How to install: Gingerbread keyboard

*FROYO ONLY*
NOTE: This may replace your current Android keyboard! Make a backup first if you want to revert!
1. Download the gingerbread keyboard: http://fabdroid.com/downloads/Fabolous_GBKB_Fix.zip
2.Use root explorer (or whichever to push files) and extract system folder from zip to your sd. Then copy latintime.apk to /system/app and the lib file to /system/lib.
3.Then flash this APK: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=457922&d=1291697158
4. Long press in text box and select "Android Keyboard" and BINGO!
P.S. I have a theme so mine looks a tad different than yours!

v2 has auto correct

What v is this one?
Sent from my Tazz Vanilla using XDA App

why cant we just install using astro or something like any other keyboard and turn it on and off in the input settings? why do we have to push and write over the stock one?

This is a V2 bug fix version. You dont want the stock version after using this trust me.

awesome!!!
this keyboard is great!!!!!

Worked great thanks,the only thing is that you have on your notes to flash the apk but that was not the way i got it to work,instead after moving the files from the zip like you said i also copied the apk file to system/apps rebooted then installed the apk file and it worked lik a charm,just an fyi.

The keyboard is awesome. Thanks for the instructions.

This worked for me also.........nice looking board

I cannot get this to work for the life of me. granted I'm trying to do adb from memory and I havent used it in forever.
adb shell
mount
adb push
that's the order right? I just cant get it to work for the life of me.
the explorer built into froSHEDyo won't let me copy/move files to system

okay, i finally downloaded super manager (great app btw) and got the two files into the app/lib folders
then i try to install that apk, and it wont install!
so now I don't have keyboard... luckily i still had an apk of that thumb keyboard so I'm using that for now.
I'm gonna go try that flashable .zip :/...

Flashable zip works couldn't get this method to work

Yup. Running CM6.1 stable on my hero and "installed" it by pushing the apk as "Vending.apk" to /system/app
Just updated a couple of apps using the new market, so I'd say it works (Carrousel thingy is a nice touch)

Thanks for the info! By "push" do you just mean replace? Can i do with root exporer? if so.. what permissions would i need to set. im quite n00b to all this

By push I meant through the adb ("adb push Vending.apk /system/app"), but I suppose you can replace it with Root Explorer as well since you are essentially doing the same thing.
I'm not really sure, but I think you need to mount your system partition to R/W instead of R/O.

OK cool, i dont have ADB set up... will look into it 2moro. Im half asleep right now.. i'll only mess things up hehe

Netflix for Android Officially RELEASED!

This is only working on a few select phones.. But i have it working with Typhoon Gingerbread. Just wanted to spread the word.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.netflix.mediaclient

Hm I'm on Typhoon and it says device not supported
**Nevermind, I was using an old pre-release apk. All good haha

Also confirmed working with hyperdroid gbx 2.3.3.......... awsomeawsome

Works on Crawling City Ultimate Droid perfectly!

Can't find it in the Android Market on my device and when I use the link above, it won't let me download it either saying it is not compatible with my device.
Edit: Running CMYLXGO's GingerSense v0.5

Saw a guy on the market with a HD2 and he claims its working fine for him even though the HD2 is not on the list of phones. I have a HD2 and I am not able to get it, how would he be able to do this?

I think the Mods should merge the two threads to one. Then perhaps eveyrone can list what Rom they are using and whether or not it works for them. The OP can update the first post with confirmed working builds (or perhaps a mod can?)

At first it wouldn't let me download from market, but used the one in link and works perfect!
I'm using magldr/cwm/typhoon CM7

Hey guys don't forget the app was only released for certain phone models so most of us will probably need to use some work arounds.
Its working great on Tytung Nexus 2.7. If its not working for you, try this...
- Replace drmprovider.apk in system/apps with this file ( http://www.htchd2forum.com/android-...odes-android-app/?action=dlattach;attach=1284 ). It is the drmprovider.apk from the LG Revolution, which has the required restrictions for Netflix. (Don't forget to back up the original first, just incase).
- Change model name in build.prop to Nexus One (model approved for Netflix service)
- Install Netflix.apk from market (Link in post 1, old Netflix apps that have been floating around didn't work for me, just this one).
Restart phone and try it out! That did it for me, hope it helps on other roms. Good luck!
Props to poster of LG Revolution drmprovide.apk to the guys at htchd2forum, OP of this thread for Netflix.apk, my idea on the build.prop model.

Can you provide a little more detailed instructions on how to complete this process please?

Download and extract the linked file drmprovider.apk. Use Root Explorer to open system/apps and copy the file to that folder, replacing the old one. Then, find build.prop file in the system folder, long hold and select open in text editor, change the product line to Nexus One (see the screen shot in my previous post) then save and exit. Download and install the Netflix app (from first post) then reboot your phone. See if it works

THANK YOU.....been dual booting wp7 for awhile and netflix was one of the only reasons why im even using WP7
work perfect after file change and Nexus One change
im on AmericanAndroid 5-10-11 and they released and update while i was getting this to work..............yeah

Thank you! I will give it a shot in about an hour when I am done with some school work.
It shouldn't effect my rom at all, right?
Has anyone tried this method with the Desire z Sense NAND Zip Rom?

Working on hyperdroid CM7 v2.0.1
I used the link in this thread to DL the apk. It installed and opened fine, movies running smooth. I didn't have to rename the phone in build.prop or change the drmprovider. It just worked. At least for now. And with the 4.3" big screen the movies look great. Eat your heart out 3.5" iPhone.

No it shouldn't effect anything else really. Your phone will just be recognized as a nexus one now.

Is there any other app I can use other then "Root Explorer" to do this on the phone?

Forget it, I found a good app that does the same thing.

Will changing the root name to Nexus S and Samsung prevent me from updating my HTC features or any other features? I am hesitant to make this change and have problems down the road. What does

You can always change it back the same way

Pretty good looking idea, I haven't tried it though. Is there a a way to rework it so you don't have to make build.prob edits. It's supposed to have our inc stuff in there for a multitude of reasons. Just asking.

Tried to install this running CM7. Wouldn't give me the usual startup splash, just flashed a white screen every 10 seconds or so and vibrate. Guess that means its not going to work, let it try to boot for several minutes.
If you've cooked it into a ROM can you post the port? Thanks.

Replacing uninstalled bloat APKs

In the event I want to do a system restore, I would, at this point, need to push back the APKs back to their applicable place.
Where exactly would that be?
Would the command just be adb push or adb copy blah.apk /path/to?
I'd like to have this as a thread for those looking for the same info, at least until an SBF is released.

I'm releasing a one-click unroot that restores all original files today. Standby.

That would be awesome. I'm having trouble restoring Backup assistant 2.3.4, Backup assistant client 1.0 and Guided Tours 2.3.4.
Titanium just hangs indefinitely...

Titanium Backup can't restore applications that don't contain a classes.dex, which is most of the /system/app/ folder. That's why I recommend my bloat removal script instead.

Wonderful... And I uninstalled it after I backed it up.

I downloaded the folder system/apps folder that it told me to and extracted it into sdcard/d3unroot and mad sure it was on charge only, But I still get this error. any help would be greatly appreciated

Fascinating, I'm getting the same error. I assume we extract the file into d3unroot?
