[MOD] Gingerbread 2.3 Keyboard w/ working Predictions
- Thread starter Fabolous
- Start date
As far as I know. I haven't tried it any other way.
Appears so, my curiosity got the better of me so I tried it.
Looks like I need to take my chances again. I tried switching to clockwork to get this the other day and ended up losing my recovery image and had to use rsdlite to get my phone back so I'm nervous

Every time I reboot, my keyboard is tiny again :| its starting to become a hassle. Anyone have a fix for this?
I've got this running on my Droid 1, using SPRecovery with the zip from droid-life. This... needs work, IMO.
Text selection is horrible, and when you hold-slide to make a selection (accents, numbers, etc) there comes even more issues. The time allowed for hold-sliding is WAY too short, and you need to make your moves super fast. Also, hold-sliding doesn't work like it did before. Now you hold-slide under where you're aiming, which makes it easier to see what you're doing, but not it's not intuitive at all, and totally different from how it worked before (hold-slide to the accent/# directly) which leads to more confusion. I also have the word replacement bug, typing "spat", typing a few more words, and then trying to change "spat" to "spit" results in "spspitat"
I appreciate the extra speed and features, but I sure hope these issues get fixed, or I'm going to have to try to figure out a way to roll the keyboard back when Gingerbread rolls around for the D1.

Did the fix from the first post not work?
Oh nice, looks great! Thanks for that, I appreciate it.

the fix is worthless once you reboot the phone, or when it reboots by itsefl or when your battery dies :icon_evil:

What xml files control the top portion of the keyboard, specifically where the suggestive strip is?
Its the colors.xml in the values folder. You have to decompile to access that folder.

Damn, thank you.
Can you theme the multitouch keyboard to look like the GB one? : )))) pretty please
