the display of the "&" from "&;amp;" in alt mode
if you long press the "?123" key it brings up keyboard settings
voice to text support works well
[Edit per thenestor]
If you're using a ROM that already has a stock Android keyboard, you have to rename this "LatinIME.apk" and push it to /system/app, overwriting the vanilla keyboard (it uses the same package name: com.android.inputmethod.latinime). If you're using a Sense-based ROM, you can install it like any old APK.
This "should" work across phone platforms and on nonrooted phones however I have not tested.
This is my first themed app so let me know if it works and enjoy!
CREDITS to thenestor for helping me find the keyboard and which libs to use and unknown for the initial pull from the DroidX

I am using zach.xtr's ROM and I tried pushing this (without renaming) and I cannot seem to get it to take. I didn't rename because I don't think zach.xtr's ROM uses the standard keyboard. Can you point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance.

Just to make sure, did you long press in an input field after pushing the file and select the Multitouch keyboard sounding option?

Updated .apk with dark keypad fix
I have updated the .apk on the OP with one that has a fix for the dark keypad number for when you are in a number only field such as blue tooth...
New version doesn't install.

So far this is pretty cool, i like the new look and the predictive texting seems to work better than vanilla.

Sounds like you are trying yo install via an app manager, you probably need to push like the OP states ..... I had to because the ROM I am using had the Vanilla Keyboard already installed
Im using sense and im not rooted. I installed the original white one using adb push and the original black one from this post but this new version fails

Sounds like you may need to rename this one to be exactly the name of the prior .apk that you pushed so that it overwrites the previous file... or you can remove the old one first and then push the new.

[Q] changing device model number for heroc

I have searched for a while on this, and I can't find anything close to what I'm looking for. I want to change the model number of my phone from HERO200 to something else. Why do I want to do it? Because I do. I want to know if anyone has done this, or knows how to get me started.

All you should have to do is edit the build.prop on the phone, save it, and reboot. (Should being the keyword here.)

I must have done it wrong. I'll try again. Thanks
I must have done it wrong. I opened build.prop, edited the model name, saved and rebooted. It still says hero200 for the model number.. What am I doing wrong or not doing?
Say we change the model number to something like a Nexus One, a flash supported device. Could we then trick adobe website into installing flash on our heros!
wishful thinking
By the way I'm running cm6 2.2, and the build.prop says eclair..

Did you try replacing the android dictionary and some of the libs with the 2.3?
how does this compare to droid X?
for me android keyboard on 2.2 was bad compared to droid x. with droid x it guessed my words a lot better. do we know whats been improved or is it just a visual thing?
Using it right now on p7...looks pretty nice....

I pulled the UserDictionary.apk and installed that, but it cause FC's when opening the keyboard. There might be an issue with dependencies on other libs I didn't transfer, but it's not my area of expertise, so I'll let someone who knows take care of it.
had to flash twice, but it works for me! I can't wait for more 2.3 goodies to get baked into roms
man ive been loving this keyboard! thanks so much for the port already!
Didn't work for me on assonance
the auto correct only works after you go into settings and select a language/region
i think...
Worked for me just fine. Also i am not sure if it is just my imagination but even though the keys seem smaller they seem to be a little more leinent with my fat fingers and making mistakes. Autocorrect doesnt work but it looks great!

[MOD] WP7 style keyboard for Android

FROYO ONLY
FROYO ONLY
FROYO ONLY
Hi folks,
With the recent port of WP7 to HD2 (credit to Cotulla, DFT, and other cooks), I know alot of HD2 users have tried it. I myself used it for about a couple of weeks, but I found that although it is great, it still was missing a couple of key features compared to android.
When I switched back, one of the thing that made me really regret was the keyboard.
After searching on XDA, I found this thread and figured it would easily work for us NAND users running Android.
It is a metamorph theme, but when I applied it, it didn't look right. The user who created the theme JAguirre1231 suggested that it didn't work correctly because the theme is suppose to be for the stock keyboard. This was a problem because I know alot of people prefer other CM, Sense or MIUI roms.
After doing some experimenting, I finally got it to work on the MIUI rom I'm using. The only thing is that this themed keyboard replaces the default and makes it the default. I'm not sure if you can add it, and keep the Sense keyboard or not.
*I DON'T TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY PROBLEMS THAT MIGHT HAPPEN TO YOUR PHONE, DOING THIS IS AT YOUR OWN RISK* *ALSO REQUIRES ROOT*
NOTE: DON'T TRY TO INSTALL THE .APK DIRECTLY, IT HAS TO GO INTO THE SYSTEM OF YOUR PHONE
EDIT: FROYO ONLY(?)
Like I said, I have only tried this on the MIUI rom and I would advise you do backup or take precautions because this process involves editing the system files inside your phone.
Directions
----------------------------------------------------------------
1) You need Root Explorer (available in the marketplace) and the attached file

