HTC Keyboard with voice input - Desire General

Hi,
Has anyone really tried this?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=624416
At first, one of the user here said it won't install because HTC IME keyboard is in the ROM.
But that's (might) not true as the user below said:

No it works fine. I'm using it on an unrooted 32B Magic, installed just like any other app.

But first, you must install/setup the voice data via "text-to-voice" setting.
If this works, it would be awesome!
UPDATE: I found HTC Magic does not use HTC Sense UI by default So, it might not work then ... or I really don't understand all this !

It works on the phones that don't have HTC_IME in the ROM.
I used it on my G1 and it was fine, but you can't install it on Desire until it's rooted and we can get rid of default HTC_IME.

AOSP-Eclair-2.0 HTC Touch Input Localisation

Hello. Is there any chance to have HTC Touch Input (from HTC Hero 1.5 default rom) with national alphabet and symbols instead of Android keyboard? When I install it, there is no Russian language, even after editing xml file and rebooting.

I have LeedrOiD MOD V1.6 ROM
I need aplication Quick Lookup version 7. Do you know where one might find?
I would've expected that in the stock Sense FroYo ROMs by default (I haven't tried them). Are you sure this app isn't meant to be included in your ROM by default?
You can extract the .apk from any ROM that has it after UnRAR and adb push it to your phone. It comes on Sense devices by default (I'm unsure if it's on stock Android).

so I found the quicklookup.apk in the system/app directory but it won't launch as its own program. Anyone know how to make this work as a shortcut??

[Q] increase max number of windows in browser on rooted phone?

My Desire limits max number of browser windows to 4, and does so on every ROM I've tried. I'm rooted - is there any hack I can apply to increase this? I know Dolphin HD and other browsers don't have this problem but I kind of like the HTC browser apart from this issue.
Anyone found a fix?

it's hardcoded in the browser (com.android.browser.TabControl.canCreateNewTab())
shouldn't be a big deal to increase it
which rom are you currently using?
Moved to Q&A.
On hero, it was limited to 4 tabs in sense, but on CM6 base, I have roughly 8 open in the background all the time. I reckon you could hack the above value, not sure how well the sense browser would perform...

S'ok, no-one seems to have worked out how to do it on rooted devices either...!
8 tabs like on AOSP ROMs would be excellent. 4 tabs limit is with Sense ROMs and it is too few for my usage too.

Please find here the result of my homework given by The GREAT MASTER snq- !!!
Base on the Browser.apk you have in AuraxTSense 7.6.1, this one will allow you to go up to 15 tabs !
(It's now hard coded at 32, but after 15 I got an Out of memory... should be enough anyway)
For that first time, it is zip-aligned, but not signed.
So I will assume that you know what do with (push with adb, in recovery if you don't have S-OFF).
As soon as I learn to make a flashable zip, I will update it.
Enjoy !!
Or just feel free to insult me if it doesn't work flawlessly for you...
Edit: backup your bookmarks, just in case...
Edit2 : finally no prob with bookmarks
EDIT 3 : updated .apk (back to original png for back and forward)
... Testing.
That works perfect on HTC 2.2 with root! Over 12 tabs now opening fine in the browser. I just removed the odex file and everything worked. It requires 300-400KB ish more than the stock browser. Thank you guys

The stock Browser.apk was 788KB and the one you attached that I installed was 1095KB. I don't mind
The browser would just crash at the start until I removed Browser.odex. Ever since, it works perfectly.

to /data/app ?
wasn't the original in /system/app ?
this what i use to install :
- mounting /system/app r/w with Root Explorer, and checking Browser.apk is there
- then following with adb :
Code:
adb push ATS_Browser_zipaligned.apk /system/app/Browser.apk
adb reboot
...
working fine on mine

Browser.apk 1 133 173
ATS_Browser_zipaligned.apk 1 121 159
mine is even lighter
Can someone post a step by step dummys guide on how to install this, I have soff etc but don't know anything about adb any help would be much appreciated

redclasse, I'm kind of sure that this works with EVERY ROM?
Also redglasse:
u have 6 layouts and 13 keypad files? Why is this?
I pulled 14 layouts and 14 keypads from my phone?
http://www.filedropper.com/keyfilesfromscandidz
Is there overlap or did u miss some of them?
So could someone sticky this and make the guide to apply any rom?
(I tested G2 stock and confirm)
In theory it does. Also fixes the 4 capacitive buttons

[Q] Install HD Skin?

Hi everybody, we can install any skin for Desire HD?
Look at this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1048894
Of course you can install one, but after that you can't use or uninstall it! So please don't try out Desire HD themes on Wildfire S. Talking from my bitter experience...
Thanks

No problem, you are welcome.
Does anyone have any idea which uninstaller I should use to remove this bloat? The Desire HD skin I installed is not listed in the Skin picker; Settings-> Applications doesn't show any installed skin, neither those from HTC Hub nor the one I tried to use. Or could you please give me the file path to where the sense skins are stored? (HTC Wildfire S, Android 2.3.3, Sense 2.1, Stock ROM, not rooted)
Thanks!

use astro file manager...go to where u'r .apk file is stored...click it and select " app manager " there will be an option for uninstall and open..select uninstall..i also tried these HD skins and uninstalled it using this method..
Big thanks for the tip, sunnyhj. It worked perfectly for me, too.
Anyway it would be a good thing if someone intended to port those beautiful Sense skins to Wildfire S and 320x480 screen resolution...
