Some current Android builds contain HTC keyboard with arrows key, some without. Some build has default android stock keybord which has sound input button.
Can somebody tell mi how to move booth keyboards from one build to another. I can mount system.ext2 under Linux, but I don't found any .apk with keyboard or key in name. Where are hidden?

Im not suer if you will be able to have both keyboards in one build unless maybe you rename it? You'll find the keyboard with arrows on any EVO build.
But if you just want to install one or another, the easy way would be ADB.
I already have build with booth stock and touch keyboard, but many of builds doesn't have booth and doesn't have touch with keyboard.
And I have ADB, but I don't found keyboard APK in system.ext2, because of this I ask where is or which name have.
And Why someone move my thread to HD2 Q&A to outside of Android development thread. I don't understand this.
I reply myself.
The right keyboard name is "IME", but is not possible directly move keyboard to another build because of ODEX, but for example here is deodexed stock keyboard:

working oem packages
original post:
==================================
Hi,
I have an issue with EzInput 2.1 - it doesn't save users custom words.
First of all I searched this forum, I used google, and all I found - just some users complain and confirm this bug.
I dumped ROM from russian HTC Mega, compared its conents with my Iolite ROM and there is how to fix first part of this bug:
Add this lines to your initflashfiles.dat
Directory("\Windows"):-Directory("ET9IMEDB")
Directory("\Windows\ET9IMEDB"):-File("eT9AsDb.Adb","\Windows\eT9AsDb.Adb")
Directory("\Windows\ET9IMEDB"):-File("eT9Rudb.Rdb","\Windows\eT9Rudb.Rdb")
After this fix EzInput 2.1 will save and use new words that you type, see attached screenshots.
On the first screenshot you can see how EzInput suggest "mynewword" exactly after I just typed this (I used this strange word just as an example).
On the second screenshot you can see XT9 My Words program (eT9MyWords.exe in your Windows directory) with this new word.
Now I have second part of this bug - this list is empty after reboot, all custom words are gone.
I don't think this is a new feature, it's a bug.
If you know how to fix this, help me please.
I use
IME_Engine_Western_2_1_19191429_00
IME_EzInput_Western_2_1_19183030_00
I have two versions of this packages - one from WWE Mega ROM and second I dumped from Russian Mega ROM 1.28
I get this bug with any of these versions.
I checked this under
WM6.1 build 21055
WM6.5 build 21854 (from official Mega Russian ROM)
I get this bug with any of these versions.
To reproduce this bug:
1. You must have EzInput 2.1 (EzInput 1.5 doesn't have this bug)
2. Open your text editor (for example Word)
3. Type "mynewword". New line.
4. Start typing "mynew..." - EzInput should suggest you your new word (see screenshot). If it doesn't - you can fix this as I write above
(create ET9IMEDB folder in Windows, copy eT9AsDb.Adb and eT9Rudb.Rdb to this folder, reboot)
5. open eT9MyWords.exe from Windows folder - you should see new word in a list.
6. reboot your device - open eT9MyWords.exe from Windows folder, there are 0 words, list is empty.
I cannot check this on Mega ROM as it is as I don't have this device.
Maybe this bug is made by me during porting...
Maybe this depends on boot sequence?...
I tried to copy these files after I added words,
\Windows\ET9IMEDB\eT9AsDb.Adb
\Windows\ET9IMEDB\eT9Rudb.Rdb
I see how date of file is changed and I wanted to compare it's by content after reboot, but files are always locked. Is there a way to find out who is locking these files?
Help me if you can.
I also want to know if someone has same bug.
there are some links to user posts with the same problem:
"With SMS ( texto in France) I am not able to creat my own words,
( when I add a new word, It says ok, but this new word is NOT added to 'personal dictionary' )"
"after adding a custom word in t9 that it does not save the password previously entered after a reboot!"
"the t9/Xt9 DOESN'T LEARN new words."
"It' great but there's no way to add customized words"
I've the same bug !
Help plz ....
I just made new test -
I removed this files
eT9AsDb.Adb
eT9Rudb.Rdb
from my ROM
flashed new ROM.
EzEnput doesn't save new words.
I created folder
\Windows\ET9IMEDB\
copied these two files to this folder
reset device
EzEnput saves words, words are in the list, but
...
words disappears after soft reset...
EzEnput obviously uses
\Windows\ET9IMEDB\eT9AsDb.Adb
\Windows\ET9IMEDB\eT9Rudb.Rdb
but something wrong with saving or loading...
What do you think?
I've got exactly the same problem. I now have a ROM which standard has the 'ET9IMEDB' folder, and now it remembers my words now, even after soft reset. I don't know what causes your problem, I just wanted to let you know that I have the same problem on many ROMS.

