[Q] HTC_IME_mod not working with Warm 2.2 release 5

I just recently reflashed to Warm 2.2 release 5 and now I can't get the warm themed HTC_IME_Mod to work. I have tried swype and other keyboards, but I still really prefer the customizable HTC_IME_MOD keyboard. All help on this will be much appreciated. I realize this has been brought up before, but no one seems to have addressed it yet.

This could be a number of things! Beginning with the HTC IME mod.apk that you're trying to install not being signed to the rom itself.........What I would do is this!
Post this question in this thread

Is the thread for the rom you have flashed and you have a 99.9% chance of getting your question answered quickly!

Unfortunately I have not yet reached the "10 post requirement" to post in that forum yet... Also, multiple people asked similar questions on this subject in that particular thread and it was never addressed. I do appreciate your input though.

What happens when you try to install it? Does it install and then not work or force close,or does it not install at all? You're rather vague, by saying "it doesn't work". Is it the keyboard that is linked in Myns first post? What are the steps you took to try installing it?

I used the update.zip listed on Myn's thread and installed it like any other flashable app. When I select it as the input source for my keyboard it begins to repeatedly force close without ever even displaying.

Okay, got ya. Now I know where you stand. If I were presented with that problem, I would first try clearing cache and dalvik from recovery. If that doesn't fix it, I would uninstall the keyboard, reboot, wipe cache and dalvik, then try again. I've never had any issues with the keyboard before, but this is what id try if I did.

I will definitely give all of that a shot. Though this will come off as amatuerish, I'm going to ask anyways: How do I uninstall the keyboard? I have used Astro to locate the program, then selected it to open the app manager where I am presented with the option to uninstall it. I select unistall and it says that it is unable to uninstall. I can delete the update.zip, but that has no effect either. Also, does clearing the cache and dalvik have any negative impact on the ROM or any data from any of my other programs?

To keep it simple, just reflashing the keyboard should over write itself, so no real need to actually uninstall I guess.
However if you did want to uninstall, you'll need a root level file explorer, preferably Root Explorer, but you can use ES file explorer as a free alternative if you don't have root explorer. The keyboard will be in the /system/app folder, as htc ime or something. Now, its possible that there could be some libs associated with the keyboard that need to be removed , but I wouldn't know without looking at the file. Either way, probably just reflash the keyboard after wiping cache and dalvik cache. That will be the easiest to try.
Also, you're sure the keyboard.you're using is for RLS5? I can't recall if there were compatibility issues between rls4 and rls5
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

Thanks for the quick responses. I'll just try reflashing after wiping the cache/dalvik as you suggested. I would not say that I am positive about the compatibility, The keyboard I'm attemting to install is listed in the optional add-ons for release 5 though. I know a few others had this problem, but I never saw any kind of response from Myn or anyone else regarding it. I'm trying to adapt to the swype keyboard, as it may be my only choice moving forward (short of reflashing back to release 4), but I find it somewhat awkward. I suppose with enough time I will get over it, but I would sure like to try to get the HTC IME mod back if possible...

I hate the htc keyboard, lol I can't stand the arrows. I always hit them by accident. Even the one without the arrows sucks for me. Just don't like it. Have you tried any of the gingerbread keyboards? I like them better, and have an easier time typing on it. I suggest trying one out, if you haven't yet. Once im on my computer, I could give you a couple keyboards to try, or at least links to check out.

Any time,
Awesome, glad to help! As a rule of thumb, to be safe, wipe cache and dalvik cache before you flash anything at all. I suggest a full wipe before flashing a rom, always.
Take care.

This keyboard does not have the dumb arrows either. Instead it lets you use gestures for several things (ie: shifting to/from CAPS, skipping to beginning/end of the word, hiding the keyboard) as well as the volume buttons on the side of the phone to move the cursor left/right. It also has a quick key for emoticons...(lame I know, but I use them often enough that it is very convenient). Again, thanks for the assistance!

You're welcome. And yup, I remember using that keyboard on myns, before I converted to the gb keyboard. I did like being able to use the volume rocker to move the cursor, that was convenient. I just love the scrollable toolbar on the gb keyboard, and the layout a bit better too. Thankfully there are tons of options with android, so everyone can use a keyboard that suits their own preference. Love choices.

has anyone gotten swype beta installed successfully on MIUI or am I s.o.l.?

