Droid X / 2 Multi touch keyboard on unrooted Froyo Droid? - Motorola Droid X2

I had this keyboard on my Eclair Droid and loved it, but the Froyo OTA killed it and I've been looking for a replacement that works with froyo, but every one I find either can't be downloaded or fc's after typing only a few letters, even after reboot. Please please please does anyone have a Droid 2/X multi touch keyboard that can help me out?
(Sorry if there's already a thread, but I've searched and searched and downloaded file after unusable file, but to no avail. If there is a thread, link please?)
Thanks a ton!

Awesome. Using it now to type. Is there a grey/ white version?

Awesome, thanks a ton. Works like a charm.

This version is working great on Droid 1 2.2 stock. But I've seen skinned versions for other phones, are there any skinned versions using this package that works on the droid 1???

Here's the native keyboard. Not sure if it will run on unrooted froyo as I'm on GB. But you can take a crack at it.

best android keyboard for streak

so far I have tried a lot of keyboards on the streak and the best one I have found is SlideIT from the android market..... the only thing is its a little bit on the pricey side but you can find the free one there too but only use it for a week.... you can use swipe on it and its really big.....
Wish swype would open beta again.

i know we cant post links to ripped or hacked versions of swype on xda. but you can find wvga (not hvga!) versions of 2.4.44.10912.t100 which is the latest version and works great.
what android are you on 2.1 or 2.2 from steve, if stock should work
As rumors on streaksmart.com are saying, Swype will be default keyboard on DellĀ“s official 2.2 for the Streak.
I can't wait for Blindtype to come out.

Maybe since google bought them it'll be released in gingerbread?!?
I hope the .apk will be out for it. We are just getting froyo, gingerbread might be a while more for us
I've been using swype and it's brilliant in portrait, not as great in landscape though. I don't think I'm allowed to post a link on this forum but if you Google swype wvga 2.6.47.11856 apk you'll find it
I use slideIt and like it.
Thanks for this tip. Slide It is awesome on my streak. The keys are huge and the swype like features are cool too.
Thanks!

2 Q's (multitouch keyboard and steel)

1) I'm running eugene's macnut R12 right now. fantastic rom, but unfortunately the droid multitouch keyboard wasn't included in R12 (as opposed to a few previous versions)
I'm in love with that keyboard. I'm so much faster using that then swype, believe it or not. I've seem other threads on the keyboard but nothing I've seen seems to work with my phone?
Anyone have an APK or anything to help me out with getting multitouch on my phone?
2) Not much of a question, but why is Steel internet browser so underated? I've been using it for months. Since my mytouch 3g, it's been such a solid browser.
I pulled a MT KB .apk from a Rom. It works on R12, but the fonts on the keys is hella small. Try pulling it from a previous Rom or I could send you one.

This is by far the best kb, I first saw it in R10.

Pardon my ignorance, but who's gothroid?
Bumping this.
Went through the .zips from the Droid multitouch threads I found on this site, no luck with them ;(
The last thing from making me love Macnut R12 is not having the keyboard with it, halpp!
tried pulling the droid multitouch apk from Macnut R10 and installing it on my phone.
it attempts to install it but after a few seconds it says its unsucessful ;(
Steel is my go to browser. Most comfortable and lite for me. But I haven't seen an update in ages. I think it's a little orphan appy.
Don't blame me, blame my keyboard's autocorrection algorithm.

Did you try installing it like a system app (through root explorer) or a normal 3rd party apk?
The Droid X MT keyboard that works for the vibrant, both 2.1 and 2.2 has been posted here. The 2.2 is skinned to look like the samsung keyboard only, but 2.1 has both the original and samsung look.

Hi,
I'm not sure why you lost apps, but I can guarantee its not my zip. Here's exactly what my zip file does:
Code:
delete SYSTEM:app/LatinIME.apk
copy_dir PACKAGE:app SYSTEM:app
copy_dir PACKAGE:lib SYSTEM:lib
and if you look inside those folders, /system/app only has dxkeyboard.apk and /system/lib only has libjni_latinime.so
If you run any of the new 2.2 kernels from eugene or team whiskey that have been built from hacked i9000 source, that might be causing your problems. I've had /data wiped just by rebooting into recovery using various 2.2 kernels.
Good luck, cheers, =)
^^ im not upset at all bro, you dont know how happy i am to have multitouch on this rom.
i undrstand having a custom rom some random/weird stuff happens, i just need to run titanium backup more often thanks!

Glad to see other fans here I just saw him about 2 weeks ago in concert... it was a lot of fun. But glad to see you got your multi touch keyboard working..

Request (multi-touch keyboard)

I've been looking around and I can't seem to find the particular keyboard Im wanting. On the Auxora rom there is a multitouch keyboard I really like. What I like about it is that the keys are larger than the rest and that goes well with my shrek fingers. Can someone please point me in the right direction for this. I have installed and flashed every multitouch keyboard I can find on the forums and so far none of them are identical to the one packaged with auxora.

Axura uses the gingerbread KB... there is a version in the development section. You could also just take the .apk from the Azura rom and put it in system/app
I would if I knew what the apk was named. I don't wanna screw anything up.

Hey, like the other guy said your best bet would be to just pull the keyboard app and push it to your /system/app using root explorer. You really can't mess anything up. Just make a copy of the app that you are overwriting then overwrite it. Usually the keyboard is labeled "LATINIME.apk" or something along those lines.

Try using Android SS for screen shots. Simple, easy, free, no ads!
Works great for me.
I think I'd want the real ICS, fan made ones are usually not as good

Ill give it a shot (pun intended) when i get home from work later. Im also gonna take a shot at the launcher for u as well. I work for an iphone developer in the process of making the switch to include droid so im learning as much as i can. Any info about phone or tablet it came from or anything u think will help feel free to pm me. Been ripping apart the droid sdks from cupcake to gingerbread for the past 2 weeks at work already and on multiple forums soaking up as much info as i can in my off time. Am already considering posting a rom of my own based off the liberty test build. If i can get the ics launcher workin within a few days ill include it as the stock launcher lol

Why not just try the gingerbread keyboard from the Market.
It's even customizable.

Yes I agree I do like gingerbread. Keyboard better Easer to type with my fatty fingers

I also like the Gingerbread keyboard the most (eg. the stock one on CM7). I was surprised by this after trying Swiftkey, Smart Keyboard Pro, MultiLing Keyboard, Swype, and a few others, but the Gingerbread/CM7 keyboard, at least for me, gave me the fewest mistakes along with fast speeds.
