Okay, I'm fairly new around here, I haven't really posted anything, but i've been checking up on stuff for my phone and everything, I just have one question. I have the rom Nonsensikal. How can I get the keyboard from KaosFroyo V36 onto my Nonsensikal rom?
I know there is a few threads, but I would like to hear it again on this one, I would also like to change the keyboard. I know your supposed to download the keyboard you want, and on most 2.1 roms you have to change the keyboard apk to lLatinIME.apk i believe
Yeah, I'm just not sure how to go about downloading the one I want? Or, even putting it on my rom?
it really depends on what keyboard...if your are just adding one like swype or any other keyboard from the market you just install it like any other app and then go in settings/keyboard and check the box to enable it. Then long press on a text input area such as an email or any where you would type and it will bring up an option for input method where you can choose the keyboard you want to use. If you want to use the droidx keyboard or another "hacked keyboard" then there should be instructions in the thread where you get it for installing it.

Okay, Maybe you can help me out here then. Which keyboard is used in KaosFoyo V36? because that's the keyboard I want. and when I looked at the droidX keyboard. all it says is push it to "location" but how do I do that?

about 4 posts down, there is a flashable .zip you can use rom manager to flash. Once your phone boots back up, long press in the box you type, and select multi-touch for the imput method.
droidx-signed.zip i beleive is the name of the file.
Further along in the post is a grey type version, though i have not been able to get that one to work, aborts install and FC's on my constantly.. so I am just sticking with the white one.

i want this:

(switch xx to tt)
menu on the homescreen.
i want an icon on which i click and then it shows me the menu to send sms/call/mail a person in my contactlist
On 2.1, this works. For instance, go to most recent call's. That is left under in default configuration. Then click once on the picture of a contact. This should now open the menu.

Well, this can be done with the 'people widget' included in launcher pro plus.
It's the best purchase I have done, and no, this is no advertising!
my problem ist, that i want to customize the icon with desktop visualizer.
i dont like the look of this one.
I figured out how to remove the useless dock icons from Launcher Pro, it's a little bit of a workaround, but it works...and I love me some LauncherPro
1. Make a backup of a launcher pro home screen from another android device, without any dock icons or with the ones you want.
2. Copy the "/sdcard/launcherpro_backup" directory from your other device onto your Nook Color (into the same place on the SD card), and restore launcher pro from the backup. (I used Astro to do all the dirty work)
Here is a zipped backup of my blank launcher pro setup (no dock icons, no widgets, no nothing):

(I can't make links yet, so just copy/paste the URL...)

Thanks for adding the link, soon I will be able to...I've spent far too long as a lurker...
You Sir are a genius; thanks for this that was starting to bother me with that damned useless phone icon
did this, but now when I go to re-add my shortcuts to the homescreen, only the icons get added, not the text under them...

Isn't there an option in preferences to hide icon names? Could it be checked?

Yes, the checkbox is at Preferences > Appearance Settings > Hide Icon Labels.
Not a genius...just stuck in my ways. Launcher Pro has always been the fastest one out there!
Thanks, though!

Yep...sorry about that. I am kind of a minimalist, so hiding the home screen labels is my default. Thanks for pointing out where it was in the settings.

So after i restore to blank can i add new shortcuts in the dock. I long press and tap add shortcut and it just brings up the honescreen again.
Can't add shortcuts on NC. BN cripped that functionality.

You can't, unless you have access to another device that you can use to make a backup with the correct shortcuts that you want to use.
I was considering making one with a couple of actually useful shortcuts for the Nook Color...but I am afraid that there would be a flood of requests, and there are more important things that need work for me.
If anyone would want to step up and offer that, I'm sure there would be some happy customers!
Sent from my Nook Color
I may be misunderstanding, but I can add shortcuts to the home screen (launcher pro) by going to the app page and holding down the app icon until it jumps back to the home screen. I can't move them to the dock at the bottom of the page, tho.
rooted with auto-nooter 2.12.18. BTW, thanks!
Here is my back up with market, gmail, estrongs file explorer, and internet.
Is it just a question of hand editing the com.fede.launcher_preferences.xml file?

edit: I hope this is the right one and not an older backup

Hope this isn't the Pro version, If I'm not mistaken it also includes your registration info.
Thanks for this, might as well get rid of the icons we cant even use!!

