WOuld be nice to se a screenshot of what you are talking about.

Would love to post it. but I can't find the original theme that had the IME. I can't remember the name. and I can't remember if its in here or the Dream Theme forum.
edit : found the original thread with the transparent HTC_IME
link
its the 8th picture in the first post.
thing is, i am not sure if its based on the original HTC_IME (that requires htc framework files) or the one modified to run on its own (like the one i linked to in my OP).
I have this one, its stock with 50% opacity added to the background. If you need it completely transparent I can do that for you just let me know.

- download astro file manager from the market
- put a copy of htc_ime.apk on your sd card
- select this file in astro, then select app manager
- press the 'uninstall' button
- select the htc_ime.apk file again
- this time, install it
this will remove the existing version which is causing the conflict and let you reinstall the new themed version.
for CM 4.2.3.1 just push the apk to /system/app/ using adb. reboot and you're done

Hi danger rat. Im alittle new at this. How do I do that. And if I do what else will I lose?
Is there an original keyboard apk that I can just install?
Very much appreciated
If you don't know how to restore a backup, you probably didn't make one...
The keyboard has more than just the apk to it, so it's a bit more complicated than just switching the old apk back...
Ask in the keyboard thread, because I'm sure you're not the only one.

reflash the rom that you are using. and, since you are kinda new to this, ALWAYS make a nandroid backup in recovery. one da it WILL save your ass
...or you can do that, too. xD
Might wanna back up your apps and settings first, with Titanium backup.

Hi ilostchild. How do I go about doing that. Thanks everyone!
If you got android sdk installed you can do it . But if you don't its best to titanium back up everything you need and reflash your current rom
You can also do it with Root Explorer, or Terminal Emulator...

Get a copy of your existing ROM.
Extract the following files:
LatinIME.apk
libjni_latinime.so
The apk goes in /system/app
The lib.so goes in /system/lib
You'll have to remove (rm) the existing files...
It will be far easier for you to do in Root Explorer.
Reboot when done.

Ok Sdk way
Adb shell

#mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtd3block /system
#exit
Adb push latinime.apk /system/app
Then
Adb push lib.so /system/lib
Adb shell
Su
#reboot
And there you go got stock back..works both ways too if want to push gb kb
but to do this make sure Adb is in environment variable
If not gonna have to put all files in sdk folder where Adb is at

Stupid question....
Surely re flashing CM6.1 would restore to stock so to speak?
(I took a nandroid so no worries if it would not )
Can't it be as easy as someone giving me a .zip of the stock nexus kb and installing it from recovery?

Ok, I have searched high and low, and found nothing, I want my good old android stock keyboard in gingerbread. I have found a hundred ways of putting the gb one on everything, even a psp, but not the other way around. Can someone build an apk, or a zip to do this? I am having such trouble getting use to the gb keyboard.
So, im asking for the old default androind keyboard in the new 2.3.X
Thank you
I'm not understanding. Stock is there for me. Imputed method>gingerbread. Keyboard=stock

I think he means the keyboard that was in 2.1 (or 2.2).
Correct me if I'm wrong OP.
Yes, the one on 2.1 and 2.2. I hate this gb one, space bar is so small!

I'm thinking you could always pull it out of the 2.2 Froyo ROM zip that is around here.
Should be in system/app (I think).
You can use 7zip to pull it directly as a zip instead of unzziping, getting it and rezipping.
Once you got it, just put it on your sd card and install.
I can't promise it will work cause the framework is different on GB ROMs but it's worth a try. The worse you'll get is a "Can't install error".
Oh, I got it. And it even installs. But I don't know where it goes, Or where supposed to go in gb. Cause it didn't show up in the settings section.

It should install in system/app
I believe you should be able to change it under settings -> local and text.
It's trying to put files in /meta-inf, system/app and system/ lib. it says its installing, but i show no evidence of it.

Que?
what is trying to put files where?
meta-inf is in cwm zip files, it's the flashing instructions for cwm? There is no folder on the phone called that.
I'm confused
Lets start over shall we,
What you have to do is open the zip, either unzip with native windows tools or just open the archive in 7zip. Take out the keyboard apk you want out of /system/app and the corresponding lib file in /system/lib. Put those in the same folders on the phone, either push them with adb or drop them in with root explorer, and reboot.
Still no guarantee it'll quirk on gingerbread though...
The above mentioned directory is the folders in the zip file that when opened it will write to on extraction. On earlier roms, 2.2.x, i flashed it via cw as an update.zip. Apparently this doesn't work with 2.3.x. Do i have a file that is really old?

