Hey everyone,
I just downloaded and installed the new multi-touch keyboard from the Droid X on my Captivate via ADB and it works perfectly so far.
Link here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=709519
I used the 2.1 Eclair version, obviously.
wow I like it better than the HTC one i was using, thanks!
Thank you for posting this. I am going to move it over to the apps section but leave a redirect for a week.
Worked great for me, been using a mix of HTC and Swype but this I was able to type more correctly and faster than with either of them.

I thought the same thing. I was using Swype, but this one is much faster and has the auto-correct.

Sorry, I wasn't sure where to put it. Thinking about it again, it makes sense for it to be in the apps section.

I'm using it now and I love it. Pretty basic, simple keyboard. Is there any other advantage to it other than being able to hold the caps key down though?

I'll check it out but I love swype so far.

Does it have arrow keys? To me that's pretty much a must-have without a trackball or dpad on our device. Thanks!

There are ways to get the arrows with the included keyboards. See the end of this article for more info: http://www.talkandroid.com/7386-galaxy-s-tips-and-tricks-works-captivate-vibrant-etc/
I am looking for HTC keyboard for captivate, can any one please provide the link to download it.
Works perfect thanks

hmm, wouldn't install for some reason.
Would not install
This would not install for me either. When I try it just says Parse Error, there is a problem parsing the package. I'm kinda new to android so I have no idea what this could mean. Anyone else having this problem?
just wish it had the same arrows as the keyboard that comes on the EVO
can anyone explain to me again what the benefit of this is over swype? or stock android keyboard?
Wow, great find!!! This keyboard is better than better keyboard!
Systoxity: You can type crazy fast on it. I couldn't get used to the Swype keyboard, and the android keyboard had me hitting the wrong keys all the time. This one is crazy accurate for me!

Yea, it said that for me too when I first downloaded it directly to the phone. So, I downloaded it to my computer, then moved it over to the sdcard via usb cable then ran it from file manager and it installed fine that way.

I went to this link and got the keyboard working on my captivate...looks amazing!

I tried on Project X 4.1 and it works great But the cards just show up when you type or speak English. German voice recognision worked great, too but it didn't show any cards... I'm not sure if that's the way on all languages

This was working for me for like 5minutes and later it gave me an error that google has now stopped working. It forced closed on me. My IncS is running on MiUi Rom. Guess the /system partition is not that big. Can we increase the size or its not possible?
Works for me! I have the commute notification this morning too!
Seems to be stable and voice is working online and offline for local (phone) searching.
It does however think it takes 25 minutes to travel 12 miles, guess Google doesn't know I have a motorbike!

Works on ice cold dsandwich. My language is Danish which is not supported by voice search yet, so I will have to wait and see, if there are any real benefits.
I have to use the voice search widget. The normal (better looking) quick search widget or the Apex persistens search bar only works as before.
I had to turn on voice search to get it working, then turned it back off again. Seems to still work fine
The phone seems more sluggish now, but I will give it some time to settle in and see how it goes.
Anyone else have this experience?
Seems like it doesn't work that great on MIUI... Maybe the partition is a little small?
I have the same issues as everyone is having on MIUI, but I have over 100 MB free on my system partition, so I don't think that's the issue. I have posted the relevant logcat in the main thread, hopefully someone there can help
I have just removed it. Seemed to be using a fair bit more battery than I'm used too.

I had this problem on the Nexus 7, I installed an app called OTA Rootkeeper which temporary disables root, so make sure you fully close Sky Go, open the Rootkeeper App and temporary disable root then back to Sky Go and it should work, well it did for me!
Where can i find the App Sky go?

youll have to fully unroot to use Sky Go. it sucks to be honest i tried it on my Nexus 7 and the quality is quite poor for about 30 seconds before it gets slightly better.
In italy, this SkyGo apk, works fine.
Maybe it will work in UK or other country.
If someone can try, so i can open an official thread

Did you activate home from facebook settings. Log on to facebook go to setting at very bottom activate it.
Works! Not sure I like it though...
Sent from my Desire HD using xda app-developers app
I found out that with Facebook home if you set your other (whichever your using) launcher (I use Nova) instead of fb home as you permanent launcher ans still leave fb home active then it takes the place of your lock screen. Looks really nice.
Well it works for me on Ice Cold 8.8 and worked for me as well on Open Kang. So I see no reason why it should do the same with all other roms though I haven't tried a Sense rom lock screen.

Facebook Home replaces the Sense lock screen. That seems to me not very comfortable.
It was just an idea for those who would like fb home but don't want it as their default launcher. Also you do know that the lock screen is not for security purpose unless you PIN it. Its purpose is to just lock phone from mistakenly activating any apps or butt dialing. So there really is no reason for anyone to feel uncomfortable about it.

Very good. As for the ROM?
I've used the UNOFFICIAL CM10.1 JellyBean Nightlies / M-series and it is simply the best for my Inspire. The nightly builds for ALL of the JB ROMS seem to mess with GPS or Bluetooth, so I just gave up on them entirely. I'm a flashaholic and try everything, but this is the daily driver... No bugs

Hello,
For persons who want to input text on GEAR really quickly - for sms, (close future?!) email etc - please have a look on Graffiti for Android text input from ACCESS CO. - available in the play store, free version is OK
This make sense if You are running fOmey null_08 or later ROM. Just install it using Wondershare Mobile Go or other preferred way.
What is coincidence - I have started to use this software on the APPLE NEWTON120 in 1995!!
http://www.everymac.com/systems/appl...on_mp_120.html - for those who want to know what is is was (fitting just right in the case from VHS video tape!)
Have a look on the picture - note that full keyboard take less than half of the screen!!
it is around 10 times faster to input text and digits with Graffiti than with Flit! - easy to learn - just a few letters needs "one touch/movement input" - train on the phone first! - when you make the up gesture from the input area Graffiti will show you how to input letters, digits and symbols.
Good old times! It was the default input method that came with the Palm devices.
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graffiti_(Palm_OS)
Dood it works sooo well on the Gear vs. KB.

I believe it will. I used it on the Palm back then. I was very fast with it.
(Btw, also have a look at messagease. It's also an old input method for small screen devices. Also works great.)
i tried using several keyboards, including optimized T9-like for small screen, but they all were slow without the physical touch of a button for me. vibration did not help much. i'm sticking to full qwerty Google Keyboard. despite small keys size, i don't have problem typing and swyping.
SwiftKey works amazingly as well. I like that you can use swype-like input and the auto correct is great. But your idea is also nice. Just throwing in my 2 cents about great keyboards

hi ,
i used Wondershare mobile for Android ,to install from market ( sideload from pc )
Check other threads here on forum about wondershare, if you want to know about Wondershare
You don't have to have root etc ..just install .
(or.. Google, to download trail vers of Wondershare....15 days trail )
Easiest way to install will be through Wondershare mobile go for android - it is free for 15 days, but first You have to enable the the USB debugging in - read about that in the rooting thread. You may try to use only graffiti keyboard but honestly the stock firmware is USELESS comparing to the version 10 of the custom ROM.
To install the rom - read at least the first page of the thread, get odin 3.09 and You will be fine! then You can install graffiti just from the market, or again use Wondershare...
