View Full Version : Need Black On-Screen Keyboard!

I really miss the previous On-Screen Keyboards as used in the Hermes Black Roms or Schaps, the ones with numeric keys along the top.
I searched for a OS Keyboard cab, found the perfect "skins" in Schaps thread but it killed the keyboard function entirely. I had to un-install and cold reset to restore it.
I was able to install JJ's Black Shadow Dialer cabs onto my Kaiser which work fine. (I'm using the std Non-Video dialer as I don't have video calling here).
I figure that if the dialer can be replaced with a cab that it should be even easier to have a replacement On-Screen Keyboard Cab.
Is this possible? Man I wish I was a programmer!

I put resco keyboard pro on mine and it works fine. You're right, that keyboard they have one there now sux, especially if you use it to write SMS's or anything else that you would use both text and numbers in.

To get numbers at the top just go to options and change keys from large to small ;)

Yeah. As a noob I quite appreciate the free flow of info and help here.
I had seen the 'Large' and 'Small' options but had misinterpreted them as if the tiny little boxes for keys would get even tinier.
Thanks. That is so much better than constantly switching back and forth from numbers to letters!!

If you want an extremely impressive alternative, then try this: http://www.pocketcm.com/keyboard.php
It's in beta/trial at the moment, but it's a million times better for one-handed thumb-typing while you're on the move...

It's great, I asked for a black keyboard, now I have several skins, Resco's Pro, and PocketCM which is completely awesome.
Add-on Sleuth's app "Sipchange" to be able to pick your normal default keyboard choice and have it stick thru resets and life is GOOD!

I really like the new keyboard as keys are bigger. Much easier to use your bare hand to type. No need for a stylus anymore...
Sure that the numeric keypad is on another keyboard is sometime annoying but overall, th ability to use your finger is heaps better.