I'm having a licensing issue on MIUI. I can get to the step that asks me to
"enable swype" but since MIUI is missing the whole "enable keyboard" thing, it won't let me get past that step and it just tells me swype is unlicensed and I can never use it :C Any ideas?
by the by, it feels so good to have root again!

What do you mean? I have installed Swype beta with no problems at all. First, when you install Swype, do not press get license when you are finished.
To start over, uninstall Swype Installer and Swype completely. Login to beta.swype.com, resend the download email to yourself, open the email with your Evo and go to the download installer link, download the installer, launch the installer, login with your swype account when it asks you for login info, select prerelease version (as of today) is the most updated, download, install, finish.
In MIUI, it should be the default keyboard already, but if not, press and hold down in any text box (sms message), select input method, select swype. If swype keyboard is then there but not working, reboot your phone and it should be working.
Many people are downloading today, so if the download fails, just keep trying.
G'luck.

Works fine on mine.

I had it working on mine, but I uninstalled it because I didn't really care for it. I use SwiftKey X instead, Swype got on my nerves because I like to use proper punctuation and spelling and some words just did not want to happen. Unfortunately I can't remember how I got it working on MIUI.

I need to check that Swiftkey X out, but my Swype is part of my TB Backup, so it just restores and works when I restore all my apps/data

what apps have you removed after root?

Just wanting to start a list as to which apps/files have been been checked to see if after removing won't mess up the phone. I want to debloat this as much as possible
I've removed all at&t apps except smart wifi
removed Polaris office, live wallpapers, Facebook, city ID
want to remove YP but it says LG YP and looks like there is some link to it from the contact book that may break, if someone has already done that please post.
Not going to touch any Google apps yet since looks like some are getting security errors on reboot
what else have you guys deleted and haven't had any issues
has anyone deleted that other setting app for tabbed view... May just disable it since I don't really need two next to each other

You have to root it and then use titanium backup to remove or freeze apps.
Better to freeze them first to make sure you don't delete something that will cause issues later.
Hope this helps.

Not a good idea at all until we have usable recovery. As linked above, some of the apps are intertwined tightly within the lg security and you will lock down your phone if you remove the wrong app. The linked poster removed Google Movies and that borked his phone.
Freezing is fine for me for now. It is not as if the bloat is causing lag, this phone is fast.

The security issue seems to be happening if Google apps were tampered. I've removed every AT&T app except myAT&T along with the Browser and Email app and even the EasySettings, and haven't gotten the security screen.

I removed most of the ATT Apps. Also got rid of LG YP. All it did was make it so the yp link in contacts doesn't work. Just an error message, no force closing.
Also added 4.2 keyboard and camera as well as SVoice. Replaced LGs weird browser with stock ICS. Loving this thing so far.

I've frozen everything with AT&T and YP in it, so far no problems. I'm also using everything I restored from my SGSIII. Apex, SwiftKey X, Handcent, etc...

How'd you get the stock browser to work? This is the only piece I can't get to work. It always force closes when trying to open it.

I got an AOSP 4.0.4 browser apk, moved it to system/apps via root browser. Renamed the lg browser to browser.bup (just to keep a stock backup copy) wiped dalvik and rebooted. Permissions need to be set to rw-r-r.
Hope that helps ya.

No go, moved it to /system/app, chmod 644, deleted /data/dalvik-cache and rebooted. Still Force closes. Any chance you can share your APK? Mine is supposed to be from the GSM Galaxy Nexus but you never know...
EDIT: Nevermind, just grabbed a Browser.apk off some random CyanogenMod 9 ROM. Didn't like it moved to /system/app, but took it fine when sideloaded as a regular APK. Go figure.
Wow, Google should've kept this browser. It blows Chrome out of the water in terms of smoothness and functionality.

Did it the same way as mentioned for the browser. Could never get photo sphere working, but i like the interface of the 4.2 camera so much more.

I once had a lg nitro hd and after removing all the bloat i safely could i found that my battery life was amazing. Has anyone experienced that on this phone too?

We should make a list of what we are freezing/removing.
Also, I've been trying to get the browser trick to work all morning... no dice. I can't even get it to show up. Had my friend send me browser.apk from his AOKP rom, and just realized its Jelly Bean.... might be the problem. Haven't tried the camera trick yet..
EDIT:
Ok I got the browser working. Used CM9 rom. Its sooooo fast. I've uninstalled Firefox, and Chrome... Now on to find the camera from 4.2

Ok, I can't get the 4.2 camera working to save my life. It FCes everytime I try it. The gallery is working fine. Used the files from here:

[Q] Keyboard Keeps Resetting To Samsung 3

Maybe it's since the JB upgrade, but my keyboard keeps resetting to the Default Samsung 3, from Swiftkey 3. Could also have been from installing the Swiftkey Flow beta.
Anyone else experience this, and what can I do to stop it.