Possible that the files or folder or files and folder is READ ONLY ?

No, in my last test, when I copied files after I flashed my device, I removed read-only attributes.
I can see in total commander how file date changes, but it still forgets everything after reset.

Can you please give me a link to your ROM?
I want to contact a person who solved this bug =)
I am using Duttys HD WM6.5 Leo R7 right now, and 'Add Words' works fine. Link to the ROM is http://htcpedia.com/forum/showthread.php?t=304 .
I hope you will figure this out, because I prefer Miri's rom but unfortunately that ROM does have the 'Add Words' problem.
Thanks!
One more test - I build new ROM and replaced
IME_Engine_Western_2_1_19191429_00
with
IME_Engine_Western_1_5_33136_0
This combination
IME_EzInput_Western_2_1_19183030_00
IME_Engine_Western_1_5_33136_0
works fine, it saves all new words, My Words editor works, I can reset my device and all words will be saved.
But in this case GUI is mixed from different versions:
I have all new cool keyboard and old style black pop-ups for suggested words...
It's better than nothing, but I will search more. =)
Maybe someone knows what's the difference between IME_Engine 1.5 and 2.1?
Maybe new engine depends on some new components?
By the way IME Engine 1.5 creates new files
eT9AsDb.Adb
eT9Rudb.Rdb
in my Windows folder, and this files are not included in my ROM.
And I can copy these files, files are not locked by another process.
How to find out which process is locking files when IME Engine 2.1 is used?
the only difference after having decompiled ezinput ENGINE 2.0 and 2.1 is that in 2.1 the dll "checkIme.ddl, eT9Dictionary.dll, eT9DisInput.dll, eT9ime.dll and eT9RegInput.dll are in a separate directory while not in 2.0.

Can you please post screenshot, or just tell me how it looks on your device:
Does it look like this (Engine 2.1) or like this (Engine 1.5)?
The difference is how word suggestion looks - green selection and floating window (2.1), black string docked to keyboard (1.5).
the look is the look of 1.5 if you use... but on the 2.1 package the dll is in a folder separeted and in folder the dll is with "imageinfo.bin, imageinfo.txt, s000, s001, s002, s003, s004, s005, s006
i use Ervius Visual Kitchen for decompilate ROM...

Thanks for the efforts !

I installed new ROM based on WM65 and ported from HTC Mega and the same packages now work. So the problem is not in EzInput or IME Engine.
It's obviously some external dependencies or settings.
I want to find out what EzInput 2.1 depends on.
Hi everybody,
I got my new LGOO. I am not new to Android, I was using a phone with 2.1 before and I want the same keyboard than before.
* Dictionary
When I active the Android Keyboard there is no prediction which word I want to write, only the ones from my contacts.
I found a tool in the market (User Dictionary Manager (UDM) 3.1) but this only adds words to the user dictionay and doesn't make differences between languages. I want to use english and german from time to time so I need it both seperated. It seems like the phone doesnt have the languages files out of the box. Is it somehow possible to copy and paste it to the system? (I have root access)
* Correction
Also it doesn't correct my errors of typing. This worked under 2.1 and I can't find an option to activate it.
Thanks

Same problem too

Someone has solved installing the gingerbread keyboard.
I solved installing Swype keyboard.
any luck with this?
this happens only with stock roms. i tried the Android keyboard on custom roms and it was perfect.
---------- Post added at 01:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:21 PM ----------
anyway, I'm really glad that the "gingerbread keyboard" app works and replaces the default kb.
btw, I just installed the newest Swype beta and it's simply awesome.