There's a few items that I need to install seperately every time I flash a rom. Is there a simple way to make a workable .zip or is it complex?
What I need to install each time:
Battery mod
Voice dialer
Keyboard
The batmod and keyboard are currently in zip files, so I was wondering if I could merge these easily. The only voice dialer apk I have requires me to manually place it in the correct folder with r/w access.

while i don't have a direct answer to your question.. you can reboot recovery in the CWM menu.. so you still install only one item at a time, but its much quicker than rebooting the phone completely, then going back into recovery.
Just a little tip if you didn't know
Just take all three files in your seperate zips, and throw them in the rom zip in their respective folders ... Flash.
BAM ONE STOP SHOPPING!!!
SUPER SIMPLE!
You're welcome.
if you want to make your own cwm update, it is not difficult, just check the script in META-INF\com\google\android folder.

Well thee battery mods are in a framework-res.apk that is overwritten, so thatwouldn't make a difference, and I've never had issues just dropping apps in /data/app or /system/app. It just flashes the whole folder it doesn't have instructions for every single app.

Yup, that will give you an example of what the script should look like...
As normal, it's not my fault if you fubar your tab by flashing this or if zombies come and speedhump your cat. You've been warned.
Well, hello there, some of you may know me from my vzwtab (7") work, but I'm sure most of you don't.
No matter, I just finished deodexing my framework and app folders, so I decided to share with you.
This isn't anything special, just you're stock system that's been deodexed, I did not remove any programs, there are really only three or so 'bloatware' apps on here, so I didn't bother.
If you would like to, just use root file explorer (or your preferred method) to remove them.
In addition to the stock items I have added pershoot's SU/Busybox/misc package (SOURCE) All credit goes to him for that.
If there's anything else, just let me know. I have tested this on my own rooted tab and everything seems to work fine and be stable.
If you notice any issues, please format/clear both Dalvik & normal Cache. It's probably the cause.
Features
Deodexed flashable system
Pershoot's SU/Busybox/misc pacakage (nano, VIM, all kinds of other goodies)
Changelog
06212011- r1 - Initial Release
Known Issues
You may have to go through and manually delete your odex's in /system/app/ and /system/framework/ but the apk's and jar's no longer call them. (I can't get the amend format command working right. if you want to tell me how, please!)
Installation
Reboot into CWM either via ROM Manager or via power off, volume down + power, volume down to CWM icon and volume up to select.
Select Install Zip from SD Card
Navigate to location of zip and select okay
Clear Cache and Dalvik Cache (in advanced)
Reboot
Make themes for me

awesome finally someone to break ground for the Samsung Galaxy tab! Thanks will try it out!
Not sure if it matters but is this for retail or I/o version? Does it matter since it is basically the same tab?
For any ideas: maybe you could include a way for hulu to work without any work arounds? And maybe some lag fixes. Although that may be solved with a custom kernel.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
Decided to test this on the retail version.
The only problem is that root is broken because there are two su binaries installed.
/system/bin/su - installed from file Samsung_Galaxy_Tab_10.1_root.zip when you rooted the device.
/system/xbin/su - installed when you added [Tools] – SU/BusyBox/Misc – Galaxy Tab 10.1 (Update: 6/18/11).
To fix:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14016703&postcount=18
------
the /system/bin/su binary need to be removed.
Su does not work on the tablet with two su binaries installed.
Use adb to remove /system/bin/su
adb remount
adb shell
cd /system/bin
rm su
reboot
I tried running titanium backup prior to a reboot after removing /system/bin/su and it would not work. I uninstalled/reinstalled and it worked, but a reboot may have fixed the problem.
I manually deleted all the odex files - no problems so far. I will provide an update later if I have problems.
------------
You can remove /system/bin/su when you update the image again.
JD
Yeah, I just noticed that myself actually. Don't know why I didn't catch it before.
Anywho, I think I'll prolly push an update to this tomorrow after I write a script to remove the odex's. It was my initial thought, but I thought it would be easier to used the updater-script to do it, but looks like just writing an additional one will be best.
Glad the su thing didn't confuse you too much!
Sweet thanks for this. Going to give it a whirl!
I flashed the Samsung_Galaxy_Tab_10.1_root.zip after flashing the Rom. Everying is working fine.
I didn't need to remove su from anywhere.

If you have both su binaries - and all works - good to hear. I will flash again, but will reboot a second time to see if it matters. Those apps did not run until I remove the su from bin.
Strange how two devices with the same specs operate different on certain software.
JD
shouldn't that have been:
cd /system/bin ?
i didn't try mine w both since i didn't want hassle of find out if it worked or not. no reason for 2 su's.
