Hello Guys,
As long the Xperia Neo and the Xpera Pro have almost the same hardware (excluding keyboard) I was wondering if it was possible to install a Neo's rom on the Pro.
I really like the keyboard!
I think it is possible but not now some developer must make new rom. There is one problem pro has got hw keyboard neo has got sw keyboard. But i think somebody can do it.
Hello Devs
I guess most of us are tired of using the qwerty keyboard on CyanogenMod with our Xperia Mini's and Mini Pro's.
I was just hoping if any dev could port the STOCK Sony T9 KEYBOARD from our Mini's to CyanogenMod ( CM7 or CM9).
Thanks.
Mod please move the thread if unappropriate.......

Stock keyboard from stock ROM already includes T9 and QWERTY both, and I think it should work fine without porting.
I have used keyboards from other ROMs for long time, haven't experienced problems.

It works for CM7, but what about CM9.......
I tried using the one from this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1535971 but none of the two seemed to work........
Its in the second post, by the name of
2) Black Sony Default Keyboard ENGLISH ONLY OR INTERNATIONAL
(International includes English)
Any solution......????????
Man , CM9.0 for Xperia Mini is the best ROM based on ICS yet , but the keyboard is killing me . I've looked up several posts that have update .zip files for a stock keyboard , but non of them are Alphanumeric Phonepad keyboards , just QWERTY keyboards . If someone could post a link to an update file for CWM with Stock Alphanumeric Phonepad layot keyboard for CM9.0 it would be great !
Anyone? I'm still looking for a T9 keyboard for an Xperia Ray running CM9.
Would this work? I don't want to break anything on my girlfriend's phone...
Thanks

Thanks anonymous.
I'm glad to report that the T9 keyboard from the thread I linked to worked great on an Xperia Ray with Cyanogenmod 9

No idea, sorry I only tried it on an Xperia Ray.
I personally think that every android phone rom should have the T9 keyboard as an option, as is less error prone than the qwerty, if you want to message quickly T9 can do it for you (if your dictionary has been accostumed to your personal vocabulary) and that be done geniusly with the physical keyboard, just my two cents.
Can anyone tell me if the stock T9 keyboard works well on CM7? Will it be a T9 keyboard on CM10?
I tried to flash the xperia S keyboard for fxp149 cm10, It work perfectly with wouch, but the hardqware keyboard on sk17i still the default, even after i delete the AOSP keyboard. IS there a workaround to have T9 input with qwerty, like on the official roms?
I succeeded in using Sony Stock Xperia Mini Pro keyboard on CM9, using the Xperia S package as a guideline on which files to pick (on sk17i there are some more dependencies than on Xperia S, but the basic files are just the same), but only for the soft keyboard and T9...it still doesn't enable typing suggestions when using the hardware keyboard.
Maybe the typing suggestions for hardware keyboard are bundled inside some framework jar?
I really miss them too
Hi
I'm kind of a newbie here ... I was just wondering how do I install the zip file once i ve downloaded it?
I neet to connect my xperiau on the pc and then drag the zip file into the root and then do the volume up button to activate the zip file using flash??
i've got a cnm 10 btw
Hello, would it work on CM11?
Try using Touchpal X keyboard as it has a T9 mode and also supports suggestions while using the hardware keyboard.

CM9 & 10 on sk17i vs. other ROM
Now tried both CM9 & 10 on my SK17i and though it's a quite enjoyable experience, I could never get any of the aforementioned keyboard solutions to work. Also, with both CM9 & 10, regardless of performance settings, heavier apps like Skype (and even Dots [a game which isn't that heavy] and Whatsapp) wouldn't work properly, neither with the keyboard or in general when left running in the background -Skype would drop calls all the time and give stuttering audio. And audio in general is incomparable to the stock ROM.
In the end I switched to this ROM ReVolutioN which unfortunately is discontinued in this form (but as I understand keeps going in another ) which works so much better for my XMP and comes with stock t9 keyboards already installed, superb audio quality and LOADS more free ram, giving a way-way-waaay faster and smoother experience than CM9 or 10 (again, on SK17i) -although neither is even close to as customizable as any CM version, at least not in the same way and the menus aren't quite as pleasurable to navigate.
But there are so many other ROMs out there and you hardly just need the one I chose, or any of the other I tried. There's a whole bunch of them that have either stock xperia mdpi keyboards or xperia s already installed, so I suggest to try that (as you also get back T9 in portrait mode, as well as Sym-key, GLOBE-key and Blue-dot-key functionality plus word suggestions for hardware keyboard).
Still... After months of trying, albeit not every day, I finally opted for another ROM and now, after about another month, I feel I should share this info with any and all who experienced the same as I and the others who posted in this thread.
Thanks for your time, hope you found this helpful.

