What steps have you taken ? Have you read the steps and followed them to the T ???

[PURESKILLZZZ]

Make sure you have a latest system backup.

On my Jasjam (HTC Hermes), I used SK Tools and changed the default keyboard to this, now it will not boot :(

Think hard reset the only option.....

OK ... I see you havent read the thread .. LOL ... It says not to try it and I have even personally posted not to use sktools also ...

[skueck]

Any qwertz-version available?

So hows the 'real looking' version going?

This weekend Im gonna try some applications with a few pads we have already designed ... Thats about it so far .

Fantastic... goodbye to all other entry methods, goodbye stylus too... this is what I was looking for... keep up the good work! My thumb is a little large but it just about manages. Any chance of developing more skins?

is there a possibility to do it with a qwertz keyboard

I think we could borrow a couple ideas from Nokia. I owned a N770 for a while, and although the machine was a bit sluggish, the text entry was perfect (thanks to a huge 800*480 screen, right, but also because of the layout which made text subsidiary and focused on big keys).
Nokia have done a similar thing with their N800 (see pic:http://img.hexus.net/v2/internationalevents/ces_2007/nokia/01_n800_tn.jpg)

I have the utmost difficulty to type a text when not in landscape mode on my Prophet, and even then, I still find it hard.

I would love to have the keyboard of Happy Tapping increased in height (at the expense of text, sure, but I'll be willing to give two lines for bigger buttons) - ala SPB ot Tengo Thumb but with less keys to maximize the input. Say minimum key size of 30*25 in P and 35*35 in L.

Also, I quite like the way Nokia managed to get the same button perform different actions. Tap once, it's a comma, twice it's a period, three times it's a question mark... Of course it is silly to have period on it as you can't do "..." easily, but it would it be a huge space saving feature on our HTCs.

I also remember the space bar under the left thumb to be a really neat idea (esp. if we combine it with autocomplete features that the N770 did not have).

All that to say there are other designs possible we have to keep in mind that would likely help a lot to achieve a good keyboard.

IS the nokia keyboard really that big or is that an photoshop picture

[delude]

From the pictures on google (that I have seen) of an n800 in action (takien with somebody using it) the keyboard looks different.

This looks interesting though: http://www.intomobile.com/2007/07/29/iphone-like-virtual-keyboard-for-nokia-n800.html

That is what we need .. Honestly we do .... Have you downloaded the software?

[delude]

Nope. I'll have a look, although I prefer the design that was poste here a few pages back.

Woop! They made it count on release! I wonder what portrait would look like...

The thing is, the filke doesn't look compatible and I can't find a contact link.

Ok ill help you . Maybe what ever problem you are having others may also be having . lets remove anything you have installed in the phone for this first. Now lets goto step 1. Do nothing at all but step 1. once thats complete message here and we will see what has happened so ar and goto step 2.

[delude]

Python is on my list to learn after HTML,XHTML,CSS & PHP ;)

[PURESKILLZZZ]

Here are the steps from the original post not mines all I am is trying to make them a little easier to follow.


Installation steps:

(before this step soft rest phone or turn it totally off and back on.)

(Simple steps using activesync click explore. There is a window popup on your computers screen. The default window is your document folder. Save files there.)

1. Install HappyTappingKeyboard.arm.CAB (to device, not to Storage)
(this means save it to the phone. To be sure its saved to phone remove your memcard)

(install the next part no matter what to make things a bit simple)

2. Install Default_IM_WM5.CAB (to device, not to Storage; for WM5 only; if u already have other program which can set the default Input Method, skip this step & use that program instead)
(this means save it to the phone. To be sure its saved to phone remove your memcard)

3. Extract the files in ip_AC_Skin.zip to your PDA's "\My Documents"
(using winzip , winrar or the zip program of your choice open this folder and extract files to your computer and then transfer them to your device.)

(Simple steps using activesync click explore. There is a window popup on your computers screen. The default window is your document folder. Save files there.)