I think if you go to the buglist at swiftkey.net you'll find you aren't alone. I'm using the Swiftkey Flow beta and this problem hasn't occurred...yet. You can turn of the Flow feature and it becomes a regular Swiftkey keyboard.

I use Smart Keyboard Pro off of the market and the same thing keeps happening to me. By that I mean I don't use swype and my settings keeps rolling back to the regular keyboard.

I've found that these problems can sometimes can be fixed by uninstalling and reinstalling the keyboard.

Could you describe how this is happening? Does it switch keyboards after you use a certain app, or does it just switch at random times? One thing you could try is to disable all other keyboards under applications. This way, the phone has to keep using your keyboard.

Happens for me after a reboot. Always goes back to Samsung keyboard. Once I change to SwiftKey, it stays that way until the next reboot. As others have said, seems like a bug between JB and SwiftKey 3 (without Flow beta)

It happens every time I restart and then it would happen randomly while using the phone. I thing Task Manager by Rythm Soft was killing Smart Keyboard but I got it on the ignore list now; and so far it seems limited to the restart. It's not possible to disable Swype or the Samsung Keyboard. They are greyed out on the list.
To the O.P. you should check any task managers to be sure Swype isn't being killed.

Same thing is happening to me. Always after a restart it falls back to the Samsung Keyboard.

If you guys are rooted make a back up of the Samsung keyboard then delete it. From system/app i know that worked on the early sprint JB leaks

Anyone try this, and what does it default to if you do remove the Samsung Keyboard? I have several inputs, WiiMote, PS3, etc. If I have to keep changing the default back to Swiftkey, then this option would get annoying.

This is a known bug with JB 4.1.x.....
Swiftkey has it mentioned in a bug list as well as Google in a bug list...
It has something to do with apps getting installed differently and storing app data differently with JB. When a phone reboots the storage location for that app's data is not mounted or available right away so the app can't load and therefore the phone switches to the default keyboard.
Happens with a few other apps like AT&T Vooicemail Viewer.
The work-around is to root the phone, backup the app with Titanium Backup, uninstall the app, then restore it without data. Then set the keyboard as default and it should stay that way after re-boots.
Good luck!

Might wait for Google or Swiftkey to fix the bug. If I restore without the data, then I lose all the words Swiftkey has learned.

This is really odd. A few weeks ago I downloaded the SwiftKey Flow Beta and this problem disappeared. That is, after a reboot my default keyboard would stay on SwiftKey Flow Beta. But yesterday SwiftKey released the official version 4 with Flow integrated. And now the problem is back - reboot makes Samsung Keyboard as default.
So what did the Beta do that was so special that it would stay after a reboot??

It's a change in the way Jellybean handles how Google Play apps are loaded during boot process, since they happen after the keyboard gets loaded, it reverts to default.

correct. since the play store installs apps in a location (on your JB device) that is not immediately scanned during the first part of boot up, thats why the stock keyboard is loaded. however, to fix this on my wife's unrooted/stock S3, i found the actual swiftkey apk then downloaded and installed it onto the phone. this placed the apps info in the correct storage location that is seen on boot up. i do not condone downloading apps you have not paid for however i did this for her as she and i have both paid for swiftkey on all our phones/tablets when it initially released on the play store. i dont have this swiftkey issue on my s3 as it is running a custom rom. cheers

Sorry if this was already covered...but I read a post at the Swiftkey site that the issue is with Paid apps on JB. Not all paid apps of course...but some paid apps like Swiftkey install to this special storage location that is not available soon enough during the boot process.
The 4.x Swiftkey beta was not a paid app so it worked...now that the beta is released it is a paid app and the Swiftkey 4.x release in Google Play has the issue again on JB just like 3.x did.

For those of you with the SwiftKey 4 reboot/default issue

SwiftKey has released a statement on the issue of the keyboard reverting to stock on a reboot. It is a Google Play issue, strangely (but their beta worked, so...huh?) Anyway, the statement is here.

Had this problem with both Swiftkey and ADW Launcher. Froze the stock keyboard, Swype and the TouchWiz Home using Titanium, now it all works as it should.