After updating my mini Pro, my physical keyboard stopped working.
Went and checked the "Written Languages" for the Default Xperia Keyboard.
2 were selected - English and Hinglish(Indian Language Hindi mixture of English).
It was the second language Hinglish causing the problem.
Deselected Hinglish (now only English selected) and my physical keyboard is working fine now.
You could check similar issue in yours, maybe
I downloaded and installed keyboard from this thread . Its from galaxy note 2.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1964814
That keyboard is with gesture typing ( sth like swype) . I cant make gesture working on my sony tablet s. Any ideas how to have it fully worked? Conventional input is good but sometimes keyboard closes/hiddens. I also tried to install stock keyboard from xperia arc s 4.0.3 but it fc.
No issues getting the swype gestures to work here on my Xperiat Tablet S. Works well, but not as visually appealing as the default keyboard.
Add gesture typing works after I changed keyboard language from auto/system to eg. English usa. Could you confirm that in your device ?
This keyboard has issues to fix. When I want to type word letter by letter keyboard closes/minimalises and to continue l must click on write area once or twice to having keyboard. After typing one or two letters keyboard dissapears . This repeats again and again.
Maybe jelly bean keyboard extracted from similar device should work better (xoom).
Any suggestions/improvements/attachments ?
I remember using the proper port and it worked fully until a few seconds and then it really played up, really nice though.

Let see if this will work on sony tablet s ( 1gen).Maybe this will fix self minimalises keyboard problems . Please give a world do you have gesture typing or swype option after xperia jelly bean update.

Hey guys , i just came across a wonderful ROM named Z1 honami exclusive edition by Saqib Nazm for my Xperia mini pro sk17i..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2385612
it is simply the best ROM i've come across till date for my device in terms of every factor that can be considered for a ROM to be legendary....it works on other 2011 xperia devices too
BUT there's only one and only one problem....my screen no more orients itself to landscape mode on hardware keyboard slideout
in case of any other ROM i would have just flashed my phone back to stock as the beauty of the Xperia mini pro lies in premium feel of its hardware keyboard but this ROM is so epic that first time in my life i'm compromising and trying to find a fix to the problem...but nothing's working..!!!
PLEASE HELP

Hello! I also have this problem in the ROM. Please fix the link that you post because the link that you post is for the Honami ROM for Arc/S Pro not for the Xperia MDPI. I have already reported this landscape problem on the thread page of the Honami ROM for Xperia MDPI.
If you have a problem about a ROM, please directly post your problem on the thread page of the ROM that you are currently using to get a reply or a fix from the developer.

thanks for the correction:good:...well i did post my issue in in the Bug reports menu...infact many have....but there's no fix posted till date i assume..:crying:
and i'm a new user so i cannot post to development forums.....
anyways i just wish two things with this ROM...
.
1st...the landscape mode fix on hardware keyboard
and
2nd...the camera app of xperia z1 honami....<3
1. Aneel, the developer of the ROM, said that they are starting to work with the Landscape mode fix. The problem is related to the framework that they used on their ROM.
2. I think they can't port that camera app. I have read somewhere here that the Walkman app of Z1 Honami is hard to port for ICS because it has a higher SDK version. Same thing for the camera app of Z1 Honami. If there is a very highly professional developer that knows everything about programming then maybe the camera app can be ported.

Thanks for the info,bro...
too bad the walkman and camera are hard to port....!!!!
let's hope to get a fix soon...
but anyways the walkman v6 in this ROM is buggy too.....it lags,sometimes hangs;downloading music info is never successfully completed,it suddenly stops the playback randomly....
i've tried almost every available flashable walkman v7.9.A.0.1 on my phone and had to restore my phone several times as i assumed the honami rom to be deodexed as there are no odex files in system/apps but the funny thing i discovered about this ROM is that the apps are deodexed but the framework is not...!!!
i tried xUltimate v2.4.2 and Universal deodexer and many more things.....nothing seems to work....
Can you help me with this?