4. Goto the "Option" of HappyTappingKeyboard (Start -> Setting -> Input)

- select "\My Documents\ip_AC_QVGA_P.bmp" for the ";Portrait Bitmap"

- select "\My Documents\ip_AC_QVGA_L.bmp" for the "Landscape Bitmap"
(if your PDA is VGA capable, select the ip_AC_VGA_?.bmp instead, and select the VGA option)

- press "OK" to quit

5. Start -> Program -> IMSelector

- select "Happy Tapping Keyboard" as the default Input Method

6. Soft reset your PDA
(pressing the reset button on device)

7. Enjoy!

I wish the Iphone keyboard would be modified for Windows. For instance, in the numberpad mode, I can't find the decimal point. And the little Apple button and Esc have no function. Ideally the alphabet mode should have cursor arrow keys.

Continuing like this we'll come to original default keyboard of WM.

Sorry, just a joke :)

May be a joke but its almot tru . How about we first get the keyboard to work then worry about which keys and what features.

[leshemnoam]

Hi pureskillzzz,
looks like you are on the case!

i posted a bmp a few pages back but i also mentioned my idea that the keyboard reacts to "finger release" rather then "finger down" so you can correct yourself if the wrong key is pushed(like on the iphone), is that hard to do?
i think that will solve alot of problems and might mean the keyboard doesn't need to be bigger.

thanks

and to all that only read the last page:
yes it works on wm6!
to get cap lock press shift twice!
don't use sktools for this!

[delude]

The finegr release action is what has been used for the nokia iphone keyboard in the video.

sorry delude,
viewing on my mobile i couldn't view the stream (subject of another thread I'm following) so i ended up repeating the idea.

[delude]

Don't worry :D I wasn't trying to dig. (it did seem like that, sorry!)
I much prefer that type of keyboard, as it is so much easier to correct mistakes.

not knowing much about it wouldn't it be something in the registry that can be changed/added? so it will work on reless for all keyboard inputs?

Ok folks .. This by far is the best keyboard so far unless we get the iphone style keyboard .. But this 1 is sweet . I have downloaded and installed it . And the usage is awesome . I ike this so we have a keyboard . Now all we have to do is see what other languages it comes in.

PEOPLE .... THE WORRY IS OVER. THERE IS A FULL SCREEN SIZE KEYBOARD AVAILABLE . YES I SAID IT A FULL SCREEN SIZE KEYBOARD. NOW IPHONE CAN EAT DIRT EVEN MORE THAN IT ALREADY DOES.


The spb Full Screen Keyboard is the best thing since cooked rice. It also has many skins and available in many different languages. Iphone skin is not needed no more ... This is it people.

I also have the SPB keyboard. It's really nice but i got a downside to it. When in fullscreen mode, you can't see the rest of the text you have typed. I think that's maybe the only thing which needs to change and then it will be perfect. Also foreign language support (like Dutch) would be a great thing.

Just like delude i don't hope you drop the iphone project. Personally I think the SPB keyboard isn't that perfect and I've seen many great ideas in this thread. I would have developed a keyboard myself if I had a change, but i'm a complete computer noob, so that's never gonna happen:p

I just came up with a great idea, at least I think it is. Maybe you can built the Iphone-like keyboard and then put a "swipe action" into it. For an example, when ur on the alphabetical keyboard and you swipe with your finger to the left, a nummerical keyboard wil appear, and when you are on the alphabetical keyboard and you swipe you finger to the right a "smiley- keyboard will appear" (kinda like the TouchCube but then with a keyboard). This way you can save space, because you don't need any extra buttons and you can make the letters much bigger with plenty of space between them.

(sorry if my English is a bit crapy)

[maevro]

I was using SPB Full on my Trinity but I am using pocketCM Keyboard on my Touch. It gets annoying not being able to see what you are writing with SPB and having to turn the phone everytime, thats why I got rid of a slide out keyboard in the first place.

Look at this keyboard, it is still in development, but has a lot of the things that people have been asking for, like selecting the letter when removing pressure and the large pop-up selected key. I've tried it and it's really very good.

Looks cute . Still I dont think its what we are looking for as something close to the iphone. I still feel strongly about the spb Full Screen Keyboard. Been using it all day sent about 400 messages with it . Not sure what others dont like about it but its quiet simple to use and has tons of settings.

