First of all, huge thanks to "Onemeila" for the post on removal of Amazon navigation keys. - All credit really goes to him!

I had a hunch that it was the amazon HW Navi keys that were cutting off the keyboard, and that is the case!

Yes, you are right, Onemeila deserves a lot of credit for this. I've also used the same app as well, and on my RAZR M as well.

When i used that method to remove the nav bar it also removed my menu button and i couldn't get to app settings. Did you find a fix for that.

I don't think it's going to happen without tweaking the apk or your build.prop. I tried the Evo's HTC_IME, it installed just fine, but when I opened the keyboard was greeted with this nice little message.

Yes, this is the htc keyboard i want,
with the arrows going up, down, left & right!!!
Does anybody have it working on the vibrant??
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=624416
Grab the high res version for anDroid 2.1 and earlier. Works like a charm, just tested it. No arrows like no evo though.
We need to get the evo version working, I need the arrows lol. I hate not having a way to precisely move through text.
I need one with the arrows at the bottom...

I feel you! That's what I need 2, the arrows just like EVO & HD2, I hate having to use my finger to click in between text, especially when typing passwords, where you can't even see the text!!!
does anyone know of a different keyboard that has these arrows? obviously the htc one from hd2 is the best for this, but is there a free or even paid option that replicates this bit of functionality?

You realize you can swipe from swype icon on the bottom left to the symbol key directly to the right of it to bring up arrows, cut/copy/paste, and delete word/backspace keys, right?
Nice. Thanks!

lol no i didn't... that is some good stuff to have handy. i knew swipe had this but i always had to cycle through a bunch of stuff to get to it. nice quick option. still miss having just the arrows right there, but that might just be out of habit. thanks!

Didn't see this anywhere on the streak forum so here's a link. This is the awesome droidx multitouch keyboard (my favourite by miles) and a certain zach.xtr has changed the colours to dark with green highlight. Recomend for anyone still hunting for a replacement for the useless Dell keyboard on 2.1
Download .apk here [Original Thread]
EDIT: Anyone running the Froyo beta here is the same keyboard and skin for 2.2, this is a .zip so you can push it, flash it or install the .apk

It actually works
I installed the white one, it does vibrate on keypress, but so little its hardly noticeable. It seems like thats a bug on the streak. Does the vibration on this one work better?
Can you just install this or do you have to do something special?
I ask, because on my streak it wouldn´t install. Might be because it´s not rooted yet or because I have the white one installed.
best keyboard by far
Please could someone post clear instructions how to install this onto the Streak.
I've renamed the package "LatinIME.apk" and copied it across to the SD card via USB but I don't understand what to do next.
This is an awesome keyboard. Love the multitouch and the size of it. Thanks for the link!

I can't believe I was being so thick.
I had installed it but not enabled it in settings, and then was wondering why I couldn't choose it as an input method.
This keyboard is so much better than the regular 2.1 keyboard!
:-D
it doesnt look as polished as other keyboards but i really could give a crap. the functionality is beyond fantastic.

Should be standard little mic next to space bar, it doesnt always appear only in normal text input areas. If you don't have it check that its installed or possibly reinstall the keyboard?
I personally like some feedback, but very subtle. Would be cool if someone managed to add the level of haptic feedback as an option in the settings.
HOLEE CRAP this keyboard is amazing... Thanks for sharing!
I'm wondering if anyone has tried porting the stock 1.6 keyboard.
I love the numpad and would hate to have to change to different keyboard as I'm used to using it now.

First of all install this keyboard, then go to settings/language and keyboard/there you will find your keyboard, select it. Then go (for example) to writing message, long touch on writing screen and select Gingerbread keyboard. That's all! Nothing difficult!

Hi there,
I just bought my samsung galaxy S3 and installed the Apex launcher. The fact is that I've seen that below the dock there could be some options of widgets I believe. I 'm trying to find in settings how to add them and nothing. I don't even know the name of those apps. Could anybody let me know how to enable them? .
Thank you

The dock will only show 1x1 widgets I believe. Like a mail widget that is an icon that shows unread messages for example. or like the icon widget in handcent that shows how many unread text messages you have. You add it to your homescreen and you should then be able to drag it to the dock.
Thank you for your reply, however, what I actually meant is below the dock. I am attaching you a picture so you can take a look. It's like the dock goes up a little bit and then below you have 3 options. Any ideas?

Yes, they are on screen buttons, not a dock, you cant add widgets there. If you have the GS3 it looks like you're running AOKP maybe and enabled the onscreen navigation. However, with AOKP you can create more buttons on the nav bar to open up certain apps, or perform certain functions. for that you go to settings, rom control and then navigation. Then you will see you can add more custom nav buttons

Hello. Yesterday, i was searching for an launcher (NOT a home launcher} which allow me to run apps more quickly from any app I'm running at an moment.
I found this app named SwiftOpen. It's thread is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-swiftopen-fast-launcher-beta-t2871523 .
It allow you to add apps shortcuts, even some settings like wifi, so you can put wifi on more easy. You swipe from right (you can change the place from where to swipe) and the launcher come.Read the whole description of it's thread. Oh, and don't forget to press thanks button to the developer
Review / My opinion:
In my opinion it does a great job. I don't even have to press home button to go in another app. It use about 15 MB ram. Last night i had 58% battery and i kept this app running in background and today, in the morning, i had same battery percent. So, it seems that it doesn't drain battery.
Now i don't even need to use the home button, as i placed an shortcut of "home" in the bottom left
I downloaded the latest version released. I encountered one bug: when i want to change the place of an shortcut, the app crash, but the shortcut get moved.
Here is an screenshot. You see an white square in the right, it's because i kept my finger there to take an screenshot, otherwise the launcher dissapear. By the way, you can add more shortcuts, even Tasker ones !!!

Also found this app recently, it's the best launcher by a long shot. I have a G4 and I hate the softkeys taking up screen space, as you mentioned this app means you don't need any other buttons or home button.
Thanks for the tip to put this launcher in the place of the home button, I had it on the side but now that you mention it that's naturally the best spot to put it.
Do you use it on Lollipop and use the Alt-tab feature?
That's not working for me on 5.1, think it's a lollipop issue?