So as this works great... as in I load up launcher pro on my Epic 4G, change all icons to what apps are on nook color that I want down on the 3 sliding bars, backup and then restore to nook. Kinda a pain to do that more than once
I loaded Launcher Pro 0.8.2 onto the nook color running 2.2.1 via MicroSD card and it works great. Not a single lockup resizing things, and can add, remove and customize any of the icons in dock all I want. Here is a youtube of that.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ra8xROjFpY4
So I guess that is just another one of those things that just won't work like it should via a hacked up 2.1 on these things? I would love to have that workin... As like the other guy says... I love me some launcher pro. Just not sure if I should give up hope and just wait for some legit Froyo action for things to be all purdy.
Other than having to convert videos for this thing so far and having to use Zeam which I actually am starting to like, these Nook Colors are awesome! Can't beat a tablet with this power and this screen for $250!

If you mean changing which apps are on the dock, its simply drag and drop. If you want to change what the icon for a certain app looks like, here are the instructions from another post in the Theme's forum.

YES!! you get it !!
I want to change the main 4 Dock icon.
First, you can only change 3 of the 4 dock icons, because Applications has to stay. I don't have my phone yet so I can't try it out and tell you for sure, but I do know for a fact you can change 3 of them. You probably have to hit the bottom left button (next to the physical home button), then pick Edit. You should then be able to drag and drop...
Just click on the applications button to bring them up, then press the left menu button and then choose edit, then you can drag any app icon into the first three spaces..
Hope this was helpfull
I just changed over to task650-aokp-build-35 and in the process of setting everything up again. I can not find a feature to designate phone numbers for speed dialing. Can someone point me in the right direction? Other than that, the ICS build is awesome.
Thanks,
Jim
First, update to build 37.
Open up the phone and hit menu, settings, speeddial.
Thanks. I'm a noob so one question. Can I just do an update or do I have to wipe and flash again?

There is no selection for SpeedDial in the list. Any ideas?
Im not on latest either, and do not have the option. and have no clue, other than what red said, if its even in the ROM.
but if you didnt do a full wipe, then some features might be missing.
The stock AOKP dialer does not support speed dial. You can however set favorites. If you need speed dial just download a different dialer from the market that supports it.

I went with xDialer from the market. It seems to have what I am looking for. Now, if I can only find a way to reassign the stock dialer button to run it I will be happy.

If the icon is all you want - download a Go Launcher EX ICS theme. And assuming you are using Nova launcher that comes with AOKP (if you are not you should, it is awesome). Press and hold the dialer icon of you new dialer app - and replace the icon of your new dialer with one from the ICS theme icon pack from Go Launcher.
It sound like a PITA but it really isn't. I did the same thing cause I do not like the GMail icon for I did the above steps and replaced it with the stock email icon.
I just found a way to do what I wanted. Part of ICS is guess.
1. Place shortcut to app on home screen
2. press and hold shortcut until it can be moved.
3. drag and drop on top of phone icon.
(this creates a toolbar with both apps)
4. tap toolbar to show both icons
5. press and hold stock dialer icon until it can be moved.
6. drag icon to delete area.
(this leaves only the dialer icon in place of the stock dialer icon)
Cool stuff. I am liking ICS better and better.

Does this have anything to do with your original question, the speed dial?
I've tried to visualize your 6 steps above and can't imagine how that accomplish what you want.
The original question of how to get speed dial is answered by replacing the stock dialer with one from the market. The last part is replacing the stock dialer shortcut with the shortcut to the replacement dialer.

there is a much easier way of replacing that.
remove one. replace with another. no need to make a folder with both apps, and then remove one. This has nothing to do with ICS, just the launcher. and that feature has been around for years.
Play around with android, its pretty cool.

Thumbs up.
This exactly what I had in mind, but I thought OP made 6-step speed-dial working. If just for placing the icon (new app) on the home scree, it could be done in 2 steps, one remove the stock, two, place the new one on the home screen.
