I am having a problem setting all the quick keys. It seems that the leftmost quickkey can not be set and brings up a virtual keyboard window with symbols.
I tried super wiping the rom and doing a fresh install but it still doesnt work.
Does anyone else have this problem and possibly tell me how to fix it?

What build are you running? I remember there being an issue with one of the nightlies where the quick keys were off by one (left most wouldn't work, second one launched what the first one should have, etc.)

I'm running Cm 7.1 RC1 and that is the exact problem I have been having. I have been searching for a solution on the forums but haven't come up with anything.
Does anyone have an answer to this?
any updates?
coming from a lg eve is really upsetting not to have arrow keys!
Dude you should reflash. And why RC1? Why not stable??

Is there a way on the hardware keyboard to get the numbers (and the other Fn characters) by long pressing the keys?
Used the search, used Google, but either I'm using the wrong keywords or it doesn't exist.
I would like to know if this is possible too because I know you.can do this with the virtual keyboard

Are Evilcuber and I the only ones interested in this, or are we the only ones stupid enough not to find out how to do it?
I would like to know it too

Bump and hoping somebody has the answer...
You could try a Sense ROM. I know Virtuous Sense 2.0 does this, though there are some other long-pressing problems.
Yep, I use Virtual Sense 2.0.0 and there you can get to the numbers and other FN-characters by holding the respective key. But you have to have a Desire Z or G2 to use that ROM. I like it a lot, because it's based on the latest Stock-ROM providing you Android 2.3.3 with automatic smart overclocking and other Features.
And I personally haven't experienced and other long pressing problems so far...

Hmm, I have a Desire Z, but to flash a different ROM just to get the long-press function...
I'm running CM 7, and I really like that. Maybe I should Virtual Sense.
But if it would be possible under Cyanogen, I would be happy
-edit- Oh, you meant Virtuous Sense. That's why I couldn't find it
Weekday-bump!
Weekend-bump!
I want this feature too.
It is not available in virtuous unity 1.31.0
i have no idea how to do so even though i am interested to do so..
troublesome to keep on pressing the FN button with another finger

[Q] The Bogmonster - I have a virtual keyboard working in ICS Beta 3r3.1 & Beta 4r1
Hi all,
First post so excuse the NooBness!
Ok I've just installed the [BETA 3r3.1]Desire S ICS AOSP PORT|WORKING! rom on my DZ- having great fun playing with it - amazed so much of it actually works so soon.
My question is this, from what I can see (don't crucify me if I've missed a post somewhere) everyone is complaining about the lack of the virtual touch keyboard for number entry etc?
Well I have one working! (in portrait mode only at the minute) am I the only one?
Keep up the great work devs!
I've been following it pretty close and haven't seen anyone that has a working v-keyboard. What steps did you take? Install certain applications? Flash a certain zip/kernel?
I smell a troll.

How did you do it?

I read on another post that someone had tried to install the ROM as an upgrade from a CM7 build so I also gave it a try (it sort of works for most apps but breaks others) but I found that it had kept my HTC_IME modded keyboard already installed on my CM7 nightly and that in portrait mode the keyboard did actually work!
I decided to see if it would work on a full wipe install also so I did a superwipe G2+ and then install the apk's for ES file explorer and then my HTC_IME keyboard.
Enabling the keyboard in the normal way, then on the first couple of tries you have to select the keyboard from the notification area manually but after that it works ok.
The spell checking marks every work as wrong but i don't normally use that anyway.
but it works.
A few more screenshots
A few more screenshots of the HTC_IME keyboard working.
Still only portrait (but with the phys keybrd available it's not an issue) but fully usable - voice input works fine too.
If anybody else want to try it I've attached the keyboard apk as well.
Thanks

Just tried this and it kinda works. Rebooting to see if it sticks.
Edit: get force close when trying to use auto fill. Turn it off and it works a charm. As stated only in portrait.

Thank you very much, it has worked.
does it work with any other keyboard or is it strictly the modded one?

I did try Swiftkey X as well as the HTC_IME but Swiftkey seemed to have problems popping up, and I prefer the HTC one myself anyway
OdieSam reports he's now fixed the built-in soft keyboard for the next Beta.
I'll probably stick with the HTC as it's my standard one though.
All that's needed are a fixed camera, reliable Wifi and SD USB mounting and it's pretty much a workable ROM
Has anyone got handcent working reliably on it yet though?
hi again all,
does anyone having problems with the keyboard ? sometimes you can't press the letter "a" and "k" unless you restart the device again..

I've never had any problems with the stock keyboard, an alternative is Swype beta if you like Swyping or Swiftkey X if you like typing like normal.