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2) After you have Root Explorer, put the attached "LATINIME.apk" file on your sd card
3) Boot up your phone and open Root Explorer
4) Make sure the file is on your SD card
5) Next, navigate to /system/app/ and you should find a "LATINIME.apk" file in there too
6) Be sure you hit the top button so it says (MOUNT R/O)
7) Just to be safe, rename it to something else, and copy and paste it into your sd card (if anything goes wrong, just replace it with this file back to /system/app)
8) Delete the "LATINIME.apk" in /system/app and next copy and paste the attached one into /system/app
9) Exit and your new keyboard should be like the ones shown below
10) DONE!
Note that this is merely a skin for the keyboard, and all the other android settings are still the same. I also found it isn't as accurate as the real thing, but still better than the stock froyo.
This tutorial was made with the permission of JAguirre1231 and I just thought it would be easier if I share it.

Make sure in the future that u backup all of the system apps before replacing them...
it look just like the gingerbread keyboard lol
I would say: don't do this. Even when I copied back the original file I did not get my keyboard back, so I had to reinstall my rom.
Same here. Luckily I had smart keyboard pro so I'm just using that .

Can you tell me which rom you are using?
And did you put the LATINIME.API into /system/app? If you don't have root explorer you can try ADB? Or if your rom already has the default froyo keyboard, just use metamorph skin from post #1.

Hm, I'm not sure if this works on gingerbread. I think it only works on the standard froyo keyboard.
If you want to take another stab, trying using the stock .apk from here, and if it works, just use metamorph to theme the keyboard.
Then again its up to you.
tried adb to phone but keep getting force close issue.

I'm not sure, you can look into seeing if you can make the .pngs in the skin work for your rom. It should be in systemui.apk and framework-res. Remember to always backup!

I have made a flashable zip by following balamu96m guide. You can find it attached with this post, If it doesnt work out delete the settings.apk from system/app/ and replace it with the one attached in this post and set permissions as rw-r-r.
Update: 29-April-2012
- Battery Use menu now directs you straight to the settings/About phone/battery use.
- Added new flashable zip
Nice..
When flashing it gives me error status(0) operation aborted.

I have attached a new zip, give it a try. I am not sure if it will work or not. I am not much good at creating flashable zips.
Added new screenshots
Flashable zip doesnt work, need to replace settings.apk (I recommend rename it to settings.apk1 for backup, then copy the new settings.apk, I srly recommend ES file explorer, Its free and no need to change/fix permissions).
Thank you!
Any bugs we should be aware of? I read in other threads (ICS settings in CM7) that manual brigthnessdidnt work and FCs, and another minor bug with location and security, I dont have these issues with this version, brightness work as it should and no FCs... the only thing I dont like its the "Battery use" takes you to the ugly ass battery history from "dev tools" I think... any way to change it to the real battery use located in "settings/About phone/battery use"

Does any one knows the android target class for the battery use in about phone.
for ex:- android:targetClass="com.android.settings.wifi.Wif iSettings"
I need the line marked in red.
And for the flashable zip, I gave it a couple of tries but I wasnt successful in creating one, maybe someone could take a view on the updater-script and let me know what I did wrong.

Sorry for the late response, it should be one of these:
com.android.settings.fuelgauge.powerusagesummary => I think is this one, don't remember
com.android.settings.fuelgauge.powerusagedetail
com.android.settings.BatteryInfo => I think it goes here right now...
com.android.settings.fuelgauge.powerusagedetail => Or maybe here, this one sucks
Sorry I don't know witch is witch but I can't see right now my phone is unenviable due to "rebirth"
------------------------------------
Alright tested, its the first one, the second one its the same as clicking the graphic. If you can change it to the new location I would be very very happy

It was made for O2X and no one using O2X is having the problem. And also the battery menu is included since its there in ICS too, just to make it similar to ICS settings.
And also this mod is made almost 4 months ago, when u flash it its replacing the settings.apk. I am pretty sure during this 4 months CM must have made improvements to settings.apk, so there for by flashing this mod u r replacing the new settings.apk with an old one.
ok i understand but dont you update it? or just please make one with deleted battery menu so i can use it

I will try to do something about it on Saturday, but I wont be able to test it since I dont use the O2X now so I will just upload the new file here.