Re: FSK I agree, it's a great piece of software, but I have a Touch, and so only a small processor, if every time I want to send a text/email, make a note etc, I have to turn the screen from portrait to landscape then back again, just to type "OK see you at 3pm" then it's a bit of a pain, also, I don't want something that covers up all the text. I want to be able to see at least the last paragraph or so of what I've typed.

I'm using Tengo Thumb, not free, but a fabulous add on for the Touch. I try these others, but always come back to it. It takes a very short while to program 'your' words into it, but after that, it's brilliant.

Well I see your point . But since people want to emulate the iphone it actually covers most of the screen . So people must want a keyboard almost as big not as big . Also you ahve to turn the iphone to type period .

[kull]

Have been using iphonelike keyboard for some days now. The only issue I found was while typing numbers. Wish they were on top so that one could type them in easier. Otherwise I feel its nearly perfect. Teksoft keyboard would have been great if it had T9 support in its phone layout skin.

[radhoo]

Did anyone try the "replace with phrase" stuff included in fingertouch? It should help type faster...

http://teksoftco.com/products/fingertouch/manual/fingertouch_9.jpg

For eg. type !cap or !gre in Notes/Pocket word.

IMHO its not. I tried it and disliked it. I can type just as fast with HTK as I can on SPB, plus I don't have to turn the phone, something I NEVER do....

I just create keyboards that suit my needs and fingers.

[PURESKILLZZZ]

Ok . So we see different people have different wants and desires for eyboards. The iphone keyboard means you will turn the phone sideways . if you dont wish to do to then you are mainly using your stylus. Now lets see which keyboard has the biggest keys . But the tengo keyboard does come in may multiple languages.

[delude]

tene has already proved that you do not have to turn the keyboard sideways. First of all the iPhone effect needs to be copied, like tene has done with the 'balloons'. As long as that works properly then the arrangement of the keys can be sorted to look like the iPhones, even if they are smaller. This works perfectly because you can easily tell which button you are on by looking at the 'balloon'.

Who knows, when 0.3 is released we may be able to skin it up and change the size of keys to make the perfect iPhone keyboard.

Why do we have to copy the iPhone keyboard layout? It does not have . in the main layout.

[marisa4755]

Why do we have to copy the iPhone keyboard layout? It does not have . in the main layout.

The new version has a 'special' function on the symbols key. If you tap & hold it for a second, all the most common punctuation symbols appear (full stop, comma, question mark, exclamation mark etc) and you can slide along to pick the one you want and then it goes back immediately to the normal keyboard. If you only want a full stop, you just tap & hold a second and there it is.

This is apparently not the final look of the keyboard, the developer is more interested in this point in getting functionality correct than form. That will come later.

[maevro]

This is what I have been using with HTK, I created it fast. It is basically the main keyboard but spaced out better.

can you post a link for that skin for some of us to try?

This works great on my Touch! I would definately use it as my standard IM if it had the norwegian characters ÆØÅ on it. Would that be hard to make? (Don't have to be there all the time, only when i press the SHIFT key or something).


Hi,
How did u get this working? I follow all the steps and then one step which I miss out is finding the IM Selector from Programs....I simply dont get the IM selector or rather its not there....am I missing something??? I am having extreme difficulty n typing messges....:(

Great keypad maevro, works great (efficient), thank you! Planning on making extra colors for it by any chance? Only wish is that there was a way to make to make the space bar wider(I would be willing to sacrafice some of the buttons), just my opinion and also maybe a landscape version....., keep up the awesome work.....

Yeah guys, I will bang out a few other colors and also make some landscape versions over the week. Thursday is my birthday and I will be busy so give me a few days more...

will definetely try out your landscape version, looks promising, by the way did you ever get a chance to fix the "caps" look on you portrait version? keep up the great work!.......

anybody can tell me where i can get this phonepad?

Which phone program you want ?

[maevro]

Thanks maevro I really like the black. What does the mac key do?

No problem, I will make some different ones and different colors too. The mac key does nothing, it is worthless. The original had it so I kept it.

i think i like this black one the best. i have a question, which one of your keyboards has the biggest keys possible on HTK? if you havent made one then can you pls?

