Missing keyboard - Hero, G2 Touch Android Development

Mmmmk so i am a complete newbie at this stuff! I just took the leap and rooted and Updated to MoDaCo's latest ROM, but now i am faced with a problem!
My keyboard seems to be non-exsistant! i can tap in the compose message box and what not.... but no keyboard will appear
As you can imagine this is a major problem.
Any help is greatly appriciated.
Cheers,
Nick

Have you tried longpressing the input field and selecting the input method?
* EDIT: If that does not help maybe this tip introduced here: http://betterandroid.wordpress.com/2009/05/24/introducing-better-keyboard-for-android/ will help. *

Swype files for XXJPK (swedish input)

(To Forum Admins: I've posted the very same thing this morning but it disappeared -- presumbably because of the DB crash. Sorry if this wasn't the case and/or this was better placed in the General Forum)
Hello all,
I need a bit of help
I've flashed and rooted the XXJPK as in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=790686
The problem I have is that after I rooted the phone I've done a not-so-smart thing
Without even thinking I replaced the "/system/app/Swype.apk" and "/system/lib/libSwypeCore.so" with the multi-language files from JP1 (from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7412595&postcount=73)
To my unpleasant surprise now Swype crashes
Goes without saying that -- in good old hacking tradition -- I didn't backup the original files first
So, the cry for help is:
1) Can some kind soul post the original (above two) Swype files in the XXJPK so at least I have a functioning Swype (even if it doesn't have the swedish language....)
2) Even better -- if a fellow swede (or scandinavian... ) that managed to get the swedish input in Swype in XXJPK, can you please post the files (apk / library) you are using ?
Thanks a bunch in advance for the help !!!
Moving on....
I've managed to find a Swype WVGA version with support for the swedish language (google: Swype WVGA svenska)
I removed the previous existing Swype-relevant files:
/system/app/Swype.apk
/system/app/Swype.opex
/system/lib/libSwypeCore.so
After a reboot I managed to installed the .apk version above.
The showstopper now is that I cannot switch to this input method: When I hold on a text entry field and selecting "Input Method" only "Samsung Keyboard" shows up (but no Swype)
Any input ?
(And applogies to the forum admins as this become off-topic for ROM development -- however, the fact that "Swype" is missing from "input method" should be vaguley relevant . Thanks for understanding)

I use the the JP1 file. You find the link to download on Swedroid. Its in the Galaxy S forum.Some thread about Q&A. Good Luck
It worked for me with JPK several times
I found the answer in the mean time (posting here for the record):
Under: Settings -> Locale and text activate Swype; change the settings as desired (language, etc).
Switch to Swype via the "Input Method" radio button selection when inputing text (tap and hold on a text input box).
Hope this will help others as well
Well this guy, DocRambone, most surdenly knows how to do it. Cause he did in his modded ROM, the superlite version. I just checked Swype settings again and it has swedish, danish, norway, uk, us etc. - all the languages are there.
Try out his ROM - so far it's working really perfect

Samsung i551 callisto_keypad3.kcm.bin file

Hi XDA guys I recently upgraded my samsung i551 from 2.2 to 2.3.4, everything works fine except I have a slight bug in my physical keyboard settings. my (?) and my (,) appear as other characters. The only fix I was told was to replace my
“sec_keypad.kcm.bin” file with “callisto_keypad3.kcm.bin” from the original 2.2 froyo. I don't have my old files with me anymore and I was wondering if anyone had a copy, I would greatly appreciate the help, thank you.

[SOLVED] Right to Left

Hi,
I'm using the official 2.3.5 Rom unlocked and rooted.
I'm not interested in flashing a custom ROM.. but flashing a correction..
I wonder if anyone knows a solution for how to make the "Right to Left" corrections for any language required it.
My phone have the fonts.. but still writes it from left to right - and in that case all the numbers are written in the opposite way..
Thanks in advance!
Hi does anyone knows if Arabic stock rom support right to left correction?
Thanks
Update:
Arabic Stock ROM supports right to left correction for Hebrew too.
Link for the ROM:
