[Request] A Mod to change N9's Keyboard
 
Hello guys,
I personally think that the keyboard design of the N9 is not nice, it needs a new one, I have tried F2thaK's FDB theme, but it only changes the color of the keyboard, I want a keyboard like SwiftKey 3 Keyboard on NITDroid but a free one, please someone try to develop a mod/app for this, I don't want to push on anyone, I know that some people will find this useless, if no one can do it, it's alright, I am just sharing my opinion here :)
Thanks! :)

You don't like Swype?

No it's not easy to work with, I'm a fast typer and the layout just isn't nice, the letters are just too close to each other, if you notice SwiftKey 3 Keyboard on NITDroid, it's just awesome, I just hope someone develops something similar to it with an auto-correction setting...

I want themed keyboard as well. The standard one is not very nice looking but it is the most comfortable virtual keyboard I have ever used.

I don't want to use swipe as I never swype to type! And it doesn't have the haptic feedback of the original keyboard which I can't be without after using it.

So yeah. A clean theme for our keyboard would be super!

Re: [Request] A Mod to change N9's Keyboard
 
Finally, an agreement! :D

F2thaK 2012-08-23 10:46

Re: [Request] A Mod to change N9's Keyboard
 
I (think) Ive added some haptic feedback to the Swype VKB... When I have time I will try to add more.

Re: [Request] A Mod to change N9's Keyboard
 
I have been hoping there is an easy way to just replace the stock keyboard images but I believe there isn't one as far as I know. Basically it's just the background of the keys that would need to be changed. I assume there's just three images or something for all the keys.

It has always had haptic feedback as far as I know. Just not the comfortable double haptic feedback of the original keyboard. In your theme it has the single haptic feedback it always had for me.

I didn't understand what you said exactly, I'm 13 :P I don't know what does this mean

F2thaK 2012-08-23 10:58

Re: [Request] A Mod to change N9's Keyboard
 
Ive added extra haptic feedback in my theme.

I don't what a complete theme, I just want a small modification of the keyboard only please!

The VKB could very likely be tweaked, all someone needs is time.

So, is there hope anyone can develop a new VKB soon?

AMD common you've to start learning stuff too instead of asking people to do everything for you and that too for free....

Spend sometime to get to the contents of F2thak's theme find the keyboard mod files and work on them by copying them to standard blanco theme...

You may be a beginner like you always say but you are not an idiot that cant learn, right?

Wait, but I have the free version, which doesn't contain the keyboard files, and I am a kid so I don't have this paypal thingy to donate.. So I am still stuck..

Lol, yeah my dad think these are useless stuff that I care about, for a million years he wont think of doing that :P He is a Boss, he barely cares about my phone, he just cares about his iPhone :P

Re: [Request] A Mod to change N9's Keyboard
 
Although.... I have a backup plan, the incredible wook_sf is going to release a very nice theme which is very cool, until he releases it, he will change the keyboard colors afaik and I will download it hopefully :)
So, a big THANK YOU for wook_sf and Flotron for making this theme :D

AMD 2012-08-23 14:57

Re: [Request] A Mod to change N9's Keyboard
 
In short translation to everyone, YES, this IS going to be epic... Just in a few minutes and everyone will notice my stupidity :D

No! The point is that I want another design of the keyboard! For example if you look in Play Store in NITDroid/Android and search for "SwiftKey 3 Keyboard" This one is just perfect! I can type on it extremely fast and it feels very comfortable as well as the letters, they are well separated apart and they have very nice themes :D

Your only option is to pay SwiftKey lots of money to make a keyboard for the N9. (They would need ALOT of money)

Or

Use an android device or NITdroid

Don't worry when I grow up, I will pay as much as they want to get it to MeeGo :P

Lol nevermind :P I got the concept now, lol but if just someone can make a small free mod of diff. color of the keyboard (blue, green, whatever..) would be great :D

Re: [Request] A Mod to change N9's Keyboard
 
btw F2thaK I want things free because I can't get things paid when I'm a kid, but seriously if I were a grown up I would donate all my money for your great work, seriously, keep it up! :D

Yes, for both, but I bet F2thaK works harder, so I will give him more, TMO is more precious for me :D

How about a light version of current keyboard base on pop up context menu colors?

Light-gray background, white button for characters and slightly darker for other buttons with black text.

You know what, if a diff. color of the keyboard and disabling the vibration of the keyboard is done, it would be perfect, I don't want to go to settings, and put silent mode then turn the volume down to make the keyboard good!