All of these have the biggest keys possible that the original HTK coding uses.

The original HTK keyboards, the ones that look like iPhone keyboards use the 3D features when you press them so they need extra space. I did away with that effect to get the largest keys I could make. I cannot get the keyboards larger then 240 x 300 for portrait.

Seriously how big of a key do you want ?

I was just wondering if there was any more room to play with for the keys is all, if not then this is what we have to deal with. Its way better than the standard microsoft keyboard so I have no complaints.

As I have said before to to others . Draw what is your ideal keyboard . Then maybe it can be applied or something similar exists.

I found this it looks interesting
http://www.gearlog.com/2007/08/handson_with_the_sprint_palm_g.php

HTC Touch, Blackberry Pearl
...And this version of the device lets you pop up virtual 12-key and 20-key keyboards with buttons big enough for you to use your fingers, as opposed to the standard Windows Mobile onscreen keyboard with its tiny buttons (which is also an option.) Sprint didn't give a price for this gadget, but said it's probably coming in November.....

[tomazez]

yes a few screenshots would be nice

[PURESKILLZZZ]

Ok folks . I have found another wonderful keyboard. I didnt say its new for the smart azzess . But its a nice keyboard where you can move all over it and until you release it doesnt press the key. Its what I believe to be the closest to what most have been looking for.

Is it possible to get a pound sign?
Also is there a touch skin available for it?

[lastnikita]

It's fully customizable, just give it a try and you won't ever go back to anything else. It still needs dev. (especially for suggestions replacements), but is already in a very advanced stage.

I would be very happy about a skin like the iPod skin in german keyboard Layout...

How to make Russian allocation of the keyboard.

[gogol]

Ok, the wait is over :)

Finally, I could create a soft-keyboard layout the way I want !

And create a skin for it.

See the attached screenshot :)

It has all numbers, alphabet, most used keys, SMILEYS, in one layout.

I use this superb application created by Quentin Pouplard (Thanks!)

http://pocketcm.com/keyboard.php

And then customized the layout (Better Keyboard.layout) and the skin (Better Keyboard.skin)

How to install?

1. Install the latest version of Pocket CM Keyboard

2. Copy Better Keyboard.layout to \Program Files\PCMKeyboard

3. Copy Better Keyboard.skin to \Program Files\PCMKeyboard

4. Soft-reset

5. Turn back on

6. Activate PCM Keyboard (click the small keyboard icon)

7. Set options to use the above layout and skin

Done :)

To get more keys, tab+hold the "mode" button (123#?)
To get more smileys, tab+hold the "smiley" button
To get copy/paste/cut, tab+hold the space button
To get tab/home/end, tab+hold the space button

How to add foreign characters?

Easy, edit the Better Keyboard.layout and add more symbol_pad !

For more info visit :

http://pocketcm.com/phorum/read.php?14,772

This keyboard is WAY MUCH better compared to HTK. Try it, and you can type very fast.

How to modify the skin?

Actually, the .skin is a .zip file. You can unzip and modify the skin (or create one). More info:

http://pocketcm.com/phorum/read.php?14,1191

I know this might be old news, you knew this application already, but I just want to finish my journey of finding a good soft-keyboard. I started on this thread !

How to make Russian allocation of the keyboard.

Best way is to look at a russian keyboard vs a us keyboard and place the keys from 1 to another,. Then its all about the characters.

[gogol]

I know that this thread is about HTK.

But actually, in the first was to look for a soft-keyboard that can mimic the iPhone keyboard and basically a soft-keyboard that can be configured the layout freely.

I posted my own design (drawing), maybe you can find it in the first couple of pages. Hoping that someone could make the code :)

Because some people found problem with HTK, for example foreign chars.

Then, PURESKILLZ started to collect ideas / skins / ideas, etc.

That's the story.

I was also tried to download and compiled the SIP source code, tried if it is not that difficult to build one (but it is difficult!).

So, finally, I got to learn the Pocket CM keyboard (PCM Keyboard), which in the latest release can fulfil my dream of being able to :

- Arrange layout freely, whatever I want

- Draw the skin !