Place the keyboard on the phone's internal storage.
never really occured to me. never had that problem with stock froyo...i think. got used to the idea of moving apps to sd. and i almost forgot that i have installed custom mtd partitions just a while ago.
thanks and regards,
I always start with a preemptive apology if this has been posted elsewhere (I searched hard, but sometimes I end up getting chastised)
First, specs of the culprit phone:
HTC Desire Z (T-Mobile G2) Running CM7 Stable.
Anyway! I have been enjoying my G2 since the day I upgraded from my day one G1. I am familiar with rooting, but not an expert with the android system. Something has always bothered me on the G2 with CM7. After rooting and flashing my top row of buttons do not input the correct numbers when forced into a numerical entry only (e.g. I want to dial with the flip out keyboard.) With the stock rom if I push the button that is "Q" and "1" in the dialer it would input a 1, but after rooting and flashing all the numbers flip around.
Specifically:
pushing Q-W-E-R-T-Y-U-I-O-P should output 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-0, instead it is 7-9-3-7-8-9-8-4-7-6. If I push alt, and then the number it works correctly.
I realize there are other ways to input the numbers (onscreen keyboard), but this is bothering me.
Any input, help, theories, etc... would be appreciated.
just tested on cm7 elitemod, same here although if you hadn't mentioned it I never would have known!
if it really bothers you I'm sure it is a cm7 issue, you could try and find another rom with a different base and see if that works or you would have to remap the buttons to the stock phone app (?) to get it to work, I'm sure there is a fix but couldn't tell you the exact steps
also you could report it to cyanogen if the team really cares about gingerbread still maybe rc3 will have a fix thanks to your bug report

It's mimicing a touch tone phone so that when the listed number is 800-555-HELL you can type that and you'll get the proper numbers (eg. 800-555-4355)
Sent from my HTC Vision using xda app-developers app
now that makes perfect sense, not a bug at all I guess but rather a neat feature! sorry but if you report this to cm they will not care as I assume it is all as intended!
if you really want to not hit alt you'll have to have to remap yourself

Hi,
I do not have the access to post in that forum, so I want to just do a check here, does anyone have this similar problem.
ROM : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1945441
Problem: Trackpad no longer works in latest v3.0
V3.0 is all and good, the OS I have been waiting for my desire (for 3 years I dare say) However, the track pad is not working. Anyone have this similar problem or is there something I don't know about that I should be doing.
Thanks!
Hi anybody with the above mentioned rom care to chime in? The ROM is great FYI I have been using it for months. Been thinking about getting another HTC desire to flash it to this rom for my mom.
I don't usually use the track pad, but just tested and it seems ok

Sorry was busy for a few days, forgot about this thread, yeah I always do full wipe, not sure what I did but unchecking custom actions and then reboot... suddenly the track pad works again. I tried to recreate the problem by checking the custom actions, couldn't reproduce it... maybe it's just my track pad being dirty after 3 years? dunno. Anyway it works again, thanks for taking time to notify me.
Also... the link to the new work... I think I cannot test alpha builds... I really need my phone. but I will donate again if I move to new version haha, his work is great!
p/s anyone kind enough to explain what is the main difference at least between this new work and existing one? I'm kind of a noob and the last time I tried to read a cyanogenmod nightly changelog I almost fainted. Incremental builds from VJ I can understand, the rest... are totally alien to me, even finding the CM changelog was a challenge!
Just FYI I decided to try out the install a2sd from terminal with the Y Y Y command, and then when I tried to revert it back to the Y N Y setting, all my settings/sms/data was gone. So caveat emptor... or maybe you guys already know this, I for one did not.
Anyway now it's my HOME button that has lost functionality, the trackpad is ok... bummer... I didn't know how much I used it until it was gone. Even the settings under System > Hardware keys > Enable Custom Actions did now show a Home Key button (just has a Home key (long press) option)
er... help? I have restarted a few times... doggone it. I want my home button back!

I reflashed the ROM everything works now, I guess I was lucky never hard this experience before. I guess next time I should have a nandroid back up.
For anyone that just want an idea of what's the difference VJ has posted it himself. Please find notes below ty.
For actual differences between 4.1.2 and 4.2.1 google yourself.
But the improvements from my CM10 v3.0 to CM10.1 v4.2.1 is that:
1. The games which was not able to play in either any of the Jelly Bean version is playing now and better than GB ROM's.
2. Notification lights works
3. FM Works
4. Much Smoother
5. Video play back is very good (No more flickering)
6. Improved HWA
and find out yourself....
What's not working yet?
Same as Evervolv 4.2.1 (We fixed Bluetooth, Notification lights before them)
for me trackpad works fine
