Exclamation HTC Keyboard on my XDAndroid TP2?? Can't get it to work.

Trying to get the HTC keyboard for my phone cuz let's face it, the android keyboard sucks. I've been following this thread over on the XDA Nexus One thread and have followed it exactly installing both APK's. Each time when i long click and select Touch Input, no keyboard shows up on the screen.

I'm not exactly sure why it won't work since i have installed several other keyboards over the past.

If anyone knows how to get this working, or is experiencing a similar issue please let me know.

Default working keyboard for android tilt 2

first you have to go to the xdandroid startup icon and make sure the model is on tilt 2 mode, then boot. just like using the regular keyboard. able to use fn key to enter numbers not like when they are all at the top.