So, why dont I tell this to this thread? ... I did ...

I just want to share my finding (The PCM Keyboard cannot do this in its pre release).

Creating HTK layout from scratch is easy using PCM :) If you want the same exact layout (but what for? :P), even you can resize the button size.

Please, dont get me wrong that I hijacked this thread to promote PCM.

I came back and posted here because I started here (finding good keyboard) and inform others which might be dont know that they can CREATE their own keyboard ... with all those foreign characters ... macros ... skin .. for FREE.

Please, is it possible to someone to make a greek keyboard. I enclose the .bmp image for the greek keyboard.

I would be very happy if make GREEK keyboard Layout...

[jzan]

still trying to figure this out!

[menace2u]

First Post! Just loaded Ozan's iPhone themes on my xv6700 and been spending alot of time here reading and learning. So much more to do.......

I am no expert and had issues getting HTK to work on my xv6700. Reloaded files and programs several times and all went fine but, upon reboot, the new keyboard would not come up. I found that there is a little triangle icon near the keyboard icon (its not visible in my set-up but if I put the stylus near the Kybd icon it pops up) - tap that and it lets you pick what kbd pkg to use. I select HTK from there and it loads and works for all apps.

Not sure why default is still the regular kbd. I have HTK set as default (via IM Selector tool) and it shows itself as default but something else must be interacting with this setting.

[gadgetsboyj]

Hi I had a keyboard that didnt look like what i saw in the picture but if i held it down nothing would happen for example:

http://bp2.blogger.com/_neilFjQgr08/RzqPv5-zcYI/AAAAAAAAAJQ/PhfJ0HVuq1I/s1600-h/Right.bmp

Then I did a soft reset because one of my other apps froze.

The keyboard looked like this:

http://bp1.blogger.com/_neilFjQgr08/RzqMyp-zcWI/AAAAAAAAAJA/cUiohxSo8jw/s1600-h/center.bmp

Then I went into IM Selecter And the box was blank so i selected Happy Tapping Keyboard.

I rseset again and the keyboard looked like this:

http://bp1.blogger.com/_neilFjQgr08/RzqMyp-zcXI/AAAAAAAAAJI/MfMWULsjRho/s1600-h/wrong.bmp

Can anyone help me get the top one ( http://bp2.blogger.com/_neilFjQgr08/RzqPv5-zcYI/AAAAAAAAAJQ/PhfJ0HVuq1I/s1600-h/Right.bmp )

I really liked it.

P.S If you want to know where the emulator is from the tutorial is at: http://www.amset.info/pocketpc/emulator.asp




Problem Solved! You will definetly like PCMKeyboard Better Than this one. Ill try to find the site its from.

PCMKeyboard Allows you to keep you stylus or finger on top of a letter and glide around the keyboard. The letter your finger is over will be magnified to a point that you can see over your thumb. The letter typed will be the letter your finger or stylus was over when you let go. Ill post a video soon.


Video Posted. Ill give the link for the video as soon as google checks it and allows it on the site.

You can download the keyboard at: http://www.pocketcm.com/keyboard.php

They say it also works on Windows Mobile 6.

[yves84_2000]

[ymmp]

hi all, love this community!
i have done a layout for Hebrew/English keyboard. i hope you can deal with right to left writing(if not there is a little app called LEngLite that might help).

since we now finally know what the apple key does i changed it to more relevant icon.

loved the idea of smileys layout - let me know if you want me to make a more colourful layout of it(maybe add some more)

i think there is confusion on the size issue. i think what people are asking is for bigger keys when pushed rather then the whole keyboard being bigger(i might be wrong).
but can the bigger keys exceed the overall size of the keyboard?

also it will make it more iphoney if it reacted to key release rather then key press.

hope to hear back soon

thtanks again!
how do I use it?
Thanks

[PURESKILLZZZ]

how do I use it?
Thanks

Have you read the whole thread ? Have you at least tried to install it and see what happens ?

