• Version 17: Option: Toggle prediction on/off for single line browser forms

• Version 12: Fixed rotation issues in some apps (ie Terminal). T9/ABC setting is now remembered when switching between letter/number views (HTC's bug, not mine)
• Version 11: Fixed saving position of word suggestion list (a typo caused the same value to be used for all orientations). Fixed auto cap in browser with physical keyboard.
• Version 10: Many new options (see feature list). Fixes: voice input in all keyboards, voice input didn't capitalize correctly, "speak now" dialog showing to early, prediction not showing for passwords anymore, auto capitalization for T9/compact QWERTY now works in browser, smoother movement of word suggestion list, settings button showed "EN" (now scaled icon from lowres), Landscape now works on Droid (with resolution related glitches)
• Version 9: Fixed the screwed up enter key in v8. Added experimental voice server settings. For German to work you will have to use the alternative server.
• Version 8: Added custom word candidates bar. Fixed wacky SHIFT key. Word candidate list position now remembered. Configurable in settings dialog. Added some Extras to voice input Intent copied from stock KB (missed earlier). One step closer to Droid landscape support.
• Version 7: Fixed compatibility with Terminal Emulator in CyanogenMod, KB going haywire in CoPilot and word candidate list shows to low (hid active input field sometimes like in stock messaging app). Lowered android:minSdkVersion from 7 to 3. This could mean stock Droid support, but don't complain when it FC's on Cupcake
  
• Version 6: Tweaks to the sentence auto capitalization code. Should now work in most web browser forms such as the message composer on this forum. Tweaked enter key behavior a bit.
• Version 5: Show voice input button for all languages instead of EN button in all keyboards that uses the same layouts as the English ones. To fix this in all other layouts, modding binary XML is required. I need help with that. Voice input seems to use your current locale if supported, and English as fallback.
• Version 4: New voice input control logic that doesn't break Google Voice search. Changed voice processing URL from dev server to stock keyboard settings.
• Version 3: Fixed FC in User Dictionary editor. Fixed HTC not obeying EditorInfo.imeOption flag flagNoEnterAction (caused two sends in stock messaging app)
• Version 2: Fixed FC in user database
• Version 1: Initial release featuring language settings hack with .htcime and dictionary support in web browser forms. Tested on N1. Clicker is low res for now.

[eliassami5]

i would show off my keyboards but im not rooted and dont have any other camera to take a screenshot with.

and gimpsta's site is frikkin fantastic. All it needs now is to be able to select any color you want for the primary keys and the secondary keys and be able to set a custom keyboard background..then it would be killer. Best addition to my DROID by far.

Couldn't resist using the "Pyramid" background for my custom background with the new v25 version..

 

[pc747]

it matches the wallpaper on your phone

 

[928Droid]

it matches the wallpaper on your phone

Close enough, it is the Pyramid Wallpaper and I use the stock Droid Neural network LWP...but with my lousy eyes I can't tell the diff from what little bit shows

Those guys have done an amazing job with the custom keyboard site, Kudos to them!

 

[eliassami5]

wow this guy is amazing, im gonna get going on making my keyboard now, thanks for the update

 

[???]

I have a black and blue lettered v 24 keyboard on my Droid and love it. just this morning I found the xt9 option for the upright keyboard. it uses 2letters per key and its so easy one handed.


my question is about my friends older G1. we tried installing one of them on his, since I saw somewhere that its for 1.6 and above and it wouldn't work at all. any ideas one one for his?

 

[Kmart95]

Really cool! Im making one right now to go along with my black ice theme

 

[???]

really liking this for one handed use...
