tried it.
Works well...kind of like zoomboard.
Only gripe I have is that in landscape mode, the keys seem to be smaller than that of the HTC shown in the XDA thread. I know it might have something to do with resolution, but I mean, look at all that space not being used in landscape mode....
I think they are onto something if it the update it anymore. But if not, I guess it will have to suffice.

Is there scandinavian keyboard included? (With å ö ä) and does this use xt9 or some own word list?

See HERE post #162, as for the xt9 see the first post at the xda thread, however I can not turn on the auto suggesting on my Omnia. If you figure it out, let me know - please.

This keyboard seems great! Is there any way to turn off the "clicking" noise as each key is pressed is pressed? I didn't see it in the options....

EDIT: found it on the xda thread:
Open up Skin-01-global.txt in notepad and delete the following line:
ClickSound click-0.wav

Thanks!

Hello,

I was reporting earlier that the Blue and Glossy Skins do not work.

MOVED to post #1 - under "mod II" section

So, the only bug left on Omnia is that we can not turn on the word suggesting...

Hope it helps
Regards

Does it correctly switch the orientation for you with keyboard onscreen?
Because it does not for me.

I do not quite understand what you mean... I am not using the auto rotation, do it manually with the rotation mapped to a hardware button.
In my case when I type a message in portrait and hit the rotation button, the screen rotates and the keyboard gets "hidden" - but it is just a matter of pressing the keyboard softkey at the bottom taskbar and it is visible again... The same happens with the Samsung's keyboards active.
Hope it helps.

Touchpal is for sure a great keyboard, but in the new version (3.5) there is a limited national layouts available. For example, the one I am interested in (Polish) is missing (-:

I decided to let you know about FingerKeyboard, because I consider it very comfortable, it is free, but it is also veeeery easy to customize.
You can easly (with very little effort) add you own national signs/letters, emoticons, whole words or phrases assigned to a single button.
All you have to do is do modify the txt layout files (found in the Skins directory) - according to the instructions provided at the xda thread. Every key is described in the following way:

Quote

Key 50 5 44 62 2,2,8,2 key0 key1 w,£,W,é SC:w,SC:£,SC:W,SC:é

where the first part: "Key 50 5 44 62 2,2,8,2 key0 key1 w,£,W,é" describes the key's number and what is displayed on it, and the second part: "SC:w,SC:£,SC:W,SC:é" describes what will be typed in after the key is pressed in four "modes" (separated by a comma): "normal mode" with short and long press and the "Shift/Caps Lock mode" with short and long press. In the second part you find the prefixes: SC and SS. SC means that there will be one character typed in and the SC:x means there will be several characters typed in, where the x means the number of the characters.

So, if you want to add your own characters or phrases to an English layout, you need to midify the following files: "skin-02-wqvga-land-01-eng.txt" and "skin-02-wqvga-port-01-eng.txt".

Below, you will find a little example... I modified the English layout in Caps lock mode, adding to the letter "S" phrase "Regards", to the letter "D" an example email address and to the letter "F" an example phone number:



Below you will find the modified strings in the txt file:

Quote

Key 37 39 22 31 1,1,4,1 key0 key1 s,CSCHEME.Smile2,S,Rgr SC:s,AC:Smile2,SC:S,SS:7Regards
Key 61 39 22 31 1,1,4,1 key0 key1 d,CSCHEME.Smile3,D,w@g SC:d,AC:Smile3,SC:D,SS:18whatever@gmail.com
Key 85 39 22 31 1,1,4,1 key0 key1 f,CSCHEME.Smile4,F,555 SC:f,AC:Smile4,SC:F,SS:12+48555555555

This way you can have typed in your name, signature or a phone number you send sms's pretty often to - with one click.

I hope it sounds clear to you guys, I am not the best teacher out there :-)
Hope it helps

Check your file "skin-00-sheme-BlackRed.txt" in the Program Files/FingerKeyb/Skins directory.
It should be like this:

Quote

CScheme Name BlackEdition

CScheme GfxDir BlackEd
CScheme FontNormal ffffff Tahoma 18 700
CScheme FontHold b3b3b3 Tahoma 10 700
CScheme FontSelected efefef Tahoma 21 900
CScheme FontSelHold efefef Tahoma 15 500
CScheme BgColor 000000
CScheme SelectedOffset 5
CScheme SelectedOpacity 220

This is working for me perfectly

I mean that keyboard layout is not changing on auto-rotation. Neither its hidden, it tries to display landscape keyboard layout in portrait or vice versa.

Out of curiosity I've just checked the auto rotation on my Omnia, and it is working fine - just the same as with manual rotation. When the keyboard is visible and I rotate the screen, it gets hidden and when I press the keyboard softkey it appears in the correct layout (portrait or landscape).
Maybe it is ROM specific in your case? Are you using any additional application for rotation (like the one for Manila users)? Maybe that is your case?
Can not help you on this - I am not the developer, just a regular user.
You can go to the XDA thread and report the bug to the developers.
Sorry, I could not help.

Same Problem....
Anyone found any solution?

**EDIT
I reinstalled the program. Instead of replacing the files, I just manually edited the corresponding files and it worked. Almost no editing at all.

Forget the rules. You and others shouldn't steal anyway.

For God's sake, the thing is on sale for half price right now -- $13. That's a cheap lunch. I'm trying it out right now, and if I like it enough (which doesn't take much at that price), I'll buy it.

I would urge anyone else that likes this keyboard to do the same, supporting the developer. I don't work for free, and I'll tell you, I'd be spittin' nails mad if people stole my work from me.
