New Languages: I can add new latin-based languages easily, check first post in "FastSMS" thread to discover what I need. I absolutely can't add new languages(that I don't know) without support.
I'm planning to add also support to non latin languages, strating from greek, but here I need a collaborative people to understand the language...

A lot of people ask for something and then disappears: sorry but I only know italian and a bit of english

I'm gonna try to find the time to look through your source code and see if I can learn some Qt as soon as I can. I'm about to intensify my job searching as me and my GF have plans to get our own place and we definitely need an income to not completely mooch our parents. But I'll do my best to find the time to help as promised a few pages back.

A long time ago, I installed this: http://blog.rburchell.com/2010/06/ma...es-we-can.html
never really used it, but it might be overriding fastsmsevo because evo doesnt appear when the vkb is called for; only this thing appears. Is it a fault of fastsmsevo or this thing? Any ideas how I can remove it and try fastsmsevo?
Also, you should always do your best to remember what everything you installed is called. Open up an app manager and search for "portrait". It should be called something like "portrait-input-method" or "portrait-virtual-keyboard". You should be able to recognize it when you see the name, it's pretty indicative of what it is. If you still can't figure out what it is let me know and I'll figure out the name for you.
Anyway, uninstall that, and reboot. If that still doesn't work, uninstall and reinstall FastSMSEvo, and reboot again.

The term I'd use for the symbol is "bar", not sure what it's supposed to be called though, you might be right.Also elsewhere in this thread I read the problem that fastSMS isnt showing the caret line of where new text will be inserted.. Mine's behaving like that too.. if i tap in the TO box, i see the caret |
If i tap in the write-message area, it shows briefly then disappears and doesnt come back. What went wrong?

is it possible to have the keys that's normally in the sym (function+ctrl) part of the default keyboard? in particular the percentage sign..
also is there a reason the ampersand doesn't show up on the keyboard? it works but it hasa blank space on the keyboard layout.

You can then close it and you should be able to access it in portrait mode

I'd still love for the overlay window / input area to be half the size it currently is. Makes exiting and committing MUCH easier with one hand, versus reach up to a small 1/4" sized area.

Try different apps to call it initially. For me conversations works best but Notes might be a good one to try.

See attached for picture of the recommended window preview size. You can get this by loading the VKB in landscape mode, then rotating it to portrait. It's drawn half way on the screen.

Let me get something clear first. You need fastsms in order for fastsmsevo to work correct?
I tried to open the vkb while texting, but it does not work. I haven't tried it with Notes yet.

never really used it, but it might be overriding fastsmsevo because evo doesnt appear when the vkb is called for; only this thing appears. Is it a fault of fastsmsevo or this thing? Any ideas how I can remove it and try fastsmsevo?
