TapnTap Western Keyboard from the G-Tablet

[xguntherc]

Is there any way I can get the keyboard apk from our G-Tablets in a apk form and just install it to another device?

I'd like to get this and install it to my Archos 101 when it arrives.. I know there's a zip of the keyboard but I need it in apk form. If anyone knows how I could do this I'd greatly appreciate it.

It's two files - /system/app/TapNTapIME.apk and /system/lib/libjni_tapntapime.so. Rothnic was able to port it to the zPad firmware, so there's a good chance that it could work on the 101.

Of course, you'd need to root the 101 and that might be where you get snagged.

we can temp root the 101. Why do I need root? So I can flash the zip. I can push the lib and flash the apk?

I pulled the IME.apk and the lib file from the gapps pack already

I can temp root, Why do I have to root in order to install the TapnTap keyboard.. I'd love a little info about that. Thanks!
edit* i got the Tap keyboard zip in case the Archos 101 gets clockwork

I'm going to be trying this Today on the Archos 101 with Temp root.

adding the tapntapIME.so to libs, as well as the APK to system and see if it works.. Do I need ADB to push the APK, or can I move it with root explorer

edit* Nope. the Archos system/ is write protected so I can't copy the libs and apk into it.. yet!
