Hey together,
couldn't find an answer and the official WhatsApp support wasn't much of a help either, so here's my problem:
I'm using a HTC One, all stock, WhatsApp+ v.3.58 and SwiftKey 4.1.1.146.
Whenever I type something and want to add an emoticon, the Emoji window doesn't "replace" the actual keyboard. It just comes on top, which takes away a lot of space, is very inconvenient and forces me to first use the back button in order to send my message. When I minimize the keyboard and then press the emoji button, the layout looks fine.
I have tried it with the normal WhatsApp, the stock keyboard and also various versions of the respective software.I attached two screenshots, one is how it looks after I typed, the other one how it's actually supposed to look.
Thanks in advance.
Edit: Updatet SwiftKey to newest version. Same problem
I got the same problem.
I'm using a Nexus 4, tried both the original whatsapp and whatsapp plus.
Stock keyboard and Swiftkey, nothing seems to solve the problem...
Someone found out what's wrong?
I have the same issue with my Nexus 4 and HTC One too.
I've managed to solve the problem by disabling "Pie Control". Not sure if this helps.
Use the official app, when I remember right this doesn't work with WA+ or try to change the hight of the emoji area to the stock value

Disabling the app PIE CONTROLS solves it.

How do I install Swype beta on the Nexus One? I found http://www.mobilecrunch.com/2009/12/30/how-to-get-swype-on-android/ but it's only for Droid. Doesn't work on the N1 because the screen resolution is wrong.
It still works,I use the Droid version on my N1 without an issue - it'll give the error message about the screen size but if you press the text field again it'll pop up and work fine.
it actually DOES work, just not in landscape. Just close the error message and go to input portrait mode again and it'll work. I just turned off auto orientation to always keep my phone in portrait mode to avoid any crashes while laying down and it switching to landscape. There is an .apk file out there that says they have patched it but to no avail =P
Swype is my keyboard while driving (1 handed operation) but I use Smart Keyboard (free on market) for regular landscape typing.
What am I doing wrong then? I installed it, then the same error comes up about the screen size. I click start and when I go to type, no keyboard comes up.
On second thought, I may have had a bad apk file. I downloaded the one in the first post and got it to work.
Looks like it works sometimes. The error message is bugging me, though. There's also no way to hide the keyboard sometimes, unlike the stick keyboard (which you can drag down to hide).
When using Swype and latest Cyanogen rom I cannot use camera. If I disable Swype, then the camera works fine.

Just press the back button to hide it.
Just wondering if anyone here has the ability to get rid of the warning message and landscape version?
It must be a relatively easy task for an experienced dev?
This guy managed to fix it for Hero, Magic etc. and no nag screen and landscape works. Look like he will attempt to fix N1 version as well. Info here:

I would like to know too! Everything's working perfect but error messages pi... me off every time changing position.
What can we do?
I posted a fix for the pop up here.

Wont download for me !!! Just keeps resetting the page.
Anyone able to disable the error message? I am using the english n russian only version.
I'd prefer Swype, but other options exist...
I'd rooted my Kindle Fire and put Swype on there, and use it on my Evo (work phone) and on Incredible. So I'd prefer to have the same tool on all devices.
Two similar products that reportedly DO work with Nexus:
TouchPal Keyboard (free)
SlideIT ($5.99)
Both are in the Android Marketplace
Somewhere I think I've got the apk for ShapeWriter as well, and I used to like that one, so could be worth a test.
I'm not sure what the problem is here? I've been using Swype on my N1 for as long as I can remember, and have never had any problems?
Yeah...why not just download the beta from the official Swype website?

I second that. It's so much simpler. Detects your phone & offers the best suited version to download. All you need to do is register & create a username & password for yourself.
I have recently found the Full Keyboard app in the Market; it's great to use in the Terminal Emulator and SSH software. After you install it on the Tab it works great, fills the proper part of the screen. The problem comes in after you do a reboot, after the reboot the keyboard does not scale properly and leaves white gaps on the left and right sides.
This can be fixed by manually doing a Force Stop, and then selecting the Full Keyboard again from Settings. Does anyone have any ideas how to address this issue without having to Force Stop and restart the Full Keyboard app?
The application can be seen here: http://www.androlib.com/android.application.com-hmw-android-fullkeyboard-npwE.aspx
I have tried using the Spare Sparts application to adjust the scaling ("compatibility mode"), but it does not seem to have effect on the Full Keyboard App.
I am still struggling with the above issue, if anyone has any ideas please respond. The workaround is rather annoying. Thanks!
One last try... does anyone have any thoughts?
I tried this on another Tab and had the same results, so I know it's not my device.