Dear All Friends;
I tried to cook my roms for about 6 months, and I have some good progess, but the only thing that I can not fix is, that I could not add persian(Or arabic) language support to roms, and this is because of the nature of the languages, I do not need the roms to show any menu or anything in persian, but I want them to support the characters and show them good.
The persian need characters to be connected and written from right to left, but in any rom that you COPY just FONTS, the rom just shows the characters in not proper format.
After many researches I found that language related files are, libskia, libskiagl and webcore in libs folder, so I tried to use these libs files and copy them from A rom that support these well to my rom, but after doing this, the rom does not run properly and stoped at the HTC logo at the starting of the cellphone in HTC SPLASH SCREEN...
I do not know what should I do..
If any one knows anything about this, please help me..
Any help has been appreciated...
The way to import is:
1- Add your language ( here persian ) to System/Fonts ( maybe you need to replace with the existed fonts. )
2- In some languages (Hebrew, Arabic, Persian) you need to have the usefull LIBSKIA, LIBSKIAGL and WEBCORE in your system/libs to support the characters that you added in first step, correctly.
The problem:
I tried to add the LIBSKIA, LIBSKIAGL and WEBCORE from a rom that supports the Persian and Arabic well to this folder in my own rom that did not support those well.
BUT, After installing rom in cellphone, It did not go to HomeScreen and freezed in HTC SPLASH SCREEN that showed in rom installing time.
I do not know how can I use them, please some one help me...
And me too

Guys,
I heard from android developers that HarfBuzz (which used in chrome for complex layout) will be used in honeycomb. So most probably all the languages that Chrome/Chromium support will be supported in honeycomb. Hope some one could port this to 2.1 2.2 2.3 also. I don't know weather the source is available yet.

well i have tried that too it doesnt work
i think only 2 developers were succesful in doing that
ayman el snd in his web site ardoid .com he makes a custom .zip flashable file for each rom specifically and you are right this 2 lib files (libwebcore.so & libskia.so)are modified and also framework.jar
so its rom specific not in general
and there were an arabic developer here on xda which provided cyanogen with arabic support in his latest roms so any rom based on cyanogenmod rom latest supports arabic but limited only to messaging and you have to install smart keyboard and arabic keyboard for smart keyboard so you can write arabic
and for browser the only way to show arabic letters properly is installing persian browser which fixes the problem after each page loads
ofcourse its partial solutions
i would love to help on anyway to provide a way to custom edit the lib files of any rom just needs DEVs here to point the way how to edit such files

Thanks man...
You helped me so much..
You mentioned that those lib files that the aymen el snd made is not for a specific device, Am I Right???
It means we can use them in our roms, but how does this possible?? Each rom needs its own libs, how can we use one lib for all the devices?? (Would you please talk about it more? and which version of roms do these libs support? (2.2 ,2.1 or 2.3)

well what i'm said that he is making a .zip file for each rom release he is always up to date with new releases of roms like the OTA roms and cyanogenmod roms
you can check his website for more details of the supported devices and roms
he made a generic .zip file but that mostly doesnt work
what i have learned that he gets the lib files source code of a certain rom and then add the arabization codes then compile the lib files so the lib files would be identical to the ones in the rom + arabization snippets of code
i'm glad to help you in anyway
i really want to have more time to investigate that but i dont for now

I have to find a way to do this, find the Arabbizer Snippets...

I like to use the new keyboard from android 4.2 but it's not included the dictionary of my language like it does in my original aosp keyboard, so I tried to get the keyboard dictionary from my old apk,
And put it into the new 4.2 apk, and then I packed it back to zip, and I changed the name to ***.apk but it can be installed, it says, the app was not installed...
What do I need to do???
Please help

With cm10 fishers
I would like to know the answer to that question, too. I'm interest to add Hungarian sand Romanian as additional add-on dictionaries.
I'd also like to use the 4.2 keyboard on my HTC Doubleshot with CM 9.1. Where did you guys download it? I only found the package for 4.1 devices. And of course I'd like to use the system dictionary.
Also, I've tried the pre-release keyboard install method and it didn't work when I flashed the .zip. However now that the code is out it's principally pretty easy to create an .apk right? Also can this made the way so that it uses the system dicitonaries?
Thanks

Hi
I have Xperia Mini Pro . When I hold shift key and press one of the buttons,for exaple rather than it type sign ! , the @ sign is typed . at ICS ROMs this problem is solved by this post. But in the other roms such as JB , miui , Cyanogen Mod & ither roms I do not know how to solve this problem. Please help me.
Are you on CM 10 official ..???
If yes then there might be no fix (Might be not sure just google and find it).
Either flash CM 10 based custom ROM so that the DEVS will provide you with the DEV files for your phone .(i.e- Dev files for mini pro etc.)
you just need to flash them in CWM.
This will probably fix your prob.
Hit thanks if i helped
