Keyboard questions for the devs! - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm not sure if a dev will see this (hopefully someone will), but is it possible to put the Android 2.2 keyboard from the N1 onto the Sense ROMs? I personally cannot stand the Sense keyboard at all, it just feels terrible, and doesn't seem very good IMO. I know on the Fresh ROM he had an input called HTC_IME mod or something along those lines, and although it looked like the Sense keyboard it was truly awesome (just like the 2.2 keyboard) if anyone at all knows if I could possibly put the HTC_IME mod onto the new 2.2 Sense Froyo or the N1 keyboard on the new 2.2 it would be greatly appreciated. Sorry if this is at all a noob question.

[Q]Is it possible........

Is it possible to get the touchflo cube ported to the EVO? I searched the forums but came up empty handed, I would love to see the cube icorporated into a rom if its possible.
You mean something like this?

I tried on my evo when I was running 2.1
Not sure if it will work on 2.2 but It does have the Cube transition.
Exactly what I would like to see ported to the EVO. Also would like to stay with the stock launcher, but would go adw if the cube was for it.

[q] Skyraider 3.0 camera

I really dislike a few things about sense, however I cant deny that my phone has been running very good with skyraider. Previously I was running cyanogen and I was loving the pure vanilla, but like I said so far skyraider is running alot better. My question is: is there a way I can get the evo or cyanogen camera on my phone now? The stock sense camera is horrible.
I also would love to have the dailer and messaging from vanilla if possible. If I have to push something through abd, can someone please refresh my memory with a step by step process how to do it. The unrevoked programs spoiled me so much I forgot how to access it.
Thanks

Gingerbread sense is out - who will be the first to port it to our devices?

The version for HUASHAN (HD2ish Chines phone from what I briefly read...) is out and I came across a thread where you can actually download the dump files...
Here's the thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=955919
I'm really wondering when the first modded ROM will be available for our beloved Desire
Right now I can't decide whether to use a Froyo Sense ROM or a Minimal AOSP Gingerbread one... This would be the ROM that would make it a lot easier for me. I lev how Gingerbread is behaving (Right now using redux). It's darn quick.
A video about the new sense and its features. Not a big deal but gingerbread beneath it would be a big deal...

Hopefully someone is or will be working on this.
Already had a look at the file and although some HTC apps are there there are no widgets so don't know how complete it is. It's a test build so likely to be buggy anyway
Plus this is already in a thread in General

[Q] rom with new gingerbread keyboard

Hi all im a noob at the whole flashing roms thing.
i have flashed leedroids newest rom 3.0.3 which as i understand is based on the leaked gingerbread.
i thought i read somewhere that gingerbread was supposed to get a revamped keyboard but leedroid still has the same keyboard as froyo.
so my question is
are there any roms out there that has the new revamped keyboard?

as seen in the above link
Sorry, not exactly what you're looking for but I like LeeDroid ROM so in an effort to get you to keep it....
You can download it from the market. It's called something like "Keyboard from Gingerbread"
thanks i like leedroid but as i said i am just new to this so am going to try other roms 1st before settling on one. i was just wondering if anyone knew of one that had gingerbread keyboard
If you are not fussed about sense try an AOSP ROM like CM7 Cyanogen.
The sense ROMs use the HTC keyboards.

sorry should have mentioned yea i like sense.
ive just tried a rom that was supposed to have sense 3.0 in but was a bit laggy so back on leedroid atm
It is a great ROM. But like I said, you could always download the Gingerbread Keyboard app. Not perfect but is one solution.
I always treat Sense ROM's as something you have to make sacrifices with (as a fan of non-sense ROMs) and that's why CM7 runs on my phone a LOT more often than LD's.
i tryed gingerbread keyboard but like swypekey which i previously used it has no navigation keys. i have settled on leedroid and am playing with different themes now.
i have also purchased thumb keyboard because it was the only keyboard with navigation keys that i could find.
thank you for your help

That thumb keyboard does look good.
Swift has arrow keys but they are in a sub section (pressing "alt").
Good luck with it all, sorry couldn't have been better news.
I didn't see them but I only tried the 1 month trial. I like this keyboard as it has the navigation keys and i like the number pad in landscape mode

[Q] Sense 2.1/3.0 Skin on Sense 3.0 ROM possible?

Hey all, quick question about skins.
I have just moved from a Sense 2.1/3.0 ROM to a pure sense 3D one (AceSMod007-3D)and I am really missing the "Metal" skin. Is there any way for me to easily import this skin to a 3D rom?
I thought by getting the Metal.apk from my 2.1/3.0 ROM and dropping it in the new ROM ZIP file (in sdext\app_s) that it might just work when I flashed the new ROM. The file is there, but the skin does not appear in the list, just the standard one, Blue Sky and Burgundy.
And advice on how I can achieve this?
Thanks in advance!
Nath.
Does anyone know if this is feasible?
Thanks,
Nath
Did you ever get a response/? I also miss this theme so much i am using Sebastiaans Sense 3.5 Rom and i dont like the themes....