UPDATE:
I have found a keyboard called "Hacker Keyboard" in the Market. It is much much better for command line.
I loved the gesture that lets you move your cursor in a text field by tapping the side of a phone. I tried it yesterday and it worked just fine. However, I tried it today and it's not working. I tried some other gestures too, and none of them seem to work, despite being enabled in the settings.
Does anyone else have this problem or know a solution? My phone is rooted and I have disabled a couple of apps (Carhome, F-secure and Lg launcher). First I thought it might be because of this, but enabling the Lg launcher didn't fix the problem.
Same problem here. Not rooted and totally stock.
How did you root it cause is impossibile for me??i have firm 2.2.2

I just followed these instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=953182 It was super easy, though I had to reboot after rooting. I have 2.2.2 too. If you have problems, maybe you should ask help in that thread if you didn't already.
ale, see magfal's thread here. Seriously, this phone isn't cheap- let LG know what's wrong with it. Hopefully, the incoming update will clear this "gestures" issue!
There's nothing wrong with the gestures, they just don't work with anything other than stock keyboard, stock videoplayer etc.. I just don't get why they would tie it to stock apps when they could have done it properly so it would work with any app. E.g. tapping the side would issue "arrow"/"trackball" left/right/up/down, double-tap would issue next track/previous track and so on. Cool feature though.

That's my experience too... I thought they were broken but no, it seems they oly send controls to stock apps... :-/
I may be wrong but that's what I recall...

You're right. I switched back to stock keyboard and it worked just fine. Too bad it only has one keyboard layout and is therefore pretty much useless to me. Typing with the English qwerty is way too slow when there's no buttons for all the letters I need.
Full version is out on the market!
What are you doing go DL it already!
Left for history
============================================
Looks like its now working!
I'm using it on Vegan Ginger RC1.
Go grab the apk from the link below.
So far it looks really good,
Typing in landscape is easier, since the keys are much bigger than the stock one this rom comes with.
having arrows on screen is a big plus
And it has lots of symbols you can use by long pressing.
Speaking of long pressing you can change the time it takes to long press in the settings.
Will try post some pics later
Here is the site if you guys want to check it out for yourself.

Known issues:
Long pressing on the settings key causes a FC.
Curious if thats the case with other roms
How did you get your keyboard to work with your tablet? I've tried several keyboards besides the one that came with my tablet and ROM (TnT Lite 4.2.5) and it won't even let me select the box to make it a choice.
Try unchecking any other input devices/kb from the settings. I had similar issues when i had other kb enabled

You have to move the Thumb Keyboard apk file from "data/app" to "system/app" via Root Explorer.
Then you reboot and go into your Market and longpress the search text box. You'll be prompted to choose your input method.
Im also testing the keyboard for the developer. So far so good. Always loved the paid version i bought.
I like the new layout though g tabbers will never get to enjoy the multi touch that it now supports (i think our hardware supports only 2 touch points).
Edit: Yes, long press on settings causes a force close on TNT Lite over here too. Reported to developer. I think its actually because he disabled the functionalities for other layouts.

Did the whole process again and it worked! Love it
I downloaded, installed, enabled in settings, and selected as the input method. So far it's working just fine. Haven't tested that extensively yet but for now it's pretty awesome.
What's the verdict on this so far? An improvement on the previous version?
Is voice recognition working?
Been using the paid version and it's great. However the voice to text doesn't work. Is that fixed in this version?
It doesn't? Think you need to activate it in settings. Works on my g tab.

Thanks for the help with getting the keyboards working. This is a nice keyboard.
Voice is working fine on my tablet.
I like this keyboard a bunch, hands down the best I've used on the tablet so far. I'll definitely be buying it when it comes out of Beta.
agree. Very very happy with it.
does this not do spelling or auto correct ?

I have not checked the voice part yet, but spelling and auto correct works fine.
Both the market version (3.0.2) and this version are constantly FCing for me / not working at all under CM7 and I'm pulling my hair out trying to understand why.
The more I use this keyboard the more I like it. I keep noticing things that are just well thought out and useful, like the long-press for smilies on the left space bar and .com (and long-press for .net and others) button. Even common fractions on the center-right number pad. Very cool, very useful, and definitely a keeper. It's been rock solid and stable under VEGAn 5.1.1. I'll definitely be buying a copy when the full version is released.
Please give complete paths. There are several data directories on my system but none contain an apps folder. My system folder does though. I installed it and it shows but i can't enable it. Runs fine with just a standard install on vegan ginger.
Hello everyone, I hope y'all are staying healthy.
I've been having issues with the emoji/stickers keyboard on whatsapp. I'm still on OneUI 2.1 unrooted, swiftkey keyboard and I'm using Hex for theming.
The problem is that I cannot access said keyboard and don't know why. I'm currently using the double messaging service so I have two whatsapp accounts, and this issue only happens on my main account. This is unsettling, to say the least.
I don't know how else to describe this issue, so I'm attaching a video that shows this behaviour between the two whatsapps.
The first one shown on the video is the secondary account.
If anyone could help that'd be greatly appreciated, thanks!!
Have you tried to disable/uninstall whatsapp layer in hex?
And how about with samsung keyboard?

Thanks for your response. I just tried both of those things and had the exact same behaviour.