[ymmp]

There are 42 pages!
I read a few and I did install the kbd (happy tapping) and some of the skins but they were all bitmaps, I don't even know where the hebrew/english skin is - all I see is a jpeg image on pg 18
Also on the options page there are alot of squares instead of words (is it in Japanese?)
Thanks for your help (I know its hard to keep explaining the same things)

I'm also using Happy Tapping Keyboard & have a selection of skins including the iphone. Good application, easy to type with a finger due to it being larger than standard.

Hi Guys,

I've just got a newsletter with a link to an interesting keyboard.

There are two version there, looking very similar, one's free, and the other is the PRO version and seems to do more. The link was:

http://www.fingertouchpro.com/

The guy in the video seems to type really fast with it, I was thinking that it would run well on my Axim's large screen. I'll let you know my first impressions after I install it.

Cheers!

Looks nice. Try it and let us know how compatable it is with all programs ...

Hi there,

I d/led the software and installed in on my Samsung Omnia. But upon activating the keyboard, the keyboard skin is truncated or rather, expanded. I could not see alot of keys.

Please advise.

Well, for a start, it works good. There were some problems while using the trial version in Calendar, as the two squares were popping too often, but it seems to be fixed in the last release.

I've tested it with Notes Editor 1.0 and Word Mobile for writing a few texts. It went well, but I had to define some more english words, as they weren't included in the dictionary. The next use showed them, which is good - it learns.

So go ahead, give it a try, I still have it on my device.

Hey,

I just installed the keyboard and am using a Titan XV6800. The keyboard is perfect for when I don't feel like opening up the hard keyboard.
My question is: Is there anyway to increase the size of the included Iphone keyboard? I'm using the QVGA and it seems a bit small. Relative to the Diamond Keyboard (that was nice..but ultimately failed at auto complete with entering addresses). Any suggestions?

Thanks

I installed this keyboard on my Hw6510 running WM2003SE. everything went fine except that the keyboard looks like it's cut off on the sides. I think I got the right settings in the option menu (landscape/portrait). Did you have this problem? does anyone knows how to fix it?

thanks in advance.

[jingwarren]

I have copied the skins to my phone but dont know how to change the basic from the dropdown menu. Would like to try the iphone-like skin. Please help. Thanks.

What exactly did you copy ? And where did you copy these files to ?

[injulia]

Guys, you are total missing out if you haven't tried "Cliquick" yet (here's where I got it from - www.cliquick.com/download).
This keyboard is really something else - it's ultra comfortable to use your fingers on it, and it makes typing much faster due to new letter placement (also, it's the cheapest keyboard i've found:)).
I'm agree.
The size is very small, too!
:)

must try!

If you can't find the settings, there is the solution of changing registry keys. Here is the text file for the registry entries, just edit the fields (you can change the icon, the path to bitmaps, the default IM, ...; be careful with registry edition, use it at your own risk ...):

--------------

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{F9A103FF-B5E2-4eae-8C34-0ADC26116C4B}]
@="Happy Tapping Keyboard"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{F9A103FF-B5E2-4eae-8C34-0ADC26116C4B}]
"BitmapFilePortrait"="\\windows\\ip_AC_QVGA_P.bmp"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{F9A103FF-B5E2-4eae-8C34-0ADC26116C4B}]
"BitmapFileLandscape"="\\windows\\ip_AC_QVGA_L.bmp"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{F9A103FF-B5E2-4eae-8C34-0ADC26116C4B}\DefaultIcon]
@="\\windows\\ThumbKeyboard.dll,0"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{F9A103FF-B5E2-4eae-8C34-0ADC26116C4B}\IsSIPInputMethod]
@="1"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{F9A103FF-B5E2-4eae-8C34-0ADC26116C4B}\InprocServer32]
@="\\windows\\ThumbKeyboard.dll"

------------

You can add the following lines to force the default IM, but the device input may got locked. It is preferable not to use this and try to choose your keyboard with the normal selector or the one given (for WM5)

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\SIP]
"DefaultIM"="{F9A103FF-B5E2-4eae-8C34-0ADC26116C4B}"

[Graegor]

Thanks! Great job!

[aaadictedone]

It shows that images were removed? Replacement links?

I prefer the Gingerbread Keyboard ftw!
